An NDP opposition critic was in Cranbrook to garner support for legislation that would streamline a United Nations declaration on First Nations rights into Canadian law. Romeo Saganash, an MP in Northern Quebec and the opposition critic for Intergovernmental Aboriginal Affairs, gave a presentation to Ktunaxa Nation members out at the Aqam administration office on Tuesday. Saganash, who introduced a

FuN for the whole family!

private member’s bill in April in the House of Commons — Bill 262, the United Nation Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) Act — said his bill would enshrine the rights and freedoms identified in UNDRIP into Canadian law. A member of the Cree First Nation, Saganash was involved with the indigenous groups and representatives that negotiated UNDRIP before it’s adoption in September 2007. “It was a 23-year effort and

the General Assembly called on the member states to fully adopt and implement the declaration over the years,” Saganash said. “Canada eventually endorsed the declaration, and now the next step is to make it into a law, and that’s what my bill is supposed to do.” The bill is also being touted as a vehicle of reconciliation between the First Nations and the government of Canada.

RDEK funds washroom, piers at Idlewild Lake Tre vor Cr awley

Federal funding directed to the RDEK will go towards the installation of public washrooms and piers at Idlewild Park. As part of $500,000 in federal gas tax funding through the Union of British Columbia Municipalities (UBCM), the money was previously announced for the project in July by Area C director Rob Gay. “We talked with the city and felt that this really was an opportunity to modernize the park,” Gay said. “It was

developed many years ago in the ‘70s and it looks it’s age; we haven’t kept up with things. “For example, we don’t have wheelchair-accessible washrooms and we need to have these things.” The funding came available after some prodding by Cranbrook mayor Lee Pratt, who hoped the RDEK would kick in some money towards the project after the city dropped the two-tier recreation fee system.

The Bra Lady Is Coming to Size You Up

Are you tired of feeling saggy, lumpy, pinched or strained? Well you’re not alone. As you’ve probably seen Oprah or read in women’s magazines, over 80 per cent of all women wear the wrong size bra. Here’s where Barb Chapman, the Bra Lady, comes in. Due to the overwhelming response to the previous clinic, Barb Chapman is coming to Cranbrook, TUESDAY/WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13/14 to outfit your with the best possible bra for your body. Chapman said she will be seeing clients on a one-on-one basis, explaining the benefits of good bras and measuring their bodies properly. “Most women just want to find a good-fitting bra that’s not uncomfortable.” Chapman said. “What they don’t realize is that a good support bra is also important for blood circulation and enhanced lymph drainage.” Chapman has over 200 bra sizes available for ordering, ranging from 30AA to 52KK. It’s likely that you’ll fit somewhere between those sizes. She offers these questions for women to ask themselves” • Do you have a drawer full of bras but none that fit comfortably? • Does your bust line “bounce” when you walk while wearing your “everyday” bra? • Do you overflow the cup of your bra? • Do your bra straps slip off your shoulder or dig into your shoulders leaving red and painful marks? • Does your bra ride up in the back because you tighten the straps to give you added support? • Have you ever begun an exercise class only to drop out because your breasts ached from lack of support while jumping or running? If you answer yes to any of these, you are in need of a new bra, and a custom one (jeunique, nutrimetics, colesce, could be the way to go.)

1-800-254-3938

She doesn’t come into town very often so she advises booking as soon as possible. Although Chapman enjoys coming to his area, she is on the look-out for someone to train for or buy the business.

Ktunaxa, Home Depot team up again for Orange Door project Submit ted

The Ktunaxa Nation and Cranbrook Home Depot are again teaming up to raise money for homeless and at risk of homeless people in the Cranbrook area. From September 1 to October 9, every $2 donation at the Cranbrook Home Depot goes to Operation Street Angel through the Orange Door Project. “We’re grateful to have community partners like Home Depot who see the importance of programs like Street Angel in our community,” said Racheal Nicholas, Street Angel Mental Wellness Clinician. “This will be the third year in a row that we have teamed up with Home Depot for the Orange Door Project.

Last year’s fund-raising effort was a resounding success and I know the generosity of the people in the Cranbrook area will make this year an even bigger success.” The Orange Door Project kicked off with a BBQ at Home Depot on September 1 that raised over $450, with all proceeds going to Street Angel. Since 2010, The Ktunaxa Nation’s Operation Street Angel has provided services to homeless and vulnerable populations in the Cranbrook area including hot nutritious meals, nurse practitioner and mental health services, advocacy, employment and justice services. Street Angel is located at 46-17th avenue South in Cranbrook.

NDP opposition critic lauds indigenous rights bill Continued from page 1 Saganash has been touring Canada presenting in various communities and has a groundswell of support from organizations representing nearly one million indigenous peoples. UNDRIP passed with an overwhelming majority in 2007, however, Canada — under the previous Conservative government — voted against the declaration, along with the United States, New Zealand and Australia. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, elected nearly a year ago with a majority Liberal government, has made engagement with First Nations a top priority. Bill 262 would spell out the

rights of indigenous peoples as identified in UNDRIP, which would provide clarity to legal challenges that end up going to the courts. “If you consider all the different court cases we’ve had over the years, the Government of Canada has been an adversary to indigenous peoples in this country throughout the history of this country,” said Saganash. “It’s the only group that’s been subjected to that type of discriminatory treatment in this country, and my bill will clarify what those rights are, what those basic human rights of indigenous peoples are, so we don’t have to fight

CMHA Kootenays marks World Suicide Prevention Day FOR THE TOWNSMAN

CMHA Kootenays will commemorate World Suicide Prevention Day (WSPD) on September 10 by hosting an evening of live streamed music as part of the Mysterious Barricades cross-Canada tour. The event will take place from 7pm to 9pm at the new CMHA Kootenays Connor Stewart Training Centre located at 1000 21st Avenue North – behind the old Canadian Tire location. The event will also include refreshments, snacks, information booth highlighting local programs and services, a candlelight vigil, education and awareness as well as WSPD ribbons. CMHA Kootenays joins people with lived experience of a mental health issue, their families, policy makers, advocates, researchers and others who come together on this day to raise awareness and share strategies to prevent the tragedy of suicide. More than 800,000 people worldwide – including about 4,000 Canadians – die by suicide every year. World Suicide Prevention Day is presented annually by the International Association for Suicide Prevention to spread awareness and break the silence about this issue. This year’s theme, ‘Connect, Communicate, Care’ captures the heart of suicide prevention. CMHA Kootenays is proud to be partnering with the Canadian Association of Suicide Prevention (CASP) in supporting Mysterious Barricades’ cross-country Need help with current events?

concert series for this year’s World Suicide Prevention Day. Founded by Mezza Soprano, Elizabeth Turnbull, whose husband of 27 years died by suicide, this concert series is being held to raise awareness of suicide, suicide prevention and to support those at risk of and impacted by suicide. The series is inspired by French baroque composer François Couperin’s 1717 Les Barricades Mystérieuses (The Mysterious Barricades). With this concert project organizers hope to raise the level of discussion and awareness surrounding the mysterious barricades between mental illness and health, between the darkness of depression and the light of hope, between life and death. From sunrise in St John’s NL to sunset in Victoria BC, thirteen free concerts will flow westward throughout

the day and feature some of Canada’s finest professionally trained artists and performers. CMHA Kootenays will be live streaming the concerts at their September 10th event. CMHA branches across the province, including this one, work daily to share strategies to prevent the tragedy of suicide. CMHA Kootenays provides suicide awareness training such as safeTALK and Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST), Mental Health First Aid, as well CMHA Kootenays offers crisis intervention and prevention services to the local community, such as the East Kootenay Crisis Line. Though not all suicides can be prevented, some strategies can help reduce the risk, such as: • Seeking treatment, care and support for mental health concerns — and building a good relationship with a doc-

ing Centre (1000 21st Avenue North) and will also be hosting an ASIST, a two-day intervention training session on September 15th and 16th, also at its new training centre.

Tornado warnings included M alcolm is a Scot who believes that it is his right and duty to be canny. If he means tight-fisted, then he is canny but, the other day when I encountered him downtown, he looked crest-fallen. “I’ve been conned,” he announced. I bided my time. Malcolm is canny with words too but, eventually, he opened up and we went for a coffee. I paid. It appears that Malcolm allowed a salesman to talk to him. “He looked harmless enough,” said Malcolm, “So I allowed him have his say and he conned me. Me, of all people!” Apparently, the canny salesman represented a company that installs safety equipment like burglar alarms, smoke and carbon monoxide alarms and press buttons for the home-owner to call for help; police, ambulance, fire- department or even the coroner if things get dodgy enough. “I should’ve tossed that rogue right off my property,” Malcolm admitted, “but my son Sean has been pestering me. He thinks I’m going senile.” No comment from me but, “So, what happened?” I dared ask, and purchased some buns to cheer us both up. I got the full treatment when I ventured up to Malcolm’s house the other day. He manages to lower the tone in a pleasant neighbourhood merely by liv-

ing there in solitary squalor and not fussing unduly with his garden. I rang the new front door bell but there was no response so I banged on the door itself and charged in, noting at the same time that there appeared to be a new coded lock on the place. Eventually, Malcolm appeared and looked around suspiciously, probably for a salesman sneaking up on him. I stepped inside. “I see the door-bell that doesn’t Peter work,” I announced. “And I you can’t remember Warland bet the code on the lock.” I was dragged inside and, eventually, offered a beer before the grand tour. “I told that smart-ass salesman that I’d use my usual code,” said Malcolm. I reckoned it would be a combination of his age and I.Q., the second diminishes as the first increases, exponentially. “So how come you got a bum steer?” I asked as I was shown the newly installed smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. “And what’s that?” I pointed to an old smoke detector mounted on the ceiling. “Doesn’t that work?” “The new ones are supposed to switch off the furnace when hell breaks loose.” A snort of derision from Malcolm as we wandered back upstairs and I looked for somewhere to put down my beer bottle. “I still don’t get how you were conned,” I said as we walked up the hallway towards the bedrooms where Malcolm

Letters to the Editor

showed me a shiny new panel, like a TV screen, installed on the wall. Malcolm explained that my face should’ve appeared on that screen when I rang the bell. “Och! It’s Siobhan. She’s fussing about me living here alone. She reckons she’ll come waltzing in here from Lethbridge one day and trip over my rotting corpse.” I tried not to visualize that thought and asked, “Did this hocus pocus include a panic button? Don’t all these fishy deals include a panic button?” Malcolm gave a snort of derision and indicated the boot-lace and button hanging on the top of the panel. “Probably doesn’t work either,” he said. “Supposed to call the police, fire department and ambulance. But I’m not going to press it; the whole kit and Kaboodle‘ll turn up and I’ll look a real Charlie.” Soulfully, Malcolm led me back to the kitchen and I wondered if I’d get a second beer but I was to be out of luck. I was shown a pamphlet which to my baffled mind told me nothing except that, somehow, all the installations in Malcolm’s house would announce the bad news. It said, TORNADO WARNING INCLUDED. “That’ll be handy,” I said, “How much this all cost you?” “Not a penny. I got free installation for having the crap put in immediately that very day and, so far, I’ve not paid a thing!” I had to laugh. “You’ve not been conned,” I said. “You’ve just been your usual canny self.”

Reminiscing

Walt Peacosh and the Nitro Line

To ny D r a n s f e l d

he best hockey player that I saw play in the Red and White hockey jersey of the Kimberley Dynamiters (with the cool Red Dynamite stick with a lit fuse on the front)? Well, that would be Walter “Mex” Peacosh, who played here in Kimberley during the 1960s.. Pico” came to Kimberley after playing a significant role for the Trail Smoke Eaters of 1961, when they won the World Ice Hockey Championships, defeating Russia 5-1. Of course, Mex got lucky when he came to the Kimberley Dynamiters after his time in Trail, hooking up with a terrific centre ice man, in the person of Ken “Cowboy” McTeer, (who hails from Calgary, hence the name “Cowboy”). The hockey gods also smiled upon these two men, when the amazing Les Lilley returned home that season after many years of pro hockey (Vancouver Canucks,, New York Rovers, Long Island Ducks and the Greensboro Generals, among others) to play alongside Peacosh, and McTeer. They were aptly called “The Nitro Line,” and for good reason These fellows became an absolute nightmare for goaltenders in the W.I.H.L. One season, 196566, Walt Peacosh amassed 132 points in 55 games, a record that stood until it was eclipsed by Ron “Spike’ Huston of the Cranbrook Royals. Peacosh, Lilley and McTeer

wreaked havoc on some pretty good defensemen in the Western International Hockey League — Tom Hodges of Spokane comes to mind , along with Harry Smith, John Thompson, Vince Collins and Hugh Hooker from the Nelson Maple Leafs.When the superb Les Lilley retired from the Nitro Line, no problem. In stepped the very very talented Dick “The Bear” Vincent at Right Wing, and the boys never missed a beat. Dickie ended up second all time in goals in the WIHL, with over 425 markers. Back to Walt Peacosh. He had played Junior hockey for the Flin Flon Bombers before playing a game for the New York Rangers, at age of 17 ( a game he can recall nothing about ). Then the Penticton Vees came calling. Mex scored in whatever barn he played in. A time in Spokane for the Comets of the W. H. L. , then a season with the Vancouver Canucks. Walt was then asked to join the 1961 Smoke Eaters before they departed for Europe and the World Championships. Walter ( still called Mex by many) came to Kimberley in 1962 with his wife Alice, and the children Carrie, Rob, Ricky, Yvonne and Debbie (David was (born here in Kimberley ). Now Walt had a funny idiosynrasy, in hockey , he never tied up his skates. The one game I played with him in the winter of 1969, (a game honoring the retirement of the Nitro line), Les had six goals, Walt and Kenny

had one each, and that took care of business for us. I happened to be dressing next to Chi-Chi Peacosh, and I certainly noticed he was not tying up his skates , they were barely on his feet. Doing that enabled Walt to develop his own style, of keeping the opposing players way off balance. Mr. Peacosh recently told me his Trail Smoke Eaters had an exhibition game with the Montreal Canadians in Trail. Mex remembers the Habs passed the puck as hard as the Trail team were shooting the biscuit. I do believe Jean Beliveau broke his leg in the tilt. That game was a bit of a reality check for Pico, just how good the N.H.L players were. Lest I forget, in the summer time, Ken McTeer (centrefield ) and Les Lilley (left field) were two of the best baseball players in the East and West Kootenays (I believe Walt Peacosh played fastball back then, while his line mates enjoyed the game of hardball). That old TV series “Have Gun Will Travel” with Richard Boone? Well, the Walter Peacosh TV series would be called something like “Have Hockey Stick Will Score Wherever I Play,” and he did. A real magician out there on the ice. Sure glad I got to catch his act. A prolific scorer if there ever was one. Walt recently told me that he would have been “ nothing” without Ken McTeer his Center on the Nitro Line.

Save-On Foods, Overwaitea pitch in to MRI campaign For the Townsman

Save on Foods and Overwaitea stores throughout the East Kootenay will come together today, September 7, at East Kootenay Regional Hospital to help EKFH jump start their “MRI: An Image of Health” Campaign to raise $650,000 towards the purchase of a permanent MRI at East Kootenay Regional Hospital. Save on Foods and Overwaitea have generously donated $1.6 million More Rewards points to the EKFH MRI: An Image of Health Campaign. EKFH, Save on Foods and Overwaitea will be hosting a raffle over the next six months where customers will have the chance to win $1 million More Rewards points and be entered into individual store prizes of 100,000 points. Tickets can be purchased at all Save on Foods and Overwaitea stores and EKFH office, $5 for 1, 3 for $12. All proceeds go towards a new permanent MRI at East Kootenay Regional Hospital. “We are thrilled to be a part of the EKFH campaign to bring a permanent MRI to our region by encouraging our customers to support a great cause through our draw for one million More Rewards points,” said Ryan Nesbitt, Store Manager of Overwaitea Foods in Sparwood. “It’s a win-win: customers support a much-needed piece of medical equipment in our community and have a chance to win a million More Rewards points – which can be redeemed for a 60-inch ultra-HD TV, an Apple MacBook, more than $4,000 in More Rewards Travel, and much, much more! With a million More Rewards points, the possibilities are endless – and with a permanent MRI, our neighbours can receive the care they need closer to home.” Currently the East Kootenay region has access to the Mobile MRI unit for one week per month, sharing this unit with Trail and Penticton. The limited access to the Mobile unit has meant long wait times and in many instances patient travel outside the region to access MRI services in Kelowna or Calgary. Patients requiring urgent MRI exams are often the most seriously ill. The permanent MRI will mean quicker exams and results, positively impacting both patients and family during a stressful time. The improved health outcomes of a timely diagnosis truly cannot be measured. “We are very excited to partner with all Save on Foods and Overwaitea stores throughout the East Kootenay with this raffle over the next six months,” said Cassandra Schwarz, EKFH Executive Director. “It is great to see regional support for an MRI that will truly benefit all residents of the East Kootenay.”

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Your ability to get through the seemingly impossible allows you to gain leverage. Financial and emotional ties are up for discussion. Note how flexible others are. Allow your optimism to emerge, and smile through a problem. Everyone will feel better as a result. Tonight: Kick back. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You could be in a situation where change seems to be the best alternative. A significant other might be more flexible and receptive than usual if you approach him or her in a caring way. Disagreements have emerged before, and you have found solutions. Tonight: Be a duo. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Others want to be in control, but you have a good grasp on a personal matter and how it would be best handled. Open up to new beginnings with a key person. You could be surprised by what emerges in a discussion.

Tonight: Be open to joining a last-minute get-together. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Your creativity has an effect on a key issue involving a loved one. Be willing to give this person space, as he or she seems to be transforming. Your optimistic style wins over many different people, even those whom you barely know. Tonight: Join a friend early on. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Your resourcefulness helps you to clear up quite a few problems. A creative suggestion will be well-received. Someone loves to share news with you, and he or she will demonstrate that quality more and more. Use care with your finances. Tonight: Let your hair down. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your words carry weight, so try not to exaggerate or add too much inflection. Your caring might be very important to someone in your personal life. There might be tension between you, but it can dissolve easily. If you feel lucky, buy a lottery ticket. Tonight: Paint the town red. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You are aware of the impact of some recent spending. You could feel as if you can’t get past a problem. Be more forthright in your dealings than you have been. You are rarely blunt, but that type of clarity might get better results right now. Tonight: Nap, then decide. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You are on a roll, and others will find it nearly impossible to stop you. Give people the space they need to express their needs. You are more playful than you have been in a while. Someone might not know how to approach you. Tonight: Make your wish a reality. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Your routine might be getting the best of you. You could be tired of proceeding as you have been every day. Someone will charm you beyond belief, and you are likely to find out more about this person as a result. A lot is going on behind the scenes. Tonight: Hang out with friends. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Pleasant interactions between associates and friends might

be more important than you realize. An appealing option could appear from out of the blue. You’ll recognize how much your immediate circle plays into this possibility. Tonight: Follow through on a suggestion. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) A friendship could be on its last leg. Your ability to get past a problem will encourage others to come toward you. News from a loved one delights you and encourages you to be more open and caring. Don’t share your news immediately. Tonight: A force to be dealt with. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Reach out to someone who might be a bit under the weather. This person usually takes care of everyone else; give him or her the luxury of that same experience, and he or she will remember it for a long time. Tonight: A loved one beams when you appear on the scene. BORN TODAY Artist Grandma Moses (1860), Queen Elizabeth I (1533), author Peggy Noonan (1950)

Dear Annie by Annie Lane

mean friend Dear Annie: I have a wonderful group of friends. We all met working together at a restaurant about seven years ago, just out of college. We’ve really grown up with one another. Two of them are a couple, “Ryan” and “Christine.” I love both of them to death, but in all honesty, Christine behaves ridiculously sometimes and is just not nice. A perfect example: We recently rented a beach house for the weekend, in part to celebrate Christine’s birthday. On our first night, we had a barbecue. As we were eating, Ryan reached over and forked a couple of pieces of chicken. Christine scoffed and said, “Are you kidding? It’s my birthday, and you’re just going to take food off my plate without asking?!” Seriously? We were all embarrassed for Ryan and just blown away at how stupid the situation had become. Now, we’re all used to these Christine-isms. She means well. As friends, we’re all able to just not pay attention to those moments or confront her if she’s downright mean. But we know they have been talking about getting engaged. We see how Ryan looks tired these days. He is truly in love with her, but it seems as if he’s exhausted from the relationship. My question is: Should one of us say something to him about it? -- Holding Our Breath Dear Holding: Keep holding your breath, because you’d probably be better off passing out than getting in the middle of relationship problems. Your heart is in the right place, and it’s great Ryan and Christine have friends who care about their well-being. This kind of support will help them have a successful marriage if and when they decide to take that step. Whoever is closest with Ryan can open up a general, judgment-free dialogue (e.g., “So, how is everything going with you and Christine?”) so he feels comfortable talking about any concerns. Likewise, Christine’s closest friends might encourage her to work on her temper. But stop short of telling either of them what to do in the relationship, lest you end up taking the heat. Dear Annie: I have been seeing this guy for a little over a year now. We met at a mutual friend’s party while I was visiting New York. We had an instant connection. We were super attracted to each other and then found that we have a lot in common -- the same sense of humor, same philosophies on life, same love of travel. It was immediately bittersweet, though, because he lives in New York City and I live in Los Angeles. We both felt that long-distance relationships never work, so we left our relationship as just friends, even though we both understood we were interested in more. I travel to New York quite a bit and stay with him whenever I’m there. I always have a great time with him. I met up with him when I traveled to Asia, and we were inseparable. Recently, I’ve been giving a lot of thought to getting serious with him, but there are a few other things aside from the distance holding me back. For one, he doesn’t currently have a job even though he’s been out of college for a few months. I worry he’s unambitious. But I feel that if I don’t give this a shot, I will always regret it. Should I give him a chance? -- Confused Dear Confused: Contrary to popular cynical belief, long-distance relationships can work. In fact, according to my research, about 10 percent of marriages in the U.S. started out as long-distance relationships. The key is to have a light at the end of the tunnel. Doing the bicoastal thing with no end in sight makes it harder to cope, and it also makes you miss out on the real world outside your computer screen. You can’t spend every Saturday night on Skype. His unemployment is actually a plus here. There’s no job tying him to New York. Talk to him about working toward a future together in Los Angeles. Your chemistry sounds right, and now is the perfect time to test it out. Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@creators.com.

She always had room at the table for one or more plate. Connie will be sadly missed and always remembered for the beautiful, compassionate lady she was. She was a wonderful aunt and friend to many. Connie was the beloved mother to Mary Ann Rattray, Donald Rattray and Genevieve Nielsen, grandmother to Mette, Kirt, Tanner, Tyson and Caelan, great grandmother to Camryn, Kash, Chance, Carolyn and Chase. Connie was predeceased by her loving husband Donald.
