The hazy days of summer C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor
There was a definite hint of smoke in the air this weekend in the Kimberley/Cranbrook area, along with an orange tint to the sun in the smoky sky. The smoke is mainly the result of a 180 hectare fire in the St. Mary Alpine Park area, about 40 kilometres northwest of Kimberley. The good news is the

Kimberley to apply to host Mine Rescue C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor
Kimberley may not have an operating mine anymore, but the community is still very aware of its beginnings and wants to keep the mining heritage alive. To that end, Council has agreed to submit a bid to host the 2016 and 2017 Provincial Mine Rescue Competition. The Ministry of Mines prefers a two year hosting agreement so all the various equipment can be stored in each town for the next year, reducing transportation costs. As pointed out by Economic Development Director Kevin Wilson in a report to Council, costs to the City will be fairly minimal, at under $3000
depending on which facility is selected and staff time, and the economic benefit in the range of $134,000 to $357,000. Those figures are arrived at by assuming an expenditure of $125 per day per person on food, accommodation, entertainment and shopping. It is expected that 300 to 400 people will spend three to six days in Kimberley. Kimberley was invited to bid for the competition by the Ministry of Energy and Mines. Council took the invitation as an indication that once the bid was in, Kimberley was assured to host the event. Alan Day of the Ministry said the Chief Inspector of Mines looks for several things when

fire is not threatening any communities or structures as it burns in a remote area. The Southeast Fire Centre has Wildfire Service personnel monitoring the fire, and reports that, depending on local weather patterns, smoke from this fire will continue to be visible, but it is not a threat to the community. At present this is the only fire of note in the Southeast District.

Three days in the Bugaboos Pat Morrow, Chair, Conr ad K ain Centennial Societ y
It wasn’t looking too good for this year’s Conrad Kain Bugaboos Teens climbing camp. On the morning of July 25, a team of ten East Kootenay youths, three ACMG guides, a BC Parks ranger, a mountain author and I set out from the Conrad Kain hut into a light drizzle, hoping for a break in the weather. We had practiced violent art of self arrest with our ice axes on steep snow slopes the day before, and today we hoped to tackle one of the iconic granite peaks that makes this area so famous in the mountaineering world. However, the malevolent weather gods assured us that we’d have to be content with learning about roped travel on the remnant glacier beneath the east face of Snowpatch Spire, and pray for visibility so we could at least get a glimpse of the peaks we had come to climb. After some hours, the outing turned out to be a test of the waterproofness of our rain garments, and our patience for coping with hypothermic conditions. We decided to abandon this character-building exercise and head back to the warmth and camaraderie of the hut. It was here that we first heard radio reports of climbers stranded on Howser Spire, the highest in the Bugab o o range. A team
of two had ignored the weather warnings of the day before, and were now lost in the clouds with an airborne SAR team from Golden trying to locate them. In the very last light of day the clouds parted and the rescue chopper was able to sling them to safety. They were lucky to emerge from their lapse in mountaineering judgment with only superficial bruises to their pride. Our third and final day dawned clear, but with a forecast of more rain on the way, we got an early start. A couple hours later, with route-finding and roped assistance from veteran guides Jennifer Olson and Tim McAllister we stood atop 2697 meter East Post spire, watching the clouds roil behind Snowpatch and Bugaboo Spires. Satiated, we lowered off this fantastic vantage point just as the first flakes of snow began to alight on our upturned faces. Another year, another seminal experience shared by a great group of kids – Christine Constable, Matt Swallow, Ben Wiegert, Bryn Muir, Nathan Cuell and Kieran Moore from Invermere, Kennedy Sterzer from Kimberley, Josie Ruoss from Cranbrook, and Maya Streloff and Karlee Hall from Jaf-
fray. Despite the inclement weather, Josie Ruoss was impressed: “The Bugaboos are something I believe everyone should experience to truly appreciate the beautiful world we live in. I feel refreshed, humbled and inspired to create some more artwork. I am excited for my next adventures in the mountains.” The CKCS would like to thank the Alpine Club of Canada, BC Hydro, the Columbia Basin Trust, the Association of Canadian Mountain Guides, Canadian Mountain Holidays, BC Parks, the membership of the CKCS, Leigh Cormier – teacher of the Outdoor Ed class at Mt Baker high school in Cranbrook, and the many others who contributed their time toward this annual event, including the parents who provided the shuttle service to and from the trail head.

The Ministry of Mines have a contingent of about forty to forty-five people in town for a full week doing set-up. “I think it’s a won-
derful idea,” Coun. Albert Hoglund said earlier this summer when the proposal was presented to Council. “Just because the mine is closed doesn’t mean the city can’t host the competition. We have the conference centre and all kinds of facilities.” “It is a big, big part of our heritage,” said Mayor Don McCormick.

Israel: Everybody is a Minority
R
euven Rivlin, the president of Israel, is an outspoken man, but he knows when to hold his fire. He condemned the killing of an 18-month-old Palestinian child in an arson attack in the West Bank by suspected Jewish settlers last Friday as “terrorism”, but he did not say that the suspects were from the extreme wing of the “national religious tribe”. Rivlin has not yet commented publicly on the knife attack on Gay Pride marchers in Jerusalem the previous day that wounded six people (one of whom, 16-year-old Shira Banki, has now died of her wounds). But if and when he does, he will not point out that the killer, Yishai Schlissel, belongs to the extremist fringe of the “Haredi tribe”, the ultra-Orthodox Jews who do not even recognise the legitimacy of the state of Israel. It would be wrong to use language that paints all the members of the tribes in question as accomplices in these murders, because they aren’t. Even if some of them sympathise with the actions of the murderers (and some probably do), it would still be a political mistake to alienate them further from the mainstream of Israeli society. But maybe we should re-phrase that last sentence, because in Rivlin’s view there no longer is an Israeli “mainstream”. There once was, when secular Jews, mostly of Eastern European origin, formed the majority of the population and everybody else belonged to “minorities”. But higher birth rates among those minorities have turned the secular Jews into just another minority — and he says they should really all be seen as “tribes”. He said all this two months ago, in a startlingly frank speech to the Herzliya conference, an annual event where the
country’s leaders debate issues of national policy. “In the 1990s,” he told them, “Israeli society comprised ... a large secular Zionist majority, and beside it three minority groups: a national-religious minority, an Arab minority, and a Haredi minority.” “Although this pattern remains frozen in the minds of much of the Israeli public, in the press, in the political system, all the while, the reality has totally changed. Today, the first grade classes (in Israeli schools) are composed of about 38 percent secular Jews, about 15 percent national religious, about one quarter Arabs, and close to a quarter Haredim.” The demographic changes, Rivlin said, have Gwynne created a “new Israeli order ...in which Israeli society is Dyer comprised of four population sectors, or, if you will, four principal ‘tribes’, essentially different from each other, and growing closer in size. Whether we like it or not, the makeup of the ‘stakeholders’ of Israeli society, and of the State of Israel, is changing before our eyes.” The most important implication of this change is that barely half of the children now in Israeli primary schools will grow up to be Zionists. The Arabs will not, of course, but neither will the Haredim, the ultra-Orthodox Jews who believe that the Zionist project to recreate Jewish rule in Israel is blasphemous. Only God can do that, by sending the Messiah, and the Zionist attempt to hurry it along by human means is a rebellion against God. Neither of these “tribes” even serves in the military, once the great unifying Israeli institution. Arabs are not conscripted for military service, and very few volunteer. In practice, the Haredim have been exempt from military service for all of Israel’s history as an independent state, although
parliament passed a law last year that seeks to end the exemptions. The Zionist tribes are also divided between the secular Zionists and the “national religious” tribe. The latter reconcile their Orthodox religious beliefs with the Zionist project by arguing that it was God who inspired the early Zionists in eastern Europe to build a Jewish state in Palestine, even if they did not realise it themselves. Most Jewish settlers on the West Bank, and most of their supporters in Israel proper, belong to this tribe. All these former minority tribes are to some extent alienated from the secular, liberal-democratic Zionist assumptions that underpin Israel’s current political structure. A few members of each tribe are already so alienated that they turn to violence, like the settlers who attack Palestinian children, the Israeli Arabs who run amok and kill Jews, or the Haredi fanatic who attacked the Gay Pride march. President Rivlin, “Ruvi” didn’t say that explicitly — it’s too upsetting — but he was pointing out that the emperor has no clothes. The current secular Zionist domination cannot continue; the other tribes must also come to feel safe and welcome in a different kind of Israel. Specifically, in a “one-state” Israel that includes all the territory between the river Jordan and the Mediterranean Sea. Rivlin, though an Orthodox Jew, doesn’t really belong to any of these tribes: his family has lived in Jerusalem for more than two centuries. He doesn’t believe that the “two-state solution” — one country for Jews and one for Palestinian Arabs – is viable any more, if it ever was. So he is driven to the “one-state solution”, which requires reconciliation and cooperation between all the tribes. It’s so radical that it almost makes sense. It’s just hard to believe that it could actually happen.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My wife and I have been married for seven years. She has a son from a previous marriage who got into drugs as a teen. Four years ago, my wife put her son in rehab, but he had a relapse and briefly ended up in prison. The effect it had on my wife was devastating and she began to drink. My dislike for her son increased exponentially. Last year, my wife put her son in rehab again, this time in another state. He finished the program, but while there, met another addict in a halfway house for sober living and she got pregnant. They married two weeks ago, and my wife returned from the wedding exuberant and giddy. She demanded that we allow the couple to live with us so she could give her son a second chance. I told her “no.” In response, she removed her wedding ring. My wife now plans to move out of state to live with the couple and take them out of the halfway house so she can care for the baby and rekindle her relationship with her son. I have spoken to numerous addiction experts and they all agree that the couple should remain where they are. My wife is defiant about it and has resolved to leave me. She thinks her son’s problems are all behind him now. I love my wife and don’t want to lose her. -- Crestfallen Husband Dear Crestfallen: Your wife is living in a fantasy, and her rushing in to take over her son’s life could undermine his recovery. But she believes she is helping and to some extent, that’s true. The problem is, her son needs to know that he can stand on his own feet first and he hasn’t completely done that. Would she speak to the addiction experts about this? Do her son and new daughter-inlaw understand the downside of moving out of the halfway house too soon? If you cannot convince your wife to change her mind, and you want to stay married, we recommend that you be supportive. This could work out. Having a baby together might encourage the couple to be more committed to staying clean. Your wife’s assistance could allow them to find decent jobs. Tell her you are on her side and consider this a temporary separation. We hope it is. Dear Annie: After relocating in retirement, I find people correcting or commenting negatively about my pronunciation. In 70 years, I cannot recall one incident of people doing that where I previously lived. Recently, a woman I thought of as a friend turned to another woman to comment on my pronunciation. While this has happened only a few times, it has made me uncomfortable and I have started to withdraw, keeping to myself. What can I say to people who do this? Or should I just stay home? -- Hurt and Unwelcome Dear Hurt: Please don’t stay home and isolate yourself. If you have moved to a new area, it’s likely that you have a regional accent and others simply need to get used to it. If someone says something hurtful, politely reply, “This is the way I speak. I’m sorry you find it so offensive.” We hope they will fall over themselves apologizing for their rudeness.

Jumbo Council ask province to defer small community grant
Ste ve Hubrecht Columbia Valley Pioneer
Jumbo Glacier Mountain Resort Municipality council, at its most recent meeting, decided to send notification to the provincial government, asking the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development to defer payment of the Small Community Grant, pending the outcome of the resort proponentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; appeal of the B.C. Environment Ministerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s non-substantial start decision in
June. The grant, which for the Jumbo municipality totals about $200,000 a year, far exceeds current operating expenses and has so far been put into the municipalityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s general reserves. The money has attracted criticism from resort opponents. During discussion on the matter at the Tuesday, July 21st Jumbo council meeting, Jumbo mayor Greg Deck pointed out that there is no precedent for a commu-
nity either deferring or sending back payment of the grant. He later told the Pioneer that the UBCM had indicated to the ministry that it was not keen to simply not have the grant given to Jumbo since â&#x20AC;&#x153;they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want a history of some communities getting the grant and others not. They want it consistent across the board.â&#x20AC;? Simply deferring the payment wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t set that precedent, and will save the money being transferred from the province

UN member states set goal to end poverty, hunger in 15 years Climate protection also key
Associated Press
The 193 member states of the United Nations have reached agreement on a new development agenda for the next 15 years that calls for eradicating poverty and hunger, achieving gender equality, improving living standards and taking urgent action to combat climate change. The draft agreement reached Sunday evening outlines 17 goals with 169 specific targets on issues ranging from ending poverty “in all its forms everywhere” to ensuring quality education and affordable and reliable energy, and protecting the environment. “We can be the first generation that ends global poverty, and the last generation to prevent the worst impacts of global warming before it is too late,” Secretary-General Ban Kimoon told reporters Monday. The document called “Transforming our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development” - will be adopted at a U.N. summit just before the annual meeting of world leaders at the General Assembly in late September. Ban said “the goals represent a ‘to-do’ list for people and the planet.” “They address the requirements for all humanity to be able to live decent lives free from poverty, hunger and inequality,” he said. “They commit all of us to be responsible global citizens, caring for the less fortunate as well as for our planet’s ecosystems and climate action on which all life depends.” The 17 new, non-binding goals will succeed the eight Millennium Development Goals adopted by world leaders 15 years ago. Elaine Geyer-Allely, who monitored the U.N. negotiations for WWF, the world’s largest independent conservation organization, said the new plan is a significant improvement because it recognizes that protecting the environment, eradicating poverty and promoting economic growth and well-being
are interlinked. Amina Mohammed, the U.N. special advisor on the post-2015 agenda, said more than 8,000 people engaged in setting the new goals, including for the first time representatives from hundreds of organizations, business, parliaments and youth in addition to government officials. In his final report last month on the Millennium Development Goals, Ban said the effort has helped lift more than one billion people out of extreme poverty over the last 15 years, enabled more girls to go to school than ever before, and brought unprecedented results in fighting diseases such as HIV/AIDS. Despite significant progress on all the MDGs, the only original goal that was achieved ahead of time was cutting in half the number of people living in extreme poverty, and that was due primarily to economic growth in China. Ban stressed inequality remains, with 80 per cent of the people living on less than $1.25 a day located in southern Asia and sub-Saharan Africa, and 60 per cent in just five countries, India, Nigeria, China, Bangladesh and Congo. Agreement on the new goals is the culmination of more than three years of intense and complex negotiations. Sticking points in the negotiations, which were supposed to be completed Friday, included differences over references to good governance, reproductive rights for women and occupied territories and on how to refer to climate change ahead of the December summit in Paris.

Hunters in Africa: An ex-US president, an author, a European king, a dentist Christopher Torchia Associated Press
JOHANNESBURG - In 1909-10, Theodore Roosevelt headed a Smithsonian hunting and trapping expedition in Africa that included colleagues who prepared the wildlife he killed for shipment back to America. The former U.S. president and his son, Kermit, shot hundreds of animals. “Really, I would be ashamed of myself sometimes, for I felt as if I had all the fun,” Roosevelt later said in a speech. “I would kill the rhinoceros or whatever it was, and then they would go out and do the solid, hard work of preparing it. They would spend a day or two preserving the specimen while I would go and get something else.” Despite the killing spree, Roosevelt also advocated “a happy mean” between hunting and preserving wildlife sanctuaries, foreshadowing today’s debate on hunting that has become more polarized as poaching and human encroachment have vastly reduced wildlife in sub-Saharan Africa. An international outcry erupted after an American dentist killed a well-known lion named Cecil in Zimbabwe last month in an allegedly illegal hunt. Wildlife authorities in Zimbabwe on Sunday reported another allegedly illegal lion kill involving a different American in the same area in April. Many “Big Five” hunters believe that what they do is a legitimate sport, conserves wildlife by funneling funds back into game reserves and can be the ultimate personal challenge in a natural setting. “Hunters are normal, living, nature-loving people,” said Adri Kitshoff, chief executive officer of the Professional Hunters’ Association of South Africa. “They’re not bloodthirsty killers.” Some 7,600 foreign hunters travelled to South Africa in 2013, more than half of them from America, according to association figures. Numerous slick websites tout hunting tours. South Africa’s Palala reserve offers a 7-day beginner’s “safari” for more than $5,000 in which cli-
Theodore Roosevelt with a hunted rhinoceros in Africa. ents hunt species including a large antelope and a warthog. Martin Pieters Safaris says it provides “ethical, fair-chase safaris” in Zimbabwe and describes the suspense of a leopard hunt: “In the shadows you wait . as silent and as quiet as the dark night ... this is what it is all about sitting motionless a mere 60 yards from your bait, waiting for your chance, knowing that even though you have done everything right, he still might not come, that is leopard hunting!” Critics say the Zimbabwe cases points to wider irregularities in the trophy-hunting industry. Online photos of triumphant hunters posing beside the carcasses of African wildlife only deepen the gulf for hunting opponents. Minnesota dentist Walter James Palmer lacked authorization to kill Cecil the lion, according to Zimbabwean authorities who say they will seek his extradition. The lion was lured out of Hwange National Park, wounded with a bow and then tracked down and shot,
conservationists said. Hunters can pay tens of thousands of dollars to shoot a lion, making it an exclusive club. King Juan Carlos of Spain made an elephant hunting trip to Botswana in 2012 at the height of Spain’s financial crisis. Word got out after he was injured on the expensive expedition, and his reputation plummeted. The king, who abdicated in 2014, apologized for the trip. In “African Game Trails,” an account of his expedition, Roosevelt described himself as a “hunter-naturalist” and said he and his sons’ kills included 11 elephants, 17 lions and 20 rhinos. “Game butchery is as objectionable as any other form of wanton cruelty or barbarity; but to protest against all hunting of game is a sign of softness of head, not of soundness of heart,” Roosevelt wrote. In recent years, poachers have killed tens of thousands of elephants annually to meet demand for ivory in Asia. In South Africa, home to most of the world’s rhinos, more than
1,200 were reported poached last year for their horns, which also fetch big money in Asia. Lions are designated as vulnerable on an international “red list” of species facing threats. Brent Stapelkamp, a wildlife researcher who monitored Cecil, said he believes that some hunters in Africa try to locate and kill their quarry as quickly as possible, in contrast with old-style hunting trips that lasted weeks or months. “They’re here for the trophy more than the actual experience,” Stapelkamp said. But for some, it is also about the experience. “You cannot describe a wild lion’s roar,” Ernest Hemingway wrote in “True at First Light,” a book that was published posthumously. “You can only say that you listened and the lion roared. It is not at all like the noise the lion makes at the start of Metro Goldwyn Mayer pictures. When you hear it you first feel it in your scrotum and it runs all the way up through your body.”
