Trail residents should put on their thinking caps now because there will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity this fall. When ground breaks for the new Columbia River crossing in September, the city will be asking citizens to name that bridge. “It was proposed that it go out to the citizens in a call for names,” explained Communications Coordinator Andrea Jolly to Trail council Monday afternoon. “Mainly because citizens had such an integral part in approving the construction of the bridge.” There are rules to the process besides coming up with a name, however. Hopeful applicants must include the origin of the name, meaning of the name, consider if the name will still mean something in 100 years and describe any historical, cultural or regional significance. “Just to add to that, I did research for other bridge naming processes,” said Jolly. “There were a lot of larger U.S. bridges that published their process online in a call for names.” She said in those See GROUP, Page 3

Hot, dry weather dampens Canada Day fireworks Campfires still allowed under strict conditions BY SHERI REGNIER Times Staff
It's going to be super hot until Sunday which is great news for those looking to catch rays lakeside or in a backyard pool. The news is not great for the Trail tradition of fireworks on Canada Day since the Southeast Fire Centre issued an open burning and incendiary restriction last week. Gyro Park fireworks are cancelled for the July 1 holiday due to a fire ban put on by B.C. Forestry, confirmed Clay Alderson from Kootenay Boundary Regional Fire Thursday morning. The centre re-issued the Category 2 restriction effective Wednesday (June 24) following a mostly dry and hot June. Though the West Kootenay region

varies between a moderate and high fire danger rating, campfires are still allowed under certain parameters. If conditions are favourable, meaning little or no wind, then the fire must be limited to less than a half metre by a half metre. “Site selection is very important,” says Fire Information Officer Fanny Bernard. “If you are in a campground then there are the fire pits. If not, the fire must be well enough away from combustible materials like root systems. It must be on mineral soil with a metre fireguard that is clear from flammable debris such as overhanging branches.” She explained the risk of “holding” fires is up in the region after a series of lightning strikes on June 23. “What happens is lightning can ignite a tree, spark and explode then scatter burning parts of the tree,” said
Bernard, adding with little rain the fire can smoulder for a long period of time with little or no visible smoke. “The long days of sun can spark the fire up again which is a big possibility now, so it's important we reduce human-caused fires to zero so crews can respond to lightning-caused (holding) fires,” she added. Bernard reminds the public that flames can escape quickly so it's crucial to always be in arms reach of the campfire. "I think it's really important for people to know that when they have a campfire, unattended means you are leaving the area for any amount of time," she said. "That means turning in for the night, fishing for a few hours or going on a quick hike. If you are leaving for any amount of time, the fire has to be put out." See RECORDS, Page 3

Saturday book launch chronicles memories of Trail By Guy Bertrand Times Staff
Anyone who has spent time in the Silver City, be it five years or 50 years, has a story to tell about Trail. And that was the genesis behind John D’Arcangelo’s idea to gather as many stories as possible about Trail in a new book A Trail to Remember. D’Arcangelo, a longtime local teacher and avid supporter of the Home of Champions, took on the challenge of compiling stories from a host of people who have made Trail a part of their life. “We did what we set out to do,” said D’Arcangelo. “That was to capture the essence of life in Trail at one time.” He recalled getting a video camera from his dad in the ‘80s. “He suggested I interview Mike Bukna and Jimmy Morris and that got me going on it.” Then add numerous chat sessions at coffee shops and hockey games and D’Arcangelo realized “we need to save these stories.” Getting the stories wasn’t hard. The toughest task was narrowing down the stories. The book was expected to be 250 pages but grew to 350
pages. D’Arcangelo admitted that about 50 stories didn’t make the final cut due to a variety of criteria. A group of three – D’Arcangelo, Jamie Forbes and Sarah Benson – sifted through the stories to come up with the final draft. The stories touch on all
facets of life in Trail – from growing up in the Gulch, working at the smelter, floating down the river or simply walking to school. Of course no book of Trail memories would be complete without several anecdotes related to the city’s sporting history and success.
But what makes the book unique is the personal insights to many iconic parts of Trail be it crafting a mask for Trail Smoke Eater goaltender Seth Martin, being part of basketball success at J.L. Crowe Secondary or traveling with a baseball team to California. There are memories from people synonymous with Trail like Gabana, Vanelli, Nutini, Gattafoni, Benson and Bilesky. And of course there are memories from illustrious Trail athletes like Gerry Moro, Lauren Bay-Regula, Jocelyn DeRosa, Theresa Lenardon and the thoughts of a host of famous Trail Smoke Eaters. The stories aren’t limited to Trail, there are memories of skiing at Red Mountain or fun days in Warfield. “It was a great community project,” said D’Arcangelo. “It really took people back to happier times.” A Trail to Remember will be available to the public a the official book launch on Saturday at 12:30 p.m. at the Piazza Colombo. Copies may be purchased at the book launch, through Trail City Archives, at the Trail Historical Spociety website or local retailers while supplies last.

Fruitvale man says ‘instincts kicked in’ at Bombi crash By Tamara Hynd Nelson Star

The Sicilian Jazz Project will be performing in a special Music in the Park edition on June 30 in Gyro Park.
Sicilian Jazz Project to perform June 30 Submitted TRAIL – The Sicilian Jazz Project, with guests Italian vocalist Pilar and clarinetist Don Byron, is coming to Trail on June 30. The quintet will perform at Kootenay Savings Music in the Park as part of a Canadian tour supported by the Canada Council for the Arts which includes a stop at the Vancouver Jazz Festival. The group’s new album features a unique blend of chamber music, work songs, improvisation and poetic songs of the old and new worlds. Artfully arranged by group leader Michael Occhipinti, a Toronto-based guitarist who is also the director of the Markham Jazz Festival. Using Sicilian folk music, the group takes the audience on a journey that reveals the drama and passion of Sicily’s past and showcases the global sound and great musicianship of modern day Toronto. The Sicilian Jazz Project has been called a masterpiece of cultural fusion and received
a 2009 JUNO Award nomination. The recording also resulted in the prestigious Ragusani nel Mondo Award being presented to Michael and Roberto Occhipinti in Ragusa, Sicily in 2009, and in 2010 Michael Occhipinti received a Chalmers Fellowship to live in Sicily and explore the folk culture there further and gather material for the group’s upcoming follow-up to its acclaimed debut album. The Sicilian Jazz Festival has brought its captivating and infectious live show to music festivals across Canada, Italy, the U.S., and Mexico, including performances at the Festival Cultural de Zacatecas (Mexico), The Rochester Jazz Festival (Rochester,N.Y.), and Toronto’s beautiful Koerner Hall. Mixing a unique repertoire, great story-telling, and some of Canada’s best jazz, world, and chamber musicians, the band is not to be missed live. The concert will be held at Trail’s Gyro Park on Tuesday, June 30, starting at 7 p.m. Bring a lawn chair. Admission is by donation.
Group will review name submissions FROM PAGE 1 instances, up to 10,000 names were submitted, which a selected committee would narrow down to the top-three or top-10 then put those choices back for a public vote. “Those are options that can be decided later down the line,” she said, referring to her recommendation that a committee of community representatives be formed to make the final name decision. “But it is proposed that the public does contribute to the naming process.” Council unanimously agreed with Jolly’s recommen-
dation, with Trail Mayor Mike Martin seeking clarification on the timeline to form a group responsible for reviewing all submitted names. “The reason is to wait and see what sort of responses we get then put that down so council is aware of what information has come in and based on those responses, what sort of committee will be required,” said David Perehudoff, Trail’s chief administrative officer. “Before we start prejudging the type of committee let’s see if we get one, two or one thousand responses.” Once the call for names is
officially released around the second week of September, the deadline for submissions will be six weeks. At that time, Trail council will determine how many political seats and how many non-political seats will play a role in the ultimate naming decision. “It’s proposed to have this all wrapped up before the substantial completion of construction at the end of May 2016,” said Jolly. “We would have it done well ahead so we can have the plaque and (name) recognition at the opening ceremony.”

Salmo RCMP say the fast action of two people helped save a man’s life on Highway 3 near the Bombi summit. Fruitvale’s David Hildahl was driving with his family on Saturday evening when he saw a vehicle sliding upside down coming to a stop. Hildahl and his daughter’s boyfriend Brandon Hawthorn got out to help while Hildahl’s wife drove down the hill to call 911. “It was pretty intense,” said Hildahl. “Instincts kicked it.” They pried open a jammed door to find a man wedged down and pinned by his seat belt. “Gasoline was dripping into the vehicle,” he said. “The first concern was getting him out, then deal with his injuries.” Hildahl raced up the road yelling for a knife as other vehicles came to a stop. By chance his cousin Brett Molnar had a knife. They quickly cut him out and with more people
helping, they moved the man to the roadside. Hildahl estimated it was mere moments later that the vehicle became a “fire ball”. The man’s arm was bleeding heavily so Hawthorn used his shirt to slow the blood flow. A woman, who turned out to be a nurse, then used a belt as a tourniquet to stop the bleeding. Hildahl said he has been previously certified with Occupational First Aid level 3 as well as trained in mine rescue. He added he does not recommend that anyone attempt to do what he did without some sort of risk and emergency response training In a written statement, RCMP said the driver may have been having diabetic issues and paramedics tended to him at the scene and brought him to hospital. Hildahl was happily surprised to see the man walking in Trail on Wednesday. “I couldn’t believe it. I told him, ‘It’s incredible to see you walking around’.”
Records could fall this weekend
FROM PAGE 1 Ashes have to be cool to the touch, which means at least eight litres of water need to be on hand along with a hand tool such as a shovel, to stir the cinders and ensure water soaks deep enough to completely extinguish the fire. “People are surprised how quickly a fire can spark and how quickly the wind can carry it to combustible material,” said Bernard. “That’s why site selection is important and also, if it’s windy enough to carry embers or sparks, then it’s not a good day for a campfire.” She encourages anyone who sees smoke to report it, and don’t assume someone else has called. The ongoing hot and mostly dry weather pattern is unseasonable for June, says Jesse Ellis, the centre’s forecaster. Usual temperatures are a high of 25 C, he explained, adding many days of the month hit ranges from the low to mid 30’s C setting new daily maximums. “By the way it’s already 25 right now,” he told the Trail Times early Thursday morning referring to additional daily record temperatures expected until Saturday. The all-time high for the month is 37.9 C and with a continuing upper ridge of high pressure build-

ing from the southwestern United States, chances are the record could be broken over the weekend. “That’s what we are shooting to beat,” said Ellis. “And I think we will.” The hot and less humid trend should end Sunday when moisture from the south is forecast to bring clouds and thunderstorms by the evening. With extreme temperatures expected to beat down Greater Trail this weekend, Interior Health reminds the public how to prevent heat-related illness. • Planning outdoor activities before 11 a.m. or after 4 p.m. reduces exposure to the sun’s Ultra Violet Radiation and to avoid sunburn use sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher, wear a brimmed hat or use an umbrella for shade. • Drink plenty of fluids, especially water, however those on water pills should check with their healthcare provider. • Signs of heat-related illness include pale, cool or moist skin, muscle cramps, fatigue, nausea and/or vomiting, confusion and dizziness. – Regnier

Quebec man headed to Okanagan with horse-drawn wagon By Katelyn Dingman Fernie Free Press
Leaving his life and both his literal and figurative bag-
gage behind, Pierre Cloutier is travelling from Montréal to the Okanagan on a horse and buggy.
On June 17 Cloutier passed through Fernie and shared tales of his trek with locals. “It started as a kids
Everett E. Schultz If the words good-bye have entered your thoughts, pause. Consider: Everett Earl Schultz, you probably knew him as “Ev”. Ev’s brave and courageous journey with cancer ended June 17, 2015, two and half months after his 63rd birthday. Despite having never finished high school Everett was a brilliant man with a genius mind, a self-taught master craftsman of anything wood, metal, paint or engine, and a world-class husband, father and friend. The king of DIY (do it yourself ), if he had an idea, he could build it. If something was broken, he could fix it. Seriously, there was nothing Everett couldn’t mend! Generous, kind and loving, if you were good to him, he was ten times better to you and as much as he loved making things, what he loved more was making people smile. “If I can get one person to laugh or smile,” he’d say, “then it’s a good day.” And oh how he loved to talk and tell stories. Even in his passing Everett is still talking and telling stories. Found on his computer (the DIY’er at it again) a file called Last Words: I, Everett Schultz, have walked this earth for 62 years. And I know I’m not going to beat this thing called Cancer. Before I become a ghost of a memory I would like to say it has been a hell of a ride. I’m so happy I was born before technology. I grew up in Cochrane, Alberta. As kids you got outside & play & we played! Good childhood. Guns, kick the can, hide & go seek, football, baseball, climbed a mountain. How many times climbed Cochrane Hill & had lunch with the Monks, down at the river on rafts, fishing & picking berries, exploring the three ravines, built forts along the river, had sword fights, tied a rope to a branch & made a tree swing. Learned to swim in the river. Learned & rode horses, rode our bicycles 22 miles just to get firecrackers. Collected bottles. 25 cents was big money & what you could buy: bottle of pop, bag of chips & a nickel ice cream. Nickel chocolate bar or 10 cents for a lb. of grapes & penny candy. Oh Ya, spear grass fights can’t forget that. Building carts. Many a trip up the big hill to the dump, finding wheels & parts. Now it is time to have a motor. Oh Ya Go carts! Man we were crazy. We all should not be here for what we did on them, coming down the old Cochrane Hill Road with what we had for brakes; two sticks, one on each side. Hell we invented drifting slalom style. Yes we got our whoopings & chores to do & with 5 boys in the house you couldn’t even find a pair of socks that matched. Broken tied up shoelaces, wire where the stitching was holding them together and a piece of cardboard inside to cover the hole
in the bottom. Hand-me-down clothes. Kids today have no idea what fun is & I’m very sorry for that. You have to grow up in a small town, not in the big city. I did not become the man I wanted to be, for we are all young at one time with big ideas. Commercial artist was what I wanted to be. But young & stupid, I met a girl. Marriage did not work. But I had 2 very young kids to look after: 2 kids, 1 dog, and 1 bird. I looked after them the best that I could 5-1/2 years a single parent. I will let you think about that for a min. I would not have changed a thing. Ketrena & Ched are my kids & I know I made the right choice. We had fun growing up together. We sure did many things together: camping, fishing, skating, holidays, blowing, movies, picnics, drives, motorcycling, oh & so much more. They made me a better man. Stronger. Dolly. Dolly, you are the best thing that ever happened to me. I LOVE YOU. Dolly: I wish I’d have met you sooner in my life. Dolly & I have been together forever it seems. We have a relationship that most people do not have. Magic. Trust. Maybe there are no words that can say it. Dolly has been so good for me. I love her more than anything she has been my backbone. All I ever wished for is to be here for her in her time of need, when she is going to need my help in the coming years to be there for you & by your side. The Memories: we have made the time we have been together our best. On regrets: I have had a full life. My Love goes out to my Wife Dolly, Ketrena, Ched, Steve & Aaron, My Family. I love you all & I mean you all. Every Day Is A Second Chance. Good-bye was not a part of Everett’s vocabulary and no one was permitted to say those words in his presence. “Never say good-bye.” He’d correct, “Goodbye is forever.” So this is not good-bye but “chow” (that’s how he’d spell it) for now. Ev’s vibrant and lively spirit continues to shines on through his wife Dolly; daughter Ketrena; son Chedwick “Butchie” (wife Cori, children, Aidan and Velvet); stepsons Steve and Aaron; siblings, Carson, Ricky, Charlie and Tony, many nieces, nephews, friends and family too numerous to list but not forgotten. Ev is reunited with his brother Jim and parents Eric and Dorcas where they are likely paired up in a game of crib. Everett’s family would like to express their sincere thanks and appreciation to all the doctor’s nurses and support staff that cared for Ev though his long difficult journey especially in his final days. And to our friends and community we thank you deeply for your compassion and ongoing support. We invite you to join us in a celebration of Ev’s life Friday July 3, 2015 2:00pm at Marsh Creek Campground Beaver Valley Family Park, Fruitvale, BC., where we’ll enjoy a day of memories, music, and fun family picnic style.
dream,” he explained. “I had my first horse at 12 years old and I always dreamed of travelling.” After having his heart broken by a former lover last year, Cloutier auctioned off his possessions, sold his home and set off for the Okanagan. “I was tired and working too much so I decided to have an auction, sell everything and hit the road,” he said of his journey, adding that he has previously worked as both a truck driver and an auctioneer. But with four horses travelling between 24-32 km per day, Cloutier’s journey to the Okanagan has been quite a long trek. In fact, he has already been on the road for eight months now, with another two to three months to go before he settles in the Okanagan. For Cloutier, however, the journey is a major part of his

He spends five nights a week sleeping in his carriage and spends the other two days relying on the kindness of others for food (for both himself and his horses), shelter and amenities, like hot water for showering Cloutier said that thus far on his journey, this kindness hasn’t been hard to

With a notebook on hand, Cloutier encourages his fans to write down their own words of wisdom. He relates his experience to what pioneers did 200 years ago, adding, “That’s what I’m looking for; a new goal, a new life.” “I live a dream life now. I don’t want to work the rest of my life, I just want to dream,” he added.

National Month jail for ‘lying’ ex-Harper pointman; Del Mastro can’t run for five years THE CANADIAN PRESS PETERBOROUGH, Ont. - A former member of Parliament who spoke for Prime Minister Stephen Harper when it came to electoral-fraud allegations was sentenced Thursday to one month in jail and barred from running for office for five years for “cheating” during an election campaign. Dean Del Mastro deliberately broke spending rules then tried to cover up his crime, said Superior Court Justice Lisa Cameron, who ruled that incarceration was appropriate for the first-time offender. “He was prepared not only to break the rules but to be deceitful about it,” Cameron said. “This type of cheating and lying will result in serious sanctions.” Cameron convicted the former Conservative MP for Peterborough last fall of violating the Canada Elections Act during the 2008 federal election. She found he had know-
OTTAWA - Some convictions involving current or former federal parliamentarians: Dean Del Mastro: Former Conservative MP was sentenced Thursday to one month in jail after being convicted of violating Canada Elections Act during 2008 federal ballot. Del Mastro also received four-month conditional sentence, which will be served under house arrest, and a further 18 months of probation. Manon Perreault: In March, former New Democrat MP was found guilty of mischief after falsely accusing a one-time staffer of theft. Joe Fontana: Mayor of London, Ont., and former Liberal cabinet minister was convicted last year of fraud, forgery and breach of trust by public official. He was sentenced to four months of house arrest and 18 months of probation. Raymond Lavigne: Liberal senator was convicted of fraud over $5,000 and breach of trust in 2011 over false travel expense claims and having office staff work on his personal farm. He was sentenced to six months in jail and another six under house arrest. Michel Cogger: Progressive Conservative senator was convicted in 1998 of influencepeddling for lobbying the government on behalf of a client. He was fined $3,000, put on probation and ordered to do community service, but was later given an absolute discharge - meaning a finding of guilt but no registered conviction. ingly exceeded spending limits, failed to report a personal contribution of $21,000 to his campaign, and submitted a falsified document.
The offences were the very “antithesis” of democracy and an “affront” to the principles of Canada’s democratic system, Cameron said.
“Custody is required to reflect the need for denunciation and deterrence.” Cameron refused a defence request to allow him to serve his jail time intermittently. In addition to two one-month jail terms he will have to serve concurrently for the overspending, Cameron also imposed four months of house arrest, to start after he is released, for the false return he filed. He will also have to pay $10,000 to the Peterborough Electoral District Association, and will be on probation for 18 months. Del Mastro, 44, has already filed an appeal of the conviction and was to apply for bail at a hearing Friday. He was led away after the sentencing for processing before being taken to a jail in nearby Lindsay. His wife was in tears. Accountant Richard McCarthy, 68, who was Del Mastro’s agent, was given a two-month conditional sentence plus one
year of probation for his role. Cameron said McCarthy had acquiesced to the machinations - or at least was “wilfully blind” to them - but was much less culpable. Once Harper’s point man defending the Tories against allegations of electoral fraud, Del Mastro has maintained his innocence and once called the verdict the judge’s opinion. Going into the day’s proceedings, he said he was not worried by the prospect of a jail term. In Ottawa, the Opposition New Democrats called Del Mastro the man Harper “handpicked” to be his party’s spokesman on ethics and noted other Tories have also been convicted for electoral fraud. “Conservatives have now been convicted of cheating in every election they won,” the NDP said in a statement. Michael Sona, a former Conservative staffer, was convicted last year in the 2011 robocalls scandal. The Conservative
Influx of U.S. buyers in Canada’s recreational property markets
THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO - Real estate agent Priscilla Sookarow rang in the new year in a novel way, brokering the sale of a $3-million vacation property in B.C.’s Okanagan Valley to a family from Texas. In addition to the region’s natural beauty, the buyers were lured by the low value of the loonie relative to the U.S. dollar, said Sookarow who, along with realtors elsewhere, says an increasing number of vacation property buyers are coming from south of the border. “When you buy a $3-million property with U.S. dollars you’re saving a fair bit,” said
Sookarow, an agent with ReMax Vernon. Sookarow isn’t the only agent in the recreational property market to report an influx of U.S. clients. Realtors in B.C.’s Gulf Islands and Ontario’s Muskoka and Niagara regions say they are also observing the trend. “In all of my offices we’re seeing more U.S. inquiries,” said John Jarvis, a ReMax agent in Ontario’s Muskoka region. “Americans are definitely shopping

Bright ideas can dim overbearing streetlights
I
’ll never forget talking to an exchange student that was living in Rossland last year, who was gushing with excitement about his experience here – so different from what he was used to back home. But it wasn’t the bears and the snow he was talking about, it was the stars. In many big cities people live and work and go about their lives never seeing the stars, which are obliterated by the spilled light from thousands of streetlights and buildings. Even here in the relative dark of the Kootenays we need to get outside of town to really see them in their full glory. Too many of our streetlights are not focused on lighting up the street below them, but stream light up and out as well. I know – in my last house the closest streetlight shone straight into my second-storey bedroom window. One smart
neighbour apparently blacked out the part of the local light that did the same to his house. This is more than an inconvenience; it is a waste. It’s wasted money, for one thing; the City of Calgary estimates it saved $1.7 million per year after it changed out its oldstyle streetlights 10 years ago to ones that used less energy and actually lit the streets instead of the sky. That wasted energy is also bad for the environment. Obviously that’s more of a factor in coalburning Alberta than here in B.C. where our electricity is fairly clean, but it’s an issue here as well. In Rossland we spend roughly $70,000 per year on lighting up the streets – a big chunk of cash. Is there any way we could reduce that burden on taxpayers, and reduce the environmental impact at the same time? For starters, a huge
AARON
COSBEY
Community Comment part of that money is spent lighting up streets that nobody is using, since the lights are on all night. That’s a realization that’s starting to hit home for cash-strapped municipalities everywhere. In Britain, over half a million streetlights (10% of the total) are shut off or dimmed at night – an eight-fold increase over five years ago. For another thing, the new energy-efficient LED streetlights use roughly half the energy used by the current high-pressure
sodium lights. Electricity costs being high and going nowhere but up, that’s significant. LED lights also last or three times longer, meaning cost savings down the line on replacement. And they cost not much more to buy and install. The new streetlights also don’t need to be as bright, since flat lens technology actually focuses the light on the street itself (why did we ever do otherwise?), again meaning less energy used. Finally, we may not need all the lights we’ve got. The Illuminating Engineering Society of North America has criteria for how much light is needed in what circumstances (obviously the amount differs depending on the location and use). Cities across North America are using those criteria to take out existing lights and reduce streetlight density in new
developments. With all of our municipalities looking for ways to reduce spending, and also mindful of our environmental impact, I predict it won’t be long before this low-hanging fruit is picked, and the beauty of our urban night skies will be even more impressive than it already is. And nobody will have to block out the wasted light streaming in their bedroom windows!

ground for the wealthy. Last Friday, I chatted by phone with Nelson-Creston MLA Michelle Mungall who, obviously, is thrilled at the decision. Yes, she said, the government could reinvent a process to put the project back on the rails or investors could simply restart the process from square one. But she rightly pointed out that environmental standards have improved significantly since the original application — it was a 10-year certificate that Polak has now deemed to have expired — and, as importantly, the legal expectation that First Nations people have a much larger say in these things has taken a much stronger foothold. Courts are simply not allowing development plans to run roughshod as they once did. Mungall was clearly emotional as she spoke of groups and individuals who have worked with such passion and dedication to protect the wilderness that some would happily exploit. One man, she said, has made the drive to Jumbo every day to monitor and report on the activity as developers scrambled to do enough construction to avoid the decision that Polak made. Good on him, and good on them all, I say. And good on Premier Clark if she finally sees the light on this issue and dismantles the faux municipality and announces that no further development proposals will be entertained. Wouldn’t that be a step forward? Lorne Eckersley is the publisher of the Creston Valley Advance.
Can the government be trusted? An editorial from the St. John’s Telegram As soon as you draw a comparison to Hitler, you lose the argument. That’s the conventional wisdom. Up until that point, however, Federal Court judge Luc Martineau was making a pretty sly point. The occasion was a hearing in Montreal Monday as to whether the federal government should be required to hand over a hard drive of Quebec gun registry data to the court. The request was made by lawyers for information commissioner Suzanne Legault, who launched a court battle Tuesday over legislation that would pardon government agencies who may have prematurely destroyed gun registry data before court cases were resolved. It all sounds a little tangly, but the question is this: can the government be trusted to secure the data until court pro-
ceedings have been exhausted? Judging from their past record, the answer is no. So on Monday, Martineau ordered Public Safety Minister Steven Blaney and the RCMP commissioner to hand over the goods — which they did the next morning. The message is pretty extraordinary. Martineau agreed that the Harper government can’t be trusted. And he wasn’t just playing politics. “Lawyer Richard Dearden, representing Legault, presented affidavits, letters and email evidence showing that previous assurances from the Conservative government in 2012 were ignored as it pushed for the speedy destruction of all gun registry records outside the province of Quebec,” the Montreal Gazette reported. Legault issued a report earlier this year accusing the RCMP of breaking the Access to Information Act by destroying registry data that was still in
dispute before the courts. In return, the Conservatives rewrote the law, giving retroactive immunity to anyone who participated in the destruction of documents. That law, part of the omnibus budget bill, has already passed its final Senate vote. It’s an astounding precedent: if someone breaks the law doing our bidding, we’ll just change the law so that they can’t be charged. Suppose U.S. President Richard Nixon changed the law so the Watergate burglars couldn’t be charged? Suppose then prime minister Jean Chrétien changed the law so that the Sponsorship swindlers could get off scotfree? Or suppose, as Martineau posited in court, we retroactively absolved Nazis of war crimes and backdated the law to 1940? A little over the top, but that doesn’t diminish the main point.

How God blesses the world through Abraham Scripture quotations are from the RSV unless otherwise noted. “I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed” (Gen. 12:3 NKJV). This is God’s call to Abraham, to leave Haran and go to Canaan, and God promises him that he will be a great nation and that God will bless all the families of the earth in him. That is, through Abraham all the peoples of the world will be blessed. And this is exactly what happened, for Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world, was a descendent of Abraham. Jesus Christ died on the cross to be the propitiation for all the sins of the world (Rom. 3:25; 1 John 2:2). His death made just and adequate reparation for all the sins of the world so that they could be justly forgiven, for only in this way could an all-just God forgive sins. To be justified God asks only one thing of us, faith in Jesus Christ, that is, that we accept him as our Savior and that we repent and confess our sins. Then the merits of his death on the cross are applied to us, and God justly forgives us, for our just sentence for our sins has already been served for us by Christ. Every person that is saved is saved by the merits of Christ on the cross, through his faith in Christ. Christ sent his apostles out as missionaries into the entire world because he wants everyone to have the opportunity to believe in him, and in him crucified (1 Cor. 2:2), for their eternal salvation. God wants all the peoples of the world to be saved in this way, namely through faith in Jesus of Nazareth, crucified and risen, and that they be baptized in his name. Even those who have never heard of Christ, if they are saved, they are saved only through his death on the cross that made just reparation for their sins. And God can bring them, in

a way known to him alone, to sufficient faith in Jesus Christ and his Paschal Mystery to be saved. So it is true that all the families of the earth are blessed in Abraham, that is, in his descendent Jesus Christ, as St. Paul tells us: “The scriptures, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, ‘in you shall all the nations be blessed’” (Gal. 3:8; Gen. 12:3). Abraham himself was justified by his faith, not by his good works, for when God promised him many descendents, “he believed the Lord; and he reckoned it to him as righteousness” (Gen. 15:6). Because Abraham believed, God justified him through his faith. Through his faith he was justified by God, because of the merits of Christ’s death on the cross, by way of anticipation. So it is, “for what does the Scripture say? ‘Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness’ ... To him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness” (Rom. 4:3, 5 NKJV). This is true of us too. We believe in Christ, and our faith is counted as righteousness. That is, we are justified through our faith, not through our works, by grace, because of the work of Christ on the cross. Our faith enables the merits of Christ’s work on the cross to be applied to us to justify us. Then, once we are justified by faith, not by works, our faith produces good works in love, as St. Paul says, “faith working through love” (Gal. 5:6). It is not our works of love that justify us, but rather our faith justifies us without works, and then after our faith has justified us, then our faith produces good works in love that show that we have been justified. It is our mission to preach this basic gospel message to all the peoples of the world for their eternal salvation, namely that God has sent us a Savior who justifies us by his death on the cross, through our faith in him, that then does good works in love. © Copyright 2007-2009 Rev.

Local churches, environmentalists welcome Pope’s call to climate action
Submitted NELSON – The West Kootenay EcoSociety and West Kootenay churches, including Nelson’s Cathedral of Mary Immaculate, Development & Peace Committee, the Rossland Sacred Heart Parish, Development & Peace Committee, the Castlegar United Church, and Communities in Faith Pastoral Charge, that includes the Trail United Church, Rossland’s St. Andrew’s United Church, BeaverValley United Church and the Salmo Community Church, welcome the release of the Pope’s teaching letter, the encyclical, Praise be to you: on the care of the common home, which calls on humanity to take climate action. The encyclical, released today, addresses the economy, the environment and equity issues. It asks humanity to care for creation; the planet and the people are to be seen as one common good and not separate from each other. “Taking climate action is a moral issue. We need to care for our home, the earth, and all those people in it,” said Barry Nelson, the local chairperson of the Canadian Catholic Organization for Development & Peace, a social movement established by the Canadian Catholic Bishops in 1967. “Our organization supports partners in the Global South working on issues of justice, of which climate change is seen as the single greatest threat to poverty reduction. Everyone in the global village is affected by climate change, but it is the poor who are and will continue to pay the biggest price.” “The Catholic parishes in Rossland, Trail and Fruitvale will be working along with others in the Nelson Diocese to help people to understand and support the changes that the Holy Father is trying to inspire. It will be good to have such solid direction and support from Pope Francis as we work on our upcoming fall education and action program for parishioners to ‘create a climate of change,” said Mike Bourchier of the Development & Peace Committee at the Catholic Sacred Heart Parish in Rossland. “The Pope’s encyclical reminds us that we are stewards of the gifts that God has given us in the created order. As a consequence our actions regarding creation have moral implications, especially with regards as to the effect that environmental degradation has and is having on the world’s poorest people,” said Rev. Michael Hare, Communities in Faith Pastoral Charge Minister. Faith communities in the West Kootenays will celebrate and internalize the encyclical throughout this year. Plans include joining the global day of song and celebration on June 28, church discussion groups on climate change and faith, and coming together around key Canadian and international climate moments. “Faith communities in the area are making bold statements about the need to act for climate justice. We look forward to working with them more closely as folks in the West Kootenays mobilize around climate concerns,” said Montana Burgess, Community Organizer with the West Kootenay EcoSociety. Although this is not the first time the Roman Catholic Church has addressed climate justice, the timing of the encyclical is poised to influence a key political year for addressing global climate justice. The encyclical coincides with unprecedented numbers of citizens calling for climate action and the Canadian federal government’s refusal to act in time to avoid climate chaos. “This encyclical is very timely, as this year the United Nations seeks to reach agreement on the Sustainable Development Goals, where currently climate change is a stand-alone goal, but See POPE, Page 9

Pope trying to help make ‘real progress’ disturbed by the lack of leadership at many levels. “If the vast majority of the world’s climate scientists are right, humanity could face some dire consequences— including much human suffering—as a result of our past actions. “But there is still time to transition to an economy that is fairer for more people and that protects the sacredness of Creation.

Mad trapper archery shoot

Over 60 archers participated in the Mad Trapper Archery Shoot at Secret Creek Ranch on the weekend, and many more joined the shooters for a great evening barbecue afterwards. The course boasted a variety of 3-D targets and shots from various perches, attracting young archers like Emily Koyanagi, as it wound through the 18 acres of open meadow, alpine forest, and scenic views. The event raised funds for the Trail chapter of the Special Olympics B.C.

Price sweeps awards, named MVP
By Kolby Solinsky BC Local News
Carey Price cleaned up at Wednesday night’s NHL Awards in Las Vegas, taking home the William M. Jennings Trophy for the league’s fewest goals against with Chicago Blackhawks goalie Corey Crawford, the league’s playervoted MVP, its best goalie, and finally capping the night off with the Hart Trophy as the NHL’s most valuable player for 2015.
Price, who was born in Vancouver and raised in Anahim Lake, B.C., became the first goalie to win the Hart since Jose Theodore did it, also with the Montreal Canadiens, in 2002. The Habs finished second in the Eastern Conference and Price led the NHL with a 1.96 goals-against average and a 0.933 save percentage. He also led the NHL with 44 wins, just ahead of fellow Vezina nominee Pekka Rinne’s
41. “Obviously, I couldn’t have done this without my teammates,” Price said after winning the Vezina, his second time on the podium Wednesday night, as the NHL’s best goaltender. Price’s story is wellknown: faced with a 10-hour round trip commute from Anahim Lake to his home rink in Williams Lake, Price’s father Jerry bought a plane to aid in his son’s love for hockey.
Price played his junior hockey with the WHL’s Tri-City Americans and was drafted fifth overall by the Canadiens in 2005, eventually winning gold with Canada’s World Junior team in 2007 and Olympic gold in Sochi, in 2014. Price is of both Ulkatcho and Nuxalk descent, and represented his heritage upon accepting the Vezina: “I would like to take
a moment to encourage First Nations youth. A lot of people would say it’s very improbable that I would make it to this point in my life, and I made it here because I wasn’t discouraged. I worked hard to get here, took advantage of every opportunity that I had, and I’d really like to encourage First Nations youth to be leaders in their communities. “Be proud of your heritage, and don’t be discouraged.”

AA Orioles in action at Butler By Times Staff The Trail AA Orioles and AM Ford Senior Orioles are in action this weekend. The AA O’s will host Colville today at Butler Park at 2 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. After coming off a pair of convincing 10-0 wins over Lewis and Clark on the weekend the AA Orioles will likely face a stiffer test in the 2-1-1 Colville team. They will be in action again on Tuesday and the competition won’t get any easier, as
the Orioles will host the 6-1-1 Gonzaga Prep 2 Blues at Butler Park with games going at 1 and 3:30 p.m. The unbeaten 2-0 AA Orioles currently stand atop the National AA division of the Washington State American Legion baseball league.
AM Ford Orioles Meanwhile the AM Ford Orioles will be in Kelowa for the Blast Tournament looking to take home some cool, hard
cash. Twelve teams will compete for $10,000 worth of prize money at Elks and Boucherie Stadiums in Kelowna. The Orioles will play in a pool with the Coquitlam Angels, Calgary Diamondbacks, and the Okanagan Athletics, a highschool baseball team that plays in the B.C. Premier Baseball League. The host Kelowna Jays play in a pool with the Snoqhalmie Hurricanes, Prince George Grays, and Parkland White Sox from
Edmonton. The BC champion Kamloops Sun Devils will face the Burnaby Bulldogs, VIBI Muckers from Nanaimo, and Seattle’s Highline Bears. The Orioles play back-toback matches against the Athletics at noon today, then the Diamondbacks at 2:30 p.m. at Boucherie Stadium. They finish the round robin Saturday at 8 a.m. against Coquitlam. The playoff round for the top six teams begins Saturday night at 6 p.m.

Schedule set for Showcase
submitted The BCHL released the matchups for the fourth Bauer BCHL Showcase on Sept. 24 to 27 at Prospera Centre in Chilliwack. The Trail Smoke Eaters will open their BCHL season on Sept. 26 against the Prince George Spruce Kings, followed up with a game against newcomer Wenatchee Wild at 4 p.m. on Sunday. The Showcase host Chilliwack Chiefs play feature games on Friday and Saturday night, both 7:30 p.m. starts. The defending league champion Penticton Vees play at 4 p.m. on Thursday and then face the Chiefs Friday night. The secondary rink at Prospera Centre, which was not supposed to be used this year, becomes necessary for one game as the Wenatchee Wild have joined the BCHL. The Wild will play the Vernon Vipers on the secondary sheet of ice on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. About 200 scouts from the college and professional ranks are expected to attend this year’s Showcase. Over the last three seasons, since the Showcase began, the BCHL has averaged 137 players with college commitments and this past season, there were 247 BCHL graduates playing NCAA Div. I hockey. There have also been 12 BCHL players selected in the two NHL Entry Drafts since the first Showcase was held. There are five current BCHL players listed by NHL Central Scouting leading into today’s Draft.

Plant Operator Program provides industry options Submitted NELSON – Selkirk College is opening doors to multi-industry opportunities by offering an additional intake for the popular Plant Operator Program. Based out of Nelson’s Silver King Campus, the 24-week Plant Operator Program prepares students for entry level positions in a multitude of areas like oil
& gas, refineries, pulp mills, forestry, mining, health care, educational facilities, manufacturing and recreation. With a six-week practicum built into the program, students gain knowledge and develop the skills required to operate, monitor and troubleshoot modern industrial plants. “The complex equipment that make things work together as one is the exciting
part about this program,” says Selkirk College Plant Operator Program Instructor Bruce McMaster. “You need a strong mechanical aptitude to be able to operate these pieces of equipment and problem solving is a big part of being a plant operator. It’s a field that has endless opportunities for those with the training we provide.” McMaster has

been teaching at the Silver King Campus for more than a decade. A Selkirk College alumnus, he is a journeyperson electrician, fourth class power engineer and HVAC (heating, ventilating and air conditioning) technician who spent a decade installing and programming HVAC automation equipment in schools, hospitals and government office buildings around the region. McMaster arrived at Selkirk College to teach the Process Operator Program in 2004 and has held several instructor positions in the trades over the last 10 years. Selkirk College has the only replica plant of its kind in Western Canada. Built by Teck Cominco in the 1980s, it is modeled after a sand batching plant and allows students to get hands-on training right on campus. Over the years the replica plant has been used by Millwright/ Machinist Program and Electrical Program students, but five years ago McMaster created the Plant Operator Program which has morphed the unit into modern training equipment. “It’s unique because it has real-life, handson mechanical equip-

The provincial government has bolstered funding in areas of trades that are anticipated to be in-demand over the coming years. Plant operators are considered one of those areas, so a third intake has been added and starts this August. This

intake will focus more on hospitals, school districts, municipalities, sawmills, recreational facilities and other large plant operations. In this round there will be potential practicums across the Kootenay. “Local industry involvement makes the program what it is,” says McMaster. “Without them and their plants, it would be impossible to connect so many learning objectives with the real world.” During the 18 weeks of instructional time, students travel to 10 plant operations of various sizes throughout the West Kootenay including Nelson
Hydro, Teck, Zellstoff Celgar, Columbia Brewery, Selkirk College, Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital (Trail) and the Nelson & District Community Complex. The goal is by the end of the tours, students will have a detailed record of the plants they have visited and a broad awareness of the operator duties and tasks at the various plants in our area. Classes for the next Plant Operator Program start on August 4. For more information on the program or registration call 250.354.3221 or go online to selkirk.ca/ plant-operator.

You would think a great many residents would have either spent time in the service or know someone who has. It is so difficult for me to drive through the streets and see only a few homes with flags out on Memorial Day or Flag Day. You can buy flags at the dollar store, for heaven’s sake. When I think of all the young women and men who have sacrificed so much for our country, it is hard to understand. I hope people get this message, and when July Fourth comes around, we will see flags at every home. Thank you. -- J. Dear J.: What an excellent idea. Homes used to come with flag holders attached near a door or window so people could hang large flags on poles for these occasions. But it is certainly easy enough to pick up a small flag on

Dear Annie: My fatherin-law “Ron” is having an affair. At first I was not sure, but now I have proof, and my husband has seen his father with this woman, as well. Even my in-laws have told us that they only coexist with one another. I am not sure if my husband’s mother knows of the affair. She might. Since we saw my fatherin-law with this woman, things have not been the same between him and my husband. My mother-inlaw is not the same, either. One minute she is fine and the next she is not. We will be leaving soon for a joint family vacation and I am not sure I want to be there. I don’t even want to bring my children to their home to visit. My father-in-law has cheated before. I think my motherin-law should divorce him and my husband agrees. He said his parents never seemed compatible when he was growing up.

You might also see new uses for something you already own. This could save you money. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) In discussions with others today, you will be forceful and to the point. (That’s why this is a great day for those of you in sales and marketing.)

From the family of
Helen Battistella Our sincere thanks to all of you, who, in one way or another, expressed your love and concern during Helen’s final journey and death. We thank each and every one of you who sent food trays, baking and made donations to the charities of her choice. We also thank everyone who visited her and made her last days happier. A special thanks to Father Bart van Roijen for the visits at the house prior to her final journey and for the service which was memorable and touching. Thank you also to Gwen Ziprick of Alternatives Funeral and Cremation Services, who quietly and efficiently made it so easy in all aspects of the funeral. We have been deeply touched by the level of support and so many acts of kindness. Kind words can never die, they will lie deep in our hearts to cherish.
