Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops is down to a single oncologist and new patients will be referred for consultations in Kelowna. The move comes after one of two oncologists in the city went on maternity leave, leaving just Dr. Brad Proctor. The unit of the B.C. Cancer Agency is supposed to have three medical oncologists, but efforts to recruit have not been successful. “It’s been a hard-to-recruit location,” said John Larmet, regional director of the Sindi Ahluwalia Hawkins Centre for the Southern Interior. To cope with the shortage, Larmet said newly diagnosed patients will go to Kelowna for an initial consultation, along with follow-ups this summer. The agency is scrambling to install a high-quality video link that will eventually allow subsequent consultations to be done from Kamloops to one of about 10 oncologists at the Kelowna cancer centre. That system is used in the Cariboo and Kootenays, where there are no oncologists available in person. Larmet said patients will continue to travel to Kelowna to receive radiation treatment for cancer, but will be able to undergo chemotherapy at RIH as usual.
Strike puts halt to recyclables collection Do not put your recycling bin out for collection this week as a strike means you will need to hang onto your newspaper and milk jugs. Employees with Emterra Environmental, the City of Kamloops’ contractor for processing recyclables, are behind picket lines at the Valleyview recycling plant at 1733 Kelly Douglas Rd. The strike went into effect on Monday. They are members of the United Steelworkers Local 1-417. Glen Farrow, streets and environmental services manager, said the city doesn’t have anywhere it can store recyclables as it waits for Emterra to re-open. Farrow said the city will not be picking up

recycling material from homes until further notice. This includes not collecting cardboard from some businesses. Nor will the city be collecting material from its four recycling depots (located on McGill Road, Ord Road and at the Mission Flats and Barnhartvale landfills). Residents are asked to store their recyclables on their property if possible. Alternatively, recycling can be taken to the following MultiMaterial BC recycling locations, but all materials must be separated and sorted prior to drop off (i.e. paper, plastic, foam, glass, etc.). • Lorne Street Bottle Depot: 270 Halston Ave. • General Grant’s Recycling Centre:
611 Fortune Dr. • General Grant’s Recycling Centre: 963 Camosun Cresc. Allen Langdon, managing director of MMBC said that while Emterra is also one of its processors, the organization has other options for dealing with recycled materials. “We’re expecting there’ll be more material coming to the depot and we’re expecting at this point we can handle it,” he said. Regular garbage collection will not be affected and will continue as usual. City landfills remain open. For regular updates, go online to kamloops. ca.

Kamloops’ most infamous private landfill could soon be in city hands. At its meeting today, city council will be asked to borrow $10 million to buy the Owl Road dump, located between Valleyview and Juniper Ridge, and convert it into a site for recycling construction and demolition waste. Purchasing the property will cost $6.3 million, with the remaining $3.7 million used to reduce the size of Owl Road’s landfill by 40 per cent and convert the property to its new use. In a report to council, streets and environmental services manager Glen Farrow said the city will process construction waste such as wood and asphalt into new, useable products and ship them off-site. By diverting construction material to Owl Road, the city believes it can get another 27 years out of its Mission Flats dump, which would otherwise be slated for closure in 2025. Farrow said the city plans to pay down the debt through landfill tipping fees, which it can do without raising the price to dump.
Farrow said the purchase would have no impact on taxes, solid-waste rates or landfill tipping fees. The Owl Road dump and its owner, Daniel Ambrosi, have been made news headlines. In 2007, the landfill was the site of a major blaze that took Kamloops firefighters and 30 additional off-duty staff members a full 24 hours to subdue. After several appeals, Ambrosi was eventually able to avoid paying the $31,000 bill for putting out the fire. In 2010, Ambrosi was convicted under two counts of the Environmental Management Act for failing to compact and cover demolition material within five days and failing to submit an annual report by deadline. In 2012, city council of the day wrote to the province, asking it to look into reports of blowing garbage in the area near the dump. If the borrowing is approved, the sale of the landfill will go through on Dec. 15. The Owl Road landfill between Valleyview and Juniper Ridge is best known for a massive fire in 2007. Owner Daniel Ambrosi (pictured) succeeded in his battle to not cover the $31,000 bill associated with dousing the blaze. KTW FILE PHOTO

BARKING MAD IN JUNIPER ANDREA KLASSEN
STAFF REPORTER
andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com
There’s a new dog park in Juniper Ridge — but not everyone’s wagging their tails over the development. “I am saddened that a dog park comes at the expense of the beauty of our neighbourhood and our children,” reads one comment from Juniper Ridge resident Amber Hooton posted last week to a new Facebook group about the park. A number of residents, who are airing their grievances on social media, say they were taken by surprise when a fence went up on one half of the Juniper Ridge Park soccer field earlier this month. They feel the city should have done more consultation with the neighbourhood before
proceeding with the dog park on an existing sports field. “Such a confusing, sudden and unattractive thing to do in a public place that was pretty harmonious in the neighbourhood,” wrote Hettie Buck. “Sad to see such disrespect to everyone that should have been involved in the decisionmaking process.” The controversy appears to have taken both the city and the Juniper Ridge Community Association by surprise. Community association chairwoman Gillian Stephenson said her group has been working with the city on a dog park for five years — and made no secret of it. “Nothing was done that was hidden or untoward,” Stephenson said, noting none of the residents who have a

bone to pick with the new park have attended community association meetings. Parks, recreation and cultural services director Byron McCorkell said his department spent years working with the community association on the park, including hosting a public meeting on the issue in 2012. The dog park was also up for debate by council in last year’s budget and again in 2015. “They felt this was something that needed to happen, it was something they were hearing in their neighbourhood was wanted and so we actioned it,” McCorkell said. But, the park’s rough reception has the city hitting pause. The parks department now plans to host another meeting in Juniper as soon as it can

to let residents debate the fate of the park, McCorkell said. “If the consensus is it needs to go, it’ll go,” he said. “If we can find an alternative that satisfies both parties, we can look at that, too.” McCorkell said the city chose to use half a field it had already divided into mini-fields for the Kamloops Youth Soccer Association (KYSA) because there isn’t much city-owned parkland to choose from in Juniper.

a dog park has stirred up emotions in Kamloops. McCorkell said Westsyde’s Centennial Park, also on existing green space, received criticism — though not to the same extent. “If I’m not a dog person, I don’t see a need for dog parks and, if I’m an old-school dog owner, I don’t want to use a dog park,” he said. “But, there’s a new, growing trend to allow these socialization areas for dogs.” The city funds dog parks through doglicence fees.

the dog-park controversy, saying the city gave it “ample time” to deal with any scheduling change.) The city chose to fence a relatively large area to avoid complaints from dog owners. “One of the biggest complaints we get in this new era of dog parks is that they’re not big enough,” McCorkell said. “The one we built on River Street, it’s constantly debated that it’s not big enough for the amount of usage it gets.” It’s not the first time
the city licensed about 7,000 dogs annually. If the park remains, McCorkell said the city would, over time, add benches, trees and other features to make it more visually appealing. “It would become a park amenity no different than the other things we do. We don’t just throw up a fence and walk away,” he said. While some residents are barking mad, others with and without dogs say the dog park is much needed in the neighbourhood. “I live across the street from the dog park and can see six people and three fur kids in there,” wrote James McLeod. “Maybe I’m old school but, if enough of you hate it so much that you can’t sleep at night, then go cut it down one sleepless night.”

Supreme Court rules in favour of city CAM FORTEMS
STAFF REPORTER
cam@kamloopsthisweek.com
The city was correct in ruling out a cheaper bid to construct the Aberdeen fire hall when the company failed to meet its requirements, a B.C. Supreme Court justice has ruled. True Construction Ltd. sued the City of Kamloops after it declined to accept its $3.4-million bid in 2010. Instead, citing irregularities in the company’s bid, the city went with a bid from Tri-City Contracting (B.C.) Ltd. —
about $150,000 higher. After discussions with lawyers, city staff recommended to council that it go with Tri-City’s bid. Council approved that recommendation. B.C. Supreme Court Justice Hope Hyslop ruled faxed appendices to True’s bid did not meet the letter of the city bid, which called for a sealed document. “True never completed its sealed bid; its fax completing that which should have been in its sealed bid was not an acceptable revision,” Hyslop said. Hyslop said that fax completion of the
bid allowed True an advantage in lastminute negotiations with subcontractors. “By not completing the bid appendices, True avoided the risk of performing an unprofitable contract incapable of acceptance,” she ruled. “Whether True intended this or not need not be proved. “Rather, this is the effect of not completing the bid documents and then attempting to complete the bid documents by fax.” Hyslop said the city must ensure bids “are made from the position of a fair playing field.”

Justice will decide if guilty plea will stand CAM FORTEMS
STAFF REPORTER
cam@kamloopsthisweek.com
A B.C. Supreme court justice will determine whether a 41-year-old Kamloops man can plead guilty and be sentenced for murdering a woman who once lived with him. Aug. 5 to Aug. 7 has been set aside in B.C. Supreme Court for a sentencing hearing for Christopher Butler. He has pleaded
guilty to second-degree murder in connection to the death of Deanne Wheeler, 26, whose body was found in a North Shore apartment on Dec. 30. Butler has declined a lawyer and is representing himself in court. In April, he was found mentally fit to stand trial. During earlier court appearances, Butler has blurted out incoherent statements about God and religion and become
fixated on the coat of arms in the courtroom. The options before the B.C. Supreme Court justice during the sentencing hearing include accepting the guilty plea and handing down a sentence or declining the plea and instead ordering a trial. Butler and Wheeler had been involved in a romantic relationship in the past, but were not together at the time of her death.

Q) With all of the services being offered to seniors to keep them in their homes why would I consider a move to a retirement community?
A) There are many benets when considering a move to a retirement community; nutritious well balanced meals, housekeeping, transportation, emergency response and recreational activities. Most importantly, the opportunity to stay socially connected is a benet that is often overlooked. Building new relationships and social connections with likeminded people can help you live a longer, happier and healthier life. Remaining in your home can result in growing isolation and loneliness. Studies show that having low social interaction is as bad for your health as smoking, alcoholism and as harmful as never exercising. Staying socially active can help you maintain good physical and emotional health and cognitive function as well as help protect against illness by boosting your immune system. While planning for your post retirement years why not choose a place where you can create and enjoy new friendships. Your overall quality of life and health will improve! Guaranteed!

trouble with the law. The victim testified that included him. Hume was also active with the B.C. Ambassador program for youth and became deeply ingrained in Lytton after marrying the band administrator, who has since died. “It placed him in a trust role . . . in a job with court and social issues,” Crown prosecutor Chris Balison said. Kaiser presented 66 letters of support. But, Balison argued, the court should not consider those letters of support because it was that very reputation that allowed Hume to be trusted by his victim. “He was essentially flaunting his power over a disadvantaged young man,” Balison said, adding Hume continues to deny his actions and remains remorseless. During the trial, Hume claimed the victim made up the bizarre story after he would not hand over $200, in what Hume characterized as an attempted extortion. However, the jury sided with the Crown, who said Hume’s
story could not be believed. The victim was emotional during his testimony, struggling through tears as he testified to waking up on an August morning in 2013 after a drinking session as Hume was shaving his pubic region. Much of his body hair had been removed. He testified Hume laughed and said, “Your girlfriend will like it.” Hume then drove the young man home, gave him $50 and warned not to tell anyone. During the trial, Hume denied shaving the complainant, though he did acknowledge police seized hair from his vacuum cleaner and agreed with the Crown it was not animal hair. Hume still lives in Lytton. Lytton First Nation Chief Janet Webster wrote a victim impact statement, calling Hume’s actions “a crime against the entire community, not just one individual.” B.C. Supreme Court Justice Sheri Donegan is expected to give her sentencing decision on Friday.

exchange for cocaine. Anderson, who was a university student at the time, admitted to selling the drug to undercover police officers on six occasions in Kamloops between April 24 and June 19, 2012. In his final interaction with police on June 19, 2012, Anderson sold an undercover officer half an ounce of cocaine for $1,000 outside Milestones restaurant. Over the course of the investigation, Anderson sold 22.5 grams of cocaine to undercover police officers, amounting to $1,661, federal Crown prosecutor John Walker said. At the time, Anderson was a business student at Douglas College. He sold drugs when he returned to Kamloops during breaks in
his schooling. In handing down his sentence on Friday, Kamloops provincial court Judge Len Marchand described Anderson as “a people pleaser” and “a follower” who was unaware of the harm his drugtrafficking was causing. “I accept that his colossal mistake of becoming involved in the drug trade was out of character,” he said. Marchand placed Anderson on a 15-month conditionalsentence order, the first nine months of which will be served under house arrest. For the six months that follow, Anderson will be bound by a 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. curfew. Anderson will only be allowed to possess one cellphone for the duration of his sentence and will be bound by a 10-year weapons ban.
He will also have to submit a sample of his DNA to a national criminal database. Marchand also ordered Anderson to pay an “elevated” victim-crime surcharge of $2,000. Tyrell MacDougall, also charged in connection to the investigation, was recently handed a conditional sentence order for his part at the employee level. Richard Crawford and Steven Lloyd Currie are believed to have been near the top of the operation and await trial. Jean Claude Auger, the operation’s ringleader, was recently sent to jail for four years. Police said at the time the cocaine network had ties to the United Nations gang, though that allegation has not since been argued in court.

Flare stack coming to Mission Flats CAM FORTEMS
STAFF REPORTER
cam@kamloopsthisweek.com
The next phase of methane collection at the city’s Mission Flats landfill will see the gas burned in a stack to reduce its power as a greenhouse gas. A piping system to collect methane at the landfill was installed last year. That came in wake of provincial regulations requiring landfills over a certain size to collect and convert captured methane to carbon dioxide. That will be done by a flare stack scheduled to be commissioned next month, said city environmental services supervisor Glen Farrow. The stack is near the transfer station at the landfill.
At Cache Creek landfill, a flare stack was recently replaced by reciprocating engines expected to generate 4.8-megawatts of electricity — enough to power about 2,500 homes. Farrow said the city will collect data on methane capture over the next year to determine whether that is economically feasible in Kamloops. It may also be possible to scrub the gas and feed it to a Fortis Inc. pipeline. “We need to have better understanding of the quality and quantity,” he said. The latter option may be less feasible, however, due to the need to extend the line from Domtar Corp.’s Kamloops pulp mill. No matter the option, the city will have to confirm there is enough methane
produced, and for long enough, to ensure gas or energy production is economically viable. “In the past, we were led to believe it was so minimal it wouldn’t be worth it,” Farrow said, noting the option to scrub gas or create power at Mission Flats will determine how the city deals with organic waste. In some communities, food scraps are separated and recycled separately. But, those organics will be a necessary feedstock at the landfill if the city is to create power because they contribute to gas production. There is no requirement under provincial law to collect methane at the Barnhartvale landfill or the former McGill Road landfill.
Bankruptcy prompts kiosk change The same parking stations used in downtown Kamloops are coming to the Tournament Capital Centre. At its meeting today, Kamloops city council will decide whether to install five of the digital pay stations supplied by Precise ParkLink, at a cost of $58,700. The pay stations would replace several pay stations already in place at the TCC, which were installed and supported by the now-bankrupt company Parktoria. While the city looked at keeping the machines and operating them through a third party, a report to council says that plan “had a high risk of failure,” compared to converting the lot over to ParkLink.
The report said the city does not plan to immediately change its approach to pay parking at the TCC at this time. It will continue to provide free parking for two hours for Hillside and TCC visitors and pay parking for other users of the 247stall parking lot. However, more tweaks could be coming once the new system is in place. “In the future, city staff will explore how the TCC’s updated parking system could potentially be leveraged to generate new revenue streams, improve the availability of parking for legitimate TCC visitors and support the city’s sustainability objectives,” the report notes.

CONGRATS TO ALL OF THE GRADS
F
rom the end of May through the end of June, it’s graduation season. Students of all ages, from elementary, middle and high schools to colleges and universities, are closing a chapter in their lives and starting out on a new adventure. For graduating high-school students especially, the ceremony was likely the biggest milestone in their young lives and the moments that got them to this point shouldn’t be discounted. Earning that Dogwood represents years of hard work and dedication. Think of all it took to get to this point: the tests, the homework, the projects, the classes, the early start times and the occasional sleepless night. For some, that next step means entering the workforce, hopefully in a field of their choice. For others, it is another step along their educational journey — entering college or university. For all, it’s a time of transition and opportunity. This milestone is also a memory to treasure for their families. They will have seen their loved one complete the cycle — from kindergarten through junior high and then high school and, finally, finishing college. Cameras snapped, parents applauded and valedictorians told students their “real” lives have now begun. We congratulate them — and their families — on reaching this milestone and wish them all well. It is also a time of continued celebration following prom or dry grad or an unsanctioned event. Friend will stretch out the last few weeks of bliss as July and August beckon and summer parties will be a regular calendar item.. Just be sure to celebrate responsibly. Making good transportation choices during the will mean a safe end to the evening and will hopefully ensure the magic of this month continues as life’s path unwinds.

View from the East Coast
I
’ve just spent two weeks viewing events from the opposite side of Canada, in and around St. John’s. It’s the same country, but you wouldn’t know it sometimes. Here on the West Coast, “kayaktivists” paddled around a Shell offshore oil-drilling platform being serviced in Seattle, striking poses of resistance for the media from their petroleum-based watercraft. Meanwhile, at Bull Arm outside St. John’s, work continues on a massive gravity-based structure that will soon be drilling into the Hebron oilfield 350 kilometres offshore. It will have living quarters and drill rig above and a tank with capacity for 1.2-million barrels of crude below. Offshore oil has turned St. John’s into a boomtown. With one industrial park nearing capacity on the edge of town, a second is under construction. Locals call it “Dannyland,” after its developer, former premier Danny Williams. St. John’s Airport is buzzing with flights back and forth to Edmonton and Fort McMurray and crew helicopters shuttling back and forth from offshore oil rigs. Tourism is picking up, with a new cross-Canada ad campaign and WestJet starting service to Dublin and London. A foreign supplier won a contract for tankers to bring oil ashore. With no media-connected environmental groups to steer the subject to far-fetched disaster scenarios, debate in the Newfoundland and Labrador leg-

VICTORIA islature turned to concerns about maintaining local employment. Outside the city, parallels with B.C. become evident. Tiny towns struggle to hang on as young people choose opportunity over isolation — and the only expansion is at church graveyards. While cities struggle with high housing and recreational property costs, homes in remote areas are going for a song. Up north in Labrador, a hydroelectric dam at Muskrat Falls is under construction. Its $8-billion estimated price tag is in the same range as BC Hydro’s Site C project on the Peace River, which will part a sea of protesters and lawyers and move ahead this summer. Nalcor Energy, Newfoundland’s electrical utility, is dipping into contingencies in an effort to keep it on time and on budget. Here on the Left Coast, enviros and the Green Party rail against hydro as well as oil and gas — and, of course, you can’t even mention nuclear. Climate activism proceeds in a logical vacuum in these parts, as
it often does in Europe. Prime Minister Stephen Harper signed on to a farcical “carbon free in 85 years” pledge at the G7 meeting in Germany. But, hey, it’s an election year, not a time for serious discussion of issues. Imperial Oil’s Kearl oilsands mine in Fort McMurray has started production from its $9-billion second phase, with the help of many Newfoundlanders. Production continues to grow, heavy oil prices have surged with paving season and large-scale liquefied natural-gas export plans begin to take shape in B.C. With the legislature about to be recalled to endorse the Petronas-led LNG export project, Premier Christy Clark has assembled a climate-action team with representatives from industry, First Nations, local governments and a couple of professional protesters for good measure. They have an absurdly short deadline to recommend changes to B.C.’s token carbon tax, as gasoline consumption returns to pre-tax levels despite continued high pump prices. In St. John’s, another long, cold winter has finally loosened its grip after piling snow to doorknob levels. Every street in sight is being patched and repainted. The debate about new energy supplies has a more serious tone in Newfoundland. The last elected premier, Kathy Dunderdale, lost her job in the wake of winter power blackouts. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

YOUR OPINION LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
WOMEN BE WARY OF NORTH KOREAN NEWS NOT MADE FOR WAR Editor: Re: (‘Harper condemns top general’s comments on sexual harassment,’ June 18): The Canadian Press article speaks to a lack of understanding of the stresses of war. Gen. Tom Lawson spoke appropriately of the effect of war on the male psyche and was misunderstood by the media, while Prime Minister Stephen Harper attempted to assuage his electorate by being politically inoffensive. My six years of service as a commissioned officer in the Second World War demonstrated to me clearly that extended periods away from home environment, sudden enforced changes of destination and constant threat of injury and death will severely erode normal attitudes of civility and respect in most men. Moreover, history has shown us that women, for the most part, are neither designed nor equipped for war. A good example of this is the unsuccessful and historical attempt of the Amazons to be as men. Surely the most effective solution to the problem is to avoid placing women in the front line of military conflict. Ted Joslin Kamloops
Editor: Gwynne Dyer’s World Watch column of May 28 (‘The mystery of North Korea’s nukes’) is rubbish. The only true statement in it was this: “The simple truth is that the rest of the world doesn’t know what is happening in North Korea at the moment.” In the past, there have been many reports of individuals media indicated were executed in North Korea, but who later showed up very much alive and well. Kim Jong Un’s former girlfriend is one of the more well-known examples. Jang Song-thaek was executed for attempting to stage a military coup, but North Korean media presented the charges against him and there was no mystery about that. In that case, thought, the means of execution reported in the West was bogus. Based on repeated past cases of what turned out to be false reports, a healthy dose of skepticism is called for on anything written about North Korea. South Korea’s National Intelligence Service (NIS) that
Dyer quotes is a notorious liar. The NIS plays a prominent role in spreading propaganda, especially in regard to North Korea. The service also fabricated portions of a transcript of Lee Seok-ki’s speech in South Korea, in May of last year, to make an anti-war speech appear as if it was a call to take up arms against the government. That was then used as justification to forcibly disband the socialist Unified Progressive Party. The NIS was also heavily involved in the last South Korea presidential election, posting thousands upon thousands of stories and comments on the Internet, defaming liberal and left candidates. So, was Hyon Yong Chol executed? No one outside North Korea knows — and, in particular, Dyer, who flogs propaganda liberally. The lack of mention of any serious charge against Chol, or any particular charge at all, should make any true journalist skeptical. The means of execution (antiaircraft gun and hundreds of
witnesses) and Dyer does not provide a shred of evidence this took place? It sounds so overdone, which strikes me as implausible and idiotic to be published. There is also a report in the South Korean Yonhop News Agency, which mentions photos of Hyon appeared in the North Korean press subsequent to his alleged execution. That report can be found online at http://m.yna.co.kr/ mob2/en/contents_en.jsp?cid=AE N20150514005251315&domain=3 &ctype=A&site=0100000000. Like other cases that turned out to be fabrications, one may have to wait a year or two before it is revealed the person was seen very much alive on a North Korean news report. Of course, the correction will only be on relatively obscure news sites. It won’t get the headline treatment the media give to the unsubstantiated claim of execution, such as that we read from Dyer.

Kamloops’ newest casino is asking for the city’s support for three new liquor licences that would allow it to serve alcohol to more than 3,000 people in its casino, restaurants and pubs. Gateway Casinos, owner of the soon-to-open Cascades Casino, is seeking the city’s support for a 1,942-person license for its casino, including a patio that could hold up to 127 people, a 970-person license for its restaurant and pub, which includes three patios holding a combined 518 people, and a third licence for its sports bar area, which could hold 161 people. Staff are recommending council support the applications, but with a few caveats. While the casino is asking to serve alcohol from 9 a.m., Kamloops’ Social Planning Council has concerns over early-morning alcohol services. Staff are instead proposing an 11 a.m. start, identical to what the city supported recently for Chances Gaming Centre on the North Shore. Staff also want to see patios at the casino close at 11 p.m., well before
the 2 a.m. shutdown Gateway is proposing, because of noise concerns and to keep the facility in line with others the city has supported. But, Gateway is arguing the patios won’t generate significant noise. The company said it has conducted an acoustic noise study in the area and found patios would generate a level of noise that’s lower than the baseline noise volume with which nearby residents are already living. As a condition of approval, the city is also asking the company to cancel its 705-person liquor license for Lake City Casino, which will shut when the new facility opens. Once the city makes its determination on the casino’s application, its feedback will be forwarded to the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch. Cascades Casino is scheduled to open July 29 at Versatile Drive and Hugh Allan Drive, on the former Rona property between Aberdeen and Pineview Valley. The current Lake City Casino operates in Hotel 540 on Victoria Street in downtown Kamloops.

Kamloops Wine Trail welcomes vino lovers Trish Morelli, executive director of the Kamloops Wineries Association: “For a growing wine industry in its infancy, it’s all about awareness, getting the word out that wineries do exist in Kamloops.” JESSICA WALLACE PHOTOS/KTW

New highway signs are among efforts to promote the expanding Kamloops-area wine industry, along with a local wine-trail designation. The newly formed Kamloops Wineries Association launched the Kamloops Wine Trail yesterday afternoon at Monte Creek Ranch, the latest winery in the area to open its tasting room to the public. It connects four wineries in the Kamloops area: Sagewood, Harper’s Trail, Monte Creek Ranch and Privato. Trish Morelli, executive director of the association, told a room full of dignitaries that an awareness campaign for what has been dubbed
“B.C.’s newest wine experience” includes a new website — kamloopswinetrail. com which went live today — a consumer brochure and passport and billboard advertising. The launch comes after Ministry of Transportation Todd Stone announced new highway signage on Friday.
Five signs promoting the Kamloops wineries have been placed at entrances to the city. Smaller signs also direct visitors off the highway to the wineries. “This industry is just getting started,” he said. “We’ve got four in Kamloops. There’s others being dis-
cussed, I’m sure.” Stone said one of the challenges for the wineries and the regional industry itself is building awareness among consumers, something the signs and route will assist. Morelli credited Stone’s ministry for acting quickly on the signage program. “For a growing
wine industry in its infancy it’s all about awareness, getting the word out that wineries do exist in Kamloops,” she said. Stone said the B.C. Liberal government is also committed to removing interprovincial trade barriers to B.C. wine. “It’s absurd you can go to Washington, Oregon or California
and you have a better selection of B.C. wines than in Alberta or Ontario. “This is not acceptable in today’s age.” The Kamloops Wine Trail is about 60 kilometres, spanning from the east side of the city to the west. Divine Tours and Tasteful Excursions offer wine tour transportation.
NEW
The association is hosting an open house on Saturday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at each of the four wineries, including free wine tastings, tours, appetizers and entertainment. The owners and winemakers will also be on hand for a meet and greet with those who attend.

VANCOUVER — A British Columbia Mountie convicted of lying to a public inquiry has been sentenced to 30 months in prison. RCMP Const. Kwesi Millington was found guilty of perjury earlier this year after a B.C. Supreme Court judge concluded he colluded with his fellow officers over testimony given before a public inquiry looking into the death of Robert Dziekanski. Millington was one of four officers who approached Dziekanski at Vancouver’s airport in October 2007. Within seconds of the confrontation with the Polish man, officers jolted him with a Taser. He died on the floor of Vancouver’s airport. All four officers were charged with perjury.
ZOFIA CISOWSKI: “I’m now shaking, but I start crying because I was waiting eight years about this sentence.”
Millington and former corporal Benjamin (Monty) Robinson were convicted, while constables Bill Bentley and Gerry Rundell were acquitted. Dziekanski’s mother, Zofia Cisowski, said she’s pleased Millington is headed to prison. “It’s some justice, finally, after almost eight years,’’ the Kamloops woman said outside court yesterday. “I’m now shak-
ing, but I start crying because I was waiting eight years about this sentence.’’ Justice William Ehrcke said the sentence for Millington had to denounce the officer’s actions and provide a deterrence. Perjury is a very serious offence that undermines the administration of justice, Ehrcke told the court. Millington’s lawyer had asked for a one year conditional sentence, while the Crown sought three years behind bars. Millington’s lawyer has indicated the conviction will be appealed. Gordon Comer, spokesman for the Criminal Justice Branch, said Millington began his sentence yesterday, but is eligible to apply for bail pending a decision on his appeal.
CBC ad revenue nowhere near goal Broadcaster brought in just $1.1-million in 2014 PETER HENDERSON

TORONTO — CBC/Radio-Canada’s poor numbers from its experiment with paid commercials on Radio 2 and Espace Musique show that the public broadcaster “clearly’’ misjudged the market for national advertising on its music-focused radio channels, one industry watcher says. The CBC raised $1.1 million in revenue from ad sales on the two music-focused networks in the 2014 broadcast year, according to the CRTC’s annual report on the financial results of Canadian commercial radio stations. That’s well below the $10 million the CBC hoped for when the CRTC approved its plan to air ads on the two channels. Canadian Media Research Inc. president Barry Kiefl said the broadcaster assumed there would be much more demand for the four minutes of ads per hour dictated by the CRTC. “It raises the question of why they did it in the first place,’’ Kiefl said. “They clearly had not gauged the marketplace for national advertising very accurately.’’
The new ad money also wasn’t nearly enough to cover an $18.2-million decline in government funding for the 2014 broadcast year, according to the CRTC report. Total revenue for the CBC’s 82 radio stations fell 5.6 per cent to $287.6 million for the 12 months ending Aug. 31, 2014. The CBC began airing ads at the beginning of October 2013, and the $1.1 million represents 11 months of ad sales from October to the end of August. Kiefl said that given the cost of selling advertising, CBC may be losing money by selling ads on its music stations even though the broadcaster already had an advertising sales group for its television operations. “They’ll say that it costs them nothing to do it,’’ he said. “But, somebody’s got to get out there and knock on doors and make deals. “That takes a lot of time and, therefore, money.’’ CBC spokeswoman Carole Breton said in an email yesterday that the broadcaster was disappointed by the radio revenues. “We will continue to look for ways of generating more national ad revenues from our music services,’’ she said.

PAN AM GAMES
Two Kamloops products named to Canada’s baseball team Gillies, Kleven rose through KMBA ranks Two Kamloops products will wear the Maple Leaf on the baseball diamond next month at the 2015 Toronto Pan American Games. Outfielder Tyson Gillies and pitcher Colin Kleven, both of whom played minor ball in Kamloops, have been named to the roster of Canada’s baseball team. Kleven is playing A-level ball in the Philadelphia Phillies organization. He’s 4-3 this year with a 3.0 ERA in 12 starts for the Clearwater Threshers of the Florida State League. Gillies, meanwhile, is batting .268 through 33 games for the San Antonio Missions, a double-A affiliate of the San Diego Padres in the Texas League. The speedy centre-fielder from the North Thompson was at one point a top prospect of the Phillies before being signed by San Diego. Canada’s roster is headlined by veteran major-league pitcher and B.C. native Jeff Francis. Currently with the Toronto Blue Jays’ triple-A affiliate in Buffalo, Francis has a career record of 72-82 with a 4.97 earned-run average. He made his major league debut on Aug. 25, 2004, with Colorado and has pitched with Kansas City, Cincinnati, Oakland, the New York Yankees and Toronto. The North Delta product represented Canada at the 2006 World Baseball Classic. Canada’s roster includes eight players from the team that won gold at the 2011 Pan Am

Games in Guadalajara, Mexico: Andrew Albers, Shawn Hill, Brock Kjeldgaard, Kyle Lotzkar, Dustin Molleken, Chris Robinson, Tim Smith and Skyler Stromsmoe. “We are excited about our group for the 2015 Pan Am Games and look forward to representing Canada in front of our own fans,’’ Canada manager Ernie Whitt said in a statement. “It is an honour any time you get to wear the Maple Leaf and, with the Games taking place on home soil, it will truly be special.’’ Other B.C. players on the team are infielder Jesse Hodges of Victoria, infielder Jordan Lennerton of Langley, pitcher Adam Loewen of Surrey, pitcher Kyle Lotzkar of Abbottsford, outfielder Tyler O’Neill of Maple Ridge, and outfielder Rene Tosoni of Port Coquitlam. The baseball schedule at the Games gets underway on July 11, when Canada will play its first game, against the formidable Dominican Republic. The round-robin ends six days later with a Canada-U.S. showdown. The gold-medal game is slated for July 19. — files from the Canadian Press

Sun Devils sweep Burnaby The Kamloops Sun Devils couldn’t have asked for better results than what they earned over the weekend in BC Senior Baseball Association action. The squad, made up of current and former Thompson Rivers University WolfPack baseball players, swept their home series with the visiting Burnaby Bulldogs at Norbrock Stadium. Kamloops won each of the four games — 5-0 and 7-6 on Saturday and 3-1 and 5-2 on Sunday — to move to 12-6 on the season.

Herdman pulls right strings in Canada win NEIL DAVIDSON
THE CANADIAN PRESS
VANCOUVER — Canada is on the move at the Women’s World Cup, headed to the quarter-finals thanks to a 1-0 win over Switzerland and some canny planning from coach John Herdman. And the Canadian women rose to the occasion Sunday after an uneven group stage, taking it to the 19th-ranked Swiss in the second half before 53,855 at BC Place Stadium — a record for a Canadian national team home game. Herdman, a master manipulator, pulled all the right strings Sunday. The winning goal came in the 52nd minute from Josee Belanger, a forward Herdman had convinced to rejoin the national program. And it came from a cross delivered by fullback Rhian Wilkinson, restored to the starting lineup by Herdman after a hamstring injury. Belanger had served as a make-shift fullback in place of the injured Wilkinson and
Canada’s Josee Belanger was mobbed by teammates after notching Canada’s only goal in a 1-0 win over Switzerland at BC Place Stadium on Sunday. With the win, the host team of the FIFA Women’s World Cup earned a spot in Saturday’s quarter-final against either England or Norway. FIFA PHOTO
Marie-Eve Nault in the first three games of the tournament. Captain Christine Sinclair served as a key link-up for the goal, fighting through traffic to get a foot to Wilkinson’s cross and poke it over to Belanger,
who thumped a left-footed shot past Swiss ‘keeper Gaelle Thalmann. It was the turning point of the game, capping an explosive Canadian start to the second half. The first 45 minutes were fairly even but the Swiss had started
to make inroads into the Canadian defence, with the elusive Ramona Bachmann probing the backline. Canadian goalkeeper Erin McLeod said Herdman reminded the players at halftime that there was no going back.
Spieth earns U.S. Open title “
I’m still amazed that I won. . . . I feel for Dustin, but I haven’t been able to put anything in perspective yet.
DOUG FERGUSON
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
UNIVERSITY PLACE, Wash. — Jordan Spieth is halfway home to the Grand Slam, a prize only three of the biggest names in modern golf have ever chased. And, he still can’t believe how he got there. Spieth won the U.S. Open in a heart-stopper Sunday with a turn of events even more wild than the terrain at Chambers Bay. He thought he had it won with a 25-foot birdie putt on the 16th hole. He threw away a three-shot lead one hole later. He made birdie on the final hole. Then he thought it was over as Dustin Johnson settled in over a 12-foot eagle putt for the victory. Three putts later, Spieth was the U.S. Open champion. “I’m still in shock,’’ he said with the gleaming U.S. Open trophy at his side. “I’ve never experienced a feeling like this.’ Spieth became only the sixth player to win the Masters and U.S. Open in the same year, and he joined Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods in getting the first two legs of the modern slam that Palmer created on his way to St. Andrews in 1960. That’s the next stop for the 21-year-old Texan whose two major championships could not

— Jordan Spieth on his dramatic victory at the U.S. Open on Sunday
be any more different. A wire-to-wire runaway at Augusta National. A nail-biter on the edge of Puget Sound. And another major heartache for Johnson. “I had all the chances in the world,’’ said Johnson, who missed six putts inside 10 feet on the back nine and finished one shot behind. Spieth, the youngest U.S. Open champion since Bobby Jones in 1923, did his part. Even after letting Johnson and fastclosing Louis Oosthuizen back into the game with his double bogey on the 17th hole, Spieth responded with a 3-wood that caught the backboard on the 18th hole and settled below the hole for an eagle putt. He missed it left, made birdie and walked off the green feeling more regret than excitement
over his 1-under 69 for a oneshot lead with the big-hitting Johnson behind him. Johnson reached the par-5 18th with a 5-iron — that’s how far he smashed his tee shot on the 601-yard hole. Make the putt and he wins the U.S. Open. Two putts would force an 18-hole playoff Monday on a course that favours power. “I’m still amazed that I won, let alone that we weren’t playing tomorrow,’’ Spieth said. “So for that turnaround right there, to watch that happen, I feel for Dustin, but I haven’t been able to put anything in perspective yet.’’ Spieth now prepares for St. Andrews, the next stop on this improbable ride. Woods in 2002 was the last player to get the first two legs of the slam.
“He just put it pretty simply. He just said, ‘We can’t have any regrets. . . . This second half we’re going for it.’ And everybody did,’’ she said. Canada came at the Swiss in waves to open the second half. And the young
European team seemed to wither under the pressure, although it came back in the final minutes in search of the tying goal. McLeod, as she has done all tournament, made a key save in the 77th minute to deny Vanessa Bernauer from in close. She has kept three clean sheets in four games, conceding just one goal. “I’m really proud of the way the team performed,’’ said McLeod. “I think in the second half especially we played like the Canada I know and that we’re going to show a lot of more at this tournament.’’ Next up for eighthranked Canada is either No. 6 England or No. 11 Norway in Saturday’s quarter-final at BC Place. The two European teams faced off yesterday in Ottawa. Canada will go into the game having finally dispatched a European team at the tournament. Its record against European opposition at the World Cup prior to Sunday was 0-9-1.
CFL RULE CHANGES
New coverage rules likely to add offence DAN RALPH
THE CANADIAN PRESS
Brandon Banks proved last season he’s a master of operating in close quarters. This year, the Hamilton Tiger-Cats special-teams dynamo will have more room to roam. Under new CFL rule changes, the five interior linemen on a punt team must remain on the line of scrimmage until the ball is kicked. The move will drastically limit the number of downfield tacklers shifty returners like Banks will have in their face when they get the ball, giving them roughly another 10 yards of space. Not that Banks needs much room — he averaged 10.3 yards per punt return last season. He took two back for TDs — and had another called back due to a penalty — in Hamilton’s 40-24 East Division final win over Montreal before having an electrifying 90-yard return for a score nullified by a red flag in the Ticats’ heartbreaking 20-16 Grey Cup loss to Calgary. Banks said the rule change suits his style well. “I’m a space type of returner,’’ he said. “I’m going to use the space to my advantage and, hopefully, make guys
miss and put my team in better field position.’’ Jeff Reinebold, Hamilton’s specialteams coach, said the new rule will put a lot of pressure on gunners — the players who line up wide on punts and are usually the first players downfield trying to make the tackle. “Now that the interior guys can’t leave, the gunners are going to have to do a great job,’’ he said. “That’s because there’s going to be some separation between the second level and the first level of your coverage.’’ The return game in Canadian football is key because success results in favourable field position for the offence. Conversely, great coverage can put an offensive unit in a huge hole. Last year there were nine punts, three kickoffs and three missed field goals returned for touchdowns. Special-teams touchdowns can not only give a team momentum but ultimately determine games. Ottawa GM Marcel Desjardins said the new rule gives return teams an advantage. “It will give the returner a good 10 yards of additional space once he catches the ball,’’ he said. “It will have a big impact on what’s going on.’’

Celebration of Life
In Loving Memory Of
MARIA AMANTEA July 28, 1947 - June 17, 2015 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Maria Amantea, beloved mother, nonna, aunt, sister and cousin. Maria passed away on June 17, 2015 with her family by her side in Kamloops, BC at the age of 67. Maria will remain in their hearts and be forever missed by her son Michael (Carolina), her daughter Rosina (Tyler) and her grandsons, Daniel and Nathan Masi. She is also lovingly remembered by her nephew Larry Maio (Barb) and family, sister Gilda Maio and family, Orpha Logan and family and many cousins, nieces and nephews. Maria is predeceased by her husband Maurizio, parents Satorna and Lorenzo Maio, brothers Vincenzo, Antonio and Peppino Maio and nephew Rick Maio. Maria was born July 28, 1947 in Grimaldi, in the Province of Cozenza, Italy. At the age of twelve she travelled with her Mom to Canada by boat and then by train to Kamloops to join her Dad and brothers. Here she met and married the love of her life, Maurizio on September 23, 1964 and together they raised their two children Michael and Rosina. Maria’s greatest passion in life was her family especially her two grandsons. She was always there to pick them up from school, watch their soccer and hockey games and will be forever proud of them. Her kitchen table was always open for coffee, family dinners or just a visit. No one will forget her incredible pasta, sausages, rice balls and peach cookies. She enjoyed fishing in the creek, picking mushrooms, sausage making, baking, holiday dinners and family days at the lake. Maria was an incredible, generous, loving woman who kept three generations of family together. She will live in our hearts forever and not a day will go by that we won’t miss her laughter, smile and love. Prayers will be recited on Thursday, June 25th, 2015 at 7:00 p.m. in Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church. Father Clinton Pendleton will celebrate the Mass of Christian Burial at the Church on Friday, June 26th, 2015 at 11:00 a.m. Entombment will follow at Evergreen Mausoleum, Hillside Cemetery.

Oh Great Spirit ... Oh Great Spirit Whose voice I hear in the wind Whose breath gives life to the world Hear me I come to you as one of your many children I am small and weak I need your strength and your wisdom May I walk in beauty Make my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset Make my hands respect the things that you have made And my ears sharp to hear your voice Make me wise, So that I may know the things you have taught your children The lessons you have hidden in every leaf and rock Make me strong, Not to be superior to my brothers But to be able to fight my greatest enemy — myself Make me ever ready to come to you with straight eyes So that when life fades, as the fading sunset My spirit will come to you without shame.

Buzzing over art at downtown brewery JESSICA WALLACE
STAFF REPORTER

F
or JP Lancaster, a brewery is more than a place to
make beer. When he worked at Phillips Brewing Company a couple of years ago, Red
Collar’s sales and marketing manager helped plan a beer festival and outdoor concerts and saw artists contribute works to be on display at the Victoria brewery. “That just sort of opened my eyes,” Lancaster said. “It’s a pretty integral part of the community.” It’s part of the reason he borrowed the
idea to showcase art at Red Collar. The brewery called for submissions for its first-ever art exhibit with a simple criteria: it had to be themed around hops — because its a brewery — and hounds — because the brand is based around the owners’ black lab, Goosey, who can be found hanging out in
the brewery. Red Collar received more than 30 submissions and staff members — who include an art teacher and a couple of others with fine-arts degrees — narrowed it down to 14. Over beer? “Yeah, of course,” Lancaster said. “That’s how a lot of things get done around here.”
Kamloops Transit
Summer Service Change Effective June 28, 2015 Full service resumes Sept. 6 July 1 Canada Day – Free Service – Extra service leaving downtown at 11:30 pm on 1, 2, 3, 4/5 combo, 7, 9, and 16/17 combo – Additional service on 16 until 9:30 pm – Saturday level service
While he was first worried about what kind of interest there would be in Hops and Hounds, Lancaster was pleasantly surprised. From photography to ink and stained glass works — even his mother-in-law contributed a piece. “People came out of the woodwork,” Lancaster said. The brew pub will be hosting an opening reception for the
exhibit on Thursday at 7 p.m., at which artists will be on hand to socialize and discuss their works. The night will include a beer and food special and Lancaster hopes to convey “local is good and high quality.” If the exhibit is successful, he sees the idea sticking around, perhaps, with up to six exhibits a year. He has the next idea already.
“We talked about maybe repurposing historic beer art,” Lancaster said. For those having a beer at the downtown venue who see a piece they want to take home — the art is for sale, with 100 per cent of the proceeds going to the artist. Hops and Hounds will run for about a month at Red Collar, at 355 Lansdowne St. Admission is free.

Korosi calls it his own television: "Every time I turn my head, it's like changing the — PERCY KOROSI channel." When he's not earning a living as a roofer, Korosi makes his way to the park, sometimes up to five times a week. He has hooking fish down to a science after coming here for the past 25 years. He’s caught steelhead and sockeye salmon and all kinds of trout — rainbow, Dolly Varden and brook, heading up the river channel. He’s even passed his rod to an admiring young boy watching him catch another fish. "It hooks them," he says. He loves seeing the look on their faces. "I've seen the same boy come back the next day with a brand new rod and reel in his hands that his father bought for him." Even tourists stop to watch Korosi fish, their eyes wide with excitement as he lands a fish, which he then releases. Korosi remembers fishing this spot back when the pier was a wooden structure. He remembers, too, learning to fish with his uncle, who raised him. It’s a memory that remains fresh in his mind every time he grabs his rod and tackle box. Bait set. Line in the water. Korosi seats himself down and grabs the remote. Every channel is great viewing.

Ford to share research to accelerate industry KEITH MORGAN
DRIVEWAY CANADA
T
he 2014 Ford C-MAX Hybrid has been named a top safety pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety for the second year. The organization performed multiple crash tests on C-MAX Hybrid, resulting in a “good” rating in side crash, roof strength, restraint and seating evaluations. Ford is opening its portfolio of electrified vehicle technology
patents to competitive automakers to accelerate industry-wide research and development of electrified vehicles. In 2014, Ford filed for 400-plus electrified vehicle patents — more than 20 per cent of the total patents the company applied for last year. “Innovation is our goal,” said Kevin Layden, director, Ford Electrification Programs. “The way to provide the best technology is through constant development and progress. By sharing our research with other
companies, we will accelerate the growth of electrified vehicle technology and deliver even better products to customers.” Ford Motor Company currently offers six hybrid or fully electrified vehicles including Ford Focus Electric, Ford Fusion Hybrid, Ford Fusion Energi plug-in hybrid, Ford C-MAX Hybrid, Ford C-MAX Energi plug-in hybrid and Lincoln MKZ Hybrid. In total, Ford has more than 650 electrified vehicle patents and approximately 1,000 pending patent applications on electrified vehicle technologies. Ford believes sharing its patented technologies will promote faster development of future inventions as all automakers look toward greater opportunities. “As an industry, we need to collaborate while we continue to challenge each other,”

said Layden. “By sharing ideas, companies can solve bigger challenges and help improve
the industry.” As part of Ford’s increased focus on new and innovative technologies, the

Ford is opening its portfolio of electrified vehicle technology patents to automakers.
DETROIT — General Motors is adding more than 243,000 compact hatchbacks in the U.S. and Canada to the growing recall for air bags that can explode with too much force. The company said the expanded recall for passenger air bags covers the Pontiac Vibe from 2003 through 2007. The cars were designed by Toyota and made at jointly owned factory in California. They’re twins of the Toyota Matrix, which was recalled earlier. The Vibe recall comes after Takata Corp. of Japan agreed in
May to double the size of its air bag inflator recall to 33.8 million, making it the largest automotive recall in U.S. history. The propellant in some Takata inflators can burn too quickly, blowing apart a metal canister and sending shrapnel into the passenger compartment. The problem has been blamed for at least seven deaths and more than 100 injuries. Last month, Takata bowed to pressure from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and declared many of its products defective, agreeing to double the number of air bag inflators
being recalled. The giant recall covers driver and passenger air bags in cars and trucks made by 11 automakers. Takata, the automakers and the NHTSA are still trying to determine what causes the inflators to malfunction. Owners can find out if their car is part of the giant recall by going online to vinrcl.safercar. gov/vin/ and keying in their vehicle identification number. The number is stamped on the dashboard near the bottom of the driver’s side windshield. NHTSA says the numbers of all the recalled cars have been entered into its database.
