B.C. Premier Christy Clark lays a wreath at the West Kelowna Remembrance Day ceremony held Wednesday in Royal LePage Place.

B.C.’s premier joins in West Kelowna Remembrance Day service Alistair Waters awaters@kelownacpnews.com

B.C. Premier Christy Clark joined a packed house at West Kelowna’s Royal LePage Place Wednesday to mark Remembrance Day. After laying a wreath on behalf of the province, Clark, whose riding includes West Kelowna, spoke briefly saying it is important to remember those who gave their lives for freedoms Canadians enjoy today. Expressing gratitude to the roughly 2,000 people who packed into the municipal sports arena to mark the day, the premier said it was a reflection of a caring community that so many wanted to come out and pay tribute to those who gave their lives in war.

YOU’RE GOING TO LOVE LIVING HERE.

“Each year on the 11th day of the 11th month, we pay silent tribute to the men and women who served in conflicts past and current, and made the ultimate sacrifice for our country,” said Clark. “From every corner of this nation, and from every walk of life, they risked everything so that their friends, neighbours and descendants will never have to face the horrors of war. So that our children will grow up safe and free.” Clark said those who gather, honour their memory by preserving what they fought for—peace, freedom and a Canada where differences are settled not with violence, but with discussion and democracy. “Thank you to all those who have

answered their country’s call, who continue to represent us at our best and to the families that support them.” The ceremony inside Royal LePage Place is one of two held in West Kelowna each year. Another, smaller gathering, is held outdoors at the actual community cenotaph at the Westbank Lions Community Hall. The city’s annual Remembrance Day ceremony, organized by the local branch of the Royal Canadian Legion, was brought in doors shortly after Royal LePage Place opened to make it more comfortable for the veterans, many of whom are now elderly. Remembrance Day ceremonies were also held in downtown Kelowna, Rutland, Lake Country and in Peachland (see photos on A3).

REMEMBRANCE DAY

Support for our veterans

When you left for war, my heart sank. When you never came back, tears rolled down my cheek. The many years without you I fell lower and lower. It was hard letting go of someone you truly love. My love for you will never fade. I still remember the last time we spoke. You said “I will never stop loving you.” I will always wear a poppy to remember you.

Fundraiser inspired by exhibition of cabinets of curiosities Are you curious? This is the question the Kelowna Art Gallery hopes will bring guests out to their fundraising event entitled Cabinet of Curiosities, on Friday, Nov. 20, from 7 to 10 p.m. Guests interested in satisfying their curiosity will be treated to a lively party that will combine art, music, and performance, with just the right dose of the unusual. The evening is inspired by the weird and wonderful history of cabinets of curiosities. These old collections of curios were set up in dedicated rooms of the wealthy. Eccentrically curated, and displaying items that might confound visitors’ imaginations—these collections of strange objects and other-worldly specimens could have been taken from the pages of Ripley’s Believe it

or Not! The evening will feature Embassy DJ, stilt-walking, costumed characters, and fire performances by Kinshira Performance Group, an Absinthe bar, courtesy of partner Okanagan Spirits, a photo wall, fun adult art activities, snacks, prizes, and more. In addition, the art gallery’s exhibitions will be open for guests to explore: Landon Mackenzie: Parallel Journey: Works on Paper (1975-2015); Elizabeth D’Agostino: Makeshift; Preserves: Prepared for Future Use; and The Artist’s Garden Project in the courtyard space entitled Pieces of What. Proceeds from this fundraising event will benefit the art gallery’s educational programming, including its school tours program, Family Sundays and children’s art camps.

Toy drive campaign wants to bring joy for children in need Do you have a favourite Christmas memory? Is it getting the toy you longed for, or watching your own young kids squeal with glee in the early hours of Christmas morning? The Central Okanagan Community Food Bank is almost as busy as Santa, making sure all families can create positive, happy memories on Christmas day. It is asking for the community’s support in collecting new unwrapped toys for the expected 1,600 Christmas hampers that the food bank will give out just before Christmas. “We endeavour to help families in need lessen the stress of the holidays…,” said a Central Okanagan Community Food Bank news release. A number of donation bins have been set up at the locations listed below: • Okanagan Regional Library branches in Rutland, Downtown Kelowna and in Westbank on the Westside • Kelowna Actors Studio’s ticket booth at Orchard Park Mall and its main office on Ellis Street in downtown Kelowna • The Rotary Centre for the Arts • The Kelowna Community Theatre • The Rutland Arena A toy drive is planned for Nov. 21 and 22 at Michaels Craft Store in Kelowna. Donations can also be made at either food bank office—1265 Ellis St. in downtown in Kelowna or 2545 Churchill Rd. in West Kelowna.

SCHOOL DISTRICT

Student leaders seek to reduce stigma of mental health issues One of the biggest barriers faced by youth living with mental health issues is the stigma or shame that comes from silence and misunderstanding, according to officials with the Central Okanagan School District. To that end, student leaders from throughout School District 23 gathered at the Hollywood Road Education Centre last week for a student summit on mental health they called, The Fire Within Us. Overall, the message was clear: Having open and honest conversations with friends and classmates is an important way of reducing that

stigma. Guest speakers, student presenters, and community organizations facilitated learning on themes of love, interconnectedness, empathy and individuality. This year, the school district’s Got Health? campaign is focused on mental health and student leaders are being challenged to create a plan to help their schools become mentally healthy. “We are so inspired by these student leaders,” said Vianne Kintzinger, director of instruction with the Central Okanagan School District. “They understand the importance of promoting mental health through connection and, in many

EPIC ADVENTURE

ways, are the best ones to tackle this critical focus area for our schools.” The Canadian Mental Health Association, Kelowna and District branch, knew that this was the perfect venue to launch their #GETLOUD Pledge for schools. “The #GETLOUD Pledge is an initiative where individuals make the commitment to talk openly about mental health, show empathy and support, and share the pledge with friends and family, all to help break the silence that keeps many people from getting the help they need,” said Candace

Giesbrecht, director of community engagement at CMHA Kelowna. In addition to signing the #GETLOUD Pledge at the summit, students were given resources on how to create a plan to foster a mentally healthy environment at their school. To support students, CMHA Kelowna is offering grants of up to $250 for each school to make those plans a reality, through the generous support of The Thomas Alan Budd Foundation. Visit www. getloudkelowna.com to sign and share the #GETLOUD Pledge.

Aviator to share experiences of global flight Kelowna resident Dave McElroy undertook an epic adventure on behalf of two charities: SickKids Foundation of Toronto and Scotland’s Charity Air Ambulance of Perth, Scotland. The adventure comprised two overlapping Round the World (RTW) flights from Toronto and Scotland respectively, just the 198th such flight in world history. McElroy was subsequently awarded the Norton Griffiths Challenge Trophy by the Royal Aero Club in London, England, in May. This award is presented only occasionally to “aviators undertaking outstanding feats of courage, tenacity and imagination unrelated to traditional sporting events.” On Wednesday, Nov. 18, 7 p.m., at Okanagan College, McElroy will explain how the flight was conceived and executed in an entertaining and enlightening presentation which includes dozens of amazing photos taken as he flew across five continents and all the world’s major oceans.

Three treatments for $125!

1625 Ellis St, Kelowna 250-861-8863 www.OkanaganAcupuncture.com

The William R. Bennett family has made a major donation to The Young Citizens Foundation. The donation of $15,000 will be used to give a $5,000 scholarship to a young participant in the Scouts movement in each of the next three years. Scouts Canada will open this opportunity up to any Canadian Scout across the country in Grade 12. The money will be used for tuition fees and paid by the foundation to a Canadian accredited post-secondary institution of the student’s choice. The mission of The Young Citizens Foundation is to assist young Canadians to grow and mature as committed, knowledgeable and contributing

Canadian citizens. This national foundation achieves this objective by encouraging young Canadians to participate in citizenship development programs operated by nationally recognized organizations such as The Royal Canadian Sea Cadets, The Royal Canadian Army Cadet, The Royal Canadian Air Cadets; Scouts Canada, Rotary’s Adventure in Citizenship, and Encounters With Canada. Foundation founding and current president Gary Bennett said: “Canada’s future depends upon the development of strong leadership in our youth; these programs provide life-learning opportunities for our youth which will significantly influence and benefit their development as committed

Canadian citizens. “Participation in these organizations develops leadership skills, exposes students to the various citizenship ideals that the country values and provides some very positive mentoring.” Former B.C. premier William R. Bennett was keenly interested in citizenship development in the country. His son Steve (no relation to Gary Bennett) said that scouting was always a big part of their family life growing up in Kelowna. All four of William and Audrey Bennett’s sons and several of their grandchildren were scouts. Audrey herself was also a Scout leader as was Steve Bennett in his adult life.

NORTH WESTSIDE

Jacked up water rates upsets residents Richard Rolke Contributor

The prospect of higher water rates has the North Westside’s regional district director fuming. The Regional District of Central Okanagan board has given first reading to proposed increases for basic fees and consumption rates for its six water utilities, including Killiney Beach, Westshore Estates and Upper Fintry, Shalal Road and Valley of the Sun. “I’m very concerned and upset with how

the community is being handled,” said regional district board director Wayne Carson. “I didn’t support the rate increases.” Carson says RDCO is using asset renewal funds to cover utility operational losses despite residents being told that wouldn’t occur. “I wanted informed at any time that they were doing this. There has been no operational information given to my community.” Carson also objects to the entire board voting

on water rates because the process has previously only involved the directors from the two electoral areas where the utilities are located. For Killiney Beach, the proposed annual user fee could be $466, while it could be $550 for Westshore and $690 for the Upper Fintry, Shalal Road and Valley of the Sun utility. Consumption fees could also increase. “For the two oldest systems, Killiney and Westshore, it works out that an average water

user will spend around $100 a month for water with the new fees,” said Bruce Smith, RDCO communications officer. “It’s slightly less for Upper Fintry, Shalal and Valley of the Sun, which is a new water system, so has a lower asset management fee.” Asset management fees remain unchanged —$657 annually for Killiney Beach, $582 for Westshore and $200 for Upper Fintry. “The main reason for the new rates is to make them more equitable for people who use less water and so that high and extreme users pay more for their excess water use,” said Smith. “It will also help to ensure these two fees fully fund the cost of operating each distinct water system. We’ve had several meetings with residents over the past four years to discuss water rates and the desire to fully fund operational costs from the user and consumption fees.” Smith admits the asset management fund has been used to cover operational shortfalls. “That has not been the intent of the asset management fee, which is in place to collect reserve funds for future infrastructure replacement in each water system,” he said. Carson says North Westside residents are concerned about water rates. “I have people calling me in tears. They are pulling out trees and gardens because they can’t afford to water them,” he said.

news _______________________________________________ CITY OF KELOWNA

Online feedback on capital projects Keeping what’s on the ground and what’s under ground in good shape is a priority for the City of Kelowna. According to city hall, it has a responsibility to deliver infrastructure that ensures community health and safety while meeting legislative requirements and providing opportunities for growth and economic development. So it wants to hear what residents have to say about

how it should spend its money to do that. As reported earlier this week, the city has launched an online “budget allocator” so residents can experience firsthand what it’s like to balance the level of infrastructure investment in city parks, transportation, civic and recreation buildings and utilities. City officials say the information collected will be used to help create awareness and inform citizens about

current funding levels in the city’s infrastructure areas. Earlier this week, council was shown the first draft of the city’s 2030 Infrastructure Plan, which carries a possible total price tag of $1.04 billion over the next 15 years. The results of this online exercise, along with other plans, regulations and financial policies will be presented to city council to help further refinement of the 2030 Infrastructure Plan this winter.

To kick off the information gathering, city staff will be on hand at Orchard Park Shopping Centre—outside the HMV store—today and tomorrow from noon to 5 p.m. to answer questions regarding the plan and provide an opportunity for citizens to go online. The opportunity for online input closes Dec. 6. Visit kelowna.ca/2030kelowna to access the online budget allocator.

Wild salmon are integral to many First Nations’ cultures, well being and livelihood, and the protection of our wild salmon stocks is equally integral to the economic and environmental sustainability of the province and country as a whole. This year, only an estimated two million sockeye have returned to the Fraser River, far short of the more than six million predicted in preseason forecasts. There is an even further dramatic collapse of the pink salmon fishery, with only an estimated five million fish returning when more than 14 million had been forecast.

Bicycling safety goes beyond the helmet “They were pointing at me Kathartic because they could tell you’re putting my life KATHY at risk,” I yelled MICHAELS at my friend as we parked our bikes following an alarming ride around some historic landmarks this summer. “No, they were pointing because you’re the only one wearing a helmet and you look like a maniac,” she said. I figured that my mouth agape in horror would have made me stand out a bit, but the idea that my helmet was the real beacon hadn’t dawned on me. As other cyclists parked their bikes in a jam-packed rack by a delightful stretch of cafes in the heart of Paris, however, I realized she was right. I was wearing the telltale sign of a North American in Paris and it was fine by me. Having been force-fed the helmet Kool-Aid a long time ago, I believed if cycling was going to take my life that vacation, they’d have to pry my securityblanket/helmet off me. Luckily, that was not the case. Or, more likely, it was less luck and more a delightful result of how a

little education and a push toward a cultural shift can go a long way. In 2007, the mayor of Paris launched a free bike program, which has in time amounted to 20,000 bicycles being made available 24 hours a day, at nearly 1,500 ‘stations’ across the city. Along with those bicycles there are 372 km of bike lanes snaking their way around Paris and scenic strips of the city that are closed to cars on Sundays and holidays. And, while a ride around the Arc de Triomphe may feel perilous, cycling in most other areas of Paris isn’t. According to Google the number of accidents involving cyclists between 2007 and 2012 was relatively low: 12 have died. More than 660 have been injured, according to police, though most of the injuries were reported as “not serious.” In 2010, 43 people died in accidents on Paris’s streets and boulevards: two cyclists, 18 pedestrians, 17 motorcyclists and scooter riders and six vehicle drivers or passengers. There wasn’t a single cyclist death in 2011. They say it’s because with cyclists around, other road users have become more used to them and are giving them greater respect. Cyclists abide by the rules of the road and don’t spend half their time as pedestrians, then the other

e s a a h w t a

p half as motorists. And helmets, in turn, are optional. b That mutual respect leads to safety hypothesis i has been the subject of several European studies and it was reinforced this week in Canada with a d new study out of the University of British Columbia. c Comparing data from provinces that have u introduced mandatory helmet laws to those without t them, the study found that helmet legislation was effective in getting more cyclists to wear helmets, a but it did not translate into fewer injuries. b “Helmet laws didn’t make a difference to hospitalization rates for brain, head, scalp, skull, face or neck injuries,” read the study. It found instead that the rate of hospitalization amongst cyclists actually dropped as the rate of cycling went up. “These results suggest that transportation and health policymakers who aim to reduce bicycling injury rates in the population should focus on factors related to increased cycling (bike lanes) and (safer) female cycling choices. Bicycling routes designed to be physically separated from traffic or along quiet streets fit both these criteria and are associated with lower relative risks of injury,” the study concluded. p Makes sense. Certainly reinforces what European i b studies of a similar theme have found. M e

Letters HORSE MEAT

Overseas markets drive horse-slaughter in B.C. To the editor: Industry without ethics, capitalism without conscience—is tortured flesh the flavour of our times? The Canadian horse slaughter industry is an abomination. Within its harrowing abyss exist the theft of liberty, unpardonable anguish and the dismemberment of a noble icon. Advocates in favour of this industry present the folowing arguments for its existence: 1. Horses are meat—tasty meat for man. I want some. 2. Slaughterhouses humanely euthanize old, crippled and unwanted horses. 3. Slaughter controls over-population. 4. The industry provides employment. Different perceptions and the high ground we call morality oppose these arguments: 1 Horses are not meat to do with as we please. Throughout history, beside the footprints of man are the hoof prints of the horse. A pony is a child’s dream, a horse an adult’s treasure. This industry, however, transforms treasures and dreams into nightmares of betrayal. 2. Slaughterhouses do not humanely euthanize. They orchestrate terror and suffering. Over 90 per cent of their victims are young and healthy. Slaughter is not the answer to solve the aged, infirm, unwanted horse debate. Rescue sanctuaries, veterans working with horses, responsible ownership, tourism co-ops and ethical veterinarian care are a few viable solutions. 3. The slaughter business actually perpetuates over-population and callous kill buyers and unscrupulous profit mongers love it. 4. The industry does provide jobs including degrading kill floor work and cash counting corporate accounting. However, we should use ingenuity to create jobs that save rather than ones that kill. Bottom line: An industry that is heartless and cruel, an industry without ethics, should be no industry at all. Advocates for slaughter continue to define

death at the slaughterhouses as humane euthanasia. Propaganda. A load of fiction diction. Bogus rhetoric and covertness are cornerstones of their industry. The shipping of live draft horses to Japan so that their connoisseurs can enjoy freshly butchered horse sashimi is a national disgrace. Transportation to, and imprisonment in, slaughter house corrals is abusive, nefarious activity. And the final stages of the process—kill chutes, stun boxes, captive bolts to the head and dismemberment (of, at time, live horses) far overstep the boundaries of morality. Our Canadian culture has never embraced the concept of horse meat for human consumption. We should not be part of the foreign-driven ‘meat-man’s trade’ that ships befouled flesh overseas. Our horse is not a commodity to be exploited. This intelligent beast helped First Nations people survive, pulled our plows, laboured in mines, helped build our railroads. The horse stood beside— and died with—our soldiers on countless battlefields including the poppy-coated fields of Ypres and Flanders. Horses have entertained and joined us in recreational pursuits. They are a beloved companion. And, so often, they have provided hope and solace to troubled souls. the horse is the single most influential animal to affect mankind. To be a nation of dignity we must not turn a blind eye to the actions of the undignified. Our action, or inaction, is a compass for our children and for morality. It is time to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves— time for citizens and our newly elected federal politicians to stare this oppressive industry square in the face and declaim: “Not in our country!” Time to listen with our heart to the desperate call unspoken of our friend—the horse. It is the horse slaughter industry, not our ethics and our horses that should be in the graveyard. D. Fisher, Kelowna

Wild salmon habitat damage FROM A

provided Taseko with permission to increase its discharge of tailings into the Fraser River by more than 50 per cent at the Gibraltar Mine near Williams Lake, which could lead to even further shortfalls in coming years. Further to the increase of industrial effluents into critical wild salmon habitat we are also baring witness to the BC Ministry of Agriculture’s approval of four new fish farm tenures, despite the Cohen Commission’s recommendation to develop new citing criteria and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans continual promotion of the openpen fish farm operations of B.C.’s coastline, including the proposed expansion of the Maude Island site, facility number 869, from 860 t to 2640 t. These operations have determined negative consequences on wild salmon. It is clear to the FNWSA that immediate action must be taken to protect our

wild salmon for the benefit of all British Columbians and Canadians. A moratorium on the expansion of all finfish aquaculture ventures along the B.C. coast needs to be implemented until further evidence is gathered on the negative impacts these installations have on our wild salmon. This year’s runs have made it abundantly clear that our wild salmon stocks are in grave danger, and require immediate action to preserve their habitat. The First Nations Wild Salmon Alliance is calling on the federal government and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, to meet with the FNWSA to discuss the current state of wild salmon stocks, and to discuss the enactment of the Cohen Commission recommendations to safeguard our wild salmon. Given the urgency of this issue, we look forward to your prompt response. Chief Bob Chamberlin, chair The First Nations Wild Salmon Alliance

First horses, then dogs and cats To the editor: Much of my social activism has been about dogs. Letter-writer D. Fisher’s excellent appeal for the love of horses [previously posted online at kelownacapnews.com] was a necessary reminder that the horse is also much loved as a pet. Unfortunately, it is too often discarded to a meat auction when the owners can no longer keep if for whatever reason. The notion that when someone commits to “own” an animal, they also commit to ensure it receives a gentle demise, appears to be just that—a notion. How else can one explain an industry that thrives on the misery of former cherished pets? Today, there is not yet a commercial meat market for former pet cats or dogs in North America. That does not mean such a market will not come to these shores. As of January 27, 2015, the world’s human population was 7,290,912,784 and populations are growing at an alarming pace, even after allowing for death by wars, famine and disease. The prospect for animals is bleak, with more and more of them raised in factory farm conditions—all to satisfy the voracious appetite for meat, eggs and milk at affordable prices. But there is hope as long as people like D. Fisher take the time to speak or write a letter to the editor. Now I will do my small part for the sake of animals by enjoying a delicious glass of cool organic soy beverage, fortified with Vitamin B12. Helen Schiele, Kelowna

Bike helmets MICHAELS FROM A8

So then, why is there so much money going into campaigns aimed at helmet compliance? Why isn’t there a bigger push to make cycling a viable choice in more Canadian cities? This study is an important one, not because it will validate cruiser bike riders letting their locks flow, but because it puts the focus on cyclist safety where it should be— infrastructure and education. That’s not to say that my child will go helmet-free. He’s one step away from wearing full body armour everywhere, but that’s a different story. The point is, when it comes to Canadian policy-making something a little more effective than policing our persons would be nice to see.

Treatment for Chronic Foot Pain Available in Kelowna

ain in the feet is one of the most debilitating injuries we can be plagued with; it is felt in the arch of the foot (Plantar Fasciitis), the heel (Plantar Fasciitis or heel spur) or at the back of the ankle (Achilles Tendonitis). Unfortunately, we continuously use our feet, which makes healing from related injuries very difficult.

success, it gives up and healing stops. Shockwave Therapy breaks up scar tissue, restoring the function of the muscle and promoting new blood vessel growth, stimulating faster healing. In fact, in a double blind study published in Journal of the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society, 90%of patients suffering from heel and arch pain showed significant improvements with Shockwave. Furthermore, Shockwave Therapy (developed to break up kidney stones) has success rates of between 77%-91% in the treatment of other soft tissue conditions. Results are often experienced within a couple of visits and the treatment is covered by many insurance companies.

DR. RYAN HARRIS Glenmore Chiropractic

Plantar Fasciitis is an overuse injury affecting the fibrous tissue that forms the arch. Heel spurs can form when the fascia tears at the heel attachment and results in pain in the center of the heel. Achilles Tendonitis is irritation of the Achilles where the calf muscle meets the heel and can result in pain in the calf, the Achilles, or the back of the heel. The inflammation from overuse leads to pain as well as deposits of scar tissue, further inflaming the area each time the Achilles or plantar fascia are used. After the body has tried for weeks or months to heal the injury with no

Art in Empty Spaces exhibitions coming to a close in Rutland Since April, Rutland has been the home to a project called Art in Empty Spaces. It consists of a rotating group of exhibitions featuring art in unexpected spots. Modeled after similar projects in places like Portland, Ore., Art in Empty Spaces is a collaborative project between the Uptown Rutland Business Association and the Arts Council of the Central Okanagan. It activates unused storefront spaces by turning them into temporary art galleries. Since beginning in three locations in April, including the Willow Park Shopping Centre, Rutland Plaza and the second floor of the Valley First building, the Art in Empty Spaces program has offered 13 exhibitions and showcased the work of 18 local artists. Those participating artists included Cyndee Bannister, Mark

Beaulieau, Shannon Breadner, Jason Chan, Sea Dean, Daniel Dearborn, Colleen Dyson, Elsie Fellows, Cherie Hanson,Caley Krantz, Tina Knooihuizen, Maureen Lejbak, Sheldon Louis, Jolene Mackie, Gillian Rau, Marcela Valania and Bobby Vandenhoorn. Each artist involved was asked to reflect on the heritage of Rutland and feature what makes Rutland unique and beautiful to them. Kelowna artist Cherie Hanson, was particularly taken with the St. Aidan’s Anglican Church, located at 365 Rutland Road N. “My association with the church was established when I taught acting at Rutland Junior Secondary. My students wrote and performed versions of fairy tales that they made their own,” said Hanson. “The light coming through the windows, of what was at that time a day care centre, was

magical for the sharing of joy between teenagers and young children.” For the Uptown Rutland Business Association, bringing art up and into Rutland has excited the local business community to look for further opportunities to engage with art. Notary public Nick Aubin, of Aubin & Associates, is keen to provide a permanent venue for ARTSCO’s longstanding Artscape program. “We’re very pleased on the uptake on this project in the business community in Rutland,” said ARTSCO’s executive director Katie Brennan. “For me this is just the beginning of where I’d like to see art placed in the community”. The Art in Empty Spaces program runs until Nov. 25, when all the work is put up for auction for placement in local businesses and homes. To catch these community exhibitions,

check out the work of the following artists at the locations listed below before Nov. 25: • Mark Beaulieau, Maureen Lejbak and Colleen Dyson—Amir Market • Shannon Breadner— Raz D Salon • Marcela Valania— Benson Law LLP • Daniel Dearborn— Kelowna-Lake Countr MLA Norm Letnick’s office • Elsie Fellows, Cherie Hanson, Jolene Mackie— Uptown Rutland Business Association • Caley Krantz, Bobby Vandenhoorn & Jolene Mackie—Aubin & Associates Notaries Public • Bobby Vandenhoorn —Forsythe Chiropractic • Sea Dean and Cyndee Bannister—Rutland Plaza • Jason Chan, Rutland branch of the Okanagan Regional Library • Tina Knooihuizen, Shannon Breadner and Sheldon Pierre Louis, Valley First Credit Union • Gillian Rau, Aphrodite In Me Spa

Tire shop offers winter tire performance analysis Richard Rolke Contributor

How well will a set of tires brake at a slippery intersection, corner in a snowstorm, manoeuvre through puddles or push through slush? Now Canadians will know. Kal Tire is

the first tire retailer to independently test tires in Canada, in the same rugged conditions drivers face every winter. “We wanted to give drivers greater and more relevant information about how tires really perform in everyday winter conditions in

Canada, and we also wanted to be able to show people how threeseason (all-season), allweather and winter tires compare in their performance,” said Carey Hull, director retail products for Kal Tire. “Black ice, slush on the highway, slick

intersections—these are the kinds of situations where drivers get into trouble. “It was important we had the tires tested on surfaces in Canada that consumers face in real, everyday winter driving conditions.” In the first phase of Kal’s Tire testing, 12 passenger and seven light truck tires from the company’s core line-up of three-season, all-weather, and winter tire categories were subjected to 10

tests, including braking and cornering in dry, wet and ice conditions as well as hydroplaning, slush straight line stability, slush cornering and road noise. Key findings: Winter tires, on average, stopped 14.68 metres sooner on ice compared to threeseasons: Winter tires stopped in 30.1 metres All-weather tires stopped in 35.5 metres Three-season tires stopped in 44.8 metres

All-weather tires, on average, stop 77 centimetres sooner on wet pavement (from 70 kilometres an hour) and 33 centimetres sooner on dry pavement (from 90 kilometres an hour) compared to three-season tires. Winter tires are nearly three times better at holding corners on ice than three-seasons. Studless winter tires aren’t noisy. On average, all-weather and threeseason tires emitted the same amount of

This summer most areas of the province were under watering restrictions. Many experienced stage four (a complete ban on any outdoor water use). Restrictions are likely to be the norm from now on. In the past six weeks I have presented full length xeriscape workshops in Armstrong, Kamloops and Nanaimo as well as two local sessions of my class ‘Introduction to the Principles of Xeriscape.’ Many attending were avid gardeners who realize the need to make changes to their traditional landscapes. Initially this looks daunting. However change can be made in incremental steps. Here are some

Plants that got crispy leaves may need more shade. As trees grow bigger, sun-loving plants may end up in too much shade. If a plant needs different conditions to thrive, relocate it. If that’s not possible, consider giving it someone who has the right conditions. 3) Assess unhealthy plants. Often water-wise plants can fail to thrive or grow too big and floppy due to overwatering or too much fertilizer. Check to see if either of these might be causing

suggestions to get started: 1) Mulch everywhere: If you do nothing else, spreading a layer of organic matter such as your own compost, well-rotted manure or commercial products such as Glenmore Grow or Classic Compost over all bare ground will make a big difference. This can be done in early spring after a thorough weeding and when the ground is moist. Mulch helps retain moisture in the soil, greatly reduces weed growth, and feeds the plants in a natural way as soil micro-organisms break down the organic matter. Spreading a one-inch layer over lawn has the same effect. 2) Assess your plant’s water needs. Note the ones that managed well in the dry heat and those that needed more water. Plan to reorganize plants to group waterthirsty plants together, separate from ones that are drought- tolerant. This can be done by creating a new garden bed or even a nursery bed. A nursery bed is something temporary where plants are placed to grow until a more permanent location can be made for them. It

problems with your plants. Common examples are blue fescue grass, Artemesia ‘Silver Mound’ and Sedum ‘Autumn Joy.’ Alternately, some plants are just not suited to this climate. Plants that attract pests and diseases or fail to thrive take a lot more time and effort and never look their best. Consider replacing them with more resilient plants suited to the conditions.

ENTERTAINMENT: WHAT’S ON

One of the Irish Tenors coming to Kelowna

Tickets for ScottishCanadian tenor John McDermott go on sale today, Nov. 13. McDermott is best known for his rendering of the song Danny Boy. Born in Glasgow, Scotland, McDermott moved with his family to Toronto in 1965. Growing up in a musical family, his only formal musical training was at St. Michael’s Choir School in Toronto, in 1971 and 1972. He performed his first concert at the Rebecca Cohn Theatre on Oct. 5, 1993, in Halifax. From there he continued to tour the rest of Canada, performing as an opening act for The Chieftains. Throughout 1994,

CONCERT John McDermott April 23, 2016 7:30 p.m. Kelowna Community Theatre 1375 Water St.

One of the Three Irish Tenors, John McDermott, will perform in concert April 23, 2106, at Kelowna Community Theatre. he went on a tour of Australia and New Zealand, following the great success of Danny Boy, which had been ranked No. 1 on the charts there and achieved triple platinum in New

Zealand. Within a year he began to develop his own following, becoming the headliner at concerts after years of being the opening act for other performers.

He also began to appear at several special events including the D-Day ceremonies in France in 1995, and the United States Democratic National Convention in 1996. McDermott has appeared on television several times, both as a host of CBC Television concert specials in 1997, and in his own special titled John McDermott: A Time to Remember, which aired on PBS in 2002. He formed The Irish Tenors, and after performing a large concert in Dublin, Ireland, in 1998, the trio spent some time touring the United States, appearing on TV, and releasing an album. Since leaving the Irish Tenors, McDermott continues to tour extensively, performing with his own group and with the great symphonies of the world. He continues to work to support the veteran

community in the United States and in Canada. In 2000, McDermott dedicated McDermott House in Washington, D.C., a transitional home for homeless veterans. His latest album release, Journeys: Bringing Buddy Home, was recorded to help support fundraising for Fisher House Boston and launch the Canadian initiative for an outreach center for Canadian veterans.

Tickets go on sale today (Nov. 13), 10 a.m., at selectyourtickets.com or by calling 250-7625050 or at the Prospera Place box office. The tour is supporting Marianas Trench’s fourth studio album, Astoria, which debuted at #2 in the Canadian SoundScan charts and is currently at 33 on the U.S. album top 100. Of the current tour, Marianas Trench front man Josh Ramsay enthuses: “Mousse up that hair, throw on your best ripped acid wash, and get ready to join the fight to make dancing legal once again. Can you survive Astoria? The only other thing capable of generating that much energy is a bolt of lightning.” Known for their infectious sound and energetic performances, Marianas Trench have secured a spot as one of Canada’s most successful bands of the past decade,

building their name on relentless touring combined with two platinum sales albums, hit songs such as “Fallout,” Stutter” and “Haven’t Had Enough” and a Juno Award for group of the year in 2013. Ramsay also received a Grammy nomination in 2013 for co-writing and producing Carly Rae Jepsen’s breakthrough smash hit, “Call Me Maybe.” CONCERT Arsen Shomakhov Saturday, Nov. 14 Doors open 6:30 p.m. Mission Creek Golf Course banquet room 1959 KLO Rd.

Movie Guy

RICK DAVIS

While none of the new movie openings this weekend will likely challenge Spectre or The Peanuts Movie for box office returns, there are still some interesting options if you are looking for something different. The Christmas-themed movies start arriving this week with Love The Coopers, an ensemble comedy starring Diane Keaton, John Goodman, Alan Arkin, Amanda Seyfried, Anthony Mackie, Olivia Wilde and Ed Helms. The film follows multiple story lines as four generations of Cooper family members arrive

in various states of confusion, anger and duress. While it may not be the equal of the classic Love Actually as far as ensemble comedies go, it may be a light and funny diversion. The 33 is based upon the true story of the 33 Chilean miners who were trapped in a collapsed mine for more than two months in 2010. Antonio Banderas stars as Mario “Super Mario” Sepúlveda, the man who became the leader of the miners, dividing what limited food they had into rations and stopping the outbursts of violence or despair. The story cuts back and forth from the increasingly desperate men underground and their families and co-

Also in the cast are Lou Diamond Phillips and Juliette Binoche. The film is also notable for featuring one of the final musical scores by composer James Horner before he died in a plane crash.

Suffragette stars Carey Mulligan (Far From the Madding Crowd) as Maud, a working wife and mother whose life is forever changed when she is secretly recruited to join the U.K.’s growing suffragette movement.

Galvanized by the outlaw fugitive Emmeline Pankhurst (Meryl Streep), Maud becomes an activist for the cause alongside women from all walks of life. Their civil disobedience sparks not only aggressive police action but also debate throughout the nation. The critical darling of all the movies this weekend is Room, a unique and touching story of the boundless love between mother and child. After five-year-old Jack and his mother escape from the enclosed surrounding that Jack has known his entire life, the boy makes a thrilling discovery—the outside world. Starring Brie Larson (Trainwreck), Joan Allen (The Bourne series) and William H. Macy (TV’s Shameless), Room currently has a 96 per

cent Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes. With a cast that includes Bradley Cooper, Sienna Miller, Lily James, Uma Thurman, Daniel Brühl and Emma Thompson, one would think that Burnt would have a good chance of being a hit. However, the story of a two-star Michelin chef (Cooper) trying to rebuild his career after destroying it with drugs and diva behaviour failed to capture the taste buds of both critics and initial audiences. But don’t let that stop you from giving it a try— just expect hamburger instead of filet mignon, even though it reteams American Sniper co-stars Cooper and Miller. And for the best enjoyment, don’t watch it on an empty stomach.

The band’s second album, Twelvefour, has just been released, a followup to their critically acclaimed LP “States” in 2013. “Twelvefour is a concept album, based around the theory that an artists’ creative peak is between the hours of midnight and 4am,“ explained The Paper Kites lead singer Sam Bentley. “That idea turned into the heart of the project, so every night I’d sit down when the clock ticked over to midnight and just started writing.” The group has a high profile back home in Australia and a devoted online following with more than150,000 Facebook followers and 20 million music video views on YouTube. ••• CONCERT Matthew Good Monday Nov. 16 Kelowna Community Theatre 1375 Water St. In support of the highly anticipated release of his seventh solo album, Matthew Good will bring his Chaotic Neutral Tour to Kelowna.

Special fan lifts Warriors with a grin That smile has proven infectious on the team…Brendan reminds the players that life is bigger than hockey “I actually get to pick up the frisbees on the frisbee toss,” Brendan says with a grin spreading across his face.

Sawyer Klassen Officially, the West Kelowna Warriors of the BCHL are limited to 21 players on their roster on game day. Unofficially, this year they have 22. The extra player is seven-year-old Brendan who, since the start of the season has been an honorary team member. Brendan has idiopathic pulmonary hypertension which, in the short term, means he can’t exert himself. While Brendan is aware of what he has and that he can’t play hard, his parents haven’t told him how serious the disease is in the long term—they just want him to have fun and not worry. That’s where the Warriors come in. Defenseman Rylan Yaremko was visiting his

grandparents over the summer, and happened to meet Brendan’s grandparents. They began talking about hockey and then Brendan’s condition, and Yaremko instantly knew he had to do something. Fast forward to mid-November, and Brendan is almost always hanging out with the players in the locker room prior to games. “He’s been great. He comes in the room after a game and even if we lost everyone goes from being disappointed to having a big grin on their faces,” Yaremko described. “He’s a special kid, we love seeing him wearing our jersey and it gives us a little sense of pride.” Brendan’s role with the team isn’t restricted just to visiting before and after games. He also gets to go skating with them, and his favourite activity takes place during games. “I actually get to pick up the frisbees on the frisbee toss,” Brendan said with a large grin spreading across his face. That smile has proven

infectious on the team, leading to a relationship everyone benefits from. Brendan reminds the players that life is bigger than hockey, provides

He’s been great. He comes in the room after a game and even if we lost everyone goes from being disappointed to having a big grin on their faces. He’s a special kid, we love seeing him wearing our jersey and it gives us a little sense of pride.” Rylan Yaremko them with a tremendous motivational boost, and reminds them they’re fortunate for what they have. For Brendan, he gets to be involved with his favourite team in his favourite sport. Brendan attends most of the games, and as long as they don’t go past his

bedtime, he gets to stay to the end and hang out with the team after. “I spot him out in the stands most of the time, I know where he sits,” Yaremko said. “We look at each other, and it’s good to see him. I like looking at him throughout the game, he gets me going a little more.” While Brendan isn’t able to travel to road games with the Warriors, he is always with the team in the form of wristbands they all wear during games, which read ‘Phenomal Hope.’ When he is with the team Brendan is always smiling, and the players are always making him laugh, which Yaremko noted isn’t difficult to do as he’s a very funny and happy kid. What started out as a gesture to Brendan has grown into much, much more for everyone involved. He may be an honorary team member in title, but Brendan has truly become the 22nd member on the West Kelowna Warriors roster.

Merkley stands up well under intense schedule Kevin Parnell kparnell@kelownacapnews.com

Nick Merkley got a well deserved day off on Thursday. And the 18-year-old Rockets forward could certainly use it. On Wednesday Merkley completed a stretch of games that quite likely could have been the most demanding of his young career, including two games in Portland last weekend, two games with Team WHL Monday and Tuesday

Nick Merkley

and Wednesday’s home game with the Rockets, a stretch of five emotionally-charged games in six days. During the time he

had six WHL points, was named the WHL Player of the Week and on Wednesday capped it off with a shootout goal in a 2-1 Rockets win. “The coach told me I had a day off (Thursday) so that will be nice to sit around and relax a bit,” Merkley said after Wednesday’s game when he was one of the more effective Rockets players, being named the game’s third star and scoring one of the Rockets shootout goals in the win over Vancouver.

“It’s been a fun week and it’s going to be exciting moving forward.” Rockets coach Brad Ralph said he was impressed with Merkley’s performance during a time when the young player had plenty of pressure to deal with. “We played in Tri-City and then played two very emotional games in Portland and Nick was named WHL player of the week so that speaks to how well he played,” said Ralph. “Then to

play the two CanadaRussia games where I thought he played well. Emotionally there is a lot involved. There is a lot of pressure. Then he came back for our afternoon game Wednesday and he was a difference maker for us. It’s a testament to the type of player he is.” After Merkley helped the Rockets to the two wins in Portland on Friday and Saturday nights, he flew home on Sunday and joined the rest of the Team WHL members at Prospera Place for a

media event prior to the start of the 2015 CanadaRussia Series. He played Monday in Kelowna and Tuesday in Kamloops for Team WHL, before returning on a late night bus Tuesday and hitting the ice for an afternoon game Wednesday back in Kelowna. Merkley said while there was plenty of travel, he had prepared during the summer for what would be a busy year, including his attempt to make Team Canada’s

World Junior team. “I felt pretty good,” said Merkley about Wednesday’s game. “These are the things you work for in the sumer. It’s nice to play like that after a long week. The Canada Russia series was fun. It was good to see all of those guys and it was a great experience overall.” Merkley and the Rockets are back in action this weekend, playing in Spokane on Saturday night. @KP_media1

Skaters from the Kelowna Skating Club and Centre of Excellence traveled to Coquitlam for the BC and Yukon Sectional Championships last week. They came home with nine medals. A highlight for the Kelowna contingent of 26 skaters occurred in the Novice Women’s division, as 12 year-old Olivia Gran captured the provincial title with a personal-best score of 127.06 points. Gran also won the event’s Artistic Award, and with her top-four finish, a qualifying berth to the Skate Canada Challenge next month. At the Pre-Novice level, 11-year-old Ashley Sales also had a personal-best, scoring 96.87 points in securing the silver medal and a spot on the BC/YK Team. Mikayla Kramer, who

Nov. 11 big day for Chiefs The Kelowna Chiefs had a day to remember on Remembrance Day, beginning with the honour of marching to the Rutland Cenotaph at Lion’s Park and ending with Brody Dale scoring his first two KIJHL goals in a 5-1 victory over the division leading Osoyoos Coyotes. Captain Ryan Lawson was joined by alternate captains Josh Baird, Dakota Kittle and injured Kevin Roth laying a wreath at the Lion’s Park Cenotaph in Rutland following the march. Brody Dale, Kohlman Brinsky and Tyler Love took part as flag bearers with the rest of the team following in the march

as well. Following a disappointing weekend where they dropped two of three games, the Chiefs got off to a good start leading Osoyoos 1-0 at end the first period. In the second the sixteen year old Dale marked his first KIJHL goal that also turned out to be the winning goal. His brother Brady Dale would assist on the goal with a chip pass into the slot and the Chiefs led 2-0. The Dale brothers each scored in the third period as Kelowna increased its lead to 5-0 and Osoyoos was left with simply setting a tone for Saturday’s rematch. They did put one past Chiefs

starter Brady Lenardon (32 saves) who was solid in picking up his 10th win this season, 5-1 for the Chiefs. Brody Dale was named game star for the Chiefs after picking up two goals on the night along with an assist. Osoyoos forward Jackson Gimpel who assisted on their lone goal was named game star for the Coyotes. The Chiefs next game is this Friday at Rutland Arena when they host the Spokane Braves (315-0). It’s a special night with the Kelowna Gospel Mission and RamponeMarsh Mortgages inaugural Coats for Kelowna donation drive.

(fourth place) and the event’s Artistic Award on the strength of her 91.49 points finish, also a personal-best. At the Senior level, Kelowna skaters Julianne Delaurier and Cailey England finished third and fourth respectively, securing berths on the BC/YK Team. Both skaters are former National silver medalists at the Junior level. In this year’s crop of Junior Women, Rachel Pettitt, who also represents the Arctic Edge club but trains in Kelowna, skated to a personal-best points total of 139.15, as well as winning the Artistic Award. Her training mates Mckenna Colthorp and Ajsha Gorman, who finished fifth and sixth respectively, will join her on the BC/YK Team. In the Junior Men’s event, Kelly Basisty won

the silver medal and secured a BC/YK Team berth. Emma Bulawka, 12, represents the Royal Glenora Club in Edmonton, but trains in Kelowna, won the Novice women’s title. Her sister Abby finished 4th, just one hundredth of a point shy of the bronze medal. The Kelowna club also showed promise at the developmental levels, as 10 year-old Vienna Harwood captured bronze in the Juvenile Women under 12 event, while Brooklyn Cowen won silver in Pre-Juvenile Women under 11. “These are very good results,” said KSC Director and coach Jason Mongrain. “B.C. has many outstanding skaters so it is promising to see that we had very competitive performances and good depth at all levels.”

Sixteen-year-old Kelowna Chiefs rookie Brody Dale had a stellar week with the Chiefs. The rookie forward scored his first two goals of the season with Kelowna as the Chiefs beat Osoyoos 5-1 on Wednesday at Rutland Arena. In 18 previous games with the Chiefs the rookie had posted several assists but finally broke through with a pair of goals on Wednesday and now has two goals and 15 points during his rookie junior hockey campaign.

HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL

Mt. Boucherie off to playoffs; Voodoos done for the season sawyer.klassen@kelownacapnews.com

The Mount Boucherie Bears senior and junior varsity football teams are heading to the playoffs. The senior team defeated Lord Tweedsmuir 38-21 in its regular season finale to finish with a 2-4 record, which easily could have been a 3-3 record as the loss to St. Thomas More Collegiate was the result

of a coin toss. When the two teams played, they were tied at the end of regulation. The game was supposed to advance to a sudden death overtime, but the refs were unaware and ended the game as a tie. The BC High School Football directors elected to flip a coin to determine the winner of the game, and STMC won the toss. As a result, the senior varsity team will open

the playoffs against defending champion South Delta on Friday, 4:30 p.m. at Burnaby Lakes Field. The Bears JV team also won its final regular season game, defeating Terry Fox 27-13. The win gave the Bears a first place finish in the Eastern Conference, placing ahead of Terry Fox, Lord Tweedsmuir, STMC and KSS. However, Mount Boucherie will enter the

Encore Theatre in West Kelowna is the site of an upcoming dual fundraiser. Freestyle skier Mason Barzilay is hosting her third annual Warren Miller film as a way to raise money for her own skiing career and also the West Kelowna skate park. This year’s movie is titled Chasing Shadows and is Warren Miller’s 66th annual snow sports film. The film centres

around multiple athletes as they pursue skiing and snowboarding on the mountains of their dreams; Chamonis, Alaska’s Chugach,

Utah’s Wasatch and the Himalayas. “Not only will this fundraiser be raising funds for my skiing career, but it will also be a chance to raise funds for other athletes, skateboarders on the Westside,” Brazilay said. Barzilay’s goal is to make the Canadian National Team in moguls, but reaching that level requires quite a budget. An average year runs at a cost of $10,000 to $30,000, meaning the

20 year old skier has a lot of fundraising to do when she isn’t in school or training. The tickets are $15 each, and donations will also be able to be made to the City of West Kelowna for it’s new skate park project. Doors open at 6 p.m., and the show starts at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 19. Tickets can be purchased at Blenz in West Kelowna, 19 at Two Eagles, Clothes Pin Laundromat and Freeride Board Shop.

news _____________________________________________________________________ WORLD DAY OF REMEMBRANCE

Ceremony to commemorate the victims of fatal traffic accidents A solemn day of remembrance has just passed. It was a particularly poignant one for me because I attended a Remembrance Day ceremony at the elementary school for my two youngest children. Morgan, the older of the two, had small speaking and solo singing parts, while Caden joined his big sister in the choir. The poignancy for me had to do with these innocent children beginning to catch a glimpse of the horrors of war, a glimpse that must be built on if the purpose of Remembrance Day has a hope of being realized. Another Remembrance Day, about 25 years ago, continues to burn in my mind. A reservist in a Regina communications squadron at the time, I had the honour of joining three other cenotaph sentries on a nippy Nov. 11, each of us standing perfectly still, white gloves on the butts of our downturned rifles in honour of the tremendous sacrifices. As I imagined my fingers developing frostbite, my own glimpse of what those who have served us sacrificed became somewhat more clear. But another solemn day of remembrance is just around the corner. A World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims was initiated by an organization called RoadPeace, in 1993. The United Nations provided international

Christmas artisans market Christmas Artisan Gift Shop will be held Friday, Dec. 4, 4 to 10 p.m., and Saturday, Dec. 5, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., at the East Kelowna Community Hall, 2704 East Kelowna Rd. Admission is donation to the food bank. The event will feature about 50 of the Okanagan Valley’s finest artists. It is intended to be a fun, casual shopping experience for unique hand-crafted gifts, along with many door prizes.

Achieving Justice PAUL HERGOTT endorsement in 2005, declaring the third Sunday in November as the day of remembrance. Why? A staggering 215,000 people are injured every single day in road traffic incidents; approximately 3,500, daily, are killed. Canada followed suit, and in 2008 we declared the Wednesday following the third Sunday in November to be the National Day of Remembrance for Road Crash Victims. Is this a Third World problem that doesn’t face us in Canada? More Canadians have been killed in road traffic incidents than were killed in both world wars. Every day and a half, someone in British Columbia is killed in a road traffic incident. Every 6 1/2 minutes,

someone is injured. There is a national website where events commemorating this important day of remembrance can be registered. As of my typing of this column, there are only three registrations for all of Canada, the others being in Fort McMurray, Alberta, and Bridgewater, Nova Scotia. I invite you to join me along with several other local officials: • Kelowna Mayor Colin Basran • West Kelowna Mayor Doug Findlater • Either Cpl. Joe Duncan or Cst. Steve Holmes from Kelowna RCMP • Local fire chiefs Jeff Carlisle (Kelowna) and Jason Brolund (West Kelowna) • Glenn Brathwaite, duty supervisor, BC Ambulance Services • A representative of ICBC • Magda Kapp, with BrainTrust Canada

• Tina Harder and Eva Gainer, with Mothers Against Drunk Drivers • Dave Gibson, School District 23 regional traffic safety officer • Eric Ledding, with Kelowna and District Safety Council • Calum MacMillan, with Young Drivers of Canada. The ceremony takes place Wednesday, Nov. 18, 5 p.m., at the Orchard Park Mall parking lot, corner of Dilworth and Highway 97, for the fourth annual Kelowna commemoration of this important day. It will be cold and dark, but the floodlight of a Kelowna Fire Department ladder truck will help us alongside the rushing sound of traffic at one of the city’s most dangerous intersections. Let us remember those killed and suffering injuries from road traffic incidents. Paul Hergott is a personal injury lawyer at Hergott Law in West Kelowna. paul@hlaw.ca

UBCO students vote in support of U-Pass transit rate increase UBC Okanagan students voted 84 per cent in favour of a transit U-Pass rate increase in a referendum held Nov. 4 and 5. Some 922 out of 1,102 eligible voted in the referendum. “We are extremely pleased with the level of student engagement in this year’s referendum,” said Jerry Dombowsky, regional programs

manager for the City of Kelowna. “The votes in favour demonstrates that the U-Pass is a highly-valued program that students want to see continue in the years ahead.” The U-Pass is a special universal transit pass that is part of student fees for all students, allowing for a greatly discounted rate that helps make student transportation more affordable.

INTERIOR SAVINGS DONATION

Providing a helping hand for youth at risk The Interior Savings Community Investment Fund has made a donation of $4,898 to the Connected By 25 (CB25) youth program operated by the Kelowna branch of the Canadian Mental Health Association. The money will help purchase equipment that will provide youth atrisk with tools and skills for life while creating opportunities for social connection and inclusion through activity. Connected By 25 is focused on connecting youth vulnerable in their transition to adulthood, to the services and supports needed to live a successful life. Mental illness can profoundly impact every aspect of a young person’s life including their ability to socialize, to focus, to problemsolve, and to cope with everyday life stressors.

Heritage to stuff its bus The Heritage Retirement Residence of West Kelowna plans to stuff the facility bus with toys and goodies for children on Nov. 14 to assist the Salvation Army Christmas Hamper fund. In July, The Heritage collected more than 1,500 lbs of food for the food bank. “We found that campaign so successful that we wanted to repeat the event, only this time for children in need,” said Jennifer Larose, sales associates with The Heritage. “We chose to partner with The Salvation Army for collecting donations after looking at some of their statistics. Did you know that last year alone 85,000 children received toys from the Salvation Army at Christmas? That it is the largest non-governmental direct provider of social services in the country, serving over 1.8 million people each year in 400 communities across Canada. We are thrilled to be a part of that kind of community support.”

This combined with the normal challenges of adolescence put young people with mental illness at-risk of falling through the cracks. “Support from Interior Savings allows us to acquire equipment for group activities which provide young people with increased access to opportunities where they can connect with others, build relationships, a sense of belonging and inclusion, while building skills in a fun and safe environment,” said Mike Gawliuk, director of program innovation and service delivery for CMHA Kelowna. The Interior Savings Community Investment Fund provides one-time donations to support the development or expansion of sustainable programs that improve community wellbeing, particularly in the areas

of youth, health and economic development. “We’re thrilled to lend our support to CMHA Kelowna and the Connected by 25 program,”said Kathy Conway, chief executive officer of Interior Savings. “It’s rewarding to know that our investment is helping local youth connect with the people, services and supports they need, at a time when they really need it.” With community need growing rapidly and no government funding of this program, community support becomes crucial to keep the services going. CMHA Kelowna is a charitable organization committed to mental health and wellness in our community through advocacy, education, research and service. For more information about CMHA programs

and services or to learn how you can help, please call 250-861-3644 or

Riders at the A Bar A Guest Ranch in Wyoming ride alongside the North Platte River, headed up to an evening cookout at Slim’s Draw.

Explore Wyoming’s wide open spaces Pam LeBlanc contributor

I’ve dreamed since I was a little girl about what it would be like to live in the Old West. I’d ride a paint horse, gallop through windswept prairies and duck into thickly forested mountains on the lookout for mountain lions. I’d eat biscuits for breakfast, walk a horse through a river and cook dinner over a campfire, but never experience any of the harshness of real life on the frontier. Which is pretty much how things have unfolded in the five days I’ve spent at the A Bar A Guest Ranch in southern Wyoming. The A Bar A is the stuff of perfection: Wideopen spaces, a river for fly fishing and horses to help you explore, balanced with soft beds, gourmet meals and other people who feel the same way about nature as you do. The land, nestled along the North Platte River, was first homesteaded in 1885. Andy

Anderson and Edward Hubbell, two young Princeton graduates who dreamed of raising cattle, bought it in 1922. They moved west with their wives and named their new home the A Bar H. When curious friends from back home began visiting, the idea of a combination cattle operation and guest ranch was born. The guest ranch was successful right away, but, according to ranch lore, the two wives grew incompatible. In 1932, the families decided to flip a silver dollar to determine the ranch’s fate. The Andersons won, and purchased the Hubbells’ portion. The Hubbells packed up and moved to Arizona, and the Andersons renamed the ranch the A Bar A. The ranch, now owned by a Denver-based family, has been in continuous operation for 92 years. Parts of the property operate as a working cattle ranch. Honestly, not all that much has changed in the last 50 years or so. “That’s by design,” says Justin Howe, who grew up at the ranch when his parents

managed it and has run it alongside his wife, Lissa, for the last eight years. “We’re careful to keep it like it was. If you came 30 years ago, the feeling remains the same.” Take my favourite activity: The trail ride to Slim’s Draw for a cookout. We mount up at about 3:30 p.m., slosh our horses through the sparkling North Platte River, clatter up a steep ridge and cross miles of meadows waving with gray-green grass. At Slim’s, high on a mesa top, we hand over our horses and perch on boulders, softly talking as the sun sets. Steaks and burgers sizzle on a barbecue pit, and a few musicians strum guitars. When stars start glittering against a velvet sky, we tug on jackets and gloves and climb back on our horses for the hour-and-ahalf moonlit ride back. Guests have been making this same trek for decades, and it’s one I’ll never forget—that and the moment I catch a rainbow trout while fly fishing with a very patient guide in a creek that runs through the property.

moments, too: hiking to the top of Overlook Hill and gazing back at the ranch far below, watching the wranglers bring in the horse herd as the sun rises, listening to bluegrass music in the ranch’s historic Round Room, admiring a bald eagle perched in a tree, and curling up with a novel borrowed from a cozy cabin that doubles as the ranch library. “We’re stewards of a lot of peoples’ memories,” Howe says. Guests—about 100 per week during the four summer months the ranch is open—stay in rustic-yet-comfortable houses, small lodges and cabins on the property. Each is unique; some date to the 1880s. It’s the people here—guests and staff—who create the magic. Without TVs or telephones, and with limited Internet access, the focus is on community and experiencing life as it unfolds.

“When I looked in the backseat, I saw the 4-year-old and 7-yearold were weeping,” he says. “Then I looked to my right—and so was my wife.” It’s hard to wrap up a stay at the A Bar A. At home in Austin, I feel constantly twitchy from the stresses of life in the city. Out here, I can breath more deeply and soak in the passing minutes more attentively. That’s just the feeling that ranch manager Lissa Howe hopes lingers after her guests leave. “I hope they take with them the sense that

horseback after breakfast, sandwiches and apples tucked into our saddlebags and a sense of adventure in our hearts. At the top of a ridge, I look in all directions and can’t see a road, a car, a building or any other sign of development. Across the valley, aspens shimmer in gold and orange. “Nature speaks to me here,” says Melanie Glenn, 57. She and her husband, Lyles, 58, started coming here 20 years ago with their two daughters. Lyles still remembers leaving the ranch that first time.

Wranglers bring in the horse herd early on a September morning at the A Bar A Guest Ranch in Wyoming. They call it the “jingle.”

talk of a moose that has appeared outside one cabin. Friendships bud on horseback or during hikes. There’s a swimming pool, tennis courts, a shooting range and a nine-hole golf course. “It’s that ability to take a breath—step away from the frenetic pace that is modern day,” Howe says. His mother, Margie Howe, worked as ranch manager for 27 years. She puts it a different way: “There’s a heart here. We’ve had people say, ‘This place is the reason my family is strong and still together.’” It’s easy to fall under the spell, especially if you’re a horse lover. Some guests spend all day riding, either with a guide or, if they’re skilled enough, on their own—with a two-way radio in hand in case of emergency. This isn’t the tail-to-nose procession of hard-worn horses the words “dude ranch” might conjure—it’s free rein to roam hundreds of miles of trails over tens of thousands of acres. “It has that feel of being very much of a ranch, so you get a feeling for the beauty of the cowboy experience and the Old West,” says Garrett Dee, 51, an attorney from Chicago who worked here as a wrangler in 1987 and has returned with her husband for a visit. “It gets into the very core of who you are. As far as you can hike or ride or drive, there’s nothing but spectacular vistas. It’s so wonderfully, breathtakingly beautiful.” Others don waders and head to the river or

creek, where they cast for rainbow or brown trout, reveling in the bigness of the place and the quiet of the land as much as the quest to catch a fish. “Every time I come out I find myself in a place where you can’t see any sign of human beings—no jet contrails, no fences,” says photographer and bluegrass musician Will McIntyre, who first came in 2002. Since then, he and his wife have published a coffee table book about the A Bar A and its two sister ranches. I find myself at one of those remote places on my last full day at the ranch, desperately trying to singe the image into my subconscious. We struck out on

The 2016 Cadenza entry-level luxury sedan is Kia’s best-kept secret. But where it fits in the ever-expanding list of sub-segments is a bit of a mystery. It’s bigger than the full-size K900 flagship sedan, but larger than the mid-size Optima. Kia itself describes the Cadenza as in-between the two. At almost five metres long (4,970 mm) and with a wheelbase of 2,845 mm, that’s a full-size sedan to me. Especially considering that rear legroom is 935 mm, the passenger volume is 3,025 litres and the trunk boasts 451 litres of space. And just to confuse you more, in 2014 J.D. Power named the Cadenza the “highest ranked large car” in one of its regular initial quality surveys. The Cadenza is powered by Kia’s trusty all-aluminum, direct injection V6 with 293 hp and 255 lb/ft of torque driving the front wheels through a six-speed Sportmatic automatic transmission. All-wheel-drive is not available.

KIA Cadenza engine.

KIA Cadenza back seat. Running on regular fuel, fuel consumption is rated at 12.7/8.4L/100 km city-highway. Suspension is MacPherson struts with gas shocks and stabilizer bar at the front and a multi-link system with gas shocks at the rear. There are three trim levels with the base car starting at $37,995. I counted 33 standard features (too long to list here) but some include: eight-way power driver’s seat and four-way passenger seat both with dual-stage heat; dual zone climate control; rear camera and parking sensors; navigation system and Infinity 12-speaker audio system. The mid-trim Premium at $41,995 adds even more with panoramic sunroof, adaptive HID headlights, electric rear sun curtain, heated steering wheel and heated windshield wipers, premium leather seating and more. Tested here is the Tech at $47,595 that gives the passenger eight-way power seating, smart cruise control, blind spot and lane departure alert, and get this, a rear armrest with USB charger.

three modes – Comfort, Normal and Sport. Normal is for everyday driving, while Comfort is for highway cruising. Sport tightens steering wheel response to improve handling. The Cadenza is equipped with a full suite of driver safety aids including ABS, traction control, Vehicle Stability Management, Electronic Stability Control, Electronic Brake Force Distribution, Brake Assist System and Hill Start Assist Control. This is a great highway car and I used it to its fullest advantage, covering just under 1,000 km, including a drive down to Windsor for my high school reunion. That meant I used the adaptive cruise control that is found on the Tech quite a bit. It activated very smoothly, slowing me gently as I came up on a slower car and picking up speed quickly as I pulled around to pass. I didn’t like these things at first because of the feeling of not being in full control, but I have to admit it’s growing on me.

KIA Cadenza interior. With such a long wheelbase, the ride is supple with the “Comfort” FlexSteer setting being perfect for this. Noise intrusion was minimal. After a long drive this is the kind of car you emerge from relaxed. During the drive I had a lot of time to play around with the infotainment system, with the map/destinations

CONTRIBUTED

I plugged in being sharp and bright on the eight-inch centre stack touch screen. The 12-speaker Infinity sound system with SiriusXM was great and I really enjoyed having Plash Phelps from 60 on 6 along for the ride over several days. Adding to the experience was the driver’s seat power cushion extender. An interesting feature on

the Cadenza is available front door windows with hydrophobic glass that actually repel water, and instantly, according to Kia. The 2016 Kia Cadenza has it all and should be in every entry-level buyer’s list. It’s really a diamond in the ruff. What’s Best: A full-size luxury sedan for a mid-size price.

What’s Worst: Lack of allwheel-drive, which more and more consumers expect at this level. What’s Interesting: Why is has Cadenza slipped below the radar of most buyers in the entry luxury segment? Jim Robinson is an automotive reporter for Metroland Media. Wheels.ca

THUAN LE April 10, 1967 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; November 13, 2009 This poem is a tribute to our friend, husband, and father â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thuan Leâ&#x20AC;?, who left us all so suddenly. A gentle man though small and kind â&#x20AC;ŚHe was a giant in my mind. In Saigon, Vietnam he was born â&#x20AC;Śa place that war and pain had torn. But dreams were never far from Le â&#x20AC;Śa better life he knew heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d see. With his sisterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in a boat â&#x20AC;Śaway to freedom they would float. It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t easy, life was hard â&#x20AC;Śbut heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be dealt a better card. Canada he would call his home â&#x20AC;Śa place where he could freely roam. The Okanagan seemed just right â&#x20AC;Śso Le arrived by morning flight. At farming, cooking he would work â&#x20AC;Śthere was no job that he would shirk. He thought Alberta might be grand â&#x20AC;Śhe went there to give a helpful hand. Prejudice didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get him down â&#x20AC;Śheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d just laugh, no time to frown. Then Kelowna called him back â&#x20AC;Śperhaps a family right on track. A little store at â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shops Capriâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;Śbrought Aranka right to Le. How he loved his â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lady Fairâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;Śbeautiful children she would bear. He loved them all, his family dear â&#x20AC;Śhe was so proud when they were near. He loved to cook ...he loved to give, his life was full â&#x20AC;Śhe loved to live. He and Gil were quite the pair, work to do with time to spare. First at Costco, then at school â&#x20AC;Śmake it gleam became the rule. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everything Shinyâ&#x20AC;? he would say â&#x20AC;Śâ&#x20AC;?Do my bestâ&#x20AC;? it was his way. Always with a helping hand â&#x20AC;Śgive to others was his stand. He worked so hard and barely slept â&#x20AC;Śhis family in his heart he kept. And then one day he fell asleep â&#x20AC;Śnow in our hearts â&#x20AC;Śitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Leâ&#x20AC;? weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll keep. For he was willing, strong, and true Thuan Le â&#x20AC;ŚWeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll love and remember you.
