Wolf cull; both sides of the science

Attempting to save endangered Mountain Caribou through a wolf cull is a complex, difficult issue C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor

The decision by the provincial Ministry of Environment to try to protect the dwindling South Selkirk Mountain Caribou herd by taking out predators — namely wolves — is generating a lot of reaction. The Ktunaxa Nation and Northern Lights Wolf Centre have already responded, the former stating that the intention to shoot wolves from helicopters is a narrow and short term approach, while the latter called it morally indefensible. However, others believe it is the only solution. Bob Jamieson, a wildlife biologist well-known in the East Kootenay, and a member of an ad hoc group of those who have lived and hunted elk in this valley for years, says he is concerned with the situation with predators and ungulates in its totality. He says he certainly understands the opposition to the plan — nobody wants to kill wolves — but does anyone want to lose the caribou either? Jamieson doesn’t buy that the caribou herd is habitat challenged. He says given the amount of

lichen each caribou consumes in a year, he doesn’t believe the 18 or so animals can’t find that forage over the many kilometres of the Salmo Creston higher elevations. “They are not habitat limited,” Jamieson said. “We are losing these animals to predation. Predators kill the old, the weak and the young. That’s the key, the young. Predation has a huge effect on calves.” Jamieson cites a study done in Yellowstone by doctoral student Shannon Barber-Meyer, in which 142 calves were collared. “100 calves died, three of disease and 97 from predators. Those are utterly astounding numbers. “We are collapsing ungulate populations all over the Rocky Mountains. We’ve gone from a predator poor to predator rich environment. We have completely changed the equation that wildlife managers have to deal with. “It’s difficult for people to understand the degree these ungulate populations are collapsing The whole thing is incredibly complex and difficult. The situation is very different from what it used to be and it’s coming home to roost with these mountain caribou.” John Bergenske of Wildsight has posted an interesting blog, along with Joe Scott of Conservation Northwest, on the Wildsight website, in which they offer a reluctant support of the wolf cull.

Two students of the Kimberley School of Archery made some noise at the Iron Man competition in Lethridge last week, walking away not with just gold medals but an equipment sponsorship. Jason Dekkers and Jessica Krewenchuk, both 16, beat adult shooters to win gold in the competition, which included a simulated hunting shoot as well as a traditional competitive shoot. Their results were so impressive that the archery company APA will now sponsor them, says coach Vladimir Kopecky, who picked up a bronze at the competition himself. The Kimberley Archery Club holds open shoots on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings, 7:30 p.m at Marysville School.

Justice Melnick: a storied career Melnick reflects on judicial career TRE VOR CR AWLEY

After a legal career spanning almost 50 years, Justice Tom Melnick is set to retire. If he had his way, he’d already be off the judicial bench and tending to his vegetable garden at his house outside Cranbrook, but there is one last project to wrap up before he, in his own words, fades away “like the mist drifting off into the trees.” Sitting as the only Supreme

Court justice in Cranbrook since 1990, Melnick is all but retired, save for his work as one of three panelists working on a preliminary report to identify any issues with B.C.’s electoral boundaries. Once the report is submitted to the legislature, it’s up to the MLA’s to suggest any amendments before it gets approved and cemented into law. His office, on the second floor of the Cranbrook Law Courts, is situated right behind Supreme Court chambers and overlooks Rotary Park. The hallways, carpeted with red,

Justice Tom Melnik is retiring after almost 50 years.

are lined with portraits of his predecessors, dating back to 1905. Melnick is currently working half-time to wrap up his work with the Electoral Boundaries Commission, but once he’s fully retired, it looks like there won’t be a Supreme Court justice replacement in Cranbrook for the immediate future, he said. “At the present time, no. That was an issue that was up in the air until the end of last summer, early September,” said Melnick. See MELNICK, page 4

Melnick reflects on years on the bench From page 1 “I think part of the reasoning behind that was that the volume of work in our court— and it’s not just Cranbrook, it’s largely throughout rural courts—is not as high as it once was.” That could be a sign of falling crime rates, or the expense at which it costs to run a jury trial, he added. If the work isn’t there, trial co-ordinators around the province will request Supreme Court judges—regardless of where they live—to run trials in other jurisdictions. That usually means presiding on trials in the larger population centres of the Lower Mainland. “For a full-time judge living here, it’d be tough, it is tough,” said Melnick. “But that’s not to say I’m not supportive of the idea of there being a judge here to replace me. “Quite frankly, I’ve told the bar, and I don’t mind repeating it, I think it’s a good idea. “I hope that circumstances are such, at one point, that there can be,

but apparently, right now, given the balance of where they need judge time, they just felt that it doesn’t warrant there being a full time judge here.” As it currently stands, if there is need for a Supreme Court judge, a trial-co-ordinator in Kamloops will schedule one, wherever there is one available in the province, to preside over matters in Cranbrook. Prior to serving as a full-time Supreme Court judge, Melnick worked as a lawyer, and ran his own practice working in criminal and civil cases. After obtaining his law degree at University of Western Ontario, he took a vacation out to Vancouver and promptly decided not to return to the Big Smoke, where he had wrapped up his articles. “Who in his right mind would stay in Toronto when they can move to Vancouver?” joked Melnick. He had plans to go to graduate school and wanted to work in the

B.C. Interior to save up some money, choosing Cranbrook as a compromise between civilization and a better paycheque. “I thought, ‘well, I’ll come to Cranbrook and work here for a year or two’,” said Melnick. “I met my wife here and somehow I never left. Never regretted it either.” His legal career consisted of working as a trial lawyer, both as a prosecutor and as defence counsel. Back in those days, there wasn’t a dedicated Crown counsel office, and he would often be contracted out as an ad-hoc prosecutor, working with a counterpart from the West Kootenays. Eventually, he moved away from criminal law and focused on civil matters, while keeping a wide berth from family law cases. “The ironic part of things, is once I got to be a judge,” said Melnick, “two of the areas I therefore ended up doing the most of was criminal law and family law, the two areas that—as my prac-

tice matured—I did the least of. “But that’s the way it goes.” Called to the bar in 1968, Melnick worked first for Graham and Company before moving on to become a partner with Melnick, Carlgren and Erickson in 1970. Ten years later, he joined Steidl, Kambeitz, Melnick and Donald as partner. Melnick headed to Vancouver for a brief stint in 1985 and was appointed the designation of Queen’s Counsel, a distinction that recognizes community service, advocacy and others in need of legal aid. In addition to working as a lawyer, he also served in various legal organizations such as president of the Kootenay Bar Association, chair of the Professional Standards Committee for the Law Society of B.C. and a member of the National Judicial Ethics Advisory Committee. In 1987, he returned to Cranbrook as a county court judge, before it

merged into the Supreme Court in July 1990. After 19 years as a lawyer, it was a sudden change to be on the other side of the judicial bench. “Probably the most significant change was that you’re on the receiving end, rather than the giving end. And you also have a different approach to a trial than you do when you’re a counsel,” said Melnick. “As a counsel, you do whatever you can legally do to secure the result favourable to the client. “You do consider both sides because you’d be dumb if you don’t look at what your opponent is doing and try to figure out how to deal with that. But you’re looking at that from a perspective of one side, because we have an adversarial system. “As a judge of course, you have to take those submissions from both sides, and the evidence from both sides and try to make sense of it and come out with a decision that, not balances it, because that’s not what

It was erroneously reported in Monday’s paper that the City would no longer thaw water lines electrically. In fact that was a recommendation in a report from Operations, but Council decided to accept the liability of electrical thaws and instructed that it be done as a last resort.

Residents may have to install a short section of Pex piping (non-conductive) to their plumbing to help control stray currents before the City attempts an electrically thaw. In the meantime, if you have experienced freezing pipes in the past, the City Operations department continues to advise that you let a tap run to avoid freezing.

you’re there for, you’re there to decide which way it goes, and that’s quite a different mental process.” Melnick was able to lean on his experience conducting jury trials as a lawyer when he transitioned to the bench, where he presided over many kinds of cases and criminal activity. One such case—R. vs Williams in 1992—involved a man who was convicted of first-degree murder in the death of a young woman in Golden. It was a significant case because it was just the second time in B.C. that DNA evidence was used in the pursuit of a conviction. “It was murder trial, and it was really interesting because DNA evidence was so new everywhere, particularly in Canada, that we had all of the experts from government labs coming to give evidence to educate everyone what DNA evidence was all about.,” said Melnick. “It was an extremely difficult case to prove, mostly circumstantial evidence that probably wouldn’t have been capable of proof without DNA evidence, but they found DNA evidence from him on her clothing and were able to tie it together, so that was an interesting one.” However, he presided over more than just criminal cases, and had a part to play in a political scandal in the mid-1990s, where the B.C.

Bennett and a company—Dorman Securities—for insider trading. While in Vancouver, Melnick was called down to the courthouse and asked to preside over an adjournment of a hearing between Bennett and the commission. Melnick ended up rejecting the adjournment, which allowed the commission to pursue an investigation of Bennett, his brother Russell, and Harbanse Singh Dorman, which eventually culminated in trading sanctions and payment of $1 million to cover the cost. “It was a fascinating piece of work because of the issues involved and, in part, because of the people involved,” said Melnick. “I made a decision that the securities commission could pursue them and that was upheld by the court of appeal and it went to the Supreme Court of Canada and the Supreme Court of Canada refused the appeal. “So it went all the way up and they confirmed my decision, but it was a real tough decision to write because it was complex.” However, the hardest cases tend to be the family law cases, especially ones involving children, added Melnick. While most tend to settle before getting to court, the issues are tough to sort out in a fair and balanced fashion once it gets to chambers. It all comes down to making the best decision for the children, if there are any involved. “I’ve found those types of decisions the most difficult because of the emotional overlay involved and the consequences for the kids. You always want, to the best of your ability, to get it right for them, if you possibly can,” Melnick said. Eight years ago, Melnick elected to work half time. A year following that, he took the opportunity to forgo presiding over jury trials. Depending on how the Electoral Boundaries Commission report is received in the legislature, he’ll be able to retire permanently within the next year or so. His portrait will remain on the hallway behind the Supreme Court chamber with his predecessors, but time will tell if another one joins it.

Wolf/caribou a complex problem

Julie Ann Davies photo

It has been a busy year on the Lois Creek trails. Volunteers for the Friends of Lois Creek have been busy installing signs, doing regular maintenance work such as clearing deadfall, laying tracks for cross-country skiing, hosting events such as the 5 Peaks trail running event and the Turkey Runoff, building new bridges across the creek and a new shelter at the Tea Spot to name a few?If you are interested in becoming a Friend of Lois Creek or even just finding out about plans for 2015 you are invited to a meeting at Lindsay Park School tonight at 7pm. Public input is very important and your ideas and suggestions will be much appreciated. . The meeting will be no longer than one hour in length unless there are some pressing issues raised so bring along your ideas and suggestions and maybe become an active member of the Friends of Lois Creek.

From Page 1 Bergenske argues that habitat degradation is what has led to increased predation, differing from Jamieson on that point. “The science is clear that the habitat fragmentation and conversion of old forests to new have made mountain caribou more vulnerable to predation,” he writes. “The South Selkirks herd is the southernmost of 18 mountain caribou herds that together comprise fewer than 1700 endangered animals across their entire range. This decision comes after years of field research and policy debate over the controversial and emotionally charged issue. In fall of 2009 the Science Team confirmed the need for short-term wolf controls for herds where caribou numbers are very low (fewer than 50 animals) and where wolf predation is expected to hasten their demise before the benefits of other recovery actions (e.g. habitat protections and restoration) are realized.

Our groups have communicated a clear and consistent position to the BC government on predator controls for the benefit of mountain caribou persistence: that we could only support predator removals if the habitat of the herd in question was “effectively protected” from further development impacts and restored where possible; if there was clear evidence linking wolves to caribou deaths; and, if the controls proposed were carefully targeted to remove only the wolf packs responsible. “There is certainly more work to be done to protect caribou habitat, particularly in the valley bottom corridors where caribou are most vulnerable to predation. But that doesn’t preclude the current need to protect the South Selkirks caribou

herd now. We have consistently and forcefully opposed a broadbrush strategy of predator controls through much liberalized wolf hunting and trapping rules as inhumane, ecologically destructive and ineffective for protecting caribou. We believe the criteria we set forth for lending support to wolf control actions in the South Selkirks have been met.” Bergenske believes that allowing the South Selkirk caribou to die

Mental health in children and youth Reducing stigma from mental illness and getting the family support you need This is the last in a seven-part series written by Dr. David Smith

W

hen a child or teenager is diagnosed with a serious illness like cancer or organ failure, friends and neighbors often drop off casseroles or ask how they can help. The community rallies around the affected family to buoy them with support in their time of need. Not so —at least until now — when the diagnosis is a mental health issue. In fact, parents often say that their journey through the medical system, education, and social services, as well as society at large, with a child or youth with a mental health issue is one of the most lonely, isolating and emotionally difficult they have ever faced. “My daughter’s struggle with severe depression was more difficult for me than my husband’s sudden death,” said one mother, who is a family representative in the Interior’s Child and Youth Mental Health Collaborative. “After he died, people brought food, came by to watch my kids, let me cry and talk. When my daughter got ill, people stayed far away, but I needed more support than ever.” Keli Anderson, co-founder of The F.O.R.C.E Society for Mental Health (Families Organized for Recognition and Care Equality) knows that experi-

ence well. Her young son began showing behavioural problems and mental health issues 22 years ago at the age of 5, which turned out to be very early-onset bipolar disorder. Anderson felt shamed, blamed and completely on her own to navigate confusing and uncompassionate systems and an indifferent society. So the BC mother along with another mother facing the same challenges started The F. O . R . C . E . (forcesociety.com) to provide support, information, understanding and advocacy for families with children and youth with mental health issues. One of their popular and very helpful programs is the “Parent In Residence” and “Youth in Residence” positions in various regions, staffed by individuals with lived experience in child and youth mental health who help those just encountering the system, or any way along their journey. Thanks to the work of organizations like The F.O.R.C.E — which truly has become a force in BC for family support and advocacy — as well as the growth of other support organizations, families are no longer so alone. Youth and families are also front and centre in the Child and Youth Mental Health and Substance Use Collabora-

tive, which started in the Interior a year ago and is now expanding to Vancouver Island. Jointly funded by the BC government and Doctors of BC, the Collaborative is bringing families and youth together with a wide array of BC mental health professionals, including clinicians from the Ministry of Children and Family Development, physicians, school counselcommunity David lors, agencies, the and Smith RCMP more. Together the more than 350 members of the Collaborative are working to improve timely access and integration of child and youth mental health services in the province by working on local action teams in various communities, and finding solutions to system barriers through Working Groups. This series of seven columns is part of the work to improve mental health awareness and reduce barriers to care. Fortunately, the unnecessary stigma that has surrounded mental illness for decades is finally beginning to lessen. An increasing number of articulate, compassionate and public individuals are coming forward to tell their personal stories of life with a mental illness. Public individuals like Olympic athlete Clara Hughes, CBC radio host Sheilagh Rogers, actress

Catherine Zeta Jones, and comedian Robin Williams have all raised awareness and understanding, and reduced stigma to unprecedented levels. Youth, too, are coming forward in schools and communities to share their experiences and help others make the path less isolating. This growing openness and recognition is helping all of us understand that mental illness touches us all and that fostering mental wellness is a task for every one of us. The Child and Youth Mental Health and Substance Use Collaborative has received funding through to 2016 and is determined to make the experience for youth and families much more timely, efficient, effective and less isolating. While we still have a ways to go, with increased education and awareness, better integration of services, more family support and advocacy, as well as reduced levels of stigma, the future is growing ever brighter for children, youth and families experiencing mental health issues. Dr. David Smith is an adolescent and adult psychiatrist and the medical director of the Okanagan Psychiatric services for Interior Health. This series of columns on common child and youth mental health issues is a project of the Child and Youth Mental Health and Substances Use Collaborative.

Opinion/Events

Regarding “Hazard Report” submitted by a citizen of Cranbrook: I question the thoroughness of the investigation of a Hazard Report submitted by a citizen of our city. I won’t use the person’s name or position as this shouldn’t be the focus. It appears there’s an environmental hazard and our government representatives are failing to use common sense and have publicly harassed the person who reported the hazard. How could any hazard investigation be complete without contacting the source of the report? The private sector is held to the standards of Occupational Health and Safety (OH &S)/Work Safe BC. They are required by law to investigate and access the hazard, implement change to reduce or alleviate the hazard, and then add any remaining hazards to a Job Safety Analysis, commonly known as a JSA (The JSA would make it obvious signage in the area would be the first order of business.). Why isn’t our city or province accountable for the same action? The way this was further handled, by reporting publically the person who submitted the report, is what the private sector would consider to be Work Place Harassment. In a balanced Work/Safety environment the focus is on the reported not the reporter. Ask yourself, how will people feel in the future if they have a hazard to report? To Arne Petryshen, your first article, Jan 8, 2015, wasn’t complete, which makes one question its credibility. If the presence of a sidewalk is stopping our city or province from alleviating a hazard, then I say we look at our regulations. Sometimes policy is the hazard! Very often, private sector policy changes or flexes to consider safety first. To not consider a policy/environmental conflict in regards to safety is immature. To the citizen who just felt someone was going to get hurt or killed, thanks for having the courage and taking the time to report the hazard. I hope our city and provincial representatives will learn to handle Hazard Reporting more responsibly in the future. Barb Mooney Cranbrook

Million Dollar Caribou

In a race to “save” endangered caribou in the South Selkirk and South Peace regions of British Columbia, the Government of BC and various conservation groups have collectively lost their minds. The ridiculous and senseless helicopter slaughter of Timber wolves – causing localized pack extinction — is beyond comprehension, and certainly beyond belief! I take HUGE exception to this slaughter of wolves — on many different levels especially financial and ethical. It was bad enough that nearly a million taxpayer dollars was wasted in March of 2012 to translocate Dease Lake caribou to southern BC so that politicians, biologists, and conservation groups could monitor the animals as they suffered , starved and died off. The augmentation plan was an expensive taxpayer-funded experiment that failed miserably and was a complete fiasco. Of course – at the time – there was great fanfare on how to save ecosystems. John Bergenske of Wildsight sang: “It is an honor for Wildsight and its partners to play a role with the provincial government to recover an endangered species and a healthy wild ecosystem in the Koote-

nay region.” Even MLA Bill Bennett said his two cents worth and indicated where he was going with all this: “ I support the translocation on one condition, predators will have to be managed.” And now another expensive (million dollar?) fiasco is unfolding….the helicopter slaughter of wolves to try and save eighteen caribou (who – sadly - already have a death sentence due to habitat destruction). So in the end what will be left? We will have a hugely fragmented ecosystem damaged because of human manipulation, creating localized extinction of caribou and localized extinction of timber wolves with one single everlasting consequence - a mortally wounded ecosystem that will recover only when we idiot humans quit sticking our collective noses where we don’t belong. Should humans be involved with ecosystem management? I think not – we are not smart enough to figure this out... and way too greedy. On the other hand, I do believe there are some old men out there that should receive some serious “EGO” system management! Darryl Oakley Kimberley

Wolf Cull

In regard to the Selkirk Caribou Herd, the article by the Ktunaxa and the Northern Lights Wolf Centre rightly expressed everything that is wrong about the proposed aerial wolf kill. With only an estimated 18 caribou remaining, let’s not add further injury to the ecosystem by killing hundreds of wolves. Put the money that would be wasted on the wolf kill into protecting the herd with temporary large pens during calving season. Focus the remaining money on habitat restoration and protection. As Farley Mowat wrote about in “Never Cry Wolf ” and the couple who filmed “Being Caribou” showed us, wolves single out the very young, the sick, the very old and occasionally the unlucky. As the Ktunaxa and the Northern Lights advocates explained, the caribou are not in a critical state of decline because of the wolves. Killing wolves is not the remedy. Grant Smith Kimberley

Not in Session Days

Parents are gatherings petitions to be presented at the East Kootenay School District on February 10, 2015. This issue must be voted on during the March School Board meeting. The current school calendar’s nine Not In Session (NIS) days have created a hardship for parents, and parents are petitioning the board to revert back to the standard calendar, by removing the additional nine NIS Fridays that were added in 2013 and 2014. In 2013 the Minister of Education allowed schools to create their own calendars, as long as they provided the required number of hours of instruction each grade level required. They also had an obligation to consult with the parents and staff each year three months prior to the start of the new school calendar. Many parents have voiced the fact that there was insufficient consultation. As a result, they came to believe that the min-

Letters to the Editor Hazard Report

Thursday, January 22, 2015

istry mandated these extra days, and they had no other choice but to accept them. Prior to 2013, the standard had been for 6 Professional days and 1 administration day at the end of the school year. When the change came in effect, the majority of school districts (57 out of 60) kept to the standard number of days when schools were not in session. Only three districts, including SD5, took advantage of the new rules, and decided to invoke their right to ask for an additional days that the Ministry refers to as Vacation Days when schools are not in session (NIS days). These are NOT professional days. These days simply allow teachers, and staff, along with the students to enjoy nine extra vacation days. These nine days are costing parents a lot of money in lost wages. Some parents are now at risk of losing their jobs because there are no day care facilities that will take children on a one-day basis. In terms of education, these extra days come at a cost of lost quality teaching time. Adding a few minutes to various periods throughout the day does not equate to a full day of five subject classes. The shortened lunch period results in young children being unable to finish a healthy lunch, and does not allow them the physical, and social time they need. Parents want opportunities for a good education for their children. They do not want more Vacation days. They want the School Board to listen to their requests, and to remove the extra 9 Vacation Days from next year’s 2015-2016 school calendar. Parents who want to circulate petitions may download them by contacting: erpalmer505@gmail.com Leena Wright (grandparent) and Erika RievePalmer (parent of two students enrolled in SD 5)

A New World

In response to the letter sent in by Wayne Stetski: Mr. Stetski, you would also like to return to a Canada of the past. This is 2015 and we as Canadians live a world of global terrorism, where radicals do not recognize the rule of law, never mind the Geneva Convention. Canada is a country that has always sought peace, but many times our country has had to bear arms to achieve it. As the MP for Kootenay-Columbia, I must face the world as it is presented and work with our Canadian Armed Forces, along with diplomatic efforts to make Canada safer and more secure for generations to come. Your comments with regards to Veterans is completely false, in that our government has increased funding by over $5 billion since taking office, providing services never provided by previous governments. Around the world the Canadian flag is looked as a symbol of pride. One that reflects a country that is True, North, Strong and Free. Maybe you could explain to the people what your party, whoever that is, has done for our troops. If you are a Liberal, funding was cut to a point where our military was non-existent, and then were sent into battle with green fatigues in a brown battle ground. If you are NDP they have voted against any funding for the military and have never supported military engagement. David Wilks, MP Kootenay-Columbia

Battle royale

Kootenay Ice & Edmonton Oil Kings set for Central Division clash Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor

Rise and shine, hockey fans. The Kootenay Ice and Edmonton Oil Kings go to blows Thursday morning at 11:30 a.m. from Rexall Place, with critical points on the line as the WHL’s Central Division race remains a tight one. “That’ll be a new thing for me,” said Ice forward River Beattie of Thursday’s early start, following his team’s 4-3 win over Vancouver. “I’m excited to see how that one works out.” Thursday’s tilt will represent a homecoming of sorts for the 17-year-old Beattie, a native of Sherwood Park, just outside Edmonton. The Ice rookie has turned up the offense of late, tallying two goals in his team’s last two contests, doubling his goal total this season. Beattie, a sixth-round pick (120th overall) of the Ice in the 2012 WHL bantam Draft, joined the club this season after spending the 2013-14 campaign with the Lloydminster Bobcats of the Alberta Junior Hockey League. In 36 outings with the Bobcats last season, the 6-foot, 174-pound winger registered two goals and four points. He has already surpassed those totals through 40 games with the Ice, registering four goals and six points. “The Western Hockey League is a huge step,” Beattie said. “It’s a lot faster and guys are a lot more skilled.” Over the past few weeks, Ice head coach Ryan McGill has

stressed the necessity for his best players to be at their best. Beattie’s contributions from the fourth line have undoubtedly helped. Zak Zborosky has also answered the call, registering two goals and three assists in the team’s previous four contests. The Regina native is one of only five Ice to suit up in all 46 of the team’s games thus far in the 2014-15 campaign. A 2015 NHL Entry Draft eligible forward, Zborosky has tacked up 13 goals and 28 points, including the game-winning goal Tuesday night against the Vancouver Giants. For Zborosky, Thursday’s early game is no different than any other. “You’ve just to take it how it is every game,” Zborosky said. “Warm up, play soccer with the guys, bike rides, stuff like that. You go into it thinking it’s a normal game and you should be fine.” Since the return of captain Sam Reinhart, Zborosky has seen significant time on the right side of Kootenay’s alltime franchise scoring

leader, with veteran Tim Bozon patrolling the left side. The two veterans have helped Zborosky progress in his second season in Cranbrook. “It’s helped a lot. [Reinhart] can see anyone on the ice,” Zborosky said. “He makes the game easier. He slows it down at times and he’s easy to play with.” Zborosky was ranked 97th amongst North American skaters by the NHL Central Scouting Service’s midseason rankings Tuesday. Thursday’s game between the Ice and Oil Kings represents the fifth of six regular-season meetings between the two clubs in 2014-15. The two teams have split the series to this point, with each team winning the games it has hosted. The Oil Kings opened the season with a 4-2 win Sept. 20, before falling Nov. 7 (4-3) and Dec. 13 (6-3) in Cranbrook. The most recent contest saw the Oil Kings slip past the Ice 3-1 Jan. 3. “We’ve got to play a full 60 [minutes] and have a hard work ethic,” Zborosky said. “We’ve got to follow the game plan. If we follow the game plan and have a hard work ethic, we should be fine.” Thursday’s game represents the sixth-annual CN Hockey Hooky -dubbed as a hockey game with built-in educational curriculum for grade-school students. In purchasing tickets for their classes, teachers are also provided with a curriculum that incorporates activities and lessons relating to math, social studies, music, language arts and health.

Sam Reinhart, Jaedon Descheneau and Luke Philp hope to do a little more celebrating Thursday morning against the Edmonton Oil Kings. The two Central Division rivals continue to jockey for position in the WHL’s Eastern Conference playoff race with an 11:30 a.m. tilt Thursday at Rexall Place.

The Midgets South lost in overtime. Cranbrook Minor Hockey’s Tier-2 teams play in the South Central Alberta Hockey League which has AA teams from Medicine Hat in the east to Cranbrook in the west and up to Red Deer and Lacombe in the north. The Cranbrook Hornets bantam team will be hosting the B.C.

Sinclair, 15, travelled to Vancouver Island for a four-hour trial Oct. 25, 2014, -- the only opportunity the Cranbrook rugby player had to showcase his talents. B.C. Rugby held more than eight trials with more than 40 athletes. All trials were held on Vancouver Island and in the Lower Mainland. The Oct. 25 date was the only initial trial

Sinclair was able to attend due to the travel. From those trials, 24 rugby players were brought to the University of British Columbia in Vancouver for a threeday trial Jan. 2 to 4. Out of that group, 12 athletes were chosen to represent B.C. Rugby on the U-16 squad, with Sinclair being named to the team Jan. 19. Sinclair is the only athlete east of Chilliwack to be named to the B.C. Rugby U-16 squad. The Las Vegas International rugby sevens tournament runs alongside the USA Sevens International Rugby Tournament, which features men’s national teams

from Australia, Canada, England, France, Ireland, New Zealand, Scotland, South Africa and Wales. Sinclair and his teammates will have the opportunity to take in world class sevens rugby during their time in Las Vegas. Sevens rugby is a variation of traditional rugby, with teams comprised of seven players a side, rather than the traditional 15-player sides. Matches are also shorter than in traditional rugby. Rugby sevens has been recognized as an Olympic sport and will debut at the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.

Stampeders’ Hufnagel named CFL Coach of the Year

CANADIAN PRESS

WINNIPEG - The CFL’s best regular-season record and a Grey Cup championship have earned John Hufnagel his second Annis Stukus award. Hufnagel was named CFL coach of the year Wednesday in voting by the Football Reporters of Canada. Tom Higgins of the Montreal Alouettes and Chris Jones of the Edmonton Eskimos were the other finalists. Hufnagel, 63, guided

Calgary to a league-best 15-3 record and the Stampeders capped their season with a 20-16 Grey Cup victory over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats at B.C. Place Stadium. It marks the second time that Hufnagel has secured the coach of the year honour, doing so in ‘08 when he led Calgary to a CFL title in his first season as its head coach and general manager. Higgins, the former CFL director of officiating and two-time coach of the year winner, led

Thursday, January 22, 2015

Montreal to a 9-9 record and second spot in the East Division in his first season with the club, an impressive feat considering the Alouettes opened the season 1-7. Edmonton posted a 12-6 record - second-best in the CFL under Jones, its first-year head coach, after registering a 4-14 mark in 2013. But the Eskimos couldn’t solve the Stamps, losing all three regular-season games and the West Division final to their rivals.

NFL investigating Patriots underinflated football fiasco

Bouchard ‘twirls’ on at Aussie Open Jocelyn Gecker Associated Press

MELBOURNE, Australia - Eugenie Bouchard’s jaw dropped a little and her eyes went wide when the male presenter conducting her on-court interview at the Australian Open made an unusual request: “Can you give us a twirl?” “A twirl?” the 20-yearold Canadian asked. “A twirl, like a pirouette, here you go,” coaxed her white-haired interviewer on Margaret Court Arena, urging the Wimbledon runner-up to show the crowd her outfit, a pink skirt and top with bright yellow straps. Somewhat uncomfortably, the No. 7-ranked player twirled. Then she laughed and buried her face in her hands. During her postmatch conference Bouchard spoke first about her dominating 6-0, 6-3 win over Kiki Bertens of the Netherlands in just 54 minutes, then addressed the twirl. “It was very unexpected,” said Bouchard,

daily townsman / daily bulletin

who is known for a steely determination, drive and ambition that propelled her from relative obscurity to stardom last year. She reached the semifinals at last year’s Australian and French Opens and the final at Wimbledon, becoming the first Canadian to appear in a Grand Slam final. “I don’t know, an old guy asking you to twirl. It was funny,” she said. The 5-foot-10 blonde is considered the next big star of the women’s game. She broke into the top 10 for the first time last year after her success at Wimbledon where she lost in the final to Petra Kvitova. Her current ranking is the highest ever for a Canadian player. “I try to get into an aggressive position as much as possible,” she told a television interviewer after her match. Asked to reflect on her breakthroughs last year and her future goals, Bouchard replied, “I don’t think I’ve achieved that much.” “I’m proud, of course,

of what I did last year,” she said, but added, “I want to win a Grand Slam. I want to get to No. 1 in the world. I did good last year but I want to do so much better.” Bouchard is one of several players sporting this season’s colour theme of neon pink and yellow tennis outfits. No. 1 Serena Williams is wearing a somewhat similar dress, in yellow with pink straps but with a large chunk cut out of the back that she says is meant to draw attention to “the beauty and the shape of the back.” After Williams’ firstround win Tuesday on Margaret Court Arena, the Australian Open’s second show court, the same presenter asked her to twirl for the crowd, which she often does anyway to thank the crowd after winning. “Serena is good at her twirl. She does them all the time,” Bouchard told the presenter after her awkward twirl and then added: “Maybe I should cut a hole in my top tonight and show off my back like Serena.”

Teresa M. Walker Associated Press

The NFL is very precise about its game and equipment - including the number of footballs prepared for games, how much each must weigh, and who monitors them until kickoff. One rule is clear: Don’t tamper with a football once it has been inspected for game use. The NFL is investigating a report that the New England Patriots used underinflated footballs in the AFC championship game while beating the Indianapolis Colts 45-7. ESPN cited anonymous sources Tuesday night in reporting the league found that 11 of 12 balls were underinflated by 2 pounds per square inch of air. Things to know: CHAIN OF CUSTODY: Footballs are delivered to the officials’ dressing room 2 hours, 15 minutes before kickoff. The referee inspects each one, with a pump

provided by the home team to adjust air pressure as needed. Footballs are required to have at least 12.5 psi and no more than 13.5 psi. Releasing air can make the football easier to grip, especially when wet. Some quarterbacks prefer a softer ball to control the spin more, while others like more air. A drop in temperature - from the officials’ dressing room to an outdoor field - also can cause a football to lose pressure. THE REF RULES: The referee is the sole judge of whether a ball is fit for play and marks each one approved for the game. The rule says footballs “shall remain under the supervision of the Referee until they are delivered to the ball attendant prior to the start of the game.” The referee for the game was Walt Anderson. A key question in the investigation is whether balls improperly passed inspection or were either switched or

tampered with after Anderson’s inspection. As the home team, the Patriots were responsible for having someone handle the footballs on each sideline. BALL CONTROL: Footballs are sent directly to teams. Equipment managers can brush them and use a damp towel to rub off oil used to preserve the leather to the preferences of each quarterback. The quarterbacks can practice with the footballs during a game week as long as the footballs remain in good enough condition to pass referee’s inspection as a new ball. Each team brings at least 12 balls, so Tom Brady threw footballs provided by the Patriots while Andrew Luck handled footballs brought by the Colts. POTENTIAL PUNISHMENT: If the NFL finds anyone with the Patriots underinflated footballs, Commissioner Roger Goodell has wide

latitude for punishment. This includes a fine as low as $25,000 for anyone responsible for tampering with a football, even if it’s the head coach. Goodell could strip the team of draft picks, suspend people for “unfair acts,” and reverse a game’s result or reschedule a game. PREVIOUS OFFENSE: Goodell fined New England coach Bill Belichick $500,000 and the Patriots $250,000 along with stripping the team of a first-round draft pick in 2007 for having an assistant spy on the New York Jets’ defensive signals by using a sideline camera. FURTHER REVIEW: Steelers president Art Rooney II said Wednesday he expects the competition committee to study whether the rule should change, but he thinks everyone should use the same balls. AP Sports Writer Will Graves contributed to this report.

It happened this week in Cranbrook

Week January 18 - 24

Dave Humphrey Items compiled from the archived newspapers held at the Cranbrook Museum and Archives

1906 NO SPACE AT THE INN … Cranbrook is well supplied with hotels, but never a day goes by without people looking in vain for a room, and finally compromising by sharing the same with a second party. Nearly every night the hotels are packed to the limit and the hallways filled with cots besides. There is no special rush in town and this is the dull time of the year, yet people come to Cranbrook and invest their money. It augurs well for next spring when the natural rush will commence, Cranbrook will be crowded with people then, and there will be people coming to all of East Kootenay, and to get to any point, they will for personal convenience come to Cranbrook first. It will be a great year for Cranbrook. CITY ELECTION … Mayor Rogers Re-Elected by Acclamation. Jackson, Fink, Murphy, Greer, Ryan and Tisdale Elected Aldermen. The second municipal election of the city of Cranbrook, occurred to-day, and, while a number of the candidates and their supporters were on the streets early and worked hard all day, the best of humor prevailed and everything passed off as peacefully and with less excitement than an ordinary Sunday school picnic. At the close of the nominations on Tuesday G. T. Rogers was the only nominee for mayor and was declared elected by acclamation, a fitting recognition of his ability as disclosed during his incumbency of the office the past two months. For aldermen there were eight nominations made as follows: J. P. Fink, Joseph Jackson, H. Hicken-Gotham, James Greer, D. A. Murphy, G. P. Tisdale, all candidates for re-election and James Ryan and A. Doyle, thus necessitating a poll. 1907 BLAZE AT MOYIE … The Farrel block was burned here Saturday, the fire starting about 2.30. The building and furniture belonged to Miss Mamie Farrell, and were valued at $2,500 and $400 respectively. The insurance on the building is $1,200 and that on the furniture $200. The other occupants of the block had no insurance and their losses are as follows: W, H. F. Crosby, entire stock in store, $1,500; W. L, Lucas $600; Harold Chapman, $150; K. D. Stinson, $75. The four persons last mentioned lost clothing, books and other personal effects to the extent given. Gordon Monkhous got his belongings out, but they were badly damaged by water. The fire is said to have started in the rear of W. H. Crosby’s store.

KOOTENAY VALLEY COMPANY … 20,000 acres of the very pick of the selected lands in the beautiful Kootenay Valley, East, Kootenay, B. C., extending from Canal Flat to Elko, are offered for sale at from $3 to $10 per acre. The Kootenay Valley is Unsurpassed Fertility, Matchless Climate and the Most Picturesque Situation West of the Rocky Mountains. The lands present every feature of usefulness, including timbered benches, brushy flats, marsh, prairie and meadow. The brushy flats, marsh and meadow lands consist of deep, black loam; the bench land being a sandy loam, splendidly adapted for fruit culture. Where irrigation may be necessary on the benches, water can be had from the mountain creeks flowing from the Rockies into the Kootenay River. The lands are fully surveyed and some of the lots have been sub-divided into fenced farms of about 80 acres each. The purchase price will include the timber, which can be sold by the purchaser without, any liability to government or other royalty. Logs can be driven on the Kootenay River, which touches every lot save one. The main wagon road through the valley passes over or close to each lot, and the proposed Kootenay Central railway will parallel the wagon road. The C. P. R. is quite convenient to the lands. For further particulars apply to T. G. Proctor, Nelson, B. C. or to Joseph Ryan Cranbrook, B. C. CORPORATION OF THE CITY OF CRANBROOK … Extract from pound and dog tax by-law. No person shall allow any horse, mule, bull, ox, cow, sheep, goat, pig or other cattle or poultry to run at large within the city, otherwise the same may be impounded and the owner thereof is liable for damages caused. .

The fine to the poundkeeper for every animal is as follows: Stallions, $5.00; Other horses, mares, geldings, fillies or mules, $1.00 each; Bull, $5.00. ; Cow or other kind of cattle, $2.00. ; Boar pig, $4.00. ; Pig, sheep or goat, $1.00; Fowl, 25 cents.

1903 BETTER MAIL SERVICE WANTED ... A Cranbrook man wishing to go to Spokane on business connected with a mining property located in the Windermere district wrote to his partner at Wilmer for some data. He waited fourteen days for a reply and gave it up and went on to Spokane and transacted his business the best that he could without the required information. The day after his return from Spokane he got his mail and received the letter that he had waited so long for. It had just arrived that day. DR. BARBER GOES TO FERNIE ... Dr. Barber returned last Tuesday from Fernie, and will remain in Cranbrook until the end of the month, when he will remove to Fernie with Mrs. Barber to remain permanently. The doctor desires the Herald to thank the people of Cranbrook for their patronage accorded him in the past, and to say that there are a few unfinished jobs of dentistry in the town that he wishes to attend to before his departure. NEW MASONIC HALL … The Cranbrook Masons will have the largest and best hall in this part of the province when the plans now prepared are carried out. It is the intention of John Leask the owner of the building, to build forty feet more onto the rear, and fit up the second story in a manner to suit the local lodge, When completed it will be furnished in a neat sumptuous manner, an order having already been sent to England for the rugs and carpets. SPIES EVERYWHERE … The Ministers’ Alliance held a warm meeting at the Baptist church Monday evening. An address on Sunday observance was made by Rev Fortune and the question of Sunday closing was discussed. It was arranged to appoint spies from each church represented at the meeting to visit the hotels Sundays for the purpose of catching anyone violating the law. The spies are to be appointed secretly by the ministers so that no one may know. Another meeting will be held soon to prosecute the work of reform in Cranbrook. TAKE NOTICE ... There strayed on my premises about the middle of November last a black sow. It has lived on my place ever since. The owner can have it by paying for its keep and for this notice. John Brennan. WHAT IS YOUR FAMILY TREE? …There are a lot of people in Cranbrook whose Scotch descendants cannot be traced back further than the label on a bottle of Dewar. RELOCATION … It is said that the order to close the red light district goes into effect on March 1st. Although the majority of people object to the present location, yet the whole town is up in arms against the new location selected by the authorities.

90 MINUTE NOON-HOUR … The pupils at the public school now have an hour and one-half at noon. That is more in the line of common sense. ANY TAKERS? …The bankers of Cranbrook would like to arrange a hockey match with a team picked from the rest of the town. Those interested kindly communicate with J. A. Motherwell.

actors.” Said actors include Barry Coulter as Vladimir, Barry Borgstrom as Estragon, Dave Prinn as Pozzo, Mark Casey as Lucky, and Austin McAra as the Boy. “These four guys are really dedicated to what they want to do, and the biggest chore for everybody has been the huge memory work. It’s not a traditional script where lines naturally flow. So everybody has worked very diligently to memorize lines; consequently, rehearsals have been pretty straight-forward and fairly easy.” “Waiting for Godot” originally debuted in 1953. The basic plotline involves two dishevelled tramps (Vladimir and Estragon) who existentially bicker with each other while awaiting the arrival of the mysterious Godot. Their discussions veer between the half-shared recollection of dreams, suspicions of nocturnal beatings, thoughts of mutual suicide, bizarre jokes, theology, and gnawing hunger. The appearance of the clownish masterand-slave duo of Pozzo and Lucky (and a messenger boy) escalate the

avant-garde novelist, playwright, theatre director, and poet. His work displays a bleak, tragicomic outlook on human nature, incorporating black humour and gallows humour into his writing. Widely regarded as among the most influential writers of the 20th Century, he is one of the key writers in the so-called “Theatre of the Absurd,” and was awarded the 1969 Nobel Peace Prize for Literature. “The big thing about Beckett is that his scripts are very musical,” Kershaw said. “All five characters in ‘Godot” clue in very easily into the rhythms of the play. I haven’t actually seen any live productions of ‘Godot’ before. I haven’t even seen it on TV! But I’m very happy with how our own vision and version of the play has come together onstage. We’ve certainly gone in a different direction than Beckett wanted to go; Beckett wanted us out on a country road with nothing around but a scraggly tree and an old bench...and we put the setting in the middle of a city. I don’t know whether Beckett would appreciate our version of his production...or whether he’d roll over in his grave! I believe we have a pretty good production. We have some wonderful

Paul Kershaw shows no sign of either slowing his pace or narrowing his artistic scope in the world of Cranbrook live theatre. Case in point: the East Kootenay debut of Samuel Beckett’s absurdist classic “Waiting for Godot;” the curtain rises Wednesday, Jan. 21, through Saturday, Jan. 24, at Cranbrook’s Key City Theatre. Kershaw explains his inspiration to tackle something out of the ordinary. “Over the last five years I’ve done several Shakespeare productions, namely ‘Twelfth Night’ and ‘Romeo and Juliet.’ And I’ve done my fair share of musical theatre, interspersed with plays like ‘Lips Together, Teeth Apart,’ ‘House of Blue Leaves,’ ‘Noises Off,’ ‘Lettuce and Loveage.’ “I took a year off to think: what would interest me to direct again? Very early on in my career, I learned that you can’t make good theatre without good literature. And so, directing Shakespearean plays was great, since I know that’s good literature, and then it suddenly dawned on me that Beckett’s ‘Godot’ is a classic, and has never been done around here — and I would like to try it.” Samuel Beckett (1906-1989) was an Irish

been dumped upon the play by critics for over 60 years; audiences will

encounter references to religion, philosophy, psychoanalysis, ritual-

ism — as well as pure vaudeville and slapstick comedy. Kershaw is convinced that East Kootenay audiences will walk away entertained, as well as carry away the experience of having witnessed something quite special in the local arts world. “A lot of people have heard about “Waiting for Godot,” but not very many people have actually seen it in action. Now here’s their chance!” Paul Kershaw presents Samuel Beckett’s absurdist masterpiece “Waiting for Godot” at Cranbrook’s Key City Theatre Wednesday, Jan.21 through Saturday,Jan.24; showtimes 7:30 pm sharp.

to perform for audiences in Cranbrook, with three shows scheduled for the winter and spring of 2015. The couple have long affiliation with the downtown music scene. Mike cut his teeth on live folk and roots music, accompanying his father to performances hosted

by Gord and Jill Johnston at the Swing Street coffee house in the 1990s. More recently Mike and Corinna enjoyed attending the popular Beannick Concert series hosted by Gord Johnston and Terry Miller. However, with the recent retirement of that

series coming shortly after Mike and Corinna’s first hosted performance, it only seemed timely to take on a more formal event, Mike said. “As before, the concerts will be at the Studio Stage Door,” Mike said, adding that the popularity of these shows means the possibility larger venues like the Key City Theatre may be explored

for the future.” Tickets for the shows (see below) can be acquired by contacting 250-421-7802, or by email at music@lotic.co. You can also contact them to have you email included on a distribution list for upcoming events. The schedule: • Friday, February 13 : John Wort Hannam is a

folk musician from Fort Macleod, Alberta. He was born in Jersey, Channel Islands. He’s is known for his story telling through music. Themes which are central to his music include life in Western Canada, and the human experience as seen through the eyes of simple working folk. 7pm. • Sunday, March 22:

Old Man Luedecke is the recording name of twotime Juno Award-winning Canadian singer-songwriter and banjo player Chris Luedecke of Chester, Nova Scotia. 7pm. • April 11: Ian Tamblyn is a Canadian folk music singer-songwriter and record producer, adventurer, and playwright. 7 pm

The ABC’s of the Caribbean Carla Nelson of Maritime Travel writes of the tourist playgrounds Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao

L

ocated in the Lesser Antilles and technically part of South America rather than the North American Caribbean, the islands of Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao are affectionately known as the ABC islands. Just north of Venezuela and in the western Caribbean, you will find these three islands that are part of the Netherlands but not part of the European Union. Said to have been discovered by one of Christopher Columbus’ captains in 1499, these islands were first inhabited by the Spaniards. In 1634, the Netherlands fought Spain for the islands and won. When oil was discovered in Venezuela in the 20th century, the islands became oil refineries. Fast forward to

today, and these islands are playgrounds for tourists. Popular year round because they are ‘hurricane safe’ — outside the hurricane belt in the Caribbean. The largest island is Curacao. The main city is Willemstad, which is also a cruise ship port. You can take postcard photos here of the colourful townhouses, which are very similar to the architecture of Amsterdam. Cas Abou Beach has the widest stretch of white sand. There is a popular Underwater Park. Snorkelling, fishing and sailing are available. For evening, there are many casinos on the island. The second largest, and most well known island is Aruba. It is flat and has the driest climate, almost desert in places. There is a large cruise port here in Oranjestad (Orange

World War II — many species of tropical fish have made their home there. The smallest, and least populated island in this chain is Bonaire (Good Air). So small that there aren’t even any traffic lights in the city of Kralendijk or anywhere on the island. Famous for the Bonaire Marine Park, it is a diving paradise. The island is surrounded by reefs. The trumpetfish is the ‘star’ here for snorkelers and divers. You can also find flamingoes and 4 species of sea turtles on the island. Needless to say, dining out is an amazing experience for seafood lovers! Lobster, barracuda, grouper, shrimp, mahimahi, tuna — you name it, you can have it! And of course, then you can wash it down with some of the finest Dutch beer! If you are looking for a new sun destination experience this winter, consider the ABC islands. They’re a little more difficult to get to, but well worth the trip. For more information, contact Carla Nelson, Branch Manager, Maritime T rav e l , 250.489.4788.

Donning the wig and becoming Hedwig Nelson cultural ambassador Bessie Wapp bringing Hedwig and the Angry Inch to Nelson, Cranbrook, Trail. Will Johnson Nelson Star

Nelson cultural ambassador Bessie Wapp was poised patiently in a Selkirk College classroom on Sunday night, sitting still while Hedwig and the Angry Inch director Pat Henman and her team carefully prepared her character’s look for the first time. Their aim was to transform the 48-yearold woman into the titular rockstar, an East German survivor of a botched sex change surgery. While they tinkered with the wigs, perfected the pancaked 80s-style glam makeup and tested out the fit of various costume items, including a pair of gaudy gold earrings and old-school denim vest, the Star sat down with Wapp to find out what the rehearsal process has been like so far. “Vith the accent, it is hard to find the right amount. Not too little und not too much. I vant people to understand the vords, so it can’t be too strong,” said Wapp, in character. “Ven I am singing my songs they must understand the vords.” Wapp recently cut off her lengthy hair, a move necessary to complete her transformation. Throughout most of the

Bessie Wapp as Hedwig show she will be wearing giant blond wigs. “You are now seeing me put on the vig for the first time, or that’s not quite true. This is the first time you’re seeing vun that’s acceptable. The other one vas hideous.” Wapp is now two weeks into a rehearsal process for the show, which was written by

Nelson Star

tion between Selkirk College and Black Productions. Darren Mahe and three Selkirk music students—piano player Amanda Cawley, guitarist Leonard Pallerstein and drummer Brennan Buglioni—will play Hedwig’s band The Angry Inch. “The musicians are fantastic and the partnership is a wonderful idea. A theatre company partnering with Selkirk, with the wonderful Darren Mahe being band leader and mentor? That’s great. It’s professional experience for them and believe me, I vill use them!” “I’m really looking forward to sharing what I think is a brilliant script with audiences and having them be as moved by it as I am. It’s so layered. We were talking in rehearsal about how so many co-

medians are born out of terrible trauma, and they learn how to talk about it in a way that makes you laugh and cry almost at the same time. This show is kind of like that. It’s so rich.” Wapp said the musical rewards close attention. “There are a lot of images in the show that resonate and surface and relate to each other in different contexts throughout the play. There’s a lot of lines where I’ll stumble over it, because on the surface it means one thing and then you realize this relates to that, and it has a way deeper meaning.” Wapp said working with Henman has been a pleasure. “Vell, Bessie would say it’s okay, but Hedvig would have some complaints about her,” she said.

All submissions will be accepted, by email, fax or handed-in hard copies. They will be judged here at the Townsman by numerous judges and lovers of poetry, and the five favourites will be chosen to make a short list. The five finalist poets will then be recorded reciting their poems for videos, to be posted on our website.

Alan Turing’s notebook heads to auction NEW YORK - A handwritten notebook by Alan Turing, the World War II code-breaking genius depicted by Benedict Cumberbatch in the Oscar-nominated “The Imitation Game,” is going on the auction block. The 56-page manuscript was written at the time the British mathematician and computer science pioneer was working to break the seemingly unbreakable Enigma codes used by the Germans throughout World War II. It is being sold by Bonhams in New York on April 13. It is expected to bring at least $1 million. The notebook contains Turing’s complex mathematical and computer science notations. It is believed to be the only extensive Turing manuscript known to exist, the auctioneer said. It dates from 1942, when Turing was trying to break the seemingly unbreakable code with his team of cryptanalysts at Britain’s World War II code and cypher school Bletchley Park. Associated Press

by the CBK Youth Action Team. Youth will use the hashtag #cbkyouthfriendly to submit the post. To keep things fun and respectful, we’re asking youth to only submit positive experiences.

HOROSCOPES by Jacqueline Bigar

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You might be holding back some strong feelings that you normally would be uncomfortable sitting on. A serious discussion with a friend who offers a fresh perspective will help you focus on what would be the best way to handle this whirlwind of emotions. Tonight: Play it lowkey. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) A friend will play a strong role in your plans. Be careful, as this person could be unusually pushy. You might wonder which way to turn. A partner who seems closed off probably won’t encourage a discussion, even if it involves him or her directly. Tonight: Do what you want to do. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Take the lead, and you are likely to have more say in the outcome. You might have a lot of ideas that you want to throw into the mix. Look at what will bring you the greatest sense of well-being. Do not lash out at a parent or higher-up. Tonight: A

force to be dealt with. CANCER (June 21-July 22) You have a vision that many people can’t seem to understand. You know what you want and how to create it. Those around you might not have the ability to conjure up such a vision. Make a call, but do not stand on ceremony. Tonight: Don’t push beyond your normal limits. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Make it a point to deal with someone directly. You will get a strong reaction, no matter what you say to this person. Understand that this belligerent behavior has nothing to do with you. Step back rather than get involved. Tonight: Talk through recent events over dinner. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Make it your pleasure to defer to someone else. This person is likely to be eager to want to help. Try to stay out of this process. A family member or a situation involving property could limit or substantially curb your options. Tonight: The only answer is “yes.”

Tundra

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You might have a strong idea about how to proceed in a situation that affects your daily life. Allow your imagination to find the right path. Ask yourself some questions, especially involving a project and your involvement. Tonight: Put up your feet and relax. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Work with a creative idea. You will see the difference when you don’t hold yourself back so much. You might not want to invest too much money in this project. Know when to step back and become less involved. Establish limits. Tonight: Get into weekend mode. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Tension could build between you and a family member because of certain demands. Practice saying “no!” At the same time, note that this person can be unusually creative and is likely to come up with several good ideas. Tonight: Lie low. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You’ll want to share some ideas you have kept to yourself once

you discover that you have a receptive audience. You might trigger a brainstorming session and get important feedback. Your intuition will guide you with a money matter. Tonight: Meet up with a friend. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Be conscious of your spending habits. It will be almost too easy to say “yes” to any proposal that heads your way. You might want to put the kibosh on some wild purchases or investments right now. A friend will support you in nixing a risk. Tonight: Pay bills first. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You’ll have a lot of energy invested in finishing up a project. You might be very busy and somewhat demanding. You want the situation to be exactly the way you want.

Rhymes with Orange

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My father died a year ago. Since then, I have ignored my extended family, but I’m close to my children and grandchildren. Christmas passed and I never phoned my sick mother, even though I live 15 minutes away. I want to make it right, but can’t just waltz into their lives and say, “Here I am.” My younger sister has been taking care of Mom without a break. I can’t stand to be around my older sister, who handles Mom’s finances. She is hateful and judgmental, and frankly, she scares me. And then there’s my mother. We have a strained relationship. When I was a little girl, my parents would argue and she’d tell my father to leave and take me with him. Only me. My mom always treats my siblings and their children with kid gloves, but my sweet, intelligent kids she treats like lepers. I want my family to be together like we used to be. If you could print this, maybe my mother and sisters would see it and know that I beg their forgiveness. -- Lost in Louisville, Ky. Dear Louisville: Here’s what we see: You resent your mother for the favorable treatment she has always shown your siblings and their children. You dislike your older sister for her overbearing attitude. You feel guilty about your younger sister, who took on the burden of caring for Mom. And you miss Dad, who was the buffer. Start with your younger sister. Tell her you went into a tailspin when Dad died and you deeply regret abandoning her. Ask what you can do now. Then go see your mother. Phone or email your older sister. You will have to put up with their anger and disappointment, but that will be temporary while you work on forgiveness. You might also consider counseling to work through some of your family issues. Dear Annie: My husband and I have been married more than 30 years, and every year he buys me gifts that don’t require much thought. He gets lovely things for our daughter, son-in-law and even co-workers, and I know he puts a lot of time into the selection. But the gifts he gives me always make me want to cry. Last Christmas, I got a bug suction machine. The year before, it was an organizer for my spice cabinet. In all fairness, he also gives me a generous gift card to one of my favorite stores, but he knows that I don’t get there often and the cards sit in my drawer for months. Plus, it’s not really special to get a gift card from my husband, but I am grateful nonetheless. I dread opening gifts, and my feelings are hurt no matter how much I tell myself it doesn’t matter. To me, it’s not the size of the gifts; it’s whether he was truly thinking of me. So how can I tell him nicely that he’d be doing me a favor by not getting me any more gifts? -- Midwest Dear Midwest: Be sure that’s what you want, because if you tell him not to buy you anything, he will stop completely. And has it occurred to you that perhaps his assistant buys the other gifts, but considers yours too personal and leaves it for Mr. Clueless? Talk to your husband about this. Teach him how to be more thoughtful. Explain what you mean. Give him concrete suggestions. But that bug suction machine made our day. Dear Annie: “Gotta Dance” says his mom doesn’t support his desire to tap dance. She needs to recognize the benefits. My 13-year-old son has taken dance lessons (tap, hip-hop and musical theater) since kindergarten. It keeps his core muscles in shape when he’s not playing football and helps him gain confidence around girls, since he is the only boy in the class. I don’t expect it to be his profession, but I hope he continues for as long as he wants. -- Proud in Omaha Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Mildred passed away peacefully at the age of 92 with her loved ones by her side. She was loved and cared for by her family and many friends. She was a caring and thoughtful mother, grandmother and great grandmother, sister and friend. She is survived by her children, Linda Corbett (Duane) of Golden, Lorna Nilsen of Kamloops, Wanita Milne (Bruce) of Cranbrook, Robert Turner (Jo Ann) of Elkford, Sue Wells (Ron) of Victoria, Garth Turner of Prince George, and her sister Agnes Simpson of Ottawa, Ontario. Mildred has 13 grandchildren and many great grandchildren. She is predeceased by her husband Stanley and grandson Ryan Turner. Born in West Hanford, Nova Scotia, Mildred and her family moved to Cranbrook in 1948. Along with raising her family she worked many years at the Dr. F.W. Green Memorial Home, and was member of the Pythian Sisters for 57 years. Upon her retirement, Mildred continued to support the Green Home through many hours of volunteer work. She also spent many weekends at Fort Steele baking cookies and explaining to tourists about life during that era. Mildred was recognized for her volunteer efforts by being awarded the Canada Appreciation Award in 1993, as well as being recognized by the province of British Columbia. She will always be remembered for her quick wit, beautiful knitting and amazing baking. Many thanks to Dr. Davies, nurses and Staff of the East Kootenay Regional Hospital for the excellent care and support given during her brief stay in the hospital. A Celebration of Mildred’s life will be held at Mark Memorial Funeral Home on Friday, January 23, 2015 at 1:00 pm. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that any donations be made to Pythian Cerebral Palsey Committee, 530 Ailsa Avenue, Port Moody, V3H 1A6. Condolences my be left for the family at www.makmemorial.com. Mark Memorial Funeral Services in care of arrangements.

Top Ten Reasons to Advertise in a Newspaper 1. Advertise to Reach New Customers. Your market changes constantly. Advertising is tremendously helpful in directing customers to the product and services they need, and helps put you ahead of your competition.

2. Your Competition Isn’t Quitting. You’ve got to advertise to get your share of business or lose it to the stores that do. If you cut back on your advertising, you may forfeit new prospective customers to your competition.

3. Advantage Over Competitors Who Cut Back.

Check out your ad in the newspaper and count all the calls coming in!!

55 + tax includes 25 words, and photo. Extra words $1.00 each. Enclose photo. If you require your photo back, please include a self-addressed, stamped envelope.

A five year survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising during a troubled economy saw sales increase an average of 100%.

4. Continuous Advertising Strengthens Your Image. When people who postpone buying come back to the marketplace, you’ve got a better chance of getting their business if you’ve continued to maintain a solid, reliable image.

5. Direct Advertising is Cost Efficient. Direct has the advantages – demographic and geographic numbers to afford advertisers the best value and exposure for their advertising dollar.

6. Advertise to Generate Traffic. Continuous traffic is the first step toward sales increases and expanding your base of buyers. The more people who contact you, the more possibilities you have to make sales.

7. Advertise to Make More Sales. Advertising works! Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. You’ll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.

8. Advertise Because There is Always Business to Generate. Salespeople are on the payroll. As long as you’re in business, you have overhead and you’ve got to advertise to generate a steady cash flow.

9. Advertise to Keep a Healthy Positive Image. In a troubled economy, rumors and bad news travel fast. Advertising corrects gossip, shoots down false reports and projects positively.

10. Advertise to Maintain Employee Morale. When advertising and promotion are cut, salespeople become less motivated. They may believe the store is cutting back, even going out of business.

feel like I’m raising another child when he comes home from work. Do I have any guardian angels or anyone watching over me? Are deceased family members trying to communicate with me in various ways? I’ve had several experiences in my life and can’t really tell people about them because I’m afraid they won’t believe me. I’ve had an experience of feeling a hand pull me and I was the only one in the room. I sometimes feel like someone is standing near me when no one else is there. I have dreams of things that sometimes

happen later on in life. I sometimes see shadows of what appears to be people. It happens now and then. Who are they? Am I going crazy? Feeling Scrambled Dear Feeling Scrambled: You have many questions you want answered so I did a direct question and answer reading with my guides and this is what I have discovered for you: Q.

Her guide is trying to pull her in the right direction and she refuses to learn her lessons. He is trying to tell her to listen to her “gut feelings” and her inner voice but she is rejecting the messages she is receiving from

her God and thus rejecting any help that we are trying to give her.

In conclusion it is quite normal for everyone to have dreams of things that sometimes happen later on in life. I know tons of people who have told me that at sometime in their life their dreams have come true. When I was young I had these dreams quite often and was very aware of them quite often coming to pass. However, I was quite psychic when I was young. For the normal person if they have not experienced this then it was because they do not remember their dreams or do not live in self-awareness. Wendy

Clinton says Canada, world must fight terrorist propaganda Chinta Puxley Canadian Press

WINNIPEG - Former U.S. secretary of state Hillary Clinton is calling on Canada to continue fighting the “ideology of hate” and extremist propaganda fuelling terrorism. Clinton told about 2,000 people at a Winnipeg Chamber of Commerce luncheon that the international community has to target material that is drawing radicals to the cause. Everyone has a stake in

the “contest of ideas and values,” said the former senator and first lady, who pointed to the recent terrorist attacks in Paris and last year’s storming of Parliament Hill in Ottawa by lone gunman Michael Zehaf-Bibeau. “This is a generational challenge and it must be waged on many fronts,” Clinton said. “It may seem very far away from Winnipeg, but ... it is a struggle that all of us have a stake in making sure that our side

wins.” Extremism is hurting the vast majority of Muslims who are “peaceful and tolerant,” she said. “We can’t close our eyes to the fact that, at this time in our world history, there is a distorted and dangerous strain of extremism within the Muslim world that continues to spread,” Clinton said. “They have the capacity to cause profound damage, most especially to their own communities. With these vicious few, we are

confronting an ideology of hate.” One of the best weapons in the fight against terrorism is democracy, Clinton suggested. She pointed to the outpouring of support from millions following the attacks in Paris. “Extremism, authoritarianism, Putinism - none of them can compete with democracy at our best. The future is ours if we come together, live our values and understand that we have to export those values.”

Interest-rate change generates political intrigue C anadian Press

LONDON, Ont. The non-partisan Bank of Canada has suddenly become an important player in this year’s federal election. The bank’s surprise decision Wednesday to cut its trend-setting interest rate gave opposition parties fuel for their argument that Stephen Harper has mismanaged the econ-

omy and undercut the prime minister’s contention that he’s a steady hand on the economic tiller. “The Bank of Canada is clearly signalling that they believe that the problems in our economy are far deeper than anything the Conservatives have been willing to admit,” NDP Leader Tom Mulcair said at a news conference in Toronto.

“It’s high time Stephen Harper stopped hiding, stopped hiding his finance minister, stopped playing peekaboo with the budget date and start assuming some leadership and responsibility for the economy.” Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau also said the bank’s move demonstrates the Harper Conservatives are on the wrong eco-

nomic track. Wrapping up a twoday caucus retreat in London, Ont., Trudeau accused Harper of having relied on highpriced oil to produce a budget surplus and fund an expensive family tax benefits package in time for the election, scheduled for October. But now that oil prices have plunged to less than US$50 a bar-

bility. There should be more international financial support for the Ukrainian government that is fighting against forces equipped by Russian President Vladimir Putin, she said. Putin has his eye on a much larger swath of territory which he would like to annex or control through puppets, she said. That is bad news for Ukraine and for Europe. “I think we should be putting more financial support into the Ukrainian government as they try to make their way slowly from what was an inept, dysfunctional, very corrupt system into a more globally accepted one,” Clinton said. “I think we’re smart enough to figure out how we would hold them accountable for that and to make it very clear that the money comes with certain strings.” Clinton was to visit Winnipeg’s new Canadian Museum for Human Rights before travelling to Saskatoon, where she was to give another speech Wednesday evening.

rel, costing the federal treasury billions, Trudeau said Harper is making up economic policy on the fly. Finance Minister Joe Oliver last week announced he would delay the budget until at least April, given the oil price uncertainty. That fuelled doubts about the government’s ability to deliver its promised balanced budget.

Clinton’s speech in Winnipeg, to an audience who paid $300 a ticket, came the day after President Barack Obama’s state-of-the-union address. There is wide speculation she will take another run at the Democratic presidential nomination. She ran unsuccessfully against Obama in 2008 and was appointed secretary of state during his first term as president. On Wednesday, Clinton continued to be coy, calling a question about what she would do as president “hypothetical” to laughter from the audience. She also steered clear of the controversial Keystone XL pipeline, which would carry oilsands bitumen from Alberta to Texas refineries. “You won’t get me to talk about Keystone because I have steadily made clear I’m not going to express an opinion,” Clinton said. “This is in our process and that’s where it belongs.” Instead, she kept her focus on how Canada and the United States could work together to fight terrorism and international insta-
