We asked you: What more should the federal government do to reconcile how badly aboriginal youth were treated and aboriginal culture was stifled?
Joe
Kenner Henderson

Ali Butler
Finbar O’Sullivan
Jordan Coble
“I don’t know how you can reconcile that. It’s kind of like what we should have done about Nazism or something, it’s over and done with. We can’t be harping on about it the rest of our lives, we have to treat them well now.”
“The original issue of the mishandling of the forced schooling needs a study. There are a couple of issues, one is the poverty and extreme errors of the financial running of the reservations and the other is the high crime rate associated with the aboriginal females—the abuse and the unsolved murders. They seem to disappear without proper follow-up.”
“Education has been a difficult problem, one of the reasons is that tribalism is weakened by the education system because as kids get educated, they leave and it breaks down the tribal community… There are a lot of highly educated First Nations out there doing a lot of really great stuff, and as their voice is heard then things will start to move. The federal government needs to listen, something they have not done.
“They should support prevention work and bring back youth funding to friendship centres to help urban aboriginal youth. They need to make sure our natural resources and water are protected for all Canadians to enjoy.”
“They should reconcile. They need to step up to the plate and fix what needs to be fixed and build better relationships with First Nations across Canada.”
“They need recognition and awareness of aboriginal issues and where they stand today but also based on the history of colonization which has left inter-generational effects. They should focus on specific issues in specific communities because not every community has the same problems.”
OKANAGAN INDIAN BAND
Having a greater voice tied to economic growth Kevin Parnell kparnell@kelownacapnews.com
The Okanagan Indian Band won’t be endorsing any political party in the Oct. 19 federal election for fear that it could have a negative impact on the band’s future ability to partner with the federal government. OKIB chief Byron Louis says aboriginal leaders have been stung in the past by publicly supporting one party over another. Louis said he also has rarely voted in federal elections because he doesn’t want his band to suffer the consequences of supporting the wrong party. “Asking First Nations at the national level and down to endorse any political party puts us in a very bad position,” said Louis. “In the past we have suffered greatly for this. We are not in a position to be critical of anybody because they have a way of making us pay. “It’s undeniable and a reality for a lot of First Nations. Why take a chance (by voting) if you are going to
OKIB Chief Byron Louis: “We are not in a position to be critical of anybody because they have a way of making us pay.” be penalized for your vote.” Louis pointed to high profile First Nations leaders such as Ovide Mercredi, the national chief of the Assembly of First Nations from 1994
to ‘97, who had a close relationship to prime minister Brian Mulroney and the Progressive Conservative party. But according to Louis, when the Liberals took power after the PCs, funding to the AFN was slashed. Louis also said it was the same with national chief Matthew Coon Come (2000 to 2003), who spoke out against prime minister Jean Chretien and Canada’s treatment of aboriginals, only to see funding cut by as much as a third the next year. Louis said while the privacy of individual band member votes would be protected, it wouldn’t be difficult for the governing party to find out who a particular native band was supporting. But he added as First Nations groups continue to evolve and become more self sufficient with development of their reserve lands, the backlash for speaking out may come to an end. “The current process of punishing First Nations for being outspoken is going to be short-lived,” said Louis. “Once First Nations get back on their economic feet they will not have
the opportunity to do that. With economic power, you finally get the respect of the powers that be. “Up to this date, we have been low in economic power, but as that grows so does the ability to start to win influence.” Louis said the seven different native bands in the Okanagan— OKIB, Westbank First Nation, Penticton, Osoyoos, Upper and Lower Similkameen and Upper Nicola— represent some 5,600 First Nations whose economic power is growing with more and more development on native land. And he said that development also serves to stimulate the local and regional economies. So while Louis said this year’s federal election is important, it’s more important that First Nations groups have a solid partnership with whichever party is in power. “For us there is no denying the importance of every federal election for aboriginal people and this one is no different,” he said. “We have to really look at the parties and who actually has the

potential for forming government and what the platform is going to be for the next four years.” In terms of issues, Louis said the environment, and specifically water, is a major issue moving forward, especially for those living within 250 kilometres of the Canada-US border, where the majority of Canada’s population resides, putting the most stress on water systems. “We’re quite concerned with the lifting of the protection of water in some of these omnibus bills,” he said. “To us that’s absurd. To lift restrictions or guidelines to protect water doesn’t make sense. It’s an important issue for everyone. “For First Nations the basis of a lot of our Supreme Court challenges have been fish and aquatic resources. We’re very concerned about it and so should everybody else be.” With respect to the federal election, Louis said he believes OKIB members are paying close attention to the campaign.

Band members’ votes not seen as influential GROWTH FROM A3 But with a small band of about 2,000 members, he says it’s not like they can make a huge difference in the vote. “Without a doubt I really believe that there is a high percentage of our members that are paying attention because whoever is sitting behind the prime minister’s desk has the ability to affect them,” said Louis. “I think our people are watching. But when you take into consideration our numbers, it’s not really like we could greatly effect any number of elections in the Okanagan Valley. “There are places where First Nations in Canada can make a difference in some northern ridings where First Nations are 40 or 50 per cent of the population.

helping meet the needs of the people he serves. The affable back bencher, who is often lauded for his hard work behind the scenes, said his years on city council also helped prepare him for taking local issues and concerns to Ottawa and bringing them to the attention of government officials. But while he can trot out a long list of accomplishments in terms dof government funding for the riding since 2006, he’s also quick to share the credit with others, saying an important part of an MP’s job is creating partnerships with other
politicians both federal and provincial, the public and private sector and social agencies. Over the years, Cannan has developed close working relationships not only with his Conservative counterpart on the west side of Okanagan Lake, but also with two of the three B.C. Liberal MLAs representing the Central Okanagan. A married father of three adult daughters and a grandfather of three, Cannan says serving as the MP for the last nine years would not have been possible without the support of his family. “This job really does affect the whole family,” he said. “You miss a lot of

Spiritually uplifting powwows help heal old wounds Kathy Michaels kmichaels@kelownacapnews.com
RE -E LE CT
Richard Jackson knows a lot about reconciliation. He’s reconciled himself with a childhood disrupted by Canada’s residential schools, and with the many ways his community struggled for stability long after the majority of those schools shut down. As the Truth and Reconciliation Commission traveled across Canada examining the legacy of residential schools, he also reconciled himself with taking on the heavy emotional weight that came with revisiting those
memories. “It opens up old wounds to talk about it, but the healing I’ve done is something I’m happy to share with people,” said Jackson, who works as a resident elder with the Central Okanagan School District. He is part of the Thompson band, but lives in the Okanagan and is a familiar presence at local powwows for his emceeing. While some may just enjoy the music and the dances involved with powwows as entertainment, Jackson explained there is more to them than meets the eye. As the drum beats,
the history of residential schools is oftentimes explored in song, reflecting the significant role they now play in aboriginal history. At its peak there were 80 residential schools across Canada, and over 150,000 children walked through their doors. Some were given an education and walked away with few scars. But the commission found that for the vast majority, the experiences were of cruel abuse and hardship as the government pursued the goal of “removing the Indian from the child.” In addition to practices that fragmented families
and indigenous culture, 4,000 children died during their stays. “I made it. I went through it. I am not blaming anybody,” said Jackson, pointing out that traditions that settlers tried to snuff out have helped the process. “In our powwows, we experience a very highly-positive spiritual cleansing. We balance and ground ourselves, physically, mentally, spiritually and emotionally.” They have helped him, but overall forgiveness, he explained, is a nuanced concept that will require buy-in from whatever government Canadians elect. “They’ve started with the apology,” Jackson said. “But they need to have more funding for schools, for housing and for education so we can compete with the jobs that are going on today.” Some funds aimed at addressing aboriginal needs have been spent over the course of the
Harper government’s tenure, but the relationship between the current government and Canada’s aboriginals can be most politely described as tense. Grand Chief Stewart Phillip is an Okanagan aboriginal leader who has served as president of the Union of BC Indian Chiefs since 1998. He explained that’s because shortly after Harper was elected, his government rejected Liberal leader Paul Martin’s motion to adopt the Kelowna Accord, which came with a $5.1 billion boost to aboriginal spending over five years. The Conservatives are also the only party that has not committed to launching a full inquiry into missing and murdered aboriginal women. “The Harper government has pursued a unilateral legislative agenda that has not served the interests of aboriginal people in this country,” said Phillip, who is asking his
community to get out and vote for “anybody but Harper.”(See story A29.) It’s a strong political message that some say is resonating among young aboriginal voters, whose political will was galvanized in recent years by things like the Truth and Reconciliation process. Now that the truth part is over, and the Canadian government has apologized, questions about the best way to achieve reconciliation are being asked. It will be a long

process, Jackson said. “Healing is a journey, not a destination,” he said. “It’s a commitment we have to take for the rest of our lives. We need to heal the racism and show kindness to one another.” “Powwows are one good way to do that. They are the heartbeat of our First Nation people, our cultural identity, and our aboriginal right. “They’re also empowering, and that’s what we need to share with non-native people.”

FIRST NATIONS ISSUES
Baker says to address issues with funding Kevin Parnell
$5.1 billion investment over five years. The problem was Paul Martin’s Liberal government was defeated shortly after the conference in 2005 and Conservative Stephen Harper took power. The Kelowna Accord was never fully implemented with the Conservatives, saying while they agreed with the goals of the accord, they did not agree with the funding associated with it. According to Baker, the relationship between First Nations groups and the federal government took a serious hit with the changes to the accord. Baker says while the issue of moving forward with First Nations concerns is complex, all it really is going to take is commitment from senior levels of government to fund much-needed help to aboriginal groups. “It could be done in very quick time if the federal and provincial government would put their minds to reconciling it,” said Baker. “There are issues that need to be addressed with funding and the ability for bands to

Lake Country Mayor James Baker has a unique perspective on native affairs in this country. As a municipal politician, he knows the intricacies of working with both the federal government and with First Nations groups such as the Okanagan Indian Band, which has reserves in and around Lake Country. As a retired professor, he taught anthropology and archaeology and the study of cultures. Among his students at Okanagan College were the chiefs of the two major Indian bands operating in the Central Okanagan: Byron Louis of the Okanagan Indian Band and Robert Louie of the Westbank First Nation. Baker says the current state of affairs with First Nations and the relationship between native groups and the government can date back to the illfated Kelowna Accord, negotiated right here in 2005. “A lot of bands thought they were further

ahead with the Kelowna Accord,” said Baker. “They were pleased with that, but it was scrapped and I think most of the issues First Nations people have with the Conservative government now is because of that. They settled it with a lot less generosity than it should have been and it’s been an ongoing issue ever since.” In 2005, the leaders of five national aboriginal organizations came together in Kelowna with the federal government as well as provincial and territorial governments to conclude an 18-monthlong consultation process on First Nations issues. The resulting Kelowna Accord proposed a number of initiatives on economic development, education, health and housing and included a
their affairs to a much better extent than when they can only do things through Ottawa,” said Baker. “It’s hard enough for local government to get things out of Ottawa, never mind nongovernment groups.” Baker said a commitment is needed to allow First Nations self-government and the ability to prosper. “They certainly are able to manage their self government because they had self government as individual bands and even as tribal associations for thousands of years and were able to make a living from the land,” said Baker. “They should still be able to, but in a different manner now: In manufacturing, mining or logging, not as hunters and gatherers.”
manage their own affairs. “It has been simply shown that if bands are given access to the resources they have had for tens of thousands of years they are able to manage them.” Baker says First Nations groups should have been given fair treatment many years ago, but instead of allowing them to prosper, the federal government viewed Indians as a people that needed to be looked after like children instead of equal playing partners. When given the chance, he said many bands have found success and prosperity. “Where band leaders have been able to get concessions from the federal or provincial government to tap into their resources, whether that be logging, mining or natural gas, they have shown they can manage
Shoulder aches and pains are common, but because our arms seldom get a rest, these aches often become chronic injuries: knots, spasms, frozen shoulder and tendonitis. Many of us learn to live with it and think, “It’s a part of my lifestyle or job”. Many of us have had chronic tendonitis, making it difficult to lift a carton of milk or wash our hair. And many of us have exhausted a variety of therapies.
DR. RYAN HARRIS
Therapy, the only therapy I found to get rid of my pain and heal my injury. Shockwave, developed to break up kidney stones, can break down scar tissue and stimulate new blood vessel growth, promoting proper muscle function and restarting the healing process.
It is in those injuries that have lingered for months or years where shockwave shines. If you have chronic shoulder injuries, don’t give up hope. If I had, I would not be in practice today.
Glenmore Chiropractic
Most therapies have an affect only on new injuries that are days to weeks old. Once scar tissue forms and healing stops (chronic), we are at the mercy of the injury. Over and over in my practice I hear, “I have been dealing with this injury for months or years and tried everything. Nothing has worked… what do I do?”
According to the Journal of the American Medical Association 2005, shockwave therapy had a 91% success rate for the treatment of calcific Rotator Cuff Tendonitis. Results are often experienced within a couple of visits and the treatment is covered by many insurance companies.
I tell them about the tennis elbow and shoulder tendonitis I had, both of which nearly caused me to shut down my practice. I talk about the multitude of therapies I tried to no avail. Then I talk about Shockwave

Opinion
When it’s time to correct a wrong In today’s federal election coverage, our newspaper has focused on aboriginal issues facing our country. Truth and reconciliation is a term often used to describe the status of the relationship between our government and aboriginal people. The truth is about acknowledging our governmentinstituted sins of the past. Reconciliation is about our aboriginal people moving forward, economically and culturally. In other words, it’s about money. Prime Minister Stephen Harper has taken the step, symbolic but still important, to acknowledge those misdeeds of past generations to attempt to eradicate the aboriginal culture. Those misplaced policies have since been well documented. The abuse that children in residential schools suffered, how the physical and mental harm was inflicted on those students, in turn left without the resources or help to end the recycling of the damage as they became adults. The new generations of aboriginals, educated in the post-secondary world and still proud of their heritage and determined to correct the ills of the past while moving forward, seriously began in the 1980s as they challenged
how government has dealt with them. Land claim legal issues have been on the forefront since then, a long arduous legal battle that rests here in B.C. today with the assertion from our own premier than developing our natural resources will require addressing aboriginal land rights issues, already clearly evident in the northern B.C. pipeline debate. Here in the Okanagan, we have seen the success of the Westbank First Nation taking on the role of selfgovernance, the issue of land rights played out during the negotiations over the Okanagan Rail Trail involving the Okanagan Indian Band, and the environment and other land use support initiatives of the Okanagan Nation Alliance. We are making baby steps, but the elephant in the room remains to achieve that reconciliation, and it will likely come with a hefty price-tag, a combination of cash and economic development opportunity and infrastructure. Besides land claims, it’s about creating the financial impetus to meet the current and future education, business development, social and health care needs of aboriginal band members.

L c Dilemma of kids home alone When I was in Grade 4, I envied my neighbour, “the latchkey kid.” For a couple hours, before her mom got back from work, she had the freedom to open her own front door and rummage through her fridge and cupboards, like only the big people could do at my house. She had candy and could eat it whenever she wanted. Nobody was debriefing her on the day’s events with the intensity of an army investigator. There were no demands to walk her dogs at 3:30 p.m. on the dot. And there was the TV at her house. Man, the TV was sublime. I consumed my first episode of General Hospital on her harvest patterned couch. An appetite for schmaltzy story lines has never left me, thanks to those days. On weekends, her parents got together and took her on great adventures, all across the city. I got to go along while my parents stayed home and did what they could do, as a one-income family. Of course, the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence, which in this case was literally true. The Sergeant is fastidious, bless her wellorganized heart. To this day, my old friend says she envied my Mom.

And she brought them to us in between rounds of questions about our daily activities. While I could have done without the continual demands about my dog, and brushing my hair, my friend seemed to really cosy up to the Sergeant. And, perhaps most importantly, in times of trouble, during the two hours before her mum came home from work, she’d pad her way down the street to our door and get whatever mother-influence was required. Sometimes it was just a stern, unwelcome lecture. Those are the days I’ve been thinking about all week, with the B.C. Supreme Court decision that backed the assertion eight-year-old children are too young to be left home alone. The decision upheld an earlier

provincial court decision to slap an interim supervision order on a Terrace woman, barring her from leaving her eight-year-old child alone at home. The unidentified single mother was leaving her son home to fend for himself for a few hours each weekday, like countless moms before her have done. The boy was alone from the time he got home from school about 3 p.m. until his mother arrived home two hours later. A neighbour complained to social workers, and the social worker filed a report to the provincial court, and the director of Child and Family Services brought an application for a supervision order stipulating that the boy’s care must be supervised for six months. The social worker testified that, in her opinion “children who are eight years of age do not have the cognitive ability to be left unsupervised,” citing various risks, including accidental poisoning or fires, which could arise “regardless of [the boy’s] level of maturity.” The provincial court judge took that testimony seriously, and ruled that children younger than 10 could not be safely left alone.

Prospera Place needs hand rails on stairs To the editor: I am writing in regards to hand railings in Prospera Place. I am 86 years old and have attended every WHL hockey game since the building opened. I have had meetings with former mayor Walter Gray, contacted Kelowna Rockets president Bruce Hamilton as well as the building inspector about the lack of hand railings. Gray indicated that some railings would be installed last fall, but it’s a good thing I didn’t hold my breath over that. I have written two letters to R.G. Properties, one by registered mail, and I’m still waiting for a reply. I have watched over the years people struggle to get up the arena stairs, especially the older ones. Some of them have quit going
to the hockey games because of it. What I have found is that people with the power to do something don’t seem to give a damn. They are playing the blame game at our expense. The city along with R.G. Properties are to blame for this matter. The city had to approve the plans for the building and the occupation permit when it was completed. R.G. Properties built the arena to code at that time, but they should have used their common sense knowing you shouldn’t have steps without railings. It’s like building washrooms without toilets. Stairs and railings, they are like two peas in a pod, you can’t have one without the other. In constructing the arena, the workers had to follow safety rules—hard hats, proper
CONCERNED CITIZEN
Little evidence warming climate leads to forest fires
To the editor: Former Green Party candidate Angela Nagy (Economic Opportunities Get Overlooked, Sept. 18 Kelowna Capital News) is wrong to imply that extreme weather events and forest fires are caused by climate change. This is one of the few areas of agreement between the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC—see ipcc.ch) and the Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change (NIPCC—see www. climatechangereconsidered.org). In 2012 the IPCC asserted that a relationship between global warming and wildfires, rainfall, storms, hurricanes, and other extreme weather events has not been demonstrated. In their latest assessment report released on Sept. 27, 2013, IPCC scientists concluded that they had only “low confidence” that “damaging increases will occur in either drought or tropical cyclone activity” as a result of global warming. n The NIPCC report released on Sept. 17, 2013 concluded the same, asserting that: “In no case has a convincing relationship been established between warming over the past 100 years and increases in any of these extreme events.” The real tragedy in all this is that, because of the overconfidence of activists like Al Gore
and David Suzuki that we can control climate as if we had a global thermostat, most climate funding is devoted to supposedly preventing climate change that may happen in the future, not what is actually happening today due to natural climate variability. According to the San Francisco-based Climate Policy Initiative (CPI) report (October 2013), of the approximately $357 billion US (almost $1 billion per day) that was spent on climate finance across the world in 2012, only six per cent of it went to helping people prepare for and adapt to climate change today. CPI’s 2011 report showed that, even within developing countries, only five per cent of climate finance went into adaptation, a crime that costs many lives every year in poor nations. The rest of the money went to trying to stop climate change that might happen decades in the future. This is immoral, giving more value to the lives of people yet to be born than those suffering today. Nagy should consider whether she is on the right side of this debate. Tom Harris, executive director, International Climate Science Coalition (ICSC), Ottawa
Case for universal child care MICHAELS FROM A10 The mother appealed the decision, contending there was no basis for the judge to conclude the eight-year-old was in need of protection but BC Supreme Court Justice Robert Punnett held up the decision this week. Personally, I agree with the court decisions. All you have to do is speak to a child who is eight years old to realize they couldn’t respond to worst case scenarios in the way that’s needed. Life, however, is increasingly complicated and expensive. The ‘80s are dead and gone. Neighbourhoods are no longer networks of families able to step in when another steps out, like mine was. Worse, however, is that being a stay at
home parent isn’t just a crimp on spending, for many it’s a financial killer. The only people I know who are able to do it, are ones who have had the realization that daycare for multiple children costs more in this day and age, than they are able to earn. So I can’t help but wonder if this woman had access to affordable childcare for the required time frame, would she even be rationalizing the decision? While this decision reflects my beliefs on whether children should stay at home, it also reminds me that Canadians need to demand more from their country. Nothing is more important than providing safe child care at an affordable cost. Even if you don’t have children anymore, the value of that service should seem obvious. So much more obvious than whether or not we should still have latchkey kids.
boots, guard railings and safety ropes. Through the years, safety has always been a concern of mine, and it should be for everyone else as well. With regards to the stair railing at Prospera, I have even thought of writing a cheque to cover the cost of railings for my seat section. But do not think that by using fancy words this situation will go away. I will do whatever it takes to get this situation rectified. It’s time Prospera Place was brought up to the present day building code. Henry Johnson, Kelowna

Control of water supply Open letter to Kelowna Mayor Colin Day: With regards to the Kelowna area five water systems and IHAs control of the operations of good water supplies for domestic use. [Integrated Water Eases Costs, Sept. 23 Kelowna Capital News.] People of Kelowna should be more informed re where their water comes from, how it is handled, whether its is filtered, chlorinated, or oxygenated by O3, and ask what they can say about their future supply. People in Glenmore who use water from the Glenmore reservoir should realize that it contains duck poop and is exposed to all the elements i.e. it is not a protected pond with regards to potential contaminations. Bear Lake is used for the west side of the lake as well as Rose Valley dam and McCullough Lakes serve East Kelowna. Oyama Lake does Oyama. Kelowna uses lake pumps both at Knox Mountain and in the Mission. Westbank pumps from the lake for some areas. How can we improve on this five system operation? One suggestion is that all five units should only use water pulled from Okanagan Lake—one system for all. Why is this recommended? This would be to have quality control of supply at source. How do we improve quality at source? Do not dump any treated sewage into Okanagan Lake— none.

In a recent interview with the Toronto Star, Assembly of First Nations National Chief Perry Bellegarde was asked to rate the relationship between the current Conservative government and Canada’s aboriginal people on a scale of one to 10. While the AFN nation chief said it would not be a 10 or a one, he added the score would be pretty low. The main parties running in this federal election are all looking to raise that number should they form the next government. As a result, while aboriginal issue platform policies have not been fully released by the parties, promises of support for the country’s aboriginal population have already been made. The Conservatives, in the most recent federal budget, included $200 million over five years to help First Nations, $215 million

is expected to include promises of more money for First Nations’ education and infrastructure on reserves. As government, the Greens say they will restore the $5.1 billion commitment and the specifics of the Kelowna Accord, which was reached between federal and provincial, territorial and First Nations governments in Canada in November 2005. The Greens propose to increase access for First Nations education by removing the two per cent funding cap and fully funding the program back log at a cost of $424 million They’d also ensure that Canada upholds the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People and launch a full inquiry into missing and murdered Aboriginal women; Liberal leader Justin Trudeau has already promised $2.6 billion in spending on First Nations issues, including $515 million per year in core funding for kindergarten to Grade 12
over five years to provide skills and development training for aboriginal people, and $34 million over five years to help the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency support consultations with indigenous peoples over resource management issues. An earlier commitment by the government pledged $500 million over seven years to improve on-reserve school infrastructure. Meanwhile, NDP leader Thomas Mulcair, prior to releasing his party’s aboriginal platform, has vowed to set up a national inquiry into the issue of missing and murdered aboriginal women within the first 100 days of an NDP government taking power and creation of a cabinetlevel committee to make sure treaty rights, inherent rights and Canada’s international obligations to its First Nations are met when government decisions are made. The party’s aboriginal platform

education on reserves. That figure would rise to $750 million per year by the end of the Liberals’ first term in office. Another $500 million over three years has been promised for school infrastructure on reserves and $50 million more per year in financial assistance for aboriginal students attending post-secondary education. Trudeau has also pledged to implement all the recommendations made by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and call a national public inquiry into the issue of murdered and missing aboriginal women. Speaking at an all-candidates forum at UBC Okanagan on Wednesday, Kelowna-LakeCountry Liberal candidate Stephen Fuhr said for him the issue of dealing with aboriginal issues goes beyond simply dollar and cents. It is a moral one. “(The federal government)

Good hearing but trouble with conversation? A lot of people have trouble catching what people say, especially in group situations, despite having good hearing. What a lot of people don’t know is that this may be caused by damage to the so-called motor or amplifier function of special cells in the ear. A new type of hearing aid can help balance this out.
a good solution for most people.

plus eEdition fee & HST A great many people have difficulty hearing others clearly on a daily basis. Bad acoustics, unclear pronunciation, background noise and music often make it challenging to catch what people say. This results in them having to repeatedly ask questions, straining to hear and perhaps increasingly avoiding discussions in large groups. As mentioned earlier, this may be caused by malfunctions in special cells in the ear. According to a theory proposed by hearing researchers, “motor cells” are a type of hair cell responsible for amplifying quiet sounds. They vibrate up to 20,000 times per second. If these hair cells do not work properly then quiet
Hair cells in the ear move very rapidly and can act as an amplifier or dampener. If these cells are damaged, they can no longer properly amplify speech and dampen loud noises.
This improvement in hearing can be achieved for some clients through the new Phonak Audéo V’s hearing aids. This cutting-edge hearing technology comes in a miniature casing that can significantly enhance the user’s ability to hear speech in company. The hearing aids attune to the person you are speaking to and can also recognize if ambient noise increases in the background.
Connect Hearing is currently looking to improve hearing for people who experience these challenges and want to try this new technology. We are particularly interested in candidates sounds are no longer naturally who have trouble hearing speech in amplified in the ear and loud sounds the situations discussed above and can benefit from a demonstration no longer dampened. to see whether they notice an This leads to more difficulty in improvement. hearing what is said in a lot of situations.

generated, so their answers are below. The question asked was: Do you support the right to a healthy environment being part of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms? Dan Albas (Conservative): “In principle, I believe Canadians would support a healthy environment as part of our charter. The challenge legislators face is creating a definition that clearly outlines what a healthy environment means in a legal context. I certainly support and welcome further discussion on how we can reduce pollution. Norah Bowman (NDP): “As the environment minister of Quebec, NDP leader Tom Mulcair made the right to a healthy environment the law of the land. As MP, I will work to restore protections to our lakes
and waterways, and work o with the provinces to d enshrine the same right s for all Canadians, from a coast to coast to coast.” T Ron Cannan p (Conservative): “The t Charter of Rights o upholds our freedom w and equality.

of rights C-469 demonstrating their support for the right to a healthy environment. This was a logical precursor to recognizing this right in the Charter of Rights, however, it was not supported by the Conservatives and ultimately interrupted by the 2011 election. Robert Mellalieu (Green): “Our Vision Green does not mention the idea of a Charter of
Rights and Freedoms amendment. However, I will work for this to be added to our Charter of Rights and Freedoms. It would be an overriding, all-encompassing amendment to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms that would allow for the rights of individuals to clean air, clean water and clean soil. These rights would be an excellent way to protect the environment—by

and economy have a synergy that helps both grow.” The other candidates chose not to respond to the question.

made agreements and (it) has to live up to them,” he said. “We have a constitutional responsibility here, but it is also the right thing to do.” Conservative candidate Ron Cannan told the Kelowna Capital News as the MP for the last nine years, he has developed a good working relationship with leaders of both the Westbank First Nation and the Okanagan Indian Band, one that has seen results, such as more money for skills training for aboriginal students at both Okanagan College and UBCO and on-reserve infrastructure for the Okanagan Indian Band.

The NDP candidate running in the Kelowna-Lake Country riding, Norah Bowman told the all-candidates gathering at UBCO she was proud her party would immediately launch a national public inquiry into the issue of murdered and missing aboriginal women in Canada if it forms the next government.

In five seasons as a head coach at the professional level, Brad Ralph never had a losing record. Based on the major junior team he’s inheriting, there’s no reason to believe his streak of competence will end in 2015-16. Still, Ralph knows it’s more than just winning records that have become the norm for the WHL’s Kelowna Rockets. With three consecutive 50-win seasons, followed by a fifth trip to the Memorial Cup by the franchise last spring, expectations in Kelowna have never been higher. “I’m getting a pretty good sense of the legacy that’s been established here,” said Ralph, who was hired in August after three seasons with Idaho of the East Coast Hockey League. “I just know that my goal every year is to win every game wherever I coach, whether that’s
realistic or not. “There’s certainly an awareness of the expectations here,” added Ralph, “but I’ll put enough pressure on myself, I won’t need any reminders or motivation from anywhere else.” In addition to learning about the organization largely from scratch, Ralph has had to adjust to coaching younger, less experienced players than at the pro level. However, thanks to the talent and quality of players he’s been handed, Ralph said the transition has been relatively smooth. “There’s a little bit of a difference in terms of maturity where the players are at in terms of their preparation and focus,” he said. “It’s a little bit of a learning curve but for the most part, it’s been good. We have a great group of players to work with, so that helps a lot.” And while Ralph hasn’t had much time to get up to speed on all aspects of his job, Rockets’ GM Bruce
WARREN HENDERSON/CAPITAL NEWS
New coach embraces high expectations
New head coach Brad Ralph and the Kelowna Rockets open the WHL regular season tonight at home to the Kamloops Blazers. Hamilton is encouraged by the 34-year-old coach’s progress. “He’s come a long way
in a short period of time,” Hamilton said. “It’s not easy, a whole new team to deal with. He’s just
learning about these guys but I think he’ll do just fine.” With a group of skilled
and experienced forwards returning, a young and mobile defensive corps, and solid veteran
goaltending to fall back on, Ralph expects the Rockets to once again be a handful for opposing teams. “We’ll play fast, we’ll play an up-tempo style, and be creative off the rush,” he said. “All that being said, we’re stressing that we’re not sacrificing defensive play, we’re still going to play a complete game in all zones. “…and in goal, with (Whistle and Herringer) you can’t do much better than that.” And as much as Ralph has learned about his team in a few short weeks, he said the most substantial learning will happen once the puck drops to open the regular season. “I am excited to play games,” said Ralph. “I think it’s an easier way to get a feel for the players, to establish the style of game that we’re going to play and who fits in where. Everybody’s excited to get going.” @capnewsports.ca
Rockets veteran players motivated to take extra step Warren Henderson whenderson@kelownacapnews.com
Tyson Baillie and Jackson Whistle count themselves among returning Kelowna Rockets who will be thrilled to see three new banners raised to the rafters on Friday night at Prospera Place. It’s the conspicuous absence of the fourth— the Memorial Cup banner—that will serve as motivation for the Rockets throughout the 2015-16 campaign. The B.C. Division, Western Conference and WHL championship
banners will all be hoisted prior to tonight’s game vs the Kamloops Blazers. And while he plans to enjoy the moment, Baillie assures his attention will quickly turn to another matter. “It’s going to be really nice to reflect on last season on what we accomplished,” said Baillie, one of four overage players on the team’s roster. “But as soon the puck drops, we need to turn the page and get the season off on the right foot. “We wanted that big white banner, the Memorial Cup banner,
and didn’t get it,” he added. “We have another great shot at it, we have a great team this year, so that’s our goal.” As a fellow 20-yearold preparing for his final season, Whistle is on precisely the same page as Baillie, as the Rockets look to make amends for their season-ending loss to Oshawa in the Memorial Cup final. “I’d even say we’re more motivated than last year,” Whistle said. “After being there, seeing what it takes to get there, then the disappointment of coming up short, the feeling of losing in
overtime and seeing (Oshawa) celebrate… that’s the feeling you want. “It’s what we talk about all the time, we want to get back there.” And with a solid corps of returning players and a compliment of skilled newcomers, GM Bruce Hamilton expects his team to challenge for a second straight trip to the Canadian Hockey League championship. “I think this team has got as good a chance, probably a better chance right now than at the same time last year,” Hamilton said. “We have
an opportunity to be one of the top teams in the league and we certainly expect that, our fans expect it, so we’re looking forward to it.” While the Rockets will be a little green on defense to start the season, Hamilton said from back to front, the defending WHL champs are well-equipped. “We have as good a goaltenders as there are in the league,” he said. “Defensively it could be a little challenge early because we’re young, but that will iron itself out, if we need to make moves, we would do that in time.
Kelowna’s #1 Choice for Auto Glass
“Up front, we really like where we’re at, maybe as deep a team as we’ve ever added,” Hamilton continued. “We don’t have a (Leon) Draisaitl, but we’ve got (Nick) Merkley, (Rourke) Chartier, (Tyson) Baillie, (Dillon) Dube, (Justin) Kirkland…all real good players. “I think we’re going to score a lot of goals and that’s what the fans love.” The Rockets head into opening weekend without the services of Merkley. The team’s leading scorer from last season is expected to be
sidelined for several days with an upper body injury suffered while at Arizona Coyotes’ rookie camp. The Rockets will play three games in as many nights, as they visit the Blazers Saturday, before closing out the weekend with a game Sunday in Vancouver against the Giants.

Alves secured the two titles on consecutive days last weekend at the Mission Sports Fields. • KMSL On Saturday, Alves Bros. defeated Modern Furniture Pikeys 2-1 in the KMSL Div. 1/2 final. In the first half, Alves’ Michael De Melo swung a nice cross in for Morgan Marrs to head down Alves’ first goal of the game. Still in the first half, Jordan Hesketh intercepted a wayward pass through the middle of the field at the half way line. He would make a surging run forward before finding Marrs for
his second of the game after depositing it past a helpless Jason Lukkarinen. Pikey’s would not go away, however, and started their comeback quickly later on in the first half. After a bit of a scramble near the Alves goal, Matt Reese got onto the backside of the Alves defensive line and slotted one past Alves’ keeper, Todd Swaby. Half time would arrive and a pause in the action. Scoring chances in the second half were few and far between. After being awarded a corner from one of the counter attacks, Alves’ Kirby Carter was taken down in the area and awarded a penalty kick. Marrs would step up hoping to seal the victory

The Okanagan’s Weather Team
Rubadeau has had some success training Canadian athletes to be competitive against the world’s best athletes. Canada has routinely finished in the top half of the fleet at consecutive World Championships, and has finished just off the podium several times. This year’s team will be sailing the two-person Laser 2000. Rubadeau is particularly hopeful that the Canadian team will finish near the top of the fleet, as the boat will be helmed by accomplished skipper, Michael Evans, who is also a Canadian Naval Captain. The Military World Games will be an excellent opportunity to see how athletes perform going into the Brazil Olympics. Rubadeau coached the Canadian team at the 5th Military World Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 2011, and the 4th Military World Games in Mumbai, India in 2007. Rubadeau spent four years training the team to compete in Mumbai, with results at World Championships becoming increasingly more impressive. A month before the event, the skipper of the team was deployed to Afghanistan for six months. That left two weeks to train a new team member, with predictable results. With just weeks before a departure for South Korea, the Canadian team is looking to shake-up the many Olympic teams that will be vying for the podium. KELOWNA

The Liberal Party candidate for the Central Okanagan-Similkameen -Nicola riding believes reconciliation for Canada’s indigenous population should be a priority for the next federal government. Karley Scott is Metis herself, and she said words are not enough for an apology towards Canada’s First Nations people. Scott was referencing Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s official apology that he issued in 2008 where she noted he made strong statements, but hasn’t fulfilled the expectation that they would be followed up. “Yet today, what do we see? We see 1,200 missing and murdered indigenous women and girls across this country and we see a prime minister who in an interview said that the issue isn’t really on his radar,” Scott said. “It’s speaking out of both sides of your mouth, quite frankly, and you’re not following up an historic apology that was so impactful and meant so much to our communities. “It’s not being followed up with action.”
Karley Scott
If the Liberals form government after the election, Scott stated they will launch an immediate inquiry into the missing and murdered indigenous women. She noted the gap between indigenous and non-indigenous people in Canada is deplorable, and Canada needs to be working to bridge that gap. “I think exactly why I should be running for Parliament is because I am Metis,” she explained. “As a Metis person, I’m inherently of both worlds. I’m indigenous and not indigenous, just by virtue of being Metis, that’s the definition of what it is. “I strongly, strongly believe that you do not have people around a table making decisions without having indigenous people at that table.” Scott noted one aspect that is often overlooked by Canadians is how diverse Canada’s indigenous population is.
Zokol Dental Centre
She explained they are not all the same, but there are many experiences from the many First Nations groups that make them all different. Having indigenous voices involved in Canadian policy would not only help make that clearer, but it would also help make people aware of the positive and powerful ways First Nations heritage and culture is being brought to the forefront in
Canada. “(Reconciliation) is a priority of mine, it’s a priority of the Liberal Party of Canada’s, and it needs to be a priority for all Canadians. “When indigenous people thrive, we all thrive. Our economy, our well being is directly linked between indigenous and nonindigenous people. “We can’t treat these as separate issues any longer, you need to do better and we need to do better now.”

Waiting for a signal light to flash, a speaker to bark out orders, a buzzer to blare, or simply the phone to ring. But few, short of paramedics, fire, police, 6:12 PM the military and a few
select others, involve risking their life to save others. It is literally the stuff heroes are made out of. Very early Sunday morning Tez and I met an entire front yard full of heroes. Actually thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a tad of an exaggeration. It was not a yard fullâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;it was a fire truck full, and with the exception of a couple of them they spent most the time on the side of the road battling a mini inferno. And while they did not need to run into any burning buildings, or rescue my wife (despite her fantasy hopes), or rescue our petsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;if not for their speedy response and quick actions on the scene things could have been much uglier. Tez and I crashed around midnight after a fun afternoon taking in the Peachland Fall Fair and a few hours working
in the yard. At 4 a.m., the two of us awoke bolt upright to an explosion right outside our house. At first my brain did not comprehend what the huge blaze of orange and yellow actually was just outside the front gardenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s white picket fence. It was a fireball but from what? Then I saw the outline of a car and realized it was our tenantsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; vehicle. While I called 911 Tez ran downstairs to wake our tenants. With that completed, she set about grabbing our cat cages and grabbing our ID while I headed outside to assess the actual state of the increasing inferno. A second explosion from the car rattled my senses as I entered the front yard. Whether it was simply a case of still trying to mentally overcome bursting out of bed from a dead sleep or simply an
initial state of shock, I was still bewildered by what the precise cause of the chaos and mayhem was. My brain quickly assumed another vehicle had struck the parked car causing the explosion, but after adjusting my eyes to the nearly blinding orange ball my brain sorted out that no other vehicle was involved. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when the rapidly escalating potential horror of the situation hit me. I watched as the edge of the hedge by the road burst into flames. That hedge runs half the length of my yard, including close to the house, before being replaced by five large trees interspersed along the wooden fence into the back yard. Things were looking bright but not good. My mind raced as to where the important things were located in the house, but that thought

was immediately replaced with the realization that I was not going to get to them regardless of where they were since running anywhere with full blown emphysema is not an option. My priority concerns were getting Tez and the pets out first and then worry about the other â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;stuff.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; So as I turned to head into the house and tell Teresa we had run out of time, the fire truck arrived. I remember thinking, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thank God, the cavalry has arrived.â&#x20AC;? During many years of actual â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;on the beatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; journalism work, I recall a number of emergency situations when I arrived at a scenario ahead of any response vehicles. The angst of waiting for the life saving help to arrive always seemed agonizing and frustrating, however, those moments paled to my trepidation when the blaze was threatening my own home. The relief at seeing those men rush towards my house with fire hoses in hand is almost impossible to fully convey. While one crew battled with the burning car other fireman set about dousing the burning hedge, ending the flamesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ravenous attempt at engulfing my home. I have no doubts that if the blaze had been left unattended for another minute or perhaps even less, Tez and I could easily have lost our house. If the fire had actually reached our home it also would have undoubtedly ignited the neighbours. There is little doubt the blaze was the result of arson. Clearly they did not care that two houses and several lives were also placed in direct danger. While the ultimate destruction from the fire could have been much worse, what was lost was two cars to heat damage, some of the hedge, one entire raised garden box (and crops ready to harvest) and three yard compost bins melted into the road. Tez and I are blessed to still have a home filled with romping kittens and our humble belongings. We have much to be thankful for. I have no question that without the quick response of the firemen and the RCMP we would not be feeling so fortunate today. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find enough superlatives of praise to express my full gratitude.

Conservatives called ‘hostile’ to First Nation rights, interests Kathy Michaels kmichaels@kelownacapnews.com
“Anybody but Harper.” Grand Chief Phillip Stewart didn’t mince words when it came to the message he has for Okanagan voters. “Clearly, after nine and a half years of fighting, the Harper government has demonstrated that the Conservative Party of government is very hostile and adversarial to First Nation rights and interests,” he said, Thursday. “Right from the time they took power, they completely trashed the Kelowna Accord, which presented $5.2 billion in funding for desperately needed new health, education, housing and infrastructure.” The Harper government, he said, has pursued a unilateral legislative agenda that has not served the interest of aboriginal people in this country. “They have been very consistent in their campaign against the
Phillip Stewart
interests of aboriginal people,” he said, pointing out that they are the only party that absolutely refused to consider a federal inquiry into missing and murdered aboriginal women. Stewart also takes issue with the Harper government’s misuse of the term ‘surplus.’ “This so-called surplus was achieved by defunding and underfunding programs to aboriginals and veterans, and the most marginalized groups in Canada,” he said. Phillip’s view on the government is clear, but while he encourages aboriginal people to vote for anybody other than Harper, he stops himself
short at offering his personal pick for prime minister. “I guess in many ways, my wife and I honour the memories of aboriginal veterans that fought for the democratic rights for our people,” he said, explaining that aboriginal people in B.C. didn’t get the vote until 1949 and in Canada until 1960. “That was a hard struggle, so I vote in every election. I urge all people to go out and express themselves at the ballot box.” A rise in First Nation voter turnout is something that he expects to see happen, given recent grassroots efforts for political change. The momentum from Idle No More, a 2012 grassroots mobilization of aboriginal and non aboriginal Canadians against Harper, is still noticeable, he said. “It was inclusive and it brought Canadians together,” he said, saying he believed that energy would continue in years
to come. It’s an exciting time, for the veteran politician, who’s been fighting for
aboriginal rights for over four decades. “It was exciting because it brought so
many different diverse groups together, native and non native alike, for a common purpose—
to speak out against the Harper government,” he said. @KelownaNewsKat

Shannon Lake park upgrade underway This week, construction equipment and crews began rolling into a section of Shannon Lake Regional Park. Until the end of October, those crews will be busy building some promised improvements to make the park more accessible. The construction requires the closure of the gated parking area off Shannon Lake Road and the trail and washroom facility including the area downhill to the floating fishing dock that was installed earlier this summer on Shannon Lake. During the construction the washrooms will be open, however the fishing dock will not be available for use. For the safety of visitors and workers, please stay out of this closed construction area. Drivers along Shannon Lake Road should also watch for trucks entering or leaving the closed parking area. This work will see the existing gravel trail upgraded and paved and a new paved trail built down to the fishing dock in order to improve access for visitors in wheelchairs. The trail is possible thanks to a $50,000 grant from the federal government’s Enabling Accessibility Fund, which helps thousands of Canadians to eliminate barriers and gain better access to facilities in their communities. The regional district is also contributing funds towards this $73,000 project. During construction, access to the remainder of Shannon Lake Regional Park will be from residential walkways off Karli Court, Ridge Place and from Shannon Ridge Park along Shannon Ridge Drive.

A fundraiser held last Sunday in support of Autism Speaks Canada, sponsored by A Buyer’s Choice Home Inspection franchisees across the Okanagan Valley, helped raise $5,000 for the organization. The event involved a three kilometre walk along Kelowna’s downtown lakefront. “This cause means the world to my family and me, and seeing the support for Autism Speaks Canada from our British Columbia team fills us with pride,” said Bill Redfern, founder of the Buyer’s Choice franchise. “All of our franchisees share our commitment to raising funds for autism research and supporting those living with the disorder, but our B.C region is going above and beyond.” The walk, now held in 100 cities, has raised $9.8 million since its inception in 2007.

Hilton At Resorts World Bimini in August 2015, still under construction but most of the rooms ready and the marina in use.
Bimini: New attractions 80 km from Miami Marjie Lambert contributor
The ship docked at North Bimini in the Bahamas around 10 p.m., the last streaks of colour long gone from the sky, the ocean like a black hole absorbing light from the ship. A shuttle waited to take us to the casino at Resorts World Bimini, but beyond the halo of light around the first cars, the pier was dark too. I followed a line of eager passengers into the casino, where I lost a roll of quarters in a slot machine and downed a fruity rum drink before I took the shuttle back to the ship. It wasn’t until the next day that I got a good look at the water in the sunlight. From the shuttle stop in Alice Town, I walked to the almost deserted beach at the southern tip of North Bimini. Sun reflected off the water, illuminating an impossible array of blues and greens topped by a streak of violet. The water was brilliant and clear, the rippled sand on the ocean floor in sharp focus. Bits of vegetation floated past, outlining the current. Behind me, on the beach on the western side—the island here is not more than a couple
hundred feet across—someone exclaimed over fish they spotted in the crystal water. The Gulf Stream flows past the island, a powerful river, 75 km wide, that carries the warm, nutrient-laden waters that give Bimini outstanding sport-fishing grounds. For years, it was the fishing that drew tourists to Bimini—especially giant blue marlin and bluefin tuna—and it still does, although the big game fish are scarcer now. And during Prohibition, Bimini was a hub for rum-runners. But now there’s more. This little cluster of islands collectively known as Bimini is less developed than Nassau or Grand Bahama and has a population of only about 2,000 people. But it has a new attraction on North Bimini, the most populous of the Bimini islands: a casino, a new hotel, a marina for mega-yachts and a ship that ferries tourists from Miami, all owned by Genting, the Malaysian resort and casino giant. The resort has already made a difference in tourism on the island. From 2007 to 2013, Bimini got between 40,000 and 60,000 visitors a year. In 2014, the first full year that Genting’s casino and ferry were in operation, the number
of visitors jumped to 117,315. Genting bought the former Bimini Bay resort, renamed it Resorts World Bimini and added a casino. The company is also building a hotel, Hilton at Resorts World Bimini, which is partially open and will have 305 rooms when it is completed next spring. After Genting started running the three-hour ferry between Miami and Bimini in mid-2013, the company built a 1,000-foot jetty where the ship docks—over the protests of people worried about its effect on sea life. Free shuttles run all day and much of the night, taking visitors between the ship and the resort and into Alice Town. Although the company experimented with day trips and one-night trips, currently all the cruises are two-nighters. Guests can stay in one of the ship’s 180 staterooms or in Genting’s lodgings on the island—or make their own arrangements. But be warned: Although the Bimini SuperFast is clean and well-maintained, the ship is small and spare, its amenities few, the service friendly but limited. If you’re accustomed to Carnival or Royal Caribbean, that’s not what you get here. The ship is comfortable transportation,
not a floating resort.
RENOVATED FERRY
The Bimini SuperFast, a 13-year-old, 669foot renovated ferry that once worked the waters between Italy and Greece, departs from PortMiami in the early evening. From the aft lounge, I watch the Miami skyline shrink as the sun sets behind it. This is my third trip on the ferry. About 45 minutes into the three-hour trip, the casino opens, a reminder that this whole expedition is about opportunities to gamble, whether on the ship or on shore. Genting hasn’t succeeded in building its bayfront casino and resort in Miami, so it built a smaller one 50 miles away. As the sky darkens, I go to the buffet, which has only a fraction of the enormous variety of choices available at a typical cruise ship buffet. Meals are usually available for windows of two to three hours. There’s also a table-service restaurant, the Ponce de Leon, with additional fees of up to $25 per person. The only food

is still evidence of his presence, although much of it was lost in the 2006 fire that destroyed the Compleat Angler Hotel, where he stayed. The hotel has not been rebuilt, and parts of the stone foundation remain, where a plaque commemorates its history. The shuttle drops us off in front of the Bimini
EXPLORING THE ISLAND
The ship arrives at Bimini on time, and after clearing Bahamian Customs, we disembark about 10:30 p.m. for the short shuttle ride to Resorts World. On the steps of the casino, we’re met by men who want to rent us golf carts, and a few people rent the carts. This late at
the crew’s—it doesn’t happen. Lesson learned: Book the excursion in advance. Since then, Resorts World has expanded the variety of shore excursions to include a glass-bottom boat tour, South Bimini nature tour, Bimini Heritage Trail, seaplane tour, Jet Ski tour, wild dolphin expedition, shark encounter and snorkeling. Equipment such as kayaks, water bikes and paddle boats are also available for rent. I spend the day exploring the island, starting with a shuttle tour of the resort, its beach, two marinas and nearby Fisherman’s Village with a few shops and
restaurants. Then I catch a shuttle ride to Alice Town, Bimini’s biggest town. We go south along Kings Highway, the main street on an island that is only seven miles long and 700 feet wide. We pass Bailey Town, where most of the locals live; batteredlooking homes; a shack selling fresh conch salad; and enormous mounds of discarded conch shells in the shallow water. Ernest Hemingway came here to fish and write in the late 1930s— Bimini is said to have inspired “The Old Man and the Sea” and the first story in “Islands in the Stream.” Three-quarters of a century later, there

outside mealtime is sandwiches and snacks purchased at the bar. The ship has no pool, fitness centre or children’s centre. There are occasional trivia games, line-dancing lessons, karaoke, ping-pong, a spa area with massages and a tour of the bridge. The SuperFast used to have plenty of opportunities for gambling: two casinos, a sports book and private rooms for high-rollers. But Genting didn’t get the kind of action it anticipated, and one of the casinos has been converted into meeting space. The sports book is gone. The remaining casino has slot machines and the usual table games; private rooms are still available for high-limit games, although most high-rollers arrive on a Resorts World seaplane or its private jet. The ship has inside, outside and deluxe staterooms. I have a small inside cabin with two narrow beds and two upper bunks that fold down like they do on a train. The beds are separated by a built-in night table and can’t be pushed together. There is closet space for hanging clothes, but no drawers or shelves for underwear and socks. There is no TV, no bathmat, no washcloths, no facial tissues, no water glass, not even a paper cup.
night? I ask the man who opens the casino door for me. There’s nightlife farther south on the island, he tells me. The table games here can start as low at $15, but most have a minimum of $25. There’s a highroller room, a sports book and more than 100 slot machines. A lot of people from the boat come— some are curious, some want to use the free drink coupon we got when we boarded, some gamble at the slots, but few head for the table games. I had planned to sign up for a kayak excursion on the second day, but through a variety of misinformation and missteps—mine and

Mercedes: Dreams sometimes come true By Keith Morgan FRANKFURT, Germany—International auto shows have always been a veritable playground for the fantasies of car designers. The more outlandish and futuristic the concept on display the more wide-eyed showgoers become as they trudge around. The difference today is that they tend not to be wild dreams but an indication of the shape of things to come within the next couple of years. A prime example in Frankfurt is the Mercedes-Benz “Concept IAA” (Intelligent Aerodynamic Automobile). Says the prestige German brand: “It is two cars in one: An aerodynamics world champion with a Cd value of 0.19 and a four-door coupé embodying irresistible design.” At the touch of a button, or automatically on reaching a speed of 80 km/h, the Mercedes-Benz Concept IAA performs a fascinating transformation in which the captivatingly beautiful four-door coupé turns into an aerodynamics world champion: Eight segments extend at the rear, increasing its length by up to 390 millimetres; front flaps in the front bumper extend by 25 mm to the front and 20 mm to the rear, improving the air flow around the front end and the front wheel arches; the Active Rims alter their cupping from 55 mm to zero; and the louvre in the front bumper moves 60 mm to the rear, improving the underbody air flow.” Hard to get your head around that even when awake!

Some honourable mentions. Finally, Frankfurt offers a look at the long awaited premium compact Infiniti Q30. It’s a brave move into a very competitive segment. BMW chose the show for the world premiere of MINI Clubman—our new Driveway team member Gord Scott is currently driving it in Sweden. More later. Driveway’s Zack Spencer has already driven the new smart fortwo in Oregon and will report soon. We all got a look at the open-top two-seater version last week in Germany. The Jaguar F-PACE performance crossover is coming very soon and will challenge the competition in the now-crowded premium SUV/Crossover market. Check out the VW Golf GTI TDI sport.

Predicting an electrifying future in Frankfurt By Keith Morgan FRANKFURT, Germany— The Frankfurt international auto show covers an area roughly the same size as a small European country. At least my feet figured that to be true after covering most of the premier Euro show’s 23 hectares. By the end of the day, the hybrid powered shuttles that I had pooh-poohed earlier in the day as transport for the lazy looked a mighty attractive method of returning to the main gate. The show is a feast for the automotive senses with every segment represented from tiny micro cars to oversized, grossly modified and, frankly, oddified BMW X5s. Ten years ago, the big Euro shows were just an opportunity to gaze longingly at makes and models we would never get

Sneak peeks of the A4 range are there to see but more about that popular line soon as Driveway is heading to Venice to spend some time at the wheel. VW group stablemate, Porsche is also going electric this year with its fourseat Mission E concept. It also boasts a 500-kilometre range and 600 horsepower performance. Don’t hold

Kia unveils new Sportage at Frankfurt auto show By Jim Robinson FRANKFURT, Germany— Kia revealed the 2016 Sportage compact CUV on the eve of the Frankfurt Motor Show. Prior to the debut, Gregory Guillaume, chief designer of
Kia Sportage instrument panel.
Jim Robinson
Kia’s Design Centre Europe, told me in an interview the fourth-generation Sportage will build on the success of the current model but with improvements in every area with particular attention to build quality and materials. Guillaume said the interior design of the outgoing Sportage was the oldest in Kia’s fleet calling for an increase in the proportion of cloth and leather stitching plus reduced cabin noise. But it biggest change is
2016 Sportage compact CUV. in the instrument panel which was formerly focused around the centre stack with the use of a lot of vertical lines. The 2016 Sportage will have two clear horizontal zones – “display” and “control”. Display includes the instrument cluster and optional new 7.0- or
CONTRIBUTED
8.0-inch Multimedia Display systems in the centre of the dashboard. The lower control zone includes the centre stack which is angled at 18 degress toward the driver. Styling remains centred on the Kia’s signature “Tiger Nose” grille but with the headlights now set higher
and swept back along the outer edges of the hood. Aerodynamic tuning sees drag reduced from 0.35 on the current model to 0.33.
Depending on model and trim level, there will be a choice of 17- 18- or 19-inch wheels. Interior passenger and car-
go volumes are increased due primarily to larger dimensions such as a 30 mm growth in its wheelbase, to 2,670 mm. The whole vehicle is 40 mm longer, at 4,480 mm, with the front overhang expanding to 910 mm (+20 mm) and the rear overhang shrinking slightly to 900 mm (-10 mm). The latest model remains the same height (1,635 mm) and width (1,855 mm) as the outgoing Sportage.
CONTRIBUTED
The rear seats now recline from 23-37 degrees. Cargo volume grows by 128 litres with a dual level cargo floor. Several engines will be available but Canada is expected to continue with a 2.4-litre naturally aspiration inline four-cylinder or a twin scroll turbo 2.0-litre inline four-cylinder. Both engines will have direct fuel injection. Metroland Media.

Five-doors turn heads Toyota The all-new 2016 Prius was unveiled a week before the Frankfurt auto show, in Las Vegas, but rolled out again in Frankfurt. Dr. Johan van Zyl, CEO of Toyota Europe, cited not only their dominance in alternative energy vehicles (3.5 million Priuses sold worldwide), but that hybrid is the preferred technology. “Hybrid is the practical way towards green motoring ñ no need for plugs and no worries about usage or range,” he said to a packed floor. Prius, which has defined the segment since debuting in
drivetrain that employs smaller, lighter components, higher-density batteries, and a petrol engine with increased thermal efficiency for better fuel economy. It is scheduled to arrive early 2016. Also appearing was Toyota’s C-HR concept, a curvaceous compact hybrid crossover with massive wheels, a radically high beltline and narrow-slit side windows. They’ve updated it from three doors to five since the 2014 Paris Motor Show. This signals a shift towards commercialization, with a production-ready model coming to Geneva in March.

There are no plans to bring Levorg to North America, which is too bad as we need more of these wagons. Honda Their most important vehicle ñ the Civic ñ received a complete overhaul for 2016, referred to as the most ambitious in their 43-year history. We’ll have more word on it soon, as the vehicle debuted last week in Los Angeles (not Frankfurt), and will be previewed locally by Canadian journalists. Nonetheless Honda presented something a little different in its Project 2&4 concept, a single-seat, open wheel track car that stemmed from a worldwide design competition. It is powered by a 999 cc V4 engine from the RC213V MotoGP bike, and its body was inspired by the RA272 Formula 1 car from 1965. Project 2&4 weighs only 405 kg, so with 212 hp and 87 lb/ft of torque (and a redline of 14,000 rpm) it should be blazingly fast. And fun, but don’t expect to see it in Honda showrooms anytime soon.

My eyes, however, were on the more potent GS F. Not to be confused with the F Sport package, this high-performance variant gets the same naturally aspirated 5.0-litre V8 found in the RC F. It delivers 467 hp and 389 lb/ft of torque, and will be coming to Canada later this year. Mazda Coupe-like crossovers were popular in Frankfurt, and Mazda introduced its own flavor in the sculpted and steeply raked Koeru design concept. The word Koeru in Japanese means to “exceed,” and in that sense they are hoping to go beyond existing stereotypes in this segment. The concept not only features Mazda’s swoopy Kodo styling, but also adopts the latest Skyactiv technologies. Subaru At the Subaru stand, Levorg ësports tourer’ was revealed to the European market. It is a compact AWD wagon that, in terms of size, slots between Outback and Impreza. The engine is a horizontally opposed, 1.6-litre turbo four cylinder that delivers 170 hp and 184 lb/ft of torque, starting at 1,800 rpm. Transmission is a six-

sad story about their trailer – apparently, they bought it off a private seller before coming on vacation. Just a month later, the electrical system was failing.

I could help them with the perfect RV to
to know? I didn’t think twice as I rolled the odometer just a tad to hide some of that trail dust. In typical curber fashion, I left no traces of what I’d done. To a trusting buyer, I was giving them a great deal! Like making a silk purse from a sow’s ear… As always, lady luck was on my side. I met an older couple in the campground where I was staying. They told me a

The lady even gave me some mighty tasty peaches as a thank-you for saving their vacation. A little spit and polish, some electrical trickery and I had two vehicles to sell. Their old pickup and their trailer! I could ride my scooter home if I needed to.
It’s a good thing they didn’t learn from their first experience! They didn’t think to call a licensed RV dealer for help they could trust. Didn’t ask for a vehicle history report, like CarProof. Didn’t spot the rust. As the young Clint Eastwood would say, I’d be livin’ high and wide at the end of my ride! But first, I needed to go for a swim and then stop at that fine looking winery up the road.
WATCH OUT FOR WALT!
Walt hustles his inventory to another unsuspecting buyer
Licensed Dealers Beat Curbers by a Mile Deciding between buying privately or from a licensed dealer? Buying from a private seller might have one perceived benefit – lower price. But, even that can disappear when looking at the risks, especially if the private seller is actually a curber – an unlicensed dealer intentionally breaking all the rules. Unlike private sellers, licensed dealers must be transparent in their selling practices. This means they must sell vehicles in a clear and open manner while standing behind any representations they make. Dealers can’t withhold information that would cause errors in judgment about whether or not to buy the vehicle. Licenced dealers must also follow strict selling standards. Only licensed salespeople who pass a background check and a certification course are allowed to sell vehicles. Dealers must declare prior out-of-province registrations and vehicle uses (if it was a lease, rental, taxi
or emergency vehicle). Prior damage, above certain limits, must also be disclosed before purchase. And, licensed dealers are obligated to sell vehicles that meet all safety requirements and are free of unpaid liens. As part of being licensed, dealers contribute to a customer compensation fund that regularly settles eligible claims around the province. Dealers also offer extra services and savings such as financing and warranty options. And, there’s a sales tax advantage when trading-in a vehicle at a dealer. Licensed dealers make an investment in their staff, operations, reputation and their community. Curbers escape doing any of the above. And, the Vehicle Sales Authority can assist only with purchases from licensed dealers. If something goes wrong with a private sale, you’re on your own. Learn more at the vehiclesalesauthority.com.
CURBERS SELL VEHICLES THAT MAY BE UNSAFE OR STOLEN! Curbers are individuals and businesses selling vehicles for profit without a licence Curbers may get junk cars and sell them from parking lots while posing as private sellers. They advertise through local newspapers and online ads. They may not disclose the vehicle history to the buyer, hiding serious accident
damage or even a rolled back odometer. Licensed dealers are required by law to sell safe, lien-free vehicles and disclose vehicle histories. If you buy from Walt, you have none of the protections of buying from a licensed dealer.
At a minimum, get a CarProof Vehicle History Report before you buy Find a licensed dealer or report a curber at

Culture ___________________________________________________________________ ENTERTAINMENT: WHAT’S ON
Alternator gallery hosts social drawing party
Inspired by the works of artist Ann Nicholson, the next Draw By Night event theme celebrates our own inner warriors— the voices in our heads that guide us through good and bad times. As part of Kelowna’s Culture Days, DBNers will get together and create character Artist Trading Cards to share and trade. To participate is free. Come armed with your favourite drawing utensil or you can use Alternator Gallery materials. Draw By Night is an ongoing bi-monthly public event held periodically at the Alternator gallery and the Kelowna Museums that promotes creativity, imagination and collaboration through the process of drawing. It is a social drawing party which asks its participants to collectively and freely draw in a social setting on large rolls of paper. The aim is to engage creative people from various disciplines throughout the community including students, industry professionals, visual artists, hobbyists and the general public and get them all drawing. CONCERT Stephanie Macpherson Friday, Oct. 2 Fernando’s Pub 279 Bernard Ave. Kelowna. Doc Willoughby’s 353 Bernard Ave.
Poet Shane Koyczan (centre) will perform Oct. 22 at Kelowna Community Theatre. Following the release of her debut album, Victoria native Stephanie Macpherson has followed that up with Stones, a collection of songs that delves deep into the complexities of personal relationships. Weaving back and forth between the complexities of overcoming fear, dealing with loss and gaining selfknowledge, the 11-track album creates relatable moments over and over again, allowing listeners to see themselves in the challenges Macpherson faced herself while crafting this album. BOOK LAUNCH Kah-Lan, The Adventurous Sea Otter by Karen Autio Saturday, Oct. 3 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. Kelowna Library 1380 Ellis St. Just like the determined sea otter in her new illustrated novel for young readers, Karen Autio had to be persistent in her 30year quest to see KahLan, The Adventurous Sea Otter from concept to publication. The short novel (illustrated by Sheena Lott) may be a west coast adventure tale revolving around sea otters, but there is nothing cute and cuddly in this story.
The Kelowna-based Autio is known for her meticulous research as the main characters in her latest novel are realistic sea otters who must engage their wits and strength in the face of danger in order to survive and return to their home bay. Blending natural history with storytelling, KahLan appeals to children curious about sea otters and the challenges they face. Survival is tough in the Pacific Ocean and human encroachment is a constant threat to their fragile marine environment. “My passion is writing and the ideas keep bubbling up,” Auto says. “The energizing joy and satisfaction derived from creative expression and having readers connect with my stories keeps me writing. And, I love researching! As I research, story ideas grow, and I’m fascinated by the jigsaw puzzle of transforming facts into a compelling story.” Autio’s interest in sea otters dates back to 1984 when she first visited the Vancouver Aquarium. “I fell in love with the sea otters,” she confesses. She became a frequent aquarium visitor, always heading straight for the sea otters.
“At first, I was attracted to the cute and cuddly aspects of these mammals, but the more I researched them, the more respect and amazement I had for sea otters and their ability to survive living in the cold Pacific Ocean.” Observation and research led to an early draft of the story that would eventually find publication three decades later. CONCERT Shane Koyczan Thursday, Oct. 22 Kelowna Community Theatre 1375 Water St. Silence Is A Song I Know All The Words To is another chapter in the continuing story of artist, poet and author Shane Koyczan. After a successful cross-
Canada tour this year, Koyczan will be making a stop in Kelowna as part of a followup swing around B.C. this fall. Koyczan was also on tour as part of the David Suzuki Foundation’s Blue Dot Tour, sharing the stage with the likes of David Suzuki, Neil Young, Feist, Margaret Atwood, Raine Maida, Chantal Kreviazuk, Joel Plaskett, Robert Bateman and Stephen Lewis. He wrote the poem “Shoulders” specifically for that tour. “When I first heard Shane perform ‘Shoulders’ it brought tears to my eyes,” said David Suzuki. “Poetry, like music, connects people in a powerful way and Shane lifted entire audiences to their feet with his incredible words.” In the fall of 2014,
Koyczan’s much lauded novel Stickboy was the subject of both an art exhibit and an opera with the poet himself playing the role of Librettist. The world premiere of the opera Stickboy was met with critical acclaim during its one month run at the Vancouver Playhouse. “Stickboy was a milestone for Vancouver Opera and a huge achievement for Shane, composer Neil Weisensel, and the entire creative team,” said James Wright, general director, Vancouver Opera. “Eight thousand people saw the show and leapt to their feet to applaud the artistry. We continue to hear from audience members who were as deeply moved by the production as we were.” ***
THEATRE Blowin’ In The Wind Until Oct. 10 Black Box Theatre 1375 Water St. Kelowna
The fall show at the Black Box Theatre this year will be a musical revue featuring the folk music of the 1960s. The music being featured will be from the likes of Gordon Lightfoot, Joni Mitchell, Ian and Sylvia, Leonard Cohen, Pete Seeger, The Weavers, The Kingston Trio, The Chad Mitchell Trio, Judy Collins, Bob Dylan, Peter Paul & Mary, Tom Paxton, The Brothers Four and Simon & Garfunkel. The show will also pay tribute to the comedy of the era that spawned the first comedy albums.

CONCERT Tribute to Roy Orbison Friday, Oct. 2 7:30 p.m. Kelowna Community Theatre 1375 Water St. Roy Orbison was unmistakable with his trademark sunglasses, his distinctive, powerful voice, his complex compositions and the dark emotional ballads we all love. From 1960 to ’64, Orbison landed 22 songs on the Billboard Top 40, including “Only The Lonely,” “Crying,” and “Oh, Pretty Woman.” His impassioned voice, bridging the gap between baritone and tenor, coupled with his signature arrangements ensured the charting of the hits “Dream Baby,” “Ooby Dooby,” “Blue Angel,” “Blue Bayou,” “You Got It” and “In Dreams.” Mike Demers leads this group of musical journeymen in their mutual and deep appreciation of the timeless music of the

‘Caruso of Rock.’ Tickets on sale at the Prospera Place Box Office, 1223 Water St.; charge by phone at 250762-5050; online at selectyourtickets.com CONCERT Jim Byrnes Saturday, Oct. 3 7:30 p.m. Creekside Theatre 10241 Bottom Wood Lake Road Lake Country Jim Byrnes was born in blues music country —St. Louis, Missouri . By age 13, Byrnes was singing and playing blues guitar. His first professional gig was in 1964. Over the years since, he has had the great fortune to appear with a virtual who’s who of the blues— Muddy Waters and John Lee Hooker to Taj Mahal and Robert Cray Byrnes moved to Vancouver in the mid70s after years of drifting, working odd jobs and playing music. In 1981, he put together a band that became a staple of the local music scene. In 1986 alone, the Jim Byrnes Band played 300 gigs. He also gained notoriety as an actor on television after being cast in the Wiseguy and Highlander series, and hosted a national variety show, The Jim Byrnes Show. Byrnes has proven that a serious car accident in 1972 has done anything but hinder him. Despite two swipes with death and some pretty hard knocks, Byrnes has still managed to rack up an enviable string of credits, both on and off-screen. He has produced five albums in six years since he hooked up with Steve Dawson back in 2004. CONCERT Until Red Saturday, Oct. 3 The Streaming Cafe 596 Leon Ave. Kelowna Liam, Dylan and Roman of Until Red have been busy collaborating to write new material for a western Canadian tour as well as an upcoming album. The trio performed more than 100 concerts last year, getting their r start back in 2015 as the rising star award winners of the 2015 Winnipeg Folk Festival. KELOWNA
