Wildlife detection systems planned for Hwy 3
SHANEKOYCZAN.COM
Shane Koyczan is appearing at the Key City Theatre in Cranbrook on Monday, March 30.
F O R T H E TO W N S M A N
As part of B.C. on the Move, the Government of B.C.’s new 10-year transportation plan, a new high-tech wildlife detection system will be piloted in the East Kootenay. The pilot project is part of government’s ongoing investment of $75 million over the next three years in a new Road Safety Improvement Program. This project falls under Improving Highway Safety, one of 12 key priorities under “B.C. on the Move” program. New high-tech wildlife detection systems will be piloted in different parts of the province in order to find an effective technology solution that can reduce the number of wildlife incidents by better warning motorists about the potential for collisions. “Two wildlife detection systems will be installed this summer on Highway 3 between Cranbrook and Sparwood, in the highest wildlife collision areas on the corridor” said Kootenay East MLA Bill Bennett. “The success of this new technology will be monitored to determine future locations to expand these systems in the East Kootenay to further ensure driver safety.” B.C. on the Move will also continue the expansion of Highway 3 passing lanes east of Cranbrook to the Alberta border.

Trashing deer traps is a crime Courtesy RCMP
On March 6, at about 5:30 am, City of Cranbrook contractors were conducting their early morning rounds to check on the deer traps that had been strategically placed throughout the city. In doing so, the contractors discovered that sometime overnight, four traps had the netting slashed making them unusable. The vandalism resulted in a considerable repair cost and the cull program had to be halted.
The RCMP would like to remind the general public that, in spite of personal opinions and beliefs, damaging these deer traps constitutes a criminal offence and will be fully investigated. “Implementing a deer cull program within a municipality will always be controversial,” said Staff Sgt. David Dubnyk. “Peaceful demonstrations to express opinions are always welcome however criminal activity of any sort will not be tolerated.
Dubnyk added that the traps in question were placed on private property so individuals trespassing onto this property after dark constitute a second offence. The RCMP are confident there are people out there that know who is responsible for damaging these traps. Those with information are encouraged to come forward to provide that information to the police. The information can also be provided anonymously through Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222TIPS (8477).

Koyczan’s message, poetry, resonates CONTINUED from page 1 “I started touring more in Canada with my own band” he said. “A lot of people hear the word poetry and they tend to run the other direction. Put a musical element in front of it and a lot of people started coming to the shows. So I could start playing festivals, and things like that. That’s when things started to turn a corner for me.” Koyczan is not a one man industry, however. Spoken word is catching on, and a large reason is the power of social media and the internet that gives artists their own marketing potential. “There are a ton of great new Canadian voices,” Koyczan said. “They’re everywhere, and they’re popping up every day. “One of the qualms I have with the publishing industry is they rely on authors who have proven sales, rather than taking a chance on new voices and getting

those new voices out there. A lot of us have started carving out our own paths, especially in this technological age, where we can start putting out our own books, our own albums. We don’t have to wait for a label to get behind us to start doing that. Social media has changed a lot of that for us.” Koyczan is a prolific artist. He has produced several books and albums of his work. His book “Stickboy” was turned into an opera, performed by the Vancouver symphony (with Libretto by Koyczan). His poetry is frequently animated, and regularly appears online on his Youtube channel. His latest album (and book and graphic novel) “Silence Is A Song I Know All the Words To,” was released last year, and continues his theme and message of dealing with the negative, in particular bullying, and finding joy in your own humanity.

“It deals with some pretty heavy subject matter, for sure, but it’s necessary,” says Koyczan, who dealt with depression and bullying issues himself growing up. “There’s a lot of people out there talking about it, but there’s not a lot of people trying to explain what it feels like. I consider it sort of an exchange of empathy. Here’s what I’m offering, and you can take from that what you can. “But with every album I do I always trying to go deeper, to a deeper place than the previous one.” Koyczan took a moment to discuss his writing process. “I write every day. But sometimes it’s for five minutes, sometimes it’s for five hours. Just depends what comes. I’m always turning something over in my head. It’s starts with an idea, then I start building the metaphor, and stuff like that. But before I even touch pen to paper, I’ve thought about it for months. I never just sit down and write something that I
didn’t plan out or think about for a long time. And when I do finally sit down and write, I write backwards. I start with the ending and write towards the beginning. “I start with the last thing I want to say to people, the last image I want to leave them with. The summation of what I want to say. So that way, as I write towards the beginning, that metaphor is still there at the end. That’s the fine sharpened point of the nail I’m driving in.” Despite the powerful tool social media can be for artists, for others it can be a double-edged sword — in particular for youth who are navigating social minefields anyway. For example, Koyczan says a lot of people have asked why he didn’t write about the cyber aspects of bullying ( he has addressed this on his new album, particularly with a piece called “Troll”). “The simple answer is because I didn’t grow up with that,” he said. “I’m lucky, I escaped that. Computers weren’t as prevalent (when I was
growing up), home was still a very safe place. But the more letters I got from kids, the more they were saying home is not a safe place anymore. Your social media gets invaded. Kids are getting text messages saying they should kill themselves? Unbelievable! “So it was a very important thing for me to address,” Koyczan continued. “A lot of people say trolling is just for fun, but you’re really going out there and picking at people and saying that that isn’t going to cause harm. “Just because you are wearing a mask doesn’t mean you can beat up on people, but that’s the mentality, that anonymous mob mentality. It’s the coliseum all over again. The mob mentality of cyber-anonymity is something that can be contacted by re-establishing a face-to-face connection. “Something I’ve wanted to do is some kind of special, with kids who are getting cyberbullied, track down the

Show them and say, ‘here’s what you’re doing. Are you still okay with that?’ It’s facing up to what you’ve done.

Cabinet Minister addresses business leaders Trevor Crawley
James Moore is optimistic for the future. That was the message from Canada’s federal Minister of Industry, as Moore delivered a keynote address to business leaders and local politicians at a special Cranbrook Chamber of Commerce meeting on Wednesday afternoon. Moore, who is the MP for Port Moody— Westwood—Port Coquitlam, has served in Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s cabinet since 2008, first as Minister of Canadian Heritage and then as Minister of Industry since 2013. In his address, Moore focused on the state of the economy, touching on the economic recovery from the 2008 recession, the benefits of free trade agreements with countries around the world and the barriers to inter-provincial trade within Canada. In front of a crowd featuring Cranbrook Mayor Lee Pratt, City Councillors Wes Graham and Danielle Cardozo, along with Kootenay East MLA Bill Bennett, current Kootenay-Columbia MP David Wilks and former MP Jim Abbott, Moore touched on the Canada’s economic health internally and its place in the global marketplace. “I think we have a lot to be proud of as Canadians about where we are,” said Moore. “The Canadian economy is prosperous, it is growing. We have for the past decade, we have led G7 countries in economic growth, we have the lowest debt-to-GDP ratio in all the G7. We have the best jobs numbers in all of these countries since the dearth of the recession. 1.2 million net new jobs have been created
since the recession and the world has taken notice.” Moore noted that Canada has a AAA credit rating, the soundest banking system in the world as rated by the World Economic Forum and the most tax competitive economy in the world for business startups. As examples, Moore pointed to billion-dollar investments by Chrysler and Ford into manufacturing in Ontario and added that Burger King, currently headquartered in Florida, will be moving to Ontario in order to launch global operations. Moore also trumpeted the achievement of a balanced budget despite economic uncertainty. “We are the only country in the world that is approaching a bal-
anced budget, we have effectively a balanced budget—we will definitely have a balanced budget when we table our budget this spring— but we’re the only country to balance our budget without raising taxes,” Moore said. “And better than that, not only did we not raise taxes, we lowered taxes. The only country in the world by a wide margin.” However, while Moore celebrated the state of the economy he also had a warning. “The greatest threat to the Canadian economy can actually be summarized in one word, and that’s complacency,” Moore said. “It’s the assumption that we will always have it as good as we have it today, no matter what.” On the subject of the economy, Moore
touched on free trade agreements that Canada has with the U.S. and Europe that gives access to the economies of 43 countries around the world. While he touted access to the global marketplace, Moore also lamented the barriers of inter-provincial trade. By example, he brought up the ban on cross-border sales of wine and alcohol. While provinces legislate the ban to protect the beer and wine producers, it prevents growth and expansion to larger markets, he said. “That’s good local politics, but it’s horrific economics,” Moore said. Another example he dropped was that due to Canada’s free trade agreement with Europe, Europeans can bid for
PUBLIC NOTICE
A GOOD PLACE TO BE.
Canadian government contracts, and Canadians can bid for European government contracts. However, a British Columbian can’t bid for inter-provincial government contracts. “This is not good for Canadians, this is not good for the Canadian economy,” Moore said. Compounding the problem is that a solution to removing those
inter-provincial trade barriers requires each and every single province and territory coming together in agreement. Rural broadband was another topic Moore touched on, noting that the East Kootenay region is one are of the country that has struggled with the needed infrastructure for highspeed internet access. He also teased that
the federal government would be making an announcement towards June for broadband access in the region. “Digital connectivity is an essential part of making sure this country stays prosperous and we keep moving forward and that rural and remote communities really and truly feel a part of the Canadian family,” Moore said.

Kimberley, you’ve gone too far!
N
ow see here, Kimberley! Your plan to alter the highway sign at the Wasa junction to your benefit is just not cricket. Nosirree! The sign, which has been there since before the dawn of time, is a perfectly fine example of the species. It says “Kimberley this way, Wasa this way, Cranbrook this way, Fernie this way.” But oh no! You now insist on having your fair share of the sign read “Kimberley AND Cranbrook this way” — at the top of the sign, Kimberley, at the top of the sign! Kimberley, you’re just going to confuse all those “non-valley” motorists, who you claim have no idea that there are two ways to Cranbrook — one through Kimberley. Perhaps that is your base intention. All those hapless tourists motoring down from Hinton, Alberta, looking to get to Cranbrook as soon as possible? They’ll see your “sign” and they’ll get confused and they’ll turn onto the perilous goat track that is your Highway 95A and before they know it they’ll be in Kimberley! Sure, it’s “on the way” to Cranbrook, but you will divert them into the lobster trap that is your Platzl, or the Isle of the Lotus Eaters that is your ski hill, or your thrice-cursed Nature Park, and then, and then, and then WHEN are they going to get to Cranbrook? And how much money are those Hinton tourists going to have left in their pockets, Kimberley? How much money! (!!) (?)! Those are our tourist dollars, Kimberley! Those Hinton motorists packed their
pockets with good Alberta money to spend in Cranbrook , and they were driving here as fast as they could to spend it in Cranbrook, to boost our economy, maybe save it! But you’re planning to pick their pockets clean before they get here! You’re stringing up a big gill net upstream of our fishery. OUR fishery, Kimberley! And we’re not going to stand for it! Cease and desist, we say! What’s that? You will not Cease and Desist? You will continue to play your sign game? Fine! Two can Barry play at it! Do you know what we’ll do? This! Coulter You know that sign outside of our town that says “Hey, if you want to go to Kimberley and don’t want to go through Cranbrook AT ALL, turn this way — you get to see our beautiful sewage ponds either way”? We’re going to take that sign down, and replace it with one that says “To get to Kimberley, drive through Cranbrook, drive to Creston, turn north towards Crawford Bay, turn east at Gray Creek, and take the Gray Creek Pass. Kimberley — Six Hours!” That’s right! And then we’ll put up a big billboard that says “To Break Up The Monotony Of Your Six Hour Trip To Kimberley, Stay And Play In Cranbrook!” And then we’ll funnel them into the lobster trap that is our — you get the picture, Kimberley? You may be holding our Hinton, Alberta, tourists as hostage, but we’ll be using your Taber, Alberta, tourists as our human shield. What’s that you say? The original sign
There’s only one thing wrong with the sign the way it is — it should be in alphabetical order. has been that way for so long because of the “longstanding Kimberley/Cranbrook rivalry?” (You mean the “Cranbrook/Kimberley rivalry”!) Well, that’s so like you to say that! Rivalry indeed. What hogwash! That’s just something you came up with because you Kimberlarians are slighter and less strapping than us manly Cranbrecians, because your mothers were not educated and ours were, and because your natural station in life is to tend to our flocks of backyard chickens, if we can ever afford to get any! So, Kimberley, stop your crazy scheme before this nuclear situation escalates. It will be your fault if it does! We’re just protecting our legitimate sign interests!

Opinion/Events Letters to the Editor
Aboriginal Career Fair
On Wednesday, March 10, my colleagues and I had the pleasure of attending the Aboriginal Career Fair sponsored by the Ktunaxa Nation Council. The purpose of the career fair was to increase the awareness of the diversity of career opportunities in this region in addition to the related education requirements. The event was an excellent opportunity for many students who attended from School Districts 5, 6 and 8. I would like to commend the staff at the Ktunaxa Nation Council and the numerous partners involved in the preparation of the event. These people did an outstanding job of providing a well-organized, informative, and fun day for students. The participants were able to gain firsthand knowledge via representatives from the Oil and Gas Industries, Mining, Lumber, Government, Hospitality, Post-Secondary Institutions and Ktunaxa Nation related programs. All of the presenters were excellent; the information was pertinent and delivered in ways that kept everyone interested. Thank you to everyone who worked so hard to ensure this was such a highly successful event. In speaking with students and staff members of Laurie Middle School, I can tell you it was well worth your efforts. This was one of those days where I was reminded of how proud I am to be part of this community and working in the field of education. Mary Elliott/Alison Farkvam Aboriginal Education School District 5

Israel condemned to perpetual conflict
M
Thursday, MARCH 19, 2015
idway through the election campaign Israel’s leading satirical TV show, Eretz Nehederet, came up with a new take on the man who has dominated the country’s politics for the past twenty years. Binyamin “Bibi” Netanyahu, it suggested, was cursed as a child to be Israel’s prime minister for eternity. His only chance to break the spell was to become its worst-ever leader. Well, if that was his strategy, he has failed again. Despite having run a government that delivered too few jobs, stagnant wages, a rapidly rising cost of living, and a full-blown housing crisis — it now costs the average Israeli 148 months’ salary to buy a home, compared to 66 months for the average American — Israelis voted him back into power in Tuesday’s election. Only a week ago, he was running behind in the polls, but a massive last-minute scare campaign turned it around. On polling day, Netanyahu even put a video clip on his Facebook page in which he warned that “the rule of the right is in danger. The (Israeli) Arabs are moving in droves to the polling stations. Left-wing organisations are bringing them there in buses.” And who was paying for those buses? “American money,” explained Bibi’s campaign team. Bibi is back for up to five more years, which would make him the longest-serving prime minister in Israeli history. But turning the tide had a price, and Israel has not yet begun to pay it. Netanyahu won mainly by cannibalising the vote of the parties to Likud’s right, but that strategy required him to say some things
out loud that he had previously conveyed to his hard-right admirers only by nods and winks. The most dramatic shift came just one day before the election, when he finally said plainly that he would never allow the creation of a Palestinian state. “I think that anyone who moves to establish a Palestinian state and evacuate (Israeli-occupied Palestinian) territory gives territory away to radical Islamist attacks against Israel,” he said. Does that mean that a Palestinian state would not be permitted if he were re-elected, asked the interviewer. “Indeed,” Netanyahu replied. This will come as a vast surprise to practically nobody. Netanyahu’s entire political career has been dedicated to sabotaging the Gwynne 1993 Oslo Accords (which envisaged Israeli and PalesDyer tinian states living side-byside in peace) and planting so many Jewish settlers on the Israeli-occupied territories that a separate Palestinian state becomes physically impossible. He largely destroyed the Oslo agreement in his first term as prime minister in 1996-99 (the creation of a Palestinian state was scheduled for 1998). Almost 10 percent of Israel’s Jews now live in the occupied Palestinian territories (east Jerusalem and the West Bank) that would make up a Palestinian state. But to keep his American allies and his European supporters happy, he never actually said he would not allow an independent Palestine. Netanyahu finally spoke the truth on Monday because that’s what the settlers and their supporters wanted to hear, and he needed those votes in order to survive politically. But it destroyed the myth, useful to the
United States and the European Union, that there is some surviving “peace process” that must be protected by keeping the Israelis happy. The “peace process” is dead, dead, dead. Has been for years. There is no “twostate solution” on the table. This makes it a lot harder for the US to veto resolutions critical of Israel at the United Nations, as it has done 51 times since 1972. Without the cover of peace talks, these vetoes become votes for perpetual Israeli rule over the Palestinian people. And it will accelerate the broader erosion of the old pro-Israel reflexes of people in Europe and the US who needed the reassurance that some day, somehow, there would be a just peace settlement. Netanyahu made matters considerably worse during the campaign by openly showing his contempt for President Barack Obama. His panic-mongering speech to the US Congress, painting Obama’s quest for a nuclear deal with Iran as a naive surrender to Iran’s alleged desire for nuclear weapons, was an unprecedented foreign intervention in the US political process. It will not be forgiven or forgotten by Obama. His election promise to speed up Jewish settlement in the Palestinian territories (which is illegal under international law) was another nail in the coffin of peace negotiations. Still, it did help to get Netanyahu re-elected, and for him that’s all that counts. He still truly believes that only he understands the real and existential dangers facing Israel, and has the will to do something about them. Except that all he ever really does is kick those dangers down the road a bit. Unable to believe that a peaceful settlement is possible or even desirable, he condemns his country to perpetual conflict and growing isolation.

The Kimberley Dynamiters and Kamloops Storm will begin play for the KIJHL championship Saturday, March 21 at the Kimberley Civic Centre. The league released the full schedule for the best-of-seven league championship series Wednesday afternoon. The Kimberley Dynamiters will be appearing in the KIJHL cham-
pionship for the first time since the Kimberley Knights ventured to the league final during the 1979-80 season. The Knights went on to defeat the Trail Smoke Eaters for the 1980 KIJHL championship. Kimberley advanced to the KIJHL championship after defeating the Beaver Valley Nitehawks in Game 5 of the Kootenay Conference final in Fruitvale Tuesday.
The Kamloops Storm join the Dynamiters in the KIJHL final after having blown through the regular-season champion Osoyoos Coyotes in five games of the Okanagan/Shuswap Conference final. This will mark the second consecutive appearance in the KIJHL championship for the Storm, which lost to the Nitehawks in 2014.

Buchy rink returns from juvenile provincials with fresh experience Taylor Rocc a
Alysha Buchy and her Kimberley-based rink may have returned from the 2015 Tim Hortons B.C. Juvenile Women’s Curling Championship in Lake Cowichan (March 5 to 8) without the results they hoped for, but it doesn’t mean their trip was without importance. The Kimberley rink, skipped by Alysha Buchy and rounded out by Haylie Farquhar (third), Kaila Buchy (second) and Arissa Toffolo (lead), finished sixth at the eight-team provincial championship, but they still played their hearts out and left it all on the table as they earned valuable experience. “There’s nothing better than experience,” said coach Tom Buchy. “With these girls going through the two events they went through [high-school provincials and juvenile provincials] plus the zones, they’ve gained so much experience. Next year,
when they’re in certain situations, they’ll say, ‘Yeah, we’ve been here. We know what to do.’ “All in all, they played well and they played hard. That’s curling.”
“There’s nothing better than experience... All in all, they played well and they played hard. That’s curling.” Coach Tom Buchy The girls opened the tournament with a 9-4 victory over the Huitema rink from Kelowna. After that, they dropped back-to-back matches, including a 10-3 loss to the Drexel rink from Coquitlam/Peace Arch/ Cloverdale. The Drexel rink went on to finish the event with an undefeated record of 5-0, claiming the provincial championship. In what ended up
their final outing, the Kimberley ladies dropped a heart-breaking 7-6 loss to the Withey rink (Prince George) in extra ends. That marks the end of the curling season for the Buchy rink. With skip Alysha Buchy aging out of the juvenile category before next season, coach Buchy expects the girls to make the jump to the junior women’s division in the fall. “We’ll prepare them for the next step up to juniors, which is that much tougher,” Buchy said. “There’s some pretty good teams in junior, but [the girls] will all be a year older and more experienced. “For their first year [curling together] the girls did extremely well. They handled the pressure really well and conducted themselves very well on and off the ice. They’re a great group of kids. Winning or losing, they always were really even keel.”

Wide World
Travel: Prague springs eternal
Carla Nelson of Maritime Travel invites you to explore the jewel of Bohemia
B
efore my river cruise last summer, I spent a few days in Prague. This is a beautiful, well restored city with a rich history. To understand how Prague has become a successful, industrialized city that is one of the most visited by tourists, you need to start with the history of the country. Jewish merchants settled in this area over 1,000 years ago. By the mid 14th century, King Charles IV was the Holy Roman Emperor. The Jews became servants to the King, and lived in ghettos. At this time what is now known as the Czech Republic was in Austria and Prague was the capital of Bohemia; Slovakia was part of Hungary. After World War I, the countries were joined as Czechoslovakia. Nazi occupation began in 1939, and under German rule, 80,000 of the 120,000 Jews were killed and buried in layers in one of the largest Jewish cemeteries in the world, located in Prague. In 1948, the Communist Party was in full control and remained so until 1991. In 1967, an attempt at reform, “Prague Spring,” failed and in 1968, Czechoslovakia was invaded by the Soviets, who cement their power. After 41 years of Communist rule, the Velvet Revolution, a gentle revolution led mostly by student groups, succeeded in ending Communism, and by 1993 they voted to split the country into the Czech Republic and Slovakia, as it is today. They joined the European Union in 2004, and are now one of the
strongest economies in Europe. There is only seven per cent unemployment in the country. The number 1 industry is automobile building — Skoda has 25,000 employees. The city of Prague has 1.3 million people and 900,000 cars! Today, you can visit the Prague Castle, largest in the world, built in the 9th century. Or the Cathedral, which was started in 1344 and finished in the 20th century. Walk over the Charles Bridge, named after King Charles IV and built in the mid 14th century. One of the most famous tourist attractions is the Astronomical Clock, built in 1410, and the oldest clock in the world still working. It was invented before Copernicus discovered that planets revolved around the sun, so this clock has Praha (Prague) in the center and the sun revolving around it. At 10 am each day, there is a 30-second show, where the doors of the clock open and the apostles appear, and it ends with a skeleton emerging depicting the message that ‘death is coming’. Prague is also known for great classical music. I happened to stumble upon a performance of Ave Maria at St. Francis Church, complete with pipe organ, which was impressive! There are many other concert halls offering wonderful classical performances, usually complete with period costumes. And you cannot forget beer! Czechs are the number 1 beer consumers in the world — 155 litres per person per year! So it’s not uncommon to find many places offering beer tastings,
like the Prague Beer Museum – Nastrovi! (Cheers!). For more information about the Czech Republic, contact Carla Nelson, Branch Manager, Maritime Travel, 250489-4788.
Prague has survived the centuries with its Renaissance character largely intact

Treatment of Head Injuries By: Dr. Chris Ford BMSc, ND
With concussions being a major concern for athletes and a focal point of many articles in the news in the last few years, let’s take a look at what happens to the brain when a concussion occurs and what you can do to reduce post-concussion symptoms and any further damage. When you hit your head your brain is damaged by making contact with the inside of your skull and can lead to bleeding in the brain which is why it is important to carefully monitor anyone that may have suffered a head injury and seek emergency care if symptoms persist or worsen. A recent study of rat brain tissue showed that at the point of impact on the brain there tends to be a lot of oxidative damage to the cells leading to post-concussion syndrome. In order to reduce the oxidative damage it is essential to treat as soon as possible with potent anti-oxidants such as glutathione. One protocol which includes IV glutathione done three times within the first two weeks after a head injury can drastically reduce the amount of oxidation that occurs in the brain and alleviate the symptoms of post-concussion syndrome. Other anti-oxidant treatment options through diet/lifestyle and supplements can also help. The best treatment for concussions is of course prevention and avoidance if at all possible. It is important that if you are taking part in any activity that may lead to a head injury that you wear the appropriate safety equipment and are assessed properly if anything were to happen.
were very lucky to have avoided the natural disaster that hit many parts of Nepal. They were trekking in the next valley from the disaster and only suffered hiking in six hours of torrential rain and not the snow storm that devastated parts of the Annapurna Circuit and other areas of Nepal. They did not hear about the tragedy until they had almost finished their first trek due to lack of electricity for cell phone service. That one day was the only bad weather for their 6 weeks in Nepal. Since 2009 David and

FACTS You Need to Know About…
BC Firefighters Annual Visit to Victoria With
MLA,
Bill Bennett
1
Every year at the BC Legislature during the Fallen Fire Fighter Memorial Event, we celebrate the lives of the heroic firefighters who paid the ultimate sacrifice. These people chose one of the most dangerous careers in public service and deserve our thanks and deep appreciation.
2
We all know how important these brave firefighters are to our communities, which is why over my time in government, we have recognized heart disease and certain cancers within the Workers Compensation Act as occupational diseases associated with long-term employment as a firefighter.
3
Following the memorial service in Victoria, the firefighters from all around BC meet the MLA’s at the annual firefighter reception and we also hold a business meeting between firefighters and their MLA the next day. It’s the highlight of the Spring Legislative Session for me to visit with the firefighters from Cranbrook and Fernie.
President’s
Report It was very encouraging to hear the regional business and government leaders that participated in the panel discussion at the recent Dave Struthers Chamber luncheon recognize the need for greater collaboration within the East Kootenay region.
strategically choose to cooperate in order to accomplish a shared outcome. Making it work requires a different kind of leadership.
As was suggested during the Chamber panel discussion, individual egos and the “what’s in it for me” mentality need to be parked outside the door, and the focus needs to be on successful delivery of results across boundaries and between different organizations.
Either we act urgently to improve our competitiveness or we will pay a high price in lost jobs and prosperity. Three years ago, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce launched its Top 10 Barriers to Competitiveness. In collaboration with its network of chambers of commerce and boards of trade, the Canadian Chamber has been drawing attention to the barriers that are holding back Canada’s progress and has been urging all levels of government to act more swiftly to improve our country’s ability to compete globally. The Canadian Chamber of Commerce unveiled its Top 10 Barriers to Competitiveness for 2015. “Since launching this initiative, we have made great progress in furthering our competiveness agenda on a number of issues. However, the barrier our members continue to identify as being the greatest impediment to the success of Canadian business is the skills gap,” said Canadian Chamber President and CEO Perrin Beatty. “There is a lot of work ahead. The federal government and several provincial and territorial governments have also named this issue as the country’s biggest challenge.
Bill Bennett, M.L.A.
Addressing the Top 10 Barriers to Competitiveness will go a long way towards restoring Canada’s competitiveness.

The Canadian Chamber is calling on its own membership, on governments, on educators, on labour organizations and others to tackle and overcome these barriers.

Traditional management development paths do not prepare our political, business, and community leaders very well for this approach. Collaboration requires managers to achieve success through people and resources outside their control; they have to learn to trust their partners to deliver, even though those partners may operate very differently from themselves.
Through our ongoing advocacy and economic development efforts, and the synergies created through the strength of the Chamber network both regionally and provincially, the Cranbrook Chamber of Commerce has clearly demonstrated that we are a willing participant in this process, and feel we have a great deal to contribute.
Let’s roll up our sleeves, grab the same end of the rope and pull together!

Faced with a small domestic market, exporting is often the only way to grow sales and build economies of scale. Moreover, sourcing from and investing abroad allows companies to exploit unique technologies, skill sets and cost advantages. However, Canadian businesses are not globalizing as quickly as their peers. To support the expansion of Canadian companies abroad, the federal government needs to build on recent success and take steps to conclude the next wave of high-quality trade agreements and strengthen Canada’s system of trade promotion and economic diplomacy.

The Cranbrook Chamber of Commerce is a long term and very active participatory member of the BC Chamber of Commerce. The BC Chamber of Commerce membership comprises of provincial Chambers and Boards of Trade. The BC Chamber of Commerce has a professionally vetted process to take the concerns and issues of their members, develop policy through a consultative process, and advance them at the Provincial and National level. Below is one of the BC Chamber “Hot Topics” taken from their website. MUNICIPAL BUDGETS Spending restraint is key in local government budgets, which are disproportionately paid for by B.C. businesses. THE ISSUE: Recent years have seen relentless increases in local government spending. These increases are of particular concern to B.C.’s business community, as high business property tax rates have pushed a disproportionate amount of the local tax burden onto businesses. OUR GOAL: The BC Chamber’s goal is to ensure that businesses and residents hold governments accountable during budgeting. WE RECOMMEND: The BC Chamber recommends that local governments hold the line on spending, and increase efforts to deliver value-formoney in municipal expenditures.

The role of the City of Cranbrook, in economic affairs, is to ensure that a competitive sustainable framework is in place within which businesses, existing and new, are encouraged to develop and thrive to their full potential. This framework needs to be transparent, fair, and defensible in order to provide a positive environment to support the private enterprise system. The foundation of this framework is a regulatory, fee, and tax structure that is applied and levied in a manner that withstands a fair and reasonable
To the Future and Beyond During a time of unparalleled worldwide portability of human and fiscal capital it is imperative that Cranbrook is attractive and competitive. Business is like water. It takes the least line of resistance. Cranbrook needs to be a great place to live, work, play, and especially, do business. It is essential that new business and investment flow into Cranbrook and existing businesses not flow away and in fact look to increase their commitment to the local economy. The key for the continued success, and sustainable growth, of the Cranbrook economy is to ensure a
fair and efficient taxation structure and a regulatory model that is encouraging and not onerous. This is essential to make certain that Cranbrook is competitive and viable. Targeted fiscal incentives, in key sectors, is as equally important to ensure a strong, vibrant and sustainable Cranbrook economy as is the overall level of taxation and the distribution of the tax burden.

We all want a solid financial rock under our feet when we retire. The problem is… it can be hard to save for retirement, especially if you are struggling to pay a mortgage, car loan and credit card debt. The solution? Roll it up. You may be able to roll your existing high interest debt into your mortgage. You’ll be shocked by what you can save in interest. •
Let’s say you now have a $175,000 mortgage, a $25,000 car loan and $25,000 in credit cards. That’s a total debt load of $225,000. As long as you’ve got the equity in your home, you can roll that debt into a new $233,000 mortgage (that includes a charge to break the existing mortgage: a fee that is often well worth the savings) and you could knock about $921 OFF your total monthly debt payment. That’s huge.
Here’s where you can start building your financial rock: •
Talk to us about adding an additional $25,000 to your mortgage so you can make an RRSP contribution (assuming you have contribution room). Even with the extra amount on your mortgage, your new monthly payment is STILL $803 per month less. Better still, you’ll be eligible for a $10,000 tax refund for your contribution (assuming a 40% marginal tax bracket).
Now that you’ve got a lower monthly payment and maybe a tax refund, see if you can put some of that extra money against your mortgage principal or into an RESP or TFSA. Roll up your debt. Build your financial rock for retirement.
That’s rock and roll, baby!

World Polio Day is October 24, 2014
MP Kootenay - Columbia
In line with measures taken by our allies, our Government is taking additional action to ensure our law enforcement and national security agencies can: counter those who advocate terrorism; prevent terrorist travel and the efforts of those who seek to use Canada as a recruiting ground; and disrupt planned attacks on Canadian soil. The proposed legislation includes checks and balances to ensure it respects the rights of Canadians and complements other legislation passed by our Government in order to better protect Canadians and secure institutions, including the Combating Terrorism Act and the Strengthening Canadian Citizenship Act. QUICK FACTS The proposed legislation includes a comprehensive package of measures that will: • counter terrorist recruitment by giving our courts the authority to order the removal of terrorist propaganda online; • enhance the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS)’s powers to address threats to the security of Canada while ensuring that courts maintain oversight; • provide law enforcement agencies with enhanced ability to disrupt terrorism offences and terrorist activity; • enhance the Passenger Protect Program by further mitigating threats to transportation security and preventing travel by air for the purpose of engaging in terrorism; • make it easier for law enforcement agencies to detain suspected terrorists before they can harm Canadians and to toughen penalties for violating court ordered conditions on terrorist suspects; • enable the effective and responsible sharing of relevant national security information across federal departments and agencies to better identify and address threats; • Although not part of this proposed legislation, we are also working with communities to prevent radicalization and intervene when individuals show signs of becoming radicalized. • ensure that national security agencies are better able to protect and use classified information when denying entry and status to non-citizens who pose a threat to Canada; and, • provide witnesses and other participants in national security proceedings and prosecutions with additional protection.

By collecting DNA from across the United Kingdom, scientists shed new light on past millennia MALCOLM RIT TER Associated Press
NEW YORK - Genetic samples collected from across the United Kingdom are shedding light on the ancient past, including Viking invasions and a mystery about the arrival of the Anglo-Saxons, researchers report. The DNA also suggests that, genetically speaking, people in Wales are the closest matches to early settlers of Britain after the last ice age, people who began showing up some 10,000 to 11,000 years ago. That’s because the Welsh genetic material has been the least affected by later migrations, said Peter Donnelly of Oxford University, a key author of the research. The work is presented in a paper released Wednesday by the journal Nature. The researchers studied DNA samples from 2,039 white residents of Britain and Northern Ireland, chosen for their family roots in rural areas. The DNA they inherited from their grandparents reflects the genetic landscape of those areas in the late 1880s, researchers said.
To identify signs of ancient immigrations, the researchers consulted DNA samples taken from continental Europeans. Analysis showed that Danish Vikings, who occupied and controlled a large part of England after invading in the year 865, have left no clear genetic heritage today. That suggests they didn’t settle in large numbers, Donnelly said in an email. The study also weighed in on the question of what happened after Anglo-Saxons migrated into Britain from Europe, which began in the fifth century. After they showed up, their language, cereal crops and pottery styles replaced those of the existing British population. So was the British population wiped out or elbowed aside? Or did it simply adopt cultural practices of a few new arrivals? The new study argues instead that a substantial number of Anglo-Saxons showed up and intermingled with the locals, said study co-author Mark Robinson of Oxford. That’s because the study found a clear but limited An-
Cat goes back to South Carolina after turning up 2 years later, 2,000 miles away in California ASSOCIATED PRESS
RIVERSIDE, Calif. - A cat that vanished in South Carolina two years ago is going home after ending up nearly 2,000 miles away in Southern California. Kevin the orange tabby is leaving Palm Springs on Wednesday after disappearing from Anderson, South Carolina, in 2013. John Welsh of Riverside County Animal Services says the cat turned up in early March inside a U-Haul trailer a
woman had driven across the country. During a routine inspection, the inspector heard meowing. The driver says she didn’t know Kevin was inside. The dehydrated cat was taken to a shelter. His microchip helped track down owner Cheryl Walls, who jokes that Kevin has seen more of the country than her. She says somebody must have cared for Kevin. But who - and how Kevin got into the trailer - are mysteries.

much as 71 percent, according the Safe Kids Worldwide organization. Whether you are buying a car seat for the first time or upgrading an existing seat as your child grows, being informed can help with the decision-making process. Access professional reviews A number of organizations rate available car seats on the market. Consumer Reports and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety are just two of the groups that provide ratings that can take the guesswork out of selecting the best car seats. Regulations change frequently, and car seat engineers continually modify designs to keep kids as safe as possible. Frequently revisit car seat reviews to check whether your seat is still receiving high marks or if it’s time to invest in a new car seat. Rear-facing, longer Many experts now advise keeping children in rear-facing car seats as long as possible — even up to age two. These seats are being manufacturered to meet higher weight limits in the rear-facing position. However, always verify the exact height and weight limit for the seat by reading the information booklet or the safety data that is printed directly on the seat. In addition, know how to safely use the seat, including which tethers should be used in which seating positions. Children should sit in the back of the vehicle away from airbags. Learn proper installation Consumer Reports notes that about 80 percent of parents and caregivers misuse car seats in one way or another. Follow the directions for safe seat placement and positioning of tethers and safety belts. You can watch videos online on
how to install safety seats properly, and many seat brands may direct you to an informational video. Some First Aid and police squads offer complimentary seat checks to reassure parents that seats are installed correctly. Older children in booster seats, which are designed to position passengers correctly to make use of the vehicle’s seat belts, should have a proper fit. The lap belt should lie flat and on top of the thighs. The shoulder belt should rest directly in the middle of the shoulder and not too close to the neck.
Know the types of seats Children may go through three or more safety seats before they’re allowed to safely ride using the vehicle’s own passenger restraint system. In addition to infant car seats, manufacturers offer convertible seats, harnessed seats, belt-positioning booster seats, and builtin safety seats. Many children are ready to bid farewell to car seats when they reach about 4-feet-9-inches tall.
Avoid used seats Unless you can verify the full crash history of a car seat, it is best to buy it new rather than from a thrift store or on the Internet from a third party. Although car seats do not “expire” in the traditional sense, they are stamped with a use-by date. Materials in car seats can degrade over time, and harnesses may stretch. It’s wise to replace car seats after several years and treat a new baby in the family to his or her own car seat instead of using a handme-down. Car seats can prevent injuries and death. They’re one of the best safety investments parents can make, as long as they’re researched and used properly.

Motorists routinely check their tires for proper inflation, top off engine fluid levels and maintain oil change schedules. But some drivers do not understand the importance of keeping engine air filters clean. Engine air filters are a relatively inexpensive vehicle part, but they perform a very important job. For every gallon of gas a car burns, it uses the equivalent of 12,000 gallons of air, and that air must be filtered to help keep an engine clean. Air filters catch all of the dust, grime, insects, sap, leaves, and any other debris that may get sucked up past the air intake of the vehicle’s grill and into the engine itself. Without the air filter, those contaminants may compromise the engine, causing corrosion and abrasion. If the air filter in the engine becomes too dirty and is not changed regularly, the engine is starved of air. Clean air filters allow just the right ratio of air to fuel to enable the en-
Air filters need to be changed regularly to maintain the right flow of air into the engine and to protect the engine from debris. gine to function properly. Engines need adequate air for the combustion process to take place. Without the proper combustion levels, vehicles cannot perform properly or efficiently and the engine may burn more gas or get fewer miles to the gallon. A dirty filter also can rob an engine of power. Drivers may notice sluggish acceleration.
Air filters also can get so dirty that the engine stalls completely. But such a problem only develops after considerable neglect. Air filters may not need to be replaced at each and every oil change service call. Many technicians advise replacing the filter every 8,000 miles. However, drivers who live in particularly dry and dusty regions may need
to replace filters more frequently. Mechanics can often detect when an air filter needs to be replaced. If he or she notices the air filter is particularly dirty, then it’s probably time to replace it. Replacing the filter is a relatively inexpensive repair for the amount of performance and peace of mind a new filter provides.
Small engines may have big futures The move is on to produce more fuel-efficient automobiles. Although alternative fuels have garnered significant publicity in recent years, some automakers are simply shrinking the standard car engine. Automakers have been producing three-cylinder engines for some time, but are just now starting to reveal such engines to the public. While these types of engines have traditionally been associated with lawn mowers, mopeds and snowmobiles, a handful of cars are now being equipped with three-cylinder engines to increase fuel efficiency. While three-cylinder engines have had the unfortunate stereotype of being puny next to vehicles touting more under the hood, experts say that advances in engine technology have made it possible for
three-cylinder engines to produce more power with less. Ford, Nissan and BMW are just some of the automakers experimenting with three-cylinder engines while also promoting other innovations to boost efficiency. Streamlined aerodynamics,
carbon fiber and improved horsepower can change public perceptions of cars with engines that have fewer cylinders. In addition to requiring less fuel, three-cylinder engines take up less space in engine compartments, freeing up
more room for interior passenger space. This can create more space in traditionally compact vehicles. Smaller engines can improve safety because there is less risk that the engine will penetrate the interior in a front-end collision. While some three-cylinder vehicles have lackluster responses with acceleration and road performance, others offer comparable horsepower to some larger engines. According to the automotive website Jalopnik, many modern three-cylinder engines offer power comparable to that offered by V8 engines in the 1970s. The three-cylinder offerings may be concentrated to a few brands right now, but the advantages of these smaller engines may make them more prevalent in the years to come.

HOROSCOPES by Jacqueline Bigar
ARIES (March 21-April 19) Someone seems to be watching you more closely than you realize. You could be unusually quiet and have an attitude that might have others wondering what you are up to. Let their imaginations rock and roll, while you go off and do what you want. Tonight: Think “weekend.” TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Evaluate the costs of proceeding as you have been. Some of you might screech to a stop and need to regroup. You probably don’t need to change direction, but some of the bells and whistles might have to go. A family member could have some good news. Tonight: Order in. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Take charge if you want to get through a project or meeting quickly. A conversation will illuminate how someone else feels. A relationship could be transforming right in front of your eyes. Consider initiating a long-overdue conversation. Tonight: Let the party begin.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You might have a different approach to an issue that will intrigue a partner. You could encounter someone who thinks very differently from how you do. Attempt to understand this person’s thought process, and open up to his or her ideas. Tonight: Do something just for you. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You care a lot, and a partner knows that. However, when you try to resolve an issue, you could discover that you seem to be giving up too much. Step back, and remember your boundaries. A loved one might be full of unusual ideas. Tonight: Buy a treat on the way home. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Others seem to come to you with a lot to do and very little time to do it. You could throw yourself right in and help clear up the problem. Make a point of presenting your suggestions in a more creative way. Tonight: A surprise will lead to a fun happening. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Stay on top of what is happen-

ing, and you will find yourself feeling quite shocked by the sudden changes that emerge. A difficult matter surrounding your home life might create a lot of tension. Resolving the issue could be harder than you realize. Tonight: Schedule a massage. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You don’t need to restrain your imagination, but you also don’t need to verbalize everything you think. People might wonder about that twinkle in your eye. A discussion could draw a great deal of intensity. Tonight: Heal a relationship by giving it some quality time. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Express your concern about an intense situation involving your family or domestic life. Since you have only one voice, resolving the issue will take some diplomatic skill. Sooner or later, you’ll need to handle this matter; it isn’t going away. Tonight: Love the moment. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Others respect your opinions. One-on-one relating points to a new direction and different pos-
sibilities. Open up to what could happen if you decide to give others the respect and space they need. You could see evidence of a positive change almost immediately. Tonight: Out late. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Your finances come to the forefront. At this point, you seem to be forced to handle more responsibility than you would like. Could this be because you refused to deal with such matters in the past, as money held so little importance to you? Tonight: Pay bills, then decide. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You’ll beam, and others will be much more in touch with what they think and feel about an important matter that’s close to your heart. A simple conversation with several people will put all of you on the same page, which will increase your effectiveness. Tonight: Make it special.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My dad was a proud veteran of WWII. When he died 20 years ago, he willed his medals to my brother “Jim” and the Bible he carried during the war to my brother “Ray.” Eventually, Ray gave the Bible to Jim. My mother also gave other army memorabilia to Jim, thinking it should all be together. Jim recently informed me that when he dies, he’s passing on all of Dad’s things to “Margret,” his second wife. Margret met my father only once. Jim has no children, but the rest of us do. Several of my nieces and nephews have a keen interest in their ancestry and would love to own these war mementos. I suggested to Jim that he consider passing on Dad’s things to the next generation, but was forcefully told they were going to Margret. I realize that these items belong to Jim now, and he can do what he wishes with them, but I’m extremely upset that such precious memorabilia will end up being lost to us forever. I can’t speak to Jim further about this. Margret was also shocked by Jim’s reaction, but he has forbidden her to talk to us about it. None of us lives nearby, and we cannot see Jim in person. I haven’t shared this information with other family members yet and would hate to involve my mother, because it would upset her. I guess all I can do is hope that Margret will do the right thing and give these items to Dad’s grandchildren when Jim dies. Do you have any other suggestions? -- The Oldest Sibling Dear Sibling: Has Jim had a falling out with the family? Does he expect his nieces and nephews to contact him more often? Does he feel obligated or pressured to leave all of his belongings, including Dad’s things, to Margret? We would first suggest that the nieces and nephews get to know their uncle a bit better. Jim may feel estranged from or neglected by his family. A warmer, closer relationship would benefit everyone. You also should stay friendly with Margret, because she may well be the final arbiter of your father’s things. We agree that it would be a shame for them to end up with strangers. Dear Annie: I am married to an amazing man who is caring and supportive. The problem? His breath. Our sex life isn’t as good as it could be because I can barely kiss him. He complains that I’m not interested enough, but obviously, that’s not the issue. He brushes his teeth, so it might be medical. I think he’s terrified to look into it. How do I get him to see that this is something he needs to address? -- Holding My Breath Dear Holding: Bad breath can come from a lack of dental hygiene, but also from gum disease, infections or even gastrointestinal problems. Most of these are things that can be treated. Tell your husband you are concerned about his health because of his terrible halitosis. Suggest that he see his dentist to check for underlying problems, and if that doesn’t remedy things, that he talk to his doctor. You must be honest and explain that you want to kiss him more, but he first needs to deal with this. Dentists are more sensitive to patients’ phobias these days and will take gentle care of him. Dear Annie: Can I add one final word to the letter from “Traveling Man,” whose husband has developed a phobia about car travel and they don’t vacation together anymore? I don’t understand her thinking. Just because you are married doesn’t mean you are attached at the hip. She should just go by herself. I was married to a wonderful man who didn’t want to travel, so I went without him. He was very happy to stay home and was so glad to see me when I got back. -- Happy Wanderer Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

It is with deep sorrow that the family of Della Gaskell announces her passing on Friday, March 13, 2015 in Cranbrook at 79 years of age. Della was born on July 6, 1935 in Invermere, BC to Bessie (nee Nelson) and Percy Sims. They lived in various towns in the Kootenays before they settled in Cranbrook. Della was always very independent and went to work when she was 14 or 15 years old as a camp cook. Soon after Della was married and had five children who became her lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest passion. While Della enjoyed her time with her children greatly, she also would have her younger sister and nephews stay with her for weeks at a time. Later in life when she married Roy, she embraced his three children and loved them as her own. As her grandchildren and great grandchildren were born she embraced them and encircled them with her deep love. Along the way Della become a great bowler and won many trophies. Her needlework became a great passion as well, but fishing was her favorite pastime. She and Roy spent many happy hours in their boat at Premier, White Swan and Koocanusa Lakes. Della would often catch the biggest fish and loved to tease Roy about it. She loved to play cards too, and delighted in beating Roy at crib, which they played almost every day until her passing. Della loved to dance - especially to country and western tunes. She loved flowers and hummingbirds and Thomas Kincadeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s artwork. She loved her home and kept it beautiful, always surrounding herself with pictures and treasures. Della was a wonderful cook and baker. There were always cookies in the cookie jar! So it would follow that Dellaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career was in the restaurant business. She worked and managed Kentucky Fried Chicken, Orange Julius and Woolworthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s restaurant, always taking pride in the food she prepared as well as the cleanliness of the kitchen.

After battling a rare liver disease and bile duct cancer, Rob passed away at 36 years old. Although he will be greatly missed by his wife (April) and their two children (Braxton and Ana), there is comfort knowing that Rob has forever changed so many people's lives. In his final days, he was surrounded by family and friends who came together to celebrate his life! A night to remember memorial service will be held on Friday, March 20, 2015 at 7:00 pm at Evergreen Funeral Chapel, Edmonton, AB.

NEWS Harper to ask Parliament to extend, expand ISIL mission Murr ay Bre wster Canadian Press
OTTAWA - Prime Minister Stephen Harper intends to ask Parliament next week to “extend and expand” Canada’s participation in the war against the Islamic State, possibly erasing the geographic distinctions that have thus far shaped the conflict. On at least two occasions recently, Defence Minister Jason Kenney has mused that CF-18s could be asked to fly strike missions against extremist targets in Syria. Harper is not ruling out that possibility. Last fall, Parliament approved Canada’s participation in U.S.-led coalition air strikes against the forces of the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), but limited the involvement to Iraq and set a six-month lifespan. The mandate runs out on April 7. “Next week, it is the government’s plan to move forward with a request for Parliament for extension and expansion of the mission,” Harper said Wednesday in Mississauga, Ont. Sources have previously told The Canadian Press that an extension would likely involve a commitment of more than six months, in part so it doesn’t expire during the fall election campaign. Last fall, the motion passed by MPs explicitly ruled out deploy-

ing ground troops for combat operations, although 69 special forces soldiers were assigned to train and advise Kurdish troops. It’s not clear how the special forces mission will be affected by next week’s request. The original Commons motion left commanders with a free hand when it came to the air campaign. But Harper, in his speech on the issue set limits by saying that strikes on targets in Syria would require an explicit invitation from the Syrian government. “The current authorization laid open the possibility of going to Syria although we have not done that,” Harper said Wednesday. “But we’ll address issues like that next week when I make a proposal to the House of Commons.” Only the U.S. and its Persian Gulf allies have flown strikes into Syria, where the dictatorship of Bashar al-Assad has been fighting both Islamic State extremists and a collection of rebel factions in a four-year-old civil war that has left over 200,000 dead. The Americans notify Syria about air strikes, but they insist they don’t co-ordinate activity. A defence source said Canada could follow a similar line, should extended missions be offered. President Barack Obama has a war resolution before Congress, which would expand American

efforts against ISIL and authorize limited, but not “enduring” ground operations. Dave Perry, an senior analyst with Canadian Defence and Foreign Affairs Institute, said he doesn’t expect the Canadian authorization to entirely mirror what’s proposed in Washington, but it will be aimed at giving the government and military maximum flexibility. New Democrat defence critic Jack Harris said it would be breathtaking if the Conservatives proposed removing geographic restrictions “This is an invitation to a far greater conflict than anything Canadians have contemplated,” he said. “They claim ISIL has declared war on Canada. That’s preposterous as a notion. The implications of that for Canada and for the world would be quite astonishing.” Bombing ISIL in Syria would only strengthen Assad’s position, Harris added. The air force has six CF-18 jets bombing Islamic State targets along with two surveillance planes and an aerial tanker operating out of bases in Kuwait. The Harper cabinet doesn’t need Parliament to authorize a renewed commitment at any time, but the Conservatives have sought all-party support in the House of Commons for such missions, even if they have rarely received it.
