Seniors in Enderby will soon have access to more than 30 units of new affordable rental homes to allow them to age in place safely and comfortably. Following a Request for Proposals, the B.C. government has selected the Enderby Seniors Housing Society as the successful proponent for a new housing project that will provide 36 units of seniors’ housing. The project will allow more seniors to benefit from affordable housing and live independently in the community. “We are thrilled to once Peter Gilowski again partner with the province to create much needed housing for seniors in Enderby and area,” said Peter Gilowski, society president. “We are eager to get started on the construction process and look forward to expanding Enderby Memorial Terrace with the completion of the second phase.” The society is also planning to provide support services to its tenants, including meals, light housekeeping and laundry service. The new units will be added to the existing 15-unit building the society operates, Enderby Memorial Terrace, on Granville Avenue. This expansion will bring the total number of affordable homes for seniors in the development to 51. The province will provide the land for the expansion. BC Housing and the Society will work together to fully develop the plan for construction. “Our seniors’ population is growing, and projects like these help seniors remain independent and active members of the community,” said Greg Kyllo, Shuswap MLA. “I would like to acknowledge Barry Fawcett, Peter Gilowski and the Enderby Seniors Housing Society for their work in serving the seniors in our community.”

One arrest in multiple poppy fund thefts ROGER KNOX Morning Star Staff
One arrest has been made in connection with a theft of a Royal Canadian Legion poppy donation tin from a Vernon business. However, Vernon RCMP are looking for a suspect or suspects in connection with two other similar incidents. A poppy donation box was stolen from Bosley’s by Pet Valu in The Shops at Polson Park Mall on Nov. 2. A man was caught on surveillance camera stealing the box which contained poppies and a donation tin. A suspect was arrested Friday. “We primarily used the surveillance video to help identify the suspect,” said Vernon RCMP Const.
Jocelyn Noseworthy. “He is known to us.” Matthew Scott Stadel, 29, is facing three counts of theft. One is in relation to the incident at Bosley’s. The other two are alleged to involve thefts of a tip jar from the downtown liquor store and merchandise from a Vernon drug store. He is also charged with failure to comply with a probation order. Stadel was to appear in Vernon Provincial Court Monday to face the charges. Vernon RCMP continue to investigate two other thefts of poppy donation boxes in Vernon. On Nov. 4, shortly before 10:45 p.m., a man stole the poppy donation box from Tim Hortons on Highway 6.
“It’s despicable.”
— Const. Noseworthy The box was later found and returned, but the money can was missing. Then, on Friday, Nov. 6, the poppy donation tin was stolen from TD/Canada Trust on 32nd Street between noon and 2 p.m. RCMP are following up on both thefts. “It’s despicable, to be honest,” said Noseworthy when asked about stealing from an organization such as the Royal Canadian Legion where the poppy fund is one of the organization’s main fundraisers.

“The Royal Canadian Legion is a non-profit organization. The donations from the annual poppy drive are used in numerous ways in our community. They fund programs for everyone from students to veterans. “The poppy campaign is a way to remember and honour our veterans and show our support for those currently serving our communities and our country.” The community rallied behind the theft from Bosley’s. Store manager Dawn Vipond said, as of Tuesday morning, close to $350 had been donated after word of the theft got out. “We had a couple of individuals donate $100 bills,” said Vipond. “The response has been amazing.”

ernments. There are currently 30 buoys in the bay during peak season which are used for motorcrafts. Those buoys would be moved if a South Bay marina is approved. Nasipayko said there are many reasons to save South Bay, including as a public swimming access, protected freshwater clam habitats, spawning fish and saving the painted turtle species. Nasipayko said Friends of South Bay have spent more than $125,000 defending space that belongs to the community. “That’s personal money from our pockets,” she said. “We have had to fund a lawyer, an environmental study, wind and wave study, pay divers to find the clams, study marine habitat and hire an engineer.” Friends of South Bay called for the city to reissue a letter of support, stating that the bay be left as a public swimming bay.

Plant concerns piling up JENNIFER SMITH Morning Star Staff
Answers continue to be sought in hopes of clearing the air over some concerns with Lavington’s new pellet plant. Resident complaints recently forced Coldstream to dig into issues around the Pinnacle Pellet Plant, ranging from sawdust storage to truck traffic. A report was compiled by staff, but council insists additional information is needed, including presentations from Tolko, Pinnacle and the Ministry of Environment (who have all been sent invitations but no dates or times have been set yet). One outstanding issue is the lack of an air quality monitor, which Coldstream is waiting for the MoE to install. Staff investigated the feasibility of purchasing its own monitor and determined it would be $68,000 plus another $48,000 each year for operational costs, calibration and maintenance.

Coun. Richard Enns questioned the numbers. “From what I understand, there are other systems available that are quite a bit cheaper,” said Enns. But discussions also took place on whether data from any monitors independent of the ministry would even be considered. “Anybody can go and purchase one,” said Coun. Doug Dirk. “Is that data going to be of any value, is MoE not going to look at this data as valid?” Enns insisted that further investigation was needed. “I think it’s important that we look at other options, in the same way that we used community resources to buy a speed reader board.” He continued, “So we can be in the position of watchdog and not lapdog in concern to this issue.” Another unresolved issue is lighting. “At 40 feet high, these lights are like spotlights,” said Lavington resident Stephanie Hoffman. “I’d like to see some resolution to the lighting problem that we did address.” Storage of sawdust is another issue residents have, as a large pile continues to accumulate outside the enclosed tent. “Previous information presented indicates that ‘primary fibre storage in two fully enclosed tents,’” Coldstream’s chief administrative officer Trevor Seibel said in his report. “In follow up with Pinnacle they indicated that occasional staging of material will be needed before they move into the appropriate enclosed tent.” Meanwhile three Lavington residents have taken matters into their own hands and have filed an appeal to the permit issued to Pinnacle. There is an environmental appeal board hearing, scheduled to begin April 18, 2016. Due to this process, MoE will not engage in a public discussion regarding the issues. But Meghan Butler, lawyer for MoE did state: “Our client is aware of the concerns from the community respecting the emissions emanating from the Pinnacle facility since its start-up on or about Sept. 28, 2015 and is undertaking an investigation of same, for which due process must be followed.”

Minor hockey offers $25,000 for plan Morning Star Staff
Greater Vernon Minor Hockey is onside for a new ice surface. The organization voted at a special meeting Saturday to approve in principle a $25,000 contribution to the City of Vernon to be used toward the construction of a second ice sheet at Kal Tire Place. “This contribution is not just for the benefit of Greater Vernon Minor Hockey, but for all user groups and for the community as a whole,” said Kara Blazek, GVMHA president. “We as an association do not want to risk losing an ice sheet and leaving our community and youth without this much-needed facility. “GVMHA wants all user groups and the community to know we stand tall behind our commu-
nity as a whole and this endorsement just solidifies our position.” The contribution will be going to the membership for approval on Nov. 19 at a general meeting. “The City of Vernon is happy to receive this contribution towards the proposed Civic Arena replacement project,” said Doug Ross, director of recreation services. “We are pleased that the GVMHA board has stepped up to endorse the proposed replacement project in a very tangible way. They understand that the proposed facility will be a valuable asset in the whole community and used for many organized activities including ringette, figure skating, speed skating and lacrosse.” The public will vote to borrow money to twin Kal Tire Place in a Nov. 28 referendum.

A time to remember
can’t imagine what my great-grandparents went through. Like many families during the First World War, Samuel and Maria Ryder got a knock at the door. A telegraph bluntly stated their 22-year-old son Sam had died Nov. 13, 1916 at the Somme. Not only would they never bask in his boyish smile again, they wouldn’t even have a chance for a final farewell or to bury him in the Kelowna cemetery. He would forever remain on French soil. Samuel and Maria would have still been grieving the loss of Sam, Richard Rolke when there was another knock at the door. April 9, 1917 has gone down in history as the first day of Vimy Ridge, the battle that thrust Canada into the family of nations. However, it was also the day that ensured their 21-year-old son Bert would never return to the Okanagan. He became another statistic for the military. Life obviously moved on for Samuel and Maria as they had eight other kids to worry about, including my grandpa Jack. But it’s unlikely things were ever the same again. Children are supposed to outlive their parents and when the reverse occurs, the heart is wounded. You likely can’t help but think of what could have been — establishing careers, walking down the aisle, raising children. All of those milestones parents hope to celebrate with their children are stripped away. Closure doesn’t exist. But of course war brings uncertainty and that was once again the case during the Second

World War when my grandpa Dick Rolke, after training at the Vernon Army Camp, headed overseas. Left behind was his still relatively new bride Elsie, who would soon be pregnant with my dad. Letters were written but there was always a chance that one day they would stop. And stop they did for a period as Dick struggled with diphtheria. What went through Elsie’s mind? Obviously she wondered what had happened to him, but she also likely considered the prospect of what the future would hold if he didn’t return. Would she be able to raise their son alone? Eventually Dick did return to the Okanagan but by that time, my dad was three-years-old and the shift from a strict military structure to home life must have been an abrupt adjustment. As a child, I would join Dick as he made the rounds leading up to Nov. 11. He ensured businesses and groups had their wreaths and there was a plentiful supply of poppies. It was just him and I and the bond that we had always shared strengthened further. In fact, Remembrance Day became our day. We would meet up early and then attend the ceremony together. It was a chance for him to reminisce, even when long-ago memories brought tears to the surface. That tradition continued even after I left home and had to drive an hour to be with him. Our last Remembrance Day was in 1998. Just a few weeks later he was gone. As I stand with my family today at the Coldstream cenotaph, I will think of all of those who have put their lives on the line, from the trenches of Europe to the streets of Kandahar. But most of all, I will take time to remember Bert and Sam, Samuel and Maria, and Dick and Elsie. Lest we forget.
As war has changed in indescribable ways over the last century, the face of our Remembrance Day ceremonies is changing too. Gone are the veterans of the First World War and ever dwindling are those Second World War and Korean War veterans whose stories are so entrenched in our collective Canadian consciousness. Yet we must continue to honour and recognize – to remember – those sacrifices that helped define and shape our history and culture. At the same time, we recognize the tremendous contributions of those who have stepped forward to serve their country and have given much in recent conflicts, in addition to those men and women – husbands, fathers, mothers and daughters – who have helped bring peace to war-ravaged countries around the world. Our commemoration on Nov. 11 is not about glorifying war; far from it. There is no question that the world would be a far better place were soldiers and armies no longer needed. However, the reality is that at present, the world is not that place. And so this Remembrance Day we give thanks to those who have laid down their lives, to those who have left loved ones in Canada to try to do some good a world away, and to those who fought and returned, forever changed. To those here on the homefront, from Second World War victory gardeners to today’s parents and children who wave good-bye from the dock to today’s Armed Forces members, you too deserve our thanks for what is, too often, a thankless job. We take a moment today to remember all of those sacrifices, and the many more besides. Thank you. -Black Press

Electoral system needs fixing
A
fter an election in which 9,093,630 (51.8 per cent) votes went nowhere, Justin Trudeau has a golden opportunity to bring a more democratic voting system to Canada. Liberals won a majority with 39.5 per cent of the popular vote and more than half of all voters were unable to cast an effective ballot. They now will wait another four years to have the opportunity to elect a representative aligned with their values – or not. Fair Vote Canada's executive director declares: "Given the distortion of the popular vote, Trudeau must ensure Canadians will have equal and effective votes in future elections. Never again should we face a one-party, one-man government elected by a minority of voters. We urge you to work with all parties and enact voting rules for a true and modern representative democracy in time for the next election." Canadians voted for change. This election was a referendum on the last false-majority government. They coalesced their votes around a promise to end first-past-the-post voting and an opportunity to have a truly democratic voting system that will make all our votes count – only proportional representation can
deliver on that promise. In total, 51.8 per cent of Canadian voters cast votes for losing candidates – with the riding of Pierre-Boucher-Les Patriotes-Verchères casting the most ineffective votes: 71.3 per cent. A system of proportional representation could reduce that number to as low as five per cent. All parties are hurt by the outcome of winner-take-all elections Across the country: 93.88 per cent of Green Party voters couldn't elect a representative 76.78 per cent of Bloc voters couldn't elect a representative 74.5 per cent of NDP voters couldn't elect a representative
MAYES DISAPPOINTS I was disappointed in Colin Mayes' comment in the Oct. 21 Morning Star that "... the Conservatives and Liberals...agree on one thing: we don't want socialism in our country." If it was Mr. Mayes' intention to reference the New Democratic Party as socialism (where government no longer merely regulates the market and creates conditions that support justice, but begins to own the market and impose justice) then he must surely agree that the erasure of federal records and public information by the former Conservative government qualifies that party as corporatism as it was practiced between WWI and WWII (where the individual vanished altogether both in theory and practice under the will of one person.)
50.98 per cent of Conservative voters couldn't elect a representative And, 33.49 per cent of Liberal voters couldn't elect a representative Under a proportional system the seat count would be: Lib 135, Con 109, NDP 68, GPC, 11, Bloc 15. Last month, over 500 Canadian academics, including several Fellows of the Royal Society of Canada, 29 Canada Research Chairs and two professors with the Order of Canada, called on all political parties to work together to bring in a proportional electoral system. Fair Vote Canada and its sup-
As reported, this unsettling comment seems an undignified end to Mr. Mayes' political career. Donna Easto RECONSIDER THE DATE Last year, I showed my dismay to the fact that the Vernon Farmers Market chose Nov. 11 as the day to have their "Stocking up for Christmas" sale. I said that I found it extremely rude to our past and present veterans that Remembrance Day was the date chosen to hold a one-day Christmas fair. Many people saw my post on Facebook and wrote to them saying the same. This year, it is once again being held on Remembrance Day and I find it extremely dis-
porters are asking Justin Trudeau to be brave. We are asking him to lead and put the country and its citizens before his party and build a representative democracy where all Canadians have the opportunity to equally participate in the governance and policy making of our country. We hope he will seize this opportunity to build a country where every citizen is heard, where diversity is respected, and where representatives of a popular majority rule – a democratic country. A country that we can all proudly call Canada. Fair Vote Canada is a multipartisan, citizen's campaign representing of 61,000 Canadians advocating for voting system reform. FVC promotes an introduction of an element of proportional representation in elections at all levels of government and in civil society. In Kelowna-Lake Country, Stephen Fuhr has indicated he supports proportional representation. In North Okanagan-Shuswap, Mel Arnold has not indicated his preferences on an electoral system.

respectful. Why can't they hold it on the first (or third) Saturday of November? Why does it have to be on Remembrance Day? I have many friends involved in the military and I have shared this with them and they too find it extremely disrespectful. The organizers have justified it by saying they hold two minutes of silence. I'm sorry, but that's not enough. It's one thing if you're part of a mall/store that's open on a regular basis, but to hold a oneday event on a day where we need to remind our younger generation what Remembrance Day means, is tacky. I sincerely hope that the VFM reconsiders its date for next year. Lest We Forget. Julie Funfer
WELL DONE Thank you Glenn Mitchell. I picked up my Morning Star and read your 'Ready or not, here we go' column of Oct. 25. You nailed it. This election turned into a nasty mud-slinging personal attack that just wore us all out and reaffirmed that the public (us) are not so easily led. Some of our politicians need to be reminded that they serve, they don't rule. It's a bit of a sticking point, I suppose, for some. It strikes me too, that many people who become politicians at some point, whether they started out that way or not, suddenly become immeasurably wiser than the rest of us. Arrogance and abuse of power will only last so long. Those of us in the trenches of day-to-day living, tragedy and taxes will eventually have our say. Thanks for a great article Glenn, I'm framing it as a reminder that we've got good people in the local press willing to step up and tell it like it is. Judy Paterson

Fearing brings long-awaited solo tour to Vernon Kristin Froneman Morning Star Staff
Photo submitted
Blackie and the rodeo Kings member stephen Fearing is back in the okanagan on his solo tour and performs at Paddlewheel Park Hall in Vernon on saturday, nov. 21.
It’s been a while since Stephen Fearing stepped foot on this soil. The respected Canadian singer-songwriter last played the Okanagan more than a decade ago as a solo artist when he toured in support of the former George Ryga Centre. A lot has happened since then, as locals will soon learn and hear when Fearing returns as the Vernon FolkRoots Music Society’s next guest, Nov. 21. You could say Fearing, who recently moved from one coast to the other, that being Halifax to Victoria, has been keeping busy as of late. He not only has a new album coming out in 2016 with his side project, Blackie and the Rodeo Kings, he has been hitting the road hard. He has just been overseas to perform in the U.K. as well as the Netherlands, and is now crossing this country for a number of solo shows. “I’ve been on the road almost constantly now for two months so the show is pretty well greased at this point,” said Fearing. Known for the band he co-founded with former Junkhouse lead singer Tom Wilson and famed Nashville producer/Canadian musician Colin Linden, Blackie and the Rodeo Kings came about in 1996 in what was supposed to be a one-off tribute album to the great Canadian songwriter Willie P. Bennett. That side project soon turned into a full-fledged band that would go on to attract fans around the world and win awards, including a Juno in 1998 for Best Roots and Traditional Album (Kings Of Love). Fearing already had a successful solo career before Blackie. His entry into
music came years before – with some doubts and piano lessons. “For years, I thought I was a black sheep in my family because my father was a classically trained pianist, organist, and conductor. My mother is a trained soprano, so my youth was spent around a lot of choir meetings and recitals,” he said. “I hated the discipline of (piano lessons). It didn’t speak to me. I think, like a lot of people my age, the guitar was a way into music that referenced what I was hearing on the radio.”
“Being solo gives me the opportunity to really interact with an audience.” — Stephen Fearing
Fearing spent a lot of time moving in his youth – from Canada to Ireland when he was six years old and then back to Canada when he was 17. At the time of his re-arrival, he was listening to punk, new wave, rock and pop - whatever was on Top 40 radio. “I had a hard time seeing himself performing that kind of music, especially playing a gut-string classical guitar or a steel-string acoustic,” he said. Eventually, Fearing found the singer-songwriter world when he started listening to Paul Simon and his ilk. Then one day his sister, Jane, gave him the Willie P. Bennett album Hobo’s Taunt, and Fearing heard the acoustic guitar. It had a profound influence. “I felt a connection and kept practising,” he said. “I was kind of like the typ-
ical awkward teenager sitting upstairs in his room for hours with the guitar; the singer-songwriters spoke to me.” Fearing felt drawn to perform in front of people, mostly in coffee houses. Eventually, he started writing songs, and remembers the first song he ever wrote was while travelling from Minneapolis, where he lived for two years, to Canada on a Greyhound bus. “I thought if I can’t write a song on a Greyhound bus, I’m an idiot. It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done,” he said. The rest, they say, is history and Fearing has not only won accolades for his eight studio recordings, and one live album, but awards, including a Juno in 2007 for Roots and Traditional Album of the Year for the album Yellowjacket, and a 2006 Canadian Folk Music Awards for Best Songwriter. His last solo release was 2013’s Between Hurricanes. Audiences can expect a combination of older and newer material and maybe a couple of brand, new songs when Fearing performs in Vernon. “I tell a lot of stories and I love performing solo. Being solo gives me the opportunity to really interact with an audience. I just love to perform, so hopefully people will pick up on that,” he said. The Vernon Folk-Roots Music Society presents Fearing live at the Paddlewheel Park Hall on Okanagan Landing Road, Saturday, Nov. 21 at 7:30 p.m. Opening act is Vernon’s own Amistad. Tickets are $25 or $20 for members, available at the Ticket Seller (250-5497469, www.ticketseller.ca), vernonfolkroots.com, the Bean Scene or at the door. – With interview files from Paul Tessier, with the VFRMS.

Irish film reflects on dance hall days
For The Morning Star
P O W E R H O U S E
T H E AT R E
The Vernon Film Society continues its fall season with Jimmy’s Hall, the new film from revered British director Ken Loach (The Angels’ Share), which recounts the true story of activist Jimmy Gralton. Upon returning to his Irish hometown of Effrinagh from the U.S. in the early 1930s to care for his ailing mother, Jimmy (Barry Ward) reopens a community
dance hall that he had founded before the war. Jimmy’s hall quickly becomes popular with local youth as a place to gather, dance to jazz, and host community events and debates. But, fearful that the hall is serving as a breeding ground for permissiveness, Americanization, and political radicalism, the local church attempts to shut it down. This action only serves to stoke the fires
AUDITIONS for
“Waiting in the Wings” Coward’s tribute to theatre is set in a retirement home for actresses, all former stars. Jealousies abound, especially between Lotta and another who was also married to her former husband. A tragedy brings them to their senses and a new solarium brings out everyone’s good nature. Lotta chooses to stay with her old friends rather than go live with her son.

of discontent among the local populace, bringing the church leadership into conflict with both the working class and changing mores. As Jimmy becomes an ever greater thorn in the side of conservative authority, the forces of repression are driven to an extreme, unprecedented – and shameful – measure to quash this burgeoning movement of grassroots progressivism. Anchored by strong, naturalistic performances and buoyed by the exciting music of the time, the rousing Jimmy’s Hall proudly carries on the tradition of committed political and social filmmaking for which Loach is rightfully renowned. “Lovely [and] heartfelt … infused with a gentle romanticism that buoys the film without cheapening the gravity of its subject.,” said Variety’s Scott Foundas. Jimmy’s Hall screens at the Towne Cinema Monday at the regular times of 5:15 and 7:45 p.m. Tickets are available one week in advance at the Towne and the Bean Scene for $7 (cash only).

Remembering the sacrifice
n this Remembrance Day I am thinking of my dad and the thousands of other Second World War soldiers, who at this time of year in 1944 were slogging their way across France. It was a horrendous experience that most of these veterans have found too painful to fully share. Imagine arriving on D-Day June 6, 1944 to the carnage on the beaches; being alive one minCathi Litzenberger ute, gone the next. Imagine digging and diving into ditches for protection from mortars and bombs daily. Imagine wearing the same filthy, flea and bug-infested uniforms for two solid months until new troops could be sent in to relieve you at the front. Imagine the horror of your convoy being bombed; and you injured, from the air by hundreds of planes. And since this is a food column, imagine being fed only once a day, usually some kind of stew concoction, and only if they could get to the troops at the front; if not they ate dry emergency rations. These are but a few of my dad’s experiences.
kitchen wit & wisdom
We can never really imagine the horrors and experiences these young soldiers endured but we can respect their bravery and acknowledge them for freeing Europe and saving Canada. Today’s recipes are both comfort foods. The first is a delicious chicken dish that will feed a crowd, the second a hearty soup, perfect for the cool days of fall. Chicken Breasts Lombardy 8 skinless chicken breasts 1 cup butter, divided Salt and pepper 1-1/2 cups sliced mushrooms 3/4 cup Marsala wine or dry white wine or use low-sodium organic broth 1/2 cup chicken broth 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese 3 green onions, chopped Place chicken between wax paper and pound to 1/4- 1/8 inch thick. Dredge in flour, then place 4 pieces at a time into a hot frying pan with 2 tbsp. of butter. Cook 3-4 minutes per side until golden. Place in 9 X 13 inch dish over lapping edges. Repeat, adding 2 tbsp butter. Sprinkle all 8 with salt and pepper. Reserve drippings in skillet. Sauté mushrooms in 1/4 cup butter. Drain and sprinkle over chicken. Stir wine and broth into drippings,
simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/8 tsp. pepper. Spoon 1/3 of the sauce over the chicken. Reserve remaining sauce. Combine cheeses and green onions, and sprinkle over chicken. Bake at 450 F for 10-12 minutes. Place under broiler 1-2 minutes to lightly brown. Serve with reserved sauce. Hamburger, Bean & Macaroni Soup 1 lb. hamburger 1 onion, diced 1 teaspoon crushed garlic 1 tablespoon olive oil 6 cups beef stock 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can kidney beans, rinsed 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce 1 cup uncooked macaroni 1 teaspoon salt 1⁄2 teaspoon black pepper 1 teaspoon dried basil 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce In a large dutch oven or other soup pot, sauté onion and garlic in oil until soft, about 10 minutes. Add meat and cook until no pink remains. Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook an additional 15-20 minutes until macaroni is cooked through and flavours have had time to meld.

ent. Some people are even hiding behind the fact that they believe our own citizens do not get the same treatment as refugees or immigrants. I would suggest some fact-checking. There are always exceptions of course to every situation. It could be likened to the nonsense that people who have to use the welfare system live high on the hog, or that people in jail have the life of Riley.

our world – like world hunger, the exploiting of women and children, pillaging of villages in Third world countries. How about paying more attention to the environment? It reminds me of the days when people would believe something simply because it was written in a magazine. You can still read this unsubstantiated garbage on your way through the grocery line when you are buying your veggies. Although, hopefully, most people now know that it is not true. The hateful e-mails are an insidiously silent method of sending doubt and worry to the masses. After all, if a friend or relative is sending it, it can’t be that bad – right? Wrong. The terrorists must be chuckling to themselves as they watch our society fixate on the untruths sent via the internet. We have picked up from where they may have left off. We are now almost helping them on their path to create fear in our world by creating it willingly amongst ourselves. Fear building attacks the very essence of a society and it begins to crumble. Sadly, receivers of the ugly e-mails help to perpetuate the myths, by forwarding them on to others, with no regard to checking whether or not they are true. It is not like a joke where at least, smiles and laughter abound. It is poisonous misinformation that is judgmental and hurtful to other human beings on this planet. It is hateful propaganda directed to those who are different. Are we that frightened of difference that we need to send vile untruths via email? So please, if you are the recipient of such unkind words, hit delete. Canadians have the reputation of being nice. Hate mail is not nice.

UBCO program nurses options Morning Star Staff
Nursing is in Adam Fulton’s blood. Both of his parents (now retired) were registered nurses and when Fulton started thinking about career choices, it was easy to follow in their footsteps. Now a graduate from UBC Okanagan’s undergraduate School of Nursing program, Fulton is a rural emergency room nurse in Napanee, Ont. While Napanee is a starting place for his career — and a place to work while his fiancée completes her medical residency training — Fulton has already hit the books, working towards his master’s degree in nursing (MSN). Fulton, who grew up in Kelowna, jumped at the chance to begin his graduate studies when he learned that UBC Okanagan’s School of Nursing had revamped its master’s program, with newly introduced curriculum options for distance and self-directed learning. “The flexibility offered by this comprehensive delivery method is unique to UBC Okanagan and allows me to maintain a balanced approach to learning,” he said. “The MSN program teaches students how to critically examine the art of nursing from unique perspectives.”
“I feel privileged to continue what my parents started.” — Adam Fulton
The revised MSN program invites graduate students to map a degree path through full-or part-time studies, allowing baccalaureate prepared nurses to continue with their professional and educational goals, says Kathy Rush, graduate program coordinator. The revised program includes options to complete a capstone project in leadership, education, or advanced practice, or to conduct research with a UBC researcher. For Fulton, however,
it’s more about advancing his knowledge and skills to become the best critical care nurse he can be, partly by looking at the way he works with patients and other caregivers. “The program has taught me to better reflect upon attitudes influencing our profession and has enhanced my ability to evaluate my own practice habits and work environment,” he said. “My capacity to question these factors has increased my confi-

CPR training urged for all Samaritan principles, which protect individuals from liability who step in to provide first aid. CPR practice on a manikin helps build muscle memory and the confidence needed to respond quickly to an emergency. Classroom practice will teach you how to best position your hands, as well as how fast and how deep to compress the chest. What type of situation might require CPR? Here are a few cases where a person may become unconscious and stop breathing: • Choking • Drowning • Hypothermia • Heart Attack • Sudden cardiac arrest The best way to learn CPR is by taking a St. John Ambulance CPR course. St. John Ambulance certifies more than 550,000 people each year in first aid and CPR in Canada – with each person trained

November marks CPR Awareness Month in Canada, and St. John Ambulance encourages everyone to learn the lifesaving skills. CPR, or cardio-pulmonary resuscitation, is a critical life support skill for use in emergency situations where a person is unresponsive and not breathing normally. By combining the basics of artificial respiration and artificial circulation, CPR enables oxygenated blood to reach the brain and other vital organs, until either the heart starts beating or medical assistance takes over. Artificial respiration provides oxygen to the lungs, while artificial circulation causes blood to flow through the body. When the heart stops, brain damage can occur after just four minutes. After 12 minutes, the chance of survival drops to about five per cent. When time is of the essence, knowing CPR can not only prevent brain damage, but can also save a life. “It would be great if we could get to a point where not knowing CPR is as unacceptable as drinking and driving,” said Keith Tyler, Senior Training Specialist with St. John Ambulance (BC and Yukon). “It’s the one thing that anybody can do to save a life. Anybody can do it, and everybody should know how – it’s a tragedy that people die because bystanders don’t know CPR.” Four out of five sudden cardiac arrests occur at home or in public places, which is why everyone needs to be trained in CPR. “Am I doing it right? Am I hurting them?” – these thoughts tend to cross people’s minds when faced with an emergency requiring first aid such as CPR. Thankfully, all you need is your hands and some know-how. CPR training involves teaching the correct method for performing chest compressions and rescue breathing to help prevent brain damage or death. Training also includes how to practice Good

Cats grab bronze Morning Star Staff
The Sa-Hali AAA Sabres of Kamloops dispatched the Princess Margaret AA Mustangs of Penticton 2-0 (25-16, 25-16) in Saturday’s matinee final of the Fulton Senior Girls Volleyball Tournament. Sa-Hali was jumpstarted by tournament MVPCaet Mckorkell and all-star Sawyer Hawgood. The Mustangs were led by all-stars Sydney McKinley and Farnoz Johal. The VSS AAA Panthers took the bronze medal in the eight-team classic by outlasting the Kalamalka AA Lakers 2-1 (25-16, 19-25, 15-10). Anna Rice of VSS and Maya Bandy of Kal also made the all-star team. Sa-Hali swept Kal 25-20, 25-9, while Princess Margaret iced VSS 25-21, 16-25, 15-9 in the semis. The Lakers brushed back the Valleyview AAA Vikings of Kamloops 2-1 (20-25, 25-13, 15-13), while the Panthers upended the AA George Elliot Coyotes of Lake Country 25-23, 25-20 in the quarterfinals. Princess Margaret defeated Westsyde AA Whundas of Kamloops 30-28,18-25,17-19, while Sa-Hali knocked off Fulton 25-17, 25-16 in the other quarters. Fulton grounded George Elliot 17-25, 25-21, 15-10, while Valleyview defeated Westsyde 25-19, 25-23 to share fifth. Nicole Olson of Fulton was named an all-star. “Once again the Okanagan is proving to produce very high-calibre girls volleyball teams,” said Fulton coach Sharon Shaigec. “Princess Margaret is currently ranked sixth AA provincially and Sa-Hali is ranked fourth AAA. “I was proud of how my team battled hard to get the win in our last match against George Elliot. Elliot is hosting AA provincials Dec. 3-5 so they are definitely a team we will have to beat at the Valley Championships and again at the provincials.”
Added Shaigec: “Power Hitter Sarah Orr was very consistent in the front row and made spectacular digs in the back row. Nicole Olson ran a solid offence throughout the tournament and her leadership skills helped pull out the win in the George Elliot game.” The North Zone playoffs went Tuesday at Kal. In senior AA boys play, the sick and injuryplagued Maroons finished third at the 16-team Elliot tournament. Ranked No. 2 in B.C., Fulton met top-seed MEI of Clearbrook in their opening match and won the opening set 25-22 before losing 25-22, 15-12. “Being down 12-3 in the second and 7-0 in the third didn’t help matters, but the boys fought hard to get back in both sets,” said Fulton head coach Richard Bedard. “I was pretty happy overall considering that our players are not at 100 per cent health right now. A bad cold is going through the team as well as other injuries.” Fulton defeated the FH Collins Warriors of the Yukon 25-17, 25-16, 25-17 in the round of 16. This led to a quarterfinal marathon with College Heights Cougars of Prince George which the Maroons took 25-19, 25-17, 23-25, 23-25, 15-9. The weary Maroons then lost 25-15, 25-19, 30-28 to the No. 4 AA Langley Christian Lightning. in the semifinals. “LCS played a solid match and they were gunning for us since we beat them two straight at the KSS Best of the West. They passed and hit well. We lost to them at the same tournament last year, so we know what we need to work on before provincials,” said Bedard. Team all star shirts were given to Ryan Doerges, Jordy Barr and Christan Harpe. The Maroons earned the right to host North Zones at Fulton Thursday and Friday after finishing at 6-0.

Vipers salvage road trip by icing Surrey KEVIN MITCHELL Sports Editor
They will stop for a few moments and honour fallen war heroes this morning. Then the Vernon Vipers will begin working on building an army of their own, building up trust in one another and promising true trips to the trenches. The Vipers salvaged a woeful weekend by rallying for a 4-3 win over the last-place Surrey Eagles Sunday night at South Surrey Arena. The Vipers hosted the Merritt Centennials Tuesday night and practise this afternoon at Civic Arena due to the Remembrance Day ceremony at Kal Tire Place. Vernon opened the road trip losing 6-3 to the Alberni Bulldogs Friday and then fell 6-3 to the Cowichan Valley Capitals Saturday night in Duncan. “We played a couple of good periods Sunday, but obvi-
ously, it wasn’t a good weekend,” said Vernon head coach/ GM Mark Ferner. “Again, it was just a lack of consistency. It’s a fragile group. I had to bark at them after the first period (in Surrey). Everybody is waiting for things to happen. We did too much standing around and didn’t initiate things.” Ferner was impressed with new 20-year-old recruits Latrell Charleson and Ben Butcher. He also gave props to young inexperienced goalie Brendan Barry, who didn’t get much help. “I told them: ‘You guys play and we’ll coach.’ The new players and the older players are all waiting for someone to lead them. They have to trust what we’re saying. One thing that is non-negotiable is our work ethic. When we hound teams for the puck, we are a good team.” The Eagles (4-17) traded for d-man Brett Stewart of the Salmon Arm Silverbacks and big forward Kurt Black of the

Trail Smoke Eaters Thursday. The moves for the 20-year-olds seemed to spark the Eagles as they went in front 2-0 on goals by Donovan Ott and Stewart in the opening 20. Charleson, a former Eagle who hadn’t played a game in nine months, responded on an early power play in the second period for Vernon. Liam Finlay and Odeen Tufto drew helpers. Tyler Andrews put Surrey up 3-1 on another power play three minutes later. Finlay, 3:16 in, and Riley Brandt, on a power play four minutes later, also registered third-period snipes for the Vipers. Brandt has 10 goals and Finlay seven. Defenceman Mitchell Oliver registered the winner at 11:23 on a power play, his second goal of the season. Jagger Williamson and Brandt bagged assists.

Cole Zimmerman’s goal 16 seconds into the third period gave the 100 Mile House Wranglers a 4-1 win over the North Okanagan Knights in Kootenay International Junior Hockey League action Saturday night at Armstrong’s Nor-Val Sports Centre. The loss extended the Knights’ (3-14-13) winless streak to 14 games. “Once again, we played well enough to win but we’re just not winning,” said Knights head coach Bryant Perrier. “We outshot them (42-31), outchecked them and outchanced them. We had momentum going into the third period, but then we had five guys out there at the start of the third period not ready to play. We make a mistake and it ends up in the back of our net.” Kolby Page gave the visitors a 1-0 lead halfway through the opening period with that goal sticking until Zimmerman’s marker. North Okanagan game star Austin Fournier pulled the Knights to within one at 6:24 on the powerplay, set up by Graham Watkins and Liam Molloy. It was Fournier’s team-leading sixth goal. The Wranglers, who lead the Doug Birks Division at 14-4-02, restored their twogoal cushion less than two minutes later on a goal by game star Nick McCabe, with the man advantage. Zimmerman added his second of the night into an empty net with 34 seconds left. Tristan Quiring made 27 saves for the Knights. “We’re not throwing in the towel,” said Perrier. “We need to figure out how to quit kicking at the door, and get someone in here who will kick the bloody door in.” The Knights host Spokane Braves (3-150-4) Saturday night.

Ethan Mitchell of the Magnums tackles Colby Miletto of the Kelowna Riders in Interior Junior Bantam Football League playoff action Sunday.
Magnums move to football final Morning Star Staff
The Vernon Magnums will entertain the Kelowna Lions Sunday in the Southern Interior Junior Football Conference playoff final at the Greater Vernon Athletics Park (2 p.m.). Ethan Mitchell recorded three touchdowns as the Magnums ambushed the Kelowna Riders 57-6 in Sunday’s semifinal in Vernon. Mitchell scored on the Magnums’ second drive, hauling in a 31-yard pass from quarterback Zack Smith. Smith was 4-for-5 and 66 yards passing and called his own number for scores on consecutive drives to put Vernon up by 24. The Riders took the ensuing kickoff 70 yards for their only scoring play. Back-up tailback Liam Gombrich added to the scoring parade when he rambled in from 30 yards, dragging would-be-tacklers with him. Matthew Reich rounded out the first-half scoring with a nifty 20-yard TD run to make it 40-0 Magnums at the half. “Our boys played about as good of a half of football as we could expect. They tackled well, hit open receivers and ran the ball at will” said Vernon head coach Doug Ondrik. The second half saw more of the same when Mitchell ripped the ball out of a Rider ball carrier’s hands and took it to the end zone. He then followed it up by taking a reverse 42 yards for his third TD. Placekicker Trent Charlton went 8-for-8 on his extra point attempts
and punter Isaiah Ondrik contributed a single for the 9-0 Magnums. “I really liked that we were able to have eight different boys carry the ball and three different players catch a pass – and still scored on all but one drive in the game,” said offensive coordinator Sean Smith. “We have a few things that we need to clean up before the finals but I like the way we are moving the ball.” Jarrett Cooper had five touches for 12 yards, while Charlton ran 17 yards on two carries. Ondrik and Reich led all tacklers with six, while Smith contributed 5 along with an interception. Ethan Schiman was disruptive in the Rider backfield all game and registered four tackles, including two sacks. “Our biggest test of the season will be this Sunday against the (7-2) Lions. We beat them handily the first time we played them, but I’m sure they are looking to knock us off,” said Ondrik. In Atom playoff action, the Magnums lost 36-8 to the host and undefeated Kamloops Broncos. Quarterback Owen Ranger made nine outstanding tackles, followed by Lochlen Kilford (6) and Morgan Hackman (6) with a fumble recovery. Nathan Rinkel, Tristan McKenzie, Sophia Winstanley and Issaiah Grant registered some hard-hitting tackles.

Concept gang fall 72-61 Morning Star Staff
Vernon Concept Physio fell 72-61 to Kelowna Appraisals in Kelowna Men’s 35+ Basketball League play Monday night. Kelowna Appraisals has won the league title the last three years and watched as Wannes Luppins opened the scoring with an easy put-in off the boards. Just a minutes later, Luppins added another two-foot rebound. Kelowna Appraisals pulled ahead at the end of the first quarter where
they led by 10. By the half, Concept closed the gap to just nine as they struggled with perimeter shooting and the Appraisals’ zone defence. Concept began building momentum part way through the third quartter as they began breaking down the zone dee through two unanswered treys on the perimeter by Luke Yanik. A quick two-minute change to man defence hurt Concept. This is Vernon’s first year in the Kelowna league.

News Big White opens Morning Star Staff
After another 30 centimetres of fresh powder over the weekend, Big White Ski Resort will open early for the 2015/2016 ski season. The resort will start spinning lifts at 8:45 a.m. on Friday, nearly two weeks earlier than originally expected. “Our on-mountain team works so hard at this time of year to make sure that everyone gets on the snow as soon as Mother Nature allows,” said Michael J. Ballingall, senior vicepresident of Big White Ski Resort Ltd. “It’s always been the family’s policy to open a lift as soon as snow permits and it’s safe to do so – and that’s what we’ve done again this year.” At this stage, resort officials expect the Ridge Rocket Express Quad chair, the Plaza Quad chair and Lara’s Gondola to be operating. All lifts will operate until 3:30 p.m. except for Lara’s Gondola, which will operate until 5 p.m. Open runs will include Highway 33, Serwa’s, Easy Out, Easy Street and Hummingbird. Skiers and snowboarders visiting the resort will be able to purchase lift tickets at 50 per cent off their regular retail price until the resort opens more chairlifts and terrain. The Village Centre Mall and Happy Valley parking lot will be open and available to those coming up the mountain, with various restaurants across the mountain also open for food service. Vernon’s Silver Star Mountain Resort is opening its nordic trails Thursday and has targeted Nov. 26 as the official opening of its downhill season.

Bridge by Phillip Alder IS IT TIME TO WAIT OR TO HUNT ACTIVELY? Sylvia Plath, a poet, novelist and short-story writer who died in 1963, said, “I have the choice of being constantly active and happy or introspectively passive and sad.” Bridge defenders have to decide whether to be active - positively trying to win tricks - or passive - sitting back and waiting for declarer to lose tricks. If they adopt the correct approach on any given deal, they will be happy. In this deal, East has the decision to make. South is in four spades. West leads the heart three, and East wins with his king. How should he plan the defence? Some Wests would have jumped to four hearts,
arguing that with 10 trumps, get to the 10-trick level. But with no singleton, this seems too much to me. Note, though, that his three-heart raise was preemptive. With a good hand, he would have cue-bid two spades. If East judges it is right to defend passively, he should continue with the heart ace. Here, though, South would ruff in the dummy, draw two rounds of trumps ending in his hand, and take the club finesse. It would lose, but he could claim four spades, one diamond, four clubs and one heart ruff. East should realize that dummy’s club suit is threatening to provide declarer with a host of tricks. East must shift immediately to a low diamond. Here,
West will put in his nine to force out dummy’s queen. South takes his top trumps and tries the club finesse. East wins and plays another diamond. Declarer wins in the dummy and starts to run the clubs, but West ruffs in and leads a diamond to East’s jack. The defenders happily get one trick in each suit.
