Schreiner focused on helping people BY MARY-ANN BARR ADVOCATE STAFF Since becoming the new MLA for Red Deer North, Kim Schreiner has been away more than she has been home. She’s not complaining. While it’s been a bit of a whirlwind since she became one of the rookie NDP MLAs elected when Rachel Notley’s “orange crush” won a majority government in May, Schreiner is certainly liking her new career. A relative unknown before, Schreiner has been a resident of Red Deer for the past 33 years. She raised her two sons, now grown, with husband Vern, a Red Deer College instructor in the Trades and Technology Millwright Department. Schreiner’s been difficult to catch up with. Up at 5 a.m. on Friday to prepare for another day of meetings, the soft-spoken Schreiner says her life has changed, although the business of helping people is not unfamiliar to her.Just prior to the election, Schreiner was working at Extendicare Michener Hill, a privately-operated, publicly-funded seniors facility in the city, as a health care aide. She was chief union steward there for the Alberta Union of Provincial Employees. Schreiner has a special place in her heart for seniors.

PULL!

RED DEER NORTH One of her very first “jobs” with seniors was when she was a kid. She loved weekends because her mother would let her come along to the seniors lodge overnight in B.C. She would sleep on a couch while her mother worked, and in the morning when her mother would help people get dressed “on the top half” with buttons and things, she would do the “bottom part,” putting their socks and shoes on. “It was one of my favourite things to do — to go and spend time with the seniors.” She continued to help people when she later became a hospital volunteer. Schreiner helped fight against the closure of Red Deer’s two nursing homes and Michener Centre. An “air force brat” now in her 50s, she said both her parents were in the Canadian Forces. That resulted in her being in 13 different schools in Canada and the U.S. through her schooling. That taught her to adjust well to change. “When you came into school your first day, it was like you were friends forever but you didn’t know anyone, and you knew that any time through the year your best friend could be gone.”

Climbing out of a deep, dark place HARMAN WANTS OTHERS TO KNOW THAT THERE IS HELP AVAILABLE FOR MENTAL ILLNESS BY LANA MICHELIN ADVOCATE STAFF The last thing Stephen Harman remembers about July 25, 2014, was holding a bottle of anti-anxiety pills in one hand and a container of industrial alcohol in the other. He’d harboured secret thoughts over the previous six months about shooting himself in the head. Since he didn’t own a gun, these two bottles would have to do. The next few hours were — and still are — a complete blank for the owner of a sculpture foundry southwest of Red Deer. Harman doesn’t remember consuming the alcohol and pills. But he was found stumbling across his backyard towards his shop by a couple of his employees, who noticed his incapacitation and rushed him to hospital in Red Deer. They saved his life, but Harman — a married father of three who had everything to live for — had yet to figure out how to survive. Less than a year later, he believes he has climbed out of “a deep, dark place” of depression. He wants to tell his story to puncture any remaining stigma about mental illness, and to let others know there’s hope. “Once it all starts to come together for you, you want to shout it from the roof tops,” said the affable 49-year-old. “I know there are so many people suffering, and I want those people to know there’s help out there — a lot of help.” After spending 10 weeks in hospitals in Red Deer and Ponoka, Harman tried various therapy options in the community — including a free, very helpful group session run by Alberta Addiction Services (formerly AADAC) in the Provincial Building. He also did a lot of personal reading, and believes he’s found the way to happiness by combining meditation

High temperatures increase fire risk BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

While he was in the grips of depression, he remembers entering his deadline-oriented foundry, which cast such high-profile statues as Douglas Coupland’s Terry Fox installations for Vancouver. He would immediately “shut down” from the profusion of stress hormones being released into his body. Harman used to think he was just tired, moody and unmotivated. To fully function, he would drink alcohol, which temporarily soothed his anxiety but caused other problems. Harman has now quit drinking and achieves serenity through the “mindfulness” technique he first learned through Alberta Addiction Services and continues to hone in yoga classes. The four-minute daily meditation exercise is best summarized by author Sam Harris in his book Waking Up: A Guide to Spirituality Without Religion.

REGINA — An official involved in fighting wildfires in Western Canada says even the nights are hot. Steve Roberts with Saskatchewan’s environment ministry says high temperatures and low humidity are continuing through the nights and into the early mornings, which means fires in the province’s north continue to spread late into the evenings. Roberts says the province planned to use an aircraft from Ontario with infrared equipment to help track fires overnight in order to figure out the best places to deploy firefighters in the morning. Fires close to La Ronge and La Roche in the province’s north continued to burn over the weekend, and have already forced many people in those areas to leave their homes due to thick smoke. In Alberta, almost two dozen new wildfires were reported in a 24-hour period between Saturday and Sunday. The province says a small amount of rain fell on the western side of the High Level Wildfire Management Area in northwestern Alberta, but several fires continue to burn in the vicinity of the town of High Level. Temperatures reached into the 30s across much of Alberta and Saskatchewan on Saturday and Sunday. Further west, the temperature was in the high 30s in parts of B.C. over the weekend. “Our weather forecast is for continued hot, dry conditions, and low chance of precipitation,” Roberts told a media briefing on Sunday about the fire conditions in Saskatchewan.

She feels she no longer has to worry about her husband’s state of mind, saying “he bounces out of bed in the morning and can’t wait to get up and see the kids.” By learning to live in the moment, Harman feels he can enjoy simple things, like the methodical process of making coffee, which he considers to be very like meditation. “You can think of your brain as a wide blue sky and all your thoughts — positive or negative — are like clouds that come and go,” to be acknowledged, but not obsessed over. He feels this allows him to suppress the overload of anxiety and fear chemicals released by his lower “fight, flight or freeze” brain, so his higher brain’s reasoning power can kick in.

is so good, how can you be depressed when there are so many opportunities?” Now he realizes there isn’t a life out there — not his, not the late actor Robin Williams’s — that’s so amazing it’s immune from depression. There should be absolutely no stigma about asking for help, he stressed. “No one is embarrassed to talk about cancer. ...” Yet one of his sons showed him a statistic that states only 10 per cent of people with depression seek help for it. And only a 10th of that small number go back a second time. “He’s so impressed by his dad right now,” said Harman, with a wide grin. Other resources the Harman family found helpful were family counselling sessions at Red Deer Family Services and information provided by the local Alberta Mental Health office. lmichelin@reddeeradvocate.com

STORY FROM PAGE A1

MLA: Working with seniors Schreiner saw a lot of different places, and one day when she came to Red Deer as a young adult to visit friends, she decided “This is where I want to live. ... Red Deer is my community. I chose it as my home.” “My passion has always been to look after those that need it most. I started out working with seniors. ... For many years I worked with paraplegics and quadriplegics, and children ... all these people are important, I’ve always had a soft heart for seniors.” During the election campaign, which ultimately ended the 44-year Conservative reign, Schreiner said she began to sense things were going to change. “To tell you the truth, I probably didn’t say it out loud but I felt it coming, and I really truly did ... knocking on the doors of the constituents in my riding, the support was just overwhelming. The huge desire for change was overwhelming.” She’s been busy meeting with such groups as City of Red Deer representatives, Native Friendship Centre workers, the chamber of commerce, school boards and others. She’s quite comfortable with it, skills she credits to moving around a lot as a child. “I can walk in a room where there’s 100 people I’ve never met before and I don’t feel uncomfortable at all.” There will be no summer holiday. She wants to hear about what’s important to her constituents. “I want to have the opportunity to meet with every single person who needs to talk with me.” Schreiner is on two legislative standing committees — Alberta’s Economic Future and Resource Stewardship. This summer, she will be busy with committee meetings but she expects to be in Red Deer a lot more, meeting constituents and others. Her calendar is quickly filling up. “I feel very honoured to be part of the team, to be able to make important decisions for the people of Alberta.” barr@reddeeradvocate.com

The sessions include people from all walks of life — from the homeless to seemingly-functional professionals. “I’ve come to realize we’re all the same,” he said. Everybody is just trying to be happy. “Sometimes I think, it’s so unfair. Here we are, the six of us, sitting around (the group therapy table), learning all of this incredibly useful, powerful information about life and happiness. ... “And there’s the rest of the world, walking around blindly, wondering ‘Why am I experiencing this road rage? Why is my anger so overwhelming?’ Well, it’s the lower brain taking over.” Harman has no idea why his mood slipped at about age 40, except he was told by a psychiatrist that he fits all five markers for people at high risk of suicide — he’s male, middle aged, with a high IQ, a stressful job and family history of mental illness. His older sister was bipolar and killed herself when she was 37 in 1998. His grandmother suffered from mental illness.

On the bright side, Roberts said the forecast only called for a slight chance of lighting, which often sparks new fires. Over 200 people were also evacuated from Manitoba’s Red Sucker Lake First Nation after a fire crept close to the community late Friday. Shawn Feely, director of the Canadian Red Cross in Manitoba, said six flights carried elderly community members, young children and others with health conditions to a hotel in Winnipeg. Fred Harper, who lives in the community, said the fire started on Friday afternoon about a kilometre away. At one point, he said people were afraid it might burn through the hydro line that supplies the First Nation, but he said the fire has since been contained. “It’s very dry. It hasn’t rained for quite some time,” Harper said from the band office on Sunday. “Usually, it’s wet and then July is a dry month.” Staff at the Calgary Zoo, who normally take extra steps to keep animals cool when temperatures soar, were faced with additional challenges when the facility lost power on Sunday and the thermometer reached 30 C. Zoo spokesperson Trish Exton-Parder said backup generators were brought in and the zoo was closed, and that all the animals were being looked after. Air quality was a concern in Vancouver, where the city issued a warning that the weather could produce high levels of ground-level ozone. It explained the ozone was formed when sunlight from pollutants and other organic compounds react with sunlight. Residents of the city and the Fraser Valley were asked to avoid strenuous outdoor activities during mid-afternoon, when ozone levels are highest.

KEREMEOS, B.C. — Search-and-rescue crews were shocked when an Ontario couple missing for seven days walked out of the backcountry in southern British Columbia. Lynne Carmody, 61, and Rick Moynan, 59, of North Bay, Ont., turned up virtually unharmed on Sunday around 4 p.m., just hours before crews were going to call off the search for them. “We had actually just finished meeting with the family and flying the family into the mountains to really have a last goodbye,” said Paul Berry of Comox Search and Rescue. Carmody and Moynan were reported missing last week after going for a day hike in Cathedral Provincial Park in the South Okanagan Monday morning. Crews launched a rescue operation after the pair failed to turn up that evening as planned at a park lodge where they were vacationing. More than 300 people took part in the search effort, which involved 19 teams from across the province, as well as officials from B.C. Parks, the B.C. Ambulance Service and the RCMP. The search area covered more than 200 square kilometres. “They’re dehydrated, pretty bug-bitten and bruised from all of the deadfall and rocks they had to crawl through,” said Berry on Sunday evening. “But otherwise they’re in surprisingly good condition.” Berry said the pair built a shelter in a heavily wooded drainage basin and hunkered down to be rescued after becoming disoriented and realizing they were lost. But they escaped detection by rescue crews.

WestJet plane lands in Saskatoon after threat; 147 passengers and 6 crew aboard SASKATOON — A WestJet flight bound for Edmonton from Halifax was diverted to Saskatoon on Saturday morning following a bomb threat. Police in Saskatoon said in a news release that the force’s bomb disposal unit responded to John Diefenbaker Airport after a threat was made about an explosive device on a plane that left Halifax. The release said the plane landed safely and that all passengers and crew were safely removed from the aircraft. WestJet spokesman Robert Palmer said there were 147 passengers and a crew of six aboard the Boeing 737-800 that was diverted at around 9:30 a.m. CST. Kelsie Fraser, a spokesperson for the Saskatoon police, said on Saturday afternoon that passengers were still being interviewed by investigators at the airport. “Once they’re finished being interviewed, they’re released back into the care of WestJet,” Fraser said. WestJet said passengers were provided with food and water while police investigated and that they were expected to reach their final destinations later in the day. Police said they were still looking into the incident and Fraser wouldn’t release what agency received the threat. The aircraft remained sitting on the sun-baked tarmac away from the terminal with the baggage still on board through the afternoon, but police agreed to remove a pet carrier containing two cats. It wasn’t as easy as it sounds — the officer who did it had to wear an explosives protection suit in 32 C heat. “It’s a very, very hot suit on the best of days,” Fraser said.

Three killed in collision near Ponoka A fatal two-vehicle collision on Saturday afternoon has claimed the lives of three people. A south bound truck crossed the median on Hwy 2 near Ponoka, into the path of a north bound SUV. Two females in the SUV were pronounced dead at the scene. A female in the truck was also killed in the collision, while a male from the same vehicle was admitted to hospital and is in stable condition. Hwy 2 was closed to north bound traffic during the investigation. RCMP did not release the names of the deceased.

Young woman’s arm amputated after trying to jump on train in Surrey, B.C. SURREY, B.C. — Surrey RCMP say a young woman’s arm was amputated after she slipped and fell under a moving train. Staff Sgt. Blair McColl says a group of young people were walking along train tracks at around 12:30 a.m. Saturday. The train slowed down to a crawl as it approached a switch point before stopping and slowly backing up to change tracks. McColl says the 19-year-old woman tried to jump onto the train, but she slipped and fell and it ran over her arm. He says her arm had to be amputated below the elbow, but she’s now recovering in hospital with nonlife threatening injuries. McColl says the group had left a party and were trying to keep pace with the train, with some trying to jump onto it.

Ukrainians clamour for Canadian TV content as plug pulled on Russian shows BY THE CANADIAN PRESS KYIV, Ukraine — The Littlest Hobo, Anne of Green Gables, maybe even Flashpoint could find a new lease on life in Ukraine as the country’s broadcasting council scrambles to fill TV screens with something other than Russian programming, says a senior Ukrainian official. To counter — both real and perceived — propaganda throughout the war-torn country, President Petro Poroshenko’s government pulled the plug on the Russian signals, leaving a dramatic hole in entertainment and information schedules, said Iurii Artemenko. The country needs both hardware to improve its own radio and television signals and replacement programming. “We try to find something,” Artemenko said in an interview with The Canadian Press. He recently returned from a trip to South Korea, where he was pleading for content. “We need high-quality content, shows, dramas, movies, cultural programs,” he said at the same time as expressing his fondness for Quebec cinema. Artemenko says Canadian programs — dramas and comedies — would welcome and an important uplift for an anxious population. In terms of equipment, Ukraine “doesn’t need money, but tuners and transmitters” to increase coverage in border regions. The Russians, he said, use television very effectively to incite unrest in the East, claiming that actors are interviewed for news programs and fabricate stories of Ukrainian atrocities. Information is still freely available on the Internet, Artemenko says there’s been no attempt to block or censor online feeds — something the former jour-

nalist says he would oppose. “I am journalist, my first profession, and I respect journalism, but I can give you lots of examples of Russian propaganda,” he said. TV is the main weapon in the information war here and its influence is most profoundly felt among adults and the elderly, rather than young people. Among the first targets of Russian special forces in the takeover of Crimea were the television stations and broadcast outlets, which have now blocked all forms of Ukrainian programming. Youth get their information online, but Artemenko says despite having a variety of sources they sometimes are not very savvy about cross-referencing information and sorting fact from fiction. The country needs help with media monitoring to better respond to online disinformation campaigns, particularly on social media. He said met recently with officials from Facebook, who’ve been inundated with requests — all of them apparently from Internet trolls in Moscow — to either discredit or take down pro-Ukrainian posts. “My (request) to Facebook was: Please put a new process in place for those who are responsible for Facebook content in Ukraine because these people think like Ukrainians and know details of what is happening,” he said. Fact-checking Facebook disputes may seem banal, but there is a sinister taint which can morph into violence, especially in this age of online radicalization. Ukraine’s state secret service has one wing devoted to intercepting online traffic and the head of the section, Vitaliy Naida, was quoted in a recent magazine article saying photos of atrocities in Syria — and some from as far back as the war in the Balkans 20 years ago — are being re-captioned and passed off as war crimes in the embattled eastern separatist regions.

COMMENT

MONDAY, JUNE 29, 2015

The carrot and the stick CARBON LEVIES CAN WORK, IF THEY CHANGE OUR BEHAVIOUR There’s a song with a line that goes: “Everybody want to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die.” You could add a verse that says: “Everybody wants to save the world, but nobody wants to pay for it.” Instead, I want to be paid. And so, I think, might you. So pay me already. The Alberta government has GREG announced it NEIMAN will double its levy on excess carbon emissions over the next two years. The Globe and Mail reported this is an attempt by the province to improve our credibility at the global conference in Paris in November pushing us all down the “decarbonization” path. The environmentalist lobby took about 18 seconds to strip the credibility aspect off the announcement. Climate Action Network Canada said only a full stop of oilsands development will be acceptable. Greenpeace said the same, noting that you can’t gain credibility by taxing heavy emitters as a sort of licence to export more and

INSIGHT

more fossil fuels. No doubt both will book tickets on the solar airplane to Paris to make that point. That is more or less a micro picture of humanity’s effort to save us from runaway climate change. But as long as there’s a gazillion barrels of oil in the ground, someone will want to buy it and burn it. So rather than look at the appearances of the provincial announcement, let’s look at its substance. Already, Shell Canada and Capital Power are on side with the announcement. Oilsands giant Suncor is on record as supporting carbon pricing as a means to encourage reductions in carbon emissions. That’s good, because whatever people say about regulating emissions, pricing carbon, cap and trade systems or light bulbs in our houses, only dollars count. This is a tweak of the system put in place by Ralph Klein. Ours was the first government in North America to put a price on carbon emissions and to penalize heavy emitters financially. The financial penalties were light enough to not inhibit energy development, and Alberta’s total emissions have continued to rise since. The law is due for an update this year, so here’s the update. The Calgary Herald reports there are 103 facilities that emit more than

100,000 tonnes of CO2 a year. The old law said they must reduce that by 12 per cent or pay a levy. The new law says they must reduce emissions by 20 per cent by 2017 or pay a levy that’s twice as steep as it was before. That’s the new law, in a nutshell. The corporations spewing out all this CO2 have three options: reduce emissions by becoming more efficient; pay into a technology fund or buy offsets. Myself, I’m becoming partial to the third option. Businesses will naturally strive toward efficiency; it reduces costs and boosts profits. The technology fund option is fine as far as it goes. I like to remember how the Alberta levy on rubber tires eventually produced some pretty interesting new ways of keeping tonnes and tonnes of rubber tires out of landfills. I have no doubt that a technology fund for carbon will eventually produce something useful as well. But if you want faster results, I would emphasize the offsets option. Why? Because it makes dollars change hands, which is the only stick that works on the donkey of commerce. Pay me to produce the offsets. Make it easier for me to invest in solar and wind power. Draft laws to make it simple for me to put solar panels on my roof and see that I get paid for the power they would produce. One article I found said industrial-

scale energy storage will be widely available within five years, and costeffective home off-grid storage sooner than that. Pricing carbon will help ensure that. In the meantime, heavy industry will need to buy some offsets, creating two markets for each new green power installation. If it’s credibility we want, taking coal-fired plants offline as they age and replacing them with green power — financed by levies on the heaviest emitters (that includes our cars and trucks) — would be a good result of last week’s announcement. The giant oil companies know this is going to cost them — and they’re still on board. The price of gasoline is going to rise because of carbon pricing. But we can smooth that with reductions in other taxes, as B.C. has done. And we should also be able to make some of that money back by investing in wind and solar farms, storage banks, or just a few solar panels on our homes. The carrots and sticks that move commerce are the only means proven to work to change human behaviour. So kudos for the upgrade to Alberta’s Specified Gas Emitters Regulation. Next, please see that the money the levies raise are used by Albertans, in Alberta. Neiman is a retired Advocate editor.

Pope Francis offers hopeful perspective on global crises Earth has existed for 4.5 billion years, humans for somewhere around 150,000. But in my brief lifetime — less than 80 years — human populations have exploded exponentially, from two billion to more than seven billion. In that short time, we’ve created consumer societies and decimated the planet’s natural systems, used up resources, filled oceans with plastic and pollution, altered water cycles, and upset the Earth’s carbon cycle, disrupting global climate systems. Our impacts on this small blue planet have been so rapDAVID id, widespread and profound SUZUKI that many scientists call this the Anthropocene Epoch. Much of it has coincided with the discovery and exploitation of fossil fuels, which showed great promise when I was a child. They were abundant and we didn’t understand the consequences of recklessly burning them. Cars were designed to use lots of gas and propel oil industry profits, not to conserve energy. Factories were built to create products and increase distribution efficiencies. No longer confined to growing food and providing agricultural services, people moved to cities and, freed from the constraints of limited access to resources, grew rapidly in number, dramatically increasing consumption. Because our technological prowess has grown

SCIENCE

faster than our knowledge, wisdom and foresight, much of what we’ve created is now crashing down around us — battered by pollution, ecosystem collapse, species extinction, resource scarcity, inequality, climate change and overpopulation. Pope Francis recently put humanity’s situation in context — and offered hope for the future. Regardless of how you feel about religion or the Catholic Church, or even some ideas in the Pope’s encyclical, there’s no denying it contains a powerful, scientifically and morally valid call for radical change that will reach an audience far beyond the world’s 1.2 billion Roman Catholics. In his June 18 address, the Pope called on the world — not just Catholics — to recognize the need for change in the face of ecological crises such as human-caused global warming and the failure of growth-fuelled market economics to facilitate human survival, happiness and prosperity. “Never have we so hurt and mistreated our common home as we have in the last two hundred years,” he said. In his wide-ranging address, Pope Francis spoke about pollution, climate change, water, biodiversity, inequality, poverty, economics, consumerism and spirituality. “The pace of consumption, waste and environmental change has so stretched the planet’s capacity that our contemporary lifestyle, unsustainable as it is, can only precipitate catastrophes, such as those which even now periodically occur in different areas of the world,” he said. “The effects of the present imbalance can only be reduced by our decisive action, here and now.” He also called out those stalling or preventing action to confront environmental problems, especially global warming: “Obstructionist attitudes, even on the part of believers, can range from denial of the

problem to indifference, nonchalant resignation or blind confidence in technical solutions.” Connecting the dots between environmental degradation and inequality, he urged people to “integrate questions of justice in debates on the environment, so as to hear both the cry of the earth and the cry of the poor. Although parts of the address are bleak, the Pope argued that open conversation and changes in thinking, acting and governing could bring about positive change, even for the economy: “Productive diversification offers the fullest possibilities to human ingenuity to create and innovate, while at the same time protecting the environment and creating more sources of employment.” And, he noted, “Human beings, while capable of the worst, are also capable of rising above themselves, choosing again what is good, and making a new start, despite their mental and social conditioning.” The Pope joins a diverse global chorus of people calling for changes in our destructive lifestyle to confront crises such as climate change and the evergrowing gap between poor and rich. These expanding and increasingly urgent calls to confront our hubris for the sake of humanity’s future represent a necessary shift in a way of thinking that has propelled us along what is, after all, just a recent and brief destructive course in our history.

Mother Canada monument provokes war of words INGONISH, N.S. — Rhadie Murphy has spent her life on the rugged coastline that snakes along Cape Breton’s northern flank, its pink granite rocks stretching out near her home in the heart of Ingonish. The 72-year-old is unreserved in her pride and praise of the small community on the eastern edge of the Cape Breton Highlands National Park, calling that piece of the Cabot Trail “the most beautiful place in the world.” So Murphy and her large family were left shaking their heads in bewilderment when their tranquil hometown took centre stage in a fractious debate over Mother Canada, the towering war monument that could adorn their shoreline. “I’m 100 per cent for it, oh God yes. It’s the ideal location and it’s a good way to respect the veterans,” she said from her home about a kilometre from the proposed site in Green Cove. “It will be good for the community and make jobs. I can’t see that little spot that they’re talking about hurting the environment. Why they’re making such a fuss over this I don’t know.” The 24-metre statue depicts a doleful woman with her arms outstretched toward Europe and the Canada Bereft monument at Vimy in France. The draped figure, meant to embrace soldiers who never returned from distant conflicts, is the brainchild of Toronto businessman Tony Trigiano who was struck by the number of young Canadians buried in a European cemetery he visited. It has attracted the support of the federal government and Canadian luminaries, including a former prime minister, business heavyweights, prominent journalists and the president of the Calgary Flames. But the ambitious project has cleaved opinion across the country, with many saying it has no business in a national park and that it cheapens the memory of the war dead who are already commemorated at hundreds of less audacious sites. It has elicited both praise and hy-

perbolic condemnation, with one national newspaper calling it grotesque, redundant, bombastic, and offensively tasteless, showcasing “an approach to art best left to Stalinist tyrants and theme-park entrepreneurs.” However, little of the hubbub has moved the 1,000 or so residents who will live in its shadow. “I think it’s great,” said Glenn Warren, who tends bar at the local legion. “It’s going to bring a lot of people into the area and they’re going to need food, accommodations and gas and it’s going to be a big boost to the economy around here. “I think we’d be very foolish to just throw it away.” Warren, 59, says much of the concern over its environmental impact is coming from outside the immediate community, which has seen schools and businesses shut down as the economy falters and young people leave to find work. Critics say it is proceeding without proper public consultation, environmental scrutiny or full funding from the private interests involved, raising concerns that taxpayers will be on the hook for what could be a $60 million bill. They also insist it contravenes Parks Canada’s core mandate to not cause environmental damage and, rather, preserve “nationally significant examples of Canada’s natural and cultural heritage.” The Atlantic Geoscience Society pressed the matter in a letter to the MP for the area, saying the Green Cove headland is of such geological significance that it is being considered for a provincial geoheritage designation. And in a letter to federal Environment Minister Leona Aglukkaq, 28 former Parks Canada managers said the project — with an interpretive centre, snack and gift shop, theatre and steel walkway — does nothing to enhance the site’s ecological integrity. Sean Howard of the Friends of Green Cove said his group is not opposed to the monument, but wants it placed somewhere else. He takes exception to the fact that Parks Canada gave Trigiano’s group a $100,000 grant even as it assessed the project’s envi-

he said. Supporters, like retired Maj.Gen. Lewis MacKenzie, have defended the choice of location and cite other memorials that have gone up in national and provincial parks, which are also home to hotels and ski resorts.

About 90 soldiers from 5 Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group in Valcartier, Que., have deployed to Poland as part of a NATO response to Russian actions in central and eastern Europe. Over the next month, approximately 200 soldiers will take over Operation Reassurance duties from the 4th Canadian Division’s 2 Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group based in Petawawa, Ont. Officials say the soldiers are to take part in a series of exercises over the next six months with NATO allies and security partners. Members of the Canadian Forces have been in central and eastern Europe since May 2014. Earlier this month, a Canadian warship carrying Stephen Harper in the Baltic Sea was shadowed by two Russian frigates, giving the prime minister a front-row seat in the naval chess game between the West and Russia. Harper’s visit with Canadian sailors came during a planned NATO training exercise called Baltops 2015, part of the alliance’s ongoing reassurance mission aimed at countering Russian-backed unrest in Ukraine.

Salmonella outbreak linked to frozen breaded chicken products OTTAWA — The Public Health Agency of Canada says an outbreak of salmonella infections in four provinces has been linked to frozen raw breaded chicken products. The agency says there are 44 cases of salmonella illness — 28 in Ontario, 12 in Quebec, and two each in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland and Labrador — and all became sick between Feb. 7 and May 23. Twelve people have been hospitalized, but no deaths have been reported.

Salmonella is commonly found in raw chicken and frozen raw breaded chicken products, but the agency says illnesses can be avoided if safe food handling, preparation and cooking practices are followed. The agency says anyone can become sick with a salmonella infection, but infants, children, seniors and those with weakened immune systems are at higher risk of serious illness. Most people who become ill from a salmonella infection will recover fully after a few days, but it is possible for some people to be infected with the bacteria and not get sick or show any symptoms, but still be able to spread the infection to others. Symptoms of a salmonella infection typically start six to 72 hours after exposure and can include fever, chills, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, headache, nausea and vomiting.

B.C. bus company at centre of crash to be audited MERRITT, B.C. — The British Columbia government plans to audit a bus company involved in a serious weekend collision in the province’s Central Interior that sent more than three dozen people to hospitals across the region. The province’s Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure said in an emailed statement that its investigation of Universal Coach Lines will include a review of the company’s drivers. “An audit is standard for operators involved in this type of incident,” read the ministry statement. Police say that shortly before 10 a.m. on Saturday a tour bus rammed into a car and a tow truck parked on the shoulder of the Coquihalla Highway, about 40 kilometres south of Merritt, B.C. The collision left 38 people injured, including two who were airlifted to hospital in serious condition. RCMP Cpl. Chris Newel said charges are ex-

Some Canadian towns giving away land as an incentive to attract new residents BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

MONTREAL â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Large parts of Canada were settled thanks to a government policy of giving out free land to anyone willing to show up and farm it. And although the federal government largely stopped giving out Crown land in the 1930s, some small towns are continuing the tradition by giving their land away for free. Saint-Louis-de-Blandford, a 900-resident community about an hour southwest of Quebec City, decided to take a creative approach to increasing its population. The town purchased a large tract of land and subdivided it into 40 lots which they gave away for free, beginning in 2013, to anyone willing to move there and build a house. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The problem faced by towns of our size is devitalization that happens quietly as young people move to cities,â&#x20AC;? Mayor Gilles Marchand said in an interview. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We figure this will be an incentive for the young and the less young who want to put their money toward home-building.â&#x20AC;? The townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s policy requires buyers to put a $1,000 down payment on a lot and commit to building a house worth $125,000 within a year. The municipality then refunds the down payment. Saint-Louis-de-Blandford isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t alone with the idea. Reston, Man., implemented a similar plan a few years ago to give away land for $10. Tanis Chalmers, the economic development manager for the Rural Municipality of Pipestone, which includes Reston, says the program has been a success. Of the 24 available lots, 19 have been given away and the municipality has expanded the program to the neighbouring towns of Pipestone and Sinclair. Chalmers says about 20 homes have been built in the last two years in Reston. This represents a population increase of 50 people â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not bad for a town of 500. Chalmers says small communities have to compete for residents by offering something special. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The towns that surround us are larger centres,â&#x20AC;? she adds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They may not be able to offer the same incentives we can. But they have their size and the services they offer. This is our way of competing with these communities.â&#x20AC;? Both Chalmers and Marchand believe their towns will profit in the long run by collecting property taxes on the homes. They say a larger population also reduces the cost of services,

per capita, and hopefully leads to increased commercial development. Several small towns in Saskatchewan have experimented with a $1 lot policy in recent years, while Kings Point, N.L., posted on social media earlier this year that it was considering a land giveaway as well. Each town does things a little differently. Some offer lots that are hooked up to sewer and water, while others are on unserviced land. Some also have conditions on the type of construction. There is also still a little free Crown land available â&#x20AC;&#x201D; mostly in the Yukon for people who are tough enough to develop Arctic lands for agricultural purposes through the territoryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Agricultural Lands Program. Giving away free land may not pay off for small towns in the long run, cautions Concordia University professor Bill Reimer, who specializes in rural issues. He said the property tax revenues generated by new residences often arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough to cover the costs of roads, city staff and services. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most research examining the longterm returns for various community land-use strategies indicates that residential land use ends up costing communities more than it provides returns,â&#x20AC;? he said by email. The key, he said, is to attract businesses as well. Both Reston and Saint-Louis-deBlandford offer incentives ranging from tax breaks to cash grants to attract new commerces â&#x20AC;&#x201D; something Marchand and Chalmers admit is a little more difficult than luring residents. Despite the note of caution, they both say their programs have helped their towns as well as residents such as Christian Martin, who recently moved back to the Saint-Louis-de-Blandford region after 10 years away. He received a free 5,500 square-foot (510 square metres) lot â&#x20AC;&#x201D; big enough that he was able to dig a lake on his property in addition to building himself a spacious home. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In a city, just the land would have cost as much as the entire house,â&#x20AC;? said Martin, 51. Marchand said the program has been â&#x20AC;&#x153;an unexpected success.â&#x20AC;? All of his townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s original 40 free lots have been spoken for and the town is currently planning another phase of giveaways. By offering lots big enough for a home with a backyard, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s managed to attract several young families, a prize demographic he hopes will ensure his townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future. The young population has gone up so much, he says, that the town is looking at bringing in a subsided daycare in the coming months.

Toronto Pride parade sees politicians, celebrities unite despite downpours TORONTO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Cold temperatures and a constant drizzle didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to dampen spirits at Torontoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 35th annual Pride parade, which brought together a diverse group of celebrities, politicians and people from all walks of life. Huge crowds lined Torontoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Yonge Street to watch the parade which was themed â&#x20AC;&#x153;Come out and Play,â&#x20AC;? waving flags, dressing up in outrageous costumes and proudly displaying their pride in what has traditionally been the largest event of its kind in the country. Water fights were noticeably absent at this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event as light showers drenched crowds throughout the day. Elton Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s husband David Furnish, an east-end Toronto native and filmmaker, was the grand marshal of the festivities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a real honour to be asked and to come back to my home city where I grew up and to see so much change, so much positive change, and to see the whole city turning out to support people on this iconic week and particularly in light of the big decision that happened in America on Friday,â&#x20AC;? he said, referring to the U.S. Supreme Court ruling that made same-sex marriage a right across the United States. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It just feels very meaningful to be here right now.â&#x20AC;? Furnish, 52, said things have changed since his days growing up in the city, adding that he is â&#x20AC;&#x153;overwhelmed by how itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s changed.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you were gay in your 20s and 30s in Toronto when I was growing up it was very much being part of a ghetto, part of a fringe society.,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re excluded, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on the outskirts, there was no integration and when you see the way the entire city of Toronto now embraces everybody collectively itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an amazing and powerful thing.â&#x20AC;? Furnish said Canada had a â&#x20AC;&#x153;huge impactâ&#x20AC;? on the world by introducing the Civil Marriage Act, which passed exactly 10 years ago to the day, but said while the progress being made toward LGBTQ acceptance is encouraging, it was like â&#x20AC;&#x153;tipping dominosâ&#x20AC;? one at a time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have to keep tipping them over until we have the entire world free of homophobia and we have LGBTQ people decriminalized everywhere and we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stop until weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re finished,â&#x20AC;? he

said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to be here to celebrate the landmark of how far weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve come but also to pay it forward and help all the people that need our support.â&#x20AC;? International grand marshals included Bollywood actress and Indian gay rights supporter Celina Jaitly, members of Russian feminist punk rock band Pussy Riot, singer-songwriter Cyndi Lauper and YouTube sensation and youth ambassador Brendan Jordan. Political activist and Pussy Riot member Nadezhda Tolokonnikova said sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hoping to see a similar parade in Russia one day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m happy to see so 1/8many 3/8 people joining this Pride because you know we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have stuff like this in Russia yet,â&#x20AC;? she said, adding she believes there is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;small possibilityâ&#x20AC;? of a Pride parade in Moscow in the near future if there was more international pressure put on Russian President Vladimir Putin for LGBTQ rights. Members of the band rode in the parade on a massive red rocket atop a military truck. Politicians marching in Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parade included federal leaders Thomas Mulcair of the NDP, Liberal Justin Trudeau and Elizabeth May of the Greens, Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne, along with provincial leaders Patrick Brown of the PCs and New Democrat Andrea Horwath, and Toronto Mayor John Tory. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think its important for political leaders across the country to come out for Pride parades because its a way of showing our support for the diversity of our society, wanting to break down barriers, making Canada a more inclusive place,â&#x20AC;? said Mulcair. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really wish Prime Minister Harper would have been here, as prime minister I would intend to come back to Pride year after year to show my support for the entire community, for the openness of Canadian society and for LGBTQ issues as a whole.â&#x20AC;?

BY GREG MEACHEM ADVOCATE SPORTS EDITOR The relief in Adam Musil’s voice was obvious. The Red Deer Rebels power forward was selected by the St. Louis Blues early in the fourth round of the NHL entry draft Saturday at Sunrise, Fla. The six-foot-two, 202-pound centre was projected as a late second- to early third-round pick, but was on the board until the Blues took him 94th overall. “It’s been a long day but I’m excit- REBELS LOOKING FOR IMPACT ed to be with the PLAYER AT IMPORT DRAFT B3 Blues,” Musil told the Blues VideoCentre. “It’s a great moment for my family and myself. I’m really happy. The Blues have a great team and it’s a great organization. Obviously I want to be a part of the Blues family. It’s an exciting time, an exciting day. For sure it was a long one, but it’s an honour to be part of this organization now.” Red Deer native Andrew Nielsen, a Lethbridge Hurricanes defenceman, was selected by the Toronto Maple Leafs early in the third round, 65th overall. Musil praised Rebels GM/head coach Brent Sutter for helping him achieve his dream of being drafted. “He’s taught me a lot, he’s been through all the things that are necessary to get to that next level,” said the North Vancouver native. “He’s given me a lot of tips on how to get to the next level.” Musil is hoping to follow in the footsteps of his father Frank and uncle Bobby Holik, who both had lengthy NHL careers. His older brother, David, has played four games with Edmonton and remains one of the Oilers’ top prospects. “With my dad’s experience and my brother’s experience, I can use that to my advantage and that’s what I try to do,” said Musil. Due to this year’s draft featuring an inordinate amount of talent and potential, Sutter said Musil could eventually become a better NHL player than one taken in the second round. “There were four tiers of players in this draft,” said Sutter. “You had (Connor) McDavid and (Jack) Eichel at the top, then the next tier went down to about No. 10. Then it went from there right through to the third and fourth rounds, and then you had the last tier of players. It was a very deep draft that way.” The Rebels boss also wasn’t surprised that Musil slipped to the fourth round. “One, it was a deep draft, and two, he had a tough second half of the year,” said Sutter. Three other Rebels — defenceman Austin Strand and forwards Evan Polei and Grayson Pawlenchuk — were passed over in the draft despite being ranked by Central Scouting. Although disappointed for the players, Sutter said each of them, like Musil, suffered through bouts of inconsistency during the 2014-15 season. “I’m disappointed that at least a couple of them weren’t drafted, but it is what it is,” he said. “But they are guys who will have an opportunity to be drafted next year. At the end of the day, consistency is such a big thing and that’s something we as coaches stressed with these guys. You have to be continue to get better out there. You can’t have ups and downs. If you want to get to the next level you have to continue to grow and develop, and not just on the ice but with your off-ice habits too . . . eating and training habits.

Future is bright for Canada despite feeling pain now BY THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER — The aftermath of Canada’s exit from the Women’s World Cup was gut-wrenching. Captain Christine Sinclair, who had strapped the team on her back and tried to carry it to the final four, was in tears as she needlessly apologized to coach John Herdman following Canada’s 2-1 quarterfinal loss to England. Teenage defender Kadeisha Buchanan, who deserves to be on the tournament all-star team, sobbed as she knelt on the field at B.C. Place Stadium. “They gave their best. And our best just wasn’t good enough,” said Herdman. It was a moment of public clarity from a charismatic and talented coach who pulls every string on the Canadian team. There is little unscripted from Herdman. But he was gutted Saturday night. “I’m a bit emotional at the minute,” he confessed. Goals conceded in the 11th and 14th minutes did eighth-ranked Canada in. Lack of offence, a chronic problem, prevented a comeback although Sinclair took advantage of a goalkeeping gaffe to pull Canada within one in the 42nd minute. Herdman accepted blame for the second goal, a set piece that saw England’s Lucy Bronze take advantage of fullback Allysha Chapman’s lack of height. England captain Steph Houghton said later it was a matchup her team had targeted. The first goal came off a handling error by centre back Lauren Sesselmann. “You play at this level (and) what’s going to win a match, it’s an error like that or a set piece and we got done in both situations,” said Herdman. When a reporter trying to get a comment on Sesselmann’s play by asking about the “girl who made the mistake tonight,” Herdman replied: “Which one?” “There was a few mistakes tonight,” he said. His point was that Sesselmann was not the villain of the piece.

Herdman was forced to defend his lineup selections, saying the team’s leadership had endorsed it. Still he drew criticism from Fox TV commentators. “There’s a coach who feels that he’s such a good motivator that he can make his players better than they sometimes are. I think he got this one wrong,” said former U.S. international Eric Wynalda. “He has mismanaged this World Cup for his team,” added former Canadian international Christine Latham. If anything Herdman can be accused of micromanaging a squad limited in depth and hampered by injury. Players like Sophie Schmidt (hip), Buchanan (abdominal sprain) and Chapman (oblique) were playing through pain. But the bottom line is his players love him and Herdman has put women’s soccer on the map in this country. He acknowledges there is more work to be done. “This is where we’re at,” said Herdman when asked if we had seen the best of Canada at the tournament. Herdman pointed to Canada’s previous coaching turnover, saying that meant there was no 10-year master plan to have players peak at this tournament. “But we did it. Our country got behind us, they’ve had a great time, great experience. and there’s going to be a new generation of women, players, coaches that have been motivated by what they’ve seen ... So I’m absolutely clear that, whatever happened, we needed to get to the knockout rounds, we needed to get to the quarter-finals. “If we’d went all the way, we were punching well above our weight but I believe this team had the spirit to do it.” The team that had inspired Canada with its 2012 Olympic bronze medal run showed it still had the nation’s heart. The Canadian women drew 241,904 fans to their five tournament games and each one was a love-in.

Oilers get their goaltender, make splash at draft BY THE CANADIAN PRESS SUNRISE, Fla. — Armed with a stockpile of picks acquired by predecessor Craig MacTavish, general manager Peter Chiarelli turned NHL draft weekend into a transformative one for the Edmonton Oilers. Connor McDavid was the prize but the Oilers also got their goaltender in a trade for Cam Talbot and improved their defence with deals for Eric Gryba and Griffin Reinhart. And they did it all without giving up much of their current roster. “I’ve got to give MacT some credit here because we had a lot of picks here, and we were able to shift some picks around and we were able to use the picks to get some players,” Chiarelli said Saturday. “You’ve got to make hay when the sun shines, so this was a good time to do it.” In Talbot, the Oilers get a 27-yearold with just 57 games of experience but the potential to blossom into a legitimate starter. All it cost was the 57th, 79th and 184th picks in the draft, and Edmonton got the 209th selection back. Talbot’s play late in the regular season when Henrik Lundqvist was injured stood out to Chiarelli. “I think he’s really come into his own,” Chiarelli said. “With a goalie like that, there’s a smaller sample size with these guys, so you never know.

The puck rings off the post behind New York Rangers goalie Cam Talbot during NHL action against the Ottawa Senators on March 26, 2015. The Edmonton Oilers got their goaltender. On a busy morning of trades at the NHL draft, the Oilers acquired Cam Talbot from the New York Rangers. “It’s such an inexact science as goalies. He played really well for the last two years and he really played well in crunch time for the Rangers.” The Caledonia, Ont., native has one year left on his contract at a cap hit of US$1.45 million. Chiarelli is taking

some risk in acquiring a goalie who could be an unrestricted free agent next summer, but he told Talbot once he lives and plays in Edmonton, “I betcha you’re going to want to stay here.” McDavid sat at the Oilers’ draft table Saturday morning and had nothing

but good things to say about the move for Talbot. “He’s a great goalie, stepped in great when Lundqvist was out and did a great job,” the No. 1 pick said. “That was something Edmonton wanted to do was go out and get a goalie, and they did that.” They also checked off a box by getting Reinhart on Friday night from the New York Islanders for the 16th and 33rd picks and then Gryba from the Ottawa Senators for prospect Travis Ewanyk and the 107th pick. That selection came from the Maple Leafs in another deal which sent defenceman Martin Marincin to Toronto for minorleague forward Brad Ross. Gryba, 27, is expected to be a thirdpairing defenceman in Edmonton. “I’ve always had a soft spot for Gryba,” Chiarelli said. “I think he’s a good, strong D, he plays a heavy game, he hits, he’ll back up his teammates.” The Senators originally drafted Gryba with the pick they received as compensation from the Boston Bruins for hiring Chiarelli, who said “might as well come full circle.” Edmonton paid off on its compensation for coach Todd McLellan in the form of the 86th pick and took defenceman Caleb Jones 117th, defenceman Ethan Bear 124th, defenceman John Marino 154th, goaltender Miroslav Svoboda 208th and defenceman Ziyat Paigin 209th.

RED DEER ADVOCATE Monday, June 29, 2015 B3

Rebels looking for impact player at import draft BY GREG MEACHEM ADVOCATE SPORTS EDITOR The Red Deer Rebels released Mario Grman today, but the Slovak defenceman could still return to the team. Rebels GM/head coach Brent Sutter cut ties with Grman just ahead of Tuesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Canadian Hockey League draft, in which Sutter is hoping to land an impact forward to fill the clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quota of two import players. The Rebels boss acquired 19-year-old forward Ivan Nikolishin from the Everett Silvertips in early May. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to do anything with Mario until I had some feel as to where weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re at for the draft,â&#x20AC;? Sutter said Sunday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The reality of it is, if we get to the point where any of the players we want arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t there, we can re-pick him. We can bring him back.â&#x20AC;? The Rebels pick 48th overall in the draft and Sutter is hoping that an â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Alistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; player will still be available at that point. With Red Deer hosting the Memorial Cup tournament next year, the team should have a decent chance of landing a top-six forward. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working on,â&#x20AC;? said Sutter, who is well aware that the import draft is somewhat of a crapshoot. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve said this from the get-to: Unless you can get a player who can play in your top six forwards, why are you drafting him?â&#x20AC;? Sutter continued. The Rebels boss pointed to last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s draft as an example of how much WHL general managers have to rely on agents while identifying prospective import players. Grman was actually the Rebelsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; second-round pick, with first-round selection â&#x20AC;&#x201D; defenceman Hugo Jansons â&#x20AC;&#x201D; failing to make an early favourable impression and being released in November after recovering from an injury.

LACROSSE The Red Deer Renegades got twogoal performances from Kane Weik, Travis Mears and Curtis Hallman Sunday in a 12-7 Rocky Mountain Lacrosse League junior B tier 2 win over the Calgary Wranglers. Also scoring for the Renegades were Nick Scott, Chase Boswell, Richard

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were told by his (Jansonsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;) agent, Igor Larionov, that he (Jansons) could come in and play in our top four,â&#x20AC;? said Sutter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As it turns out, he comes in and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even play on our hockey team. That kind of stuff goes on, so you have to be really careful. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once all the A-list players are gone, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re down to the B list and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just counting on agents at that point.â&#x20AC;? That being said . . . â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re optimistic that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get a good player, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important for the team,â&#x20AC;? said Sutter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what the age of the player will be. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of 18-year-olds who are better than 19-year-olds, and some 17-year-olds are better than the 18- and 19-year-olds. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just trying to get a guy who can come in and play in our top six.â&#x20AC;? â&#x2014;? The Rebels have hired Erik Lodge as their skills development coach. Lodge, who teaches and runs the hockey academy at Notre Dame High School, replaces Clayton Beddoes, who will coach in Italy next season. Beddoes was hired to fill the new skills development post last year and Sutter was impressed with his work. As a result, he felt it was vital to fill the position upon Beddoesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; exit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After going through it with the coaching staff and sitting down with Erik, it just seemed that he is a real good fit,â&#x20AC;? said Sutter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Clayton worked with the players a lot, including during and after practice. It was something new. We thought weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d give it a try for a year and I really liked it. I thought it really helped the kids and the kids enjoyed it. It was something different.â&#x20AC;? The Rebels will make an official announcement this week concerning Lodgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hiring. gmeachem@reddeeradvocate.com Watt, Jeff Sebastian, Ryan Margetts and Carter Copeland-Blair. On Friday, the Renegades dumped the Lacoka Locos 16-2. Tyler Schumacher fired four goals, Weik notched three, Hallman, Cody Rush and Marshall Smyth each potted a pair and Mears, Scott and Aiden Wilson each connected once. Dustin Bell accounted for both Lacoka markers. In another weekend contest, the Locos fell 15-12 to the Strathmore Venom.

REBELS: Important parts â&#x20AC;&#x153;These guys are important parts of our team and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll continue to address these things with them. Some take longer than others to clue in on it. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all about attitude, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where guys like Pawly, Evan and Strander donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get drafted because of consistency things and doing things right all the time,â&#x20AC;? added Sutter. While Polei went undrafted, he will attend the Detroit Red Wings prospects camp this summer and will also participate in the clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fall camp. â&#x2014;? The six-foot-three, 207-pound Nielsen is considered somewhat of a late bloomer, having just completed his first season with the Hurricanes after playing at the minor midget AAA level in 2012-13 and joining the midget AAA Red Deer Optimist Chiefs as a 17-year-old the following season. Clearly, the Leafs scouts were impressed with Nielsenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s play during his rookie WHL season. He appeared in 59 games with the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Canes, scoring seven goals and collecting 24 points to go with 101 penalty minutes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Honestly, I was speechless,â&#x20AC;? he told Pat Siedlecki of Hurricane Watch, shortly after being selected by Toronto. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have predicted any of that.â&#x20AC;? Nielsen did not attend the draft. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was honoured and blessed that I had my family around me to share the experience,â&#x20AC;? he said from his Red Deer home. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is kind of surreal getting to go to a team like that that has so much history. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just excited and looking forward to the next couple of weeks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect to go that early, it was a shock. It was a relief just knowing that all the hard work and the process are finally falling into place. If you would have told me at the start of the year that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be a Toronto Maple Leaf on June 27th, I probably would have laughed at you.â&#x20AC;? gmeachem@reddeeradvocate.com

Argos down Eskimos in Fort McMurray â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;home-openerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; BY THE CANADIAN PRESS FORT MCMURRAY â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Toronto Argonauts quarterback Trevor Harris used Ricky Rayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s advice to perform like his mentor in a 26-11 victory over the Edmonton Eskimos on Saturday. Harris completed 24 of 27 pass attempts for 347 yards in Torontoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s homeopener far from home in Fort McMurray, Alta. The 29-year-old threw touchdown passes to Brandon Whitaker, Vidal Hazelton and Tori Gurley, as well as a two-point convert throw to Chad Owens. Harris will be Torontoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s starter for the near future. Ray, a three-time Grey Cup champion, began this season on the six-game injured list rehabilitating from off-season shoulder surgery. Harris said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d asked for Rayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s input prior to just the second start of his CFL career. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He gave me real simple advice,â&#x20AC;? Harris said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He just told me to trust my feet and trust my eyes. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my job to keep the ship afloat until heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s back.â&#x20AC;? Harrisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 88.9 per cent completion rate was the second-highest in a single game in Argonauts history, according to the team. Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game was the first regular-season CFL game played at the new SMS Equipment Stadium in Fort McMurray, although the Eskimos played a pre-season game there earlier this month. That game and Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s have been billed as the most northerly CFL games ever played. Scheduling issues at Rogers Centre and the Pan American Games in Toronto in July will keep the Argonauts on the road. Their first home game isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t until Aug. 8. So the Argos were the home team Saturday despite the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proximity to Edmonton 400 kilometres to the

Erin McLeod and particularly youngsters Buchanan and Ashley Lawrence, as the dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s standout performers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you look at those youngsters, I think thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a new DNA coming through. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a new breed of Herdman that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re bringing through and it was a transitional team, we knew that.â&#x20AC;?

southwest. Edmonton quarterback Mike Reilly was 16-for-28 in passing for 170 yards and was intercepted once. He threw a touchdown pass to Kenny Stafford in the opening quarter, but left the game with just over three minutes remaining with an apparent knee injury. Backup Matt Nichols completed one of six pass attempts in relief. Eskimos kicker Grant Shaw kicked a field goal and a pair of punt singles. Both teams contributed to penaltyfilled affair with a combined 245 lost yards, but the Eskimos also had five turnovers in the second half. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Very frustrating because I know weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re better than that,â&#x20AC;? Eskimos receiver Adarius Bowman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Argos did a great job for us tonight, but we could have been a lot smarter with some of the decisions we made as a whole.â&#x20AC;? Toronto kicker Swayze Waters left the game with a quadricep injury and veteran receiver Dave Stala was pressed into kick and punt duties. The 35-year-old has been an emergency kicker before in his career, but not for several seasons. Stala had 340 punting and kicking yards, including a 43-yard punt single. â&#x2014;? Kevin Glenn was supposed to be the Saskatchewan Roughridersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; backup quarterback this season. Less than two quarters into the 2015 campaign, Glenn was thrust into the starterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s role, a position heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll continue after starter Darian Durant suffered a season-ending injury on Saturday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s out,â&#x20AC;? noted Roughriders coach Corey Chamblin, whose team dropped a 30-26 decision to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in the regularseason opener for both teams. The team later announced that he suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon and will miss the rest of the season.

The 2016 Olympics are the next hurdle and Herdman will be forced to cull his squad somewhat since the Olympic roster is 18 instead of the World Cupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 23. While the Canadian women need not hang their heads for their performance on the field, they did not win kudos for their reaction to Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loss.

While the numbers say exiting in the quarterfinals is about right for No. 8 Canada, the World Cup draw was very benign for the hosts. Finishing first in a group with the 12th-ranked Netherlands, No. 16 China and No. 17 New Zealand earned Canada a date with No. 19 Switzerland. Canada, a cut below elite teams like Germany, France, Japan, and the U.S., was never going to win the tournament. But the semifinals beckoned given the draw. No. 6 England represented Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first higherranked opponent. With just four goals in five games, Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offence ranked 10th at the tournament. Its three goals conceded represented the fourth stingiest defence. The Canadian women tied for sixth with 61 shots and 10th in shots on target (20). They hit the woodwork four times, most in the tournament. Herdman was incredulous as he recounted Sinclairâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tearful post-game apology. Sinclair singlehandedly triggered a stirring fightback with her 155th career international goal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say sorry. She was just a legend again tonight. She was outstanding,â&#x20AC;? said Herdman. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Answered some of the critics. Stood up in the big moment when she needed to.â&#x20AC;?

B4 Rampage cook up home win

MONDAY, JUNE 29, 2015

BY JOSH ALDRICH ADVOCATE STAFF Rampage 12 Warriors 10 There’s no place like home for the Red Deer TBS Rampage. The Rampage returned to Alberta from their disastrous Winnipeg road trip to beat the Sherwood Park Titans 11-9 Friday in Sherwood Park and then edged the arch rival Edmonton Warriors 12-10 at the Kinex Arena on Sunday. The weekend sweep secured their lead at the top of the Rocky Mountain Lacrosse League Junior B Tier I standings. “It was good to get back to the lacrosse that we know we can play,” said head coach Dustin Reykdal. “In Winnipeg we weren’t really playing Rampage lacrosse that we’re known for. Coming back home ... it was good to get some momentum and get some confidence with the guys.” The three losses in Winnipeg were their first of the season. In Sunday’s win Nate Bellanger led the way with two goals while Ryan Beatson and Levi Whitney both had a goal and three assists. Tristyn Zarubiak, Ryan Strome, Jordan Waddell, Logan Elliott, Dawson Reykdal, Logan Sinclair, Mat Giele and Blayne Friesen all scored once for Red Deer. Darrian Banack made 30 saves for the win. Tyler Sonnichson scored four times for Edmonton while Riley Ewashko had three goals. Ryan Ewashko, Seth McDermott and Drew Gingras also scored. Rhett Baldwin made 32 saves in the loss. The Rampage were well in control of the game, up 8-4 in the second period, and they nearly let the game get away from them. As a team, they allowed the Warriors to get under their skin and they started taking penalties, most critically a five-minute major by Lorne Baile for high sticking. The Warriors scored twice in four seconds to cut the lead to 8-6 and jump back into the game. The game was tight from there on out, but the Rampage did manage to hang on for the win. “We took too many penalties,” said Reykdal. “Every time we play the Warriors they like to grease it up a bit and goad our team into some penalties, so we just have to stay disciplined if we want to stay successful against the Warriors.” The head coach did praise the work of Devin Sheridan after the game for his play in the defensive end. “He played great out the back gate, he had his match ups and he was aware,” said Reykdal. Up next for the Rampage is a rematch with the

Canadians look to build on recent rugby success in Super Series BY JOSH ALDRICH ADVOCATE STAFF After reaching new heights with a silver medal at the Women’s’ Rugby World Cup, the Canadian national team is out to validate their success. On Canada Day they will host Team U.S.A. at Titans Park at 6:30 p.m. for the second leg of the three game Women’s Rugby Super Series. Also playing will be the New Zealand Black Ferns against England at 4 p.m. The series represents the first action for Team Canada since falling 27-9 to England in the gold medal game at the World Cup on August 17, 2014 in France. “This past year has been awesome, just the amount of exposure the sport has got all over Canada, because so many had access to watching the World Cup so it put so much more emphasis on it,” said Team Canada captain Laura Russell. “For the players coming in there is so much more excitement coming up and we’re really looking forward to this tournament coming up. We’re starting to rebuild immediately and looking forward to 2017.” There has been a bit of turnover on the roster since that gold medal

Hopes are, however that it will help them get even better for the 2017 World Cup in Ireland.

One of the big changes was elevating Russell to captain this past Tuesday. “It’s an absolutely huge honour, I am so proud and so honoured to be

able to represent those amazing ladies we have on the field,” said the 26-yearold prop who has 13 caps for Canada. “I try to lead by example and keep everybody organized and calm and have every aspect of the game covered and keep everything running smoothly.” Canada lost the first leg of the Super Series 40-22 to New Zealand on Saturday in Calgary. Olivia DeMerchant, Andrea Burk, Latoya Blackwood scored tries for Canada in the loss for Canada, who fell behind 18-5 in the first half, but got it back to 18-12 at the break. The Black Ferns, however, pulled away in the second half. “It wasn’t the result we expected but for us it was our first game in nearly a year,” said Canadian head coach Francois Ratier in a press release. Russell is hoping for a much better game on Wednesday against their arch rivals, imploring fans to come dressed in red especially considering it is Canada Day. “It couldn’t be a better atmosphere to walk into,” she said. “The Americans always come out really hard, they like to play up in your face and try to take us down early.

Watson wins second Travelers Championship DELAET FINISHES TWO-SHOTS OFF IN FOURTH PLACE BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Maggert wins US Senior Open for 2nd senior major title of the year BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Jeff Maggert is moving into an elite class on golf’s senior circuit. Maggert won the U.S. Senior Open on Sunday for his second major victory on the Champions Tour this year. He closed with a 5-under 65 at sun-drenched Del Paso Country Club, edging defending champion Colin Montgomerie by two strokes. The victory makes Maggert more than just a repeat winner on the 50-and-over tour. Along with Montgomerie (three) and Bernhard Langer (three), the three have combined to win the last eight majors. “It’s satisfying just because the guys out here on the Champions Tour are the same guys that I was trying to beat 20 years ago,” Maggert said. The 51-year-old American won his first senior major last month in Alabama in the Regions Tradition. His only other Champions Tour victory came in Mississippi last year. Maggert had just three wins in more than 20 years on the PGA Tour, the last in the 2006 St. Jude Classic. Now he has matched that total in a little more than a year on the Champions Tour. “I had a lot of good runs in the U.S. Open over the years and probably lacked a little maturity to pull it off,” he said. “But certainly, now that I’m an old guy, I’ve learned a lot and was able to just steady myself and play well.” Maggert made six birdies and one bogey to finish at 10-under 270. He took home $675,000, a gold medal, a silver trophy and an exemption into next year’s U.S. Open at Oakmont. Montgomerie closed with a 66. Grant Waite and Langer tied for third at 7 under. Waite had a 67, and Langer, who shared the lead with Maggert after three rounds, shot a 68. But nobody could shake Maggert, who provided a little bit of drama to a final round that lacked it when his approach on the 18th landed in the upslope of the greenside bunker. He wedged out and made the 4-foot par putt, raising his arms in celebration. Maggert embraced wife Michelle and their 10-year-old children, twins Madeline and Jake, who came running onto the green — with Madeline leaping into his arms. His family had taken an early morning flight from South Carolina and showed up on the practice range before Maggert began his round. They had missed his other victories on the Champions Tour and didn’t want to miss another.

RUGBY: Grow the sport In Canada we like to move around the field with a completely different style but hard up in your face. It should be a good battle for sure.” She adds this is a special opportunity for the club to tour in Alberta and hopes to continue to help the sport grow in the province. One of the more recent developments in the sport is the inclusion of rugby in the Olympics, though just the seven-man version of the game. Red Deer’s Paige Farries plays for Canada’s Women’s 7s. Still Russell says it all help build the sport. “It’s so exciting, you can see it across Canada, everyone is building and all of the programs are coming up and we’re getting more exposure and better athletes and better staff around us, it’s really exciting,” said Russell. The series wraps up in Edmonton on July 5 against England, giving them a chance for some World Cup retribution. “You have to also look at so many positive things happened and so many great things for womens rugby in Canada happened, ,”said Russell. “But you also look at it as an athlete with the disappointment, but you build on that and create and build off that success as well.” Tickets for Wednesday games are available through www.rugbycanada.ca jaldrich@reddeeradvocate.com

Bubba Watson holds the championship trophy after winning the Travelers Championship golf tournament, Sunday, in Cromwell, Conn. Watson beat out Paul Casey in a playoff. After 39 straight holes without a bogey, he had backto-back bogeys on Nos. 9 and 10 to fall two strokes behind Watson. His birdies on the final two holes were not enough to catch Casey and Watson. But the finish assured the 28-year-old from Georgia a spot in the British Open, along with Canadian Graham DeLaet, who finished two shots back, Carl Pettersson who finished fifth at 13 under, and Luke Donald, who tied for seventh at 11 under. Sixth-place finisher Zach Johnson already had an exemption into the field. DeLaet finished with a 14-under 266. The Weyburn, Sask., native birdied three times on the back

Canadian tennis stars Raonic, Bouchard hope for another career boost at Wimbledon BY THE CANADIAN PRESS WIMBLEDON, United Kingdom — A year after Eugenie Bouchard and Milos Raonic made big breakthroughs at Wimbledon, the two Canadians face big challenges at the 2015 edition of the storied Grand Slam. Bouchard, from Westmount, Que., was runner-up to 2014 winner Petra Kvitova while Raonic, from Thornhill, Ont., lost in the semi-finals to seven-time champion Roger Federer. Twelve months later, Bouchard, 21, and Raonic, 24, enter the event with injury issues. Bouchard withdrew from a second-round match in Eastbourne last Wednesday with an abdominal strain and was unable to practice until Sunday. She suffered a similar injury at the Indian Wells event in March, but recovered in a week before playing in Miami. “I’m hoping for the same kind of turnaround here,” she said Saturday. Her first-round opponent on Tuesday will be sixfoot-one, 185-pound Duan Ying-Ying, a 24-year-old

Chinese qualifier ranked No. 117. Raonic had surgery for an inflamed nerve in his right foot and missed the French Open, but he won two rounds in his return to action at the recent Queen’s Club event in London. “I’ve made great progress in the last 18 days,” he said Saturday. “I feel good where I am now.” On Monday he faces Daniel Gimeno-Traver, a 29-year-old Spaniard ranked No. 62. Bouchard has a strong history at Wimbledon winning the 2012 Junior Girls title and beating Ana Ivanovic the following year in her Centre Court debut. Raonic won only one Wimbledon match as a junior and did not get past the men’s second round between 2011 and 2013. That changed last year. “The grass can be quick and the biggest difference in the past was I hesitated to go for my shots,” he said. “That was making me fall behind in points. Last year, every single practice I was serving as hard as I could, really making a habit of executing. I served great last year and think I know how to use that again this year.” Vancouver’s Vasek Pospisil is also in singles. He plays French qualifier Vincent Millot on Tuesday.

CROMWELL, Conn. — Bubba Watson is hard to beat in a playoff. The long-driving lefty made an 8-foot birdie putt on the second extra hole Sunday to outlast Paul Casey for his second Travelers Championship victory. Watson improved to 5-1 in overtime. Casey overcame a three-stroke deficit with five to play, catching Watson at 16-under 264 in light rain at TPC River Highlands. But the 37-year-old Englishman, playing the tournament for the first time, lost his chance at the title while playing the par-4 18th for the third time when his third shot from a greenside bunker flew over the green and landed on the cart path. Watson hit his 160-yard approach just to the right of the hole to set up his winning putt. “I hung on, and that’s what you have to do sometimes to win,” Watson said. Watson, who also needed extra holes to win the WGC-HSBC Champions in China in November at the start of the season and won the Travelers in 2010 in a three-way playoff for his first win on the PGA Tour. “It’s just about staying calm,” he said. “That’s what you have to do, you just breathe and walk slower, take some deep breaths and focus on the fact that no matter what you still come in second place.” Watson had a chance to win in regulation. But the two-time Masters champion bogeyed the 17th, while Casey closed with three birdies on the final five holes, sandwiched around a bogey on 15. Casey watched in the scoring trailer with 9-monthold son Lex on his lap as Watson made a 3 ½ -foot par putt to force the playoff. Watson finished with a 67, and Casey shot 65. “There are always ifs and buts and could haves,” Casey said. “But the goal was to give myself a chance to win, and I did that.” This was the sixth time since 2004 this tournament has gone to overtime. Brian Harman, who had a one-stroke lead after 54 holes, had a 69 to finish a stroke out of the playoff.

nine, but had a bogey on 18 to finish his round at 1 under. “I’ve been thinking about that tournament for a long time and really trying to look at a way to get in there,” Harman said. “This one burns a little bit, but that definitely helps the sting.” The Travelers was the first of three PGA Tour events where finishers not already exempt can get into St. Andrew’s. There also are four spots available at The Greenbrier Classic and one at the John Deere Classic. Watson became the sixth multiple winner of this tournament, joining Billy Casper (1963, 1965, 1968, 1973), Arnold Palmer (1956, 1960), Paul Azinger (1987, 1989), Phil Mickelson (2001, 2002), Peter Jacobsen (1984, 2003) and Stewart Cink (1997, 2008). Rain forced a late start Sunday, and the players went off in threesomes from two tees. But the wet weather also created scoring opportunities, with players taking advantage of the soft greens to shoot for the pins. Watson started strong with birdies on his first two holes, chiding a fan on the second hole who had suggested he go under a tree with a 4-iron. Watson used a wedge that he hit to 6 feet. He seemed to lock up the championship on the 13th, where he sank a 39-foot putt for eagle, his longest made putt of the tournament. His approach at 14 ended up 13-feet right of the pin, but his birdie putt ended up on the front lip of the cup. “I was hoping nobody else would birdie, but Paul Casey decided he wanted to birdie some holes to make it interesting,” Watson said. Casey began the day tied for fourth, but moved up quickly. His second shot at the 431-yard third hole bounced once from 126 yards out and went straight into the hole for an eagle. He also made a 64-footer for birdie on the par-3 eighth hole. He made a 6-foot birdie putt on 16, and a 15-footer on 17 to stay in contention. Watson lost his lead after hitting his approach on 17 to the right of the hole behind two bunkers. Both made par on the first playoff hole. But on the second, Watson’s tee shot when down the middle, and Casey found bunkers on his first two shots. “It does remind me of 2010, where coming down the stretch I had to hit some good shots and I didn’t,” Watson said. “I wish it was a lot easier, but a victory is a victory.”

Blue Jays 3 Rangers 2 TORONTO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Roberto Osuna relishes those high-pressure save situations. So when the Toronto Blue Jays rookie â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and newly minted closer â&#x20AC;&#x201D; gave up a leadoff double in the ninth inning of Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 3-2 win against the Texas Rangers, it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even faze him. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to be honest â&#x20AC;&#x201D; nothing,â&#x20AC;? Osuna said when asked what went through his mind after issuing the double to Rougned Odor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What I thought was â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to make better pitchesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ... I just focused on the game.â&#x20AC;? Osuna did just that, getting two fly outs before closing it out with a three-pitch strikeout to Mitch Moreland for the second save of his career. The 20-year-old right-hander came into the game with two out and two on in the eighth after Steve Delabar gave up a leadoff double and walk, and promptly struck out Shin-Soo Choo on three straight pitches to end the inning. Osuna credits some of his success to his changeup, a pitch that catcher Russell Martin urged him to throw more during spring training. On Sunday, he used an 83 mile-per-hour changeup â&#x20AC;&#x201D; after two straight 97 mile-perhour fastballs â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to strike out Choo in the eighth, and turned to it again during Morelandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at-bat in the ninth. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the best pitch Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got right now and I tried to use that a little bit more, especially today,â&#x20AC;? Osuna said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They were looking for the fastball so I gave them the changeup.â&#x20AC;?

Travis extended the lead to 2-0 in the bottom of the fifth with an RBI double to left field that scored Ezequiel Carrera from first base. Reyes then drove in Travis with a sharp line-drive single to centre to make it 3-0.

Just being on the ice is what Nicklas Lidstrom cherished the most. The seven Norris Trophies as the best defenceman of his era and four Stanley Cups as a cornerstone of the Detroit Red Wings make him a mortal lock to be elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame on Monday in his first year of eligibility. But when Lidstrom looks back on his career, the 1,564 regularseason and 263 playoff games stand out. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are asking you how many games you played and how many you missed, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m very proud of that I played in so many games,â&#x20AC;? Lidstrom said in a phone interview from his home in Sweden. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t missed many games.â&#x20AC;? Lidstrom, who will likely be joined in the class of 2015 by former Red Wings teammate Sergei Fedorov and fellow dominant defenceman Chris Pronger, never missed more than 12 games in a season. He never missed more than six until he was 41 years old. Along the way, Lidstrom was the best. A rock on the Red Wingsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; blue line from his Calder Trophy-finalist rookie season in 1991-92 through 2011-12, he scored 264 goals and added 878 assists for 1,142 points. Only five defencemen recorded more: Ray Bourque, Paul Coffey, Al MacInnis, Phil Housley and Larry Murphy. All but Housley are already enshrined in the Hall of Fame, and the American blue-line leader is another strong candidate. Lidstrom never thought about the Hall of Fame when he was playing. He heard plenty of buzz last year when Peter Forsberg became the third Swedish player to be inducted and started considering it more then. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re dreaming of (is) being on the ice when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re raising the Cup and being part of the celebration,â&#x20AC;? Lidstrom said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re so focused on playing, and you want to win that next game and you want to win that Cup again.â&#x20AC;? Lidstrom called the first Cup in 1997 very special, and the Red Wings won it again in 1998. When they won in 2002, Lidstrom became the first European player to capture the Conn Smythe Trophy as playoff MVP. His final championship in 2008 brought more history, as Lidstrom became the first European captain to hoist the Stanley Cup. The 2002 Red Wings hold a special place in Lidstromâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s memory because of how stacked they were. Beyond Detroitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s multiple-Cup core of Lidstrom, captain Steve Yzerman, Fedorov and Igor Larionov, that team had Hall of Famers Brendan Shanahan, Luc Robitaille, Brett Hull, Chris Chelios and Dominik Hasek. Lidstrom will be the eighth player from that team to make the Hall, and Fedorov the ninth. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It really shows what great of a team we had back in â&#x20AC;&#x2122;02 and what Scotty (Bowman) could accomplish with a group like that,â&#x20AC;? Lidstrom said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And we played as a team when it mattered, too.â&#x20AC;? A lot of that was Lidstrom, the stable presence on the blue line who earned praise from former defenceman Sergei Zubov as â&#x20AC;&#x153;one of the greatest athletesâ&#x20AC;? he played against. As much as Lidstrom prided himself on his durability and consistency, Zubov appreciated when Lidstrom couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be noticed because he rarely did anything wrong.

Story and photos by Ashli Barrett/Advocate Staff The sound of bagpipes filled the air early Saturday morning as Red Deerians immersed themselves in a world of Scottish culture at the 68th Annual Red Deer Highland Games. The festival, which took place at the Red Deer Titans Rugby Park, has become one of the most anticipated summer events in the region since it was first held in 1947. With a variety of activities, entertainment and food, it comes as no surprise; there was a little something for everyone in the family. The Piping, Drumming, and Bands competition was one of the biggest attractions of the festival. Seven different pipe bands from across the province performed, with many members also competing in the individual and group categories. Highland dancing was also popular. Dancers performed a variety of different dances, including the Scottish Lilt, Irish Jig and the Highland Fling. Athletic competitions, dubbed â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;heavy eventsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, ran throughout the day, showcasing the immense strength of both men and women alike. Open stone, throwing hammers, and tossing the caber were just some of the events that took place, with participants hailing from across North America. Children tested their swordsmanship against local medieval battle group KnightHaven. Attendees of all ages took in cannonry and gunmanship demonstrations by the Cannoneers and the 78th Fraser Highlanders. Vendors sold a variety of goods and sweets, introducing locals to another aspect of Scottish and Celtic culture.

Spectre of capital controls loom ECB REFUSES TO INCREASE CREDIT LIFELINE FOR GREEK BANKS BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ATHENS, Greece — The European Central Bank refused to increase emergency credit to Greek banks on Sunday, a day after the government threw Greece’s bailout negotiations into turmoil by calling a referendum on creditors’ financial proposals. The central bank’s decision left Greek banks under increasing pressure and raised more questions about Greece’s financial future and continued membership in the 19-nation shared euro currency. The spectre of financial controls being put on Greek withdrawals to stop its banks from hemorrhaging funds loomed as an immediate possibility — or the chance that Greek banks might not even open Monday. Anxious Greeks lined up at ATMs all weekend, draining deposits away. One ATM line in central Athens was a block long Sunday. Those fears are driven by the fact Greece’s international bailout runs out Tuesday, after which the remaining 7.2 billion euros ($8 billion) in the fund will no longer be available. Without a last bailout loan, it’s unclear whether Greece will be able to repay the 1.6 billion euros ($1.8 billion) due to the International Monetary Fund on Tuesday. Greece’s European partners, surprised and angered by Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras’ referendum call, said they would not accept an extension of the current bailout until Sunday’s popular vote on the demands creditors are making of Greece to get the bailout loan. Further negotiations are, for the time being, dead. Some European officials called for renewed efforts by both sides. “We don’t know — none of us — the consequences of an exit from the euro zone, either on the political or economic front. We must do everything so that Greece stays in the eurozone,” French Prime Minister Manuel Valls told France’s i-Tele TV on Sunday. “But doing everything, that means respecting Greece and democracy, but it’s also about respecting European rules. So Greece needs to come back to the negotiating table,” he said. Without an increase in emergency liquidity for Greek banks, which currently stands at just under 90 billion euros ($100 billion), Greece’s four major banks could soon run out of cash and be forced to implement capital controls. Those restrictions could keep Greek banks functioning — but they would mean a deepening of the financial crisis and could take Greece a step closer to leaving the euro. The ECB said it could reconsider its decision on credit levels. “We continue to work closely with the Bank of

BRIEF China cuts rates for 4th time in 7 months, eases lending to ag and small biz, to boost economy BEIJING — China’s central bank announced Saturday the fourth round of interest cuts in seven months and lower deposit-reserve ratios for some banks to lend to small and rural businesses, as Beijing tries to shore up the country’s sluggish economy. The announcement for the world’s second-largest economy also followed a nearly 20 per cent drop in China’s stock market over the past two weeks. The People’s Bank of China said it would cut the rate on a one-year loan by commercial banks by 0.25 percentage point to 4.85 per cent. The interest rate paid on a one-year deposit would be lowered by 0.25 point to 2 per cent. Rates were cut on Nov. 22, March 1 and then May 11. The new rates take effect Sunday. The central bank also said it would lower the deposit-reserve ratios by 50 points for some banks that are lending to small businesses and agriculture-related businesses, a move that would ease lending for the private sector by cutting the amount of reserves the banks are required to hold. “The cuts will support the adjustment of economic structure, support the real economy, and lower financing costs,” said Yao Yudong, director for the People’s Bank Finance Research Institute, in an interview by the state broadcaster China Central Television. “The prudent monetary policy remains unchanged,” Yao said. The state-owned banking industry lends mostly to state companies, so the new measure is expected to inject more credit into rural and small businesses.

Members of left wing parties shout slogans behind a burning European Union flag during an anti-EU protest in the northern Greek port city of Thessaloniki, Sunday. Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras says the Bank of Greece has recommended that banks remain closed and restrictions be imposed on transactions, after the European Central Bank didn’t increase the amount of emergency liquidity the lenders can access from the central bank. Greece and we strongly endorse the commitment of member states in pledging to take action to address the fragilities of euro-area economies,” ECB chief Mario Draghi said. Yannis Stournaras, governor of the Bank of Greece, said the bank would “take all measures necessary to ensure financial stability for Greek citizens in these difficult circumstances.” The Greek finance ministry said the country’s financial stability council, the Systemic Risk Board, would meet Sunday afternoon to discuss the situation. The board is a seven-member body that includes the finance minister, the central bank governor and the heads of the Greek banks association, the capital markets commission and the financial

stability fund. Greek Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis tweeted that the government “opposes the very concept” of capital controls within a monetary union. He also suggested his country might not pay the money it owes to the IMF on Tuesday. Varoufakis refused to reply to a direct question on the IMF payment. Instead, he told BBC radio that the ECB should pay the money to the IMF out of the profits it made on Greek bonds in 2014, an idea he called “a very sensible transfer.” “We are owed money by one part of the troika and we owe money to another part of the troika? Why don’t they sort themselves out and transfer money from one pocket ... to the other?” Varoufakis said.

Ontario brings in new rules for debt collection BY THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA — New rules in Ontario to better protect consumers from unscrupulous debt settlement companies come into force this week, but bankruptcy trustees says those in financial trouble seeking help still need to be cautious. Trustee Doug Hoyes says unscrupulous companies that were taking advantages of borrowers in trouble have already closed up shop in anticipation of the new rules taking effect. However, he says the new regulations set up a possible conflict of interest for collection agencies that will also be able to offer debt settlement services. “It certainly opens the door for a different form of collection activity,” said Hoyes, co-founder of bankruptcy trustee firm Hoyes, Michalos & Associates Inc. “You’re getting a phone call to collect your cellphone bill, and now you feel a lot of pressure because all of a sudden this guy on the phone also says you can deal with your other debts as well. What are you going to do?” Ontario announced in 2013 that it would join provinces like Alberta, Manitoba and Nova Scotia in making changes to the rules amid increasing complaints about debt settlement companies including unclear or misleading contracts, high fees and a failure to

reduce debts as promised. The new rules that take effect Wednesday will not impact bankruptcy trustees who are already regulated by Ottawa and covered by federal rules that govern their conduct and what they can charge. The new Collection and Debt Settlement Services Act replaces the Collection Agencies Act. The rules put an end to upfront payments charged by debt settlement services other than a nominal amount and they place limits on the amount that can be charged. Debtors also get a 10-day cooling off period during which they can cancel a debt settlement services contract with no reason. However, Andre Bolduc, a bankruptcy trustee with BDO Canada, says the provincially regulated debt settlement companies aren’t a replacement for federally regulated trustees. “It is important for consumers to still do their due diligence, still do their homework, to do their research and make sure when they do get help that they get help from qualified individuals,” he said. Trustees are obligated to review all the possible options for clients up to and including a bankruptcy filing. Bolduc said many of the clients he’s seen in recent years first tried to get help from a debt settlement company before dealing with him.

Tax refund can be a mixed blessing Each year, thousands of Canadian taxpayers get a tax rebate from the government. While getting a rebate may seem like a late Christmas present from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), it actually can be the result of some rather poor tax planning. A couple of recent polls have found that many Canadians who were expecting a refund this year planned to use it to either pay down debt or pay bills. TALBOT According to CIBC, 58 per BOGGS cent of Canadians expected a tax refund this year. Twenty one per cent planned to reduce their high-interest debt by making a credit card or loan payment, 19 per cent were either going to put it aside or hadn’t decided, 18 per cent intended to pay for day to day expenses such as bills and groceries and 13 per cent planned to save or invest the money. Another study by BMO Nesbitt Burns found that among the 97 per cent of Millennials who expected a tax refund 37 per cent planned to use the money to pay bills and/or reduce debt. Thirty three per cent planned to either save or

MONEYWISE

invest the refund and 14 per cent planned to use it to pay down their mortgage. “It is good to see that Canadians are committed to paying off their high-interest debt as quickly as possible, but our poll shows that Canadians still aren’t putting enough time and effort into tax planning,” says Jamie Golombek, Managing Director of Estate Planning with CIBC. ”Contrary to popular belief, getting a tax refund isn’t really a windfall. After all, what you’ve essentially done is loan your hard-earned money to the government, interest free, for a year or more.” A tax refund typically occurs when the amount of tax owing on your return is less than the amount of tax withheld from your income during the year, Golombek explains. Employment income is the most common type of income from which tax is deducted at source and therefore employees are most often the tax filers who get significant refunds each year. There are two main ways employees can reduce their tax at source. The first is by making sure that the credits your employer uses to calculate your payroll deductions are up to date. The TD1 personal tax credit return sets out the personal tax credits you intend to claim when filing your tax return and helps determine how much tax is deducted each pay period, Golombek explains. If your personal tax credits such as the spouse or common law partner credit, the disability credit or

credit for tuition have changed since you were hired you should re-submit the form so that taxes withheld at source can be adjusted for the tax credits beyond the basic personal exemption. You must submit both federal and provincial TD1 forms, which can be obtained on the CRA web site. You also can apply to get your tax refund paid throughout the year on every pay cheque instead of waiting until after your return is filed by completing the T1213 request to reduce tax deductions at source form. On the form you indicate your regular RRSP contributions and other deductions and credits to be taken into account when your employer calculates the tax that will be withheld from your pay. The form is sent to your local CRA tax office for approval and once it is approved the CRA will send you a letter of authority which you give to your employer allowing them to reduce your tax at source. “It’s important to consider your financial goals when deciding what to do with your tax refund,” Golombek says. “But it’s even better to eliminate that tax refund altogether and use the taxes saved throughout the year to your benefit.” Talbot Boggs is a Toronto-based business communications professional who has worked with national news organizations, magazines and corporations in the finance, retail, manufacturing and other industrial sectors.

A bet on Nascar with high stakes for godfather of ethanol BY MARIO PARKER SPECIAL TO THE ADVOCATE

refiners’ worries that the new blend might impede engine performance or even cause engine damage. Broin sees that as bunk -- and says his promotional deal with NASCAR, which will run through 2019, shows E-15 is safe. As for NASCAR, “We wanted to be a greener sport across all platforms,” says Steve O’Donnell, NASCAR’s senior vice president. The race cars, meanwhile, run fine on E-15 -- actually gaining horsepower, he says. Broin, the trade group and NASCAR all declined to say what the sponsorship costs. On its racing circuits website, NASCAR prices a primary sponsorship at as much as $35 million per season. If Broin sounds utterly missionary about ethanol, it’s in his roots. His father, Lowell, got the idea to build a 250,000- gallon per year plant on his Minnesota farm in the early 80’s after reading a magazine story on the nascent biofuels movement. Only a few years before, President Jimmy Carter, citing lingering concerns over gasoline shortages caused by the Arab oil embargo, had signed legislation awarding generous tax incentives for the cornbased fuel. Over the past two decades, Broin has grown Poet, the Sioux Falls, South Dakota-based company, to 27 plants with a capacity of 1.7 billion gallons and revenues of $7 billion last year. “From that one little plant on the farm we grew to five percent of the corn crop,” Broin says. “It’s a real American success story.” Now, though, ethanol has a new and potent enemy. The shale revolution -- employing hydraulic fracturing or fracking -- helped the U.S. last year pump more oil than at any time since 1983, vastly reducing fears of the shortages that started the ethanol boom in the first place. Ethanol’s discount to U.S. gasoline futures has averaged about 28 cents so far this year, less than half the average of about 66 cents last year, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. That may also help to explain why the EPA is dialing back those ethanol targets. Mild-mannered most of the time, Broin, who stepped down as Poet’s CEO in 2012 to focus on ethanol advocacy and philanthropic efforts, gets riled up about the reductions. Farmers are sitting on a big corn crop, plant capacity is more than adequate, yet some plants have already been idled. “It was a blow to the industry,” says Broin. “They really pulled the rug out from under us.” Broin’s other problem is that while consumers may abide ethanol-blended gasoline nobody seems to love it. Entire boating websites are given over to a debate about whether ethanol damages outboard motors. (Ethanol defenders blame the oil industry for spreading a lot of ethanol-is-damaging stories.) Still, a short walk around Michigan International shows the NASCAR campaign isn’t changing all inds. Mike Meyer, a 57-year-old Detroit grocery-store loading- dock worker, is a 30-year NASCAR fan. In between drags of his Pall Mall Menthol 100’s, he says he won’t put ethanol-blended gas in his 1999 Honda motorcycle, seeking out unblended regular instead.

Jeff Broin’s silhouette shines in the glossy hood of the modified grass-green Chevrolet SS. It’s moments before the start of NASCAR’s Quicken Loans 400 at Michigan International Speedway in Brooklyn, Michigan, and Broin is having a quick chat with young driver Austin Dillon. A racing fan for a decade, Broin is now a NASCAR sponsor. And what really has him revved up is what’s splashed in bold white letters across the hood of Dillon’s racer and the stuff in its fuel tank: “E-15,” spelled out more precisely as “15% Ethanol.” The 49-year-old Broin, founder of Poet LLC, the biggest U.S. ethanol producer, is the architect of a promotion by which NASCAR uses gasoline mixed with 15 percent concentrations of the corn-based fuel to power its $150,000 supercars. He and the trade group American Ethanol have been counting on that sales job to help sway public opinion -- a task getting harder every day. “It’s just a great way to show how our product performs under some of the harshest conditions on the planet,” says Broin above the din of revving engines and amidst the singular smell of race day -- the aroma of barbecue pits, beer, gasoline and motor oil all mixing on the humid air. The problem is that if the sponsorship has raised the profile of ethanol among race fans, it’s done little to quiet a decade-old debate about whether ethanol is a renewable-fuels godsend or a governmentsubsidized mistake. Ethanol’s enemies cross political lines. Many conservative outfits see ethanol requirements as an insult to free-market energy thinking. Liberal-leaning green groups say ethanol production encourages farming on marginal lands, increases food prices for the poor by raising commodity prices and actually takes more energy to make than it produces. They seem to be making headway. Only last month, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, which administers the ethanol program, proposed a sharp cutback in ethanol mandates that were expanded by Congress in 2007. This year, refiners will blend 13.4 billion gallons of ethanol, 1.6 billion less than the 2007 targets and two billion gallons short of the 15.4 billion the U.S.’s 212 plants have capacity to produce. In Broin’s view, such setbacks are precisely why he and ethanol’s advocates have to take the marketing offensive. “What I know about ethanol is that it’s not only the cleanest fuel on the planet earth,” says Broin. “It’s the only liquid transportation fuel that’s in sync with the environment.” Which is certainly the message he has come to spread on this sultry June day at the Michigan speedway. A lanky, fit, sandy-haired man with piercing blue eyes and a bushy brown mustache, he weaves through the pre-race crowds, a group of ethanol-industry supporters in tow, talking up what he sees as the wonders of the fuel that he’s become synonymous with -- and which has made his family rich. In his starched khakis and black polo shirt, “American Ethanol” stitched across the pocket, Broin stays relentlessly on point. Ethanol’s real enemy first appeared in 2008 when gasoline demand started to slow, he says. The feds at the time only allowed a 10 percent mixture of ethanol for most vehicles. One way to get around the slowdown was to get higherblend ethanol approved. That’s when Broin formed Growth Energy -- which he calls “a more aggressive voice for renewable fuels and agriculture” and one that “could change the argument” in favor of 15 percent ethanol. Growth Energy filed a waiver with the EPA in 2009 to get the 15 percent mixture approved and the EPA GREAT obliged in 2011. However, E-15’s rollout has been limited so far because of

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO — Here are five things to look for in Canadian business this week: Indigo meeting: Indigo Books & Music shareholders get together in Toronto for the company’s annual meeting on Monday. The book, gift and specialty toy retailer recorded net losses of nearly $14 million in its latest quarter, but its lifestyle, paper and toys business experienced double-digit growth. The economy: Statistics Canada releases data on economic growth for April on Tuesday. Economists will be scrutinizing the gross domestic product numbers for signs of how the second quarter is shaping up after the economy contracted in the first three months of the year. Auto sales: Canadian automakers report June sales figures on Thursday. A recent report from the Conference

Board of Canada says automakers are on track to reap their highest profits in more than a decade this year, thanks to the weaker loonie and a strong demand for vehicles. Alberta’s minimum wage: The province’s NDP government is expected to announce details next week of its promise to hike minimum wage from $10.20 to $15 by 2018. Small businesses have called on the government to keep in mind the fragile economy, exacerbated by low oil prices, before forging ahead with the plan. SNC-Lavalin corruption case: Officials with SNC-Lavalin are expected in court Friday in Montreal after the RCMP laid fraud and corruption charges against the engineering firm and two of its subsidiaries. Investigators allege the company paid nearly $47.7 million to public officials in Libya to influence government decisions. SNC-Lavalin has said it will plead not guilty.

Germany’s wind autobahn irks locals deploring landscape blot BY STEFAN NICOLA, TINO ANDRESEN AND WEIXIN ZHA SPECIAL TO THE ADVOCATE Chancellor Angela Merkel’s plan to replace nuclear power plants across Germany with renewables requires an energy superhighway that will run over Valerie Grill’s back yard. The 43-year-old mother of two is one of thousands of citizens objecting to the 21 billion-euro ($23 billion) program to erect high-voltage electricity lines linking offshore wind farms in the North Sea to factories in the south. It includes a 500-mile cable from Wilster on the north coast to Grafenrheinfeld in Bavaria, known as Suedlink. “I’m used to power lines near our town,” said Grill, pointing to 40-meter (131 feet) high masts visible from her farmhouse in the western town of Muenchehagen near Hanover. “But the Suedlink towers will be almost double in height and surround our town from three sides. You’ll always see them, no matter where you are, and we don’t know anything about the health implications. It’s just too much.” As EON prepares to shut its 1.3-gigawatt nuclear plant in Grafenrheinfeld on Saturday, the clock is ticking for Germany to expand the grid to add more wind and solar power before authorities take the country’s remaining eight reactors offline by 2022. It’s the first closure since Germany shuttered eight atomic plants in the wake of the March 2011 disaster in Fukushima that prompted Merkel’s decision to abandon nuclear energy. Grill and fellow protesters are threatening to hold up the expansion, casting doubt about whether Germany can maintain electricity supplies without turning to the fossil fuels blamed for global warming. “The government has underestimated the grid issue,” said Patrick Graichen, head of Agora Energiewende, a Berlin-based research organization that monitors and conducts regular studies on the energy shift. TenneT TSO and EnBW Energie Baden-Wuerttemberg’s TransnetBW, the companies overseeing the project, say the power highway is vital because southern Germany will have to import about one-third of its electricity by 2023 as reactors close and power generation shifts to wind farms in the north.

‘THIS HUGE LINES IS BUILT BY LOBBYISTS TO SELL ELECTRICITY AND WE DON’T NEED IT TO KEEP THE LIGHTS ON.’ — VALERIE GRILL SUEDLINK PROTESTER

“Expanding the grid is the biggest bottleneck in the energy shift,” said Jochen Homann, who heads the Bundesnetzagentur regulator overseeing the expansion. “We’re already experiencing delays.” The agency fielded about 30,000 complaints from citizens, local authorities and protest groups in the three months through mid-May, the Bundesnetzagentur said. Projects like the reconstruction of the central station of the southern city of Stuttgart to create a European rail hub or the dredging of the River Elbe in Hamburg to allow fully loaded container ships into the port at low tides show how public opposition has thwarted major infrastructure plans in Germany in recent years, delaying work and adding to costs. Grill has attracted more than 70 supporters since starting her campaign in April. Dozens of similar action groups have mushroomed along the Suedlink route. “This huge line is built by lobbyists to sell electricity and we don’t need it to keep the lights on,” she said. The companies and Economy Minister Sigmar Gabriel have pledged to build parts of the line underground to ease local concerns. The row is also proving contentious for Merkel’s coalition government, of which Gabriel is the vice chancellor. Horst Seehofer, the prime minister of Bavaria and a powerful Merkel ally, has revoked his support for the grid project amid protests from Bavarian voters. In response, Gabriel threatened to divide Germany into two price zones that would force companies in Bavaria, including BMW and Siemens, and other parts of the south to pay more for electricity than their northern counterparts. The Bundesnetzagentur estimates that more cables will be placed underground as the technology gets cheaper, and that masts will probably end up shorter than initially anticipated.

National bank will provide stem cells CORD-BLOOD BANK WILL TREAT HOST OF DISEASES BY THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO - Canadian Blood Services officially launched a national public cord-blood bank Thursday, with the goal of collecting and preserving samples that reflect the country’s broad ethnic diversity. The bank, which will draw donated newborn cord-blood samples from five hospitals in Vancouver, Edmonton, Ottawa and Brampton, Ont., was set up to provide a source of stem cells for Canadians across the country. Two facilities - one in Edmonton and the other in Ottawa - will test, process and freeze individual units of cord blood, which can be stored indefinitely. Canadian Blood Services has raised $12.5 million of the $48-million cost of running the program for the next eight years, with provincial and territorial governments (excluding Quebec, which has its own cord blood bank) picking up the balance. Placental and umbilical cord blood are rich sources of blood-forming stem cells that can be used in the treatment of more than 80 diseases and disorders, including cancers like leukemia and lymphoma. “Every day here in Canada, we have about 1,000 people who are looking for a stem cell transplant,” Heidi Elmoazzen, director of the bank, said from Ottawa. About 25 per cent find a suitable donor among family members. But 75 per cent must look for an unrelated adult donor whose bone marrow or peripheral blood provide a close tissue match

to prevent rejection. The majority of donors on these adult registries are Caucasian, so finding a match can be extremely challenging for people of certain ethnicities, said Elmoazzen. “We have a lot of ethnic groups here in Canada that you don’t find in the rest of the world, such as our First Nations, Metis and Inuit populations,” she said. “And then we also have a lot of mixed marriages here in Canada, so you get a lot of unique ethnicity mixes.” Patients of mixed race, Caribbean black, African or Aboriginal descent “are very, very hard to match,” she said. Two of the hospitals, in particular - BC Women’s in Vancouver and William Osler Health System’s Brampton Civic Hospital northwest of Toronto are on track to change that because of the populations they serve. Joanne Flewwelling, executive vicepresident of clinical services for William Osler, said the majority of the patients served by the hospital are of Asian or South Asian descent. “That is what made us so attractive to Canadian Blood Services, because there is a challenge in general of having stem cells matched for patients, particularly for those that come from diverse ethnic backgrounds,” she said. Of the 900 cord blood samples donated by new mothers to date at the Brampton, Ont., hospital, about 75 per cent came from babies of non-Caucasian descent. Dr. Jan Christilaw, president of BC Women’s Hospital, said Vancouver and nearby areas are home to people of

so the donations of their newborns’ cord blood would enrich the bank and ultimately help other indigenous Canadians in need of a stem-cell transplant. B.C. is also home to populations of Sikhs and other South Asians, Vietnamese, Japanese and Filipinos.

For some when you have to go, you have to go CAMPAIGN TO OPEN BATHROOMS TO CROHN’S, COLITIS PATIENTS LAUNCHED TORONTO — If you have Crohn’s disease or colitis, when you’ve got to go to the bathroom, you’ve really got to go. For people with one of these two related diseases, that panic-inducing urgency can hit as many as 20 times a day, making finding the nearest unlocked washroom their No. 1 priority. A new campaign spearheaded by Crohn’s and Colitis Canada aims to open up doors that are often locked or off limits to all but customers of a restaurant, or the tenants of an office building. The campaign, directed at business owners and municipalities, is aptly called GoHere. Jennifer Wakeford is an event planner in Calgary who has been living with Crohn’s for the past 12 years. She knows firsthand how badly needed this program is. “Unlike your average individual, there’s no notice.... I don’t have a lot of time to pick a place to go or go somewhere where I’m comfortable. Often times I just need to find the closest washroom that I can get into right away,” explains Wakeford, 33. That can involve pleading with businesses to let her have access to locked bathrooms. The fact that people with Crohn’s and colitis don’t look sick can add to the awkwardness of the situation. “I have to explain myself.... Begging is not necessarily the right term. But

you have to over-share in order to gain access,” Wakeford says. Canada has the highest rate of people with Crohn’s and colitis in the world; it’s estimated a quarter million Canadians live with one of these conditions. “This is such an important thing for us to do,” Mina Mawani, president and CEO of Crohn’s and Colitis Canada, says of the GoHere program. Mawani was in Calgary on Thursday to launch the campaign with Mayor Naheed Nenshi, who announced municipal buildings will take part. Work is underway to expand the program to the Ontario cities of Barrie, Mississauga and Ottawa. “I expect many more mayors, many more provinces to jump on the bandwagon,” Mawani says. Crohn’s and colitis are auto-immune diseases, conditions brought on when the body’s immune system attacks itself. With these two, the immune system turns on the tissues of the colon (colitis) or any part of the gastrointestinal system (Crohn’s). People who suffer from these diseases can experience intense abdominal pain, bleeding and frequent diarrhea. There are drugs that can generally put the conditions into remission, gastroenterologist Dr. Gil Kaplan explains. But they don’t work for everyone. And even people for whom they normally work can experience “flares” — periods when their disease is not controlled.

Open washrooms can be rarities in cities these days. Many restaurants, for instance, post signs that state washroom access is restricted to paying customers.

The stress of knowing they may not be able to find an open bathroom when they need it forces some people with Crohn’s or colitis to restrict their movements.

Yes bassist Squire dies at 67 BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Photo by THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Trey Anastasio, from left, Phil Lesh, Mickey Hart, Bob Weir perform at Grateful Dead Fare Thee Well Show at Levi’s Stadium on Saturday, in Santa Clara, Calif.

Grateful Dead goodbye starts with parking lot busts, serious stage jams SANTA CLARA, Calif. — The undercover cops didn’t help the vibe, most of all for Moondog. They wore jeans and t-shirts and carried backpacks that made them look almost like everybody else, except not really. They wouldn’t talk to me as they scooped up the spoils of the copyright shakedown — pins and t-shirts — and Moondog, growing uglier by the second as he stood helplessly next to his camper, cursed out the Dead, mocked Bobby and Phil Lesh, then pledged to return next time with bags of heroin decorated with Jerry’s face. Ouch. It marked a depressing start to the day, but thankfully, only a start. This isn’t 1978. And there’s money to be made and money to be protected. That clock started ticking Saturday night when the Grateful Dead, or the Grateful Dead without Jerry, opened the first of five farewell shows that will wrap July 5 in Chicago. “I don’t know,” Michael “Spench” French said when I asked him if he’s going to be like everybody else, complaining about ticket prices and the cops and Trey, and he smiled and took a sip of his Sierra Nevada. “It’s a little bit weird, but it’s better than nothing.” Better than nothing. Inside Levi, the mood brightened. Thousands entering were given a rose, a nice touch. “Look at the stage, bro,” Brad Cacciatore, 31, shouted to his buddy, catching a glimpse as they walked through the concourse searching for a craft beer. That stage was big and the lights were killer and you’re here, even

though you never saw the Dead with Jerry, even though you’ve paid $120 on StubHub for a $59 ticket that lands you behind the stage, and you’re fine with that. “This is amazing,” Cacciatore said. “I’m a part of history.” Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, Bill Kreutzmann and Mickey Hart won’t play together again, though three of them might head out with John Mayer, if the jamband rumor mill is right. For this, they’ve recruited Phish’s Trey Anastasio and pianist Bruce Hornsby and are a hotter ticket than Taylor Swift. The parking lots open at 3, the set opens just after 7:15. They start with a building version of Truckin’ and everybody in the crowd raises their arms at the famous line, “what a long, strange trip it’s been,” because everything somehow weighs more now when the end is near. As the first set wraps, a rainbow appears, stretching over the stage. It is majestic and glowing and not part of the light show. (Billboard reports otherwise, though that’s hard to believe.) We see Bill Walton, Hall of Fame center and Deadhead, raise his arms, smile and hit a beach ball. We see a dude, standing next to me, lighting a spliff that manages to last through at least seven minutes of What’s Become of the Baby and we spot shirtless guy, stage left, stopping his dance to occasionally juggle three hacky sacks. The music flows. They’ve built this setlist to make us forget the ‘80s. No Touch of Grey or Hell in a Bucket. Instead, we get Alligator and The Eleven and Morning Dew. And Kate Monroe, sitting next to me, hears another aging nugget starting up free-will donation will be taken at the door. Coffee and tea will be provided by Cafe Noir.

Sun K roll into Red Deer next week

Peavoy to play some classical compositions at the Snell Works by Bach, Beethoven and Rachmaninov will be on the program at this week’s Thursdays at the Snell concert. Red Deer pianist Matthew Peavoy will perform some weighty and entertaining compositions by the three composers from 12:15 to 1 p.m. in the Snell Auditorium, downstairs at the Red Deer Public Library. There is no admission charge, but a

Folk ‘n’ rollers Sun K will stop in Red Deer next week during their Western Skies Tour. The acclaimed five-piece group from Toronto performs on Monday, July 6, at Fratters Speakeasy. Sun K’s debut album, Northern Lies, is described as a gritty blend of retro rock, blues and folk. According to Exclaim! Music, lead singer Kristian Montano’s husky baritone falls somewhere between Lou Reed’s and Julian Casablancas’ of The Stokes, while his guitar playing is “honed through the

and shouts, “Cream Puff War.” Just 33, she came from Oregon and knew all the songs, never even considered grumbling, and smiled and looked skyward when that rainbow appeared. “I’m so grateful, so happy to experience this,” she said. “So happy. It’s really a special week.” It feels special. Classic photos of the Dead line the causeways. The hospitality suite is open to many fans who didn’t expect they’d be in the posh environs. The band is sharp, rehearsed. The first set is marked by shorter songs. The second set is where the jams fly. Dark Star for half an hour, Drums, The Eleven — with the William Tell bridge and Bob Weir flubbing a line and, charmingly, winding up his hand for a perfectly executed do-over. Back in the press room, Joel Selvin, the legendary former San Francisco Chronicle writer, brought back for one night to cover the band he’s known for decades, admits the show is going better than he thought. (Earlier in the night, when the subject of Garcia came up, Joel told me: “It’s not a championship team. They lost their starting quarterback.”) “St. Stephen,” he says, was “a gas.” The night’s closer is, too. “Driving that train, high on cocaine.” That’s Hornsby singing, not Jerry. And Hornsby sounds good, raspier than usual, closing out a night that seemed to accomplish everything the band needed to do. They came, they packed the stadium and may have even caught a little fire during Viola Lee Blues. Not Cornell ‘77 fire, but something. Neil Young songbook.” This young group could be going places beyond this tour to B.C. Sun K has been called possibly Canada’s next big rock act. For more information about the show, please call 403-356-0033.

Praise in the Park set for Sunday Fellowship and music are promised at the free Praise in the Park concert Sunday (July 5) at Bower Ponds.

BY GEOFF EDGERS SPECIAL TO THE ADVOCATE

NEW YORK — Chris Squire, the bassist and co-founder of the progressive rock band Yes who recently announced he had leukemia, has died, according to a statement from his band members on Sunday. He was 67. The band posted a statement on its Facebook page saying Squire “peacefully passed away” Saturday in Phoenix, where he lived. No more details about the death were provided. Squire announced last month that he had acute erythroid leukemia, a rare form of acute myeloid leukemia. He was receiving treatment before he died. “It’s with the heaviest of hearts and unbearable sadness that we must inform you of the passing of our dear friend and Yes co-founder, Chris Squire,” said the statement from Alan White, Steve Howe, Jon Davison and Geoff Downes. Squire was born on March 4, 1948, in London. He co-founded the band with its former lead singer, Jon Anderson, and the group released its self-titled debut album in 1969. Squire was the only member to play on all of Yes’ albums. “For the entirety of Yes’ existence, Chris was the band’s linchpin and, in so many ways, the glue that held it together over all these years,” the band’s statement read. “Because of his phenomenal bassplaying prowess, Chris influenced countless bassists around the world, including many of today’s well-known artists.” Squire, a talented and dominant bass guitarist, was one of the leaders of progressive rock in the 1970s. His website says he was a choirboy in his youth, which set the foundation for his musical talents. He released his solo debut, Fish Out of Water, in 1975, and also played in the short-lived supergroup XYZ (eXYes-Zeppelin), which included Jimmy Page. Yes released the album Heaven & Earth last year. The Grammy-winning band’s hits include Roundabout and Owner of a Lonely Heart,”which became a No. 1 hit on the Billboard pop charts in the 1980s. The group will launch a U.S. tour with Toto in August, when Billy Sherwood will fill in for Squire. Squire is survived by his wife, Scotland, and several children.

announcements Obituaries CALDER, Jim (J.C.) June 21, 1938 - June 19, 2015 It is with profound sadness that we announce that Jim (J.C.) Calder passed away on June 19, 2015, after a very brief but courageous battle with brain cancer. Jim was born on June 21, 1938, on the family farm near Rocanville, SK, to Alexander and Edith Calder. He was the seventh of eight children. Jim grew up on the farm and left home at 16 years of age. He worked various rig and driving jobs but was proud to have been on the crew that bored the pilot hole on “K1” for the Potash Corp of Saskatchewan near Esterhazy. Jim was living in Regina when he met his best friend and the love of his life, Marion Vennard. They were married on August 19, 1961, and in 1962, they moved to Calgary. It was in Calgary that Jim took his Machinist Apprenticeship and received his Machinist Journeyman Certificate with Red Seal in 1968. One year later he received his Millwright Journeyman Certificate. By this time, Jim and Marion had 3 daughtersValerie, Mitzi, and Shelley. His girls were the centre of his universe and he loved showing them how to fish, how to properly use machining and carpentry tools, target shoot, and the family went camping whenever they could. The family moved to Terrace, BC, in 1972 and were able to pursue even more of the outdoor activities that they all enjoyed. While in Terrace, Jim also received his Welding Journeyman Certificate. Jim, Marion, and the girls moved back to Alberta in 1977, living in Eckville for a number of years. As emptynesters, Jim and Marion moved to Red Deer in 1989, where Jim continued to work as a machinist. He was very well known for his machining expertise and loved to “talk shop” whenever he could. Jim retired in 2005, and he and Marion moved to Whitewood, SK, to enjoy their retirement. They moved back to Alberta in 2009 as all 3 daughters and their families still lived in Alberta and as Marion told everyone, “Jim misses his family too much and had to move back.” They settled in Daysland and lived there up until Jim’s passing. Jim is survived by his loving wife and best friend of 54 years, Marion; his daughters, Valerie (Nolan) Matthews, Mitzi (Fred) Anderson, and Shelley (Trent) Bureyko; his grandsons, Brady, Dacen, and Jayden. He is also survived by 2 sisters and 3 brothers; numerous nieces and nephews; and many, many friends. Jim was predeceased by his parents and 2 sisters. Jim was a man of integrity and honesty- he had a quiet strength about him. As his grandson Jayden said, “Papa was the type of man that more men should strive to be.” His sense of humor was always at the forefront-right up until the end, he loved to make his family laugh. His 3 grandsons were very special to him. He enjoyed every stage of them growing up but especially when they got older and he could engage them in wide ranging conversation topics such as politics, talking shop, world events, and Monty Python’s Holy Grail. A Celebration of Jim’s Life will be held on July 4, 2015, from 1:00 to 4:00 pm at the Daysland Community Hall located at the corner of 46 Street and 51 Avenue in Daysland. Come and share a story about Jim with everyone-casual dress. Memorial donations can be made to the Cross Cancer Institute, 11560 University Avenue, Edmonton, AB T6G 1Z2 or the Daysland Hospital, 5920 - 51 Avenue, Daysland, AB T0B 1A0. To send a condolence to the family, please visit www.burgarfuneralhome.com.

Gay pride events celebrate SC ruling MILLIONS ACROSS U.S. PARTY FOR LEGALIZATION OF SAME-SEX MARRIAGES BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SAN FRANCISCO — Hundreds of thousands of people on Sunday packed gay pride events across the U.S. from New York to San Francisco, with overall attendance expected in the millions for what amounted to a celebration of a freshly endorsed right to marry. In San Francisco, a parade that at times resembled a rainbow-colored dance party snaked through downtown. Cheerleaders, dancers and proud families of lesbians and gays swooped up Market Street as spectators 10 to 15 people lined both sides of the street. There were “Hooray for Gay” and “Love Won” signs. There were rainbow flags and knee socks, umbrellas and tutus. SF Pride Board President Gary Virginia said the exuberance was amplified given Friday’s U.S. Supreme Court ruling that same-sex couples can wed in all 50 states. Still, he said more needs to be done in housing and job discrimination in the United States and for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people around the world. “Today, we celebrate,” Virginia said. “Tomorrow, we get back to work.” Hundreds of thousands of people packed gay pride events from Chicago to New York City, Seattle to San Francisco, with overall attendance for events expected in the millions. In New York City, organizers expected about 22,000 people to march while in San Francisco, organizers put the number at 26,000. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo used newly granted powers to officiate at the wedding ceremony of a same-sex couple in Manhattan. It was held in front of the Stonewall Inn, where in 1969 gay bar patrons stood up to a police raid, launching the modern gay rights movement. State law did not allow Cuomo to

officiate at wedding ceremonies until last week. The authority to do so was granted as part of a slew of legislation passed days ago. Nikita Lowery, a 28-year-old resident of Chicago, said she decided to attend that city’s parade for the first time this year. “I feel like it’s a true celebration now,” she said. At gay pride parades in Paris and other cities outside the U.S. on Saturday, the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling was hailed by many as a watershed. “Soon in all countries we will be able to marry,” said Celine Schlewitz, a 25-year-old nurse taking part in the Paris parade. “Finally a freedom for everyone.” Street celebrations were boosted Saturday in Dublin, where Ireland mounted the biggest gay rights parade in the country’s history.

ed at the culmination of a weeklong gay rights festival in the Irish capital. While the mood was already high following Ireland’s referendum last month to legalize gay marriage — becoming the first nation to do so by popular vote — many marchers said the Supreme Court ruling provided a bonus reason to celebrate. In Turkey, police used water cannons to clear a rally Sunday in Istanbul. Between 100 and 200 marchers were chased away from Taksim Square after a police vehicle fired several jets of water to disperse the crowd. It wasn’t clear why the police intervened in the peaceful rally. The crowd regrouped a few blocks away. In San Francisco, police say a bystander was shot at a gay pride event at the city’s civic centre Saturday when several men got into an argument unrelated to the celebration. A 64-year-

Second escaped inmate shot, captured SECOND CONVICTED MURDERER IN NY PRISON BREAK IS APPREHENDED AFTER THREE WEEKS ON THE RUN

WORLD

BRIEFS

Tunisia launches nationwide manhunt for attack accomplices who provided weapons, logistics SOUSSE, Tunisia — The student who massacred holidaymakers on a Tunisian beach and at a swank resort hotel acted alone during the attack but had accomplices who supported him beforehand, an Interior Ministry official said Sunday. Police were searching nationwide for more suspects after the slaughter of at least 38 people in Sousse on Friday, in Tunisia’s deadliest ever such attack. The attacker’s father and three roommates were detained and being questioned in the capital, Tunis, Interior Ministry spokesman Mohamed Ali Aroui told The Associated Press. The attacker has been identified as Seifeddine Rezgui, a 24-year-old graduate of Tunisia’s Kairouan University where he had been living with the other students. The attack was claimed by the radical Islamic State group. “We are sure that others helped, but did not participate,” Aroui said. “They participated indirectly.” Investigators believe the suspected accomplices provided the Kalashnikov assault rifle to Rezgui and helped him get to the scene, Aroui said. Authorities have yet to suggest a motive for the carnage. A security official close to the investigation said the student frequented an “unofficial” mosque in the Tunisian holy city of Kairouan for the past two years. The official said a swimmer had found the attacker’s cellphone in the Mediterranean. The phone showed the attacker spoke with his father just before his assault, the official said on condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to speak publicly.

Hearse carrying body stolen in downtown Atlanta; the car and the body inside recovered nearby Atlanta police say a hearse with a body inside was stolen outside a hospital. Both were recovered a short time later. Atlanta police Officer Ralph Woolfolk said authorities believe the hearse was taken Sunday morning outside Grady Memorial Hospital in the city’s downtown area. WSB-TV reports that it appears the driver drove through the gates of the hospital morgue. Woolfolk tells The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that the suspect or suspects abandoned the hearse a few blocks from Grady, then stole a gold Ford Explorer and drove off in that vehicle. Police say they recovered the hearse on Auburn Avenue. CBS 46 reports that the body was also recovered. Police were still searching for suspects Sunday afternoon.

French police escort suspect in beheading to his home, seeking clues of travel abroad SAINT-PRIEST, France — Police investigators wearing masks escorted a man accused of a beheading to his home in southeastern France on Sunday, searching for a possible international link to the killing after he sent a photo of the victim to a contact in Syria, a security official said. Yassine Salhi, 35, was handcuffed and wearing jeans, a knee-length djellabah robe and a loose towel over his head when judicial police led him into his residence in the town of Saint-Priest, outside the city of Lyon. The official told The Associated Press that police were searching for Salhi’s passport, to determine if he had travelled abroad before Friday’s attack that authorities are calling France’s first deadly terror attack since a killing spree in the Paris area in January. Salhi, a truck deliveryman and father of three with a history of ties to Islamic extremists, admitted earlier to the killing of the manager of the transportation company that had employed Salhi since March, officials said. The official also said Salhi had sent a macabre “selfie” photo of himself and the victim to a man identified only as Younes, who allegedly has been in war-torn Syria since last year. Investigators have found no links to any international terror group. The suspect and police spent a little over an hour in Salhi’s home. It wasn’t immediately clear if police found what they were looking for.

Police escort ambulances from an area where law enforcement officers were searching for convicted murderer David Sweat, one of two convicted murderers who broke out of a maximum-security prison near the Canadian border, Sunday, in Constable, N.Y. The other inmate, Richard Matt, was shot three times in the head when he was confronted by authorities on Friday. A noise — perhaps a cough — ultimately did Matt in. A border patrol team discovered Matt, who was shot after failing to heed a command to raise his hands. He was shot three times in the head, according to an autopsy. A coroner who attended the autopsy said Matt was clean, well-fed and dressed for the elements at the time he was killed. A pair of prison workers has been charged in connection with the inmates’ escape.

MALONE, N.Y. — The second of two convicted murderers who staged a brazen escape three weeks ago from a maximum-security prison in northern New York was shot and captured near the Canadian border on Sunday, two days after his fellow inmate was killed in a confrontation with law enforcement, authorities said. “The nightmare is finally over,” Gov. Andrew Cuomo declared at a news conference. A state police sergeant shot David Sweat in the town of Constable, about 1 ½ miles south of the Canadian border and 30 miles northwest of the prison, after spotting him walking along a road and recognizing him, Cuomo said. Sweat fled and Sgt. Jay Cook opened fire when he couldn’t catch him on foot and noticed the fugitive heading toward a line of trees, state police said. Sweat was struck twice in the torso and taken to a hospital in stable condition, Cuomo said. His capture came two days after his escape partner, Richard Matt, was shot and killed by authorities. The men had been on the loose since June 6, when they cut their way out of a maximum-security prison about 30 miles away using power tools. State police Superintendent Joseph D’Amico said the men may have used pepper to mask their trail; he said Sweat’s DNA was recovered from pepper shakers found at one camp where the fugitives may have spent time. “We did have difficulty tracking so, you know, it was fairly effective in that respect,” D’Amico said. Cuomo said many questions remained unanswered. “We have already started a full investigation,” he said. “But today ends with good news. These were dangerous, dangerous men.” Matt and Sweat used power tools to saw through a steel cell wall and several steel steam pipes, bashed a hole through a 2-foot-thick brick wall, squirmed

through pipes and emerged from a manhole outside the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora. Sweat was serving a sentence of life without parole in the killing of a sheriff’s deputy in Broome County in 2002. Matt was serving 25 years to life for the killing and dismembering of his former boss. They were added to the U.S. Marshals Service’s 15 Most Wanted fugitives list two weeks after getting away. The search for the escaped killers was initially concentrated around the prison and a rural community where search dogs had caught the scent of both men. The search had since been expanded to neighbouring counties, and, while authorities said there was no evidence the men had gotten out of the general area, they conceded they could have been almost anywhere. “It’s a little unnerving, him being so close,” Constable resident Trevor Buchanan said Sunday. “I’m just glad it’s over.” In nearby Malone, Cathy Leffler cheered outside Alice Hyde Medical Center as an ambulance transporting Sweat left the hospital escorted by police vehicles. Jeffrey Gordon, a spokesman for Albany Medical Center, said Sweat was being transferred there for further treatment. “I feel like I can sleep tonight,” Leffler said. “Life can go back to normal. It’s over now.” She said she had to come to the hospital to “see it through.” “This has been going on for three weeks and our town was in an uproar and we haven’t been able to sleep. This is a relief for the town of Malone.” The manhunt broke open Friday afternoon when a person towing a camper heard a loud noise and thought a tire had blown. Finding there was no flat, the driver drove eight miles before looking again and finding a bullet hole in the trailer. A tactical team responding to the scene of the shot smelled gunpowder inside a cabin and saw evidence that someone had fled out the back door.

Spring-summer menswear hits Paris Fashion Week BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS PARIS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Quirky touches infused the menswear runways in Paris Fashion Week Friday, while Givenchy got serious, reviving its long-neglected couture roots. Fashion attendee Courtney Love, meanwhile, spoke to The AP about being ambushed in a strike over Uber at Charles de Gaulle airport.

GIVENCHYâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S UNEXPECTED RETURN TO COUTURE It was a normal enough start for Givenchyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Riccardo Tisci. Sharp long tailored suit jackets were followed by embellished basketball-style T-shirts, denim and a sprinkling of cobalt blue coats. The ubiquitous gothic stars, giant mysterious key-shaped pendants, images of the Crucifixion, and Roman-style layered skirts â&#x20AC;&#x201D; were also designs expected from a serial provocateur like Catholic Tisci. But what made fashion insiders gasp in this very unexpected show was the unforgettable image of Naomi Campbell strutting the boards in her underwear in a glittering black couture jacket. The look came alongside a diaphanous, feathered couture gown in pale yellow, and, elsewhere, fastidiously constructed white baroque fringing that had people grasping for their cameras. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been years since Givenchy has showcased its couture on the catwalk. Fashion insiders applauded this comeback for the age-old couture masters.

COURTNEY LOVE TALKS UBER-GATE Love, Kurt Cobainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s widow, created a social media storm Thursday when she tweeted that she had her car set upon by striking taxi drivers as part of an Uber-related protest after arriving at Parisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; main airport for Fashion Week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;paid some guys on motorcycles to sneak us out, got chased by a mob of taxi drivers who threw rocks, passed two police and they did nothing,â&#x20AC;? she tweeted. The former Hole singer, who wore a revealing black Givenchy dress Friday in her first public appearance since the debacle, spoke to The AP. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was horrible. It was scary. The Uber strike was nutty. As a tourist coming in to the airport itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot to handle,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were literally held against our will for two hours. Not as serious hostages. But it was scary,â&#x20AC;? she said. She also said that she was â&#x20AC;&#x153;unawareâ&#x20AC;? of the power of social media, and was shocked to see her tweet make its way across global media and become one of Thursdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top world news stories.

MAISON MARGIELAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S PEELED RUBBER The setting of a former train repair depot was a playful metaphor for Maison Margiela, a house which, after all, built its name on dissecting and reassembling bric-a-brac. In Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s creative show there were

hints of this â&#x20AC;&#x153;recyclingâ&#x20AC;? tradition. Collage-like singlets and long swinging coats were, the program notes said, made from industrial rubber that was first moulded onto mannequins, walls, and other clothes, then peeled off when dry, with the underlying material sticking onto it. But the collection played it safe overall. Classic suits with long proportions were worn on a bare chest, and a glittery bronze tuxedo with large retro lapels mixed in a dash of the Seventies. Given itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a change of direction for the house, the collection left some wondering why the creative envelope â&#x20AC;&#x201D; now under the stewardship of John Galliano â&#x20AC;&#x201D; was not pushed more.

KRIS JENNER MAKES APPEARANCE ON HER OWN Kardashian matriarch Kris Jenner rocked up to the Givenchy show without her son-in-law, Kanye West, for company. Fifty-nine-year old Jenner held her own and rocked a black Givenchy look, with slicked back hair and shades, and mingled with Love. West had been in town Thursday to attend Paris Fashion Week, but skipped the Givenchy show â&#x20AC;&#x201D; where he is a regular fixture â&#x20AC;&#x201D; because he had left for England to perform in the Glastonbury music festival. His wife, Kim Kardashian, met up with him there.

JUUN J. EXPERIMENTS It was fun, creative chaos for Korean designer Juun J. who showed off back-to-front tops, trompe lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;oeil unfurling zippers and oversize sweaters in his strong spring-summer collection that riffed on the 80â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. The playful looks felt quirky and fresh. A pinstripe suit was twinned with voluminous denim jeans that sported a cool unfurled zipper section that looked like the model had left home in a hurry. A baggy denim shirt sported a high collar, making it look back-to-front, continued this nice, hurriedly-dressed idea. The best look in the show was a baggy, oversize Breton striped sweater. On first glance, the meandering lines on the front made it look like the sweater was creased, but it was in fact a trompe lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;oeil effect and the sweater was as straight as Fashion Week is long.

BERLUTIâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S COLOR VISION It was the most colour-rich display seen so far this season, courtesy of Berluti. The house â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a bootmaker since 1895 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; branched out into clothes last year under the watchful eye of LVMHowner Bernard Arnaultâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s powerful son, Antoine, who is CEO. And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s making a visual impact already â&#x20AC;&#x201D; their collections are certainly not for the colour-shy. On Friday, apple and earth green met joyously with raw Sienna, bright yellow, and vivid blues in loose Dandy jackets, high waisted pants and insouciant baggy boho shirts. The setting â&#x20AC;&#x201D; inside the 17th century manor, the Hotel Sale, that houses the Picasso Museum â&#x20AC;&#x201D; set of this colour-rich Dandy musing to a tee.

Husband has become addicted to pornography Dear Annie: Not long ago, I discovered that my husband of 25 years was living a completely secret life. This life included pornography, voyeurism, physical affairs, emotional affairs and flirtations with hundreds of women he met through his sales job. Many of the women thought he was going to divorce me, even though he was manipulating them to get his fix. He is a sex addict. At that point, I simply stayed with him for the sake of our children. According to my husband, his addiction to pornography and masturbation started after he was abused as a child. He shared with me that he used lust, fantasy and sex to numb his pain and the belief that he was fundamentally flawed. As he is learning to deal with his old trauma, I have given my husband mountains of grace, though he raged and verbally attacked me. Lately, he’s doing significantly better and is regularly attending meetings of Sex Addicts Anonymous.

My husband claims he has been in recovery for 18 months, but he has yet to disclose everything he did, and I have come across evidence that he is still looking at racy photos on his phone. (Voyeurism is also MITCHELL his thing, so he & SUGAR stares at women in public and then denies it.) I am out of patience. Anytime I start to build trust, I discover he is still lying. But it is hard to leave, because when the marriage is good, it is great. What should I do? — Want My Husband to Stop Lusting After the World

Dear Want: Recovery from any addiction takes time, and there are often relapses. But your husband may need to put a bit more effort into reassuring you that his progress is sincere and ongoing, and you are the only one who can determine whether you’ve had enough. He isn’t the only one who needs help. Please look into COSA (cosa-recovery.org), a support group for those whose lives have been affected by someone else’s compulsive sexual behavior. And do get tested for STDs. Dear Annie: I was furious after reading the letter from “Anonymous,” the successful professional who resented that her well-off mother never offered to reimburse her or pay her share of meals. I am 50 and was born to a family that didn’t have much. When I started making money, I used to love picking up the tab for my parents at restaurants, buying them new appliances, plane tickets for their trips and expen-

sive gifts around the holidays. It never could make up for what my parents did for us growing up. My father died five years ago. In the past few years, my wife and I have had some setbacks and I no longer have the disposable income I had before. It kills me to cut back when it comes to gifts and dinners for my mom. Tell “Anonymous” to get over herself. She should thank God every day that she has the financial means to pick up a check and a parent to spend it on. — Tom Dear Tom: Every parent-child relationship is different, as are the financial circumstances.

Fridge stench sends 11 to hospital LEXINGTON, Ky. — Officials say a smelly refrigerator at the University of Kentucky sent nearly a dozen people to the hospital. Multiple news outlets report that workers smelled a strong odour coming from the fridge when they came to work Wednesday at the Dimock Animal Pathology building. They opened the fridge to an overpowering smell. University officials say movers had brought the fridge there from another campus building Tuesday evening but didn’t detect anything amiss. Fire battalion chief Joe Best says people reported minor irritation to the skin or eyes and some nausea. Eleven were taken to the hospital. Firefighters evacuated the building and kept people away as a precaution. University spokeswoman Kathy Jones says officials believe the odour was caused by a chemical residue left by something that had been inside the refrigerator. The building was reopened Wednesday afternoon.

HOROSCOPES

SOROCABA, Brazil — A pink flamingo in Brazil has gotten a new leg to stand on — an artificial one. Zookeepers at a zoo in southeastern Brazil say this week they think it’s the first time a flamingo has used a prosthetic leg. The 6-year-old Chilean flamingo at the Sorocaba zoo fractured his left leg a month ago. It was partially amputated to halt an infection from killing the bird. Veterinarian Andre Costa performed the amputation. He says the bird wouldn’t have survived with just one leg. Costa decided to give the artificial leg a try. The 7-inch carbon limb was donated by a local prosthesis manufacturer.
