The Legendary Eric Burdon and the Animals brought a high energy show of rock, blues and soul to a sold out Key City Theatre Thursday night, April 16. Burdon’s voice was as clear and powerful as almost 50 years ago, when “House of the Rising Sun” became one of the signal hits of the British invasion, and his revue of songs from his career fronting the Animals, War and Greenhorne led to two standing ovations from a raucous crowd.

Get ready for Wilks calls on Cranbrook to the Rotary challenge trade limitations Radio Auction ARNE PE TRYSHEN
TRE VOR CR AWLEY
Get those bidding paddles ready. The Rotary Radio Auction is fast approaching and organizers are busy gathering donated items from across the community for use in their annual fundraiser. On May 6-7, from 6-8 p.m., Cranbrook radio listeners will have the chance to bid on items and raise money for the Rotary Club. Funds raised will go towards a connection path from Rotary Way to the North Star Rails 2 Trails path as well as to other community-oriented projects. The Rotary Radio Auction is a long-time fundraiser with the goal of raising money to invest back into the community, said organizer Sandy Zeznik.

Kootenay Columbia MP David Wilks advised Cranbrook council to challenge inter-provincial trade limitations at the April 15 Chamber luncheon. Wilks was the guest speaker at the monthly meeting which brings Cranbrook Chamber members together. A number of city councillors and the mayor were also in attendance. Wilks noted that in 1994, at the conclusion of the North American Free Trade Agreement, Canada had to create an internal trade agreement between all the provinces and territories. “Unfortunately it didn’t work,” he

said. “And it doesn’t work today. It’s a dysfunctional document.” Wilks said it amounts to protectionism between the provinces. He pointed to agreements like the New West Partnership, between B.C., Alberta and Saskatchewan and the Quebec and Ontario Trade and Cooperation Agreement of 2009, saying they put up walls around those provinces and inhibit trade. He also pointed to issues like each province having a unique gasoline blend requirements and each province having different professional services requirements.
A 27-year-old British man has been sentenced in the U.K. relating to an internet child luring investigation that involved a Cranbrook youth. In November 2012, a young boy in Cranbrook accessed a well-known Internet website to chat and meet strangers while his parents were not home. The boy subsequently connected with a number of strangers he met on the site using the video camera on his laptop. The young boy was coaxed into showing his genitals online by his “new friends”. When the youths parents got home and discovered what had happened they immediately contacted the Cranbrook RCMP.

East Kootenay gets more than $200,000 to fight invasive plants Courtesy Dave Paulsen
idahoweedaawreness.net
The EK Invasive Plant Council and the Regional District have received funds to help in the battle against invasive species such as spotted knapweed
The Invasive Plant Program identifies sites where invasive plant species have been found and responds rapidly to contain and eradicate them before they become established and start spreading. This funding is in addition to the $735,000 already allocated by the Ministry of Forests, Lands, and Natural Resource Operations for invasive plant control and management in 2015-16.

An assessment of the potential avalanche risk from two avalanche paths in Jumbo Valley has determined that the majority of Jumbo Glacier Resort’s Service Building foundation is in a high risk zone. “Dense flow impacts were observed with 10 to 15 metres of the building site,” states the report prepared by Dynamic Avalanche Consulting Inc. dated March 19th. In the report, high risk is indicated by the term “Red Zone” while moderate risk is labelled “Blue Zone” and low risk labelled “White Zone.” The remainder of the Service Building site is located in the Blue Zone. The resort’s Day Lodge foundation is mostly within the Blue Zone with a small portion in the White Zone. “Dense flow ava-

Jumbo building foundations in avalanche risk zones: report
LE • REC YC
Invasive plants are species that have been introduced into British Columbia from other areas. They displace native vegetation and can cause considerable economic and environmental damage. Some pose a health risk to people (e.g. skin irritation). Invasive plants can disrupt natural ecosystems, reduce biodiversity, increase soil erosion, alter soil chemistry and adversely affect commercial crops.

The provincial government is providing $194,000 to the East Kootenay Invasive Plant Council and $23,300 to the Regional District of East Kootenay to help control the spread of invasive plants, Kootenay East MLA Bill Bennett announced Friday. These are among the 29 grants totalling $1,702,000, that are being distributed province-wide to local governments, regional invasive species committees and the Invasive Species Council of B.C. to assist with their activities and support the objectives of the provincial Invasive Plant Program. “Invasive species cause real damage to the environment, but also to our prosperity,” Bennett said. “They cause soil erosion, reduce biodiversity and are harmful to commercial crops. Controlling invasive species is an important part of investing in our region’s future.” The funding will be invested in activities such as raising public awareness of invasive plants, surveying invasive plant populations and actively treating high-priority sites to control the spread of these plants.
lanche impacts were observed 80 metres from the Day Lodge, but there was no evidence to suggest that dense flow can reach the Day Lodge,” the report explains. Both concrete foundations were poured last fall just before the resort’s Environmental Certificate came up for renewal. A decision by the BC Minister of Environment Mary Polak on whether or not Jumbo Glacier Resort achieved enough of a “substantial start” to renew the Environmental Certificate has been pending while an engineering avalanche risk evaluation has been underway. Based on the above assessments, the report recommends that a building constructed on the Service Building foundation “not be used or routinely accessed during the winter season.” Further recommendations include doors and windows facing away from avalanche flow direction and structural reinforcement that can withstand the impact of an avalanche. With respect to the Day Lodge site, its use is
also subject to recommendations, namely a building with structural reinforcement for impact pressures (less than what’s recommended for the Service Building), explosive control with remote fixed exploders to reduce avalanche hazard, and an evacuation plan to reduce potential residual avalanche risk to workers and the public “within and outside the building.” The report goes on to say that “protection of workers and the public in and around the Day Lodge will require implementation of an avalanche safety plan, which will include explosive avalanche control and an evacuation plan implemented by trained, experienced and licensed avalanche technicians.” Other Canadian resorts are located in potential avalanche areas, including Sunshine Village’s day lodge and parking area in Banff, Whitewater Ski Resort in Nelson and Mount Norquay in Banff. The Jumbo Glacier Resort council meeting scheduled for this week has been cancelled.

Bill C-51 protests held in East Kootenay Townsman Staff
Protests against the Federal Government’s proposed Bill C-51 were held throughout the region on Saturday. According to the Government of Canada, Bill C-51, also known as the Anti-terrorism Act, 2015, was designed to, “encourage and facilitate information sharing between Government of Canada institutions in order to protect Canada against activities that undermine the security of Canada.” Civil liberty groups and other critics have claimed the bill stretches the definition of security to potentially include peaceful protests, further restricts freedom of expression, and raises privacy concerns, since the act would allow fed-
eral institutions such as Health Canada and Revenue Canada to share private information with the RCMP. “The response to this bill, which many people call the Secret Police Bill, has been overwhelmingly negative,” said Wayne Stetski, the NDP candidate for the riding of Kootenay-Columbia. “So many people have taken time out of their Saturday to attend events and collect petition signatures because they know the importance of standing up for our rights.” Anti-C51 events were held in Revelstoke, Invermere, Cranbrook and Nelson, with protest signs, giant postcards, speeches and petitions. “I spent the afternoon in Invermere
where I had the opportunity to address canvassers before they headed out into the community,” Stetski said. “And a number of people drove down from Golden to participate. “Reaction to this terrible legislation cuts across partisan and generational lines. The more people know about Bill C51, the more they dislike it.” Opposition parties submitted 111 recommendations for improving the Bill but the Harper Conservatives rejected every one of them, Stetski said. “It is the responsibility of our Member of Parliament to speak up for our best interests, even when it is in opposition to what Stephen Harper

Canvassers are pictured getting ready to gather signatures on C51 petition in Cranbrook, Saturday, April 18, 2015 tells him to do. On this issue, the current MP shows little interest in representing the people who live here.
End “protectionism between provinces,” MP Wilks urges Continued from page 1 “Unless you’re Red Sealed in certain professions, you can’t go province to province,” he said. Wilks said the business community has to take the lead because it has the most to lose. “We need the business community to take the lead and we need you to pressure both your municipal governments and your regional governments to do something,” he said. Wilks said that can be accomplished by having municipalities across the province send a resolution to the Union of B.C. Municipalities (UBCM). “This is where the power comes in,” he said. “Every municipality in B.C. belongs to (UBCM). As a result of that they have a lot of power and they have a lot of influence on not only the provincial government, but the federal government as well.” Wilks said somebody has to do it, so why not Cranbrook? If a motion like that passed unanimously, which Wilks things it would, it would automatically be forwarded
to the Federation of Canadian Municipalities, which deals directly with the federal government. It could then put pressure on the federal and provincial government to talk. “Cranbrook could be the community that changes everything for internal trade in all of Canada,” he said. “But someone has to start it.” Wilks outlined existing and upcoming federal free trade agreements. Wilks noted there are seven free trade agreements in place, and there are 28 enforced FIPAs, with 14 concluded. Wilks noted that the most important FIPA is likely the one with China. “A lot of people might ask, ‘why do we get into a Foreign Investment Protection Agreement with China?’” Wilks said. “Well, they have one with us, because they want to protect their investments just as much as we want to protect ours.” He also noted that China has a unique way of doing business. “Ask anyone from Teck at the top end how
unique it is to work with China,” Wilks said. “An agreement you have today, does not necessarily mean that agreement will be good tomorrow. So we have to have investment protection agreements in place to ensure that Canadian companies that work in China are protected at all times with their investment.” Wilks said the next big agreement on the horizon is the Trans Pacific Partnership with Australia, New Zealand, Japan and parts of southeastern Asia. Wilks said there is always a give and take with the agreements. “And as a result of that, sometimes Canada is in an awkward position where sometimes we don’t get into agreements just to protect our own interests,” he said,
adding that if there is too much to lose the government tries to avoid them. Wilks noted that last month the Canada-Korea Free Trade Agreement lead to the Ford plant in Ontario exporting vehicles for the first time in Canadian history to South Korea. “That’s all because of the free trade agreement,” Wilks said, adding the agreement eliminates 90 per cent of the tariffs on goods both ways. Then there is CETA — Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement with the European Union. Wilks said the agreement is done and going through a “legal scrub”. “We believe we’ve got everything right with CETA,” he said.

Wicked raised beds workshops in Kimberley, Cranbrook
Repurposed freezers become your garden’s new best friend F o r t h e Tow n s m a n
With the gardening season upon us, Cranbrook Food Action Committee and Wildsight Kimberley/Cranbrook are pleased to announce that Luke Kimmel will be teaching 2 workshops: “Wicked Raised Beds” on April 25th 10am-4pm at the Cranbrook Public Produce Garden and 26th at the Kimberley Open Gate Garden. The cost is $45 per person, with volunteer bursaries available for those who are restricted by the price. Wicking beds are a unique and increasingly popular way to grow vegetables. They are self-contained raised beds with built-in water reservoirs. Water is wicked from the reservoir up into the soil, making these beds self-watering with increased water efficien-

cy. Because they are raised beds, they warm up more quickly in the spring, have good drainage, and are more ergonomic with less need for bending to maintain. In this workshop, old freezers will be used to create the wicking beds giving them a much greener second life than in the landfill, while also providing insulation to the plant roots. Luke Kimmel is one of the founding members of Calgary’s Leaf Ninjas Inc. Luke designs and facilitates the installation of edible landscapes in Calgary and abroad. “Once plants are established in a wicking bed, watering maintenance decreases from once per day to once per week or less,” says Kimmel. “Wicking beds make gardening easier and more convenient for both beginner and experienced gardeners, and the principles behind wicking beds can be adapted and applied to create water harvesting solutions for entire gardens and landscapes.” He has studied with in-
ternational experts on topics such as food forestry, permaculture, organic farming, broad scale landscape restoration, rainwater harvesting, composting, soil biology and more. Kimmel’s passion is “making it happen” and whether that’s on the job or in his spare time, you can often find him happily creating things out in the garden.

“This one is probably our largest fundraiser,” said Zeznik, “we’re working on doing other fundraisers, but we have the expectation and have met, that this is our major fundraiser raising about $20,000 a year.” It’s a simple concept hearkening back to the old-time tradition of auctioneering, Zeznik added. “We auction on the radio, people phone in,” said Zeznik, “but they can also come in to the site and bid there, because there’s a small silent auction going on at the same time.” The event, which is broadcast on the B-104.7 Total Country
radio station, will be on location in an empty space in the Tamarack Centre by the Columbia Theatre entrance. Picture, if you will: An audience on location bidding on items while six people work the phones as radio listeners call in to place bids on each item. The auctioneer—who will be on live radio, will take bids from the live audience as well as from the volunteers who are working the phones. Zeznik says there are up to a few hundred items that are donated by the community, ranging from gift certificates to artwork to clothing to a driving course from

A list of items donated to the Rotary Radio Auction can be found in the Monday edition of the Kootenay Advertiser a week before the event.

B.C. is the only province where tobacco products are still sold in stores that have pharmacies.
Pharmacy loyalty points, tobacco sales targeted Jeff Nagel Black Press
The regulatory body for B.C. pharmacists hasn’t given up on its agenda to ban pharmacies from handing out loyalty reward points on drug purchases, or to eventually ban cigarette sales. A ban imposed by the College of Pharmacists of B.C. was struck down in B.C. Supreme Court last summer, but an appeal filed by the college will be heard in December. The college argued loyalty points are a powerful lure for consumers that can alter their medication buying habits
and potentially harm their health. It was fought in court by major supermarket chains. The judge in the trial ruled the ban on all loyalty incentives was “unreasonable” and concerns raised were “illogical.” College spokesman Mykle Ludvigsen wouldn’t comment on the grounds for appeal. One of the objections raised was that insured patients who don’t pay out of pocket might continue to refill a prescription after they no longer need it just to collect more points and the unneeded drugs may be abused or diverted to
the illegal drug trade. Tobacco sales by pharmacies are also in the crosshairs of the college. Ludvigsen said there is no specific timeline to impose such a ban but the college’s 2014 strategic plan calls for the board to pursue one. “We’re the only province that currently allows cigarettes to be sold in premises that contain a pharmacy,” he said. “It completely goes against the pharmacy as a health centre. To sell things we know kill you at the front of the store and to sell things that help you get better at
the back of the store is a bit of a conflict.” Retail chains have warned they would challenge the college’s jurisdiction if it moves to impose a tobacco ban and would also sue the college and its directors for lost sales that would result if their stores can’t sell cigarettes. “The law does not take a positive view of activities which represent unwarranted restraint of trade,” says a letter to the college sent last fall by executives from London Drugs, Overwaitea Food Group, Safeway, Rexall, Sobey’s and Thrifty Foods.
B.C. carbon tax gets international attention To m F l e tc h e r Black Press
Premier Christy Clark met Friday with the finance ministers of China, India, the U.S. and other G20 countries to tell them about the success of B.C.’s carbon tax on fuels. Clark said in a phone interview from Washington D.C. she was invited there by the World Bank, whose president Jim Yong Kim co-chaired the meeting along with United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon. Countries around the world are looking for greenhouse gas reduction strategies before the next UN climate conference in Paris next December, and Clark said there was keen interest in B.C.’s experience. B.C.’s carbon tax was introduced in 2008, and is currently
set at $30 per tonne of carbon dioxide emissions. That translates to about seven cents a litre on gasoline and similar taxes on coal, natural gas and other fuels. “We’ve created one of the broadest-based carbon taxes in the world and used 100 per cent of the tax to reduce corporate, small business, and individual income taxes, and that’s resulted in robust economic growth compared to the rest of the country,” Clark said. Clark put a five-year freeze on the carbon tax after winning the B.C. Liberal leadership, and the government has wound up its carbon offset purchasing office and withdrawn from a group of U.S. states working on a regional carbon trading plan. Clark said B.C. will soon appoint a panel of “thought lead-
ers” to see where the province can make further gains in greenhouse gas reduction. One of those leaders who is unlikely to be included is Green Party MLA Andrew Weaver, who has criticized Clark for reversing climate policy progress made under former premier Gordon Campbell. Weaver and NDP leader John Horgan say the province’s decision to ease emissions rules for liquefied natural gas production is a big step backward. The Green Party has campaigned to increase the carbon tax to $50 a tonne immediately, and keep raising it to promote alternatives to carbon fuels. The NDP has called for carbon tax revenues to be directed to transit and building improvements instead of returning it as tax cuts.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Alberta for over 40 years, is in third place. The Globe and Mail reported that a poll released last Wednesday sampled 3,121 people and found the Wildrose Party and the NDP tied in the lead, each with 24 per cent of the voters, while the PCs came in third at 18 per cent. The Conservatives in third place! And one of the parties tied for first is the NDP? In Alberta? That’s craziness! It is doubtful that a minor gaffe like BYWP will make much of a difference to the Wildrose Party’s fortunes in the long run. But Alberta voters have tantalized us with the possibility of change before. Anyone remember the last election when all polls indicated that the province would go Wildrose and the voters collectively gagged at the last moment and returned the Conservatives to power? And that gave the province Alison Redford in all her Marie Antoinetteish glory. Even though Redford is long gone, her effect on the Conservative Party in Alberta remains. Will Alberta veer left or even further right? Don’t know, but it’s going to be interesting to watch. I might even have an election return watching party on May 5. Bring your own pie. Unlike Rick Strankman, I don’t care who makes it. Carolyn Grant is the Editor of the Kimberley Daily Bulletin

COTR Hosts Trades Event For Grade 9 Students College of the Rockies hosted 48 grade nine students from the region on Wednesday, April 9th for a full day of trades-related activities. The event saw students from Cranbrook, Jaffray, Fernie and Elkford gathered at the Cranbrook main campus as part of the YES 2 IT (Youth Exploring Skills to Industry Training) program. Students had the opportunity to practice their wood and metal-working skills in the carpentry shop building bookshelves before trying their hand at wiring lights and switches in the electrical shop. The day concluded with a competition in nailing spikes into a beam. Prior to the shop activities, WorksafeBC Safety Officer Jeff McKay gave a vivid presentation on workplace hazards, safe practices, and the rights of young workers. College of the Rockies welding, carpentry, and electrical instructors, along with grade 12 ACE IT students and apprentices provided instruction and mentoring for the participants. College of the Rockies’ Regional Transition Coordinator Brian Conrad says, “This was an excellent event that was useful in exposing students to and exciting them about the skilled trades prior to their entry into senior secondary. It was also an opportunity to showcase what trades opportunities are available to them at the College of the Rockies.” Learn more about trades programs at College of the Rockies.

DAILY TOWNSMAN / DAILY BULLETIN
Going green makes financial $ense Being “green” is not just a buzzword today but also a way of life for an increasing number of people. The benefits of making some environmental strides not only extend to safeguarding resources for future generations. For those who have not yet embraced environmentally friendly actions, perhaps the financial rewards of doing so may be the catalyst for change. A side effect of being environmentally conscious often can be saving money. In fact, depending on the initiatives taken, savings can be anywhere from
a few dollars to several thousand. Naturally, some eco-changes do require an initial investment, such as purchasing a new energy-saving device or appliance. Many others do not and only save you money. Whether you’re looking for tried-andtrue ways to go green, relatively easy ways to save money or both, the following are some ideas that work. · Cook more meals at home. Convenience

meals may be easy, but they’re more expensive than cooking fresh meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner. What’s more, convenience foods tend to be overly packaged and may be shipped great distances. Simply packing a lunch for work each day can save you around $100 per month. · Find a carpooling buddy. Share your ride to work with one or more people, and not only are you saving fuel, wear and tear on your car and possible toll charges, but you will save money as well. Some calculations paint a savings of around $650 a year for carpoolers who share their ride and gas bill with only one friend. That may be incentive enough to split commuting costs and tasks. · Try public transportation. If you are more of a commuting loner
or do not have anyone nearby to split the ride, try switching to public transportation, where available. Not only will you reduce your carbon footprint by using mass transit, biking or walking to work, but you will also save thousands on trips that would depreciate your vehicle’s value. · Make smarter buys. So many items are available at the click of a button or by visiting mass retail chains. However, not every purchase is a smart buy - even if it costs less. Some cheap consumer goods are not worth the smaller price tag. They’re produced overseas in areas with lax environmental regulations and then may be shipped thousands of miles. Sometimes buying more expensive, locally produced items makes better financial sense in the long run. These products will last longer and not need replacing in mere months.
· Rent, borrow and give. Most people are at fault for purchasing a gadget, tool or small appliance they had every intention of putting to good use. But after one use, that item is now collecting dust on a shelf somewhere. Instead of always thinking to buy first, save money by investigating rental agreements or borrowing belongings from others. Plenty of people have equally dusty items sitting in their homes that they’ll likely lend out. The cost is considerably less than purchasing new, especially for a one-time use item.
· Do an energy audit. Your home is probably wasting money right now. Simple improvements that make a home more efficient can save the average homeowner considerably. Caulking, sealing windows, ensuring heating and cooling systems are working efficiently and a load of other minor repairs can save on energy costs. Additionally, you may be eligible for home tax credits.
· Grow a garden. Produce prices continue to climb. An easy way to save money and have ultimate control over what fertilizers and pest remedies are used on fruits and vegetables is to grow them yourself. Save hundreds on salad greens, tomatoes, potatoes, and strawberries. Plus, a home garden offers the convenience of fresh produce close by when it’s needed.

If you and members of your household have yet to embrace recycling, you’re not only increasing greenhouse gas emissions, but also you may even be breaking the law. If your community sponsors a recycling program, simply separate recyclable items from the rest of your trash and leave them out on the curb on designated pickup days. If no such program exists in your community, separate items to recycle and periodically bring them to your local recycling center, which may even pay you for certain items. · Compost food waste. Instead of discarding leftovers in the garbage can, compost that wasted food so it does not end up in landfills, where it will contribute to methane gas in the air. Composting food waste can improve the soil in your yard and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and it also makes you feel better that you’re making use of wasted food that would otherwise go straight into the garbage can. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions may seem like a

also lowering their utility bills should only consider those products that have earned the ENERGY STAR® label. · Revisit your cooling and heating habits. Home cooling and heating systems consume a considerable amount of energy, and inefficient use of these systems is a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. But cutting back on these emissions does not mean you have to sweat out sultry summer afternoons or hide under the covers upon the arrival of winter. Replacing air filters according to manufacturer guidelines and using programmable thermostats so you aren’t heating and cooling your house when no one is home are some easy ways to dramatically reduce the greenhouse gas emissions that emanate from your heating and cooling systems. Such efficient use of these systems also saves you money on your monthly energy bills. · Recycle. Recycling can greatly reduce your home’s greenhouse gas emissions. Many communities now mandate that residents recycle plastics, glass containers and paper goods like newspapers and magazines. Recycling can be so simple that it’s easy to forget just how beneficial it can be. When products are recycled, that reduces the need to extract resources, manufacture replacement goods and dispose of products, each of which contributes to pollution and greenhouse gas emissions.

Greenhouse gases are gases in the atmosphere that absorb and emit radiation. Water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone are the primary greenhouse gases in the Earth’s atmosphere, and according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, these gases are significant contributors to climate change. While climate change poses a considerable threat, it’s important to note that much of the increase in greenhouse gases over the last 150 years can be traced to human activities. By changing certain behaviors and practices, men and women can help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The following are a few simple changes men and women can make in an effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in their homes. · Buy ENERGY STAR® products. A 2012 report from the United States Energy Information Administration noted that electricity production generates the largest share of greenhouse gas emissions. The ENERGY STAR® label indicates products have been tested and approved as energy-efficient, meaning they consume less electricity than other similar products. The ENERGY STAR® label can be found on a host of home appliances, including lighting, heating and cooling equipment and electronics.

Happy Earth Day! Recycling 101 - The Basics
Recycling Electronics & Appliances
Did you know you can use ANY yellow bin you see around the East Kootenay? With over 600 bins available, recycling has never been easier!

Here are some quick tips to remember:
The electronics & small appliance recycling depot is: Cranbrook Bottle Depot 1125 Industrial Rd #3 Phone: 250-417-0306
• All plastics MUST be clean and have a number between 1 and 6. That number must be in the triangular recycling symbol. If there is no number, it should go in the garbage if it can’t be reused. • All plastic grocery/shopping bags can be recycled -- even if they don’t have a number on them. All other plastics must be numbered • Styrofoam CANNOT be recycled in the yellow bins (even though it’s marked #6), but can go to the MMBC packaging area at the Cranbrook Bottle Depot. • Tin cans should be well rinsed with labels removed, if possible. • Cardboard should be flattened to save bin space. • Foil covered or waxy papers cannot be recycled. Milk cartons can be taken to the MMBC Packaging area at the Cranbrook Bottle Depot for recycling.
Where to Take Used Paint Paint and aerosol paints can be taken to the Cranbrook Bottle Depot (1125 Industrial Rd #3) and New & Nearly New in Kimberley (1685 Warren Ave). Containers must be sealed in paint containers and clearly labeled. If paint cans are dried out and there is no liquid left, the cans can go in the garbage.

COTR honours 2015 Avalanche volleyball excellence Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor
The College of the Rockies Avalanche Athletics program hosted its annual awards banquet Friday, April 17, at the Heritage Inn in Cranbrook, honouring the best and brightest from the 2014-15 PACWEST season. “It’s been a great year for our student athletes, in particular, our women’s team,” said Cori Andrichuk, manager of campus life and athletics at College of the Rockies, as she addressed those in attendance Friday night. “The student athletes could not have done it without the help of the coaches, the parents, the volunteers, the sponsors, the College of the Rockies, our team of gym staff…It’s been spectacular.” Alexa Koshman and Kelsey Thompson brought home the biggest hardware hauls on the women’s side of the festivities, with each claiming four awards, including a share of the Lady Avs Defensive Player of the Year Award. Koshman and Thompson finished the season atop the PACWEST ranks with 308 digs each. Thompson also took home honours as team MVP, Offensive Player of the Year as well as a PACWEST First All Star Team nod. The 2014-15 season marked the second consecutive year Thompson, a native of Vernon, B.C., was named both team MVP and Offensive Player of the Year.
“As a coach, you’re always looking for someone to step up, someone to lead, someone to do the little things,” said Lady Avs coach Andrew Zurrin Friday. “But when it comes down to crunch time, you’re looking at your setter and you’re going, ‘Give her the ball.’” Zurrin was, of course, speaking about Thompson -- his MVP and go-to left-side hitter -who helped fuel the Lady Avs offense. Thompson led the entire PACWEST in kills through the season, crushing 286 through 84 sets, guiding the women’s program to the PACWEST Provincial Volleyball Championships for the first time in program history. Koshman filled her mantle with honours as team Rookie of the Year and Avalanche Player of the Year in addition to earning a PACWEST All Rookie Team nod. “We had nine rookies this year…and at times we had four, if not five, on the court at all times,” Zurrin said. “To choose a [top] rookie, very tough, because we had so many that did so many things that contributed.” For the men, Brett Carter, Ben Smith and Curtis Stockton each claimed two awards. Smith was recognized for his performance both in the classroom, on the court and in the community as the Avalanche Player of the Year, backed by a PACWEST Academic Excellence Award. Stockton earned his
second consecutive team MVP title, while also being named to the PACWEST First All Star Team. The third-year and native of Melbourne, Australia, led the PACWEST with 377 kills through 90 sets in the 2014-15 season. Carter was named team Rookie of the Year, while also earning the Sun City Coachlines First Year Student Athlete Award. “I’d like to thank the guys for a wonderful season,” Avalanche coach Steve Kamps said as he addresses the banquet Friday night. “I know it was frustrating for all of us not to make it, but sometimes with failure there are things to learn, lessons to learn. I hope we all can look back on the season as a positive experience. “One of my goals or philosophies is to turn these guys into men and to give them skills they can take from the volleyball court into everyday life. Even though we may not have been as successful as we wanted on the volleyball court, I know these gentlemen are going to move on and do some amazing things in the future.” The men missed the PACWEST Provincial Volleyball Championships, finishing 5-19 through the 2014-15 campaign.

Atlanta Braves get by Toronto Blue Jays Dan R alph Canadian Press
TORONTO - Jonny Gomes drove in four runs to as the Atlanta Braves beat the Toronto Blue Jays 5-2 Sunday. Gomes brought home three runs on a double and another with a sacrifice fly as Atlanta (8-4) took two-ofthree from Toronto (67). The Blue Jays dropped to 2-5 on their 10-game homestand. Right-hander Shelby Miller (2-0) got the win, allowing two runs and
five hits over six innings while striking out six and walking three. Toronto native Russell Martin delivered the big blow off Miller, a two-run double in the sixth, and threw out two Braves baserunners to delight the Rogers Centre gathering of 44,794. Left-hander Daniel Norris (1-1) took the loss, allowing five runs (four earned) on six hits with two walks and a strikeout over 2 2/3 innings. Left-hander Jeff Francis of North Delta,
B.C., whose contract was added from triple-A Buffalo earlier Sunday, started the fifth to become the 22nd Canadian to play for Toronto. The 10-year veteran pitched 3 1/3 scoreless innings, allowing two hits while fanning three and walking two before giving way to righthander Roberto Osuna. Gomes put Atlanta ahead 3-0 in the first with a two-out, bases-loaded double off Norris. The Jays starter gave up a leadoff single

Toronto lost leadoff hitter Devon Travis (left rib contusion) in the first inning. Hit by a pitch, Travis left after diving back to first on a
pickoff and was replaced by Steve Tolleson. Travis is listed as day to day. Atlanta added two more runs in the third. Chris Johnson’s run-scoring single scored Freddie Freeman, who walked. Freeman came home on a
throwing error by centre-fielder Dalton Pompey. Gomes’ sacrifice fly then scored Johnson and chased Norris, who was replaced by righthander Marco Estrada. Martin got Toronto on the scoreboard in the sixth, scoring Jose Bau-
tista (walk) and Edwin Encarnacion (single). But after walking Justin Smoak, Miller retired Kevin Pillar (flyout) to end the threat. Right-hander Jason Grilli retired the three Toronto hitters he faced in the ninth for his sixth save.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: For many years, I have heard about the dangers of secondhand smoke. I am a non-smoker, but was married to a smoker for 13 years and have asthma. Now that pot is being legalized in some states, including where I live, what are the dangers of secondhand pot smoke? I haven’t heard a word about it. Are the states just looking for additional tax revenue and keeping it out of the news? -- Concerned Breather in Oregon Dear Breather: According to the American Lung Association, inhaling smoke is harmful whether it’s from cigarettes, pot or burning wood. Marijuana smoke contains many of the same toxins, irritants and carcinogens as tobacco smoke, and pot smokers generally inhale it for a longer period of time. Secondhand marijuana smoke contains the same ingredients. How dangerous is it to non-smokers? A 2014 study found that blood-vessel function in lab rats dropped by 70 percent after 30 minutes of exposure to secondhand marijuana smoke and hadn’t returned to normal even after 40 minutes. And the rats suffered the same effects even if the pot contained no THC. So, you might not get a “contact high,” but with continued exposure, you could suffer impaired lung and blood-vessel function. Marijuana is much stronger today than it was 40 years ago. More studies need to be done, obviously, but if you are regularly exposed to smoke of any kind, you are likely to develop a problem. Steer clear. Dear Annie: I am responding to “B” about unsolicited phone calls. I recently fell victim to such a scam. I purchased a lifetime repair contract for my computer. A month later, I received a call saying they were going out of business and needed to return my money. I foolishly let them gain control of my computer, where they claim to have accidentally “deposited” an amount greater than what they owed me. They then said I needed to send a MoneyGram for the overpayment. I had the person on my cellphone when I went to a MoneyGram location. The woman there told me to hang up and informed me that it was a scam. I then went to my bank and was able to protect my account. I also reported it to the police. On my way to the bank, I received 17 calls from the scammer asking why I hadn’t sent the money. The specialist at the bank told him to stop calling. It was too late to reverse the charges on my credit card for the original contract, but the bank canceled that card and issued a new one. Here is how I stopped these calls: 1. I blocked the numbers they were calling from on my cellphone and my home phone. 2. I set “call rejection” on my home phone so if anyone called from a “private” or “unknown” number, they would be required to unblock their number and call back. I hope others learn from my experience. -- A Lesson Well Learned Dear Lesson: Thank you for sharing. We received a great many letters with examples of how these unscrupulous people work and will print more in future columns. Stay tuned.

Phillips, Kenneth Arthur 1947-2015 With deep sadness and great regret we announce the passing of Ken Phillips. He leaves behind his wife Renee, mother-inlaw, Mary Phillips and father-in-law, Graham Phillips. At the time of his passing there were no known siblings. He was an avid hunter and one of the founders of the Yahk Raft Races. He was a lover of all animals and around the Phillips household he was known as the cat whisperer. Ken was a cherished friend to those who loved him. A celebration of his life was held on April 17th.
