The path to patios The future is fossils BARRY COULTER

The downtown seasonal patio bylaw continues to wend its through through City Hall, heading towards reality. At Monday’s regular City Council meeting, Mayor Pratt and Council discussed the pending bylaw (No. 3860 2016) allowing outdoor patios downtown. City staff had returned amendments to the proposed bylaw, based on input from the Downtown Business Association and

the public. Two amendments in particular prompted discussion amongst Council Monday — the issue of the business cooking on the patio, and the size of the theoretical patios themselves. To Barbecue Or Not To Barbecue Councillors took opposing sides; the argument in essence being to “start off with a bang,” allowing cooking from the outset, and if there should be problems

to amend the bylaw afterwards. Conversely, with cooking on the patios prohibited, if a business really wanted to that, they could come before the City and make their case then. Coun. Tom Shypitka felt that if a “vendor or licensee” wanted to do some cooking on the patio, that would be fine, so long as proper health, safety and fire regulations were adhered to.

Centre announces major fossil find, funding for paleontology gallery and lab BARRY COULTER

Big news out of the deep past and the present are putting Cranbrook on the natural history map. Wednesday evening, June 15, at the Cranbrook History Centre, at the CHC’s ongoing lecture series on the East Kootenay’s fossil heritage, two major announcements were made:

One concerned the local discovery of an important discovery of a Triassic fossil site near Cranbrook. It was also announced Wednesday that the CHC has secured funding to develop the Centre’s new paleontology gallery and research lab.

Over 100 people attended the official opening of the Cherry Creek Falls Regional Park over the weekend.

Cherry Creek Falls park opening celebrated number of people who came out to mark the grand opening speaks to how much this landmark is treasured,” The evolution of the park from a landmark known and used by locals to a protected regional park occurred over a five year period

and involved the community and all levels of government. In April 2011, an application was submitted to the Province to build a rock quarry adjacent to the Falls spurring a group of local residents to see what they could do to save the site and see it

protected. This led to the formation of the Meadowbrook Community Association and lobbying of provincial and local politicians. The RDEK expressed its opposition to the proposed quarry and its willingness to create a day-use

only park at Cherry Creek Falls provided the Association could convince the mineral tenure holder to forfeit the claim and the Province to prohibit mining on the entire tenure. The Community Association Board raised the required $55,000

and on April 5, 2013, was informed that the tenure holder had forfeited the claim and that future mining had been prohibited on the 400-plus acres. The RDEK applied to the Province for a license to create an Area E Park on approximately 40 acres

Major fossil discovery announced Continued from page 1 CHC Executive Director Char Murray is hoping this new facility — which will be key to the area’s growing importance as a fossil site — will be open next year. The Wednesday meeting at the CHC featured a presentation by Dr. Robert Gaines, a researcher from Pomona College, Clarement California. Dr. Gaines along with research partner, Dr. Jean-Bernard Caron, are discoverers of the Kootenay National Park-Marble Canyon deposits, which is an extension of the Burgess Shale. The series presented by the CHC is proving to be a popular draw. Murray said about 120 people turned out to take in Dr. Gaines’s lecture and to honour amateur paleontologist and local prospector Michel Plourde, who discovered the marine fossil site. Plourde was told by a friend some 20 years ago, about a remote East Kootenay mountain location with fossil fish. Over the next decade, on free weekends, Michel would hike all day, sleep in the mountains and pack out big rocks in order to collect the

Triassic-era fossils. Fossil creatures he discovered so far include several different species of fish and an early marine reptile. Plourde was concerned about the protection of the fossils and the fossil site itself, so he stacked up the fossils in his shed until he could be assured of their protection. He didn’t want to see the collection whisked away to a distant location as has happened with many of the important East Kootenay discoveries. The advent of the natural history fossil exhibit at the Cranbrook History Centre has prompted Plourde to donate what may be likely one of the most significant private fossil donations in B.C. history. He has donated his entire collection to the CHC which will catalogue, preserve and curate and eventually display the specimens in the new gallery. Wednesday evening, Cranbrook Mayor Lee Pratt presented Plourde with a plaque, recognizing his contribution. CHC Director Guy Santucci described the international significance of the specimens. “The Triassic age

lasted from 251 to 199 million years ago,” he said. “Triassic fish are rare and [found] far apart. British Columbia is now poised to be on the world-wide forefront of these important fossils. “The specimen’s ancestors survived following the great Permian extinction which wiped out 95 per cent of all life on earth,” Santucci said. “This is B.C.’s second site producing Triassic fish, the first being Wapiti Lake in northern B.C.” The paleontological gallery and research is being helped into being by a Columbia Basin Trust grant $20,000 through the Columbia Kootenay Cultural Alliance. The City of Cranbrook also gave $10,000 towards the project, and the Cranbrook Archives, Museum And Landmarks Society (CAMAL), which oversees the History Centre, has kicked in $10,000. In conjunction with a world class fossil display that includes unique local trilobite specimens, the CHC is examining the provisioning of the laboratory and research space, so that more researchers will be attracted to the area and

conduct studies on other material available in the Kootenays. The Cranbrook History Centre is generating public interest and momentum in local fossil heritage by inviting a number of world renowned researchers, such as Gaines, to speak of the local fossils and work that has been done in the East Kootenay region. Jean Bernard Caron of the Royal Ontario Museum, and Gaines’ Burgess Shale colleague, will be at the next public lecture, July 21. Murray said he is specifically coming to talk about the Eager Formation out at Fort Steele, renowned for its trilobite fossil beds. The importance of the Eager Formation as a fossil site is perhaps yet to be fully realized. “We all know about the Burgess Shale,” Murray said. “But the Eager Formation is 8 million years older than the Burgess Shale. “A large part of Cranbrook’s history is these fossil beds,” she added. “People have been digging fossils for a long time in this area.”

Council ponders the path to the patios Continued from page 1 “We’ve heard some of the concerns about smells and smoke, but if we can allow a hotdog vendor a license to cook outside on our sidewalks … why can’t our licensees who are paying taxes do the same thing?” Coun. Ron Popoff leaned in the same direction. “Should there ever be someone who wants to do some cooking on the patio, its a business decision. We may want to consider … adding a nuisance or complaint clause into this bylaw. And if you want to start some cooking on your patio, get signed approval from the neighbour on either side of you. And leave it to the regulators.” Coun. Norma Blissett took the opposing view, citing nuisance and complaint concerns. “There often are large volumes of smoke created — especially in

a barbecue situation, and we need to be concerned about the neighbours. As far as just preparing food at the table, I don’t think that’s the issue, but it is the concern about a large cooking facility outside, and I think to start we should stick to not allowing the food preparation outside and then see how it goes. We can always amend the bylaw. We do it all the time.” Coun. Shypitka responded that a policy was already in place, citing local hotdog vendors. “Anyone can get a street license for downtown,” he said. “And now we’re telling our people who are paying taxes that they can’t do what some other person is doing on their own. “This is a project we started to generate some enthusiasm and revitalization downtown, and it seems

we’re boxing it in before we’ve even started. “We amend bylaws all the time, so why not start this with a bang? If we restrict people too much, they might lose interest. If we see some problems, next year we can amend the bylaws, but I think the first couple of years are the most important.” Mayor Lee Pratt said he didn’t think “it was really a fair comparison. “As far as the hotdog vendor goes, he’s fully self-contained, people are not normally sitting on patios eating their hotdogs. “We’re talking about a what-if scenario,” Mayor Pratt added. “I think somebody downtown in the restaurant business realistically … doesn’t want to become the barbecuer on the patio. “I think we’re fine with saying no cooking on the patios. If someone really wants to do it, let them come and

“If we say [yes to] cooking on patios, we’re opening it up to a lot. And then we’re going to have to deal with it, and if it’s in the bylaw then it’s a bigger issue.” Mayor Lee Pratt

“I say start off big, do it right, have the proper regulations in place, and we’ll address the what-if’s if they happen.” Coun. Tom Shypitka ask for it, and we could possibly give them a temporary trial license. But I don’t think we want to open up the avenue for a whole lot of complaints.” “We don’t know if there will be a lot of

complaints, but we’re already shutting it down because we think the what-if scenario’s going to happen,” Coun. Shypitka responded. “We can’t amend bylaws over something that’s never happened. So I say start off big, do it right, have the proper regulations in place, and we’ll address the what-if’s if they happen.” Mayor Pratt said that if someone was adamant about cooking “they could come to us and we could talk about their plan. But if we say [yes to] cooking on patios, we’re opening it up to a lot. And then we’re going to have to deal with it, and if it’s in the bylaw then it’s a bigger issue.” Coun. Blissett said that any restaurant that is looking to expand onto a patio already has a kitchen, so they can cook all they need to in their own kitchen. “Let’s put this bylaw in place and see how it

works. We’re not going to create a problem by not having barbecues. We could be creating a problem by allowing it.” After further to and fro, the issue was put to a vote, and the majority of Council voted not to allow cooking (Councillors Popoff and Shypitka voted to allow it). Out of 777 Downtown Parking Spots … Another tricky issue is the number of parking spaces to be taken up by an outdoor patio. The bylaw originally allows for one parallel parking space or up to three angled parking stalls. The Downtown Business Association suggested an increase to five angled or three parallel spots. Coun. Blissett suggested a compromise — two parallel or four angled. Ron Popoff didn’t see it as an issue. “There are 777 park-

ing spots in in greater downtown, as opposed to losing a dozen or so in the interests of creating downtown vibrancy. To me it’s a non-issue. Three and five gives them the flexibility to do what they want.” Mayor Pratt responded that the dozen or so stalls in question out of the 777 were among the most highly used downtown. “How many parking stalls to we lose to create downtown vibrancy?” Popoff asked. “What’s the sweet spot?” Coun. Shypitka argued again that “we don’t want to baby step this. We want to come in full-impact.” Maryse Leroux, Policy Analyst for the City of Cranbrook, told Council that the cost of installing a patio at the bylaw size, including railings, furniture and deck, would be about a $6,000 investment.

We would do well to remember that in the Bible, we are coming face to face with a very foreign (and small) slice of the human drama—with customs, habits, a whole consciousness, that we do not share. We would do well to be respectful enough not to claim for ourselves too great a familiarity with it. We can study it and teach it and read it to deepen our lives. But we kid ourselves if we think we can control it. Perhaps we can try to keep that in mind when we disagree over what it means. We are all on foreign soil. The whole Bible is a foreign land. It wasn’t written for me, or for us. It was written 2536 years, and even longer, ago. The miracle of it all, of course, is that so many people still find wonder and solace and hope in such ancient writings. I certainly don’t expect my words to still have that kind of effect in that way in the year 4552. That may be a good thing. Rev. Yme Woensdregt is Pastor at Christ Church Anglican in Cranbrook

OPINION/EVENTS

The apocalyse that is Brexit H ow’s this for apocalyptic? “As a historian I fear Brexit (a British vote to leave the European Union in the referendum on 23 June) could be the beginning of the destruction of not only the EU but also Western political civilisation in its entirety,” said Donald Tusk, the President of the European Union, in an interview published on Monday in the German newspaper Bild. Tusk is not alone in his worries: last weekend Margot Wallstrom, Sweden’s foreign minister, fretted aloud that the British referendum could trigger an avalanche of demands for special treatment or in/out referendums in other EU member countries. “Other EU member states [may] say: ‘Well if they can leave, maybe we should also have referendums and maybe we should also leave,’” Wallstrom told the BBC. Like Tusk, she actually fears that the whole 60-year experiment in European unity may start to fall apart if Britain leaves. EU politicians are not much interested in what happens to the United Kingdom after it leaves (which it may well do: an opinion poll last Friday gave “Leave” a tenpoint lead). Britain was usually whiny and often downright obstructive in its dealings with the EU, and if it now chooses to commit a spectacular act of self-mutilation, the general European view will be that it deserves everything it gets. That is likely to be quite a lot. If the UK loses duty-free access to the EU’s “single market” of 28 countries and 500 million people, it becomes far less attractive to non-European investors who want access to that market. It also loses every trade deal it has with other countries, since they were all negotiated by the EU as a whole. Britain could spend ten years trying to renegotiate them on its own, and end up with much

worse terms. The resultant collapse in national income might be avoided if Britain remained a part of the single market, which is theoretically possible. Both Norway and Switzerland belong to it without being EU members – but they have to pay in just as much as if they were members, and they have to accept the EU rules on freedom of movement, which means that any citizen of any EU member can live and work in their country. That’s not going to go down well with the leaders of the “Leave” campaign, since their strongest selling points are stopping immigration, and “saving money” by ending payments to the EU. They simply could not survive politically if they openly abandoned those goals. Nor would EU leaders be willing to fudge a deal: in order to deter other Gwynne members from leaving, it will be politically necessary Dyer for them to punish Britain economically. You might wonder how any sane British politician, knowing this, would risk holding a referendum, let alone advocate a “Leave” vote. The answer is a foolish miscalculation (on the part of Prime Minister David Cameron), and reckless ambition (on the part of his would-be successor, Boris Johnson). Cameron promised the referendum three years ago merely as a device for preserving the unity of the Conservative Party. It would pacify the right wing of his party, which wanted out, but he thought he would never have to hold the referendum because his coalition partners, the Liberal Democrats, would veto it. Unfortunately, the Conservatives won a narrow majority in last year’s election, the coalition ended, and Cameron was stuck with his promise. So far, so stupid – and then Boris Johnson, Britain’s somewhat better-mannered answer to Donald Trump, took the leader-

ship of the “Leave” campaign. Johnson was not even a dedicated anti-EU campaigner, but he was certainly dedicated to taking the leadership of the Conservative Party and the prime ministership away from David Cameron. Leading the “Out” campaign to victory, forcing Cameron’s resignation and taking his place was the only way Johnson could achieve his ambition, so he took it. He has been utterly ruthless in his campaign tactics, telling lies he knows to be lies (like how much Britain pays in to the EU), and using anti-immigrant rhetoric that reeks of racism. So he may win. But he wouldn’t enjoy being prime minister much, given what would happen to the United Kingdom if he wins. Scotland will certainly vote “Remain”, and it would probably hold a second independence referendum and leave the UK rather than be dragged out of the European Union by English votes. And the truncated Britain that Johnson led would be dealing with a world of economic woe. But what about the EU? Would it fragment? Would that lead to the destruction of “Western political civilisation in its entirety”, as Tusk suggested? (By that he presumably meant the end of the trans-Atlantic cooperation between the United States and a more or less unified Europe that has characterised Western strategy for the past sixty years.) Probably not. The EU is in the economic doldrums, and the prospect of several million refugees coming in has facilitated the rise of nationalist parties, some verging on neo-fascist, in a number of member countries. But the advantages of the single market would probably be enough to hold the EU together, especially if the members had the horrible example of Britain’s fate as a warning.

The Mayor of London, Ontario (which has something of a history of mayoral shenanigans — I’m looking at you, Joe Fontana) has stepped down from his duties because he was caught having an affair with his deputy mayor. Mayor Matt Brown says he is stepping aside because he wants to spend more time with his children and wife in the coming weeks. I bet he does. But he also told the Globe and Mail that his wife was extremely angry at him, so that’s going to be some quality family time, I’m betting. Deputy Mayor Maureen Cassidy has resigned and seeks to spend time with her family as well. I guess those two crazy kids just couldn’t help themselves. All that talk about budgets, amortization and infrastructure. Oh my, I’m getting the shivers again. Carolyn Grant is the Editor of the Kimberley Bulletin

Bandits weather conditions to sweep Rangers

Wind and rain doesn’t dampen Bandits bats through extended American Legion Baseball doubleheader Tuesday evening Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor

No amount of rain, wind or cold was able to dampen the lively bats of the Cranbrook Bandits (10-7-0) Tuesday evening in American Legion Baseball action at Confederation Park. After dropping three consecutive contests to close out the weekend, the Bandits bounced back Tuesday, sweeping the visiting Kootenai Valley Rangers in consecutive outings, enduring gusting winds and bone-chilling rain to score victories of 16-9 and 8-6, respectively. “When our pitcher is doing well and the defence is doing their job, if they get a couple guys on base, we have to try not to panic and be patient,” said Paul Mrazek, head coach of the Bandits, following his team’s trio of defeats over the weekend. “We also need to hit the ball a little better. “If we can tighten up defensively a little bit and keep pitching well, we should start to see more [wins].” Suffice to say Mrazek saw all that and more Tuesday as the Bandits

bats came to life, twice posting six-run innings en route to a 16-9 triumph over the visitors from Eureka, Mont. A six-run effort in the bottom of the first inning vaulted the Bandits ahead early, before a second six-run inning in the bottom of the sixth virtually sealed the outcome.

With a 9-6 lead on the board, the rain and wind ripped across the field as Linden Meggison stepped to the dish with the bases juiced in the bottom of the fifth inning. The Bandits rookie sent a towering shot towards centre field, with what looked to be a routine fly ball. But as the wind howled, Meggison’s moonshot made its way toward left field, giving a bevy of trouble to the Rangers outfielders desperately trying to track it.

Finally, the baseball came to crash between left and centre field. Meggison trucked his way to second for a base-clearing double, scoring Cedar Kemp, Kei Chlopan and Caden McCormack in the process to boost the lead to 15-6. As Meggison came to rest at second base, the tarps came out marking the first rain delay of the afternoon. When the teams came back following a 20-minute delay, the visiting Rangers struck for three runs to momentarily restore some hope for a rally. But there was no more to be had as the Bandits added one final run in the bottom of the sixth before blanking the Rangers in the seventh to end the game. On the mound veteran Rylan D’Etcheverry collected the win, going 5.1 innings, striking out four batters while allowing eight runs (four earned) on five hits. Hank Dunn bagged the loss for the Rangers, lasting two innings while allowing six runs (four earned) on three hits.

Outfielder Jake Bromley (#9) gallops into third base during the first game of American Legion Baseball doubleheader action between the Cranbrook Bandits and Kootenai Valley Rangers at Confederation Park Tuesday night. The backend of the doubleheader proved just as dodgy in terms of the weather as the rain and wind continued. The host Bandits built an 8-3 lead by the time the game was four innings old and that was more than enough to collect the win. The Rangers man-

aged to score one run in each of the following innings, but came up short in an 8-6 defeat. Bandits pitcher Hayden Mastel tossed three innings, earning his first victory with only two hits and three runs against (two earned). Dawson Henrie was tagged with the loss for

the Rangers, last two innings while surrendering two runs (zero earned). Offensively, outfielder Jake Bromley did heavy damage for the Bandits, knocking in three runs, while going 4-for-4 at the plate, including a triple. The Bandits visit the

Glacier Twins (Whitefish, Mont.) and Mission Valley Mariners (Polson, Mont.) on Saturday and Sunday, respectively. Next home action for the Bandits comes June 29 when the Mariners visit Cranbrook for a doubleheader at Confederation Park.

Hybrid icing, video replay to be introduced following WHL AGM WHL announces rule changes; 2016 pre-season schedule takes Kootenay Ice back to Kennewick, Crowsnest Pass Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor

Taylor Rocca Photo

Vince Loschiavo (#18) and the Ice will take on the Hitmen in pre-season play in Crowsnest Pass once again.

The Western Hockey League wrapped up its Annual General Meeting in Vancouver on Wednesday afternoon, announcing a variety of changes that will come into play for the 2016-17 campaign. Most notably, hybrid icing will replace automatic icing and new video replay systems will be introduced into all WHL buildings for the upcoming season. Additionally, the league released its schedule for the 2016 pre-season, which will take Cranbrook’s Kootenay Ice back to Kennewick, Wash., for the TriCity Americans annual tourney before once again travelling to Crowsnest Pass, Alta., for the annual Crowsnest

Pass Thunder Challenge. Hybrid icing takes its place in the WHL after a successful run at the National Hockey League level. Previously, Canadian Hockey League rules dictated automatic icing calls. Now, with hybrid icing in place, players will be allowed more competition and races for pucks sent the length of the playing surface from behind centre ice. Whereas previously the play was blown dead immediately upon the puck crossing the opposition goal line, players will now be allowed to compete for the loose puck up to the end-zone face-off circles. Video replay systems are set to be installed in all WHL facilities in time for the 2016-17 campaign, providing greater

review capabilities for goal judges. Hawk-Eye Innovations, which also supplies the NHL and Major League Baseball, will be providers of the new replay technology. One other minor rule change brings clarity to pucks entering the net off a player’s skate. Under the rule modification, players will be legally allowed to redirect pucks into the net with a skate in any fashion from outside the crease. This eliminates any grey area regarding the appearance of a distinct kicking motion on any play in question. Previously, players were not allowed to distinctly kick pucks into the opposing team’s net.

Cranbrook skiers named to Canada Ski Cross developmental team Cranbrook natives Zoe Chore and India Sherret named to Canadian national development program

Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor

Canada Ski Cross unveiled the names of additional athletes selected to its 2016-17 national development team Wednesday afternoon, tabbing a pair of Cranbrook-raised skiers to the program. Zoe Chore, 18, and India Sherret, 18, both of Cranbrook, were named to the program roster, which includes six young female athletes from across the country, as well as nine men. Both Chore and Sherret will take part in the newly-minted Centralized Training and Education Program out of Calgary, established by Canada Ski Cross, allowing them to continue pursuing Olympic dreams while also working towards a post-secondary education. “We believe we can create a better athlete through this Centralized Program and target all aspects of an athlete’s development, including strength and conditioning, mental strength, sport-specific skills of ski cross such as starts and jumping, alpine technical skills, all while developing the academic and athletic character of the athlete,” said Willy Raine, ski cross athletic director at Alpine Canada Alpin, in a press release. “Based on our knowledge of the Canada Ski Cross World Cup team, which is currently ranked number one in the world, we have identified gaps in younger athletes and believe this program directly targets the next generation of ski cross successes while offering the athletes an opportunity to pursue post-sec-

ondary education.” Athletes will train over 100 days on snow in addition to 32 days of ski cross-specific competition. Each athlete in the program receives support from the Government of Canada through Sport Canada’s Athlete Assistance Program, providing assistance with living, training and education expenses. “The Centralized Program is a great example of an organization ensuring that athletes that are involved in later-maturation sports have access to the type of services that can not only make them more successful athletically, but also ensure they have a more fortified after-sport pathway,” said Peter Judge, director of Winter Sport at Own the Podium, a not-for profit organization committed to furthering strategies for national sport organizations in an effort to achieve Olympic and Paralympic success. “It’s essential for Canada’s continued high performance success that mature athletes within the system have a more sustainable pathway.”

Chore represented Canada at the 2016 Youth Olympic Games (YOG) in Lillehammer, Norway, in February 2016. “I met so many new

to be from Canada and from the Kootenays. Most people didn’t know where that was, but I think they will all know about skiing in Kimberley now. “I have never seen or

raced against this group of girls before. It was hard to judge where I lie in the field. Most of the other girls, despite where they come from, train in Europe all winter. I realized how much I value coming from Cranbrook where I have been able to be involved in other sports like soccer, rowing and track and where my home hill, Kimberley is always welcoming.” Sherret won ski-cross gold at the 2015 FIS Freestyle World Junior Championship, while representing Canada in Valmalenco, Italy. Both Chore and Sherret are expected to pursue World Cup races in 2016-17.

Warriors acquire Sozanski, Odgers in separate deals Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor

Moose Jaw Warriors general manager Alan Millar addressed his team’s 20-year-old situation Wednesday afternoon, acquiring defenceman Matt Sozanski and forward Dakota Odgers in separate transactions. First, the Warriors acquired Odgers — a

5-foot-11, 181-pound native of Spy Hill, Sask. — from the Vancouver Giants in exchange for a conditional eighthround pick at the 2017 WHL Bantam Draft. Next, the Warriors acquired Sozanski — a 6-foot, 175-pound native of Calgary — from the Spokane Chiefs in exchange for a conditional sixth-round pick at the 2017 WHL Ban-

WHL AGM introduces rule changes Continued from page 8 The 2016 WHL pre-season schedule was released Wednesday afternoon, including 68 games across the league from Aug. 30 through Sept. 17. The Kootenay Ice will not host a home exhibition game in 2016. In September 2015, the Ice hosted the Lethbridge Hurricanes at Cranbrook’s Memorial Arena. Instead, the Ice will make their usual trip to Kennewick, Wash., for the Tri-City Americans annual pre-season tournament (Sept. 7 to 10). Joining the Ice in the Tri-City area will be the Everett Silvertips, Spokane Chiefs, Prince George Cougars, Portland Winterhawks, Seattle Thunderbirds and Red Deer Rebels. Following the trip to Kennewick, the Ice will once again participate in the annual Crowsnest Pass Thunder Challenge (Sept. 15 to 17), along with the Lethbridge Hurricanes and Calgary

Hitmen. Finally, the WHL Board of Governors re-elected Bruce Hamilton of the Kelowna Rockets as WHL Chairman of the Board. He was re-elected on a twoyear term Tuesday and has served in the position from 1998 through 2004 and now since 2008. Brent Sutter of the Red Deer Rebels and Russ Farwell of the Seattle Thunderbirds were also re-elected to represent the WHL’s Central and U.S. Divisions, respectively, on the WHL Executive Committee. Ron Toigo of the Vancovuer Giants and Gord Broda of the Prince Albert Raiders represent the B.C. and East Divisions, respectively. Next up on the Western Hockey League calendar is the 2016 CHL Import Draft where the Kootenay Ice hold the first-overall selection. The CHL Import Draft is slated for Tuesday, June 28.

tam Draft. “We felt that both players complimented our core group very well and they filled needs that we wanted to take care of in the off-season,” Millar told Lukas Punkari of the Moose Jaw Times-Herald. “We wanted a veteran guy up front that plays hard and an experienced, puck-moving defenceman that shoots left.” In addition to Sozanski and Odgers, the Warriors already carry 1996-born defenceman Josh Thrower, while captain Brayden Point is expected to turn pro, defenceman Patrik Maier is returning to Europe and Jesse Shynkaruk is not expected to return to the club. Odgers posted eight goals and 14 points, along with 91 penalty

minutes through 72 games with the Giants in 2015-16. Over 195 career WHL games, the former second-round pick of the Swift Current Broncos has accrued 14 goals and 28 points, along with 279 penalty minutes. Sozanski registered three goals and 21 points over 62 games with the Chiefs during the 2015-16 campaign. In 144 career WHL games he has collected three goals and 25 points.

National Aboriginal Day celebrating 20th year Canada will celebrate contributions of Indigenous Peoples on Tuesday, June 21

Proud to recognize June 21, 2016

Taylor Rocc a Townsman Staff

The birth of National Aboriginal Day didn’t come overnight, but now Canada’s celebration of vibrant Indigenous cultures and traditions is marking 20 years of celebrating contributions of First Nations people.

In 1982, the former National Indian Brotherhood — now known as the Assembly of First Nations — lobbied the federal government for the creation of National Aboriginal Solidarity Day to be celebrated each year on June 21. Finally, in 1995, the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples put

forth a recommendation to designate June 21 as a day in celebration of National Aboriginal Day. During that same year, the Sacred Assembly — a national conference of Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people chaired by Elijah Harper — put forth a call for a national holiday to celebrate contributions from First Nations, Inuit and Métis people to the country. In 1996, Roméo LeBlanc, then Governor General of Canada, put forth a proclamation declaring June 21 of each year to be recognized and celebrated as National Aboriginal Day. The days surrounding June 21 have long been a time of significance for Indigenous Peoples due to the summer solstice — the longest day of the year —

falling on or near June 21. In 2001, the National Aboriginal Day Act was passed by members of the 14th Legislative Assembly of the Northwest Territories. This decision made the territory the first jurisdiction in the country to recognize

National Aboriginal Day as a formal statutory holiday. The Canadian Constitution recognizes First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples as the three groups of Aboriginal peoples, or Indigenous Peoples. Though each of the three groups share many similarities, all have their own longstanding and unique

heritage, languages, cultural practices and spiritual beliefs. Now in its 20th year, National Aboriginal Day is part of a series of “Celebrate Canada” days, including the National Holiday of Quebec (June 24), Canadian Multiculturalism Day (June 27) and Canada Day (July 1). All Government of Canada departments support National Aboriginal Day, while Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada (INAC) and Canadian Heritage work to promote the celebration. INAC provides resources and ideas for events throughout the nation, while Canadian Heritage supplies funding opportunities to help execute the festivities.

NEWS Bus locator, security video coming to BC Transit Tom Fletcher Black Press

The federal government’s transit funding commitment comes with $90 million for BC Transit equipment, including a smartphone locator for buses and video cameras to protect drivers and passengers. The funds announced by Prime Minister Justin

Trudeau in Vancouver Thursday will speed up acquisition of new buses and allow construction of maintenance and operations yards around the province, B.C. Transportation Minister Todd Stone said. A pilot project with security cameras aboard buses in Victoria and Kamloops has been successful and is ex-

pected to be rolled out across the BC Transit. “People know they’re on camera,” Stone said. “For the amount of time it’s been in use in these pilot locations, it’s been very clear it’s helped reduce the number of incidents between drivers and passengers.” Most of the money will go to new buses and bus yards,

in locations to be announced in the next few months. That will include buses running on compressed natural gas, and fuelling stations for them. “Most of what we had hoped to get done over the next seven to 10 years, we’re going to be able to get done in the next two to three years,” Stone said. A popular feature for bus

riders that has been tested in Metro Vancouver is the bus locator application for smartphones, which uses GPS to show how many minutes away the bus is from a stop. It’s handy in bad weather, allowing riders to take shelter until the bus arrives. “That’s something we’ve had lots of requests from Kamloops, Prince George,

Kelowna and Victoria transit systems,” Stone said. “It’s pricy, but with these federal funds and our ability to fully leverage every federal dollar, that’s the kind of technology we’re able to invest in.” Most of the $900 million federal share announced by Trudeau and Premier Christy Clark goes toward transit expansion in Metro Vancouver.

This continent-wide program aims to monitor bat species distributions and relative abundance over time. This information is particularly important in B.C. since White Nose Syndrome, the disease that is decimating bat populations in the eastern part of the continent, was recently confirmed in Washington and is expected to arrive in British Columbia soon. “By monitoring populations this year, we will have baseline data before White Nose Syndrome reaches our province, if it hasn’t already” said Dr. Cori Lausen, Bat Specialist with Wildlife Conservation Society Canada. “This annual monitoring will better allow us to understand the impact of this disease as it spreads to our bats in B.C.” Using the North American protocols, this program samples 10 km by 10 km grid cells using bat detectors, acoustic devices that record the echolocation calls of bats. Bat detectors record the bat calls on a compact flash or SD card so the images of the calls can be seen using special software and the bat species can be identified. Up to four bat detectors are put into each grid cell and left for a week to record bat calls. In addition, two driving transects are conducted using a

$ bat detector and a microphone attached to the roof of a car. “It’s our form of a bat mobile” says Juliet Craig who is coordinating NABat in BC. “We drive at 30 km an hour down a road in one direction and listen in on the echolocation calls through the bat detector, which brings them down to a frequency we can hear. Then it’s like opening a present when we download them to the computer to find out which species were flying by.” Funded by the Columbia Basin Trust and Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation, the B.C. team of bat researchers will be sampling at least 14 grid ‡

June is a busy month, with Seniors Week being June 5-11 and World Elder Abuse Day, designated by the United Nations, on June 15. We often lose track of all the designated days, for

all the worthy causes, but recognizing our older citizens should be a priority. The world we have in is a result of their hard work. And while it is not a perfect world it certainly is better than

many other places. There is always room and hope for improvement and we hope celebrating these “Seniors” days will usher in new beginnings and directions for the future. The Ministry of

friend and sadly, elder abuse often goes unreported. Seniors over 85 years of age are the fastest growing age group in Canada. There are currently 645,000 seniors over 85 in Canada, and that is projected to reach 1.28 million by 2031. That will be a 98 per cent increase over the next 20 years. In the Cranbrook and Kimberley areas, social, community and health service organizations, government agencies, community minded individuals, local business and seniors have come together to increase awareness, monitoring and to provide support to seniors, their caregivers and other vulnerable adults. The new Seniors in Partnerships Committee operating under the United Way East Kootenay, will be hiring a “Navigator” to help and assist seniors find help and refer them to the services they need. The Cranbrook CRN (Community Response Networks), CARP, (Canadian Association of Retired Persons), COSCO (Council of Senior Citizen Organizations), United Way East Kootenay, Joseph Creek Family Council and Better at Home Programs are the founding members of this new community

endeavour. The hope is to expand and include all agencies and interested individuals with a commitment to helping and improving services to seniors and their caregivers. The Committee will provide education and support to the community to build awareness and capacity to meet the growing needs of this population and the challenges to our health care system. We will seek efficiencies and coordination of services and money to maximize the impact in our community. The SiPs Committee is holding a general information session on June 20 at the Cranbrook Seniors Center at 1:30 p.m. and will be sponsoring a Seniors’ wellness expo on October 1 this year at the Heritage Inn. Other events and undertakings will be determined by the membership, which you are invited to become part of. Seniors in Partnership plans to highlight the need for prevention and education activities that will allow seniors and vulnerable adults in our community to live safely and with dignity. Our plan is to honour and celebrate those who built our community and to assist them to remain active and vibrant.

Children and Self-Defence Training Joel Huncar

eaching children is the backbone of most successful commercial martial arts studios. This is a great thing because, through martial arts training under the right instructor and in the right environment, children can excel. They can build confidence, stay active and healthy, learn life skills and learn to appreciate other cultures. Also martial arts training usually instills discipline and self-control in most students. Martial arts training as a whole is very positive for most children. Despite all these benefits, there is one problem that can be quite common in many martial arts dojos. This is giving children a false sense of their ability to defend themselves against an adult. Too many instructors never actually tell children that their training will not in any way make them capable of beating an adult. They let the student come to their own conclusion and never bring this up. Or even worse, a few martial arts instructors tell students that size doesn’t matter and let them believe their techniques will overcome any and all opponents. While this may be great for Hollywood action movies and comedies, it simply isn’t true in real life. Small children lack the physical strength to overcome even a small adult through punching and kicking. No matter how skilled they are, a small child could not knock down most adults or even do much more than annoy them with strikes. The idea of a 60pound child out-grappling a full-grown man is ridiculous. If an instructor’s goal is to keep children safe, he or she has to do more than simply teach children fighting skills. For self-defence children first of all need to understand healthy boundaries between them and adults; this includes touching and personal space. Knowing how to walk across the street and to be aware of traffic is not enough, a self-defence

Submitted

If you are going to enroll your children in a martial arts program make sure the instructor is honest and teaches them martial arts with proper caveats and guidelines. coach will teach children to be alert to potential dangers. Children of all ages need to know that, if something does happen, being loud and attracting attention is their best defence. They need to be taught to shout the right things such as “Help he’s not my dad! Help, Stranger!” Teaching children that the best thing is to get other adults’ attention to a bad situation is way more important than being able to land a mean spinning crescent kick. Teaching boundaries and personal space may not be the subject for general martial arts classes but special programs should be offered for parents who are interested in enrolling their children. Teaching about the dangers of secret-keeping and encouraging them to speak out if someone is making them uncomfortable with how they are treating them is also very important in a chil-

dren’s safety program. Also, instructors should talk about who is in the child’s inner circle and who is someone who is an acquaintance. “Who do you know and who do you kind of know?” is how it can be explained. These are the real skills that help keep children safe from real danger. A good jab cross is great for a child dealing with

a school yard bully but keeping kids safe from adults requires a completely different mindset. Don’t get me wrong — there are more than a few occasions a child

has used a surprise punch or kick to break away from a bad guy and get safe. The physical should not be ignored but the reality of the physical differences from a child and a man also should not be ignored. Also when it comes to getting physical, teach children to make it hard to be forced into a vehicle. Teach them to rake and scratch the eyes, to bite as hard as they can, to make as much noise as they can and to grab on to any object that will make it harder for a perpetrator to get them to another location. It is great to teach children martial arts and create healthier, happier and more confident children. However don’t lie to them about their physical capabilities by telling them that they are capable of fighting an adult. If you are going to enroll your children in a martial arts program make sure the instructor is honest and teaches them martial arts with proper caveats and guidelines. That way the instructor is not setting them up to think they can stand and fight a bad guy instead of doing the smart thing and escaping and getting to another adult. Martial arts can truly enrich the lives of those who practice it, especially children. Howev-

Earth breaks heat record again, but not by as much as before Seth Borenstein Associated Press

Earth sizzled to its 13th straight month of record heat in May, but it wasn’t quite as much of an overthe-top scorcher as previous months, federal scientists say. Record May heat, from Alaska to India and especially in the oceans, put the global average temperature at 60.17 degrees Fahrenheit (15.65 degrees Celsius), according to NOAA. That’s 1.57 degrees (.87 degrees Celsius) above the 20th-century average, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. There’s still a good chance that June will break records even as El Nino, one of two main reasons for record heat, dissipates, scientists say. And in the U.S. Southwest temperatures are forecast to dance near 120 degrees later this week into next week. NOAA’s July through September forecast is for hotter-than-average temperatures in the entire United States except a tiny circle of southeastern Texas. “We’re in a new neighbourhood now as far as global temperature,” said Deke Arndt, NOAA’s climate monitoring chief. “We’ve kind of left the previous decade behind.” But it’s not quite as broiling as it has been. May only broke the record - set in 2015 - by .04 degrees. It’s the first time since November that a month wasn’t a full degree Celsius (1.8 degrees Fahrenheit) hotter than the 20th-century average. March and February this year were 2.2 degrees Fahrenheit above normal. “It is slightly off from the kind of unprecedented large global temperatures we’ve seen in the last five to seven months,” Arndt says. Arndt, like nearly every major climate scientist, says the record warm temperatures are due to a strong El Nino placed on top of man-made global warming from heat-trapping gases that come from the burning of fossil fuels. The El Nino has just dissipated and forecasters expect its cooler flip side, La Nina, to kick in soon, which should keep global temperatures a bit lower than they’ve been, but still warmer than 20th-century average, Arndt said But that may not be quite enough to keep 2016 from being the third straight record hot year, Arndt says. That’s because so far, 2016 is averaging 55.5 degrees (13.06 degrees Celsius), which beats the previous January to May record set last year by 0.43 degrees. Jonathan Overpeck, a climate scientist at the University of Arizona, just came back from India and its record-breaking heat wave in time for potential record breaking heat in parts of Arizona. “Thirteen months of consecutive record breaking heat is really unprecedented, and it’s yet another visceral glimpse of what is yet to come as the planet warms up even a lot more,” Overpeck said in an email. “No doubt about it, the planet is warming fast and we’re feeling the impacts.”

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Your unusually high energy might come off as pushy. Sprinkle some quiet or kind remarks into your conversations. Understand that you express exuberance in this way. You are the innate cheerleader of the zodiac; you want to be heard. Tonight: Look beyond the here and now. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You clearly get someone’s message, as his or her words are delivered in a way that you can’t ignore. Let this person know that he or she doesn’t need to go to such extremes to get a response from you. Tonight: Someone might be confused by your desire to break the status quo. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) The time has come to do the things you’ve been putting off. Don’t sit there growling with an annoyed expression -- just do them. Pretend you’re like a friend of yours who is unstoppable. If you succeed, you will clear out your to-dos quickly. Tonight:

Out till the wee hours. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Can you reel in your imagination? It seems to be here, there and everywhere. If you focus on one task or pleasure at a time, you will feel far more complete and satisfied. Make weekend plans; focus on the big picture and worry less about the details. Tonight: Make it an early night. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Tension mounts as you try to absorb two opposing ideas. You could find this process to be more difficult than usual. You’ll get 100 percent into whatever you do, but switching from one extreme to the other is not always easy. Tonight: TGIF forces you to adjust! Thank goodness. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You continue to be unusually incisive and direct. Someone might feel as if you are attacking him or her because of your sharp words and efficient attitude. Fortunately, this will pass by tomorrow, or maybe even earlier. Tonight: You bloom with the arrival of the weekend. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Hagar the Horrible

You need to make an adjustment financially. You could feel pressured to step up to the plate, but might not want to. You will do it anyway. A close loved one can’t seem to thank you enough. You are likely to blush at all the compliments you receive! Tonight: Hang out. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You are known to be quite intense. Don’t allow someone to be evasive and avoid answering a question of yours. You might have to push hard to get the answer you need. Others get nervous when you are like this. Try to be a little mellower. Tonight: Treat a friend. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might feel as if you are being ignored. Others are very busy as the weekend churns its way in. Go off and do whatever you need to relax. You will feel very differently in few hours, when everyone waves goodbye to the week. Tonight: Move forward with a project. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Use the daylight hours to achieve what you feel you must. You no

longer can trust others to get done what you need. Make sure you clear up these details quickly; otherwise, you could fret nearly all weekend long. And for what purpose? Tonight: Feel free to do your thing. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You feel as if you are absorbing a lot of the tension and pressure that is on others. Taking the lead inevitably puts you in this position. The good news is that when you leave for the weekend, you will be free of these concerns. Tonight: Where are your friends? Find them. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Others might think that you live in la-la land, as you are so mellow and full of smiles. Once more, your mind seems to have floated into fantasies and daydreams. It makes you enjoyable to be around, even if you are not present. Tonight: Try to stay in the moment.

Annie’s Mailbox by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar

Dear Annie: What is the best way to deal with someone who is a bully and verbally abusive? My brother-in-law is very demeaning to my sister. He makes cruel remarks about her physical appearance, calls her names and criticizes everything she does if it isn’t exactly what he likes. My sister has been married to this bully for 30 years. I really don’t know how she has put up with him for so long. I try not to spend a lot of time around my brother-in-law, but when I’m with the two of them, I want to defend my sister. I’m just not sure how to go about it. Is it best to ignore a bully’s comments or is there a way to put him in his place? -- A Bully’s Sister-in-Law Dear Sister-in-Law: Please talk to your sister. This is not a bully on the playground, who should be held accountable. This is your sister’s husband and while you want to protect her, you also must respect her wishes. How does this abusive behavior affect her? She could be afraid or she may be ignoring him. After 30 years, she may not be bothered by it. Does she want your help? Would she prefer that you not intervene? Encourage your sister to speak up for herself or ask whether you can counteract her husband’s negative remarks with more positive ones. You can suggest she speak to someone at the National Domestic Abuse Hotline (thehotline.org). But ultimately, this is her marriage and she gets to decide how to handle it. You cannot force her to want something better. You can only be a source of love and support. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Missing Her,” the woman who was looking for a way to lessen her guilt over firing “Maria,” the nanny who had worked for her family for 20 years. Maria’s services are no longer required, now that her youngest child is old enough to drive herself around. Certainly, this employer has paid into Maria’s Social Security taxes over the years, hasn’t she? And also contributed to their state’s unemployment insurance program for her employee? If “Missing Her” can’t “justify the cost” of keeping the woman who dedicated so much of her life tending Missing’s children, she should at least help Maria apply for programs to which she is entitled. This will benefit her ex-employee far more than a farewell gift. -- M. Dear M.: You are not the only one to bring this up. Several readers asked whether “Missing Her” had been paying federal and state taxes as Maria’s employer. We suspect not. A great many people who hire nannies (and housekeepers, etc.), pay them in cash, especially if they are not U.S. citizens. It also is not uncommon for these same employees to prefer cash payments because they, too, do not want to pay taxes. But avoiding taxes on these employees is not only against the law, it does them a grave disservice when they are no longer in your employ and have no benefits. It’s too late to do this retroactively for Maria, but it’s not too late for others who are hiring good people to help them in their homes and who will become part of their families.

British lawmaker dies after shooting attack Associated Press

LONDON - A British lawmaker who campaigned for the country to stay in the European Union was killed Thursday by a gun- and knife-wielding attacker in her small-town constituency, a tragedy that brought the country’s fierce, divisive referendum campaign to a shocked standstill. Jo Cox, a 41-year-old Labour Party legislator who praised the contribution of immigrants to Britain and championed the cause of war-scarred Syrian refugees, was attacked outside a library in Birstall, northern England, after a regular meeting with constituents. Police would not speculate on the attacker’s motive. Witnesses described a man shooting Cox several times and appearing also to stab her as she lay on the pavement. Police said they had arrested a 52-year-old man and were not looking for anyone else. “Our working presumption ... is that this is a lone incident,” said Dee Collins, acting chief constable of West Yorkshire Police. British security officials said the shooting didn’t appear to be related to international terrorism, but domestic terrorism has not been ruled out. Residents identified the suspect to the BBC and other media as Birstall resident Tommy Mair. Neighbors said Mair was a quiet man who did gardening jobs for local people. Violence against British politicians has been rare since Northern Ireland’s late-1990s peace agreement, and figures from all parts of the political spectrum expressed deep shock. Cox is the first serving member of Parliament to be killed in a quarter century, and British politicians of all stripes expressed deep shock. Both the Vote Leave and Britain Stronger in Europe campaigns suspended activity ahead of next week’s vote over whether Britain should remain a part of the 28-member bloc. Prime Minister David Cameron cancelled a speech and rally in Gibraltar and flags on British government buildings were lowered to half mast. It was unclear whether the attack was directly related to the referendum campaign, which has stirred deep passions as Britons argue over their place in Europe, the scale of immigration and the future of their country. The rival sides in the referendum have been canvassing feverishly ahead of what is expected to be a close vote and Cox had been campaigning for the “remain” camp. It wasn’t clear whether Cox had been deliberately targeted. Britain’s Press Association news agency quoted eyewitness Hithem Ben Abdallah as saying Cox got involved in a scuffle between two men in Birstall, a small market town some 200 miles (320 kilometres) north of London. Abdallah said one of the men was fighting with Cox and then a gun went off twice and “she fell between two cars and I came and saw her bleeding” on the ground. Cox spent many years working for aid groups including Oxfam and Save

Jo Cox

the Children, visiting problem-plagued areas including Darfur and Afghanistan. She was elected to the House of Commons in the May 2015 general election and headed Parliament’s Friends of Syria group. She was one of the most outspoken lawmakers on the subject of the Syrian civil war, and was critical of Britain’s reluctance to deepen its military involvement against the Islamic State group as part of efforts to end it. But she abstained last year when Parliament voted to launch air strikes on IS targets in Syria, saying a more wide-ranging solution to the conflict was needed. Immigration has been a flashpoint in the referendum campaign, with many “leave” supporters eager to curb the number of migrants to Britain by leaving the EU, which operates on the principle of free movement of people between member states. Cox was an enthusiastic supporter of the “remain” cause in the referendum, and on Wednesday campaigned on the River Thames in London with her husband and two young children. Her husband, Brendan Cox, posted images on Twitter of the family in an inflatable dinghy, waving a flag supporting continued British EU membership. No serving U.K. member of Parliament has been killed since 1990, when the Irish Republican Army killed Conservative lawmaker Ian Gow with a booby-trap bomb placed under his car outside his English home. A former lawmaker, Donald Kaberry, was injured in an IRA bombing in 1990 and died the next year. In the past two decades, two other British lawmakers have been attacked during their “surgeries,” regular meetings where constituents can present concerns and complaints. A Labour legislator, Stephen Timms, was stabbed in the stomach and injured in May 2010 by a female student radicalized by online sermons from an al-Qaida-linked preacher. In 2000, Liberal Democrat lawmaker Nigel Jones and his aide Andrew Pennington were attacked by a man wielding a sword during such a meeting. Pennington was killed and Jones injured in the attack in Cheltenham, England.
