‘This is a wake-up call’ By Cam Fortems STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

The chief of Neskonlith Indian Band will hand-deliver an “eviction” notice today at the Vancouver office of Imperial Metals in wake of its Mount Polley tailings breach. “This is a wake-up call,” said Neskonlith chief Judy Wilson. “Our chiefs have said there’s a moratorium and there should be no exploration.” Shuswap Nation Tribal Council has called for a freeze on JUDY WILSON mining development and exploration in its traditional territories after a tailings breach spilled millions of litres of contaminated water into Polley Lake, Hazeltine Creek and Quesnel Lake. Interior Health Authority recently declared the water outside the immediate zone at Mount Polley is safe to drink and fish are so far unaffected. Imperial Metals has applied for permits to develop the Ruddock Creek mine, located in an alpine area about 28 kilometres east of Avola. The tailings area is located in the North Thompson River watershed. The company proposed to store thickened tailings in nearby Light Lake for the first six months, fol-

Earlier this month, the Conservative government allowed a substitution of the federal review for Ruddock Creek mine in favour of a review by the province of B.C. The province’s Environmental Assessment Office will now do all the reviews and B.C. cabinet ministers will have the final say on whether the proposed lead-zinc mine will proceed.

At the urging of the province, the federal government amended legislation in 2012 allowing for substitution of environmental reviews. “In general, we think the federal government has an important role to play for a number of reasons,” Hart said. “They have the expertise and the independence from the on-the-

ground politics.” Hart also noted the Shuswap bands opposed the substitution. “When you ignore the rights of concerns of First Nations, it’s a good recipe for delays, review and legal cases.” A recent Supreme Court of Canada ruling gives First Nations much stronger rights on traditional territory, akin to private property but without ability for easy expropriation by government. Wilson said neither the province nor company have adequately consulted with the band, which does not have the resources to hire its own experts on complex mining files. “It’s right in our watershed,” Wilson said. “We’re still very much opposed to Ruddock Creek.”

The B.C. government is hoping for a boost to the province’s lumber markets after signing a memorandum of understanding with a Chinese province to increase wood-frame construction. The memorandum, signed Aug. 13, calls on the governments of B.C. and Zhejiang province, located on China’s eastern coast, to work together to promote wood-frame construction for public buildings and home renovations. Promotion will include developing building and fire codes and standards for wood-frame construction in Zhejiang and organizing knowledge exchanges. The MOU is valid for the next five years. Zhejiang sees woodframe construction as more sustainable, in keeping with the eco-friendly image the province wants to project to tourists. Up to now the province has favoured cement construction. B.C. Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resources Steve Thomson said the MOU is an “important step” in B.C.’s relationship with the province, which has the fourth highest GDP in all of China. “It will help us continue to build a market there and increase the value of wood products to these markets,” he said.

Man shot in face doesn’t feel safe in jail By Tim Petruk

STAFF REPORTER

tim@kamloopsthisweek.com

In the three weeks since Manny Brooks was released from jail in July, he’s been shot in the face, beaten with a baseball bat and re-arrested. Now, he wants back out — because he doesn’t feel safe behind bars. The 23-year-old Kamloops man was picked up by police on Monday, Aug. 11, after allegedly showing up at his grandmother’s house armed with a golf club. Court heard Brooks swung the club at the house and its surroundings, breaking pots and damaging a door. He claimed he was looking for his neck brace and pain medication — both of which he was given after being shot in the face in a North Kamloops home on Aug. 2. Brooks claims he was shot by a gang member who was mad at him for talking to a girl. Court heard the bullet entered Brooks’ left cheek and lodged near his spine. Defence lawyer Don Campbell said the emergency-room surgeon who treated his client told him he would have died if the shot had been fired a centimetre to the left. Campbell also said doctors are hesitant to remove

the bullet because of its delicate position near Brooks’ spine and the potential surgery could leave him paralyzed. Court heard Brooks showed up at his grandmother’s house with a golf club because he had been beaten with a baseball bat by an uncle the previous day. Campbell said Brooks is being pressured by police to provide information about his shooter — something that could potentially place him in harm’s way at Kamloops Regional Correctional Centre. “Police have been asking him for details of the shooting,” he said. “And, there are obviously people at KRCC who would be happy to interfere with Mr. Brooks. So, it’s put him in a difficult position.” The Crown wants Brooks detained pending the outcome of his latest charges, while Campbell wants him released to live with a family friend in Kamloops or an aunt in 100 Mile House. Kamloops provincial court Judge Stella Frame asked Campbell to provide more information about Brooks’ potential living arrangements if he were to be granted bail. She had not given a decision on his release as of KTW press time.

CLARIFICATION A story published on Tuesday, Aug. 12, on a theft from a bait car, notes John Bednar was found guilty. He is not the John Bednar who lives on Pine Crescent.

Fish near Mount Polley disaster deemed OK By Cam Fortems STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

Interior Health Authority has declared all fish outside a small red zone near the Mount Polley mine in the Cariboo — including the Fraser River’s sockeye salmon run — are safe to eat. The agency spoke with other provincial and federal departments in coming to the decision Tuesday (Aug. 12). “I have consulted with numerous experts in this

Interior Health says area fish are fine to eat; Ministry of Environment will keep monitoring field, and I am reassured that the current fish living in these waterways, and those that may travel through it via the Fraser River or spawn in it are safe to consume,” said Dr. Trevor Corneil, a medical-health officer with IHA.

tailings dam, including Polley Lake, Hazeltine Creek and a small portion of Quesnel Lake that has a visible plume of sediment. The decision comes after both water and fish-tissue sampling by government agencies following the Aug. 4 breach. IHA said testing thus far has shown no harm to fish.

Ministry of Environment will continue to test fish and First Nations Health Authority will conduct its own tests using an independent evaluator. IHA said it is helping to develop a long-term sampling program to recognize potential for cumulative impacts of contaminants on fish.

Casino told to be ready for questions on traffic By Andrea Klassen STAFF REPORTER

andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com

Gateway Casinos will stick to a trafficimprovement plan devised by the city of Kamloops when its bid to build an expanded casino at the former Rona store in Aberdeen goes to a public hearing next week. Gateway wants to move Lake City Casino on Victoria Street to 1555 Versatile Dr., which it bought earlier. The new casino would have more dining options, expanded gambling, a 500-seat amphitheatre and a new name, Cascades Casino. City staff have recommended against the plan, pointing to policies that favour keeping

entertainment options downtown. Earlier this month, city council agreed to give the plan a public hearing but told Gateway to expect questions on how it will alleviate traffic congestion in the area — an issue flagged by many in the Aberdeen area. Tanya Gabara, public-relations director for Gateway, said the company is in favour of a traffic solution drafted by the city, ICBC and Ministry of Transportation, which would include a roundabout and new turn lanes. Who would pay for the major improvements, however, is still in question.

Gateway Casinos is expected to talk about how it will deal with traffic if allowed to move its downtown casino to the now-vacant Rona property in Aberdeen. KTW file photo

“We’re still working with the city to figure out costs and that kind of thing. “We’ve just determined what the solution would be,” Gabara said, adding the casino sees itself as “accelerating” road improvements the city would other-

wise make in the next decade. “We want the solution to happen prior to us going in there,

obviously, because it’s easier and there’s less disruption to our clients once we’re open, so we’re accelerating that

plan,” she said. Gabara said Gateway’s traffic study predicts its peak traffic time would be between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m., outside of the peak hours of other businesses in the area. Gateway estimates the casino would generate about 523 car trips per hour during its peak time, which it says is much lower than what other nearby businesses draw. Gabara said details around the timing of the upgrades and their funding would likely come once more engi-

neering and design work is completed. The public hearing is on Tuesday, Aug. 19, at 7 p.m. at the Coast Kamloops Hotel and Conference Centre, 1250 Rogers Way. Members of the public can also comment on the project in advance by writing or emailing City Hall by no later than 4 p.m. on Aug. 18. Gateway CEO Tony Santo told media last month if it gains the necessary city approvals, Cascades could be built within 12 to 15 months.

Husband and wife accused Drug dealer not guilty of extortion in drug ring plead not guilty By Cam Fortems STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

By Cam Fortems STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

The Crown has now added the wife of a central figure in what RCMP allege is a gangaffiliated drug ring to the list of those facing charges. RCMP seized guns, money, electronics and a small amount of drugs from the Sahali home in May where Jason Robertson lived with his wife, Sarah, and their two young children. He was one of seven people arrested following a three-month investigation. Following his arrest, Jason Robertson was released on $100,000 of bail and must report daily to the probation office. He faces 35 weapons, property and drug charges. Sarah Robertson now faces about 30 similar charges. The pair entered not guilty pleas during a brief appearance in Kamloops provincial court this week.

Crown lawyer Sarah Firestone said the charges against Sarah Roberston were based on the fact the material seized by police, including $50,000 in cash, was found in the Sahali home where the couple lived. On May 7 and May 8, police executed search warrants on three Kamloops homes owned by Robertson â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one in Sahali, one in Westsyde and one in Batchelor Heights. RCMP Supt. Brad Mueller said during an RCMP press conference following the raid that Mounties seized about 10 ounces of cocaine, 15 pounds of marijuana, various drug-trafficking paraphernalia, thousands of dollars worth of electronics and 40 firearms. Mueller would not say which criminal organization the alleged drug-trafficking ring was linked to, but Hells Angels support stickers were among the seized items shown to reporters.

A violent criminal who gave details in B.C. Supreme Court about operating a drug network in Kamloops last year was acquitted on charges he threatened another drug dealer, beat him and stole his truck. Justice Hope Hyslop said the Crown did not prove beyond a reasonable doubt Trevor Taylor is guilty of extortion, robbery and using an imitation firearm. The Crownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s case relied on the testimony of Jody Honeyman, described by defence lawyer Don Campbell as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;self-admitted drug dealer.â&#x20AC;? Hyslop called his tes-

timony â&#x20AC;&#x153;contradictoryâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;riddled with canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t remember,â&#x20AC;? describing Honeymanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attitude on the witness stand as cavalier. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believe very little of what Mr. Honeyman states,â&#x20AC;? she said in her ruling. By contrast, she said Taylor, 29, was mannerof-fact and straightforward on the witness stand about his drug-dealing network in Kamloops in 2013. He described overseeing a network of drug dealers selling cocaine, heroine and methamphetamine. While stating â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think I was told the whole truth by Mr. Taylor,â&#x20AC;? Hyslop said enough doubt exists that she cannot convict him of the crimes. The Crown alleged on Oct. 10 last year Taylor

confronted Honeyman, part of his drug-dealing network, and demanded payment for drugs he was provided. Honeyman reported to police and testified Taylor assaulted him and showed a gun tucked into his pants before making off with his pickup, recovered by police hours later. Taylor testified he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t in Kamloops on that evening and denied taking anything from Honeyman. Instead, he claimed Honeyman agreed to drive him around the city for about $250 a day to work off more than $3,200 in drug debts. While Honeyman told police he suffered injuries, including being burned by a torch on his pants, Hyslop

noted he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t able to provide photographic evidence and did not ask police to take him to hospital. Both men have criminal records. In Taylorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s case, that includes for obstruction of a police officer, armed robbery, drug trafficking, assault and obstruction of justice. Sheriffs employed high security on Tuesday, Aug. 12, for the decision and, throughout the trial, screened all members of the gallery for weapons. The measure came after Taylor was arrested recently following a gang-related shooting at a Burnaby shopping mall. His bail was revoked after the new charges and he remains in jail.

Passenger numbers on the rise at Fulton Field Traveller numbers at the Kamloops Airport are up once again. The airport posted a more than six per cent increase in the number of travellers visiting the airport in July, with 25,102 touching down or taking

off compared to 23,507 in 2013. The number of travellers for the year-to-date is also up almost nine percent. So far, 182,170 travellers have come through the airport, compared to 166,104 in 2013.

In a release, managing director Fred Legace said the July growth is mainly migrating workers, particularly those working resource jobs in northern B.C. or Alberta, and leisure-sector travellers.

Dennis Littleton, 82, says he met his wife back in the “good old days.” It was 1957 in Port Alberni on Vancouver Island. Doris Littleton, 78, says she was having a “legal drink” for her friend’s 21st birthday. They were celebrating at a hotel bar. Dennis was there, too. “He was with a friend who used to date my girlfriend,” Doris says. When Dennis had one too many beers that night, it was Doris who got him home safely. She drove him home and dropped him off. The next day he called her. “He phoned and asked if I

had his car,” Doris says with a laugh. “We got together — it was Sunday — and we spent the day together.” Then, they started dating. Two years later they were married and, shortly after, they moved to the Interior because Dennis was offered a job in Savona. “We’ve lived here ever since,” Doris says, with the exception of a brief stint in Calgary. Doris worked in advertising and retired from the Hudson’s Bay in 1999. She worked at the Kamloops department store when it was housed in the former Kamloops Daily News building on

Seymour Street. Dennis retired in the early 1990s after a career in forestry. The two never had kids. These days, the two can be seen walking for coffee, handin-hand along Lorne Street from their apartment to A&W. They go “first thing” because “when you’re retired, you don’t need to get up.” This year marks 55 years since they were married. And, while they can’t remember the name of the bar in which they first met, nor is it even around anymore, they remember the good old days. For both Dennis and Doris, it was 57 years ago — when they met.

Some illnesses can be beat and some can’t be defeated

WAS AT A WORKSHOP earlier this year addressing mental health and how reporters can — and should — cover it. The session was put on to promote MindSet: Reporting on Mental Health, a wonderful 42-page booklet created through a partnership between the Canadian Journalism Forum on Violence and Trauma, CBC News and the Mental Health Commission of Canada. During the session, some of the panelists referred to people who suffer from mental illness, phrasing we see used regularly in the media. No doubt there are plenty of stories we could find now that talk about how comedian/actor Robin Williams suffered from depression. It came time for questions and mine shot up immediately — but was beaten by another journalists who stood up and listed his health issues, which included addiction, alcoholism and depression. They are all under control, he told the group, and he doesn’t consider himself suffering from them. As with any illness, he has managed with medical help to get them under control, put them into remission, tackle them into submission — whatever terminology one might use to describe someone who was once very sick and is now healthy and has learned to live with the illnesses inside. That’s what depression is, a horrible illness that can spread through one’s mind the way a bacteria can take over a person’s lungs, creating pneumonia, or an aberrant cell can wreak

DALE BASS Street LEVEL havoc to a person’s blood or organs. They each come with their own symptoms, create their own fears and, in some cases, bring their own blackness. That’s a difficult abyss to get out of when it surrounds you, as it can with depression. It’s easy to get lost in the black, to see no light beckoning you, hear no voice calling you, see nothing that might be just the medicine you need to start the fight against the disease. It doesn’t have to be a blazing light — it could be the sound of your baby crying or a loved one calling to us. For a while this week, it felt like the only news happening on the planet was a result of Williams’ death. It led the CBC News the night he was found dead in his California home. I think almost every one of my social-media friends posted a photo, a story, a clip from their favourite Williams film, their own unbelieving shock that someone so funny could succumb to depression. We would have been shocked had he died of some other disease — like

the sudden heart failure that killed John Ritter, the cancer that killed Andy Kaufman, the pneumonia that which killed Bernie Mac — but it wouldn’t have hurt so much. The disconnect comes from trying to rationalize phenomenally funny and full of life with massively depressed and, ultimately, unable to recover from it. The way to understand it and perhaps the one good that can come from the outpouring of media coverage for one person when thousands others die from the disease every year is the discussion on mental illness has taken over the news cycle for a while. We’re hearing the statistics, we’re learning about the symptoms, we’re discovering anyone could become ill from it. Hopefully, we’re learning mental illness is just that — a sickness. Some of us learn to live with it. Some of us do our best to live with it but sometimes ignore doctors’ advice and think we’re cured. We stop taking the medicine. Some of us do everything we’re told, take every medicine we’re prescribed, follow every doctor’s directions to the letter but the illness still wins in the end. We end up staring into that blackness. If we’re lucky, there’s someone nearby who can shine a light, call out, kick in a bathroom door, do what’s needed to battle the illness back down again to help us in our fight. And sometimes that illness is simply terminal. We can fight and fight but, in the end, it’s simply too strong. dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

Redford’s not alone in political arrogance Alison Redford has resigned her seat as an Alberta MLA and she may be taking the Alberta Progressive Conservatives out the door with her. Polls show the party is in rough shape just two years after Redford took it to an historic victory in an election where the PCs had been behind. The PCs are long in the tooth — they have been in office since 1971 under six premiers. They have benefited from the Alberta preference of keeping one party in power for long stretches of time, until the public eventually tires of them. However, the reason Redford resigned as premier and now as MLA was her spending habits. She took arrogance and entitlement to a new level, one rarely seen anywhere in Canada. A remark in the auditorgeneral’s report on her spending habits is worth repeating. Auditor-General Merwan Saher wrote: “How could this have happened? The answer is the aura of power around Premier Redford and her office and the perception that the influence of the office should not be questioned.” That phrase sums up the way most governments in Canada operate. The leader of the party that wins an election quickly cloaks him or herself with an “aura of power” and no one, including other cabinet ministers or government MPs or MLAs, can question their actions. Redford may have taken that “aura of power” into a new stratosphere but she is far from the only government leader to surround herself with one. No wonder Canadians are so cynical about politics.

Speak up You can comment on any story you read @ kamloopsthisweek.com

A selection of comments on KTW stories, culled online

Re: Forever is a long time:

“We cannot forget that the proposed Ajax tailings oond will be three times larger than the one that just breached at Mount Polley. It is much closer to a community, a community of 90,000 people, not just 300 that live in Likely. After KGHM makes its profits and leaves to dig for minerals elsewhere, we will be stuck with that toxic mess and risk of a breach forever. Mount Polley was too close; Ajax is much too big and much too close.” — posted by Nelsonx1

Editor: Re: Aug. 5 letter to the editor, ‘Make no mistake — Hamas is a terrorist group’: I agree with the writer’s facts but not his bias in favour of Israel. Like Premier Christie Clark and the federal government, the letter writer seems to award high marks to Israel for having a democratically elected government — as if this gives it greater moral standing. The Palestinian Authority is also democratically elected; Hamas won the 2006 election and is considered to be the government in the Gaza Strip. It can be argued their elections are perhaps not as fair and open as those in Israel. I don’t know but, for our federal and provincial leaders to refer only to Israel as having a “democratically elected government” is duplicitous.

I also find it interesting the letter writer, our premier and federal spokespeople make reference to Israel justifiably acting in self-defence against attacks. They are justified however no one wants to make mention of the fact Israel has been stealing land from the Palestinians for decades, placing Jewish settlements on it. Are the Palestinians firing rockets in self-defence over unlawful expropriations of their territory? I also take exception to our overuse of the term “terrorist.” We in the West like to label revolutionary groups we don’t like as terrorists but use softer terms like “resistance” and “freedom fighters” for those we approve. As Menachem Begin, Israel’s sixth prime minister, once said: “One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter”.

He would know. As former leader of the ultra-Zionist underground group, Irgun, he orchestrated the bombing of the King David Hotel in Jerusalem in 1946, killing 91 people and injuring 46 others. An argument can be made that Israel was founded on terrorism against the British administrators of Palestine. Is Hamas a “terrorist” organization? For sure it is. Is there a history of “terrorism” in Israel’s past? For sure there is. It is embarrassing the federal government and our premier are so unabashedly and completely in Israel’s corner. I would prefer a more balanced and mature approach, like Canada used to be noted for. Wally McMorland Kamloops

Buy a Blizzard, help save a life Alysa Robinson didn’t spend her birthday at the B.C. Children’s Hospital this year. For the nine-year-old Kamloops girl, that wasn’t cause for celebration. “They decorate her room and they get her a cake and they get her gifts and they just totally make her comfortable,” said her mom, Nicole. “So, she was quite upset she didn’t get to do it this year.” Alysa and her sister Kiana, 6, both have cystic fibrosis, a genetic disease which often leads to persistent lung infections and digestive issues. The girls spend two weeks every three months at Children’s Hospital, though visits over the past year have been more frequent due to extra illnesses and the family was back in Vancouver this week for a nutritional consultation for Kiana. “The girls love it down there,” she said. “There’s times where if

myself and my husband are down there, they actually tell us to leave the room so they can get a volunteer to play. So they’ll kick us out.” Though she wishes Alysa and Kiana hadn’t had to spend so much time there and become so used to the hospital, Nicole said the family is grateful for the care they’ve received from B.C. Children’s staff. “It’s like a second family to us, especially the team,” she said. “We’re down there so often and the care they receive is phenomenal.” Today (Aug. 14), Dairy Queen is raising funds for the Children’s Hospital with its annual Miracle Treat Day. Proceeds from Blizzards sold across the province will support research, education programs and purchases of medical equipment at the hospital. Last year, Miracle Treat Day raised more than $379,000.

FAMILY MATTERS These bighorn sheep — a mom, a dad and two youngsters — were spotted strolling along the roadside on East Shuswap Road, just outside Kamloops city limits. If you live in Sun Rivers, or another area bighorns frequent, you’ll notice they’re becoming more irritable as fall approaches. Allen Douglas/KTW

Anniversary party at Manshadi building on Tranquille There’s a celebration planned at the corner of Tranquille Road and Wood Street on Friday, Aug. 14 — one marking the first anniversary of

the medical clinic there, part of the $8-million construction project by city pharmacist Missagh Manshadi. The public is invited to the centre

between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m., when there will be a barbecue cooking up hot dogs and entertainment to mark the anniversary.

Victim of fatal crash identified B.C. Coroners Service has identified a motorcyclist killed on Victoria Street. Michael Joseph Bourget, 32, died in the Aug. 10 accident. Regional coroner Larry Marzinzik said Bourget was heading eastbound in the 300 block of Victoria Street at 7:10 p.m. when he was fatally injured in a collision that also involved two pickups. The Coroners Service and RCMP are continuing the investigation.

Canning program cooking with receipt of federal grant By Cam Fortems STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

It was the first time Andrea McCurrach and her daughter Lauren ever stepped into a kitchen together to can vegetables. They politely watched Conservative Minister for State for Seniors Alice Wong at Mount Paul United Church on Tuesday, Aug. 12, announce a $25,000 grant for a program intended to integrate seniors into the community. When the politicians and representatives from Interior Community Services were done, the mother-daughter pair quickly slipped into the church’s commercialstyle kitchen and got back to work. “My grandmother canned and it skipped a generation,” said Andrea. “I wanted to show her [daughter Lauren] what it was about.” Overseeing the pair was Sharon Campbell,

who’s done plenty of canning over her lifetime but was also brought up to speed on today’s standards of preparation and safety under the We Can Together program. Interior Community Services will use the grant to operate the program. While the end product comes in a jar, the goal is also to get seniors involved in the community, said the MLA from Richmond. “We are finding there are seniors who are socially isolated,” said Wong. “They may not live alone but they never get out.” McCurrach saw an advertisement for the program in the newspaper. Program co-ordinator Jane HaywoodFarmer said seniors are typically recruited to teach canning through newspaper ads or a local seniors outreach program.

They typically oversee a group of eight to 10 participants.

Valleyview sports box to get an upgrade The sports box at Valleyview Park is getting a tune up next year, thanks to a partnership between the Valleyview Community Association and Marion Schilling school and a $2,000 grant from the Valleyview Lions Club. Community association member Jim Freathy said the plan is to finish the exterior of the sports box and have students from Marion Schilling paint a mural on it to brighten up the area. The association is also hoping it can partner with the city to provide pickle ball play at the site during warmer months. Freathy said work will likely get underway next spring.

FLOOR COVERING

see this system as a problem that had to be solved. It was just another fact of life. The only diplomatic difference in 1914 was the great powers co-ordinated their moves better than before. Almost all of them were at war in a few days, where it would have taken months or even a few years in the old days. The armies could move quickly to the frontiers by rail, so now you created your alliances before the war — and everybody had the telegraph so final decisions were made fast. But, once the war started, everything was different. The armies were 10 times as big as they used to be because these were now rich industrialized countries that could afford to put most of the adult male population into uniform. That meant the soldiers getting killed were fathers, brothers, husbands and sons — part of the community, not the wastrels, drunks and men on the run who made up a large part of the old professional armies. And, they were getting killed in unprecedented numbers. The new weapons — machine guns, modern artillery and so on — were efficient killing machines. They spent the rest of the war trying to break through the trenches and, by the end of it, nine million of them had been killed. That is what changed everything. One response to the ordeal, inevitably,

was to demonize the other side and define the war as a crusade against evil. That way, at least, the ghastly sacrifice of lives could be seen as necessary and meaningful. Many people saw through the propaganda — and some of them were in high places. So, they set out to change it by creating the League of Nations. They outlawed aggressive war and invented the concept of “collective security” to enforce the new international rules. They failed at first because the legacy of bitterness among the losers in the First World War was so great a second one came only 20 years later. That one was bigger and worse — but, at the end, everybody tried again. They had to. The United Nations was founded in 1945 with slightly more realistic rules than the League of Nations but the same basic goal: To stop wars among the great powers, for those are the wars that kill in the millions. Stopping other wars would be nice, but first things first — especially now there are nuclear weapons around. All you can say is it hasn’t failed yet in its main task: No great power has fought any other one directly for the past 69 years. Ignore the headlines that constantly tell you the world is falling apart. The glass is more than half-full. gwynnedyer.com

NATIONAL NEWS

New EI claims put on hold while Ottawa counts jobs OTTAWA — An error in the jobs report issued last week by Statistics Canada has resulted in a freeze on new employment insurance claims. Government officials said Wednesday, Aug. 13, that new EI claims were being put on hold until the agency fixes the mistake. On Tuesday, Statistics Canada said it found an error in its July Labour Force Survey, and that it would issue a revised report on Friday, Aug. 15. The Aug. 8 report said Canada created just 200 jobs in July and that 35,400 people had stopped looking for work. Prior to the release, economists had widely predicted that 20,000 jobs were likely found during the month. The monthly jobs report is used to determine regional unemployment rates, which directly impact the number of weeks an unemployed person needs to have worked in order to

qualify for EI benefits. The freeze is not expected to add to the time it takes to process applications for benefits, said Employment and Social Development Canada spokeswoman Kathleen Martin. “As a result of the correction of the economic regions unemployment rate, there will be no impact to the delivery and processing times of EI claims,’’ Martin said in an email. “The new correct data will be received from Statistics Canada before any benefits are paid out. All employment insurance benefits will be assessed based on the new, correct data once received from Statistics Canada.’’ There is a minimum two-week delay between the time someone applies for EI and when they receive benefits. An official in Employment Minister Jason Kenney’s office said

there should also be no impact on the number of claims that are processed on time, although no new resources would be allocated to compensate for the freeze. The department’s stated goal is to process 80 per cent of claims with 28 days. But it has recently fallen behind that target, processing 74.5 per cent of claims within that time frame, said Nick Koolsbergen. The department said current processing delays are the result of a funding shortfall and “an ongoing high volume of claims.’’ Conservative MP Scott Armstrong launched a review of EI claim processing times in September, shortly after he was named as Kenney’s parliamentary secretary, said Koolsbergen.

KELOWNA — The chatty, socialmedia-savvy robot that’s been thumbing rides with Canadians over the past three weeks is nearing the end of its Halifax-to-Victoria hitchhiking adventure. Its creators say the last time it checked in, early Wednesday morning, Hitchbot was passing through Kelowna on its way to the Open Space art centre on Vancouver Island. “We were expecting the unexpected,’’ said the robot’s co-creator David Smith, who teaches in the department of communication studies at McMaster University in Hamilton. “But, there’s no way that we could have expected the number of really memorable and significant events that Hitchbot participated in.’’ Since its more than 6,000-kilometre journey began in Nova Scotia on July 26, the Wellie-wearing robot has been camping in New Brunswick’s Kouchibouguac National Park, attended a First Nations powwow on Manitoulin Island in Ontario and even crashed a wedding in Golden, B.C. Hitchbot is an interdisciplinary research project conceived by a team of Ontario-based communications researchers studying the evolving relationship between people and technology. “It’s been really, really exciting,’’ said Smith from his office in Hamilton. Hitchbot has dipped its yellow

TORONTO — The Canadian government says experts, not politicians, will decide how donated Canadian Ebola vaccine will be used. Canadian Heritage Minister Shelly Glover says politics has no place in the decisions on how best to use the 800 to 1,000 doses Canada has promised to donate. Canada announced Tuesday, Aug. 12, that it — Canadian Press would redirect hundreds of doses of the experimental vaccine to the outbreak response after the World Health Organization said it would be ethical to use untested therapies in West Africa.

Experts, not politicians, will decide who gets Ebola vaccine according to that country’s Communications Minister Al Houssein Makanera Kake. Glover noted the WHO is convening a panel to work through issues related to how the very limited amounts of experimental vaccines and drugs should be used in this outbreak, the largest on record. As of Aug. 11, 1,975 people have been known to have been infected in this outbreak, and 1,069 have died, the WHO said on Wednesday. To put the outbreak in context, 46 per cent of all known cases of Ebola ever have occurred in this outbreak, which is spreading through Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia and to a limited extent Nigeria. The Canadian-made experimental vaccine, known as VSV-EBOV, was designed as a one-dose vaccine. Research in primates suggests it can be used both to prevent infection and to enhance the chances of survival if given quickly after infection. Dr. Gary Kobinger, the head of the special pathogens program at the Winnipeg lab, said the number of people who could receive the donated vaccine will depend on how much is used to prevent infection — which requires a smaller amount of vaccine — and how many people receive it as post-exposure treatment. In related news, the Burnaby-based company Tekmira Pharmaceuticals said Wednesday it is evaluating options for use of some supplies of its experimental drug, TMK-Ebola. The company has been conducting a clinical trial with the compound. It has not said how much drug it has available, but did say that it would take months to make more when supplies are exhausted. In a statement to investors, the company said there is currently no regulatory framework to use the drug in affected countries. “There can be no assurance that an appropriate framework for the use of this product will be found’’ in the outbreak, Tekmira admitted.

Polygamy charges laid CANADIAN PRESS

CRANBROOK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A special prosecutor has approved polygamy charges against the two leaders of an isolated religious sect in southeastern British Columbia. The B.C. Criminal Justice Branch says Winston Blackmore and James Oler are each charged with polygamy, while Oler is also charged with unlawfully removing a child from Canada. Blackmore and Oler are leaders of separate sects in the religious commune known as Bountiful, where residents follow a fundamentalist form of Mormonism that still holds polygamy as a tenet of the faith. Two other people, Brandon Blackmore and Emily Crossfield, also face charges alleging the removal of a child from Canada. In 2009, polygamy charges against Blackmore and Oler were thrown out over how the prov-

Four Bountiful men set to appear in Creston court in October ince chose a special prosecutor, prompting the government to launch a constitutional reference case that eventually upheld the anti-polygamy law. Peter Wilson was appointed as a special prosecutor in January 2012 to reconsider whether charges should be laid and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be overseeing the case for the Crown. The Criminal Justice Branch said in approving the polygamy charges, Wilson considered evidence previously collected by police and new evidence that had been gathered. The polygamy charges approved against Winston Blackmore and Oler are similar to the charges both men faced in 2009, the branch said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The charges . . . alleging

the unlawful removal of a child from Canada are based primarily on new information that came to light as a result of investigations that unfolded in the United States. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The RCMP obtained a large volume of documentary information seized by investigative authorities in the United States.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; The branch said Wilson declined to approve other criminal charges, such as alleged offences of sexual exploitation, after determining the standard for approving those charges hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been met. The charges were sworn Wednesday morning in the Cranbrook courthouse. First appearances for the four accused are set for Oct. 9 in Creston provincial court.

Fort St. John Mounties launch murder probe after woman killed FORT ST.

Fort St. John RCMP officers responded to a report of a man with a gun and erected a safety perimeter around a building. Police officers entered the building and found a dead woman from Fort St. John and an injured man from Manitoba.

Officers believe the pair knew each other and the act was not random. Police have not released the names of two and are asking anyone with information to come forward. Officers are notifying family of the dead woman. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Canadian Press

White House planning Iraq rescue operation Abuse forces Williams’ daughter WASHINGTON — The United States is planning an international effort to whisk displaced people to safety in Iraq, and it appears Canada may be playing a supporting role. The U.S. says it’s in discussions with Canada, France and Australia about what role those countries might play in helping Yazidis, Iraqi Christians, and others displaced by the advance of Islamist fighters. At a White House briefing in Washington, deputy national

security adviser Ben Rhodes said the U.S. is acting on offers of help from allies, including Canada, and he pointed out that Britain has already provided humanitarian airdrops. The U.S. has stepped up its involvement after tens of thousands of people became stranded on a mountain in northern Iraq, facing starvation and the threat of being killed by Islamist rebels. The U.S. has launched about seven airstrikes in the region, and is now preparing a more elaborate

mission whose details Rhodes said should become clear within days. He also said President Barack Obama, who removed U.S. combat troops from Iraq three years ago, will not be sending them back in. So far, Canada has promised $5 million in aid for Iraqis, with nearly half the money going to international groups like the Red Cross and the rest set to be spent following consultation with allies. — Canadian Press

MICHEAL BOURGET (GORDEY) May 17, 1982 – August 10, 2014 We who care so much must break the terrible news that on Sunday, August 10, 2014 Micheal Joseph Bourget was taken from us. He is survived by his wife Melissa, his sons Seth, Wyatt and Arden, his parents Carolyn and Keith Gordey and Raymond Bourget; brothers Edmond and Brad; nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles and friends too numerous to mention. Micheal, a Kamloops boy born and bred, graduated from Brock Secondary in 2000 before moving on to Mechanics training at S.A.I.T. He achieved a lifelong goal of becoming a Journeyman Mechanic at T.R.U. four years later. While Mike was in his last year of training he met his wife Melissa and fulfilled another lifelong wish to have a family of his own. Melissa, Seth, Wyatt, Arden, (Diesel the family Doberman) and Mike’s 92’ FatBoy would be the family. Micheal had never been happier. When he wasn’t with his family, Micheal (Mouse to his mom) worked at Highland Valley Copper, went fishing with his buddies, rode said FatBoy and would hoist a couple of Kokanee if the time was right. Anyone who knew Mike knew that music was what made Micheal “tick”. He started doing music by playing his guitar and singing Kurt Cobain songs, then went on to write numerous original songs of his own, many of which are on YouTube. All of us who dearly loved Micheal will celebrate his life and accomplishments on Saturday, August 16, 2014 at 2:00 p.m. in the Schoening Funeral Chapel, 513 Seymour Street.

alleged bullies were suspended by Wednesday, Aug. 13. “We will not tolerate abuse of this nature on Twitter,’’ Twitter said in a statement Wednesday afternoon. “We have suspended a number of accounts related to this issue for violating our rules and we are in the process of evaluating how we can further improve our policies to better handle tragic situations like this one. “This includes expanding our policies regarding self-harm and private information, and improving support for family members of deceased users.’’ Last summer, Twitter introduced a one-click button to report abuse and updated its rules to clarify that it will not tolerate abusive behaviour. Zelda Williams also alluded on Instagram to users being hateful following her father’s suicide: “In this difficult time, please try to be respectful of the accounts of myself, my family and my friends. Mining our accounts for photos of dad, or judging me on the number of them is cruel and unnecessary.’’

Each Loss ... Each loss is very diͿerent, The pain is so severe. Will I ever stop missing This one I loved so dear? Good times we had together, The moments that we shared We didn’t have to tell each other How much we really cared. I never dreamed you’d go away, Never thought of sorrow. So sure you’d always be here Took for granted each tomorrow. Now my life is all confused Since you went away. You took a part of me And for help I daily pray. But when God sent you to me He never said that you were mine, That I could keep you always – Only borrowed for a time. Now, He’s called you home, I’m sad and I shed tears. Yet I’m glad He loaned you to me And we had these many years.

Trena was a beautiful lady with nothing but love and kindness for all. She could light up any room with her smile and charisma and found joy in the happiness of others. She was a proud and devoted mother with a remedy for everything. There was nothing she couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fix for her three girls! When she wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t busy being a mother, Trena enjoyed fishing and exploring the outdoors with her beloved husband of 31 years. Trena also found happiness in her garden and loved spending time with our family dog, Bandit. Trena was born in Barrie, Ontario and grew up all over Eastern Canada. She was raised with a passion for hockey and followed the game throughout the years. In her younger age, Trena served in the Military for a number of years and had many successful careers throughout her time. She talked fondly of her involvement with the Military and shared her memories and experiences with her family often. Our family would like to thank the amazing nurses and doctors at Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster for their compassion and attention to Trena and our family during these past few months.

We remember and celebrate the life of Jim who passed away peacefully at home with family by his side on August 9, 2014 after a two and a half year battle with cancer. He is survived by his ever loving wife of 46 years, Ann, and his son, Stephen (Caila). Jim was born in Lisburn, Northern Ireland but lived in Belfast until 1966 when he immigrated to Canada. Initially, Jim lived in Vancouver, but a short time later he moved to Toronto for three and a half years. It was in Toronto where Jim married the love of his life Ann; who had also emigrated from Northern Ireland. In 1970, they moved to Vancouver where they lived for a year; before Jimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work for the Federal Department of Transport required them to move to Sandspit on the Queen Charlotte Islands. Their son, Stephen, was born in Queen Charlotte City in 1972. In the fall of 1975, Jimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career brought him to Kamloops where he remained for the rest of his life. Jimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lifelong hobby was â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ham Radioâ&#x20AC;?. He received his first call sign at the age of 16. His favourite form of communicating across the air waves was by morse code. Through morse code, Jim made many connections that spanned the globe. Jim was a long-time member of the Kamloops Amateur Radio Club. Jimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s other passion was for the outdoors. Shortly after moving to Kamloops, he was a founding member of the Kamloops Mountaineering Club. Jim and Ann loved to hike, bike and canoe together. Jim frequently returned to the Queen Charlotte Islands to kayak along its pristine shores. Jimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ashes will be spread in the Rockies at some future date.

Jehoshaphat appointed For we have no power to face honest judges, rid the land of this vast army that is attacking heathen worship sites and was us. We do not know what to faithful in his devotion to God. do, but our eyes are upon you.” In the book of Second The spirit of the Lord came Chronicles, we read “the Lord upon the Levite Jahaziel. was with Jehoshaphat in his He said: “This is what the early years because . . . his Lord says to you: Do not be heart was devoted to the ways CHRIS KEMPLING afraid or discouraged because of the Lord.” You Gotta Have of this vast army.

Jehoshaphat responded by summoning

“The armies of Moab and Ammon attacked the Meunite fighters and, when they had destroyed them, they started fighting each other, until not a single man was left alive.” The fog of war can lead to fear, confusion, panic and paranoia causing allies to fight one another instead of the enemy. Clearly, this was a divinely inspired “mental ambush” that caused the armies to destroy one another. I find this story inspiring on a number of levels. When a believer is faced with an overwhelming challenge, his first move is to place his faith in God. Secondly, while God declared the fight was His, he expected Jehoshaphat to get his army ready and march out, prepared for battle. God expects us to do our part. We shouldn’t sit back resting on our “blessed assurance,” expecting God to do everything. We have God-given talents and abilities and need to use them to deal with major life challenges. There were two other occasions in the Bible where God directly destroyed an army threatening the nation of Israel. Probably the most famous is when the Egyptian army chased Moses and the Israelites into the Red Sea, which God had parted to allow passage for his people. The sea closed over the Egyptian chari-

ots, drowning the army. The second is when King Hezekiah is besieged by the Assyrian army led by King Sennacherib. Sennacherib personally insulted the God of Israel, declaring he had no power to protect Jerusalem from the might of his armies. King Hezekiah and the prophet Isaiah “cried out in prayer to heaven about this. “And the Lord sent an angel, who annihilated all the fighting men and leaders and officers [185,000 men] in the camp of the Assyrian king.” Some speculate it was a fast-moving plague. I don’t think so. I think the angel sucked the souls right out of their bodies, in response to Sennacherib’s hubris. There will be one more time when the nation of Israel is threatened by an overwhelming force — namely “Gog and Magog” (which some believe represent Iran and Russia/China). It will happen at Megiddo (Armaggedon) in northern Israel. In the book of Revelation, it states those armies will be devoured by fire from heaven. The nation of Israel is under the guardianship of the Archangel Michael and no armies, nuclear bombs, or overwhelming force will ever destroy it. If you want victory, even against a daunting enemy, be faithful, trust God and do your part.

Broncos’ receiver making a name for himself at Hillside By Marty Hastings STAFF REPORTER

sports@kamloopsthisweek.com

IS DAD MINES for copper and gold but, in Rudy Uhl, the Kamloops Broncos believe they’ve found a diamond in the rough. The 18-year-old receiver — whose father is Warner Uhl, KGHM International’s project manager for the proposed Ajax mine, which, if approved, will operate south of Aberdeen — is off to a smelting-hot start. After two games, Uhl has caught six passes for 183 yards and four touchdowns, one of which was a 106yard TD reception, tying the B.C. Football Conference’s longest-pass-reception record, which had stood for 40 years. Read more about the record on page A28. “I didn’t really expect to be doing this well, but it’s nice to have those good stats,” said Uhl, a business student at Thompson Rivers University. “I like the team’s start better. The team has been playing great and when the team is playing great it makes it easy for everyone to do well.”

The Broncos, for the first time since entering the league in 2007, are 2-0 and looking to keep the unbeaten streak alive on Saturday, Aug. 16, when the Valley Huskers of Chilliwack (0-3) are in town. Game time is 7 p.m. at Hillside Stadium. Kamloops has beaten Valley and the Westshore Rebels of Victoria. Both teams are considered to be among the weakest in the six-team league. Uhl, who grew up in Vancouver and attended Windsor secondary, redshirted last season with the UBC Thunderbirds. “It was alright,” Uhl said of his time at Thunderbird Stadium. “It’s hard going from high school and being a starter to practising and not being able to play in games, but it was a good experience, just to get used to university and learning the playbook.” Broncos’ general manager Jan Antons received an email from Uhl’s dad in the off-season which suggested the wideout had interest in making the move to the Tournament Capital. Antons fields plenty of emails from parents, most of whom are confident their

offspring are bound for football stardom, a good number of whom are wrong. It’s part of the GM’s job to help separate the wheat from the chaff. He went to work on Uhl, watching film and speaking with the T-Birds’ head coach, Shawn Olson. “Shawn said he really surprised them when he showed up at rookie camp,” said Antons, whose brother, Nils, suited up for the Kamloops Blazers from 1996 to 1998. “We started heavily recruiting him and took him out for dinner a couple times and chatted about the program and went from there.” Uhl’s plan is to spend

two seasons playing in Kamloops before fielding offers from Canadian Interuniversity Sport schools. “I’d like to go back to UBC but, if I get other offers, I’ll look at them and see what’s the best fit for me,” said Uhl, who works at KGHM. Derek Yachison, who attended training camp with the B.C. Lions in June at Hillside, is the No. 1 receiver on Kamloops’ depth chart. The addition of Uhl has created room for Yachison, who has 11 receptions for 214 yards and one major, and Devin Csincsa, who’s caught eight passes for 111

I hear them,” Uhl said with a laugh. “Nothing too crazy yet.” If the 6-foot-2, 190pound pass-catcher has another three-touchdown game, such as the one he had against the Huskers in Chilliwack on Aug. 2, Uhl’s first name might start reverberating around Hillside with more regularity. “This kid, we brought him in here and didn’t know what he was going to be like,” Broncos’ head coach Duncan Olthuis said. “In practice, I thought, ‘Oh yeah, he’s pretty good,’ but, in the games, he’s shown a different gear and it’s amazing what he can do.”

yards and one touchdown. There have been no wagers to speak of yet on who will finish the campaign with the most yards or touchdowns, said Uhl, but there is healthy competition for touches. They all want the damn ball, in Keyshawn Johnson terms. Chants of “Rudy! Rudy! Rudy!” are occasionally heard during Broncos’ practices at Hillside, paying homage to Uhl and the 1993 American sports film Rudy, which details the triumphs of main character Daniel Eugene Ruettiger, an underdog who achieves his dream of playing for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. “Every once in a while,

Broncoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s record-tying reception brings back bad memory for former Trojans QB By Marty Hastings STAFF REPORTER

sports@kamloopsthisweek.com

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a pretty neat story behind a 40-yearold B.C. Football Conference record that was tied on July 26 at Hillside Stadium. When Kamloops Broncosâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; receiver Rudy Uhl caught a 106-yard touchdown pass against the Westshore Rebels, he tied the BCFCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s longest-pass-reception record. On Sept. 29, 1974, receiver Frank Sacilotto of the Renfrew Trojans set the mark when he reeled in a pass from Brian Davis and scampered 106 yards against the Vancouver Blue Bombers in the B.C. championship game. Davis was reached at his Coquitlam home on

Wednesday, Aug. 13. He remembers the play like it was yesterday â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and he canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget how the game ended. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We should have won that game,â&#x20AC;? said Davis, a retired firefighter. Vancouver was down two points and well out of field-goal range on the last play of the game, Davis explained, when a member of the Renfrew defence took a roughing-the-passer penalty. The flag set up a 53-yard field goal attempt, a tough kick by

and the Bombers were B.C. champs. Davisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; record-setting pass was similar to the one Kamloops quarterback Stephen Schuweiler and Uhl connected on earlier this month. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I threw the ball to

press deadline on Wednesday. He played in at least one game for the B.C. Lions in 1979, according to lionbackers.com. The Canadian Junior Football League longest-pass-reception record is 108 yards.

FESTIVAL SATURDAY AUGUST 16

The North American, Central American and Caribbean (NACAC) Under-23 Championships certainly left their mark on a Tournament Capital field. On Tuesday, Aug. 12, head coach Tom McManus and the TRU WolfPack womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soccer team were forced to relocate their training camp because of damage done by the athletics championshipsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; throwing events. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We started training camp yesterday and I went down to the field last night [Monday], because we were going to play the games [there],â&#x20AC;? McManus said, referring to the National Throws Centre field across the road from Hillside Stadium. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I walked the field and the amount of huge divots was absolutely ridiculous.â&#x20AC;? NACACâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s javelin, discus and hammer-throw events occupied the grounds on the weekend. McManus went down to the pitch again on Tuesday, before making the decision to move his training camp to Exhibition Park. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The divots are just incredible,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In fact, Kevin Brechin [athletic therapist and head strength and conditioning coach at TRU] was with me and he was stepping into them and his foot was fully covered. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Well, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not going to do this.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? City of Kamloops parks operations supervisor Shawn Cook told KTW repairs had been made to the field by noon on Tuesday. Both Hillside Stadium and the throws centre field were in playable condition. Though some field damage is expected with track and field throws events, Cook said the damage from NACAC was extensive. He attributed it to the calibre of the athletes at the competition and the distances they were throwing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Typically, a smaller event â&#x20AC;&#x201D; we had the B.C. Track Championships about a month ago â&#x20AC;&#x201D; nowhere near the damage,â&#x20AC;? he said. McManus had initially planned to host the entire training camp, which runs until the end of August, on the throws centre field. He will re-evaluate its condition next week.

NHLers taking Ice Bucket Challenge By Stephen Whyno CANADIAN PRESS

The Ice Bucket Challenge is sweeping through the NHL as players, coaches, general managers and even some team presidents and owners have joined the campaign to raise awareness for ALS. Sidney Crosby, Steven Stamkos, Patrick Kane and Tyler Seguin are among the dozens of hockey stars who have posted online videos where they are dousing themselves in ice-cold water to get people talking about the neurodegenerative disorder more commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease. “This has been great to create awareness of something that I’m sure a lot of people, including myself, didn’t really know much about,’’ Boston Bruins forward Gregory Campbell said. “I think it’s been wonderful that the hockey community has really embraced it.’’ In less than two weeks, the Ice Bucket Challenge has transcended sports and spread into politics and pop culture, along the way raising millions of dollars for various organizations. The viral phenomenon traces its origins to University of Arizona women’s basketball coach Niya Butts, who made the Cold Water Challenge popular earlier this summer in hopes of raising awareness and money for breast cancer research. Then

former Boston College baseball player Pete Frates heard about the idea from fellow ALS patient Patrick Quinn and got his friends and family involved. The 29-year-old Frates is suffering from the disease and no longer has use of his arms or legs. “Pete’s story is so compelling: The handsome, strong, big-time college athlete that gets stricken down by a disease that no one knows its cause, there is no effective treatment, and there are so many people like Pete that are going and experiencing this disease privately because as it takes them physically, they no longer put themselves out there,’’ his father John said in a phone interview. “But my son is different. He said, like most jocks do, ‘Let’s strap this thing on and get after it.’’’ The Frates family considered it a bit of fun to have friends pour buckets of ice over their heads in private appreciation of Pete’s battle. But the movement became public when one of Frates’s high-school hockey teammates challenged Campbell. Soon, there were more highlights of Bruins players, coach Claude Julien and president Cam Neely dumping ice on their heads. Part of what has made the Ice Bucket Challenge explode is the daring element of it: Anyone challenged has 24 hours to do the same and pass it on. Campbell

challenged Brad Marchand, who challenged Chris Kelly, who challenged Dallas Stars forward Rich Peverley, who challenged Seguin. Down the line it went, through the Bruins, Stars, Tampa Bay Lightning, Pittsburgh Penguins and other NHL organizations. In the past couple of days, Chicago Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville and CEO John McDonough have joined in, and former Toronto Maple Leafs centre Mikhail Grabovski nominated Leafs coach Randy Carlyle — a Walk for ALS Canada supporter — to go next. “It just shows the camaraderie within the NHL family, kind of like the brotherhood, if it’s ex-players or coaches or management or whoever,’’ said Peverley, who is still progressing after a heart ailment caused him to collapse during a game in March. “It shows that guys are willing to do whatever they can to help out an organization, some people that need help.’’ A spokeswoman for ALS Association in the U.S. said the national office has raised $1.35 million from July 29 to Aug. 11, compared to $22,000 for the same period last year, and that wasn’t including local chapters. A spokeswoman for ALS Canada didn’t have specific figures but said in an email that a lot of the money coming in from the Ice Bucket Challenge is from new donors.

Ryder Cup, playoff spots up for grabs at Wyndham By Joedy McCreary ASSOCIATED PRESS

GREENSBORO, N.C. — There’s always plenty on the line at the seasonending Wyndham Championship — in addition to the tournament itself. For some, it’s the last chance to play their way into golf’s postseason. Others are trying to catch Ryder Cup captain Tom Watson’s eye and earn one of the three remaining spots on the U.S. team.

“Everybody is playing for something this week, and yeah, the field might not be as deep as some other weeks around it,’’ two-time winner Davis Love III said Wednesday. “But the guys that are here are here for a lot of different, very important reasons and playing hard to try to get something out of this week. “It’s a fun week to watch.’’ And a stressful week to play. Even if the players

say it’s not. Webb Simpson — a Raleigh native who played at nearby Wake Forest and lives in Charlotte — insists it “kind of feels like there’s no pressure.’’ He says he’s been texting Watson and “hopefully I’ll play well the next three weeks, or at least solid golf, to make it hard for him not to pick me.’’ Simpson is one of two former Wyndham winners — along with Brandt Snedeker — who came to Sedgefield Country Club in pursuit

of spots on the Ryder Cup team. Simpson, the 2011 winner, is 15th on the Ryder Cup points list while 2007 champion Snedeker is 20th. Watson will make his three captain’s picks next month. Last year’s champion, Patrick Reed, has already secured his Ryder Cup spot, and at No. 9 on the FedEx Cup points list, is in good shape entering the playoffs. All he has to worry about is defending his title.

Roller Girls cruise to victory over Deadlies at TCC In the Tuesday, Aug. 12, edition of KTW, the Tournament City Deadlies were said to have beaten the Avalanche City Roller Girls of Fernie 264-72 in roller-derby action on Saturday, Aug. 9, at the

The 18s on the Blazer bubble By Marty Hastings STAFF REPORTER

sports@kamloopsthisweek.com

Eighteen is a composite number, its proper divisors being one, two, three, six and nine. Only a fraction of the returning 18-yearold Kamloops Blazers’ forwards are likely to be left standing when training camp is over. “What we see here is a really good battle shaping up for training camp within the team to earn positions and to earn playing time,” said Blazers’ head coach Don Hay, who spoke to KTW at the team’s hockey school at McArthur Island Sport and Event Centre on Tuesday, Aug. 12. Carson Bolduc, Matt Revel, Nathan Looysen, Mitch Friesen, Collin Shirley, Jesse Shynkaruk and Eric Krienke are the returning 18s. With Revel and Shirley seeming like safe bets to crack the squad, competition will be cutthroat among the others, with a muchballyhooed group of 16-year-old forwards — including Jake Kryski, Jermaine Loewen and Quinn Benjafield — and 17-year-olds Nick Chyzowski, Deven Sideroff and Spencer Bast pressing for spots on the team. (Pick up a copy of KTW on Aug. 28 for a closer look at the 16-year-old forwards). “An 18-year-old has got to give us some leadership, he’s got to give us some physical play and he’s got to give us some real competitive play, shift to shift,” Hay said.

KTW will look aheadd att ththe 2014 2014-2015 2015 KKamloops Blazers’ campaign by addressing five areas of the team in a series that starts today (Aug. 14) and runs each Thursday until Sept. 11. Next week we examine the blue line.

Nathan Looysen of the Kamloops Blazers scored his first Western Hockey League goal against the Vancouver Giants on Jan. 17 at Interior Savings Centre. He is one of seven returning 18-year-old forwards fighting for a spot on the Blue and Orange’s 2014-2015 roster. Training camp gets underway at Interior Savings Centre on Aug. 22. KTW file photo

“They have to contribute. It’s a really key group within our team.” Hay, who took the reins in May, has done his homework, but his first great in-person look at his new charges will come on Aug. 22 when training camp gets underway at Interior Savings Centre. Looysen is one of several Blazers who feel they’re already under the microscope, conducting hockey camp for players ages five through 12 alongside their new coach at McArthur. “You’ve always got something to prove and with there being so many guys in my age group, obviously, there are spots to fill and I definitely want to have one of those spots,” Looysen said. “Even at things like this [hockey camp], you’ve always got to be working with the kids and be nice to people because you never know who’s watching. It could be one of his [Hay’s] friends that puts in input, someone that you talk to on the street.

“You never know.” Looysen, a Saanichton product signed by the Blazers in August of 2013, finished the 2013-2014 campaign with two goals and nine points in 57 games. Friesen has been unable to catch on fulltime with the Blue and Orange. He registered one assist in 46 games with the Blazers in 2012-2013 and was sent down to the junior B Kamloops Storm last season. The 6-foot-4, 180pound forward from Surrey experienced a resurgence in the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League ranks, racking up 21 points in 27 regularseason games with the Storm and notching 21 points in 20 playoff games. “I know what there is to lose and I know I don’t want that to happen again this year,”

said Friesen, picked by the Blazers in the fourth round of the 2011 WHL Bantam Draft. “I got dropped a little bit through the season last year and I went down and got my confidence up a bit with the Storm. That was huge for me.” Bolduc, a Kamloops Minor Hockey Association product, was acquired in a trade with Prince George in November. In 44 games with the Blazers, he had 11 points, three of them goals. Shynkaruk, picked in the seventh round of the 2011 bantam draft, played 67 games with the Blazers in the 20132014 campaign, finishing with four goals and seven points.

and seven points. Revel and Shirley both came to Kamloops in much-talked-about trades. Montreal Canadiens’ draft pick Tim Bozon was shipped to Kootenay in October in a deal that saw Shirley come the other way and Revel landed in Kamloops in January when Blazers’ general manager Craig Bonner sent defence-

man Jordan Thomson to Saskatoon. Bozon asked for a trade and Thomson, who the Blazers drafted fourth overall at the bantam draft in 2011, left the team in November, citing personal reasons. Revel notched six goals and 20 points in 30 games with Kamloops and Shirley had 24 points, 12 of them goals, in 59 games with the Blazers. Each of the 18-yearolds will be under the watchful eyes of Bonner, Hay, associate coach Mark Ferner, director of player personnel Matt Recchi and the rest of the scouting and coaching staff. Looysen spent the

summer training on Vancouver Island with NHLers Jamie and Jordie Benn, Matt Irwin and Tyson Barrie. The off-season regime is one reason why Looysen is backing himself to make the team, but he knows he’ll have plenty of competition. “I’ve got to go to camp every day and work as hard as I can and show to Don and Mark and Craig that I really want to be there ahead of anybody else,” Looysen said. “He’s [Hay] really going to want us to work hard and prove that we deserve a spot, but also give the 16-year-olds someone to look up to.”

MORTGAGE MATTERS Save your home! Don’t sell your home unless you want to! Bills, household expenses and poorly structured mortgages can wreck havoc on the family finances. If this sounds like you, there are options to explore, and you often don’t have to sell your home unless you want to! Bills and high housing costs can sometimes be addressed by looking at three things: 1. Amortization For years, many lenders have been advising clients to choose 20 or 25 year amortizations so the client doesn’t have to pay as much interest over the life of the mortgage. Good idea right? Well, the problem is that sometimes the payments are so high that the client ends up putting emergency expenditures, vacations and other expenses on high interest credit cards. The result is that people end up paying off 3%, 4% and 5% mortgage debt and building up 9%, 19% and 29% credit card debt. The high credit card interest can become unbearable and force the sale of your home. 35 year amortizations are still available! Conditions apply 2. Refinancing In some cases, we can use the equity from your house to payoff credit card bills, car loans, etc. This means we pay off high interest debt with low interest debt. We can’t always change how much money you owe, but we can change how much interest you get charged on it. 3. Cashback Would a cashback mortgage work for you? In this type of mortgage, you receive a lumpsum of 2% or 5% at closing which you can use to reduce bills etc. The extra money can reduce overall household monthly payments or can be used to payoff closing costs or mortgage penalty. The mortgage payments are higher for this type of mortgage. If you are struggling with month to month bills or know someone who is, call me BEFORE you miss a payment. Once you have missed payments reported on your credit bureau, lenders are less likely to approve your mortgage change.* Whether you are a first-time homebuyer, up for renewal or refinancing, there are many unique and competitive products available on the market today.

‘I didn’t want God taking back my voice’ Staples to perform opening night at Roots and Blues festival, shares 64 years of singing By Dale Bass

STAFF REPORTER dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

AVIS Staples was waking up in a hotel room in Norway last week when her manager called her on the phone. “He tells me I’m all over the Twitterverse or Tweeterverse or whatever it is,” the musical icon said from her home in Chicago. “There it was, a video on Youtube of a song I did with [Public Enemy founder/rapper] Chuck D called Give We the Pride. He showed the video to me and oh, my God, it’s beautiful. “You know, I’m still here. I’m not rapping but I’m singing with a rapper and it was fitting for me. The lyrics are so fitting — give we some pride.” It’s yet another chapter in the musical life of Staples, who started singing with her family — the Staple Singers — when she was 11. That was 64 years ago. Back then, she was still a student in Chicago, eventually graduating and hitting the road in 1957 with her dad Roebuck — musical history knows him simply as Pops — and siblings Cleotha, Yvonne and Purvis. Known largely for their gospel singing, by the mid-1960s the Staples had become one of the most wellknown musical voices of the burgeoning civilrights movement in the U.S. — thanks to Pops’ friendship with Martin Luther King Jr. — singing songs like Long Walk to D.C. and When Will We be Paid. And, as she says, she’s still here, still touring and singing, taking the stage at the Salmon Arm Roots and Blues Festival on Friday, Aug. 15. She’s still recording, as well, releasing One True Vine last year, the second album produced by fellow Chicagoan

Mavis Staples will be on the main stage on Friday, Aug. 15, opening night of the 22nd Annual Salmon Arm Roots and Blues Festival. For more information, go online to rootsandblues.ca.

Jeff Tweedy of Wilco. A few years ago, Staples heard Tweedy wanted to meet her and, after the first meeting didn’t come together, he headed to The Hideout, “a funky little club where I was performing that night, recording a live CD” Staples said. “His entire band

came. There was Wilco out in the audience and we met in my dressing room after and then, two weeks later, my manager told me ‘Tweedy wants to produce your next CD.’ I said, ‘You’ve got to be kidding’.” A lunch meeting was set up, at which the

singer-songwriter-producer and band leader was shy. “He wouldn’t talk so I said something funny to loosen him up. And the more he talked, the more comfortable he felt and when he started to talk about his family, well, I thought, that’s all I need.

“Pops always said family first. Family is the strongest unit in the world.” More than two hours later, the deal was done, the pair headed to the band’s studio — called the Loft — and a list of songs for the CD You Are Not Alone was put together.

“I had my own little corner at the Loft,” Staples said of the facility she called homey, with a kitchen, sitting and eating areas, even some beds for the latenight recording, “and, when I went back to do the new CD, I had the same corner and everything was just like it was.” The pair works well together, she said, having just one argument. Tweedy wanted to record Wonderful Saviour, one of the tracks on You Are Not Alone, in a staircase outside of the studio. “I said ‘Tweedy, it’s 14 below and I’m not doing it. You go out there. I’m staying here. “And he said, ‘Someone get Mavis a coat and a scarf and some gloves’ and he summoned us all out there and we were all around one mike and you could see the vapour from our breath. “I listened to it after and said ‘I know, you want me to go back out there and do it again’ and he said no. Oh man, that song sounded so good.” An expected benefit has come from her work with Tweedy, Staples said, one that goes beyond the reality he not only produced but played virtually every instrument on the

latest release, One True Vine. Drum duties fell to Tweedy’s son Spencer. “His boys Spencer and Sammy, they asked me if I would be their grandma. You know, I’ve been a daughter and an aunt and a mother and I thought it’s time for that now. So I’m their grandma and it feels so good around them.” Staples used to hate to rehearse, she said, and found herself as a child getting into fights at school because of her voice, once she describes as big and deep. And she said she doesn’t know “a stitch of music.” “I don’t even know what key I sing in. I sing from ear; when Pops played his guitar, I knew that was the key I had to sing.” She said it was a warning from her father that made her take rehearsals seriously, when he told a young Mavis her voice is a gift from god. “Pops said ‘If you don’t use it, he’ll take it back.’ “That scared me. I was a little kid and I didn’t want God taking back my voice.” For more information on the festival, go online to rootsandblues. ca.

Artist hopes Grumpy Cat will bring smiles to SPCA By Jessica Wallace STAFF REPORTER

ELENA Paivinen wants to give back to the organization that gave her two fuzzy companions. The Kamloops artist is donating proceeds from three of her original acrylic paintings to the local SPCA branch. “I just wanted to give back,”

Paivinen said. She also wants to to pay tribute to her two deceased animals, Big Puss and Tiger. The paintings share a feline theme in honour of Big Puss and one of the canvases is even named after it. Big Puss portrays a precarious encounter with a bird that flew into Paivinen’s window last year. She said symbolism appears in the painting;

COMMUNITY Kamloops resident and TRU student Roopam Plawn, 22, is competing for Miss India-Canada in Toronto on Aug. 16. OFFICIAL COMMUNITY PLAN AND ZONING BYLAW AMENDMENTS PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE The Council of the City of Kamloops hereby gives notice that it will hold a Public Hearing: TIME: PLACE:

August 19, 2014, at 7:00 pm Coast Kamloops Hotel & Conference Centre, Ballroom A, (1250 Rogers Way)

Plawn only Miss India-Canada finalist from B.C. By Jessica Wallace STAFF REPORTER

jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com

OOPAM Plawn recently changed her university

major. The 22-year-old Thompson Rivers University student is opting for a marketing degree over human resources because of her experience promoting herself for Miss India-Canada. “This experience has made me realize this is the field I want to be in,” Plawn said. “Marketing would better suit me.” However, before she graduates with her marketing credentials next year, the Kamloops native is flying to Toronto to compete as the only provincial representative in the national pageant competition. “I was shocked,” Plawn said. “I didn’t think I would make it this far at all.” “I didn’t see that coming.” She made it past the application and interview process because of

her community involvement, Plawn said. She attended the Sikh Cultural Society temple every Sunday growing up. “That really kept me attached to the heritage,” she said. She also co-founded a Bollywood dance club at TRU that performs traditional Indian dancing and has gained 25 active members. Her family life also played a role, she said, specifically in communicating with her grandmother who doesn’t speak English. “It’s a different world growing up here [Kamloops],” she said. “And having a different world going home.” The 24th annual Miss India-Canada competition takes place on Saturday, Aug. 16. Plawn is looking forward to a new experience during her trip east along with friendships she anticipates making. While she has changed her education and career outlook, Plawn said she has mostly taken away confidence from the experience.

“I’m learning so much about myself,” she said. Winner of Miss India-Canda earns the crown and becomes a

Crazy Creek worth a peek

Waterfall near Revelstoke part of 165-acre year-round resort By Teresa the Traveler SPECIAL TO KTW

teresathetraveler.ca

F YOU HAPPEN TO be driving through the Eagle’s Pass near Revelstoke, you may want to make a pit stop at Crazy Creek. This waterfall is part of 138 hectares of trust land that was once the community of Taft. From the late 1800s up until 1918, this community — which consisted of 20 houses, a church and school house, several large rooming houses, a supply store, CPR train station and hotel

— was established around a large sawmill. During its heyday, this mill and logging camp employed hundreds of men. Logs from the upper reaches of Crazy Creek Valley were hauled down to the mill on a logging railway. This sawmill was powered by water piped down from the above falls through a 14-inch wood stave pipeline. Up to 150 pounds of pressure turned the waterwheel which drove the large bandsaw.

the pipeline are still visible today and are being developed with the help of funds raised from the suspension bridge and falls. For those who want to stay a bit longer, you are in luck. The falls are part of the Crazy Creek Resort, a 165acre year-round resort also featuring three hot pools and a cool plunge pool as two

Dodge Charger Pursuit has more safety, security, technology, hardware The Dodge brand recognizes police must be equipped with the best performing pursuitrated vehicle loaded with tactical equipment and technology. And for 2015, the made-in-Brampton Dodge Charger Pursuit has been significantly redesigned, infused with even more world-class safety and security, technology and hardware. All the while, it offers 370 best-in-class horsepower, factoryinstalled Mopar upfit packages and the segment’s most advanced all-wheel-drive (AWD) system for maximum tactical performance, all-weather traction and fuel-efficiency. Spiritually inspired by the iconic secondgeneration Charger from the late 1960s, Charger Pursuit’s easily-recognizable Coke-bottle design and scalloped body sides, sinister front crosshairs and aggressive stance and signature LED racetrack tail lamps all get a makeover in 2015.

It has cleaner lines to create a sleek, chiseled, nimble and lighterweight appearance. The exterior redesign includes changes to the hood, fenders, front and rear fascias, head lamps, tail lamps and front doors. Delivering best-inclass power, the Dodge Charger Pursuit V-8 with its 5.7-litre Hemi V8 engine unleashes 370 h.p., 390 lb/ft of torque, zero to 60 mph in less than six seconds and up to (US) 26 mpg highway with innovative four-cylinder mode Fuel Saver Technology. The legendary Charger Pursuit powertrain set the fastest-ever lap time at the 2012 Model Year Michigan State Police (MSP) Vehicle Evaluation (1:33.70) at the Grattan Raceway in Belding, MI. In addition, Dodge Charger Pursuit V6 with its aluminum 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 engine delivers 292 h.p. and 260 lb/ft of torque and offers E-85 flex-fuel capability and up to (US) 26 mpg highway.

Dodge ups packages Dodge is rounding out its offering of Blacktop Packages for 2014, adding the three-row Durango to the lineup of vehicles with the sporty, sinister look. With the addition of Durango, Dodge now offers the Blacktop Appearance Package on seven of its 2014 model year vehicles, including Charger, Challenger, Dart, Avenger, Journey and Grand Caravan. Building on the Durango’s distinctive, sporty design, along with class-leading power, driving range and towing, the Blacktop Package features unique Gloss Black 20-inch aluminum wheels, dual rear exhaust with bright tips. It also offers 295 h.p. with the 3.6-litre V6 and 360 h.p. with the Hemi V8, a Gloss Black crosshair grille with matching grille surround, Gloss Black side mirrors and Gloss Black exterior badging. Black headlamp bezels are included along with body color fascia and moldings and five options for exterior paint colors.

More than 25 million litres of gas saved

The next generation Chevrolet Volt will debut at the 2015 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. Volt owners are driving more than 63 per cent of their overall miles in electric vehicle mode, collectively logging more than 500 million gas-free miles since the Volt’s retail debut in 2010. That has saved more than 25 million gallons of gasoline. While the driving range in EV-mode can be affected by temperature, driving technique and terrain, the ease with which Volt drivers are avoiding gasoline use demonstrates the Volt’s suitability for almost any lifestyle. Volt owners who charge regularly typically drive more than 970 miles between fillups and visit the gas station less than once a month. The Volt has received multiple customer satisfaction awards from leading third parties. According to a recent leading independent satisfaction survey, the Volt is the highestrated compact car under $55,000 US. Owners are showing their satisfaction as well. For the past three years, a leading customer publication has reported survey results showing more than 90 per cent of Volt owners said they would definitely buy a Volt again. Among its accolades, the 2014 Volt has been recognized for its safety, most recently receiving the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety 2014 Top Safety Pick designation for vehicles equipped with an available Forward Collision Alert system.
