RCMP REPORT
Miller, Ferrie both medal on final weekend Lock it or lose
Team BC scores four medals in cross-country skiing; Kimberley athletes contribute to three of them
it, police say CPL, CHRIS NE WEL For the Bulletin
C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor
How about those Kimberley cross-country skiers? When a town as small as Kimberley sends only two athletes to the Canada Games and they come home with three medals, that’s something to be very proud of. On Saturday, Team BC picked up a silver in the Women’s Relay and a bronze in the Men’s. Molly Miller of Kimberley, only 13 and in her first Canada Games, had a big contribution to BC’s silver medal. In the first transition, Team BC was sitting in sixth place when Miller started out on the course. “I caught the first two athletes pretty quickly and stayed with them until about one kilometer in and then I passed the Ontario skier. I was happy to know we were in medal contention,” said Miller. Team BC continued to gain through the relay and took second place. The BC team consisted of Katherine Weaver (North Vancouver), Molly Miller (Kimberley), Hannah Mehain (Vernon) and Eliza-Jane Kitchen (North Vancouver). The men’s relay team obviously fed off the energy of the women’s silver. Julien Locke (Nelson), Colin Ferrie (Kimberley), David Palmer (Revelstoke) and Geoffrey Richards (Rossland) had a similar start to the women and were chasing the pack after the first two legs. When Palmer began the third leg he was in a dead head for third position. “Everyone was going really hard off the start and I managed to get in front for a bit but then I crashed and broke a pole.” In the 15km race earlier in the week, Palmer also broke a pole but, once again he was given a replacement pole by another team on the course. On the final leg Richards started off in fourth position. “I felt good heading out and saw potential to move up. I was just working and fighting hard to catch the leaders.” Ferrie had previously won a gold in the sprint last week. Team BC took four medals in cross-country skiing with Kimberley athletes contributing to three of them.
In the past week Kimberley RCMP noted a spike in thefts in various areas and want to remind the public to lock their vehicles. The first occurred on Saturday morning (Feb 21) in Marysville when two subjects were seen running from an abandon truck around 1:15 am. Police attended, located the registered owner and determined it had been stolen. While following up on that police were alerted to a theft from vehicle, subject(s) had taken a tool box, from pick-up truck. The tool box was recovered a few blocks away. Police attempted to track the suspects by following foot prints in the snow and noted that the tracks lead to a number of vehicles prior to the theft location. On Feb 25 police received a report where a knife was stolen from a vehicle near the downtown core of Kimberley. Two vehicles had been broken into and gone through. On the same day a report was received about a vehicle at Lussier Hot Springs that was damaged and a wallet stolen. Please ensure you keep your vehicle locked and valuables out of sight. Although the police are out in the community actively patrolling areas, public education and awareness is often the key to curtaining criminal activity.

Winston Blackmore asks court to quash criminal charge L aur a K ane Canadian Press
A leader of a remote British Columbia religious commune is asking the province’s Supreme Court to quash a polygamy charge against him. Winston Blackmore filed a petition to the
court on Friday arguing the charge must be tossed out, less than a month before he was to appear in court to decide on a judge or jury trial. The petition argues the B.C. attorney general improperly appointed Peter Wilson, the special
prosecutor who laid the charge against Blackmore and three other men. It’s a similar argument to one Blackmore’s lawyer successfully made in 2009, when a judge tossed a polygamy charge because of how the prov-
ince appointed its special prosecutor. Lawyer Joe Arvay is once again arguing that a 2007 decision made by an earlier special prosecutor still stands, and the attorney general illegally appointed additional special prosecutors.

rounding polygamy, and if the law was upheld, fair notice that their practice of polygamy must cease,” the petition reads. But then-attorney general Wally Oppal declined to refer the case, instead appointing more special prosecutors until one recommended charges in 2009 against Blackmore and another Bountiful leader, James Oler. Arvay argued at the time that Peck’s initial decision should be the final word on the matter, and a judge agreed and dismissed the case. That prompted the B.C. government to
In 2007, special prosecutor Richard Peck concluded that polygamy was the root cause of alleged problems in the small community of Bountiful, B.C., in the province’s southern interior. But rather than recommend charges, he called for the constitutional question to be referred to the B.C. Court of Appeal, with a likely appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada. “He did so in order that the members of the Bountiful community would have an authoritative and expeditious judicial resolution of the legal controversy sur-

launch a constitutional reference case, which ultimately ended with a B.C. Supreme Court judge concluding that the law making polygamy illegal don’t violate the religious protections in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Then in 2012, Shirley Bond, the attorney general at the time, appointed Wilson as a special prosecutor. He approved charges against Blackmore and Oler in August. Blackmore and Oler became leaders of separate factions in Bountiful when the religious community split a decade ago. Blackmore is accused of 24 marriages, while Oler is accused of four marriages and is charged along with two other people with unlawfully removing a child from Canada for sexual purposes. The allegations have not been proven in court. The petition not only calls for Blackmore’s charge to be dropped, it also argues that Wilson’s appointment should be ruled invalid and costs should be paid to Blackmore. Crown spokesman Neil MacKenzie said he was aware of the petition but it would not be appropriate to comment on the “content or issues” it raises at this time. “The prosecution in question remains before the court and is in the hands of Mr. Wilson as special prosecutor,” he said in an email.

Shelby Schiller of BJ’s Restaurant in Kimberley is headed to the finals of the Granite Stone Soup Challenge, winning the semi-final on Friady over Doug Wagner of the St. Eugene Mission. Shelby’s winning soup was a tomato beef vegetable.
Kimberley’s Shelby Schiller to finals of Granite Stone Soup Chef
CRANBROOK – Over the last two weeks seven top chefs from restaurants in Cranbrook and Kimberley went head-tohead in soup-making competition at the Salvation Army Soup Kitchen, using only the donated ingredients on hand. Today, concluding five memorable culinary cook-offs, soup feasts, and chef match-ups, the Salvation Army clients cast their final vote. Chef Doug Wagner of St. Eugene Mission Resort produced a crowd pleaser, preparing a delicious BBQ chicken soup. But it was five votes shy of Schiller’s Tomato Beef Vegetable soup. This means next Wednesday, Chef Shelby Schiller of BJ’s Diner and Creekside Pub in Kimberley will go against Kathy Morey, Salvation Army cook, for the
title of Kootenay Granite Stone Soup Chef 2015. “I heard from Doug on Monday that there had been ground beef in the Salvation Army kitchen, so I was hoping it was still there and that I’d find some cabbage today,” said Chef Schiller. “And I did! The soup I made is a family soup that has been passed down through the generations. It was really nice to be part of this event, share my cooking, and get to see people enjoying my soup.” Both Schiller and Wagner were strategic in their approach and wanted to cater to the Salvation Army guest’s taste, which seemed to trend towards hearty, protein-rich soups with distinct flavour. “My goal today was to make something unique from what I made last
week,” said Wagner, who won his initial round with a cheeseburger chowder. “I was surprised at actually how different the foods were today from what was here last week, which really speaks to the volume of meals this kitchen is putting out.” Morey and Schiller will compete at the grand finale event on March 4, noon to 1:30 p.m. at the Prestige Rocky Mountain Resort and Convention Centre. Tickets to the public event are available in two prices: $25 for lunch; or, $45 for lunch and a $20 charitable receipt. They can be purchased with cash at Max’s Place or by calling 250426-1119. “It was a really good event,” said CJ, a Salvation Army guest who sampled all soups in the competition and cast his
vote after every chef challenge. “I liked trying the different soups and it was fun voting on your favourite. I looked forward to coming in for lunch and knew we might get to try something a bit different. I hope we get to have this here again.” The Prestige Rocky Mountain Resort and Convention Centre is sponsoring the final event, as well as providing the Grand Ballroom, staff, and food at no cost, ensuring 100 per cent of proceeds from ticket sales go directly towards the Salvation Army homeless shelter project, as well as the Cranbrook and District Community Foundation general endowment fund, which provides annual grants to local non-profits.
Suspicious fire in Cranbrook For the Bulletin
Cranbrook RCMP responded to a report of a home on fire in the 1400 Block of 30th Avenue North, shortly after 0530 this morning. Police arrived to find a home engulfed in flames. Occupants of the residence were able to escape the burning
building without injury. During the course of the investigation onscene, police also determined that there were multiple other suspicious fire starts in the same residential area near the scene of the initial blaze. Police believe that these fires were deliber-
ately set, and as such, are investigating these incidents as criminal acts. Cranbrook RCMP Staff-Sergeant Dave Dubnyk expressed relief that no one was injured, and voiced the concern of all emergency responders about the possible tragic con-
sequences of such a despicable act. Residents of the area who may have seen anything suspicious, or have information about the identity of those responsible are asked to contact the Cranbrook RCMP at 250-489-3471, or Crimestoppers at 250-489-8477.

Opinion/Events
As a daily visitor to Idlewild Peace Park I was disappointed to hear the news that City Council has decided to decommission the dam and drain the lake. Perhaps what disappoints me most is how such a significant discussion was had behind closed doors. Mayor Pratt’s Monday night announcement on the decision and the press release the following day did not mention the likelihood of the dam to fail. Is this level of closed-door secrecy a preview of how the new Mayor and Council intend to arrive at Cranbrook’s conten-
“E
tious decisions to avoid the democratic process? If high consequence dams are to be inspected annually does the City have a report by MFLNRO recommending immediate decommissioning? The Information Package for the Five-Year Financial Plan certainly did not provide any indications that an engineering project to this magnitude was on the radar. The City has allocated $660,000 of the Reserve Fund to “Idlewild [sic] Lake dredging/ dam repair” yet with a $2.5 million price tag estimated for the project I can’t help but wonder how long the lake will be left as a trickle if the City is relying on city
groups and the RDEK for the remaining money? As a park visitor, I feel the benefits assigned to preserving the lake have been under-valued. I want to know what the Urban Systems 2014 report presented as other options for the dam’s future and how City Council selected this route as the most reasonable plan. If this was not an easy choice for Mayor Pratt and Council, and our views are valued, can the city provide us with more information before draining the lake? Laura Branswell Cranbrook
A murder in Moscow
very time I call (my mother),” said Russian opposition leader Boris Nemtsov recently, “she gives me a talking-to: ‘When will you stop being rude about Putin? He’ll kill you.’” Now Nemtsov is dead: four bullets in the back as he was walking home in Moscow with his girlfriend on Friday night. The protest march against Putin and the war in Ukraine that he was planning to lead on Sunday became a memorial march instead. So, two questions. Did President Vladimir Putin order the assassination? And if he didn’t, then who did, and why? The hit was carried out with professional skill only three minutes’ walk from Red Square, St. Basil’s Cathedral and the Kremlin, in an area that is infested day and night by militia (police) on constant alert to break up demonstrations. You could put together a feature-length film with the footage from the countless CCTV cameras that tracked Nemtsov’s walk across the square and down to the bridge where he died. It took accurate intelligence to know where Nemtsov would be on Friday night, and serious organisation and planning to carry out the killing in such a heavily policed area. That points to members of the military or security forces, though not necessarily to ones who were acting on official orders. Because the first thing to say about this murder is that it did not serve Putin’s purposes. No doubt the Russian president disliked and despised Nemtsov, but neither he nor any other opposition leader posed any threat to Putin’s power. Thanks in large part to his seizure of Crimea and his military intervention in eastern Ukraine, Putin is currently en-
joying an 85 percent approval rating with the Russian public. Why risk upsetting this happy relationship with the first public killing of a senior political figure in more than a decade? It’s much more likely that the killing was carried out by serving or former soldiers or intelligence officers who took it upon themselves to eliminate an “anti-patriotic” politician who condemned “Putin’s War” in Ukraine. In the superheated atmosphere of nationalist paranoia that currently prevails in Russia, such people could easily imagine that they were doing just what Putin secretly wanted. Putin is too clever to want that, and immediately condemned the killing as “vile and cynical.” It was a curious choice of words: “vile”, of course, but why “cynical”? The reason became clear when various senior regime members Gwynne began hinting that the murder Dyer was a “provocation” by the Western intelligence services or even by Nemtsov’s own opposition colleagues, killing him to stimulate dissent and bring the Russian state into disrepute. This murder will have no permanent impact either on Russia’s internal politics or on its relations with the rest of the world. The paranoid style is now so deeply entrenched in Russian politics that people who support Putin (i.e. most people) will either believe the nonsense about Nemtsov’s murder being a “provocation”, or be privately glad that Putin acts so decisively (as they imagine) to protect Russia from its myriad enemies. As for the rest of the world (or at least the “western” part of the world), it has already written Putin off as a man you can do business with. The Russian leader is, in many Westerners’ eyes, an expansionist

The late Boris Nemtsov is pictured being arrested in Moscow on July 31, 2010, for taking part in a peaceful demonstration in support of basic human rights in Russia. warlord who can only be contained by sanctions and threats. It may even take a new Cold War to stop him. Paranoia, alas, is a communicable disease. The Western narrative that seeks to explain how, in less than a year, we have arrived at a point where the United States is contemplating supplying heavy weapons to Ukraine to kill Russian troops, has several large gaps. The first is that the revolution on the Maidan in Kiev last winter overthrew a legitimately elected Ukrainian president only a year before the next elections were due. Putin initially accepted that outcome (with the elections moved up to only one month in the future), which was brokered by the European Union. In other words, he accepted the illegal overthrow of the pro-Moscow president, Viktor Yanukovych, so long as free elections followed rapidly. Quite possibly because he thought Yanukovych’s supporters in the east might boost him back into the presidency again. That same thought may also be why the revolutionaries in Kiev broke the deal and insisted on Yanukovych’s immediate
removal from power. It was only then that Putin concluded that he was faced with a Western plot to whisk Ukraine into NATO and create a strategic and political threat on Russia’s southern frontier. There was no such plot: NATO has not the slightest desire to assume responsibility for the defence of Ukraine. But there was a great deal of open Western rejoicing at Russia’s discomfiture, and Putin lost his customary cool and responded with the annexation of Crimea and then the encouragement of pro-Russian rebels in southeastern Ukraine. “Absolute power corrupts absolutely,” said Lord Acton. “All great men are bad.” In that sense, Putin is a bad man, and more dangerous for being both paranoid and increasingly isolated. (His circle of advisers has dwindled to a handful of hawks.) But he is not planning to conquer even Ukraine, let alone the rest of the former Soviet empire, and he almost certainly did not order Nemtsov’s death.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
The switch to DST was not easy and led to much argument in jurisdictions all over the world. One intriguing argument against it was put forward by Lord Balfour in Britain. “Supposing some unfortunate lady was confined with twins and one child was born 10 minutes before 1 o’clock. ... the time of birth of the two children would be reversed. ... Such an alteration might conceivably affect the property and titles in that House.” In the spring, for one night there is a gap when no babies are born at all: from 2 a.m. to 3 a.m. — a baby black hole. In November 2007, Laura Cirioli of North Carolina gave birth to Peter at 1:32 a.m. and, 34 minutes later, to Allison. However, because Daylight Saving Time reverted to Standard Time at 2 a.m., Allison was born at 1:06 a.m. Thus the older child was born later than the younger. Here is an even more interesting DST nugget of knowledge. In September 1999, the West Bank was on Daylight Saving Time while Israel had just switched back to standard time. West Bank terrorists prepared time bombs and smuggled them to their Israeli counterparts, who misunderstood the time on the bombs. As the bombs were being planted, they exploded — one hour too early — killing three terrorists instead of the intended victims — two bus loads of people. I have lost count of pros and cons at this point. I am so confused. I hope I remember to set my clock ahead this Sunday.

Split wheat in Manitoba Kootenay Ice grab two of four points against Brandon Wheat Kings
Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor
The Kootenay Ice wrapped a four-game eastern road swing by splitting a two-game set with the Brandon Wheat Kings this past weekend. Friday night, the Ice used the shootout as the avenue to victory for the second game in a row, edging the Wheat Kings 3-2 courtesy Jaedon Descheneau’s skills-competition tally. The Ice previously defeated the Regina Pats 5-4 in the shootout Wednesday. Saturday, the Wheat Kings exacted revenge, knocking off the Ice 6-4. “I liked our team’s play [Friday] but [Saturday] I didn’t think we had any competitiveness,” said Kootenay Ice head coach Ryan McGill Sunday afternoon. “Some of our guys had the mentality that they were satisfied with only having to get two points. It was right there for us. “We know how desperate we are for points. I’ve said before, sometimes this team isn’t committed. We’re only going to go as far as they want to go.”
Ice goaltender Wyatt Hoflin turned in a 32save, first-star performance to backstop his team to victory Friday. The 20-year-old native of Sherwood Park, Alta., also turned aside three of four attempts in the shootout, the lone goal coming off the stick of Rihards Bukarts. Bukarts forced the ov e r t i m e period with his 28th of the season with 3:27 to play in regulation after Ice forward Matt Alfaro had put the Ice ahead 2-1 midway through the third period. Ice captain Sam Reinhart opened the scoring with a power-play tally in the second period, before Wheat Kings forward Morgan Klimchuk tied the game 1-1 in the final minute of the second. Saturday, it was Peter Quenneville’s time to shine as the 20-year-old
Edmonton native tallied scored twice, including the game-winning marker, in a 6-4 Wheat Kings win. Hoflin was yanked after giving up three goals on 11 shots, as Jayce Hawryluk, Bukarts and Ivan Provorov combined to chase the Ice netminder after only eight minutes of action. Keelan Williams came on in relief, turning aside 28 of the 30 shots directed his way. Despite the efforts of Williams, a two-goal response from Tim Bozon and a third-period rally fuelled off goals from Rinat Valiev and Jaedon Descheneau, the Ice came up short as Klimchuk sealed the victory with an empty-net goal. Goaltender Jordan Papirny made 27 stops for the win Saturday. The Ice get back to

practice Tuesday in preparation for a Friday home date against the Red Deer Rebels. With eight games remaining on the slate, the Ice sit in the Eastern Conference’s first wildcard slot, holding a seven-point cushion on the Edmonton Oil Kings. The Oil Kings have two games in hand on the Ice. “We want to be consistent with out play,” McGill said. “I’d like to see a few players play with more courage in hard areas of the game so that when we go into the playoffs, we can rely on everybody. “I shouldn’t have to squeeze it out of them. It should come from within the group. It should come with having the will to win and having the will to succeed and do really well. At this point, I’ve said it before, the team’s got to take over from the coaching staff at some point and we haven’t seen that yet.” For the Kootenay Ice, the final eight games of the season all come against Central Division opponents: Calgary Hitmen (2), Lethbridge Hurricanes (2), Medicine Hat Tigers (2), Red Deer Rebels (2).

The second round of the KIJHL playoffs kickstarted Sunday in Fernie and the Kimberley Dynamiters picked up where they left off in round one, earning a 5-2 victory over the Fernie Ghostriders to take a 1-0 lead in the best-of-seven Eddie Mountain Division final. “We played a really good first period and then the second [period], a lack of discipline -- too many penalties -kind of got them going and they played hard

after that,” said Kimberley Dynamiters head coach Jerry Bancks Sunday. “It was exactly what we expected. It was great for the fans, great for the area. This is going to be a barn-burner of a series. Game 1 was definitely a barn-burner.” The Dynamiters capitalized in the first period, building a quick 2-0 lead. “Our first period was somewhat chaos,” Fernie head coach and general manager Craig Mohr told Sara Moulton of the Fernie Free Press. “Credit to them. They came out and played a great first period. They got on us, they were getting to loose pucks before us.” Braden Saretsky tallied a power-play marker before Coy Prevost blasted a puck past Ghostriders goaltender Jeff Orser for a two-goal advantage after 20 minutes. Justin Peers got the hosts on the board late in the second period, taking a Cole Keebler pass and snapping a shot low past the blocker of Nitros goalie Tyson Brouwer. As much as stealing home ice from the Ghostriders features as a key storyline for the Dynamiters after Game 1, perhaps the key to how the series plays out from here comes in the status of Brouwer. Brouwer did not return for the third period after suffering what Bancks classified as a lower-body injury. Brody Nelson finished the game with Brouwer out of action. “[Brody] is a quality
goaltender who hasn’t had a lot of playoff opportunity,” Bancks said. “He was ready. He made one of the best saves I’ve seen all year and he was very calm in there. I’m excited for him to get the opportunity. I feel awful for Tyson because he was on a roll. “That’s hockey. Someone’s misfortune is opportunity for someone else. I believe in Brody. He will carry us.” Brouwer will be re-evaluated Monday. Ghostriders defenceman Dan Burgess tallied his first KIJHL goal with a long point shot that found a way past Nelson 11:14 into the third period, tying the game 2-2. With time winding down and 553 fans in the Fernie Memorial Arena preparing for overtime, Eric Buckley took a long stretch pass from Alex Rosolowsky before breaking in and going high glove on Orser. Buckley’s goal gave the Nitros a 3-2 edge with 4:23 remaining. Game 2 between Kimberley and Fernie is set for 7:30 p.m. Monday at the Fernie Memorial Arena. “We go to Game 2 and we said all year we don’t lose two in a row. We worked on that all year for reasons like this,” Mohr said. “[Monday] is a new day. We get back to it. We’ve got to play better than them and get a win. That’s what’s beautiful about the playoffs.” Visit dailytownsman. com/kijhl/ for more.

Tonight: Create fun. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You might be confused about which direction to head in. Return calls before you initiate a set of plans. What you hear could color your choices. The unexpected is likely to be in your favor, even if you doubt it. Opportunities could present themselves. Tonight: Full of fun.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You see a situation very differently from how the majority of people see it. You could have difficulty convincing others of your perceptions. Use caution when dealing with your finances. Avoid risk-taking, and work with the unexpected. Tonight: Pay bills first. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You feel empowered and will need to act like it as well. Use your high energy to straighten out a problem with a key associate or partner. This issue could revolve around money. You might be stunned by where this person is coming from. Tonight: As you like it. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Reflect before making a choice or scheduling your day. You might feel as if you don’t want to deal with a contentious associate.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You might want to change directions and understand what is happening with someone whom you must answer to. Your responsiveness will be remembered in the long run. Be willing to chip in as much as needed, but don’t run over another person. Tonight: In the limelight. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You will see events in a new light.

Tonight: Enjoy brainstorming with a friend who has a clear vision. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You’ll want some quality time with one person. You know

Tonight: Set the mood for an important chat. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might believe that your plans are set, but you quickly will find out otherwise. Unexpected developments open the door to change. You could see a personal matter very differently, given some time. Meanwhile, be responsive to calls. Tonight: With favorite people. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You’ll want to start a conversation, but you might find it difficult. An unexpected situation will open up many possibilities for you. Be careful when dealing with your personal finances. Try not to be so willing to say “yes” immediately. Tonight: Beam in more of what you want.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My husband’s sister controlled his mother’s finances. “Carol” paid the nursing home with her mother’s credit card and gained reward points, which she used for vacations while Mom was still alive. My husband was the one who handled doctor visits, brought Mom to our home for dinner and did all of the necessary errands. Carol told me she would not care for Mom if her money ran out. When Mom died, she left a small estate that took Carol over a year to distribute, and she kept a few thousand dollars in a separate account. Carol recently announced that she is going to have a memorial for Mom, and we would rent a nice cottage on a lake so we could scatter Mom’s ashes where she had enjoyed many summers. That’s fine. But Carol proceeded to put a deposit down on a big cottage, made a list of everyone she wanted to attend and then informed my husband that we would have to get our own cottage at our own expense. I have never seen my husband so angry and upset. Once he had calmed down, I suggested he call Carol and tell her off. Instead, he said this is just her personality and forget about it. My husband has always been the whipping boy for Carol. He tells me to find it in my heart to forgive, but I’m tired of forgiving this type of cruel and selfish behavior. I refuse to go to this memorial, because I view it as one last vacation on Mom’s dime. I told my husband to go without me, but I know I’ll resent it if he goes, and he’ll resent me if he stays. I really need some help dealing with this last slap in the face. -- Stunned Once Again Dear Stunned: You are thinking of this as a favor for Carol, but it is really for your husband. He wants to attend the memorial and have your emotional support. By refusing, you are only hurting him. Carol won’t care whether you are there or not. We agree that she is behaving terribly, but it serves no purpose to rile up your husband by emphasizing Carol’s mistreatment and selfishness. It won’t change her. It will only make your husband more unhappy. Please go with him and let him deal with Carol as he chooses. Dear Annie: I am eight months pregnant. It floors me how many friends say, “Wow, you’re getting so big” every time I see them. Recently, I overheard someone tell a pregnant woman, “You look a lot bigger than with your last one.” Most women I know are not thrilled about gaining weight, even during pregnancy, and it is easy to be self-conscious about our changing shape. We don’t need such insensitive comments. I know these people aren’t trying to be hurtful, but who wants to be told they’re huge? If it can’t pass as a compliment, please keep it to yourself. -Pregnant Not Fat Dear Pregnant: People somehow can’t help themselves. They speak before their brains are totally in gear and blurt out offensive comments without meaning to. We hope your letter will encourage folks to think twice, but in the meantime, try to show forbearance. It’s good practice for when you are raising children. Dear Annie: I would like to weigh in on “More Than a Little Grossed Out,” whose cousin’s 14-year-old son still sleeps with Grandma. The boy may believe this is appropriate because he has been conditioned to think this way by his mother and grandmother. It may have started when he was a hard-to-settle infant and was then perpetuated to satisfy their needs. Whether or not there is abuse, it is inappropriate and keeps this boy infantilized. I hope the family can see the potential for harm in what they are doing. -- Appalled in Ithaca, N.Y.

Although our hearts are sad and we will miss her terribly, we can take comfort that she is safe in the arms of her Lord, free of pain and suffering and able to rejoice. Bertha was a woman of great compassion and strength. Everyone who met and knew her were drawn to her bright presence and sense of humour. She could make you laugh when you least expected it. Bertha always tried to make the best of difficult circumstances, she was admired by all her family and friends and even those she met briefly. Bertha was born on March 20, 1934 in Unity, Saskatchewan to Joseph and Theresa Stolb. She moved to Kelowna, BC with her family at the age of 2 and remained there until the age of 18. At 18 she moved to Cranbrook where she met her husband John â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jackâ&#x20AC;? Price. Bertha and Jack were married on December 27, 1954 and raised seven children.

A sharp drop in oil prices and continued low natural gas prices have led to reduced forecasts of drilling activity in Western Canada for 2015. In Victoria, critics of the B.C. government’s push for liquefied natural gas exports have begun to claim that delayed investment decisions by LNG producers are the beginning of the end for the industry in B.C. David Keane, president of the BC LNG Alliance, has worked for major industry players and now represents an association of seven international proponents, Kitimat LNG, LNG Canada, Pacific Northwest LNG, Prince Rupert LNG, Triton LNG, Woodfibre LNG and ExxonMobil. This week he discussed B.C.’s prospects with Black Press legislature reporter Tom Fletcher.

TF: What’s the impact of the recent low oil prices on these kinds of investments? DK: I remind people that these companies are not going to be making long-term economic decisions based on the spot price of crude oil, regardless of whether it is $120 a barrel or $45 a barrel. They’re going to make their longterm economic decisions based on their long-term forecasts. I still think that B.C., in spite of the fact that the price of oil has come down, is in a very good position to be able to capture some of the increasing demand for LNG that’s going to be taking place over the next decade. There are a number of reasons for that. We have a tremendous natural gas supply base, we have a highly educated workforce, we have a very supportive provincial and federal government in terms of producing the natural gas, developing LNG facilities and exporting it to the big Asian markets. Another point I think is worth noting is that we’re in competition with the U.S. Gulf Coast, Australia, East Africa, Middle East and Russia, and when you look the North Coast of B.C., we get about a 25 per cent increase in production capacity simply because of the colder ambient temperature. So the same amount of investment that you might make in Australia or East Africa or the U.S. Gulf Coast, in British Columbia you get a 25 per cent uplift in production. Last but not least is the proximity to Asian markets. When you look at how close we are to those markets, I firmly believe that we’re going to capture a good bit
BC LNG Alliance president David Keane of the increasing demand that will occur in Asia. TF: Premier Christy Clark refers the U.S. being our big competition now. Shell recently made a decision to cancel an Australian project and indicated they were concentrating on B.C. and a U.S. site. Is the U.S. the main competition? DK: I think so right now. When you look at the U.S. Gulf Coast, their LNG tankers have to go through the Panama Canal, and there are still long distances to get to the Asian markets. TF: One barometer of how things are going is gas drilling activity in Northeast B.C. Can you comment on that? DK: If we get just one of these large LNG facilities to declare a final investment decision, that will require the largest single investment ever in British Columbia. And I’ve been saying when I’m asked that we’ll get seven, because we have seven members, that will go to final investment decisions over the next few years, and I think that will increase drilling activity dramatically. We have our internal market in Canada, and our external market is the United States, where the demand for Canadian natural gas is declining. So we have to find a way to get our natural gas to market, which is liquefaction and transporting it to market, primarily across the Pacific. TF: Your alliance is beginning an advertising campaign. What’s the focus of that? DK: The advertising campaign
is meant to help inform British Columbians about what natural gas is, how it’s safely produced and safely transported. It has been safely transported in B.C. for 60-plus years. It’s to help inform people about the benefits that will accrue to the province and to them as a result of development of a robust LNG industry, and about all of the safety aspects, from natural gas production, to pipelines to the liquefaction facilities themselves, to the marine transportation of LNG.
TF: Are pipeline rights of way being settled? DK: Chevron just concluded its 16th agreement with the 16 First Nations that are along the Pacific Trails pipeline, which will serve Kitimat LNG. All of the pipelines are working hard with their First Nations partners and I think that if we as an LNG industry can demonstrate long-term sustainable, real economic value to the First Nations, and when we demonstrate that LNG can be produced in a safe and environmentally sound manner, I think First Nations will support the development of the industry.
TF: The new CEO of Petronas is coming over for another visit soon. Is that an indication that they’re getting close, or that this slump in oil prices isn’t as big a deal as some people make it out to be? DK: I can’t talk specifically about that. But I’m encouraged by what I see with all of our members, in terms of the work that they’re doing to move their projects forward.
