THE END OF AN

EATERY’S ERA Upscale restaurant Ric’s Grill in downtown Kamloops is no more, following in the footsteps of other Ric’s Grill restaurants in the chain that have closed in B.C. and Alberta. In fact, the Ric’s Grill in the Four Points Sheraton Hotel in Aberdeen may be the last surviving restaurant under that moniker, with locations in Kelowna, Prince George and Alberta having closed or now operating under new ownership and new names. Brothers Steve and Jeff Mitton (left) will re-open the Victoria Street Ric’s Grill location as Mittz Kitchen in mid-September. The siblings worked at both Ric’s Grill locations in Kamloops and have a tale to tell — one of financial woes emanating from the chain’s ownership and impacting them, backed up by a number of lawsuits involving at least one Ric’s Grill owner filed in B.C. courts.

Charge from sex-cell incident under review By Tim Petruk

STAFF REPORTER

tim@kamloopsthisweek.com

A B.C. Supreme Court judge wants to hear arguments from lawyers about the legality of the charge facing the RCMP corporal who was at the helm of the Kamloops detachment the night of the now-infamous 2010 sex-in-cells incident. Rick Brown’s trial on one count of breach of trust by a public officer is slated to get underway on Sept. 9. But, next week, lawyers will meet for a special hearing before B.C. Supreme Court Justice Selwyn Romilly to discuss the legality of the charge. Brown was watch commander on the night of Aug. 18, 2010, when a number of RCMP officers and at least one jail guard allegedly watched

via closed-circuit TV as two female prisoners — one of whom claimed to be HIV-positive — engaged in a sex act in a jail cell. In a pre-trial conference on Tuesday, Aug. 26, Romilly said he wasn’t convinced the matter should go to trial. “I’m not sure this is a criminal matter as opposed to a civil matter,” he said, speaking to Crown prosecutor Winston Sayson. “I want to know if this is a criminal matter. Let’s assume that all the things that you say on your summary [of Crown evidence] are proved — is this a criminal matter?” The issue at Brown’s trial is expected to be legal rather than factual — largely whether his actions represented a “serious and marked

departure from the standards expected of an individual in the accused’s position of public trust,” accord-

ing to a 2006 Supreme Court of Canada acquittal of a police officer who asked a subordinate to lie after his daughter was

involved in a car accident. The Supreme Court of Canada ruled Denis Boulanger was not guilty because his “private purpose” was not in an attempt to “undermine the public good.” Brown’s defence lawyer, Glen Orris, doesn’t believe charges should have been laid in the first place, arguing the allegations against his client wouldn’t stand up to scrutiny in relation to the Boulanger decision. “This may be an internal RCMP matter, but it doesn’t rise to a criminal offence,” he said. “The facts — I don’t see how the facts

can possibly establish what was set out in Boulanger.” The legal-argument hearing will take place on Sept. 4, with Brown’s judge-alone trial slated to begin on Sept. 9. Last year, municipal jail guard David Tompkins was placed on a year of probation after pleading guilty to breach of trust. Tompkins remained employed by the city after his conviction. Two RCMP constables — Evan Elgee and Stephen Zaharia — were charged alongside Brown and Tompkins, but charges against both men were later dropped. Elgee’s charges were stayed following a preliminary inquiry in 2013 and Zaharia’s in June of this year. Elgee and Zaharia are

both still on duty with the RCMP. Elgee has since been transferred to a detachment outside B.C. and Zaharia is working out of the Kamloops Rural RCMP office. Brown was suspended with pay after the incident and later placed on paid administrative leave — where he remains. RCMP officials in Ottawa would not elaborate on how administrative leave is different than a paid suspension, but Brown has not worked since the sex-in-cells incident, more than four years ago, and has been paid the entire time. At the time of the incident, he was a veteran Mountie with more than 20 years of experience. Breach of trust by a public officer is punishable by a maximum of five years behind bars.

Trustee Glover to seek seat on city council By Andrea Klassen STAFF REPORTER

andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com

Mounties converge in Rayleigh for the arrest.

TENSE TIMES IN RAYLEIGH Police were on high alert across Kamloops for about 45 minutes on Wednesday, Aug. 27, after receiving a report of a distraught man with three guns — a shotgun, a handgun and a semi-automatic rifle — potentially headed to a local bank. RCMP Cpl. Cheryl Bush said Mounties received a call just after 12:30 p.m. from a woman who said her husband left their Columbia Street house with a number of weapons. She told investigators her husband was upset because of banking issues earlier in the day. Based on what she relayed to police, Mounties placed all TD Canada Trust branches in Kamloops under lockdown. Just before 1:15 p.m., the suspect was arrested without incident at a relative’s home in Rayleigh. Bush gave no indication as to whether he was in possession of the firearms at the time of his arrest. She said the investigation is ongoing. Dave Eagles photos/KTW

Suspect vehicle in Rayleigh.

Mounties locked down TD Canada Trust branches, including the Aberdeen location.

It worked for Ken Christian. Now another longtime Kamloops-Thompson school district trustee is hoping she can use her record to make the jump to city hall. Annette Glover, an 18-year veteran of the board of education, is the latest to announce she’ll join the race for Kamloops city council in the Nov. 15 election. “There are some issues that are currently with council, specifically Ajax [proposed mine] and the performing-arts centre,” Glover told KTW. Glover also wants to see the amount of manufacturing in Kamloops doubled to provide jobs for university students. As for Ajax, Glover has concerns about the health impacts of the proposed copper and gold mine, as well as what she calls an urban-planning concern. “For example, when I think of the railway going through the downtown core of Kamloops and even the hospital, if we had to do some urban planning again, I really do not believe that those two in particular would be where we are today,” she said. “So, I want to use that history and that current knowledge that we have as far as urban planning and apply that to the decision of Ajax.” While a final decision on the mine rests with higher levels of government, Glover believes a strong stand by city council could change minds in the pro- ANNETTE GLOVER vincial ministries of environment and energy and mines. “If we are really on the con side, I do believe we can effect change regarding whether it goes in or not,” Glover said. “My hesitation is, how far are they along in that process?” Glover also wants to see the city continue its work on a new performing-arts centre, provided it’s a space that can be used around-the-clock, seven days a week. Possible locations for the centre include the former Kamloops Daily News property on Seymour Street, Thompson Rivers University and the current home of Lake City Casino on Victoria Street, an option spearheaded by Hotel 540. Glover said she’s not against the possibility of working with a private company on the centre, but wants to make sure it’s “more of a public space than a corporate space.” Glover is the eleventh candidate to declare so far. Also in the running for a council seat are Kamloops’ seven sitting councillors, as well as Deiter Dudy, Peter Kerek and Bob Dieno. Mayor Peter Milobar has no challengers thus far.

From $80K to $45K, chiefs’ salaries vary By Cam Fortems STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

Release of First Nations financial documents by the federal government shows a wide discrepancy in salaries of regional First Nations leaders, ranging from a high of $80,000 to a low of $45,000 — with little relationship between the size of the community and the chief’s income. Tk’emlups Indian Band released its financial information last month showing Shane Gottfriedson, chief of the prosperous band of 1,050, earning $82,000 a year. The band oversees millions in assets, including an industrial subdivision and the Sun Rivers golf community. Not far behind Gottfriedson is Nelson Leon, chief of Adams

Lake Indian Band, at $80,000 a year. The band has 700 members. The lowest salary collected by a First Nations leader in the region is Ron Ignace, who leads Skeetchestn Indian Band. Ignace, who has held the position on and off for decades, earned $45,000 in the most recent year. Skeetchestn has about 500 members. Councillors, at $43,000, earn only slightly less than the chief. Felix Arnouse, who has led Little Shuswap band for more than 15 years earns $71,000. There are only two councillors and a chief at the band. It has 300 members. The typical band has six members of council. Jordan Bateman, B.C. director of the Canadian Taxpayers’

Federation, said Gottfriedson’s salary would be “on the higher end� for B.C. chiefs, but added it’s difficult to determine what an appropriate salary-topopulation ratio would be because band salaries are so varied. While regional chiefs are making five figures, Bateman said some of the province’s First Nations leaders make as little as $3,000 in salaries, while the chief of the 82-member Kwikwetlem Indian Band in Coquitlam, took home almost $1 million in pay. “It makes it really difficult to figure out what is the average salary and what are the best practices for paying a chief and council,� Bateman said, adding the filings don’t show whether chiefs

are also acting as band managers or economic development officers, or what activities they are spearheading for their members. “You want to reward people who, frankly, are working hard to find non-government money, who are working hard to diversify their economic portfolios and doing a good job for the families on their reserves.� Chief Judy Wilson of the Neskonlith band earned $69,000. It has about 600 members, according to the province. She said band council salaries are well known within the community. The rate for councillors varies by the numbers of meetings they attend. The low within the band is Martin Sauls, who earned $25,000. Two other councillors

“Fresh, Healthy, FREE Local� RANGE FRESHLY PICKED PRODUCE ARRIVES DAILY!

— Joan Manuel-Hooper and Frank Denault — each earned $60,000. Salaries earned by chief and council are not taxable. “Martin [Sauls] is there on and off,� Wilson said. “He had other personal income not reflected there.� Wilson said under new election rules, councillors are considered full-time. It will not be suitable, she said, for a band member who works outside. “Now council can’t hold outside jobs. We had a councillor working three days a week and was only available [for band business] two days and evenings,� Wilson said. “How can you run a government table that way?� Like other First

Nations leaders, Wilson said band councillors cannot be compared to municipal councillors. They have more complex portfolios, including education, heath and social services, that demand fulltime attention. Bateman said the CTF is hoping the salary information will lead to more band members voting and holding their leaders accountable. “I think it’ll have a big effect,� he said. “The Kwikwetlem chief has already changed the way the band will be paying him in the future, so there’s a change for the positive. And we’ve seen across the country on other reserves, elections run on what chiefs are being paid.�

COVER PAGE STORY

Ric’s: From trendy chain to financial woes By Jessica Wallace STAFF REPORTER

jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com

An upscale Western Canadian restaurant chain may be on borrowed time with the recent closure of Ric’s Mediterranean Grill in downtown Kamloops. The restaurant, at 227 Victoria St., closed after 15 years on Aug. 20 — and the former general manager said the decision came in light of the chain’s financial turmoil. “They’re done,� said Steve Mitton, 41, who managed the downtown location for 14 years until its recent demise. Steve’s brother, Jeff Mitton, managed the Aberdeen Ric’s Grill location for 12 years, leaving in June. Steve said that, despite the downtown Ric’s being a profitable restaurant, he had been taking operational costs out of his own pocket to pay staff and suppliers because owners Salil and Sunny Gupta had control of the business account. Steve said the downtown restaurant had $700,000 in sales the last fiscal year, while the Aberdeen location reportedly brought in $2.1-million. “We made good profit every year,� Jeff said. Calls to the owners from KTW were not returned. However, the manager of the remaining Ric’s Grill in the Four Points Sheraton Hotel said the owners notified her the Aberdeen location is now the last remaining Ric’s Grill. She said it’s staying open — at least for now. Ric’s Grill restaurants have been closing in B.C. and Alberta. In Kelowna, a downtown loca-

tion shut down last month, while a former Ric’s Grill in the Four Points Sheraton at the Kelowna Airport is operating under a new name— Gulfstream Restaurant. Last year, a Ric’s Grill closed in Victoria and was replaced by a Burger King. Ric’s Grills have also closed in Alberta. The manager of Ric’s Grill in Aberdeen, who asked that her name be withheld, told KTW she has not been paid since March and is surviving on personal savings. She said the Guptas have been in control of the finances. “I have no control,� she said. “But, I also have no idea what they do.� In the last few months, she said, staff have been paid when there has been money and she has stuck it out in order to ensure matters are resolved. Meanwhile, she said some staff have quit, including the restaurant’s head chef. Jeff Mitton, 45, left the Aberdeen location in mid-June, noting he is out tens of thousands of dollars from the business and is in the process of re-arranging personal finances as a result. “I paid staff payroll with my own personal line of credit,� he said. Jeff filed an employment-standards claim and has filed a notice of claim against Salil in Kamloops provincial court, claiming he is owed $60,000 for debts from January 2013 to May 2014. Jeff said he lost more in an investment into the company, money he said won’t likely be returned. He did recently receive a cheque, but said a stop payment was put on it — what he calls

“just one last kick in the ass.� Court records list numerous other lawsuits against Salil. Steve and Jeff Mitton each managed the only two Kamloops Ric’s Grill locations for more than a decade. The downtown location opened in 1999 and the Aberdeen location followed in 2000. The brothers grew up in Kamloops and have worked in several restaurants — Earls, Milestone’s and The Keg — with a combined 54 years in the industry. Their father also invested in Ric’s Grill. The siblings say the chain was stretched too thin and expanded during the economic crisis of 2008/2009. They noted one restaurant, since closed, that lost $30,000 per month. On Monday, Sept. 1, the Mittons will assume the lease at the former downtown Ric’s and will be opening their own restaurant, Mittz Kitchen, in midSeptember. The Mittons said their former Ric’s Grill staff are coming with them in their new venture, including both of their former head chefs and everyone from the former downtown restaurant. While they are busy getting their new business together, they say they are dealing with a list of other grievances. Jeff said he hasn’t received a record of employment. Steve said he is out $15,000. They both say they never saw money from Ric’s Grill gift cards sold at Costco. “The sad thing is, we had two really good businesses here in town,� Jeff said.

Mittz Kitchen to be ‘upscale, Canadian’ It’s time for Jeff and Steve Mitton to put their own name on the restaurant sign. The Kamloops brothers are opening Mittz Kitchen — a take on their surname — in the wake of the closure of Ric’s Mediterranean Grill in downtown Kamloops. “It’s the only thing I’ve ever done,� Steve said of jumping back into the restaurant biz. Though it will be the first restaurant each of them has owned, they bring 50-plus years of industry experience and each recently managed Ric’s Grill restaurants in Kamloops. The restaurant, located at 227 Victoria St., will have more of an industrial feel, they say. “It’s an upscale casual Canadian restaurant with some global influences,� Jeff said.

Two horses test positive for West Nile virus

Results from Cache Creek animals’ blood have vets urging owners to have horses vaccinated By Andrea Klassen STAFF REPORTER

andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com

A Kamloops veterinarian is urging horse owners to ensure their animals are up-to-date on their West Nile vaccinations after two horses near Cache Creek tested positive for the virus earlier this week. The positive tests were reported on Monday, Aug. 25, by the Society of B.C. Veterinarians, though the results have not yet been confirmed by the province. “I think we need to take the big warning sign and absolutely get

on doing more precautions like mosquito control and fly sheets and vaccinating if we haven’t vaccinated,” said Jennifer Jackson, a veterinarian with the Kamloops Large Animal Veterinary Clinic. Jackson said vaccinations are very effective at preventing the spread of the mosquito-borne disease. However, she added, if an unvaccinated horse contracts West Nile, it can lead to lifelong health complications or, more often, death. “A large portion of my clients absolutely vaccinate anyway, so they’ll be all protected,”

Jackson said. “But, there’s a lot of unvaccinated animals out there.” While West Nile cannot spread from horse-to-horse or horseto-human, deputy provincial health officer Bonnie Henry said the positive tests in Cache Creek should also serve as a reminder that humans can be infected. “This is another indicator that West Nile virus can be out there,” she said. “This would be the highest-risk time of year.” Over the years, three West Nile infections stemming from bites in B.C. have been

recorded. All three were logged in 2009 in the Southern Interior, Henry said, the area where most positive tests of mosquitos and birds also occur. Henry said the Cache Creek test results aren’t surprising, but would be the first indication of West Nile virus activity in the province this year. The Ministry of Agriculture said it is working to verify veterinary reports, but cannot yet confirm either case as West Nile. “In order for the virus to be confirmed under provincial, federal and international definitions, either the virus

itself must be identified (brain tissue sample following the animal’s death) or at least one of a variety of tests must be conducted to assess changes in the level of antibodies,” a ministry spokesman said in a written statement. While most people bitten by a West Nileinfected mosquito will show no symptoms, about 20 per cent will develop a fever, headaches and a rash — and about one person in 150 will experience meningitis or other severe complications. About one of every 1,000 peope bitten will die.

Former NHL enforcer Poeschek charged with assault By Tim Petruk

STAFF REPORTER

tim@kamloopsthisweek.com

A former NHL tough guy is facing assault and driving charges after an alleged incident in Kamloops last month. Rudy “Pot Pie” Poeschek, who played parts of a dozen seasons in the National Hockey League, is facing one count each of assault, driving while prohibited and dangerous operation

of a motor vehicle, All of the charges stem from an alleged incident on July 5, the details of which have not yet been made public. The charges were sworn last week and Poeschek, 47, has yet to appear in court. Splitting time between the New York Rangers, Winnipeg Jets, Tampa Bay Lightning and St. Louis Blues, Poeschek played 364

NHL games over 12 seasons, tallying six goals and 25 assists while racking up 817 penalty minutes. Prior to his professional career, Poeschek, a Terrace native, played for the Kamloops Junior Oilers and Blazers between 1983 and 1987. He was selected 238th overall by the Rangers in the 12th round of the 1985 NHL Entry Draft.

His professional career ended in 2001. In 2005, a Florida judge sentenced Poeschek to 60 days behind bars after he drove across lawns in his Tampa neighbourhood with his five-yearold daughter in the car. Poeschek is not in custody. His first appearance in Kamloops provincial court is slated for Oct. 9.

A B.C. Supreme Court justice also ordered he repay $158,000 to victims, am order by which he was able to abide. Last year, the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs warned members to stay away from a talent contest promoted by Pearson, according to a CBC report. In the latest legal manoeuvre, the IHA is asking the B.C. Supreme Court to find Gloria Pearson in contempt of a court order. If a judge makes that finding, she could be sent to jail or be subject to daily fines. “There won’t even be a court date,” countered Paul Pearson. “We have an email from their lawyer saying they’ve seen the pictures and go ahead and comply with Claire Audet.” The IHA maintains the legal action remains outstanding. In May of this year, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Dev Dley ordered sewer discharge to immediately cease and construction on a new system begin within 90 days. He also required a letter from a contractor that work was underway. Pearson appeared in court with his wife. In July, Gloria Pearson successfully applied for a extension. But, the court required she pay a $25,000 deposit toward the work. In the most recent documents filed in B.C. Supreme Court, the Interior Health Authority claimed she did not follow the order. Soon after, the IHA asked the court to find Gloria Pearson in contempt. The contempt-of-court application is now scheduled to be heard on Oct. 14 in B.C. Supreme Court in Kamloops.

The Anonymous People is a powerful film we should see

T

HERE’S A UNIQUE FILM screening at the Rotary Bandshell next week, one that brings an interesting perspective to the reality of addiction. The Anonymous People simply suggest society stop focusing on the shame of addiction and focus on the pride of recovery. Director Greg Williams spent two years travelling more than 10,000 miles talking to people just like him — addicts in long-term recovery — that led to 110 hours of video. Once all the editing was done, he ended up with a powerful 88 minutes of voices questioning why they need to remain anonymous. Williams has been careful to not knock organizations like Alcoholics Anonymous or Narcotics Anonymous, 12-step programs built around the idea of anonymity. But, through his interviews, he poses some interesting questions. One that might hit people hard is the belief people in recovery must identify themselves by their diseases. We’ve all seen or read about it, people sitting in a church hall somewhere, chairs in a circle, each of them introducing themselves: “Hello, my name is John and I’m an alcoholic.” Williams believes the better introduction, the one that celebrates success over the illness, would be: “Hello, my name is John and I’m in long-term recovery.” As Williams explains, it’s not a film with fried eggs in a pan or needles hanging out of arms. There isn’t a stereotype to be seen in the film, but people who eventually

DALE BASS Street LEVEL realized they had an illness and did what was necessary to treat it — to recover from it. One woman interviewed questions why society wants to keep recovery secret. If communities don’t get a chance to see it, “all they see is the horrible side of addiction,” Roxanne Kibben said. Another, Johnny Allem, points out perpetuating that horrible side fuels the stereotype and leads to discrimination, which feeds the shame people with addictions can face. Addiction-treatment psychologist Bill White, himself a person in longterm recovery, simply says: “By our silence we let others define us.” Too often, health issues take on faces because of those stereotypes. Drug addiction? You did it to yourself. Alcoholism? Well, aren’t you the weak one? There’s a moment in the documentary when one of the men in recovery says he looks to the gay community for confirmation that giving his illness a face is important. He’s right.

Think about it. If no one in that community spoke out about HIV/ AIDS, would we still be viewing it as a sin brought on because of their evil lifestyle? Would we consider it a health issue and, more importantly, would any of the medical advances that have been made every have happened? It’s unfortunate our city councillors rejected a request to for the city to waive the $50 fee being charged for this documentary to be shown. (Granted, councillors did chip in to cover the fee without setting what they saw as a precedent they didn’t want to have, a decision that might lead other groups to ask for the same park waiver from the city). If we view addiction as a health issue and stop demonizing it, we’d be taking one more step in reducing the cost it has on each one of us. The Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse estimates that cost to be $1,287 for each one of you, a figure drawn from a study done more than a decade ago that estimated then the costs of substance abuse in the country to be almost $40 billion. Surely the amount it costs each of us has increased since then. Fifty dollars spent by the city in an effort to promote health, to highlight the value of recovery, to celebrate those who have sought out help for their illness, really doesn’t seem to be unreasonable. The Anonymous People will be shown on Sept. 6 at 7 p.m. at the bandshell. dale@kamloopsthisweek.com Twitter: @mdalebass

Time to flip the switch on cellphones Before jumping all over ICBC for requesting an increase of 5.2 per cent for basic insurance, let’s look at their reasons for the request. Claims are up — way up — from five years ago. Bodily injury claims hit $1.9 billion in 2013, up $73 million from 2012 and an increase of $500 million from five years earlier. That’s 33 per cent higher than five years ago. Legal and medical costs are also up. And what has happened in the past five years? Technology. The evergrowing use of cellphones and other personal electronic devices by drivers is a major factor cited for the rise in injury claims. But, why should those of us without cellphones pay more because of the irresponsibility of some of those with them? Perhaps it’s time for ICBC to start awarding further reductions to those who do not have cellphones or to those who do not use them in their cars. Of course, something like that would be near impossible to monitor. The real solution is for the automotive industry to jump in and rectify the situation. Here’s how: Install a mechanism in the motor of the car that renders smartphones, laptops and other such instrumentation useless while the engine is engaged. Impossible? Hardly. After all, you can turn on the lights of your house from your hotel in another city. A disengage switch for smartphones et al should be a breeze. Too Big Brother for you? Don’t consider it Big Brother; consider it improvement to vehicle safety for the good of all. Remember, seatbelts used to be optional, as did motorcycle helmets. Plenty of people protested those laws as well. But, we eventually got over it. Heaven forbid we should be forced to drive without the use of a phone or a laptop or a DVD player. That’s so 1990. And what did car insurance cost in 1990? — Comox Valley Record

Re: Story: Picketing resumes — but not at Kamloops elementary schools:

“When I was a teacher, I was astounded when the postings came around for BCTF staff positions. “They were $20,000 to 30,000 more per year than the highest teacher salary, some over $90,000. “That was 10 years ago, so it’s likely into six figures now. “I wonder if BCTF staffers are embarrassed to be collecting their fat-cat dues-funded salaries while their brothers and sisters are starving on the picket lines?” — posted by Chris Kempling

There are 600,000 reasons a settlement is needed Editor: After months of supposed negotiating on the part of the provincial government and the B.C. Teachers’ Federation, there is yet to be a resolution to the job action. When the rotating strikes began in June, many parents believed two months would be long enough to settle the strike, but here we are. With the original opening day for schools being Tuesday, Sept. 2, Kamloops parents are finding it frustrating that the labour dispute shows no signs of being resolved in time for the start date. In fact, it appears as though our children may have to wait until well into the fall to return to school. While we understand teachers and the Ministry of Education care deeply about this province’s children and their education, this prolonged dispute is certainly not in the best interest of students’ immediate educational needs and continues to place them in the middle of what should be a professional,

Lyons time made a dream come true

Editor: In this day and age, one thing that has really resonated with me is the fact that time is so extremely precious and it seems like we are all in a race against it. This has become the ultimate reality, especially for my mom, who was diagnosed last October with cancer and has been fighting this horrible disease ever since. My mom has worked very hard her entire life and has spent many years as a florist in Kamloops. She owned her own flower store and has worked for others, including her most recent employer before she was diagnosed — Lyons Landscaping. I mention how precious time is because many staff members at Lyons Landscaping took an entire day out of their own busy lives to landscape my mom’s yard for her, which was something she has been talking about and wanting to do for a couple of years.

dignified discussion. The start of a new school year has traditionally been exciting, joyful and full of promise. With the threat of ongoing picketing and continued sniping by both sides, parents and students are feeling the weight of uncertainty with regards to the upcoming school year and how delays may affect their educational future. Education Minister Peter Fassbender’s suggestion that the offer of $40 per day per child under 13 will aid parents in exploring “other educational opportunities” is ridiculous for two reasons: • This money will not be distributed until after a settlement has been reached and will not aid any families with current child-care needs. • The educational opportunity that everyone should remain focused on has a name — school. The government savings that would be used to fund this proposal should be fun-

neled back into schools to improve resource and support levels and enhance the learning of all students. Public education is a basic and essential public service and all students have the right to expect their education and individual potential are not compromised by the longstanding rift between these two factions. The B.C. School Act requires the province to educate our children, so we respectfully request all parties get back to fulfilling this solemn mandate. In the midst of all the press conferences, news releases and negotiations, let us remember who is most vulnerable in this dispute — 600,000 B.C. students. These are students who want to learn, grow, play, socialize and continue on their paths to becoming productive, healthy members of our society. We cannot afford to let them down.

We need to make the bullies change schools This was a real act of kindness, one that is never, ever forgotten and something that shouldn’t go unrecognized. So, on behalf of my mother, Linda Marte, my stepfather, Kelvin Marte, my brother, Troy Bilodeau, my husband, Brook Webster, and myself, I would like to thank everyone at Lyons Landscaping for volunteering their time, for their hard work and dedication and for making my mom so happy. They fulfilled her hope of one day completing her yard just the way she wanted it. We cannot thank all of you enough: Tory and Terry, Darren, Ross, Tim, Howard, Colin, Jeff, Nicole, Joel, Kim, Matt N., Matt H., Giovanni, Brad, Cole, Jesse, Telliah, Gary and Liz, Sharon and stoneslinger operators Marcel and Chris of Noremac.

Editor: Re: The bullying situation that is still prevalent in our schooling facilities. I entered and was rejected from 13 different schools and made it only to Grade 10. What I found going through the school system was that I had to beat the bullies down. And, as being the new kid in the school, the bully got to stay and I was moved to a new school. I suggest we move the bully and, if he gets in a fight in any school, he gets moved again — and again and again — until he gets the message that the bully is the bad one. Don’t remove guys like me who would not be bullied. Regardless of their housing location or transportation issue, they should have to pay to get to school. As far as those of you who are being bullied, stand up to them and punch them. A little pain changes the school dynamic. The superintendent of the KamloopsThompson school district should get on board with this program because, as it is, the bullies are being protected.

Sturgis goes out of Merritt with a whimper By Dale Bass

Burton Cummings was among those who performed at Sturgis, which ended early due to financial and other problems, according to a Toronto-based talent manager and booking agent. Emily Wessel/ Merritt Herald

STAFF REPORTER

dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

In the opinion of the man charged with booking the bands, many problems led to an abrupt early end to the Sturgis Music Festival in Merritt last weekend. Keith Sharp, a Toronto-based talent manager and booking agent, said issues included a disagreement with the sound and lighting provider, RCMP roadblocks and motorcycle seizures, two days of rain and “just bad planning.” However, Merritt RCMP are calling into question some of the claims. Sharp said starting the festival on Thursday, Aug. 21, was a mistake that was compounded by a storm that hit the area. Another storm on Friday, Aug. 22, affected the number of walk-up festival-goers, even though the showers stopped by early evening. The third day of the festival — Saturday, Aug. 23 — was good, Sharp said, with a crowd he estimated at about 5,000 in the field outside Merritt for the evening’s headliner, Burton Cummings. Sunday’s lineup, however, did not take the stage, Sharp said. “In a nutshell, he ran out of money,” Sharp said of organizer Ray

Sasseville. Each band scheduled for Sunday, Aug. 24, kept its deposit, an amount Sharp described as about half what they had agreed to be paid. He said he can confirm other bands were paid “because I was walking around with envelopes of cash to give to them before they went on stage.” Sharp criticized the City of Merritt, saying it had worked with the RCMP to set up roadblocks and seize bikes that violated the city’s noise bylaw. “Fifty bikes were impounded, so that was 50 bikers who were unhappy and telling others about it, so that was a problem,” Sharp said. The many roadblocks were also a deterrent, he said, claiming Cummings was stopped three times as he tried to get to the venue.

on Saturday night during Cummings’ concert. City of Merritt chief administrative officer Allan Chabot said he hasn’t received word from Sturgis Canada as to whether the event will return to Merritt. He said the city is supportive of festivals and events, realizing they can bring cultural and economic benefits to Merritt. Chabot pointed out, however, the venue is not in the city, but part of the Thompson-Nicola Regional District and all Merritt can do is support any event that might use the site. Chabot said he has heard through other media sources it has been suggested the Merritt RCMP had too many roadblocks at the festival, which caused too many problems, something with which Chabot disagrees. “I think some accusations have been made and, certainly that’s of a concern to us, particularly if they’re not accurate,” Chabot said. On the Sturgis Canada Rally Facebook

Merritt RCMP Sgt. Sheila White, however, said no motorcycles were seized during the festival. She took issue with Sharp’s contention Cummings was stopped three times, explaining he was stopped once on his way to the festival. White said there were only a few violations over the course of the weekend. Tickets were issued for having an improper helmet and for having an improper driver’s licence. During the festival, White said, police responded to four calls at the site of the music festival and two arrests were made for being drunk in public. White said police responded to “a consensual fight” between a member of the Hell’s Angels and a member of another motorcycle club

page, Sturgis Canada Rally stated the police “were a huge issue.” This is not the first time Sasseville has had difficulty with the festival. Sturgis festivals in Salmon Arm in 2011 and Vernon in 2012 also had financial issues. A 2013 event planned for Chase and, later, Merritt, was cancelled. Lawsuits resulted from the earlier events, with Sasseville launching

action earlier this year against the District of Sicamous, the Sicamous Chamber of Commerce, musician and promoter Bernie Aubin and several other people. Earlier this year, Sasseville and business partner Joan Hansen started a process to drop the suit against six of the seven defendants, but their lawyer was suspended by the Law Society of British Columbia, throwing the

situation into what one Salmon Arm lawyer called “crazily complicated.” In 2012, the Spallumcheen Motoplex Speedway and Event Park near Vernon, where that year’s event has been planned, sued Sturgis North Encore Productions for $400,000. A year later, the speedway management said it was dealing with the matter out of court.

ICBC seeks 5.2 per cent hike By Jeff Nagel BLACK PRESS jnagel@blackpress.ca

tinue to raise rates. It’s a form of taxation.� Drivers’ rapidly growing use of cellphones and other personal electronic devices behind the wheel is one of the factors ICBC cited for the rise in injury claims. Distracted driving is the second leading cause of fatal car crashes in B.C. — killing 88 people a year — and is the leading cause of rear-end crashes that often cause injuries, ICBC spokesman Adam Grossman said. A new campaign against distracted driving is to roll out in September. Grossman was unable to provide details justifying why basic rates should be 10.4 per cent higher than 2012 when the injury claim cost increase from 2012 to 2013 was only four per cent. Consumers

Association of Canada president Bruce Cran said it continues a pattern of steeper increases in basic rates on which ICBC has a monopoly, but more restraint on optional coverage rates, where it must compete. He also took aim at the provincial government’s continued raiding of ICBC coffers for general revenue. The province has budgeted to pull $200 million from ICBC this year, $155 million next year and $125 million in 2016, down from $237 million in 2013 and $576 million in 2010.

ICBC is asking regulators to approve a 5.2 per cent increase in basic auto-insurance rates. The public auto insurer said the rate hike would cost the average customer an extra $40 per year if approved by the B.C. Utilities Commission. The rate hike is to take effect Nov. 1 on an interim basis while the BCUC reviews the application. A previously approved 5.2 per cent rate hike that took effect last year means drivers will soon be paying 10.4 per cent more for basic coverage than they did in 2012. ICBC blamed the latest increase on a continued rise in injury claims costs paid to crash victims for pain and suffering, future care and lost wages.

Bodily injury claims hit $1.9 billion in 2013, up $73 million from 2012 and more than $500 million from five years earlier. Legal and medical costs have also risen. NDP critic Mable Elmore said ICBC rates have gone up 23 per cent since Christy Clark became premier. She warned that under the B.C. Liberal government’s ratesmoothing policy— which requires rates to come within 1.5 per cent of the previous year — next year’s hike could come close to seven per cent. Kamloops-based B.C. Conservative Leader Dan Brooks accused the province of robbing from Crown corporations like ICBC and BC Hydro. “They can move money out of Crown corporations and use that to balance the books . . .

Breach did include health-card numbers By Dale Bass

STAFF REPROTER

dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

Royal Inland Hospital is addressing misinformation associated with its revelation of a privacy breach involving 1,628 patients. Health Minister Terry Lake told KTW the documents that were in the filing cabinet — which was donated last year to an unknown location — did not contain names, addresses or phone numbers. However, the hospital has confirmed the files did have names and birthdates, along with personal healthcard numbers and the relevant medical-testing information. They did not contain addresses. The hospital has told KTW anyone concerned can get a copy of the records involved in the breach by contacting Interior Health Authority’s patient-care quality office at 1-877442-2001 or by email at patient.concerns@ interiorhealth.ca. Letters sent to the patients about a month after the hospital learned files had left the hospital in a donated filing cabinet recommended people advised credit-rating companies to flag their accounts. The letters said the service is free, but there is a cost and the hospital will reimburse anyone who chooses to have the alert for one year of the service. Lake also said health-care numbers had been flagged. However, Maki — a patient affected who wished to have his surname withheld — discovered when he called that the medicalservices department is not flagging the 1,628 files, but waiting for the patients to call. Maki received an email with a form for reimbursement of credit-rating flagging charges, but said he’s not inclined to take advantage of the offer until he knows it has been made to the other 1,627 patients.

He has also been told by Equifax that it does not offer a oneyear term-alert payment option, but requires people to provide their credit card, which will be charged for an alert every year unless the person calls back and

asks to cancel it. Michaela Swan, a communications officer with the Interior Health Authority, said it was unaware when it contacted the patients that the credit-flagging service comes with a cost and other terms.

She said the IHA is reviewing the information and hopes to have a protocol and method of advising the 1,628 people. Maki had also received a letter from the hospital in 2011 when RIH dealt with a

sterile-equipment issue that involved patients having day surgery. “RIH isn’t taking any responsibility,” he said. “This is the second time it’s happened to me. It’s serious. There’s no accountability and

Terry [Lake] has just downplayed it.” Maki is taking his concerns to the province’s privacy commissioner, filing a complaint that the IHA “did not perform a duty as required by the [Health] Act” and “inappro-

priately disclosed my information.” Maki is asking the privacy commissioner for several orders, including one requiring the IHA to provide six years of credit-monitoring services to all patients involved. APPENDIX B to Letter L-43-14

. . . by coincidence, or so the story goes . . . outside of the centre. Wendy works for a private company and was hired by the centre. She spends four days a week there visiting three clients. Will came to Kamloops when Coquitlam’s Riverview Hospital shut down in 2012. Wendy says a lot of people came to Kamloops from the Lower Mainland when it closed. “I was institutionalized,� Will says.

When asked why, he shares some details about his family, but the reason is unclear. “Will’s got lots of stories,� Wendy says. During visits, the two go for coffee or play cards. Will is great at crib, Wendy says.

“He skunked me once,� she notes. “Once and only once.� With their hour winding down, Wendy stands up and pushes Will away in his wheelchair, to his home on Apple Lane. Wendy will be back next week.

YOUR HEALTH

President’s own story: 15 years ago I started to have arthritis, prostate, kidney, snoring and sleep apnea problems, which were all helped quickly with natural health products. I made it my life’s purpose to help others. Nick A. Jerch

ARTHRITIS

Helps to relieve joint pain associated with osteoarthritis. Guaranteed also for rheumatoid and sciatica, (My own affliction). Truthful actual experiences from real people: � For 40 years I had injections and drugs and finally Bell Shark Cartilage spared me the endless torture I suffered day and night. Pat Laughlin, Coldwater, ON �My hip is 95% pain free. Pain killing drugs mask and Bell Shark Cartilage heals. Rebecca Hite, Oroville, CA�I tried another brand and pain came back. 2 weeks on Bell and pain is gone again. Gert Dupuis, Hanmer, ON�I suffered for years. I tried everything and finally after taking a specially processed shark cartilage I was pain free in 2 weeks. After this experience I realized I could help many of those 5 million Canadian that suffer every day and night and I started to sell this same type of shark cartilage and helped hundreds of thousands of men and women to #1 NPN 80042283 have less pain or no pain at all. Nick A. Jerch, President of Bell Lifestyle Products. �Many people on our website write: “Can walk again for hours”;”Can climb stairs without hanging on to railing”;”First time in 15 years can sleep at night” Rheumatoid arthritis in joints down 90%, same for my sister…hundreds of testimonials all with full names and towns. Shark bones/cartilage was a previously thrown away by-product of the food industry. No sharks are caught for their cartilage. Don’t let any activist confuse you.

Bladder & Yeast Infection

A diuretic to help relieve mild urinary tract infections. True success stories by women: �Bladder & Yeast Infection #31 works within a day or two! My experience in the last 4 years is that whenever I feel symptoms of an infections I take two capsules for a day or two and the infection is gone. I love this product. Pat Pearce, 53, Brantford, ON � 30 years of bladder infections gone! For 30 years my doctor prescribed antibiotics. As soon as the medication finished the next bladder infection came back. After 2 days taking Bell # 31 I noticed a complete relief of my infection I had all these 30 years. God bless you all for helping all of us women. Emell Whitaker, 69, Bronx, NY� Bladder infections kept on coming back. Since starting Bell Bladder & Yeast Infection #31 my infection was gone and I now take it from time to time for prevention and I have no more bladder or yeast infections. I told family and friends how good Bell products are. Thank you! Maria Racz, 60, Vancouver, BC �Went to the bathroom 10 times in an hour and more frequently at night!. In the last 2 years I went a number of times to the doctor and got different antibiotics and none of them worked. My urination would burn enormously. I bought #31 NPN 80038535 your Bell Bladder & Yeast infection #31. I can now work all day or sleep all night without getting up to go to the bathroom. I am not afraid anymore to drink water when I am thirsty. Praise the Lord! Thank you! Harriett Priester, 60, North Charleston, SC

ACNE

Works by cleaning blood from the inside, instead of attacking skin with creams or washes from the outside and leaving actual cause untreated. Actual Results. �After 1 week my severe acne became quite mild and after 2 weeks it had completely vanished. I suffered for 5 stressful years of having acne and extremely dry, irritated skin. Bell Help for Skin Disorders“saved my life”. My skin is now beautiful and you would never know I suffered from acne and other skin problems for years. Zach Lustgarten, 18, Oshawa, ON RED NOSE/CHEEKS ROSACEA gone in less than a week. Was fighting it for 30 years with topical creams and prescriptions without getting satisfaction. I live a healthy life, don’t smoke and don’t drink. People thought a reddish face comes from drinking. This is a myth. Will take it for the rest of my life when needed. Donald E. Gillespie, 56, Innisfil, ON PSORIASIS�I had severe psoriasis over 95% of my body. Last 5 years I have stunned every doctor and dermatologist. I spent tons of money on remedies. After I got Bell Help for Skin Disorders, I’ve never seen anything work as fast in my life. Within 2 days I saw my skin clearing up. I’m speechless. #60 NPN 80044199 It was inexpensive compared with what I spent before. Jessica Shantz, 25, Dawson Creek, BC ECZEMA For 6 years my family doctor and dermatologist tried many medications and creams. After taking Bell Help for Skin Disorders for just a few days my eczema itching stopped and my face started to clear up. After suffering so long I am amazed with the results.

Driving , putting for food bank Plenty of food and cash for the Kamloops Food Bank was raised during the Aug. 20 Sun Rivers Resort Community Golf-aThon & Food Drive. Knowing the Kamloops Food Bank provides food for more than 6,000 people each year, Sun Rivers Resort Community stepped up their annual challenge by collaborating with the Sun Rivers Golf Course pros, who initiated the golf-athon to increase the amount of money raised. The pros golfed from dawn to dusk, collecting pledges, doing special draws and offering a play with participant’s option. In the end, they collected 2,550 pounds of food and $1,500 in cash donations. The golf-a-thon team of Michael Chmilar, Shannon McGeady, Cody Jackson and Kirk Laukkanen teed up their first round at 5:45 a.m. and holed out their last putt at 8:35 p.m, playing 144 holes of golf and combining for 89 birdies, three eagles and 336 pars. “The day’s events also included 26 community volunteers collecting food doorto-door and sorting and packing it into the food-bank van. The Sun Rivers Resort Community and golf-a-thon team received sponsorship from Rivershore Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, Rampion, Aberdeen Mall, Projekt, Nike, Puma, Pepsi, Sundog Eyewear, Booster Juice, Okanagan Spring, Greg Norman, Lopez, Srixon, Antigua, Travis Mathew and Sun Rivers residents.

EYE ON COMMUNITY

Welcome to KTW’s Eye On Community page, where we showcase, through the camera lens, positive events in Kamloops. If you have a photo of a charity donation, a grand-opening picture or other uplifting images, email them to editor@kamloopsthisweek.com, with “eye on community” in the subject line.

PROVIDING A FOUNDATION: The B.C. Interior Community Foundation presented the Kamloops Food Policy Council with a grant in the amount of $2,500, which will be used for the Social Enterprise in Urban Agriculture project. It will create sustainable employment in urban agriculture food production and processing for underemployed populations in the greater Kamloops area and market all nutritional products of this enterprise to lower-income households at affordable prices. Left to right: Mike Simpson (Fraser Basin Council), Dave Whiting (Kamloops Food Policy Council), Spence Bryson and Janet Bryson (Stollery Foundation – Small Grants Program) and Ross Parkin (B.C. Interior Community Foundation director).

BACKING BACKPACKS: Valleyview Overlanders Lion Sue Lacourciere presents a cheque for $2002.49 to Paddlewheeler Lions Angela and Gerry Hamilton, who will make the donation of these funds, and others, to the Kamloops-Thompson school district to purchase backpacks for the elementary schoolchildren who in need. The money is raised via the Overlanders annual boat and motor raffles.

KIWANIS CAN DO: Kiwanis Club of Downtown Kamloops president Ivan Hiscock (left) presents a cheque for $2,600 to Capt. Paul Trickett of the Salvation Army for use with its School Backpack program. The funds were part of the proceeds from Kiwanis’ raffle, which culminated with the Canada Day draw. The balance of the proceeds ($1,585.40) were sent to the Kiwanis Child Cancer Project at B.C. Children’s Hospital.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY: The NorKam Health Care Centre celebrated its first year of operation on Tranquille Rd. this month with a community barbecue outside the building it shares with Manshadi Pharmacy. Left to right: head nurse Cheryl Snyder, building and pharmacy owner Missagh Manshadi, Dr. Susan Vlahos and clinic manager Patti Aldrich. “We’re covering the whole community,” Vlahos said. Manshadi, who constructed the building to provide affordable rentals for seniors and to offer medical services to an under-served North Shore population, agrees. “We’ve had great support from the community,” he said.

Alleged serial killer says he had help By Mark Nielsen

PRINCE GEORGE CITIZEN

PRINCE GEORGE — A young British Columbia man accused of killing three women and a 15-year-old girl says he was present when each of the victims died, but he told his trial that other people murdered the women and the girl killed herself. Cody Legebokoff, 24, refused to name his alleged accomplices during his testimony this week, despite a warning that he could he held in contempt. Legebokoff is charged with four counts of firstdegree murder in the deaths of Jill Stuchenko, 35; Cynthia Maas, 35; Natasha Montgomery, 23; and Loren Leslie, 15. WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT FOLLOWS THAT MAY DISTURB SOME READERS He told the jury that a

drug dealer and two other people murdered Stuchenko, Maas and Montgomery, while he said Leslie killed herself while the pair were alone together on a remote logging road. Legebokoff referred to the alleged accomplices as X, Y and Z. When B.C. Supreme Court Judge Glen Parrett warned Legebokoff that he could he held in contempt of court if he did not provide the names, Legebokoff said he didn’t want to go to prison as a “rat.’’ Legebokoff told the jury he knew his role in the killings was wrong and he knew he was destined for prison. “But for what I’ve done, not for what the Crown thinks I’ve done,’’ he said. Legebokoff grew up in Fort St. James, B.C., and spent a year working in Alberta after high school. He told the court he moved into a house in Prince

George in 2009 with some friends from his hometown. He said he met Stuchenko in the fall of that year at a drug-fuelled party he hosted, where he and Stuchenko had sex. Legebokoff said X, who he frequently bought drugs from, announced that Stuchenko would be killed because she owed money. Legebokoff said X beat Stuchenko with a pipe, and then X and Y disposed of the body. Stuchenko’s body was found on Oct. 20, 2009, partially buried in a gravel pit in Prince George. By early summer 2010, Legebokoff had moved to another apartment in Prince George, where he said X visited him “quite a few times.’’ He said X showed up one night with Y and a woman named Cindy, later identified as Maas, and the group smoked crack cocaine.

He said at one point Maas was in the dining when he heard a “loud cracking noise followed by a thud.’’ When he looked to see what had happened, he said he saw a tool or thin bar and Maas lying on her stomach. Legebokoff said X left, and then Y put Maas into the cab of Legebokoff’s pickup truck and drove to a forested park. By that point, Legebokoff said Maas was still alive. He said he pulled a pickaroon from his truck and handed it to Y, who he said used it to strike Maas several times. Police found Maas’ body on Oct. 9, 2010. “I didn’t feel very good about what was going on or how I got myself into this mess,’’ Legebokoff said. A few days later, Legebokoff said X, Z, and Montgomery, who he had never met before, dropped by to smoke crack.

Fire crews begin work Western U. paper to douse ‘Dumpcano’ pulls frosh issue

IQALUIT — Fire crews are getting ready to start pumping water on a fire in the Iqaluit city dump that has been smouldering since May. “We’re trying to set up and trying to put water onto this thing,’’ fire chief Luc Grandmaison said Wednesday, Aug. 27. “We’re putting all the equipment together and (hope to) be able to pump from the sea.’’ The fire, known locally as “Dumpcano,’’ has been burning deep within a massive pile of garbage. The combustion is centred somewhere within untold numbers of household garbage bags in a section of the dump about the size of a football field and up to four storeys deep. There are no flames. But, Grandmaison has said the subsurface heat reaches up to 2,000 C. The heart of the blaze is too deep for firehoses to reach. The pile of garbage is too unstable to attack with backhoes or other equipment. Because extinguishing the fire is so difficult and dangerous, the city had initially planned to let itself burn out. But after fumes from the fire closed schools for several days and prompted recurring health warnings, the city brought in a fire-suppression consultant to advise them on how to snuff it out. British Columbia-based Anthony Sperling proposed building a large pond walled by dirt and garbage and filled with seawater. High-extension excavators would take load after load of burning waste and dunk it in the pool to extinguish it. The waste would then be drained, flattened and stored in a new area. Water from the quenching pond would be pumped onto the burning section of the dump to quell the flames expected to leap up as shovels bit in. Specialized industrial firefighting crews would have to wear respirators and splash suits to protect themselves from contaminated water. — Canadian Press

Editorial board criticized for articles promoting drinking, drugs, sex CANADIAN PRESS

LONDON, Ont. — Western University’s student paper is pulling its frosh issue from campus following complaints over articles it admits “appeared to promote excessive drinking, drug use and sexual advances on teaching assistants.’’ In a statement issued Wednesday, The Gazette’s editorial board apologizes for what it called its “lack of judgment’’ in publishing the Aug. 19 issue. The board says its goal was “to put out an entertaining issue for first-year students and Western as a whole,’’ but that it clearly missed the mark. It pledges not to distribute the issue during the university’s orientation week and remove the offending articles from its website, though at least one could still be viewed Wednesday afternoon. The paper also says it will review its editorial practices in light of the incident. One of the articles at the heart of the controversy, titled “So you want to date a teaching assistant?,’’ encourages students to “get sexual’’ with TAs by leaving the top buttons of their shirt undone, among other things. Critics — including the student

council president and the London, Ont., university’s provost — said the frosh issue seemed to incite inappropriate and potentially dangerous behaviours. In a letter to the editor posted on the paper’s website, Janice Deakin, Western’s provost and vice president academic, said the paper crossed a line with the TA article. “Not only does the spirit of the article run contrary to Western’s efforts to have a workplace and learning environment that is free from sexual harassment, it is disrespectful of the essential contribution graduate teaching assistants make to Western’s academic mission,’’ she wrote. Student council president Matt Helfand, meanwhile, called for an investigation through The Gazette’s advisory board, which he hoped would “ensure that, in the future, these topics are dealt with sensitively and with the utmost seriousness.’’ Frosh activities at other universities have also come under the microscope in recent years. Outrage over a frosh chant at Saint Mary’s University in Halifax last year that glorified non-consensual sex with underage girls has led the school to provide training to student leaders involved in orientation week activities.

GERALDINE (GAY) DESIREAU (nee Jardine) October 24, 1932 - August 23, 2014

After a hard fought battle with Alzheimer’s disease, it is with feelings of both sadness and relief that we say good-bye to our beloved mother Geraldine Desireau. Her unconditional love and support was our greatest joy and strength. Her physical presence is gone, but the past and the future remain with us in traditions and lessons. Left to mourn her passing is her husband of 60 years Deane and her four children Deanna (Garth) Jackson, Janis (Bob) Semenoff, Sandra (Larry) Peatt and Ted (Anna) Desireau. In addition, her five cherished grandchildren: Natasha (Christopher) Haubrich, Carly (Nathaniel) Sharpe, Nadeane Jackson, Casey Semenoff and Taylor Jackson, and two great-grandchildren, Beatrice Winter Sharpe and Eloise Haubrich. She was particularly fond of her three sons-in-law and told them numerous times to “go to your room” when they teased her. We will all remember her favourite saying, “give me strength”. She was born in Coronation, Alberta and moved to Kamloops in her teen years with her parents Ted and Helen (pre-deceased) and brothers Glen (Ruth), Ross (Arlene), Mac (Louise) Jardine. During her schooling at St. Ann’s Academy, she was proud of the typing trophy she won. Mom then went on to graduate from Kamloops Senior Secondary. From 1960 until 1970, along with our dad, they built and ran Balmoral Store just outside Salmon Arm where she excelled in pumping gas and cleaning windshields. She was extremely fond of the many summers she spent at their cabin on Blind Bay with her family and friends. She was one of the founding members of the Valleyview Figure Skating Club and volunteered on their executive for many years. Her other volunteer work included her yearly canvassing for the Heart and Stroke Foundation and organizing numerous “Don Busch” hockey schools. She enjoyed radish sandwiches shared with neighbours, gardening, and numerous cups of black coffee. Mom loved riding her bike on Valleyview Drive and always found the time to stop and chat with someone along the way. She was one of those rare people who loved her jobs and her favourite, by far, was her years working in the Drug & Stationary department of Woodward’s. She enjoyed staying in touch with several of her Woodward’s buddies especially Joan Epp, Winnie Holomay and Margo Woloski. One of her greatest heroes was Terry Fox, she was also a passionate Vancouver Canucks fan who felt that every year would be “the year”. She spent the final two years residing at the Kamloops Seniors Village. Special thanks to Dr. Schumacher, her long time doctor whom she adored!! Many thanks also to Don and Sheila Boogie and Jack and Heather Aucoin for being very special neighbours. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Terry Fox Foundation. At her request there will be no service.

PAUL JOSEPH AUGUSTE BALCAEN Paul Joseph Auguste Balcaen of Kamloops passed away on August 14, 2014 at 91 years of age. He will be lovingly remembered by his children Wayne Balcaen of Whitehorse, Don (Joyce) Bergen of Port Alberni, grandchildren Deb Butler of Kamloops, Kathy Bergen of Vancouver Island, Don Bergen of Victoria, Rod (Deb) Bergen of Revelstoke, Lee (Kevin) Holden of Salmon Arm, Carol Bergen of Kamloops, great-grandchildren Brandi Shewchuk, Chris Nixon, Ashley Nixon, Nicki Berg, Heath Berg, Kristen Holden, Kaiden Holden, great-great-grandchildren Avery Shewchuk, Laken and Taven Shewchuk, Adalyn and Liam Lee, Kason and Taylor Berg. He was predeceased by his wife, Alice Amy Balcaen, and sons Dennis and Peter Bergen. Paul was born in Vegreville, AB on August 14, 1923. He was one of ten children. He grew up on the farm and joined the air force at the age of 18 and became an armament instructor. Once leaving the force, he met Alice and they became the band LuLu Islanders and travelled all over, enjoying life and each other. Once in their 70’s they settled in Revelstoke with lots of family around. Alice passed away in 1999 and Paul then resided with his granddaughter Deb for 10 years before moving to Kamloops. Paul was a kind soul. He will be missed greatly by his family and by the people whose lives he touched. Anyone who met or knew Paul would always remember him for his funny jokes and sayings, his sense of humour and easy going and loving personality which made him a joy to be around. Rest in peace Gramps, you are forever in our hearts. The family would like to give a special thank you to the staff at the Overlander Residential Care.

Vesta was born in Swift Current, Saskatchewan on May 28, 1936. She grew up in Salmo, BC in the time of the mining boom. She married Bruno on August 13, 1960 and they enjoyed many years together. They first lived in Prince George (where Trent was born) and later moved to Coquitlam (where Sue was born) and moved to Kamloops in 1971. Vesta started work with the City of Kamloops in 1973 and worked in various departments (The building department, the cemetery, and finally Riverside Coliseum). She retired in 1996 and she and Bruno started travelling. They travelled extensively in their RV (most of the US and Mexico) and did a couple of trips to Europe. They enjoyed many years of being snowbirds and spending time at the Sands RV in Desert Hotsprings. Mom was her happiest when she was helping others. She always had a heart of gold. We would like to thank the Kamloops Renaissance retirement residence where mom spent her last year and made many friends. The team there was an extension of our family. To the Nurses and Doctors at ICU (in particular Shelly and Dr. Paul Campsall) and the Nurses at Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Hospice - you are an amazing group.

One night a man had a dream, He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene, he noticed two set of footprints in the sand: one belonging to him, and the other to the Lord. When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life. This really bothered him and he questioned the Lord about it. “Lord, you said that once I decided to followed you, you’d walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times of life, there is only one set of footprints. I don’t understand why, when I needed you most, you would leave me.” The Lord replied, “My precious, precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you saw only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you.” Margaret Fishback Powers

NHL remains status quo on expansion despite reports CANADIAN PRESS

TORONTO — NHL expansion is likely coming in the near future, though the league hasn’t committed to any official plan just yet. For more than a year, commissioner Gary Bettman has said the NHL is listening when approached by cities interested in acquiring a team even though there’s no formal expansion process underway. Amid reports this week indicating solid plans are in place, deputy commissioner Bill Daly said there’s “nothing new to report on this subject.’’ “Nothing new has happened,’’ Daly said Wednesday, Aug. 27, in an email. Status quo doesn’t mean the NHL won’t eventually expand to Las Vegas, as the Province reported Tuesday was a “done deal.’’ And, it doesn’t necessarily discount the possibility of adding four teams by 2017, one each in Las Vegas, Seattle and Quebec City and a second in Toronto, as SportsBusinessNews. com reported. Getting to 32 teams sooner rather than later would make sense for a league that moved to unbalanced conferences with 16 teams in the East and 14 in the West beginning last season. Las Vegas and Seattle fit geographically. But the NHL has several hurdles to overcome before awarding franchises, including answering arena and ownership questions. MGM and AEG are in the process of building a 20,000-seat facility in Las Vegas that could be ready by the spring of 2017, and either UNLV’s Thomas & Mack Center or Orleans Arena could be short-term options. But, it’s still unclear who would own a team in Las Vegas, let alone what could happen to sportsbooks if the NHL is the first major North American professional league to move in there.

Seattle, with its vocal and passionate fanbase, has a less-than-

ideal arrangement in the short-term with Key Arena.

Getting a new building would be crucial to Seattle landing a team.

Has the future arrived? The much-ballyhooed Blazer 16s up front have the gloves off in pursuit of roster spots By Marty Hastings

STAFF REPORTER

sports@kamloopsthisweek.com

ust you wait for this crop of 1998-born forwards, the future of the Kamloops Blazers. The brass on Mark Recchi Way has been spreading that message and those 16-year-old prospects are fighting tooth and nail to crack the roster this season. Jake Kryski, Quinn Benjafield and Jermaine Loewen are names likely

familiar to the hardcore Blazer fan and there’s a fourth, Phillip Knies, who put

his name on the map before being sent home. “The decision is going to be very tough,” said Matt Recchi, the Blazers’ director of player personnel. “All of them have developed and we expect them to push to make the team.” Kryski, picked 13th overall by the Prince Albert Raiders in the 2013 WHL bantam draft, was traded to Kamloops in July of 2013 in a deal that saw overage netminder Cole Cheveldave go the other way. Already a blue-chip pros-

KTW is looking ahead at the 2014-2015 Kamloops Blazers’ campaign by addressing five areas of the team in a series that started on Aug. 14 and runs each Thursday until Sept. 11. Today, in part three, the team’s promising crop of 16-year-old forwards is featured. Next week, we hop in the crease and examine the goaltending situation. Parts one and two, which focus on the group of 18-year-old forwards on the bubble and the blue line, respectively, are online at kamloopsthisweek.com. pect when the transaction was made, the five-foot-11, 170pound centre from Vancouver improved his standing last season playing as a 15-yearold for the Okanagan Rockets in the B.C.

Thoughts from Blue vs.White game

C

ole Ully’s overtime marker was the only goal of the Kamloops Blazers’ intrasquad game at Interior Savings Centre on Tuesday, Aug. 26 — and it might have been kicked in. Scoring was at a premium, but there was no shortage of fine goaltending. The play of each of the four netminders — Bolton Pouliot, Connor Ingram, Dylan Ferguson and Cole Kehler — was the story of the game. There were 82 shots in regulation. None of them found twine. General manager Craig Bonner has some tough decisions to make between the pipes. Read more about that in part four of KTW’s five-part season preview on Thursday, Sept. 4. There were a few other things that stood out to me. Both European import defencemen,

MARTY HASTINGS The Tattle of Hastings Patrik Maier of the Czech Republic and Michael Fora of Switzerland, were impressive paired together on Team White. The word seemed to be Fora was the more physical of the two D-men, and he is bigger, but Maier was just as willing to use his frame and both rearguards looked comfortable with the puck. Nolan Kneen, the Blazers’ third overall pick in this year’s WHL bantam draft, showed the sparse crowd at ISC what he is capable of doing. He almost scored on an end-to-end rush in the third period and that was not his only

positive offensive play of the game. Kneen did have one shaky moment inside his own blue line, but we’ll give him a break. He’s only 15. Staying with the defencemen, it will be hard to cut 16-year-old Dawson Davidson. The Moosomin, Sask., product did nothing on Tuesday to hinder his chances of making the team. It will be interesting to see how he accounts for himself when the pre-season gets underway on Friday, Aug. 29, when Vancouver is in town. Only three 16-yearold forwards remain in the race for a roster spot — Jake Kryski, Quinn Benjafield and Jermaine Loewen. Loewen did not get great reviews from one scout with whom I spoke. He said the Jamiacan-born forward might need another year in the midget ranks before he’s ready to make the jump. He was, however, close to scoring on two occasions, both chances coming when he parked his big frame in front of the net. There wasn’t too much spark from any of the 18-year-old forTeam White celebrates after winning the Kamloops Blazers’ intrasquad game. Allen Douglas/KTW

wards on the bubble. The same scout who gave me insight on Loewen said he liked the game of 17-year-old Nick Chyzowski, who filled out a bit over the summer and looked strong on the puck. Kamloops trimmed the roster to 32 after the game and will carry 17 forwards, 11 defencemen and four goaltenders into the pre-season.

Head coach Hay not scared to roll with 16s X From A23

KTW caught up with Kryski this week at Blazers’ training camp, which wrapped up on Tuesday, Aug. 26, with the Blue versus White intrasquad game at Interior Savings Centre (ISC). “Right now, this is everything I’ve been looking forward to so far,” said Kryski, who had 16 goals and 48 points in 37 regularseason games last season with the Rockets. “Making the team is all I’ve got my hopes up for and, hopefully, I can make that happen.” Kryski’s name is likely to be on the opening-day roster sheet and he might not be the only 16-year-old forward pencilled in. “It’s definitely a little hard, being buds with them off the ice and then having to fight for a spot on the ice,” Kryski said. “You just do your best and see what happens.” Head coach Don Hay has never been afraid to roll with the youngsters — see Shane Doan in 1992-1993 and Jarome Iginla in 1993-1994, among many others. “I’ve had up to five 16-yearolds on a team,” Hay told KTW. “You want them to play and to contribute. The role they play kind of depends on them, how much they can handle and how much they can produce. “You don’t want to put too much pressure on a young guy too early.” Benjafield, a 6-foot-1, 181pound right-winger from North Vancouver, racked up 19 goals and 47 points last season with the Vancouver NW Giants, losing to Kryski and the Rockets in the league final. “He’s got a great all-around game and super-soft hands,” Recchi said of Benjafield. “He’s a very committed player. He’s added weight, which he

Jermaine Loewen was big when he showed up to Kamloops Blazers’ training camp last year as a 15-year-old. Fast forward to 2014, he’s even bigger. The Jamaican-born prospect is six-foot-three and weighs 201 pounds. Allen Douglas/KTW

needed to do this summer, which shows us he was willing to put in the work.” There is no doubt where Benjafield wants to be on Sept. 19, when the Blazers open the 2014-2015 campaign against Victoria at ISC. “I want to make the team more than ever,” said Benjafield, picked by the Blue and Orange 19th overall in the 2013 bantam draft. “It’s been my dream to play here. I don’t really want to go back to Vancouver.” Loewen, who’s aiming to become the second Jamaicanborn player to suit up in the NHL, spent the summer working out in Kelowna, endeavouring to improve his skating and strength. “I really want to make it,” said Loewen, a six-foot three leftwinger who tips the scales at 201 pounds. “I would be really disappointed in myself if I didn’t make the team. “I’m just thinking about how I can play the best I can play and

be a team player and see what happens.” Loewen, who lives in Arborg, Man., played last season with the Interlake Lightning of the Manitoba Midget AAA Hockey League, compiling 16 goals and 30 points in 41 games. The power forward’s skating came into question at camp last year. “His skating is a non-issue. He’s got a big strong stride and he knows how to use it,” Recchi said of Loewen, selected by Kamloops in Round 3 at the 2013 bantam draft.

son of former NHLer Rich Pilon had a strong camp. The duelling 16s will jostle for position throughout the WHL exhibition schedule, with their first opportunity to make a stamp coming on Friday, Aug. 29, when the Vancouver Giants are in town. Game time is 7 p.m. “We have some very talented 16-year-old players coming up that have a great deal of skill,” Hay said. “They have to show to the coaches and their teammates that they are responsible enough to play in critical situations. “How many of them will make the team or how many are going to stick will depend on them.”

“He gets better every day he’s been here.” Knies, a Scottsdale, Ariz., product who the Blazers picked in the fourth round in 2013, missed camp last August due to injury, but he made up for lost time this year. “He’s really opened our eyes,” Recchi said. “He’s been very good. He wants the puck. He wants to make a difference in the hockey game.” Knies was sent home on Tuesday and will play this season with the midget AAA Colorado Thunderbirds.

Brown claims curling scholarship Corryn Brown of Kamloops won one of 10 Love of Curling scholarships, handed out by the Canadian Curling Association. The $1,000 scholarships will help university students cover a portion of their education and curling costs in 2014-2015. Academic and curling achievements were judged by a panel. Applicants had to show a commitment to building the sport of curling through coaching and/or volunteer activities. “It was an incredibly hard decision to narrow it to 10 winners because the applicants were so talented, both on the ice and in the classroom,”

said Emma Miskew, a member of the selection panel and the vice-skip for two-time defending Scotties Tournament of Hearts champion Team Rachel Homan. “But, it was so encouraging to get to know these young athletes and their commitment to improving as curlers and as people. “I’m truly excited to see what’s ahead for our 10 winners.”

Gilbert’s Games

Colin Gilbert didn’t

advance to a final in his Youth Olympic Games debut, but he might have done enough to advance his reputation. The Kamloops Classic Swimming club member raced in the 400- and 800metre freestyle events at the Games last week in Nanjing, China. Gilbert, 15, was one of the younger swimmers at the Games, with most athletes hitting the water as 17- and 18-yearolds. In the 400-m race on Aug. 17, Gilbert finished second in his heat. He touched the wall

in 4:02.51 and was 0.82 seconds behind the leader, Grega Popovic of Slovakia. In the 800-m on Aug. 21, Gilbert was fifth in his heat, finishing in 8:20.43. He was 13.89 seconds behind leader Alexei Sancov of the Republic of Moldova. Though still at the Youth Olympic Games, Gilbert’s swimming season is now complete. Classic coach Brad Dalke told KTW that Gilbert will take two weeks off upon his return, before beginning dry-land training for the winter swim season.

10 year mortgages – Looking for payment security over the long term? The 10 year mortgage is for people who find comfort in stable financial payments and want to limit their risk to potential high interest rates over the next decade. Flex down payment mortgages – Having trouble raising enough money for a down payment? The flex down mortgage offers buyers the chance to use borrowed money to buy a home. The bank expects the borrower to have good credit and good employment to qualify. This type of product may allow you to buy now and stop paying high rents. 5% cash back mortgages – Can’t afford that truck payment plus a mortgage? If you have a down payment, but can’t afford to use it for both bill reduction and buying a home, then the cash back mortgage is an option. You can use the 5% for anything you want – home renovations, pay off bills, add to savings. Purchase plus improvements – Can’t find anything in your price range you like? The purchase plus improvements mortgage allows you to increase your mortgage by up to 20% of your purchase price to renovate your home. This way, you can buy a less expensive home and renovate it the way you want – all included in your mortgage. This program does not cover pools and hot tubs, but roofs, walls, kitchens, bathrooms are fine. Purchase plus improvement mortgages are available at very competitive rates. Equity Mortgages – Has the bank said “no” because of your income, but you have strong equity in your home? There are lenders who will take into account the equity you have built up in your home and lend on that instead of income. 50% (50% ownership) and 65% (35% ownership) loan to value percentages are often acceptable to lenders. The lender will always ask for an appraisal and will expect the borrower to have excellent credit. Whether you are a first-time homebuyer, up for renewal or refinancing, there are many unique and competitive products available on the market today. For more information about qualifying for a mortgage or if you have questions about your specific situation, please call 250 682 6077 or e-mail steve.bucher@migroup.ca or check out my website at www.mortgagebuilder.ca

shows are best experienced with the lights on — but, that’s not necessarily the case for the Kamloops Arts Council’s upcoming Ken Farrar exhibition. For his exhibition, Phosphorescent Landscapes: Painting With Light, Farrar turned to special minerals that glow in the dark to capture the lights of the nighttime sky. Farrar’s paintings can glow for up to 12 hours, using light energy stored during the day. Visitors to the Old Courthouse, 7 West Seymour St., can turn the lights in the main gallery on and off to experience the paintings both in regular and nighttime views. Phosphorescent Landscapes runs from Sept. 4 to Sept. 27, with an opening reception on Saturday, Sept. 6 from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m.

SING UNTIL YOU HAVE NO CHOICE By Jessica Wallace STAFF REPORTER

EY OCEAN! will spend more time playing together on the pitch than on stage once the summer winds down. When the Vancouver indie-pop trio comes to Sun Peaks this weekend to perform a free outdoor show with the likes of the Arkells and Elliott Brood, it will be one of the band’s last before taking time apart for individual work. David Beckingham, Ashleigh Ball and David Vertesi will still see each other plenty, though, and will even play together. It will just be during soccer practice rather than band rehearsal. “We play on the same soccer team,” Beckingham told KTW over the phone from his Vancouver home. He said the band’s decision is more of a break than a break-up. “You need some life of which to draw some inspiration,” he said. “We’re just going to go kind of live for a little bit.” A new Hey Ocean! album is not off the table, he noted, but the 31-year-old musician has booked his own studio time for the fall and plans to release a full-length solo album with a “melancholy-folk

pop” sound. He also wants to expand his after-school children’s rock program and is heading back to school to complete an outdoor recreation management program at Capilano University, an endeavour that had been put on hold for the band. “I’m going to be pretty busy in the fall,” Beckingham said. Meanwhile, bandmates Ball and Vertesi have their own plans. Vertesi has taken to developing and managing young artists, while Ball is a “walking, talking cartoon,” Beckingham said, noting her voice work for My Little Pony and having recently signing onto a series with DreamWorks. “She’s loving that and she’s really busy,” Beckingham said. The band’s break will alleviate pressure. It was nominated for breakthrough group of the year at the 2013 Juno Awards, and Beckingham said success can sometimes interfere with the music. “There’s pressure to progress and get to this idea that’s ever-elusive, of making it. “That can really get in the way of your art.” It’s the right time to slow things down, Beckingham said, being at the end of an album cycle.

Hey Ocean! will perform a free concert at Sun Peaks on Sunday, Aug. 31.

Their most recent album, IS, was released in 2012 and touring died down this summer, with a few odd performances including one at the PNE earlier this week and others in Ontario and Nova Scotia. Beckingham is looking forward to heading to Sun Peaks to perform on Sunday, Aug. 31. They’ve played in Kamloops at the Blue Grotto, but never on the mountain. Fans can expect “Quintessential Hey Ocean!” he said, noting the performance will feature songs from all three of their albums. “We love performing. That’s where our band kind of shines,” he said. Hey Ocean! will perform on the main stage at 3 p.m. on a bill that includes Beaches, Matt Henry Trained Human, Sister Speak and Elliott Brood. The music starts at 10:30 a.m. and is part of a Summer Send-Off free concert weekend beginning on Saturday, Aug. 30, featuring the Arkells and others. General access is free. Front-stage access must be purchased. For more information, go online to sunpeaksresort.com.

More to winning than a crown and a car for Plawn By Jessica Wallace

Roopam Plawn was the only B.C. woman to compete in this year’s Miss India-Canada.

STAFF REPORTER jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com

Roopam Plawn expected to be sad or discouraged if she didn’t take home this year’s Miss IndiaCanada title. But, the 22 year-old TRU student said her first experience at the national pageant was the opposite. Because, though she lost, she made friends, became a role model, was able to travel and met people who can help her work toward a career in marketing. “The winner was also a second-time runner [contestant],” Plawn said in an email to KTW. “She was deserving of the crown and had earned it more than any other delegate.” Plawn travelled to Toronto in August for the 24th annual event as the lone B.C. participant. The Kamloops woman is of Indian descent and co-founded a Bollywood dance club a TRU. She was one of 16 young women to showcase evening gowns and talent and answer questions from a panel of judges. Plawn said the judges asked her what makes her unique, to

which she said her reply was: “I do not take opportunities, I make them.” Plawn told KTW before she left for the competition that promoting herself in the program prompted her to switch out of the human-resources program at TRU, opting to major in marketing. Now, she hopes to take advantage of the networking

opportunities she had through the program to eventually work in an area that empowers women. Mississauga’s Annu Gaidhu, who is studying child and youth care at Ryerson University, won the title of Miss India Canada 2014. Gaidhu won the title, a crown and a new car and becomes a national ambassador of the IndoCanadian community.

FAITH

Are your emotions holy or hollow?

T

HE DEATH of actor Robin Williams is an emotional shocker not only to the Hollywood fraternity, but to many in our region. It wasn’t too long ago Williams and the troupe did some filming around Kamloops for the movie A Night at the Museum, not yet released. A succession of tinsel town celebrities have taken matters in their own hands and ended their lives. The three D’s that are mostly attributed to such emotional super stakes are depression, discouragement and defeat. Emotions are part of being human. They are neither good nor bad in and of themselves. Just because we are emotional creatures is no excuse for uncontrolled responses.

NARAYAN MITRA You Gotta Have FAITH The truth is, we do not have to be controlled by our emotions. We can choose to fix our mind on the Truth (obedience), take every thought captive to the Truth and allow God to sanctify and control our emotions. In reality, it goes back to surrender — giving God my emotions for worship, not worry; comforting others, not controlling others; feeling the pain of another and responding with care and compassion. Two types of emo-

tions are generally stirred within us by events around us — holy and hollow. Holy emotions are engendered from a broken heart, crying out in desperation to a holy and faithful God. This type has little regard for self. When these have reached their ultimate goal, they have become God’s way of complete surrender evidenced through brokenness — an emptying of our selves, our wants, our needs and our sufferings. Hollow emotions are a desperate attempt to be seen and heard, and to manipulate others. They cry out for attention from others and, perhaps from God, but, because these are self-focused, are not usually responded to by a “higher power.” It might sound like a cry to God, but He is

not the focus. The situation, the person or whatever has caused the grief has become the controlling force. People with hollow emotions are still looking for “it” (the circumstance, person, etc.) to bring relief. They are wanting God to change “it” so they won’t have to suffer any longer. This cry out is for self, not for surrender. “Touch me,” “comfort me,” “love me,” and so go it. God does want to answer our pleas and He is close to those of a broken heart. But, He is not interested in simply giving us relief, but in changing our focus, in turning these hollow emotions into holy ones — controlled, sanctified and surrendered to Him for His purpose. Author and

speaker Larry Crabb said: “Recovery from pain is absorbing an increasing share of the church’s energy . . . we have become committed to relieving the pain behind our problems rather than using our pain to wrestle more passionately with the character and purpose of God.” God desires every thing about our life to be under His control, including emotions. They are to be no longer controlled by people or circumstances but must be surrendered to His control. Growing in Christian life entails that we are to be conformed to the image of Christ. Therefore, my reactions, my emotional responses are to be in line with His character. God, through the guidance and teaching of the Holy Spirit, wants to sanctify and

set apart my emotions for His good purposes. Here’s a sampler of general differences between holy and hollow emotions. Holy emotions: • Surrender and submit through pain to God; • Cry out for healing; • Produce faith; • Speak sincerely, even through tears; • Confess, adore; • Declare God’s righteousness; • Seek comfort; • Soar through prayer and worship. Hollow emotions: • Scream and spit venom of blame, fear, and doubt; • Cry out to be heard; • Produce fear; • Speak suspiciously and cynically through tears; • Confess adamant demands; • Declare the person’s rights;

• Seek control; • Sink through worries. In his book, The Purpose Driven Life, author Rick Warren writes: “Whenever you are hurt by someone, you have a choice to make; will I use my energy and emotions for retaliation or for resolution? You can’t do both!” We all need help in the area of expressing our emotions. We need the right response when we are faced with traumatic circumstances, daily living and situations that arise from relational conflicts. The solution is to keep our minds renewed through the word of God, especially by such passages as Isaiah 26:34; 50:10, Philippians 4:4-8 and Colossians 3:1-4. mitraryan225@ yahoo.ca

All-electric performance Saleen From the same automotive performance brand that brought the true North American supercar, the S7, Saleen has once again set precedence for a vehicle of electric proportions. The Tesla Model S-based Saleen FourSixteen performance electric car was shown for the first time at the 2014 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. From the outside, the

FourSixteen is a harmonious blend of aerodynamic aggressiveness and subtle classiness. Applying the same championship Saleen DNA used over the last three decades, Saleen has created a car that can drive the streets of Monaco and set records at Laguna Seca. From the Saleen crafted front fascia to the carbon fiber rear diffuser, the FourSixteen aerodynamic

design is as inspired as it is functional. Just like the rest of the Saleen lineup, this car is more than just an eye catching aerodynamic package. Propelling the new FourSixteen is the threephase, four-pole AC induction motor and copper rotor with the upgraded Saleen drivetrain including an allnew 11.39:1 final gear ratio for quicker acceleration.

Legendary car builder, Saleen, has enhanced the performance, technology, and design of the Tesla Model S for the FourSixteen performance electric car.

If a comfortable ride is your thing, U.S-based KBB.com says the 2014 Impala is its top choice under US$30,000. Though the madein-Oshawa Impala has adapted to evolving technologies and consumer trends through the years, the 10th generation Impala has remained true to its roots in offering generous cabin spaciousness and a comfortable ride.

The 2014 Impala’s comfort and refinement are rooted in a stronger body structure, enabling a quieter passenger environment and a greater overall feeling of quality. Making the Impala’s cabin quiet was a top priority for engineers, who implemented technologies like triplesealed doors, available active-noise cancelling technology and acoustic foam baffles.

The 2015 Honda Fit has received a 2014 Top Safety Pick rating from the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). A voluntary product update will enable early-production vehicles to match the 2014 Top Safety Pick rating. No other manufacturer has more top-safety rated vehicles built in North America than Honda. This includes a top rating of “good” in four IIHS crash test modes and an “acceptable” score in the U.S. Insurance Institute’s stringent small overlap frontal crash test.

Honda Fit earns IIHS honours ride and handling more precisely, for a greater feeling of control and comfort.

Hungry? It’s off to the market we go By Cindy Bossio SPECIAL TO KTW

editor@kamloopsthisweek.com

There is nothing like fresh picked corn with kernels so crisp, or the smell of vine-ripened tomatoes, harvested at their peak and purchased from a local farmers’ market With more than 125 farmers’ markets spread across British Columbia, there is one near you — and Kamloops’ twiceweekly markets are among the province’s most vibrant. Items available at the market change with the growing season. Buy your favourite foods each week, but try something new, too. If your local market is like my favourite one, there are often free samples, so you can try before you buy Try preparing your veggies in different

Fresh • Local • Sustainable •

ways — such as on the grill, pureed in a soup or blended in a smoothie. The options are endless. Fresh herbs are also a great find to add to your favourite recipe. Markets are as different as the communities they serve. Some are festive events with artists, musicians and a huge variety of fresh produce and locally made products. Others might feature a few stalls with one farmer supplying most of the produce. Besides providing an abundance of locally grown vegetables and fruit to help keep you healthy, markets also contribute to the health of the community. They are a great place to socialize, enjoy the fresh air, listen to some music and meet those who grow your food. Local farms employ local people so, when you buy from a producer in your

Remarkable

area, you support the local economy. This summer and fall, check out the markets in your area Visiting a market makes a great outing for kids, seniors or out-of-town guests. Some communities even offer free public transportation to the market. Don’t forget to bring bags and a cooler for the trip home. Are you wondering where to find markets outside of Kamloops, what is in season or if your market offers the Nutrition Coupon Program? Perhaps you need a recipe? Check out the B.C. Association of Farmers’ Markets’ website at bcfarmersmarket.org for all the above information and more. Cindy Bossio is a community nutritionist with the Interior Health Authority.
