Students at McKim School are taking part in the Roots of Empathy program. Here’s what Mr. Sutherland’s Grade 4 class has to say about the program: Roots of Empathy is a great program to learn. It teaches you to care for one another. Roots is a program to teach children what to do and not to do with babies. It helps us to be kind and respectful. Roots helps us to understand feelings and sharing. Every visit the baby comes with something new to show us. Sometimes we measure and weigh him. We watch him grow and develop. We get to see the baby reach new milestones like crawling, eating, jumping and more. Schools should continue with Roots of Empathy because it is absolutely a great source of knowledge for everyone. We are lucky to have Roots at McKim. Thank you Brenda Kraushaar, baby William, Anali and Mr. Sutherland. Written by Mr. Sutherland’s grade 4 class
Dreadnaught ski racing drives local tourism Ski racing generates $400,000 this past season FOR THE BULLETIN
KIMBERLEY, BC – April 22, 2015 . The ski season this year was notable for all the wrong reasons. Unseasonably warm in February, unseasonable cold in April. But Dreadnaught Ski Racing persisted and is helping to grow the ski tourism market, with an estimated economic impact of over $400,000 this season in Kimberley. The Dreadnaught Ski Race Series, which ran 33 days of racing between Jan-
uary and March, is a cooperative effort between the Kimberley Alpine Racing Club, the Kimberley Alpine Resort, and the Kimberley Disabled Skier Association. The resurgence in ski racing this year saw 3,160 competitor days between Keurig, NorAm IPC, Masters, and Zone races. Dreadnaught Ski Racing was aided this year by $15,000 in funding to purchase racing infrastructure including timing clocks, netting, and a power cord that extended snowmaking to the far reaches of the Dreadnaught race course. Funding was provided by the City of Kimberley as part of the BC Resort Municipality Initiative (RMI). Kimberley is
one of 14 BC communities eligible to participate in the RMI, a provincial program that provides small, tourism-based municipalities with funding to invest in tourism related infrastructure and amenities in order to grow their visitor economies. According to volunteer organizer Donna Briggs, “This race season would not have been possible without the funding for race infrastructure and the godlike grooming provided by the Kimberley Alpine Resort. Both enabled us to produce an environment and conditions that could endure one of the most difficult seasons in years.” See RACING, page 4
The Rails 2 Trails is an asset that the communities of Kimberley and Cranbrook, and surrounding Regional District area, are justifiably proud of. The Rails 2 Trails Society is responsible for stewardship of the trail, and makes all the decisions about projects and maintenance. Members also do a lot of hands on volunteer work. If you’d like to have a say in the Trail’s future, attend the upcoming Annual General Meeting on Tuesday, May 12 at 7 p.m. at the Cranbrook Heritage Inn. Society President Rob McIntyre says one and all are invited to the AGM, which alternates location yearly between Kimberley and Cranbrook. “As an all volunteer society, we need your help,” he said. “Thanks to seasonal workers and volunteers the trail is looking great. It’s heavily used by both locals and visitors.” That help can come in the form of donations, volunteering or becoming a new member of the Society. In the past year the Society has taken on a

number of projects, including the purchase and use of a trail truck and equipment, vegetation management (noxious weed control), new benches and a kiosk have been purchased, trail maps and brochures have been printed, guidelines posted, trail guides and security measures implemented, a new website has been developed, and financial statements and budgets clarified. “We appreciate our ongoing funding support from the Columbia Basin Trust, the cities of Cranbrook and Kimberley, and now the RDEK,” McIntyre said. “We thank everyone for being a friend to the trail and we hope to see you at the AGM.”

aboriginal artist living in Penticton, began his trek earlier in the month and arrived in Cranbrook on Friday, April 24th. While Edgar-Haworth has dedicated his walk to the issue of missing and murdered aboriginal women, he is also mounting a campaign he’s christened ‘Right the Wrong’, which highlights a number of environmental, social and economic issues that are important to him. His cart, a threewheeled buggy, is stocked with food for the road, a sleeping bag and two personally significant items, he said. “It’s for the women and it’s for all Canadians,” said Edgar-Haworth. “I’m carrying a sacred Eagle feather I’m carrying for all Native people and I’m also carrying a Canadian flag.”
Earlier in January, after fasting for a few days, Edgar-Haworth was moved by what he called ‘injustice’ wrought by political decisions in all areas of government, decided to undertake his trek with the goal of reaching Ottawa by the next federal election. He’s averaging 20 kilometres a day, pushing and pulling his 150pound cart up and down the hills, but when he hits the flatlands, he’s able to make much better time. “The walk’s fine, my dog’s fine, we’re in good spirits. We’re picking up a lot of support along the way,” Edgar-Haworth said. For more information about his Right the Wrong campaign, visit his website at www.patre o n . c o m / r i g h t t h e wrong.

Canada’s National Day of Mourning
Brian Crowe
As he does each year for the annual Day of Mourning, April 28, the day we remember those who lost their lives on the job, Brian Crowe provides a list of those who lost their lives on the job at the Sullivan Mine. William Rogers, May 1, 1907 D. McKay, May 1, 1907 Henry Hogberg, June 9 1919 E.H. Lendon, July 18, 1923 Harold Hogberg, August 17, 1924 Fritz Stromberg, August 19, 1924 William T.

The memorial reads “This area overlooking the Sullivan Mine’s reclaimed No. 1 shaft waste rock dump and with a view of the beautiful Rocky Mountains has been chosen as a memorial site for all employees, contractors and emergency responders who lost their lives while assisting or working at Kimberley Operations. Kimberley Operations consisted of many work areas. The ore from the Sullivan Mine provided feed material to the Sullivan Concentrator located five kilometres from the mine. In turn, the Sullivan Concentrator delivered processed materials to the Fertilizer Operation and Iron and Steel Plant to be further refined into fertilizer, iron and steel. Kimberley Operations included water systems, rail transportation corridors, power and communication lines and various other structures and services throughout the City of Kimberley. Thousands of people contributed to the success of Kimberley Operations over the life of the Sullivan Mine. Over almost 100 years of operation, various tragic events resulted in the deaths of 88 individuals. Now that the Sullivan Mine is closed it is important to make sure that their deaths are remembered. Those who lost their lives will be forever a part of the legacy of mining activities that helped create the City of Kimberley. Allan Bruce Ritchie, December 27, 1937 Hans A.

Stay the Course
Although I am of the opinion that it is my duty to vote, I have not made my personal views known. However, about two years ago I started to notice things going on in our city that concerned me. Some of these concerns were: 1). The fountain at the Fire Hall — I drive by the Fire Hall daily and I noticed that the construction of the fountain was taking forever, and I thought that this must be costing us a fortune. I then heard that the city workers were working on the fountain when they had nothing else to do, so we weren’t really incurring labour costs. I am sure that these workers were on the city payroll. They were not working for free. If they had they had nothing else to do, and were being paid anyway, that raises a whole new batch of questions. 2). The next thing I noticed was another marathon project on 14th Avenue South, just below the Catholic Church. The end result of this is a weed and garbage filled ditch. 3). Then there were all the benches on 14th Avenue South. I have yet to see anyone sitting on these benches. Why not put some of these at some of the bus stops? 4). Next was the pile of rocks at the south entrance to town. I watched a rent-
al crane sit there for days and days. The end result is a sign that you cannot read (day or night), contrary to one ex-councillor’s opinion. What did this project cost us? 5). Then I started hearing suggestions about dog parks and traffic circles and other grandiose schemes, including the old Fire Hall/CDAC issue. All the while our streets were getting worse and worse and our infrastructure was getting more fragile. These activities really concerned me, and when I discovered there were citizens running against the incumbent mayor and council who shared my concerns, I volunteered to assist in an election campaign, something I had never done before. While I was out assisting this individual I discovered a very large number of people shared my concerns. These citizens and I voted in a new council and mayor with approximately 65 per cent of the votes cast. The old guard was replaced en masse! What does this say about their ideas and policies? It says that the voters did not like the direction the city was going. I am not suggesting that the previous mayor and council were wrong in all their decisions, just that the voters wanted something different going forward. In fact, I applaud all those who put their name forward. It is a big commitment and I for one am appreciative of their efforts, whether I agree with them or not. My final comments are directed towards our new mayor and council. The majority have spoken. Do not let a few dozen prolific letter writers sway you. Stay the course. Let’s get our city back on track. Gary Doll Cranbrook
What the numbers really tell us
When I went to university I majored in Science and minored in Economics for my first degree. Facts and numbers are important to me — you will often hear me responding to information with “Show me the science behind that statement.” I also have a real respect for history and believe it should help to inform the present. It is from that perspective that I was musing on yesterday’s federal budget.
There is much to be said for balancing budgets. When I was Mayor of Cranbrook we always balanced our budget – municipalities are bound by law to do so, which is why local government is often called the most fiscally responsible level of government. When I look at last Tuesday’s balanced federal budget I couldn’t help but be a little cynical, which is not how I approach life in general. That cynicism is based on a couple of things. How was the budget balanced? $2 billion comes from reducing the government’s contingency fund down to $1 billion. This is the money that governments put aside to cover the costs of natural disasters, or national crises. Another $3.3 billion comes from selling off shares in General Motors. Let’s put these choices into a context we can all understand. This method of balancing the budget would be the same as you paying your bills using money you received by selling your car at a fire sale price and cashing in your RRSP’s. Your bills might be paid but there is little reason to celebrate! My second concern with this budget comes from reviewing recent history. The Harper Conservatives ran deficit budgets every year from 2008 to 2014 ranging from a low of $6.1 billion dollars to a record high of $58.2 billion. In the last 9 years Stephen Harper has added $4400 in new debt for every man, woman and child in Canada. With this record, it is remarkable that anyone in Canada still believes the spin that the Harper Conservatives are good fiscal managers. Wayne Stetski NDP Candidate for Kootenay Columbia

B.C. land sales reached election target To m F l e tc h e r Black Press
The B.C. government released details of its pre-election property sales Thursday, showing it came out with more money overall than appraisals or B.C. Assessment Authority values forecast. Opposition critics called for the disclosure after obtaining government memos that showed a rush to make the deadline for the 2013-14 fiscal year, where the B.C. Liberals campaigned on a balanced budget tabled before the 2013 election. NDP critics highlighted
Monday, APRIL 27, 2015
property in Coquitlam that sold for millions less than an appraiser estimated it would get. Finance Minister Mike de Jong said the 14 Burke Mountain properties are an “outlier” in the dozens of land sales that closed during the finance ministry’s budget-balancing program. Later appraisals by the City of Coquitlam identified steeper terrain and streams with protective setbacks that limited their development, decreasing their market value by 20 per cent overall. Development property
south of the B.C. legislature beat its appraisal by $13 million, selling for $34 million to help the government meet a $350 million target to end the fiscal year. A former hospital site in Surrey was sold for $20.5 million, $3 million less than its B.C. Assessment Authority value for property tax purposes. Finance ministry records showed the sale price was midway between two appraisals, one commissioned by the government and the other by the buyer. De Jong said surplus Crown property is sold every year,
with about 1,500 properties disposed of in the last 30 years. They will continue, but there won’t be another identified program in future budgets now that post-recession deficits have ended, he said. NDP finance critic Carole James said there was an obvious rush to meet ministry targets for asset sales, and some could continue to be sold below market value without the public knowing. Many of the surplus properties are school sites, and there are other transactions with municipalities.

Ground shifts on voter list law Opposition is growing to legislation that would force Elections B.C. to give the political parties a complete list of everyone who voted in an election, once the campaign is over. Privacy Commissioner Elizabeth Denham first rang the alarm bell about the proposal in an April 13 open letter, saying it represented an unwarranted intrusion into the personal privacy of voters and non-voters alike. Denham recognized that political parties, through their volunteers, try to keep track of who votes early during a campaign for the purposes of driving people to the polls on election day and other get-out-the-vote efforts. But she expressed deep concern that the after-thefact measure would turn the independent elections office into a name-gathering agency for the parties, enabling them to spend the next four years targeting voters and non-voters for fundraising, lobbying and other “intrusive purposes.” Initially, none of the political parties responded favourably to Denham’s call for the measure to be withdrawn or rewritten. Not surprising, since the parties themselves had lobbied for the change through their representatives on an election advisory committee. Amid growing difficulties in attracting enough volunteers to gather names at hundreds of advance polls and election day voting stations, they wanted to enlist the staff at Elections B.C. to pick up the slack. After media coverage of the proposal — and a public-awareness effort by the watchdog group Integrity B.C. — opposition politicians began acknowledging this week that Denham raised a valid concern. First out of the gate was Vicki Huntington, the Independent MLA for Delta South, who took direct aim at the major political parties. “It’s an incredibly self-interested piece of legislation,” she declared in a Wednesday press release. “Privacy concerns are
being brushed aside for the sake of making political campaigning easier for the parties.” She further objected because the obligation to provide the list would apply to registered political parties but not to independents like herself. “This information should not be available in the first place,” she said. “But at a minimum it should apply fairly to everyone who runs, not just to those working within the party machines.” Following Huntington, Green MLA Andrew Weaver spoke out as well. “I do agree with the privacy commissioner’s concerns,” he told Global TV Thursday. “I will Vaughn be voting against it.” Both Huntington and Palmer Weaver promised to move limiting amendments when the enabling legislation, Bill 20, is called for debate. Then the New Democratic Party Opposition acknowledged the privacy commissioner’s concerns as well. “We think there’s some validity and legitimacy to some of the issues that she’s raised,” NDP house leader Mike Farnworth told me during an interview on Voice of B.C. on Shaw TV Thursday evening. “And so what we’ve said that we’re going to do is to put in place an amendment that will tighten the language around how the information can be used. For example, it could not be used for commercial purposes. We hope that the government accepts it.” The NDP had to tread carefully because, as Farnworth conceded, his party had sought the measure along with the others: “All parties have indicated that they would like that.” Indeed, the New Democrats would appear to have originated the idea back in October 2012 at a meeting of the all-party advisory committee to Elections B.C. Meeting minutes indicate that Jan O’Brien, then a senior NDP official, “asked if parties could be provided with a data extract of voters who participated following the election. She explained that this
information would help with engagement efforts.” Embracing the notion was Mike McDonald, representing the Liberals. “He explained that while they can collect voter participation information at voting places, it is inefficient for the party. He added that a voter participation extract would benefit parties in their efforts to get the vote out.” That’s still the position of the Liberals, judging from a missive put out on social media this week by executive director Laura Miller. “Provincial parties currently have access to voter participation data through advance polls and election day,” she wrote in a series of postings on Twitter. “Proposed changes simplify the manner in which this info is provided, levelling the playing field for all, including emerging parties. Ensures all parties can play an active role in encouraging greater voter engagement and higher voter turnout. Good for democracy.” She also disclosed that she’d recently been in touch with NDP officials to confirm that her party still supported the change: “They said they did too.” But that was before Farnworth announced the apparent change of direction. Which could make for some interesting exchanges across the floor of the house once the bill is called for debate, perhaps as early as next week. For all that, Miller doesn’t dispute that the privacy commissioner raised a valid concern. “I appreciate the privacy commissioner raising flags,” she told me Friday. “We must be thoughtful when managing personal information and I hope, if this passes, that Elections B.C. consults with her on the rules. It isn’t and can never be carte blanche.” Enough room there to incorporate those concerns into a compromise amendment to the legislation, if only the parties will seize the opening and avoid the showdown.

Wheat Kings take lead in WHL’s Eastern Conference championship Rob Henderson Brandon Sun
Given the playoff track records of both teams, it seemed like only a matter of time before the Brandon Wheat Kings and Calgary Hitmen took an Eastern Conference final game into overtime. It happened on Saturday night at Westman Place as the Wheat Kings, coming off a 9-4 victory in the opening game of the WHL playoff series, took a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven set by nipping the Hitmen 3-2 in OT. Brandonite T y l e r Coulter tipped in Ryan Pilon’s point shot for the winning goal, only 51 seconds into the extra session. The Wheat Kings have gone a sparkling 4-0 when extra time is needed, but head coach and general manager Kelly McCrimmon said there’s little more that can be read into their success than some well-executed plays at the key point of the game. “We’ve played four overtime games, they’ve played seven, so it wasn’t uncharted territory for either team,” McCrimmon said. “It’s hard to predict. We put a puck deep, (Jayce) Hawryluk won a battle with a Calgary defenceman, generated two quick chances. … Then, as we went on, a shot from the point where we did have traffic, and that’s sometimes how those things happen in overtime.” Hawryluk and Peter Quenneville scored first-period goals to put the Wheat Kings up 2-0 before the Hitmen battled back to tie the game on Adam Tambellini’s marker late in the first and Michael Zipp’s point shot through traffic in the third that forced overtime. Aided by some Brandon misses on quality opportunities, Calgary goalie Brendan Burke made 43 saves, nearly doubling the 22 by Bran-
don’s Jordan Papirny. But once overtime came around, the Wheat Kings netminder wasn’t tested at all as his teammates immediately swarmed the Hitmen net and didn’t let up until Coulter had clinched the win. Quenneville said the Wheat Kings have followed a simple recipe in their overtime games. “I think you’ve just got to stay calm,” said Quenneville, who has scored one of Brandon’s OT winners. “We try to preach just to keep playing and keep doing what we’re doing, and you’ve just got to keep fighting and trust that someone in the room’s going to be that hero. And so far we’ve had guys step up and get that big goal.” Already without high-scoring forward Connor Rankin, the Hitmen played Game 2 without two more of their top producers in Chase Lang, who was hurt in Game 1 and Jake Virtanen, who was suspended following the series opener. Zipp said the Hitmen gained some confidence as the series shifts to Calgary for Game 3 on Tuesday. “We were down a couple bodies tonight,” Zipp said. “Some guys stepped up big time and played a lot of minutes. We showed we can play with (the Wheat Kings).” Coulter expects the Wheat Kings will also benefit from the way Saturday’s game played out. “This definitely adds a lot of intensity to the series,” he said. “It’s really good for us to have a game like this. We don’t learn too much when the games get out of hand either way, so I think this really helped us going into Game 3.” ONE-TIMERS: McCrimmon’s 62nd career playoff coaching win moved him into sole possession of ninth placed on the WHL’s alltime list … Hawryluk (seven goals, five assists) is on an eight-game point-scoring streak …

CALGARY - The Calgary Flames advanced to the second round of NHL playoffs for the first time since 2004 and will face the Anaheim Ducks. Not considered a playoff contender this season, here are five reasons the Flames beat the Vancouver Canucks four games to two in the first round. 1. A light team plays a heavy game Series against Vancouver turned nasty in the Games 2 and 3. The Flames, the playoff team with the lightest average weight, took care of themselves and each other. Calgary had the third-least penalty minutes during the regular season. As of Sunday, they had the most in the first round with 152. 2. T.J. Brodie “Supersonic”, according to coach Bob Hartley, the tireless defenceman was Calgary’s bedrock on offence and defence. His speed with and without the puck opened up scoring chances and his poise in Calgary’s end was a heart-rate relaxant. Averaged 27 minutes a game and was plusthree. 3. Sam Bennett and Michael Ferland Calgary got new forwards for the post-season without trading for them. Stepping in for injured Lance Bouma, Ferland was a punishing deterrent against Vancouver. In addition to 40 hits in six games, Ferland scored late in the first period Saturday to spark Calgary’s comeback. With just one reg-
ular-season game under his belt, 18-year-old Bennett scored the game-winner in Game 3 and brings a combination of speed, skill and scrappiness to the post-season lineup. 4. Top line of Hudler, Gaudreau & Monahan Somewhat quiet with three power-play goals between them over the first five games of the series, centre Sean Monahan and wingers Jiri Hudler and Johnny Gaudreau brought it when it really mattered. They produced four goals in Game 6 including two equalizers. Calgary had zero second-period goals in the series until Monahan and Gaudreau collected their first at even-strength Saturday. 5. Bob Hartley Calgary’s coach continues to foster his players’ belief in themselves and each other with a light, but decisive touch. Pulling starter Jonas Hiller with less than eight minutes played in Game 6 wasn’t an “uh-oh” moment. Hartley followed the philosophy during the season of “he who wins the last game, starts the next.” The Flames play as confidently in front of Karri Ramo as they do Hiller, in contrast to the Mikka Kiprusoff days when the Flames were tentative in front of a seldom-used backup. Hartley preaches “no fear” to his troops and he practised it with his bold goalie move. “I said ‘there’s no way that I’m going back to Vancouver,”’ the coach said. “My job was to go down striking and not get caught looking.”
Justin Rose claims seventh PGA win at Zurich Classic Bret t Martel Associated Press
AVONDALE, La. Justin Rose birdied the final two holes Sunday to win the Zurich Classic. Rose, who entered the week ranked ninth in the world, completed a 7-under 65 in the rain-delayed third round and closed with a 66 at TPC Louisiana for his seventh PGA Tour title. The Englishman has won at least once in six straight seasons, the second-longest streak on
the tour behind Dustin Johnson’s eight straight. Playing aggressively on a soggy course, Rose made six birdies in the final round and played the last 66 holes without a bogey. He finished at 22-under 266. Rose’s final two putts from 10 and 13 1/2 feet allowed him to hold off Cameron Tringale by a stroke. Tringale birdied the 18th for a 65. Boo Weekley, led after the first round, finished third at 20 under,
and Jim Herman and Jason Day tied for fourth at 19 under. David Hearn of Brantford, Ont., tied for sixth at 18-under par. Nick Taylor of Abbotsford, Ont., was in a group tied for 48th at 10 under, while Calgary’s Roger Sloan was tied for 70th, even at par. When Rose sank his final putt, he punched his right hand high above his head and looked behind the green to fans in the suite of one
of his sponsors, Zurich, which also sponsors the tournament. He took off his white cap whipped it across his body and flexed his arm to bring attention to the sponsor’s logo on his sleeve. Rose began the final round tied with Day for the lead at 16 under. Day found trouble when he hooked his drive into trees lining the left boundary of the second fairway. Next swing, his ball smacked a tree and bounced back to him.

HOROSCOPES by Jacqueline Bigar
ARIES (March 21-April 19) You might need to cocoon a bit in order to figure out what the current confusion is all about. The issue could be related to communication, or perhaps your finances are involved. Your perspective will change later in the day. Still, use care. Tonight: Let your guard down. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Allow security and domestic matters to play out. You might not be sure about what would be the best way to proceed. A friend’s reaction could seem a bit off-the-wall. Perhaps this person has misinterpreted the implications of your words. Tonight: Hang close to home. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You might want to have a long-overdue chat that could point you down a new path. Your sense of direction seems to revolve around the quality of your communication. Listen to what is being said by all parties involved. Then ask questions. Tonight: A conversation is easy.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You might not understand where someone else is coming from. Finances likely will be involved, and a misunderstanding could be brewing. Communication will point you toward a different solution. Money could be at the heart of this confusion. Tonight: Visit with a friend. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You could be at your wits’ end and wondering what is going on. Be more flexible and upbeat. If someone else shares something that doesn’t make sense to you, ask nonintrusive questions. Be aware of the costs of providing as you have been. Tonight: Say “yes” to an offer. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You could be a bit out of sorts right now. You might want to rethink a decision you have made. What is important is figuring out how you came to that decision in the first place. Have a long-overdue discussion with a friend later in the day. Tonight: Open up to the moment. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Emphasize the pluses rather
Tundra
than the minuses. You need to be more trusting of your own thought process and also of those around you. Understand what is happening between you and someone else. Think before you act. Tonight: You need some downtime. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Tension builds during the day. You might question your choices and the reasons behind them. Slow down and listen to feedback, because the results will be much better if you do. The late afternoon will lead to an important discussion. Tonight: Zero in on what you want. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Reach out for more information and greet a loved one’s feedback positively. You might not agree, but more insight always helps to solidify your ideas or plans. Tension is likely to build later in the day; perhaps, you feel as if you have not done enough. Tonight: Out late. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) A one-on-one conversation will lead you down a different path. How you deal with someone’s
responses could change after this talk. You might not agree with this person, but you will understand him or her better as a result. Detach if possible. Tonight: Relax to music. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You don’t have trouble making the first move, but others might want to step up first. They could get difficult if you try to bypass them. You seem to be reviewing a matter in your head that revolves around your personal life. Tonight: Sort through invitations, then choose. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You could be overwhelmed by everything that is happening around you. Your words, though well-intended, might fall flat. Verbalize the same statement in different ways until you make some headway. Clear out as much as you can. Tonight: Return calls, then decide.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: Two years ago, I made a big mistake. I married a widower and agreed to move into his house in a large city that is a 30-minute drive from the small town I love living in. I now realize that I absolutely hate living in the city and, more importantly, living in the home that he and his late wife picked out and decorated together. Initially, he said I could make changes to the house, but the only changes he is willing to make involve replacing wornout things with newer versions of the exact same style and color. I thought I could redecorate using some of his things and some of mine to make a home of our own. Instead, I feel like a permanent houseguest. I love my husband, and our relationship is wonderful except for this issue. Here’s the real problem: I recently learned that I have metastatic breast cancer. I cannot bear the thought of living what’s left of my life in his house and in this city. Three years ago, he said he’d move into a condo in five years. Last month, he said the same thing. I know he’s not ready. But he is 81, and I am 70, and it’s time to downsize. He knows how I feel, because we’ve had quite a few discussions about it. But because he’s most likely going to outlive me, I don’t feel it’s fair to ask him to move to another place when he doesn’t want to. He owns a condo in my hometown that he rents out. I own a house that is rented out, although mine still has a small mortgage on it. I’m thinking of asking him not to renew the rental on his condo so we can stay there some of the time and in his home the rest of the time. I am so torn inside. What do you think? -- T. Dear T.: We think you have suggested an excellent compromise -- live in the condo part of the time, and in his house for the rest. You also could stop renting your house and live there part of the time. Should your husband outlive you, he can move wherever he chooses. Right now, you should not be stressed about your living situation, and we hope your husband cares enough to make you as comfortable as possible. We think he will want to do whatever he can. Dear Annie: You printed a letter from “M.W.,” who doesn’t like to travel because she suffers from motion sickness. When I lost the sight in one eye, my ophthalmologist said I’d no longer get airsick or carsick. He said a NASA astronaut discovered that by closing one eye, the dizziness from the effects of being weightless went away. He was right. I can now fly and look out the plane window or read while riding in a car and suffer no ill effects. I have told several people who suffer from carsickness to close one eye or wear an eye patch, and they have reported back that it worked for them. Maybe this will help others. -- One Advantage Dear Advantage: Thanks for the interesting suggestion. We hadn’t heard of this before, and we hope our readers who have this problem will try your solution.

Elizabeth Ricketts peacefully passed away with her family by her side on April 1, 2015 at the Kimberley Special Care Home â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Pinesâ&#x20AC;? at 92 years of age. Liz was born at home on the family farm on May 15, 1922 in South Himsworth Township, ON. She moved to Trail in 1951 and married Bert Ricketts. In 1953 they moved to Kimberley. Liz is survived by her brother Homer Langford of Kitchener, ON, sons Melvin and Eric, daughter Betty, grandchildren Tyler and Myles Ricketts and Calvin Romane, and great grandchild London. She was predeceased by her four brothers Melvin, Orville, Wilmer and Bert Langford and her sister Thelma. We will miss our mother and grandmother with heavy hearts but we are happy that she is once again with the love of her life Bert Ricketts. A special thank you to the Alberton family who were very dear to her. There will be a gathering of friends and family at a later date to celebrate Lizâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life.

4 local schools get Pink the Rink donations Shannon Galley
The Cranbrook Western Financial Group hosted the Pink the Rink event back in February to raise awareness and funds for local anti-bullying initiatives. The event was hosted at Western Financial Place during the Kootenay Ice game on February 20. Western Financial Group sold pink pucks to be tossed onto the ice during the second intermission. In total, the event raised $1,595 and now Western Financial Group has donated $500 to four schools in Cranbrook for their anti-bullying initiatives. KCA (at right): $500 cheque presentation for their student council to promote anti-bul-
lying initiatives at the school. Steeples School
(top): $500 cheque presentation for their anti-bullying initiatives.
Highlands School (left): $500 cheque presentation for their an-
ti-bullying initiatives. Jaffray School (not pictured): $500 cheque
presentation for their anti-bullying initiatives (random acts of kind-
ness, student council, prevention, Red Cross: Beyond the Hurt).
