Three Arrested following a long weekend assault in Cranbrook

Three persons were arrested after police found a subject suffering from significant facial injuries. Over the May long weekend a Cranbrook Police Officer on patrol on King Street noted a subject sitting on the road side who appeared to have been assaulted. Upon speaking with the individual, the officer learned the subject had just been assaulted by three other males who were still in a nearby apartment complex. Two of the suspects exited the building and were immediately taken into custody by police. The third suspect was located with the assistance of the Cranbrook Police Dog Team. He was found on the third floor of the apartment complex. The victim, a 25 year old Kamloops man, was taken to hospital and then released following a medical examination. All three suspects are from Cranbrook and are 29, 30 and 32 years of age. All were taken into police custoZOE FERGUSON PHOTOGRAPHY dy and later released on Promise to The students of the Kootenay Dance Academy are excited to showcase their season’s work at their year-end showcase this Friday and Saturday Appears for future court dates. at 7 p.m. Key City Theatre.

Food Bank Kimberley/Cranbrook doing garage sale their part for ShelterBox C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor

The Kimberley Food Bank Garage Sale is scheduled for August 22 at the Kimberley Curling Club. Stan Salikin from the Food Bank says that he is getting lots of calls asking whether it’s a go or not, so he wants to let people know they can hang on to their prime re-saleable items until they can be delivered to the curling rink beginning August 1, from 4 to 6 p.m. every day. “We’re hoping it will be bigger and better than ever,” Salikin said. “Last year we had really good crowds. We had people from all over.” The Food Bank asks that you do not donate electronics such as TVs or computers, and no clothing please. Otherwise, they will accept donations gladly.

Nepal’s second earthquake adds concern

ShelterBox Response Team (SRT) volunteers have been increased from the original four to twelve. Following the second 7.3 magnitude quake on May 12 that struck near the town of Namche Bazaar, near Mount Everest in Nepal, ShelterBox was delighted to hear from all twelve SRT volunteers that they were safe. Response team member, Liam Norris is in Chautara and has reported the main priority is getting people away from buildings into

open spaces. They had been engulfed in clouds of dust as the remaining buildings in the area collapsed from the early morning’s quake. The open field is now the gathering point for the people. ShelterBox’s aid effort will continue albeit hampered by the new operational and logistical challenges the May 12th quake created. Roads are now severely damaged and Kathmandu airport was closed with no flights coming in or out of the country. The road to Kathmandu was completely blocked, meaning that the aid currently in Chautara is all that will be available for distribution for the foreseeable future. “The magnitude of relief

equipment currently on the ground in Nepal or en route to Nepal is huge, advised Graham Mann, Kimberley Rotary’s ShelterBox Canada Ambassador. A total of 3035 boxes plus 1736 kits have been committed. Much of this life saving equipment has come from previously funded stock piles at various critical locations around the world. Canadians have donated over $300,000 to date. Kimberley Rotary Club mailed a cheque for $2,700 on May 13. With the ongoing amazing support from our community we will be mailing another substantial cheque on May 20. See Page 3

Theory of a Deadman to play Cranbrook One of Canada’s top rock bands will be making a stop in Cranbroook on July 29. Theory of a Deadman is a platinum selling, Juno Award winning, Canadian hard rock band that became the first act to sign with Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger’s 604 Records in 2001. Since that time the

group has amassed an impressive string of awards and smash hits. In 2003 they won a Juno for Best New Group in Canada, and in 2009 their third of five studio albums received the Western Canadian Music Award for Top Rock Recording of the year. That album contained the m ainstream rock radio smash “Bad Girlfriend” as well as “So

Happy” and “By the Way”. Most recently their fourth album, 2011’s “The Truth Is,” landed in the Top 10 of Billboard’s Top Albums Chart upon its debut, while topping the “Top Hard Rock Albums”, “Top Alternative Albums”, and “Top Hard Rock Albums” charts. In addition, it spawned the No. 1 radio hit “Lowlife”, which

ruled rock radio for weeks. In 2014 the band released the album “Savages” on Roadrunner Records/604. “We wanted to give fans a great Theory of a Deadman record», said lead singer Tyler Connolly. “We owed them this album. It’s completely real, unrestrained and unbridled. We want their acceptance above all. This record was for the fans, and we are all extremely proud of it.” The song “Panic Room” from the album served as the theme song for WWE’s October payper-view Hell in a Cell. On April 28 of this year the band released a five-track acoustic EP titled “Angel”, which has received rave reviews from critics. Since the band’s inception, Theory of a Deadman has toured with many a familiar name in the rock world including, Motley Crue, Alter Bridge, Stone Sour, Godsmack

Pilot killed fire fighting near Cold Lake, AB was from Cranbrook THE C ANADIAN PRESS

COLD LAKE, Alta. Police say wildfire conditions at the scene of the crash of a firefighting plane in northern Alberta are making it difficult for investigators to reach the site. The small aircraft used for fire suppression crashed Friday while battling a wildfire near Cold Lake, killing the 38-year-old pilot and only person onboard. He was from Cranbrook, according to reports from Global News. and had been fighting wild fires for four years. Mounties say the site is inside the Cold Lake Air Weapons Range, an area used by military pilots for weapons training. RCMP Cpl. Mike Dunsmore said the military and search and rescue personnel escorted police into the crash site late Friday and helped recover the body of the 38-year-old civilian pilot, who was the sole occupant of the aircraft. But Dunsmore said the fire, which the province reported Saturday has grown to 40 square kilometres since it started a day earlier, is mak-

ing it challenging for Transportation Safety Board investigators to safely enter the area. Jon Lee, the regional manager for the TSB, said investigators were headed to the site in a helicopter on Saturday afternoon with a provincial wildfire official to see if it would be safe to land. “If it is, they’ll set down. If not, they’ll re-assess,” said Lee, noting the decision would be up to the provincial official. Crews in northern Alberta have been fighting wildfires for more than a week, and warm and dry conditions have increased the fire hazard to high or extreme in some areas. The pilot who was killed worked for Conair Aerial Firefighting, and he and the plane were contracted by the Alberta government. “First responders like this pilot, and our many other dedicated wildland firefighters, put their lives on the line every day to ensure that our homes and families are safe,” incoming premier Rachel Notley said in a statement that of-

fered her condolences to the pilot’s family, friends and colleagues. “We owe them our most sincere gratitude. Even as they mourn the loss of one of their own, I know they will continue fighting the many fires burning within our borders.” Jeff Barry of Conair Aerial Firefighting said the pilot was in his fourth firefighting season with the company. “We’ve sent our accident investigation team and we’ll be co-operating with the Transportation Safety Board and the Alberta ESRD (Environment and Sustainable Resource Development) folks will be there as well,” Barry said Friday. Barry said the plane was a single-seater Air Tractor 802, known in the company as the “Fire Boss.” The company’s website said the amphibious plane is used to scoop up water from lakes or deliver fire retardent. Police said in a news release on Saturday that the crash scene has been secured. Lee said the crash investigation was still in

the early stages and he couldn’t speculate on the cause. Lt. Mathew Strong, a public affairs officer at CFB Cold Lake, said unexploded ordinance won’t be an issue for investigators. “They’re basically hunks of concrete that we drop from the aircraft for target practice,” Strong said about the bombs, noting the live weapons range is a smaller area that’s northeast of the fire. He added that military crews track both live and non-live weapons for disposal. Strong said a part of the range, the Primrose Lake Evaluation Range, was evacuated on Friday as a precaution due to the fire, but that the flames appear to be tracking away from the area. He said there were, however, some privately operated oil and gas facilities on the range that could still be in danger. Cenovus Energy said in a news release on Saturday that it has removed 1,700 staff at its operation at Foster Creek due to the fire. It said the fire was about 30 kilometres away, but

there was a risk the fire might close the main road to the operation. It said Foster Creek is still running with about 100 essential staff members to maintain safe operations, but it added there are evacuation plans if the threat of the fire increases. Canadian Natural Resources Ltd. said it has removed workers from its Primrose operations and temporarily shut down its crude oil production there. Notley has appealed to residents to respect the fire restrictions that are now in place in the province.

Opinion/Events Letters to the Editor

Frivolous spending Six months ago we had a city election where the candidates put forth their positions. Many listed deplorable roads and the need to address our broken infrastructure. A number were concerned with wildlife roaming city streets. Wesly Graham wanted to look at the possibility of an overpass (Townsman, Aug. 29, 2014). Lee Pratt said, “I’ve seen a lot of frivolous spending on unnecessary projects when our infrastructure, our roads, are just crumbling.” (Townsman, Oct. 2, 2014) Now the City sees potential opportunities to enhance and redevelop Idlewild Park. (Townsman, May 8, 2015). The pub-

lic input deadline is May 25 — a whopping 17 days. What’s behind the rush? The City “sees opportunities to enhance and redevelop Idlewild Lake.” Where did these spending opportunities come from? Is this a round-about way to more frivolous spending by City Hall? Idlewild Lake was not an issue for any candidate during the recent city election, and I haven’t heard of people in the streets marching for “enhancement and redevelopment” of Idlewild. The City’s suggestion that we turn Idlewild into an off-leash dog park or that we add a beach area — requiring endless truckloads of sand — is unwarranted. Idlewild is a gem the way it is; and if we need more frivolous spending, do it

elsewhere — and not on other Cranbrook jewels, Elizabeth Lake and the Community Forest. The Conservative government is scattering $150 million all across Canada for park enhancement and development. The deadline for applications is June 27, so announcement and photo ops can occur on the eve of the October federal election. The City Council needs to realize that chasing federal grants skews the mission and goals of the City, and it ties the City to future maintenance costs forever. William G.Hills Cranbrook

North Korea’s nuclear deterent

E

arly this month North Korea claimed to have launched a ballistic missile from a submerged submarine. Yesterday it announced that it can now make nuclear warheads small enough to fit on a missile. If both those claims are true, then it can now deliver a nuclear weapon on the United States, at least in theory, but there is always some doubt about North Korean claims. While a defence official in Pyongyang said on Wednesday that the country’s nuclear programme has “long been in the full-fledged stage of miniaturisation,” some Western defence experts think the North Koreans have not really mastered the art yet. But General Curtis M. Scaparrotti, the senior US military commander in South Korea, thinks otherwise. “I believe (the North Koreans) have the capability to have miniaturized the device at this point, and they have the technology to potentially actually deliver what they say they have,” Scaparrotti said last October. But to be sure that the miniaturised weapon actually works on a ballistic missile, North Korea would have to test-fire it to see if it survives the heat and vibration of re-entering the atmosphere in working order. It has not yet done that. Others think that the footage of the submarine launch may have been faked. The missile emerges from the sea, sure enough, with the Maximum Leader looking proudly on, but Kim Jong-un was obviously photoshopped in, and in one shot there seems to be a barge floating on the surface near the missile’s exit point. However, let us assume for a moment that both claims are true – because they will be sooner or later. What does North Korea intend to do

with its nuclear weapons? And why is it trying so urgently to persuade its enemies that they are ready to use now? The rational and conventional answer to the first question is that Pyongyang’s nukes are solely intended to deter the United States from using nuclear weapons on North Korea. The United States has long-standing military alliances with both South Korea and Japan, and it has never said that it would abstain from using nuclear weapons if there were a war between North Korea and its neighbours. In this rational world, having enough nuclear weapons to deter the United States from going nuclear would give North Gwynne Korea a major advantage in the event of a ground Dyer war in the Korean peninsula. Its army is much bigger than the South Korean and US ground forces facing it, and it might even manage to overrun South Korea in a non-nuclear war. Or at least, it may believe it could. How many North Korean nuclear weapons would be enough to deter the United States from using its own nukes, in this context? A dozen would probably do it, and Prof. Siegfried Hecker of Stanford University, a former director of the Los Alamos National Laboratory, thinks that North Korea probably now has that many, “half likely fuelled by plutonium and half by highly enriched uranium.” But rationality has not been the outstanding feature of politics in North Korea recently. In the past three years Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un has purged most of the men who worked closely with his father, Kim Jong-il, and many have been executed. Whole families have been murdered, including some with links by blood or marriage to Kim’s own. The crimes imputed to the victims and the methods of killing also grow increas-

ingly bizarre. South Korea’s National Intelligence Service reported recently that North Korea’s defence minister, General Hyon Yong Chol, was executed last month for falling asleep during a meeting where Kim Jong-un was present. Again according to the NIS, the weapon used to execute General Hyon was a ZSU23-4, a Russian-made tracked anti-aircraft vehicle. It mounts four linked autocannons that fire 23 mm shells at the rate of 3,400 rounds per minute. If that report is true, it would have been hard to find enough of Hyon to bury. The impression this all creates of political chaos and utter uncertainty in the North Korean capital may be misleading. The old Soviet regime was never more monolithically stable than at the height of Stalin’s purges in 1936-38. But at the moment Kim’s regime certainly LOOKS unstable when viewed from the outside. There are no safe assumptions, including assumptions about the rationality of the leadership. So we cannot just assume that North Korea’s nukes are purely defensive, or that Kim Jong-un, after 28 years of living in a gilded cage and three and a half years of absolute power, has been adequately instructed in the theories of nuclear deterrence that have become orthodox in older nuclear-weapons states. Nor is anybody in the North Korean military hierarchy going to try to instruct him now, if he is ignorant in such matters. The simple truth is that the rest of the world doesn’t know what is happening in North Korea at the moment. The mystery has deepened with the abrupt last-minute cancellation of United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon’s scheduled visit to North Korea. We’ll have to wait to find out what’s really going on – but meantime military forces all over north-eastern Asia are undoubtedly on high alert.

Brand new ace

Rookie pitcher Shayne Walker leads Bandits to victory Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor

Rookie right-hander Shayne Walker couldn’t wipe the smile off his face. The 15-year-old native of Creston pitched a complete game in the Cranbrook Bandits home-opener at Confederation Park, helping guide his squad to a 5-1 victory over the Kootenai Valley Rangers in American Legion Baseball action Saturday afternoon. “It feels pretty good,” Walker (3-0) said. “Had the boys backing me up all the way. Just have to go with the flow, I guess. “Keeping the ball down, picking at the knees and having my boys back me up [helped me go the distance].”

With the Bandits playing their first home game of the 2015 American Legion Baseball season, head coach Paul Mrazek chose to hand the ball to his rookie ace in the first game of the doubleheader.

It didn’t take long for Walker to show why his coach has so much faith in him. Walker went the distance, throwing seven innings off the mound, whiffing three Rangers batters, while only giving up six hits and two walks. The only run against the Bandits on the day

came on a passed ball during the fifth inning. With no earned runs allowed, Walker improved his ERA to 1.07 through five appearances this season. “He keeps his pitch count down,” Mrazek said of Walker. “He struggled a little bit, but after that he got in his groove and was able to, for the most part, get ahead of the hitters. That way, he’s not going deep into the count and they’re not going to see a lot of pitches.” The rookie righthander got through seven innings of work having only thrown 91 pitches Saturday afternoon. The run support was there for Walker, as the Bandits jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning. Centre fielder Connor Armstrong got the bats going with a run-scoring triple that brought third baseman Robert Nickell home for a 1-0 lead. Armstrong finished the game 2-for-4, with an RBI and a run. “It’s nice to play at

Like Armstrong, Bird wrapped the opening game of the doubleheader with a 2-for-4 performance at the

plate. He added two RBIs and one run for good measure, while walking twice. That was really all the Bandits needed with solid team defense limiting the visiting Rangers to one run in the opening game. If his contributions from the mound weren’t enough, Walker got into the action offensively as well, going 2-for-3 at the plate and scoring one run on a balk to put his team ahead 3-0 in the bottom of the second

inning. “Making the pitcher work, putting balls in play and having a sharp eye,” Walker said. “That’s what gave us success [at the plate].” The Bandits padded the lead by adding a run in the bottom of the fifth inning and two more in the bottom of the sixth. After cruising to victory in the opening game of Saturday’s doubleheader, things didn’t go quite as smoothly for the Bandits in the back half against the Rangers. Building a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the second inning, the Bandits then fell behind as the Rangers rolled to a fourrun third inning, before extending the lead to 6-1 in the top of the fifth. A spirited rally made the final score close, but it wasn’t enough as the Bandits fell 6-4 to split Saturday’s doubleheader with the Rangers. “We got down on ourselves,” Armstrong said, “We got back into the game too late to comeback for a win. “[You have to] keep positive and not get down on yourself. [When you’re down] you’re not going to want to be in the game and you’re going to make more errors and less hits because you’re not focused. “We have to work together as a team, not get down on ourselves and we’ll be able to pull out some more wins.” Bird (0-1) started the game on the mound for the Bandits, lasting 2.2 innings before giving way to Daniel Mercandelli. Bird was tagged with the loss, but wasn’t the

only Bandits pitcher to have a tough go as Mercandelli only lasted 0.2 innings before Noah Rennette came on in relief for 0.2 innings. Jake Bromley finished the day on the bump, lasting three innings. A three-run sixth inning made the game interesting as shortstop Carson Meggison laid down a bunt, which paired with a Rangers’ fielding error to bring two runs across. On the following atbat, second baseman Rylan D’Etcheverry slapped a single to centre field, brining Meggison home to make it 6-4. That’s as close as the Bandits got. “It was great to win the first game. We played pretty solid,” Mrazek said. “We need to tidy a couple things up, but that was a good start. “But we can’t go into the second game and go in flat like that. We can’t go from playing so well to that flat, making errors and not hitting the ball.” The doubleheader split with the Rangers leaves the Bandits 6-3 in the early stages of their American Legion Baseball season. Sunday, the Bandits travelled to Pincher Creek for a doubleheader against Fort Macleod. Results were unavailable by print deadline. “We’re progressing well,” Mrazek said. “Offensively, we’ve got to hit the ball on the ground. Fly balls don’t take bad hops.” The Bandits travel to Whitefish to face Glacier ‘B’ Twins on, May 30, before visiting the Libby Loggers on May 31.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I work in an office with 35 women, and it seems as though someone is always hating someone else. Right now, I am the target of two women. One of these women used to be my friend, and I have no idea why she isn’t any longer. I once asked her about it, but her reply surprised me. She said I took advantage of her by switching shifts so I could leave early while she worked late. I double-checked and discovered that, of the many times we switched, I ended up working late shifts more often than she did. She also said I spoke poorly about her ex-husband, who cheated on her for years while she cried on my shoulder. She claims she never once spoke against my ex, but the truth is, her constant negative comments were instrumental in my final decision to leave him. I don’t understand why she is angry enough to end a decades-long friendship, although she has done this with other people in her life. She now works with a woman who used to be friendly but no longer speaks to me except to insult me. I have done nothing to deserve this treatment. I still am friendly toward them because I don’t want to lower myself to their childish level. But it bothers me, especially because it is so obvious. Is there any way to make this better, or do I simply have to live with it? -- Upset at Work Dear Upset: Your ex-friend and her co-worker enjoy the negative vibes because it makes them feel powerful and in control. Because they feed off of each other, it prevents either one from listening to others’ opinions or working out their issues. It’s not uncommon for co-workers to behave as though they never left high school. Stop trying to befriend either of these women, and ignore their negativity. Do your job, act professionally and neutrally toward them, and try to make friends with others. These sad women aren’t worth one second of your time. Dear Annie: I am a communication skills consultant. I disagree with your response to “Beaucoup Baffled,” who received an invitation to an overseas wedding and wanted to know whether she could bring a friend. You suggested a rather cryptic response (“I’m not sure I’m up to making such a long journey by myself”) in the hope that the future bride would understand the hidden meaning. Why not just ask a simple question, such as “Would it be OK if I brought my boyfriend?” -- Blainville, Quebec Dear Quebec: We understand your objection, but it is wrong to put the bride in a position where she could feel obligated to invite an extra person. She may not have the room or the budget to do so. She even may have intended to introduce her traveling friend to a nice French guy. By saying that one is not up to making the trip alone, it gives the bride the option of including the extra person without backing her into a corner or forcing her to be unkind.

Obituaries Arthur George Thomas Reeve “Tom� 1923 – 2015

With much sadness, our family wishes to announce the passing of Tom Reeve on Tuesday, May 19, 2015. Dad was born in London, England on July 23, 1923. Our father served in the Royal Air Force as an armourer during WWII. He immigrated to Canada in 1957 with his wife and eldest daughter. We were very blessed to have a father, dad and papa like Tom. He was a true gentleman and respected by many. Tom had a 25 year career in the insurance industry as a broker and was a partner in the Sivorite Reeve Insurance Agency. He was a strong supporter and dedicated member of the Fraternal Order Of Eagles (F.O.E.). Tom was predeceased by his wife Betty. He is survived by his sister Doll in London, England; his three children Helen (Barry), David (Anna-Lisa) and Jennifer (Ken); and five grandchildren Brett, Shaun, Bryan, Steven and Kaylin. At Tom’s request there will be no celebration of life service. Papa, we will miss you and will cherish our memories together forever. Love your family. Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service. Condolences for the family can be offered at: www.mcphersonfh.com

Personals HI! I’m a Cranbrook man in my early 50’s, professionally employed, attractive with a busy life. I find the internet dating to be misleading with a lack of honesty. If you are between 35 and 50, don’t drink or do drugs, have Christian values, are spiritual and interested in quality friendship, I would like to meet you. Must love the outdoors and boating! Not large, sorry. Please write to me c/o: Box ‘M’, Cranbrook Daily Townsman 822 Cranbrook St. N. Cranbrook BC V1C 3R9

NEWS Driverless trucks hauling cargo to Mexico? Group hopes to make it reality

daily bulletin

That means other commodities, such as grain, need to fight for space on trains. A separate corridor could relieve that pressure, he said. “We’re hopeful that, working with the Canadian government, the Mexican government, the United States, we can create some kind of automated way ... (to) streamline that process of border crossings.” The technology, though experimental, already exists in driverless vehicles that use tools such as GPS to navigate roads, Anderson said. Unmanned vehicles are more efficient, he suggested. “They don’t need to worry about a driver having too many hours in a day or in a week. Those types of things go by the wayside because the vehicle doesn’t care.” Anderson said he understands why the idea is unnerving for some, but noted that unmanned vehicles have the potential to remove human error from driving. “What we have to do is to educate people.” One of the concerns Anderson hears most often is that a vehicle’s system could be hacked and taken over. “There have to be security measures in place so that doesn’t happen.” Roy Ludwig, mayor of Estevan in southeastern Saskatchewan near the border, attended the association’s summit and says he believes in the project. “You have to flesh it out and take care of all the intricacies, but it’s definitely worthwhile looking into it,” he said. “I would support the new technologies and see where they go.” Ludwig added that such a corridor could foster trade with the United States. “I think you’ll see more and more people get interested as this gains momentum. “It’s not that far away.”
