Standing up for clean air and water kmichaels@kelownacapnews.com
Could Kelowna become a Blue Dot on the map of B.C.? A group of environmentallyminded residents are trying to build momentum to have Kelowna council pass a declaration affirming the right to a healthy environment, aligning it with the David Suzuki foundation’s Blue Dot campaign. “As of right now, 80 Canadian municipalities have passed similar declarations,” said Ezra Cipes, CEO of Summerhill Winery and
one of the leading voices in the local endeavour. “Fundamentally, it’s about the right to breathe clean air, drink clean water and have access to safe food. It can also be about providing knowledge to residents about toxins released into the environment and allowing input into government decision making that affects our environment.” Clean water and clean air are things that Kelowna residents are lucky enough to take for granted and the Blue Dot designation would largely be symbolic, he said.
But that doesn’t make it any less relevant. “Symbolism is an important part of leadership,” Cipes said, pointing out that a municipal declaration, along with a provincial declaration—an item being tabled at the UBCM meeting this week—would lay the roots for change at a higher level of government. In particular, he hopes it could lay the groundwork for a change to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. “What the charter is, is a distillation of our deeply held national beliefs—it’s the basis of our law,” he said.
“So if this is something we agree on as a country, and Canadians identify nature as part of their national identity, it should form the basis of our basic laws.” More than 1,000 signatures from Kelowna residents supporting the Blue Dot campaign being brought to Kelowna council indicate a local appetite for change and Cipes believes more people of all stripes will get on board with the idea as word spreads.

News DIFFICULT WORK
New prison attracts job seekers Kathy Michaels kmichaels@kelownacapnews.com
Competition for a job at what will be the Okanagan’s first prison is starting to heat up. Around 20 participants showed up at the Capital News Centre on Saturday for the physical examination that precedes the actual application process to work at the Okanagan Correctional Centre. Applicants were from various walks of life, with different educational backgrounds and from different cities. All wanted a shot at being a prison guard. Among their ranks was Gary Gill. He’s in his second year of a bachelor of arts at the University of Lethbridge, and criminology is his focus.
“I drove (Friday) to my parents’ house in Abbotsford so I could get a note from my family doctor, saying I was physically fit for the exam,” he said. “Then, today, I made it here to Kelowna and we’re driving back to school later.” The whirlwind tour won’t be for naught, he hopes. He feels he’s physically fit enough and in the right line of study for the job, but knows the competition is intense. “It’s not easy getting these jobs, so it’s a great opportunity that these positions are opening up,” he said. “I think this would be a good place to work…If I like it, I could stick to it, but it’s good experience if you want to go into
About 20 people turned out at the Capital News Centre on Saturday for the physical examination aspect of the job application process for getting work at the Okanagan Correctional Centre. The prison being built near Oliver will create about 300 new jobs. policing down the road.” The Okanagan Correctional Centre has 300 new positions to fill, 200 of which will be for corrections officers, which is why the Corrections Officers’ Physical Abilities Test (COPAT) is so important. COPAT involves climbing stairs, negotiating obstacles at speed, pushing and pulling heavy objects
out of the way, gaining control over a resisting subject, and moving an approximately 31.75-kg (70-lb.) object a certain distance—all within a two minute and 50 second time limit. Steve DiCastri, warden of Okanagan Correctional Centre, explained each of the physical exam stations represent something prison guards will see while working in the
prison, which will be built north of Oliver. “With cuffing techniques, you may have to get down on the ground and cuff somebody, then get up and go over a fallen table,” said DiCastri. The various tests looked deceptively simple, but DiCastri pointed out that 10 per cent of the people who take it fail. “Cardio is the main
reason they fail,” he said. “By the time they go to the push pull station, their mind gets going and they’re huffing and puffing—that’s the hard part.” What won’t be hard, however, is filling the positions that are open. The Kelowna exam is one of many that will be held in the valley. Once that’s cleared, the application process will
open up and it’s expected to be busy. “We have done information sessions from Kelowna to Oliver and we’ve seen 1,200 people so far,” he said. It’s difficult, but rewarding work DiCastri said, pointing out that he’s been working in B.C. prison’s since 1985. @kelownanewsKAT
UNITED WAY FUNDRAISER
Bus Pull will be a test of strength and technique Sawyer Klassen sawyer.klassen@kelownacapnews.com
Teams of eight will have their chance to prove their strength by pulling a city bus on a portion of Bernard Avenue Thursday. For the second year in a row, Central and South Okanagan Similkameen United Way will be hosting a Bus Pull fundraiser, which will pit teams against each other as they race to pull a 24,000-pound city bus 60 feet to the finish line. As a fundraiser for United Way, all of the money raised will go to a specific purpose. “This particular event is going to (build) our Impact Fund,” explained
United Way executive director Shelley Gilmore. “(The Impact Fund) is money we set aside for urgent issues or emergency grants. So if the community presents an issue to us, something like there’s a sudden shortage in day care spots, or the food bank requires some support, or one of the shelters runs into a problem, that’s the money we would access to make sure the agencies get the support they need.” Gilmore said they have a goal of raising $10,000, which is conservative when compared to last year’s total of roughly $19,000. However, United Way has limited the number of teams to 15 this year
There will be some from 17 last year due to traffic closures to time constraints, which accommodate the is one of the reasons Bus Pull, but Gilmore they have kept their goal noted the impact more moderate this year. on traffic should be The fundraising minimal. is done through the “That one block participating teams of Bernard will be themselves. closed, we aren’t Each team has to blocking Water or provide a minimum Shelley Gilmore Mill,” she said. donation of $750, but “You can still go all they are also encouraged to the way around that block.

street. “Last year we were cleaned up by about (2 p.m.), and our goal is to be out as quickly as possible to make sure we’re not interrupting traffic too much.” The Bus Pull will also feature strongman Noah Normandale making a return visit to once again pull a bus on his own. However, additional weight can be added this year as spectators can choose to make a $100 donation to his pledge to sit on the bus while he pulls it. Gilmore invites everyone to come, watch and cheer on the teams as they attempt to pull a city bus with nothing but a long rope.

party leader Elizabeth May shut out of the debate and fighting an uphill battle despite being the only one to officially launch a platform, they will likely be waiting even longer. “I don’t see the environment being talked about very much by anybody to be honest,” said Wayne Wilson, the executive director of the Central Okanagan Land Trust. “The campaign seems to be about the economy and security. Absolutely anything and everything about the environment should be on the table because it affects us all. From water to air, to soil to biodiversity. I would hope to see the environment higher (as an election topic).” Wilson, who spent 35 years on the board of the Kelowna Museum and is now with the Central Okanagan Land Trust, says the environment is connected to the economy and should be

and she is one of the brightest minds in terms of government policies but we are not hearing enough from her because she is cut out of the debates,” Jyrkkanen said. With Green Party candidate Gary Adams pulling out of the race for a seat in Kelowna-Lake Country, voters who may have been leaning to the Green Party in that riding must now cast ballots for either the Conservative, Liberal or NDP candidates. It’s something that has been happening in other ridings as well, including in Vancouver, as Green candidates try to pool votes to defeat the Conservatives, the governing party that critics say has put fossil fuels first for the last decade. “Many in the environmental community are trying to co-ordinate the nonConservative voters given that the Liberals or NDP or Greens would do substantially more than
the Conservatives (for the environment),” said UBC political science professor Kathryn Harrison. “They are asking people who care deeply about the environment to vote as a block for the candidate that is most likely to defeat the Conservatives.” Locally, Jyrkkanen says while not having a Green candidate to vote for in Kelowna-Lake Country isn’t ideal, he urges all politicians to start taking climate change seriously. “Climate change is the biggest crisis we face because it is affecting everything,” he said. “We need someone out there that is connected to nature and understands how this is all connected. “The goodness of the planet is not derived from corporations it’s derived from nature and we have to respect that.”

Legal logistics of flying drones examined The popularity of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), otherwise known as drones, has grown abuzz in the last few years. As a result, awareness about the safe use of the modern technology— be it as a toy or tool— is becoming more important. For example, incidents
occurred at forest fires in B.C. this summer, including here in the Okanagan, where drones flying in a fire zone forced the aerial assault on the flames to be called off for safety reasons. Helping to demystify and clarify current Canadian regulations, safe operation guidelines, and risk management of

flying drones, Okanagan College in cooperation with the Kelowna and District Flying Club, will host a free public information session on Tuesday, Sept. 29, from 7 to 9 p.m., at the Kelowna campus lecture theatre. Hobbyist flyers, those using drones for commercial purposes, and individuals who are considering owning and operating a drone will become equipped with
the facts such as the no-fly zone within nine kilometers of an airport, heliport, or aerodrome. Those new to drone technology can find out if obtaining a Special Flight Operation Certificate, as regulated by Transport Canada, is necessary based on the intended use. Attendees can expect to hear from a panel of experts including representatives from
Okanagan College, the Canadian Owners’ and Pilots Association, the RCMP, Nav Canada, and a commercial insurance agent. The session will include a question and answer period.

Volunteer Fair: Hundreds of prospective volunteers study options Kathy Michaels kmichaels@kelownacapnews.com
A peek into the vast network of Kelowna residents who work behind the scenes to ensure this community has its needs met was available at Parkinson Rec this weekend. The 18th annual Volunteer Fair, hosted by Kelowna Community Resources, gathered 71 of 375 potential non-profit organizations. As volunteers to these organizations spent the day at a booth explaining what their respective organizations do for the community, nearly 1,000 people interested in offering their time introduced themselves. “Most of (these groups) are actively
recruiting,” said organizer Stephanie Moore. “I’ve been walking around and looking at the volunteer sign up sheets and they’re really filling up.” All in all, it was a very Canadian spectacle. “Canada is second in the world for volunteering,” said Moore, pointing out that only the Netherlands sees a higher percentage of its residents offer their time, free of charge. “As a culture, we are accustomed to getting services at little to no cost, but that requires us to donate a lot of our time… sometimes we have to remind people, we live in a great country because people donate so much of their time.” Making volunteer recruitment easy to do,
is the simple fact that there is something for every passion, which was evident at the fair. If you love arts and culture there was plenty. Children? Lots of ways to contribute. Adults with varying challenges? Your help is needed. There’s even a whole organization dedicated to ensuring cats are cared for. The Alley Cat Alliance has run from Kelowna to Penticton since 2012, ensuring that feral and loose cats are kept out of harms way. On Saturday they were looking for volunteers to simply drive cats in their care to vet appointments, collect blankets or even help trap roaming cats— and plenty offered their time. More, however,
are still needed as they estimate there has been a 78 per cent increase in the number of cats in need over the last year. Over at a more established non profit, the Kelowna Community Food Bank, the story of need was similar. The demand on the food bank’s services goes up all the time, explained Patty Lou Bryant. “We’d be lost without our volunteers.” Luckily for them, Bryant said, the community’s desire to give is similarly high, and there are 30 to 40 volunteers in and out of the food bank on any given day. That appetite to help was noticeable at the fair. Sign up sheets for volunteering were snapped up quickly
More care beds ready by early 2017 Alistair Waters awaters@kelownacapnews.com
Interior Health’s plan to add 100 residential care beds in Kelowna will cost the health authority $5.8 million per year. Earlier this month, IH announced it had awarded a contract to Baltic Properties Ltd. to design, build and operate a new care facility in Glenmore that will house the new beds. However, at the time, the health authority refused to say how much the addition of the new
NDP’s Libby Davies to host health care discussion Former NDP deputy leader and long-time MP Libby Davies will be hosting a discussion about the future of Canada’s health care system in Kelowna this Thursday. The event is open to the public. The discussion will take place on Sept. 24, starting at 7 p.m., at the Kelowna-Lake Country NDP Campaign office, 1-1725 Baron, Rd, in Kelowna. In addition to Davies, the KelownaLake Country riding’s NDP candidate, Norah Bowman, will also be in attendance.
facility and ongoing operation of the new beds would cost, citing confidentiality clauses in the contract. But, following a Freedom of Information request by the Capital News, the contract figure has been revealed. The $5.8 million figure is described as the “base” amount to be paid to Baltic Properties (Glenmore) Ltd. on annual basis. Baltic beat out 11 other proponents that submitted proposals for the new care facility. The
company has build care homes for IH in the past, including facilities in Kamloops, Lake Country, Osoyoos and West Kelowna. The new Glenmore facility will be built at 325 Drysdale Boulevard. Construction is expected to begin this fall, with completion projected for early 2017. In addition to the 100 new care beds, the new facility will also include 18 private-pay residential care beds. The new Kelowna beds are part of a larger
allotment,185 new residential care beds, announced by IH for the central and north Okanagan in February. The remaining 85 beds are slated for Vernon and an announcement about a successful proponent there is expected this fall. Residential care services provide around-the-clock professional supervision and care in a secure, home-like environment for individuals with complex care needs that cannot be met at home or in an assisted-living residence.
Saturday, leaving Bryant to create an impromptu calling list for those interested in giving their time. A steady volunteer to the food bank was even helping her field the queries from interested parties. Elma Hiebert is a volunteer who, Bryant said, is a blessing to the organization. “My husband and I moved here from Manitoba, after taking early retirement, and we
volunteer because we want to do something useful with our lives,”
Hiebert said. “It’s very rewarding.”

Opinion OUR VIEW
Playing election polling game Every politician and would-be MP or MLA knows, or at least they should, that polling numbers don’t translate into seats. Polling figures from Nanos Research released this week show the governing Conservatives, Opposition NDP and the Liberals in a virtual dead heat among decided voters, with support ranging between 29 and 31 per cent. But even if that was the last poll conducted before election day, it wouldn’t necessarily mean Parliament would split exactly down those lines. There is always a huge glut of people who are undecided up until the late stages of a campaign—some estimates put it as high as 25 per cent. In a close election race, the number of people who make up their mind just before heading to the polling station is likely far more than politicians or parties would care to see. And the proliferation of cell phone use as opposed to phone landlines, which polling results are often based around, tends to limit the accuracy of polling results as has been seen recent elections. Public media companies have for years commissioned research firms to give them the latest figures, which often get trotted out on front pages and websites as the top story for that day. Unfortunately, releasing polling data has become a public relations ploy, especially with all the parties commissioning their own polls at various times. One firm hired by the NDP came back with numbers last week that said Liberal leader Justin Trudeau was trailing an opponent by 11 points in his own riding. A poll conducted for a national media company with a far larger sample size and different methodology found Trudeau to actually be leading by five points. Political parties hire pollsters to come up with numbers they feel will help them. Without a doubt, if the numbers don’t flatter them, they don’t publicize them. While stats heads might find the pre-election numbers interesting, the only ones that count are on election day.

CAPITAL news AWARD-WINNING COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER
A rarity: Civility during campaign The three candidates running City in the Kelowna-Lake Confidential Country riding took to the radio airwaves ALISTAIR Tuesday in the first WATERS all-candidates’ meeting of the campaign. The AM1150 broadcast gathering—it could not really be called a debate because the trio of Conservative Ron Cannan, Liberal Stephen Fuhr and the NDP’s Norah Bowman spoke to listeners rather than to each other— was a rather tame affair. But it did start on an interesting note. In a reversal of what we are seeing on a national level, it was the Liberal candidate, Fuhr, who came out on the attack. Given 90 seconds to introduce themselves, Bowman talked about herself, Cannan talked about his party and Fuhr attacked the Conservatives. Nationally, voters have been fed a steady diet of Conservative attack ads for the last few months, first aimed at Liberal leader Justin Trudeau, who the Tories label as “just not ready,” and, of late, against NDP leader Thomas Mulcair, derided as “just another career politician.” The fact Conservative leader Stephen Harper was elected to parliament a year before Mulcair entered the National Assembly in Quebec (he served there before heading to Ottawa) is not mentioned. Harper, who has been prime minister for the last 10 years, did take five years off in the late 1990s during his Reform Party days to run a politically-active conservative lobby group, the National Citizens’ Coalition. So maybe in the minds of those crafting the attack ads, that makes him less of a career politician than Mulcair. But back to the local candidates. Just four issues were covered in the radio forum, fighter plans for the Canadian Air Force, veteran’s affairs, refugees and daycare. The trio echoed their party’s respective positions on

the issues and the only time anyone was challenged was when host Phil Johnson reminded Cannan he supported closing the veteran’s affairs office in Kelowna. Cannan didn’t answer that directly but said a veteran’s affairs desk was set up as a replacement in the federal services building downtown to help vets. On Monday, Mulcair announced an NDP government would reopen the closed veterans’ affairs offices, a move Bowman welcomed. On the issue of new fighter planes for the Air Force, Cannan, as you would expect, touted the current government plan, Fuhr, a retired Air Force pilot, opposes it saying it’s the wrong decision for Canada and Bowman says the NDP would take a closer look at what’s on the table. On the question of refugees all three had different numbers in mind when it came to how many refugees to take in. Daycare brought out some more differences. The NDP says it would create one million more daycare spaces, which would cost parents around $15 per day. The Liberals blast the plan as taking eight years to achieve which is too long, with Fuhr saying tax breaks for families and the middle class are better. And Conservatives tout the moves the last government made giving families tax relief and more money to the provinces for social programs. The substance-over-style approach delivered by the local trio, while not the most riveting listening, was strangely refreshing given the sound and fury we are hearing at the national level. When Bowman, Cannan and Fuhr only talked about planes, vets, refugees and kids, they concentrated on what their respective parties will do, not what the other parties have not done. If they keep this up, we may have that most unlikely of scenarios in Canadian politics of late—at least at the local level–a respectful campaign focusing on ideas. Huh? Who would have thunk it? awaters@kelownacapnews.com

Letters
United Nations should deal with refugees To the editor: A letter in the Sept. 18 Kelowna Capital News (A. Cabuche, Canada In A Leadership Vacuum) cannot be criticized too harshly as the content is well meant. It was obviously written prior to Germany retreating from its promises of taking in hundreds of thousands of refugees so suggesting that Chancellor Angela Merkel is a “leader” may be premature. Also her support for financial bailouts to Greece, a country that has put itself into major financial problems with no viable way of correcting them other than more and more bailouts, would suggest she is not the leader A. Cabuche may think she is. But to the part that does require comment: Use of the Canadian military cited was within
the guidelines of (mainly) United Nations operations. The problem we (the world) have right now is the invisibility of the UN in the problem areas. The UN was established in 1945 to replace the ineffective League of Nations, its mandate to maintain international peace, to promote human rights, providing humanitarian aid in armed conflict. So while it is easy to condemn our national leaders (and I am not saying they are without blame in this issue) the more justifiable condemnation should be addressed at the United Nations, an organization of 193 member nations which, much like its predecessor, The League of Nations, has shown itself totally ineffective in the conflict in Syria as well as controlling the growth of ISIS/ISIL, ineffective in providing leadership
(which A. Cabuche is looking for) in Europe and assisting the nations trying to deal with the influx of refugees (if indeed they make it across the Adriatic or Mediterranean). All of these things are within its mandate but the UN is ignoring its duties. As much as I agree with the sentiments of pride in our Armed Forces, thankfulness for the volunteers in our communities, and the self-pandering politicians seeking our vote, I do believe that it is the United Nations that need to be criticized for their lack of effectiveness in the refugee problems around the world. Our political leaders are letting Canada down, but the United Nations is letting the world down. Malcolm Roberts, Kelowna
Canada has become a place Kelowna that’s frightened of change needs diverse debates To the editor: How have we become such a fearful country? Rick Hillier, the former chief of defence staff for the Harper government said recently: “We’ve got to stop being frightened of our own shadow.” What’s happened to the optimistic, fair-minded, generous country Canada used to be? I can tell you. We’ve had a government for far too long that has governed with fearfulness. They’ve been afraid of what scientists have to say, they’ve been afraid of what the census will say, they’ve been afraid of letting Canadians know what laws are being enacted so they’ve hidden everything in omnibus bills—they’ve even prevented Elections Canada from encouraging Canadians to vote and only allowed preapproved Canadians to attend their campaign events. That fearfulness has rubbed off on us. While Europe is inundated with desperate refugees, Canada does virtually nothing. Rick Hillier has courageously spoken out
with an excellent plan for how we can help, but the Canadian government is sticking with its fearful agenda. Most of us are in Canada because previous governments have been welcoming and courageous, not fearful. In Canada, only two people have died in terrorism attacks over the last decade. We’re much more likely to be killed in a car accident. We’ve got to rediscover our Canadian mojo. How can we stand by with meagre future plans for admitting refugees when the crisis is happening now and needs action now? Aren’t you tired of being fearful? We’re afraid of letting refugees in, we’re afraid to change course on the economy, we’re afraid of our own shadows. Without being willing to change and take on challenges, Canada will stagnate, and we’ll continue to live in fear. I certainly don’t want that future and intend to vote for a much-needed change. L. Hein, West Kelowna

CAPITAL news KELOWNA
Integrated water eases costs To the editor: The letter from David Stirling, (Mayor Challenged on Water Quality, Sept. 18 Kelowna Capital News) former chair of the Kelowna Joint Water Committee, exemplifies the reason council is pushing for progress on clean drinking water and a sustainable, integrated water supply system. While the letter states “the long-term plan the mayor wants to develop already exists,” it neglects to mention that the 2012 Kelowna Integrated Water Supply Plan, which would cost all local ratepayers $360-million, also came with a provincial requirement for a Value Planning exercise to be undertaken before any grant money is committed to the plan. We applaud the province for its requirement that the Kelowna Integrated Water Supply Plan be vetted through a value planning exercise. This is needed, in the words of Minister Coralee Oakes, “to examine the merits of the current plan, explore the best lowest-cost options for the entire plan and include evaluation of whether multiple water system purveyors is a viable and effective solution for an integrated, redundant system.” As far back as May of 2012, the province made it quite clear that a value planning process would be needed before grants could be applied for. This was reiterated to the
To the editor: It has to be said that while the all candidates meetings are certainly welcome, what is not welcome is the fact it is again the Kelowna Chamber of Commerce organizing it and steering it, as if they represented the entire community. To rectify the situation, I would like to propose the formation of a Public Interest Community, or PIC, which, in the future, would steer public discussions on all the major topics concerning the city, to which all interested groups and individuals are invited. If interested, contact me, with your phone number, at awhorak@telus.net Wence Horak, Kelowna
SAS LoAferS
Minister Oakes. It is the lack of acknowledgment of this long standing provincial requirement that is holding up grants—not the City of Kelowna. The City of Kelowna supports the value planning exercise because we believe that, if integration of the various water providers is considered sooner than called for in the original plan, integration would potentially save ratepayers approximately $180 million. This is based on information received in 2014, when the city commissioned its own broad level due diligence study of the current plan. The “best lowest-cost option” would result in significant savings that could leave money available for other priorities, such as expanding our balanced transportation network or community safety initiatives. A further review to maximize the value of an integrated, resilient, reliable and sustainable water supply system will be money well spent. The irrigation districts’ relatively small ratepayer base makes sustainability of individual systems a challenge in the face of climate change and changing regulations. Due in part to its large ratepayer base, the City of Kelowna has continually improved its water system without the assistance of funding from senior levels of government. This kind of robust system throughout Kelowna would ensure back-ups are in place
issues. We understand the idea of integrating water systems can be a difficult topic for independent water districts. However, the City of Kelowna has a responsibility to all citizens, regardless of where they get their water, and will continue to push for clean drinking water and a robust, sustainable system for the future. Colin Basran, Mayor, City of Kelowna

Knee Arthritis and Knee Injuries Successfully Treated by Shockwave Therapy
W
hether you are an athlete, in your golden years of retirement, or the typical person on your feet all day at work, you know there’s nothing more debilitating than a knee injury. Knee injuries have many faces and causes and these three groups of people are susceptible to the same injuries but from different causes. Tendon injuries are the most common: Iliotibial band syndrome (pain on the outside of the knee); Patellar tendonitis (pain below the knee); and hamstring injuries (leading to pain in the back of the knee). As well, arthritis plagues many and often results in knee replacement surgery. And unfortunately, many knee surgery patients (due to ligament or cartilage tears) frequent our office.
tendon, binding the knee and often creating soft tissue pain. For the past four years I have been using Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) to treat these conditions, because shockwave therapy breaks down scar tissue and stimulates blood vessel growth to restore muscle function and promote healing. The Journal of Surgical Research 2012 showed ESWT is effective in preventing knee arthritis. In The American Journal Of Sports Medicine 2007, 90% showed significant improvement in patellar tendonitis. Furthermore, The Archives of Orthopedic Trauma Surgery 2007 showed significant reduction in the progression of knee arthritis (ESWT stimulates cells to produce cartilage). Results are often experienced within a couple of visits and the treatment is covered by many insurance companies.
DR. RYAN HARRIS Glenmore Chiropractic
Each of these injuries comes with its own set of obstacles when treating with conventional methods: tendonitis can create fibrous adhesions and scar tissue that disrupts the normal function of the muscle; arthritis erodes the cartilage, decreasing the joint space; and surgery, although often necessary, creates scar tissue on the surrounding muscle and

Students at the Okanagan Adventist Academy returned to school ready to work, coming together as a group to exert some elbow grease by tackling illegal dumping off Postill Lake Road. Thirty Grade 8 to12 students and their teachers hauled furniture, pallets, construction waste and bags and bags of litter out of the bush and loaded it into a huge dumpster donated by 4 Less Disposal. “A big part of the teaching of our school is to help students find their purpose,” said Adventist Academy teacher Cherri Gerber. “Taking part in an activity like this helps the students realize that they can make a difference in their own
community.” According to regional waste reduction facilitator Cynthia Coates, said it was great to see the cleanup effort by the students come together and make a difference with the support of 4 Less Disposal. Coates said 1.2 tonnes of material was hauled out of the area, filling up a 30-yard dumpster. Illegal dumping has been in the spotlight several times this year as the Waste Reduction Office reminds everyone that the Glenmore landfill is open seven days a week to drop off material while the Westside Residential Waste Disposal and Recycling Centre is open every Friday through Monday. “There is no reason any of this
material should be ending up in the bush. These students are cleaning up after adults, folks that are users of this area and should be stewards of the environment,” Coates said. “We are always grateful when groups step up and offer to do these cleanups. It’s unfortunate that this happens, though. “ Coates also noted one dedicated user of the Postill Lake area, Garrett Strong, helped the Adventist Academy students. “Garrett was an incredible help for this cleanup, using his truck to haul additional material from further up the road” said Coates.

Upgrades to the playground at Ben Lee Park in Rutland began this week. Earlier this year, the City of Kelowna and the federal government announced a $100,000 investment to enhance the playground at Ben Lee Park, with each partner contributing $50,000 to the project. Only the area around the existing play structure will be closed during the upgrade, which is anticipated to take four to six weeks. The rest of the park remains open to the public. Existing wood chips around the play structure will be removed and replaced with a rubberized surface as seen at the Parkinson Recreation Centre.

Weather SenSing irrigation SyStemS Imagine an irrigation system that adjusted itself to the weather conditions for your area automatically. It would be great to no longer have to run back and forth to your irrigation controller to turn the watering time up or down dependent on the weather, or off in the instance of rain. You could stop worrying about whether or not you had to change it back or turn it back on if the controller could adjust all the settings without constant intervention. Good news! Anybody can transform an automatic irrigation system into a high-efficiency water resource-management center with the addition of a climate sensing component. There are many models on the market to turn select irrigation controllers into a weather smart controller. The weather sensing component monitors current air temperature, solar radiation and precipitation. This data is transmitted at regular intervals throughout the day to the receiver module which is linked directly to your controller. Each day, the climate sensing component calculates and adjusts the programmed station run time duration to the amount required for the next watering cycle.

Grant Thornton, the title sponsor of the Kelowna General Hospital Kids’ Day celebration, unveiled a donation of $30,000 to the Giving Giggles campaign to raise money for the hospital’s new Perinatal Unit. Parents whose kids were born at KGH (above) were invited to take part in the campaign launch.
‘Giving Giggles’ fundraising campaign off to $30,000 start Last Sunday marked the official launch of Giving Giggles, a campaign to raise funds for KGH’s new Perinatal Unit, serving expectant mothers and newborn babies. The launch took place at Grant Thornton Kids of KGH Day, a celebration at Strathcona Park for all those born at the hospital. Hundreds of KGH Kids were on hand to witness the campaign launch which was kicked off with a $30,000 donation from Grant Thornton. The new Perinatal Unit is moving from its current location in the Strathcona
Building, to the top floor of the new Interior Heart & Surgical Centre, and boasts significant upgrades including single-patient post-partum rooms and an expanded NICU. “The KGH Foundation’s goal is always to take health care from a provincial standard to truly world class,” explained KGH Foundation CEO Doug Rankmore. “Everything from lifesaving equipment to those items that make the patient experience more comfortable.” The new Perinatal Unit will open in March 2016. For more information on the campaign, see givinggiggles.ca.

Workshops help Kelowna residents living with dementia Understanding dementia, and the feelings of grief and loss it causes, is the goal of a pair of free workshops next month in Kelowna. The non-profit Alzheimer Society of B.C. developed the workshops to help the increasing number of Kelowna and other B.C. families living with Alzheimer’s disease or another dementia. The first workshop, Getting to Know Dementia, takes place on Monday, Oct. 19. “Participants will receive basic information on dementia and the impact it has on the individual, their caregivers and their support network,” said Carly Gronlund, the Society’s support & education coordinator for Kelowna and the Central & North Okanagan. The introductory session reviews the different types of support available throughout the dementia journey, planning for the future and strategies for
living well. The session is intended for people experiencing early symptoms of dementia, as well as family members or friends who are currently supporting a person with a recent dementia diagnosis. It is not intended for the general public or health care providers. The second workshop, Grieving Losses During the Dementia Journey, takes place on Wednesday, Oct. 28. It explores the loss and grief issues of the dementia caregiving experience. Participants will also get suggestions for weathering the losses. Both workshops run from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Alzheimer Society Resource Centre, 307 - 1664 Richter St. Early registration is required, by contacting Carly Gronlund at 250-8600305 or cgronlund@alzheimerbc.org.
Surprising rewards from taking chances I was thrilled this past week to have my company, Caresmart Seniors Consulting, named as one of the finalists in the Kelowna Chamber of Commerce 28th annual Business Excellence Awards. As our name was announced, I felt a rush of surprise, excitement and a humbleness all at the same time. I suppose the recognition felt especially sweet as a budding entrepreneur who had started a business at the age of 61. Having made a decision five years ago to leave my secure job and jump off a very high cliff into the vast unknown was more of a leap than I had imagined. Standing with many others at the Chamber

Seniors’ Concerns MARJORIE HORNE event last week and hearing my company name being called, felt like I had for a moment come to land softly on the ground. Going where life leads you is really about making choices. We all try so hard to make the right decisions in life. I loved reading William Bridges’ book called The Way of Transition which he wrote after his wife of many years passed away. Having been the guru on change for a good part of his life, this event led him into unknown territory that made him question many of the platitudes he had written and talked about over his career. His journey into finding love again in his life and allowing himself to feel truly happy, led him into discovering things about himself that he had never had the courage to explore before. He wrote in this book that, “Decisions are made on the basis of evidence and logic, but choices are always an act of will. Many important activities go better on the basis of decisions, but living itself is made up of choices. Decisions start with outside data, on the basis of which the decider tries to evaluate the pluses and minuses and come up with a plan of action. Decisions can be made by anyone, and everyone (using the same inputs and logic) will come up with the similar conclusions. But choices are unique and idiosyncratic. That makes them human. They start with (and express) who we are. Decisions have many possible forms, but choices have only two: yes and no.”
Making a choice to start a business that would be a creation moulded from my passions and beliefs was a big risk. I saw the looks on the faces of many people I knew wondering why on earth I was doing this “at my age.” But the people who knew me well, my close friends and family, cheered me on. They trusted that I was making a choice for myself that took courage and just enough craziness to take the leap, both of which they seemed to have the faith that I possessed even though I sometimes questioned it. With decisions it seems you are able to assess how much of a risk you are taking. However, with choices it doesn’t seem you can weigh the odds in the same way. Bridges says that “when you choose, there is just whatever path you do take and the life that that choice creates for you.” As I cared for my mom during her last year of life, I listened to her relay to me that it this not something she felt she had allowed for herself over her lifetime and I do believe she regretted it immensely. I admit that I, as I am sure may be the case for many of you, like to be able to figure out things in advance. If I don’t, I can feel overwhelmed with a feeling that I am being irresponsible. In developing my business, I have to step out of this belief and allow a surge of wind to come beneath me, lifting me up like I have the wings of an eagle and let myself soar out towards the horizon and into the blueness of the sky. Commitment it appears is a key ingredient to feeling like you can fly and with it comes a freedom that is worth every moment of doubt and every feeling of uncertainty that I have
U
experienced after making a choice to follow my dreams. These past five years of transition have been ones where many deep inner shifts have taken place for me. Over these past few days as I take in this bit of recognition for my efforts, it has given me the opportunity to look back and see the footprints on the path my choice has taken me on. So much has happened, so many events I had never anticipated and so much development at a time in life when you think you are supposed to shift down into first gear, not up into fourth. The ancient Greek aphorism, Know Thyself, describes what we are here to do. Our choices make that possible and perhaps it is even more relevant as we enter our 60s, our 70s, our 80s and our 90s. Going where life leads you takes trusting and accepting that whatever life lays along the path has been prepared for you. Discovering the meaning and the message of each happening is the challenge. So resist the urge to hurry up and figure things out. Slow down, center yourself and wait watchfully. The answers will come without effort and striving, the path will unfold without you having to get out the big shovel if you just let it happen. The Japanese use a quiet time (or time-out) as part of their spiritual tradition to focus oneself before tackling a new or a difficult situation. They do this, not to “meditate” on their own problems, but to surrender themselves to the source of life, whose fluidity relieves a problem of its complexity and allows one to exercise his/ her own power in perfect liberty.

Useful tips on how to keep weight on Soon after writing my last column, Don’t Fall Prey To Autumn Setbacks, I received a call from a senior woman who told me she appreciated the information on how to keep from gaining the typical five to seven pounds in the colder months; however, it didn’t apply to her since she has to add whipped cream to everything she eats just to keep weight on. The truth is that for some gaining weight can be just as difficult as losing weight. Some of the most common issues for those over 65 trying to maintain or gain weight can be contributed to: • Eating too little food • Not having enough money to buy food • Not being able to go grocery shopping or cook or feed yourself • Feeling depressed, sad, isolated and eating
Fitness For Seniors BOBBI MOGER alone most of the time • Having swallowing problems, mouth or tooth problems • Not being able to smell, taste, chew or digest food properly •Having an illness or a medical condition like cancer, heart conditions and digestive conditions such as ulcers or gall bladder disease • Taking medications that may cause nausea and vomiting, difficulty swallowing, taste loss and poor appetite. Just a couple dangers with being underweight can include: • Limit your ability to do day-to-day tasks • Make a medical
Take a chance HORNE FROM A18 Agnes de Mille said it perfectly: “Living is a form of not being sure, not knowing what’s next or how. The moment you know, you begin to die a little.”

condition worse • Increase your risk for muscle loss, infection, illness, depression and death. So how can you avoid weight loss? The first thing you should do as a senior trying to gain weight is to eat more often. Try to avoid high-fat, high sugar foods, avoid prepackaged processed and fast food because these foods contain a large amount of cholesterol, sodium, trans
and unsaturated fats. Instead registered dietitian Cynthia Sass from the Mayo Clinic advises you fill your meals with whole grains, dairy, nuts, seeds, fruits, vegetables and lean protein like seafood, poultry, lean meat, beans and legumes. Choose high calorie and high protein foods at every meal and snack. Include full fat foods like cheese with 20 per cent or more M.F. (milk fat) and three per cent M.F. yogurt. Dentures that don’t
fit or missing teeth can make it hard to eat foods that you usually enjoy. Changing the way food is made may help: • Grind your food with a food processor. • Cook your food longer to soften foods • Eat soft foods such as yogurt, meat loaf, avocado and eggs. • Aim for five or six small meals throughout the day, no more than three or four hours apart • Eat your regular meals, breakfast, lunch and dinner but include
higher energy snacks like nut butters with fruit, granola, cheese and crackers, protein bars, smoothies and ready to eat cereal with milk and seeds in between meals. Drinks are an easy way to add more calories into an underweight person’s diet. Choosing smoothies, shakes, juice and lowfat milk increases your caloric intake and without adding too much fat. Lastly most people think of exercise as a way to lose weight not to gain it but be assured
that exercise can help seniors gain weight by building lean muscle and stimulating your appetite. Making small changes to your eating habits can help you avoid unplanned weight loss. If you have had unplanned weight loss in the last 12 months, be sure to speak with your doctor.

Sports WHL ROCKETS
Wishnowski to make up for lost season Sitting out his entire rookie season in the WHL was both a frustrating and humbling experience for Tanner Wishnowski. Now the Kelowna Rockets forward is hoping to make up for lost time. During training camp last September, Wishnowksi suffered whiplash and never played in a single game in 2014-15 due to ongoing concussion-like symptoms. With all of this year’s camp and a full compliment of exhibition games under his belt, the Oak Bank, Manitoba native is steadily returning to form. “I’ve been feeling pretty good out there,” said Wishnowski, 18, who played the 201314 season with the major midget league’s Okanagan Rockets. “I hadn’t really played a game since the Telus Cup the year before, so the preseason has been good, a lot of fun for me. “Obviously if you miss that much hockey, it takes time to get up to the speed of the game again…but it’s coming.” Rockets GM Bruce Hamilton is encouraged to see a healthy Wishnowksi back on the ice, particularly after what was a trying and challenging year for the young forward. “Along with our doctors we decided it was best for him (to sit out last season),” said Hamilton. “It took a long time for him to get better, so we feel good about the way

Kelowna Rockets forward Tanner Wishnowski is back after missing all of his WHL rookie season with an injury. it was handled. “It’s going to take him a while to get back up to speed, but he has the makings of being a real good player for us. With time, we think he’ll catch up and be just fine.” By the time the preseason wrapped up on the weekend, Wishnowski’s game didn’t look to be all that far off the mark. The 6-foot, 175-pound forward scored twice on Saturday night against the Vancouver Giants—once on a penalty shot and another on the power play. Once he’s back up
to speed, Rockets head coach Brad Ralph envisions Wishnowksi as a key component of the team’s attack. “Tanner plays with a tremendous amount of speed, he’s physical and competes hard,” said Ralph. “After a year off, he’s trying to establish his role on the team and knowing what it takes again to be successful. Getting to play this whole exhibition season has been very beneficial for him, he played in all situations and did very well for us. “We have high expectations for him,”

added Ralph, “and everything we’ve seen so far, we like where his game is headed.” And even though he lost an entire season due to injury, Wishnowski has no plans to change the fast, aggressive style he’s become known for. “I’m going to be the same player, I’m not going to be scared for sure. I’m going to come to the rink everyday, work hard to get better,” said Wishnowski, who can’t wait for Friday’s season opener at home to the Kamloops Blazers. “I’m ecstatic to get to step out on the ice again for real, in a game that means something. I haven’t done that for a long time.”

Sun clinches first, wants more Warren Henderson whenderson@kelownacapnews.com
A year ago, a B.C. Football Conference regular season title didn’t translate into playoff prosperity for the Okanagan Sun. Head coach Shane Beatty has vastly different expectations of his team in 2015. The Sun nailed down top spot in the conference for the second year in a row and home field advantage in the playoffs with a 39-17 victory over the Kamloops Broncos Sunday at the Apple Bowl. But for Beatty, a regular season crown alone simply isn’t good enough. “Yeah, it feels good,” Beatty said. “We’re 8-0 but we won the BCFC last year and it didn’t mean anything did it? I just told my kids that upstairs. We won it, be happy, but it doesn’t mean anything. “We have to get better.” Despite the score, Beatty wasn’t entirely happy with his team’s performance in their final home game of the regular
season. The Sun led 29-0 at the half but by Beatty’s estimation let their foot off the gas over the final 30 minutes. Kamloops scored 10 points in the fourth quarter against the CJFL’s No. 1 defense. “First half we played great both sides of the ball and came out sloppy in the second half,” Beatty said. “We made great adjustments and played soft. I thought we did really well on special teams and I thought the offence called a great game but we just took our foot off the pedal.” Lerone Robinson caught a pair of touchdown passes for the Sun, one each from Cam Bedore and Josiah Joseph, who again platooned at quarterback. Dillon Fortune and Abdi-Nasir Abdi scored touchdowns along the ground, while Matt McConnell returned a blocked punt for the other major score. The Sun will be in Victoria on Saturday to take on the Westshore Rebels, then will visit Kamloops to wrap up

And while his team may be tempted to look ahead, linebacker Cord Delinte said the Sun need to remain focused on short-term goals. “It feels good to clinch,” said Delinte, “but we’ve gotta just stay with one week at a time, we can’t get overconfident with what we’ve done.”

Rockets settle on goaltenders Warren Henderson whenderson@kelownacapnews.com
General manager Bruce Hamilton assured his Kelowna Rockets wouldn’t be carrying three goaltenders this season. This week, the club made that official by giving 18-year-old netminder Jake Morrissey his outright release. That leaves the defending Western Hockey League champs with 20-year-old Jackson Whistle and Michael Herringer, 19, to tend to the Rockets’ net in 201516. “I have to commend all three of those guys for their patience, it’s good that we’ve been able to put an end to the
Warriors head to BCHL Showcase After a 2-2-0 start to the new season, the West Kelowna Warriors will head to Chilliwack this weekend to play two games in the BCHL Showcase. On Saturday afternoon at Prospera Centre, the Warriors will take on the Cowichan Valley Capitals. Then on Sunday night, West Kelowna will see the Langley Rivermen for the first time. The Warriors are looking for a bounce back effort after a 4-1 home ice loss to the Penticton Vees on Saturday night at Royal LePage. After scoring 18 times over their first three games of the regular season, the Warriors had trouble generating offense against the Vees. Scott Conway paced the Penticton attack with a two goals and an assist, while former Okanagan Rocket Tyson Jost had a goal and as assist for the winners. Jonathan Desbiens, with his third goal of the season, scored the lone marker for the Warriors in front of 1,462 fans at Royal LePage place. West Kelowna will visit Merritt Sept. 30, before returning home om Saturday, Oct. 3 to meet the expansion Wenatchee Wild.

speculation and settle on our two guys,” said Rockets assistant and goaltending coach Travis Crickard. “Both Jackson and Michael are excited about each having a net to themselves in practise, they’re each going to get more reps and I’m going to be able to spend more time with them. “We’re excited,” added
Crickard, “we think we’ve got the best tandem in the league.” Herringer, a free agent, was listed by the club early last season—joining Whistle and Morrissey— to provide insurance for the Rockets in what would turn out to be a successful run to the league championship. Whistle carried the
load, playing in 50 regular season games, winning 34 and posting a 2.55 goals against average. The West Kelowna product went on to a 132-1 playoff record, before leading the Rockets to the Memorial Cup final last May in Quebec City. Herringer, from Comox, went 11-2 in 14 games, posting a 2.33 goals against average, but was even more impressive in the post season in going 3-0 with a 1.96 goals against average. Morrissey, from Calgary, was the Rockets fifth round choice in the 2012 WHL bantam draft. Last season, he played in 11 games, posting an 8-1-0-1 record and 1.98 GAA.

Heat women home to T’Birds Saturday
It is a huge result to take a point off this perennial power house.” Claire Paterson, head coach Sunday’s matchup will see the University of Victoria make a stop at the Kelowna campus. Kick off both days is 2 p.m. The Heat battled to a 1-1 draw Friday in Langley with the No. 4 ranked Trinity Western Spartans. Michelle Smith’s goal in the 41st minute put UBCO ahead, before TWU answered back 11 minutes later. Paterson was pleased with her team’s effort against the Spartans, a squad which hasn’t lost more than one conference regular season match since 2011. “It is a huge result to take a point off this perennial power house,” Paterson
said. On Saturday in Abbotsford, the Fraser Valley Cascades were too much for the Heat in a 3-1 win. Gurneet Dhaliwal scored twice in a three-span in the second half to send UFV to the win. First-year forward Ally Ferronato scored her first career goal just before halftime for UBCO.
HEAT MEN
The Heat men have the first win of the CIS men’s soccer season under their belts as they head on the road this weekend for Canada West action. On Friday, the Heat heads to the island to take on the University of Victoria. Then on Saturday, UBC Okanagan (1-3-0) will meet UBC at Thunderbird Stadium. Dantae Zanatta’s squad picked up its first win of the season Friday night at home, a 2-1 verdict over the UNBC Timberwolves. Rookie Jadan Wong scored the game winner with a spectacular bicycle kick in the 57th minute of play, off a perfect touch pass from Enzo Paal. Jeevin Kang scored his first career goal in the 30th minute, before UNBC came back to tie just a minute later. Heat keeper Tait Cuthill needed four saves for his first win,

The Kelowna Curling Club will host the CIS curling championships next spring.
CIS finals at KCC Trips to the 2017 Winter Universiade in Almaty, Kazakhstan, will be on the line when Canada’s best university curling teams gather in Kelowna next spring for the CIS/Curling Canada Canadian University Curling Championships. The annual national tournament will be hosted March 20 to 23, 2016 at the Kelowna Curling Club. The winning teams in Kelowna will represent Canada at the 2017
Winter Universiade, scheduled for Jan. 28 to Feb. 8 in Almaty. “We’re thrilled to see the CIS/Curling Canada championships return to British Columbia for the second time in four years,” said Graham Brown, the new chief executive officer of CIS. “The City of Kelowna has a long tradition of curling excellence and there is no doubt the organizing committee will offer our CIS student-athletes an unforgettable experience,

especially with this year’s championship teams earning the opportunity to represent Canada at the 2017 Winter Universiade.” Kelowna Curling Club general manager Jock Tyre said university curling is a nice compliment to other levels of the sport all across the country. “The CIS program is relatively new to British Columbia’s schools, and it encourages juniors moving into adult curling to make one more step,” said Tyre. “It brings a great transition and offers yet another step to a world championship, allowing a smooth transition and additional experience out of juniors and into men’s and women’s curling. “Many competitive curlers have used it as a jumping stone into men’s and women’s including Brendan Bottcher, Beanne Meakin, Charlie Thomas and Laura Crocker.” It will be the ninth edition of the CIS/ Curling Canada university nationals, and it will be the first time the event has been staged in Kelowna. It’s the second time the championships have been decided in B.C. after Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops hosted in 2013.

The UBC Okanagan Heat kept Victoria penned in their end, scoring 22 unanswered points to defeat the visiting squad 27-17 on Saturday afternoon as in a friendly rugby match in Kelowna at the Parkinson Recreation Centre. Bryce Stirling straightarmed his way for the opening score for UBC Okanagan, his try started a run of 22 straight points, Colin Stonier converted his try and then he converted after Jed Anderson was held up and the Heat forward moved the pile in impressive fashion for the score. Stonier, a back from Earl Marriott Secondary, did most of the kicking for the Heat, he converted two of the four UBC Okanagan tries and scored the only points for the Heat in the first half with a unconverted try. Another Earl Marriott grad, Kai Duchnycz, scored UBC Okanagan’s final try of the game. Dominic Haynes, late in the match, nailed a PK to finish the scoring and cap the 10-point win for the Heat. Victoria opened up with a PK for three points before Stonier answered with his try. Victoria

That inherent credibility causes those words to sow seeds of doubt in your mind about your entitlement to fair, financial compensation for your injuries and losses. “Maybe there is something wrong with me that I haven’t recovered,” “Maybe there was something more that I could have done which
would have led to my recovery.” Those seeds of doubt help the claims adjuster to convince you to accept a level of compensation that is far below what is fair. It is a level of unfairness that I call cheating and it is every bit as distasteful in my view as those pathetic worms who try to cheat the insurance company.

Carson Air, ROV make simulator possible Support from two local companies will soon place future aviators behind the controls of a cuttingedge flight simulator at Okanagan College. Carson Air has pledged $125,000 to support the purchase and installation of a Redbird FMX flight simulator at the College’s Kelowna campus. “We hope this gift challenges and inspires many students, as they hone their skills and work towards careers as professional aviators,” said Kevin Carson, president and operations manager of Carson Air. The donation was announced at the opening of a training facility at the Southern Interior Flight Centre (SIFC) in the Carson Air Group’s new hangar at the Kelowna International Airport. The simulator purchase was also made possible by a donation of $25,000 from ROV Consulting, a structural engineering firm based in Kelowna. “It has been wonderful to watch the diversification in programming at Okanagan College over

Cop convicted of child SENDING A MESSAGE Seeking ecology/economy balance porn possession Kathy Michaels kmichaels@kelownacapnews.con
A former Vernon Mountie was convicted Friday of possessing and downloading child pornography, and he’ll be in jail one more day for the crime. Ryan Hampton has already spent seven months behind bars for the 2013 crime, and for that Justice Barry Davies granted him one-anda-half time credit, the equivalent of 10 and a half months served. The minimum mandatory sentence Hampton faced was six months, so the time served plus a day sentence is what Davies called “reasonable.” “Downloading and possessing child pornography are serious charges because the ability and willingness to do so, not only demeans society in general, but also encourages the production of such heinous materials,” Davies said, explaining that’s why there is a prison sentence attached to the crime. “He mustn’t be punished for their actions, but for his.” Davies also pointed out that Hampton had suffered hard time for the crime. Sex crimes against children aren’t received
well by other inmates, let alone those who are former Mounties, so Hampton has spent much of the last seven months in solitary confinement. Davies also pointed out that during his confinement in Kelowna cells, as the trial was underway, his former colleagues had been “less than kind” to him. And, as he is released into the community with probationary terms, it’s unlikely Hampton will have an easy go of things, he said. “He will never be a police officer again, he lost his career and he lost his family,” said Davies. In addition to the child porn charge, Hampton was found guilty of six counts of breaching court orders to contact his ex wife, Const. Valerie Little. Little is the person who turned Hampton in to police, after she found a jump drive with images of child porn in May of 2013. That jump drive had 60 images and three videos of activity Davies said fit the description of child porn. Over the course of the trial, the defence tried to convince the court that Little had been the one to download the child porn in an attempt to frame and extort Hampton as their relationship eroded. While Davies conceded some of Little’s testimony
over the two week trial was suspect—especially her claims that she wasn’t tech savvy enough for such subterfuge—he didn’t believe the whole of her evidence was suspect enough to throw it out entirely. In particular, he noted, Hampton had mentioned he had downloaded child porn “by accident” to several colleagues. He told those colleagues that it was an accident that occurred when he was trolling for “young women” on porn sites. He also said that the information on the jump drive was either a solitary image or a collection of web addresses where the porn was found. Also, that Little wanted him to sign over the deed to their shared home, and was blackmailing him with the drive. Davies pointed out that in discussions with his colleagues, he never once said that it was Little who downloaded the images. That narrative, he said, didn’t show up until much further down the road. Hampton must travel to Alberta after he is released from custody to face drunk driving charges. Hampton, a father of five, maintains his innocence, and is expected to appeal.
STANDING FROM A1 “The main industries in Kelowna and the Okanagan are tourism, agriculture, real estate, construction and tech,” he said. “All of these things are thriving because this is a beautiful place to live and work, and that is worth recognizing and protecting. I work at a winery, and when we export to China or Europe, we do it on the basis of having clean air, water and soil… That’s what Canada’s international brand is all about.” That brand is increasingly valuable, he said, given that it’s only recently that most of the world has opened their eyes to the fact that humans are dramatically affecting the natural environment. “I don’t think there is an argument against doing this,” he said. “I believe the choice between economy or ecology will balance itself. Charter rights always balance each other.” We have the right to free speech, he pointed out, while protections against hate speech are also in place “Would this mean we would have to stop driving cars, and the oil fields will shut down?” he said.
Trunk sale will feature great bargains The annual Fall Trunk Sale will take place Saturday on the Kelowna campus of Okanagan College, 8 a.m. to noon. Organized by the Regional Waste Reduction Office, the trunk sale will feature more than 150 vendors selling their wares straight from the trunks of their vehicles in the parking lot next to the student residence buildings. Rae Stewart, waste reduction facilitator, says these trunk sales promote reuse and recycling, and sweet deals are the order of the day. “It’s one humungous community style garage sale, one convenient location, great food, tons of bargains. It’s a terrific way to spend a Saturday morning,” Stewart said. As well on Saturday, the Kelowna and District SHARE Society will be on
hand to accept donations, as will Big Brothers Big Sisters, Planet Earth Recycling and the
Canadian Diabetes Clothesline group. The Okanagan Mission Lions Club will be selling
“No, we are a resource based economy, that’s not going to change. “But it would mean that communities where people live are protected from adverse affects of these industries. I believe it would create a new consciousness and awareness in our economy.” Kelowna city council will have its first official opportunity to weigh in on the issue this week with a motion brought forward by the City of Richmond. The resolution will allow B.C.’s local leaders to vote on a resolution that calls on the provincial government to enact an Environmental Bill of Rights. It’s unclear where Kelowna’s mayor and council will land, but it could signal how they will vote when the request for a local declaration is before them. To learn more about “The right to a healthy environment” in Canada’s Charter of Rights and
Freedoms, or to sign a petition to encourage local government to sign a declaration, there’s an event being held this weekend. Innerfish Performance Co and Conduit presents The Right to a Healthy Environment at the Kelowna Community Theatre, on Sunday Sept.

a budding entrepreneur. Every year, thousands of people from all walks of life— employee, student, housewife, immigrant, retired, disabled—bid to become an entrepreneur. Many succeed, many fail. For those who do fail, often it’s because they weren’t ready for the demands of an entrepreneurial challenge. Quitting a full-time job or career position to launch an entrepreneurial venture isn’t something to be taken lightly by anyone. How do you know if the entrepreneurial life is for you? Even if self-assessment tests indicate you’ve got the right personality for entrepreneurial success, that still doesn’t guarantee it will happen
for you. Do I have enough money? Is my family ready for the change? Does the market need a service or product such as I am embracing as my opportunity entry? If the answers to those questions are a resounding yes, that is a first step in the right direction. Most successful entrepreneurs recall a sense of urgency, a necessity to earn a living, that prompted them to begin their journey. Many say they knew when the time was right for them personally to start their own venture. For others, getting fired, laid off or passed over for promotion fueled the fire of their entrepreneurial spirit. The fundamental need to control one’s own destiny ranks very high on most entrepreneurs list for pursuing an

entrepreneurial dream. Often this “need” resonates so strongly that entrepreneurs will risk family, future and careers to become their own boss. Unable to feel truly fulfilled working for someone else, many of us grow to disdain taking orders in any fashion from someone higher in the pecking order. A key element that determines your readiness is raising the money required from investors to launch an idea. I am confronted with this issue every other day in my function as an investment/finance broker, working to assist the good folks of western Canada to find investment/finance funds for their dreams. If you can make other people believe in your dream and put up their cash behind it, that is a big step towards finding success. Besides investment capital, the other reality
check involves market research for a business idea, and how it will impact the lifestyle for you and your family. All entrepreneurs at the start must be ready to defer gratification and make substantial sacrifices to ensure your rewards eventually come your way. It is a rarity that one person has all the qualities needed to be successful in venture creation. Everyone has strong and weak points in their makeup. What is important is to recognize, acknowledge and understand those strengths and weaknesses and do something positively constructive about them. Let me leave you today with this quote of inspiration: “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how a strong man stumbles, or where a doer of deeds could have actually done them better. “The credit belongs to
the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes up short again and again. “Because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who is at the best, knows in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.” Joel Young is an entrepreneurial leadership educator, coach and consultant and founder of the Okanagan Valley Entrepreneurs Society. eagleyoung@shaw.ca

Robin Roberts Certified Carpet Cleaning Technician/Oxy-Dry System Developer
A
Q
Do you recommend plastic runners to protect high traffic areas of carpet?
It used to be a common idea to use plastic runners to cover carpeting in high traffic areas and on steps. Although not so popular now, people still do it. This is not a wise idea for several reasons. The most obvious problem is the safety hazard. Plastic is very slippery when wet or when your footwear is damp. Steps covered in plastic are particularly dangerous. Sometimes the edges will lift up possibly causing someone to trip and fall. Another reason not to use plastic is that soil accumulates along the edges and is difficult to vacuum away. When cleaning, the plastic runner needs to be lifted to properly clean the build up of soil. The area covered by the plastic may experience a color change due to uneven fading, soiling and wear that is often impossible to correct. You can avoid all these issues by not using plastic runners in your home. Proper vacuuming with a quality vacuum, taking your shoes off at the door and a regular cleaning by Oxy-Dry® (before traffic lanes appear) will ensure your carpets look good and are a lasting investment.
