Although most provinces are now charging tuition for Adult Basic Education (ABE), Selkirk College is bucking the trend. Tuition for ABE at Selkirk in Grand Forks will remain free throughout the winter session. In 2008, the provincial government mandated that all ABE should be free so they gave additional money to colleges and universities to ensure that would happen. In December 2014, the government had a shift in policy and decided to no longer mandate that institutions provide ABE for free. “So they basically allowed institutions to make their own choice and charging tuition,” said Allison Adler, dean of academic upgrading for Selkirk College. “At the same time they took back that money they gave us in 2008.” Adler did say the money was just a portion of the budget for ABE. “They didn’t take all the money away,” she said. “You don’t have to offer it tuitionfree. How you determine whatever you’re going to do is up to you.” Adler added that the government is offering extra money in grants this year to help those who are disadvantaged to take ABE. “They said we can charge tuition and we’ll help people pay it,” she said. “What we’ve done at Selkirk is that we’ve decided to take this year to find out what the right approach is for our area. That’s why we still don’t have tuition. In Grand Forks we won’t until next year, if at all.” Adler said no matter what they decide, they want to ensure that ABE is accessible to those who need it. “We want people who need to upgrade to be able to upgrade,” she said. “That’s why we’ve decided to use this year to come up with the right plan. So if we do charge tuition we’ll have the things in place to make sure people can come whether or not they can afford it. We still want it to be accessible to those who need it.” Adler said there are a variety of reasons why people take ABE, from a desire to learn to wanting to change careers to get their high school graduation to upgrading to qualify for university. “There are lots of different reasons why people come and some of it is personal, some is professional,” she said. “We’re building a plan to keep it accessible. What we hope is that there won’t be a bump for students and they’ll keep coming. Either they will qualify for a grant if we charge tuition or we’ll have something else in place. We don’t want to create hardships.”
Upgrades at Pacific Abrasives are about 80 per cent complete. The company, which processes the slag from the city’s slag pile, is enlarging the building to make room for new and more efficient equipment. See story page A16. Craig Lindsay photo
Bonfire a Halloween tradition CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
It isn’t Halloween in Grand Forks without a trip to the Rotary bonfire at Angus MacDonald Park. The bonfire has long been a tradition in Grand Forks and attracts hundreds of kids, adults and families. There is always plenty to do with a fortune teller, complimentary kettle corn for the kids, fireworks and, of course, the giant bonfire. The big pile of wood for the bonfire is provided courtesy of Boundary Electric and the City of Grand Forks. Rotarian Gord Nichols said he figures the tradition of the Halloween bonfire started about 40 years ago. “It went back to the early days of the Rotary Club in Grand Forks, which began in 1965,” he said. “So it started shortly after that. Part of the impetus at that time was that there was quite a bit of vandalism in the downtown core. The merchants and Rotarians thought that if they had a focal point outside of the downtown core that maybe the youth would congregate there so if there were people wandering around downtown causing mischief, they’d be more visible.” Nichols said the effort proved very success-

ful in reducing vandalism in downtown Grand Forks. “Over the years it’s become very popular,” he said. “We used to do more traditional things like apple-bobbing, sack races and costume judging. Some time before my time, around 1980, Rotary started with the fireworks. Over the years it’s got way more sophisticated and larger.” Nichols said they even ran a haunted house for a number of years, which was popular but a lot of work to set up and take down. “It was so labour intensive to put that together in one day and tear it down,” he said. “Now we’re doing hot chocolate and music, which is fairly new.” Nichols said the Rotary Halloween bonfire was mentioned in Beautiful B.C. magazine in the 1990s as one of the must do events in the province. He said it remains just as popular today. “We get everyone coming from kids in strollers to geriatrics in wheelchairs,” said Nichols. “It’s open to everyone. It’s very accessible.” Nichols said the bonfire will be lit around 6 p.m. with the hot chocolate and fortune teller setting up around 6:30 p.m. The fireworks will be starting at about 8 p.m.

1909 The engine that went over the bank at Phoenix was taken through Grand Forks on Tuesday. It was a strange sight, battered and stripped to the body. It fell over 400 feet and a truck had to be built to bring it up. The cable broke once in the ascent and it went back to its resting place, but a second attempt was successful. 1914 Mayor Matheson and J.R. Thompson went to the coast on Monday to interview government officials with a view to developing a plan for work for the unemployed residents in Phoenix, where the present unemployment rate was reaching critical levels. 1919 Another of the premier fruit ranches in the valley changed ownership this week when Mr. W.B. Bishop disposed of his 27-acre tract, three miles east of the city, to Malcolm Henderson and H.J. Smeets, the consideration being $12,000. 1924 Hill, Lynch and Fred Downey were the only exhibitors from Grand Forks at the annual poultry show in Nelson, but they collected nearly the bag limit in prizes, a total of 22. 1929 Rev. Samual Lundie, who was Presbyterian minister at Phoenix for about 20 years, shot by mistake at what he thought was a deer, and accidentally killed his hunting partner. The incident took place in Sooke, near Victoria. 1934 Midway – A group of men under W. Clark of Rock Creek started work last
week on the rocky bluff near Joe Richter’s ranch. The bluff has been a menace to traffic for some time. 1939 Kettle Valley – Funeral services were held Friday for Ida Ellen Weed, 69 years of age, in the Kettle Valley Church. Mrs. Weed came to this community in 1896, making her home on Ingram Mountain where she lived every since. 1949 The death of Albert Henry Biggin took place last week. The late Mr. Biggin, with his wife and son Roy, settled on a ranch in Norwegian Creek in 1921. But owing to dry years with poor crops, he opened a tailor shop in Midway, and continued in that business until a few weeks before his death. 1954 Premier W.A.C. Bennett told an audience of nearly 500 people Monday night that the contract for the Grand Forks/ Christina Lake road would be let this year and the Cascade Summit Road would be let next year. 1959 Leo Mills reported to the board of trade that in the future it would be about 15 miles from Grand Forks to Boundary Falls via the No. 7 road. He said he understood the contract would be let in 1961 or 1962. 1964 Section B of the Boundary 4-H Club placed second among clubs at the Kamloops Winter Fair, having totaled the second highest number of points. 1969 West Kootenay champs in the senior girls’ grass hockey competition was Grand Forks.
❚ The Way It Was
Pet of the Week
1974 District Highways manager W.G. Helmsing advised city council, “We have now received confirmation from Victoria that a traffic signal will be installed at 12th St. and Central Ave. in 1975.” 1979 On the request of Nancy Dale, the government has passed an Order-inCouncil rescinding her appointment as a justice of the peace in the Grand Forks area. 1984 John George (Jack) Acres, a longtime resident of the Boundary area, died peacefully Oct. 10 at his home at Christina Lake. He was 71 years of age. 1989 The City of Grand Forks began the process of developing an emergency response program—the first step being to take inventory of the resources available in the community. 1995 Vickie and Rick Llewellyn established Jerseyland Cheese, producing a wide variety of high-quality specialty cheeses. 2000 The Phoenix Foundation is making a difference: “In two and one-half years, the foundation has returned $27,000 in grants to our communities, and this fiscal year we will be able to grant over $22,000,” said board chair Bill Strookoff at their annual general meeting. 2005 Residents of Midway were shocked as Pope & Talbot announced the closure of its Midway operations. The company said that some job reductions are anticipated; senior qualified employees will be transferred and certain equipment will be relocated.

Rec commission looking for new members CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
The Grand Forks Recreation Commission is looking for a few good people. With a few recent resignations, the commission currently has five members: Gene Robert, city representative and chairperson; Julia Butler, council/appointed by city; Dean Engen, representing the library and arts societies (culture); Cindy Strukoff, representing School District 51; and Ken Johnston, rural Grand Forks representative. The board meets once a month on the second Thurs-
day of each month starting at 9:45 a.m. at the David Borchelt meeting room at Jack Goddard Memorial Arena. “We had a resignation,” said Tom Sprado, GFREC manager of facilities and recreation. “We’re allowed to have up to 11. I’m hoping to have seven.” Sprado said that he is allowed to appoint four members himself, two from the city and two from the rural area. Other members are appointed through the arts, school board, RDKB Area D and the City of Grand Forks. Sprado said the rec committee is mainly concerned with
operating decisions regarding the arena and the pool. GFREC is a shared service between Grand Forks and RDKB Area D/Rural Grand Forks. “We have three budgets that the commission looks at,” said Sprado. “We have an operating budget for the pool, an operating budget for the arena, and I have to program those two facilities. So I have a programming budget.” Anyone interested in joining the commission can contact Tom at GFREC at 250-4422202 or email tsprado@rdkb. com.

The Grand Forks Cycling Club (GFCC) has made a donation to the Grand Forks Community Trails Society (GFCTS) in honour of Bo (Bohdan) Juzkiw, a well-respected member of the cycling club. Bo died on Aug. 8 this past summer while cycling the Red Rock Century Ride in Evergreen, Colorado. Bo Juzkiw was a master cyclist who had cycled in the GFCC for several years. He was well-liked. He cycled alone, with other members, and on club rides. He was quiet and unassuming. He supported the club doing whatever was needed or asked of him. He will be missed by our riding community. Bo was also involved in the raising and showing of whippet dogs with his wife of 44 years, Janet. They loved to walk their dogs on the trails in and around Grand
Forks, so a donation to the GFCTS was deemed to be a fitting way to honour this man who loved the outdoors. The GFCTS is an active group of outdoor enthusiasts whose goals are “to develop and promote accessible trails for all to enjoy, and to enhance social and recreational opportunities in and around Grand Forks.” They provide stewardship of the Trans Canada Trail from North Fork through Grand Forks and beyond to Cascade. The GFCC is made up primarily of road cyclists but many members also mountain bike. They hold weekly training rides for cyclists of all abilities, plus rides for fun, fitness and socialization. The club holds a variety of races such as individual and team time trials, hill climbs, and a 100 kilometre Century Ride each year; these more formal events attract riders from across the province.

Proud to have bonfire
Halloween is one of the best times of the year for children as well as for many adults. Most of us remember dressing up in our costumes and going door to door to get treats. Of course, Halloween also has a dark side of vandalism and debauchery. For some reason, some clowns think it’s okay to wreck stuff or terrorize kids because it’s Halloween. Years past, Grand Forks had a real problem with teens creating trouble in the downtown core. That’s when the local Rotary club came up with the idea of having a bonfire event far away from downtown. The plan worked like a charm and vandalism and hooliganism dropped significantly on All Hallow’s Eve. Of course, it’s hard to pinpoint the exact degree. Hopefully, youth have grown more responsible over the years. At any rate, the Rotary bonfire has grown and changed over the years but remains a popular staple of the city, one that not many communities in the province can boast.

An epiphany from the bottom of a bottle of wine Reckonings DELLA MALLETTE I had an epiphany the other night. I wish I could say it was about something important—that I’d discovered the true meaning of life, that I know what my role is in this world, that I understand how to achieve inner peace. No. Before I admit what my silly sudden realization was, let me explain. I’ve had a cold the last week, all of us at home have gotten it at the same time. That’s handy because misery does love company. I bought a large container of Vick’s, brought up a six pack of Kleenex from the pantry shelf and plugged in the vaporizer. We’re on our second bottle of Nyquil. This column wasn’t meant to be an advertisement but I can’t resist saying how good a thick layer of goopy Vicks Vaporub feels. And NyQuil will put you to sleep for some three to four hours before a
fit of coughing wakes you up. But add a few cold and sinus pills to get you through the work day, and it all adds up to some very vivid, colourful dreams about a whole lot of nothing. Monday night I thought I’d try to get a night’s sleep in a more traditional way: I took an extra-strength Advil and drank a bottle—just a piccolo bottle!—of Henkell Trokken sparkling wine. I’m obviously not much of a drinker; sure I went to sleep! And I was plagued by dreams nonetheless. Lo and behold comes this epiphany that woke me up sometime around midnight: that a fire extinguisher is just like skeet shooting in almost all respects. Pull! Aim! Squeeze the trigger! See!? The only difference is that in skeet shooting you aim for the sky, and if you’re wielding a fire extinguisher, aim for the base of the flames. In all seriousness (although my story is true!), epiphany is a beautiful word. It rolls off the tongue so eloquently (another
sweet word). The Merriam-Webster dictionary tells us epiphany is a Christian festival held on Jan. 6 held in honour of the coming of the Magi as the first manifestation of Christ to the Gentiles; or, in the Eastern Church, in commemoration of the baptism of Christ. The dictionary also describes epiphany as a moment in which you suddenly see or understand something in a new or very clear way. Wikipedia (because we all trust Wikipedia, right?) says an epiphany (from the ancient Greek epiphaneia, “manifestation, striking appearance”) is an experience of sudden and striking realization. Generally the term is used to describe scientific breakthrough, religious or philosophical discoveries, but it can apply in any situation in which an enlightening realization allows a problem or situation to be understood from a new and deeper perspective. And from the Urban Dictionary: when you’re really loopy and realize something.
HOW TO REACH US
THE FINE PRINT The Gazette reserves the right to refuse any advertising. The Gazette shall not be responsible for any damage arising from error in any advertisement, beyond the cost of space occupied by the alleged error. In the event of an error, that portion of the advertising space occupied by the erroneous item, together with reasonable allowance for signature, will not be charged for and shall be printed once – the advertiser should alert The Gazette of the error as quickly as possible. Should the balance of the advertisement be reprinted, at the discretion of the customer, the balance shall be paid for at the applicable rate. Where errors occur, The Gazette or its advertisers shall not be liable. Advertising constitutes an offer to sell which may be withdrawn at any time.
Whatever definition you use, I reckon to have an epiphany is a good thing. If your definition is as a festival to commemorate the coming of the Magi, then that must be a deeply moving moment in your life; if it’s that it allows you to come to a realization about a problem or situation that can be understood from a new and deeper perspective, that’s important too. I used a very silly example of likening a fire extinguisher to skeet shooting to start a conversation about epiphanies, but hopefully, as it has me, it has you thinking about your own experiences, stories, thoughts—your own epiphanies. Big or small, these moments of enlightened perception can provide us with more understanding of ourselves and others, more empathy, more compassion. They could change your outlook on yourself, and other people in your life. Spending a few moments in reflection, in meditation, in quiet contemplation can only be a good thing.

Barriers at post office too large Editor, The Gazette: Why do we have those large barriers in front of the post office? If you run into one of them you can damage
your vehicle. Why can’t we have the smaller curbs put there like there is everywhere else around town where we
park? Also, they distract from the beauty of our city! R.W. Jones, Grand Forks
Boondoggle now in Phase 2
Editor, The Gazette: Phase 2 of the universal water meter boondoggle is in progress… there were approximately 400 meters remaining to be installed. Here are a few things all residents and homeowners should know. Were you aware that all homeowners could get a water meter installed WITHOUT the RF feature? Apparently this was an option available all along, but for some reason very, very few seem aware of it. You can see the info here now on the city website, www.grandforks.ca/waterconservation/water-meter-information/, where it outlines three installation options: 1) in house, 2) outside on house, and 3) property line. The following is an excerpt from Option 2: “This option utilizes the ProRead Encoder, which is a wall touch receptacle that is installed on the outside of the house. Water consumption is communicated by using a three-conductor bell wire connected from the meter (located in the house) to the touch receptacle. There are no RF’s emitted with this choice. There would be a cost of $25 for each reading. The
z Thumbs Up
number of readings per year has yet to be determined, and will be set by the Water Rates Committee once it is established.” It’s a concern that meter installations were perhaps done without fair disclosure of all the facts… these options should have been very clearly communicated to all homeowners, for each and every installation. I spoke with an elderly homeowner today, who just had an indoor RF water meter installed; she told me she was not offered any options at all. If you are concerned about RF radiation from the meters, and you were NOT clearly informed or aware of the non-RF option at time of installation, the city should offer to convert your RF meter to a non-RF meter at their expense. It’s the city’s responsibility to do this program openly and with full understanding on both sides. To do otherwise is reprehensible. Call or write in and insist on the conversion. If you haven’t yet had a meter installed, it is your right to ask for option 2. For those with pit meters,
www.grandforksgazette.ca A5
it should be noted that the ProRead meter is available in a non-RF pit meter version as well; www.grandforks. ca/wp-content/uploads/ ProRead-Encoder.pdf. It appears the “push” is to get RF meters installed everywhere, despite all the protest and concern about RF radiation. The costs of the program are mounting, and we haven’t seen the end of it yet. Millions will be wasted on this program. This system wasn’t in place before, so there will be new costs added to what we already had. Has anyone accounted for all these costs? How much will it cost to administer? What the actual final cost of the system will be? Will they have to add staff to run this system? Countless hours already invested by city staff, future maintenance of the system, computer system integration, software, wireless reading devices, manual meter reading, billing issues, and on and on it goes. In a word, Boondoggle. Jack Koochin, Grand Forks
Produce appreciated Thumbs up to the residents and merchants of Grand Forks who have supported the Boundary Community Food Bank with fresh produce. Very much appreciated!

In the aftermath of the long 2015 federal election the pundits are doing their best to sift through the results and come up plausible explanations for what happened? Why were the pollsters so wrong? How did the man they said wasn’t ready win by a large majority? Why did the NDP fail to convince the electorate that they could govern the country? Why did the Conservatives fail in their bid for a fourth term? We were all witness to a long campaign with a surprising outcome. Isn’t Rousing it enough now to watch what Justin the Rabble Trudeau and the Liberals do? Perhaps the answers to the questions ROY RONAGHAN are as simple as the electorate deciding to take decisive action and rid the country of a prime minister who worked to make Canada in his image. They saw an opportunity for “real change” in a party led by a young and energetic Justin Trudeau and took it. Although he was an effective adversary in his opposition role in the House of Commons, Tom Mulcair failed to inspire voters during the campaign like his predecessor, Jack Layton. George Heyman, an NDP member of the B.C. legislature, summed up the NDP’s demise on election night. “People were waiting to see who the agent of change would be. I think many elements of the NDP campaign were very good. But we were unable to project to Canadians that we would be bold and adventurous. And Justin Trudeau saw a gap and leapt into it.” Doug Ward, a columnist for The Tyee online newspaper, identified three key elements behind the shift of anti-Conservative voters to the Liberals and not the NDP. • Trudeau embraced short-term deficits to fund needed infrastructure. It was a bold move. The NDP on the other hand stuck with a “balanced budget” approach. • The debate on the niqab in mid-September weakened the NDP support in Quebec and when voters saw the party slipping in the polls they shifted to the Liberals. • Trudeau was able to match Mulcair in the debates and throughout the campaign. His youthful appearance and energy was refreshing for most people who had grown tired Harper’s stiff and dictatorial approach Greg Lyle, an expert on elections and public opinion and head of the Innovative Research Group stated, “the Liberals became ‘real change now’ and the NDP was ‘some change, some day’.” According to Lyle, what worked for the Liberals was a shift to the left of the NDP. It worked because people don’t think about being left or right, but they want something done. Thomas Homer-Dixon, an international affairs professor at the University of Waterloo is of the opinion that Canadians were sick of austerity and liked Trudeau’s activist approach. They were not concerned about a balanced budget. Homer-Dixon sees Trudeau as a clever political operator and like Jean Chretien he is consistently underestimated. David Moscrop, a professor of political science at the University of B.C., saw the NDP’s campaign as timid and much like the provincial NDP campaign in 2013. Had they been the party to announced running deficits they would have been pilloried for doing so. Had the campaign been the usual five-week version instead of 11 weeks, Mulcair might have fared better. The longer campaign worked to the advantage of Trudeau and to the disadvantage of Mulcair and Harper. Trudeau proved that he was a quick learner, grew as the campaign progressed and proved that he was a force to be reckoned with. Chris Wood, a journalist for the Tyee, advised his readers, “But for now, let’s pat ourselves on the back for ballots well cast. Let’s breathe the morning air delightfully free of paranoia, suspicion and fear. Let’s be grateful for voters who broke the curse of the three-legged dog. And then let’s do a bit more, and give the man a chance.”

Dear Patients, Friends, and Fans of Yaletown Acupuncture As some of you may know, I recently injured my foot. I’ve been limping along for awhile, but the bad news is I may need surgery followed by several weeks on crutches. The GOOD NEWS is I’m hand-picking some talented new practitioners to help operate my clinic and care for my dear patients while I’m recovering. These are people I would choose for my personal care. Please continue to support both the clinic and your own well-being by visiting my locums while I’m mending. GF needs the services that clinics like Yaletown Acupuncture provide use it or lose it! Hoping to be back on my own two feet soon.

Extravaganza proceeds will go to Habitat build ANDREW TRIPP
For the Grand Forks Gazette
Greenwood’s McArthur Centre promises to be awash with glitter and grace come Nov. 7, when the Southeast B.C. affiliate of Habitat for Humanity partners with Yellow Door Boutique proprietor Heather Smith to present a Rock Creek fire relief extravaganza. The brainchild of Smith and HFH’s Cindy Fairs, the benefit will include a silent auction, as well as a Parisian-style fashion show. The latter will feature local retailers’ clothing, including men’s and women’s attire, sportswear and vintage garments. Models will range in ages from early ’20s to ’70s and the show will feature a traditional fashion runway, providing the presentation with a truly authentic feel. The City of Greenwood has donated the space for the event,
which Smith hopes will prove an excellent opportunity for local merchants to “strut their stuff” and show residents and visitors alike that the Boundary has a lot to offer when it comes to fashion. As for the music, it will, according to Smith, “be a surprise worth waiting for.” The show gets going at 3 p.m. and is scheduled to last for three hours. Smith and Fairs had first conceived of the event last year, when both felt compelled to donate their energies to the Boundary Women’s Transition House, located in Grand Forks but serving the entire region. It wasn’t until the Rock Creek fire struck, however, that the two resurrected the concept as a meaningful, yet entertaining contribution to the relief effort. Funds raised will go toward the construction of a new home for an under-insured family that lost their own
dwelling to the fire. “Unlike the traditional standard of selecting a family based on a screening criteria and then holding the mortgage for families that it supports, Habitat will be raising funds to rebuild on land already owned by the homeowner,” Fairs said. As for the actual event, Fairs added, “We have secured some lovely silent auction items, including a one night stay at the Coast Capri in Kelowna with breakfast for two, and possibly two more hotels with similar packages. Planning for the event is coming together nicely.” In the spirit of inclusion, entry is by donation only with 100 per cent of the proceeds going to Habitat for Humanity and their rebuilding project. To donate items for the silent auction, contact HFHSEBC at 250-442-2722 ext. 229.

Beware of CRA scam POLICE BRIEFS By Craig Lindsay
CRA scams
Police are once again warning residents to be wary of callers saying they are from the Canadian Revenue Agency and if they don’t pay, someone will come over and arrest them. Cpl. Richard Lanz said a number of people in the Grand Forks area have called in and said they were hit although no one has lost any money. There is the Black Book of Scams available at the police station for anyone interested in seeing the variety of scams out there. Driver given three-day prohibition
On Oct. 19 at 1 a.m. police were called to 68th Avenue and 21st Street regarding a loud vehicle playing music. “Police attended and located the vehicle in question,” said Cpl. Richard Lanz. “As a result of the investigation, open liquor was found in the vehicle and charges for having open liquor in a motor vehicle were issued.” The driver, a 30-year-old female from Grand Forks, was read an ASD demand and the results were a warn. “A three-day driving prohibition was given to the driver,” said Lanz. “The vehicle was impounded for three days.” Driver given driving prohibition
On Oct. 19 at 6:08 p.m., police checked a vehicle going west on Central Avenue as they received several reports of this vehicle possibly driving erratically. “The vehicle was stopped and an odour of liquor was noted,” said Lanz. “An ASD demand was read and the result was a warn.” The driver, a 43-year-old Grand Forks resident, was given a three-day driving prohibition and the vehicle was impounded for three days. Vehicle goes over bank
At 9:44 a.m. on Oct. 20, police were called to a single motor vehicle incident at the corner of Granby Road and Valley
Heights Drive. “A vehicle was coming down the hill from Valley Heights and failed to stop at the stop sign at the bottom of the hill,” said Lanz. “The vehicle went across the road and over the bank and ended up colliding with a fence and stopping against a tree.” There was extensive damage done to the vehicle. Minor injuries were sustained. “A violation ticket was issued for failing to keep right,” said Lanz. The driver was a 76-year-old female. Hit and run On Oct. 23 at 10:29 a.m., police received a report of a hit and run on Fourth Street in Grand Forks. “It is believed that two vehicles were angle parked on Fourth Street,” said Lanz. “When one of the vehicles backed out of the parking spot, it ended up colliding with the vehicle next to it.” Lanz said there was damage to the vehicle which was hit, a Honda Civic. The suspect vehicle is a Chev pick-up. “The owner of the pick-up has been located and spoken to,” he said. “The matter is still being investigated.” Both drivers were from Grand Forks. Vehicle fails to yield On Oct. 23 at 9:11 p.m., police responded to a motor vehicle collision at the corner of Spraggett Road and Highway 3. “A vehicle, a Chevy Impala, approached the intersection and went to make a left turn on Highway 3,” said Lanz. “That vehicle failed to yield to oncoming traffic and pulled out. The vehicle was then hit by a GMC pick-up.” Lanz said that both vehicles sustained extensive front end damage and had to be towed from the scene. “Minor injuries were reported,” he said. “A violation ticket was issued for failing to yield after stop.” The ticketed driver was a 70-year-old female from Grand Forks.

Seniors invited to lunch A long-time Grand Forks tradition returns this Halloween as the senior’s luncheon goes Oct. 29 with two seatings (11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.) at the senior’s centre in City Park. “People need to book through the rec centre (250-442-2202),” said Lynne Hansen, Grand Forks Seniors’ Society board member. “There’s room for 100 people in each sitting.” Hansen said seniors can expect a full turkey dinner with all the trimmings. The meal open to seniors (55+) and is free although there is a donation jar. Putting on the dinner for the second year in a row is the Grand Forks Seniors’ Society in conjunction with the Legion.
“We took it over,” she said. “For five years Daniel and Jennifer Chu did it. It was their contribution to the community. We wanted to keep the tradition going.” Daniel Chu was the developer who purchased land at Copper Ridge. When the Chus stepped down, the seniors’ society took it over. Twisted Forks will be doing the catering. Hansen said the luncheon was originally around Thanksgiving but will the federal election advance polls, the luncheon was moved to near Halloween. “It’s a nice community event,” she said. “People start asking in August about it.”

Petition put away for now CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
A petition started in the spring by a local resident calling for the government to investigate the Doug Allin rehiring has been put away for now. Donald Pharand, who lives in Area D, said the petition has reached 1,000 signatures and he is just waiting for the right
time to bring it to the Attorney General. “We’re no longer actively searching for signatures,” said Pharand. “We figure we have a good number.” Pharand said the petition must be presented to the Attorney General and not just mailed. “You need to present it with something else,” he said. “I’m a lifelong petitioner and I
know when you do a petition you need to have something else to go with it. There’s a lot of public attention on what’s unfolding that we know about. There’s a lot that’s unfolding that we don’t know about. That’s what I’m after—the stuff we don’t know about.” Pharand would not elaborate on what he was precisely waiting for.

School Superintendent Kevin Argue spoke of his excitement over the commencement of the school year, particularly in light of last year’s teachers’ strike, and described the high level of energy he and Director of Learning Doug Lacey felt in all of the buildings they visited during the first weeks of school. Argue highlighted his recent visit to Boundary Central Secondary School, where he was impressed with the full and varied itinerary scheduled that day. The morning saw students and staff competing in an inaugural Terry Fox Run, which was followed by a staff-prepared turkey lunch, an all-candidates forum and capped off by a teachers’ non-instructional duty session. Argue noted B.C. Teachers’ Federation representative Norm Sabourin’s impassioned speech about Terry Fox that got participants motivated to complete the run/walk and donate to the Terry Fox foundation. Delegation discusses projectbased learning
Effectively captivating all
students is the goal of projectbased learning; that was the focus of a West Boundary Elementary School delegation led by Vice-Principal Anna Lautard, who was accompanied by faculty member Sarah Bond. This approach to learning is in stark contrast to the traditional curriculum design, which presents material based on the assumption that all students are created equal when it comes to learning competencies or interests. The inquiry period for staff and students is well under way, Lautard explained. SD51 hosts BCSSA
SD51 hosted a B.C. School Superintendents Association conference at Christina Lake in early October, which brought superintendents from across the province together for a twoday symposium and several meetings. Argue noted how pleased delegates were to be visiting Boundary, impressed by its beauty and ambiance. New hirings
12 new teachers have been hired in the district, along with 34 support workers, which the superintendent is also very pleased about. A report on class size revealed that the average number of students per class has remained steady in comparison
to the previous school year and that overall enrolment was also holding its own. Kindergarten registration, however, was up over last September. Meetings with Apple Corporation
In addition, Argue spoke briefly about last spring’s meetings between Apple Corporation and SD51 representatives, describing them as the early stages of establishing a digital learning system within schools. Staff and teachers attended a one-day Apple training session to better-prepare them for designing a mission and vision statement for digital learning in the district, which will see professional development for teachers as the effort’s first major step. The board also updated the district’s proposed implementation of Microsoft’s Office 365 and its One Drive storage service, which allows students the ability to store their own information on a secure server. One Drive allows for storage and access of data on any type of digital device, which would be particularly beneficial to students sharing iPads. It was noted, however, that parental support for the One Drives account was not universal, so alternative data storage methods were being explored for those preferring not to access the One Drive option. The next SD51 board meeting will be on Nov. 10 at the district office in Grand Forks.

Whispers of Hope Community Kitchen and Thrift Store celebrated their second anniversary in their new location on Saturday with a free barbecue, big sale, cake cutting and unveiling of a new sign and logo. “Whispers had another successful year,”
said manager Andre Boruck. “In the kitchen in 2014 we averaged 27 hot meals served each day and this year the number is approximately 35,” he said. “In August we served 43 meals per day which is abnormally high.” Boruck said the kitchen has also added a free continental breakfast each morning and has extended the serving hours.

’Tis the season for craft fairs Grand Forks Gazette
GFSS Christmas Craft Fair There will be plenty of chances to pick up some great Christmas gifts when several craft fairs hit town. Probably the largest one is the annual GFSS grad class craft fair, which runs from Nov. 28 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the school gym. “People can expect a cheerful and festive atmosphere,” said Tori Stavenjord, grad media liason. “There will be all sorts of local artisans along with other local businesses and community members. There will be unique items that make not only great Christmas gifts but also gifts for any occasion.” The grad craft fair will feature a wide variety of items such as crafts, jewelry, refurbished furniture, baked good, wood crafts, quilts and local artisan crafts such as felted soap. “The turnout for the craft fair over the years has been tremendous and we hope it remains that way,” said Stavenjord. “It really gets everyone in the holiday mood and is a great kick start to the holidays.” Tables are available for local vendors at a cost of $25. “We’ve already got 48 vendors lined up and currently have a waitlist,” said Karen Heric, grad parent sponsor. Anyone who wants to get on the waitlist should call the office. There will also be a raffle for gift baskets full on items donated by vendors. In addi-
tion, pizza, coffee, hot chocolate and hot apple cider will be on sale in the multi-purpose room. All money raised from the event will go towards the 2016 graduation ceremony and prom. Homemade Holiday Fair at Hutton Another wonderful upcoming Christmas craft fair is the Homemade Holiday Fair, which is a fundraiser for Boundary Family and Individual Services Society (BFISS) peer mentor program. The fair goes Nov. 14 from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. at Hutton School’s gym and is free to the public. “We will have Randy Ball from Ball Photography taking family Christmas photos there for $5,” said Thate. “Our Baby’s Best Chance group will be having craft tables and a bake sale.” Thate said vendors will be coming from all over the Boundary area. “We’ll have everything from handmade wooden signs, chocolates, candy, soaps, hats, jewelry, tutu’s photo cards and shirts,” she said. “As well, we’ll have home based businesses such as Scentsy, Epicure, Steeped Tea, JK Apparel and so much more.” In addition, the ASE class at Selkirk College will be selling coffee and handmade Christmas crafts. The peer mentor program at BFISS help out the community by supporting new moms, making meals for families, fundraising for local families that need support, leading FASD presentations in school, and much more.

On the heels of a busy summer, Lisa Nicole, a Boundary native, released her fourth single, Do You Like That, to country radio across Canada and played festivals such as Rockin’ River Fest and the Calgary Stampede. She attended the CCMAs in Halifax in September, performing a showcase. As the first place winner of the Artist Development Project (ADP), Lisa Nicole will receive a song-writing trip to Nashville, and she is the recipient of a $15,000 scholarship to Coalition Music 10-week Artist Entrepreneur Program for 2016 in Toronto—including flights, accommodation and a per diem. This also includes recording two songs and radio tracking by Pitbull Radio Promotions for one song. “After so many years of working so hard on my career, I feel like my hard work is finally paying off. Winning the ADP is going to change a lot in my career for me,” Nicole said. Nicole was thrilled to discover that she was being nominated for both Female Vocalist of the Year, and also the Country Club Act of the Year at the B.C. Country Music Awards. Lisa performed at the 38th Annual BCCMA Award Show on Oct. 25 at The Hard Rock Casino in Coquitlam.

Christmas Arts and Craft Sale in the Park Another sure to be popular craft fair is the Christmas Arts and Craft Sale in the Park held at the Seniors’ Centre in City Park. The event, which goes Saturday, Nov. 7 from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m., is put on by the Loose Threads quilting group and is a fundraiser for the centre. “Whatever money we make goes back to the seniors’ centre because the majority of us are members,” said Karen Deitz of Loose Threads. “We’ll have quilting, knitting, baking, wooden products, and more. I’ll have homemade apple juice, jam and relish as well. Everything there will be homemade and local.” Deitz said there will be some different varieties of quilts and knitting. “Quilting is the main thing going on,” she said. “One lady makes fabric bowls. They’re really nice. You could have them for your keys or to throw on the wall. She actually made one of a halloween with a lid and everything.” This will be the second craft fair for the group. They also hosted a very successful fair in conjunction with the Park in the Park Car show in the summer. “It was really well attended,” said Deitz. “I though there were a couple of hundred people through.” Deitz said the feedback for the Christmas event for has been great and the fair is already full for vendors. “I’ve been filled up since July,” she said. “The response has been really good. Quilting has been popular for years. There’s more and more younger people picking it up.”

Submitted to the Gazette
Habitat for Humanity Southeast BC (HFHSEBC) is pleased to announce that Dale and J.D. Winn of Rock Creek will become the newest Habitat for Humanity partner family. The Winn family home was destroyed in the August wildfires and HFHSEBC will help fulfill their dream of rebuilding on familiar ground. The Winn family will be the first Habitat for Humanity partner family in the Rock Creek area. Habitat for Humanity is renowned for its volunteer response across Canada and our collective willingness to make a difference in our own communities. When the time comes to rebuild the Winn family home, another organization renowned for their volunteer response, Mennonite Disaster Services, has pledged their support to partner with HFHSEBC and the Rock Creek/ Westbridge Fire Needs Committee. HFHSEBC would like to acknowledge all the volunteers engaged in assisting the families recover from this disaster and are committed to helping their communities on the road to recovery. Bob Huff, executive director of HFHSEBC, said, “Every day for the past two months, people from the Boundary region have been volunteering and responding to the needs of the people devastated by the fires. In some ways, you could say that disasters bring out the best in people.”
Huff added, “The partnership with Mennonite Disaster Services and the Rock Creek/Westbridge Fire Needs Committee is about more than rebuilding destroyed homes, it’s about building hope.” At a ceremony held in Rock Creek on Oct. 23, the managers of Buy-Low Foods in Oliver, Grand Forks, Osoyoos and AG Foods in Osoyoos presented a cheque to HFHSEBC for $17,100 to assist with the wildfire recovery efforts. From Aug. 14 to Oct. 17, the four stores accepted donations from customers who gave generously at the checkouts at the four locations. “While the people of Rock Creek and Oliver have begun the long journey to rebuild after the recent fires, it is uplifting to see the generous contributions made to this campaign,” said Sam Corea, director, retail operations for Buy-Low Foods. HFHSEBC is an ideal organization to gather and deploy the funding, resources, skills and willpower necessary to assist with rebuilding after the wildfires. HFHSEBC invites the public to attend a fashion show and silent auction on Nov. 7, at the McArthur Centre in Greenwood, from 3 - 6 p.m. with the proceeds to be directed to rebuilding the Winn family home. To donate or volunteer, contact the HFHSEBC office. Habitat for Humanity Southeast BC is a taxexempt non-profit organization. You can find out more about how to get involved by calling Huff at 250.442.2722 or email: bob.huff@hfhsebc.org.

Pacific Abrasives upgrades to increase quality of slag

CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
The Grand Forks slag pile has been in the news recently after Pacific Abrasives, the company which processes and sells the slag, was told from their primary customer that the product was declining in quality. The slag is a byproduct of the smeltering process from Granby River Smelter that ran in the early 1900s. In 2014, the city earned $235,063 from slag. At $2.30 per short tonne of blended slag, they are removing about 100,000 tonnes per year. The city received a letter from Pacific Abrasives dated Sept. 22, 2015 which said in order for them to continue to carry out business by providing a quality product on a timely basis, a major upgrade to plant operations is required. In order to carry out the upgrades, Pacific Abrasives will need to borrow a substantial amount of funds and enter into a Mortgage of Lease with the City of Grand Forks and Community Futures. Council agreed unanimously to postpone both approving the Mortgage of Lease agreement and approving the city entering into a non-disturbance agreement with Community Futures. A letter from Pacific Abrasives (PA) to Sasha Bird, City of Grand Forks manager of development and engineering, stated that their only customer, CanAm Minerals, Inc., had advised them there is a noticeable and continuing deterioration over the past several years. “We’ve received a request from Granby River Mining Co. and Pacific Abrasives for them to enter into a Mortgage of Lease agreement,” said Bird to council. “Their one customer in the United States has been concerned about the quality of the product over the last few years. In order for Granby River Mining Co. or Pacific Abrasives to provide a better product they need to

have upgrades to their equipment. They approached Community Futures to secure funding for this. Along with that, they would require a mortgage of lease agreement.” In the letter, Steve Hagman, PA’s vice president and chief financial officer, wrote, “We can accomplish this with expansion and renovation of our storage capacity along with a significant improvement to the material sizing screen decks to produce accurate sizing of the material received from Granby River Mining Co.” Hagman said the changes would not only significantly improve the quality of the product but could also increase production by as much as 20 per cent. A letter to the city on the same day from PA stated that the mortgage of lease would be necessary in order to provide financing for plant upgrades at its operations in Grand Forks. PA has entered into an agreement with Community Futures to borrow up to $418,000. As part of the security being requested by Community Futures for the loan, PA has been requested to provide a collateral guarantee and a mortgage of interest in the lease. Allin addressed council and stated that they are looking at other issues with the slag pile such as remediation for the site for 50 years from now. “How do we ensure there is a process for funding this is 50 years time that doesn’t leave the burden on the taxpayer at this time?” he said. “How is the site going to look in 50 years? How can we make sure we can pass on that legacy to the community for the future to make sure there is a reserve fund in place for that remediation.” Councillor Ross asked whether council could meet with Premier Clark and Minister Bennett once again discuss the slag pile. “The premier and Mr. Bennett said there could be some avenue for us to get some funding,” she said. “Because really we’re
cleaning up a mess that was dumped there in the early 1900s. This is an opportune time for us to thank Premier Clark and Mr. Bennett and asking them as we move forward what they can do to partner with us.” Slag Pile/UBCM
Members of council and CAO Allin met with Premier Christy Clark and Bill Bennett, Minister for Energy and Mining, at UBCM regarding the slag pile and taxes imposed. Councillor Ross wrote in her report to council that she thought the meeting went extremely well. “CAO Allin brought forward the issue and reiterated the fundamental flaws in the tax that the province has imposed upon customers who are accessing the slag,” she said. “This will slow down the draw down on the slag pile. Premier Clark agreed that the tax made no sense and seemed to be on our side of the debate.” Ross explained to Clark and Bennett that the environmental implications and potential dangers of leaving the slag pile without further draw down on the pile. “It’s proximity to a relative pristine river (Granby) is a very real threat and photos showing the location of the pile in relation to the river were effective,” she said. “Both Bennett and Clark seemed to agree that this generation of citizens shouldn’t have to deal with errors and decisions made by previous generations; dumping slag along a river so close to a town and leaving our children with a toxic waste site.” Background
Grand Forks was once home to a massive smelter built by the Granby Smelting Co. The smelter opened in 1900 and grew to become the largest copper smelter in the British Empire. The Granby River, then known as the North Fork of the Kettle River, was dammed and a power plant constructed.
The smelter operated until 1919 when the world copper market plunged. The plant is gone, but the mountain of black slag (waste rock from the smelting process) remains. Slag, a vitreous residue, was a byproduct of the smelting process. At first, the slag was granulated and dumped along the river bank. Later, the substance was removed from the smelter in molten form and hauled outdoors for disposal. Two small locomotives pulled the molten slag on narrow tracks onto a mound of solidified slag and pour out. It solidified into a black, grainy material. Then in 1911 the slag was granulated again and brought by conveyor belts to the top of two large piles. For many years the slag piles were the visible remains of two decades of copper smelting in Grand Forks. By the time the smelter operation was closed down, the slag piles dwarfed the large buildings of the smelter itself. The slag was sold to Pacific Abrasives, an American company, beginning in 1971, and they produced abrasive materials for various purposes. Over the years the revenue from the sales went into the city’s general funds but the slag reserve bylaw of 1977 dedicated those revenues to community enhancement projects. Among those was the refurbishment of the old post office into City Hall, the building of the aquatic centre, the library, the fire hall and more. As per the slag reserve bylaw, the money may be spent on capital, including machinery and equipment. In 2002, the City of Grand Forks formed a lease extension, consolidation and eighth modification agreement with Pacific Abrasives and Supply Inc. The original lease agreement with Pacific Abrasives was signed in 1976 for 30 years. There was a 30-year renewal clause signed, which will expire in 2036.

Happy Halloween! Grand Forks resident Larry Jmaiff enjoys the view from his deck of Ward Lake, which is as full as it has ever been.

Ward Lake as healthy as ever CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
While both the Granby and Kettle Rivers are flowing very low, one nearby lake is doing quite well. Ward Lake, at the start of the North Fork, is at near-record size with plenty of water and plenty of waterfowl such as geese and ducks enjoying the plentiful water. Local resident Larry Jmaiff lives on the lake and has been there for 17 years. He said the lake is as high as he remembers it. “About five years ago there was nothing but bull rushes and grass growing here,� he told the Gazette. “All of a
sudden it was almost all dried out but then it kept coming back.� According to regional fisheries staff, Ward Lake is classified as unmanageable due to a private water allocation licence and associated pump intake at the north end. Graham Watt, coordinator of the Kettle River Watershed Management Plan, has a theory behind why the lake is so high. Watt did explain that he was not a hydro-biologist and is simply giving his opinion. “I have spoken to a number of people who know more than me,� he admitted. “When the river levels are low and we are in a drought, yet the lowlands are high, there’s something funny going

on.� Watt said that in the winter there was a lot of rain and rain on snow. “When you have this amount of precipitation in the winter time, the trees and shrubs and plants, they’re not transpiring (sending out) water into the atmosphere,� he said. “So in the winter if you get rain instead of snow, you get water pushing into the ground and running through the shallow ground water table and starting to fill up the springs and wetlands and things like that.� Watt said if you get snow in the winter it turns into runoff in the spring that runs into the river but less into the wetland.

The Grand Forks Secondary School (GFSS) senior girls volleyball team has racked up the mileage this season as they prepare for regional playoffs. The Wolves have played in tournaments at Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops, the Ogopogo Classic in Kelowna, and the Best of the West in Kelowna. Head coach Michelle LeHegarate said the team has improved throughout the season. “We were able to play Nakusp in the last tournament, which is one of the teams we need to beat at regionals in order to qualify for provincials and we managed to pull through for a win,” she said, “beating them

in two consecutive sets.” The Wolves played their first home playday on Oct. 6 and defeated Boundary Central from Midway, J.L. Crowe from Trail and Stanley Humphries from Castlegar. “Teamwork has come a long way and the girls are now focusing on the development of their individual skills,” said LeHegarate. GFSS has two more upcoming playdays: Nov. 4 in Castlegar and Nov. 18 at home. The regional play-downs are Nov. 20/21 in Elkford. “This team has all the athletic ability required to place well at regionals and advance to provincials,” she said. “As long as we can keep the drive and enthusiasm up we’ve got a chance at making it, which would be a first for GFSS.”

Small Business
In celebration of October – Small Business Month Communities can celebrate local businesses
O
wning a business is the goal of many would-be entrepreneurs. Being your own boss has certain perks, including making your own hours and not having to report to anyone but yourself. But owning a business is a lot of work, especially for new business owners trying to get their businesses off the ground. Local businesses face an uphill battle to survive, but there are many things residents can do to support these valuable additions to their communities. ➤ Shop locally. Shopping locally not only supports local businesses, but it also contributes to the local economy. Shopping locally keeps money in the community, which can benefit everyone. Shopping locally produces a trickle-down effect, as local businesses that are thriving may patronize other local businesses, and so on. This, in turn, helps grow other businesses in the community, making it a nicer place to live and work. ➤ Spread the word. Word-of-mouth advertising is effective. A respected member of the community who shares a good experience with a local business may propel others to patronize the business. Speak
Proud of our Small Businesses Small businesses are a critical component of and major contributor to the strength and vibrancy of our community. The City recognizes that small businesses are the back bone of not only the Canadian economy but also of Grand Forks. We are proud to honor entrepreneurship in our community.

up when you feel a business owner has provided an exceptional level of service. Recommend a company to friends and neighbours. You also may want to review a business via online rating websites. ➤ Attend grand openings. Each community is unique, and often the vibe of a community is defined by the businesses that call that community home. Attend grand openings to show you are invested in the quality and vitality of your community. When others see a business doing well, they may be more inclined to shop there as well. ➤Apply for work. Another way to support a local business is to work for one. Small local businesses employ millions of people across the country, and many foster great working environments. In addition, small businesses are known for their customer service, and employees often become experts in their products and services because of the hands-on experience they gain while working for small businesses. Supporting and celebrating local businesses can instill a sense of community pride and benefit the local economy in a myriad of ways.
B.C. Small Business Profile 2015
The Small Business Profile 2015 is available at: www.bcstats.gov.bc.ca www.resourcecentre. gov.bc.ca/ publications.html
There were approximately 382,600 small businesses operating in B.C. in 2014, representing about 98 per cent of all businesses in the province. Around four out of every five of these small businesses were micro-businesses with fewer than five employees. While the total of small businesses in B.C. slipped by 3.1 per cent between 2009 and 2014, this was primarily due to a reduction in the number of self-employed individuals. The number of small businesses with employees saw a boost of 5.8 per cent. ➤ Small Businesses Per Capita – B.C. ranked first in the country (tied with Saskatchewan) in terms of small businesses per capita in 2014, with 82.6 small businesses per 1,000 people. The national average was 70.9.

I came to Grand Forks in the fall of 1985 to work in the automotive industry. I was very taken with how friendly the people were and the beauty of the area and decided to make this my home. In May, 2008 I bought the building and Tomkat Automotive was born.

Intellectual Freedom and Censorship The American Library Association defines intellectual freedom as “the right of every individual to both seek and receive information from all points of view without restriction,” and censorship as “the suppression of ideas and information that certain persons—individuals, groups or government officials—find objectionable or dangerous.” At the library, we try as hard as we can to promote intellectual freedom and discourage censorship. The reason that libraries stand behind intellectual freedom is simple: it is the foundation of responsible democracy. If we expect people to self-govern and make good choices, they must be well-informed. As such, we strive to maintain the availability of information in our collection or online, and
z Check It Out CARI LYNN POSTNIKOFF
promote peoples’ opportunity to disseminate ideas. Many would-be censors come to the conclusion that some materials are so offensive that they should never be seen by anyone. However, it is up to individuals to self-select what they read, and not for others to determine that for them. So, as far as we can manage, you will not see censorship at the Grand Forks and District Public Library. Upcoming Programs

Rezansoff, Mae Doreen (Soviskov) May 24, 1927 – October 23, 2015 Although it is with profound sadness and loss that the family of Mae Rezansoff announce her peaceful passing from our world while in the company of her family, she has now been reunited with many other cherished family and friends. Mae was born in Arran, Saskatchewan on May 24, 1927. She moved with her parents to Grand Forks at the age of 9. She learned to play the guitar and enjoyed many a jam session with her father, Henry, who played the accordian, brother Hank who played the mouth organ, her mother who sang, younger brother Johnny who also played the accordion and on occasion her son who played the guitar. Many old Russian records remain of some of these jam sessions. At a young age she went to Oliver where she worked in the orchards and packing house. She stayed with the Pastor and Mrs. Howell and learned how to iron shirts to perfection. Over the course of her life she worked at various jobs that included cooking at a local restaurant, flagging on road construction projects, and looking after three children and a husband. She met her husband George (Garry) in 1946 and married in April of 1947.They moved to many locations in B.C. following her husband’s work in the mining industry. They finally settled in Grand Forks where they raised their three children. She enjoyed knitting and crocheting, and her daughters had a fine assortment of crocheted bathing suits and beautiful dresses! She also enjoyed gardening especially if you were doing the weeding, music, writing songs. She taught both daughters the art of canning, and Olivia would return to Calgary on the bus with a trunk filled with various jars of fruit and vegetables which I am sure weighed at least 250 lbs. Mae and her late husband Garry were involved and were members of the Royal Canadian Legion and worked on the Poppy campaign for approx 13 years until Garry passed. Her grandchildren were the love of her life. Always interested in what they were doing, giving advice when needed, and simply enjoying and loving them. She enjoyed a good game of canasta, and heaven help you if you cheated! Many a Saturday was spent with Mae and Mabel Faminoff beating Dana and George. Mae was unbelievably compassionate to everyone she crossed paths with. Her heart and her generosity knew no bounds. She devoted great amounts of time to caring for the ones she held close and even those she did not know too well. Due to failing health, she has resided in Hardy View Lodge for the past four years and made many a good friend there. We would like to thank Cynthia and all the great staff at Sunshine Manor for providing her friendship, fun, and wonderful care. Special thanks to Mabel Faminoff and Chris Fieber for their heartfelt prayers. She was most fond of Ward who was truly a strong support during her final days. She surely enjoyed John’s music sing-a-longs. Predeceased by her husband George (Garry) in 1995, brother Henry (Hank) in 2006. She is survived by her son Garry (Karen) of Kelowna, daughter Dana Novotny (George) of Grand Forks, daughter Olivia Swaney of Penticton. Grandchildren Jeremy Rezansoff (Janna), Kristy (Jamie) Needham, Jason Novotny all of Kelowna, Jessica Swaney, Kimberley Swaney of Penticton, and brother John (Iris) Soviskov of Penticton., two great-grandchildren Rylea Rae and Everlee Lou Needham. Truly a Christian and a beautiful person. A private celebration will be held at a future date.

Healthy Halloween tips and tricks for your children’s teeth
often the sugar touches the teeth, the more damage it can do to the tooth. Each nibble or sip of a sugary food or drink produces a 20 minute “acid attack.” The heavy consumption of sugary sweets is why the risk of cavities increases so much around holidays with candy-centered themes! Consider the following tips to enjoy Halloween and keep a healthy smile this season. • Have a game plan: Before you leave the house take a minute to talk to your kids about the evening and to discuss expectations. How long will you spend trick-or-treating? How much candy will be eaten when getting home? Will there be an amount of treats per day limit? • Use a small bag: One solution to eliminate waste and to reduce the amount of candy coming home is to use a smaller bag. • Switch Witch or candy buy back: Another idea is a midNovember visit from the “Switch Witch” who swaps remaining candy for something like a small toy or passes to a movie!
