Board postpones school closures

Education: Trustees must now decide which programs to cut to balance budget. By Tracy Hughes

MARKET NEWS STAFF

There won’t be any school closures in the North Okanagan-Shuswap School District for 2016. At Tuesday night’s school board meeting, trustees took the unexpected step of voting to extend the consultation period for the proposed closure of Silver Creek Elementary and Armstrong Elementary by one year until April 2017. A majority of trustees said they did not feel they had adequate infor-

mation to make the decision on closing the elementary schools by April 26, which was the target date if the schools were going to be closed by September 2016. There was particular concern about the demographic and enrolment projections for both the Armstrong and Silver Creek areas, as well as the elimination of the middle school model currently operating at Len Wood in Armstrong. This does nothing to alleviate the school district’s budget pressures, which will require a cut of approxi-

mately $1.3 million for the upcoming school year. Without any savings from closing and consolidating schools, trustees are now going to have to make cuts in other areas – including reducing services to students. Possibilities include cuts to libraries, music, gifted education, career programs, literacy interventions, alternate education programs, counselling services and speech therapy. “Cuts are unavoidable, we can not balance the budget otherwise. By making the choice not to close

schools, we are going to have to choose to cut programs,” said school board chair Bobbi Johnson after the meeting. “What’s going to be cut? I don’t know right now, that will become part of our budget discussions.” The school board also moved to begin a 60-day consultation period on converting Silver Creek Elementary and Ranchero Elementary to K-8 schools.

Silver Creek may become K-8 Continued from front ver Creek is listed as a K-7 school, but for the past two years all the Grade 6 and 7 students have been transferred to Shuswap Middle school, effectively keeping the school to a K-5 model. “Wow, we had no idea we would be walking into this tonight, but I’m elated,” said Kristie Clark, with the Silver Creek Community Association. This will be the third year that Silver Creek has worn a target on its back for closure, as the school board’s motion doesn’t rule out closing it – just postpones it until next year when more information will be gathered. In addition to bumping the public consultation deadline back a year, the board also initiated two task forces to look at demographic information, school configuration, and catchment areas, one for Armstrong and the other for the Salmon Arm area, which will

include Silver Creek. “It’s tough that we know the idea of closing the school will be going on for another year, but we were prepared for that… And by going to K-8, that would put the possibility of increasing enrolment and give us another chance at boosting it even more. Now we can tell parents the doors will be open next year, bring out your students,” says Clark. The move to delay the closure of Armstrong Elementary also delighted the more than 60 Armstrong residents in attendance, who sported black T-shirts stating “Armstrong Schools are the heart of our community.” “Students are entitled to a level of education based on thriving, not just surviving,” said Kate Stein, for the Armstrong Education Committee. The creation of two wide-ranging task forces highlighted divisions among trustees. Michel Saab said trustees already hired

an outside consultant and spent staff time to review these issues and produce the long-term facilities plan. “Now because some of us don’t like the answers, we are going to do it all over again. I’m a bit embarrassed by this.”

“Providing personalized quality service to the community for over 40 years” Trustee Michel Saab But Armstrong trustee Kelly Rowe disagreed, saying the task force will allow trustees to gather and look at information more closely to devise the best options. “The long-term facilities plan gives us direction and a path but now we can look more closely at the information ourselves. We are the ones who can make better decisions.”

Woman uncovers ‘tank shell’ among garbage in ditch By Lachlan Labere

WORSHIP r e h t e g To

MARKET NEWS STAff

A local resident cleaning up illegally dumped waste near Solsqua-Sicamous Road needed more than a garbage bag when he found what appeared to be a military tank projectile. Police say the discovery was reported on Monday, March 7. The person had been picking up yard waste and other waste from a roadside ditch when they found a military-like projectile among the debris. The 16-inch-long by four-inch-in-diameter find was described as a “tank shell.” RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Dan Moskaluk said Sicamous RCMP officers responding to the report examined the shell and imme-

n A resident cleaning up waste from a ditch near Solsqua-Sicamous Road uncovered what she described as a tank shell. diately contacted the Royal Canadian Armed Forces Navy Ordinance Disposal Unit at CFB Equimalt to attend and assess the item. Moskaluk says the shell was removed and taken to a National Defence property in Vernon where it was safely disposed of. The origins of the shell remain a mystery, says Moskaluk, and police are asking the pub-

lic for any information on how the shell ended in the ditch. “We understand that members of the public could possibly be in possession of collectible war memorabilia and be unsure of how to dispose of them; however, this was not the right way,” said Moskaluk. The Sicamous detachment can be reached at 250-836-2878.

More effort needed to reduce poverty The statistics are staggering. According to the B.C. Child and Youth Advocacy Coalition, one in five B.C. children live in poverty. That means they are going to school without breakfast or lunch and in inadequate clothing. How are they expected to hit the books when their stomach is grumbling? They also sense the pressure their parents face to make ends meet. One in five of all rental households in Canada spends 50 per cent of their income on rent and 235,000 people are homeless each year across the country (State of Homeless report, 2014). Hunger Count says 841,191 people visited Canadian food banks in March 2014. Anyone around in the 1980s remembers food banks were just supposed to be temporary. With these figures in mind, that’s why Tuesday’s United Way poverty simulation in Vernon was so important. The one-hour session allowed civic leaders and students a glimpse into the world of lowincome residents by pretending to stand in line, for hours, at the social services or employment offices. Payday loans and pawn shops were readily at hand and utilities and banks had their hands out for mortgages and bills in arrears. Participants were urged to lobby the provincial government to initiate a comprehensive reduction plan and to support grassroots agencies trying to make a difference. They were also asked to break down stereotypes, such as those living on social assistance being lazy. That’s often not the case when wellpaying jobs are disappearing and unemployment is eight per cent. We all need to become informed about the world around us. Those in poverty can be our neighbours, our coworkers and our loved ones. They can be us. –Vernon Morning Star

OPINION

Published by Black Press Ltd. 171 Shuswap Street NW, Salmon Arm, B.C.

Finally ready to return to Dee Lake Maybe it was something in the spring air, that old urge to go fishing, or maybe because it simply was time. This morning I made a reservation to rent a cabin at Dee Lake. I have not been up there for more than four years – not since I lost my old Duff. She was the best fishing partner I’ve ever had. She was my pal. For the better part of 20 years, the two of us used to fish the Dee Lake chain. I always enjoyed spending time up there, and even though each of the lakes contain little more than small, eightto 10-inch rainbow trout – fish that seem a lot larger when you are casting a three weight line – I still liked being up there. Maybe it was the company or maybe it was the fact that most anglers couldn’t be bothered casting for such small fish and we, more often than not, had the lakes to ourselves. Dee Lake itself is a shallow little lake with fallen trees lining almost the entire shoreline. Island Lake, named because of the island at the far end just before the channel that leads into Crooked Lake, has two distinctly different weed beds

THE GREAT OUTDOORS James Murray on either side of the island that are inhabited by a multitude of subaquatic insects. Crooked Lake is little more than a wide channel that connects Island with Deer Lake, although fish regularly travel back and forth between the two lakes. Rising out of the dark stained waters of Crooked Lake are a fair number of deadfalls that make it dangerous to fish when the sun has gone down. The waters of Deer Lake are so clear that a bad cast or too many false casts can spook the fish. For many years I have spent a fair amount of time figuring out how to read the waters of each lake. Learning how to read the waters of any lake requires an understanding of lake

structure and the ability to identify fish-holding waters. It is achieved, in most part, by making observations. I try. It is also about putting your knowledge and observations together so you can make a calculated guess as to where the fish might be and what they are most likely to be feeding on. I try. This much I do know. Fish are relatively opportunistic feeders. They can be quite selective. They are also, by their very nature, relatively wary creatures so here are some important things to remember: Fish are constantly seeking food. They also continuously seek protection from anything which might be inclined to feed on them. Fish tend to cruise through areas where there are both the prospect of a meal and a certain amount of safety from predation. Fallen trees, weed beds, sunken islands and marl provide protective cover for subaquatic insects and forage fish. They also provide both cover and food sources for larger fish looking for something to eat. I look for areas where there is natural protective cover for both insects and fish.

Fish will often cruise the shallows along the shoreline just after sunset when they can swim about freely under the cover of failing light. There are a number of small streams that feed the Dee Lake chain. Creek mouths, where the surface of the water is broken by moving water entering the lake, are also a favourite spot for opportunistic fish to hold while waiting for food to come tumbling their way. I certainly don’t know everything there is to know about trout, their feeding habits or the insects they feed on, but I do know that when I get up to Dee Lake, if the fish appear to be rising to some sort of small, pale-coloured insect with mottled wings, that’s what I’m going to tie onto the end of my line. Each one of the lakes that make up the Dee Lake chain are just about the right size for paddling around in the little 12-foot Sportspal canoe I recently acquired. When I’m up there paddling in my Sportspal canoe, I know I will also, most assuredly, find myself thinking about my old pal Duff – but like I said, it’s time.

THE CSRD BACKYARD

VIEW POINT

COMPOSTER

Assisted death laws morally wrong The Supreme Court of Canada based its decision to legalize euthanasia and assisted suicide on the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, section 7, which states that: “Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of the person...” Not having security was violating the right of the person who wants assisted death. Will doctors and nurses who do not want their conscience violated in taking part in euthanasia and assisted suicide, or make

a referral have their security of person protected? Conscience is very much a part of a human being. Never mind that the judges said that we live in an enlightened age. For nearly 2,500 years physicians and the profession of medicine have recognized that assisted suicide and euthanasia are not medical treatment. In the 21st century medicine has advanced to the point where most pain can be controlled. The Special Joint

Committee recommends that all publicly funded health-care institutions provide medical assistance in dying, and that objecting practitioners must provide an effective referral for the patient. The majority of doctors are not in favour of killing their patients. In the former government, bills to legalize euthanasia were consistently voted down by a large majority. It would behoove the Liberals to take that into consideration

when drafting a new law, but will they? Parliament has until June 6 to submit it, presumably with socalled safeguards, like goal posts that can be moved as we get even more “enlightened!’’ This is not enough time for such fundamental change. The Supreme Court made legally permissible what is a moral wrong. Driven by autonomy, such laws only bring chaos. Hildegard Krieg

Writer curious about First Nations’ opinions Many in Canada have wondered how our natives feel about Canada bringing in all the Syrian immigrants to our country. The numbers of immigrants and how this will be paid for appears to be the sole decision

of our new Liberal government under Justin Trudeau. Natives provide their opinions on most other topics, why is it we have not heard from them on this important issue facing all Canadians.

Election reform needed in Canada What is wrong with the Conservatives? Do they really think their asinine argument on pulling the F-18s is going to fool the public? Of course Mr. Arnold spouts the party line and misinforms his constituents by inferring the Liberals are soft on terrorism. So we’re meant to believe that Mr. Ar-

nold’s military knowledge (or that of anyone else in his party) is better than that of the current minister of defense? Typical politician: spewing rhetoric about something they know little about, trying to convince the public that they’re intelligent and informed and right. If I sound angry, that’s because I am.

I don’t like defending the government. I have never voted to re-elect a government. In my opinion, politicians have always mismanaged the country for their own ends. I hope for election reform so we can get a more representative and inclusive government. Bruce Chomcey

Credit union a safe harbour The Sorrento Branch of SASCU Credit Union received its Safe Harbour designation on Friday, March 4. Representatives from the Shuswap Settlement Services Society joined SASCU staff in celebrating their achievement at the branch in the Sorrento Shoppers Plaza. “SASCU is proud to state that it is a ‘Safe Harbour certified organization,’” says Michael Wagner, recently retired CEO SASCU Financial Group. “Our staff have welcomed the oppor-

tunity as the training provides them with another tool to better understand the unique needs and contributions of our diverse membership.” Safe Harbour is a BC-wide program designed to shelter and protect individuals from all forms of harassment, prejudice and hate. SASCU was one of the first commercial enterprises in the community to become a Safe Harbour when the Salmon Arm Downtown Branch achieved the designation in July 2015. The Sorrento Branch is the final of

SASCU’s four branches to complete the training. “Becoming a Safe Harbour signals a commitment to be a welcoming and safe place embracing diversity and inclusion,” says Bernie Desrosiers, president of Shuswap Settlement Services. “It also serves as a commitment to staff that complaints of racism or hate within the workplace will be addressed...” Organizations wishing to become a safe harbour may contact immigrantservices@shaw.ca for assistance.

SACA seeks new members Sorrento & Area Community Association (SACA) is launching its annual membership drive. The role of SACA is to promote matters of common concern and interest to area residents, businesses and property owners and to advance beneficial projects or improvements. Since 2012, the association has been relatively quiet – doing its good works mostly unnoticed: ensuring the sidewalks are cleared in winter; planting, weeding and watering plants in the ‘downtown’ core in spring and summer and trimming edges to manage spring and summer growth; contracting with a provider to equip and clean the public toilet on the Sorrento Shoppers’ Plaza; and supporting community-led activities such as Remembrance Day ceremonies, Christmas light-up, trails and, most recently, a Se-

niors Housing Study. SACA was the force that made the successful application for a nurse practitioner in 2013 leading to the establishment of Sorrento’s successful Community Health Centre. SACA also provides a unified voice for Sorrento and area when that is required before senior levels of government. SACA, in order to be effective, needs the support of numbers so please consider this when you are asked to join, or renew, for the cost of $5 each. Current behind-the-scenes activities include representing the community with respect to the installation of sewers, Columbia Shuswap Regional District’s Area C Governance review, providing input into the four-laning of the Trans-Canada Highway, road maintenance issues, encouraging the establishment and

appropriate use of community parks and other facilities. SACA needs someone to take on the responsibility of updating and maintaining our website and Facebook page. If you have skills in either of those areas, please call Barry Stokes at 250-6753306. Current members will receive a membership application in their email inbox. If individuals do not get one in this way, you may pick up an application for membership at any of the following Sorrento businesses: Lighthouse Market, Munro’s Prescription Drugs or Sorrento Building Centre. In addition to applying for membership, please keep your eyes open for a springtime announcement of a special event to gather residents together – because it’s 2016. - submitted by SACA

Three reasons why reading is good for your children student is equipped with, not just reading skills, but a love of reading that will last a lifetime. “As students get older, it can become more challenging to keep them engaged in reading,” says North Vancouver elementary teacher Mrs. Harris. Providing realistic content helps. For high school students with learning disabilities,

integrating familiar technology assists with repetition exercises to boost reading. Not all teachers who want to implement this love of reading for their students have access to the resources and technology necessary to do so. To create a meaningful learning experience for their students, teachers can post their projects

with MyClassNeeds, a charitable crowd-funding organization that supports publicly funded schools across Canada. More information about the MyClassNeeds program and how Canadians can contribute to a widespread love of reading is available at www.myclassneeds.ca. www.newscanada.com

(NC) Despite the proliferation of high tech mobile devices, tablets and laptops, the benefits of simply reading a book endure. Fostering a love of reading among children has long-term pay-offs. It teaches them new values and lessons, exercises concentration skills, and even helps them learn new vocabulary or different ways to phrase a thought. The National Reading Campaign, organized by readers, writers, publishers, educators and others focused on creating a society of lifelong readers, reports some of the top reasons why reading is so important: • Readers have better physical health, mental health and empathy. • Reading for just six minutes can reduce stress by as much as 60 per cent, slow your heart beat, ease muscle tension and alter your state of mind. • Reading has better stress-reduction outcomes than playing video games, drinking tea, listening to music or even going for a walk. Reading is important on many levels. So teachers across the country work with innovative approaches to ensure every

Tax break for farmers benefits charities By Jennifer Smith BLACK PRESS

Local residents who use food banks and school lunch programs will now have greater access to local food that has been donated by their neighbours, thanks to the new farmers’ food donation tax credit.

MLA Greg Kyllo “The North Okanagan is renowned for its agricultural products and this program will put even more of those healthful food items onto the plates of people who need them,” said Vernon-Monashee MLA Eric Foster. “The tax credit connects local growers with local registered charities, and we all benefit as a result.” The tax credit, worth 25 per cent of the fair market value, is available to individuals and corporations that carry on the business of farming and donate a qualifying agricultural product to a registered charity.

The agricultural product may include meat products, eggs or dairy products, fish, fruits, vegetables, grains, herbs, honey, maple syrup, mushrooms, nuts or other produce that has been

grown, raised or harvested on a farm in B.C. “The bright, industrious people who grow food in the Shuswap and North Okanagan give back to our communities in so many ways,” said Greg Kyllo,

Shuswap MLA. “Everyone in our region benefits because this program puts even more of our great products on more tables, and recognizes the generosity of our farming community.”

New dean for college campus An experienced college administrator is looking forward to her new role as Okanagan College’s regional dean for the Shuswap Revelstoke region. Joan Ragsdale will start her new job on May 2. “I am keen to settle in the region and work on developing the partnerships and opportunities that will strengthen the college, the campus and the area communities,” says Ragsdale, who boasts of a 21year career with the College of New Caledonia (CNC), a master’s degree in education from UNBC, and a bachelor of science degree from UVic. “In the process of applying for this position and the accompanying interviews and meeting, I have come to appreciate how connected everyone is to the college and how willing they are to contribute to its growth and development in this region.” Ragsdale is familiar with working with an array of regional governments, First Nations, school districts and other partners to provide access and support for post-secondary education and the regional economic development. She served five years

as the regional director for the Lakes campus of CNC, and before that worked as the associate regional director, an instructor, and a program administrator. Over the past year, Ragsdale has worked with School District #91 as skill development and community relations co-ordinator. During the past two decades, Ragsdale has served on a number of community boards and committees, including the Burns Lake Com-

City unveils park options By Martha Wickett

MARKET NEWS STAff

Like whitecaps on the lake, ideas for improvements to Canoe Beach have been rolling in. Just as they have for Klahani Park. In 2012, about 400 people responded to a city survey about the two parks and, last Thursday, close to 100 people came to city hall to see what ideas are being proposed. Panels showed two concepts for both Canoe Beach and Klahani Park. Those attending were asked to identify which features they prefer in each concept. For example, would they like to keep the retaining walls at Canoe Beach or remove them? For Klahani Park, questions included whether three or four ball diamonds should be completed. Mayor Nancy Cooper said she is thrilled with the interest shown. “It’s nice to hear all the buzz,” she said of the busy room. “Everyone has an opinion and that’s what we want to hear.” Cooper said some people, for instance, are pleased with a bike skills park in Klahani, close to the South Canoe trails. Tanja Carlson said she’s happy about an improved boat launch for non-motorized boats at Canoe Beach.

MARThA WicKETT/MARKET NEWS

n Don Derby checks out Concept #1 for Canoe Beach during the city’s open house on Thursday, March 3. “And giving the kids a better swimming area is excellent, far away from the boat launch.” Among June Stewart’s ideas is the need for more parking at Canoe Beach if it’s going to be improved. And she’s not in favour of knocking down the lease cabins in Canoe unless replacement plans are finalized. “If they can’t commit to it, don’t do it.” Don Derby would like to see camping considered in the Canoe Beach area. He pointed out how Herald and Scotch Creek parks get booked by April 1, and he’d like to see more affordable camp-

ing for families in Salmon Arm. Mel Kaufman points to the need to improve the dock and the boat launch at Canoe. “That’s the big one. Get it dredged properly and get rid of the sand.” Coun. Alan Harrison noted a floating swimming dock is a priority for citizens, a wish that will be granted in this year’s budget. He said improving the beach and boat launch appears high on the list. There’s still time to express your opinion. Go to www.salmonarm.ca/ and, at the bottom left of the page, you’ll see the surveys.

Take the 100-meal journey

HEALTHY BITES Serena Caner “This is the best dinner ever!” When my children eat something they really enjoy, they are unusually quiet. They sit in their chairs properly. They don’t whine or play with their food. I get a glimpse of an almost perfect mealtime. “So this is what suppertime is supposed to be like,” I think to myself. The only thing preventing me from fully enjoying my meal is the fact that we are eating Tim Horton bagels with butter for supper. While my inner dietitian critiques the lack of colour and diverse

nutrients of the meal, it has been one of those days and I cannot argue with the peace, the ease, and the absence of dishes to clean at the end of the meal. Sometimes healthy eating feels like a lot of work. March is Nutrition Month and this year’s theme is “Take a 100 Meal Journey. Make small changes one meal at a time.” The idea is to inspire Canadians to make small positive adjustments to their meals and snacks. Each month, we eat almost 100 times; therefore, we have many opportunities to make better choices. Here are some simple ideas you could try: • Drink a glass of water in the morning before you have a coffee • Add some nuts or berries to your morning bowl of cereal • Add a piece of fruit to your lunch • Fill half your din-

ner plate with vegetables • Wait ten minutes before taking a second helping • Choose fruit or yogurt for dessert • Prepare cut-up veggies in your fridge for snacking • Keep your meat portion to the size of a pack of cards • Try to include beans or lentils into one meal a week Making small changes every day just takes a little bit of effort and awareness. A small change I could have made to my children’s bagel meal is to pour a glass of milk and throw a few veggie sticks on the table. By taking little steps to make every eating opportunity healthier, we move towards adopting healthy eating habits for a lifetime. -Serena Caner is a registered dietician who works at Shuswap Lake General Hospital.

Chase

Nail-biters test both teams By Scott Koch contributor

After dispatching the Kamloops Storm in the first round bestof-seven in five games, the Chase Heat face an annual foe in Round 2. The 100 Mile House Wranglers finished first in the regular season and earned home-ice advantage as a result. In the first game in the South Cariboo Capital, the home team caught the Heat sleeping at the wheel to claim a 6-1 victory. The play was not as bad as the score indicates, but Chase only scored once off the twig of Zach Fournier from Rylan Van Unen and Josh Bourne. Nic Bruyere and Daniel Toews shared time in the twine, facing 33 shots. Game 2 was the next night, Saturday, March 5, and a marathon of epic proportions resulted. The Wranglers got on the board first, but Braden Hughes on the power play from Kolten Moore and Trevor Okino evened things

up in the second. The Wranglers got another one in the second, before Moore in the third from Tommy Brown and Hughes notched it at 2-2. The first overtime period passed, the second overtime flew by, and in the third overtime, after 102 minutes of play, the Wranglers scored to claim win number two. Bruyere went the distance stopping 41 of 44; unfortunately he suffered a serious upper body injury on a collision after the winning tally. Game 3 was teed up on a non-traditional Monday night the 7th, where 371 anxious fans took in the contest. At the Art Holding Memorial Arena, a page was taken from Game 2. 100 Mile stormed out in the first, scoring once. Chase came back hard in the second, evening things up, with Hughes from Moore and Michael Fidanza. In the nailbiting third, the Wranglers scored, but with

Toews would stop 48 of 50 shots he faced, helping the Heat win Game 3 over the 100 Mile House Wranglers by a final score of 3-2 in double overtime. 2:11 left, Michael Howlett on a beauty one-timer evened things from Travis Beaubien and Brown. Off to overtime, back-and-forth action through the first with opportunities for both teams. In the second overtime, some furious action in the goal mouth saw Beaubien be the game hero as he slid in the winner from Bourne and Hughes. Toews went the distance in net, denying

Ashley Nickerson, Miss Pritchard Community Association, gave the history of basketball, the second most popular sport in the world, along with showing us her skills with the ball. Natalie MacDonald, Miss Chase Lions Club, did a lip sync of Taylor Swift’s song “22,” complete with a blonde wig so you thought Swift

was actually on the stage. Kassia Bell, Miss Legion Ladies Auxiliary, choreographed a Hip Hop dance number performed to the Justin Beiber song, “Sorry.” Makayla Laluha, Miss Safety Mart Foods, wowed the audience by playing the guitar and singing a song she wrote. The candidates also demonstrated their public speaking skills, telling at least 10 interesting facts about their sponsors. The five candidates as well as the present royalty also modelled a variety of clothing from local businesses. The highlight of the evening was the presentation of their ‘designer originals,’ outfits the girls designed using only plastic and tape,

Every First Sunday

thread and velcro. The audience watched Darnetto in an elegant black and purple party dress. Nickerson was all set for a full day at the office in a business suit complete with a plastic briefcase. MacDonald was all ready to go to her grad

in a pink and grey evening gown, which was made with 125 grocery bags. Bell chose shades of purple and white to design the perfect dress for her prom. Laluha became Cinderella going to the prince’s ball in a beautiful baby-blue gown.

Judges Cathy Ingebrigtson, Dixie Smith and Jesse Jones were kept busy during the fast-paced evening and MC Johanna McIvor kept the show moving smoothly. The crowning of the 2016 Miss Chase and princess is at Chase Secondary on April 30 at 6:30 p.m.

The Thompson Nicola Regional District Library System is hosting readings with crime writer Peter Kirby. Kirby will be reading at the Chase Library on Thursday, March 10 at 5 p.m. Open Season is Kirby’s most recent novel and it features a Guatemalan journalist who is kidnapped, and the only message from her kidnappers is the

murder of her lawyer. In a race against time, Detective Inspector Luc Vanier sets about reconstructing her life through the sordid world of human trafficking, the underbelly of a multinational mining corporation, and the hiding places of desperate refugees. The event is free, but contact the branch to pre-register.

Supporting your Local economy

Shopping locally employs your neighbors, reducing their carbon footprints as well. Another benefit to shopping locally that’s often overlooked is the impact it can have on your neighbors’ carbon footprint. Local businesses often employ members of the community, which translates to shorter commutes, less highway congestion and less fuel consumption. So while shopping locally reduces your carbon footprint, it’s also helping members of your community reduce their own potentially negative impact on the environment.

There will be something old and something new at Carlin Hall next Tuesday. And no, it’s not a wedding. El Mariachi Los Dorados returns to Carlin with exciting new songs and brand new outfits. “Folks are always intrigued by the outfits and hats and we’re excited to showcase that,” says Diego Kohl. This will be El Mariachi’s sixth B.C. Interior tour, which

continues to draw appreciative crowds. “We’ve had people asking about the tour since before Christmas,” Kohl says. Kohl says the band is adding something new to the repertoire – most of it songs that were written many years ago. “Mariachi music never gets old; artists are continually changing the songs,” he says. “Our performance will be a combination of some new and some older, some of which were very big in the golden era of film in

BODNER, HELEN A true pioneer of the Shuswap, Helen Elizabeth Bodner passed away in Piccadilly Care, Salmon Arm, in the early hours of Saturday, March 5, 2016 at the grand age of 100 years. Born in Lestock, Saskatchewan on October 31, 1915, she came to Salmon Arm in 1936. She loved her family, was always there for them, as well all children, many who called her granny Helen. Helen worked for 10 years at High Street Rest home, loved her senior patients, and later worked tirelessly at Senior 109 Association with fund raising for a new facility. She loved the second Tuesday of each month, as she was blessed with hosting her special guests, the handy capped, allowing her an opportunity to present gifts and parties at Christmas time, Valentine and Halloween. Over the years she enjoyed going out to card games, or having friends in to play. Her life was helping others, and in return she was most thankful to all her friends to be so caring to her in her time of need. Predeceased by her husband, Michael, son, Harold, daughter in law Anne, parents, brothers, Alex, Peter, Michael and baby John; sisters, Mary, Lizzie, Julia, Margaret, Anne, and twins, Veronica and Mary. She leaves her loving daughter, Audrey, 4 grandchildren, Michael (Karen) Fontaine, Robert (Katrina) Fontaine, Darren (Denise) Bodner, Debra (Kevin) Delaney; 9 great grandchildren and 3 great great grandchildren, as well as many nieces and nephews. At Helen’s request there will be no formal service. A big thank you to the Shuswap Lodge, Piccadilly Care, Marion Kilby, and Doctor Theron. Memorial donations may be sent to the Children’s Wish Foundation. On line condolences may be sent to Helen’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com Arrangements are in the care of Bowers Funeral Home and Crematorium, Salmon Arm.

MATHIESON, ALEXANDER WILLIAM July 20, 1934 - March 1, 2016 It is with sadness that we announce the passing of our father and grandfather at Shuswap Lake General Hospital on March 1, 2016 with his loving family by his side. Dad is survived by his children Shelley, Alex (Betty), and Robert (Charlene). Grandpa will be fondly remembered by his grandchildren Mike (Char), Alicia (Colter), Jeffrey (Jenn), Trevor (Trish), Shawn (Bree), Ashley (Mike), Colton, Alex (Dallas), great grandchildren and loving feline companion Spaz as well as extended family members. He was predeceased by his parents Alex and Nellie Mathieson, sister Phyllis Kavalinas, nephew Clayton Kavalinas and son-inlaw Robert Billick. Dad was born in Stettler, Alberta and raised in Halkirk, Alberta. He moved with his family to Canoe, BC as a young man. He spent most of his working career in the logging industry and enjoyed farming as well. Dad loved gardening and shared the fruits of his labor with family and friends. Dad was well known for his yellow hard hat that he wore everywhere for many years before retiring it. Rodeos were another passion of his but most of all his priority was spending time with his family. Dad`s presence among us will be deeply missed. A service celebrating Dad’s life will be held on Saturday, March 26, 2016 at 11am at Bowers funeral chapel. A reception will follow the service. Should family and friends so desire, memorial donations may be made to the Shuswap Hospice Society or charity of choice. Online condolences may be sent through Dad’s obituary at www. bowersfuneralservice.com.

NORMA LILIAN OWENS May 23, 1935 – February 22, 2016 It is with heavy hearts and lots of love we announce the passing of Norma Lilian Owens into the arms of Jesus at Shuswap Lake General Hospital on 22 February, 2016 at the age of 80. She is pre-deceased by her father, Walter George Robertson, mother, Lilian Hilda Wright and brother, Walter Robertson. She is survived by her loving husband Ralph, children Colin (Gail), Gary (Charlene) and Gillian (Corey), six grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. Norma was born in Bootle near Liverpool in England. She met and married Ralph on 19 March, 1955. They sailed from Liverpool to Canada and crossed by train straight to Salmon Arm in July 1966. She quickly found a job as a special education assistant, working with children in Salmon Arm Elementary, Salmon Arm West and Carlin Schools. She was also very involved with Shuswap Theatre in all areas of production and was presented with a lifetime membership. She was a member of Shuswap Singers as narrator for many concerts. In 1979 she produced and directed Sound of Music in the United Church. She also narrated for some of the Christmas Cantatas at the Baptist Church. Many thanks go out to the staff at Bastion Place and the hospital for the compassionate care in her final days. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Shuswap Hospital Foundation. A celebration of life will be held at Shuswap Community Church on Saturday, March 12, 2016 at 1 p.m. A reception will follow the service in the Church hall allowing friends and family to continue sharing memories.

BILLICK ROBERT “BOB” MICHAEL March 2nd 1952 – February 25th 2016 With sorrow and heavy hearts, the family of Robert Michael Billick announce his passing at home on February 25th 2016. His courageous three year battle with cancer ended in the arms of his wife, the love of his life. He is survived by his loving wife of 37 years, Shelley; children Michael (Char), Jeffrey (Jenn), and Trevor (Trish); grandchildren Trey, Jack, and Priya; and loving canine companion Izzy. He was the dear brother of Joanne Prigmore (Doug), and Karla; and fondly remembered by numerous nieces and nephews and their families. Robert was predeceased by his parents Mike and Mary Billick. Robert was born March 2nd 1952. A lifelong resident of Canoe/Salmon Arm, BC, he was the eldest of three children. When it came to work, Robert was always looking for a challenge, and variety was his motto. He was truly a master of all trades, and formed lifelong friendships everywhere he went. He held many careers over the years, including: autobody repairman at Pro-Autobody; logger at Mica; log home interior finisher in Seymour Arm; working at Mara Lumber, Central and Revelstoke hardware stores; and owner of Shuswap Creative Craft. He finally found his niche at Captain’s Cove Marina where he spent the rest of his career. Here he earned the title Harbour Master, and became fondly known as “Captain Bob”. His love and pride for his family and the value he placed on friendships was second-to-none. He will be remembered for his quick wit, and as a constant source of wisdom to his friends and family thanks to his many talents. Our heartfelt thanks go out to all who supported both Robert and the family through this challenging time. He will be deeply missed by all. A celebration of life will be held at the Prestige Inn on March 19th 2016 at 1:30pm. If friends wish, a donation may be made to Shuswap Hospice Society, World Wildlife Fund or charity of your choice. “It’s about the journey, not the ending” Please email condolences and share memories of Robert Billick through the obituary at www. bowersfuneralservice.com

Born Nov. 21, 1921 at Claresholm, Alta. to pioneers Nat & Mamie McIntyre, Mom moved to Calgary after graduating from high school. She married the late J. Darrald Oliver to whom she was married for 57 years and together they had 3 children. She was predeceased by Darrald in 2000 and by Terry, their oldest child, in 1974 as well as by two sisters and a brother.

Several nieces and nephews also survive her. Many friends, both old and new remember her with respect, grateful for the opportunity of knowing her. Always trying to make her world a better place, Mom volunteered in Calgary as opportunities were presented - from establishing a Brownie, Girl Guide pack in her community, to helping establish a new church in Haysboro, and offering her time in the area of Pastoral Care at Rockyview Hospital. She was honoured by the Calgary Hospital Region for her 30 years of service and she was an active and founding member of St. Andrew’s United Church in Calgary and was recognized as a charter member of the United Church Women. After Dad’s passing she took a giant leap and sold her home and her beloved garden and moved into a condo. At Sierras of Heritage, she found a whole new community of friends and was active and engaged in the social club, aquafit, crafts, pool and cards. Her friends there remember her zest for life, and her “just do it” attitude. She loved to walk and hike and received great pleasure from her travels. Always game for something new, she wasn’t going to be left behind! Her on going tug o’war with the computer was evidence of her persistence and her drive to “keep up”. She was a principled woman, and has always been a strong, steadfast example of a decent human being living their life. She loved flowers and she loved shopping! There is at least one ladies store in Salmon Arm that was a frequent destination! Health issues started to arise and in 2015 she reluctantly, but bravely, sold her Calgary condo and moved to Salmon Arm. One of the first residents of Andover Terrace Resort, it didn’t take her long to renew, strengthen and establish new friendships. Health issues continued to dog her but she fought hard to maintain her independence. Behind her walker, she set a pace that spoke to a sense of purpose! However, the body can only endure so much and she was hospitalized. Staff at Salmon Arm Hospital knew her as stoic as she faced her final fate. She was transferred to Palliative Care at Bastion Place and was cared for in a most compassionate way by the staff there. Our family is very grateful for the wonderful medical care she received while in Salmon Arm – from physiotherapy (Julie Parenteau) to pain management (Dr. M. Lourens) and especially by Drs. Barb McKinnon and Chris Weicker. Following Mom’s wishes, there will be no service. Her ashes will be returned to Calgary and placed with those of her husband and son. Online condolences may be sent through Rae’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com

Community Newspapers We’re at the heart of things™

GORDON ROBERT JENSEN. AUGUST 27, 1982 - FEBRUARY 15, 2016 Gordie left us suddenly and far too soon at the age of 33. He was born in Salmon Arm and raised in Sicamous, graduating from Eagle River High in 2000. Gordie’s kind-hearted and gentle nature taught us to treat all living creatures with kindness and respect. He never spoke un-kindly to others, he always said “you never know what kind of a day they are having”, he always released the fish he caught and he even took his respect as far as releasing spiders and “stink bugs” into the great outdoors, if they found their way into the house. Gordie moved to Vancouver and became a Red Seal Cement Mason. He excelled in his profession, working on many large scale projects like the Olympic Village site in 2010. His work can be seen in many locations around the Lower Mainland. He loved nature, & being outdoors; always respecting the environment; whether he was enjoying it on his rugged mountain biking trails or in his kayak or while he was fishing. Gordie loved to travel, see the world & meet new people. He & Brian traveled to Thailand, he loved the exotic food and sites. During the last while, Gordie lived with his girlfriend Shauna, in the Okanagan, traveling between Osoyoos & Peachland, looking out for his Grandparents. He would make sure they were well, had companionship, shoveled driveways and many times got them to their doctor’s appointments. We thank our friends & family & Gordie’s school buddies, co-workers and many friends for being there for us during this stressful time. We would also like to thank the wonderful people at Bowers Funeral Service, for their compassion and sensitivity. Gordie will be lovingly missed by his parents; Rob & Terri Jensen and his brother and best friend, Brian; his Grandparents, Elaine &Gordon Nixdorf, his Grandmother, Grethe Jensen and his girlfriend, Shauna. Aunts, Karin, Lena, Mary Ann & Karen. Uncles, Rob, Keith, Jim & Jimmy and numerous cousins will miss him dearly. We have lost a very special person, he has left a void in our lives, but he will always be in our hearts. “Don’t ever let anyone dull your sparkle”

It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Joan in the early hours of Monday morning March 7, 2016 at the age of 86 years. A service celebrating Joan’s life will be held on Friday March 11, 2016 at 1pm at Bowers Funeral Chapel. Online condolences may be sent through Joan’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com BROUGHTON, AGNES EVELYN (PLANT) The Lady of the Lake Agnes was born in Matheson, Ontario, August 22, 1934 and passed on February 27, 2016 at Shuswap Lake General Hospital at the age of 81 years. Predeceased by her parents Percy and Martha and sisters Joan (Bill) and Mary. Agnes leaves hubby John (Jack) of 63 ½ years, daughters Debbie (Brian), Christine (David) and Donna (Willy), two granddaughters Kelly (Kory) and Semana (Nick), grandson Daniel, great grandkids Mya Jane, Keenan, Ben and Luke as well as a multitude of great friends especially in Sorrento Place on the lake where we have lived since 1988. She spent her junior years in northern Ontario until marrying John “Jack” Broughton at 17 years old. They moved to Baie Veate in Newfoundland where she worked in a quality control laboratory at an asbestos mill. In 1973 they moved to Surrey, BC where she worked in an office and sold furniture; and they have a house full of furniture! In 1985 they moved to Kamloops, BC where she worked in an office, and then moved to Sorrento in 1988 where they have enjoyed many friends throughout the 28 years there. Agnes loved her garden and loved to cook and entertain friends for dinners and happy hours. Many winters were spent away in Arizona, Hawaii and Florida where she loved to lay in the sun, swim in the pool, soak in the hot tub and was a good shuffle board player. She was once caught in a big wave in Hawaii and was rescued by a good friend who also retrieved her bathing suit which she had not missed. Thanks to the many doctors that cared for her and the wonderful staff at Shuswap Lake General Hospital where she spent her last days. Thanks to Fischer’s Funeral Services for their assistance with all the final details and necessary paperwork; also to the staff at Salmon Arm Credit Union in Sorrento for arranging all the necessary changes. There will be no service by request. Her ashes will be scattered at a later date when the family can be together. Email condolences and share memories of Agnes through her obituary at www.fischersfuneralservices. com.
