OTTAWA — The Canadian Security Intelligence Service repeatedly obtained taxpayer information from the Canada Revenue Agency without presenting a court-approved warrant for the data.

That revelation was among several concerns raised in the latest annual report of the Security Intelligence Review Committee, which monitors CSIS compliance with law and policy.

The report tabled Thursday said the spy service must do more to ensure insiders don’t pilfer secret material. It also urged CSIS to inform the Federal Court how it uses metadata — the telltale digital trails that accompany messages and phone calls — collected from cyberspace.

The findings came the same day the watchdog over the Communications Security Establishment, Canada’s electronic spy agency, found the CSE had improperly shared metadata about Canadians with key foreign allies.

The reports prompted the NDP to express concern about erosion of civil liberties.

Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale stressed the Liberal government was embarking on a comprehensive review of Canada’s national security and intelligence framework with the twin aims of effective security and respect for rights.

Far from being an isolated incident, there were “multiple instances” of a CSIS regional office getting warrantless access

to taxpayer data from the federal revenue agency, the review committee said in its report for 2014-15.

Questions about the practice were first raised by the Federal Court, prompting CSIS to ask the review committee to look into the matter.

Following the incident, there were assurances the sensitive revenue agency information had been purged from a CSIS database when, in fact, it was still there, the review committee’s report says.

Spy service management issued a “stern reminder” to employees of the need for a warrant to collect taxpayer information, but the review committee says that may not be sufficient.

The committee made several recommendations, calling on CSIS to assess its own handling of the incident after it became clear information had been

improperly collected. The spy service complied with that request.

Review committee chairman Pierre Blais said CSIS had made “a mistake” but he expressed confidence the committee would not “see that in the future.”

The Canada Revenue Agency had no immediate explanation as to why it gave CSIS the data.

The review committee says it also found shortcomings in the spy service’s training, investigation and record-keeping practices intended to manage so-called insider threats.

Concern about such threats has grown due to recent breaches by intelligence employees in the United States and Canada, the committee noted.

Former U.S. spy contractor Edward Snowden leaked a trove of files revealing widespread surveillance by the U.S. National Security Agency, while Jeffrey

Paul Delisle, a Canadian naval intelligence officer, sold sensitive secrets to the Russians.

The review committee found insufficient training, gaps in policy and procedures, and a lack of managerial feedback for those at CSIS working on internal security investigations.

It also concluded procedures governing internal probes were unclear.

In addition, the committee found CSIS did not properly document decision-making about investigations.

The review committee singled out one particular internal investigation, finding CSIS “had failed to give the case the appropriate level of attention and scrutiny, and to take followup action.”

The committee recommended CSIS re-examine the case due to concerns about internal policy violations and “possible information breaches.”

Andrea Rosato-Taylor Final words

I

would like to thank the community for their support of the Nanaimo Daily News.

When I started at the Daily News approximately nine years ago, I had never worked or lived in a small market.

I worked for the San Francisco Chronicle and Examiner and then when I moved to Canada the Vancouver Sun and Province.

When I got the opportunity to work in Nanaimo, I jumped at the chance. I fell in love right away with the city, its people, the paper and the community.

I could not imagine how lucky I was to be a part of something so authentic.

People truly cared about each other.

Everywhere I went business leaders were lending their support to organizations that supported those who were less fortunate.

I joined Rotary, became involved as a director of the Chamber of Commerce (which I loved), was co-chairwoman of the symphony fundraiser, worked on merchandise committee for Dragonboat and more.

The experience was always the same — people who really cared about each other and the community in which they serve.

In this community I found my “Why?” because of my experience at the Nanaimo Daily News and the experience of living and working in this city.

Some people go on treks to India, or other exotic places to find themselves.

I found my heart and soul in Nanaimo.

Thank you to all the people at the Nanaimo Daily News. You became my family and will always be a part of who I am today.

Thank you to all the advertisers organizations— and especially the people — that welcomed me into their hearts.

You enriched my life. » Daily News publisher Andrea Rosato-Taylor can be reached at 250-729-4248.

The Nanaimo Daily News has given me the honour and opportunity to work alongside you as we both grew our respective businesses together. You and the paper have helped me put together some great community events that have resulted in improving the lives of a lot of less fortunate people. Together we made history and that history will live on in the archived pages of the Nanaimo Daily News.

It was my pleasure to work with you, to provide you with creative ideas, campaigns and customer service that along the way helped your business grow.

Thank you for believing in my skills, for supporting me, and for becoming great friends.

To be a part of the history of the paper and the local media for the last 24 years was nothing short of amazing, but it will be my customers and those community groups that we helped that I will miss the most.

I’m not sure what the future holds but I do hope it will be as exciting as the past and that you will all still be part of it.

Thank you for your kindness, understanding, patience and for being a big part of my life. I will certainly miss seeing you on a regular basis.

It has been an honour to be a journalist here Spencer Anderson Reporting

T

his is the last article I write for the Nanaimo Daily News.

The finality of that sentence is hard for me.

For the people who have worked for this great newspaper for decades of their lives, I have no doubt the pain is more acutely felt.

It has been a struggle for all of us during this last week.

But in these last few paragraphs, I want to say what an honour it has been to work in this city.

To be a good reporter, editor or any kind of journalist is a great privilege and a terrible responsibility.

It’s a privilege because you can tell stories that inform, amuse and enrich the lives of people who deem your work worthy of reading.

It’s a responsibility because you are entrusted, on a daily basis, with the information, hopes and reputations of people from all walks of life.

It is a sacred trust.

On that latter point, I would like to thank the people I have worked with and hounded, bothered and otherwise annoyed over the last three-anda-half years.

That’s particularly the case at city hall. I want to say for the record that the majority of my interactions with city staff and elected officials have been enlightening, informative and respectful.

I went into this job believing that most people who get into public service do so for the right reasons, and nothing has changed that.

I have been blessed with being part of a boisterous, fun-loving newsroom where we all bust each other’s chops.

It has never been boring, especially when my stories are filed late.

(It would be remiss of me not to mention that as I type this, I am the last person to file for the final issue).

I would like to say one more thing to those reading this.

It is a disheartening time for our ‘traditional’ media, especially print.

Newsgathering organizations are struggling with shrinking revenue and a changing landscape increasingly dominated by the online world.

One thing that will never change is this: democracy needs journalism, and journalism needs resources.

So please support your media. If you see something that bothers you, tell them.

If you want to see them do things differently, tell them.

Challenge. Engage, because they want to engage with you.

The only thing left to do is end with a quote.

“Here lies my past. Good-bye I have kissed it; Thank you, kids. I wouldn’t have missed it.” – Ogden Nash.

Farewell.

Passion and insight filled ‘Daily News’ pages Robert Barron

Reporting

I

t’s been quite a ride. I’ve been working at the Nanaimo Daily News for 15 years, and I count that time as some of the best years of my life.

I’ve covered quite a number of stories important to the community over the years.

I followed every detail and contro-

versy surrounding the city’s decision in 2004 to build the Vancouver Island Conference City in downtown Nanaimo, an issue that polarized the community.

I’ve also followed the many issues and follies of the Nanaimo-Ladysmith school district, from the controversial firing of its superintendent Carola Lane in 2003, to the decision to scrap a government-approved $87-million facilities plan in 2008, which still reverberates.

Then there was the successful takeover of the Harmac pulp mill by its workers in 2008 after its parent company, Pope & Talbot, went

bankrupt.

That story went national and showed just what a committed bunch of people can do if they set their minds to it.

That’s why when concerns were first being raised in the newsroom that we were in deep financial trouble, I initially dismissed them as being alarmist.

I felt that in the long run, common sense would prevail and a course of action would be decided upon to ensure that the survival of the Daily News, which has been in operation for more than 140 years after all, would be able to continue.

They did it at Harmac, I figured, and if push came to shove, some solutions to ensure the longevity of the paper would be found.

That dream came apart last Friday when it was announced that the Nanaimo Daily News was closing for good.

My colleagues in the newsroom, as well as all the other departments in the business, are left in shock and scrambling to find other employment.

We are all hard-working professionals, however, and I’m sure all of us will find suitable employment over time.

But, after 15 years at my desk, I will miss the camaraderie and friendships that I’ve been fortunate enough to cultivate in my time here.

I will certainly miss dealing with and writing about issues in Nanaimo and the mid-Island region.

I just hope that the remaining media in the city will cover the stories with the same passion and insight that we brought to these pages over the decades.

Goodbye Nanaimo, and thanks for all the fun and excitement.

It’s been a privilege to work here.

Being part of final chapter is quite bittersweet Reporting

N

ews of the demise of the Daily News was a shock.

It came in the afternoon, a week ago today.

debt on top of bank loans, to the point where liquidation of smaller properties like the Daily News was seen as the only way to preserve the mother ship.

Then there was Postmedia, and Paul Godfrey’s vision for electronic news delivery as the revenue generator of the future.

We all know how that ended.

In any case, when Postmedia needed to cut costs, it flipped its Vancouver Island properties to Glacier.

Glacier had a variety of unique ideas, but when it became clear none of those ideas were generat-

ing revenue, Glacier sold the Daily News and numerous other papers to Black Press.

By the time Black took over, we all knew it was do or die.

Sadly, you’re now reading the epitaph of the newspaper Nanaimo readers have loved, trusted, become angry over, and occasionally shed a tear with, for 141 years.

It’s the end for thousands upon thousands of pages of recorded history, dating back to when Nanaimo was a bustling frontier town.

There is something bittersweet about being part of the final chapter in one of Vancouver Island’s

original newspapers.

There were times in my eight years reporting the news was challenging, but never boring.

When I look back on this period of my life — and Nanaimo’s history — it’s the people I’ll remember.

I’ll remember the debates, the disagreements but most of all I’ll remember the endless laughs shared at our morning story meetings and through the day.

A tip for non-journalists: The symbol -30- tells a typesetter a news story is done.

Now it’s time to type -30- and say goodbye.

I won’t forget the look of stunned disbelief on my co-workers’ faces.

It confirmed for me something I’d suspected for a while.

Because, as much as people see their community newspaper as a fundamental democratic institution — which it is — the truth is, it’s also a business.

Unfortunately, as I learned shortly after starting here in 2008, the Daily News as a business was in trouble, and its owners at the time, Canwest, were in even bigger trouble.

The global economic collapse that year didn’t help, as Canwest piled

CITY HALL

City stalls on releasing contract dollar figures SPENCER ANDERSON DAILY NEWS

The City of Nanaimo is withholding costs-to-date for two separate, high-profile contracts.

One is for construction of a spillway at the lower Colliery dam, a project the city undertook amid protests from some park users but pressure and threats of enforcement action from the province’s water comptroller.

The second contract was for conflict resolution work at the council level. It was revealed last July that the city had hired Vancouver-based firm Integrity Group after Mayor Bill McKay became concerned tensions and disrespectful comments made between council

members early on in council’s first year.

The Colliery dams project was approved without a fixed budget — or ‘cost-plus’ contract — due to tight deadlines in the provincial order.

Local officials feared the province could take enforcement action like imposing fines or removing the city’s water licence.

The Daily News has sought information on the project’s cost to date since at least early January. Toby Seward, acting senior director of strategic operations for the city, declined to provide any figures on Jan. 4, adding he needed to review the information.

On Thursday, city communications

manager Philip Cooper replied by email on behalf of engineering and public works director Geoff Goodall, who was away from the office.

“The information regarding project costs for the construction of the auxiliary spillway is being prepared and will be shared shortly with council in the form of a report at an upcoming meeting,” Cooper said. “The city does not have completed figures it can share at this time.”

As for the contract with the Integrity Group, the city’s finance department has confirmed it has received the invoices for the contract, but finance director Victor Mema said on Jan. 18 he was unable to release the figure,

adding he had to review the material.

The Daily News was later referred to the city’s legislative services department. Department manager Chris Jackson said the information would be subject to a Freedom of Information request, as the total sum for the contract or terms of the contract have not been released on a routine basis and contains third-party information.

Jackson said he has not seen details of the contract and therefore could not comment on why the information has not been released voluntarily.

EDUCATION

Parent concerned for student safety at North Cedar Intermediate School ROBERT BARRON DAILY NEWS

Jackie Wasyluk wants to know if her child will be safe when school begins next year.

Wasyluk has a child currently attending Woodbank Primary School, but plans are underway that will see all students transferred to North Cedar Intermediate School in September.

But in a letter to the school board, Wasyluk said she has concerns about the structural integrity of NCIS. She said NCIS has been rated as at a “high-risk and vulnerable to damage and structural failure” by the Ministry of Education in the event of a major earthquake.

“Will you please advise if

“I ask you, as parents, how you would you feel knowing that your child is attending a high-risk school that is not structurally safe?”

Jackie Wasyluk, parent

upgrades have been approved to proceed, and if they will be completed (by September)?” Wasyluk asked the school board.

“I ask you, as parents, how you would you feel knowing that your child is attending a highrisk school that is not structurally safe?”

The district plans to shift Woodbank’s students to NCIS, with the school’s name changed to Cedar Elementary School.

The move is part of the district’s long-range plan to deal with declining enrolment and increasing costs.

Superintendent John Blain said the school is safe for students, despite its listing as one of the 126 schools across the province that are considered by the ministry as “high-risk” to structural failure in an earthquake.

He said it’s the school’s gym that is specifically at high risk, and the rest of the school building meets safety standards.

Blain said most of the other 126 school buildings on the list are also in use, with many of

them considered more vulnerable than NCIS. A deadline to seismically upgrade all the schools had been set for 2020, but last year, former Education Minister Peter Fassbender moved that deadline back between five and 10 years.

“We wouldn’t put our students in any danger by placing them in any school that we consider unsafe,” Blain said.

“But the school gym at NCIS was built at a time when different construction requirements were being used, and it will be replaced sometime in the future when the funding from the ministry becomes available.”

Mother’s petition targets MSP premiums DARRELL BELLAART DAILY NEWS

The Island mom behind an online petition to reform health care premiums isn’t buying Premier Christy Clark’s idea to give single-parent families a break.

Ucluelet business owner Michelle Coulter started a petition to eliminate Medical Service Pan premiums because her adult children couldn’t afford the premiums when they became old enough to be responsible for them.

Her change.org petition has more than 65,000 signatures since she launched it Dec. 18.

This week CBC News reported Clark plans to “reduce monthly health premiums for single-parent families” in its next provincial budget.

“I’d like to have more signatures by the time the budget is read in February. I’d like to be pushing for 100,000 by then.”

Michelle Coulter, business owner

The changes would mean $75 in savings on MSP premiums for such families, but would not take effect until Jan. 1, 2017.

Coulter is less than impressed.

“Let me guess, is it another application form,” Coulter said, a note of sarcasm in her voice. “Is she going to make single parent families apply?”

She said it’s a “doesn’t meet our criteria,” which is to abolish premiums entirely.

B.C. is the only province where earners of $30,000 or more all pay the full premium amount.

Alberta, which eliminated MSP premiums for all residents in 2008, but reinstated them last year, charging Albertans who earn more than $50,000 health care between $200 and $1,000 a year, based on income.

Coulter said she and her supporters want government to bring the province in line with other provinces. And she wants it now, not in a year.

“If she is serious, she would do it for the 2016 budget, and not pick which families to support. She would support all B.C. families.”

With an election in 2017, the matter is now being raised by other parties.

B.C. Green Party Leader Andrew Weaver promised to make the fees income based, the same as Ontario.

With so many signatures in s ix weeks, Coulter wants to keep up the pressure and gather more signatures leading up to Feb. 16, when the provincial budget will be released.

“I’ll take as many as I can get,” she said “I’d like to have more signatures by the time the budget is read in February. I’d like to be pushing for 100,000 by then.”

The petition is at www.change. org/p/christyclarkbc-abolishmsp-premiums-in-bc.

his newspaper may have been bought, owned and run by various companies in the years since it was started by George Norris 141 years ago.

But the Daily Free Press and then the Daily News has always been your newspaper. The staff who have worked here over the years — in ad sales, editorial, production, the press, administration, carriers — all were part of a commitment that was more than a business venture.

A daily newspaper needs to makes money, as the departing staff of the Daily News sadly know only too well

as we put out this last issue. And a newspaper is also a daily revelation on every page, and not just for news.

With heavy hearts we speak for the staff of past decades as well as those departing today when we say we have striven to give you the latest and the best not just in news, but also in entertainment, sports and special events.

Our advertising no less linked you, the reader, with what is important in this community.

This community has turned to the Daily News/Free Press for details of every major event for more than a century. From mine disasters to world wars; moon landings to the crumbling of the Berlin Wall and everything in between, the daily has always been there.

We have also been there with minor hockey scores, pigeon racing results . . . you name it. The daily has always been there.

Sadly, after today, that’s no longer the case.

As we close the doors for a final time, it’s imperative to note that a newspaper is so much more than its news coverage.

If the editorial department is out front, it’s only because of the support of many people whose work is not on the front page.

In that regard, there are many hard-working people to thank at the Daily News, from front to back, from the first to last page, from the first edition to our last today. Our advertising and sales department had talented, hardworking and commit-

ted souls who understood that if they wanted the community to support us with advertising, we needed to support the community. They did that in spades.

Our production staff had the talent and ability to match that commitment and hard work, designing and making advertisements that earned them a reputation for excellence.

And there were the people who worked very hard at making sure the Daily News ran smoothly so that production, sales and editorial could get their jobs done. Enough cannot be said about their skills at organizing, administering and sorting what would otherwise have been a regular conundrum.

I would like to add my voice to those who say they are sad to see this newspaper quietly fade away.

I have been a subscriber since I first moved to Nanaimo in the mid-1980s. I enjoy starting my day with a dose of the local news along with my morning coffee. I will especially miss the always interesting coverage of the shenanigans at council meetings.

I was quite impressed with the new format of the paper and the increased coverage of Island and even international news. It’s too bad the owners didn’t have the financial resources to give the new format a chance to catch on with local subscribers.

So long, Daily News, I will miss you and the great work of your local reporting staff. I hope they will be able to continue their careers in journalism in some way.

Sense of community was created by this paper I write this letter with a heavy heart. I would like to thank the Nanaimo Daily News for even existing, because if it hadn’t, I wouldn’t be here writing this letter.

It was the summer of 1966 that my Dad, Ron Ravnborg, received a transfer from the Lethbridge Times Herald to the Nanaimo Daily Free Press.

He was a typesetter in the press room and saw a lot of changes in his 27 years of working there.

For my sister and myself, our first job was as paper carriers for the Free Press being the only girls that picked up their routes at the paper shack on Skinner Street. It was male territory!

The Daily News has played a huge

part in our lives and I’m very sad to see this happen. I have enjoyed the many writers over the years. People like Lynn Welburn and Mark McDonald come to mind.

The Daily Free Press has been central to what has made us a community. Maybe it was cutting out a clipping of your friends baseball team or a local school event, maybe to read of someone’s passing, or to check what was going on in the city.

It gave us a sense of community and that’s what makes me feel so sad.

The times they are a changing, but with out a sense of belonging and community, of which the newspaper gives many of us, it leaves a void.

I want to wish each and everyone at the Daily News thank you and the very best.

After almost 50 years of reading the paper every day, it will be missed.

And thanks to my Dad for taking that job!

Kim Bayliss Nanaimo

Loss of primary news source is a sad moment This is just a short note rather than a letter to tell you both my husband and I are saddened at the ending of Nanaimo Daily News.

We have lived in Nanaimo only going on five years and have been subscribers through that time. We love to read of local news of Nanaimo and the Island, sports and world but especially local news.

The crossword challenged and stimulated. Phillip Wolf’s editorials led to discussion. Why Black Press would alter and improve the format of the paper, which we quite enjoyed, and then take it away from us must boil down to money.

Our breakfast will not be the same without your news. Sorry to see you go. Good luck to you all.

RCMP to reduce auxiliary police role

Director wants road upgrade

ERIN HALUSCHAK COMOX VALLEY RECORD

Comox Valley RCMP auxiliary officers — and those across the country — will no longer participate in ride-alongs, and firearms familiarization training will end, following a year-long review to the program.

In a memo earlier this week from RCMP Deputy Commissioner Janice Armstrong, the program will see other changes affecting the 1,600 volunteers, including changes to the current auxiliary uniform, a national activity matrix outlining the duties of auxiliary constables will be created and a national training standard will be instituted.

Cpl. Janelle Shoihet, media relations officer for E Division stated in an email the program has been under review since 2014, following the shooting of an unarmed member of the Canadian Forces.

“All regular members and staff were warned to be vigilant when in public, especially those in uniform, and a directive was issued requiring that Auxiliary Constables working in uniform be under the direct supervision of (regular officer) equipped with all intervention tools.”

RCMP officers along with auxiliary volunteers lent a hand last summer at the RCMP Youth Camp at CFB Quadra in Comox. [ERIN HALUSCHAK]

She added the focus of the directive was on the safety of their volunteers.

“There is consideration being given to changing the current

auxiliary uniform as we recognize, while on duty they are identified as police officers, which puts them at risk of harm.

French Creek director Joe Stanhope is demanding change after a fatal hit-and-run along Roberton Boulevard earlier this month that he called “preventable.”

The incident claimed the life of an 80-year-old woman and reignited the call for safer streets from neighbours living in the Morningstar area.

Stanhope brought forward a motion to the Regional District of Nanaimo meeting Tuesday night that “the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure be requested to recognize the unique urban nature of Roberton Boulevard within electoral area G and take immediate action to install traffic calming measures to reduce the speed limit and install improved facilities for cyclists and pedestrians.”

Stanhope asked for the board’s support in light of the “tragic” accident.

“The road (Roberton Boulevard) is narrow and confusing . . . it’s in my area which is the most urbanized electoral area in the province,” he said.

The motion passed.

MP rails against high gas prices

Pumps Band-aid for river flow

Amalgamation talks soften

Vancouver Islanders are being hit with some of the largest disparities in gas prices and on Tuesday, NDP MP Gord Johns (Courtenay-Alberni) demanded action from the federal government to tackle ongoing price gouging at the pumps.

“Last week in my community . . . the price of gas was $1.16 a litre. It was the highest in the country, more than the Northwest Territories,” Johns said Tuesday in the House of Commons.

“I want to know what this government will do to protect consumers, to have fairness at the pump and take price gouging seriously,” said Johns.

The dwindling water levels in the Cowichan River are getting worse each year and pumping water over the Lake Cowichan weir is only a Band-aid solution according to its owner, Catalyst Paper Corporation.

“Pumping is not a good long-term solution,” company’s vice president Harold Norlund repeated throughout his presentation. “Drought conditions are here, the river changes are here. We need to have a conversation about medium and long-term solutions.”

Catalyst owns the Lake Cowichan weir and relies on water from the river in order to maintain operations at its mill in Crofton.

Mayors in Greater Victoria municipalities are looking at efficiencies between them as discussions around the amalgamation issue turn soft.

Sidney Mayor Steve Price says the 13 regional municipal mayors met about two weeks ago with B.C. Minister in charge of community services Peter Fassbender.

Price said discussion quickly moved from amalgamation to integration — how the region’s 13 municipalities can find cost efficiencies, instead of an outright blending of communities.

In November, Fassbender stated the province would not do a study on amalgamation, but speak with mayors on how to proceed.

perform crime prevention, community engagement and other duties, “which in communities such as Courtenay they are our greatest asset.”

The Comox Valley RCMP detachment has 21 auxiliary volunteers.

In a nationwide public online forum for auxiliaries, many reacted against the changes.

“I think most of us feel let down by the RCMP. Many of us have put in thousands (of) hours into training and on the front lines just to be punched in the gut by management,” one post read in part.

“Thinking about this . . . the tax base will have to go up for everyone.

“No more extra set of eyes for the RM’s. That means the RCMP will have to hire a ton of recruits to fill in the holes and that is gonna be expensive,” read another.

The RCMP Auxiliary Constable Program was first introduced in 1963 to enhance community policing and crime prevention initiatives.

The programs are administered within 10 contract provinces and territories which does not include Ontario or Quebec.

Parents line up for French

Town strikes out on airport grant funds

LEXI BAINAS COWICHAN VALLEY CITIZEN

Janice Hickey and Candace Elliott were the first to arrive at Duncan’s École Mt Prevost, settling into their chairs and blankets by the front door at 11:30 p.m. Saturday night, Jan. 24.

They were the vanguard of a group of parents eager to be at the front of the line to get their children into the Cowichan Valley school district’s popular French immersion program.

A startled security guard, who arrived at 3 a.m. on Sunday on his rounds, tried to shoo them away, claiming they were on private property, they said.

“Nobody told him that people might be here,” Hickey said. “He tried to get us to move to our cars and off the property but we stayed right here.”

Then the pair were alone again, until other folks began arriving at 5 a.m. to camp as they all waited for the doors to open for kindergarten registration early on Monday.

Both women were willing to brave the cold and discomfort because they see a great advantage in their children learning French from childhood.

As the program’s value becomes more and more known, they said, they knew they’d have to take advantage of an opportunity, thankful that the Cowichan Valley district doesn’t use a lottery system to choose entrants, like some other districts.

“We don’t like the lottery idea. At least this way we know, if we make

the effort, our kids will get in,” Hickey said.

Elliott has only one child of kindergarten age, but she has another at home and wants to see that one enrolled eventually at Mt. Prevost as well, as the sibling of a current student.

Both Hickey and Elliott live in Duncan, but not all the parents were from nearby. Some were from as far away as Lake Cowichan.

They were chilly overnight but by noon Sunday some of the early

campers had brought mobile heaters to stave off the cold for the crowd of about 20 parents already assembled along the walls by the school. Everyone was glad the recent torrential rains had stopped.

Some people had brought tents, some were sitting in sleeping bags and warm blankets on chairs.

French immersion only makes sense, Elliott said.

“After all this is Canada and French is really good to have. But this is a great school anyway.”

No grants have come through for the Alberni-Clayoquot Regional District’s runway expansion, according to CAO Russell Dyson.

The ACRD had originally hoped to cover two-thirds of the cost of the runway expansion with grant funding but with the news that their application to the Strategic Priorities Fund was unsuccessful, they board of directors will have to either borrow $6M or try for new grant funding.

According to Port Alberni director Jack McLeman, the ‘yes’ vote the ACRD received during the alternate approval process is a strong mandate to proceed with our without grant funding.

“I think we should go ahead, we had the vote and not a lot of people came out for the ‘no’ side,” said McLeman. When the (alternate approval process} was held this summer, only 1.5 per cent of valid electors within the Alberni Valley voted against ACRD’s plan to borrow up to $6 million to fund the Alberni Valley Regional Airport expansion.

Speaking back in August, Dyson said that the two bylaws that the board adopted will allow them to “borrow up to $6M and requisition up to $466,250 or $0.15 per $1000 of taxable value (whichever is greater) for airport related services.”

However, they do not have to borrow the maximum amount or any amount whatsoever, Dyson said.

McLeman said he’s unsurprised that the ACRD didn’t get money for the AVRA expansion, citing the $1.27 million the Long Beach Airport in Tofino received this summer.

“The feds take that as ‘we got ours,’” said McLeman.

The airport expansion includes a longer and wider runway (approximately 1000 feet of additional length and 25 feet of additional width), medium-intensity lighting and GPS service. The GPS service was not reliant on grant funding and is factored into the ACRD’s capital budget. The upgrades would allow for bigger planes to land at the airport, even with the Alberni Valley’s often foggy weather—including Coulson’s C130s and C295s. Commercial, scheduled flights would also be an option down the road.

McLeman said that it’s important to go ahead to keep securing further investment.

“People want to invest money in this town and everyone I’ve talked to said it’s a no-brainer. It generates economic development.” » We want to hear from you.

Two new MLAs expected in time for new session Winners of two Lower Mainland by-elections will join 83 other MLAs when the B.C. legislature begins its spring sitting Feb. 9 with a Speech from the Throne.

Finance Minister Mike de Jong will present his 2016-17 budget Feb. 16.

The government has signalled that among the measures will be a 50 per cent reduction to Medical Services Plan premiums for single parents who earn more than $30,000 a year and pay the family rate of $150 a year.

Byelections set for Feb. 2 were triggered last summer when Coquitlam-Burke Mountain B.C. Liberal MLA Doug Horne and Vancouver-Mount Pleasant NDP MLA Jenny Kwan resigned to run in the October 2015 federal election.

The latest review of B.C. electoral boundaries has resulted in creation of two more seats in time for the next election in May 2017. The new seats are Surrey South and Richmond-Queensborough, taking in part of New Westminster and reflecting large population growth.

Firefighters in Surrey and Vancouver will be the first to carry kits to administer naloxone to people suffering from opioid drug overdoses.

Ambulance paramedics have long been equipped with the drug, but the program is being expanded to firefighters after an increase in overdoses to opioid drugs such as heroin, oxycodone and fentanyl.

Fire departments across the province can join the program by signing an agreement with B.C. Emergency Health Services to provide physician oversight, after regulations were changed to allow fire rescue first responders to administer naloxone.

B.C.’s health ministry funds services including needle distribution, opioid substitution treatment, two supervised injection sites in Vancouver and a “take home naloxone” program with kits available at 120 B.C. sites. The ministry estimates that 370 opioid drug overdoses have been reversed by the treatment.

NHLer gets three-year hunting ban TAMSYN BURGMANN THE CANADIAN PRESS

National Hockey League player Clayton Stoner is banned from hunting for three years and must pay $10,000 for killing a grizzly bear on British Columbia’s central coast.

The Anaheim Ducks defenceman admitted through his lawyer on Wednesday that he had breached the provincial Wildlife Act. Marvin Stern said his client mistakenly believed he was qualified to participate.

Stoner wasn’t in the Abbotsford, B.C., court. Instead, Stern pleaded guilty on his behalf to hunting without a licence.

Study says schools fail kids on reserve

Firefighters set to add naloxone to medical kits

GEORDON OMAND THE CANADIAN PRESS

Reserve schools are failing Canada’s aboriginal students and there is no quick-and-easy fix, says a new report from the C.D. Howe Institute.

A study released Thursday by the research group found that only four of 10 young adults living on reserves across the country have finished high school.

Those figures contrast sharply with graduation rates of seven out of 10 for off-reserve aboriginals and nine out of 10 for non-aboriginals. The study also found eight out of 10 Metis graduate from high school across the country.

John Richards, one of the study’s authors, said any attempt at reform needs to be multi-pronged and more incremental than earlier attempts at sweeping, legislative solutions.

“There’s no silver bullet here.

Giving more money won’t fix it all,” Richards said in an interview, adding that an increase in funding is still an essential part of any viable plan to improve on-reserve schools.

The study called Students in Jeopardy: An Agenda for Improving Results in Band-Operated Schools highlights the many repercussions stemming from low levels of education, including unemployment, poverty, limited social and economic opportunities, crime, health problems and ongoing dependence on government for housing.

“This bleak prospect should make improving education results for on-reserve students imperative for bands, the (Assembly of First Nations) and the federal government,” states the report.

“This bleak prospect should make improving education results for on-reserve students imperative.”

Students in Jeopardy, study

The research singles out British Columbia as leading the country for high-school certification on reserves, coming in at nearly 60 per cent — handily topping the national average of 42 per cent.

B.C. Education Minister Mike Bernier was quoted late last year as celebrating a nine-percentage-point jump in the aboriginal graduation rate in the province over the past six years, both on and off reserves.

In comparison, the graduation level in Manitoba was pegged at 30 per cent, about half that of British Columbia’s.

Richards attributed B.C.’s relative success to several factors, including the presence of a province-wide aboriginal education group that acts as a pseudo-school board, as well as collaboration between B.C.’s First Nations Education Steering Committee, the province and the federal government.

He spoke against focusing immediately on legislation as a solution, referencing the high-profile failures in that area.

Instead, Richards pushed for incremental change by increasing reserve-school funding, setting clear and measurable targets, regularly assessing those targets and affirming band responsibilities.

“If one hunts, then one must do so responsibly,” he said when handing down his sentence.

The Crown dropped four other charges against Stoner, including knowingly making a false statement to obtain a hunting licence, hunting out of season, and unlawfully possessing dead wildlife.

Stoner was charged in connection to the hunt in May 2013.

The case first gained media attention when graphic photos were published of Stoner holding up a bear’s severed head. First Nations and environmentalists claimed the animal was Cheeky, a star tourist attraction in B.C.’s Great Bear Rainforest.

But after he was charged, Stoner,

30, requested a DNA test on the bear.

The B.C. Conservation Officer Service conducted the tests and determined the animal was 18 years old, not the five-year-old Cheeky, Stern told the court.

Stoner has been vilified in the media in both Canada and the United States, Stern said.

“It clearly wasn’t Cheeky.”

Outside the court, representatives of the area First Nations and a conservation group still maintained that the deceased bear was Cheeky. They said they may have been mistaken on the popular bear’s age, noting guardians had witnessed Stoner interact with Cheeky within hours before the kill.

SALMON ARM

Parents who spanked daughter over sexting guilty THE CANADIAN PRESS

SALMON ARM — A British Columbia mother and father who used a plastic hockey stick and a skipping rope to spank their 14-year-old daughter have been found guilty of assault with a weapon.

A provincial court heard the couple from Salmon Arm wanted to punish their daughter for send-

ing nude photos to a young man over the Internet and instead of being grounded, the teen chose the spanking.

Her father used a mini hockey stick two or three times on his daughter’s buttocks over her pyjama pants and when her mother came home, she delivered a similar punishment with a skipping rope.

When the girl went to school with

lacerations and bruises, her friends told administrators, who called RCMP. The father testified during the trial that he had no clue that the law doesn’t allow corporal punishment or that he might be breaking the law when he spanked his daughter.

Judge Edmond de Walle said he was troubled by the father’s denial of the girl’s bruising as described by her

friends and there was no evidence he looked at the girl’s injuries after the spanking.

“The testimony of the father regarding the injuries to his daughter suggests that he is downplaying the seriousness of the events that took place in the garage of his home,” he said in his ruling posted online earlier this month.

“At the very least the father’s evi-

dence leads me to conclude that he gave little thought, if any, to the possible injuries suffered by his daughter.”

The judge said the child knew her parents believed the discipline came from their adherence to the Bible, which they said advocates the use of the “rod” to spank, rather than the hand, as hands are to be used as instruments of love.

Legal pot revenues could be $5B a year CIBC report uses Colorado sales figures to arrive at amount BRUCE CHEADLE THE CANADIAN PRESS

OTTAWA — Call it Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s secret stash.

A new report from CIBC World Markets says Canada’s federal and provincial governments could reap as much as $5 billion annually in tax revenues from the sale of legal marijuana.

CIBC economist Avery Shenfeld crunched the numbers using current estimates of Canadian recreational pot consumption, the revenue experience in U.S. states that have legalized, and other factors — such as prevailing “sin tax” rates on alcohol and tobacco.

“The bottom line is that federal (and) provincial governments might reap as much as $5 billion from legalization, but only if all the underground sales are effectively curtailed,” writes Shenfeld.

“That’s on the order of 0.25 per cent of GDP, no barnburner.”

The Liberal government has promised to legalize, tax and regulate marijuana and has made MP Bill Blair, the former Toronto police chief, the lead on investigating a new regulatory model.

Trudeau maintains that legalized pot will not be a cash cow, and that all revenues will be used to address mental health and addictions issues.

“It was never about a money-maker, it was always about public health, public safety,” the prime minister said in December during a year-end interview.

The experience of Colorado and Washington states, where pot sales were legalized and taxed, suggests no dramatic increase in marijuana usage but a potential for pot tourism.

“The desirability of increased marijuana tourism inflows will be questioned, no doubt, but they would generate additional fiscal revenues for government on their other tourist spending,” Shenfeld writes.

The report uses Colorado sales figures to estimate a Canadian pot market worth about $10 billion annually, then looks at net profit margins from Ontario’s government booze monopoly and other associated income and payroll taxes to come up with the revenue total.

Shenfeld also suggests that the oft-touted law enforcement savings from pot legalization may not materialize due to ongoing international obligations to stop marijuana exports and the enforcement needed to curb the untaxed black market.

“Deficits won’t simply go up in smoke as a result,” he concludes.

Airlines allow flight changes over Zika fears ROSS MAROWITS THE CANADIAN PRESS

MONTREAL — Three of Canada’s largest airlines are allowing passengers to change bookings to destinations in Central and South America as well as parts of the Caribbean amid concern over the Zika virus.

The move by the Canadian carriers comes after several global airlines, including United Airlines and American Airlines in the U.S.,

announced they were offering refunds to passengers concerned about the virus, believed capable of causing serious birth defects.

The Public Health Agency of Canada has warned pregnant women to take precautions against mosquito bites when travelling to areas in Central and South America where there have been Zika outbreaks.

WestJet says any passenger can change or cancel a booking prior to travelling to infected areas. No

medical notes are required.

Air Transat says pregnant passengers with a medical note and companions in their immediate family can reschedule or change destinations if they were booked to fly to countries that have been listed by the Pan American Health Organization as having the virus.

Education ministry lost info on 3.4M students THE CANADIAN PRESS

VICTORIA — British Columbia’s Education Ministry lost personal information pertaining to 3.4 million students when staff breached security policies and misplaced a hard drive with data stretching back 30 years, an investigation has revealed.

Privacy commissioner Elizabeth Denham said in a report released Thursday that the ministry did not secure a portable hard drive when the information was transferred from computer servers in an effort to save on storage costs.

A series of actions put the information at risk, assistant commissioner Jay Fedorak said.

“The policies were good and it appeared that the employees were aware of the policies,” he said in an interview. “They just didn’t follow them. Policy is important, but policy alone isn’t enough,” Fedorak said. “It’s important that there be adequate and effective training of staff and some compliance auditing or follow-up.”

The lost information collected between 1986 and 2009 was associated with B.C. and Yukon students.

It included names, addresses, dates of birth, gender, grades, schools, personal education numbers, graduation status, financial aid data and designations such as ESL or special needs.

A smaller number of records included more sensitive information, such as teacher retirement plans, education outcomes for student cancer survivors, health and behaviour issues and children in care.

The ministry discovered the drive missing last August, when a team of up to 50 bureaucrats began searching, to no avail. The Office of the

Information and Privacy Commission was notified in September.

“They satisfied us they had looked in every box, in every desk, in every drawer, and they weren’t able to find it,” Fedorak said.

Investigators said the device could have been missing for as long as five years. After moving information off the server, staff failed to encrypt the device. Then they transferred it to a warehouse that wasn’t equipped to secure information or keep track of devices for retrieval.

Denham made nine recommendations to strengthen the security

of personal information, including encrypting all mobile data storage devices and maintaining accurate inventories of personal information.

“If this was actually a situation involving a cash loss of $3.4 million, I believe the government would take rapid, dramatic and decisive action to deal with the situation,” she said in her report.

Education Minister Mike Bernier acknowledged the privacy breach as “unacceptable” and described the commissioner’s assessment and recommendations as “fair and balanced.”

U.S. PRESIDENTIAL RACE

Donald Trump exits GOP debate Other candidates look to absence for edge JULIE PACE AND JILL COLVIN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DES MOINES, Iowa — Donald Trump won’t be onstage when Republican presidential candidates make their final appeals to Iowa voters in Thursday night’s debate, and that gives the rest of the field a rare opportunity to frame the election in their own terms, at least for one night.

Trump is boycotting the debate in a dispute with host Fox News. Instead, he is holding a competing rally a few miles away that is likely to draw significant attention — as well as the participation of some lower-polling candidates hoping to draft off the front-runner’s success.

Even with Trump’s shadow hanging over the debate, his closest competitors are eager for an opportunity to break through in his absence. They also hope his boycott will be viewed negatively by voters in Iowa, which kicks off voting in the 2016 presidential race next Monday.

“I think it’ll hurt him that he’s not showing up in the Iowa debate four days before the Iowa caucuses,” former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush told CNN. Florida Sen. Marco Rubio said Republicans “don’t have time for these kinds of distractions.”

Trump has led the Republican race nationally for months, to the surprise of many. In Iowa, however, polls suggest he’s locked in a tight race with Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, a favourite of the conservatives and evangelical Christians who hold significant sway in the state’s Republican caucuses.

Some campaigns were preparing for the possibility Trump could reverse course and take the stage in Des Moines after all. However, he moved forward with plans to host a rally a few miles away that his campaign said would raise money for wounded warriors.

On Thursday, he announced the

launch of a new website for collecting donations to veterans ahead of the event. The link, which he posted on Twitter, includes the seal of the Donald J. Trump Foundation, and a form for contributions.

Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum, Iowa caucus winners in the past who have struggled to gain traction in the 2016 campaign, planned to join Trump at the event after appearing in an earlier undercard debate. They were relegated to that secondary contest because of low poll numbers.

With Fox carrying the main debate, other cable channels were likely to show Trump’s event, stealing away at least some viewers who would have otherwise watched the contest.

“I think it’s typical Trump,” said Don Kass, chairman of Iowa’s Plymouth County GOP. “He’s betting on him making a bigger splash.”

While earlier debates have been instrumental in the rise and fall of several GOP candidates, they have had minimal apparent impact on Trump’s standing.

He’s preferred to make his case to potential voters in national television interviews and on Twitter, and has sometimes played a less forceful role in the debates.

Trump’s absence was likely to turn attention to Cruz, a firebrand conservative disdained by many in his party, and Rubio, who is hoping a third-place finish in Iowa could help him establish him as the choice of more traditional Republicans.

Others on the debate stage will have their eyes on New Hampshire, where they’re hoping a strong showing in the Feb. 9 primary will jumpstart their White House hopes. Bush, Ohio Gov. John Kasich and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie have all devoted the bulk of their campaign resources to New Hampshire.

IMMIGRATION

European nations soon to expel migrants EU officials have urged their member countries to quickly send back those who don’t qualify for asylum KARL RITTER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

STOCKHOLM — Dazzled by an unprecedented wave of migration, Sweden on Thursday put into words an uncomfortable reality for Europe: If the continent isn’t going to welcome more than 1 million people a year, it will have to deport large numbers of them to countries plagued by unrest and abject poverty.

Interior Minister Anders Ygeman said Sweden could send back 60,000-80,000 asylum seekers in the coming years. Even in a country with a long history of immigration, that would be a scale of expulsions unseen before.

“The first step is to ensure voluntary returns,” Ygeman told Swedish newspaper Dagens Industri. “But if we don’t succeed, we need to have returns by coercion.”

The coercive part is where it gets uncomfortable. Packing unwilling migrants, even entire families, onto chartered airplanes bound for the Balkans, the Middle East or Africa evokes images that clash with Europe’s humanitarian ideals.

The sharp rise of people seeking asylum last year almost certainly will also lead to much higher numbers of rejections and deportations.

European Union officials have urged member countries to quickly send back those who don’t qualify for asylum so that Europe’s welcome can be focused on those who do, such as people fleeing the war in Syria.

“People who do not have a right to stay in the European Union need to be returned home,” said Natasha Bertaud, a spokeswoman for the EU’s executiv commission.

“This is a matter of credibility that

we do return these people, because you don’t want to give the impression of course that Europe is an open door,” she said.

EU statistics show most of those rejected come from the Balkans including Albania and Kosovo, some of Europe’s poorest countries.

Many applicants running away from poverty in West Africa, Pakistan and Bangladesh also are turned away.

Even people from unstable countries like Iraq, Afghanistan and Somalia can’t count on getting asylum unless they can prove they, personally, face grave risks at home.

Frans Timmermans, the Commission’s vice-president, told Dutch TV station NOS this week that the majority of people seeking asylum in Europe are not refugees.

“More than half, 60 per cent, should have to return much more quickly. If we start with doing that, it would already make a huge difference,” he said.

Sending them back is easier said than done. In 2014, EU nations returned less than 40 per cent of the people who were ordered to be deported.

Sometimes those seeking asylum go into hiding after receiving a negative decision.

Sometimes their native country doesn’t want them back.

EU countries, including Sweden and Germany, have had some success sending people back to the Balkans on chartered flights. Of the 37,000 who returned from Germany on their own accord last year, all but about 5,000 were from the Balkans.

“It’s been more difficult with Iraq and Afghanistan,” said Mikael Ribbenvik, director of operations at the Swedish Migration Agency.

“The returns have worked during some periods, and not so well during others.”

Under UN rules, countries are supposed to offer protection to refugees fleeing war and persecution. But some European countries also offer protection to people deemed at risk of torture or the death penalty or who are suffering from an exceptionally serious disease.

“Obviously, there is currently a very heated debate in Europe on this issue,” said Stephane Dujarric, a spokesman for the UN secretary-general. “Our message continues to be the same — that refugees and migrants need to be treated with compassion, dignity and with full respect of their rights for those who are refugees.”

POLITICS Some fraud is organized and orchestrated by a group of individuals, namely, staged accidents and stolen vehicle rings.

Fraudulent claims take a toll on B.C. drivers

While most B.C. drivers are honest when it comes to making insurance claims, there are a few that are hurting things for the rest of us in the province.

Industry studies estimate that about 10 to 20 per cent of all insurance claims contain an element of fraud or exaggeration. Applying those estimates here means fraud is costing us up to $600 million per year, or more than $100 annually on every auto insurance policy.

Fraud cheats everyone and comes in all shapes and sizes.

To learn more about auto insurance fraud, go to icbc.com/fraud

Other types of fraud are less obvious.

Fraud like this includes exaggerating the extent of an injury, misrepresenting a previous medical condition or slanting the situation when reporting a claim. It’s not unheard of for people to embellish their claim by including vehicle damage unrelated to the crash, or to claim they can’t work when they’re actually back on the job. These tactics may not make the news, but the costs add up and come out of all of our pockets – we all end up paying for those who cheat the system.

ICBC combats fraud with their Special Investigation Unit, which last year looked at more than 5,000 claims wles. This includes a cyber unit that employs information publicly available on the internet and social media to investigate suspected fraudulent claims.

They’re in the process of increasing their focus on investigations, including training and analytics technology that yags patterns and predictors of fraud.

By stepping up efforts to reduce fraudulent and exaggerated claims, along with managing injury claims costs, ICBC is working to take pressure off rising insurance rates.

Fraud. It cheats us all.

Liberals resist Tory calls to detail pipeline plans BRUCE CHEADLE THE CANADIAN PRESS

OTTAWA — A half dozen Iroquois First Nations are calling the proposed Energy East pipeline a “dangerous project,” less than 24 hours after the federal government announced additional reviews to bolster public confidence in the pipeline assessment process — including more consultations with indigenous communities.

It was just another sign of the acrimonious debate ahead as the Liberal government attempts to find consensus on building “sustainable” oil pipelines to an ocean port in order to export landlocked crude oil.

That debate consumed the House of Commons on Thursday, as the Conservative opposition presented a motion effectively calling for a vote of confidence and support in TransCanada’s proposed $15.7-billion pipeline to carry Alberta and Saskatchewan bitumen to New Brunswick refineries and ports.

On Wednesday, Natural Resources Minister Jim Carr and Environment Minister Catherine McKenna announced that current project assessments, including Energy East and the Trans Mountain line in B.C., would have to be assessed on the upstream greenhouse gases emitted in the production of the oil they propose to carry. The Liberal government also said it would appoint a ministerial representative to

consult indigenous communities, while extending the time frame for a decision on each of the two major pipelines.

“We need to take into account the views and concerns of Canadians, respect the rights and interests of indigenous peoples and support our natural resources sector,” McKenna said in introducing the plan.

Enter the Iroquois Caucus.

The group, representing Ontario and western Quebec leaders from Akwesasne, Kahnawake, Kanesatake, Oneida Nation of the Thames, Six Nations of the Grand River, Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte and Wahta Mohawks, said Thursday they expect to be consulted by the Crown while expressing their unanimous opposition to Energy East.

“Notwithstanding the economic benefits, we have serious concerns with respect to the devastating effects this project can have on our lands and waters, our way of life and our cultures,” said the news release.

Former Tory cabinet minister Erin O’Toole said Trudeau needs to show leadership rather than acceding to the regional war of words between lower levels of government.

NDP critic Nathan Cullen, during the debate, said the Conservatives are pre-judging a project whose 27-month assessment by the National Energy Board hasn’t even begun.

Ask our

DENTURIST

need all my lower teeth extracted and my Q: Identurist is recommending that I get implants

– is this really necessary considering the additional expense?

It is essential you understand the difference between how your natural teeth and dentures function. Your natural teeth have a strong root system, which can withstand great force while biting, allowing you to chew your food very efficiently. A lower denture relies on Darren Hoffman the quality of your ridge and gravity to keep it in place and can withstand about ¼ the pressure of your natural dentition. Successfully eating with a lower denture without implants depends on your ability to eat in a new way, coordinating your tongue and cheek muscles to keep the denture in place, chewing your food differently than with natural teeth. Also, there is a natural tendency for the tongue to push down and dislodge the denture which can develop unintentionally into a habit. For individuals who are not able to adapt to lower dentures, implants can be a practical solution allowing your denture to snap securely into place, preventing it from dislodging and providing increased eating efficiency and confidence. Dental implants are more expensive, but investing in denture prosthetic is only worthwhile if you can actually function successfully with it. Taking the time to educate yourself on your options will help you make an informed decision.

John & Lynn There is nothing wrong with you; the Rogers Owners disease is in the mattress industry.

We hear this story many times a day and it’s always the same. There are 2 main problems.

You can’t flip today’s mattresses. In 2003 the industry started switching to no flips, what amazes me is they must know they don’t work.

The foams and combinations they use on the top are nowhere near the quality they would need to be to come even close to lasting anywhere near the term of the warranty.

On February 15, 2016, minimum downpayment rules are changing in Canada – for homes worth more than $500,000. The change is straightforward: for any portion of the house price over Sharon Fauchon & Krista Verhiel $500,000, buyers will need 10% downpayment for an Your Trusted Local insured mortgage. The minimum downpayment for the Mortgage Experts first $500,000 will remain unchanged at 5%.

How much difference could it make? Here’s a simple example: Right now, you could get a mortgage for a $750,000 home with a downpayment of $37,500: a simple 5% of $750,000. Once the new rules kick in next month, you’ll need $50,000 or a 6.7% downpayment for the same house: 5% for the first $500,000 ($25,000), plus 10% for the $250,000 over the limit (another $25,000), The change was announced in mid-December by the new Liberal Finance Minister, Bill Morneau. While most Canadian homebuyers will be unaffected, the move is designed to protect Canadian homeowners by ensuring a stronger equity footing in their homes.

If there’s a house purchase in your future, let’s talk. You will need a mortgage approval before February 15 to qualify under the 5% rule, and your purchase must also close before July 1, 2016.

Read what the Experts have to say on your day-to-day questions.

Both influenza and the common cold are viral respiratory infections that affect the mose, throat and lungs. Viruses are spread from person to person through airborne droplets that are sneezed out or coughed up by an infected person. In some cases, the viruses can be spread when a person touches an infected surface and then touches his or her nose, mouth or eyes. Influenza is commonly referred to as "the flu". From November to April David Duncan each year, 5%-15% of Canadians are stricken with influenza. B.SC. (Pharm) Although most people recover fully approx. 2,000 to 8,000 R.P.E.B.C. people die annually in Canada and are found mostly among Pharmacist/ high-risk populations, such as those with other chronic medical Manager conditions, weakened immune systems, seniors, or very young children. Of the 3 types of influenza viruses: A, B and C, type "A" influenza causes the most serious problems in humans. Symptoms usually include a high fever lasting 3-4 days, headache, aches and pains, fatigue and weakness, extreme exhaustion particularly at the start of the symptoms and chest discomfort and cough. There are over 200 different cold viruses, but most colds are caused by "rhinoviruses". In Canada the peak times for colds are at the start of school in the fall, mid-winter, and again in early spring. With a cold, fever and headache are uncommon, aches and pains are mild and extreme exhaustion seldom occurs. However, stuffy nose, sneezing, sore throat, mild chest discomfort and cough are common. Your best defense in protecting yourself from the influenza virus is to get a flu shot. Other measures to control the spread of both the influenza and cold virus are to wash your hands frequently, avoid crowds and control your coughs and sneezes.

COLUMN

So long to the playground of the newsroom Final publication of the ‘Daily News’ brings back memories of the ‘fun’ part of local news coverage SPORTS INSIDE Today’s issue Scott McKenzie Daily News

A

s I’m sure you’re aware, this if the final local sports column you’ll ever read in the Nanaimo Daily News.

And you can imagine I’ve got mixed feelings about writing it.

For one, this is a terrible, terrible closure not only for the amazing people in this office now and before, but for the local sports community and the industry as a whole.

But it’s always been an honour to be able to run this space, with nearly complete autonomy and I thank managing editor Philip Wolf for giving me that trust and that opportunity.

Because if the Daily News is an institution, the sports section was its playground.

There were so many great people in my chair before me — Philip, Josh Aldrich, Scott Brown, and of course

Rhodesie — and it was a chair that I had my eye on as soon as I took a reporter job in Port Alberni in 2012.

It’s oddly ironic that, one year ago yesterday I was named the top sports columnist in B.C. outside of Vancouver, and today I no longer have the opportunity to write sports for a daily newspaper.

But it’s the way the industry is going — the majority of the country no longer values local news, as readers simply don’t want to pay for it like they used to, they’ve voted with their wallets.

But I’m not going to act like it

wasn’t fun while it lasted.

Although I was always kept honest by night editor Paul Walton and his incessant jesting that all sports are rigged.

(This week’s Australian Open tennis investigations may give his argument validation).

As a sports writer, photographer and editor, there are few better places to work in community journalism in Canada than in Nanaimo.

In the year and a half I was lucky enough to work here, there was the long playoff run the Nanaimo Clippers went on in the spring, where I felt just as tired covering it than the players were playing in it. And of course, covering (most) of Sheldon Rempal’s final season — the best season of any player Nanaimo has seen in at least a decade.

The back-to-back championship run of the John Barsby Bulldogs high school football team.

The dominance of Vancouver Island University’s athletic department.

Watching one of the country’s top young pitchers, Josh Burgmann, throw at Serauxmen Stadium.

Those, and of course plenty more, are some of the memories I’ll keep

Thank you

forever from my time here.

But it’s also a shame that I won’t be covering what comes next.

With the talent the Clippers have assembled this season, they’ve got the ability to go all the way and win their first Fred Page Cup since 2007.

The Vancouver Island Raiders, too, bring back their entire coaching staff and nearly all their offensive weapons and defensive stalwarts, enough to return to their elite status in the B.C. Football Conference and the Canadian Junior Football League.

Rookie safety Cole Virtanen is a special talent and one all football fans in Nanaimo should go see play in person.

The men’s basketball team at Vancouver Island University, after playing in the national final last year, is ranked No. 1 in the country and looks poised to bring home another national title.

Will a new multiplex be built downtown, and will a Western Hockey League team follow?

This city deserves a WHL team and Vancouver Island University’s athletic department deserves to compete in Tier 1 athletics through Canadian Interuniversity Sport, with a new

building — and each project is at least in the planning stage.

It’s a growing community that’s sports scene just needs a little bit of life injected into it to start selling out events like the days when people still paid for journalism (too soon?).

Regardless of what happens, I wish I would be there to cover it.

And that’s why this is a sad day.

For someone growing up filling his time between playing sports by watching them, it was the perfect job to stay connected to them after any and all athletic abilities were no longer available. I was able to tell the stories of local athletes, coaches and managers, while still being able to pick the national and international content I always believed readers would appreciate.

I appreciated your comments, I heard your complaints. I just hope you enjoyed the ride as much as I did. » Scott McKenzie is the sports editor at the Nanaimo Daily News and the 2015 recipient of the Paul Carson Broadcast & Media Award for best sports columnist in B.C. outside of Vancouver.

Djokovic, Williams reach Australia finals DENNIS PASSA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Athlete of the Week Megan Rosenlund Sport: Volleyball Achievements: Vancouver Island University Mariners women’s volleyball power Megan Rosenlund was named as the Pacific Western Athletic Association’s female athlete of the week this week after guiding her team to a win last Friday over the Capilano Blues where she contributed 18 kills. At 14-4, the Mariners lead the PacWest.

MELBOURNE, Australia — Novak Djokovic called it the best he has ever played against old foe Roger Federer.

Serena Williams was just being her dominant self.

The defending champions both made their way back to the Australian Open final, with Djokovic beating Federer 6-1, 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 and Williams defeating Agnieszka Radwanska 6-0, 6-4 on Thursday.

“I’ve had matches where I’ve played similar tennis,” said Djokovic, the topranked player in the world. “But I think against Roger, these first two sets have been probably the best two sets I’ve played against him overall throughout my career.”

Hours earlier at Rod Laver Arena, Williams advanced to within one win of another Grand Slam milestone. If the six-time Australian Open champion wins Saturday’s final against seventh-seeded Angelique Kerber, she will equal Steffi Graf’s 22 major singles titles, a record in the Open era and the second-most in history behind Margaret Court’s 24.

“I was able to do everything that I needed to do,” Williams said of Thursday’s match. “I was really hitting just all the right shots, making little to no errors, which is kind of hard to play like that.”

Djokovic, a five-time champion at the Australian Open, advanced to his sixth final at Melbourne Park. He’ll find out who his final opponent will be after Andy Murray takes on Milos Raonic on Friday.

For Federer, the signs were ominous from the beginning. Djokovic held his first service game at love and broke the 17-time Grand Slam champion in the second. After seven minutes, Federer was trailing 3-0.

The first set was over in 22 minutes.

Most spectators — including a woman with a sign reading: “Just Married But Willing to Exchange for Federer” —

WILLIAMS

were behind him, applauding Djokovic’s service faults and giving Federer a standing ovation when he broke to go ahead 4-2 in the third set.

The end came quickly in the fourth.

Djokovic broke Federer in the eighth game to go up 5-3 — not even a stunning down-the-line shot after he earlier chased down a lob on the same point could save the Swiss great.

Djokovic held three match points in the next game and he clinched it when Federer netted a backhand. Djokovic, who won three Grand Slam titles last year, took a 23-22 edge in his 45 meetings with Federer.

“Definitely I’ve played unbelievable the first two sets but that’s what is necessary against Roger,” Djokovic said.

Asked about the crowd support for Federer, Djokovic displayed Swiss-like diplomacy.

“When I play Roger it’s something that is expected, in a way, considering his career and his greatness on and off the court,” Djokovic said. “He’s loved. He’s appreciated. He’s respected around the world. For me it’s normal in a way.”

Federer said he wasn’t surprised by Djokovic’s early blitz.

“I’ve seen Novak play this well before,” he said.

“It’s tough when it’s from the start because obviously you got to try to stop the bleeding at some point. He can get one or two sets all of a sudden . . . and it’s tough to get back into it.”

HAMILTON — John Chick can’t wait to show off his soft hands with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.

Chick met with reporters at Tim Hortons Field on Thursday, a day after agreeing to a two-year deal with Hamilton and two weeks all-star defensive end was surprisingly released by the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

In Chick, Hamilton gets a premiere pass rusher who had 11 sacks last year after registering a league-high 15 sacks in 2014.

But defensive co-ordinator Orlondo Steinauer also likes to sometimes drop defensive linemen into pass coverage, a challenge the six-foot-four, 250-pound Chick readily welcomes.

“I believe there’s a number of different sides to the defensive side of the ball that I bring,” he said.

“I still believe I am going this way (up) I wouldn’t still be playing if I didn’t believe that.

“I’ve got some good hands. I’d love to catch one and run it into the end zone.”

Chick, 33, a two-time Grey Cup champion with Saskatchewan, is excited to be reunited with Hamilton coach/GM Kent Austin. Chick joined the Riders in ’07 under first-year head coach Austin and the squad went on to capture the CFL championship that year.

Chick spent six seasons with Saskatchewan and in 2009 was the CFL’s top player.

He was also a league all-star in 2014 and a fan favourite in Regina for his tenacious play on the field and the many hours he spent in the community.

Chick also played 19 career NFL games with the Jacksonville Jaguars (2011-12) and also spent time with the Indianapolis Colts in 2010.

All-Star Scott takes shot at NHL

My knowledge and talents

make a difference in people’s homes.

LARRY LAGE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NASHVILLE — John Scott, the career journeyman enforcer who was surprisingly voted into the NHL All-Star game by fans, said he got a call from someone at the league who tried to talk him out of playing in the showcase event this Sunday.

According to Scott, someone with the NHL asked him: “Do you think this is something your kids would be proud of?”

Scott described the incident in a first-person account posted Thursday by The Players Tribune. The 6-foot-8, 260-pound Scott said that moment strengthened his resolve to play in the 3-on-3 format with some of the best hockey players in the world.

“Because, while I may not deserve to be an NHL All-Star, I know I deserve to be the judge of what my kids will — and won’t — be proud of me for,” wrote the 33-year-old Scott, who has two daughters.

Messages seeking comment on Scott’s assertions were left with NHL officials.

The essay from Scott is the latest twist in an odd story that has put the league in an awkward situation. Like other professional leagues, the NHL uses its All-Star game to showcase its top players and Scott, by his own admission, is not among that group.

The sparingly used player has scored just five goals since his NHL debut in 2009. He played for the Arizona Coyotes when he was named an All-Star, but was later stunned by a trade to Montreal, which sent him for its AHL affiliate in Newfoundland.

Scott wrote that he wasn’t in “a real hockey fight,” until he was 23. He embraced dropping his gloves during his third year in the AHL after finding out he was good at fighting, it fired up his teammates and extended his career.

“I stuck around,” Scott wrote. “My wife and I had to move all across the country, year after year. But I stayed in the NHL, by any means necessary. It is not easy.”

Scott has played for Minnesota, Chicago, the New York Rangers, Buffalo, San Jose

and Arizona. He played in a career-high 56 games with the Sabres two years ago, and scored a career-high three goals last season with the Sharks. Scott hasn’t averaged double digits in ice time during an NHL season.

At first, Scott wrote, he accepted the league’s position that he didn’t belong in the All-Star game.

“They didn’t mince words — This is not a game for you, John — but I understood all the same,” Scott wrote. “Honestly, on some level, I agreed. In the beginning, at least, I just wanted the entire thing to go away.”

“So when they asked me to make a statement — nudging the fan vote in another direction and denouncing the John Scott ’movement’ — I did it without hesitation,” he added. “I told the fans, ’Listen. I don’t deserve this. Vote for my teammates.’ And I was telling the truth. But while I don’t deserve to be an All-Star, I also don’t think I deserve to be treated like I’ve been by the league throughout this saga.

FOOTBALL

Smithâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hiring finally gives NFL good female news Hired as an assistant coach by the Buffalo Bills, 30-year-old Kathryn Smith is the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first female coach wilderness. The worst of the lot was Cleveland radio guy Kevin Kiley, who said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is absurd. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure if Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m running 100 miles an hour under a kickoff and miss a tackle, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to want to hear from Kathryn how I could have done it better.â&#x20AC;?

Kiley extended his no-women argument to include the Pro Football Hall of Fame voters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do you really want whether you make the Hall of Fame to be determined by a woman, someone who never played the game?â&#x20AC;? Kiley asked.

Sigh. The old you-never-played-thegame argument.

Yep, football is real rocket science.

Kileyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s point is ludicrous, and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say that just because my colleague, Charean Williams is a voter.

When next weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vote comes, I would argue that Charean may be the most dedicated and knowledgeable voter in the room.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re either qualified for the job or youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not. Kathryn Smith, as Rex Ryan affirmed, is as qualified as Becky Hammon and Nancy Lieberman are for their NBA assistant coach jobs.

The locker room? While an NFL locker room may well be the most sexist, homophobic lodge in sports, teams have come a long ways since making female journalists wait in the hallways. By all accounts, Barbieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s included, Smith, who started working with the New York Jets eight years ago, is ready for her new job.

And the footnote that properly goes with it.

GIL LEBRETON FORT WORTH STAR-TELEGRAM

A

woman made NFL news last week, and she didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to get flung onto a gun-filled sofa or knocked out in an elevator to do it.

In the NFL, progress moves in small steps.

Applause is in order for Rex Ryan and the Buffalo Bills, who promoted Kathryn Smith, 30, to a full-time coaching position. Smith will assist with quality control of the Billsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; specialty teams.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an entry level job, of sorts.

Smith likely will watch and break down video of practice and the Buffalo opponents.

She follows in the footsteps of Jen Welter, who interned as an assistant last summer during the Arizona Cardinalsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; training camp.

Smith, though, will star in the footnote â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the NFLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first full-time, female assistant coach.

It was empowering enough news that that legend in pink, Barbie herself, took to Twitter (@Barbie) to congratulate Kathryn: â&#x20AC;&#x153;You are an #inspiration. #youcanbeanything,â&#x20AC;? Ms. Barbie hash-tagged.

No big deal? Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to be kidding. This is a league whose historical idea of female participation was the spray-tanned, hot-pantsed Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders. Its symbol of gender-progressive thinking was Phyllis George.

You only have to go back 12 months to Commissioner Roger

Goodellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Super Bowl press conference to find the NFL drawing its man-line into the sand.

Goodell was asked by respected CNN journalist Rachel Nichols about the perceived conflict of interest that arose when the commissioner mishandled the Ray Rice case. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t agree with you on a lot of

the assumptions you make in your question,â&#x20AC;? Goodell shot back. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think we have done an excellent job of bringing outside consultants in. Somebody has to pay them, Rachel. Unless youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re volunteering, which I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think you are, we will do that.â&#x20AC;?

Would Goodell, who makes

$44 million a year, have been as snippy to a male journalist? I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think so.

But the NFL gets to share the credit on the Kathryn Smith hiring. It was Ryanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hire, but the NFL had to have approved.

Predictably, there were Neanderthal voices heard barking in the

SUPER BOWL

Broncos used to playing in tight games ARNIE STAPLETON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; As confetti cannons showered the Denver Broncos with a blizzard of orange and blue, Methodist minister Don Bird of Aurora, Colorado, expressed the feelings of so many sweat-drenched, fingernail-nibbling fans. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am convinced that Broncos fans are the most well-conditioned fans in the NFL,â&#x20AC;? Bird wrote on Facebook after Peyton Manning bested Tom Brady in the AFC championship. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our hearts got a workout with every game but one this season. Who needs the gym?â&#x20AC;?

The Broncos (14-4) are heading to Super Bowl 50 on the strength of a dizzying defence and opportunistic offence that led Denver to an NFL-record 11 wins by seven points or less, including Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 20-18 classic against the New England Patriots. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We never waiver on our faith,â&#x20AC;? linebacker Brandon Marshall said after Denver denied Bradyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2-point attempt to tie it with

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what we do. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re used to playing in games that come down to the wire.â&#x20AC;&#x153; Brandon Marshall, linebacker

12 seconds remaining. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We stay strong. We believe. Everybody plays hard. We play fast. We play physical. Four quarters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What blowout did we have this year? Maybe the Packers game, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s it. So, we are used to playing in close games. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what we do. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re used to playing in games that come down to the wire. And we prevail.â&#x20AC;?

The Broncosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; only breather all season came when Green Bay brought a 6-0 record to Denver in November and left with a 29-10 defeat, the worst outing of Aaron Rodgersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; brilliant career.

Denver is 11-3 in games decided by seven points or less, and a 12-point win at Detroit was close until David Bruton Jr.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interception led to a last-minute TD.

The Broncosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; best hope to bring home another Lombardi Trophy to go with the two GM John Elway won during his Hall of Fame playing career might very well be to keep it close against Carolina in Super Bowl 50. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That kind of has become a theme for us,â&#x20AC;? coach Gary Kubiak said after Denverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 23-17 win over Pittsburgh in the divisional round, â&#x20AC;&#x153;to grind and work and just keep ourselves in position to be successful.â&#x20AC;?

The Broncos just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get tight when the games get that way.

Denverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wins have come by an average of just 6.92 points.

Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s average margin of victory is nearly twice that â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 13.41 points.

In the 2012 season, the Broncos rolled into the playoffs on an 11-game winning streak in which their average margin of victory was 16.45 points. They promptly lost in double-overtime to Baltimore 38-35 in what was their first close game in three months.

They piled up a record

606 points in 2013 and got shellacked by Seattle in the Super Bowl.

Elway would rather bring the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s No. 1 defence to the Super Bowl like heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doing this year than the NFLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s No. 1 offence like he did two years ago.

After that last landslide, Elway signed free agents DeMarcus Ware, T.J. Ward and Aqib Talib.

The last two drafts, he also selected defenders who slipped down the board in first-round picks Bradley Roby and Shane Ray. He replaced John Fox with Kubiak, who brought more balance to the offence with a greater emphasis on the ground game as Manningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s passing skills began to diminish at age 39.

The Broncos benefited from the offensive balance, defensive dominance and abundance of tight games. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it helps playing a lot of close games during the course of the season, starting with the very first one against Baltimore,â&#x20AC;?

Manning said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was a dog fight, grinder and went down to the last drive.â&#x20AC;?

DOPING

American athletes urge expansion of Russian probe EDDIE PELLS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

U.S. Olympic athletes have sent a letter to leaders of the International Olympic Committee and World Anti-Doping Agency urging them to expand the investigation into Russian doping to sports beyond track and field.

The letter came in response to the two-part report detailing doping inside Russiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s track team, the sportâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s international governing body and

allegations the government participated in the fraud.

The letter, sent to IOC president Thomas Bach and WADA president Craig Reedie and obtained by The Associated Press, said that while other sports federations might do their own inquiries, WADA and the IOC should take the lead to make sure all Russian sports are investigated. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With evidence of state-supported doping across the whole of sport in

Russia, with a corrupt and ineffective . . . testing system, and with athletes and insiders coming forward at great personal risk, now is exactly the time to investigate thoroughly,â&#x20AC;? the letter said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The clean sport movement is at a crossroads. The athletes of the world are watching and waiting.â&#x20AC;?

The letter was signed by Sarah Konrad, an Olympic biathlete and cross-country skier who is chair of the U.S. Olympic Committee advisory council. The council, which repre-

sents 57 Olympics sports, ratified the letter last weekend.

WADA and the IOC did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

In his reports, Dick Pound, who led the WADA independent commission into the Russian doping, made mention of violations that could spread into sports outside track. But he made no recommendations because he was tasked to specifically look at athletics.

Since his report, WADA has placed Russiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s anti-doping agency under suspension and trackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s governing body, the IAAF, is undergoing topto-bottom changes in its governance and anti-doping program.

But since the first report was released, there has been a steady stream of requests for the inquiry to be expanded beyond track.

One vocal proponent was Beckie Scott, the Canadian Olympian who is on WADAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s foundation board.

HOROSCOPE

by Jacqueline Bigar ARIES (March 21-April 19) What begins as a calm day could end in a misunderstanding and/or a power play. Slow down. A conversation with someone in the know will enlighten you about your options.

You might act in the most unanticipated way and get shocked reactions. Tonight: TGIF with friends.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Reach out to a loved one who generally is the source of excellent feedback and powerful insight. A one-on-one conversation will reveal the next step to take. Someone at a distance could be stubborn and recalcitrant.

You know what’s best for you.

Tonight: Celebrate the weekend.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You see what others refuse to see. In a discussion with a friend, you might decide to buck someone else’s plan.

Think twice before you act on this rebellious idea. You won’t be able to back out of a power play should you change your mind. Tonight: Follow a friend’s lead.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Sometimes your instincts are very good. Take the day off or work from home, if possible. The unexpected could occur when you least expect it. Staying unavailable and out of sight will prove to be very helpful.

Tonight: Let a party happen close to home or at your home.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Have a long-overdue conversation. You know how to say the truth without hurting somebody’s feelings. This person will be very appreciative to have your feedback. Don’t be so

demanding about your schedule or about matters involving daily patterns. Tonight: Be impulsive.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Curb a possessive streak. Yes, you would like to have what someone else has.

But you also need to look at what life already offers you. Be willing to make strong choices about your personal life. Tonight: Clear up a misunderstanding before it becomes a full-fledged outburst.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You’ll want to move forward with a project. You have a lot to share and discuss. Once you get feedback from a trusted friend, you might want to rethink your direction. A family member could become controlling if you don’t do what he or she wants. Tonight: In the moment.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) If you can, continue to maintain a low profile. You could have important information that needs to be kept hush-hush, but you might not be able to be sufficiently discreet at the present moment. A conversation about finances will be very uncomfortable. Tonight: Do your thing.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You have a serious tone this year, which often helps you to stay out of trouble. A fellow fire sign might try to convince you to join in on a fun adventure. This person is so wild that you might regret teaming up with him or her. Use good sense.

Tonight: TGIF at a favorite place!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) At present, you have a charming way of saying “no.” Feel free to do just that if you feel as if someone does not serve your best interests. There is a strong likelihood that you could

stumble into a very wild scenario if you’re not careful. Be the wise Goat.

Tonight: Out on the town.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Be willing to look past the obvious.

Take in the big picture. You might decide that you have made a faulty judgment. Be willing to say so, and others will respond well. You could be dealing with an emotional wound that you’re choosing not to share. Tonight: Do the unexpected.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) A loved one will make a gesture that is difficult to ignore. As a result, you might need to change your schedule and disappoint a friend.

Remember that how you handle this situation is your call, and you can’t blame someone else for your choices. Tonight: Order in.

YOUR BIRTHDAY (Jan. 29) This year encourage yourself to be nonreactive and to look at the big picture first. When you come from a place of detachment, the results will be much better. A friend can be a source of good advice. If you are single, you often find that the person you’re attracted to seems to be emotionally unavailable.

Get to know someone very well before you decide to relate to him or her on an intimate level. If you are attached, treat your sweetie like your best friend. Plan on many getaways together, far away from the demands of your daily life. LIBRA can be difficult.

BURNS, Ore. — The armed takeover of an Oregon wildlife refuge dwindled Thursday to just four holdouts demanding assurances they will not be arrested by the FBI if they surrender.

The FBI had no immediate comment on the negotiations or the holdouts’ demands, saying only that it was trying to “empty the refuge of the armed occupiers in the safest way possible.”

“We’re still stuck here, four of us.

They’re telling us it’s safe to leave, but it’s not safe,” a spokesman believed to be occupier David Fry said in a video posted on YouTube nearly four weeks into the standoff in the frozen high desert.

The occupation by ranchers and others began on Jan. 2, and at one point there were a couple of dozen people holed up, demanding that the federal government turn public lands over to local control. But the compound has been emptying out since the arrest of their leader, Ammon Bundy, and 10 others over the past few days.

With the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge surrounded by the FBI, the occupiers have been posting videos on YouTube showing them around a campfire, along with pickup trucks, an American flag, guns, an old car and assorted clutter.

“We want to live. We want to go home peacefully,” one of the men, who was not identified, said in a video posted on Thursday. He was also shown dancing outdoors to a country-western tune with a woman identified as his wife.

Oregon Public Broadcasting spoke with the holdouts and identified them as Fry, who is from Ohio, husband and wife Sean and Sandy Anderson of Idaho, and Jeff Banta of Nevada. Fry told the station that Sean Anderson faces a federal arrest warrant.

In one of the videos posted Thursday, the speaker — believed to be Fry — said: “We’re asking, just drop the charges and we’re willing to go. But if they’re not willing to do that, we’re all just willing to stay here and see what happens.”

Bundy and seven other main figures in the takeover were arrested earlier in the week, most of them in a traffic stop Tuesday night that erupted in gunfire and left one follower dead.

On Wednesday, three more followers surrendered after Bundy pleaded in a statement from jail: “Please stand down. Go home and hug your families.”

All 11 people under arrest have been charged with a felony count of conspiring to impede federal officers from carrying out their duties through force or intimidation.

Meanwhile, Bundy followers gave conflicting accounts of how Robert Finicum, a spokesman for the group, died in the clash on a remote highway during an operation led by the FBI. One said Finicum charged at officers, who then shot him. A member of the Bundy family said Finicum did nothing to provoke the officers.

Finicum’s daughter called him a martyr. “He loved freedom obviously more than his life,” Challice Finch told Dallas-Fort Worth TV station KXAS. The FBI has refused to release details of the confrontation.

In a statement issued through his lawyer, Bundy said FBI agents told him the shooting was recorded on video.

He said he is waiting to review the footage because “questions must be answered.”

Bundy also reiterated his appeal to the last holdouts to give up: “Turn yourselves in and do not use physical force.”

Bundy is the son of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, who was involved in a tense 2014 standoff with the government over grazing rights.

CHRIS PINE STARS IN ‘THE FINEST HOURS’

Chris Pine, in the upcoming film ‘The Finest Hours,’ at The London hotel in West Hollywood, Calif., earlier this month. Pine, 35, has established himself as one of the most recognizable stars of his generation.

‘The Finest Hours,’ is out today and plays in Nanaimo at the Avalon Cinemas. [INVISION/AP]

‘Just regular old nepotism’ led to acting LINDSEY BAHR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Looking at Chris Pine’s career, it’s hard to imagine that he hadn’t always harboured a lifelong passion to be an actor.

In a little over a decade since his first big screen role (the sequel to The Princess Diaries), Pine, 35, has established himself as one of the most recognizable stars of his generation.

He’s got his third Star Trek movie coming this summer, followed by Wonder Woman in 2017.

His latest, The Finest Hours, is out Friday.

Stardom of this kind doesn’t come accidentally to anyone, but to talk to Pine is to realize that he truly thinks of it as a lark.

“I don’t even feel like I picked it,” Pine said in a recent interview. “I just started doing plays in college. And then I went to LA. Then I got an agent. It just sort of rolled like a very slow snowball into what I’m doing now. It’s very weird.”

Pine did come from acting stock, however.

His father, Robert Pine, is a journeyman working actor best known for CHiPs (Sgt. Getraer).

His mother, Gwynne Gilford, was also an actress, as was his grandmother, Anne Gwynne.

Growing up in Los Angeles meant he was even closer to the business. He did production assistant work on Ryan Murphy’s show,

‘If you’re human and alive, I think we’ve all felt that intensely at one point or another.’

Popular, and then on a Roger Corman television show that his father was working on.

“Just regular old nepotism,” Pine said.

That’s not to say he’s not deeply serious about his profession, accidental or not.

In The Finest Hours, Pine plays a real life hero who led an impossible Coast Guard mission in 1952 to rescue three dozen men stranded on a wrecked oil tanker that a terrible

Nor’easter had torn in half. And it’s a bit of a departure for Pine.

Sure, it’s a nail-biting adventure, but Pine’s character, the late Bernie Webber, doesn’t exactly have the confidence of, say, Captain Kirk or some of the other cocksure extroverts he’s played in the past.

“Bernie struck me as someone who experienced great insecurity, anxiety, about his own ability and asked himself many times: am I good enough?” Pine said. “If you’re human and alive, I think we’ve all felt that intensely at one point or another.”

To prepare, he listened to audio recordings of Webber to nail his thick New England accent.

He studied his memoir and went out with the Coast Guard in Los Angeles to try to get a sense of their lives.

On set, too, director Craig Gillespie said Pine helped set the tone for the difficult shoot by being on time, prepared, and ready to bear anything — even being cold, wet and miserable for three months — with a sense of humour.

“He can be such a chameleon. He has great comedic timing, and then he can be this leading hero with swagger and then he can do character stuff. Because he’s so handsome, sometimes that gets lost in the shuffle. But it really is amazing to see the nuances that he brings to his characters,” said Gillespie.

He’s excited about the Star Trek Beyond, even without J.J. Abrams at the helm, and is very over the Internet backlash over that first trailer.

“Seriously, who cares? This fan base . . . We’re going to (expletive) up. It’s like, of course we are. How are we going to please everybody?” said Pine. “It’s too bad that they didn’t like it, but I’m pretty sure we made a great film.”

Pine is also playing the male lead opposite Gal Gadot in Wonder Woman — one of the first modern era superhero films to focus on a woman, which he’ll be shooting until late Spring.

Director Patty Jenkins convinced Pine to join the project, but it didn’t take much persuading.

“It’s about time we have a strong female energy projected into the world,” Pine said.

While he might have more fame, he doesn’t consider himself the big success in his family.

“My father has had a SAG card since 1964,” Pine said.

“He was under contract at one of the last studios that had a contract system. He’s been a working actor for 50 years. He put two kids through private school. He put three people through college. And he’s never stopped working in voiceover, on stage, in film and television. THAT to me is success. That is far more difficult to do what he did than what I’ve done.”

Carol Burnett to be honoured

by SAG for lifetime achievement MIKE CIDONI LENNOX THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BURBANK, Calif. — Carol Burnett is so glad she’s had some six decades together with television viewers.

After all, it was on the small screen where Burnett arguably reached her artistic and popularity peaks, most notably with the variety series, The Carol Burnett Show (1967-78).

So, little wonder that Burnett was a bit surprised when, out of the gate, the conversation turned to another aspect of her screen career, to which the Screen Actors Guild will pay tribute with its top honour, for Life Achievement, at the SAG Awards on Saturday.

In addition to all that TV, Burnett also made an impressive number of feature films with some of the industry’s most highly regarded directors: Martin Ritt, Peter Bogdanovich, Robert Altman and John Huston among them.

By the early ’60s, Burnett was already a star of stage (a Tony nomination for

the 1959 musical Once Upon a Mattress) and TV (a 1962 Emmy for her work on the variety series The Gary Moore Show).

“I was very nervous (about) making movies,” Burnett said in a recent interview. “I always felt that I was small screen and movie stars were big screen.

And, also, I missed an audience and having that feedback.”

The lanky, stylish Burnett, 82, also keeps busy, with a recurring role on the CBS series Hawaii Five-0 (of which she’s a fan) and a road show in which Burnett does just as she did on the old series: She asks someone backstage to “bump up the lights” so she can see the audience and answer questions.

“To use my friend Julie Andrews’ term, I’m gobsmacked about it,” Burnett said. “I’m still in awe of the big screen, of the movie stars. ‘Oh my god, there’s Meryl Streep!’ ‘Oh my god, there’s so-and-so!’ I think I’m going to be very nervous. But I’m thrilled.”

Women, budding acts dominate rock Grammys

Springsteen adjusts to new realities with tour DAVID BAUDER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Annie’s Mailbox Dear Annie: My fiancé and I became engaged a year ago. He has many good qualities: He is really sweet most of the time, and he is a good provider. He takes me on nice trips and buys me lovely presents. He even rubs my feet and cooks for me.

However, there are three bad qualities that give me grief. Like all couples, we argue now and then.

But about once a week, we stay up all night arguing and can’t get to work the next day. He hangs out at the casino into the wee hours of the morning. Last week, he came home at 5:30 a.m. He says he does it just to make me angry.

have enough money to keep losing it at the casino? Drinking is a different addiction and can affect his health, as well as your safety. Staying out all night is a trust issue, and arguing all night is totally unproductive.

It is always a mistake to marry someone and expect him to change.

That rarely happens. Look into GamAnon (gam-anon.org) and Al-Anon (al-anon.org) for a better understanding of his behaviour. Before marrying him, be sure you have a full report on your joint finances.

We urge you to get premarital counselling. Your fiancé sounds like an oncoming train wreck.

Two weeks ago, he left on Sunday afternoon and didn’t return until Monday morning. Then he wonders why I don’t trust him.

The other problems are that he drinks heavily and he likes to gamble a lot. I’ve prayed that God will allow him to be the man I need and deserve. When we first started dating, I didn’t see any of these signs. I knew he frequented the casino, but it didn’t seem so bad.

Now he says he will work on coming home so late if I stop fussing.

I told him if it happens again, the relationship is over. But he refuses to stop gambling. Can he possibly change? Please help me. I love this man, but I must be insane to put up with this mess.

It’s a sea change from 2014, when nominees for best rock album included David Bowie, Black Sabbath, Queens of the Stone Age, Neil Young with Crazy Horse, Kings of Leon and winners Led Zeppelin.

Best rock song nominees that year included The Rolling Stones, Black Sabbath, Paul McCartney.

“I feel like women have always written incredible songs, but I feel like right now what’s so rad is we’re all taking back the conversation and supporting each other and holding each other up,” said Hayley Williams, the 27-year-old frontwoman of Paramore.

“We’re taking notice of each other earlier on in each other’s careers.”

This year, nominees for best rock performance include four women, or female-led acts, with King, Alabama Shakes, Florence + the Machine and Wolf Alice, whose lead vocalist is 23-year-old Ellie Rowsell. The fifth nominee is the Foo Fighters.

song order to tell a story, then never perform it that way. Before this tour, he’d only fully played The River live once before, in 2009.

“The accumulation of those 20 songs together is greater than the individual playing of each particular song on a given night,” Springsteen said. “You get a sense of time, you get a sense of where your head was, the issues you were thinking about, who you were at that moment.”

After snow forced postponement of his Sunday show in New York, Springsteen offered a free download of his Jan. 19 Chicago show for 48 hours — both a gift to fans and a sly introduction to the new technology. More than 100,000 copies were ordered.

The site also offers a handful of Springsteen shows from past tours.

Much to his regret now, Springsteen was never big on recording all of his performances. The only quality video they could find from his original concert tour in 1980-81, for inclusion in his recently released box set, was missing several songs.

“The show was always about this moment, it’s about you, it’s about tonight,” Springsteen told Phillips.

“This moment belongs to the people that are in the room, and that was my first and foremost concern. And anything that got in the way of that, I was against at the time.”

Fans now can order recordings of every single show of the tour at a 10 per cent discount.

NEW YORK — For years, men — and legacy acts — have dominated in the rock category at the Grammy Awards, leaving little room for female stars who rock as loud and hard as the guys and young bands hoping to breakthrough on the music scene.

But at this year’s Grammys, there is a shift with women and budding acts dominating in the rock field, thanks to the Brittany Howard-led Alabama Shakes and Florence Welch of Florence + the Machine — with four nominations each — to promising performers such as James Bay and Highly Suspect, both up for best rock album and rock song.

Elle King, the 26-year-old carefree, raspy-voiced newcomer, earned nominations for best rock song and rock performance for the platinum single “Ex’s and Oh’s,” which topped the Billboard rock and alternative charts last year.

“There’s been space for people to make different music that’s not so pop-driven . . . that’s why we went with alternative because I didn’t think I was another Katy Perry of this world,” King said. “But to be in the rock category at the Grammys, for me and my heart, it’s like, ’(Expletive) yes, that is so rad!’ That made me extremely happy.”

The Grammys, which are being held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Feb. 15, could bring the often-praised Howard, 27, and Welch, 29, their first gramophones after earning multiple nominations in the past.

MESFIN FEKADU THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK — Bruce Springsteen’s tour showcasing his 1980 album The River is more than an exercise in nostalgia. It’s a telling example of how veteran artists are adjusting to the new realities of the music business by super-serving their longtime fans.

The 66-year-old superstar is performing an album he made when he was 30 from start to finish, a two-hour exercise during the tour’s third stop in New York on Wednesday. A musician with a long-time aversion to regularly documenting his epic concerts now makes recordings of them available to all his fans, whether they were there or not.

After opening with an outtake from The River, Springsteen explained to fans that he wrote the songs at a time when he was looking for more adult connections, and wanted to make an album with the grandeur of his live shows.

“I wanted the record to contain fun, dancing, laughter, jokes, politics, sex, good comradeship, love, faith, family, lonely nights and, of course, tears,” he said. “I wanted to imagine and write about those things, and I figured if I wrote about them, I’d get one step closer to getting it in my own life.”

With that, he dropped the needle on 20 songs performed in the album’s original sequence. Springsteen being Springsteen, he added 10 of his classics at the end before finishing with the bar band favourite, “Shout.”

Performing albums in their entirety is a trend gaining steam with artists such as Steely Dan, Lucinda Williams, Van Morrison — even Springsteen himself in recent years. It’s a way to give fans a fresh experience without new songs, said Chris Phillips, editor of Backstreets, a website devoted to Springsteen’s music.

As Springsteen explained in a recent interview with Phillips, he’d spend years formatting an album’s

Brit star wants to be the next 007 JILL LAWLESS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LONDON — Dominic West would like to be the next James Bond. But he’s worried you think of him as a cad.

The British star of The Affair and The Wire nurtures a dream of playing 007, but in the meantime he’s relishing the chance to be a smooth-talking sexual schemer onstage in Les Liaisons Dangereuses.

The Josie Rourkedirected production at London’s Donmar Warehouse will be broadcast live in British and U.S. movie theatres Thursday, with repeat screenings around the world over the coming weeks.

“I certainly seem to take a lot of parts playing cads,” West said before a recent evening performance.

In Christopher Hampton’s drama of sexual intrigue among 18th-century French aristocrats, West plays Le Vicomte de Valmont, who conspires with former lover the Marquise de Merteuil (a compelling, calculating Janet McTeer) to seduce a virtuous woman and ruin a chaste teenager — just for the fun of it.

West, whose gently patrician accent is a reminder that he attended Eton College, Britain’s most elite private school, insists he’s “completely wholesome and nice” in real life. But there is a seductively wicked cast to his features, and his deep laugh, that fans find irresistible.

But while he says he’s “longing to play a nice hero,” he knows the devil gets all the good lines.

“They’re much more interesting parts, the cads. It’s very difficult to play a good man and make him interesting.

You’ve got to be Jimmy Stewart or Tom Hanks.

“It’s much easier and more fun to make bad men interesting.”

Hampton’s play has become a modern classic, and its source, Pierre Choderlos de Laclos’ 1782 novel, also remains uncannily timely after almost 250 years. West says that’s because the tale expertly dissects “male pride and the delusions of male pride, and sexual pride.”

Why Latex?

by John Rogers, President, John’s Bedroom Barn

As a consumer in today’s marketplace I strive to purchase products that are made as close to home as I can get, items that are cleaner and greener, always with an eye on value.

With over a quarter of a century in the sleep industry I’ve seen thousands of mattress fails and very few wins.

One of those wins is good quality, natural, pure, Talalay latex which I get from Latex International (LI) who in my opinion produces the best product.

the firmer surface underneath. Latex is two-dimensional: it supports you while reducing pressure. At John’s our latex mattresses have a 6” medium and/or firm base (and yes, we can build you a mattress that is firm on one side and medium on the other) with a 3” soft latex topper. This combination gives you the best of both worlds – supportive, and pressure relieving.

Here is a partial quote straight from LI on quality and purity: “Our Talalay Natural is the best latex being offered on today’s market.

Our Talalay all natural formulation is made from 100% natural latex from the rubber tree and the only other properties added is needed for the vulcanization process. No latex foam in the market is completely made of all natural ingredients. All latex rubber needs additional sulfur, zinc oxide, and vulcanizing agents to be made into a usable form. LI also uses a natural, mineral reinforcing agent to improve the strength and durability of the product. On a volume basis, this material is less than 10% of the latex foam make up. Latex used is all natural latex.

The product is washed after the vulcanization process to remove residual residues.”

Latex doesn’t sleep hot.

“Too hot” is the biggest complaint I hear about memory foam. Memory foam requires body heat to collapse the foam cell structure in order to conform to your body curves; this collapse prevents air flow and traps body heat.

This same process also creates a crater where you sleep, when you turn over the feeling is like rolling uphill leaving a hole behind. I’ve had many people tell me they wake up exhausted from this process. LI Latex is seven times more breathable than memory foam.

Talalay latex is healthier.

Our Talalay latex is harvested from rubber trees that create an inherently hypoallergenic, dust mite resistant, mold Talalay vs. Memory foam. and mildew resistant sleep environment that doesn’t offOf the top four mattress companies in the US, one spends gas like as memory foams can. more in annual advertising than the other 3 combined, and Latex lasts longer. this company only makes memory foam beds. This is why we see so much hype about memory foam. While memory I have a sample of latex that was in a client’s favorite chair foam seems to be good at relieving pressure, it actually for 50 years and is still in pretty good shape (better shape only works one dimension – you sink into it until you hit than me at 50?)! Latex from LI has been proven to last 20 times more than leading memory foam.

ABC looks at the man behind historyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest Ponzi scheme

By Jacqueline Spendlove TV Media

I

t looks like 2016 is the year of televised Bernie Madoff dramas. Well, that might be overstating things a little, but there are two star-spangled productions about Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest fraudster coming down the pipe, and ABC has beaten HBO in the race to air.

The networkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s four-hour miniseries, inspired by the book â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Madoff Chroniclesâ&#x20AC;? by Brian Ross of ABC News, examines the rise and fall of one of historyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most famed con artists and how his scamming and lies affected those close to him. Catch the two-night broadcast of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Madoffâ&#x20AC;? when it airs Wednesday and Thursday, Feb. 3 and 4, on ABC. Unless you slept through 2009, you probably have at least a rough idea as to who Bernie Madoff is. The former stockbroker, investment adviser and financier founded the Wall Street firm Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities in 1960 and served as its chairman for nearly 50 years, during which he carried out a Ponzi scheme that is widely considered to be the biggest financial fraud in U.S. history.

Madoff bilked thousands of highprofile clients â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the list includes director Steven Spielberg, celebrity couple Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick, baseball Hall of Fame pitcher Sandy Koufax and author and Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel â&#x20AC;&#x201D; out of an estimated $65 billion. On March 12, 2009, Madoff pleaded guilty to 11 federal felonies, including securities fraud, money laundering, perjury and making false filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s currently serving the maximum allowed prison sentence of 150 years.

ABCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s miniseries chronicles the life, rise and fall of Madoff, who started his company with a paltry $5,000 that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d saved working as a lifeguard and sprinkler installer. He would go on to be worth more than $126 million, owning four homes and a 55-foot yacht, before finally being brought down at the age of 71.

Starring in the miniseries is celebrated screen veteran Richard Dreyfuss, the semi-retired Oscar winner who made a name for himself in such films as â&#x20AC;&#x153;American Graffitiâ&#x20AC;? (1973), â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jawsâ&#x20AC;? (1975) and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Close Encounters

2

of the Third Kindâ&#x20AC;? (1977), and has since enjoyed an impressive and diverse career, appearing in more than 50 films, as well as on television and on stage.

The actor is well versed in Madoffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s story, and has his own thoughts about the man who lived in the same Queens neighbourhood where he himself grew up. In a Smithsonian interview, he discusses his belief that Madoff is a sociopath who wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t driven by evil intents but simply didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t consider his victims. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My dad once told me, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three types of people. Moral people know the difference between right and wrong and do right. Immoral people know right and wrong and choose to do wrong. Amoral people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know the difference,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Dreyfuss said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So maybe you can say Madoff is amoral.

In the same way people who robbed banks didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m taking money from the blacksmith.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; They just took the money. And [Madoff] was really good at it.â&#x20AC;?

Dreyfuss brings these musings and more to the role, portraying a much different kind of villain than we often see in fiction, but â&#x20AC;&#x153;Madoffâ&#x20AC;? isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just about the eponymous Bernie. The miniseries also looks at how his crimes affected those in his inner circle â&#x20AC;&#x201D; particularly his family, many of whom were heavily involved in the firm, and therefore rose and fell right alongside him.

In the role of Madoffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wife and director of Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, Ruth, is another Hollywood A-lister: Emmy winner Blythe Danner (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Meet the Parents,â&#x20AC;? 2000). The Madoff sons â&#x20AC;&#x201D; who turned their father in to the authorities â&#x20AC;&#x201D; are played by Danny Deferrari (â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Longest Week,â&#x20AC;?

2014) and Tom Lipinski (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Labor Day,â&#x20AC;?

2013). Not only did they suffer the shame and disgrace that was tacked on to the Madoff name, but both sonsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; lives were tragically cut short, one dying of lymphoma in 2014 and the other committing suicide two years to the day after his fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s arrest.

Peter Scolari (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Newhartâ&#x20AC;?) plays Madoffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brother, Peter, senior managing director and chief compliance officer at the firm. Peter allowed himself to get wrapped up in the scam, falsifying the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s accounts, and was sentenced to 10 years in prison.

Stars on screen

‘American Crime Story’ focuses on O.J. Simpson

By Andrew Warren TV Media If the show fits: The media branded it the trial of the century, but for convicted felon O.J. Simpson, the extra fame that it brought was probably no consolation.

Of course, the former NFL player was acquitted of the double murder charges brought against him, but, if anything, that “not guilty” verdict only made this 1995 trial even more of a media firestorm.

On Tuesday, Feb. 2, FX premieres “American Crime Story,” a new anthology series in which each season explores an infamous criminal from the country’s long history — and dives into the events that followed the crimes. The first season, subtitled “The People v. O.J. Simpson,” reenacts the murder trial of the sports legend.

FX’s other anthology series, “American Horror Story,” has been a huge ratings, awards and critical success, and that record means that some of Hollywood’s biggest stars have lined up for “American Crime Story.” Headlining the cast as Simpson himself is Academy Award winner Cuba Gooding Jr. (“Jerry Maguire,” 1996), while Sarah Paulson (“American Horror Story”) plays head prosecutor Marcia Clark.

Simpson’s defence team was legendary, and the actors playing those men live up to that description, too. Movie superstar and two-time Academy Award nominee John Travolta (“Pulp Fiction,” 1994) stars as Robert Shapiro, the head of the defence team, and he’s joined by David Schwimmer (“Friends”) as Robert Kardashian, Nathan Lane (“The Birdcage,” 1996) as F. Lee Bailey, Courtney B. Vance (“Law & Order: Criminal Intent”) as Johnnie Cochran and Evan Handler (“Californication”) as Alan Dershowitz.

While Simpson was declared innocent of the double murder, he was later convicted of unrelated crimes and is currently incarcerated in Nevada. “The People V. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story” premieres Tuesday, Feb. 2, on FX. How horrifying!: It was critically panned when it premiered all the way back in 1975, but that sure hasn’t held back “The Rocky Horror Picture Show.”

The musical, starring Tim Curry (“Char-

lie’s Angels,” 2000), Susan Sarandon (“Thelma & Louise,” 1991) and Barry Bostwick (“Spin City”), has become the very embodiment of a cult classic, with late-night showings full of costumed audiences continuing to this day.

It shouldn’t be any surprise, then, that a remake is in the works — although much like the original, the remake isn’t quite what you’d expect.

This new “Rocky Horror” will be broadcast on Fox this fall, skipping the box office entirely and transforming the classic into a two-hour television special.

In the original, Curry starred as the bizarre Dr. Frank-N-Furter, a self-described “sweet transvestite” and mad scientist who has discovered the secret to creating life itself. For the remake, “Orange Is the New Black’s” Laverne Cox has been cast as the enigmatic doctor. In what you might call a sign of how the world has changed since 1975: Cox is the first transgender person to earn an Emmy Award nomination in an acting category.

In the roles of Janet Weiss and Brad Majors, a newly engaged couple who stumble into Dr. Furter’s bizarre world, Victoria Justice (“Zoey 101”) and Ryan McCartan (“Liv and Maddie”) have taken up the baton, while hunky newcomer Staz Nair, who appeared in the U.K.’s version of “The X Factor” and has been cast in season 6 of “Game of Thrones,” is set to play the doctor’s greatest creation, Rocky.

With months to go until the fall premiere, there’s still plenty of time for “The Rocky Horror Picture Show’s” cast to fill out.

At it again: Is there any stopping Queen Latifah? At various times, she’s been a rapper, a songwriter, a comedian, a record producer, an actress and a talk show host. She has a Golden Globe award and a Grammy, has been nominated for three Emmys and even has an Academy Award nomination. Really, is there anything she can’t do?

Her talk show, “The Queen Latifah Show,” may have aired its last episode last year, but that doesn’t mean that the Queen has been idle. Her next project, an as-yet-untitled show that’s in the works at Fox, is already well underway.

Q&A

Late laughs

hollywood

By Adam Thomlison TV Media

Q: I recently watched the Hallmark movie “Karen Kingsbury’s The Bridge.” I liked the movie but was quite disappointed to find it was to be continued, and the second part won’t air until Christmas 2016. This is a first to have to wait a whole year for the second part of a movie!

A: There’s not much to say, other than that you are certainly not alone in being frustrated, but also that it isn’t really a first.

On the big screen, yearlong waits for movie sequels is the norm. The recent Hunger Games movies are a good example: they were also based on books and were released-one-a-year, around the same time each year.

“The Bridge” can be seen as part of a recent trend that “The Hunger Games” helped to popularize, where a single book is split into two movies.

The final two Hunger Games movies were based on a single book, so that while the book series has three instalments, there were four movies produced. This was a repeat of what was done with the Harry Potter series.

The most outrageous example of this is the recent film renditions of J.R.R. Tolkien’s “The Hobbit,” which turned a single book into three movies (they, too, were released a year apart during the Christmas season).

“The Bridge,” then, can just be seen as bringing this big-screen trend to TV. That doesn’t mean you have to like it, though. And many don’t. Angry viewers have taken to the Internet, inundating the Facebook pages of Hallmark and author Karen Kingsbury with complaints.

Q: Whatever happened to Richard Dean Anderson after “MacGyver”? I have not seen or heard anything about him in years. How old is he now and did he ever get married and have children? Also, was the man who played his grandfather, Harry, his real grandfather?

A: It’s actually hard to say exactly what’s happened to him, because Richard Dean Anderson is an incredibly private guy.

Anderson, who just turned 66, had one more big role after “MacGyver” — Jack O’Neill in the long-running scifi series “Stargate SG-1” (and, later,

24

Conan the less long-running “SGU Stargate Universe”).

Beyond that, he hasn’t been doing much acting. Having starred in a couple of cultishly beloved series, he is in great demand on the convention circuit, but he’s been forced to even slow that down lately, as he deals with health issues related to his back.

That comes from the semi-official fan site rdanderson.com, which, though not operated by Anderson himself, nonetheless receives frequent updates from him. Through those updates, he stresses both his gratitude for having such devoted fans and his desire to keep his private life private (which is why he doesn’t have an official site).

We do know that he has a daughter, Wylie, born from a long-term relationship with designer Apryl Prose — the two never got married (unless he kept that a secret, too).

That means she never had the last name Anderson, unlike John Anderson, who played Richard’s grandfather in “MacGyver.” Despite this, though, the two actors are not actually related in real life.

Donald Trump released his first TV ad. The ad will air on the big four networks during prime time, cable channels during the day and on Univision when hell freezes over.

Q: I love “The Whole Nine Yards,” and someone was telling me about another movie with Bruce Willis and Kevin Pollak. What is it called?

A: Actually, Bruce Willis and Kevin Pollak have starred in three other movies together.

It’s easy to forget that both are as comfortable in drama as comedy, so your friend might have forgotten that they also appeared in the 2005 actiondrama “Hostage” together.

They also appeared in the 2012 buddy-cop comedy “Cop Out” and in the 2004 sequel to “The Whole Nine Yards,” predictably titled “The Whole Ten Yards.” Your friend may have forgotten this one because it was a flop.

Of course, Pollak is also considered one of the great character actors working today, which means he’s good at not being noticed. He’s supposed to disappear into supporting roles, and let the star shine.

He summed up his lot in an interview with the Toronto Sun. “As my wife puts it, as long as the leading man needs an attorney or a best friend, then I’ll continue to work.”

Donald Trump’s television ad mistakenly shows footage from Morocco instead of Mexico. Trump insists it’s not a mistake, and he’s going to build a fence along the U.S.-Moroccan border and make Morocco pay for it.

A militia group that is protesting the U.S. government has taken over a wildlife refuge in Oregon. Of course, you can understand why they’re angry. It’s really not easy being a white man in Oregon.

I want to start off by wishing everybody a happy new year, and thank you for being here! I know a lot of you are a little sore today after going to the gym for the first time since last January.

According to a new poll, Donald Trump was the candidate Americans would least want to have as their neighbour. It makes sense, because he’d build a massive wall between your yards and make YOU pay for it.

On “Face the Nation” yesterday, Donald Trump accused Ted Cruz of copying his immigration reform plan, specifically his idea of building a giant wall. Then China said: “Uh, hello?”

The Late Show With Stephen Colbert Someone has stolen Abraham Lincoln’s hands.

A museum in Kankakee, Ill., has reported that their plaster mould of the Great Emancipator’s hands was taken in December. Do you know what this means?

They’ve got his fingerprints.

Somewhere out there there’s a thief that can unlock Lincoln’s iPhone.

The Late Late Show with James Corden My New Year’s resolution for 2016 was to join a gym. My New Year’s resolution next year is to go to that gym.

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg announced his resolution, saying: “My personal challenge for 2016 is to build a simple AI to run my home and help me with my work.” Mark Zuckerberg’s resolution is to build an artificial intelligence system that controls his entire home.

Meanwhile, I’m determined to give up sweets. We’re basically the same person.

Late Night With Seth Meyers Republican hopeful Carly Fiorina said on Sunday that Ted Cruz will say “whatever he needs to say” to win the election. And it’s true. Just this morning, Ted Cruz said: “Hi, I’m Hillary Clinton.”

China this weekend formally replaced its one-child policy with a new law allowing two children per family. That way, families will have one child to play with while the other one’s at work.
