Report looks at City finances C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor
In a week in which Kimberley City Council received a variety of reports — on the flume, the SunMine and facilities — what ties them all together is a report from City CAO Scott Sommerville. Sommerville has prepared a 15year Financial Trend Analysis to assist in the preparation of future financial plans. “Scott’s report provides the framework for years of budgets,” said Mayor Don McCormick. “It’s a very important report.” The report looks at assessments, taxation, utility user fees and expenditures, salaries, wages, and benefits, expenditures and infrastructure. Among the interesting facts in
the report: In the period since the Sullivan Mine closed in 2001 to 2015, Residential assessments have increased 173%, from $321,387,007 to $877,755,503. Business assessments have increased 43%, from $34,744,751 to $49,726,158. Overall taxation in 2001 was $6,508,554. Taxes collected dropped dramatically (-32.4%) the following year (2002), as the assessed value and classification of Teck properties were reduced. Since 2002, total taxation has risen from $4,914,349 (2002) to $10,095,323 (2015), an increase of 105.4%. Residential Taxes have increased year-over-year from as low as 1.5% (2001) to as high as 10.7% (2011). Business Taxes have increased year-over-year from as low as 0% (2005) to as
high as 5.3% (2010). Salaries, wages and benefits have made up between 48.9% (2008) to 53.0% (2013) of total expenses over the last 15 years. The annual increase to individual salaries, wages, and benefits has varied year over year from between 0% (2002) to 2.5% (2006, 2013, 2014, & 2015). By 2019, salaries and wages are estimated to make up 54.4% of expenditures. The annual change to overall salaries, wages, and benefits year over year has varied from between -8.0% (2002) to +12.6% (2007). Overall expenses related to salaries, wages and benefits decreased in 3 of the last 15 years. Overall expenses related to salaries, wages and benefits increased in 12 of the last 15 years See REPORT, page 3
Learning on the job Stetski reacts to throne speech, MMIW inquiry TRE VOR CR AWLEY
With the House of Commons in session yet, a glimpse of the legislative agenda was offered through the Liberal government’s throne speech, delivered by Governor General David Johnston last week. Kootenay Columbia MP Wayne Stetski said the speech was a reflection of Liberal promises made during
Kootenay Columbia MP Wayne Stetski the election. With that in mind, the NDP attempted to add a few amendments to what were staple election planks for the party during the election, including
an increase to the Guaranteed Income Supplement for seniors, tax relief for the middle class, a $15 per hour minimum wage for federal jobs and changes to the employment insurance program. However, those proposed amendments were defeated by the Liberals and Conservatives, Stetski said. “I’m not sure why they don’t want to do the right thing for Canadians who need it most in that sense,” Stetski said.

Local birders to take part in 116th annual Christmas Bird Count Da ryl C a lder
The annual Christmas Bird Count (CBC) — the longest-running Citizen Science survey in the world — will take place from December 14, 2015, to January 5, 2016. Cranbrook, Kimberley and Fernie naturalists will join tens of
thousands of volunteers throughout the Americas to take part in an adventure that has become a family tradition among generations. Families and students, birders and scientists, armed with binoculars, bird guides and checklists go out on an annual mission — often
before dawn to count the birds. For over one hundred years, the desire to both make a difference and to experience the beauty of nature has driven dedicated people to leave the comfort of a warm house during the Holiday season. Each of the citizen
scientists who annually brave snow, wind, or rain, to take part in the Christmas Bird Count makes an enormous contribution to conservation. Audubon and other organizations use data collected in this longest-running wildlife census to assess the health of bird popula-
tions — and to help guide conservation action. From feeder-watchers and field observers to count compilers and regional editors, everyone who takes part in the Christmas Bird Count does it for love of birds and the excitement of friendly com-
petition — and with the knowledge that their efforts are making a difference for science and bird conservation. You are invited to join these local counts. For more information about CBC participation or helping by watching your feeders in the East Kootenays please contact:

B.C. signs pledge to join global race towards zero-emission vehicles C anadian Press
VICTORIA - British Columbia has joined a global team aiming to fill highways and city streets with zero-emission vehicles over the next 35 years. Environment Minister Mary Polak signed an agreement in Paris at United Nations climate talks, making B.C. the 14th member of the International Zero-Emission Vehicle Alliance. B.C.’s Energy Minister Bill Bennett says less than 2,000 electric vehicles are currently on the
CLASSIFIEDS HELP YOU SELL CALL: 426-5201 EXT. 202
roads in the province, but he expects that number to increase as more charging stations are installed in cities and along highways. He says B.C. already has the largest public-charging network in Canada for electric vehicles, but more can be done. B.C. joins Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, the United Kingdom, along with California and seven other states in pledging to ensure all new vehicles are zero-emissions models by 2050, a move that could cut global vehicle emission rates by 40 per cent. Quebec also signed the pledge.

New Year’s Eve with the Nordic Club
For the Bulle tin
As the Christmas season approaches, the Kimberley Nordic Club and the KiXS racing team are busy preparing for their annual New Year’s Eve Torchlight Ski. This event has grown in popularity over the last seven years, so that it has become a “must do” on the list of many local residents and visitors to Kimberley. Last year it was estimated that 500 people visited the trails over the course of the evening. It has become a popular attraction for many good reasons: It is a fantastic place for family and friends to gather at the years’ end and ski the beautiful trails of the Kimberley Nordic Centre with 3 kms lit with torches and candles. It provides a great view of the fireworks
display that takes place at the Kimberley Alpine Resort. Skiers are greeted at the hut by the racing team, with hot drinks, appetizers and sweet treats, and are able to warm up and enjoy the amenities of the Kimberley Nordic Lodge. This year, the Torchlight Ski is being sponsored by six local businesses. Corporate sponsors include Kimberley Tourism, Kimberley Lodging Company, Kootenay Savings and Credit Union, Gerick’s Cycle, Rockies Law Group and the Sullivan Pub and Grill. The KiXS Racers wish to thank these sponsors for their support, which keeps the event affordable for our community and allows entrance by voluntary donations. The Torchlight Ski takes place between
7:00 - 10:00 pm on Thursday, December 31 at the Kimberley Nordic Centre. All ages are welcome and encouraged to participate. Admission is by donation, with proceeds supporting the Kimberley Nordic Racers. The KiXS racers are a group of teenaged skiers who train yearround, and compete in regional, provincial, national and international races. If you have never experienced the New Year’s Eve Torchlight Ski, be sure to take in this memorable community event this year, and if you have come before, we look forward to seeing you again!

Kimberley’s North Star Skaters at the West Kootenay Invitational For the Bulletin
The North Star Skating club had a strong showing at the WKI in Castlegar, December 4-6, 2015. They had 11 tests at the high test day, on Dec. 4 at which one skat-
er, completed her last gold dancegreat job Bianca! Our girls did well during the competition, with Emily Newel, Zoe Marina and Bianca Marina taking home a gold medal, Bianca - two silver med-
als, Kana Dolgopol –a silver and Charlize DuPreez – a bronze. They are looking forward to competing in Invermere, at the East Kootenay Invitational, on January 15, 2016.
Report looks at City finances From page 1 Salaries, wages, and benefits have risen 78.7% over the last 15 years, from $3,841,734 (2001) to $6,866,968 (2015). Sommerville recommends that the City follow the lead of Calgary and Edmonton and develop a municipal price index. This is a “measure of the inflation rate a municipality faces with annual increases to goods consumed by the city”. The MPI is calculated by staff, and is based on expenditures on salaries, wages, and benefits, contract services, energy costs, and materials such as asphalt, according to the report.
In his summary, Sommerville warns that although the city has kept up a high level of service over the past 15 years, in order for council to achieve their strategic priorities of financial sustainability and infrastructure renewal for the City, some dramatic changes will need to be made. He says that further increases to residential tax rates are approaching a point of being beyond the ability of residents to pay, and is becoming a deterrent to new residents moving to Kimberley. Although progress has been made on the water and sewer infrastructure deficit, the infrastructure deficit on general
assets (eg. roads, facilities, fleet) continues to deepen. Actions taken to address this can include: • generate new revenue - review user fees • reduce operational costs • reduce the level of services in some areas • reduce the inventory of capital assets through sale • invest the proceeds of the sale of assets in core infrastructure - prioritize the replacement of capital assets with high maintenance costs. Council will further discuss the report at their regular meeting on Monday.

Kimberley Rock Academy at the Elks
Open mic and performance from 145 For the Bulletin
On Wednesday December 23rd, there will be a full evening of cultural activity at the Elks Hall. The “Kimberley Rock Academy” is presenting a youth open mic and then a dance featuring the band “One for Five”, who are also graduates of the Academy. There are six 15 minute slots during the open mic portion of the show, which will be reserved for youth talent in Kimberley, whether part of the academy or not. “It is our aim to provide a further venue for the best budding talent in town”, says Jordan Symes, founding member and bassist with 145. The open mic will start at 6:30 p.m. and continue until 8 p.m. at which time the featured act (One for Five) will take the stage and the dance portion of the evening will commence. “Tickets are open to all ages, but we’d like to es-
pecially invite the youth crowd out as often they’re looking for something fun to do, and around this time a lot of graduates arrive from out of town as well, so were hoping this will be a home coming event”, says Kaila Buchy, guitarist and vocalist. Although the event itself is ‘all ages’, those who wish to partake in some Christmas cheer can slip upstairs in the Elks Hall. “One of the advantages of the Elks, is there’s a designated drinking area, which provides maximum flexibility for these all age events”, says Garett Symes, keys, guitars and vocals, “and it allows us under agers to mix with the over aged crowd, which is so often not the case.” “We’re here for the music, and the fun”, says Declan Armstrong, drummer, vocalist and youngest member of 145. The members of ‘One for Five’ plan to unveil several original tunes at this event and will record very soon. They have been writing themselves and have

Organization of a committee to work with the Immigration Department in the bringing to Kimberley and District of a number of Hungarian refugees, was accomplished Wednesday night by a representative group under the chairmanship of Mayor Swan. Represented were the Ministerial Association, I.O.D.E., Y-Teens, C.W.L., Soroptimists, Jr. Red Cross, P.T.A., Lions Club, congregations of United and Presbyterian Churches, the Dutch group, and several citizens, one of whom, a Hungarian, offered to serve as an interpreter. Mayor Swan stated that what is needed at this time is a list of those who will give one or more, or even a family, a temporary home until such time as they can become established themselves. Financial help will be available to these sponsors if necessary, but it is hoped that the drain on the government will not be heavier than necessary. Considerable local sharing of food and clothing costs is also anticipated. It was pointed out that the I.O.D.E. sponsored night school classes in English for New Canadians, already established and proven, would be most valuable to these newcomers. The following committee was set up: Chairman Rev. McKinley, Secretary-Treasurer Ron Griswald. T.M. Anderson, J. Leith, Mrs. Rollheiser, Miss White, Mrs. A. Oliver, Mr. Gerkovits, H. Niezen, a representative of the I.O.D.E., Rev. Raine of Marysville Laura Keer Church, Rev. F. McPhee and Father Guinan.

MP Stetski reacts to throne speech From page 1 “We’re disappointed, but we’re still trying to be optimistic overall, but we’ll certainly be watching closely to make sure the promises in the end has some focus to them and actually delivers something important.” On the issue of tax relief, Stetski clarified that the Liberal plan would give a tax break to those making between $42,000 $200,000, whereas the NDP wants that tax break to be eligible for those with an income below $42,000 as well. “Our concern is that the tax break that was part of the Liberal government bill starts at $42,000 of income and basically goes up to about $200,000 of income, so the people that will actually get the highest tax break are the people making $90,000 and over, which is not middle-class for many of our communities across Canada,” Stetski said.
“So our amendment proposal was to bring the tax break to include anybody making up to $42,000 dollars and to provide them with some tax relief.” The main motion to support the throne speech hasn’t come forward yet, so Setski says the NDP caucus must have an internal debate to see if the party will support it or not. On the topic of election promises, the government announced on Tuesday the first of two phases for an national inquiry into missing and murdered indigenous women. The first phase will consist of consultation with families who have experienced the tragedy of missing or murdered indigenous women to sees what the design of the inquiry should be and what it hopes to achieve. The second phase, which will begin in the spring of next year,
will be the bulk of the inquiry itself, after the first phase decides the activities, participants and identifies the commissioners. Stetski is pleased to see the inquiry move forward, as it was part of the NDP election platform as well. “We campaigned on that promise, so we’re pleased to see the Liberal government is undertaking the inquiry. Our expectations for the inquiry—I think Canadians’ expectations for the inquiry—should be very high in terms of implementing the findings,” Stetski said. “We are concerned, as are Canadians generally, when government undertakes a study or a report that not that much happens with the outcome, so we’re pleased that the inquiry is going to happen, but we are very much waiting to see what the report says and how the government is going to implement it.”
Cranbrook looks at energy savings for aquatic centre $361,000 for dehumidification system Tre vor Cr awley
Cranbrook is forging ahead with a plan to pursue a grant to go towards an aquatic dehumidification system for the Cranbrook Aquatic Centre. The system, originally budgeted for 2019 fiscal year, is being moved ahead to next year, as city staff will apply for a Community Energy Leadership Program (CELP) grant in the order of $119,130. The city is also eligible for a grant of the same amount from FortisBC, with the remainder $122,740 coming from the Municipal Infrastructure (Gas Tax) Reserve.
All told, the project will cost $361,000. The dehumidification system is estimated to save $16,000 annually in energy costs for the Cranbrook Aquatic Centre, while also reducing CO2 emissions by 279 tonnes per year . The project is in response to a recent energy study of Western Financial Place, which identified pool heat recovery as a high priority. The project is being pushed forward in part because that study makes it eligible for the FortisBC grants. However, there is an 18-month window in which the city must apply for and utilize that funding, which would expire by 2019. In the 2015-2019 Five Year Financial
Plan, both Western Financial Place and the Aquatic Centre were identified for dehumidification systems at a cost of $735,000 for both facilities. However, with the potential to land the CELP grant—city staff believes they can put to gether a strong application—the project has been moved up to 2016. Though the Cranbrook Aquatic Centre will get the dehumidification system should the funding come through, the arena’s system is still in the 2019 budget and is not eligible for the CELP grant. Council must submit an application by Dec. 15, 2015 deadline, with councillor Tom Shypitka serving as the liaison.

Natasha and Izzy produce holiday art at the Christmas Craft Corner at Kimberley City Bakery last Saturday. The Kimberley City Bakery has set up a free craft corner Saturday afternoons from 1-3 until Christmas in their back room, where parents can bring their children and let them make or decorate a decoration for their Christmas tree.
The Way it Was From page 4 A survey of available jobs will be made immediately by T.M. Anderson, H. Niezen and the I.O.D.E. representative. Forms for sponsoring parties to fill in may be obtained at City Hall and from ministers of all churches. They should be filled in and returned to City Hall immediately as no refugees can be sent here until homes are forthcoming. An immediate appeal for cash donations will be made with collection boxes placed in the two banks. Donations may also be given to the minister of any church. This money is to establish a fund for local help so that newcomers may, if necessary, be met at Cranbrook, or supplied with shoes or other emergent needs, and for administration. An appeal for food and clothing will be made later when the needs are known.
Local 651 To Buy Frosted Foods Bldg.
For the purpose of familiarizing the
membership of the Union with four alternatives regarding the acquiring of a new Union Hall, a meeting was held in the K. of P. Hall Sunday. The choices the members have are: to buy the Elks building, to buy the Legion building and build a top floor, to build on their own corner lot, and to buy the Frosted Foods building. After an enlightening discussion, everyone present at this special membership meeting approved recommendation of the building committee to purchase the Frosted Food Co. Ltd., property. Cost will be $25,000 with $6500 being needed for renovation. It is especially important that members understand that this will not mean an increase in Union fees, since the building fund contains more than enough to complete these transactions. Another item which must be understood is that the Union would not be taking over until next summer, thus enabling locker holders ample time to make other arrangements.

H
ere’s a new word for this week, and also for the foreseeable future: xenophilia. It comes from two Greek words — xenos, meaning “stranger”; and philia, meaning “brothery love” or “familial affection.” Xenophilia thus means to show love for the stranger. It is at the heart of hospitality. The opposite is xenophobia, meaning “fear of strangers.” We’ve seen striking instances of xenophobia in the idiotic comments of America’s Clown-inChief Donald Trump in his comments that the US should ban all Muslims, and also in his desire to build a huge wall on the border with Mexico. This kind of ugly sentiment is based in fear and leads to atrocities of all kinds — ethnic cleansing and holocausts are all based in this kind of fear.
Luc Olivier Merson’s “Rest on the Flight into Egypt” (1897). For followers of Jesus, xenophilia is not an option. Hebrews 13: 2 reads “Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.” As followers of Jesus, we are to be an open–hearted and open–handed people, showing hospitality and grace and compassion to all. It reminds me of one of my favourite Advent/ Christmas paintings, Luc Olivier Merson’s “Rest on the Flight into Egypt” (1897). This painting speaks to me on a bunch of different levels. It’s a haunting scene, full of fatigue. The holy family
is displaced; they are refugees fleeing the violence of Herod and the Roman Empire, like so many people in the world today. As we are drawn into the scene, we remember that in welcoming refugees, we welcome the Christ. Joseph is exhausted, asleep on the desert floor beside a dying campfire. One can imagine the mental and physical strain he is under trying to get his family to safety, hoping for welcome and protection in a foreign land. The donkey looks for something to eat, anything at all. But will these refugees fleeing violence find that welcome and
protection when they arrive at the borders of that foreign land? Or will they face hostility, paranoia and rejection? Will the Christ child be turned away by immigration control? Mary and the baby are asleep in the arms of the Sphinx, whose eyes are turned upwards, towards the heavens where the first stars are beginning to appear. The baby is the only source of light in the painting. “Rest on the Flight into Egypt” depicts, from the very beginning of his life, the homelessness of the Messiah. God is a refugee, an immigrant, a stranger in a strange land, a person of
exile displaced by violence. “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head” (Matthew 8:20). This Christmas season is a time for us to remember that we are bound by the imperative to welcome the stranger and care for the vulnerable. May your heart, like the Grinch’s, grow three sizes and may you grow ever more xenophilic this season and throughout your life.

It Smells like Money: 90 Percent Odor-Free JANUS:
Then & Now
Jim Cameron
“L
ike it or not, pulp mills smell and that’s an economic fact of life,” stated the Cranbrook Courier on March 9, 1966, under the headline, “Pulp Mill to be 90 Percent Odor-Free.” “All effluent materials toxic to fish will be rendered harmless before water goes back into the Kootenay River … air and water pollution has always been a very real problem associated with these multi-million dollar babies.” Was it an indictment against the presence of a proposed pulp mill at Skookumchuk? Hardly. It was a statement of the facts with which the population would have to learn to live if they wanted one of those pulp mill “babies” to grow up in their neighbourhood. It wasn’t the first promise of a pulp mill in the area. In June, 1922, the local papers were rife with the claims that a mill or two were coming to the region. The ten million dollar “Wigwam Pulp and Paper Company, Ltd.,” funded by the Chicago Daily Tribune, would establish a mill town near Elko, complete with a dam across the Elk River, or perhaps an English syndicate would construct a ten million dollar plant at Canal Flats. Didn’t happen, of course, and when the 300 or so unemployed labourers who turned up in town looking for jobs finally wandered off, all was pretty much forgotten. It wasn’t until 1965 that the subject came up again, in the form of a public hearing of Canal Development’s request for a Pulpwood Harvesting Area, the first step in the creation of a multi-million East Koo-

An architectural rendering of the proposed pulp mill – Courier June 21, 1967. tenay pulp mill near Canal Flats. The company was a subsidiary of local lumber company Crestbrook Timber Ltd., and included the Honshu Paper Company and Mitsubishi (International) Corporation of Japan. Curiously, at exactly the same time, Kicking Horse Forest Products proposed a mill near Golden and the Crows Nest Coal Co. proposed the same near Fernie. B.C. Lands and Forests Minister Ray Williston chose to settle the matter by declaring a public auction for the 35 million cubic feet of timber made available for the purpose. Minister Williston set the auction date for August 2, 1965, and excitement grew in the various communities. It was all for naught as Williston called a halt to the auction part way through, “in the public interest,” declaring that the bidding “had passed the limits of economic reality.” It appeared things were at an impasse when Canal Development declared it would proceed immediately with construction of a 70 million dollar mill without obtaining a pulp permit. Williston stated “the only reason for a Pulp Harvest Area is to secure the use of the pulp and thus enable the company to finance. If they are able to finance without a license then it has no particular significance … if they are ready to go then they can go.” And go, they did, not

It seemed that the Columbia Treaty would not allow drainage from the Columbia Lake into the Kootenay River. “History is Made as East Kootenay Pulp Mill is Confirmed,” declared the March 2, 1966, Courier. Initial construction called for two stages over three years to create a mill producing 700-tons-per-day of pulp. It would utilize waste material from local mills and timber of the Crestbrook forests, more than seven million acres of which Crestbrook acquired from Minister Williston in August, 1966, with, surprisingly or otherwise, no auction necessary. Approximately 400 workers were hired to build the mill, with a projected crew of 250 to operate it and 400-500 to harvest the timber. It was to be “90 percent odor-free” but, according to the word on the street, that other ten percent “sure smelled like money”. The remaining ques-
tion was whether the Japanese government would okay their country’s participation to the tune of more than 32 million dollars to acquire 48.2 percent of the shares. When the Japanese approval came through in January, 1967, Vic Brown, president of Crestbrook Timber was so elated that he predicted a future community of 6,000 people at Skookumchuk. By March, 1967, Fabro Building and Supply Co. of Cranbrook was setting up an on-site construction camp and the Regional District of East Kootenay issued a four million dollar building permit to H.A. Simmons, engineering consultants from Vancouver, the largest permit ever issued in the East Kootenay. June 24, saw a ceremony to mark the official start of construction attended by numerous dignitaries including B.C. Premier W.A.C. Bennett, who poured the concrete for the corner of the administration building and who also opened the Fort Steele Bridge and the
Fort Steele Living History Park the same day. During the pulp mill ceremony Fussso Yamaguchi, managing director of Mitsubishi Shoji Kaisha Ltd., stated that the Skookumchuk pulp mill will prove “there is no national boundary or any other impediment when people trust, understand and co-operate with one another.” Premier Bennett declared that “Japan was closer to B.C. than Ottawa. There are great mountains between Ottawa and B.C. and nothing but a friendly Pacific lake between Japan and B.C.” The president of Honshu Paper Manufacturing Co., Ltd., expressed the view that the mill would be “the start of a part of history which will extend 100 years into the future.” The first carloads of unbleached pulp rolled out in the final week of November, 1968. The mill was acquired by Tembec Inc., in 1999 and purchased by Paper Excellence Canada Holding Corp. in 2013, for 89 million dollars. As for the smell of money, well, in this case it was not always pleasant. Despite being “90 percent odor-free” the remaining ten percent could be downright brutal when the weather was right. It remained that way for many years but has improved in recent times. It is still noticeable upon occasion, a reminder that some money has a distinct odor.

Putting a season-long five-game road trip behind them, the Kootenay Ice return home to host an annual fan favourite event when the Swift Current Broncos visit Western Financial Place Saturday night. Benefitting the Salvation Army, the annual A&W Teddy Bear, Toque and Mitten Toss will take place Saturday evening when the Kootenay Ice (6-24-2-0) score their first goal against the Broncos (8-17-3-1). Perhaps more so than in years past, the special holiday game comes in an effort to help provide a bit of hope to those who might be a bit down on their luck. “It’s about the community in general, trying to be good citizens and do something positive for people this time of year,” said Luke Pierce, head coach of the Kootenay Ice, Thursday afternoon prior to practice at Western Financial Place. “It’s an exciting thing to be a part of and help make a difference. Hopefully we can use that to generate our own enthusiasm. “We could use some great fan support to get out of a bit of a tough time. You think about family situations -when people are down, you always have good support networks to pick them back up and show them you care. “Everyone has been really encouraging. Our players need that. They’re no different than anybody else. Sometimes they need a boost when they’re down and hopefully the Teddy Bear Toss game can help generate that.” It’s no secret the Kootenay Ice are down. Sitting in last place in the Western Hockey League, Cranbrook’s junior hockey heroes are mired in the midst of an eight-game losing streak and looking for a pickme-up following a fivegame road trip through the B.C. Division. A bright spot coming out of the season-long trek came for rookie forward Noah Philp, who smashed a goose egg on
his stat sheet, collecting his first-career WHL goal Tuesday evening in Prince George. A native of Canmore, Alta., and younger brother of Ice captain Luke Philp, Noah is hoping Tuesday’s success is something he can build upon. “It felt good. The pressure was building a little without having that one, but it was nice to finally get it out of the way,” Noah said Thursday afternoon prior to practice at Western Financial Place. For the 17-year-old former Canmore Eagle, the transition to the WHL hasn’t been an easy one, but with one goal and five points in 31 games, the 6-foot-1 centre has eclipsed the totals he produced last season in the Alberta Junior Hockey League (one goal, three points in 31 games). “It’s been a huge learning curve for him,” Pierce said of Noah. “Early on, he wanted to play bigger minutes in a bigger role and I understand that. Every player does. With the injuries he kind of got thrust into it and had some challenges, which I think you can expect. “With Noah, it’s trying to find a consistent style and performance every day. It doesn’t matter if you’re playing with our top line, which he’s done on occasion, or centring our third or fourth line. We need Noah to be the same every day. “[Tuesday in Prince George] was a real good effort from him at the end of a long road trip, which was a very good sign. I think he wants to get better and he shows that even away from the rink.” Having an older brother around the rink to help guide him has been both a blessing and a curse of sorts for Noah. His older brother Luke came into the season as arguably one of the most dynamic 20-year-old forwards in the Western Hockey League until he was sidelined by an ankle injury. Having tallied 95 goals and 235 points in
247 career WHL games all with the Ice, Luke is well established as one of the more recent greats to suit up for the Kootenay Ice. It’s safe to say that shadow has cast down upon Noah, who admittedly feels the pressure of living up to the name his older brother has made in Cranbrook. “It gets in my head a little sometimes,” Noah said. “But I’ve just got to try and worry about me. I can’t always think, ‘Oh, I’ve got to live up to his expectations.’ I just try to do the best I can. “He’s been really helpful. He’s been a great leader to the team and to me. He’s had lots of success here. I’ve been trying to follow what he’s been doing and learning from him has been pretty helpful.” The Kootenay Ice sit 22nd in the 22-team WHL in terms of offensive production. With only 60 goals-for through 32 games, the Ice are averaging 1.88 goals per outing. The only other team in the league to have scored fewer than 70 goals to this point in the campaign is the Swift Current Broncos, with 66 goals through 29 games (2.28 goals per game). With captain Philp, the team’s most dangerous offensive weapon, rendered unavailable due to an ankle injury, the Ice could certainly use his younger brother Noah to bottle his recent offensive spark moving forward. “We’ve been struggling in the goal department, especially,” Noah said. “And I don’t think I’ve been producing as much as I should. But that’s kind of my focus a little now. I’d like to be able to help the team offensively as much as I can.” The last time the Kootenay Ice won a game came Nov. 21 against these same Broncos -- a 2-1 triumph at Western Financial Place.

Zaharichuk settling in with Ice One of the newest members of the Ice is finding his way as he hopes to grow into a bigger role Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor
When Jesse Zaharichuk joined the Kootenay Ice, it wasn’t under the most ideal circumstance. Traded east from the WHL’s Kamloops Blazers on Sunday, Nov. 29, the 18-year-old native of Sherwood Park, Alta., didn’t have to go far to join his new team as the Ice were slated to face the Blazers Tuesday, Dec. 1 in Kamloops. “It was definitely a challenge playing against some of my best friends that I got real close with over the past year, year and a half,” Zaharichuk said Thursday afternoon prior to practice at Western Financial Place. “The emotions were definitely running high. It was definitely something I’ll cherish, but this is a different opportunity for myself.” Zaharichuk was dangerous that emotional night in Kamloops. Though the speedy winger created a number of quality scoring opportunities -- including ringing one off the iron behind Blazers netminder Connor Ingram -- he was unable to find twine as his former club cruised to a 5-1 victory. Now with five games under his belt as a member of the Kootenay Ice, Zaharichuk is settling in and the hope is he will grow into a bigger role with his new squad moving forward. Having posted four goals and 13 points in 22 games split between the Blazers and Ice so far this season, Zaharichuk wants to fill an offensive role within the team’s top-six forwards and certainly has the potential to do just that. “We’re hopeful that Jesse can start to really commit himself to being a core part of our group,” said Luke Pierce, head coach of the Kootenay Ice, Thursday afternoon. “That’s up to him. He’s been a little more of a periphery guy in the past with his teams because they’ve had real strong cores. He’s got to be a guy for us that is going to help lead us every day and really take
“It was definitely a challenge playing against some of my best friends...The emotions were definitely running high...But this is a different opportunity for myself.” Jesse Zaharichuk Kootenay Ice on that responsibility of being a top-end player. “That’s something that might be a bit of a change for him, but we’re hoping he can commit to [that] and we can push him to be better.” A veteran of 70 WHL games and having registered seven goals and 28 points over that span, Zaharichuk stands as one of the more experienced skaters on a rookie-laden Ice squad. Having settled in with his new Cranbrook billet family Wednesday, Zaharichuk is looking forward to a fresh beginning with the Ice as they host the Swift Current Broncos Saturday night. The former Blazer has yet to register his first point as a member of the Kootenay Ice and fans in Cranbrook have yet to see one of the newest additions take to the ice. With a struggling Broncos squad, winless in 11 games, visiting town Saturday, Zaharichuk’s hope is for a strong debut at Western Financial Place. “I’d like to be a topsix guy,” Zaharichuk said. “More of an offensive player and play to my strengths creating offense, being reliable in all zones of the ice. “We need everybody playing and we need to play a full 60 minutes. We’ve put together some good periods, but other periods are kind of lacking. If we put together a full 60 [minutes] we’ll have a good chance.” Zaharichuk and the Kootenay Ice host the Swift Current Broncos Saturday night (7 p.m.) at Western Financial Place.

Nitros defenceman Meier joins Buckley, Brouwer with Jamestown commitment Taylor Rocc a
If the Kimberley Dynamiters send any more players to the University of Jamestown’s fledgling Jimmies hockey program, they’re going to need a bus to carry them all. Last week, Nitros defenceman Justin Meier became the third Nitro to commit to the upstart American Collegiate Hockey Association (ACHA) Division One squad, joining teammates Eric Buckley and Tyson Brouwer in making the move to Jamestown, North Dakota. “I can’t wait. It’s going to be the best time of my life,” Meier said. “I’m doing it with some of my best friends. It’s going to be an awesome experience. “It’s a huge opportunity to go with guys you already know and play well with and have chemistry with. You know you’re going to go in there and play. It was a no-brainer.” The University of Jamestown hockey program is in the process of being built by Penticton native Dean Stork. “The attraction to recruit in Kimberley was being that it has such great hockey tradition,” Stork said. “Very well coached and structured, which leads to success and discipline on the ice. Kimberley is a hockey powerhouse in the KIJHL year after year.” The Jimmies hockey program will be in its infancy in 2016-17, giving Meier the opportunity to carry some Kimberley hockey culture

south of the border. “It’s always been a dream, but you never really expect it,” said Meier, a native of Taber, Alta. “You always just think you’re going to end up working in the oil patch or something. It’s going to be a good experience and I’m looking forward to it.” Meier has been instrumental to the success of the Dynamiters since first joining the club in January 2015. “It’s outstanding. It’s a credit to winning. These guys get caught up with looking at goals and assists, but it’s not about it. It’s about being on a winning team,” said Jerry Bancks, head coach of the Dynamiters. “Coaches want winners and I think [Dean Stork] has identified some kids that are certainly going to help his program moving forward.” Meier, 20, is looking forward to studying business. Meier and the Nitros (23-3-0-3) look to extend a five-game winning streak Friday (7 p.m.) when they welcome the Columbia Valley Rockies (16-15-0-0) to the Kimberley Civic Centre.

HOROSCOPES by Jacqueline Bigar
ARIES (March 21-April 19) You might be eyeing a mini-getaway with relief and excitement. Consider making a gesture to make and keep the peace. If you understand where someone else is coming from, he or she will be more open to seeing matters from your point of view. Tonight: Try a new spot. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Your ability to make a difference comes forward. A friend means well, but might not be sure what to do. A new beginning becomes possible after a lengthy conversation. Someone clearly knows and understands that you care. Tonight: Be with a favorite person. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Your ability to move past a problem and come to an understanding emerges. You have an opportunity with your gift of gab to make the peace. As a result, you will find that solutions come easily. Don’t resort to finger-pointing. Tonight: Allow your imagination to take over.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Your creativity emerges. A budding flirtation could build to a lot more, should you want that type of connection. Resist going overboard in whatever you are involved with. Excess seems to happen naturally with you at this point in time. Tonight: Paint the town red. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You might be extremely playful. One-on-one relating will result in a compliment from someone you care about. Be direct with a friend about what is going on. You need to know where this person stands. Understanding evolves to a new level. Tonight: TGIF! VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You could be in a position where you feel pressured by a family member’s wants and needs. Realize that you are making a judgment about responsibilities. Ask for some help. People naturally respond positively to you. Tonight: Head home early, if you want. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You have a lot of energy and
Tundra
can apply it to any matter you consider to be important. Communication improves once you clear up a misunderstanding. You might feel as if you can tackle anything you want or need to. Tonight: Chat with a friend, and accept an invitation. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Be careful if handling funds right now. You easily could make a mistake when counting your change or while looking at your budget. A friend might try to convince you not to worry. However, he or she can be overly optimistic. Tonight: Treat a loved one to TGIF. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Your creativity and energy allow you to float right over any issue. A friend or loved one could push to have something go his or her way. You might want to stop and think through a decision rather than impulsively leap in. Tonight: Beam in what you want. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Sit back and look around. Though you will make a snap judgment, you shouldn’t act
on it. Keep your eyes open and see what happens. A higher-up will appreciate a direct response to his or her inquiry. Don’t try to guess what he or she wants; just ask. Tonight: Be discreet. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You are the sign of friendship, and your friends seem to be all over the place today. Wherever you go, an invitation seems to come along with a conversation. Decide where you want to be and with whom. Make plans accordingly. Tonight: Hang with your pals. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might want to frolic, but that means not handling certain responsibilities. You could be confused about what you can do under some tension-laden circumstances. Toss yourself into your to-do list and clear out as much as possible. Tonight: A force to be dealt with. BORN TODAY Musician Nikki Sixx (1958), U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry (1943), actor Rider Strong (1979) ***

By Hillary B. Price
ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: Every so often, you print a letter from someone who is concerned that a loved one has expressed a desire to commit suicide. Depending on the circumstances, what’s so terrible about that? When you have lived a full life and are in failing health, ending your life certainly seems to be a reasonable consideration for many. You know you are not going to get better, so why not end your life in the most humane way you can design for yourself? Dying is the last thing we do, so we may as well make it easy on ourselves. I’m 81 years old, have been married for 50 years, have two dozen grandchildren and greatgrandchildren, am in fair health and live comfortably. Should those circumstances change for the worse, I know how to end my life successfully. -- But Not Just Yet Dear Not Just Yet: There are already laws in place in three states that permit the terminally ill to hasten their deaths. If one is not expected to live much longer, and what’s left is mostly painful, we agree that the person should have some control over his or her death. But too many people decide on suicide because they are depressed. They aren’t in poor physical health. They aren’t terminally ill. They are in psychological pain and don’t believe life will ever improve. Laws must distinguish between those who might be helped through counseling or medication, and those whose doctors concur that, medically, there is no future beyond a few months. Anyone who would like additional information can contact Death With Dignity (deathwithdignity.org). Dear Annie: I am writing in response to “Anonymous,” who is undergoing chemotherapy and thinks people who want to visit are expecting too much of her to put on makeup, clean her house and shop for refreshments. Recently, both my husband and I were diagnosed with different forms of cancer. Family and friends visited, brought meals, phoned, emailed, texted and more. Typically, I would do all of the things Anonymous listed to welcome guests into our home, but it was too much. I determined that I preferred to welcome family and friends rather than push them away. So I might be in nightclothes with no makeup, with my bald head exposed in all its glory. I offered bottled water if I had it. Having the support and love of family and friends lifted us above and through the difficulties of our treatments and surgeries. My husband is in remission now, and I begin 33 rounds of radiation next week. My advice to those in our circumstances is to consider the benefits of allowing caring people into your world when coping with serious health issues. Feeling the love, and letting others lift your spirits when you may not have the energy to do so yourself is extremely valuable to recovery. -- The More the Merrier Dear More: No one expects a seriously ill person to look great, have a spotless home and bring refreshments as if you are hosting a lighthearted get-together. You are wise to see that friends and family simply want to spend time with you and provide support. We wish you and your husband complete recoveries.

Information
Johnny was born to Steve and Eve Kobza on December 23, 1941 in Cranbrook BC. Johnny lived his entire life in Canal Flats, growing up with his parents, working at the mill and raising his own family in the only place he ever wanted to be.  He relished any opportunity to adventure around the beautiful valley he called home, so much so that he only traveled away twice. He would always say â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why do I need to go anywhere when I have everything I need right here. It just doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get any better than this.â&#x20AC;? Johnny was an avid collector of discarded items and his yard became lovingly known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Johnny Martâ&#x20AC;?. If you needed a part you could likely find it there. Johnny had an infectious laugh and smile and was truly at home with the company of his family and friends. Johnny was young at heart, never looked his age and is gone way too soon. Johnny loved his family more then they will ever know.

Alberta passes controversial farm-safety bill Dean Benne t t Canadian Press
EDMONTON - One of the most turbulent Alberta legislature sittings in recent memory wrapped up Thursday with the passage of a contentious farm-safety bill. The NDP government passed the bill in third reading by using its legislative prerogative to cut off debate. House leader Brian Mason said there had been 20 hours of debate at the second reading alone and he suggested the opposition was just trying to stall. Mason said the crux of the bill was to provide to farm workers basic rights that workers in other industries have. “People have been dying on farms. People are injured on farms,” Mason told the house. “Those lives are worthwhile. Those lives are valuable. “Those families who’ve lost loved ones or whose breadwinners can no longer earn a living, they deserve support.” Opposition parties fought hard against the Enhanced Protection for Farm and Ranch Workers Act. They said it
Albertans have been protesting a controversial farm safety bill that was recently passed by the government needed more consultation with those affected. Farmers have held numerous protest rallies and convoys. They say they weren’t consulted enough and bureaucratic red tape will strangle the culture and profitability of family farms. It has been, at times, an ugly, vicious debate, with cabinet ministers being heckled, berated, and sworn at during consultation meetings with farmers. Energy Minister Marg McCuaig-Boyd, who is from a farm family, broke down in tears in the house recounting
some of the hate and vitriol she has endured. Premier Rachel Notley said while some people took their opposition “too far” she said “at the end of the day I feel very proud about the record that our government demonstrated this fall in the session.” Once proclaimed, the new legislation puts paid farm workers under new rules starting Jan. 1. They will be eligible for workers’ compensation benefits if injured on the job. Farms will also come under occupational health and safety rules.
Operators will be expected to meet a general standard of care until safety rules specific to their operations are crafted over the coming year. The rules will only apply to farms where there are paid workers. Farms that only use family members - paid or unpaid - are exempt. The farm bill uproar overshadowed a fall sitting that saw Notley’s government launch programs that - should they be realized over a decade from now - will fundamentally change the bedrock of Alberta’s
economy. Notley announced a plan for climate change reform that includes a broad-based carbon tax on everything from gasoline at the pumps to home heating and electricity. Oilsands emissions are to be capped and coal-fired plants are to be phased out. Despite nose-diving oil prices that have sent Alberta’s petro-economy deep into the red, the NDP passed a budget that ramps up spending on schools, roads, and hospitals and provides more cash for core services such as health and education. The bottom line is a forecasted $6.1-billion deficit this year and a projected $47 billion in capital debt before the end of the decade. Wildrose Leader Brian Jean said the NDP is taking Albertans where they don’t want to go. “We have seen the NDP put ideology and risky experiments ahead of what is best for Alberta and Albertans,” said Jean. “This NDP government is pushing ahead with an agenda opposed by the vast majority of Albertans.”
US says airstrikes have battered ISIS stronghold Robert Burns Associated Press
WASHINGTON - U.S. airstrikes in recent days killed an estimated 350 Islamic State fighters holed up in the western Iraqi city of Ramadi, an American military spokesman said Thursday, suggesting the extremists lost as much as half of their defending force. Col. Steve Warren, spokesman for the U.S. military command in Baghdad, told reporters at the Pentagon that there had been an estimated 600 to 1,000 Islamic State fighters inside Ramadi, which the extremist group captured in May. Despite this depletion of Islamic
State forces, U.S. officials are reluctant to predict how long it will take to reclaim the city, which is the capital of Anbar province and a key to the Iraqi government’s hopes of restoring its borders. Defence Secretary Ash Carter, speaking separately Thursday, said Iraqi progress in retaking Ramadi has been “disappointingly slow.” “I am certain it will fall, and we will assist in the making of it fall,” Carter said of Ramadi. He added that the U.S. would be willing to commit U.S. Army Apache attack helicopters to the battle for Ramadi, if the Iraqi government requests it
and if it would “make a strategically decisive difference.” Asked about that comment later, Warren said, “Apache helicopters are ready,” if Washington and Baghdad give the goahead. U.S. officials have frequently expressed frustration with how long it has taken the Iraqi army and other security forces to press an offensive in Ramadi, but in recent days, they have pointed to important battlefield progress. On Tuesday, Iraqi forces seized an IS operations centre and the strategic Tamim neighbourhood on the outskirts of the city. With approximately 10,000
troops, including federal police, committed to the fight for Ramadi, the Iraqis vastly outnumber the defenders. Iraqi Maj Gen. Ismail al-Mahlawi, head of military operations in Anbar province, said Thursday there are approximately 300 Islamic State fighters trapped in the centre of Ramadi, which lies on the Euphrates River. Separately, Warren announced that U.S. airstrikes in late November killed three senior IS leaders, including Abu Salah, described as the group’s financial minister and a holdover from the al-Qaida network.
Federal NDP wants special envoy to promote LGBTQ rights C anadian Press
OTTAWA - The federal New Democrats are urging the Liberals to follow the U.S. example and create a special envoy who would promote lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer rights around the world. The NDP lay out the
case for such an envoy in a letter sent this week to Foreign Affairs Minister Stephane Dion. U.S. President Barack Obama had a special envoy created earlier this year to promote LGBTQ rights around the world through diplomatic channels.
The American envoy, Randy Berry, started on the job in April. The NDP say creating a Canadian envoy would mark a return to Canada’s “traditional role as an international defender of diversity and equal rights.” And New Democrats
say it would send a “strong message” to the LGBTQ community in Canada and other countries, some of which have laws making it illegal to be gay. The NDP letter is part of the party’s push to make itself the opposition voice on LGBTQ issues, part of NDP
Leader Tom Mulcair’s hope to brand the thirdplace party as the “progressive opposition” in the House of Commons. Mulcair raised concerns about not excluding gay and transgender Syrian refugees when the government was set to unveil how its refugee screening plan.

A coal mine is set to begin construction in mid-2017 near the Crowsnest Pass. Riversdale Resources through its wholly owned subsidiary, Benga Mining, has applied for a permit to make a surface metallurgical coal mine, or open pit coal mine. The project proposal consists of a mine and a coal processing plant. The processing plant will include an overland conveyor system and a new section of rail track.

Clark believes 640 of these jobs will be in Alberta and 410 in British Columbia. The Crowsnest Pass area is expected to land 245 jobs and 155 in Sparwood, bringing younger

families to these communities. The coal industry is currently in a downward trend. Riversdale believes that this is one of the best times to start a new project because the initial start-up costs are at a lower rate than if coal was in a higher demand. “Riversdale’s team has tended to build mines during industry downturns as we find that the construction costs are significantly lower and there is less competition for equipment and specialist consultants,” said Mallyon.
