Local reaction to Brown baggin’ it Trudeau cabinet

November’s Mayor’s Brown Bag Lunch cancelled due to Remembrance Day C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor

Kimberley Mayor Don McCormick has been brown bagging it once a month since his election almost a year ago — setting aside an hour and a half the second Wednesday of each month to talk with residents about what’s on their minds. McCormick, and CAO Scott Sommerville take questions and answer them to the best of their abilities right on the spot. The mayor says there is still plenty of enthusiasm at the lunches. “About half of the folks are new each time,” he told Council last week. “People know they will be heard. I continue to be amazed at the discussion. It’s really interesting.” Wednesday, November 11 would have been the regular brown bag lunch, but due to the Remembrance Day holiday, it will not be held. The next Brown Bag Lunch is Wednesday, December 9th from noon-1:30 in the Council Chamber at City Hall.

TRE VOR CR AWLEY

Reactions are coming in to the announcement of the 30-member cabinet unveiled by incoming Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Wednesday. Three of the new Cabinet ministers are representing ridings in B.C.— Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould (Vancouver Granville), Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan (Vancouver South) and Carla Qualtrough (Delta). Don Johnston, the Liberal Party candidate for the Kootenay Columbia riding, says he is impressed with the diversity of the team.

Last shift at Canal Flats C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor

Stetski in front of Parliament in Ottawa.

Today marked the last shift for some 65 workers and nine staff members at the CanFor owned Canal Flats saw mill. CanFor announced the closure on September 9 in Canal Flats, stating that recent downturns in the oil and gas and lumber markets that the mill served, combined with a lack of economically available fibre for the mill, had brought operating losses the company could no longer sustain. At the beginning of 2015, the mill had employed approximately 125 people, but 81 of

those were laid off in May when the mill went to one shift in May. This closure does have an affect on Kimberley and Cranbrook, said Mayor Don McCormick. “Of the people that worked there, only 44 per cent actually lived in Canal Flats,” McCormick told the Bulletin at the time of the layoffs. “It very quietly employed people from Kimberley, about 16 per cent of the workforce.” A further 30 per cent lived in Cranbrook, McCormick said. “It highlights that this is a regional economy and any economic development needs a regional perspective.”

ICU expansion in final phase of construction For the Townsman

Interior Health is beginning the final phase of construction of the new intensive care unit, as well as major electrical upgrades, to East Kootenay Regional Hospital (EKRH) in Cranbrook. Final finishing of the interior is underway and commissioning of all the intensive care unit (ICU) systems is in progress. Major electrical work has all been installed and final commissioning is in progress. The new electrical system will improve the power supply to the entire hospital, optimize the electrical system performance and allow capacity to expand for future power needs. The electrical infrastructure will be located in the basement of the new addition. Work on the exterior paving and landscaping is already finished, with some minor remediation work to take place in the spring to ensure

plants and grass are fully established. Interior Health said connection of the existing hospital to the new electrical system will continue through the fall of 2015 and winter of 2016. The approximate total project cost of the redevelopment project at EKRH is $20 million. Funding is provided by the Province, Kootenay East Regional Hospital District and through East Kootenay Foundation for Health and East Kootenay auxiliaries, which are contributing towards the clinical equipment. Training of staff will begin in late 2015 and continue through the winter to ensure a smooth transition of patients into the new unit. Construction-related activity will continue on site from approximately 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. throughout the fall/winter, and the public can expect periodic interruptions to normal traffic patterns during this time.

The expansion of the ICU at the Kootenay East Regional Hospital is on pace to be completed by mid-2016. Interior Health is working with the project contractor to minimize these impacts and appreciates the ongoing patience of local residents and visitors to the hospital as these major improvements to EKRH move forward. Pediatric Redevelopment Last October, Interior Health announced the creation of a new pediatric unit for the hospi-

tal which would be based in the current ICU space once the new ICU is completed. The Pediatric Redevelopment is separate from the ICU/ Electrical Redevelopment project. The estimated cost of this redevelopment is approximately $750,000 with design work expected to start within the next several months. Currently, pediatric and maternity/neo-na-

tal services are located on separate floors of the hospital. While the full scope of the project providing renovated spaces for pediatrics is yet to be complete, planning has started with a goal to create an enhanced environment for these young patients, their families, and the staff and physicians providing care. The new pediatric unit will be adjacent to the existing ma-

ternity/neo-natal unit, bringing all of these services into one area of EKRH. ICU Equipment Campaign To date, approximately $450,000 has been raised by the Cranbrook Health Care Auxiliary, $90,000 from the Kimberley Health Care Auxiliary and $50,000 from the Invermere Health Care Auxiliary. IHA noted that efforts to

raise funds for new ICU equipment are steadily moving closer to the $1 million total goal. East Kootenay Foundation for Health continues to focus its efforts on this important work and expects to see the fundraising goal achieved shortly.

this year’s EKFH Starlite Campaign. The annual lighting of stars takes place on November 27; however many longtime supporters of the foundation are dropping

by with generous donations to ensure the stars light up. One such supporter of the EKFH initiative is Cornelius Murphy of Cranbrook Pest Control.

“We are proud to support EKFH in many of their fundraising campaigns,” shares Murphy. “Our company makes an annual gift as our way of thanking the foundation for its efforts in raising much-needed funds for hospitals and health care facilities in the East Kootenay.” A gift to the Starlite Campaign no matter how big or small makes a significant difference in the quality of health care available to those living in the East Kootenay.

The stars take on different meanings for those who give… a grateful patient for services received, a cheerful holiday greeting, honouring a loved one and so much more. Interested in making a donation – it very easy to give just drop by your local hospital or health care facility, drop by the EKFH office, donate on-line at www. ekfh.ca or simply send through the mail to EKFH, 13 24th Ave N, Cranbrook, BC V1C 3H9.

Concert by The Selkirk Choirs and the Kimberley Community Choir John Allen For the Bulletin

On Wednesday November 4, 2015, two Selkirk choirs and the Community Choir held a joint concert. The Selkirk Jazz Group led off the concert at McKim with “The Longest Time”, accapella, featuring Courtney Crawford and Drew Lyall; they also sang “Java Jive” (I love coffee, I love tea…), with piano and guitar. The Director was of course Sven Heyde. The Kimberley Community Choir, directed by Laurel, Jeff playing piano, followed with “We Will Be Free”, an Oscar Peterson tune. Next the 33 member Selkirk Choir sang the Beatles “Let it Be”, with solo by Maia Greiner. Definitely not like The Beatles imagined this tune. Next was a beautiful Hebrew blessing “Sim Shalom” (“Grant Peace”). Finally the choir rocked out on “Signed Sealed Delivered”. The combined choirs finished up the evening with the gospel song “Hush” (Hush, Hush, Somebody’s calling my name.); Arissa Tuffolo sang a lovely solo. The final number of the evening was Sven on the bongo. No actually, he played the bongo drum while the full choir sang the South African hymn Siyahamba (We are marching.) So the audience marched out, very satisfied with a wonderfully varied and presented evening. It’s not the first time the two choirs have sung together; they just keep getting better. Both choirs have concerts coming up in December; watch for news in the Bulletin.

RCMP warn of continuing CRA scam For the Bulletin

The taxpayer is often threatened with court charges, jail or deportation. This scam has been successful because the caller is very aggressive, and if hung up on, will continually call back. Due to the advancement in computer technology/hacking, the calls are sometimes being routed through systems that can display any phone number the scammer chooses, which in recent cases, has been the local RCMP Detachment phone number, from the area where the call is re-

Cranbrook RCMP want to inform the public of an ongoing scam with regard to Canada Revenue Agency. The caller claims to be from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). This scam is becoming a growing concern for the RCMP in British Columbia as we are receiving numerous complaints daily and the numbers keep growing. Knowing exactly what to do should it happen to you is very important to prevent identity and financial theft.

Public Notice is hereby given that the Municipal Council of the Corporation of the City of Cranbrook is considering adopting “City of Cranbrook Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 3839, 2015”. The proposed amendment to the M-2, Light Industrial Zone in “Cranbrook Zoning Bylaw No. 3737, 2012” will add “Dwelling unit accessory to a permitted use” specific to the subject property. Additional regulations being added to the zone include: • amending the density provisions to only allow one (1) dwelling unit;

High hopes for new cabinet From page 1 “Although there are lots of people who are new to the cabinet that are also new to the political world, they’re also incredibly accomplished individuals in their other lives before they came into the political realm, so I think it’s one of the most talented, ambitious cabinets that I’ve seen in my lifetime,” Johnston said. The cabinet has gender parity—15 men and 15 women who have taken on the various portfolios and responsibilities. New ministers include political rookies and veterans, while the diversity of the cabinet postings feature a muslim minister, an Inuit

minister and an aboriginal minister. Johnston singled out praise for the selection of Wilson-Raybould as the Minister of Justice. “She’s a highly accomplished lawyer in and of her own right and an accomplished Crown prosecutor who also brings great political leadership skills because she was a regional chief with the Assembly of First Nations,” Johnston said, “so she brings a really different personal background to the table as we begin to try to understand how we’re going to begin to deal with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission report and the inquiry into murdered indigenous women.”

Kootenay-Columbia NDP MP Wayne Stetski was also in the nation’s capital to be officially sworn is as the region’s federal representative. Stetski said Trudeau’s team is well experienced in their areas of responsibility and that he plans to hold the government accountable. “Our job as Members of the Opposition is to hold Prime Minister Trudeau and his Cabinet accountable to deliver on all of the promises they made to Canadians during this election,” Stetski said. “I will do that in a spirit of cooperation while ensuring that I represent the interests of the people of Kootenay Columbia.”

• adding regulations to require the dwelling unit be designed and constructed as an integral part of the principal building; and limiting the dwelling unit gross floor area to 93 m2 in size. The purpose of the proposed Zoning Amendment is to legitimize an additional dwelling unit which has been constructed in the building located on the subject property. The subject property is legally described as Lot 1, District Lot 29 Kootenay District Plan 12325, located at 800 Industrial Road #2 as shown on the reference map below: ”

Election

Opinion/NEWS Letters to the Editor

I thought that Joyce Green’s article “Did Canadians get what they voted for?” (Townsman, Nov. 4) was excellent. A country totally dominated by a party opposed by 70 per cent of the population cannot claim to be a real democracy.

And yet that is what Canada faces! Under our present “First past the Post” system and in a four-party race, it is possible for one party with less than 30 per cent of the national vote to occupy 100 per cent of the seats in Parliament. Obviously a dangerous

situation in need of correction. Bud Abbott Cranbrook

The Fire Chief for the Day contest winners were Connor Townsend and Jaiden McCrory, who got to be fire chiefs on Nov. 6. The enthusiastic eight year olds attend grade three at Amy Woodland Elementary School. Cranbrook firefighters spent time in their classrooms, answering questions and promoting fire safety. Jaiden and Connor also got to travel to McDonald’s for lunch in the fire truck.

Missile test off Californian coast creates streaking light across sky ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN DIEGO - The U.S. Navy fired an unarmed missile from a submarine off the coast of Southern California on Saturday, creating a bright light that streaked across the state and was visible as far away as Nevada and Arizona. A Navy spokesman told The San Diego Union-Tribune that the Navy Strategic Systems Programs conducted the missile test at sea Saturday from the USS Kentucky, a ballistic missile submarine. Cmdr. Ryan Perry said the launches are conducted on a frequent basis to ensure the continued reliability of the system and that information about such test launches is classi-

fied prior to the launch. The lack of information about the streak of light around sunset led to a flurry of calls to law enforcement agencies and lit up social media as people posted photos and video of the celestial sight. Julien Solomita just happened to be shooting some video footage when his group saw something odd in the sky. “It was very wild watching this in the sky,” he said in an email to The Associated Press. “I can’t really say what I thought it was because I’ve never experienced anything remotely close to it.” It wasn’t clear whether the test was related to the rerouting of night-

time flights into and out of Los Angeles International Airport because of an active military airspace from Friday to Nov. 12. Flights usually arrive and depart over the ocean from midnight to 6:30 a.m. to minimize noise, but they will have to go over communities east of the airport. A message seeking comment from the Federal Aviation Administration hasn’t been returned. The test was conducted in the Pacific Test Range, a vast area northwest of Los Angeles where the Navy periodically test-fires Tomahawk and Standard cruise missiles from surface ships and submarines.

From spoiling a nice walk, to telling tall tales, golf is simply a frustrating game

haven’t seen you up on the golf course lately,” said the young woman when we encountered one another in the Mall the other day. “You playing somewhere else?” I recognized her as an ex-student of mine and, doing the necessary math, I calculated that she wasn’t all that young. I couldn’t remember her name but I am used to that; I have trouble with my own sometimes. But the golf question bothered me; I don’t play golf; I have only ventured on to golf courses a few times and on each occasion I just grew frustrated. Swish/expletive! It all seemed to be so pointless. As someone wise once said, ‘It’s just a nice walk spoiled.’ I don’t think that that was Confucius; probably somebody smarter, like Dame Laura Davies. I have a few friends who have ventured timorously into the mad world of golf and actually escaped still wearing ordinary clothes; my buddy Bill, for example. Bill Purtzer, who is certainly no relation of the famous Tom Purtzer, has a golf club that looks like a cross between a Stone Age club and an assegai. It was probably modelled on the weapon used by Saint George when he murdered that dragon. Anyway, Bill told me that one day he took that club and a half dozen golf balls to the hut up on

Lakit look-out for some practice swings. He’s a frail looking guy so I wonder if he had employed his son Little Bill to carry that club for him, and maybe the balls too. Now, Bill can talk bull-tweety at times but he claims that one of the balls he managed to hit made a sonic boom as it passed over Fort Steele and disappeared. He also claims that a friend from PoCo (Port Coquitlam-almost-on-sea) saw an article in the local paper about a woman finding what she thought was a miniature space craft in her window box Peter and her husband, being Warland the cautious type, sprayed it with Raid, just in case there were tiny space invaders in it, just like in that story we read in school years ago. I wonder how many golfers have yarns like that to regale their guests. I bet Ken Green didn’t find it necessary. My lovely wife certainly didn’t. She was extremely reticent about her deeds on ‘The Links’. She was no Holly Sonders, that’s for sure; more of a Whirling Dervish in Blue Jeans. Several players claimed that they damaged their backs whilst ducking at Tee-off time. I have a rich cousin who lives in Devon in England but he has gone insane. He now travels to France and even to Florida in

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

order to waste his money on golf; he has to; he is the president of the local golf and country club and it is expected of him. He tells me that golf in France has taught him some extraordinary French expressions which startle even Parisians. In Florida, he claims, they’ve got him into clothing that can only be described as ‘dorky’. He even says that he also carries a special club when in Miami to deal with alligators, although most Americans that he encounters solve such reptilian encounters with the guns that they normally carry. I told my cousin that, should he venture into the wilds of The Kootenays for a chukkar or two, he’d only need mosquito spray and, maybe, a bear banger. His dorky clothes would fit right in. Jake Edwards (no real relative of the famed Danny Edwards), a highly imaginative acquaintance from Invermere, says that whilst he was helping his girl-friend get it right as she teed-off up on a course near Fairmont, the fly of his pants became entangled with the zip on the back of her skirt and so, slightly embarrassed, the pair of them had to try a swing, back up, try again, back up and so on until they were behind the cub-house where, he claims, the cook threw a bucket of cold water over them. But there again, golfers are not noted for the veracity of their claims, are they?

Ice escape Tigers but can’t cheat Hurricanes Kootenay Ice score late comeback win in OT against Medicine Hat; fall late in regulation to Lethbridge

Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor

The Kootenay Ice managed to cheat defeat once this weekend, but after clawing a 4-3 overtime victory from the Medicine Hat Tigers Friday night at Western Financial Place, it was the Lethbridge Hurricanes scoring with 34 seconds remaining in regulation to steal a 3-2 triumph Saturday. While Saturday’s collapse came too late in the equation for the Ice to rebound, Friday night at home proved a different story. Carrying a 2-0 lead into the final period of play, the Ice were outshot 21-7 in the final 20 minutes of regulation, eventually falling behind the Tigers 3-2 before birthday and captain Luke Philp came to the rescue. With 55 seconds remaining on the clock, Philp found winger River Beattie who managed to sneak the puck past Tigers goaltender Austin Lotz to tie the game and force overtime. From there, the 20-year-old Ice captain took control. It was his party and he was going to do what he wanted. As time whittled away in overtime, the native of Canmore, Alta., made a power move towards the net, beating one Tigers defender before jamming the puck home past Lotz, blowing out the candles on a successful birthday outing. “We played really well the first two periods and to come out and have a third [period] like

that, we have to work on that for sure,” Philp said Friday. “Our goaltender, again, he’s huge for us every night. He stands on his head and he’s one of the best goalies in the league. We owe that game to him.”

Wyatt Hoflin certainly was deserving of plenty of credit Friday night. Not only did he face 21 shots in the third period, but by the time Philp’s overtime winner crossed the line, the 20-year-old Hoflin had turned aside 40 pucks, earning his 50th career WHL victory. Hoflin withstood a strong Tigers push, that featured a mind-spinning number of chances courtesy the visitors’ top line of left wing Mark Rassell, centre Steven Owre and right wing Alex Mowbray. Ultimately, it was the veteran trio doing all the damage as Mowbray, Owre and Rassell all scored in unanswered sequence over a span of less than 10 minutes. “It was disappointing the way we played int he third period,” said Luke Pierce head coach of the Kootenay Ice, Friday night. “Got to give them credit at the end, -- a resilient effort by those guys to tie it up. To be honest, I was a little bit surprised, actually. “We found a way to

win it. “But I thought our third period was unacceptable.” The opening 40 minutes seemingly saw a different Kootenay Ice squad take to the ice. The hosts opened the scoring 11:52 into the first period after right wing Austin Wellsby took advantage of a broken play inside the Tigers blueline before hitting a streaking Tanner Lishchynsky with a pass. The 20-year-old defenceman drove the net hard before feeding Matt Alfaro at the back door. The Calgary native had nothing left to do but deposit the net past a helpless Lotz and the Ice led 1-0 after 20 minutes. A highlight of the weekend came in the second period Friday as rookie defenceman Dallas Hines put his team ahead 2-0 by hammering home is first-career WHL goal. Hines, a native of Marwayne, Alta., took a pass from fellow rookie Noah Philp and buried his head, unleashing a heavy slap shot from the point that found a hole in Lotz. “It was an awesome feeling to get the monkey off my back and get my first one in the WHL,” Hines said Friday. In his rookie season, the 17-year-old defenceman has been in and out of the lineup, playing 13 of his team’s 19 games to date. But that hasn’t kept him from making positive strides. “He doesn’t get down on himself, even being out of the lineup, he keeps a positive attitude and that’s really important,” Pierce said of Hines. “We’ve got eight defencemen right now and a couple of guys are going to have to sit. They have to take the right approach and stay positive. Dallas understood that and I thought he was good [Friday].” Hines not only finished Friday night with his first goal, he also added an assist on Beattie’s game-tying effort to round out the first multipoint game of his young WHL career. While there was reason to celebrate Friday,

Ice goaltender Wyatt Hoflin battles through traffic from Tigers forward Alex Mowbray (#24) and Ice defenceman Tanner Lishchynsky (#3) Friday night. Hoflin was stellar in backstopping the Ice to an overtime win, collecting his 50th career WHL victory. the following night in Lethbridge provided much less glee for the Ice. After a scoreless first period, Ryan Vandervlis opened the scoring for the host Hurricanes before import Roman Dymacek replied with a laser beam to tie the game 1-1 in the second period. Wellsby continued his prowess, drawing a penalty shot that he cashed in on to give his team a 2-1 lead after 40 minutes. Then the cursed third period. With 6:06 to go in regulation, Hurricanes defenceman Andrew Nielsen knotted the game 2-2 before veteran pest Ryley Lindgren put the dagger in the heart, scoring with 34 seconds left in regulation to boost Lethbridge to a 3-2 victory. Former Ice goaltender Jayden Sittler was once again a thorn, turning aside 27 of 29 shots for the win. At the other end, rookie Declan Hobbs earned the start and was sharp, earning second-star honours as he made 29 saves.

pearance since Oct. 7 at Saskatoon where he sustained the injury, subsequently missing 11 games… While Hines registered the first points of his career, LW Jared Legien tallied his first point of the season -- an assist on Hines’ goal Fri-

day night. The 17-yearold native of Pilot Butte, Sask., is without a goal in 31 career WHL games… The penalty shot goal from Wellsby was the first penalty shot goal from an Ice player since Richard Hamula scored Nov. 8, 2000…

HOROSCOPES by Jacqueline Bigar

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Have an important one-on-one conversation. Sensitivity remains key to your well-being as well as the other party’s. Be willing to look at what is bothering you. The unpredictable marks your style as of late. You are likely to do something spontaneous today. Tonight: Stay open. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Others appear to be quite strong-willed and determined to have their way. Unexpected insights occur because of what is going on around you. You’ll hear some very different opinions from someone you consider to be a bit off-the-wall. Tonight: Sort through invitations. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You will throw yourself into your work or a project. A friend suddenly could show up and seek your company. You enjoy this person, but you might find it difficult to incorporate him or her into your plans. Postpone any lengthy interpersonal exchanges. Tonight: Off to the gym.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Your creativity opens you up to a new environment full of possibilities. Though you might want to stay where you are and continue on your present path, don’t hesitate to enrich your life by opening up to new ideas. Tonight: Pretend that it isn’t Monday. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Communication forces thought and perhaps a wild action or two. You might find yourself breaking past a previous assumption. You will witness a better understanding evolve with a key person. Consider staying closer to home in the next few days. Tonight: Where you can relax. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your sense of direction and your long-term goals need to conform to your budget. You could feel out of sync with a situation that develops suddenly.

Tundra

You could be overly cautious of a money matter. Curb any need to possess someone else or to show off. Stay centered when dealing with the unexpected. How you handle yourself will be important, as others are likely to observe and judge. Tonight: In the whirlwind of the moment. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You have more dynamic energy than you realize. Your flexibility comes out when you feel as good as you do. Handle an important matter privately; you will be more effective as a result. Others who are involved will feel more comfortable this way. Tonight: Be spontaneous. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Understand that others might not get where you are coming from right away. Even though you will chime with a group concern, there appears to be an element that is hidden or that you are not sharing. Be as open as possible. Tonight: Where the crowds are. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You know what you want, yet others might not want to go

along with your ideas. You have the choice of taking the lead or flying solo. You will make the right call, as you know the goal. You baffle others when you are this direct. Tonight: At a favorite place with a friend. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Make the necessary calls to get more information. Your final conclusion might be very different from what you thought it would be. Take the lead in a project, and you’ll be much happier as a result. The task might be more complicated than you think. Tonight: Relax at home. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) A partner clearly has a say in the events about to take place. You might want to have a discussion with this person, but you don’t want him or her to dominate the talk. Remember that he or she can’t control you, and claim your power. Tonight: Fun for two!

Rhymes with Orange

By Hillary B. Price

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: An old flirtation recently resurfaced in my life, and we’ve enjoyed getting reacquainted. There’s even a possibility of a long-term relationship. We are both in our 60s, so a late-in-life romance is fun and comforting. The problem is, I accidentally discovered his interest in videos of pubescent girls, around 11 or 12 years old. He told me to check a travel video on his computer, and I was shocked to see his viewing history -it also included adult fetish-type imagery. The kid videos had creepy comments from viewers about the young girls’ feet. When I told him that anyone could stumble upon his viewing history, he was embarrassed but then said, “I don’t see anything wrong with it.” Annie, I’m not too concerned about the adult fetish content, but kids? We were at the beach once and when a little girl in her wet bathing suit walked into our beachside cafe, he was transfixed, staring at her. I asked him a carefully worded question, saying, “Does any part of your brain tell you that is a child?” He thought for a second and then said, “No.” He also ogles teenage girls, especially if they are wearing “sexy” shoes. This is troubling to me. Also, our sex life is peculiar. We make out furiously, but have never been able to consummate our relationship due to his erectile dysfunction. I have to wonder if he is capable of relating to an age-appropriate woman. He is divorced with two grown children and has an 8-year-old granddaughter. -- Sad and Worried Dear Sad: Please reconsider this relationship. Your creepy boyfriend sounds like a pedophile with a foot fetish. If his sexual interest is underage girls with sexy shoes, your bedroom relationship is doomed. Some of those videos may be illegal to own, and if he has an 8-year-old granddaughter, we would worry for her safety. If you know the child’s parents, please inform them that Grandpa has some inappropriate ideas about young girls, so that they can protect her in case Grandpa ever decides to act on his sexual impulses. Dear Annie: I am a 17-year-old female. I have been struggling with depression since I was young. I have had traumatic events happen in my life. Both of my parents died before I was 13. My mother was abusive and my father had to be both mother and father to me. I also have a younger brother. I currently live in foster care. I have recently wanted to learn more about my past. I’ve been told I should move on and not dwell on what I can’t change. But I have a lot of questions and some guilt about how I handled things when I was younger. Am I doing the right thing by pursuing this or am I just hurting myself? -- Battle with Wanting to Know More Dear Battle: We think you deserve to know the truth. But knowing about your past involves the bad as well as the good. Would it be hurtful? Perhaps. You can’t make amends for past mistakes if you are unaware of them. But if you had an abusive mother, your behavior was in response to hers, and you may be feeling guilt for something that is not your fault. Also, please look into counseling to help you sort through any negative feelings that surface.

Obituaries

Orphee Williams passed away in her own suite surrounded by family and loved ones at Garden View Lodge in Kimberly, BC on October 25, 2015. She was born in Dauphin Manitoba on January 3rd, 1931. She grew up on a farm outside of Dauphin, riding horses and learning to hunt big game with her father. Orphee was an amazing hunter, known for her skill and love for the outdoors. She leaves behind her 3 daughters Richeal (Ralph) Tweten, Corrine (Rodney) Jerke, Ashelyn (Derek) Redman, son Edwin (Norma) Williams, dearest friend Penny (Colm) Covenden, 14 grandchildren, 8 great grandchildren, and her sister Margarite. She is predeceased by her husband Richard â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dickâ&#x20AC;? Watson Williams, her father Reville Ashe, her mother Jeanne Ashe (nee Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Aoust ), her sister Bernice, and her brother Gerald (Mary) Ashe. Orphee met her husband of 63 years â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dickâ&#x20AC;? Richard Williams in Wasagaming Beach, Manitoba. Orphee and Dick were each otherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best friends, hunting companions, outdoor enthusiasts and courageous parents.

Ardith (Archie) Elaine Bunn (nee Hood) February 23, 1946 - November 3, 2015

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Archie Bunn, on Nov. 3, 2015 at the age of 69. She passed peacefully in North Okanagan Hospice in Vernon, BC. She was a caring and loving wife, mother, friend, aunt, grandmother, nurse, and volunteer. Archie is survived by her husband of 44 years, David, her daughters Andrea and Robyn, her grandchildren Eva, Elliott, Mischa, Marlowe, Noah, Sacha, and Luca, as well as her sister Wanda, and numerous nieces and nephews. She was a dedicated nurse for 47 years, 22 of those at Vernon Jubilee Hospital. She will be missed by her family and many friends. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the North Okanagan Hospice Society or Pancreatic Cancer Canada. Vigil prayers will be held at St. James Catholic Church on Monday November 9, 2015 at 7 PM. A requiem mass will follow at 11:30 AM on Tuesday November, 10, 2015. Reception to follow.

Orphee was an amazing cook and known for her wonderful roast beef dinners, deep-fried oysters and New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eve clam chowder. She willingly cooked for hunting crews and was known as a wonderful hostess enjoying everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s company who came to hunt. She appreciated all things in nature and had a tale of caution to tell from wildlife encountered on her many horsebackriding or hunting adventures. Orphee took time to teach every grandchild and interested visitor to groom, ride and care for the horses. Her passion for horses was shared by Dick, and the two of them spent their 24 years of retirement living in BC, raising colts, riding almost daily, helping drive herds of cattle or hunting on horseback. The last few years they resided at Garden View Lodge in Kimberly but drove to their cabin each weekend to be closer to nature. Orphee was also known for her keen sight and hearing. She never missed sighting game, noticing bird songs or the chatter of squirrels calling her to fill the feeders. Orphee enjoyed years of swimming at the lake with family, and was known to be seen wearing her cowboy boots and bathing suit as she swam the horses on hot summer days. She had an endearing graciousness and celebrative spirited nature that welcomed many friends and family over the years as she hosted amazing dinners, birthday suppers and special occasions. Orphee â&#x20AC;&#x153;Grandmaâ&#x20AC;? will be greatly missed by her family. She had a spirit for adventure, loved a good evening of visiting and was always willing to join in celebrations. Her special greeting for the family at New Years will be missed. All of her grandchildren knew her as Grandma OJ, and she held a special place in her heart for each of them. As a family, we feel blessed to have had Orphee in our lives.

B.C. documents on Highway of Tears open wounds as inquiry looms Dirk Meissner Canadian Press

VICTORIA - The small British Columbia Cheslatta Carrier Nation has a decades-long anguished relationship with Highway 16, or the so-called Highway of Tears. Five people from the community of less than 350 near Burns Lake in central B.C. have disappeared along the route, including an entire family of four, says Chief Corrina Leween. At least 18 women went missing or were murdered along Highway 16 and the adjacent Highways 97 and 5 since the 1970s. Most cases remain unsolved, though investigators don’t believe a single killer is responsible. The sorrow deepened recently with a damning report over deleted Transportation Ministry emails about the highway and its missing. Transportation Minister Todd Stone has said he agrees with the opinions of some locals that a shuttle bus service along the route isn’t practical. However, the Opposition New Democrats say recently released documents contradict Stone and highlight the concerns of local officials who say a bus service should be considered. The controversy could be swept up in a call by the federal Liberal government for an inquiry into Canada’s murdered and missing

women. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau promised the inquiry during the election campaign. “I would expect that because a number of women have gone missing, and or have been known to have been murdered along Highway 16, that Highway 16 will figure in the national inquiry,” said Stone. “Our government has been on the record for quite some time in supporting a national inquiry.” B.C.’s Attorney General Suzanne Anton said she also expects an inquiry would focus on the highway. “I’m not trying to second-guess the federal inquiry, but there probably will be an aspect about the north all across the country,” she said. An RCMP report last year stated nearly 1,200 aboriginal women were murdered or went missing between 1980 and 2012. Highway 16 stretches more than 700 kilometres between Prince George and Prince Rupert. It follows rivers and mountains and connects remote communities. Its route is dark, lonely and blood stained. “Within (our) community, we have had an entire family that went missing, the Jack family,” said Leween. “One of our elders is missing.” Casimel Jack, 70, was last seen a decade ago, walking along a road

that connects to Highway 16 south of Burns Lake. He was hunting and carrying a rifle when he disappeared Sept. 18, 2005. Ronald Jack, his wife, Doreen, and their two sons, Russell, 9, and Ryan, 4, vanished Aug. 1, 1989. The last anybody heard from the family was when Ronald called a family member from a Prince George pub to say he and his wife found jobs. “They just simply disappeared. Mom, dad and the two boys,” Leween said. She said successive B.C. governments have refused to move on First Nations’ requests to provide a regional transportation network. Leween described government consultations attempts as sophisticated stalling tactics. “I, as a leader, don’t feel the government is doing enough to addresses the issue,” she said. Leween rejected Stone’s claim that leaders across the north agree a large-scale transit service won’t

work. “It’s absolutely untrue,” she said. “The bus is desperately needed in our area. I go to Prince George quite often to meetings and I see the young women hitchhiking on that highway. It’s needed.” Stone said the government is looking to develop shorter transportation connections between communities, but a region-wide transportation service is not workable. “It’s difficult for many folks to comprehend, myself included, how a scheduled shuttle bus service across an 800 kilometre stretch of highway that’s very sparsely populated would meet the needs of people who live along the highway.” Stone said his ministry is holding a transportation symposium in Smithers Nov. 24 to discuss practical, affordable and sustainable solutions for communities along Highway 16.

Opposition New Democrat Jennifer Rice, whose North Coast riding includes a section of Highway 16, said she has not been invited to the symposium but plans to attend. “I’ve been here (in Victoria) two years, and I’ve been asking this question numerous times around improving the transportation and safety along Highway 16, and I’ve been shrugged off and told basically to move on and get a new idea,” she said. Rice said two years ago when she accidentally locked herself out of her car on a stretch of the highway she felt the chill of being alone in the middle of nowhere. “I was in a pull out, and I had no cell service and I was the only one there,” she said. “I had just come back from Victoria and I had been asking questions about the Highway of Tears. Then this happened to me. I felt extremely vulnerable.

Mulcair lauds NDP election results in B.C. C anadian Press

VANCOUVER - Tom Mulcair says he’s proud of the NDP’s performance in British Columbia during last month’s federal election despite the party’s disappointing national showing.

The New Democrat leader says while the Canada-wide campaign experienced lots of ups and downs, in B.C. it was mostly ups. On the West Coast the party managed to increase its seat count from 12 to 14.

But worse-than-expected national results saw the NDP’s overall presence in Ottawa collapse from 103 to 44 MPs. Mulcair was in Vancouver to deliver the keynote address at the provincial NDP’s annual convention.
