VOTE GETS NOD; WILL THEY STRIKE? By Christopher Foulds KTW EDITOR
editor@kamloopsthisweek.com
B.C. teachers have voted in favour of a full walkout to put maximum pressure on the provincial government, but their union has not moved to issue 72-hour strike notice. A total of 33,387 teachers cast ballots on Monday and Tuesday this week, with 28,809 voting in favour of a full strike. There are estimated 41,000 teachers in the BCTF membership, meaning about 80 per cent of eligible voters took part. B.C. Teachers’ Federation president Jim Iker called it a “very strong message” to the province. “So far, this government has come to the table empty-handed, it’s time to change that,” Iker said. Noting teachers are prepared to go to a full-scale strike, he said it is “a decision we never take lightly” and would depend on how talks proceed with the provincial government. “You’ve got to remain hopeful that government has learned from the past mistakes they’ve made,” said Iker, who referred to the union’s legal battle with the province over class size and composition and “the government’s chaotic lockout.” A full strike would close elementary and middle schools — parents will be advised to make child-care arrangements if necessary — while secondary schools would be open only to conduct exams for Grade 10 to 12 students. The lack of $50-a-day strike pay — the BCTF’s strike fund is expected to be exhausted at the end of this week — was apparently a non-issue for most teachers. The provincial government’s bargaining arm, the B.C. Public School Employers’ Association (BSPSEA) appeared before the Labour Relations Board after KTW deadline last night (June 11), asking the board to declare the preparation and marking of provin-
cial exams for students in grades 10 to 12 an essential service. Teachers have been without a contract since June 30, 2013. The BCPSEA has offered a six-year contract with a cumulative 7.3 per cent salary increase, along with a per teacher signing bonus of $1,200 if a deal is reached by June 30. The BCTF has countered with a four-year deal with a 9.75 per cent salary hike, along with cost-of-living increases tied to inflation. But, the teachers’ union has been adamant the main point in contract negotiations is class size and composition. Up to 2002, the BCTF had the right to include classroom size and composition (the number of special-needs students per classroom) in its contract. In 2002, the then-Gordon Campbell government (with Premier Christy Clark as education minister) stripped the union of that right. A court ruling in January ordered the B.C. Liberal government to restore class-size and composition numbers to 2002 levels, but Victoria is appealing the decision, arguing the order would cost as much as $1 billion. Education Minister Peter Fassbender was not surprised at the 86 per cent strike vote. “No one should interpret this as any kind of enthusiasm on the part of teachers to shut down schools,” Fassbender said. “The BCTF leadership needs to come to the table with realistic expectations and a willingness to engage in meaningful bargaining. Teachers deserve a raise, but their total compensation demands are about four times more than other recent settlements.” Meanwhile, the union’s rotating strikes are continuing this week, with teachers in the Kamloops-Thompson school district set to walk the picket lines on Friday, June 13, giving students a third day off in the past three weeks due to labour action.
IN MEMORY: Kamloops Mounties dressed in traditional red-serge uniforms take part in a memorial service on Tuesday, June 10, to honour the three Moncton RCMP officers who were killed on duty last week. Local officers were joined by Kamloops firefighters, politicians and about 250 members of the public at the ceremony outside the RCMP’s Battle Street detachment. For more, turn to page A5.

Sundhu to seek federal NDP nomination By Dale Bass
STAFF REPORTER
dale@kamloopsthisweek.com
Criticizing the Stephen Harper government for bringing cynicism to Parliament, Kamloops lawyer Bill Sundhu is seeking to run for a seat in that Ottawa building — as a member of the New Democratic Party of Canada. In making the announcement he will run for the federal nomination in the KamloopsThompson-Cariboo riding — now held by Conservative Cathy McLeod — Sundhu said he has spoken with “men, women and youth from various walks of life . . . worried that the sacrifices and choices made by previous generations of Canadians to build a society based on fairness and equality of opportunity is in peril.” Sundhu is a former judge and now a lawyer focusing on human rights. He was recently appointed to the list of coun-
sel for the International Criminal Court (ICC). Sundhu said Harper’s government has borrowed an ideology “from the U.S. Republican playbook” that has divided voters into us versus them and led to attack ads, contempt of Parliament “and bellicose rhetoric” that has attacked veterans and the chief justice of the Supreme Court of Canada. Eight years ago, Sundhu — then a provincial-court judge in Kamloops — was arrested after he verbally abused a staff member at a Vancouver hotel and threatened the jobs of officers sent to arrest him. He knows this will be an issue should he secure the NDP nomination for the Oct 19, 2015, federal election. “That’s old history,” he said. “I made a mistake but, in hindsight, it became an opportunity to be a better person.” When he resigned as judge, then-attorney general Wally Oppal questioned whether that step was necessary, praising Sundhu’s years as a lawyer and a judge.
Sundhu said the incident was a turning point and led him to later be accepted into a prestigious human-rights law program at Oxford University and, most recently, his involvement with the ICC, which deals with genocide, war crimes, crimes of aggression and crimes against humanity. He said he has been approached by NDP members several times in recent years and has some history with the local federal Liberal constituency association. “But, this is the direction I have chosen to go,” he said, calling next year’s vote “a historical election, a fight for the soul of our country.” The Kamloops-Thompson-Cariboo riding association has not yet announced a date to hold its nomination meeting. McLeod has been acclaimed and will run for re-election, while the Liberals and Greens have yet to have candidates declare for the nomination.
Kamloops lawyer Bill Sundhu wants to silence the “bellicose rhetoric” he says has infected Ottawa.
Strike will affect summer school

Summer school is in jeopardy if the province’s teachers decide to engage in a full strike, according to KamloopsThompson school district Supt. Terry Sullivan. The district is planning to offer classes from July 2 to July 25 at Sa-Hali secondary in a variety of courses, including communications, social studies, math, science and English. The courses involve 40 hours of remedial or 80 hours of full instruction to students who have failed the subject and want to obtain the credit before the next school year begins. The district also offers a non-credit math camp for students in grades 4 to 9 at six school sites and a reading program for students in grades 1 and 2 at seven sites through the summer. “There’s no question about that,” Sullivan said in response to the job action affecting summer-school students. Teachers have voted in favour of a
new stage of job action, but the B.C. Teachers’ Federation is required to give 72 hours’ notice before ordering a full strike. Under a full strike, Sullivan said, many other aspects of education in the summer will be affected, from issuing report cards — the government has asked the Labour Relations Board to declare that an essential service — to collecting textbooks to storing chemicals. Secretarial staff are in schools during the first week of July and again in the last two weeks of August as they help with the summer shutdown and reopening of the schools. Any job action by teachers would affect this as unions representing support, clerical and maintenance staff will not cross picket lines. Those unions have reached a tentative agreement on a framework for a new five-year contract, one that now moves to the local level to hammer out district-specific language.

Scam targets owners of lost dogs Kamloops Mounties are trying to track down the suspect behind what they call a “heartless� scam that preys on pet owners intent on being reunited with a lost pooch. RCMP Cpl. Cheryl Bush said the scam sees owners of lost dogs contacted by a person who claims to have found their pet. He asks for a reward by email money transfer ahead of time, then arranges a meeting place. Bush said one pet owner has sent an email money transfer to the scammer, while three more were able to sniff it out as a scam. “This is devastating to pet owners who hope to have their pet returned,� Bush said, describing the scheme as “heartless.� She said investigators are trying to determine whether the scammer is local. Bush identified one of the lost dogs involved in the operation as Sophie, a chihuahuacross from California who ran away last week from the Juniper home at which she was being fostered. There has since been a Twitter account created, @FindSophie, to help track her down. Anyone with information about the scam can call Kamloops RCMP at 250-828-3000 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

KAMLOOPS HONOURS FALLEN MOUNTIES By Tim Petruk
STAFF REPORTER
tim@kamloopsthisweek.com
About 250 people gathered on Battle Street outside the Kamloops RCMP detachment on Tuesday, June 10, to pay their respects to the three Mounties killed in Moncton, N.B., last week. “This past week has been very difficult and emotional for our RCMP family and people in Canada alike,” Kamloops RCMP Supt. Brad Mueller said at the service. “Words cannot express the sadness and the sorrow we feel for the loss of one of our own. “These men were taken from their families, from the communities and from their country in the prime of their lives.” On June 4, RCMP constables Fabrice Georges Gevaudan, James Larch and David Ross were shot
and killed by an armed assailant in Moncton. Two other Mounties were shot and injured. A suspect, 24-year-old Justin Bourque, was arrested on June 6 and has been in custody since, charged with three counts of firstdegree murder and two counts of attempted murder. Mueller said the outpouring of support since the shootings has been encouraging. “It has reminded us that our work is important and we are appreciated in the community,” he said. Mayor Peter Milobar said Kamloops is in the unique position of being able to relate to the Moncton shootings, given the 1952 shootings in Peterson Creek that left three Kamloops Mounties — constables Joe Keck, Donald Weisgerber and Gord Pedersen — dead. “As a community, we have that
unfortunate bond with Moncton now, where we’ve seen three officers who were doing their best to protect us pay the ultimate price,” he said. “Thank you, and we will not forget the three fallen members, just as we didn’t forget 52 years ago, as well. “Certainly, I think we all sleep easier at night knowing you’re all out protecting us 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.” At the end of the ceremony, representatives from the Kamloops RCMP, the City of Kamloops, Kamloops Fire Rescue and Kamloops-ThompsonCariboo MP Cathy McLeod each laid wreaths on the Kamloops RCMP’s wall of honour in front of the detachment. Schoening’s Funeral Service, 177 Tranquille Rd., also has a book of condolences it will be forwarding to Moncton.

Lawyers vote to oppose law-school accreditation By Cam Fortems STAFF REPORTER
cam@kamloopsthisweek.com
Kamloops lawyers were among several thousand who voted by a 3:1 margin to reverse a decision by the B.C. Law Society to accredit a proposed law school that condemns gay sex. More than 50 Kamloops lawyers gathered on Tuesday, June 11 — part of a provincewide contingent of more than 4,000 — to debate and vote on whether B.C. Law Society should accept a new law school that discriminates against homosexuals. About 3,000 lawyers voted in favour of having the law society not accreditate the law school, while about 1,000 lawyers cast their ballots in favour of accreditation. Lawyers spoke in favour of a resolution asking the law society to reject accreditation of Trinity Western University, a private Christian school in Langley. Both the province and the executive of the law society recommended approving the school. The motion is not

binding on the society’s benchers, which includes society vicepresident Ken Walker. The Kamloops lawyer voted to accredit the law school, saying it is on the side of the law as set down by the Supreme Court of Canada. The proposed law school would require students to abstain from sex outside marriage between a man and woman, the same pledge made by all students who attend the university. Graham Kay was one of the city lawyers who attended the meeting at the Plaza Hotel, one of 16 gatherings in the province. All were linked by teleconference to hear speakers around B.C.
“I believe the lawschool covenant is discriminatory and that has no place in a modern law school,” Kay told KTW. The criminal and family lawyer intended to vote in favour of the resolution opposing the accreditation and predicted the majority of lawyers who showed up to vote would do the same. “This is an important exercise in democracy,” Kay said. “We have the opportunity to revisit the decision and have a broader discussion on the topic.” Family lawyer and former NDP candidate Kathy Kendall said while she appreciates the “intellectual quality of the argument” presented by the executive —who argued it had to support the school based on the law balancing religious and personal freedoms — she added, “I just can’t agree with supporting such a discriminatory process. “I’m not making a
lawyerly, intellectual analysis,” Kendall said. “I’m following my internal belief that it’s just wrong.” However, Kamloops lawyer John Hogg urged lawyers to vote with their heads — and on the side of the law. Trinity Western won a decision at the Supreme Court of Canada more than a decade ago when the B.C. College of Teachers objected to the school’s education program that required students to sign the agreement not to engage in homosexual behaviour. “We’re lawyers,” Hogg said. “We should obey the law . . . and wait and see what happens at the Supreme Court of Canada because that’s where this is going.” While Hogg said he disagrees with the policy, he expressed confidence the school’s future graduates would put potential biases aside when representing clients, just as criminal

Study: TRU packs $355-million punch By Dale Bass
STAFF REPORTER
dale@kamloopsthisweek.com
While it’s always known it has an economic impact on the city, Thompson Rivers University now has the data to back up the belief — to to tune of $355 million per year. At a presentation this week to about 100 local business people, the university presented a report prepared by Laura Lamb, an associate professor in the economics department, who looked into what TRU, its employees, staff and visitors spend and what the spinoff effect of that investment amounts to in Kamloops, the ThompsonNicola region and the province. Matt Milovick, the university’s vice-president for administration and finance, said no model exists that can tie a precise value, but the figures Lamb derived are, he said, “as close as possible to the actual ones.”

The study looked at three expenditure areas: Students, the institution itself and visitors to TRU. Applying the models, Lamb determined the university’s impact is 5.5 times that of the $65-million operating provincial grant it receives, adding $355 million to the region’s economy in 20122013. Expand the area to the province and the impact was $650.6 million that year, Millovick said. The two figures are composed from the expenditures and a value of higher education. For example, the $355 million is made up of $198.2 million spent by the institution, $83.2 million spent by students, $63 million put into the economy by visitors and $10.7 million in a valuation of higher education. Lamb’s study showed TRU created 2,108 jobs in the ThompsonNicola Regional District and 3,202

in the province. Sixty per cent of the university’s more than 50,000 alumni live in the Interior and Kootenay regions of the province, the study showed. Another 24 per cent live elsewhere in the province, six percent live in other parts of the country and 10 per cent live abroad. There’s more to the university than dollars and cents, said its president, Alan Shaver, noting the campus is the scene of many cultural, educational and artistic events and everyone gives back to the community in many ways. Participation in the United Way Thompson-Nicola-Cariboo campaign, for example, has increased by 73 per cent. Many students and staff do volunteer work and support charities. There is also much research being done, with $2.7 million now being spent in “knowledge creation and problem-solving,” Shaver said.

My son bought this Ford 250 from me several years ago. My wife insisted I sell it to him. He paid it off promptly (he was 19 at the time) and over the last couple of years, fixed it up pretty! Unfortunately while in Kamloops at the Accent Inn for a dirt bike ride at Greenstone Mtn, several weeks ago. His truck, our two motor bikes (Honda 450 and KTM 300) and all of our gear were stolen. He heard the thief drive off and it was gone like that! If you can help us, we would greatly appreciate your assistance. Reward for the right information.

Every four years, we ignore the disgusting realities

OES ANYONE ELSE find World Cup fever a tad strange? Don’t get me wrong. I like soccer as much as the next guy, perhaps more. My time in the Tournament Capital has seen me grow to enjoy watching the world’s beautiful game. I once detested covering TRU WolfPack soccer matches, but now look forward to them. Like many others in the River City, I will be watching my fair share of World Cup action over the next month. But, here in Canada, soccer isn’t in the mix when it comes to talk of major professional sports, which is why I find the fascination with the World Cup to be somewhat strange. Let’s face it, Canada isn’t exactly a soccer nation — our men’s team is ranked 110th in FIFA’s world rankings. I would bet our country has more fans with intimate knowledge of the Ottawa RedBlacks than we do people who know Association Football. Yet, every four years, World Cup soccer comes around and we’re glued to our TVs, taking long lunches or calling in sick, hiding online streams behind other windows on our office computers so the boss doesn’t know what we’re doing. Heck, I even spent the morning writing a story on what’s happening around the city in celebration of World Cup. I’m adding fuel to the fire. But, isn’t it strange for a country that’s more or less indifferent to the sport for the three years and 11 months in between tournaments? What’s perhaps more disturbing than our bandwagon obsession, though, is our willingness to turn a blind eye to some
ADAM WILLIAMS Fooled ‘Em AGAIN of the disgusting realities of FIFA and the World Cup. Let’s be realistic — we do the same thing every four years with the Olympics. Like the mother of the elementaryschool bully, we see what we want, ignoring everything to the contrary. The World Cup is entertaining and fun, so who cares what happens behind the scenes? Brazilians, for one. According to Al Jazeera America, Brazil has spent more than $14-billion US on the 2014 World Cup, more than any other nation in the tournament’s 84-year history. Preparation across the country’s 12 host cities has been marred by protests and strikes. Locals argue against the construction of multi-million dollar stadiums and people are starving in the streets. FIFA, the World Cup’s governing body, is again at the centre of allegations of corruption, this time regarding its selection of Qatar as tournament host in 2022. There’s little argument certain aspects of Brazil’s preparation defy logic
— the $300-million Amazonia Arena built in Manaus springs to mind. The stadium will host just four matches during the World Cup and won’t be used by an elite soccer team following the tournament. Its location, in the heart of the Amazon rainforest, is miles from any other population centre. Those issues are only the tip of the iceberg. Just as countless column inches were devoted to the euthanizing of stray dogs and construction delays in Sochi during the Olympic Games, Brazil has drawn the media’s ire. Yet, when Brazil and Croatia kick off the tournament’s opening match today, few will remember the protests and security issues. Most won’t give a second thought to whether the government acted responsibly or if the Brazilian public deserved better. We’ll sit back with a beer, make bets on office pools and pretend like soccer is a sport we care about year-round. sn’t there something wrong with that? I read a Sports Illustrated (SI) story the other day, a 1980s tribute to Jim Murray, one of the greatest sports writers of our time. According to SI, Murray “would mumble and fuss that he had no angle, sigh heavily and then, when he had finished his column, no matter how good it was, he would always slide back in his chair and say, ‘Well, fooled ‘em again.’” Something tells me that would have summed up his thoughts on the World Cup, too. adam@kamloopsthisweek.com Twitter: @adamwilliams87
Sundhu adds stiff challenge if nominated With all due respect to Michael Crawford and Brian Carroll, it would appear the incumbent Conservative MP for Kamloops-Thompson-Cariboo will face the toughest test next year. With Kamloops lawyer (and former judge) Bill Sundhu declaring for the NDP nomination, the party that once owned the Kamloops political scene federally will, for the first time since the late 1990s, seriously challenge for the seat. Kamloops is odd in that its voters will swing wide left and wide right as they embrace the perceived grassroots party. Nelson Riis was NDP MP for 20 long years — 1980 to 2000 — before being defeated by Canadian Alliance/Conservative candidate Betty Hinton rather handily. Since 2000, the Kamloops riding has elected nothing but Conservatives, with Cathy McLeod set to run for her third term in October 2015. To now, McLeod has coasted to victory, but Sundhu may be the stiffest test yet. He has an intimate knowledge of the justice system — which happens to be a plank on which the Conservatives plant many an argument. He attended Oxford University and just recently became involved with the International Criminal Court, which deals with genocide, war crimes, crimes of aggression and crimes against humanity. But, he said, his goal is to run in an election he calls “a fight for the soul of our country.” At the vert least, Kamloops voters should enjoy a race that should go down to the wire.

A selection of comments on KTW stories, culled online
Re: Story: Teachers vote 86 per cent in favour of full strike:
“The teachers are ridiculous, using the kids as pawns in their attempt to get more money. “If this fight was for the kids, as their signs suggest, then ask for a raise in line with other public-sector workers. It’s not like they’re underpaid. “The go-to class-size argument is getting old. “If they did care about the kids, ask for a modest pay increase and go after the classsize issue and too many special-needs kids in one class. “So tired of them using the kids as pawns. I do not support the teachers on this strike.� — posted by TyGuy
Re: Story: Residents hopes to upgrade Stuart Wood with SD73:

Trial record contradicts claims by victim of fight Editor: The front-page story in the May 30 edition of KTW (‘There is law, but no justice’), which involved an interview with Abdulaziz Alhedain, a Saudi student studying at Thompson Rivers University who was injured in a nightclub fight with fellow student Yousef Mohammed Almotairi, I represented Almotairi at his trial and sentencing. Notwithstanding
Alhedaib’s version of events at trial, the record should be corrected to accord with Justice Richard Goepel’s reasons for judgment of July 31, 2013. Goepel expressly rejected Alhedaib’s evidence as it related to a perceived incident involving Almotairi and the “cowboys.� He accepted the evidence of Almotairi and two civilian witnesses, particularly as it was

ing: That Alhedaib was the aggressor throughout, that he was angry at Almotairi because he did not attend his birthday gathering, that Almotairi “did not swear at or challenge Mr. Alhedaib,� and that after twice approaching Almotairi, the third time Alhedaib punched Almotairi, to which Almotairi instantly responded by striking him with the pool cue he held in his hand.
Goepel went on to find that “Mr. Alhedaib’s actions provoked and led to the tragic event which unfolded.� At sentencing, Almotairi expressed profound remorse to Alhadaib and to the court. It should be noted that, indeed, many lives were significantly altered with this tragic event. Michelle D. Stanford Kamloops
Victims Bill of Rights gives victims statutory rights Editor: Re: Murray Dickson’s letter of June 3 (‘Victims of crime deserve more than promotion of Harper’): To suggest the Victims Bill of Rights does no more than score political points disrespects the contributions of victims of crime across the country who came forward to share their experiences and recommendations in the creation of the bill.
This bill will ensure that, for the first time in Canadian history, victims have clear, statutory rights at the federal level. The reforms proposed by this legislation come as the result of an extensive consultation process. Victims made it clear they wanted the tragic impacts of crime on their lives, families and property to be given greater prominence, to be provided
with information about court dates or plea negotiations and to be properly protected. It was clear they weren’t only thinking of their own experience — they were telling their stories on behalf of other victims. As a result of these consultations, our government introduced the Victims Bill of Rights, which creates the following statutory rights for victims of crime:
• Right to information; • Right to protection; • Right to participation; • Right to restitution. Our government has been committed to standing up for victims of crime and ensuring Canadians have a justice system that is working for them. The Victims Bill of Right helps to ensure just that.

Do not let Premier Clark further damage education system Editor: It is my deepest wish that people who use this space in your newspaper to say untrue things about the teachers in this province would stop doing so. I wish they would take the time to learn about what has been happening in B.C.’s schools since 2001. In 2001, Christy Clark was the minister of education. In that portfolio, she began to systematically dismantle the public education system. One example: At that time, British Columbia and Ontario were the only two provinces in Canada that required school libraries be staffed with professional teacher-librarians. Teacher-librarians go to university for almost as many years
as medical doctors. They earn three degrees — an undergraduate degree, a bachelor of education and a master’s of library science. Teacher-librarians tend to be people who love children and who believe deeply in the simple idea that, if you teach a child to read, you open a whole universe of adventure, learning and careers to that child. In 2001, under Clark’s leadership, the requirement for school libraries to be manned by professionals was eliminated. The library in the school where I worked was closed the next year. Rather than being open to the students, it became a dumping ground (lit-

erally) for books from several resource centres that had also been closed and whose materials were packed up and, yes, dumped all over the tables and floors of our once-proud library. Clark’s decision to no longer support teacher-librarians meant my job was cut. After eight years of studying at some of the best universities in this country, and still with a student loan to pay, I was casually informed I was redundant. Please, people, do not allow Clark to further damage our education system. Maureen Brewer Kamloops

New brewery downtown gets council nod A new brewery in the former Rivers nightclub has received support from Kamloops city council. In a unanimous vote, council has agreed to support Red Collar Brewing and Tap Room’s application for a liquor licence. The brewery-lounge endorsement would allow Red Collar to sell only beer brewed on site and some food. During a public comment period this week, the city received one a letter of support for the project and no expressions of concern. Red Collar, owned by former Nobel Pig brewmaster and co-owner David Beardsell, aims to open this summer.

Kamloops will ask the federal government to set aside funds in case it needs to add more RCMP officers to its staff in the next city budget cycle. At its June 10 meeting, council asked staff to write a letter to the federal Treasury Board, asking it to set aside its portion of the funding for two new members. Ottawa pays for 10 per cent of RCMP funding. Director of community safety and corporate services David Duckworth said the city may need the extra officers because of a new nuisance-property bylaw it’s looking to bring in this fall. Though the RCMP has predicted it will need one more member to enforce the bylaw — which would allow the city to charge owners of designated nuisance properties for superfluous emergency calls — Duckworth said it’s better to ask for funding for two members just in case. It will be up to the next city council at budget time next year to decide whether to go ahead with hiring the extra officers

Will Kinder Morgan pitch in with cash? By Andrea Klassen STAFF REPORTER
adam@kamloopsthisweek.com
The City of Kamloops is looking to Kinder Morgan to cover some of the biggest expenses in its planned beautification of the Brocklehurst arm of Tranquille Road. Coun. Nelly Dever said the city’s Tranquille Road Beautification, Enhancement and Gateway task force is set to present its vision for the corridor to the Trans Mountain pipeline proponent, with the idea Kinder Morgan may choose to do some or all of the work on Kamloops’ behalf. “They’ve asked us for our bluesky ideas, so we’re shooting for the moon,” Dever said. “We’re going to give them those ideas, see what they come back with, then we’ll go to council and say, ‘This is what they’re willing to do.’” Kinder Morgan has applied to the National Energy Board for permission to twin its Trans Mountain pipeline, allowing it to transport nearly 900,000 barrels of oil and refined products per day, almost triple its current capacity, to Burnaby from Alberta. If it’s successful, the company will have major construction work to undertake in the same area the city hopes to beautify. The task force estimates a first phase of beautification, from Airport Road to the hairpin turn by the Brocklehurst dog park, would cost $4.9 million to improve fully. A second phase, from the turn to Crestline Street, would cost about $2.4 million. “If the city were to take on the project, it would cost quite different than Kinder Morgan,” Dever said. “Kinder Morgan has different contractors and their project is much larger to scale.”
The first phase of upgrades would include a roundabout with public art at the entrance to the Kamloops Airport, as well as a plaza and lookout point. In phase two, the city would build a sidewalk on the north side of Tranquille and a multi-use pathway to the south. In both phases, hydro lines would be moved underground. Further work into the residential portion of Tranquille would be done in additional phases, which don’t yet have a cost attached. Dever said hydro lines are the single-largest cost in the first two phases. “If Kinder Morgan could do that portion, that would be a huge savings to the city,” she said. The plan is trimmed down from an original $24-million vision presented to council by staff last fall. Originally, staff had suggested making improvements from Desmond Street to the airport in one fell swoop. Early plans also included a trail to the airport, which isn’t in the task force’s plans. Dever said if Kinder Morgan agrees to do some of the gateway work, phase one of the plan would likely go ahead in 2017. Phase two might go ahead earlier if the city can find the money. “We’re looking at our options now,” she said. “Kinder Morgan is a huge part of that puzzle. “We’re also looking at working with some of the private industry. “There are some that have come to the table who’ve said they’re interested in maybe offering something.” Dever said the task force aims to present a “vision plan” for the first two phases of beautification by the end of this month.

Helps to promote healthy mood balance, relaxation, use as a sleep aid and mental stress. Stress is one of the main causes of high blood pressure. Truthful experience by people: � I am calm now in stressful situations! In the past 10 years I had a very short fuse, because my job is quite unpredictable. After I started Bell Calming Chronic Stress #66 the difference was amazing. My reactions to stressful situations are totally changed. I also have more energy, too. I don’t yell at others. I have more patience and I am much happier as well. Thank you. Mary-Anne Thompson, 61, Lasalle, ON � I suffered greatly from anxiety. #66 NPN 80041855 Standard treatments did not make me feel good. So my mother bought Bell Calming Chronic Stress #66 and it has been helping me a lot. I am on my 3rd bottle. Remington Fletcher, 19, Ponty Pool, ON � I have a very high stress career in the film industry. There was no time for relaxation or meditation as you are on demand for 12-15 hours a day with no breaks. Since using Bell #66I am able to focus on the tasks at hand with more patience. Thank you for your help! Christina Ollson, 36, Burnaby, BC �It’s exactly one year since we began using Bell Calming Chronix Stress #66 for our two sons. Our local health food store recommended it. Both of our sons suffer from anxiety disorders. Our older son (14) was going through puberty and had become quite unmanageable, because he is much larger than I am. We are delighted with the immediate results. Our older son became his former sweet self and our younger son’s (12) anxiety is dramatically reduced. Thank you so much.

Leong to stand trial in 2015
Unlock A trial date has been set for a former Kamloops city councillor accused of defrauding the non-profit Kamloops Heritage Railway Society. Joe Leong’s trial in B.C. Supreme Court in Kamloops is slated to run three weeks beginning on Aug. 10, 2015. Leong, the railway society’s former treasurer, is facing two counts each of fraud, theft over $5,000 and breach of trust stemming from

alleged improprieties between February 2011 and March 2012. The heritage railway society board resigned en masse in May 2012. A new board ordered an audit, which prompted questions about the struggling society’s finances and Leong’s role as treasurer — a position he held for two decades. In March, a provincial court judge ordered Leong’s charges to proceed to trial in B.C.

The 2141 Spirit of Kamloops steam engine, operated by the Kamloops Heritage Railway Society, was ordered off the tracks last year after Transport Canada ordered repairs be made to the boiler that keeps the engine chugging. The locomotive is expected to be back in action in 2015.

BY JESSICA WALLACE • STAFF REPORTER • JESSICA@KAMLOOPSTHISWEEK.COM Ian and Darlene Farquharson stood at the wharf to take in the view. They stopped during a walk in Riverside Park, Mount Peter and Paul in the distance, the sun shining everywhere. “We’ve climbed all these mountains, all these hills,” Ian says. The two retired Kamloops residents met on a hike near Savona in 1954 and will celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary in September of next year.
Ian was 25 when they met. Darlene was 20. It was Darlene’s first hike as a member of the Kamloops Outdoor Club, though Ian had already been a member for a couple of years. “Ian took me under his wing because there were a few iffy spots,” Darlene says, adding he gave her his hand. They hiked, he asked her for coffee and she says, “it just grew.” They were married a year later at St. Paul’s
Cathedral. “You just know,” Darlene says. Together they’ve watched Kamloops grow from about 10,000 people, have had three kids and, after 25 or so years with the club, they’ve hiked everywhere. Mount Peter, Mount Paul, Dufferin, Sugarloaf Hill, Tranquille Creek — they got the kids involved, too. Marble Canyon was
memorable, but they won’t say why, as doing so would spoil it for others. “You have to go there and find out,” Ian says. At ages 80 and 85, their last hike was four years ago and Ian now gets around with a walker after a recent knee replacement. “It’s been a long time,” he says. They now spend their time gardening, golfing and walking in Riverside
Park two or three times per week. They don’t recognize others walking around any more, now that the city has grown. And, it’s been a while since they’ve climbed the mountains in the distance. But, they appreciate the view when they stop at the wharf. They can still climb the hills in their memories.

LOCAL NEWS BRIEFS
European motorcycle journalists in Kamloops More than a dozen writers from Europe will be in Kamloops this week, revving up their engines to explore this region’s motorcycle routes. As many as 15 motorcycle-magazine journalists from Britain, France and Germany will sample the scenery and the highways of B.C.’s Interior. Kamloops Harley Owners Group spokesman Kevin Brown said HOG is hosting, though not sponsoring, the group for HOG’s 26th annual poker run, an event that has raised $900,000 over the years to combat muscular dystrophy. More than 800 guests, including disabled vets, city council representatives and muscular dystrophy (MD) representative Micaela Evans, as well as 650 Harley-Davidson motorcycles, are involved. For this ride alone, HOG has raised between $6,000 and $7,000 for local charities, plus another $30,000 to fight MD, raised through a raffle of a Harley-Davidson Street Glide and a Sportster. All funds raised stay in the region. A barbecue is set for Friday, June 13, at Kamloops HarleyDavidson. Riders will head out on Saturday, June 14.

GOLF, ENTREE AND SHARED BOTTLE OF WINE The male driver of the red pickup truck died and four people in the black pickup truck were injured following this crash in Kamloops on Monday, June 9. The black truck crossed the centre line and crashed into the red truck on Highway 5 North. Andrea Klassen/KTW
Police continue to probe reasons behind fatal crash Police are still investigating a violent crash on the Yellowhead Highway (Highway 5 North) near Heffley Creek this week that left one person dead and another in serious condition in hospital. Kamloops RCMP Cpl. Cheryl Bush said Mounties are hoping to speak to more witnesses who may have seen the wreck, which
took place on Monday, June 9. Investigators believe a southbound pickup truck crossed over the centre line and collided head-on with a northbound pickup truck. The driver of the northbound truck was pronounced dead at the scene, while all four occupants of the southbound truck were taken to hospital.
A rear-seat passenger in that vehicle remains in serious condition. Bush said police have been asked to not disclose the name of the deceased driver. Anyone with information about the accident is asked to call police at 250-828-3000 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-2228477.

WALKING FOR CAUSES If it’s spring in Kamloops, it must be time for fundraising walks for myriad causes. Each weekend in the Tournament Capital, parks are filled with people doing their best to raise money for, and awareness of, many causes. This past weekend saw residents fill Riverside Park (above) to take part in the 12-hour Relay for Life, an event to raise money for cancer research. Leading the way were Jon Wilson (on pipes), RCMP Const. George Buckle and the Spirit Warriors Dragon Boat Team. The weekend also saw residents lace up their shoes and head to McArthur Island for the Gutsy Walk, an endeavour to raise money for research into Crohn’s and colitis. Among those taking part were Melissa (left), Harper and Trevor Finch. Trevor was the walk’s honorary chairman.

You don’t have to take a trip Down Under to pet a baby kangaroo. You can drive to Winfield, just outside of Kelowna, to get some kangaroo lovin’. When you get to Kangaroo Creek Farm, you will most likely be greeted by owner and kangaroo breeder Caroline Wightman, but don’t let her accent fool you. It is British, not Australian. In fact, you will be surprised to learn she has never visited the land from where kangaroos originate — and neither have the kangaroos. They are mostly descendents from a group of 10 kangaroos Wightman rescued from New Zealand. More than 20 years ago, New Zealand started a program to eradicate non-native species. For years, New Zealanders had been importing different species of animals from all over the world, only to discover some of the species were having a damaging effect on the native fauna and flora. Most of the kangaroos and wallabies on the island were either shot or poisoned, but a few of them were sent to countries willing to accept them. Wightman and a friend were able to bring 10 of those kangaroos to Canada with the co-operation of Agriculture

N Canada and thus began her passion for Kangaroos. While they have been breeding the animals to sell to zoos and game farms for a number of years, Wightman and her husband have only recently opened their farm to the public. Last year, they welcomed three new joeys (baby kangaroos), all of which will grow up on the farm for everyone to enjoy. Admission is by donation and visitors are able to pet and feed the kangaroos, hold a joey kangaroo or a baby albino wallaby and interact with an assortment of other animals, including parrots, potbellied pigs, emus and goats. HOW TO GET THERE — Kangaroo Creek Farm is at the junction of Hill Road and Main Street, behind the A&W, in Lake Country, From Kamloops via Vernon, go south on Highway 97 and turn left on Hill Road. Proceed down Hill Road to Main Street. Directly on the other side of Main Street is the top of the farm’s driveway. For more information, go online to kangaroocreekfarm.com or call 250-7664823.

DEMOCRACY AT DUFFERIN By Dale Bass
STAFF REPORTER
dale@kamloopsthisweek.com
You could tell the candidates were nervous. As were their campaign managers, if the shaking hands and fidgeting with notes were indicators. But, when the time came to make their pitches to the people who would be voting for them, the four potential politicians in Josette Dalin’s class at Dufferin elementary were polished. They each spoke on issues close to the lives of the voting students — the condition of the school’s playground, extra-curricular activities, class trips and funding education. There were some interesting ideas. Amaryn Mahal thought the playground should be paved over to remove the need for pesticide use and labour costs in cutting the grass. It would help those with allergies, Amaryn said, with perhaps a skate park or some basketball courts added. Kailey Moore said teachers should pay for their own training and do extra-curricular activities for free. She also thought there should be no school the day after pesticides are used on school property. Ryan Sanderson wanted to see more volunteers involved with extra-curricular activities and the money saved from not hiring people put back into the education system. Charlize Phillips wanted pesticides banned and people involved with extra-curricular activities — including parents — paid to do so.
She proposed the grass be cut short on one half of the field for those with allergies and kept longer on the other side. The program, provided by Elections BC, requires students to learn all aspects of an election, so there were posters on school walls, voting stations in one of the classrooms staffed with scrutineers, polling clerks and district electoral officers. Teacher Dalin explained the function of all of them to the voters, who sat patiently on the floor listening to, and occasionally asking questions of, her and the four candidates. Eban Weymouth said he found the exercise interesting because he learned about the voting process, something he hadn’t given much thought to before. Amaryn agreed, saying it was good to learn how people are elected. Both said the experience has probably turned them into future voters. Madison Kivi noted she plans to vote when she’s legally old enough, saying the exercise was a fun way to learn. Dalin said students in her Grade 4/5 class spent three weeks learning about the electoral process, including how to put a positive spin on what might be a negative platform. She said she was proud not only of how they received the lessons through the three weeks, but in how they stepped up to take on the various roles and do their part to help guide the other students through the voting process. Program information is at tinyurl.com/pngkkax.

Retired doctor helps Vancouver shooting victim By Keven Drews
CANADIAN PRESS
VANCOUVER — A retired physician said he relied on his years of experience as a trauma doctor as he helped a man who had been shot only seconds earlier outside a Vancouver coffee shop. Cliff Chase, who worked as an emergency trauma doctor in Saskatchewan for 25 years, said he was leaving a store when his wife told him a man had been shot. “You kick into procedure mode, you blank everything else out if you can, and you just do what you have to do,’’ he said. “You’re trained to intervene in whatever way you can.’’
The shooting in Vancouver’s Yaletown district on Tuesday, June 10, was the first of two incidents in which police traded gunfire with a male suspect who was later wounded outside Science World, a popular tourist and family attraction. Chase said he approached the man who was lying on the ground outside a local Starbucks and found him unconscious, barely breathing, going into shock and bleeding heavily. He said he lifted up the man’s shirt to see if he could see any active bleeding on the front of his body. Chase said he used a towel from the coffee shop to put pressure on a wound on the man’s back and opened up his airways.
THURSDAY
He said he didn’t want to perform CPR because he wasn’t sure how long it would take for the ambulance to arrive, and the victim would have bled even more had he been subjected to active chest compressions. Vancouver police have not named the victim, although an employee at local bike shop confirmed its owner, Paul Dragan, was the shooting victim. He’s in hospital in critical condition. Const. Brian Montague said Tuesday that police officers challenged the alleged shooter and exchanged several shots near the downtown coffee shop. The alleged shooter was taken to hospital in serious condition and remains under police guard.

Sadly Remembering
Richard David Dean
McGillivray
Mary was born in Kamloops on July 20, 1918. In 1884 Mary’s great uncle Filippo (Philip) Scala was the first of her family to arrive in Kamloops, followed by her father Matteo in 1902 and then her mother Carolina Cura Stura in 1912.
Mary worked for many years with the Kamloops Arenas Board until she met the dashing Australian, Frank Larkin. Mary and Frank were married in 1957; they had no children but were loved by many nieces and nephews.
Mary was an accomplished seamstress into her 80’s. She enjoyed entertaining and was happiest with a dining room full of family and friends. A special thanks to Mary’s loyal friend, Rita Russell-Blake in White Rock, for all the care and helpful things you did for Mary over the last few years. A celebration of Mary’s life will be held on September 20, 2014 downstairs at the Colombo Lodge in Kamloops.
Scatter me not to restless winds, Nor toss my ashes to the sea. Remember now those years gone by When loving gifts I gave to thee. Remember now the happy times The family ties we shared. Don’t leave my resting place unmarked As though you never cared.
Mary was predeceased by her siblings; Louis 1914-2000, James 1916-2012 and baby sister, Francis 1921.
Mary and Frank owned many hotels in BC. They retired in 1980 and travelled the world extensively, enjoying many winters in Arizona and Australia.

In her lifetime this angel was strong and true, And stood up for what was right. In your life you’ll be faced with decisions and trials And she’ll shine down her guiding light. Life holds so much in store for you, So remember as you grow older, There are no heights you cannot reach ‘Cause there’s an angel on your shoulder.

When men lay down their lives for friends
I
T WAS WITH shock and sadness that I learned about the shooting deaths of three of our country’s RCMP officers in Moncton. This was followed just a few days later by the equally senseless killing of two officers in Las Vegas. These cases are particularly disturbing to me because, in addition to being a minister, I am a 15-year paramedic and have worked alongside many Mounties. In the early 2000s, I worked in Mayerthorpe, Alta., and got to know constables Leo Johnston and Peter Schiemann on a profes-
GREGORY VAAL You Gotta Have FAITH sional and social basis. It was difficult when Leo and Peter and two other officers were slain in 2005. As I think of the sacrifice of these officers, I am reminded of what Jesus said in John 15:13: “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his
life for his friends.” Here we see the greatest evidence of love is to actually give one’s life on behalf of another. In this verse, Christ was referring specifically to the time when He would voluntarily go to the cross for our sins. In His love, God the Son took on a human body and lived and ministered amongst us for 33 years, then allowed Himself to be captured and cruelly tortured and killed so He could pay the punishment for our sins. Three days later, Christ rose again and demonstrated He has power over
sin and death. Truly, Christ “laid down his life for his friends” because, without this sacrifice, every one of us would be hopelessly destined to eternity in Hell as punishment for our own sins (John 3:18; Heb.10:26-31; Rev. 20:12-15). We avail ourselves of this sacrifice when we come to God in repentance and faith and put our complete confidence in Jesus Christ as our saviour. Thinking again of these fallen officers, we see they demonstrate the “greater love” principle of which Christ spoke. The decision of
these Moncton officers to lay down their lives did not happen on June 4 when they responded to the call of shots being fired. Each of these officers, no doubt, decided well before they even completed their training that they would be willing to lay down their life if need be for those they have sworn to protect. I have a deep appreciation for what our police officers, members of the armed forces, peace officers, prison guards, firefighters, paramedics and other protective agencies do for us. They have much
more than just a career. Most would view what they do as a life calling and an act of service to our communities. They routinely put themselves in harm’s way to protect others and I fear we do not properly thank them for the sacrifices they make. We can wear sympathy ribbons or have bumper stickers, but have you ever personally thanked these service providers when you have the chance? Secondly, what message do we teach our children regarding those in law enforcement? If we get pulled over
and issued a speeding ticket, do we treat the officer with respect or do we rail on the officer or speak ill of him or her later? Let each of us be so careful to recognize these officers are tasked with upholding the laws of our land and not their own laws. Let us show them the proper respect they deserve. Let us teach our children a proper respect for authority. Gregory Vaal is pastor of Berean Baptist Church at 453 Linden Ave. in North Kamloops. pastor@whichway.ca
Fathering fathers in midst of deviant family roles The role of Canadian fathers in a family has seen colossal changes in the last 30-or-so years. In the past, fathers were outsiders when babies were born. The man’s role was to chauffeur the expectant mother to the hospital, wait outside the delivery room and pass out cheers when the doctor declared mother and child were healthy. Today, when babies are born, fathers are expected to be in the delivery room to feel the release of emotion in the birth experience. Being a parent today also means the dad plays an active role in the daily physical and emotional life of his children. This new code of behaviour means the corporate warriors are supposed to go home to be with their children. Mothers, while still keeping the home fires burning, also have to work outside the home for economic survival and to advance their careers. If men are competent to parent, what stops them from engaging in more family work? While many men may want to be more involved, they have not been prepared for extensive roles in parenting, either through family socialization or
NARAYAN MITRA You Gotta Have FAITH formal education. Men must figure out how to balance breadwinner and nurturer roles and bring up the next generation with values that will serve the kids well. This requires a leap not only in conscious attitudes and behaviours, but also in implicit gut-level assumptions about what is appropriate for children. What does the church have to say to men today that will help them make the leap into fatherhood? The most important resource for helping a man become a caregiving father is probably sitting right next to him in the pew. Some pre-parenting support at the church and community levels could help both the parents to prepare. Changing behaviour by helping men realize the benefits to their own psychological health is a good first step for churches to take. Not only do men who are involved in day-to-
day care of children reap real benefits, but their children are also helped by male nurturing. Benefits for the children of caregiving fathers are well documented. Fathers provide a distinct model of male behaviour for children, which is different from mothers. Children who have a caregiving father have advantages over those with traditional dads. Adjusting our perceptions of how families work does not necessarily mean altering church doctrines or biblical theology. However, discovering how the community our church serves has changed may call for adaptation of style and behaviour. Taking the time to consider what we can do to help individuals meet new expectations will make our congregations a place of leadership in the community. Patterns help predict the future. The future includes men with their children. That is good news for husbands, wives and children. Being relevant to busy couples who want to put family first means helping them move beyond the traditional role models of the 1950s and move with the new needs
of families in the 21st century. Having church leaders aware of the importance

Raiders building for the future By Marty Hastings STAFF REPORTER
sports@kamloopsthisweek.com
T
HE SCRUMMAGING OF OPINIONS IS OVER. Plans have been finalized and fundraising is underway for a new clubhouse at the Kamloops Rugby Club (KRC) Raiders’ home on the Tournament Capital Ranch in Rayleigh. The estimated cost of the clubhouse is $1.4-million. “Our focus is to rebuild the junior and the mini [youth] programs that we used to have — and the facility is the key,” said Andy Fraser, clubhouse committee chairman. “It’s been a long grind to get even to this point and we’ve got a long way to go. The multiple plans that were floating around were creating too much noise.” The Raiders have been without a clubhouse for two years. Their lease was up at 471 Chilcotin Rd., where there was a bare-bones clubhouse on site, and the rugby club could not afford the going rate to remain on the property, Fraser said. Portables, along with makeshift showers, toilets and storage containers, have been moved to the Ranch, which the club has called home since fall of 2012. Hosting visiting teams is an integral part of club rugby worldwide. Opponents aim to destroy each other on the field — then, at match’s end, the two sides mingle and chat about their lumps and bruises over a few cold ones, often in a clubhouse, generally after a hot shower. There was a period of time in Rayleigh when KRC opposition — most often coming from the Lower Mainland — was asked after games to bathe in the North Thompson River. The post-game festivities would be — and still are — held outdoors, where players and spectators alike sit on bleachers and park benches, which isn’t a terrible thing unless the weather doesn’t co-operate. The setup is not ideal for men’s

and women’s rugby and it’s less than desirable for youth rugby. “Without a proper facility that has the basic amenities, it’s really hard to attract mom and dad to come out on a Sunday morning, when there’s nothing for them to do while the kids are running around,” Fraser said. “We’ve designed our dream, the ultimate for the club, and, while we understand we may not be able to achieve everything we want, we’re going to fundraise and see what we can come up with. “We’re trying to stick with the ideal vision. To be able to get that would be amazing.” Among the features of the openconcept clubhouse with a large patio viewing area will be built-in outdoor seating, four changing rooms, washrooms, a storage area and an indoor serving space with plenty of real estate on which to socialize. “We want to make it something the local and regional community can use and rent out for whatever they want to do,” Fraser said. “We’re trying to make the upper
room as nice and as big as we possibly can. We want it to be usable for other sports and community groups.” The KRC also needs a clubhouse to host its own fundraising events, which help keep the club afloat financially. The prospect of an enhanced spectator experience — including an entrance tunnel to the field from the clubhouse — has Fraser buzzing. “In professional rugby, you often see the teams standing side by side in the tunnel, then running out to the crowd’s adulation so, we thought, let’s give this a big-league feel by doing something like that. “It gets everybody jazzed up.” Plans are one thing. Execution is another. In a perfect world, Fraser said, construction would begin in 2014 and there would be “something in place, at least the beginnings,” by this time next year. “It’s all dependent on money raised,” said Fraser, the club’s secretary. “We don’t want to start digging a big hole and then leave it and not
have any more money, so it depends on how much we can get and how soon we can get it. “Companies have committees that look at this stuff, but they usually look at it quarterly or every six months. Sometimes money flows, but it goes through a corporate process.” Businesses or individuals interested in looking at sponsorship packages, many of which include rewards to donors, can email Fraser at afraser@bclc.com. The club is also pursuing any available grant applications and donations of in-kind services. Greg Thomson, Chris Chan, Nick Smith, Kirby Robillard and Tony Stobie are also on the clubhouse committee. There were disagreements about plans for the new facility among opinionated KRC members, but they all share the same love for the club. Arguments about design — at one point there was talk of transporting a log cabin to the Ranch from Vernon — might not be a thing of the past, but they’ve been rendered

irrelevant for the future. Focus has turned to building a facility that will serve the club, young and old members alike, attract other community groups and be suitable to host tournaments and provincial training camps. The rugby-club pitches, thanks in large part to the City of Kamloops, are already among the best in the province and the surrounding landscape provides a lovely setting for the game. Now the Raiders need a building to call their own. “We’re just trying to get some buzz and excitement,” Fraser said. “The committee that we have right now is working really hard, but we need a lot of help from the rest of the membership. “It’s not guys like me that are old and past their playing years that are going to help us out in 20 years. Our key to success are the juniors and the kids. “That’s the key to the future of the club and we need a proper facility.”

About 10,000 kilometres and a continent away, Brazil is embarking on the first day of its month-long stretch as host nation of the 2014 FIFA World Cup. The whole world will be watching and the Tournament Capital is no exception. The 20th incarnation of the tournament, awarded every four years since its inception in 1930 — omitting 1942 and 1946 because of the Second World War — kicks off today (June 12) with a match between Brazil and Croatia. Games are taking place across 12 cities in the country. For many Kamloops soccer fans, today’s match marks not only the beginning of the tournament, but the beginning of Brazil’s run to the final as the host. Women’s soccer specialists Tom McManus, coach of the Thompson
Rivers University WolfPack, and Kelly Shantz, coach of the Kamloops Heat, gave KTW identical picks the day before the tournament opener. Both bench bosses chose a final including Germany and Brazil, with Germany emerging victorious. Perhaps more surprising, both coaches chose Belgium as their darkhorse nation. “I think they’re going to be a quality team with the players they’ve got,” McManus said of Belgium. “With [Vincent] Kompany leading the charge for them, I think they’ll be very good.” Shantz echoed McManus’ sentiments. “[Romelu] Lukaku, Eden Hazard, who plays for Chelsea, they’re young, they’re vibrant, they’re attacking, they’ve surprised to get in the tournament at the level they’re at and I think they’ll be overlooked,” he said.
WolfPack men’s soccer coach John Antulov took a different angle, selecting Argentina as his tournament favourite. Antulov noted Brazil and Spain will also be contenders and he, too, selected Belgium as his darkhorse. Ciaran McMahon, technical director of the Kamloops Youth Soccer Association, was garbed in an England jersey when he spoke with KTW, but was realistic about his team’s chances. If his favourite is on the outside looking in, the Englishman is picking a Spain-Germany final. McMahon went off the board with his darkhorse pick, going with Ghana and the Ivory Coast. Frank Salituro, former coach, player and referee, is also on the Argentina bandwagon, while riding the Netherlands as his darkhorse. It was tough for Salituro to make his pick as the local soccer expert
would prefer to see the Italians hoist the FIFA World Cup Trophy. Sadly, he’s not betting on the Mediterranean Marvels. Fans in the River City will have their pick of places to catch the action daily. On the Rocks Pub and Grill will be giving away a soccer jersey a day while it shows the action. The Shark Club Sports Bar and Grill will be showing all the matches as well and will carry the theme of the tournament throughout the month, with its staff dressed in World Cup wear. On Saturday, June 14, it will play host to a Brazil party in honour of the event. Colombo Lodge, Fox’n Hounds Pub, The Commodore Grand Café and Lounge and Frick and Frack Tap House are also among venues showing the action this month.
Burnaby Bulldogs become KIBT’s eighth team The Kamloops International Baseball Tournament will be back with a vengeance in 2014. Organizers released the tournament’s official list of teams on Wednesday, June 11, which included an eighth and final entry — the Burnaby Collegiate Bulldogs.
Games will be held at the Tournament Capital Ranch. KIBT’s top four teams will leave the tournament with money in hand — first will net $10,000, second $4,500, third $1,500 and fourth $750. Kamloops’ first game will be played on July 10 at 11:45 a.m. against Red Deer.
The Bulldogs will join the Kamloops Sun Devils, Red Deer Riggers, Seattle Studs, Thurston County Senators, Nanaimo Coal Miners, Everett Merchants and North West Honkers. The tournament is scheduled to run from Thursday, July 10, to Sunday July 13.

Foulds: There will never be another 1994
T
HIS YEAR MARKS THE 20th anniversary of the Last Great Sports Year. For fans of the Vancouver Canucks, B.C. Lions, Montreal Expos — Canada’s team (sorry Blue Jay fans) — and your Kamloops Blazers, the magical year of 1994 can never be duplicated. Yes, it is possible the Canucks will advance to Game 7 of a thrilling Stanley Cup final, the Lions will win the Grey Cup at home, the Expos will return to Montreal and boast the best record in Major League Baseball and the Blazers will hoist the Memorial Cup. But, all in the same year? And all amid the most amazing of circumstances? Not likely. It was the sheer excitement of that year, coupled with the likeability factor associated with those teams, that has left 1994 alone as the magic year for Lotusland sports fans. Sure, the Canucks iced excellent teams in the past few years and came within one win of claiming the Stanley Cup in 2011 — but the team was rather unlikeable (just ask Mark Recchi) and simply nowhere near as captivating as that 1994 squad. From McLean’s save of the century to Bure’s goal (and elbow) of the millennium to Captain Canuck’s bloodied visage after the epic Game 6 at Pacific Coliseum (the greatest game in Canucks’ history),
to Mighty Pat Quinn and his ever-present cigar, to those fantastic uniforms that make me detest today’s orca togs all the more — those CHRISTOPHER FOULDS ‘94 Canucks and their rivetNewsroom ing run remain MUSINGS unmatched by any other collection of players that has worn the team’s uniform over the span of four decades. The playoff run was mind-boggling, the final against New York ridiculously enthralling and the last-minute Nathan Lafayette shot ringing off the post in Madison Square Garden indescribably heartbreaking. What followed was the requisite riot and, five months later, redemption in the form of the B.C. Lions defeating an all-American Baltimore squad on Lui Passaglia’s field goal on the last play of the game. The Leos’ victory at home capped the most-remarkable and most-exciting playoff run in CFL and, dare I say, NFL history. The underdog Lions travelled to Edmonton for the West semifinal and were all but done — until Charles Gordon intercepted an ill-advised Damon Allen
pass near the end of the game at the B.C. goal line. What followed was a winning Passaglia field goal in the final 30 seconds to advance to the West Final in Calgary. There, against Doug Flutie and the arrogant Wally Buono (believe me, there was no single CFL personality more hated by Lions’ fans in 1994 than Stampeder head coach Buono), the Lions were again all but finished. But, the snow fell, Ray Alexander reached into the heavens, Danny McManus zoned in on Darren Flutie and the Lions’ last-minute march down the field to record a final-play TD left the entire football nation in shock. As for those Expos, well, to this day they remain the 1994 World Series champions in my mind. Montreal had the best record in baseball — 74-40 — when a players’ strike ended the dream in August. Would the Expos have won the title? With Jeff Fassero, Moises Alou, Larry Walker, Pedro Martinez, Delino Deshields, Wil Cordero, Mike Lansing and Marquis
Grisson in the field and the peerless Felipe Alou on the bench? Oui. That glorious year of 1994 also featured your Kamloops Blazers winning the Memorial Cup in Laval. The interesting aspect of the club’s win was the fact the Blazers won all three round-robin games and the title tilt by scoring five goals in each and every game — 5-4 over Laval, 5-0 over Chicoutimi, 5-1 over North Bay and, in the final, 5-3 over Laval. Believe me, kids, the Last Great Sports Year was beyond special, which is why the aforementioned stories are preserved for all time in various VHS tapes in my collection. What is a VHS tape, you ask? Only the Last Great Recording Device — but that’s fodder for a future column. Foulds stepped in today for Marty Hastings. The Tattle of Hastings appears in KTW on Thursdays.

and Violet Manuel, who is in Grade 10, was recognized as an excellent scrum half. The Vikings’ golf squad finished 13th at provincials in Qualicum Beach.

Eddie Ohashi, 78, is a recent graduate of the Street School in Kamloops. Dave Eagles/KTW
Over 100 graduate from Kamloops’ alternate schools this year By Dale Bass
STAFF REPORTER dale@kamloopsthisweek.com
E
DDIE OHASHI waited a long time to hold his Dogwood certificate in his hands — more than 60 years. However, the 78-year-old Brocklehurst resident finally has it, part of the 52 graduating students from the city’s street school this year.
Born in Vernon, he left school after Grade 10 and went to work in area farms. Eventually, he got a job in the accounting department of the W.H. Malkin Company, a grocery firm in the province that closed its doors in the early 1970s. The food industry became his career choice until Nov. 28, 1998, when he retired. It always bothered, him,
though that he didn’t have his diploma. The Kamloops-Thompson school district street school seemed the answer and Ohashi registered earlier this year, knuckling down to get his work done, his homework finished, his questions answered and his tests passed. “I thought, here’s my chance, so I decided to give it my best shot,” he said.
School was different than what he remembered — and “jeepers, very difficult. When I think 60 years back, though, all I learned at that time was helpful.” The street school, which operates out of the basement of St. George’s Anglican Church on Royal Avenue, is one of several in the system that provide education in a somewhat different manner.

The school district offers classes at the Kamloops Regional Correction Centre, as well as at Twin Rivers Education Centre and Four Directions Storefront School, the last two housed in the former George Hilliard elementary building. Combined, the four saw about 100 graduates this year, said assistant superintendent Karl deBruijn. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 100 people who, without those programs, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t graduate,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding the ceremonies at the alternative and adult-education schools are some of his most favourite each year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These are people who have taken a different pathway to education. Last year, we had a father and daughter graduate and the dad jumped the stage ahead of his daughter so he could say he graduated
before her.â&#x20AC;? Ken Brewer, principal of the schools, said they provide education for a combined group of about 700 people each year â&#x20AC;&#x201D; adults and youth. He praised the programming for helping people when â&#x20AC;&#x153;life has gotten in the way of their education path.â&#x20AC;? Street school has tutors, many of them retired teachers, who complement what he called â&#x20AC;&#x153;an incredibly dedicated staff.â&#x20AC;? Ohashi would agree. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The teachers are really good and the support is really good. The tutors are, too,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how they put up with me, but they helped me quite a bit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard work. As you get older, you forget things and your memory span sure disappears. I had an enjoyable sense of learning with such good help. It

Jaimi Garbutt, an environmental educator with the City of Kamloops, will give a free lecture tonight (June 12), on water usage tips and tricks. The session will be at the Big Little Science Centre, 655 Holt St., beginning at 7 p.m. Garbutt will demonstrate where water comes from, where it goes and how it can be conserved. All participants will receive a water-saving device. Other events this week at the centre include a Lego and construction day on Friday, June 13 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the next day Kamloops teachers will be off the job as part of their unionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rotating strikes â&#x20AC;&#x201D; starting at 10 a.m. and continuing to 4 p.m. Children must be accompanied by an adult and standard centre fees apply.

makes it so pleasant.â&#x20AC;? He was dedicated to attending, missing just one day because of sickness. Ohashi said it was essential he had that interaction with his teachers because â&#x20AC;&#x153;I cannot say Mr. Book, what does this mean? You need the teachers to answer your questions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You get that little push and that little help and that little understanding.â&#x20AC;? He was nervous at graduation, but thrilled to get his certificate. And, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not ruling
out more education. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If anybody can teach me something, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll listen,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the way you get ahead. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of people retire and do nothing. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a healthy way to do things . . . Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m glad I went for it. You may never use it, but I know something today I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know yesterday.â&#x20AC;? With summer coming, Ohashiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got his own plans, not that the lessons are done. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll go catch a few fish.â&#x20AC;?

Bursary open until end of June
Applications can still be submitted for for the annual Out of the Ashes bursary program run by the Phoenix Centre. The awards are given to Kamloops residents who have changed their lifestyles, going from addictions to sobriety, and who are pursuing post-secondary education. Applicants must be between the ages of 17 and 35 years old for the two categories of awards, must have a Kamloops home address or have recently moved here to attend an educational program, must have one year of sobriety, not be facing any outstanding charges or incarceration and who must have three letters of support, with contact information, that attest to the applicant’s sobriety. Two of the letters must come from professionals who have worked with the applicants. The program began in 2007, inspired by Ron Kopytko, who discussed his idea of something that would help youth trying to recover their lives to have some help. His wife, Leann, took the idea to her employer, the Phoenix Centre. The first year, one bursary of $2,500 was awarded. Last year, five were given out for $2,500 each. The program is funded only by donations and the value of the bursaries varies, depending on donations. More information for applicants or potential donors is available online at phoenixcentre.org under the programs tab. Information is also available by calling 250-374-4634. The deadline to apply is Monday, June 30.

Fathers are important to baby’s development
I
T’S ALMOST Father’s Day, a time when many of us reflect warmly on the role our fathers and grandfathers have played in our lives. It’s no secret dads are important and that their role as caregivers has, for many families, broadened in the last 50 years. But, there’s one period of our development where dads tend to take a back seat — the first nine months, to be precise. While still in the womb, babies are generally considered to be the mother’s domain. Fathers are often relegated to a small supporting role: They help around the house, maybe massage mom’s aching back and cater to cravings, but, ultimately, they’re seen as just another observer. However, a growing body of research shows us fathers can have a much deeper influence on their children in utero than previously expected. Recently, several researchers conducted a study examining what effect support from
spouses had on pregnant mothers’ responses to stress. To do this, researchers asked participating mothers a series of questions assessing the support they get from their husbands/partners — how much of it, how easily they provided it and how effective it was at getting them through life’s challenges. Next, they collected a series of saliva samples from mothers at various times of day. These samples provide a relatively non-intrusive way to measure levels of cortisol, a hormone generated by the body in times of stress. During collection periods, mothers answered more questions, these ones assessing their level of psychological distress, defined as feelings of anger, anxiety, depression or fatigue. Through data, researchers observed the relationship between the stress hormone cortisol and psychological distress. Sure enough, when mothers were distressed, their samples showed higher levels of cortisol — but, only if they also scored low on measures
of support from their partners. Moms with supportive spouses showed consistently low cortisol levels, regardless of how upset they may have been when the sample was taken. Fathers didn’t stop mothers from feeling upset or anxious from time to time, but their support directly affected how their partners’ bodies reacted to and dealt with that anxiety. At first glance, this might not seem like a big deal. If you still feel the distress, what difference does the presence of a few natural chemicals make? To your baby, a great deal indeed. In sustained doses, cortisol can weaken children’s developing brain architecture. Brains are like houses; their upper storeys — the reasoning and cognitive skills — can only stand when the foundation beneath them is solid. Cortisol, if left unchecked, erodes this foundation and can lead to all kinds of psychological, emotional and even physical problems, many of which linger into adulthood. More troubling still, the
mechanism that controls the flow of cortisol in our bodies — the stress-response system — doesn’t fully develop until a few years after we’re born. Until that time, parents are responsible for modulating their children’s stress levels, making dad’s role all the more important. Of course, support doesn’t come from fathers alone. Though the study looked at
fathers specifically, researchers expect same-sex partners play an identical role in supporting pre-natal development. Furthermore, moms, siblings, parents, friends and extended family can all help bolster mothers in times of stress. We are social beings by nature and all of us, whether consciously or not, have a hand in raising each
other’s children. As we contemplate the support and guidance our fathers have given us throughout our lives, it might be worth thinking a bit further back than we normally do where dads are concerned — further back, indeed, than we can even remember. troymedia.com

F THERE WAS ANY QUESTION THE Fleetwood Country Cruize-In is Canada’s largest outdoor car show, those doubts were washed away by noon on Saturday, June 7. By that time, there were an estimated 3,500 cars on the show grounds with another 3,000 on rented fields in and around the 110-acre estate/farm of Steve Plunkett, just south of London, Ont. I have been going to this event yearly and I know my way around. This year, I went early at 8 a.m., only to arrive and find cars lined up a kilometre long in all four directions. I opted to park the car I was driving, a 2014 Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet, in one of the many rented visitor parking areas and walked in. At noon, the cars and pedestrians were still coming and, by the end of the day, something like 10,000-plus people were enjoying balmy temperatures and a cloudless sky. And, that was only the first day of the annual June event, now 10 years old. Going to what I believe is one of the best collector-car shows in the world deserves a special vehicle and the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet qualifies on every count. Painted in silver — perfect — and fit with full leather in black and Carrera Red, its 3.8-litre flat six-cylinder pumps out a prodigious 560 h.p. and 516 lb/ft of torque. It is a civil, even docile car to drive. That is — until you hit the Sport Plus button on the transmission tunnel and activate Launch Control. It’s just what is implies, and you come off the line like being shot out a howitzer. With a car like this, it’s always wise to behave because its big wing at the rear deploys at anything over 75 km/h — and both the wing and the car attract attention. On Friday, June 6, travelling along Highway 402 and heading to the Fleetwood event via the back way — through Delaware — an OPP vehicle going in the opposite direction did a U-turn and started following me. I had set my cruise control for the speed limit, but he inched up beside me and looked over nonetheless. I waved. He smiled and continued on his way and I headed over to see Plunkett and get some early pictures,. The Fleetwood Country Cruize-in began humbly a decade ago when 60 collector car owners got together for a cruise night at Plunkett’s place. He is a collector of Cadillacs. All Cadillacs used have Fleetwood bodies, thus the Fleetwood name. In his own museum, called Fleetwood Hall, he always has several of his V12 and V16 pre-war Cadillacs on display and that doesn’t count the scores of post-war 1950s and 1960s models he has in his collection. At that fateful cruise night, talk got around about having a place for people to show off their cars. No — not just hyper restored vehicles that come and go to events on trailers, but everyday cars people are proud to own. “It started with 60 cars and two cases of Coke,” Plunkett said. “The next year we had 400 cars and then it just grew out of control.” X See NEXT B11

It costs $10 to walk or drive in — all proceeds go to London-area charities. This year, it is estimated a total of $1,250,000 will have been raised to date. Speaking on Saturday, Plunkett said, “I think we set a record today. It’s going to be the biggest one yet.” But, what many of those attending did not know was this year’s event almost didn’t happen.

A crowd favourite is George Barris, the King of the Kustoms and the creator of iconic TV and movie cars like the Munstermobile, General Lee for the Dukes of Hazzard and the Starsky and Hutch undercover police car.

With probably every extra in the factory, some of the standouts were carbon brakes at all corners, rear axle steering, torque vectoring and 20-inch wheels with 20-section tires looking more like big rubber bands with a staggering price of $228,215 including the $1,085 shipping fee. But, it was oh-so-perfect for getting to Fleetwood once again. The real beauty of the Fleetwood Cruize is, despite being super organized, it feels so relaxed — more like a big wedding with
time, money and organization, Plunkett told a few people last year he was shutting the event down. It was just too big. When word got out, the calls came in telling him the show was just too important to end. So, yes, there will a Fleetwood Cruize-in next year. “I’m thinking about a Dukes of Hazzard theme,” Plunkett mused over a hurried lunch. “I’m not saying I’m doing it, but I am thinking about it.” As I plopped myself into the 911 Cab and headed home, I started taking stock

The iconic design and shape of the world’s largest-selling vehicle, Honda’s Super Cub
As Ford Mustang has evolved over five decades and six generations, much has changed. Yet, certain visual cues that tie the latest model back to the originals recur, just as facial features like the slant of a nose or the shape of the eyes repeat themselves in any family. In fact, examining six generations of Mustang-design heritage is very much like going back through generations of a family album. Children inherit and blend the features of both parents, while also showing threads of continuity. Similarly, each generation of car designers and the era they work in brings new flavors to Mustang while maintaining the nature of the brand. Visual presence, performance and accessibility have been at the core of Mustang’s popularity from the moment it went on sale on April 17, 1964, establishing its place in the automotive and cultural pantheon. With 22,000 orders on the first day of availability and more than nine-million sales over 50 years, Mustang quickly developed a global following. Starting with its long hood, short rear deck proportions, Ford designers have identified the DNA elements that combine to create the Mustang look. Details such as the trapezoidal grille, sharkbite nose, tri-bar taillamps, hockey stick side profile and twin eyebrow dashboard have all been recurring themes throughout six generations of Mustang. The fastback profile has always telegraphed the strongest visual message about Mustang’s performance, while the convertible adds to the visceral appeal with top-down driving.

Mitsubishi Canada has teamed up with Orangeville’s Brian Donato, a paraplegic driver, to tackle the arduous Targa Newfoundland road rally this September. Donato — along with his Roll With It Racing trainer, navigator and Canadian endurance-racing star Rick Bye — will enter the Fast Tour Class in a 2014 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart sedan. The journey begins in St. John’s and covers the challenging roads of eastern and central Newfoundland before returning to the capital in a five-day, 1,550-kilometre test of endur-
Ford’s new steering adapts to vehicle speed
Ford is bringing to market a new generation of steering technology that will help make vehicles easier to manoeuvre at low speeds and in tight spaces. Available in Europe next year, the new technology at higher speeds will help make the vehicle more agile and fun to drive. Adaptive steering changes the ratio between the driver’s actions at the steering wheel — the number of turns — and how much the front wheels turn. In traditional vehicles, this is a fixed steering ratio. With Ford’s new steering, the ratio continually changes with vehicle speed, optimizing the steering response in all conditions. At lower speeds, such as when pulling into a parking space or manoeuvring in tight quarters, the new system makes the vehicle more agile and easier to turn, as it dials more steering into the road wheel. Each low-speed manoeuvre requires less turning of the steering wheel. At highway speeds, the system further optimizes steering response, enabling the vehicle to react more smoothly and precisely to driver input to make the journey more enjoyable. Ford’s system uses a precision-controlled actuator placed inside the steering wheel, and requires no change to a vehicle’s traditional steering system. The actuator — an electric motor and gearing system — can essentially add to or subtract from a driver’s steering inputs. The result is a better driving experience at all speeds, regardless of vehicle size or class.
