f you looked at his weekly workout routine, you would never guess George Stenning is 81 years old. Squats, chinups, bench-presses, single-arm rows, deadlifts, cable-core press and farmer’s walk. That is just the first day of a six-week program and it doesn’t include the added yoga, swimming, hiking, cycling and running. Stenning spends anywhere from 12 to 20 hours per week in the gym. Born in southern England, Stenning moved to the United States and then to Canada in the 1950s. He retired just before turning 60, having spent years working as a lifeguard, plumber and general labourer for construction projects. He moved to Nanaimo shortly after he retired.

“I was cycling, rowing, swimming all sorts of stuff but I was drinking, I was drinking every night and I wasn’t watching my diet,” Stenning said. “You can exercise all you want, but you have to do all three, you have to exercise, do your diet and get your rest. “When you’re young you tend to burn the candle at both ends, you stay out partying and drinking and get away with it.” Stenning is now focused on a low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet. Eggs are his most-consumed food; he eats anywhere from two to four per day. “I went to the doctors and now the pipes are all clear,” said Stenning.

BC Ferries earnings up $49M DARRELL BELLAART DAILY NEWS
BC Ferries earnings rose sharply to $49 million for fiscal 2015, up from $18 million the previous year. The publicly owned company released its year-end results for fiscal 2015 on Friday afternoon. It came “one full performance term sooner than originally anticipated,” said Mike Corrigan, BC Ferries’ president and CEO, in a press release. When government put BC Fer-
ries under a quasi-private operations model, the corporation was contracted to provide ferry service to the government under five-year, renewable terms. Revenues increased to $841 million from $800 million, due mostly to higher traffic, fares and fuel surcharges. “I’m glad they’ve turned the corner and they’re starting to rebound, that’s good news,” said Nanaimo Mayor Bill McKay. “But I would like to see some
consideration for increasing the subsidies for Gulf Islands routes.” Minor routes serving island communities were hardest hit by fare hikes in BC Ferries’ drive to cut costs, and while residents of places like Gabriola Island aren’t in the city limits, McKay said the entire Region District of Nanaimo benefits when coastal transportation is affordable. Opposition BC Ferries critic Claire Trevena said she hopes
Transportation Minister Todd Stone will use “put it towards reduced fares” across the system. Corrigan said fare increases will be below annual inflation rates in the company’s fourth five-year performance term, starting April 1. BC Ferries has to replace one ship per year over the next 12 years. “Strong financial results are essential to maintain sustainable operations, meet our debt covenants, and to maintain our
current strong investment-grade credit rating to ensure financing is affordable,” Corrigan said. BC Ferries’ operating expenses increased to $722 million from $714 million in the fiscal year, mainly from maintenance and depreciation. Expenses were $150 million in the 12 months ended March 31.

Summer construction
A number of public construction projects kick off in Nanaimo this summer, as the city warns of impending traffic delays from the work. Some of the projects are already underway. The hospital area transportation and utility project, which will see road improvements and utility replacements throughout the area, will see single-lane alternating traffic along Boundary Avenue, Townsite Road, Waddington Avenue and other roads. Workers will also be replacing a water main on Neyland Road starting this month and heading into September, which will cause delays on that road. Other work is slated to begin in the coming months. A culvert replacement project will begin on Wakesiah Avenue into July. The city says single-lane alternating traffic will be in effect between Second Street and Third Street for the first month of the project, with full road closure of Wakesiah set to begin in August. During that time, only residents will have access in and out of the street. And work begins in September

Sex assault study one that demands notice
V
ictims should never be considered responsible in any way for the crimes to which they’re subjected. That’s why many people will recoil from the suggestion that sexual assaults can be reduced by training potential victims to avoid them. However, evidence gathered by researchers at the University of Guelph and two other Canadian universities makes a compelling case that training young women on how to guard themselves against sexual assault can, in fact, make them safer. Hundreds of first-year female students at the schools received intensive training on how to reduce their risk of rape — particularly so-called “acquaintance rape.”
In a 12-hour program, they were shown how to forcefully shut down unwanted advances and to do such things as to keep doors open when spending time in a room with a male. They also received self-defence training. Meanwhile, another group of first-year female students were offered only brochure-type education on this material. Then, a year later, both groups were surveyed as to whether they had experienced rape, other sexual assault or attempts to commit these offences against them in the intervening period. The results offered statistically significant evidence that the better-trained women were far more unlikely to be victims of rape or attempted rape.
The jarring study, published last week in the New England Journal of Medicine, has led to suggestions that this type of teaching should be rolled out much more widely and even be considered as an addition to secondary school curriculum. Given the heat over developing and delivering updated sex-education that’s now brewing in Ontario, such a measure could be a challenging one to bring about. But politicians and policy-makers should pay attention to this research. The government has already signalled it is serious about addressing sexual assault. Expanding the program used in this university research might be a different direction than
the province’s public education campaign. After all, the recently launched, provocative, campaign has as its focus urging bystanders to step in to prevent rape, and renounce rape culture as well. That’s a more comfortable thing to digest: putting the onus on individuals, other than just potential victims, to take more responsibility. These are definitely strategies worth following. However, the university research results can’t and shouldn’t be ignored. The findings should also make the wider community uncomfortable because the rates of sexual assaults and unwanted sexual advances noted by the even bet-
ter-trained women in the study remained distressingly high. We’re at a new juncture in this social conversation. Important, too-long ignored issues are more out in the open. That’s in part due to more political, governmental and scholastic attention being paid to how to reduce sexual assaults and to confront the rape culture. These different efforts are generating advancements and productive conversations. Though they can be difficult, they need to continue.

Top court has stymied Tory legislative efforts I can only hope the outrage of Federal Health Minister Rona Ambrose with the Supreme Court of Canada’s recent bizarre and irresponsible ruling on medical marijuana is echoed across this country. The unanimous decision expands the definition of “medical marijuana” beyond dried leaves to include cannabis oils, teas, brownies and numerous other forms of the drug. Since when does an unelected
group of judges have the right to usurp the authority of our Ministry of Health, the only body qualified to decide on what is and what is not medicine, and ignore the rigorous and proper procedure of scientific research in such an important decision affecting the health of millions of Canadians? The top court in the land has deliberately closed their eyes to the fact that cannabis has never been scientifically proven to be a safe medicine. Of late, there have been a rising number of respected columnists who have not been shy to justifiably criticize the The Supreme Court. It is high time the blind and slavish adulation of this group of nine unelected judges is challenged. The mythical idea that this court is never wrong and beyond criticism is outdated well beyond a safe expiry date. This is the court that ruled Canada’s common sense prostitution laws are “unconstitutional.” This is the court that out of personal bias and good use of ambiguity ruled Justice Marc Nadon to be not qualified to sit on the high court. This is the court that in their “infinite wisdom” gave convicted criminals one-and-a-half days off their sentence for every day they spend in pre-trial custody. This is the “compassionate”court which thoughtlessly ruled to
strike down the ban against euthanasia in Canada with little or no thought for the fears of our elderly. So how is it that a court that is supposed to properly interpret and enforce laws has such a high opinion of themselves that they have taken to making laws? We can’t vote out the top court like we can bad governments but maybe it is time to bring things back into balance with a tool left called the “notwithstanding” clause. Gerald Hall Nanoose
Councillors must listen to and heed good advice Since Monday night’s disastrous council meeting, I have been alternating between despair and disbelief at the behaviour of several councillors. It wasn’t just their belligerence and outright rudeness to the would-be developers — although that continues to take my breath away — it was the lack of substance to their position. One by one, community leaders and groups who have worked long and hard courting these developers came to the podium and gave reason after reason why an extension is warranted, not the least of
which was the $5M the developers have already invested. City staff recommended the same, based on their months and months of work with the developers. But all of this background work, careful negotiation and reasoned argument was rejected by five councillors. Because they had a better idea? A better offer? On the contrary. Coun. Bill Bestwick actually stated, “We’re no good at this,” in reference to council’s inability to manage this kind of development. Past history with the last failed hotel attempt would seem to prove him correct. What I cannot fathom is how, when you know you don’t know how to proceed, you fail to take advice from all the people who are closest to the issue and have the greatest amount of knowledge and expertise? That’s the real reason this council waffles. S.L. Hargraves Nanaimo Letters must include your hometown and a daytime phone number for verification purposes only.

Julia Dow named new general manager at Woodgrove ROBERT BARRON DAILY NEWS
DOW
Julia Dow said she felt that she hit the jackpot when she was chosen to be the new general manager of Woodgrove Centre in Nanaimo. After spending the last two years as the property manager at Edmonton’s Southgate Centre, Dow assumed her new role at Woodgrove Centre this week. Dow has been with Ivanhoe Cambridge, the corporation that owns both shopping centres, for seven years, and the first five
years were spent in Nanaimo where she worked as the speciality leasing manager for Woodgrove and Victoria’s Mayfair Mall. “I’m so excited to be back in Nanaimo,” she said Friday. “My husband Richard (a salesman at Woodgrove Chrysler) stayed in Nanaimo when I went to Edmonton and commuted once a month so he’s also excited that I’m working here again.” Dow is taking over from Mark Fenwick, the general manager at
Woodgrove since 2008, who was hired in April to be the general manager of the new Tsawwassen Mills Mall, which is also owned by Ivanhoe Cambridge. Dow said Fenwick left Woodgrove in “terrific shape” with foot traffic up in the mall by two per cent from last year, and a four per cent increase in sales among the centre’s 138 stores. She said she intends to continue that upward trend and make Woodgrove Centre a “mall that people want to visit.” “The opening of Sephora (a
store dedicated to beauty products and cosmetics) this week was great and we’re excited that the store chose us, and an Eclipse fashion store is scheduled to open at the beginning of July,” she said. “Another wonderful aspect of returning to Woodgrove is that I’m working with the same team that I worked with before, and they are a great group.” Robert.Barron @nanaimodailynews.com 250-729-4234
EDUCATION
Home schooling attracts more students Parents ‘increasingly’ looking for different choices in how their children are educated in B.C. ROBERT BARRON DAILY NEWS
Natalie Hoffmann says she has no intention of sending her young kids to regular schools anytime soon. Hoffmann is a member of the Nanaimo Community Home Learners, a parent-run organization which provides home-schooling support to families in the Nanaimo area. She said her oldest, Jane, would be in kindergarten this year if she hadn’t decided on home-schooling. But last year’s teachers’ strike and her concerns around sending Jane to oversized classrooms where she wouldn’t receive the support and assistance she requires prompted Hoffmann to explore other options. She said she’s not surprised by a Fraser Institute study, Home Schooling in Canada: The Current Picture – 2015, released this week that found that home schooling has increased by approximately 29 per cent across Canada over a five-year period, 2007-2012. “Sending Jane to a brick-andmortar school just wouldn’t fit our lifestyle,” Hoffman said. “Jane is a free spirit and I prefer teaching her and her younger sister Elinor using play-based learning methods at her own speed rather then the scheduled learning in schools.” The study says 21,662 Canadian children were registered as home school students in 2012, an almost 30-per-cent increase from 2007.
“Jane is a free spirit and I prefer teaching her and her younger sister Elinor using play-based learning methods at her own speed rather then the scheduled learning in schools.” Natalie Hoffmann, mom
Deani Van Pelt, author of the study, said the figures point to a growing number of Canadians who, for various reasons, feel their child’s interests are best served by education outside of a traditional institutional setting. “Parents are increasingly looking for more choice in how their children are educated and home schooling is proving to be a viable choice,” Van Pelt said. Katherine Charles, a member of the NCHL and mother of a 10-year-old, said she has been home schooling for five years. “It’s been a long journey of learning for the both of us,” she said. “But I hated the public education system and I felt it wasn’t a good match for my daughter. I would rather she follow her own interests in her studies and learn at her own speed.” Robert.Barron @nanaimodailynews.com 250-729-4234

Member’s bill aimed at abandoned vessels
Rushton takes over as co-ordinator
DAILY NEWS
Another private member’s bill to counter the increasing problem of abandoned vessels in British Columbia’s coastal waters has been introduced in Parliament. John Weston, MP for West Vancouver-Sunshine Coast- Sea to Sky Country, has introduced The Prohibition of Abandoned Vessels bill that creates the possibility that a person who abandons a vessel may be subject to jail time and fines up to $100,000. Earlier this year, a private members bill intended to deal with derelict vessels introduced by Nanaimo-Cowichan MP Jean
Crowder was voted down in the House of Commons. Crowder was attempting to deal with the concerns with the vessels within her riding, particularly in Ladysmith harbour. Crowder’s bill would have designated the Canadian Coast Guard as a receiver of wrecks and give it the power to alert the wreck’s owner before it becomes a hazard. Nanaimo-Ladysmith Conservative candidate Mark MacDonald said he met with Ladysmith officials three months ago and has been working behind the scenes, pushing for a “solution to a problem that faces many coastal communities.”

Group wants graduates of French programs for updates DAILY NEWS
The Canadian Parents for French BC & Yukon organization is looking for graduates from French programs in the Nanaimo-Ladysmith school district to contact them. Patti Holm is the president of the organization, which is a parent-lead, non-profit group dedicated to promoting and supporting French second-language opportunities for all youth. She said students in the local school district have been learning French through popular programs like French immersion since 1977. Holm said many of these graduates have been changed in
some way, shape or form by their experience. She said some went on exchanges to French speaking regions, while others continued their language studies and landed jobs in a variety of fields and professions. Holm said that as part of a summer-long project, Canadian Parents for French is on the search for many of these graduates from the Nanaimo-Ladysmith school district to ask them ‘where are they now?’ “Graduates of French immersion programs include Olympians, journalists, engineers, ministers, teachers and so much more,” she said.

Ski resort for park meets with opposition Several former Parks Canada officials want the federal government to put the brakes on proposed new development guidelines for a ski resort in one of Canada’s best-loved parks. Stephen Woodley, the agency’s former chief ecosystem scientist, is one of 11 one-time superintendents and directors who are concerned about the proposals for Lake Louise in Banff National Park. He says the plans would expand the resort’s footprint into wilderness areas. The letter says much of the science used to support the new guidelines is outdated and much remains unknown about the ski hill’s current impact on animals such as grizzlies. Parks Canada has said the proposals involve a land swap that would reduce the resort’s leasehold by about 500 hectares.

Cabinet minister cites son’s health as he exits politics James Moore latest in a string of long-time Tory MPs bowing out of campaign Other recents exits from the Conservative Party
STEPHANIE LEVITZ THE CANADIAN PRESS
OTTAWA — Industry Minister James Moore announced Friday he won’t seek re-election in October, leaving the prime minister heading into the election campaign without one of his most loyal lieutenants. Moore, 39, cited the health of his young son Spencer as the reason for his leaving federal politics, but his departure was immediately pounced on by critics as more evidence the Conservatives are losing steam. Moore is the latest in a string of long-time Tory MPs bowing out of this campaign. He’s also among the longest-serving Tories from British Columbia, a province considered very much in electoral flux. “Balancing family responsibilities while in public life is always a challenge,” he said in a statement. “This is particularly true when you have a child with special needs.” Moore married Courtney Payne, a former adviser in the prime minister’s office, in 2011 and they have a son, Spencer, who has a form of skeletal dysplasia that requires extensive care. The popular, fluently bilingual cabinet minister was first elected in 2000 and was among the earliest backers of Stephen Harper’s bid for leadership of the Canadian Alliance and later Conservative parties. Moore himself has long been rumoured to have leadership aspirations and even among Harper’s inner circle is consider a potential successor to the prime minister. He has not ruled out a return to politics, but he spent weeks mulling over his immediate political

future and discussed it at length with Harper. Moore’s decision was cemented following a recent update to his son’s prognosis. His departure strips the Conservative cabinet of one of its policy and political heavyweights. Moore was a popular draw at fundraising events for MPs from across the country and central to election strategy, especially in British Columbia. The main fight there is expected to be between the New Democrats and the Conservatives and recent polls suggest Tory support is softening. Conservative insiders estimate about 12 seats are in play, while the NDP put it closer to 15. Moore won his urban Lower Mainland riding in the 2011 campaign with 56 per cent of the
vote, with the New Democrats in second place with 30 per cent. The NDP candidate this time around is former journalist Sara Norman. It was in a scrum with Norman in 2013 when Moore made a controversial comment about the role of the government in eradicating child poverty. “Is it my job to feed my neighbour’s child? I don’t think so,” he said. He later apologized.

May consumer price index up from year ago The Canadian economy sent another set of mixed signals Friday with inflation edging higher and retail sales taking a step back, suggesting the recovery continues to struggle to find its footing. Statistics Canada said the annual pace of inflation in Canada was 0.9 per cent in May following a 0.8 per cent increase for April as higher prices for food more than offset a decline in lower energy prices. The agency also reported that retail sales for April dropped 0.1 per cent to $42.5 billion following gains in February and March. Economists had expected an increase of 0.7 per cent. Economists have been grappling with a series of see-sawing data in recent weeks after the economy contracted in the first quarter at an annual rate of 0.6 per cent.

Alleged Brazeau victim says she feared for life ANDY BLATCHFORD THE CANADIAN PRESS
GATINEAU, Que. — The primary witness in Patrick Brazeau’s assault trial told the court Friday she feared for her life during an alleged fracas with the suspended senator two years ago. But Brazeau’s lawyer noted it was the first time she’d ever made the claim. The female complainant, whose identity is protected by a publication ban, broke into tears on the stand, making the confession after she spent more than five days under cross examination by Brazeau’s attorney. “I was afraid I was going to die,” the prosecution’s main witness said through an interpreter at the trial, which is being con-

Gerard Larocque quickly noted that the woman had never told the court, nor police that she feared for her life during the confrontation. The woman acknowledged she had never revealed this in previous statements. Larocque also asked her why she stayed in the house if she was so frightened, particularly since she also testified that Brazeau had been telling her leave during the incident. As Larocque pressed the witness, she started to cry and grabbed a tissue to wipe her eyes. The woman, who has struggled to recall specifics from the incident during questioning, said she couldn’t remember everything. “I’m sorry I’m trying to get into
details, but what I went through is very difficult,” she said, standing a couple of metres from Brazeau. “It’s difficult for me to be in front of my aggressor.” The complainant, who wrapped up her testimony Friday, has accused Brazeau of pushing her down stairs, choking her, smacking her head against a wall and a stair, spitting on her and sexually assaulting her. Larocque has suggested she is an aggressive person prone to losing control. Earlier in the trial, he alleged she was the instigator in the confrontation that led to Brazeau’s arrest — alleging she smacked his client with her hand and a leopard-print bra.

RCMP REPORT
WORLD NEWS The Associated Press
Most murdered, missing aboriginal women victims of family violence Majority of female victims of male attacks knew their perpetrators, say police KRISTY KIRKUP THE CANADIAN PRESS
OTTAWA — Aboriginal women continue to be most frequently killed by men they know, the RCMP said Friday as it released updated findings on missing and murdered indigenous women. Another 32 aboriginal women have been murdered and 11 more have disappeared since the force last reported on the issue 13 months ago. Its initial report put the tally at 1,181 murdered and missing women, between 1980 and 2012. The RCMP said Friday that female victims, regardless of ethnicity, continue to be targeted most often by men within their own homes and communities. “There is an unmistakable connection between homicide and family violence,” RCMP deputy commissioner Janice Armstrong said. The RCMP data, based only on findings in areas under the force’s jurisdiction, show that homicides of aboriginal women are solved in 81 per cent of cases, similar to the 83 per cent solution rate for killings of non-aboriginal women. The statistics support a controversial claim made by Aboriginal Affairs Minister Bernard Valcourt. In a closed door meeting with aboriginal leaders last March, Valcourt said 70 per cent of murdered aboriginal women were killed by aboriginal men. His comments infuriated several chiefs, who felt he was blaming aboriginal people for the problem.
Greek PM meets Putin in Russia visit THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. PETERSBURG, Russia — Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras met with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday evening in St. Petersburg, but the question of Russian financial aid for Greece was not discussed, Putin’s spokesman said. Greece is struggling to reach a deal with its creditors for new loans that it needs to avoid defaulting on debt payments at the end of the month. Without the bailout, Greece could be headed for bankruptcy or an exit from the 19-nation eurozone. Tsipras’ visit gave rise to speculation that the Greeks may be seeking Russian loans — and ahead of the talks, Putin’s spokesman said Russia would consider a loan if the Greeks asked for one. But when Tsipras met with Putin, the possibility of a loan wasn’t discussed, Peskov told journalists. Instead, they spoke about “the necessity of developing investment co-operation.” Tsipras said his country strove to be a “bridge of co-operation” with “traditional friends like Russia” and others.

Obama rejects shootings as the ’new normal’ President Barack Obama said Friday he refuses to accept the idea that regular mass shooting are “the new normal” in America. He acknowledged, though, that it will take a shift in public opinion before the country acts to tighten access to guns. Obama said his first comments on the church shootings in South Carolina, in which he said that political realities foreclosed action by Congress, had been misinterpreted by some as showing he was resigned to inaction on the issue of access to guns. He held out evolving public opinion on gay marriage and climate change as evidence that attitudes can change.

The RCMP said its conclusions reaffirm prevention efforts need to focus on family violence. “The relationship between the victim and the offender was particularly relevant in that over 90 per cent of the women represented within the homicide data were known to the victim,” said RCMP Supt. Tyler Bates. “Most often the offender was a spouse, a family member or an acquaintance.” Bates defined the acquaintance category as “primarily neighbours” or associates, although “criminal relationships” are also included.
Criminal relationships could include an encounter between a sex trade worker and a john, as well as relationships between a drug dealer and a client, said Bates. The Assembly of First Nations said the update is an urgent call to act on a national crisis. “We cannot ignore the evidence or the reality,” said AFN National Chief Perry Bellegarde. “There is a significant and tragic over-representation of indigenous women among the missing and murdered in this country. This is not just a First Nations issue, this is a Canadian
issue and we all have a role to play.” The AFN has joined other aboriginal organizations and opposition parties to push for a national public inquiry to examine missing and murdered aboriginal women. This call has also been supported by provincial and territorial premiers and the United Nations’ special rapporteur on the rights of indigenous peoples, James Anaya. The Conservatives continue to reject the idea of an inquiry, maintaining more study is not needed.
ADVENTURE
Climbing trio on Canada’s highest peak rescued as descent delayed THE CANADIAN PRESS
HAINES JUNCTION, Yukon — Three experienced climbers are recovering after sheltering inside a snow cave and tent for a week before being rescued while descending Canada’s highest mountain. The men from Alberta, British Columbia and Alaska were descending Mount Logan in Yukon when they were stranded by whiteout conditions and winds gusting up to 160 kilometres an hour. The trio used survival skills to hunker down at about 5,100 metres elevation, but were then evacuated by helicopter. “As the days wore on, it became more apparent to the climbers, and as well as to us, the seriousness of their situation,” said Craig McKinnon with Kluane National Park, where the mountain is located. The three climbers, between the ages of 40 and 60, started their journey up the mountain in late May. They reached the summit of the 5,900-metre mountain on June 2.
“As the days wore on, it became more apparent to the climbers, and as well as to us, the seriousness of their situation.” Craig McKinnon, Kluane Park official
All three were professionals, with one man boasting six climbs up Mount Everest and 14 climbs to Mount Dinali, also known as Mount McKinley, he said. But harsh weather conditions prevented a smooth descent. The men found a crevasse on a plateau, dug a snow cave and stayed there for three days to wait out the wind storm, McKinnon said. “This was a key move with these very experienced climbers and knowing what to do in this situation,” said McKinnon, noting it was minus 20 C and likely colder due to wind chill. “If they had set up a tent there’s a good chance that the
tent could have blown off the mountain.” When visibility improved, the men attempted to move onwards but made no progress, McKinnon said. They managed to set up camp at the same elevation and stayed put for five more days. The evacuation mission was launched two days after one climber using a satellite phone asked his wife to contact park officials. Not only were they running out of food and fuel by that point, one of the men was suffering frostbite. Then another climber was feeling ill from the high altitude. “It went from doing a food and fuel drop to, ‘We should be doing a rescue of the one climber,”’ McKinnon said. A team of about 20 rescue personnel from three national parks planned the risky manoeuvre, he said. McKinnon said all three men are back in high spirits, although doctors say it’s possible the frostbitten man may lose a finger. The park will pay for the rescue costs, he said.
WikiLeaks is in the process of publishing more than 500,000 Saudi diplomatic documents to the Internet, the transparency website said Friday, a move that echoes its famous release of U.S. State Department cables in 2010. WikiLeaks said in a statement that it has already posted roughly 60,000 files. Most of them appear to be in Arabic. There was no immediate way to verify the authenticity of the documents, although WikiLeaks has a long track record of hosting large-scale leaks of government material. The Saudi Embassy in Washington did not return messages seeking comment.

Province gives permit for controversial mine Worries magnified after tailing pond breach last summer GEMMA KARSTENS-SMITH THE CANADIAN PRESS
VANCOUVER — A gold and copper mine in northwestern British Columbia that still faces angry opposition from its neighbours in Alaska has received approval for a full operating permit from the provincial government. B.C. Minister of Energy and Mines Bill Bennett announced Friday that the Red Chris Mine, owned by Imperial Metals, will soon be in full production, despite environmental concerns from First Nations, environmental groups and Alaskans, who are downstream from the mine site. Those worries were magnified last summer, when a tailings pond collapsed at the Mount Polley mine, another Imperial Metals-owned mine in the Interior. Bennett said he’s confident the Red Chris Mine, located about 130 kilometres from the Alaska border, won’t experience a similar breach because the tailings storage facility has undergone three independent reviews. He noted the mine has operated successfully for months on a temporary permit while officials monitored the facility. “I have no doubt . . . that (waste) water is going to be managed carefully, and in such a way that people downstream, including our neighbours in Alaska, can have confidence that we’re doing everything that any responsible jurisdiction should do,” he said. Heather Hardcastle, a commercial fisherman and spokeswoman for Alaska-based group Salmon Beyond Borders said she’s still
BENNETT
worried the mine could unleash heavy metals and acidic drainage into the waters, impacting Alaska’s multi-billion dollar fishing and tourism industries. The problem is that the government of Alaska hasn’t been involved in assessing or approving mining projects in northwestern B.C., where mine run-off flows into Alaskan waters, she said. “We have no voice and B.C. has no accountability. And we’re taking on all of the risks and receiving none of the benefits,” Hardcastle said. Alaskans aren’t anti-mining, she added, but people are concerned about how many projects are currently underway in the pristine region. “We’re talking about a scale and scope of mining activity that’s never been seen before in a place that’s this valuable when it comes to salmon and clean water,” Hardcastle said. A representative for Alaska does have a seat at the table when it comes to many meetings on B.C. mining, said Bennett. The minister noted that there is
work to be done between Alaska and B.C., and said he would like to see a memorandum of understanding on mining between the two governments. Another group which initially opposed the Red Chris Mine is now part of the project. Members of the Tahltan First Nation set up a blockade at the mine last summer following the Mount Polley tailings pond collapsed, spilling millions of cubic metres of water and mine slurry into local waterways. The First Nation later instigated an environmental review of the Red Chris Mine, and in April signed on to co-manage it with Imperial Metals. “From here on our environmental oversight role — an important part of our agreement — will also start to expand,” Tahltan Central Council President Chad Day, said in a news release. He added that expanding the mine to full capacity will create jobs and bring other benefits to the First Nation. Bennett, too, said mining in B.C. helps bolster the province’s economy. Getting permits to build mines should be difficult, he said, but the province. needs to be competitive when it comes to attracting mining companies. “We had Mount Polley, it happened, it was terrible. It happened once in 150 years. We have to make sure it doesn’t happen again,” he said. “But I think it would be a serious mistake to think that you can’t mine safely in B.C. Because I’m convinced you can.”

Lost woman survives Court stays suit over nine days in backcountry Facebook privacy issue Police say a 24-year-old woman who was missing for nine days in the dense bush of British Columbian’s Okanagan survived on stream water and mushrooms. Kara Stoyanowski of Winnipeg and her boyfriend got stuck on an offshoot of the Peachland Forest Service Road on June 9. RCMP spokesman Cpl. Joe Duncan says her boyfriend went to get help, but she walked to higher ground and got lost, disappearing into the dense bush. A massive search ensued, involving Mounties, sniffer dogs, a police helicopter and scores of volunteers from as far away as the communities of Kamloops and Princeton. Duncan says Stoyanowski had lost weight, and had cuts on her feet and a sunburn when she finally stepped onto a gravel road on Thursday evening.
British Columbia’s top court has stayed a class-action lawsuit filed by a Vancouver woman against Facebook Inc. over a now-defunct advertising product. Deborah Douez took the social media giant to court, alleging the product known as Sponsored Stories used the names and images of Facebook members without their consent, breaching B.C.’s Privacy Act. The product, which is no longer available, included the names and images of members, as well as an advertising logo and product information, and it was sent to other Facebook members. A lower court judge agreed with Douez, and ruled in May 2014 that the Privacy Act overrode Facebook’s Terms of Use requiring claimants to resolve their actions in a California court.

Judge orders TransLink to pay commuter $90K
Remains of U.S. soldier to be buried in B.C.
TransLink has been ordered to pay a British Columbia commuter $90,000 nearly five years after the man broke his back while riding a bus. A B.C. Supreme Court judge says the Metro Vancouver transit authority is liable for the accident that led to Mark Hutchinson’s injuries in late 2010. The then-60-year-old Langley resident was commuting to his job in Delta when his bus hit a bump, throwing him into the air and breaking his vertebra in his lower back when he landed. The driver had a 25-year-long clean driving record and complained of dark and rainy conditions at the time of the incident. The judge outlined in the reasons for her decision that most of Hutchinson’s compensation was for pain and suffering.
Seventy years after his plane went down in Belgium, a U.S. airman will be given a full military funeral in Trail after his remains are returned to his family. Eric Honeyman and five members of his crew aboard the Second World War bomber Hunconscious were last heard from on Dec. 23, 1944. On Saturday, Honeyman’s remains will be escorted from a DNA testing facility in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, to the airport in Castlegar where they will be met with a formal receiving line and ceremony. In August, a funeral for the entire crew will be held at the U.S. Army’s military burial grounds at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia. Three of Honeyman’s cousins will be there.

CHARLESTON, S.C., SHOOTING
Families have ‘no room for hate’ Memorial and planned vigil are intended to repudiate whatever gunman would hope to accomplish JEFFREY COLLINS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
T
hey forgave him. They advised him to repent for his sins, and asked for God’s mercy on his soul. One even told Dylann Storm Roof to repent and confess, and “you’ll be OK.” Relatives of the nine community leaders shot down during a Bible study session at their historic black church confronted the shooting suspect Friday during his initial court hearing, and spoke of love. “I forgive you, my family forgives you,” said Anthony Thompson. “We would like you to take this opportunity to repent . . . . Do that and you’ll be better off than you are right now.” Roof, who faces nine counts of murder, was ordered held on $1 million bond on a separate gun charge. He appeared by video from the county jail, looking sombre in a striped jumpsuit and speaking only briefly in response to the judge’s questions. A police affidavit released Friday accused Roof of shooting all nine victims multiple times, and making a “racially inflammatory statement” as he stood over an unnamed witness. Felecia Sanders survived the Wednesday night attack by pretending to be dead, but lost her son Tywanza. She also spoke from the judge’s courtroom, where Roof’s image appeared on a television screen. “We welcomed you Wednesday night in our Bible study with open arms. You have killed some of the most beautifulest people that I know. Every fiber in my body hurts . . . and I’ll never be the same,” Sanders told Roof. “Tywanza was my hero,” Sanders said, but even she showed some kindness as she confronted the man accused of killing her son: “As we said in Bible Study, we enjoyed you but may God have mercy on you.” Roof, 21, bowed his head slightly as the relatives spoke. He could hear the people talking, but couldn’t see them, because the camera shows only the judge.
he relatives’ remarkable comments T seemed in keeping with a spirit evident on the streets of Charleston Fri-
day, where people built a memorial and planned a vigil to repudiate whatever a gunman would hope to accomplish by attacking the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, one of the nation’s most important African-American sanctuaries. “A hateful person came to this community with some crazy idea he’d be able to divide, but all he did was unite us and make us love each other even more,” Mayor Joseph P. Riley Jr. said as he described plans for the evening vigil at a sports arena. South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley said the state will “absolutely” want the death penalty.

A steady stream of people brought flowers and notes and shared sombre thoughts at a growing memorial in front of the church, which President Barack Obama called “a sacred place in the history of Charleston and in the history of America.” “This was an act of racial terrorism and must be treated as such,” the Rev. Cornell William Brooks, president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, said Friday in Charleston. Roof had complained while getting drunk on vodka recently that “blacks were taking over the world” and that “someone needed to do something about it for the white race,” according to Joey Meek, who tipped the FBI when he saw his friend on surveillance images. oof also told him he used birthday R money from his parents to buy a .45 Glock pistol before the attack, Meek said. The affidavit said Roof’s father and uncle also called authorities after seeing surveillance photos, and that the father said Roof owned a .45-calibre gun. Brooks said hate crimes take aim at collective values, but “we have never allowed ourselves to be victims, we have never capitulated, we have never laid prostate before the demagogue of racism in this country.” “This is a moment in which we say to them, the white nationalists movement, those purveyors of hate, we as Americans will not subscribe to that philosophy. We
will not give up, we will not give in,” he said. Roof was arrested in North Carolina after an alert motorist recognized him, and returned in shackles to a county jail where he was being held next to the cell of Michael Slager, the white former police officer charged with fatally shooting black motorist Walter Scott in neighbouring North Charleston. t was the third arrest for Roof, who Iworkers was quizzed by police in February after at the Columbiana shopping mall said he appeared dressed entirely in black, asking strange questions about employee movements and closing times. He was charged then with possessing suboxone, a drug typically used to treat heroin addiction. A trespassing charge was added after he showed up again in April, prompting a three-year ban from the mall. The victims of the church shooting included Clementa Pinckney, a state senator who doubled as the church’s lead pastor, and eight others who each played multiple roles in their communities and families: ministers and coaches, teachers and a librarian, counsellors and choir singers and the church sexton who kept the historic building clean. “The suspect entered the group and was accepted by them, as they believed that he wanted to join them in this Bible study,” Charleston County Coroner Rae Wilson said. Then, “he became very aggressive and violent.”
The Justice Department is investigating whether to file federal hate crime charges, although Attorney General Loretta Lynch said state prosecutions are sometimes more appropriate. Obama pointed to lax gun controls as a factor, and complained that Washington politics have shut down efforts to require universal background checks for gun purchases. Most of the presidential candidates avoided mentioning guns at all. Spilling blood inside the “Mother Emanuel” church, founded in 1816, evoked painful memories of the racist violence that black churches have so often suffered, and the values their congregations have tried to uphold in response. “For me, I’m a work in progress and I acknowledge that I’m very angry,” said Bethane Middleton-Brown, who appeared in court on behalf of her sister, the Rev. DePayne Middleton Doctor. “We have no room for hate. We have to forgive. I pray God on your soul. And I also thank God I won’t be around when your judgment day comes with him.” Pinckney, 41, was a married father of two and a Democrat who spent 19 years in the South Carolina legislature. The other eight victims were named as Cynthia Hurd, 54; Tywanza Sanders, 26; Myra Thompson, 59; Ethel Lance, 70; Susie Jackson, 87; and the reverends DePayne Middleton Doctor, 49; Sharonda Coleman-Singleton, 45; and Daniel Simmons Sr., 74.

U.S. Treasury considers women on $10 bills MARTIN CRUTSINGER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Harriet Tubman? Eleanor Roosevelt? Rosa Parks? Speculation is rising over which American woman will be chosen to grace the $10 bill, which has featured Alexander Hamilton since 1929. The answer will come sometime after summer, after Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew considers suggestions from anyone who wants to offer one — through town hall meetings or online. Whoever is chosen by Lew will be the first woman to appear on U.S. paper currency in more than a century. The bill’s actual design won’t be unveiled until 2020, the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment giving women the right to vote. Treasury has created a website — www.thenew10.treasury. gov — for Americans to submit suggestions. The public can propose both which woman should be chosen and which symbols of democracy should be included in the redesigned bill. Comments can also be submitted on Twitter using the hashtag #TheNew10. “We are asking the American people to tell us what democracy

means to them,” Lew told reporters. “Their feedback will shape what the new bill will look like.” The first information sessions will be in Fort Worth, Texas, on June 24 and Washington on July 15 at the two printing facilities that the Bureau of Engraving and Printing uses to produce the nation’s paper money. The effort to put a woman on the currency began as a grassroots effort with a group known
as Women on 20s launching a petition campaign to urge President Barack Obama to replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill with a woman. Last summer, Obama expressed support for the effort. He said he had received a letter from a young girl suggesting such a change. In a speech Thursday, Lew said the young letter writer, a nine-year-old third grader named
Sofia, had triggered an outpouring of support. “Sofia’s letter clearly struck a chord with Americans across the country, with thousands of our fellow citizens responding to her letter,” Lew told an audience at the National Archives where he outlined plans for the currency change, calling it a “small step with big significance.” Lew offered no hints of whom he might choose, saying he first
wanted to hear the views of the public. But the Women on 20s group conducted an Internet poll in which more than 600,000 votes were cast. Harriet Tubman, the African-American abolitionist, emerged as the winner. In that poll, which asked people to first pick three finalists from among 15 women, Eleanor Roosevelt came in second, followed by Rosa Parks, the civil rights heroine, and Wilma Mankiller, the first woman to serve as chief of the Cherokee Nation. By law, only the portrait of a deceased person can appear on the nation’s banknotes. Treasury officials said that Hamilton, the nation’s first Treasury secretary, will not disappear from the redesigned $10 bill. They said they expect his image to be retained in some way on the redesigned bill. The paper currency has been an all-male domain for more than a century. The last woman featured on U.S. paper money was Martha Washington, who appeared on a dollar silver certificate from 1891 to 1896. The only other woman featured on U.S. paper money was Pocahontas, from 1865 to 1869. Susan B. Anthony and Sacagawea are on dollar coins.

Mariners set for double-header Chris Merriman takes his team on the road without six starters as Mid Isle look to keep title bid alive ROSS ARMOUR DAILY NEWS
Whether or not the Mid Isle Mariners become Pacific Coast Soccer League champions at the end of this spring league season may depend a lot on the outcome of this weekend’s fixtures. The Mariners kick off backto-back road games in the interior today as they take on the Kamloops Heat before what head coach Chris Merriman has described as a “massive” game Sunday against league leaders the Vancouver United. The team also heads into the two games without a string of key players — with Chris Arnett, Riley O’Neill, James Merriman, Taylor Arbour, Mateo Kostering and Matt Mehrassa all missing out for a variety of reasons. All six played key roles in an undefeated weekend last time out. As a result, coach Merriman has admitted the road trip will be a tough test, but hopes some of the younger players shine through to keep the championship quest on track. “It’s a big test, we’re tough on numbers going into it that’s for sure,” said Merriman. “But hopefully the young players will be able to step up in place of the

guys who are missing. The youth we have all have the quality to keep us moving forward.” Merriman will look to the likes of Blaze Roberts and leading goalscorer Jordan de Graaf to
deliver the goods this weekend. The Mariners sit third in the table, three points behind United and 13 ahead of the Heat, with only five more games to go after the weekend is complete.
Merriman says he will continue with his squad rotation system, that has worked well so far, in order to give all players on the roster game time and maintain a level of freshness heading into
Sunday’s showdown in the Lower Mainland. “We don’t have a big bench (this weekend) and we don’t even have a full 18 to take with us to Kamloops. So they’ll all be getting minutes, but that’s the way it’s been pretty much every game apart from a couple of tough games we had. We’ve had a good mix.” United are the only team to have beaten the Mariners so far this season. In April, the Vancouverites arrived at Merle Logan Field and delivered a clinical display that saw three second half goals secure a 3-0 win. “That was a tough game as we were only like three weeks into the season and we still didn’t have some of the guys that hadn’t signed for us yet. After that we were able to get the fitness up, get some more players in and put together a good run of results,” said the coach. Kickoff in Kamloops today is 5 p.m. at Exhibition Park. Sunday’s game in Vancouver starts at 2 p.m. at Memorial South Turf. Ross.Armour @nanaimodailynews.com 250-729-4230

DAILY NEWS
Four Nanaimo Track and Field Club athletes have made it onto the provincial junior team. Jason Clare, Sean Miller, Alyssa Mousseau and Jenaya Pynn have all earned a spot on the team for the 2015 season. The quartet are in Ottawa this weekend to represent their province in the Combined Events Championship and will also head to Edmonton to do the same at the Canadian Junior & Senior National Championships from July 2-5.
Clare is ranked first in Canada will compete in pole vault. The junior team call-up adds to his recent success after also meeting the standard for the IAAF World Championships. Miller will race in the 5000m event. Currently ranked fifth in Canada for 3000m, Miller’s success in that event helped him qualify for the longer distance. Mousseau is the senior women’s B.C. high school 800m champion and will compete at that distance of which she is ranked fourth in Canada.
Pynn will run in the 1,500m race and is also ranked fifth in Canada at this distance. Recent results include second place for Clare at the Jesse Bent Memorial Track and Field Meet in Coquitlam last weekend. Mousseau and Pynn were also in action at the Portland Track Festival in Oregon. Mousseau finished ninth in section 2 of the women’s high performance 800m run and Pynn won the women’s open 1,500m race. sports@nanaimodailynews.com

NEW YORK — Alex Rodriguez has homered for his 3,000th career hit, becoming the 29th major league player to reach the milestone. The New York Yankees star connected Friday night. He did it at Yankee Stadium in the first inning against Detroit ace Justin Verlander. The crowd erupted as the ball sailed into the seats in right field. Rodriguez was greeted by his teammates between the plate and the dugout. Rodriguez will turn 40 next month. The three-time AL MVP has enjoyed a resurgent year as a designated hitter after sitting out all last season while serving a drug suspension. Rodriguez became the first player in the big leagues to get 3,000 hits since another Yankees great Derek Jeter homered from the very same batter’s box in 2011.

Masters champion Spieth shares U.S. Open lead with Patrick Reed
B.C. Lions lose to Eskimos in pre-season
Dustin Johnson drops one behind leaders after three bogeys over last five holes
VANCOUVER — Travis Lulay was solid in his first live action in more than nine months on Friday as the B.C. Lions dropped an 18-13 decision to the Edmonton Eskimos in CFL exhibition play. Coming off two seasons marred by injuries to his throwing shoulder, Lulay hooked up with Manny Arceneaux for a 22-yard touchdown pass on the game’s first series and finished 8-of-13 for 121 yards in two quarters of work before taking a seat at halftime. Lulay was 3-for-3 on the scoring drive and linked up with Austin Collie on two long passes later in the half, but also missed a few makeable throws, including one over the middle to a wide-open Brian Burnham. Perhaps more importantly, Lulay took a couple hits and came out unscathed. With backup quarterback John Beck still out with an illness, rookies Jonathan Jennings and Greg McGhee split time in the second half for the Lions. Richie Leone, who is competing with Anthony Fera for the kicking job after B.C. cut veteran Paul McCallum five days into training camp, missed field-goal attempts of 38 and 44 yards before making one from 24 yards. Fera made his only field-goal attempt from 48 yards. On the Edmonton side, James Franklin threw a touchdown to Kenny Stafford, while Grant Shaw made just 3 of 7 field-goal attempts, with two of the misses going for single points. Starting quarterback Mike Reilly played the first two series before sitting out the rest of the game. The Eskimos open their regular season on June 27 in Fort McMurray, Alta., against the Toronto Argonauts, while the Lions have a bye in Week 1 before kicking off their schedule on the road in Ottawa against the Redblacks on July 4.
DOUG FERGUSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
UNIVERSITY PLACE, Wash. — Unbeaten as Ryder Cup teammates, Patrick Reed and Jordan Spieth now chase a U.S. Open title this weekend at Chambers Bay. Spieth overcame a double bogey on an 18th hole that he called “the dumbest he has ever played” for a 3-under 67. Reed made only two pars over his final 12 holes, a wild ride that resembled putts on these heavily sloped greens, and had to settle for a 69. They were tied for the lead on a day that included Jason Day collapsing to the ground because of vertigo, Tiger Woods posting the highest 36-hole score of his pro career and Rory McIlroy making everything from eagle to double bogey on a course that gave him nothing more than two more days to figure it out. Dustin Johnson was in the mix for the longest time until making three bogeys over his last five holes for a 71. Johnson was one shot behind, along with Branden Grace of South Africa, who matched Spieth with a 67. Sixteen players remained under par. Spieth is the only one with experience winning a major. And it’s clear he’s not just satisfied with one. The 21-year-old Texan surged into the lead with birdies, calmed himself after a double bogey at the turn, and then tended to Day on the par-3 ninth hole when the Australian crashed to the ground in a frightening moment. Day later was diagnosed with vertigo. Helped to his feet, he managed to finish the hole and shot 70 to wind up three shots behind. He was hopeful of playing Saturday. Spieth also gathered himself

and closed with a birdie to be the first one to reach 5-under 135. Not since Woods in 2002 has anyone won the Masters and U.S. Open in the same year. Spieth still has a long way to go, and he realizes it will only get harder on a course that already is perplexing. Reed has heard about the adage that par is always a good score at the U.S. Open. He opted for three birdies, an eagle and five bogeys over the final three hours, at times going from the lead to trailing but always in the mix.
Reed and Spieth were rookie teammates at Gleneagles last September, going 2-0-1 in their partnership, a rare bright spot in another American loss. That’s history. Now they’re chasing it individually, with loads of company. Tony Finau, the powerful PGA Tour rookie making his major championship debut, let it rip on his way to a 68. He was in the group at 3-under 137 that included Joost Luiten of The Netherlands (69), Daniel Summerhays (67) and Ben Martin (70). Woods, again, was never in the
picture — not the tournament, not on television. Fox rarely showed him, except for a few shots, including the opening hole when Woods was so far left up a dune that he slipped and fell while trying to size up the shot. He had a 76 and missed the cut for the second time in the last three majors. His 36-hole total was 156, one worse than the 155 he had at the Phoenix Open. He has one more tournament, The Greenbrier Classic in two weeks, before going to St. Andrews for the British Open.

Blue Jays win ninth straight at home GREGORY STRONG THE CANADIAN PRESS
Toronto’s Marco Estrada had a no-hit bid broken up in the eighth inning and Edwin Encarnacion drove in a pair of runs as the Blue Jays held on for a 5-4 win over the Baltimore Orioles on Friday night at Rogers Centre. The testy affair between the American League East rivals was intense from the start, with Blue Jays manager John Gibbons ejected in the first inning after Jose Bautista was grazed by a pitch. The Blue Jays (37-32) put up five runs over the first three innings to give Estrada an early cushion. The 31-year-old right-hander retired 15 batters in a row until pinch-hitter Jimmy Paredes led off the eighth inning with a single. Estrada (5-3), who threw 118 pitches, was pulled after the hit and given a standing ovation as he walked to the dugout. He issued four walks and allowed one earned run while striking out six. Roberto Osuna came on in relief and gave up an RBI single to Chris Parmelee. The young right-hander hit Adam Jones with a pitch later in the inning and was tossed from the game along with bench coach DeMarlo Hale. Steve Delabar got the final two outs of the eighth and Brett Cecil gave up two runs in a nervous ninth before holding on for his fifth save. Cecil struck out slugger Chris Davis with runners on the corners to end it. Home-plate umpire C.B. Bucknor warned both dugouts after Bautista was hit by Orioles starter Mike Wright. Bautista, who had some words for the Baltimore dugout while standing on first base, came around to score on Encarnacion’s double. Justin Smoak then drove in Encarnacion with a double. Wright (2-3) got into a jam again in the second inning. He loaded the bases with one out and walked Bautista on four pitches. The Blue Jays added another run in the third inning after Chris Colabello doubled and took third on a throwing error by Parmelee in right field. Colabello scored on a sacrifice fly by Dioner Navarro.

outh played three rounds of clubs, ending in dummy, as East discarded the deuce of hearts. The ace of diamonds was followed by successful finesse of the ten. The diamond king felled the queen and the ten of spades was led towards the table. West wisely rose with the ace since it was clear that that the contract could not be defeated. If he ducked, declarer would claim thirteen tricks when he also held the heart queen. Twelve tricks were in the bank, N-S +1440. The club division made East a slight favorite to hold the diamond queen since he owned eleven vacant spaces to West’s nine. Declarer could pick up a 4-1 diamond break when East began with a singleton eight or nine by cashing the king to continue with the ten for a second round hook. When West covers and East shows out on the ace, South returns to hand for a finesse of dummy’s seven. However, a 3-2 diamond division was much more likely than a 4-1 split. On a rare day, N-S might be missing both top spades and the slam would be in jeopardy. The slam would still be successful in the absence of a spade lead since South would, in this scenario, hold the red- suit queens. He would swiftly claim twelve tricks via five diamonds, four clubs and three heart tricks! Author: Dave Willis - visit his website at www.insidebridge.ca

Clint Dempsey suspended for three matches THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Seattle forward Clint Dempsey was suspended for three games by Major League Soccer on Friday and fined for his conduct toward a match official during a U.S. Open Cup game this week, a penalty the U.S. captain will finish serving before the Americans start the defence of their CONCACAF Gold Cup title next month. MLS Commissioner Don Garber concluded Dempseyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s behav-
iour was â&#x20AC;&#x153;referee abuse,â&#x20AC;? which requires a minimum three-game suspension, and not â&#x20AC;&#x153;referee assault,â&#x20AC;? which has a minimum six-game ban. Dempsey was punished for a confrontation with a referee Tuesday in the Soundersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; fourth-round loss to rival Portland, when he grabbed a notebook from the official and tore it after a teammate was given a red card. Dempsey could face further discipline from a panel established by the U.S. Soccer Federation, but any
additional suspension would be limited to U.S. Open Cup matches. He will miss league games against San Jose on Saturday, Philadelphia on Wednesday and Portland on June 28. While Dempsey would have had to sit out U.S. national team games during the suspension, the Americans do not play until a July 3 exhibition against Guatemala, four days before the Americans start the Gold Cup against. Referee abuse is defined as conduct that â&#x20AC;&#x153;threatens through a
physical act or verbal statement, either explicitly or implicitly.â&#x20AC;? Part of the definition of referee assault is â&#x20AC;&#x153;damaging the refereeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s uniform or personal property (e.g., car, uniform, or equipment).â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do not tolerate conduct of this nature from any of our players,â&#x20AC;? MLS Deputy Commissioner Mark Abbott said in a statement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No matter how passionate our players are or what happens in the â&#x20AC;&#x2122;heat of the moment,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; they must always respect all aspects of the game, especially the referees.â&#x20AC;?

Playing at home a double-edged sword for Canada at World Cup Canada take on Switzerland with the winner advancing to the quarterfinal stage NEIL DAVIDSON THE CANADIAN PRESS
The stakes are suddenly much higher for Canada at the Women’s World Cup. So are the distractions. Coach John Herdman’s message ahead of Canada’s roundof-16 match with No. 19 Switzerland at B.C. Place Stadium on Sunday is essentially keep your eye on the prize. “We know we’re never going to get this opportunity back again so we have to make sure that coming into B.C. we focus on task, which is to beat the Swiss,” Herdman said. “Coming here there’s added distractions because it is people’s home town. More people are asking questions about tickets, people want access to the players — family and friends. But it’s making sure that we’re really on task and diligent with our planning and processes going into the game.” The players get four tickets per game. “The ones that truly support you, those are the ones not expecting the free ticket. They just want to be part of my journey,” veteran goalkeeper Karina LeBlanc, a native of nearby Maple Ridge, said prior to the tournament. Vancouver is the Canadian team’s home away from home. During their time in residency ahead of the tournament, they

lived together in a downtown condo. This time they are staying at a FIFA hotel. Home support is part of Herdman’s master plan for success for the eighth-ranked Canadians. He had his players actively campaign for fans to show their colours at Canadian games. But that attention comes at a cost. Herdman, who also calls
Vancouver home, did his homework ahead of the tournament. German officials told him of the overwhelming pressure the home side was under at the 2011 World Cup. So he did his best to put his team under stress ahead of the competition by bringing top teams to Canada to expose his entire roster to big crowds so they could be “comfortable feeling uncomfortable in that spotlight.”
Herdman, known for his work ethic and meticulous approach to detail, says his campaign blueprint is detailed but flexible. That was shown prior to the second tournament game against New Zealand when the coach said his players were allowing too much “into their world, their mind.” The Canadian braintrust put in “some new strategies” to reduce mental clutter and distractions— from visitors to Twitter.

Montreal Impact set to face second straight expansion opponent in Kaka-led Orlando City BILL BEACON THE CANADIAN PRESS
MONTREAL — Expansion teams in Major League Soccer are not the collections of cast-offs found in other North American sports leagues. No one knows that better than Montreal Impact coach Frank Klopas, who was a striker for the Chicago Fire squad that won both the MLS championship and U.S. Open Cup as a first-year franchise in 1998. “We won the double,” Klopas recalled Friday. “Things are different now, but always with expansion teams, it takes time but if you have quality, it’ll come together.” The Impact (4-5-2) face an expansion team for a second straight week Saturday night at Saputo Stadium when they take on Orlando City (5-5-5). Orlando has used a five-game unbeaten run to reach third place in the Eastern Conference with 20 points. Last weekend, the Impact fell 3-1 at Yankee Stadium to newcomers New York City. In MLS, teams sign their best players as free agents, mostly
KAKA
from Europe or South America, so they can bypass a slow build to respectability through the draft. Orlando did that by signing Brazilian star Kaka, their scoring leader with seven goals, and adding veterans with MLS experience such as French defender Aurelien Collin and former Stoke City and Dallas FC defender Brek Shea. They also found a pearl with the first overall SuperDraft pick Cyle Larin, a forward back from a stint with Canada’s national team. The Impact and Orlando played to a 2-2 draw at Olympic Stadium
on March 28. Montreal saw a 2-0 lead evaporate on goals a minute apart from Kaka and fellow Brazilian Pedro Ribeiro. This time, they’ll play on a grass pitch, with the Impact in better form than at the start of the campaign when their focus was on the CONCACAF Champions League. Montreal has won four of the last six, including three straight at home. In any other league, the Impact would still be considered an expansion team. They joined MLS in 2012 after 19 seasons in other leagues. Montreal made the playoffs a year later but slipped to last overall last season. “I’ve been here since we were an expansion team so I understand what it takes to break through,” said goalkeeper Evan Bush. “Orlando’s done that. New York City’s still in a position where they’re trying to figure it out. “Orlando is in a good position. It has a good collection of stars like Kaka but also guys that have been in the league and know what it takes to have success in this league.
“There’s so much parity in this league that an expansion team is just another team when it comes in.” The Impact went into New York last week following a first road win in Columbus. But Montreal fell behind early and was unable to climb back despite controlling most of the second half. “We were on top of the game for the most part,” said Bush. “There were a couple of mistakes that directly led to goals. “If we can cut those out and be sharper and stay on top of the game, we won’t have to chase the game.” Klopas said while midfielder Dilly Duka (concussion) and forward Dominic Oduro (groin) were close to returning, neither is likely to play. Cameroon defender Ambroise Oyongo is back from international duty and is ready. A Klopas teammate on the 1998 Fire was Jesse Marsh, the Impact’s expansion-year coach who now coaches the New York Red Bulls. Klopas scored the “golden goal” in the U.S. Open Cup final that year.
NBA
Cleveland Cavaliers coach David Blatt says LeBron’s ‘heart was in the right place’ TOM WITHERS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
INDEPENDENCE, Ohio — Even after guiding a team wrecked by injuries to the NBA Finals in his first season, Cleveland Cavaliers coach David Blatt can’t escape a narrative that’s shadowed him for months. His relationship with superstar LeBron James remains a trendy, touchy topic. On Thursday, as a national column painted an unflattering portrait of how James treated him during post-season games, Blatt said he considers coaching the four-time MVP a privilege and they have a positive connection. “People sometimes judge things on a game or on a period of time and they forget that we’re in there working together and striving to make the utmost of our team and of our situation day to day,” Blatt said, “and a bond develops over time that is a lot more than what meets the eye.”
Whitecaps continue road trip against New York Red Bulls
Two days after the Cavaliers’ season ended with a Game 6 loss to Golden State in the NBA Finals, Blatt and general manager David Griffin both addressed the team’s upcoming plans to rebuild its roster, re-sign several core players including James, Kevin Love and Tristan Thompson and improve a bench — aging at the back end — that didn’t provide enough help against the Warriors. And while there’s plenty of work to be done, Blatt, who said he “absolutely” intends to return next season, doesn’t believe his bridge with James needs major repair. It’s no secret that James didn’t always seem engaged with his coach during timeouts — anyone who watched the Cavs this season witnessed that — and there were times when he disagreed with Blatt, even questioned his strategies. But James’ respect for Blatt seemed to grow as the season went on.
In fact, following Tuesday’s pregame shoot-around before Game 6, James and Blatt walked off the court at Cleveland Clinic Courts with their arms around each other. Blatt, who joined the Cavs last year after winning numerous titles in Europe, was asked if he adjusted his coaching style to accommodate James, the world’s best player. “Absolutely, yes,” he said. “He is a galvanizing player. He is our best player. He’s the league’s best player. He’s a winner. He’s a proven champion. I think it’s important that he feels empowered and at the same time that he knows that he’s very much a part of this team. He’s exhibited that, and always put the team’s success beyond his. “Now if he has felt that he has something to say and wants to impose his will in terms of influencing in a positive way on those around him, that’s a good thing. That’s a good thing for all, and
I certainly encourage that and certainly respected the fact that LeBron’s heart was in the right place.” Griffin pointed out that just two weeks ago James, in the midst of a playoff run made more challenging because of season-ending injuries to Love and Kyrie Irving, praised Blatt’s performance this season by saying he had done “a hell of a job.” “That’s what the man said,” said Griffin, who agreed with James’ assessment, adding the Cavs went 33-3 in their last 36 games in which James, Love and Irving played together. Griffin has grown tired of the negativity directed at Blatt. “It never has to go away because it’s all conjecture,” he said. “So I think one thing David did as well as anybody I’ve ever seen, and I wish I did better, was just ignore the noise from the media perspective. Because frankly, none of that means anything.”
Carl Robinson knows exactly where the second act of his soccer life began. The no-nonsense midfielder already wanted to get into coaching when he joined the New York Red Bulls in 2010, and it was at that club where he would eventually get a foot in the door. Fast-forward five years and Robinson is now the head coach of the Vancouver Whitecaps, but remains grateful for the chance he was afforded under former Red Bulls boss Hans Backe. “It’s something I’ll never forget. I think people sometimes tend to forget where you come from and the opportunity you were given,” said Robinson. “I’m in a very fortunate position now as the head coach of this team, but Hans Backe was fantastic with me. A massive influence on my career.” Robinson’s final season on the field in 2011 was spent in the dual role of player-coach under Backe at New York. After he retired, Robinson joined the Whitecaps’ staff as an assistant and is now in his second season in charge. “(Backe) taught me a hell of a lot,” said the 38-year-old Robinson. “I still go back to the book that I kept notes on when I was working under him. “When I need advice, which I do now and again, he’s one that I usually go to.” Whatever advice Robinson has received from Backe, who left the Red Bulls in 2012, or anyone else this season seems to be working, especially on the road. The Whitecaps (8-6-2) visit the Red Bulls (4-4-5) on Saturday in their third of five straight away games while B.C. Place Stadium is occupied for the FIFA Women’s World Cup. An impressive 4-3-1 on the road this season in Major League Soccer, Robinson’s men are coming off a bye week following the club’s first-ever away win over the Los Angeles Galaxy on June 6, a result that snapped the reigning champions’ 29-game unbeaten streak at home. New York, meanwhile, has lost three straight in the league, but did pick up a victory in U.S. Open Cup action on Tuesday. “Obviously they’re going through a tricky patch now, but they’re playing well. They’ve got good players,” said Robinson. “If we go with the same mentality as we did to L.A. and we’re disciplined, we’re organized, we’ll get our chances.” The Whitecaps also had a bright start to 2014 in Robinson’s rookie season at the helm, but they stumbled in the summer months and are hungry to avoid a similar swoon. “We can’t take our foot off the gas,” said Vancouver defender Jordan Harvey. “It’s very important that we maintain this focus, the concentration on the field, and continue doing what we’re doing.” Goals remain an issue for the Whitecaps, who have scored just 18 over their 16 games so far this season. The team has only scored five in eight of its outings on the road. But players and coaches alike continue to be reassured by the fact that the chances are always there. “The goals will come,” said Harvey. “I think we’ve been saying that a lot. It’s pretty redundant, but we truly believe that.” Apart from another tough road test, Robinson is eager for his first game in charge at Red Bull Arena, a stadium where he soaked up valuable lessons from his mentor. “(Backe’s) honest, he’s up front, he’s very detailed and disciplined,” said Robinson. “You’ve got to treat players in a certain way. Every individual’s different, but it’s more about the team. He taught me how to deal with top players. “Watching him in action every day was very interesting, to say the least.”

HOROSCOPE by Jacqueline Bigar
ARIES (March 21April 19) You might be acting as if the first day of summer has come a day early, and you could be feeling unusually spirited. You will have a great time no matter what if you just go with the flow. A loved one will delight in your mood. Tonight: Celebrate whatever you want. TAURUS (April 20May 20) Zero in on what is important to you. Invite others over later in the evening for a nice, relaxing time. You love your place when it is fixed up like you want it to be. You also love your friends, and they are highly appreciative of your efforts. Tonight: Get the most out of every moment. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You have a way of drawing others in, but once you turn up the charisma, you’ll become irresistible. People won’t be able to ignore you. An unexpected good deed or a surprising statement from a friend will just add to the excitement of the day. Tonight: Hang with friends. CANCER (June 21July 22) Be more forthright in how you deal with a gift. You might opt to indulge a loved one with a very special day where you plan an adventure that is sure to make him or her smile. Be spontaneous and go for a different type of experience. Tonight: Be where there is music.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) The Moon in your sign allows you to draw in what you desire, as long as you know what it is. Otherwise, you will have to see what your subconscious wants by what plays out today. Maintain a sense of humour and stay open. Tonight: You could go for hours and hours. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Note how much is going on around you. In fact, you might want to grab the opportunity to vanish when others are so busy and distracted. Be sure to take a day just for you. Don’t hesitate to be unavailable for at least a little while. Tonight: You decide what works for you. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You might want to think through a problem with greater care, but your friends and others around you are unlikely to permit you to have a single quiet moment. Get into the celebratory mood. A loved one might be full of surprises. Tonight: Where your friends are. SCORPIO (Oct. 23Nov. 21) You might need to handle a responsibility that could involve a demanding individual. A conversation could be difficult. You know what you want, and it probably doesn’t involve being tied up with this person. Make your escape in the afternoon. Tonight: In good company. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might desire a change of pace.
Know that a surprise that heads your way could force you to adjust your plans. It is quite possible that you’ll head out to visit with a friend whom you don’t often get to see. Tonight: Let go, and be a little naughty. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19) You might want to understand what is happening with a loved one. The unexpected runs rampant, especially with your family. Go with the flow, as you cannot change what is happening. A loved one will be delighted by your presence. Tonight: Special time with a loved one. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18) You are likely to note that others seem unusually jovial. Listen to what is happening with a favourite person. You could decide to hang out with him or her. Watch closely at this individual’s ability to make the most of every moment of the day. Tonight: Go for something fun. PISCES (Feb. 19March 20) You might not want to see a situation differently, but someone around you will try to help you see another point of view. Use caution with your funds, and don’t immediately agree to an adventure that could be costly. Tonight: Play it light and easy.
drop in your lap. August could be a very fortunate month with relationships, communication and your daily life in general. You easily could be extravagant with your spending. Be careful. If you are single, you are
likely to meet someone special by fall. You will want to settle in and spend more time with this person. If you are attached, as a couple, you might be considering a new addition to your home that adds to the quality of your life.
LEO tends to energize you and encourage you to be more open. BORN TODAY Singer/songwriter Lionel Richie (1949), actor John Goodman (1952), actress Nicole Kidman (1967)

Mediator can help with mom’s wishes Kathy Mitchell & Marcy Sugar Annie’s Mailbox Dear Annie: My mother had a stroke seven months ago and now cannot walk, read or speak. She will never be able to return to her house, which will need to be sold should she run out of money for the care facility where she lives. Her house sits exactly as she left it, full of her things, and we maintain her lawn and check her mailbox for monthly bills. I see no reason to hang onto the house. I think it honours Mom for her children to fairly divide her things and to care for, love and admire those
items that she holds dear. It would make us feel closer to her to have some tangible items, and they all hold wonderful memories. Here’s the problem: One of my sisters thinks it is exceedingly disrespectful to take Mom’s things from the house while she is still living. But I think it would please Mom to see her things cherished by her kids. Why is that disrespectful? This has caused quite a ruckus amongst the six kids, and no one wants to hurt the others’ feelings. What do you think? — Sibling Unrest Dear Sibling: Can Mom communicate her wishes? Has she ever expressed a desire to distribute her

things to her children? Many parents do this when their children leave home, because they want to scale down their possessions. They enjoy the act of giving while they can see your appreciation. We think your sister fears that selling the house or taking Mom’s things would be rushing Mom’s death, and this is why she finds it disrespectful. A mediator could help all of you work through these issues and avoid the rancour that too often happens between siblings when a parent can no longer make these decisions. The care facility should be able to recommend someone.
