An investigation that began following whistleblowing allegations by a former staffer of Transportation Minister Todd Stone’s found employees routinely and permanently delete emails contrary to the government’s own laws. That includes Premier Christy Clark’s deputy chief of staff, “who has not personally retained a single email she has ever sent from her government email address,” wrote B.C. freedom of information and privacy commissioner Elizabeth Denham in a report released yesterday. Denham also recommended RCMP investigate since-fired minister assistant George Gretes’ deletion of emails, including his “failure to tell the truth under oath.” The report is an indictment of the B.C. Liberal government’s efforts to hide documents from public requests made under the act. “I am deeply disappointed by the practices our investigation uncovered,” Denham wrote. “I would have expected that staff in minsters’ offices and in the office of the premier would have a better understanding of records management and their obligation to file, retain and provide relevant records when an access request is received.” The investigation began this year when a former assistant to Stone, Tim Duncan, blew the whistle on a request for information regard-

KAMLOOPS

ing government meetings along the Highway of Tears in Northern B.C. Duncan complained his supervisor deleted information to avoid it becoming public. The commissioner found that supervisor, George Gretes “more likely than not” deleted emails on Duncan’s computer. “After initially testifying under oath that he did not engage in the practice of ‘triple deleting’ emails, George Gretes ultimately admitted that he did in fact engage in this practice,” she wrote. “The commissioner has referred this case to the RCMP for investigation, including Gretes’ failure to tell the truth under oath. Gretes was suspended with pay when the allegations came to light. Technology, Innovation and Citizens’ Services Minister Amrik Virk said he has been fired. However, the premier’s deputy of staff — who did not retain a single email, contrary to the law — was not sanctioned, Virk acknowledged. Stone told KTW he expects employees to adhere to not only the letter, but to the spirit of the law. “I expect staff in my office and every person in the ministry to 100 per cent adhere to the act.” He said his deputy minister brought in changes before the report’s release. Those include hiring more staff and further “education and awareness” for staff as to their duties regarding freedom of information requests.

COMMUNITY

Virk told reporters government has asked former freedom of information and privacy head David Loukidelis to assist government to recommend training for staff and to bring in the report recommendations that include accurate records management, including stopping employees from permanently deleting emails. “All government employees have a responsibility to ensure they’re properly responsive to freedom of information requests. This is my expectation and government’s expectation of every public servant,” Virk said. Some recommendations for openness will be sent to a committee of Liberal and NDP members, who will look at practices in other provinces, Virk said. A third breach cited in the report found the chief of staff in the Advanced Education Ministry failed to provide 20 emails from an access request. “The chief of staff’s explanation for why he did not produce these emails demonstrated, at best, a negligent search for responsive records,” Denham wrote. Senior B.C. Liberal government staffers failed to perform their duties, as set out in the act, in all three instances investigated by the commissioner’s office. In the legislature yesterday, NDP Leader John Horgan said the report unveiled “a culture of deception, a culture of deceit and a culture of delete, delete, delete.”

Council Calendar

Topping Trees is a ‘Growing Problem’

October 26 10 am - Coordinated Enforcement Task Force Corporate Boardroom, City Hall

STOP TOPPING TREES

The tree retaliates by producing an unruly crop of weakly-attached watersprouts, prone to disease and breakage.

October 27 9 am - Council Workshop Council Chambers, City Hall

Disease enters via the stub ends, making the tree a short-lived and potentially dangerous one. The tree ends up looking even bulkier than before; it soon needs re-pruning.

October 28 5 pm - Social Planning Council DES Boardroom, 105 Seymour Street November 3 1:30 pm - Regular Council Meeting 7:00 pm - Public Hearing

Stub ends are a sign of poor pruning. This kind of pruning destroys the health & beauty of the tree.

Prune It Right! Here’s how:

Prune It Right! Four easy steps:

November 12 5:30 pm Heritage Commission DES Boardroom, 105 Seymour Street

Make mostly thinning cuts (removal of branches right back to the parent branch or trunk).

1. Remove dead, damaged, or diseased branches.

November 16 4:30 pm Arts Commission Corporate Boardroom, City Hall

Make your cuts just outside the branch collar (a slight thickening where the branch joins its parent branch or trunk). Flush cuts destroy the tree’s defense zone.

November 17 1:30 pm - Regular Council Meeting 7:00 pm - Public Hearing

Remember: remove no more than 20% of the green.

Regular City Council meetings are broadcast on Shaw Cable as follows: Thurs and Sat at 11 am and Sun at 7 pm. Council meetings can also be viewed online at: kamloops.ca/webcast. Meeting schedule is available at kamloops.ca/council.

Avoid creating stub ends.

October 26 11:15 am - Police Committee Corporate Boardroom, City Hall

RESULTS OF TOPPING

2. Remove suckers and watersprouts. 3. Remove badly placed branches: • Crossing or rubbing each other • Growing into centre of tree • Growing into walkways, roadways, or buildings 4. If desired, trim slender branch tips a few inches, to a bud or a parent branch.

Now stand back and admire the great pruning job. Your tree will look airy and graceful, and your pruning job will stay done much longer than stub-end pruning. Trees add beauty and value to your home. Protect your investment with proper pruning.

A Kamloops woman who died following a 2013 house fire was unconscious when she was removed from the burning home by firefighters, a jury has been told. David Gordon is on trial in B.C. Supreme Court on one count of manslaughter and two counts of causing damage by fire or explosion. Cheryl William died as a result of an April 25, 2013, blaze at Gordon’s St. Paul Street home. Taking the stand yesterday, Kamloops Fire Rescue firefighter Eric Nykoluk said he was part of a team of four firefighters who were the first to show up to the fire. He said they arrived within five minutes of the initial call to 911. Nykoluk said he saw flames in a bedroom and described the house as having “zero visibility” due to smoke when he and another firefighter entered to conduct a search. “Basically, what we’re doing is looking for people, for victims,” he said. “It wasn’t long after we entered the building that he had yelled back to me, ‘I found someone.’ “So, I moved up closer to where he was, and I’m feel-

ing around to get a better idea of the person’s position so I can prepare to lift and carry them out.” Crown prosecutor Neil Flanagan asked about William’s state when she was found. “Is she moving at all?” he asked. “No,” Nykoluk replied. “Totally unresponsive, unconscious.” Nykoluk said he grabbed William by the armpits and the other firefighter picked up her feet. “Basically, we just hustled her out of the building as quick as we can and get her to a safe place,” he said. “We put her on the grass.” Nykoluk said another team of firefighters then began per-

forming first aid on William. Court has previously heard William died four days after the fire. Earlier this week, the jury was shown video of Gordon confessing to starting the fire. In the interview with an RCMP detective, Gordon said he was sitting on the floor of his bedroom when he decided to set fire to the corner of a box of clothes. When he went to stomp out the small fire, he said, it spread. Gordon said he notified his roommate and left the home to find a neighbour to call 911. William was a guest of Gordon’s roommate. Court has heard the roommate was unable to awaken her before he fled. The trial is expected to conclude next week.

President’s Lecture Series

TIL DEBT DO US PART?

and

On Nov. 7, Kamloops residents will vote in a referendum to decide the fate of a proposed $91-million performing-arts centre. Today, KTW reporter ANDREA KLASSEN looks at the current city debt and how the arts centre would impact the bottom line

f the city’s proposed performing-arts centre was to be built today, it would bring the city’s total debt to $149.86 million. It’s a big number, agrees Kathy Humphrey. But, the City of Kamloops finance director added, it’s not out of line with what other municipalities across the province carry — nor close to the threshold of debt Kamloops is allowed by law to take on. On Nov. 7, the city is asking residents to vote on the issue of borrowing $49 million to help fund a $91-million arts centre and underground parkade to be built on the former Kamloops Daily News property at Seymour Street and Fourth Avenue. Questions about the city’s debt load have become a common theme on the city’s arts centre information hotline, Humphrey said. All told, the city has just under $101 million in debt, including a few projects already approved by council that won’t officially go on the books until the spring (the $10-million purchase of the Owl Road landfill, for one). Included in the total is money for buildings, roadways and other infrastructure upgrades, as well as various sports projects from the Tournament Capital Centre program. Of that, $43.6 million of the debt is funded through utility fees, with about $47.26 million paid for with tax dollars. The $10-million debt for Owl

This year, the TRUSU Storytellers Gala and TRU President’s Lecture Series come together to focus on the recently released findings of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada (TRC). Our keynote speaker is the Honourable Justice Murray Sinclair, Commissioner of the TRC. His 6 years of experience gathering data and first-hand accounts from the survivors of residential schools will allow us to answer three fundamental questions: What is the truth about what happened in residential schools? Who is responsible for what happened? What can we do as a nation and what can I do as an individual to help move forward reconciliation between nonAboriginal and Aboriginal communities in Canada?

Road will be paid for by using revenue generated by the landfill. When Humphrey took over the finance director post at the city earlier this year, she admits looking at the numbers widened her eyes. “That’s what I thought, too, when I first started — oh my God, we have $100 million in debt,” said Humphrey. “And then I went, oh, our payments are only eight per cent of our revenues.” Under the Community Charter, which sets out rules for municipal governments, the city can’t borrow more cash than it can pay off using 25 per cent of its annual recurring revenues. Those revenues include tax money, but not grants or donations. Kamloops brings in more than $153 million per year and pays $12.9 million on its debts, or 8.4 per cent of its revenues. If the arts centre was to be built today, Humphrey said the percentage would rise to 10.4 per cent, or $15.9 million. Humphrey noted it’s still well under what the province allows. “It’s not necessarily that we can’t afford the performing-arts centre, it’s whether you want to build it,” she said. “This isn’t by any stretch making us insolvent. It’s well within the reigns of the regulations that control cities.” Humphrey said it’s also not far off from debt loads other nearby municipalities have carried. In 2013, Prince George spent

10.9 per cent of its recurring revenues paying off its debt and Kelowna spent 9.5 per cent. On the much lower end of the scale, Victoria spent only 2.8 per cent of its revenues on debt servicing that year. Mayor Peter Milobar makes a similar argument. “We’re well below the provincial average in what our debt servicing is and ours is for predominantly mainstream projects like water and sewer that other communities are trying to do — and they haven’t addressed yet — or voted-on debt through the Tournament Capital Project,” he said. “What we’ve seen over time is none of these projects has bankrupted the city.” Not all of the debt on the books today will be in place in 2020, when the city expects to wrap up construction on the arts centre and begin paying down the $49-million bill with a combination of collected taxes, parking revenue and community works and gas-tax funds. But, Humprey said, other roadworks, repairs and upgrade projects in the intervening years will likely keep many of the totals similar. Larger debts, such as the Kamloops Centre for Water Quality, won’t come off the books until 2025 or the early 2030s. The city’s recurring revenues are also likely to grow in the next four years, Humphrey said, which could bring down the percentage of debt the city carries, even if the arts centre is added to the bill.

This isn’t by any stretch “making us insolvent.”

Sun Rivers is for sale — sort of. The developer behind the resort community adjacent to Kamloops has retained Chicago-based real-estate company JLL to market it to potential investors across Canada and around the world. “Basically, we’re looking for investment and capital,” Leslie Brochu, Sun Rivers’ vice-president of marketing, told KTW. “But, if somebody came to us and was looking at the whole thing, would we think about it? Yeah.” Brochu said putting a price tag on Sun Rivers as a whole would take some time. The community is owned by a group of investors led by Austrian Martin Zumtobel and governed by the Tk’emlups Indian Band. It is located on leasehold land with a lease expiring in 2115. Brochu said Sun Rivers decided to broaden its marketing approach because of changing markets. “What we decided was market conditions are changing and we really needed to expand our reach,” she said. “We went looking for proposals from commercial brokers. It’s a much broader reach, looking for larger developers.

“We’ve always had this approach, but now we’re linking to a company that has broader reach.” Sun Rivers is home to approximately 1,700 people living in 800 homes. Once the development is completely built out, Brochu said, it will house 4,000 people in 1,800 homes, in addition to commercial properties and a hotel. According to Brochu, the Sun Rivers grocery store project is still proceeding. “There’s things they have to do,” she said. “They need to test their concept. I’m hoping to see it within 18 months to two years.” The proposed hotel development is

also still in the planning stages, Brochu said, and the residents’ club — a centre for Sun Rivers residents with a swimming pool and workout facilities — remains part of the plan. Sun Rivers opened its first show home in 1999 and welcomed its first residents in 2000. Brochu said she hopes the reach of JLL will help move Sun Rivers closer to buildout. “We’d like to be done in eight years,” she said. “It’s time to be finished. We believe the market is going to change. “Sun Rivers is established and we want to make sure we’re in a position to take advantage of the timing.”

THE HOT AND NOT OF THE WEEK Kamloops This Week looks at the stories of the week — the good, the bad and all in-between:

HOT: The pressure on the B.C. Liberal government following the release yesterday of Privacy Commissioner Elizabeth Denham’s report on violations of the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act. In a nutshell, staff in two ministries and in the Office of the Premier were found to be deleting or otherwise withholding information requested by the public. Denham’s conclusion: “It is difficult to overstate the seriousness of the problems that my office discovered in the course of this investigation and the resulting effect on the integrity of the access to information process in our province.” Or, as NDP Leader John Horgan so aptly summarized: “There is a culture of deception, of deceit, of delete, delete, delete.” The irony in this entire debacle is that it likely took more effort to find and delete and withhold the information than the energy needed to simply obey the law and tell British Columbians what they are entitled to know.

OUR

VIEW

NOT: Those already criticizing the election results — even before Justin Trudeau and his Liberal MPs are sworn in as government. Yes, Trudeau promised an awful lot during the 78-day election campaign and, yes, it would appear he will be under immense pressure to deliver on even most of them. However, would it not make sense to wait until the prime minister-designate and his yet-to-be cabinet are actually holding the reins of power before barrelling forth with political vitriol? If you voted Liberal, you are likely watching with interest. If you didn’t vote Liberal, relax and let the process do its thing.

Anti-Ajaxers cry wolf on letter

n a week that featured a historic federal election and the creation, finally, of a group opposed (sort of) to the proposed performing-arts centre, leave it to rabid anti-Ajaxers to convince at least one online news blog that a non-story is a story. On my desk is a letter from the B.C. Environmental Assessment Office (BCEAO) to KGHM Ajax, a rather obvious and mundane missive that simply informs the company how it has performed in consulting with the community. (Go online to kamloopsthis week.com/fouldsajax to read the letter.) The letter from the BC EAO to KGHM Ajax advises the mining company that it has thus far satisfied public-consultation activities, as required by law (section 4(2) of the public consultation policy regulation). It also asks KGHM to work with the City of Kamloops as it conducts its own independent review of the company’s application — to make the entire exercise as clear as possible for the public. That’s it. A straightforward letter that is part of the lengthy mineapplication process in B.C. Listening to some Ajax opponents, though, one would think the letter is the smoking gun leading to a corporate bedroom exposing the cohabitation of the BCEAO and KGHM. It is astonishing such hysterics have even drawn traction online. Opponents of the proposed copper and gold mine south of Kamloops have stated many valid reasons for their objection — including dust control, blasting impacts, water usage, diesel pollution and the siting of a huge wet tailings pond above the city. Their concerns and collective

MUSINGS voice are welcome and crucial in the process. However, to raise an eyebrow to the letter from the BCEAO to KGHM only serves to dilute the opponents’ case against the proposed mine. Opponents who see a conspiracy in a letter as transparent as this are the proverbial boy in the meadow crying wolf. There were concerns raised about alleged “advice” in the letter from the EAO to KGHM, when in fact the agency is simply asking KGHM to continue consultations with the public and to release information in easy to understand, plain language so non-experts (such as me) can understand. As for the letter’s reference to the city’s independent review, the EAO is clearly asking KGHM to align consultation activities where possible and to support the city in its endeavour to avoid confusion by the public. It is problematic when politicians and others who defer on taking a stand until they see the data are criticized for not protecting the community. It is problematic when the media are criticized as being pro-Ajax for having the temerity to stand by centuries-old journalistic practice by remaining objective

pending release of the science. Opponents of Ajax decry the lack of a joint panel review — and I join them in their condemnation of that decision. There should be a joint panel review for such a significant project so close to a city the size of Kamloops. But, to slam the BCEAO for how it has handled the Ajax file, and to attack KGHM Ajax for how it has dealt with the public, is ludicrous. In January 2013, Scott Bailey, the BCEAO’s executive project director for the KGHM application, made it clear during a presentation at Thompson Rivers University that the Ajax proposal is alone among all previous environment-assessment proposals in the magnitude of attention given the process. No other project has seen Bailey’s office hire its own socioeconomic consultant; no other project (save for one, possibly, decades ago) has seen the creation of a community advisory group; few other projects have received multiple (rather than one as required) public-consultation periods; few other projects are afforded the maximum 75-day public-commenting period; few if any have been granted an extra 38 days to allow area First Nations bands time to review the application; and few other projects require the proponent to hold communityconsultation meetings. “Yes, we are blazing new trails,” I quoted Bailey as saying back in 2013. “Under certain circumstances, we throw our whole toolbox at a project. This is one of those projects.” Fact-based opposition to a project such as Ajax is important. Blind opposition obscures the view we all need to see. editor@kamloopsthisweek.com Twitter: @ChrisJFoulds

YOUR OPINION LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

IF NOT YET, WILL GROUP PAY MORE LATER? Editor: Re: (‘Not Yet Committee formed as artscentre referendum date approaches,’ Oct. 22): I am in favour of the proposed performingarts centre (PAC) and will be voting yes. While I have no quarrels with the Not Yet group, I do have some issues with the cases they present. Firstly, by calling themselves Not Yet, I infer they do, in principle, agree with the desire for a PAC. So, while they don’t agree with the city borrowing $49 million now, does that mean they are OK with it costing more later? Also, with the city only borrowing half the total amount of $91 million, the other half to be funded by government grants and naming rights may be lost. Interest rates are at rock bottom, so borrowing money now would make sense in a low-interest environment. Secondly, the Not Yet group mentions the PAC will be competing against Cascade Casino’s planned smaller outdoor amphithe-

atre. For her credit, Not Yet spokeswoman Nelly Dever does admit the casino amphitheatre’s stage can’t be used for plays, graduations, theatre, etc., but she seems to think the PAC and amphitheatre will have to compete for big-name acts. I don’t see this happening as big-ticket bands and events don’t play casinos as far as I’ve seen. Let’s be honest — it’s typically tribute bands and people who are otherwise washed up who are the casino’s acts. Alan Doyle of Great Big Sea recently mentioned his support for the proposed PAC, citing the economic benefits to the city. Something tells me he would choose a PAC or stadium venue over a casino. Aerosmith was recently in Kelowna and they didn’t play the Lake City Casino. In fact, both Kelowna and Vernon have PACs and casinos and those cities don’t seem to have issues

attracting acts to either PAC venue. While Dever does make good points that perhaps some aspects of the design should have more discussion, this can happen after the referendum. The design is not yet set in stone. All the referendum would do is allow us to borrow the money when the design is complete. It doesn’t mean ground will be broken the day after the Nov. 7 vote. If the Not Yet side is successful, I hope it will support a potentially higher price tag and potentially higher rate of borrowing. This project has been shown to be economically viable and even artists of well-know bands are supporting it. The Tournament Capital Centre has surpassed expectations and I have no doubt the PAC will as well. Alex Summers Kamloops

WE MUST SERIOUSLY RECONSIDER ARTS-CENTRE PLAN Editor: The old mantra goes that location is everything for a business. So, why is the only possible site for the proposed performing-arts centre (PAC) downtown? An overture in 2014, reliably said to have been made by Thompson Rivers University, might have offered lower capital costs, readily available parking and an attractive land deal. Sure, the idea was tentative, but was apparently roundly stomped on by one or two members of the city-sponsored PAC committee who said something like, “No way, it goes downtown!”

Now, given how the costs have ballooned, the taxpayers might well say, “Hold on a minute here. Let’s begin talking about this.” One has to speculate why events unfolded the way they did. It matters little to the visiting concertgoer and tourist — who contribute most heavily to the PAC economic impact — where the facility is located. So, my conclusion has to be the project goes downtown to ensure the profitability of nearby business and property interests and to prop up dated city hall thinking. Sure, a vital downtown is important, but that is only a part of

a lively city. I seriously doubt our downtown’s vitality depends on a giant, monolithic bulk of a building that will only add to downtown congestion and will be vacant during much of the day. Well, available for parking, yes, but at one heck of a cost. Consider the Bilbao effect, the foremost example of civic transformation through arts infrastructure. The museum was built on industrial wasteland. If the PAC was to be built near TRU — and it is not too late to consider this— they would still come, the taxpayer could save mil-

lions, we would have a better site to showcase a striking building and we would gain a powerful synergy with university programs. Most importantly, we would create a synergy with young people — the future performers and audience. Bluntly, to insist the PAC be built downtown on the old Kamloops Daily News site is constructing a trough to funnel public money towards vested interests. We need to seriously reconsider this project. Frank Dwyer Kamloops

Blazers target Hitmen MARTY HASTINGS

ne lucky Blazers’ fan went home from Sandman Centre with a story to tell. Kamloops forward Collin Shirley scored with 32 seconds left to play in the third period and lifted his team to a 3-2 victory over the Victoria Royals in WHL action at Sandman Centre on Wednesday. The celebration was on. “I seen a guy pointing at me, so I thought I’d give him a point back,” Shirley said of his postgoal antics, which saw him careen toward the glass pointing at the fan before embracing with teammates and skating back to the bench, doing so in swashbuckling fashion. “I had no clue who he was, but he looked pretty excited.” The singled-out spectator had reason to be in a good mood, with his Blazers (3-7) en route to their third victory and first two-game winning streak of the campaign. Kamloops will be looking for its third consecutive W when the Calgary Hitmen visit the Tournament Capital tonight. Game time is 7 p.m. at Sandman Centre. For the first time this season, the Blazers are healthy and head coach Don Hay is able to toy with his full arsenal of players, the most notable addition to the lineup being 18-year-old forward Deven Sideroff, who is back after a month-long fight against mononucleosis. (See story on page A15). “It’s tough coming back after

missing so much hockey and he looked good tonight,” Shirley said of Sideroff on Wednesday night. “He was flying around out there and it helps the team out to have him back.” In addition to benefitting from the return of the lightning-fast right-winger from Summerland, Kamloops has received a shot in the arm from Gage Quinney, 20, who has two goals and five points in three games with his new team. Having those two forwards in the lineup changes the com-

plexion of the Blazers up front and Quinney likes what he sees. “They struggled earlier in the season,” said Quinney, acquired by Blazers’ GM Stu McGregor in a trade with Kelowna last week. “Now, everything is clicking and we’re starting to roll. “Victoria is a division rival and they are at the top of the conference. It shows that we can be a good team when we want to.” Calgary (6-5) has been led offensively by a pair of defence-

men — Travis Sanheim and Jake Bean — and European import forward Radel Fazleev. Sanheim has 17 points, five of them goals, and Bean has seven goals and 14 points. Fazleev, a 19-year-old leftwinger from Kazan, Russia, has five goals and 14 points. The game tonight is the second in a five-game homestand for the Blazers, who are 2-3 this season at Sandman Centre. “It’s good to string together wins,” Shirley said. “We’re looking forward to this Friday.”

MONO LEFT SIDEROFF BEDRIDDEN MARTY HASTINGS

STAFF REPORTER

sports@kamloopsthisweek.com

There is never an opportune moment to contract mononucleosis, but Deven Sideroff’s timing was particularly bad. The 18-year-old Kamloops Blazers’ forward became sick early in September when he arrived at Anaheim Ducks’ rookie camp, which should have been an excellent chance to showcase his skills to the team that drafted him. “I wanted to show Anaheim everything I had at the development camp,” Sideroff told KTW. “Getting hit with mono was pretty devastating to me. “You get so sick you can’t get out of bed. You’re so tired and so weak.” The lighting-quick rightwinger was feeling a touch off at Blazers’ training camp near the end of August, but the illness kicked into full gear in California. Sideroff skated only once with the Ducks before he became bedridden, too sick to fly home and forced to spend a few days in an Anaheim hotel. “It was pretty bad timing,”

Deven Sideroff (right) returned to the Kamloops Blazers’ lineup on Wednesday after a lengthy bout of mononucleosis.

said Sideroff, the Summerland product who registered 17 goals and 42 points in 64 WHL games last season. “It pretty much puts you to bed.” He spent the last month recovering at home, watching the Blazers endure their worst start in franchise history. “Sitting back and watching those games from home and coming and watching them at the rink, it’s hard to watch them lose like that,” said Sideroff, who was drafted by Anaheim in Round 3 of this year’s NHL Draft.

He began skating with the Blazers last week and returned to the lineup on Wednesday, when his teammates skated to a 3-2 victory over the Victoria Royals at Sandman Centre. “I was a little slow to start,” Sideroff told KTW after the game. “I had to get back to the pace and back clicking with everyone, but I felt better as the game went on. “I’m still coming back from the fatigue of the sickness and I know every period I’m going to get better and better.”

PARKADE BREAK AND ENTER

MELISSA COUTO

THE CANADIAN PRESS

TORONTO — Blue Jays ace David Price knew there was a chance he’d be asked to pitch out of the bullpen in Wednesday’s Game 5. Luckily, Marco Estrada made sure it didn’t come to that. Estrada went 7 2/3 stellar innings, giving up one run and three hits while striking out five en route to a 7-1 Blue Jays victory over the Kansas City Royals that cut Toronto’s deficit in the best-of-seven American League Championship Series to 3-2. As the series shifts back to Kansas City for Game 6 tonight, Price will be able to start for the Blue Jays in their fifth elimination game of the post-season. But, he was almost taken out of the equation, when he started warming in the bullpen midway through Wednesday’s victory. “I was warming up to come in,’’ Price said when asked whether he was simply throwing the typical bullpen session that most starters throw between their scheduled starts or if he was gearing up to get into the game. “[I was] getting ready to go get us outs.’’ Had Price come in to pitch Wednesday night, it would have marked his second relief appearance this post-season. His first, a lacklustre performance in Game 4 of the American League Division Series in Texas last week in which he gave up three runs on six hits through three innings, still earned him his first post-season victory since 2008. Price says he doesn’t see much difference in warming up to pitch out of the bullpen or to start, especially when it comes to elimination games. “It’s still pitching. It’s still baseball. It’s still the same thing

Sometime overnight on Tuesday October 20th, suspects entered an apartment parkade on 5th Avenue, once the suspects were in the parkade, they immediately disabled the surveillance camera. These suspects had a plan, they sprayed the surveillance camera with an oily substance then used duct tape to further cover the camera. The suspects were in the area for a long time as a number of storage lockers were broken into, a Homelite chainsaw and one bike was taken. Although late at night there is pedestrian or vehicle traffic in the area at all times day or night. Someone may have seen the suspects with a chainsaw and bike in the early morning walking in the downtown area. If you have any information on this Break and Enter or may have seen someone with the stolen items, please contact Crime Stoppers, you will remain anonymous, only your information will be used never your name.

If you know where any of these people are, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). The tip line pays up to $2,000 for information leading to the arrest of fugitives. Remember, Crime Stoppers just wants your information, not your name. Crime doesn’t pay, but Crime Stoppers does. This program is jointly sponsored by Kamloops Crime Stoppers & Kamloops This Week. People featured are wanted on arrest warrants not vacated as of 3 p.m. on October 21, 2015.

ATTEMPT BREAK AND ENTER David Price gets the start tonight for the Toronto Blue Jays against the hometown Kansas City Royals in Game 6 of the American League Championship Series. Game time is 5:07 p.m.

I’ve done for a long time,’’ he said. “Just go out there, help this team win and go get outs.’’ Price, whose last start came during Game 2 of the ALCS on Saturday in Kansas City — a tough 6-3 loss for the Blue Jays — said his normal bullpen session between outings would have been Monday, though he also added that he rarely throws between starts. Since he didn’t throw earlier in the week, Wednesday night’s bullpen warmup served as a de facto throwing session. “It’s going to work out that way,’’ Price said when asked if that was the plan. Toronto manager John Gibbons said

pre-game Wednesday that the Blue Jays’ prized left-hander could get into the game if Estrada needed help early on. Afterwards Gibbons told the media how close Price was to seeing action. “Well, he wasn’t far off,’’ Gibbons said. “Got my attention, was it the sixth inning when (Estrada) gave up a couple long fly balls. That’s what you look for out of Marco, because he’s a fly ball guy. When they get him, it’s usually home runs. That got my attention a little bit. “Then he bounced back after that with a couple of strong innings to get later into the game. That really worked out perfectly we didn’t need David tonight so he could throw Friday.’’ Price, who’s still looking for his first post-season win as a starter, will get at least one more crack at it this year. And he’s looking forward to that. “I’ll be ready for Game 6,’’ he said.

On Tuesday October 13th a male suspect entered a building in the 700 block of McGill road by following a tenant through the front lobby door. The suspect then tried to gain access to a locked door but failing that, he attempted to cut through some drywall with a knife. There is no doubt this suspect has tried this in another places as

he followed unsuspecting people into a locked building. The suspect is described as male, mid 20’s with short dark hair and at the time was wearing a dark T shirt. If you know this person or may have any information on this attempted break and enter, please contact Crime Stoppers, you will receive a cash reward upon the arrest of the suspect.

WHO OWNS THE DRESS The police are trying to identify the owner of a unique dress that was discarded in a suspicious manner. The dress was located in the driveway of a residence on Schubert Drive on Sunday September 30th. The police would like to know who may own the dress or know how the dress came to be discarded on Schubert Drive. The dress is described as a blue “halter style” with light and dark blue

embroidering on the top and blue and white embroidering on the bottom. This is part of an ongoing investigation that the police would like some questions answered to move the investigation forward. If you have any information on the dress contact the police right away, if you wish to remain anonymous contact Crime Stoppers, you will never have to go to court or give a statement.

A beloved son, brother, uncle, nephew, and friend, Michael Zawaduk passed suddenly on October 20, 2015 in Kamloops. Mike will be remembered fondly for his adventures exploring the world on a bicycle, kayaking oceans and lakes, camping, fishing, and motorcycling throughout North America. He especially loved riding his bicycle in the Rockies. Mike made many connections and companions with like-minded travellers. He was very fond of New Zealand and Australia, and he would spend many Canadian winters down-under when not operating heavy equipment. He will be remembered as free spirit, a gentle, kind, and generous person. Mike shared a very close bond with his brother Mitchell (d: 1993) and sister-in-law Kris Zawaduk (d: 2013). He will be deeply missed by his family: parents Anthony and Verna, sister Cheryl Zawaduk (James Manson), nephew Zakary Zawaduk, niece Michaela Manson, and niece Alysha Zawaduk. There is no service by request.

Her Journey’s Just Begun Don’t think of her as gone away, Her journey’s just begun. Life holds so many facets, This earth is only one. Just think of her as resting, From the sorrows and the tears, In a place of warmth and comfort, Where there are no days and years. Think how she must be wishing, That we could know today, How nothing but our sadness, Can really pass away. And think of her as living, In the hearts of those she touched, For nothing loved is ever lost; And she was loved so much. E. Brenneman

Unveiling of the carnal according to Paul

n the New Testament book of 1 Corinthians, Apostle Paul does a solemn unveiling of the carnal, the deadliest foe of the spiritual. In the opening verses, he asks the question: Has God two standards by which he tests his children? Has he a carnal standard for carnal Christians and a spiritual standard for the spiritual Christians? What did he mean by “the carnal?” Simply speaking, it’s the worldly, as divorced from the spiritual. Satan and the world assail God’s people from the outside, but the carnal is the traitor within. God has only one standard for us all. Paul opens his letter to the Corinthian church, mentioning God’s purpose concerning Christian believers in 1 Cor. 1:9 with regards to their

calling in partnership with Christ. Paul unveils the carnal mind in three known spheres: The intellectual, the ethical and the religious. As to the intellectual, Paul was not opposed to intellectual life and activities. He recognized the Corinthians were a singularly gifted people and their gift sprang from the grace of God. The moment we recognize natural gifts as an expression of the grace of God, two things follow: We do not undervalue the gifts in others and are

not likely to misuse them. We are often inclined to attach fictitious values to natural gifts. We speak and think of them as if they were the be-all and the end-all of fitness for God’s work.

Our very ideals are more intellectual than spiritual. There is another form of carnality in the intellectual sphere: The refusal to believe what reason cannot demonstrate (1 Cor. 15). We cannot compromise the foundation and keep a building standing. This is what is being done in many directions today — the thoughtlessness with which Christian teachers fling their doubts. How often we hear, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do,” or “The end justifies the means.” We can hear the hiss of serpent Satan in these axioms. They are born of the carnal and ought never to be heard on Christian lips.

Another feature of the carnal is its susceptibility to evil environment. The carnal is always the easy prey to the latest error or to the most popular sin. Place a carnal Christian where spiritual influences surround him and where all is in his favour and he stays a decent member on the church roll. But, let him go to lands where there is no Christian influence and he quickly succumbs. As to the sphere of religion, Paul brings it out in chapters one and three and, indirectly in chapter 14, the spirit of partnership. In some cases, it was racial while in others, they were social, doctrinal and

ecclesiastical. In several other cases, it centred on a form of worship of humans. There was party prejudice, party feelings, shibboleths accompanied by bitterness, strife and weakness. There will always be differences in schools of thinking, angles of vision and the type of leaders needed in our churches. But, the carnal overlooks the fact all Christian workers are mutually dependent as one member of the body is upon another. All of them, as a whole, are dependent upon God. All find their unity in God alone. What about the presence of this spirit of partnership among

us today? Do we judge our Christian brother or sister by the badge they wear? If we do, we are carnal. It may be a racial, social or a denominational badge, but it is carnal. And, we are carnal if we wear it. God is shifting his base of missionary operations once more these days from the carnal West to the spiritually despised East. Wherever we meet the carnal and under whatever disguise we meet it, it is the deadly foe of the spiritual in our soul. Let’s not trifle with it, give it quarter, not tolerate it under any pretext and not yield ourselves to it. ryanmitra225@ gmail.com

Ab LAST CHANCE FOR OUR 2015 CIVICS

STAFF REPORTER

andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com

The neurosurgeon behind a proposed medical marijuana grow-op in Dallas said he is no more confident the project will proceed under a Liberal government than it would have under the outgoing Conservatives. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know whether it will ever happen, actually,â&#x20AC;? Dr. Richard Brownlee told KTW on Tuesday night, after he had secured permission from Kamloops city council to rezone a warehouse in the Gateway Industrial Park for the grow-op. The rezoning was approved without comment or debate from council or members of the public in attendance. Only Maxine Charlton of M-3 Management wrote to express concerns about the grow-opâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s effects on her property on Andover Crescent. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our area has been very slow to develop and allowing this ad-hoc purpose will increase the delay,â&#x20AC;? she wrote, adding she expects a â&#x20AC;&#x153;very strong and unpleasant odourâ&#x20AC;? from the warehouse. The new federal Liberal government, which achieved a majority mandate this week, has pledged to legalize marijuana, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not yet clear what that will mean for the existing medical-marijuana system, in which a small group of licensed producers across the country grow the plant, then ship their dried product to consumers by mail. That system was meant to replace home-growing by patients with a pot prescription, though a court challenge has allowed the practice to continue. Brownlee applied for a licence to grow medical marijuana about two years ago, but said he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how far Health Canada is in reviewing his application or whether heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s likely to be approved. Adding the Liberals to the mix doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do much to clear that up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have no idea where itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to go and whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to happen with the Liberal government in place,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If they decide to legalize or decriminalize it or whatever, I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll depend on how they plan on managing the sale of the product, whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commercial or maintained as medical.â&#x20AC;? Brownlee said he would be open to producing both medical and recreational marijuana at the Dallas facility, if thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where the law ends up going. But, his particular interest is medical research using marijuana. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Part of my project is trying to make sure youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a good product and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dispensed properly,â&#x20AC;? he said. Brownlee wants more research on the medical effects of marijuana when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s used in a topical cream, extract or other non-dried form. He would also prefer to see the drug dispensed from pharmacies, rather than mailed to patients, which he said â&#x20AC;&#x153;makes no sense.â&#x20AC;?

Logging contractor ordered to pay $116K to ranch CAM FORTEMS

STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

A B.C. Supreme Court justice has ruled a logging contractor must pay $116,000 to a ranch owned by onetime European business magnate Walter Wolf. The ranch, located immediately north of the Trans-Canada HIghway at Hoffman’s Bluff, east of Kamloops, sued Alkam Holdings Ltd. to recover money owed after the logging con-

tractor cut ranch timber. Wolf came to terms with the contractor in 2013 to log about 10,000 cubic metres of timber at his Wolf Ranch, with the two splitting the proceeds on sale of logs to Interfor. However, the operation ran into a Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Development investigation that found it encroached on Crown land. Both companies were fined by the ministry a total of $13,000.

“The defendant [logging contractor] says it was unable to complete what it considered the most profitable part of the project because the plaintiff misrepresented or failed to properly identify the areas that could be logged,” Justice Nathan Smith wrote. Smith found Alkam Holdings owner Randy Durante was concerned about boundaries of the ranch and asked Wolf to pay for a survey, but the ranch owner said he

could not afford it. “The defendant had a contractual right to insist on a survey regardless of any pleas to poverty Mr. Wolf may have made,” Smith wrote. “Instead, Mr Durante made a conscious choice to proceed with logging in the absence of a survey in circumstances where he knew or ought to have known the risk that created . . .” Evidence was entered into the civil trial that Wolf needed money

for medical treatment in the U.S., which was behind the decision to log a portion of his ranch. Wolf Ranch is comprised of 4,500 fee simple acres along with 1,700 acres of Crown grazing lease. Wolf once owned Lamborghini in the 1970s and operated a Formula One team. His interested have included tobacco firms. He was most recently in the news for a bribery scandal in Europe, allegations which he denies.

Sing when you can’t speak DALE BASS

STAFF REPORTER

dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

orey Payette expects the question — how can you possibly do a musical about the residential-school experience? For the First Nations playwright, Ontario born and with an Oji-Cree heritage, the answer is simple — music is embedded in his culture, in the heritage of all First Nations people. “I tell people that when you cannot speak, you sing,” the Vancouver-based artist said. “Think of the powwow. Music is ingrained in us.” Children of God isn’t ready for a world premiere yet — that is scheduled for next year in Vancouver — but has been slowly reaching that point during the past six years, a time period that has seen Payette take the idea, fine tune it, develop it, write the music, lyrics and words and then workshop it with various theatre companies in Canada. Much of that work has been done at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa, a place where Payette was an artist in residence.

I was never taught about “this when I was in school.”

— COREY PAYETTE

More of the development happens in coming days in Kamloops as Payette and his cast present it at Pavilion Theatre on Saturday, Oct. 24, Monday, Oct. 26 and Wednesday, Oct. 28. Set in the Northern Ontario landscape of his youth, Children of God focuses on a family whose children are sent to residential school. It takes place over two time periods two decades apart and is basically a story of coming to terms with who you are, with a family finally able to confront what has happened to it and come together again. Those roots are buried deep in his own story, Payette said. “I was never taught about this when I was in school,” he said of the residential-school time in Canada’s history. He learned of his family’s history from it, albeit in pieces. Payette said his grandmother used to tell him none of his family had been taken from their families and sent to residential schools, where teachers and administrators worked to remove any of their indigenous culture

from them. His grandmother was taken into a nearby forest to live, he said, hidden from those who were taking children for the schools. It wasn’t until the grandmother’s brother was on his death bed that the family learned he had not escaped, as his sister had, but was another First Nations person who spent time in those schools, struggling with what he knew and what he was being exposed to in the classrooms. That’s one of the reasons rehearsals have been at the former Kamloops residential school, Payette said, a building that is part of that era, a school where some of those who sued the federal government and who shared their own stories in the truth and reconciliation commission hearings spent too many hours. One of the cast members told of her own grandmother, who used to work in the laundry of the school. Tk’emlups Indian Band elder Evelyn Camille visited early in the three-week rehearsal period to offer up a prayer and talk with the cast.

She showed them where she used to sit in the chapel, where rehearsals have been held, and look out the window at the sky, thinking of going home. “So much of the show is about finding home,” Payette said. It’s also a production that would appeal beyond the indigenous community, he said, and he’s hopeful others come to see it, to provide feedback as the cast and crew continue to mould the play. Aware audience members might have bad memories triggered, Western Canada Theatre, which has also helped Payette through the years, will have counsellors will in the audience ready to help anyone who needs it. A room at the theatre will also be available for those “who need a bit of time away from it,” Payette said. “This whole piece is about honouring the survivors and all the people who have passed away,” he said. “This is just one story, one step in that really long journey.” Children of God will be presented at 7:30 p.m. each of the three nights. Tickets are $15 and are available at the Kamloops Live box office, 1025 Lorne St., 250-374-5483, kamloopslive.ca.

Q: There’s been talk of weather affecting pumpkin crops this year, is this true for our area? A: Shane Landreville, marketing coordinator at Davison Orchards Country Village in Vernon, says they have not had a pumpkin shortage. The Vancouver Sun reported in August that the Fraser Valley was seeing pumpkins ripen weeks earlier than usual due to a hot summer. It caused speculation about the possibility of a pumpkin shortage. Landreville said Davison Orchards’ pumpkins did ripen slightly earlier than usual but pumpkins can last a very long time, so long as they’re

not punctured. “They can, really, in theory, last up to four to six months,” he said. The biggest challenge was picking them, Landreville said, with apples ripening around the same time. Parts of the United States reportedly faced a different weather-related issue affecting pumpkin crops this year — too much rain. Time recently reported that Illinois provides 90 per cent of the U.S.-grown pumpkins, with Libby — a canned-pumpkin manufacturer — telling the magazine

Show was McLauchlan ‘at his best’ DALE BASS

REVIEW

his is not going to be a review. Let’s be honest, how can a nonmusical person do a critique on Murray McLauchlan, one of this country’s most important folk singers? Instead, this is about a wonderful evening at Sagebrush Theatre with an intimate crowd of about 300 people — my husband noted with some surprise before the show began that there were a lot of grey-hairs there, including him — who were taken on a journey through McLauchlan’s life, through not just the 19 songs he sang but the stories he told between them. It might have been

Murray McLauchlan performed for about 300 people at Sagebrush Theatre on Tuesday. DALE BASS/KTW

a large theatre but it felt like a group of friends sitting in a living room listening

to tales from the son who hit the road to share his music. That’s pretty much

McLauchlan’s story and we have his mother to thank for it. Apparently a young McLauchlan declared to his parents in his mid-teens he wanted to attend arts school. This did not go over well with his Scottish father, “who, I guess, thought anyone who would do that had helium in their shoes,” he said. But, his parents did what parents do. “They sat down and they discussed it, the pros and the cons and then my father did what my mother told him to do.” And then, the music

began, opening with On the Boulevard, then on to Down by the Henry Moore — prefaced by a story about living in Toronto, ice skating in front of city hall in the middle of the night, sharing the rink with others learning to navigate on blades and a statue he passed with each trip around. His taciturn dad popped up in the next story, one of a man who refused to go see his folk-singing son perform, did not talk to him but, on the night McLauchlan was performing for a sold-out audience at Toronto’s iconic

Massey Hall, agreed to go to the show. To try and reconnect, McLauchlan sang then — and last night — Child’s Song (“Father you have taught me well goodbye”). There were moments during the 150-minute show that were warm memories of songs I’d forgotten were his, like Whispering Rain, written in 1978, and Sweeping the Spotlight Away (1974). After a brief intermission, one which sparked an apology from McLauchlan — “I didn’t know there was a bar. If I had, I would never have sent you out to get a glass of water” — it was on to more recent songs like

Then Where Would I Be and Ambitious Life. There were more stories, too, about seeing his ex-wife in the front row at a show, of his travellingsalesman brother, moments from the McLauchlan life that let the audience see more than the musician but a man who has faced many of the same life challenges we all have. And then, finally, the touchstone in his discography, Farmer’s Song, followed by an encore with My Wildest Dreams and the evening was finished. It was special, memorable, warm and, quite simply, Murray McLauchlan at his best. As always.

FILM ON CLIMATE CHANGE Local environmental group Kamloops350 is sponsoring Chasing Ice, a documentary that, over the course of several years, recorded the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s changing glaciers. National Geographic photographer James Balog used time-lapse cameras across the Arctic to create the documentary, which has won several awards for its content and cinematography, including an Emmy for outstanding nature programming. Balog was once a climate-change skeptic but, through his work, he changed his viewpoint and was determined to capture on film a key element of the discussion. The screening is on Wednesday, Oct. 28, at the Alumni Theatre in the Clock Tower Building at Thompson Rivers University. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., the film starts at 7 p.m., and a discussion follows. Admission is free; donations are accepted. The evening is part of the universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Films for Change series.

Buy a combo for the kids CAMPAIGN FUNDS SPORTS Triple O’s is hosting its sixth annual KidSport Day fundraiser today to help give B.C. kids an opportunity to play sports. Triple O’s is donating a loony from the sale of every combo to KidSport B.C., with the money dispersed through chapters of that charity throughout the province. The campaign at Triple O’s has raised $140,000 since the program kicked off in 2010. This year’s goal is $50,000. The money supports families who can’t afford to put their kids in sports like hockey, baseball, gymnastics, lacrosse and soccer. “Triple O’s and its guests have an unbeatable track record of teaming up to help kids play team sports,” said White Spot and Triple O’s President Warren Erhart in a press release. “This year we’re setting our goal even higher. By enjoying a burger combo at a participating Triple O’s on October 23, you’ll be doing your part to help local kids play.” For about every $400 raised, one child gets to play sports for a year. KidSport has provided financial assistance to half a million young amateur athletes since its inception in 1993.

Fall hiring fair on Monday More than 45 of Kamloops’ largest employers will take part in a local hiring fair on Monday, Oct. 26. The free event is organized by Open Door Group and WorkBC, who operate the Employment Service Centres in the area, and will be held at the Coast Hotel & Conference Centre, 1250 Rogers Way in

Aberdeen, from noon to 4 p.m. “The Kamloops Hiring Fall Fair is the largest local hiring event of its kind in the region,” said Mallory Bilodeau of Open Door Group. The purpose of the hiring fair is to give job seekers the opportunity to meet face-toface with a variety of potential employers, develop a network

of local professional contacts and help both sides ask and answer questions. While the list of employers and organizations continues to grow, confirmed employer attendees include Walmart, Safeway, Investors Group, Mike Wiegle Helicopter Skiing, Tim Hortons, Tolko, Chances Casino, Moxies, Peavy

Mart and the Trans Mountain Expansion Project. Those seeking work do not need to register; however, job seekers should show up prepared. Job-seeking attendees should research the companies at the fair, dress appropriately, bring several copies of their resume and be prepared to talk about

abilities and skills. Attendees should practice their “elevator pitch,” which is a quick summary of their talents and why they would be a good addition to an employers’s team. For more information on the hiring fair, contact Bilodeau by phone at 250-434-9441 or by email at mallory. bilodeau@opendoorgroup.org.

BUSINESS WEEK Celebrating entrepreneurs

ALLEN DOUGLAS/KTW Representatives from Kamloops businesses gathered to hear the announcement of nominees for the Business Excellence Awards at Kamloops Ford Lincoln in September. Winners will be named at the gala tomorrow.

“Every year during BDC Small Business Week, we recognize Canadian entre‑ preneurs and small and medium‑sized enterprises from coast to coast. During the third week of October each year, we take a step back to take stock of the important role they play in creating overall prosperity. This is of even greater importance in times of economic instability. Daring to grow is never an easy task. In‑ evitably there are barriers that need to be knocked down as entrepreneurs navigate the path to success. Confronting challenges is essential if they want to play in today’s global com‑ petitive environment. It is not only about having the will, but also about having the tools and resources to do so, both financial and non‑financial.” — Business Development Bank of Canada

Chamber: Every week is small business week

very week, the Kamloops Chamber of Commerce is working to deliver educational seminars and networking events for the business community. During Small Business Week, the chamber hosts two events: the Business Excellence Awards gala and a speed networking social for young professionals. The networking social is new on the chamber’s roster of events. “Our younger members have been asking for an event specifically targeted to their demographic,” said Deb McClelland, executive director of the chamber. “We partnered with GenNext, through the United Way, who have also been looking for some networking opportunities.” Young lawyers, accountants, trades people, small business owners and others from more than 40 organizations were in attendance, joined by TRU students, chamber staff and the GenNext board. The chamber also hosts seminars on a monthly basis, covering topics such as marketing strategies and employment law. An upcoming networking opportunity is a chamber social hosted by Stereo Warehouse on Nov. 4. “We are always amazed at the turnout for these events,”

McClelland said. “Business professionals from every sector come out to meet with like-minded individuals. It’s fun to watch the business that transpires at our socials.” Chamber socials are held on the first Wednesday of every month. They are open to nonmembers, who may attend twice for $10 each time. The public is invited to attend the chamber’s quarterly luncheon on Nov. 6 to hear an update from Royal Inland Hospital. Carol Laberge, Royal Inland Hospital health services administrator, will be speaking about RIH, the role it plays in health care in Kamloops and the exciting times ahead for the hospital, including updates on the clinical services building and patient care tower. Businesses are invited to bring their staff to the Corporate Christmas Luncheon on Dec. 11. “This is a chance for managers and business owners to thank their staff and have a fun lunch together to celebrate the season,” McClelland said. To register, or for more information, go online to kamloopschamber.ca or call 250.372.7722.

BUSINESS WEEK

Top 40 Woodworks takes honours Kamloops’ Top 40 Woodworks has been recognized by the B.C. chapter of the Architectural Woodwork Manufacturers Association for its work at the Kelowna Yacht Club. Top 40 Woodworks, which did the millwork for the new clubhouse, including the elegant wood stairwell in the centre, was awarded the 2015 Gold Award in the small commercial category. It’s the second time they’ve taken home the award in recent years. “It’s a real achievement for the whole company,” said owner Jack Mendes. “Even to just be in the running is a big honour, so to actually win is pretty cool.” The company spent six months alone working on

How small businesses can grow using social media PENTICTON — Local businesses throughout B.C.’s southern Interior can compete more effectively with larger companies in their neighbourhoods by harnessing the largely-underused field of social media, says one local expert. Brian Bevilacqua, a senior communications manager specializing in social media with the Valley First division of First West Credit Union says he sees enormous potential for the many local businesses he comes in contact with to boost their brand recognition through online social networks like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Google Plus, Yelp and others. Bevilacqua offers small business owners four key social media suggestions to help them grow their business: 1) Be focused. Start by creating a plan that answers the fundamental questions like, what is your business trying to achieve with social media? Who is your target audience? Which social networks

will best enable you to connect with the people that matter to you? What sort of content should you produce and share? How will you measure success? A clear, focused plan will help you decide how best to invest your limited energy, and will ensure that what you’re doing in social media is tightly aligned to your business’ goals. 2) Be human. One of the most common mistakes businesses make with social media is approaching it like just another advertising channel. Your target audience isn’t using social media because they want to be sold to by a company — they’re using it to have conversations and make genuine human connections. If you want to engage them, ditch the in-your-face sales pitches and look for opportunities to create or engage in authentic conversations. Interact with specific individuals. Share content that’s meaningful to the audience you

want to engage. When you’re genuinely social on social media, the people who matter will ultimately see the value your business offers and they’ll stay engaged. 3) Be visually engaging. When it comes to creating and sharing content, digital media is your best friend. Don’t just talk at people with sterile text — wherever possible, use attentiongrabbing images and videos to start conversations, tell your story, demonstrate who you are and show what you care about. You’ll capture people’s interest and you might even inspire others to share your content with their own social networks. 4) Be immediate. Social media is instantaneous. It’s “right now.” For businesses, that means responding right away to the questions, feedback and comments (including negative comments) that come your way. It means sharing content in the moment, when it’s fresh and still happening.

the spiral staircase, which Mendes called very intricate. “It’s much more a piece of art than a piece of work,” he said. Architect Jim Meiklejohn called the project “a labour of love,” as it was both hard to design and hard to construct. Meiklejohn Architects also took top honours for the project, recognized as the top architect in the province by the Association. The project is also nominated in the Southern Interior Construction Association Commercial Building Awards and the Canadian Home Builders’ Association’s Tommie Awards.

More changes to Parliament security coming, RCMP says

B19

StoryTellers

Gala

Upgrades being made in wake of 2014 shooting THE CANADIAN PRESS

OTTAWA — A year after a rampaging gunman stormed the Centre Block, the RCMP and federal officials are still studying ways to make Parliament Hill more secure, says a senior Mountie. While it’s still early, the process could lead to new, highly visible security measures on the Hill, said RCMP Assistant Commissioner Gilles Michaud. “We want to make sure that we address all potential threats,’’ Michaud said in an interview. One year ago yesterday, Michael Zehaf Bibeau fatally shot honour guard Cpl. Nathan Cirillo at the National War Memorial before rushing into Parliament Hill’s Hall of Honour, where he was killed in a hail of bullets. The RCMP was responsible for the grounds of the parliamentary precinct, while House of Commons and Senate security forces had jurisdiction inside the Parliament Buildings. A now-merged parliamentary protective service manages day-to-day security on Parliament Hill, a direct consequence of Oct. 22 intended to eliminate possible confusion. But Defence Research and Development Canada is quietly working away at two studies that could further transform security on the Hill and for about three dozen other buildings in the parliamentary precinct. One report, to be done by the end of the year, is looking at officer training, exercises and co-ordinating procedures of the newly merged security forces. The other, to be completed by April, is examining possible investments in new security facilities and

equipment or other kinds of measures. “I’m sure that they’re looking at some aspect of how we can better screen people before they come on to the Hill,’’ Michaud said. “Because we’re doing screening of vehicles, but what about people? Is there a way that that can be done without limiting their access?’’ He cautioned that wouldn’t necessarily mean setting up guard booths just inside the Hill gates, noting

screening could be accomplished through other tools, such as security cameras — which are already being used to some extent. “There are different ways of doing it,’’ Michaud said. Ultimately, options will be presented to the speakers of the House of Commons and Senate, who retain overall responsibility for Hill security, to see “what they’re willing to live with,’’ he added.

The goal is to balance security needs with access to a place Canadians and tourists love to visit. “And we need to respect that,’’ Michaud said. “Are there ways that we can still respect that fundamental privilege that exists, while ensuring that those that do visit feel safe, and are safe? “That’s a bit of a juggling act there, and that’s what we’re trying to make sure that we get right.’’

DUCEPPE STEPS DOWN MONTREAL — Gilles Duceppe has confirmed he is stepping down as leader of the Bloc Quebecois after just four months in charge. Duceppe made the announcement at Bloc headquarters in Montreal yesterday. He will be replaced on an interim basis by Rheal Fortin, who was elected in a riding north of Montreal in Monday’s election. Duceppe’s departure comes three days after the sovereigntist

party garnered 19.3 per cent of the popular vote in Quebec and won 10 out of the province’s 78 ridings — two short of the number required for official party status. Earlier this week, Duceppe, 68, said the results weren’t good enough. He also lost his own Montreal riding of Laurier-Sainte-Marie for the second straight election to the NDP’s Helene Laverdiere. Duceppe led the Bloc for 14 years before he stepped down

in 2011 after the party won just four seats. He became leader once again last June, when language-activist Mario Beaulieu stepped aside to make way for the more widely known and respected politician. Parti Quebecois Leader Pierre Karl Peladeau said Wednesday he wanted Duceppe to stay on, saying the BQ leader had a handle on federal issues as well as a good knowledge of federal intrusion into provincial jurisdiction. — The Canadian Press

has yet to be set and it is uncertain whether Conservative senators will also have a say. The 58-year-old former businesswoman said she has experience managing change and building operations and has also sat in opposition in the Commons. Finley said Conservative MPs will

have to learn how to transition into opposition, where they will not have the resources of government at their disposal for such things as research and speechwriting. The position of leader of the official Opposition comes with a number of perks, including a car and

driver, use of the official residence at Stornoway and a salary bump of $80,100. Finley would follow in the footsteps of Deborah Grey, who was interim Canadian Alliance leader in 2000 and the first woman in Canadian history to serve as leader of the official Opposition.

Historic Arctic deal to be signed All eight Arctic nations — including Canada and Russia — are to sign a historic deal next week for their coast guards to work together in the treacherous and increasingly accessible waters of the North. Creating the Arctic Coast Guard Forum is considered a significant step forward for international co-operation and will flesh out previous agreements on issues such as search and rescue. In most countries, coast guards are a branch of the military. That means the forum will also be a place where high-ranking officers from different countries will be able to meet regularly. The deal was supposed to have been signed last year in Canada. But the Harper government, protesting Russian actions elsewhere in the world, refused to allow officials from that country to take part. — The Canadian Press

Justin Trudeau’s 2013 ‘Just watch me’ note up for auction on eBay TOP BID WAS $3,650 BY YESTERDAY MORNING

THE CANADIAN PRESS

TORONTO — A 2013 note in which then-Liberal leadership contender Justin Trudeau predicted he would beat Prime Minister Stephen Harper is up for sale on eBay. Michael Kydd was on Porter Airlines flight on March 20, 2013, and passed a note to Trudeau asking “Can you really beat Harper?’’

Trudeau responded with a quote from his late father _ former prime minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau — “Just watch me.’’ Trudeau, who was running for the Liberal leadership at the time, confirmed the note in a tweet on the same day saying, “Yup, it was me.’’ Bidding on the note — which had attracted a top bid of $3,650 by early Thursday — ends Thursday afternoon. Trudeau’s father replied

“Well, just watch me!’’ on Oct. 13, 1970, when asked by a reporter how far he would go in limiting civil liberties to combat separatist terrorists during the October Crisis. Three days later, Pierre Elliott Trudeau invoked the War Measures Act, giving police more power in response to the kidnapping of British diplomat James Cross and Quebec provincial cabinet minister Pierre Laporte by the FLQ.

20 rescued from trafficking: police THE CANADIAN PRESS

TORONTO — Police say a major investigation into human trafficking has led to the rescue earlier this month of 20 people suspected of working in the sex trade as a minor or against their will. The investigation — called Operation Northern Spotlight — led to the arrest of 47 people who are now facing 135 charges, including trafficking in persons, forcible confinement, child pornography, and sexual assault with a weapon. Police say most of those who were rescued were under the age of 19, with some as young

as 14. The latest phase of Operation Northern Spotlight Police, which involved officers from 40 police agencies across Canada, was led by the Ontario Provincial Police. OPP Deputy Commissioner Scott Tod says that during the operation officers met with people suspected of taking part in the sex trade, potentially against their will, at locations across the country. South of the border, U.S. law enforcement agencies conducted a similar operation — called Cross Country — which resulted in the rescue of numerous children and the arrest of several suspects.

SPOOKY FUN IN OTTAWA JAMES ROSS

TRAVEL WRITERS’ TALES

he heavy door of the wine vault slams behind us, leaving us in the dark. We hear the horrible, cackling laugh of a killer, “Ah, ha, ha, ha,” echoing down the corridor, trailing off in a menacing wail. “You’re all going to die!” Then, in a final sinister threat, the fiend promises to be back in exactly 45 minutes to finish the job. There is nothing but darkness and silence, save for the big clock on the wall, counting down the seconds to our demise, “tick-tock, tick-tock!” I throw myself against the door and jiggle the latch — locked. “We’re finished,” I moan in despair. “Doomed! I knew there was something odd about that fellow!” “Dad, it’s a game, he is the owner, get a hold of yourself,” say my sensible kids. Oh yes, I am in Ottawa’s Escape Manor with my wife and four teenage children. It is the city’s newest entertainment rage. Escape Manor invites groups of two to six people to escape from four different scenarios: our creepy wine vault, a locked prison cell, a corporate office or an asylum. Once locked up and on your own, you have to work together to find clues and solve puzzles that will lead to freedom. It is part CSI and part Indiana Jones — not simple, but a whole lot of fun. The catch is, success has to be achieved in 45 minutes or you will meet a tragic end, and,

7 pm, Sat. Nov 7, 2015 Escape Manor in Ottawa invites groups of two to six people to escape from four different scenarios.

as I am learning, escaping a room here is no easy feat. “Tick-tock!” We had decided on the wine vault because, I suppose, it has been a long-time dream of my wife to get locked in a wine cellar. In fact, I can’t help but notice she doesn’t seem to be helping much in the early going. I remind her it isn’t red wine in the bottles, but the blood of the murderer’s victims. This spurns her into action, and finally progress is being made. I can’t tell you the clues we are uncovering, because that would ruin it for others. Needless to say, we are making headway with logic and method and teamwork, and only a bit of panic, mostly from me. We have unravelled some very perplexing riddles, but always there is the sound of the clock echoing through the room. According to Billy Rogers, one of Escape Manor’s four founders, the new attraction offers a unique experience. “It’s a mystery within a mystery and everything is in play in

the room. You’re the main character, involved, instead of watching it from the outside.” “Tick-tock! Personally, as the tension builds inside the room, I think I would rather be watching from the outside. The wine vault’s set-up is very clever. Just when you think you have something figured out, you’re forced to try again. I guess that is why only 17 per cent of guests actually manage to escape the rooms on time. This is a great team-building exercise — unless your group works together, there isn’t any chance of success. The clock ticks down toward zero and, in spite of the progress we have made, we struggle with one more puzzle. I think we have lost but then, like every great thriller, we decipher a final code in the nick of time, allowing us to find a key to unlock the door. We are saved! Is it just me or does Rogers seem disappointed to see us walk down the hall and into the lobby — free? I guess failure brings people back to try again.

I imagine we will return to test the other three rooms — with more to come, promises Rogers. In “Prison Break,” you are wrongly accused and locked behind bars on death row. Your last day has come, but the prison guards have gone on break and left the keys to your cell in sight. All you have to do is get to them. “The Darkness” is a corporate office, where you made a deal with a strange businessman, Lou Cifer, to further your career. Can you find that contract and escape with your soul before the Prince of Darkness returns? “The Asylum” is a haunted hospital with a mad scientist hiding in the basement. You must escape before the clock ticks to zero, or you could very well become the next human piece in a formaldehyde jar. Perhaps I could bring my inlaws for a visit, and lock them in this loony bin. Escape Manor is spooky, fun and very challenging — but book early for a visit, as it is difficult to get in and very hard to get back out.
