The Kimbeley Community Band is capping off a very successful summer concert series in the Platzl this Thursday, August 11th, at 7:30. Along with the Band’s usual selection of favourites of all kinds, they’ll be welcoming vocalist Devin Fikus, and members of the Kimberley Pipe Band. Each will be doing three numbers along with the Community Band. There will also be a tribute to the Olympics with the performance of “Mas Que Nada,” Brazil’s other official anthem. The concert will provide another fun and entertaining evening of music from local musicians. There is no admission costs, but the Band is accepting donations to their scholarship fund. Devin Fikus was this year’s winner. If you have any questions, plese give Ian (250-427-8041) or me (250-4276513) a call.

Building permit values up again Year to date permit values are at $7,725,405 C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor

One of the indicators of Kimberley’s economic health that Mayor Don McCor-

mick has pointed to is the rising value of building permits in the City in the past two years. That trend is continuing as January to July numbers are stronger than they were in 2015, which was considered a very good year.

So far in 2016, the value of 99 permits issued is $7,725,405. That includes 19 new single family dwellings with a value of $6,348,000. In 2015, there were 114 permits issued for a total value of $6,322,500. In both 2014 and 2013 values were at about $3.6 million.

Council says no to KIJHL travel fund C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor

Mayor and Council of 100 Mile House have put forward a proposal that municipalities with a KIJHL hockey franchise establish a reserve fund to assist teams in travelling to out of province hockey events, specifi-

cally the Western Junior B Championship Keystone Cup. The 100 Mile House Wranglers won the Keystone Cup in Regina this year after defeating the Kimberley Dynamiters for the KIJHL championship. The 100 Mile House Mayor sent out letters to all municipalities with a franchise, including

Kimberley, asking if there was interest in establishing a fund and suggesting a contribution of $500 per year. Council thought the amount would not be burdensome to any community and pooled together would help considerably with expenses for the league champion. While it is true that travel is a

major expense for a KIJHL team even during the regular season, and making the playoffs means travelling further afield, Kimberley Council did not have an appetite for taxpayers supporting a hockey franchise. The City does have a fund for requests for travel assistance on an individual basis.

The provincial government is considering removing a deadline set for January 1, 2017, that would have allowed the Jumbo Glacier Mountain Resort Municipality a seat at the Regional District board table. According to a letter written by Peter Fassbender, the Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development, the ministry is looking at removing the timeline reference from a legal document called a Letters Patent. However, JGMRM could still get a seat at the RDEK board table the year after the taxable value of the land surpasses $30 million. See JUMBO, page 3

RCMP recover stolen vehicle and property Two suspects arrested

FOR THE BULLETIN

Early Tuesday morning the Cranbrook RCMP received a complaint of a suspicious vehicle in the Wycliffe area. Police investigates and found the vehicle with two occupants, a man and woman, sleeping inside. Upon further investigation it was determined that the vehicle and a number of items in it were stolen out of Alberta. The items included a number of firearms, one of which was loaded. The man and woman, both from Alberta, were taken into custody without incident and a number of charges are being considered at this time.

Police continue to investigate the incident. “Reports of suspicious vehicles can often lead to other investigations such as this,” Cranbrook RCMP said in a press release. “Calls from the public to the police are always appreciated when something out of place is observed in their neighborhood” The RCMP would also like to remind the public to keep their property out of sight and secure from thieves, to always record serial numbers, make, model, color of your belongings and keep those records in a safe place at home. Good record keeping can greatly assist police with retrieving and returning stolen property to the rightful owners.

Be safe around dams, Hydro urges FOR THE TOWNSMAN

BC Hydro is reminding East Kootenay residents to play it safe around dams and reservoirs this summer. On two occasions on July 26, workers performing spill tests at Aberfeldie Dam on the Bull River, 35 kilometres southeast of Cranbrook, noticed members of the public fishing and exploring in the canyon just downstream of the dam’s spillway. The groups included children. At the time, workers were pre-

paring to conduct a free crest spill test, which times how quickly the reservoir rises after generators have been switched off for a short period. B.C.’s waterways can be an enjoyable recreation destination, provided certain common sense safety precautions are observed around BC Hydro property. Water in the Bull River is used to produce electricity and river levels can rise or fall significantly in a short period of time. It is important that the public be aware

of the potential dangers. To keep you and your friends and family safe from the risks and hazards near our dams and reservoirs, watch for safety signs and barriers. Not all areas are safe to access. Avoid crossing booms, barriers, and fences, and heed warning signs. BC Hydro wants you to enjoy the waterways and asks everyone to make safety a priority.

Music & painting fill Thursday & Friday at Kaleidoscope MIKE REDFERN

‘On the cusp of modern and traditional music‘ is how the Breakwater band from Nelson describes itself. This relatively new grouping of musicians plays Celtic, classical, jazz, world and popular crossover music, including remixes of movie & TV soundtracks, in an entertaining and energetic way and, according to the Nelson Star, “has developed a reputation for entertaining audience beyond expectation.” Breakwater is coming to the Kimberley Kaleidoscope festival for an acoustic concert at Studio 64 on Thursday, August 11, beginning at 8 p.m. This is the band’s second appearance at this venue, having impressed audiences here and in Cranbrook during the band’s spring tour of the Kootenays in March. Jeff Faragher, well known as a classical cellist who is a soloist, conductor, and musical director of the Sympho-

ny of the Kootenays, assembled this group of talented musicians which includes Aurora Smith from Kaslo on fiddle and vocals, and Rob Fahie, originally from Ottawa and now living in Nelson, on upright bass, with Nelson percussionist Ben Johnson joining the band on tour. While Faragher’s impressive CV includes jazz and classical performances across North America and Europe, Aurora Smith’s excellent reputation as a classical violinist and old tyme fiddler has been made close to home. Rob Fahie, however, has played jazz and classical upright bass internationally, appearing at some of North America’s most prestigious jazz clubs and at Carnegie Hall and The Kennedy Centre while Ben Johnson has performed as guitarist and percussionist at local festivals including Starbelly Jam and Kaslo Jazz Fest. It should be a lively, danceable concert Thursday night. Bar service will be avail-

Man pleads not guilty in killing of Washington state couple Victim Monique Patenaude once lived in Kimberley THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

EVERETT, Wash. A man pleaded not guilty Monday after prosecutors said he killed a rural Washington state couple and buried their remains. John Blaine Reed, 54, was arraigned in Everett and entered the pleas on two counts of aggravated murder and one count of unlawful possession of a firearm. Former Kimberley, British Columbia resident Monique Patenaude, 46, and Pat-

rick Shunn, 45, were shot April 11 near Oso, a small community northeast of Seattle that was the site of the nation’s worst landslide disaster in 2014. Reed is accused of killing Patenaude and Shunn over a long-standing property feud. Authorities have said Reed was a former neighbour who shared a driveway with the couple. After the slayings, Reed fled to Mexico with his 49-year-old brother Tony Reed with money and a vehicle from their parents, according to prosecutors. More than two months later, Mexican authorities arrested John Reed and turned him over to authori-

ties in Arizona. He returned to Snohomish County Friday and was booked into jail. He is being held without bail. Tony Reed previously turned himself in and led detectives to the couple’s gravesite in the woods near their home. He has pleaded guilty to two counts of rendering criminal assistance for helping hide the bodies. Their mother, 77-year-old Faye Reed, pleaded not guilty on Friday to rendering criminal assistance. Their father, 81-year-old Clyde Reed, asked to delay his hearing on the same charge for another two weeks so he can hire his own attorney.

Jumbo an ongoing issue for 20 years From Page 1 “At that point, the owners of improvements at JGMRM would be contributing to regional services through taxation to a similar degree as small municipalities elsewhere, and sufficient investment in infrastructure would be a reliable predictor of the arrival of electors,” reads Fassbender’s letter. Any decision to amend the Letters Patent terms must come from the Liberal government Cabinet. While the letter was well received by Invermere Gerry Taft, a vocal opponent of JGMRM, he felt it didn’t go far enough, and put forward a motion to send another letter asking the provincial government for a sunset clause on the issue — a motion that was ultimately defeated. “How long do you leave something moving

if you’ve removed any time commitments on a seat at this table?” said Taft. “You’ve removed any time commitments on a seat at this table, you’ve said they’re not going to get a vote until they have $30 million of assessed value. “So is there a limit? When does that happen? Or is there a point in time where you just leave it for 20 years?” Taft also took issue with the $30 million assessed value requirement. “From a philosophical point of view, I don’t agree that assessment should get you a vote at the table. For $30 million of assessment, I think Teck Coal could probably have a lot of seats at this table, or whatever example you want to use, so I don’t think tax assessment alone should mean anybody, entity, person, community, should

have a seat at the table.” The JGMRM was incorporated in 2012 by a provincial Order In Council through the Letters Patent document, with provisions that the municipality would be given a seat at the RDEK table in January 2017, or the year after the taxable value of the land surpasses $30 million. The issue of building an all-year ski resort on Jumbo Glacier has been ongoing for more than 20 years. Currently, the project is at a standstill after being ruled ‘not substantially started’ by the Ministry of Environment last June, which resulted in a Environmental Assessment Certificate (EAC) expiring. Should the proponents—Glacier Resorts Ltd.—wish to continue, they must go obtain a new EAC. In addition to the de-

cision from the provincial government, the Ktunaxa Nation Council are taking the provincial government to the Supreme Court of Canada over a decision to approve a Master Development Plan in March 2012. The B.C. Supreme Court ruled that the province had adequately consulted with the Ktunaxa Nation in and an Appeal Court ruling upheld that decision in August 2015. Now, the Supreme Court of Canada has agreed to hear the Ktunaxa’s case, which centres on a challenge to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which argues that the approval of the Jumbo’s master development plan is a violation of their Charter right to freedom of religion. The Supreme Court will hear the case sometime in 2017.

OWL specializes in raptor rescues BARRY COULTER

A young bald eagle took his first flight out of the nest a few weeks ago and promptly crash-landed in a local lake. Two fishers hauled him into their boat and local OWL Rehab volunteers Sioux Browning and John Bradshaw sent him to the Orphaned Wildlife Rehabilitation facility in Delta. OWL fattened him up and gave him some time in the flight cages to get better at flying. He sent him back to Cranbrook for re-release. Browning said that ordinarily he would be let go right where he was found, but as a newly independent juvenile, his parents would chase him out of their territory as soon as he was ready. So the young eagle was released on the grassy, treed bench land west of the airport, close to the rivers and

Horned Owl that was rescued and sent on to O.W.L. via Browning and Bradshaw in the spring, has a new lease of life as an ambassador bird. Opa (“Grandfather” — named by the woman in Creston who rescued him off the side of the highway, had two broken wings when he arrived at O.W.L., neither of which could be set by surgery. The original diagnosis was that Opa was going to have to be put down, but staff but his wings instead, so he could hop around for a few months. Browning said Opa’s wings have since set and Opa can fly, now but not well enough to be re-released into the wild. O.W.L. put him to foster three orphaned Great Horned owlets, and he will henceforth serve as an ambassador bird and foster parent for O.W.L. One of the facility’s current Great Horned Owl ambassador birds — Blinky — has been with them since the 1980s and is too elderly for public appearances any more. So Opa will take over from old Blinky. For more information on the Orphaned Wildlife Rehabilitation Society (O.W.L.), go to www.owlcanada.org.

It happened this week in Cranbrook For the Week of August 7-13 Dave Humphrey Items compiled from the archived newspapers held at the Cranbrook History Centre Archives

1905 Hot ball game … On Sunday afternoon at 5 p. m. the baseball nines of the Standard and Adolph Lumber companies met in an exciting struggle for supremacy and a valuable silver cup, donated by Mr. F. W. Adolph. The game was the outcome of the summer’s rivalry between the two camps and the feeling ran high. Every man was able to attend, including the managers of the Adolph company, Mr. F. W. Adolph and W. H. Griffiths, as also were all the ladies of the Junction. A broad stretch of prairie above the Standard camp afforded as fine a ground as can be found in British Columbia. The game itself was a magnificent one from a spectators’, and also a baseball fiends’ standpoints and the opinion is expressed that the victors would hold their own with any team in the Kootenays The game was called at 5 p. m. sharp, Mr. Wm. Oliver acting as umpire. While his decisions were absolutely impartial, still feeling ran so high that he was several times the center of a threatening and pugnacious group. Six innings were played replete with fast and clever plays, the Adolphs winning by four to one. They had their batting eye with them and lit on the ball for 3 runs in the first innings, while the Standards were shut out four successive innings, though the bases were full several times. Only the perfect work of the Victors prevented a score. Fish story … R. Joyce reports a fine catch of trout in the Kootenay Saturday. Twenty-six trout! Thirty-five pounds! Lady barber … Moyie has a lady barber. Miss Ida Lindell, of Spokane, is holding a position in Joe Baker’s shop on Victoria Street. Put a stop to this … A well-known citizen of Cranbrook made a vigorous protest to the Herald this week against permitting people of a shady character to occupy houses in the respectable part of the town. Within the last month two or three different families have been aroused in the night by drunken individuals who were searching for these shady resorts. There is surely some way of stopping this sort of a thing. The fire brigade has strenuous time Friday evening ... Last Friday evening about 7 o’clock an alarm of fire was turned in from the C. P. R. station, and within a few minutes the volunteer company had a stream of water in action. The fire was in one of the office rooms on the ground floor that had been vacated for repairs, and it is supposed that some cotton that had been placed on the ceiling to prevent the loose plastering from falling, had been ignited by an exposed electric light wire. Some of the railway employees at the station had a hose connected very quickly to the tap used to furnish water to the passenger trains, and between this and and the local brigade the flames were very soon extinguished. After Chief Pink and Assistant Chief Bradley were satisfied there was no more danger the hose was robed up on the reel and taken back to the fire house. The brigade had hardly gotten there before another alarm came in from the hill and one of the residences was on fire. In a flash that crowd of willing chaps were out of the house with the reel and on the jump of the new scene of disaster. It surely looked dangerous, as a big blaze could be seen leaping up in the midst of the best houses. Fortunately it was only a large bush heap, but still seemed close to be dangerous, and the fire boys turned a steam on the blaze and soon had the fire extinguished.

FACTS You Need to Know About…

BC Hydro Rates...

With

MLA,

Big news of 1906 — the San Francisco Earthquake. Pictured here: looking toward the fire on Sacramento Street (Wikipedia). On the grapevine … It is rumored that a well-known tonsorial artist and a popular young Cranbrook lady are about to depart this single life of blessedness. Ouch! … Last Monday night Engineer Wardman was seriously injured in the yards at Lethbridge by being struck on the head while leaning out of his cab window. He was backing his engine down to get water and a freight car that had been pushed in on a side track was left too near the other track and caught Mr. Wardman. The jaw on both sides was broken and his head and face badly bruised. He was brought to Cranbrook Wednesday morning and taken to the St. Eugene hospital where he is doing nicely. It was a narrow escape and might have easily resulted fatally. School house needed … One of the things Marysville lacks is a suitable school house. We need one badly and if parents of children of school age here are to comply with the law in this respect they must have a larger building at once. Immediate action on the part of the local government is essential. The building used last season for such purposes was built and paid for by a few public-spirited citizens and it was a credit to their loyalty to their children’s interests, but unless a larger building is forthcoming right away the old one will stand as a monument to the incapacity of the local government and a disgrace to the supporters of the same in this district, for upon those who direct the administration of such affairs lies the responsibility. Between thirty and forty of Marysville’s children are in need of a school house right away. Will they get it? We are paying our share of the revenue. All we ask for is a square deal. Fighting mad … The Slavonians upon the hill had a big time at a christening last Sunday. The affair ended in a big drunk and a free for all fight between the two religious factions. The chief fight centered around two married couples. Each woman attacked her rival’s husband and one used a club quite effectively. Later the men got at each other but the greater damage was done by the women. The police were summoned and the disturbance was quelled. The next morning charges and counter-charges galore were laid by members of each faction and all the lawyers in the city have been retained. Sixty-three witnesses have been summoned and at the usual rate these will require a month or two to give their evidence. Some difficulty was experienced yesterday in securing an interpreter. 1906 Not fair game … On Monday three mountain sheep, one ram and two ewes, were seen in lumber yards at the Fernie

Lumber company. M. Berrigan, the blacksmith at the mill, got his rifle, laid the ram low with a single shot. The next day he paid a fine and the sheep was confiscated by the government. Mr. Berrigan probably enjoys the distinction of being the only man who ever killed a mountain sheep in a lumber yard. These animals are remarkably shy and are rarely got by hunters after days of tramping. Tenders for sidewalks ... Tenders will be received up to 12 o’clock noon, Monday, August 13, 1906, for a ten foot sidewalk on the south side of Baker street, from Rogers’ corner to the west side of Queens Hotel. Specifications: Planks, to be dressed on one side, and to be 2 x 8”. Specifications can be seen at the office of the city clerk. C. H. Prest, City Clerk. New firm in Cranbrook ... The Cranbrook Trading company is the newest addition to Cranbrook’s business circles, and within a few days the firm will throw their doors open to the public with a full stock of farm implements, trucks, carriages, sleighs, harness, flour and feed. The headquarters of the firm will be in the new two-storey building in course of erection next to Dezall Bros, blacksmith shop, and they will be in a position to supply complete outfits for all manner of ranching, farming, logging, etc. The store will be under the personal management of Mr. J. F. Bridges, and this alone is an assurance of success. Frisco earthquake ... At the opera house Friday, August 10. Bert Martin, the moving picture expert, will present Frisco before and after the quake in moving pictures — a beautiful panoramic view of Frisco before the quake, showing Union square crowded with people; Palace hotel, Call building; Baptist church; Cliff house, theatres, etc.; pictures showing 25 miles of the burned district with all prominent places carefully indicated. These pictures are genuine, authentic. Up-to-date illustrated songs. The Great Train Robbery, two hours of pictures. An entire change of programme Saturday night. Everyone goes to hear the songs and see the beautiful pictures. Admission, any part of the house, 50 cents, Children 15 cents. An unfortunate accident ... On Monday last while a number of people who were camping at Sirdar were en route between Sirdar and Creston with a hand car, the handcar was struck by an engine. Mrs. J. R. McNab of Cranbrook, sustaining severe injuries, one limb being broken. Mrs. T. A. Corey and little child were also severely shaken up and badly bruised. The injured parties were brought to Cranbrook and placed in St. Eugene hospital, where they are doing as nicely as can be expected.

Bill Bennett In 2013 Hydro announced a 10 year rates plan that includes annual increases that will help pay for the $2 billion annual investment that is necessary to restore the system’s aging assets and ensure the reliability we all are accustomed to.

On July 28, 2016, Hydro ﬁled its Revenue Requirements Application with the BCUC that shows the utility will stay on that 10 year plan, even though some major customers such as mines and pulp mills are using less electricity than forecast and revenue is down.

In order to stay to the 10 year plan commitment and maintain the 3rd lowest residential rates in North America, Hydro has worked hard to reduce its costs of operation, to defer spending and to ﬁnd innovative ways to deliver programs differently. Almost 100% of the electricity generated in BC is clean & renewable.

The rise and fall of Trump

seems week after week journalists and commentators are writing about the U.S. election. Truth is, it’s an easy topic to riff on. Everybody’s got an opinion. The presidential election has been two years in the running, but really, the Republican Party began campaigning the day after they lost to Obama in 2012. Now, less than 100 days away, the Americans are faced with two difficult choices. And yes, it is difficult, because both candidates — Hillary Clinton for the Democrats, and Donald Trump for the Republicans — carry significant baggage. The option of voting for two unpalatable candidates in an American election is nothing new, but this cycle has been an aberration from years past. Clinton has lived a life in the public eye both as the First Lady to former President Bill Clinton, and has also served in public office in the Senate, and as Secretary of State. Over her tenure in politics, controversies — as they usually do in the life of almost every politician — flare up, notably using a personal email account on a private server while Secretary of State, her connections to Wall Street and conflicts of interests with the Clinton Foundation during her time as a government official. However, the media coverage of the election has been dominated by Trump, who was able to capture the GOP nomination and become the Republican presidential candidate. It was a bizarre primary process that

started on the very first day he announced his intention to run, when he unveiled his plan to build a wall along the southern border, referring to Mexican immigrants as ‘rapists.’ In any other election cycle, with any other candidate, those comments, which at the time sounded off-the-cuff spontaneous, would’ve immediately sunk the campaign. Since those remarks, Trump has invited controversy seemingly almost every time he speaks, Trevor whether it’s his call on a ban Crawley for Muslims entering the U.S., his assertion that he could shoot someone publicly and still have voters support him, and — just recently — verbally disparaging the parents of a Muslim U.S. Army soldier who died in Iraq. And yet, despite all the ways in which he’s put his foot in his mouth, he still ended up being voted the Republican nominee once the primary process concluded at the GOP convention in July. Why? Who would vote for someone who seemingly shoots from the hip without any kind of tact, poise and prudence? The GOP convention was a fascinating study of mob behaviour and demagoguery, with the crowd getting riled up chanting ‘lock her up’ in reference to Clinton’s email scandal, followed by Trump himself giving his keynote address detailing America’s problems and declaring ‘I alone can fix it’. Where is that streak of anger and fear coming from in the American psyche? Is Trump a product of the electorate, or is

the electorate a product of Trump? It’s a disturbing question in the context of how it resonates with voters. Does the Republican base shrug off his bigoted remarks because he’s a reality TV-show candidate? Are voters simply numb to whatever he says, like when a politically zealous relative rants at a Thanksgiving dinnertable? Or maybe Trump’s support comes from the fact that he’s positioned himself as a Washington outsider determined to disrupt the system, something he’s succeeded at marvellously thus far during this election. One of the phrases that repeatedly comes up during a campaign for the White House is that a candidate must be presidential. Say what you will about Hillary Clinton and the policies of the Democratic Party, but Trump is not a presidential figure and a poor representative of American values on the world stage. When the rest of the world hangs on every word spoken by the president, there isn’t a place for any kind of rash and reckless declarations. Neither is there a place for someone who petulantly lashes out at every slight, especially when he or she has access to nuclear weapons. However, the tide of support for Trump is slowly started to ebb; Clinton has opened up a 10-point lead as of press time on Monday, according to CNN. And in less than few months, the circus will be over. Just in time for a new one to begin. Trevor Crawley is a reporter with the Cranbrook Townsman

nearly 2,000 Canadians will die from the disease this year. Brain cancer is the most common cause of cancer death in children aged 0-14 and the second most common cause of cancer death among older adolescents and young adults aged 15-29. Glioblastoma is the most common type of brain cancer in adults and one with an average survival of less than 15 months after diagnosis. Despite the Canadian Cancer Society investing $10 million in the last 5 years in brain cancer research projects across the country, there is still a long way

A low sockeye salmon return year is coming in even lower than forecast, with no commercial or recreational sockeye fisheries on the Fraser and marine areas and only aboriginal fisheries permitted by Canadian and U.S. authorities. The Pacific Salmon Commission met again Tuesday, and downgraded the main summer run estimate to 700,000 fish. Test fishing catches have been tracking below forecast for what was expected to be a low-return year on the four-year sockeye cycle, with the Early Stuart and other runs below expectations. The main summer run was calculated at 992,000 on last week’s test fishing data, down from a pre-season forecast of 1.67 million.

As of Aug. 8, the Fraser River water discharge at Hope was 24 per cent lower than the average for that date, with the temperature at 19.0C, up 1.0C from the average. Those conditions are considered satisfactory for salmon migration. Fisheries and Oceans Canada has begun its spawning escapement assessment programs. “Early Stuart sockeye are in the early stages of spawning and are reported to be in good condition,” the commission says. “There has been steady migration of Chilliwack sockeye into the river and the observed fish are also reported to be in good condition.” Aboriginal food, social and ceremonial fisheries on the Fraser and Canadian marine areas have taken 40,800 sockeye, with no com-

mercial take for aboriginal fisheries. U.S. aboriginal treaty fisheries have taken 900 fish. Federal Fisheries Minister Dominic LeBlanc said Tuesday he is continuing to implement the Cohen Commission, established to study the collapse of the 2009 sockeye run. The 2010 run came in with a record 30 million fish, but the Justice Bruce Cohen’s commission reported a general decline in sockeye runs since 1990 from Washington state up the Central Coast, Skeena, Nass and up to Yukon’s Klukshu and Alaska’s Alsek Rivers. This year the Pacific Salmon Commission noted the effects of a warm North Pacific area called “the blob,” which affected marine food before it dissipated early this year.

PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE - BYLAW 2708 Bylaw Amendment - Miscellaneous/RDEK The Regional District of East Kootenay (RDEK) Board of Directors is considering a housekeeping amendment to the Cranbrook Rural Zoning Bylaw No. 1402, 2001. Housekeeping amendments are carried out to correct errors, update language and move toward consistency between RDEK bylaws. Housekeeping amendments are not meant to introduce major regulatory or policy changes. They are minor amendments that form part of the evolution of zoning bylaws and Official Community Plans. Bylaw No. 2708 will rectify an oversight that occurred when the definition of secondary suites was amended in a previous bylaw amendment. The Cranbrook Rural Zoning bylaw currently identifies detached garages as a possible location for a secondary suite which is not the intent of the regulation. Bylaw No. 2708 will remove the reference to detached garage and ensure that secondary suites within the Cranbrook Rural Zoning bylaw are permitted within single family dwellings only. A public hearing will be held at: Regional District of East Kootenay (Board Room) 19 – 24 Avenue South Cranbrook, BC Wednesday, August 17, 2016 at 4:00 pm The Board has delegated the holding of this hearing to the Directors for Electoral Area C and the City of Cranbrook. If you believe that your interest in property is affected by the proposed Bylaw, you may prior to the hearing: • inspect the Bylaw and supporting information at the RDEK office in Cranbrook from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm Monday through Friday, excluding statutory holidays; • mail, fax or email written submissions to the addresses/numbers shown below; or • present written and/or verbal submissions at the hearing.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Deal with others directly. You might have a lot to share. Someone you deal with on a daily basis could make a difference once you listen to the rationale behind his or her thinking. Finally, you seem to agree! Tonight: Enjoy a leisurely dinner for two. You will be smiling a lot. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Defer to others. Listen to what is being offered; your opinions could transform as a result. Oneon-one relating with those who are close to you and/or are involved with you financially will make all the difference. Tend to this area of your life. Tonight: Opt for closeness. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Pace yourself. Your sunny personality will make all the difference in how you handle a personal matter. Be aware of what is happening with a dear friend. Compliment a partner on his or her ability to understand both sides of an issue. Tonight: Have a long-overdue chat.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You could be unusually resourceful and resilient when handling a problem. You might feel much better than you previously had thought possible. Go within yourself to resolve a conflict between your intellectual side and your emotional side. Tonight: Full of fun and laughter. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Stay centered, and know that many different ideas could float in from many different people. Just because someone’s concepts sound far-fetched does not mean that they don’t have value. Listen to what this person has to say. Tonight: Head home and order some takeout. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Understand what a key person is sharing. Ask questions, especially if you feel as if this person’s words could have an effect on you. You might be up for trying a different approach to a recurring problem. Welcome feedback. Tonight: Speak your mind, but be diplomatic. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You could be over-the-top about what you are doing financially.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You could be exhausted by everything you have to do. Know that you are one of the few people who is capable of handling so much, especially as you tend to deal with diverse interests. Understand what is going on around you. Tonight: Try to speak to someone in a polite manner. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You sense a lot of activity going on around you that you might not be in the loop about. Consider that knowing less ultimately will be to your benefit. You will know what is happening soon enough. You can be just as spontaneous as anyone else. Tonight: Do your own thing. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Zero in on your priorities, and stay on top of a personal matter. You could be in a position to take action on behalf of some-

one else. Use your fine sense of judgment. Check in with several people who might have some strong thoughts about what to do. Tonight: Go for it. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You could be in a position where you will want to change your direction. What you find out in a discussion is likely to make a big difference in your choices. If you are unsure, wait to make a decision until you feel more confident. Tonight: In the whirlwind of living. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Reach out to an expert. You might be looking to broaden your horizons and perhaps even become more educated in a certain discipline. There is no such thing as having too much knowledge. A friend will be very supportive. Tonight: Relax and binge-watch a favorite series. BORN TODAY Actor Antonio Banderas (1960), fashion designer Betsey Johnson (1942), former U.S. President Herbert Hoover (1874)

Not everyone was feeling the Shambha-Love A crazed fan reportedly attacked performer DJ EPROM during this weekend’s Shambhala Music Festival, putting him in a chokehold until fellow artist Zeke Beats could intervene. According to a post on Instagram the raver was on drugs during the attack, in which he repeatedly bunched the DJ and bit him on the skull. Shaken but unhurt, he later posted to Instagram: “Watch out for zombie attacks out there kids”. Nelson Inspector Tom Roy hadn’t heard about the incident when contacted by the Star, and figures organizers successfully managed the situation. Cops have impounded approximately 100 cars since the bacchanal, and are planning to release statistics on the drug and alcohol-related charges that stemmed from it. The festival featured over 300 artists and 400 hours of entertainment at the Salmo River Ranch.

Drones get nod of approval for use in fighting BC wildfires C anadian Press

Drones are about to be added to the fire fighting arsenal of the B.C. Wildfire Service. Spokeswoman Erin Catherall says the service has conducted two seasons of trials and is ready to put the remotely controlled aircraft to work. She says drones have already been an important part of the battle against recent wildfires in northeastern British Columbia because they are cheaper and safer than piloted aircraft. They can also be used at night, when most helicopters and planes are grounded. Catherall says that allows firefighters to identify hot spots for immediate action as soon as the sun rises. The wildfire service also hopes the little aircraft will help with the efficient deployment of planes and crews during critical situations. “They’re able to detect really hard to find hot spots and give co-ordinates that crews can then use to assist with locating and extinguishing the hot spots within the fire perimeter,” says Catherall. Unauthorized drones operated by curious onlookers complicated firefighting efforts at several B.C. wildfires last year because they forced wildfire service helicopters to land rather than risk mid-air collisions.

Dear Annie by Annie Lane

we don’t approve Dear Annie: Our eldest son is getting married in three weeks to a gal who is 13 1/2 years younger (23). She has never been married but has a 4-year-old. She also has bipolar disorder and has left him at least three times. The most recent time was in March. She took off with a co-worker for the coast, halfway across the country. After a couple of weeks, she decided to call our son, and he said he wanted her to come back. I believe that the guy ditched her and she didn’t have anywhere to go. Long story short, she is now pregnant, and her parents are wanting her to marry. As far as our son knows, the baby is his. We all feel that she will continually leave, and we have doubts that the baby is his. Our son was married before and has two children. He asked the eldest, who is 12, to be his best man, but his son said no, as he does not like her. No one on his side likes the gal, and we are wondering whether we need to attend the wedding. My husband says we shouldn’t because it would show support. I told our son we would go but are not in support of the marriage. I feel we should attend only because he is our son. It is a tiny wedding and has been quickly put together. Her parents are doing a barbecue for the reception, but we will not attend that. Our son is a very kindhearted person who helps out everyone. His first wife was from another country and was not good to him. Should we go or stay home? -Reluctant Mother of the Groom Dear Reluctant: Go to your son’s wedding. It’s a regrettable situation, to be sure, but you’d regret it much more if you were not to be there for him. He’s a kindhearted and emotionally vulnerable person, susceptible to other people’s manipulations. As much as you want to express your opposition to his life, if you were not to be around, he’d feel isolated and only fall further into this trap. Keep the door open for him. It’s possible to support him without supporting the partnership. He needs you. Dear Annie: A very close friend has a daughter who got married quickly because of a pregnancy. She and her husband are stable and very happy. I don’t know the modern etiquette but would like to buy them a wedding present, as would a few other close friends. We would like to do this to show love, happiness and joy for them. We don’t want to pick out patterns or anything like that without knowing her tastes. Any suggestions would be welcome. -- Need Assistance in Florida Dear Need Assistance: Cash might not be the most fun gift to pick out, but it’s the one people most like to receive -- especially if they’re new parents. If you’d like to give a more traditional gift, such as something for their home, ask her mother what sorts of kitchenware they might like. Whatever the gift, your thoughtfulness will shine through and the couple will no doubt appreciate it. Dear Annie: I’m responding to the letter from “Meaty Mike.” He needs to embrace his vegan love mate! I’ve been married to a staunch vegetarian for over 33 years, and it’s the best choice I’ve ever made. My diet has become healthier, and I still get my meat. I have a gas grill on the deck outside for my meat meals, which I use even in the winter. And I’ve developed recipes to cook meat without smelling up the house. Meaty Mike’s guilt trip is his own, so he should just own it and move on. -- Vermont Meat Mate Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@creators.com.

Couple indicted for leaving son alone to play Pokemon Go Associated Press

FLORENCE, Ariz. - An Arizona couple accused of leaving their 2-year-old son alone for up to 90 minutes to go play the “Pokemon Go” smartphone game have been indicted by a grand jury. Pinal County prosecutors say 27-year-old Brent Daley and his 26-year-old wife Brianna Daley each are facing one count of child abuse. They were arrested after a neighbour found the boy crying outside the couple’s home in the southeastern Phoenix suburb of San Tan Valley on July 29. Authorities say the child was barefoot and wearing a diaper and a T-shirt. Sheriff’s officials say the Daleys initially told deputies they went to buy gas, but then they said they had gone in search of virtual Pokemon creatures in their neighbourhood. The state Department of Child Services took custody of the child.

Robbers wound man playing Pokeman Go in Ecuador Associated Press

QUITO, Ecuador - Ecuadorean police said Tuesday that robbers shot and seriously wounded a U.S. man as he was playing Pokeman Go in a park in the coastal city of Guayaquil. The victim, Mitchell Cleve Williams, had come to the South American country recently to marry an Ecuadorean woman, police said. He was playing the game at a park Sunday night when two youths approached him and demanded his cellphone. When he resisted, they shot him. The 35-year-old was reported in serious condition at a hospital in Guayaquil. Police said they couldn’t give the man’s hometown and the U.S. Embassy declined to comment.

Billionaire landowner Duke of Westminster dies at 64 Associated Press

LONDON — Gerald Cavendish Grosvenor, the sixth Duke of Westminster and one of Britain’s wealthiest landowners, has died at the age of 64. Grosvenor’s family said he died Tuesday at the Royal Preston Hospital in northwest England after becoming ill at his nearby Abbeystead Estate. The duke’s Grosvenor Estate owns 300 acres (121 hectares) in some of London’s wealthiest areas. His ancestor, Sir Thomas Grosvenor, married heiress Mary Davies and acquired what was then marshland in 1677. Over the generations the family developed the land into two of London’s most affluent neighbourhoods, Mayfair and Belgravia.
