Guard testifies in cell-sex trial CAM FORTEMS
STAFF REPORTER cam@kamloopsthisweek.com
A veteran guard on duty the night two female prisoners engaged in sex in Kamloops RCMP cells has testified it’s common procedure to separate amorous cellmates and report the incident to a supervisor. David Clark testified yesterday (Sept. 18) in the trial of Cpl. Rick Brown, who is charged with breach of trust by a public officer. Brown was watch commander in the earlymorning hours of Aug. 18, 2010, when two intoxicated women engaged in explicit sex acts in a detachment jail cell. Court heard earlier that Brown and other
Mounties, as well as jail guards, watched the sex acts via closed-circuit video. At no point did anyone intervene. Clark was called as a witness for the prosecution. He served seven years as a guard at the RCMP detachment in Kamloops and 16 years at Kamloops Regional Correctional Centre. He left his shift shortly before the full sexual contact between the two women. Clark said he reported to the next guard coming on shift at about 4 a.m. the two women in the drunk tank sitting “unusually close. “They were friendly — probably might get too friendly,” Clark reported
RICK BROWN: RCMP corporal charged with breach of trust.
to the guard who came on shift next. Crown prosecutor Jas Gahunia asked Clark if he had witnessed sexual activity by prisoners in past. Calling it “not that common,” Clark said he has seen a handful of incidents, typically between women. “We had one incident
of one male pursuing another in the drunk tank at the RCMP cells and several in the correctional centre.” Clark said standard policy was to separate the prisoners and report it to the watch commander. Guards at the RCMP lockup cannot enter a cell without a Mountie present. “The police operations manual states something to the effect of report unusual behaviour,” he said. Earlier witnesses have testified there was no written procedure. Another Mountie testified earlier yesterday he was concerned about the behaviour of the guards and Mounties when the incident occurred, but he took no action. Cpl. Brian O’Callaghan
was on duty that evening, reporting to watch commander Brown. When the guards and RCMP members went toward the cells on the first report of the incident, O’Callaghan said he believed he didn’t need to be involved. When members returned to the general duty pit area, he heard laughing and chatter about the women engaging in sex in the cells. “I expressed the concerns I had,” O’Callaghan said of his interaction with one of the guards who watched the women on closed-circuit television. But, O’Callaghan said, he took no action and otherwise ignored the banter. The trial is scheduled to continue today and next week.

UNITED WAY’S 2014 GOAL: $2.5 MILLION
AGENCY’S SOLDOUT KICKOFF CAMPAIGN BREAKFAST DETAILS FUNDRAISING EFFORTS The United Way of the Thompson-NicolaCariboo wants to raise $2.5 million in the 2014 fundraising campaign. The organization held its annual kickoff breakfast on Thursday, Sept. 18, at the Kamloops Coast Hotel and Conference Centre, where a sold-out audience heard details of this year’s fundraising campaign. United Way executive director Brenda Aynsley noted early pledges from 14 organizations have resulted in $115,325 already raised, with the remainder set to be collected between now and the Dec. 11 Touchdown event. “It’s possibility that keeps us motivated,” Aynsley told the breakfast gathering between airings of four videos showing the work the United Way undertakes in Kamloops and the region — including with Big Brothers Big Sisters, the Rent Bank and the Family Tree Centre. Aynsley noted the United Way raised more than $500,000 across Canada in 2013, with the Thompson-NicolaCariboo chapter helping 42,728 people. “We’re making great strides,” she said. “But, we can’t do it without your help.” Along with donations being gathered by myriad businesses and organizations, the United Way is again this year holding its Jail and Bail event on Nov. 27, in which notable Kamloops residents are “arrested” by Mounties and taken to a cell at the Tournament Capital Centre. There they languish until collecting enough “bail” to be released,
with the bail money going to the United Way. The first “arrest” occurred at the breakfast as Thompson Rivers University vice-president academic Christopher Seguin was cuffed by a
Premier Christy Clark and her cabinet. “Makes our job a lot easier.” The United Way’s campaign cabinet chairman this year is Todd Ring, an emergency-

balaclava-clad Mountie. Seguin’s release was secured by donations received at the dozens of tables at the event. “I’m glad to see the crowd is inside the hotel today, as opposed to outside,” Kamloops RCMP Supt. Brad Mueller quipped as he spoke about the fourth Jail and Bail initiative, referencing the need to control traffic and hundreds of protesters at the same site the day before during a Kamloops Chamber of Commerce luncheon featuring

room doctor at Royal Inland Hospital who spoke of the need to help those who are not as fortunate as others. While setting the fundraising goal at $2.5 million, Ring spoke of some of those in need he interacts with on a regular basis: The single mother who brings her child to the ER in the middle of the night and who cannot afford a ride back home; the homeless person who is on a first-name basis with staff at the ER, who comes in looking for a
bed on which to sleep and a meal to eat, the latter usually being a cold sandwich and a juice box; and the addict who simply cannot shake the addiction. ■ Also at the breakfast, achievements from the 2013 campaign were noted: • The Quantum Leap Award went to the Interior Health Authority, which increased its fundraising substantially. In 2012, the IHA raised $506 with eight donors. Last year, the IHA raised $12,000 with 56 donors. • The Largest Regional Corporate and Employee Campaign awards went to Teck Highland Valley Copper and the United Steelworkers Local 7619. • The Rookie Campaign of the Year went to KGHM Ajax. • The Greatest Impact Social Event Award went to the Kamloops RCMP for its work in the Jail and Bail effort. • The Largest Cariboo Corporation and Employee Campaign Award went to Taseko Gibraltar Mine and CAW Local 3108. • The Highest Per Capita Giving Award went to iCompass. • The Employee Campaign Co-ordinator of the Year Award went to Terri Young of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. • The Largest Kamloops Employee Campaign Award went to Thompson Rivers University, which raised $61,622 last year, which was double the amount it raised in 2012. ■ During the kickoff breakfast, Kamloops Mayor Peter Milobar presented Aynsley with the city’s Pioneer City Award. The award is a replica of the Overlanders statue at city hall, created by artists Garry Davies and Terry Norlander.

smash out the driver’s side window and take what they wanted. The items taken varied from wallets, purses, I phone, laptops, really anything of value.

Depot, the vehicle has been identified as the same truck that was stolen.

Candidate goes online, rather than door-to-door ANDREA KLASSEN STAFF REPORTER andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com
Online donation sites have raised money for everything from video games to medical bills — but can they do the same for political campaigns? A Kamloops city council candidate is banking on it. Earlier this week, Peter Kerek launched a GoFundMe.com page in an effort to collect online donations for his campaign for City Hall. “Most campaigns in Kamloops require at least $5,000 to have a chance, and $15,000 to be a serious contender,” Kerek’s page states. “I’m planning on spending up to $5,000 of my own to have a chance, but would really like to build up the campaign chest in order to get my message out.” The page also refers to Kerek as the city’s “most progressive candidate,” who is unlikely to be supported by “the most well-heeled elements of our city.” Kerek told KTW he got the idea for the page from his wife, who is familiar with the site from non-political projects. “It seemed like the most efficient way to reach the widest range of folks,” he said. “It’s easier for me to have an online presence rather than going door-to-door.” Kerek believes his campaign is unlikely to appeal to business and corporate donors because it doesn’t focus on tax reduction or other businessfriendly platforms. “So, if I’m going to rely on campaign donations, they’re going to be smaller amounts from ordinary folks

who I’m going to have a tough time meeting person-to-person along the way,” he said. As of noon yesterday (Sept. 18), Kerek had raised $275 in donations from six contributors. His goal is to raise $10,000. Because GoFundMe.com requires a real name for transactions, Kerek said he’s not worried about running afoul of B.C. election law, which states local government candidates can only accept anonymous donations of $50 or less. While Kerek isn’t the first candidate to turn to crowdfunding for cash, it doesn’t appear to be a common practice in most Canadian communities. Of the campaigns KTW found online, one of the most successful appears to be Bonita Zarrillo’s 2013 Coquitlam byelection campaign. Zarrillo, who was elected to Coquitlam council, raised just over $4,500 on crowdfunding site IndieGoGo.com. Several candidates in Ontario’s municipal elections are also using online donation platforms, with varying degrees of success — mostly under $1,000. The election is Nov. 15.
Mel Rothenburger has launched a website for his campaign for the Electoral Area P seat on the Thompson-Nicola Regional District. The site, Mel Rothenburger for TNRD, is at mel4tnrd.wordpress.com. Rothenburger said the site will be updated regularly.

MCINTYRE YOUNGEST COUNCIL CONTENDER Former TRUSU president hopes to densify downtown , recruit doctors ANDREA KLASSEN
STAFF REPORTER
andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com
At 25, the latest challenger for a city of Kamloops council seat is the youngest in the field so far — and Dustin McIntyre is hoping voters will see that as an advantage. McIntyre, who served as the president of Thompson River University’s student union in 2012, said his youthful energy will be an asset on council. “I’m energetic, I’m exuberant, I’m so passionate. I have this spark, I have this fire and I’m ready to bring it to council,” McIntyre said. “I don’t want to come in and make big changes, I want to make small, incremental changes and I don’t want people to think that because I’m young it’s a bad thing. I have the experience, I have the know-how.” As TRU’s president, McIntyre worked with the city on its last major transit expansion.
DAVE EAGLES/KTW
Dustin McIntyre, 25, is the latest nominee to toss their name in the hat for Kamloops city council. Voters will go to the polls on Nov. 15.
It’s an experience he believes prepared him to take on a role in city government. McIntyre said he would use a seat on council to push for further densification of the downtown core, and
recruitment of family doctors to Kamloops. “There’s not enough physicians in town to fill the needs of young families,” he said. “Young people, senior citizens, all walks of life need a general
practitioner and I want to represent that voice to make sure we get what we need from the province to bring those people into town.” McIntyre believes councillors can have a role in doctor recruit-

ment by lobbying the province and federal government and making it clear proper staffing of the city’s hospital is a priority. Downtown, he said he wants to encourage more developers to take on more multi-family projects and build taller apartment buildings. McIntyre also believes the city needs to push the province and feds harder to get the Ajax copper and gold mine a panel review, rather than its current comprehensive environmental assessment. Though he acknowledged previous attempts by the city to secure what’s considered a gold-standard review have come to naught, “there’s one thing of asking, there’s another thing of making it happen. “We can send all the letters we want, but we need to open that dialogue with our
MP, our MLA.” While he’s making his youth a focus of his campaign, McIntyre said he wants to represent people of all ages, not just the city’s younger voters. “When I was the president of the student union, we worked with all different demographics,” he said. “We have people upwards of 65, we
had students from 80 different countries. I know how to represent people whether they’re 85 or they’re 13.” McIntyre is the 14th declared candidate for council. Also in the running are Bob Dieno, Peter Kerek, Dieter Dudy, Andrew Miller, Annette Glover, Mike O’Reilly and all seven sitting councillors.

SILVER ALERT A WORTHWHILE IDEA
T
he devastating loss of Coquitlam grandfather Shin Noh hasn’t been enough to prompt the provincial or federal governments to consider setting up a silver alert program, yet it seems like such a simple — and good — idea. Modelled after Amber Alert for abducted children, a silver alert would be used when elderly people with dementia or Alzheimer’s go missing. In such a case, once the police have the facts in hand, a silver alert could be used to alert commercial radio stations, internet radio, satellite radio, television stations, social media, traditional media and cable TV as well as billboards and, possibly, text messages to relay information. It might not always result in the person being found, or might be overkill when someone loses track of a loved one and panics before finding them close to home, but on balance, a silver alert would speed up the dissemination of information, something which was a problem in the case of Shin Noh last September, when sightings came too late to be followed up on. Thankfully, not everyone is waiting for government to take action. A group of technically savvy individuals, including Michael Coyle of Coquitlam Search and Rescue, and supporters of the Noh family have formed BC Silver Alert, a citizen-run program that uses social media such as Twitter and Facebook to send out information, gleaned from police reports, about missing elderly people. This is a great idea, and although only in its infancy, has already been used in the case of a missing person in Richmond. But, while we applaud this citizens’ effort, we worry that it might not be as thorough and as far-reaching as a government-run program with greater resources. While BC Silver Alert shows the community will take care of itself, we worry that when a life is at stake, community spirit and goodwill may not be enough. — Tri-City News

Will critics offer apologies?
I
’ve been accused of being absent-minded before. In fact, my brother used to call me “professor” because I was kind of engrossed in my own thoughts and out of it, plus I wore glasses.
At least I think that’s why he called me that. Or maybe just because I was just so darn smart. Likely not. Anyway, lately it’s getting a bit out of hand. It’s like I can’t concentrate long enough to get the thing done that I originally intended to do. Yeah, I know the joke. I could never get a job at a frozen juice factory, you know, a lack of concentration . . . for concentrated orange juice . . . ah, forget about it. Like I was saying, ahem, I seem to be forgetting where I’m going or what I’m doing lately and it’s beginning to be a cause for concern. Although, I guess if I’m noticing, I’m doing it I guess I’m still OK. Not sure. Here’s a couple of examples. The other day, I had to leave work to go pick up one of the kids for his ortho appointment. I dutifully jumped in the truck and headed out. It was all good, except for one thing. My house, and the kid I was supposed to pick up, was back the other way. That would’ve been a right turn out of the parking lot. t was like I was skipping a key step and heading to the ortho office first. Of course, you always feel foolish when you do this kind of thing and curse a little (or maybe
GLENN MITCHELL

SHOT more) and do your best to find a turnaround spot that’s not very obvious, even though no one knows you screwed up, or cares for that matter. Now, I can blame this one on being in a hurry, as usual, because I leave things too late, and it was a busy day and all. But, wait until I tell you about the next incident. You see, I’m a list guy. First thing I do in the a.m. at work is write down a list of what I hope to accomplish that day. Some easy, some not so easy, but must be done and some are what I would call more like goals. Nevertheless I take great delight in crossing things off this list as the day progresses so I have some feeling of accomplishment and not to forget what I still need to do to earn my daily keep, so to speak. Anyway, bottom line, I’m lost without it. And, of course, being 54 and old school, this list is written by hand, in ink, on a reporternotebook style (with coils) lined
paper. Occasionally. I circle items for importance or urgency and it’s pretty much my road map (or GPS if you prefer) for the day. So, if, and when it goes missing there’s a bit of a problem and there’s no backup system or Houston to call in case of emergency. Like last Wednesday (gee, maybe I was just having a bad day, I should check my horoscope or something), when around 3 p.m., the little piece of 4” X 8” paper went AWOL. I looked in the usual places. Under the pile of papers in my 14” X 8” daytimer, in the middle of that same pile, in a few other piles on my desk (I know, I know, I have a clutter issue) and even in the piles on the counter behind my desk — all to no avail. I was lost, not to mention wondering how something could disappear into thin air on my watch. And, of course, we won’t even get into spending at least 15 minutes of my day fruitlessly looking for something that I had somehow misplaced. I eventually gave up. Of course, I found it the next day. I had flipped the page to write a note to myself sometime during the day, I guess, and so the page with my list on it was tucked in underneath the front of the notebook, you know exactly how these things are supposed to work. Gee, never thought to look there. Duh. Glenn Mitchell is editor of the Vernon Morningstar

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ASKING FOR MP’S HELP IS POINTLESS Editor: Re: The Sept. 16 letter from KamloopsThompson MP Cathy McLeod, in which she responded to a letter writer with concerns about his CPP and OAS payments (‘Your MP office is there to help’): Citizens and agriculture businesses asked for our MP’s help to save the research centre. Citizens asked our MP to save their postal outlet and services. Veterans asked our MP to help stop the shameful reduction in services and benefits. Native citizens have asked our MP to help take action to deal with their missing and murdered women. And the list goes on. The citizens of McLeod’s riding know any request for help will be answered by excuses and parroting of Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Asking our MP to help is pointless. Bob Mitchell Kamloops
MINE OPPOSITION LACKS REAL LOGIC Editor: Once again, I have to sit back and laugh at the complete lack of logic behind those who run our city. On the other side of the coin, I applaud KGHM. Who would want to invest in the City of Kamloops? We have a company come in and plan to re-open an existing mine within city limits and what do we do? We chase them away. We chase them just far enough away that they don’t have to put a cent locally into our pockets. Good job, Stop Ajax Mine. You haven’t stopped the mine, just the revenue from it. I enjoy the complaints of the placement of the mine. Do people not realize the Ajax pit predates Aberdeen? It was explored in 1906. This is nothing new. It was a mistake by the City of Kamloops to allow homes to be built
that close to an active mining claim. It would be blind ignorance to expect a city that was founded on mining to not have claims explored years later. What about Discovery Corporation’s Galaxy project, the Iron Mask mine that was mined back in 1896? Come on, people, our history is mining, not tournaments and minimum wage. The concept of having Kamloops as the Tournament Capital of Canada is a joke. If someone were to stand up and say they wanted to borrow $37.6 million and raise taxes by three per cent to develop our minimum-wage positions, we would laugh in their faces. But, we did this. The projected annual spending within the city was only $11.7 million as a result of this “investment.” Thanks for the higher taxes, but I want a well-paying job. Now that our council has realized
we need KGHM as a viable source of tax revenue, they decide to take on New Gold as a target. In one breath, they say we don’t want a mine within city limits. In the next breath, they say we want to include an existing mine into city limits. The fear-mongering candidates in our Nov. 15 civic election will likely get in, capitalizing on votes from residents with government jobs and the retired, who are unaffected by the real world’s economy. So, now we can run a city based on minimum-wage jobs while three mines lie on the outskirts, where people can make the real money. The only thing Kamloops has going for it is that the people who work at these mines will, or do, live in Kamloops and will spend their money here — more money than $11.7 million. Jason Currie Kamloops
ACTUALLY, ISRAEL IS A MAJOR MILITARY POWER Editor: Re: Adam Fitch’s letter of Aug. 21 (‘Israel ‘facts’ are fiction’), in which is disputes some statements in a Rational Thoughts column on the Israel/ Hamas conflict: It seems Fitch was so intent on showing columnist Bill Ligertwood how wrong he was that Fitch did not do any research before firing off a letter to
the editor. Israel is the major military power of the 13 countries in the Middle East. In world rankings, out of 100 countries, Israel is eighth for the number of tanks, fifth for armouredfighting vehicles, ninth for self-propelled guns, 17th for the total number of aircrafts, 13th for fighter aircrafts, 11th for
attack aircrafts, ninth for attack helicopters and 15th for its annual military budget. If that does not place Israel among the topranking powers, what does it indicate? The fact Judaism is not the third-largest religion is only a detail. Fitch did not address the crux of the matter brought forth in
Ligertwood’s column: Three Israelis were murdered and Israel started a war that has slaughtered more than 2,100 Palestinians. Is Fitch OK with that? Is Fitch one of those Christians Ligertwood was writing about?

BEATING THE WAITING GAME
PHYSICIAN HAS PLAN FOR PATIENTS DALE BASS STAFF REPORTER dale@kamloopsthisweek.com
Dr. Robert Colistro sees the same timeline play out every day — sometimes many times a day. A woman has found a lump in her breast. She’s already gone to her family doctor and has now been told to get an X-ray. If she’s lucky, she’ll get in that day for a mammogram. It might indicate more testing is required, perhaps an ultrasound or an MRI. They need to be booked and the woman is again waiting. The second test is done and, perhaps this time, a biopsy is necessary. Another booking. Another wait. The woman’s stress level is increasing. Her family, if she has told them, is worrying. Kamloops provides good health care to women making this journey, Colistro said — but he thinks it could be better. “Can we not tighten it up? A woman discovers a lump. It’s cancer until it is proven otherwise,” he said. “It’s the wait. Why can’t we take a good service and make it excellent?” Colistro has researched clinics that have streamlined the process, developing a concept he has passed along to the Interior Health Authority (IHA) to determine if it can be implemented at Royal Inland Hospital (RIH). In essence, it would involve a consolidation of the various steps in one location, with staffing that could see each step, from mammogram to biopsy, done the same day. The results would be explained to the patient after each step, although any required MRI would need to be timed with a woman’s menstrual cycle. “As such, we schedule an MRI
appointment on an urgent outpatient basis,” Colistro said. The process would also recognize some patients diagnosed with a lump that is concerning might need some time to process the information or talk with family before having a biopsy. “That needs to be included, too,” Colistro said. “We would give the woman the option, but she needs to keep the control.” Colistro sees many benefits to the system, one that is in place in various forms at a clinic in Abbotsford and at Mount Saint Joseph Hospital in Vancouver. Beyond addressing the waiting and related stress, it could simply improve the health-care experience for the patient. With a nurse-navigator assigned to each patient, there’s someone during the process who can address any concerns, help explain what is happening or just be a consistent face. For the out-of-town patient, the streamlining also eliminates travel time — several hours when coming from the far reaches of the IHA region — that are just more moments of worry and stress as the woman makes the trip back and forth. If she needs additional tests, she is making that trip again — and perhaps again and again. “With co-ordinated care like this, there are efficiencies and we can tighten up the diagnosis,” Colistro said, noting any tissue removed from a biopsy and sent for testing won’t generate a result for between five and seven days, a timeline that can’t be avoided. “That would be the best possible care.” Each year, RIH diagnoses about 100 breast cancers. “So, that’s 100 families affected and then there’s the ripple effect,” Colistro said.
“What about mom? What about my daughter? My cousin? Some breast cancers have the genetic link.” Colistro said speeding up the system could help with the aggressive cancers “where weeks can make a difference.” This is not to say health care provided now isn’t good, Colistro emphasized. Delays are in line with other hospitals and health authorities. And, he understands the IHA has many projects proposed and each one needs to be given consideration. Nancy Serwo, interim healthservice administrator at RIH, said she understands Colistro’s vision, noting the IHA has been talking about enhancement of breasthealth care and is supportive of the vision. She said it is viewed as a positive thing because it makes the journey easier. However, she added, at this point, it is an idea that is just being explored at the healthauthority level. The city’s family doctors, oncologists and surgeons have all been consulted on the idea, Colistro said, and all are on board. About 8,000 women in the IHA region have mammograms done each year, screening done for women in the 50- to 79-year-old age range who have not found any lumps. An average of 40 otherwise undetected cancers are found in that group every year. Statistics show the 8,000 figure represents about half the number in the age range when tests are recommended. Hundreds of them will be sent on for biopsies. “And all of those women think they have breast cancer,” Colistro said. “There is no price tag on peace of mind.”

The fundraiser is an outgrowth of the 16 annual Pink Ribbon balls Anthony Salituro and his aunt, Josephine Bruno, held in the city to raise money for breast-cancer research. Tickets are $200 and are available by calling 250-314-2325.
By the numbers In the Thompson-Nicola region: • 135 women are diagnosed with breast cancer each year. • Last year, more than 8,300 women had a screening mammogram and more than 830 were referred on to additional testing. In Canada: • 22,700 women and 180 men are diagnosed with breast cancer annually. • 5,400 die every year from it. • 473 women are diagnosed every week. • 104 women die from breast cancer every week. • One in nine women are likely to develop breast cancer. • One in 28 will die from it.

Quarterback Stephen Schuweiler has helped lead the Kamloops Broncos to their best start in franchise history, but Connor Whitelaw, who entered the season as the team’s backup, has made a case to take over under centre. ALLEN DOUGLAS/KTW

he quarterback carousel seems poised to stop spinning. Mike Faisthuber, the Kamloops Broncos’ offensive co-ordinator, said a decision will be made on the man under centre — either Stephen Schuweiler or Connor Whitelaw — in advance of a showdown with the Valley Huskers of Chilliwack (0-7) on Saturday, Sept. 20, at Hillside Stadium. The B.C. Football Conference (BCFC) tilt is slated to get underway at 7 p.m. “In recent years, we’ve had a tendency to give one quarterback a half and another quarterback a half, so I’ve stopped doing that,” said Faisthuber, whose Broncos are 5-2 on the campaign. “I saw how much it hurt them, in terms of their play, and I’ve tried

Saturday, Sept. 20 Chilliwack @ Kamloops 7 p.m., Hillside Stadium to be open with them this week. “We need that one guy to really step up and be like, ‘OK, this is my team and I’m going with it.’ After analyzing each of the pivots’ play this week in practice, Faisthuber was expected to meet with receivers coach Jeremy White and running backs coach/manager of football operations Brad Yamaoka. They were scheduled to make their decision and relay it to head coach Duncan Olthuis on Thursday,
Sept. 18, after KTW’s press deadline. “Duncan’s been really, really accommodating in letting me do what I want on offence,” Faisthuber said. “Whatever we decide, he goes with.” Schuweiler entered the season as the No. 1 QB and led the Broncos to a 3-0 start with two wins over Valley and one victory over the Westshore Rebels of Langford, both considered among the BCFC’s weaker teams. His numbers were impressive in that three-game stretch, completing 45 of 92 passes for 888 yards, 10 touchdowns and four interceptions. The Broncos came back to earth in Week 5, when the Okanagan Sun of Kelowna thumped them 54-16 at Hillside on Aug. 23. Langley then trounced Kamloops 70-24 on the Lower Mainland on Aug. 31. Schuweiler’s combined statistics in the losses — 42-for-78, 549 yards, three TDs and four picks — were
not great, but they weren’t dismal, considering the defences he was up against. Connor Whitelaw got the nod in Week 7 against Westshore on Vancouver Island and staked his claim to be the starter. He connected on 16 of 30 passes for 337 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions in a 42-14 victory over the Rebels. “Connor played great. He knows it. I told him,” said Faisthuber, whose up-tempo offence has been a big part of the Broncos’ recent successes. Both quarterbacks saw time in last weekend’s 24-14 victory over hometown Westshore: Schuweiler — 6-for-9, 53 yards, one TD and one pick; Whitelaw — 11-for-13, 198 yards. With both QBs, their strengths can also be their weaknesses. Schuweiler is a gunslinger who can put up big yards and throw touchdowns, but has

been prone to interceptions. Whitelaw has good pocket presence and is more careful with the ball, but has tended at times to be too conservative. “I talked to both guys on Tuesday and told them, and it was a rough meeting, but I said, ‘As of right now, you’re not starting and you’re not starting and we’ll have a meeting on Thursday,’” Faisthuber said. “We have to look at what’s best for the team.” In a perfect world, Faisthuber said, the QB that starts on Saturday will be the No. 1 guy the rest of the way, charged with the task of leading the Broncos to their first-ever home playoff game. “We have a big three-game push coming up here,” Faisthuber said. “They both can produce. It’s just a matter of us feeling confident in one guy. The decision will be made by Friday.”

She’s the Martha Stewart of the Kamloops Storm, the Chef Ramsey of the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League, the Wolfgang Puck of B.C junior B. But, most importantly, she’s the alternative to midnight trips to 7-Eleven. Kerri Patterson, wife of head coach Ed Patterson, has become the unofficial chef of the Kamloops Storm. She makes every meal the team eats on the road. “She heard me bitching about eating the pizza and stuff on the bus,” Ed said, harkening back to when he rejoined the squad in 2013. “We tried it one road trip — we went to Kimberley, Fernie and Creston, I believe — and Kerri made the meals for the whole trip,” Ed said. “The boys loved it, so we just continued it on from there.” Since Ed returned to the Storm’s bench in 2013, Kerri has had her
hands full and her time away from the rink on McArthur Island is punctuated with trips to Costco and hours spent in her kitchen. Making meals for a junior B club is no small task. Preparing enough food to feed more than 20 athletes in their athletic prime takes time, dedication and planning. It also makes for a huge mess. Hours after the team left for Sicamous this week, Kerri said it still looked like a bomb had exploded in her kitchen. The menu for the trip to Sicamous included a black bean and quinoa salad, chicken, pasta salad and protein shakes. The diet will be similar for this weekend’s road trip, when the Storm (1-2-0-0) bus to Nelson (1-0-1-0) and Spokane (1-1-0-0). Perhaps the most surprising part of the cooking arrangement, though, is the fact Kerri is a vegetarian. Rarely, if ever, does she eat the food she prepares for the team. Sometimes, she still
wonders how it is she got roped into the job. “I have no idea,” Kerri said, laughing. “I think Ed volunteered me.” At practice this week, Ed didn’t go as far as to say he volunteered his wife, but was honest when asked if she liked to cook. “No, she likes to win,” he said. “She doesn’t actually like it. She just knows that it helps us win and she likes to be part of the winning side.” The arrangement has certainly made a difference for the team, both on and off the ice. Storm forward Ryan Keis remembers what it was like in the days before Kerri started making his meals — and the memories aren’t fond. “The first year I was here, you didn’t get any of that stuff,” he said. “We’d have to pay for it [food] on your own and all that stuff. So, it’s really nice to have these meals for you. Good for you, too.” When the 19-yearold forward first suited up for Kamloops in 2012, dinner came,
more often than not in the form of late-night trips to the nearest convenience store. KTW spoke to a number of players this week, all of whom praised Kerri’s cooking. But, the chef was still a little skeptical of the compliments. “What are they going to say, right? I’m the coach’s wife,” she said. Ed said the team doesn’t save any money cooking for its players as $200 pizza bills have been replaced by $200 grocery bills for each road trip. But, getting Kerri to cook for the team was never about saving money. “We expect them to act like professionals,” Ed said. “They need to eat like them, too.” Whether Kerri believes it or not, her hours in the kitchen are appreciated by the club. “It’s pretty awesome. It doesn’t get much better than that,” Keis said. “I’ve never been anywhere else where you get treated that good.”

WOLFPACK WELCOME TOUGH COMPETITION Travis Froehlich will have no choice but to stand out if the WolfPack men’s soccer team is going to have success this season. So far, the 21-yearold goalkeeper from Salmon Arm is off to a solid start. Thompson Rivers University went 0-1-1 in its first weekend of Canada West soccer action, playing to a pair of close finishes against the Trinity Western University Spartans and the University of the Fraser Valley Cascades. Froehlich stopped all but one shot on the weekend, pitching the shutout in a 0-0 draw against the Spartans, before falling 1-0 to the Cascades. “Travis Froehlich played fantastic,� WolfPack head coach John Antulov said. “Our whole backline was great. Entering his fourth year, Froehlich might be depended on more than ever in 2014, as
the WolfPack tries to find its footing in the CIS. He has shown, in the past, that he can handle the pressure that comes with being a top keeper, backstopping the WolfPack to a silver medal at the 2013 Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association national championship. He was also named a second team all-star and the top goaltender at the Pacific Western Athletic Association’s provincial championship. Froehlich is just one part of the team, though, and it will be up to the offence to get the goals needed to make victories out of the keeper’s work. So far, the goals haven’t been there, but it’s still early. “The results maybe haven’t been what we wanted, but I thought, overall, from a team effort, our guys played really well, battled really hard and gave a good

WolfPack women in unfamiliar territory TEAM WINLESS AFTER OPENING WEEKEND
With the first two matches of the 2014 Canada West season in the books, the WolfPack women’s soccer team finds itself in unfamiliar territory — without a victory. But ten games remain on the schedule and, to be fair, nobody expected the team to be dominant right out of the gates. “I think they were realistic,” head coach Tom McManus said of his team, on Thursday, Sept. 18. “They weren’t overly upset on Saturday, because there was a lot of nerves and it was the first game in the CIS, speed and everything. “But they were disappointed about the Fraser Valley game, they thought they deserved a better fate than what they got.” Thompson Rivers University faced two of the best teams in its division to start the season — the Trinity Western University Spartans (3-0-1), who have won four national championships in the last six years, and the University of the Fraser Valley Cascades (3-1), who have started the season at 3-1.
The WolfPack finished the weekend 0-2, matching the team’s total losses for a season in 2012 and 2013, one more than it had all of 2011. Entering play today, Friday, Sept. 19, things won’t get any easier. The WolfPack will face the third-seeded University of British Columbia Thunderbirds (2-2) this evening, 5 p.m., Hillside Stadium, before the University of Victoria Vikes (1-0-1) come to town for a showdown at noon tomorrow. Stiff competition or not, though, TRU is a team built around a winning culture. McManus said nothing changes with a little early-season adversity. “We just have to look at it and we’ll continue to work,” he said. “I just continue on with what I’m doing. I set up the game plan all the way through and we’re still going for those goals we have. “If we can accomplish that by making the playoffs, then I think we’ve done very well in our first year.”

Chase said he was “pretty happy, overall,” with the pre-season play of his club and was looking forward to seeing his finalized roster in action versus the Thunderbirds. The Blazers got offence from a number of players in their exhibition games, with Jaxon Reid, Greg Lind, with two, Ryan Ignace, Tyler Collens, Josh DeCoffe and Mathew Facchinelli finding twine.

Female coach in NBA a pro-sports first
T
he National Basketball Association’s Trail Blazers (capital T, capital B) may reside in Portland, but the real trailblazers (lower case all the way) are the current champion San Antonio Spurs. After the NBA hit the news last year as the first major professional sports league to employ an out-of-the-closet gay player (Jason Collins), they have since carried on with their social enlightenment by hiring the first female coach. OK, so Becky Hammon is only an assistant coach with the Spurs, working under probably the best bench boss in the league in Gregg Popovich. Hammon’s hiring in August didn’t make Jason Collins-Michael Sam-type headlines, but it represents one of the most progressive moves
Ruth Elsie Denton (HEBERT)
February 14, 1924 – September 5, 2014
Ruth passed away peacefully in her sleep. She will be sadly missed by her loving husband of 50 years, Ray, her sons, (the McKnight boys) George, Jim (Barbara), Harry (Faye), Bill (Tracey), 8 grandchildren, 8 greatgrandchildren, 2 sisters, Dorothy and Lila, and many nieces and nephews. Ruth was born in Squam Bay, BC, resided in Port Alberni, Mission and Qualicum Beach. Flowers gratefully declined. Ruth’s great love was her family. Please spend quality time with yours.
BRUCE PENTON in sports. Hammon is one of the best players in the history of the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA), standing seventh in the league’s all-time scoring list. But, age (37) and injuries led her to start thinking about her future, and she wanted it to be in coaching. But could she land a coaching gig in the NBA? Why not? She was playing for San Antonio’s WNBA team, the Stars, but missed most of last year with a knee injury. She expressed an
interest in coaching and the Spurs braintrust welcomed her aboard, allowing her to sit in on meetings, sit behind the bench during games, break down film and generally learn the NBA ropes from the inside. In August, they made it official, hiring her as the NBA’s first full-time, female assistant coach. In an ESPN.com story by Michelle Smith, Popovich was quoted as saying, “She’s been perfect. She knows when to talk and when to shut up. That’s as simple as you can put it, and a lot of people don’t figure that out.� Said Spurs’ forward Danny Green: “Everybody knows her and respects her.� This hiring isn’t about Popovich being some desperate coach looking for some publicity.

His doctor said he will be undergoing two rounds of chemotherapy before they determine the next step in his treatment. His brother entered the mayoral race after Ford withdrew his bid for re-election last Friday, opting instead to run as a councillor in the same ward he represented for a decade before being elected to the top job in 2010. He urged voters Thursday to rally behind Coun. Doug Ford, who has yet to officially launch his campaign.
Aboriginal women, girls human-trafficking targets OTTAWA — A newly disclosed report says aboriginal women and girls are easy prey for human traffickers because they are more likely to suffer from poverty, drug addictions and mental-health problems. The Public Safety Canada study sheds new light on how women and girls are forced into the sex trade by members of their own families, pimps acting as boyfriends and small, loosely defined gangs. The May 2014 report, unreleased until now, will fuel the fire raging in Canada over the Conservative government’s refusal to hold a national inquiry into
murdered and missing aboriginal women and girls. Many people who took part in the study said human trafficking and murdered and missing women and girls are all part of the same, much larger problem. Persistent calls for an inquiry have intensified since RCMP commissioner Bob Paulson revealed that nearly 1,200 aboriginal women have gone missing or been murdered in Canada in the last 30 years. But the Conservatives have so far resisted calls for an inquiry, saying the issue has been studied enough and it’s time for action. — The Canadian Press

Costco will stop accepting Amex THE CANADIAN PRESS
TORONTO — Costco Wholesale Canada and its only credit card supplier, American Express, are severing their 15-year relationship. A Costco spokesman says that Dec. 31 will be the last day that the big-box store operator will accept Amex payments, although cobranded cards will continue to be accepted as membership identification. The company hasn’t disclosed what will replace Amex cards at its 88 Canadian stores. Costco spokesman Ron Damiani also says the company isn’t saying why it’s parting ways with Amex. Costco will have information about new payment and membership card options soon, but Damiani declined to be more specific. Costco is known for operating no-frills warehouse-type stores that require shoppers to sign up for memberships and limited payment choices — primarily debit card, cash and American Express. “There was a time when we didn’t accept any credit cards. Since we started the agreement with American Express, we only accepted American Express cards,’’ Damiani said from Costco’s Canadian head office in Ottawa.

felt like a teen who had thrown a house party while her parents were away, only for Mom and Dad to call and say they were on their way home early. My call came on Saturday morning — JESSICA and I was still in bed. WALLACE Weekend-morning Generation plans had involved a GAP rare morning sleep-in before moseying out of bed for a hot mug of coffee, cranking Young the Giant on the stereo and, once the caffeine had settled in, dancing my way to a clean house well into the afternoon. Maybe I’d even stop for a nap — it was Saturday, after all — before heading out for groceries and returning to assemble an impressive Gordon Ramsay-worthy meal to greet my incoming houseguest at around 7 p.m. Although I was more likely to be tossed from Hell’s Kitchen by a screaming Ramsay than receive comments about my “absolutely sublime” creation, I was intent on doing my best to roll out the red carpet that day. I was honoured to host because this guest barely gets time off work, let alone to visit, and he was driving all the way from Saskatchewan for a muchneeded and deserved week-long getaway. “Where?” I asked. He was less than 200 kilometres away and a half-day ahead of schedule. He had driven through the night while I had been counting more sheep than can be found on the road between the three Canadian provinces he crossed to get here. Unlike me, he apparently didn’t need the Zzzs. “Great,” I said, surprised at the news, but also by the high pitch that was my voice. “Why don’t you stop for a quick bite?” “Clearwater is beautiful.” It bought an extra 60 minutes on the clock — every minute needed — and I jumped from my bed faster than you can say, “Mom and Dad are coming home early! Everybody out!” I sprang for the coffee pot — because there’s no skipping that step — while mentally noting all the housework I had been neglecting during weeks of summer fun. The bedroom, the living room, the bathroom — oh my. There were no clean towels nor fresh bedsheets. There was no food nor clean dishes. There was a significant amount of bird feces that had piled up on my walking path, hazardous to anyone unaware of the fancy footwork necessary to dodge the droppings. I did, however, have some beer in the fridge — the only thing working in my favour. Anticipation for this guest had been months in the making, and I wanted everything to be perfect. Racing around and power-cleaning my place was not the modern-day Mrs. Doubtfire reference I had pictured in my head. But, I accepted the fate as my guest’s wheels rolled into the driveway. The place was in decent order, but walking down the steps to my house, I kicked the poop off the pathway, recognizing it wasn’t perfect. We sat down on the deck with a bevy, each relieved to leave our roads behind us. In discussing plans for the week, he told me not to worry. Just be yourself and pretend I’m not here, he said. We neither ate the groceries nor hung out inside my clean house until around 7 p.m. that night. None of it had mattered. He wasn’t the parents — he was the party.

Boogie-woogie blues DALE BASS STAFF REPORTER dale@kamloopsthisweek.com
Blues pianist Kenny Wayne will be performing in Kamloops on Friday, Sept. 26 and Saturday, Sept. 27.
K
enny Wayne didn’t decide to make the blues his career. Rather, he said, “it was decided for me.” Wayne, who performs with the added words “blues boss” between his first and last names, said he was doing a concert in Spain one year when “a guy from Scotland asked me to play some blues so I did and people started to like it.” He was intrigued and, eventually, hooked, not only because of the music, but because “you don’t hear many piano blues players.” Born Kennethy Wayne Spruell 70 years ago, Wayne spent the 1960s and 1970s playing with pop and rock bands in Los Angeles. In 1980, he moved to Vanouver and by 1994, hey was taking his act on the road, touring throughout Europe. His first three albums with independent label Electro-Fi were nominated for Junos and he received one in 2006 for Let It Loose. “When I started getting Juno nominations and magazine covers and tons of write-ups,” he said, “I found there really was a market for it. It was amazing, it blew my mind.” Partnering with Michael Kaeshammer sent Wayne’s piano playing into the boogiewoogie style he loved as a youngster, music that also influences his music — particularly when he tours. “The Europeans love it,” he said. “I thought it would be good to do to compete with the guitar lords out there. “I took a real liking to it and am a bit of an ambassador for it in South America. “They go crazy for it. I’m one of the first boogie-woogie piano guys to go there since the 1940s.” The Kamloops-based Interior Blues Association of B.C. is bringing Wayne to town for two shows this month as it kicks off its season of music at the Ramada Inn, 555 West Columbia St., on Sept. 26 and Sept. 27. It’s the first time Wayne will be back in the city performing in several years. “I dress up like a brand new car,” he said of his gigs. “I go out there and play like a crazy man — but with class.” The goal is to keep the dance floor busy, he said, so the set list will have his own music but will be supplemented There’s a hint of gospel in his playing,
Wayne said, a reflection of the simple reality that dad was a preacher and Wayne grew up singing in the choir. A child prodigy, his father encouraged his love of music — with some reservations. While the young Wayne loved to listen to Sly and the Family Stone or The Doobie Brothers, his father saw rock as not much

Spartans descend on the mountain trails WiL is performing at On the Rocks Pub and Grill, 1265 Rogers Way, on Oct. 2.
Make Make it to the show
Roots-rocker William Mimnaugh — who performs as WiL — is releasing his fifth studio album later this month and is coming to Kamloops to help promote it. Make Make, the first single from El Paseo, has been released for
free download through Mimnaugh’s mobile app at Volu.me/WiL. Mimnaugh also turned to octal media to pay for the album, using a crowd-funding platform called Fanpush. Within a few days, he met his $8,500 goal — and went over
it by almost another $3,000, to help pay for the 11 tracks. “These songs just came pouring out of me,” he said. “They are some of the best I feel I have ever written to date and I’m so grateful that I am now able to record
these songs and put the best of what we got on the new record. “Was it a labour of love? Yes, absolutely, and I’m proud of the outcome.” WiL will perform on Oct. 2 at On the Rocks Pub and Grill, 1265 Rogers Way.

Thigh high Ěames, bone-chilling mud pits and rows of barbed wire are just a few of the challenges racers will conquer before reaching the ęnish line at Sun Peaks this month. For the second year, the mountain community hosts the Reebok Spartan Races on September 27 and 28. Canada’s ęrst and only Ultra Beast (42+ km and 56 obstacles) joins the Beast (21+ km and 28 obstacles) on Saturday, and then on Sunday it’s the Sprint (5km and 15 obstacles) and Junior (ages 5 to 10). “We’re looking forward to hosting some of Spartan’s most elite athletes from all over North America for the Ultra Beast.” says Aidan Kelly, Director of Sales and Marketing for Sun Peaks Resort Corporation. “At the same time, we encourage anyone to get involved whether it’s the Sprint, Junior or as a volunteer or spectator.” On Saturday spectators can enter a festival area for $10 which includes a ride on the Sunburst chairlift to view some of the races’ favourite obstacles—both underneath the chairlift during the ride up and at the top.

Thank You to our 2014 Campaign Cabinet for Leading the Way Our vision is a better life for everyone where each person is able to reach their full potential. Last year United Ways’ support touched 42,728 individuals and their families in our region. Unfortunately the issues facing our people and our communities are complex and ongoing and are not solved in one Campaign. To continue this work our Campaign Cabinet, along with the Board of Directors have identified the need to raise $2.5 million this year – an increase of $300,000 over last year. Making that a reality takes dedication, compassion and commitment from strong leaders. We look to their leadership and thank them for this bold move. Please support United Way and help us reach our goal of $2.5 million so we can continue to create life altering change that is shaping our community. Visit www.unitedwaytnc.ca/give-now to make a donation today.

Take back tonight on Victoria Street
The annual Take Back The Night event will be held tonight (Sept. 19), in downtown Kamloops. The rally to call for an end to violence will begin at 5:45 p.m. at the corner of Victoria Street and Seventh Avenue with music and speeches and culminate in a march at 6:45 p.m. Musicians Dodie Goldney and Michele Botel will begin playing at 5:30 p.m. and again after the march, which will end up back at Victoria and Seventh. While the Take Back The Night movement began in San Francisco in 1979 as a response to male violence against women and children, women and men of all ages are invited to take part in Kamloops. Take Back The Night is now held throughout the world, with the local rally and march emphasizing the theme: Safety Rights For All Women. This year’s event is hosted by the Kamloops Sexual Assault Counselling Centre and the YMCAYWCA Women’s Shelter.
Lego robots for kids at science centre Robots are taking over this fall at the Big Little Science Centre. The centre is again running the Robotics Club, available to children ages 10 and up.

Kids can work at their own pace and experience level. Club members will have the chance to attend five weekly sessions on Thursday or Friday afternoons from 2:45 p.m. to 4 p.m. beginning either this month or in November. The first session runs until the end of October. The second begins on Nov. 6 and runs until mid-December. The club is $50.

Health Quest Chiropractic has a variety of services to offer multidisciplinary treatment plans to help you recover from acute injuries, treat chronic problems or improve your health and wellness.
Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression is a safe and effective treatment for a variety of spine related disorders such as Degenerative Disc Disease, Osteoarthritis, Herniations, Bulges, Sciatica, Stenosis, etc. Decompression may relieve pain, numbness and tingling in the back, neck, arms or legs. The SpineMed 200 Decompression Table can reduce disc bulging and improve disc height in the low back or neck relieving nerve irritation without drugs or invasive surgery. By distracting the vertebrae, Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression, decreases the pressure inside the disc to retract the bulging material, hydrate the tissues to alleviate symptoms and re-establish disc function. Results of Decompression Therapy vary for each individual. To see if you qualify for Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Therapy, call or click today for a consultation.
Running for a special reason Law-enforcement officials participating in a run and relay in support of the Special Olympics hope to beat last year’s $2,500 raised by 35 runners. The Bridging the Gap run and relay is scheduled for Oct. 18 at Riverside Park, starting at 10 a.m. The fee is $50 or $60, depending on the category. It is open to all participants and will include RCMP, Department of Fisheries and Oceans and other justice system staff. Organizer Meg Grainger, a general-duty RCMP member, said law-enforcement related events have raised $3.4 million for the Special Olympics. “We’ve added a two-kilometre zombie shuffle because we’re close to Halloween, and why not? Zombies are fun” Grainger said. Money raised here goes to fund Special Olympic events and equipment. The event also includes a five-kilometre run or walk, 13-kilometre run and 13-kilometre team relay.

Riding out of the shadows for mental health
W
ho would have thought conversations about mental-health challenges and triumphs would create such a stir in our communities this past spring? Maybe it had something to do with bringing a common experience out of the shadows. About one in five Canadians experiences a mental illness or substance-use problem in their lifetime. It may also have had something do with an Olympic champion leading the pack — Clara Hughes. Clara’s Big Ride for

Bell Let’s Talk, a national bicycle tour, conveyed a clear message: Talking is the best way to start breaking down the barriers associated with mental illness. Many people living with a mental illness say the stigma is worse than the symptoms they feel.
Experiences of stigma (negative labels) and discrimination (the behaviour that results from these negative labels) are the greatest barriers to living a fulfilling life. Stigma and discrimination are barriers that prevent many from seeking help. Stigma often comes from fear and misunderstanding of people with mental-health illness. There are many ways you can help reduce stigma and discrimination in your community. Educate yourself and others about mental illness. The website heretohelp.bc.ca is a good place to start
for information. Mental health first aid courses are also available in many communities and can improve your mental health literacy, skills and knowledge to help people in your community. Meet and talk with people who can share their experiences of mental illness and recovery. Be aware of your attitudes, behaviour and language. See a person beyond their mental illness, for who they are, their dreams and
unique qualities. Focus on the positive. Mental health is only one part of who people are. Let’s recognize positive successes in people’s lives. Be inclusive of everyone. People with mental health and substance use problems have a right to an equal part in society. This includes access to jobs, housing, recreation and other services. Finally, on the theme of stigma reduction and promoting community discus-
sion, was World Suicide Prevention Day. This year, the Canadian Association for Suicide Prevention (CASP) and the Mental Health Commission of Canada (MHCC) partnered to promote this year’s theme “Connecting Canada.” The theme is intended to highlight that being connected with oneself, with others, and a community is critical to ones sense of hopefulness and wellbeing. Continue the conversation well beyond the events of World
Suicide Prevention Day. And, remember, help is available. If you or someone you care about is currently in crisis, call 1-888-353-2273 (1-888353-CARE) or go online to crisiscentre.bc.ca and http://youthinbc. com/ for more information.

Owned by Telus, it houses cloud storage, information — everything from music to health-care records — retrieved by computers and smartphones that is stored offsite. The centre’s biggest customer is B.C. Hydro, which stores everything from billing data to infrastructure information. The building took 1.5 years to construct with a $75-million price tag and has 25 local jobs, with another 50 outside of the city. The extreme security is due to the private nature of the information being stored.

Netflix dominates prime-time data SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE ACCOUNTED FOR UP TO 40 PER CENT OF DATA STREAMED MICHAEL OLIVIERA
THE CANADIAN PRESS
TORONTO — When Canadians jump on the Internet during primetime evening hours it’s increasingly because they want to stream something on Netflix, suggests Waterloo, Ont.-based networking company Sandvine. An analysis of downloading traffic during evenings in Canada found that 30 to 40 per cent of the data consumed was usually linked to Netflix streams, which was higher than any other Internet activity. On a typical evening, YouTube viewing, web browsing, Facebook usage and accessing content via BitTorrent were the other top ways Canadians chewed through megabytes and gigabytes. Prime-time Netflix streaming has grown about threefold in recent
years, Sandvine reported. Three years ago, Netflix accounted for just 13.5 per cent of downloaded data during evening hours in Canada. On mobile networks in Canada, social media drives the most downloading of data. Over 25 per cent of the data downloaded by Canadian mobile devices typically funnels through social networking apps. Facebook gets the most usage followed by Instagram and Twitter. YouTube accounted for about 20 per cent of downloading traffic on mobile devices.

Nine Magnotta jurors chosen so far MONTREAL â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Nine jurors have now been selected to hear evidence at Luka Rocco Magnottaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first-degree murder trial. Two men were chosen in a Montreal courtroom on Thursday, Sept. 18 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a freelance translator and a professor at a junior college. That means the jury is so far made up of five men and four women. The process will continue until 16 people have been picked â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 14 jurors and two alternates who will serve as a safeguard until the trial begins. Ultimately, 14 jurors will hear the case and a dozen will deliberate on the final verdict. The 32-year-old Magnotta has pleaded not guilty to five charges, including first-degree murder, in connection with the May 2012 slaying and dismemberment of 33-year-old Jun Lin, a Chinese engineering student. The trial is expected to last between six and eight weeks and
is scheduled to begin hearing evidence this coming Monday. Besides the murder
charge, Magnotta has pleaded not guilty to committing an indignity to a body; publish-
ing obscene material; criminally harassing Prime Minister Stephen Harper and other mem-
bers of Parliament; and mailing obscene and indecent material. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Canadian Press

TORONTO — Telus Corp.’s first “transparency’’ report reveals that the Vancouver-based telecom company received about 103,500 official requests for information about its customers last year. A majority of the requests — nearly 56,800 — were in emergency situations, such as to verify the location of 911 callers and another 40,900 requests were for names and addresses that are publicly available through directories. Telus also received about 4,300 court-ordered requests in 2013, mostly as part of domestic police investigations, but also two foreign requests made under Canada’s treaty obligations. It also received 154 other requests as part of police investigations into suspected Internet child exploitation, without court orders — but the company says it no longer will provide such information in most cases without a court order. Telus executive vice-president Eros Spadotto says the company is trying to strike a balance between fulfilling its responsibilities under the law and concern
TELECOM GIANT SAYS MOST WERE EMERGENCIES for its customers privacy. “You don’t have to look very far to know that this has become one of the key areas with clients all over the world, no matter what service provider they have, in terms of trying to understand how their information is being used,’’ Spadotto said in an interview from Ottawa ahead of the report’s release. “When you take that background, our customers-first mentality and the way the world’s evolving, it seemed like a natural for us to do this.’’ Toronto-based Rogers Communications issued a similar report in June, the first major Canadian carrier to do so after Chantal Bernier — then the interim federal privacy commissioner — said in April that her office had repeatedly asked telecom companies to disclose statistics and the scope of warrantless disclosure of data. The privacy office asked 12 telecom companies in 2011 for information about their customer-information disclosure but, instead of receiving individual reports, received aggregate data
from nine of the 12 through an industry association. The privacy office estimated the federal government had asked Canadian telecom companies for private customer information about 1.2 million times each year. In June, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled 8-0 that police need a search warrant to get information from Internet service providers about their subscribers’ identities during investigations. The top court’s unanimous decision dealt with the case of a 19-year-old Saskatchewan man who was charged with possessing and distributing child pornography after police used his Internet address to get further details from his online service provider, all without first obtaining a search warrant. The court ruled that the information collected should not be excluded as evidence from the man’s trial, but it would be up to the Crown to rebut the presumption that a warrantless search is unreasonable under Canada’s privacy protections.

Prince Edward begins Bones found in Saskatchewan visit THE CANADIAN PRESS
MOOSE JAW — Prince Edward, the Earl of Wessex, has launched a threeday visit to Saskatchewan. He landed at 15 Wing Moose Jaw on Wednesday afternoon and was greeted by Lt.-Gov. Vaughn Solomon Schofield. Following a short welcoming ceremony, the prince inspected the parade consisting of members of the Saskatchewan Dragoons and the Royal Canadian Air Force. Moose Jaw Mayor Deb Higgins said the prince is “always very personable and willing to meet the public.’’ After a private function with relatives of military personnel at 15 Wing, Prince Edward travelled to the headquarters of the Saskatchewan
Dragoons, of which he is colonel-inchief. Before heading inside for a BBQ with its members, the prince took some time to meet about 100 people from the public that showed up. Marion Tolley said it was a great honour to meet a member of the Royal Family. “He’s been here before and I never got that close to him before,’’ she said. “He shook my hand and I welcomed him to Moose Jaw,’’ said Laura Kuntz, who met the Queen years ago in Regina. “It’s royalty, they don’t come too often. We feel honoured to have come out to see him.’’ The royal visit continues Thursday in Regina with stops on Friday in Saskatoon and Swift Current.
RCMP PROBING BEE DEATHS BRANDON, Man. — Police in Brandon, Man., are looking into a report that thousands of honey bees have been poisoned in the region in recent months.
Mounties say in a news release that two locations northwest of Brandon in the rural municipality of Elton are involved. They say the alleged poisonings are believed
to have happened between Aug. 14 and Sept. 3. Mounties say the bee producers have suffered a substantial financial loss. — The Canadian Press
river not human WINNIPEG — Winnipeg police say bones found by volunteers searching the Red River are not human. Police said on Twitter that a forensic analysis by pathologists has confirmed the bones are from an animal. Volunteers searching the banks of the Red River came across the bones earlier this week. The group is combing the shoreline and dragging the bottom of the river, searching for clues about the fate of missing and murdered aboriginal women. A blood-splattered pillowcase, a bloody rug and a set of dentures have also been turned over to police. — The Canadian Press

LEARNING THE THREE R’S JANE CASSIE SPECIAL TO KTW travelwriterstales.com
A
t this stage of our lives, my husband, Brent, and I seem to be re-learning the 3 R’s. No, thank heavens, it’s not reading, writing and arithmetic. With our roving home in tow, it’s all about RVing, Recreating and Relaxing. B.C. is home to more than 1,500 campgrounds and, during this trip, we discover the arid Okanagan is the perfect place to buff up on these basics. Dozens of sites dot the sagebrush hills and tranquil lakeshores and, at campingrvbc.com, we have a list of choices, photos and campground information at our fingertips — ranging from national and provincial parks to properties that are privately operated. “Let’s take a camping trip down
memory lane,” Brent suggests when panning the options. “Lake Okanagan Provincial Park was a family favourite when I was growing up.” After checking this link, it’s easy to see why. The 98-hectare oasis, rimmed by a swim-safe beach, is nestled into a grove of pine. It’s divided into two campgrounds — the South, where sites snuggles together on a lakeshore jetty, and the North, with lakeviewing spots that terrace the hillside. Although there are no electrical or water hook-ups for our RV, there are hot showers and flush toilets. And the sites are spacious enough for our 28-foot fifth wheel. With a quick click to discovercamping.ca, our reservation is made and, less than a month later ,we’re living our Lake Okanagan dream. “This is the life,” Brent says from a lazy lounger.
Although seeking solace is certainly part of our learning goal, there’s an abundance of activity just steps from our RV door. Water-skiers and windsurfers join swimmers and fishing folk — and there’s also plenty of activity for all of us land-lovers. The two campgrounds are linked together by an interpretive trail and, along the way, we check out regional flora and fauna. Columbia and chocolate lily, flourish next to wildflowers, canopied by stately ponderosa pine. Ground squirrels scurry beneath the prolific groundcover and meadowlarks flicker while quail take flight above. Then there are the squigglers. As I read about the harmless gopher snakes, my feet go into river-dance mode. “Don’t fret,” Brent reassures. “They’re more afraid of you.” Even though I find this hard to believe, it doesn’t stop me from trekking on.

Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
