Cranbrook veteran’s grave finally complete

ARNE PETRYSHEN

A veteran who died in 1943 while on leave from the army will finally have the correct dates on his headstone. Up until now the headstone of Aircraftman 1st Class Gerald Ward Bradford had read that he had died in 1945, however he had died in 1943. On Tuesday morning, Larry Miller and Bob Muir, from the Legion Veterans Cemetery committee, dug out the old headstone and laid down the new one in its place. Miller said it was a member of Bradford’s family that pointed out the error. “It was brought to our attention that the date was wrong on the headstone,” said Miller. Miller said he couldn’t initially recall which year Bradford had died, but found an article in the Townsman archive covering the funeral from 1943. The article states that Bradford was 21 when he was killed in a motorcycle accident near Gal-

loway, while returning to his RCAF base at Macleod. Bradford was accorded a military funeral, with firing party and sounding of “Last Post.” There was a military escort of 16 men from the Second Battalion Rocky Mountain Rangers at the funeral conducted by Rev. Canon F. V. Harrison. Miller said he wasn’t sure how the error of dates occurred. “I don’t know how they got the wrong information, it’s so many years ago now,” he said. Bradford’s headstone qualified for the the Last Post Fund, which covers the gravestones of deceased veterans. Once an application goes in to the Last Post Fund it can take several months before the stone arrives. In this case, Miller said it took four months. It arrived on Monday, so on Tuesday Miller and Muir went out to replace the old headstone with the new one.

Cranbrook, Kimberley join sales forces A collaborative development initiative to attract industrial revenue is underway

CAROLYN GRANT AND ARNE PETRYSHEN

From the moment Don McCormick began campaigning for mayor in 2014, one of the things he spoke most about was regional economic development. Which is why he is very

keen to make a success of a new venture, the Cranbrook Kimberley Development Initiative. An initial meeting has been held with local business people and McCormick says he was pleased with the buy in on the idea.

Aug 19 Oct 7 Oct 13 Oct 18 Oct 23 Nov 9

“We have to make this a success,” he said. “Cranbrook has the same problems we do with industrial taxes. There aren’t much of them. Our millrates are some of the highest in the region. We have to find new sources of industrial revenue.”

McCormick says an advisory committee has been formed and businesses got together to talk strategy. He says the Columbia Basin Trust is also interested in the potential of the idea but said that the business community had to be involved.

“So we morphed the direction a little to get buy in. We want to create a fund to promote the Cranbrook Kimberley business corridor, to market why this is a good place to do business. “There are cost advantages for set up and operations.

Cities join forces Continued from page 1 K i m b e r l e y / C ra n brook are not competing so much with towns the same size for business, McCormick says, but with far more populated areas. “We have a package we can put together for specific industries we are targeting. Lee (Pratt, Cranbrook Mayor) and I will be the salesmen. “We are fast-tracking this. We’ve gone to a number of businesses in the community and said ‘here’s what we are doing’, and asked for $5,000 from each. Our goal is a fund of $250,000 and that will enable us to leverage matching funds. That will give us half a million dollars to do sales and marketing.” McCormick says 60 businesses attended the initial meeting in Cranbrook and 31 committed $5,000 on the spot. “The response has been really positive. We have a website under development. We are on a fast track with this. One hundred per cent of the money will be spent on sales and marketing. There is no staff though city staffs will provide some help. “We created a non-profit Cranbrook Kimberley Development Initiative Society and the comptroller at New Dawn will watch the funds. There will be a board of directors and oversight on the money. It’s a good organization we have in place.” McCormick says that they even have their first lead. “Leads come in from all over and this one is a long shot, but Molsons is looking to move a brewery in B.C. These are the kind of things we need to stay on top of.” Even if that one doesn’t pan out, McCormick says that aggressively pursuing every lead that comes along will eventually lead to some success. Cranbrook mayor Lee Pratt noted they have a business plan in place and a early budget in the works. “We’re really excited,” Pratt said. “The business community has really bought into it; it’s their initiative more than ours, without them we wouldn’t be where we’re at, that’s for sure.”

Pratt said with the investment from businesses, they will look for matching funding and then leverage the money. “Our target was 50 business at $5,000 each, and then Cranbrook, Kimberley and the regional district put in some money,” Pratt said. “And what we’re hoping to do is leverage that up to somewhere around $500,000 to $600,000.” He also noted the money will be used strictly for sales and marketing, and said there would not be anything in the way of administration. “Predominantly, that’s what’s happened in the past with economic development commissions,” Pratt said. He said said both he and McCormick are successful sales guys. “We both know what it takes to make things happen, so that’s the path we’re going on,” he said. Pratt said it is all coming together with the business plan in place, as well as marketing and sales plans and the target list of industries to pursue. “We’re doing some networking with some of the existing businesses and some other that connected with some good input, and could possibly give us some leads on their centres of influence, their networking and the people they deal with,” Pratt said. Pratt said because the initiative is a non-profit society, the businesses won’t get a direct return in dividends or things like that. “What they’re hoping, just like us, is we’re going to increase the business, bring in industry to Cranbrook and increase jobs and employment,” he said, adding that with that comes an increased tax base and the helps to keep the tax rates level or even could bring them down. “More people, more homes, more business — I mean everybody that’s in business could always use more customers, so if we’re successful on that, it all filters down through the community,” he said.

City snow removal operations ready to go For the Townsman

The snowy weather has begun to arrive in the region and City of Cranbrook Public Works staff is ready to clear, salt and sand City streets at a moment’s notice. In order to help keep the public safe and mobile during the winter months, the City is asking residents and businesses to help out by keeping streets and sidewalks clear of snow and ice. “During and following major snowfalls, our snow removal operation runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and operates with a small fleet of vehi-

cles; four salt/sand trucks with belly plows, two graders and two loaders.” says Joe McGowan, Director of Public Works. “With this schedule and the equipment we have, it is reasonable to expect most areas of the City to be cleared within 3 or 4 days of a snowfall, depending on the amount of snow and how fast it comes down.” Clearing snow is not just the responsibility of Public Works, which does the best they can with the resources available to keep the community moving during the winter months. Responsibility also

lies with each resident and business owner to help clear around their home or business. “Regularly clearing ice and snow from your sidewalks and driveways will allow much easier access to your property by the fire department, RCMP or paramedics should an accident or other emergencies happen,” says Wayne Price, Director of Cranbrook Fire and Emergency Services. Avoiding leaving your vehicle parked on the street during snowfalls wherever possible will also help make clearing the streets easier for City

plows. Residents are also asked to please avoid pushing or blowing snow from their sidewalks, driveways and any windrows back into the street, after the City plows have been by. “It creates issues for our crews, as the plow will need to make an additional run down your street to clean it up,” says McGowan. “That additional run increases the City’s costs with additional staff time, fuel and equipment wear and tear, not to mention delays in getting to other areas of the City that also need to be plowed.”

And since the Conservative government cut back on offices — there are only two in Canada, one in Surrey and one in Halifax, the wait time will likely increase. “We used to have one in

Edmonton and there used to be one in Winnipeg and different places,” he said. “They cut all the rest off.” The committee has put a lot of work into the veteran cemetery — including getting

30 headstones for formerly unmarked veteran graves. “And there were over 100 that we straightened up, relined and re-set up,” he said. “We just utterly went through this whole cemetery here and have redone it. It was in a state

of disrepair for years.” They also redid the sprinkler system to get the water running properly. They both agreed it is in good shape now, and the city has taken over the land work, such as mowing.

Miracle on Baker Street will raise money for homeless shelter Submit ted

On December 11 nearly 20 influential community leaders and Cranbrook business owners will strip down to their Christmas undies and brave the cold to raise $20,000 in support of the Salvation Army’s efforts to build a 24/7 shelter in Cranbrook for homeless men, women, and families throughout the East Kootenay. In order to keep the icicles from forming on their bodies, the participants will need to donate money every half hour to gain access to entertaining “warm-up” activities, sponsored by a local business. Meanwhile, donations will be

collected from the public to meet an hourly fundraising goal, which if achieved, will keep the participants exposed to the elements and donating another additional hour. The event, Miracle on Baker Street, takes place noon to 4 p.m. on Baker Street in front of the Bedroom Furniture Galleries, downtown Cranbrook. Leo Baggio, general manager of B-104 Total Country and The Drive FM, who are presenting the event, said Miracle on Baker Street is a spirited event that will bring a lot of laughs, comraderies, and a few surprises. “We have convinced a group of well-known

and professional men to strip down to their underwear in what could be sub-zero temperatures while we throw a twist at them every half hour, all in the name of charity — it’s going to be, quite simply, awesome,” said Baggio. One of these participants stripping down in the name of charity is Derek Korstchaga, Cranbrook’s Citizen of the Year. Kortschaga chose to participate because he recognizes the importance of supporting vulnerable populations in our community that can often be overlooked. “Our homeless are an invisible minority in our community,” said Korts-

chaga. “They can be right in front of us yet unseen. This event will help draw attention to their plight and the efforts being made to help by our Salvation Army. I am honoured to stand up with our business community in the battle against homelessness, and thankful that our community is prepared to raise awareness about the issue.” The Salvation Army in Cranbrook provided over 990 extreme weather shelter night stays (beds) in Cranbrook last winter. To date, the community has raised more than $346,000 for the homeless shelter project, with an additional $260,000 commit-

ment from the Regional District of East Kootenay for soft costs to be allocated over a twoyear period. The Cranbrook and District Community Foundation is administering funds for the project and actively engaged in the fundraising efforts.

“Homelessness is a significant issue in our community and the construction of a shelter has been a top priority for the Salvation Army in Cranbrook over the last few years,” said Major Kirk Green, Salvation Army. “It is great to see the

business community stepping up in support of the cause in such a fun, high-profile and innovative way. I think it will be a fantastic event, and the Salvation Army is appreciative for what has been and continues to be an incredible amount of support

Salami Tactics and the Climate

alami tactics are useful when dealing with problems that are too big to resolve in one go. Muster all your resources and deal with one aspect of the problem. Come back later, when your resources have grown, and hack off a different piece. Repeat as necessary, until the problem disappears. Salami tactics are driving the make-orbreak climate summit that opens in Paris on 30 November. Over the next dozen days more than 150 countries will make binding pledges to cut their emissions of carbon dioxide and other “greenhouse gases”. This is better than what happened last time, at the disastrous Copenhagen summit in 2009, where only the developed countries were willing to make any promises at all. Even China, now the biggest emitter in the world, was refusing to accept any limits on its emissions on the grounds that the small group of countries that industrialised early (basically the West plus Japan) were historically responsible for 80 percent of the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. The Copenhagen summit broke up in disarray, with nothing of substance accomplished, and we had to wait six years for another kick at the can. Now both the United States and China, the two biggest hold-outs last time, are making concrete offers to control their emissions. That’s crucial, because together they account for 40 percent of global emissions. The conference must also come up with acceptable ways to monitor the emission cuts everybody is promising to make and to discipline the laggards and the cheats. But let’s be optimistic, and assume that the summit can even agree on a mechanism to transfer $100 billion annually from the rich

countries to the poor countries to help them cut their omissions. That still won’t save us from runaway warming and all the calamities that would entail. Late last month the United Nations did an analysis of the 146 national plans for emissions cuts (including those of all the big countries) that had already been submitted. Unfortunately, the numbers don’t add up. If all the promises are kept, global emissions will down — but the world Gwynne slow still ends up in the year 2100 with an average temDyer perature 2.7 degrees Celsius higher than it was in the late 19th century. Yet all the governments going to Paris have acknowledged that the average global temperature must never exceed two degrees C higher. What can they be thinking? Unlike the media and most of the lay public, the governments understand that plus 2 C is already catastrophic. If we stay there long enough, all the ice on the planet eventually melts and the sea level rises by 70 metres. Even in the much shorter term plus 2 C means massive storms, widespread desertification, the loss of the world’s coral reefs and a crash in fish stocks due to ocean acidification. Food production worldwide will plummet, and there will be massive, unstoppable refugee flows as hunger and wars devastate the more vulnerable countries. The governments also know that exceeding plus two or maybe even just getting near it will trigger the “feedbacks”: an ice-free Arctic Ocean absorbs the Sun’s heat rather than reflecting it, the melting of the permafrost zone releases of enormous amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, and the warming of the oceans releases even more.

At that point the warming moves beyond human ability to control. The feedbacks, once started, are unstoppable. Even if human beings ultimately get their own emissions down to zero, the feedbacks will still take us up to plus four, plus five, maybe even plus six degrees eventually. The governments know all this, and yet they have still come up with total promised cuts in emissions that deliver us to an average global temperature of plus 2.7 degrees C by the end of the century. What CAN they be thinking? They think that they are going as far as they can safely go without committing political suicide. Every government must contend with huge vested interests at home that will be hurt by the shift away from fossils fuels and towards renewables. If governments go too far too fast, they risk being destroyed by the backlash. Okay, so they are doing all they can politically — but what about the future of the human race? Well, you see, even inadequate cuts in emissions will increase the amount of time it takes for us to reach plus 2 C. And the governments secretly think that we can use that extra time to come back for another conference in three or five years’ time and agree to bigger emissions cuts. Those further cuts will give us still more time before we reach plus 2, and we use that time for another round of cuts. Like Xeno’s arrow, we get closer and closer to the target (which we must never hit) but never quite reach it. Warming certainly reaches plus 1.8 C or something like that, but it never quite hits plus two. Salami tactics. Although there is also a whiff of Russian roulette to this way of doing business.

Hobbs’ stellar showing not enough as Silvertips blank Ice Rookie goaltender Declan Hobbs did everything in his power, but it wasn’t enough as Everett shuts out Kootenay

Taylor Rocc a

When a goaltender backstops his club to a shutout victory, it usually goes without saying he was the better of the two guardians in the game. While Carter Hart made 16 stops to guide the Everett Silvertips to a 2-0 victory, rookie goaltender Declan Hobbs stole the show as he did everything in his power to give the Kootenay Ice an opportunity to halt a three-game losing streak Tuesday night against the Everett Silvertips. “Declan Hobbs gave us a chance,” said Luke Pierce, head coach of the Kootenay Ice, Tuesday night. “Our goalies have been so good. “That’s a good hockey club [Everett] and they had four power plays in the first period. “It’s not easy for a goalie to get in there and get peppered like that. But he understands what we’re trying to do as a team. He knows where he needs to look to be at. “If we had a whole bunch of guys up front and in our ‘D’ core who had his work ethic, I think we’d be in a different position at this point.” Hobbs, 17, turned aside 39 of the 41 shots directed his way, including all 18 in the first 20 minutes of play. “Honestly, for me, I’d rather have a lot of shots in the first period than having no shots,” Hobbs said Tuesday. “I get a better feel for the puck. It gives me a better feel for the rest of the game. I didn’t mind it at all. Once I made the first few saves in the first period, I sort of got in my own groove and did what I could.” Hobbs was in a groove, without a doubt. By the time the final buzzer sounded, the only thing the Saskatoon product didn’t do was

score a goal -- something he most definitely cannot be blamed for. Skating in their first of four Central Division road games, the Silvertips came out firing in the first period, helped largely in part by four man advantages as Cale Fleury, Roman Dymacek and Tanner Lishchynsky -- on two separate occasions -- found their way to the sin bin. While Hobbs was the busiest and arguably the best goaltender throughout, Hart’s shutout was certainly earned as the two netminders went save for save for much of the night. Named WHL Goaltender of the Week Monday, Hart showed why late in the first. Hit with a long lead pass from Fleury, Dymacek broke down the left side before flashing a quick-release shot for the home team’s first good scoring chance of the night. Calmly, Hart was there to negate the opportunity and the two teams headed into the dressing room scoreless. Early in the middle period, Ice forward Shane Allan broke in 2-on-1 with Jared Legien for another great Kootenay scoring opportunity. Legien, 17, got off a quick one-timer that Hart managed to get cross-crease on to preserve the scoreless affair. With time winding down in the second period, it looked as though both squads might be headed to the final 20 minutes of regulation with goose eggs on both sides of the scoreboard until Matt Alfaro drew a questionable high-sticking penalty with 5:10 to go. Short-handed for the fifth time, Hobbs made a calm blocker stop on Silvertips forward Graham Millar halfway through the Everett

power play. Moments later, Austrian import Dario Winkler snapped a quick shot from on top of the circle. After ricocheting off Hobbs, the post and back off the Ice goaltender, the biscuit found a way into the basket, trickling across the goal line for a 1-0 Silvertips lead after 40 minutes. Like on so many other occasions this season, the Kootenay Ice found themselves heading into the third period down but not out -- completely within reach of a win. But like on so many others before it, victory was not in the cards for the Ice Tuesday night. The stingy Silvertips shut things down in the defensive zone during the third period, outshooting the host Ice 10-4 over the final 20 minutes of play. Lishchynsky made his third trip to the penalty box with seven minutes remaining in the third and Silvertips captain Dawson Leedahl capitalized to put the visitors ahead 2-0. When the final buzzer sounded, the Silvertips win boiled down to two things: a 2-for-6 conversion rate on the man advantage and an impenetrable wall named Hart, that at the end of the night, the Ice simply did not test enough. Not to be overlooked Tuesday was the reality Pierce faced in deploying his lineup. Starting from the blue-line out, the rookie bench boss was without Troy Murray (serving the first of a two-game suspension), Tyler King (who is back in Cranbrook and set to prepare rehab after undergoing off-season knee surgery, according to president and general manager Jeff Chynoweth) and Jason Wenzel.

Goaltender Declan Hobbs makes one of his 39 stops with forward Matt Fonteyne (#17) coming in hot Tuesday at Western Financial Place. Despite Hobbs’ stellar efforts, the Silvertips shutout the Ice 2-0. Up front, right wing Jaedon Descheneau was ruled out for the next four to six months after it was announced he will be undergoing shoulder surgery at the end of November. Veteran winger Zak Zborosky (lower body) was unavailable, as was captain Luke Philp (upper body). With all that on the table heading into Tuesday’s tilt, the puck dropped with Pierce working a bench already short two skaters. And it only got worse from there. Midway through the second period, sophomore winger River Beattie was knocked out of action with what Pierce deemed a head injury. Beattie, 18, will likely be subject to league concussion protocol and Pierce does not expect him to be available for the weekend. In short, the beleaguered Ice shot caller was challenged in only having nine forwards at his disposal for most of

Calgary Flames edge New Jersey Devils Associated Press

CALGARY - David Jones scored his team-leading seventh goal of the season and added an assist to lead the Flames to a win over

the Devils on Tuesday night. Jones one-timed a pass from linemate Joe Colborne past New Jersey goalie Cory Schneider at 6:09 of the second period for his 100th ca-

reer NHL goal. TJ Brodie and Matt Stajan also scored for the Flames, who beat the Devils for the sixth straight time dating back to Jan. 10, 2012. Making his ninth

straight start for Calgary, Karri Ramo stopped 18 shots. Bobby Farnham and Jordin Tootoo scored for the Devils, while Schneider finished with 27 saves.

Tuesday’s loss. “It’s hard. It’s really hard,” Pierce said of the depleted lineup. “You play nine forwards for the majority of the hockey game and it’s not easy. You have to take it into consideration when you’re being critical, but we still gave ourselves chances that we passed up. Or we missed them. “That’s preparation and that’s practice.” While the Ice may not have made life easy on themselves at times this season, there certainly have been no breaks afforded for the club in the injury department and only 22 of 72 games have been scratched off the slate. As is life in the Western Hockey League, you

put a loss in the past and move on to preparing for the next game. For Pierce, he remains encouraged by the play of his goaltenders, which Tuesday night came shining through in the form of Hobbs. “You have to rally around [knowing] every night your goalie is going to give you a chance,” Pierce said. “There are teams out there that would be desperate for that. We’ve got that luxury. That’s a huge one.” Hobbs made his seventh appearance of the season Tuesday. The last start for the rookie came back on Nov. 7 -- a 3-2 loss to the Lethbridge Hurricanes. “I try to get all my reps in practice -- as a backup goalie you have to do

that,” Hobbs said of keeping fresh when faced with long stretches between starts. “Hof [Wyatt Hoflin] has been really good. He’s really supportive of me. He’s a good guy to back up.” The Ice will look to get back in the win column Friday night when they welcome former defenceman Tanner Faith and the Moose Jaw Warriors to Western Financial Place.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My in-laws have always caused problems, but things have escalated since my husband and I had children. They live 30 minutes away, but they refuse to visit. When our second child was born, they didn’t come to my baby shower or to the hospital. When they finally visited, they didn’t even look at the baby. They won’t FaceTime to see the grandkids. We told them we’d come to their home when the kids aren’t napping, but they said if we couldn’t spend the entire day, they aren’t interested in seeing us at all. When we try to schedule a visit, they usually say they are “too busy.” Yet when we do manage to see them, all they do is sit on the sofa and watch TV. They don’t interact with the children. My in-laws take several luxury vacations every year, some lasting for three weeks. Somehow, they aren’t too busy for that. Meanwhile, they send us random texts berating us about not visiting more and that we don’t do enough for them. Worse, when they see the kids, they insult them and make fun of their slow physical development and speech impediments. But they are little kids and progress takes time. I am angry and hurt. I dread the upcoming holidays. My husband feels as I do, but these are his parents. The stress has caused a lot of problems in our otherwise happy marriage. I am not yet 30 and cannot imagine spending the rest of my life like this. What can I do? -- Feeling Blue Dear Blue: No one should be permitted to make fun of your children’s developmental issues. Period. Your in-laws sound both toxic and selfish. Couples with young children are allowed to set their schedules. We suggest you be unfailingly polite while you explain that, no, you cannot come visit now because the kids are napping (or in school or have other activities). When you can do a whole-day visit, offer to do so. But if the inlaws insult your kids, leave immediately. If they don’t like it, too bad. And make sure your husband backs you up on this. Dear Annie: My boyfriend and I are discussing marriage. We have both been married previously. We already live together and have everything we need. We would like to have a picnic or something and just surprise everyone with a wedding, so that no one feels obligated to bring gifts. Normally, when we have picnics with friends and family, we provide the main courses and everything else is potluck. Would that be acceptable in this situation? -- Wondering in Pennsylvania Dear Wondering: The idea of surprising your friends with an impromptu picnic wedding is a lovely idea. Just be sure that the people most important to you will make the date a priority and show up, and others won’t be offended because a picnic seemed to be no big deal and they spent the day elsewhere. But unless it is the custom among your friends to supply the wedding feast, we don’t think it is appropriate to ask your guests to bring the food. If people offer, you can say it’s not necessary. If they choose to bring something anyway, so be it. They will consider it a wedding gift. Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.
