Cranbrook Aquatic centre seeks grant for family events T R E V O R C R AW L E Y

The RDEK is pitching in some funding to provide special events for the Cranbrook Aquatic Centre aimed at boosting family attendance from local and regional residents. The fee structure for the events at the Aquatic Centre and Western Financial Place were formerly under a two-tier system was abolished in March by Cranbrook city council. Staff with the aquatic centre are now hoping to raise awareness about the new single-fee system by offering four free public swimming events through a $6490.40 grant. The proposal would be four free public swimming events, one free swim-in movie night, one two-day

free aquatic fitness event, and one New Year’s event with organized games and activities. RDEK board chair Rob Gay says he’s been hearing a lot of positive feedback from Area C residents about the new fee structure. “I’m hearing two things from Area C residents. One, that [they] didn’t know that it’s now a single fee, so the awareness isn’t out there and the city made the decision in March,” Gay said. “I did speak with staff at the pool when I was putting this proposal together and they say they’re seeing an increase in user-ship, so that’s good. That’s what we really need.”

A trial is getting underway in Cranbrook Supreme Court this week. A man is facing a charge of careless use or storage of a firearm stemming from a police incident two years ago in Cranbrook. Jury selection began on Monday morning, before crown and defence counsels

presented arguments on the admissibility of evidence afterwards in front of Justice Trevor Armstrong. The man was charged in April, 2013, following a police incident in October, 2012 where a firearm was discharged near the outskirts of city limits. The trial will resume on Tuesday.

A brief history of health spending

T

he federal budget document began with an ominous warning about deep cuts. Social programs, justice and corrections would be spared as much as possible, but no department would escape the knife. The stark truth was revealed in a table of figures. Health care spending, the core of the Canadian state, was cut by 3.8 per cent in just the first year of the fiscal plan, as population and need continued to grow. No, this is not from the Stephen Harper budget of April 2015, or any other in the last decade. It’s from the Jean Chretien budget of 1995, more than 20 years ago. That’s the last time anyone actually cut health care spending. But wait, you may say. Didn’t I hear that Harper has slashed health care spending by $30 billion? Yes, you probably did hear the biggest, most brazen lie of this election campaign, either from the government unions that advertised it or the politicians who parrot it. If health care really is everyone’s high-priority issue, as pollsters have long assured us, voters should at least know the facts. After cutting provincial health and social services transfers for years to end the string of operating deficits that began under Pierre Trudeau and continued

under Brian Mulroney, Liberal finance minister Paul Martin rose briefly to the top job. In 2004, Martin staged meetings with premiers, emerging with what was billed as “a fix for a generation,” with federal health transfers to rise six per cent each year into the future. The future for Martin’s government lasted only two years, as his minority was replaced with one led by BC VIEWS Harper. These galloping increases Tom continued until the ConserFletcher vative majority of 2011, after which then-finance minister Jim Flaherty came to Victoria to inform provincial finance ministers of the new plan. (I was there, and the joke was that this was as far from Ottawa as Flaherty could get without leaving Canada.) The six-per-cent increases, by that time triple inflation, would continue for another five years. Starting in 2017-18, increases would be tied to economic growth, with a minimum hike of three per cent, still well ahead of today’s inflation. That remains the Conservative plan today. All provinces east of Saskatchewan pitched a fit. Manitoba’s NDP finance minister termed it “un-Canadian.” Lefties immediately called it a cut, to which Flaherty replied that transfers to provinces would rise from $30 billion to $38 billion in 2018-

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

19, and continue to grow after that. In B.C., then-finance minister Kevin Falcon praised the long-term approach, acknowledging that health spending was ballooning to half of the provincial budget and had to be brought under control as baby boomers start to retire. B.C. has largely accomplished that, with spending increases below three per cent and health care outcomes that continue to lead the country. As the current election campaign turns into the home stretch, Statistics Canada has announced a milestone. For the first time in history, the number of seniors exceeds number of children. This demographic shift is inexorable, predictable and must be addressed by whoever wins the Oct. 19 federal election. NDP leader Thomas Mulcair is on record that he will scrap the Conservative formula for growth-based increases that he pretends are cuts, returning to six per cent every year while balancing the budget. Little detail has been provided on how this would be done. Liberal leader Justin Trudeau announced in Surrey last week that he will ante up an extra $3 billion over four years for health care, and “sit down with the provinces immediately” to renegotiate, a rerun of Paul Martin’s political theatre. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Ice deal Jon Martin to Broncos

Veteran forward caught in overage crunch sent east to Swift Current for fourth-round pick Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor

Kootenay Ice general manager Jeff Chynoweth is one step closer to solving his overage situation after trading right wing Jon Martin to the Swift Current Broncos. Martin, a native of Winnipeg, was dealt to the Broncos in exchange for a fourth-round selection in the 2016 WHL Bantam Draft on Sunday night. “I don’t think it gets anymore difficult than it was [Sunday] night,” Chynoweth said Monday. “To look in Jon’s eyes -- and see the emotion, the passion and the heartbreak -- to let him know we had moved him, it broke my heart as it always does. “There’s nothing more difficult. What Jon gave us for the last four years, you just can’t put into words. You win championships with players like Jon Martin.” In four games this season, Martin was off to a strong start, registering three goals and an assist. He joins a Broncos club that sits fifth in the tough East Division, having started

the season 1-2-1-0. The 6-foot-2, 218pound winger came to the Ice via the 2010 WHL Bantam Draft -- a seventh-round selection (135th overall). In 250 career games with the Ice, Martin tallied 35 goals and 72 points, along with 346 penalty minutes. With Martin now out of the picture, the Ice retain five overage players -- goaltender Wyatt Hoflin, defencemen Tyler King (long-term injury) and Tanner Lishchynsky, right wing Jaedon Descheneau and centre Luke Philp. With King, he isn’t expected to be healthy and

ready to play until deep into the campaign, at which point Chynoweth will have two weeks from the time of King’s return to make a decision -once again -- regarding his overage situation. Until that time, King is exempt from the overage limit, meaning the Ice could technically carry four overage players until he is healthy. “It could be, at the earliest, the end of November. It could be after Christmas,” Chynoweth said regarding King’s status. “We’ll see how everything goes. He goes to get a check-up on his knee [Monday] with the surgeon in Saskatoon.”

Forward Jon Martin (#11) was traded to the Swift Current Broncos on Sunday night in exchange for a fourth-round pick in the 2016 WHL Bantam Draft. Lishchynsky has been nursing a lower-body injury and is travelling with the Ice as they head to Saskatchewan this week. The hope is he will be ready to play later in the road trip, perhaps Friday in Brandon or Saturday in Moose Jaw. WHL clubs are permitted to carry as many overage players as they like, but may only dress three on any given night, up until Oct. 16, at which point teams can only retain three over-

age players. That leaves less than two weeks for Chynoweth to determine how his 20-yearold situation will shake out. The Ice previously dealt 20-year-old defenceman Tanner Faith to the Moose Jaw Warriors in exchange for a conditional fifth-round pick back on Sept. 23. The Ice hit the road for four games this week, beginning Tuesday against the Prince Albert Raiders.

There’s no place like home for the Kimberley Dynamiters. Following six consecutive games away from the Kimberley Civic Centre, the defending KIJHL champions returned home to find it just as friendly as when they left, skating to a pair of victories this past weekend. Friday night, the Nitros scored an explosive victory, defeating the Revelstoke Grizzlies 4-3 in overtime. Saturday, a 5-2 triumph over the Columbia Valley Rockies vaulted the Dynamiters to the top of the KIJHL standings. “Happy with the second win, the first win not so much,” said Jerry Bancks, head coach of the Kimberley Dynamit-

ers Monday afternoon. “[Saturday] we played more as a team and supported each other better…Everybody seemed to buy in and it was much better.” Friday night saw the Dynamiters and Grizzlies go back and forth over three periods in a game that featured no shortage of fireworks. During the third period of play, a heavy hit from burly Dynamiters blueliner George Bertoia sparked what can only be classified as a good, ole-fashioned line brawl. The two teams combined for 88 penalty minutes at that one stoppage in play, as Bertoia and Austyn Moser were thrown from the game, along with Grizzlies defenceman Nicholas Higgs and forward Steven Flust.

Fire Prevention Week

“Hear the Beep Where You Sleep. Every Bedroom Needs a Working Smoke Alarm.” Cranbrook Fire & Emergency Services Reminds City Residents. FOR THE TOWNSMAN

Cranbrook, BC (October 1, 2015) -- Location matters when it comes to your smoke alarm. That’s the message behind this year’s Fire Prevention Week campaign, “Hear the Beep Where You Sleep. Every Bedroom Needs a Working Smoke Alarm!” Fire Prevention Week is October 4-10 and Cranbrook Fire & Emergency Services will be reminding local residents about the importance of having working smoke alarms in every bedroom, outside each sleeping area, and on every level of the home, including the basement. “In a fire, seconds count,” said Chief Wayne Price, Director of Cranbrook Fire & Emergency Services. “Half of home fire deaths result from fires reported at night between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m. when most people are asleep. Home smoke alarms

can alert people to a fire before it spreads, giving everyone enough time to get out.”

• Replace all smoke alarms when they are 10 years old or sooner if they don’t respond properly.

According to the latest research, working smoke alarms cut the chance of dying in a fire in half. Meanwhile, three out of five fire deaths resulted from fires in homes with no smoke alarms or no working smoke alarms.

• Make sure everyone in the home knows the sound of the smoke alarm and understands what to do when they hear it.

This year’s Fire Prevention Week campaign includes the following smoke alarm messages: • Install smoke alarms in every bedroom, outside each separate sleeping area and on every level of the home, including the basement. • Interconnect all smoke alarms throughout the home. This way, when one sounds, they all do. • Test alarms at least monthly by pushing the test button.

• If the smoke alarm sounds, get outside and stay outside. Go to your outside meeting place. • Call the fire department from outside the home. Cranbrook Fire & Emergency Services will be hosting activities for grade 3 students this year to promote “Hear the Beep Where You Sleep. Every Bedroom Needs a Working Smoke Alarm!” Through these educational, family-oriented activities, residents can learn more about the importance of having a working smoke alarm in every bedroom.

Every Second Can Mean The Difference Between Life And Death This ‘Fire Prevention Week’ please take some time to go over your fire escape plan at home with your family, check both your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and make sure your fire extinguisher is in good working order. Fire Safety Is Always In Season. October 4 – 10, 2015

HOROSCOPES by Jacqueline Bigar

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Push away any hassles by maintaining a keen sense of humor and a unique perspective. Your creativity surges, to the extent that your mind keeps spinning off on the other party’s words. Stay as pleasant as possible. Tonight: Spontaneity provides an interesting scenario. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You might need to get some feedback from a child or loved one about a personal decision. Remember to thank this person, but also let him or her know that you have not made a decision yet. One-on-one relating could seem like a hefty task today! Tonight: Home is your castle. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Your words tend to be quick and unexpected. Others often feel as though you just spew out the first thought that comes to mind. Your thought process could be faster than many people’s. Don’t allow pressure to build to the extent that it has recently. Tonight: Speak your

mind. CANCER (June 21-July 22) You could discover that someone else sees a matter in a different light than you do. The issue, though it might not be apparent at first, is about money and/or social status. Try not to judge this person; instead, simply relax and listen to his or her thoughts. Tonight: Order in. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Your personality sometimes works like a steamroller, which allows you to bypass a lot of problems. A loved one might be closed down. Give this person the space he or she needs, without making it a big deal. Remain connected to others’ feelings. Tonight: In the limelight. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Slow down. You might want to reconsider certain conversations. Everyone puts statements into a context that he or she knows -- you included. If you try to gain a new perspective, you could see a totally different meaning to someone’s words. Tonight: Schedule more time for yourself.

Tundra

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Your sense of what could be occurring might be a lot different from reality. Try to erase certain expectations from your mind, and go with the moment -- you will be a lot happier if you do. Eliminate your filtered vision as much as you can. Tonight: Where the crowds are. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Pressure comes from others expecting so much from you. You might want to clue them in to the fact that you are human and can do only so much. Resist taking on as much responsibility as you do. Infuse your life with some fun. Tonight: The party goes on and on. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might want to reconsider your plans. A last-minute invitation could be very exciting and different. Your love of adventure emerges, and demands to be taken into consideration. Opting for self-discipline can work only so long. Tonight: Try to be logical and steady. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Someone could make an enor-

mous effort to reach out to you. You appreciate this person’s gestures, and you will let him or her know. Weigh the pros and cons of becoming more involved with this person. You’ll want to have all the facts before proceeding. Tonight: Visit over dinner. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You can’t hold back any longer. You have a desire to go along with a group of friends. Let them know, and you will be a part of what is going in. A friend might be distant and jealous, and wishing that he or she had done the same. Tonight: Go along with someone else’s plans. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You’ll be overanalyzing a situation and causing yourself a problem. Let go of this issue. Someone you look up to could be in a bad mood. You might not want to get into a tense discussion. A loved one might challenge a wonderful idea. Tonight: Pace yourself.

Rhymes with Orange

By Hillary B. Price

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My wife, “Kate,” and I are in our early 40s and have been married for 15 years. We have two children. Kate has a deeply troubling emotional dependence on her parents that shows no sign of changing. They wanted to come with us on our honeymoon, which I initially thought was a joke. It wasn’t. I flatly refused, and Kate became angry. Early in the marriage, I overlooked a lot of this overcloseness, because I thought she would eventually grow out of it when she became a wife and mother. But it hasn’t happened. Kate calls her parents every day and discusses all of our personal issues with them. She has let me know that they come before the rest of us and always will. We’ve tried counseling several times, but she cannot or will not change and it leaves me frustrated. The only reason I’m still in this marriage is because of my kids. I’m ready to find a girlfriend. What should I do? -- Stuck in San Francisco Dear Stuck: Finding a girlfriend will not ease the problem with your wife, so let’s not do that. When someone marries, the spouse should always come before the parents, even though some parents don’t like that and may, in fact, encourage the grown child to put them first. This is unfair to the child, keeping them infantilized and dependent. Kate wasn’t mature enough to get married, but you expected her to change anyway. The fact that Kate phones her parents daily is not a big deal. But discussing personal marital issues with them allows them to be a bigger part of your marriage than they should be, and Kate refuses to change that. You need to determine which aspects of this are worth being upset about, and which are unimportant to the basic well-being of your children and your marriage. Please get counseling, with or without Kate, so you can work on this. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Need Some Relief,” the couple in their 70s who were tired of hosting all the holiday dinners. When my mother got sick, my sisters chose to host the big twice-a-year family dinners. When Mom recovered, she still didn’t feel up to cooking for an army of children and grandchildren, so we did a potluck-style dinner. The sisters who keep kosher were in charge of cooking the turkey and other major dishes. My brother and I (who don’t keep kosher) brought raw ingredients and cooked at Mom’s. Of course, we all cleaned up after. We estimated the cost of all the ingredients and divided it equally. (Middle children are very stuck on “fair.”) Mom provided the location, plates, cups, etc. Mom said the only downside was that she didn’t have leftovers for the rest of the week. -Huntington, Massachusetts Dear Huntington: Thank you for pointing out how well things can turn out when everyone pitches in and no one expects Mom (or anyone else) to do all the heavy lifting. You found a way to make it work. Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Sympathy & Understanding

It is with great sadness that the family of Iris Wallach announce her passing on Sunday, September 27, 2015. Iris was born August 4, 1930 in Cranbrook. She attended school in Wycliffe and Kimberley, graduating in 1948. Shortly after graduation, she was crowned Snow Fiesta Queen. She married Doug Wallach on August 2, 1952 and they made their home in Marysville where they lived until the tragic passing of Doug in 1976. Iris then moved to the family farm in Wycliffe where they had been building their new home, and this is where she lived out the rest of her life. Iris enjoyed her life on the farm, where she spent her days cross-country skiing, gardening, and bird watching. She was very fond of animals and had many pets. Mom loved having family gatherings on the farm, and especially enjoyed time spent with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was quite talented at knitting, always making sweaters and slippers for anyone who she thought needed them. Mom was also an extremely generous person, always willing to help anyone in need. Predeceased by her husband, Doug, son Jim, her parents Pete and Mary Macri, her brothers Steve, Tony and Joseph and her sisters Doris McLaren, Leenie Hargreaves, and daughter-in-law Jan Wallach. Survived by her sons, Randy (Rochelle), Rick (Rachelle) and daughters Dawn (Al) Marchi and Lorie (Pete) Sorensen. Nine grandchildren - Jaime-Lyn, Michael, Jason, Kristy, Rob, Jennifer, Jonathan, Stephanie and Jake, as well as six great-grandchildren. Mom spent the last days of her life in the Pines where she was well taken care of. She will be greatly missed by her family. A memorial service will be held at the Marysville Community Church on Saturday, October 10, 2015 at 10:30 a.m. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the SPCA.

Following several days of tough negotiations in Atlanta GA., the Cranbrook Chamber of Commerce joins the Canadian Chamber of Commerce in saluting the successful conclusion of the Trans-Pacific Partnership. “This is an exciting moment for Canada,� said the Honourable Perrin Beatty, President and CEO of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce. “I want to thank our negotiators for their hard work in securing an agreement that will help

create jobs, spur innovation and increase consumer choice across Canada, while positioning us at the forefront of global trade developments.� Cranbrook Chamber president Dave Struthers commented this morning “This is an exciting moment for Canada; this is an agreement that will help create jobs, spur innovation and increase consumer choice across Canada, while positioning us at the forefront of global trade developments.� The Cranbrook

Chamber of Commerce applauds the efforts and positive outcome. “Canada’s prosperity is intimately tied to its ability to compete internationally. One out of every three Canadian jobs depends directly or indirectly on trade�, said Chamber Executive Director David D. Hull. “The TPP will give Canada preferential access to an economic zone covering 800 million people and 40% of the global economy. This is a watershed agreement.� Already, TPP countries account for the vast

majority of Canadian exports and cross-border investment. “We’re looking at huge gains for Canadian farmers, food processors, and companies in forestry, mining, aerospace, financial services and information technology, among other industries,� said Beatty. “Of course, trade negotiations are a process of give and take and it will be important for the government to take seriously the concerns of any affected sector, and to partner with them to ensure their competi-

tiveness. The measures announced to compensate the sectors most affected are a good starting point,� concluded Mr. Beatty. It was imperative that Canada participate in this negotiation said Perrin Beatty, “Everyone can agree we can’t let the TPP happen without us. Left out on our own, others would take our place in regional supply chains. And Canada would forfeit a once-ina-lifetime opportunity to shape the rules that will govern trade for the next 10, 20 and 30 years.�

Cranbrook Chamber likes TPP deal

B.C.’s Asia trade will benefit from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, the world’s largest free trade agreement, reached Monday after all-night discussions with 11 Pacific Rim countries, according to business and provincial government officials. Jobs Minister Shirley Bond cautioned that legal work and ratification by the 12 countries involved still remains to be done, but the TPP removes barriers for B.C. producers of seafood, minerals, forest and farm products in countries such as

Japan, Malaysia and Vietnam. “Generally speaking, any time British Columbia can compete on a fair and level playing field, we’re going to do well,� said Bond, citing trade growth in cherries, blueberries and wood products. Much of B.C.’s progress in lumber exports has been in China, which is not part of the TPP talks. B.C. averages $4.8 billion annually in forest products to TPP countries and 1.5 billion worth of pulp and paper, despite duties up to five per cent in Australia and New Zealand, up to 10 per cent in Japan and up to 40 per cent in Malay-

sia. The B.C. Chamber of Commerce says fish and seafood are currently subject to 15 per cent duty in Japan and Malaysia, up to 34 per cent in Vietnam and up to five per cent in New Zealand. Beef, fresh and frozen vegetables, fresh cherries and fresh and frozen blueberries also face tariffs in Asian countries. The tentative deal has emerged as a major issue in the federal election campaign. Prime Minister Stephen Harper outlined a $4 billion “income guarantee program� for Canada’s protected dairy and egg

producers, to compensate farmers for lost income due to new foreign imports for 10 years after the TPP takes effect. NDP leader Thomas Mulcair blasted the agreement as a “sellout� of Canadian auto workers and farmers that will also see drug prices rise in Canada. Mulcair said his party would not be bound by the agreement if it forms the new government on Oct. 19. Liberal leader Justin Trudeau said his party is profree trade, but will study the agreement and “take the responsible time to do what’s right for Canada.�

At the Cranbrook Public Library In ‘The Book of Speculation,’ Erika Swyler tells the story of a curse that has haunted a family of circus performers for generations, and a book that may hold the key to end it. The tower, the hair, and the witch are only half the story in Megan M o r r i s o n ’s ‘Grounded: The Adventures of Rapunzel.’ Preschool Story Time is this Wednesday at 11 am, 1:15 pm, & 6:30 pm, and Toddler Story Time is 10 and 11 am. Both will be all about Food! Tablet training has returned. Anyone interested in learning about basic tablet usage, including internet, email, e-books, and accessing resources and invited to attend any of the upcoming free classes. Sessions begin this Sunday, October 11th from 3 to 4 pm at the Library. To register, please

contact Jason at 250-317-4927. 45 in 45 returns! 45 Books in 45 Minutes is a fun, frenetic event where each reviewer gets exactly 1 minute to review a favorite book. The timing is absolute. If the reviewer tries to talk longer they should expect to get subjected to g o o d - n a t u re d Mike Selby heckling by the audience. By the end of the evening all participants will leave with a list of 45 titles to read during the winter. 45 Books in 45 Minutes takes place on Thursday, October 29th from 6:30 pm in the Manual Training School at the Cranbrook Public Library. Both local authors Keith Powell and Jim Cameron will be discussing their newly published books. Reviewers are needed — so if you are interested in reviewing please fill out the form available at the Library’s front desk. There is a

draw for two gift certificates for those who review. We hope you will be part of this enjoyable, entertaining and exhilarating book reviewing event.
