International piano school planned for Kimberley Southeast Asian parents will travel for music lessons for their kids, says Hong Kong piano teacher C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor
As long time Kimberley residents could tell you, it’s at this time of year that many were used to hearing the sounds of accordions coming out of the Platzl. The Kimberley International Old Time Accordion Championships were always held the first full week in
July and since their demise a few years ago, a lot of Kimberley boosters have been trying different things to attract people to the Platzl and the city itself. There have been successful ventures, like First Saturdays. And new ventures, like the upcoming Medieval Festival this weekend (more on that in tomorrow’s Bulletin). Another Kimberley booster, Pianist Arne Sahlen, has come up with another idea that he hopes may attract some visitors to Kimberley, from Asia as well as Canada. Sahlen’s idea is an International Piano Summer School and he, with his partner, Anthony Tam of Hong Kong, plan the first session
in July of 2016. “This can be one small replacement for the festivals we have lost recently,” Sahlen said. “For me personally, it’s also a way to give back to my splendidly supportive home base.” Sahlen and Tam met in 2007 at a Canada-US music conference in Toronto. Both report instant friendship. Both are renowned piano teachers, examiners and adjudicators. The school would be marketed to both Canadian and Asian students, with the intention of cross-cultural understanding. “Each can learn from the others experience,” Sahlen said.
And Tam says there is a definite market in Southeast Asia for good music teachers and destination schools. “In Asia now there are lots of students doing music lessons,” Tam said. “Every year in Southeast Asia, parents will travel to other countries to seek more knowledge for their children. They are willing to travel all over. There are some music schools in Southeast Asia but we lack a lot of good teachers. This will work well for young children. Parents are eager to travel to seek advice.” Tam thinks many families would be eager to come to Kimberley, although perhaps only in the summer.
“Arne tells me it is extremely cold in Kimberley in the winter. Too cold for Asians,” he said. Sahlen says there are plenty of resources in Kimberley for the students, including a good grand piano at Centre 64 and plenty of churches with good pianos. Accommodations for families would be no problem and he would be looking for home stays for older students. “We have a rich resource of teachers locally. I think it’s a great way to market Kimberley and encourage repeat visitors. “The idea has been hovering in the back of my brain for a while, it just took Anthony to brig it to life.” See PIANO, page 3

Fire season shaping up as one of the worst Tom Fletcher Black Press
VICTORIA – The B.C. government has spent more than $80 million so far this year battling forest fires, on a pace for one of the worst fire seasons on record. There were 27 new fire starts reported in B.C. on Sunday alone, with 184 active fires being fought across the province and nine evacuation alerts and orders in effect as of Monday affecting 800 homes. Finance Minister Mike de Jong said the unusual early dry spell has provincial costs running ahead of 2003, where devastating fires at Barriere near Kamloops and in the Okanagan destroyed or damaged 238 homes and burned 12 wooden trestles in the Myra Canyon stretch of the historic Kettle Valley Railway. The 2009 fire season is the most expensive on record, with $382 million spent, compared to $375 million in 2003. Those years also saw prolonged drought, but it set in later in the summer. A tree-faller was killed Sunday while working on a fire on the
When Mike Tremblay heard the Six Mile fire was nearing his parents’ property, he sped from his place in the Junction to see how he could help. By mid afternoon he was hauling firewood down the hill as sheet-like walls of smoke ascended behind him. “My family has been here sixty years and we’ve never been threatened by a fire like this before,” he said.

A firefighter works away at the Elaho hillside blaze. Sunshine Coast, the latest reminder of the danger of firefighting. In 2010, two air tanker pilots were killed, and a helicopter pilot died fighting a fire in 2009. There is no budget limit for forest fire expenditures. While the costs have to be accounted for after the season, de Jong said he
is more concerned with the continued carelessness of people despite the financial and human costs. “I was driving down the highway yesterday and I saw someone throw a cigarette out of their car,” de Jong said. “Give your head a shake. I don’t know what is wrong with people who
“The smoke came quite far down the hillside, and I saw all these great photos on Facebook. It’s kind of hard to do the speed limit when you’re driving out to your childhood home to see what’s going on.” Other family members helped the Tremblays relocate their belongings. Tremblay said he’s bringing water for his parents because their creek now has a “smoky flavour”. Speaking to the Star at approximately 12:15,
Tremblay expressed optimism that the fire would continue to spread over the ridge towards Duhamel and away from the residences along Highway 3A. Though plumes of smoke continued to billow skyward, it seemed like the fire was sizzling out after multiple hits of retardant from fire crews. As of 10:42 a.m. BC Wildfire said there are currently 25 firefighters on the scene and a full response was underway

wantonly put other people’s lives and property at risk.” B.C. has often lent its experienced fire crews to other jurisdictions, but in 2009 more than 1,800 people were brought in from most other provinces, the U.S. and even Australia and New Zealand. That may be more
difficult this season, with severe conditions across Western Canada. In Saskatchewan, where 12,000 people have fled their homes, Premier Brad Wall announced Monday that up to 1,000 Canadian Forces troops may be called in to help.
using helicopters and air tankers. “There’s definitely a lot of helicopter and plane support, so that’s great,” said Tremblay. Beside Highway 3A, cyclist Kevin Berduco was standing watching the fire’s progress. “It’s been creeping down. It seems to be about halfway now, into this little valley. You got to feel for these people. Let’s hope they get on top of this before their homes get hit, because they’re surrounded by a
pretty big fire load.” At 12:30 p.m., the RDCK confirmed the evacuation alert was still in place and estimated the blaze’s swath had decreased by 30 hectares. “Ground fire and flight crews, with the aid of water bombers and a tanker, continue to battle the blaze. The fire is approximately 120 hectares in size. Currently, the prevailing winds are moving the fire up the mountain.”

Trio of Cranbrook boys to represent B.C. Rugby
Zak Campbell, Conor and Callum Sinclair named to B.C. Rugby squads following Provincial Regional Championships Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor
A trio of Cranbrook boys will represent B.C. on the provincial rugby pitch in coming weeks. Zak Campbell, Conor Sinclair and Callum Sinclair have all been selected to suit up for B.C. Rugby after representing Vancouver South at the B.C. Rugby Provincial Regional Championships in Burnaby from June 27 to 28. Campbell suited up as a member of the U-14 squad, while both Sinclair brothers represented Vancouver South at the U-16 level. The Provincial Regional Championships serve as part of the selection process for determining provincial squads at each age level. Following regional tournament, Callum Sinclair was named to the B.C. Rugby’s U-14
team, which will train and compete in Kelowna from Aug. 4 to 10. Campbell, along with Connor Sinclair, were named to the B.C. Rugby U-16 training team, which will train and compete in North Vancouver from July 12 to 18. From there, 24 players will be selected to represent B.C. Rugby in Kelowna at the Western National Training Camp, which takes place July 28 to 30 and leads into a set of matches against prairie rugby squads (July 31 and Aug. 2). All three boys spent time in White Rock during the month of June to practice with their respective Vancouver South teams prior to the Provincial Regional Championships. In order to compete at the Provincial Rugby Championships, the boys were left to join the
Lower Mainland squads as no Kootenay regional team was entered into the tournament. In addition to being named to the U-16 training squad, Conor Sinclair was also selected as a member of the B.C. Rugby U-16 sevens team. This will be Conor’s second time representing B.C. as a member of its U-16 sevens squad. In February 2015, he travelled to Nevada for the Las Vegas Invitational Rugby Sevens Championships, where the B.C. U-16s claimed their divisional title after defeating Colorado, Ontario, Utah and a pair of U.S. regional teams. “I was impressed with [Conor’s] work ethic and attitude,” said coach Tony LaCarte, following the 2015 North American Rugby Sevens Championships. “[He] ran well, distributed un-

pitch for the Victoria International Youth Sevens tournament from July 10 to 11. Conor and his U-16 mates are registered in the U-18 open division and will face teams from
Local amateurs complete opening round CFL scoring up through at BCGA Junior Boys’ Championship two weeks of action Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor
The 2015 B.C. Golf Association Junior Boys’ Championship is being played at the Osoyoos Golf Club this week with the East Kootenay being represented by four local golfers. The opening round of play was completed Tuesday on the Park Meadows Course at Osoyoos Golf Club, with Ole Hatlelid (Ladner) and Patrick Tan (Vancouver) sharing a tie for the lead at two-under par. The top showing from the East Kootenay came courtesy of Russell du Toit (Kimberley), who put forth two-over score of 74 to take a share of 21st place into the clubhouse after one round. Kimberley’s Justin Sawley (T-69, 12-over) along with Nathan Nichol (73rd, 16-over) and Jonace Johnson (76th, 33-over), both of Cranbrook, all have work to do heading into second-round action.

TORONTO - It seems the CFL’s new rule changes are having the desired affect. The league announced Tuesday that through the first two weeks of the regular season both scoring and net offence are up from last year. Teams have scored an average of 52.4 points per game (compared to 45.5 points last year) and accumulated 725 yards per contest (compared to 652 in 2014). The CFL’s board of governors were hoping to inject more offence into games when it adopted the rule change this off-season that neither a defensive back nor a receiver could initiate contact five yards beyond the line of scrimmage. Another new rule was the five interior linemen on punts being unable to leave the line of scrimmage until the ball is kicked, thus giving the returner more room to run. Through two games, Hamilton’s Brandon Banks has taken two punts back for touch-
downs. Teams are also adjusting to the new passing rules as 21 penalties for illegal contact on a receiver have been issued this season. Last year there were five. More flags have been dropped, with an average of 29 penalties per game. That’s up 23 per cent from this time last year however both offside and objectionable conduct calls are up 83 per cent and 44 per cent, respectively. Another notable off-season rule change was pushing convert attempts back 20 yards to the 32. The move was made to make the extra point less of a foregone conclusion. So far, kickers have made 25-of-30 converts (83.3 per cent) whereas 99.4 per cent of conversions were successful in 2014. The league also changed its two-point convert policy, moving the ball from the fiveyard line to the threeyard line. Twelve twopoint attempts have been made, with eight being successful.
Alberta, Utah, the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island. Rugby sevens is a variant of rugby union in which teams are comprised of seven players to a side, as op-
posed to the typical 15 players a side. Rugby sevens has been recognized as an Olympic sport and will debut at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.
Blues sign Tarasenko to eight-year, $60-million deal ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. LOUIS - The St. Louis Blues say they have signed star forward Vladimir Tarasenko to an eightyear, $60 million contract. General manager Doug Armstrong announced the move Tuesday, locking up the 23-year-old Tarasenko after a season in which he made his first career All-Star game and was 10th in the NHL with 73 points, including 37 goals, to go along with a plus-27 rating. He was the youngest Blues player with a 30goal season since Brendan Shanahan in 1991-92. Drafted 16th overall by the Blues in 2010, Tarasenko has 135 points (66 goals, 69 assists) in 179 career regular-season games over parts of three seasons. He also has 10 goals and an assist in 13 playoff games. The Blues recently traded forward T.J. Oshie to Washington for Troy Brouwer, goalie Pheonix Copley and a third-round pick in next year’s draft. St. Louis will have coach Ken Hitchcock back next season, when they hope to advance farther in the post-season. The Blues were ousted in the first round by Minnesota.
Spieth opts to stay home ahead of British Open Luke Meredith Associated Press
SILVIS, Ill. - Most golfers believe the path to the British Open title starts a week early in Scotland. Jordan Spieth is content to stay at home and continue his Grand Slam push at the tournament that launched his PGA Tour career. Spieth will play this weekend at the John Deere Classic in western Illinois, rather than prepping for St. Andrews by playing the links course at the Scottish Open. Spieth says he’ll have plenty of rest and energy for the British Open. He says his performance in the Quad Cities will have no bearing on his performance next week in Scotland.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My dad has been a mess for the past couple of years and he’s sinking into a hole. Six months ago, he was laid off and his unemployment benefits just stopped. He also hit a car and left the scene. The police caught up with him and charged him with a hit and run. Dad is a delivery driver and I worry that his driver’s license will be taken away. He is too stubborn to find any other type of work. He recently went for an interview and didn’t get the job. I’m guessing because they saw his driving record. Dad keeps asking me for money and I always give it to him, because, well, he’s my father and I hate to see him like this. Here’s the real problem: Yesterday, I moved his laundry out of my dryer and noticed a cut piece of straw that is used for cocaine. Now I think I know where that money is going. For the past two weeks, I’ve been doing everything I can for Dad, helping him get food stamps, health insurance and cash assistance. I’ve been bringing him to all the government agencies, sitting with him and waiting. Then he asks me for money and I find that straw. I’ve had my suspicions for a while and this confirms it. He also drinks like a fish. I feel as though I’m the parent and he’s the child. Should I report him for the drugs so he can get court-ordered rehab? -- Torn Son Dear Son: Your father might get into court-ordered rehab. But he also might have to spend some time in jail for possession. You sound like a caring, loving son. Please understand that you cannot get your father to stop using drugs and alcohol. He must want to do that for himself. But you can and should stop giving him money. If you are concerned about his bills, you can pay those directly, and you can feed him and do his laundry if you choose. But it seems that handing him cash will only lead to trouble. You can look into Al-Anon (al-anon.alateen.org) and also Adult Children of Alcoholics (adultchildren.org) for support for yourself. Dear Annie: The letter from “Tired of the Gimme Generation” is right on. My husband and I are godparents to a lovely girl who is now 12. We have showered her with gifts since she was born, but have never once received any birthday or holiday cards in return. We can’t fault the child. Where are her parents? What are they teaching her? Our gifts were always something they expected her to receive. In fact, we only heard from them when a gift-giving occasion was on the horizon. A few times, the mother would tell us that the child wrote a thank-you note but the parents forgot to mail it. On the rare occasion when we did receive a thank-you, it was always just prior to the next gifting date. We sent our last gift on Christmas and received a thank-you note in April, just in time for her birthday. We sent a congratulatory email. -- The Heck with You Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

NEWS Greece comes to the table with skeptical creditors Mike Corder R af C asert Associated Press
BRUSSELS - Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras strode into a summit of eurozone leaders with a beaming smile Tuesday, but was met with anger when it became clear he had no written proposal on how to save his country from financial ruin. With Greece’s banks just days away from a potential collapse that could drag the country out of the euro, Tsipras had been expected to offer up economic reforms in exchange for loans. Instead, his government said it would only present a plan on Wednesday. “You know, there was a promise for today. Then, they’re promising for tomorrow,” said Lithuanian President Dalia Grybauskaite. “For the Greek government it’s every time ‘manana.”’ Tsipras came buoyed by a triumph in Sunday’s referendum, where an overwhelming majority of Greeks backed his call to reject the reforms that creditors had last proposed. But that domestic victory did not appear to give him
much leverage in talks with foreign creditors, who know Tsipras needs a deal soon to keep his country afloat. Banks have been shut for seven working days and will not reopen before Thursday, cash withdrawals have been limited for just as long, and daily business throughout the country has come to a near standstill. So it was with some surprise that European leaders learned Tsipras did not yet have a written proposal for new rescue aid. “I’m extremely sombre about this summit. I’m also sombre about the question of whether Greece really wants to come up with proposals, with a solution,” Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte said. Greece’s 18 eurozone partners have steadfastly said they want to help Greece stay in the currency club but have just as often complained about Greece dragging its feet during months of negotiations. Even German Chancellor Angela Merkel warned Tsipras he was dancing close to the financial abyss. “We are no longer talking about weeks but very few
days,” she said. An official from a eurozone nation said that Greece’s failure to bring clear proposals to an earlier meeting of finance ministers caused widespread frustration. Greek Finance Minister Euclid Tsakalotos instead made a presentation and discussed key issues. “Everybody was angry,” said the official, who asked not to be identified because he was commenting on a closed meeting. The eurozone’s top official, Jeroen Dijsselbloem, said he hoped the Greek government would make a written request as soon as Tuesday night or Wednesday morning to tap Europe’s bailout fund. Once that is in, the eurozone finance ministers would hold a teleconference to discuss the proposals and decide whether they can give Greece more loans. One big sticking point in the talks is Greece’s demand that the terms of its bailout loans be made easier. European officials are split on the issue, with lead eurozone lender Germany still reluctant. The International Monetary Fund last week called for European

Greek economy still in crisis following a domestic referendum that rejected reforms proposed for foreign lenders. states to accept longer repayment rates and lower interest rates on their loans to Greece. Many economists say that Greece’s debt burden, at almost 180 per cent of annual GDP, is unsustainable for a country its size. Getting a new rescue deal for Greece is urgent and becoming more so by the day. Greek banks are running out of cash even after the government shut them last week and placed limits on
how much depositors can withdraw or transfer. Normal commerce is now impossible in Greece. Small businesses, lacking use of credit cards or money from bank accounts, were left to rely on cash coming from diminishing purchases from customers. But Greeks are holding on tight to what they have. And suppliers are demanding that businesses pay cash up front. Giorgos Kafkaris, a
77-year-old pensioner, was among Greeks standing in line to withdraw cash at an Athens ATM on Tuesday. “I came to get the 120 euros, I can’t take more. The good thing is we had sorted things out earlier and we had 200-300 euros set aside,” he said. “I’m waiting for something better for all of us. I believe something better will happen.”
Afghan president Trade deficit now at $3.3 billion: StatsCan holding talks with Taliban C anadian Press

KABUL - Afghan officials are holding talks with Taliban representatives in the Pakistani capital in their first official face-to-face discussions, which the Afghan president said Tuesday were aimed at starting full-fledged negotiations. The talks in an unannounced location in Islamabad come after repeated informal meetings between Taliban and government representatives, most recently hosted by Qatar and Norway. But the new talks were the first formally acknowledged by the Afghan government - that and the semi-public nature of the talks suggested possible progress after years of frustration in trying to bring the two sides together. Pakistan’s prime minister, Nawaz Sharif, called the holding of the talks “a major breakthrough” in comments recorded for Pakistani TV from the Norwegian capital Oslo, where he is on a three-day visit. He said the overtness of the meeting was a positive development. “I hope there will be a positive outcome which will certainly be very helpful for peace and stability in Afghanistan,” he said. Since taking office in September, Afghan President Ashraf Ghani has made it a priority to find a peace settlement, even as fighting has continued in the war against the insurgency waged by the Taliban since their ouster in the 2001 U.S.-led invasion. Afghan forces are now bearing the brunt of the insurgency after the U.S. and NATO ended their combat role in the country at the start of the year, with Washington cutting its troop presence. Previous efforts to start a dialogue stalled, however, largely due the lack of trust and confidence between the two sides.
OTTAWA - Canada’s trade deficit grew to $3.34 billion in May compared with $3.0 billion in April, increasing the chances the Bank of Canada will cut its key interest rate next week, economists said Tuesday. BMO senior economist Benjamin Reitzes said Canada’s trade balance is on pace for a record deficit in the second quarter. “This report caps a run of soft data over recent months and suggests that trade will not be nearly as positive as anticipated at the start of the year,” Reitzes said. “Unless we get another massively positive jobs report on Friday, there’s a good chance Governor (Stephen) Poloz will cut rates at next week’s policy meeting.” Statistics Canada said earlier Tuesday that exports declined 0.6 per cent in May to $42 billion, while imports edged up 0.2 per cent to $45.3 billion. Economists had expected a deficit of $2.5 billion, according to
Thomson Reuters. Statistics Canada said export volumes decreased 2.5 per cent while prices increased 1.9 per cent. Meanwhile, import volumes were up 0.3 per cent and prices edged down 0.1 per cent. “All told, the weakness in volumes on the export front will have markets worried about May GDP, although we still expect better news from other categories like retailing,” CIBC chief economist Avery Shenfeld said. “That’s one more chip on the side of our forecast for a rate cut by the Bank of Canada next week, with Friday’s employment data still one more hurdle to cross.” The Bank of Canada is set to make its next rate announcement and release its monetary policy report on July 15. The central bank is widely expected to cut its economic outlook, but what happens with its key interest rate is less certain. A key economic data point will be the Statistics Canada labour force survey for June on
Friday, providing a look at how the country’s job market is faring. Canada’s exports to the United States in May fell 0.3 per cent to $32.0 billion, while imports from Canada’s largest trading partner increased 0.5 per cent to $30.0 billion. Exports to countries other than the United States fell 1.6 per cent to $10.0 billion in May as shipments to the United Kingdom dropped $345 million and exports to China decreased by $307 million. Imports from countries other than the United States were down 0.2 per cent to
$15.5 billion. The drop in exports came as shipments of in metal and non-metallic mineral products as well as metal ores and non-metallic minerals were largely offset by gains in aircraft and other transportation equipment and parts as well as motor vehicles and parts. Exports of metal and non-metallic mineral products were down 5.8 per cent to $4.6 billion, while metal ores and non-metallic minerals fell 9.2 per cent to $1.4 billion. Exports of aircraft and other transportation equipment and
parts rose 10.3 per cent to $2.1 billion, while motor vehicles and parts gained 2.7 per cent to $6.9 billion. On the other side of the equation, imports of consumer goods were up 2.3 per cent to $9.7 billion, while metal and non-metallic mineral products rose 5.0 per cent to $3.8 billion. The energy sector saw exports increase 1.3 per cent to $7.7 billion in May as prices rose 8.4 per cent and volumes dropped 6.5 per cent. Imports of energy products were up 2.9 per cent to $3.0 billion, on higher prices.
Facebook corralling more computing capacity with Texas data centre Associated Press
FORT WORTH, Texas - Facebook is building a massive data centre in Texas to provide more computing capacity for the online social network’s 1.4 billion users to share tidbits of their lives with friends and family. The building in Fort Worth, Texas will span about 500,000 square feet. It will be located on a 111-acre site that will allow for further expansion. Facebook Inc. initially expects to
employ 40 people at the data centre, which will rely solely on wind power to keep its computer servers running. It will be Facebook’s fourth data centre in the U.S., joining others in Oregon, Iowa and North Carolina. The Menlo Park, California, company’s only overseas data centre is in Sweden. Rival Google Inc. recently picked Alabama to be the home of its 14th data centre.
