Crown wants Gaglardi fined $300,000

FINDING MISS DAISY TIM PETRUK

If dogs could talk, Daisy, a five-year-old boxer, would be barking up one hell of a story. Daisy and her owner, Leslie McBride, were staying at a cabin near Willowgrouse Lake, in Bonaparte Provincial Park 75 kilometres north of Kamloops, on Sept. 20. McBride said some other campers were running a chainsaw and Daisy became startled and took off. “I didn’t think she was that scared, but she was just gone,” McBride said. She looked for Daisy. She retraced their hike from their vehicle to the cabin. She scoured the area as much as she could. She called Daisy’s name. There was no sign of her.

Leslie McBride is happy to have Daisy back home after the boxer went missing and spent 16 days lost in the woods in Bonaparte Provincial Park.

An attempt by a “privileged family” to “run roughshod over the laws of Canada” should cost the millionaire owner of the NHL’s Dallas Stars and the WHL’s Kamloops Blazers — and the company he runs — $300,000, a judge has been told. Tom Gaglardi and Northland Properties were each convicted in August of two counts of harmful alteration of a fish habitat after extensive renovations at a Kamloops Lake vacation home in 2010 caused significant damage to 2,400 square metres of shoreline area. Gaglardi was not present in Kamloops provincial court on Friday, Oct. 10, as lawyers made sentencing submissions. TOM GAGLARDI: Crown prosOwner of Dallas Stars and ecutor Digby Kier said Kamloops Blazers was convicted of harmful Gaglardi’s approach to the renovations — a five- alteration of a fish habitat. bedroom, two-bathroom addition to an existing lakeside bungalow in Savona, known as Tom’s Shack, which also included extensive landscaping work, a 50-vehicle parking lot and the construction of a boat launch — was to build first and ask questions later. “It was, ‘Let’s go ahead and do the work and see if we get caught and then seek forgiveness,’” Kier said, noting neither Gaglardi nor Northland ever obtained a building permit for any of the renovation work.

GOOD SAMARITAN SETS TRAPS FOR GREAT IDEA From A1

McBride went home the next day, but returned to Willowgrouse to look for Daisy. She returned the next day. And the day after that. But, Daisy was nowhere to be seen. For two weeks, McBride, who works as a letter carrier for Canada Post, would trek up to Willowgrouse after work to search for her dog. Eventually, on the advice of Good Samaritan Alison Villeneuve, who had seen a poster McBride hung up in the area, she set up a live trap

with Daisy’s blanket and some wet dog food. Still, no sign of the dog. Then, on Monday, Oct. 6, McBride and a co-worker made the drive to Willowgrouse after getting off work at 9 a.m. “We had to check the trap because it had no water,” she said. “It was just something that had to be done daily. “I wasn’t even in looking-for-Daisy mode. It was just, ‘We need to check the trap.’” McBride hiked in to where the trap was set up — and there she was. “I looked around the

corner and I saw Daisy,” McBride said. “She was in the trap. I just could not believe it.” McBride said Daisy was in pretty good shape, considering the boxer had just spent 16 days fending for herself in the wild. She had a few bumps and bruises, and had lost 14 pounds, but was otherwise fine. “She was able to walk out,” McBride said, noting she put Daisy on a leash for the trek back to the truck. “We went straight to the vet and the vet said to feed her every couple hours and she’ll be fine.”

McBride said Daisy is still re-adjusting to life at home. “I think she’s really, really weak and kind of like, ‘What the hell happened to me?’” McBride said. “She’s very tired. She’s just eating and sleeping and that’s it.” McBride said she’s very thankful to the people who saw her posters and offered to help — especially Villeneuve. “She would text me every day for support and I can’t thank her enough,” McBride said. “I honestly don’t think I would have Daisy without her.”

She would text me “ every day for support

and I can’t thank her enough. I honestly don’t think I would have Daisy without her.

ANDREA KLASSEN STAFF REPORTER andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com

The list of candidates for Kamloops city council is a good deal longer after a flurry of last-minute filings in the final hours of the nomination period for the Nov. 15 municipal election. At the close of nominations at 4 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 10, there are 28 candidates vying for eight seats at the council table. Latecomers to the race are Reo Rocheleau, Jenny Green, Daphane Nelson, Bernadette Siracky, Alexandra Proctor, Glenn Hilke, Brad Harrison and former Kamloops city councillor Denis Walsh — who told KTW earlier the same week that he had no plans to mount a return to city hall. “I just had a flood of support come my way this week and I believe that we need a stronger council,” said Walsh. While he had originally discussed a run for mayor, Walsh said he doesn’t have the time to commit to the full-time position this election cycle. Several of the last-minute candidates nominated each other — Walsh’s name appears on the nomination papers for Harrison and Nelson and Nelson is a nominator for Hilke — but Walsh said voters shouldn’t take that as a sign there is a slate of candidates being formed. At least, not yet. “We’re all individuals and whether we end up getting together on some common

ground, that will be seen, probably after the weekend,” he said. “We’ll have to get together.” The mayor’s race, which had remained a two-man contest for much of the week as prospective challengers never materialized, now features four candidates: Incumbent Peter Milobar and North Shore resident Benjamin James are joined by newcomers Pierre Fillisetti and Dallas Paisley. Paisley, who entered the race in the final hours of the nomination period, is an Alberta native who’s worked as a lifeguard, ice maker and oilfield rigger. He said he would like his campaign to focus on improving and beautifying Kamloops. “I’d like to bring a little bit of elegancy to the city,” he said, noting he wants to see the city encourage the development of more high-end retail outlets on Victoria and Seymour streets and more beautification efforts on the North Shore. Filisetti — owner of Arbour Gardening and Landscaping, frequent newspaper letter writer and vocal opponent of the proposed Ajax copper and gold mine — said he entered the race to make sure Milobar faces a serious contender. He said he wants his campaign to focus on liveability issues. “Once we take care of our No. 1 priority, which is our health, our well-being, which is our No. 1 liveability issue, then we can talk about the economy as well,” he said.

The three Thompson-Nicola Regional District (TNRD) areas neighbouring the City of Kamloops will all feature election races next month. Nominations closed on Friday, Oct. 10, for the 10 electoral areas in the TNRD in advance of the Nov. 15 civic election. Area J, encompassing Cherry Creek and Savona, will see challenger Ronald McGivern run against veteran incumbent Ronaye Elliott. In area L, including part of

Pritchard eastward to Monte Creek, former director John Taylor will take a run at incumbent Ken Gillis. And in area P, former city mayor Mel Rothenburger will challenge incumbent John Sternig. There are three more election race in the rural areas, including in North Thompson, Blue River and Barriere outside the municipal limits. Four areas will see incumbents acclaimed.

‘FISH WERE COMPROMISED AND THEY STILL ARE’ CROWN WANTS MAX FINE; DEFENCE CALLS FOR ONEQUARTER AMOUNT From A1

“Unfortunately, in this case, it’s going to take 40 to 50 years for the area concerned to go back to the fish habitat it used to be,” Kier said. During his trial, Gaglardi attempted to pin the blame for the work on ex-Northland employee Jim Parks. Parks, however, testified he was just following orders — which ultimately came from Gaglardi. At trial, Parks testified he was at one point ordered to throw his computer hard drive “in the lake” once federal authorities began to investigate the renovation work. Park testified he was also asked to remove Northland’s logo from the site blueprint. Kier described the work, and the attempted

cover-up, as the “blatant, blatant, blatant” actions of a “privileged family.” “Really, it strikes to the very heart of what society expects of corporate citizens and private citizens who have done so well. This was a very massive, massive endeavour by the corporation and Tom Gaglardi to make this thing a showpiece on the lake,” Kier said. “They’re going to have 50 parking spots and sweeping views of the area — and nothing for the fish. The fish were compromised and they still are.” Kier said Kamloops Lake is a significant stop for juvenile salmon on their way from the Interior to the Pacific Ocean. It’s the last lake on the Thompson River system before flowing into the fast-moving

KTW FILE PHOTO Tom Gaglardi, father Bob Gaglardi and lawyer Rob Bruneau walk outside the Kamloops Law Courts during an appearance in January. While Tom Gaglardi was found guilty of harmful alteration of a fish habitat, his father was acquitted of the same charge. A sentencing date will be set on Oct. 23.

Fraser River, he noted, and is an important feeding stop for young salmon. “Both defendants were well aware they were trying to keep a low profile and, if they got caught, they were going to seek forgive-

ness,” Kier said. “That’s what you have today — them seeking forgiveness. “Show this corporation and Tom Gaglardi that they cannot ride roughshod over the laws of Canada and escape without anything being

done to them.” A $300,000 fine is the maximum allowed under Canada’s Federal Fisheries Act, based on when the offences took place. The maximum fine is now $1 million. Kier also asked for an

order that would have the fine go toward protecting Interior salmon. Court heard Gaglardi has spent $80,000 on remediation since 2010. Defence lawyer Rob Bruneau said a $300,000 fine is excessive given previous sentences for similar offences. He said Gaglardi’s wealth shouldn’t be a factor in deciding how much he should have to pay in the form of a fine. “Mr. Gaglardi should not be penalized for his financial set in life,” Bruneau said. “Just because we’re dealing with an extremely wealthy family doesn’t mean we should raise the fine.” Bruneau said Gaglardi has been “embarrassed” by the trial. “The press has been following this case,” Bruneau said.

“The embarrassment of Mr. Gaglardi in the conduct of this case is a factor your honour might consider on sentence. “Certainly, in the court of public opinion, he will continue to suffer because of these circumstances.” During the trial, Gaglardi often appeared unfazed by the proceedings playing out in front of him, at various times jotting down Dallas Stars line combinations in a notebook and attempting to hide the use of his iPhone from court sheriffs. Bruneau asked for a fine of between $50,000 and $75,000. Kamloops provincial court Judge Stephen Harrison reserved his decision on sentencing. Lawyers will meet on Oct. 23 to set a date for his decision.

BCTF, government begin court hearing today PRESIDENT OF KAMLOOPS UNION LOCAL EXPECTS MATTER TO GO TO SUPREME COURT OF CANADA DALE BASS

STAFF REPORTER

dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

The B.C. Teachers’ Federation (BCTF) and the provincial government are squaring off again today (Oct. 14) — but, this time, it will be lawyers sparring. For the next three days, the B.C. Court of Appeals will hear arguments from the provincial government about why a lower-court decision declaring teachers have the right to bargain class size and composition is wrong. David Komljenolvic, president of the Kamloops-Thompson Teachers’ Association, said he doesn’t expect the dispute between his union and the government to end at this level. Instead, he expects the dispute — sparked by Justice Susan Griffin’s ruling earlier this year that the BCTF

says requires a return to 2002 classroom composition and size rules, as well as the ratio of specialist teachers to teachers — will end up at the Supreme Court of Canada. “Despite recently negotiated terms between teachers and government on some additional funding to address class size and student support, that funding is a drop in a bucket to the support students actually need in schools today,” Komljenovic said. “With the new negotiated education fund contributing perhaps 22 to 25 teachers or specialists to the [Kamloops-Thompson school] system, the school board’s own figures suggest that more than 50 new teachers would be hired within this district should the B.C. Court of Appeals uphold the restoration of stripped contract

language,” he said. Class size and composition was pointed to by the BCTF as a key issue during the summer strike. The province asserts it has the right to legislate collective agreements that do not conflict with its fiscal policies, while the BCTF maintains — as Griffin ruled — teachers have the right to bargain their working conditions. “Unfortunately, the B.C. Liberal government has already

indicated the desire to appeal any success by teachers to the Supreme Court of Canada,” Komljenovic said. “It is clear that their priority isn’t about improving learning conditions for students in the classroom, but about spending tax dollars unnecessarily on legal fees and courts fighting consequences to actions they already accepted responsibility for.” Several schooldistrict superintendents, including former Kamloops-Thompson head Terry Sullivan, submitted affidavits for the government, pointing out they would have to hire what provincially would add up to hundreds of teachers and add millions of dollars to their education budgets if Griffin’s ruling is upheld. Sullivan said the school district would

have to hire 54 more teachers and add $4.6 million to its budget. The government’s case includes the argument it considers classsize formulas, such as those that existed

Final section of project to be tendered The province will tender the final section of a four-laning project on the TransCanada Highway from Kamloops through Hoffman’s Bluff this week. The B.C. Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure said the tender is expected to be awarded by the end of the year. Construction on the

3.1-kilometre of road will widen the highway from two lanes to four lanes through the notorious canyon beside the South Thompson River that has been the location of many fatalities over the past decades. Construction is slated to begin in spring next year with completion by end the end of 2016. Completion of the

No jail time stemming from fatal crash CREDIT/KTW

CAM FORTEMS STAFF REPORTER cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

Calling it a “truly exceptional case,” the Crown has decided against seeking a jail sentence for a Kamloops man who drove dangerously en route to meet an ambulance, killing his best friend in a crash. Sean Tomlin, 28, consumed six to seven beers at a stag party when he made the decision to drive Thompson Rivers University student Ben Kirkey to meet the ambulance in a rural area east of Kamloops on May 26, 2012. Kirkey suffered a serious shotgun wound to his lower arm following a skeet-shooting accident at Scuitto Lake at about 6 p.m. “It’s likely Mr. Kirkey would have lost his arm below his elbow, but it [wound] was not fatal,” Firestone told B.C. Supreme Court Justice Hope Hyslop on Friday, Oct. 10. “In a panic, Mr. Tomln made the fateful decision to get in the truck to drive Mr. Kirkey to meet the ambulance.” In return for a guilty plea to dangerous driving, the Crown dropped charges of dangerous driving causing death and impaired driving causing death. Both have mandatory jail terms. The Crown and defence made a joint submission, accepted by Hyslop, asking for

a 12-month conditional sentence, followed by a year of probation. Kaelen Taylor pleaded guilty last year to careless use of a firearm stemming from the shotgun accident that preceding the truck crash. Firestone said Taylor took one shot. Kirkey was loading the chucker that fired the projectiles. Taylor, who was not drinking, set the gun down, but accidentally pulled the gun’s second trigger, hitting Kirkey. “The decision [by Tomlin] to drive was not based on good judgement . . . There were other more seasoned drivers who hadn’t consumed alcohol and others who could have administered first aid,” Firestone said. Firestone said Tomlin was driving between 89 km/h and 95 km/h in an 80 km/h zone, on the wrong side of the road, when he lost control. Neither men were wearing seat belts and both were ejected from the truck. Kirkey’s parents made the decision to remove their son from life support the next day. Tomlin was hospitalized and received a brain injury, though few details were heard in court as to the extent. He underwent treatment with an occupational therapist and received counselling. Kirkey’s family was not in favour of pros-

ecution. A letter was submitted to court from Ben’s father, stating “Sean did what most friends would have done and a terrible accident resulted from the panic. “We have no desire to add to Sean’s burden. He needs to get on with his life.” Firestone said Tomlin was crushed by the death of his friend and does not need to be deterred by a jail sentence. She argued the details of the situation are so unique that it does not call for jail to deter others from the same action. Defence lawyer Ken Tessovitch said his client is a hardworking citizen who has been employed in jobs including retail and construction. He is currently employed by a concrete firm. “Mr. Tomlin feels terrible about what occurred,” Tessovitch said. “He’s remorseful beyond belief.” Under the sentence imposed by Hyslop, Tomlin will spend the first six months of his sentence under house arrest. Terms during his conditional sentence and probation include that he not drink alcohol. He also received a two-year driving ban. Tomlin has no criminal record. His driving record includes a penalty for driving without due care and attention in 2005. Friends of Kirkey have an annual golf tournament that contributes to charities chosen by his family.

A SALUTE TO THOSE RUNNING For most of the nomination period, it appeared as though Kamloops voters would be going to the polls in November with fewer choices on the ballot that in years past. However, a flurry of nomination papers arrived at city hall before the 4 p.m. deadline on Friday, Oct. 10, with the list of candidates surpassing that in the 2011 municipal election. On Nov. 15, voters will chose from four mayoral candidates, 28 city council candidates and 15 board of education candidates. There is but one mayor’s chair, eight city council seats and five board of education spots up for grabs so, on Nov. 16, 47 people will awake, of which 14 will be a bit happier than the rest. Running for office at the municipal level takes courage, determination and sacrifice. It draws people from all walks of life whose primary reason for entering a contest that will severely disrupt their lives is to try to make the community — and the people within in — better. So, with nominations closed and the final slate of candidates confirmed, allow us to salute those who have let their names stand: Benjamin James, Pierre Filisetti, Peter Milobar, Dallas Paisley, Nancy Bepple, Donovan Cavers, Ken Christian, Nelly Dever, Bob Dieno, Dieter Dudy, Annette Glover, Jenny Green, Brad Harrison, Tanja Hasler, Glenn Hilke, Peter Kerek, Tina Lange, Dustin Mcintyre, Andrew Miller, Daphane Nelson, Mike O’Reilly, Andy Philpot, Cheryl Phippen, Alexandra Proctor, Reo Rocheleau, Peter Sharp, Arjun Singh, Bernadette Siracky, Marg Spina, Glen Thompson, Pat Wallace, Denis Walsh, Christy Campbell, Michael Carroll, Bowen Cooluris, Joan Cowden, Colleen Deveyrac, Adam Jensen, Kathleen Karpuk, Don Kitt, Colin Madland, Barbara Morin, Aaron Shufletoski, Joe Small, Meghan Wade, Christine Watson, Gerald Watson, Ronaye Elliott, Ronald McGivern, Mel Rothenburger, John Sternig, Ken Gillis, John Taylor and the rest in B.C. who have done their civic duty.

Physician, heal thy hands

n Luke 4:23, it is written: “Physician, heal thyself.” In British Columbia in 2014, the mantra remains: “Physicians, clean yourselves — and begin by washing your damn hands.” Why? Because the difference between washing your hands and ignoring the soap and water can truly be a matter of life and death. The latest Hand Cleaning Compliance Audit has been released by the Provincial Infection Control Network of B.C. (a program of the Provincial Health Services Authority), which sends trained auditors into hospitals across the province to see who is and who is not washing their hands. And, while the provincial overall hand-cleaning compliance rate rose to 77 per cent in the 2013-2014 fiscal year — an improvement from a 70 percent rate recorded in the 20112012 fiscal year — the group that most continues to wash its hands of the need to wash its hands is the province’s doctors. As has been the case with all the audits year after year, doctors sit at the bottom of the rankings when it comes to audited hand-washing, with a rate of only 64 per cent in the latest audit. While it might be wise to decline to shake the doc’s hand the next time one is at you bedside, nurses once again proved to be the most responsible group in hospitals, clocking in at a 79 per cent handcleaning compliance rate. In fact, the worst rate

CHRISTOPHER FOULDS

Newsroom

MUSINGS posted by nurses (73 per cent in 2011-2012) is better than the best rate posted by doctors (this year’s 64 per cent). Workers in clinical-support services (such as occupational therapists, psychologists, radiologists and paramedics) had a 75 per cent hand-cleaning compliance rate, while a group dubbed “other” (including housekeeping, security and administrative workers) registered a 69 per cent compliance rate. Of the province’s five health regions, the Interior Health Authority (IHA) rated middle of the pack, at 75 per cent, which is a huge improvement from 2011-2012, when the IHA posted a 58 per centre compliance rate. The Fraser Health Authority is at the top, at 79 per cent, while the Vancouver Island Health Authority is at the bottom, at 71 per cent. Among hospitals in the IHA, Royal Inland landed right about in the middle, with a compliance rate of 74 per cent. But, back to the reason for these audits, which began in 2010 with the formation of a

working group when compliance rates were below 50 per cent. Again, why wash hands? The introduction to the audit report tells us why, in the first sentences: “Health care-associated infections are one of the most frequent and severe complications among hospitalized patients and the fourth-leading cause of death in Canada. Transmission of health care-associated pathogens most often occurs via the contaminated hands of healthcare providers.” And here we have almost four in every 10 doctors noted in provincewide audits not doing something as basic as adding soap and water to their hands while in hospitals. The need to wash hands with plain soap and water continues to be hammered home in kindergarten classes and via signs in school hallways, restaurant washrooms and everywhere in between, yet some of those entrusted with the care of the sick, in facilities loaded with disease, simply refuse to do something so simple that can prevent so much misery. With C. diff and Norovirus and all manner of horrible sicknesses able to jump from person to person via five fingers and a palm, we should all be in a lather about the disappointing doctor numbers. And, so should the doctors — before and after every patient they see. editor@kamloopsthisweek.com Twitter: @ChrisJFoulds

YOUR OPINION LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

WEARING HEAD SCARF IN SOLIDARITY WITH GIRL Editor: Re: (‘Scarf issue comes to a head at Lloyd George elementary,’ Oct. 10): It is with dismay as I read the statements verbalized by principal Alain Blais regarding the wearing of Jaime Mitchell’s head scarves. He stated he is preparing children to enter the workforce, where scarves or headgear are not worn. As a female equipment operator in a very sought-after career, I take offence to his opinion, which is by no means factual. I fear for all of our children in today’s school system, who are being led by per-

sonal opinion that is sorely misguided Not only is a scarf a hair accessory — as are elastic bands and clips, which show a person’s individuality and style — but it can also prevent contaminants from entering a scalp and errant strands of hair from impeding vision in the workforce. Many of my female co-workers, who also wear scarves for the same reasons I do, totally support Jaime in her fight for the right to accessorize as she does, as it does not cover her facial features. Angelina Cook Highland Valley Copper employee Kamloops

My daughter has plenty of spaghetti-strap dresses that she “likes to wear” to “express herself,” but I tell her she cannot wear them to school. Full stop. This is not a human-rights issue. However, there are many human-rights violations occurring every day in Canada and around the world. We should focus our energy on those more newsworthy causes. Anise Barton Kamloops Editor: How ridiculous is this? I’m not surprised, however. Those entrusted with authority in society can be very myopic and concerned mainly with protecting their job first and saving the body portion they can be found sitting on most of the day on. The principal insists on blindly enforcing a rule only because it exists, ignoring whether it is a good rule, its original intent and purpose, practical application and situational factors.

Highland Valley Copper employee Angelina Cook (left) stands by Jaime Mitchell and mom, Erin, as they fight for the right to wear headscarves to school.

Students following this “leader’s” example would learn that, when faced with life situations requiring thoughtful examination, they should close eyes and ears, not question why, not worry about the reasons and results when enforcing rules on others. Change and new information toward better policy and the treatment of others should be resisted. Let blanket laws that serve only a small minority rob us of individuality and choice. Learn to be good sheep and chew what is fed to you quietly without question. What if a little girl undergoing chemotherapy felt a head covering would help her feel at ease at school? Should we force her to remove it because it is not being worn for religious reasons? Or should we examine the reality of a situation and show compassion, understanding, tolerance and flexibility toward rules and make efforts toward the comfortable learning environment of all our students.

A selection of comments on KTW stories, culled online RE: STORY: CROWN CALLS FOR TOM GAGLARDI TO BE FINED $300,000 FOR ALTERING FISH HABITAT:

RULES NEED TO BE FOLLOWED, BUT ALSO QUESTIONED Editor: Re: (‘Scarf issue comes to a head at Lloyd George elementary,’ Oct. 10): I actually heard about this issue because my father-in-law in Nova Scotia read about it in his local newspaper! I find it very sad that this makes national news when there are much more pressing issues locally, nationally and internationally. I have children in grades 2 and 3 at Lloyd George elementary and I firmly believe schools should have dress codes. Children need to understand there are rules in the world that need to be followed and that they cannot follow their every whim. When they get a job, they will need to dress a certain way, just as I do every day I go to work. I help train medical students at Royal Inland Hospital and they are told they need to dress up to a certain standard when seeing patients. Children should know school for them is like going to work — and that they need to follow rules. One of our school’s rules is a ban on spaghetti straps in hot weather for girls.

“This is another case of someone doing something illegal and then it gets worse for them when they get caught covering it up. Good work by the fish cops for having the stamina to keep working until they had enough evidence to make the charge stick.” — posted by Matrix “Nothing wrong with that fine at all. He can well afford it. All of the work done without a building permit should also have to be removed. — posted by Grouchy1 “Tom Gaglardi and his family have done more for our province and country than this government has or ever will do for us, putting thousands to work at his hotels and restaurants so we can provide for our families! So he dumped some rocks in the lake. Get over it, bleeding hearts! — posted by Stan

SEASONED STUFFED TURKEY BREAST

She spent a large part of her life as a tireless volunteer in our community and gave the best she had while being healthy enough to do it. The problem, as I explained to Kamloops Home Hardware Building Center and the Homeowners Helping Homeowners program, was that Bernadette would never dream to ask our community for anything. I had noted that, as I drove by her home over the years, her needed wheelchair ramp to enter her home presented was riddled with wood-rotted rails, and some broken. The main platform for her walker was heaved, with weakened plywood. It certainly looked like medically challenged Bernadette was not willing to

ask our community for help. Well, I took pen to hand and contacted Kamloops Home Hardware Building Center and the Homeowners Helping Homeowners program. It took a while, but the response was great and was a very favourable one indeed. Today, that old and brokendown wheelchair ramp has been replaced with a safe and newly constructed one. A big thanks goes out to the team at Kamloops Home Hardware Building Center that helped our Bernadette. Who knew that taking a pen to paper could produce this brand of kindness locally for another? Les Evens Kamloops

Editor: Regarding boat access on Paul Lake: When I was a high school-aged young man and the public access was on the south side of the lake, we, as a family, could launch our boat on weekends and water ski and enjoy the lake. After the new campground was built, boat access for the public

with ski boats, etc. was cut off. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve read lately there was only one person who complained and access for non-residents with larger boats was denied. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know who the complainant was, but he must have had the ear of someone high up in the chain of command. For 20 years, a pub-

lic lake has been used as if it was a private waterway for a few hundred people. This is completely wrong and access should be restored for non-residents of the lake. The boat launch as it is now has made it very difficult to launch a cartop boat for seniors and people who may not be in top physical shape.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve written to the provincial parks department several times about the launch and nothing ever gets done to fix it. I guess I need to find the guy who is high up in the chain of command to right the wrong that was committed 20 or more years ago. Noel Gopsill Kamloops

Editor: Thanks to Rick Kurzac, owner of Kamloops Home Hardware Building Center, and the Homeowners Helping Homeowners program. I am the owner of Superior Roofing Ltd. and I wrote the good folks at Kamloops Home Hardware Building Center to see if they could help a Kamloops homeowner named Bernadette Beesley, who lives on the North Shore. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve known Bernadette as a tireless volunteer with the Kamloops International Ice Hockey Tournament and as a tireless host to many other volunteer and community efforts. Bernadette is a medically retired nurse and daughter of the late Dr. Beesley, also of Kamloops.

Editor: I wonder if the proposed increase in parking fees will be allocated to creating another roundabout on Nicola Street? Even better ,maybe the City of Kamloops needs to build another archway into Riverside Park. Three is not quite enough. I wonder if members of our

esteemed city council have ever run a business? They should concentrate on running the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s business and not on spending lavish amounts of money on projects for their legacy. Come on â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a round-about for $80,000 on Nicola? What astrophysicist came up with that plan?

I hope there is a huge shake-up on council in the Nov. 15 civic election and its composition is made up of prudent business people interested in running the city with the taxpayersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; hard-earned money in mind. Bill Gallis Kamloops

Nicola Street/12th Street Mini-Roundabout Now Open The new mini-roundabout at the intersection of Nicola Street and 12th Street is now in operation. Similar to a regular roundabout, the mini-roundabout is designed to help motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians move safely and efficiently through the intersection. Mini-roundabouts are usually located in residential areas and operate in the same manner as regular roundabouts. • Slow down as you approach the intersection • Watch for and stop for crossing pedestrians • When entering the intersection, yield to other motorists or cyclists already travelling around the roundabout • Proceed in a counter-clockwise direction

CAM FORTEMS STAFF REPORTER cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

A member of a ranching family with roots going back a century has been reappointed to the new regional agricultural land commission’s Interior panel. Lucille Dempsey, part of the family that operates Frolek Cattle Co., is one of three members of the Interior panel, along with Gordon Gillette and Richard Mumford, both Cariboo agriculturalists. The panels were named last week by Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick. A return to regional panels first instituted under the Gordon Campbell government and later abandoned is part

of controversial change to the Agricultural Land Reserve by the current Liberal government under Premier Christy Clark. Starting five years ago, Dempsey served under the Interior regional panel, moved to the provincewide board along with the changes and is now back on the regional panel. “You have to follow Victoria’s dictates and we’ll make it work,” she said. “We’ve been there before.” Those changes include a two-zone ALR, with more opportunity for development on farmland in parts of the province, including the Thompson Valley, Central Interior and North. Important or locally controversial decisions can be kicked

upstairs to the Agricultural Land Commission’s executive committee. \ That call to move it to a higher level can be made by regional panels or by the commission’s director. “I think the public has spoken. They want to see agricultural land protected,” Dempsey said. “I think more and more people are very cognizant of where their food comes from.” Dempsey said it’s too early to speculate about the impact of the changes on the commission and farmland. She said the biggest question mark is the regulations that have yet to come down to accompany the legislative changes.

Kamloops projects seek funds Two Kamloops projects are taking part in the annual Aviva Community Fund competition The Centre for Seniors Information is seeking funding in the $50,000 to $100,000 level from the challenge, money it would use to create a largescale community kitchen. The centre in Brocklehurst envisions a program that will offer a food subsidy to those on low-fixed incomes and create a location where people can share and learn skills, food preparation

and security and basic interpersonal skills. The program could also provide a place for people to go who otherwise would spend their days in isolation. The Interior CarShare Co-operative is campaigning in the less-than-$50,000 category with its project to create a 24-hour fleet of vehicles to be rented on a short-term basis — going to the grocery store, visiting friends or other quick jaunts. The vehicles would be owned by co-operative members, who would share them to help keep transporta-

Ajax’s open pit to act as emergency-retention area? CAM FORTEMS STAFF REPORTER cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

KGHM-Ajax is looking at using its proposed open pit as a emergency-retention area in case of a tailings dam breach, a company official said. The Polish mining company cautioned, however, an option to use Ajax’s pit — which would be actively mined around the clock — as a capture area in case of a breach is only “an idea” being researched at this stage and hasn’t received any approvals by senior management. Under its current configuration, the tailings pond that would be created over what is Goose Lake today would garner a risk rating of “very high” under a five-step scale used by the province to measure potential impact on property, the environment and human life. The highest — extreme — in this region is reserved for Highland Valley Copper near Logan Lake. Research on tailings configu-

rations comes in the wake of the Mount Polley dam breach in the Cariboo that poured millions of litres of contaminated water into Quesnel Lake. During a mine tour last week, public-relations official Robin Bartlett said diverting the tailings pond — which gradually grows larger as the mine expands over two decades — in case of an emergency breach is one of the options being studied. The company has previously revealed it is looking at a secondary area for diversion in case of a breach that would otherwise pour into Peterson Creek and eventually into Kamloops and the South Thompson River. KGHM officials invited reporters on its public tour to show its revised mine plan, which was revealed this past spring. That plan would move all facilities south of the current Ajax pit, which would be expanded. Waste-rock areas and the tailings pond are moved south, away from Kamloops.

Kym Behrs, another company public-relations official who narrates the tours twice a week, said a major feature of the revised plan talked about on the tour is diversion of Peterson Creek at the headwaters of Jacko Lake. The company wants to pipe water from the lake, drying up a section of the current creek beside the pit, and divert it downstream to another small reservoir, where it would continue its normal course into Kamloops. Jacko Lake is a man-made irrigation reservoir popular for angling ,while Peterson Creek is heavily used for irrigation and the aquifer below it for potable water. From near the high point of land, the only spot where guests are allowed to emerge from the van during the tour, Behrns contrasted today’s vista with a poster that includes proposed operations, waste-rock areas and the tailings pond. The tours are scheduled Thursdays and Saturdays until some time in November.

Wong goes long, lifts Cards to thrilling win R.B. FALLSTROM

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ST. LOUIS — Kolten Wong ended Game 2 of the NL Championship Series with a big swing for the St. Louis Cardinals. Now, they can only hope the season isn’t over for Yadier Molina. Wong hit a leadoff home run in the bottom of the ninth inning and the resilient Cardinals beat the San Francisco Giants 5-4 on Sunday, Oct. 12, night, tying the best-of-seven series at one game apiece with their latest post-season power show. Game 3 gets underway today (Oct. 14) at 1:07 p.m. in San Francisco, with John Lackey going for St. Louis and Tim Hudson starting for the Giants. The Cardinals came back on Sunday after losing Molina to a strained oblique muscle in the sixth inning. The All-Star catcher was getting further tests and manager Mike Matheny said it “didn’t look real good.’’ “We’ll wait and see and right now we’ll just go ahead and keep celebrating a very tough, hardfought win. I am real proud at how these guys kept coming,’’ Matheny said. St. Louis didn’t stay down too long, getting a home run each of the final three innings in a back-and-forth game. “It was tough to see our backstop go down like that,’’ Matt Adams said. “We just kept grinding it the rest of the game.’’ Rookie pinch-hitter Oscar Taveras connected in the seventh to tie it and Adams homered in the eighth for a 4-3 lead. San Francisco tied it in the ninth on a wild pitch by closer Trevor Rosenthal. St. Louis, last in the NL with 105 home runs during the regular season, has hit 11 homers in six playoff games — seven in the seventh inning or later. Earlier, Matt Carpenter connected for the fourth time this post-season. “It kind of got overshadowed there at the end, but man that was an exciting game,’’ Carpenter said. “That was a must-win for us, to do that in that fashion especially after giving up the lead in the ninth.’’ After the Giants tied it, Wong lined a pitch from Sergio Romo for his second big home run this post-season. The rookie’s seventh-inning drive was the decisive blow in Game 3 of the NL Division Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. It was a rare post-season failure for the reliable

San Francisco bullpen. “They are the reason we’re in this situation, and you give (the Cardinals) credit,’’ manager Bruce Bochy said. “They threw out some good at-bats and we made a couple of mistakes and they took advantage of them.’’ The Giants made it 4-4 when pinch-runner Matt Duffy dashed home from second base on a two-out wild pitch in the ninth. San Francisco wound up losing for just the second time in its last 14 post-season games. Seth Maness retired Pablo Sandoval on a comebacker with the bases loaded to end the top of the ninth and got the win. Maness came on after Rosenthal couldn’t hold a one-run lead. Rosenthal’s pitch bounced off the glove off backup catcher Tony Cruz and Duffy, running on a full count, never broke stride and slid home with the tying run. Adams homered off Hunter Strickland. Blanco’s fourth post-season hit in 31 at-bats put the Giants up 3-2 in the seventh, but Taveras re-tied it in the bottom half with a homer off Jean Machi just inside the right-field foul pole. Carpenter hit a solo shot off Jake Peavy in the third. Randal Grichuk singled with the bases loaded in the fourth to make it 2-0. Peavy was taken out for a pinch hitter in the fifth and the Giants scored a run off Lance Lynn, then Hunter Pence’s single tied it in the sixth.

Lions roast Redblacks MONTE STEWART

THE CANADIAN PRESS

VANCOUVER — Kevin Glenn completed three touchdown passes, including one for 60 yards to Ernest Jackson, as the B.C. Lions hammered the Ottawa Redblacks 41-3 in CFL action on Saturday, Oct. 11. The Lions ended a three-game losing streak while improving to 8-7. The Redblacks fell to 2-12 as they remained winless on the road. Both teams were looking to improve on a dismal Sept. 5 meeting in Ottawa, where the Lions prevailed 7-5 in the lowest-scoring CFL game in 35 years. B.C. responded Saturday with more than 500 yards in net offence. Glenn completed 20 of 27 passes for 345 yards while his Redblacks counterpart Henry Burris was good on 12 of 21 passes for only 138 yards. B.C. receiver Emmanuel Arceneaux was a late scratch due to an ankle injury. Levasier Tuinei proved to be a

capable replacement as he caught a touchdown pass in his CFL debut. Glenn was sidelined briefly with a hand injury while completing a 40-yard pass to Jackson on the first play from scrimmage. B.C. backup quarterback John Beck came in and led the Lions on a scoring drive which culminated with Paul McCallum’s 30-yard field goal. Glenn returned on the next series, and the Lions increased their lead in the second quarter as receiver Shawn Gore ran the ball in for a one-yard touchdown. The Redblacks got on the scoreboard at 11:16 of the second quarter on Brett Maher’s 34-yard field goal. But, just over a minute later, Glenn connected on the 60-yard TD with Jackson along the sidelines, staking the Lions to a 17-3 halftime lead. Early in the third

quarter, Glenn threw a 10-yard touchdown pass to Tuinei. The pass resembled a baseball pop fly as an Ottawa defender tipped the ball up right after Glenn let it go. But Tuinei came back to the ball like an outfielder. McCallum increased B.C.’s advantage to 27-3 with another 30-yard field goal, at 9:50 of the third quarter. In the process, McCallum moved into second place all-time in CFL scoring, surpassing former Calgary and B.C. kicker Mark McLoughlin’s 2,994 points. With about three minutes gone in the fourth quarter, Glenn completed a three-yard pass to running back Keola Antolin for his first CFL touchdown. Beck later padded B.C.’s lead with a one-yard TD plunge. Antolin finished with 147 rushing yards and 45 on catches for 192 in all. Jackson caught eight passes for 195 yards. The Leos are next in action on Oct. 25, when they travel to Winnipeg to play the Blue Bombers.

Miller there when it counts for Canucks JOSHUA CLIPPERTON

THE CANADIAN PRESS

VANCOUVER — Ryan Miller’s home debut with the Vancouver Canucks didn’t quite go according to plan, but he came up big when it counted most. The veteran netminder shook off a couple suspect goals, making big saves in the third period and overtime before stopping all three attempts in the shootout on Saturday, Oct. 11, as the Canucks downed the Edmonton Oilers 5-4. Signed to a freeagent deal in the off-season to provide a calm influence in the Vancouver crease after years of goaltending controversy, Miller battled to keep his team in the game after going down 4-2 midway through the second period. “It’s a nice way to finish. The boys

worked real hard and bailed me out,’’ Miller said. “It’s going to take all different ways this year so it’s good to see they all stuck together and weren’t phased by a couple tough goals. “It wasn’t how I envisioned it going, but I’m happy to get a win and to contribute.’’ Chris Higgins beat Viktor Fasth with a quick shot in the third round of the shootout before Miller stopped Benoit Pouliot on Edmonton’s final chance to send the fans at Rogers Arena home happy. “That was the loudest I’ve heard the

City of Kamloops

crowd in quite some time,’’ said Higgins. “It was a fun game to play in. They were rocking tonight and we fed off it in the second and third especially.’’ Miller was disappointed by goals in the second period from Nail Yakupov and Jesse Joensuu, but was grateful his teammates gave him a chance to redeem himself. “You end up tied late in a game, it doesn’t matter how you get there,’’ said Miller, who finished with 25 saves. “You’ve got to contribute and I thought the boys were skating well all night. I had to hang in there and make the adjustments and just not let the first and second period linger too long in my head.’’ Henrik Sedin and Radim Vrbata each had a goal and an assist in regulation for Vancouver (2-0-0),

power play. “He made a couple stops real late and the shootout, for sure was awesome,’’ said Canucks head coach Willie Desjardins, who also made his home debut. “ “He’s a good goaltender. That’s what we expect from him. There might be some jitters opening day, but he was real good when we needed him.’’ The teams traded chances in an exciting overtime, with the Canucks outshooting the Oilers 41-29 overall after Edmonton held a 10-5 edge after 20 minutes. “I really liked Viktor’s game,’’ said Oilers head coach Dallas Eakins. “There was a couple crazy ones that bounced on the way, but he was really solid and kept us in it, especially in overtime.’’ “It’s tough to lose a game like that, espe-

Daniel Sedin added three assists for Vancouver, which registered a 4-2 victory in Calgary on Wednesday, Oct. 8, to open its schedule. Mark Arcobello had a goal and an assist for Edmonton (0-1-1), while Brad Hunt also scored. Fasth made 37 saves through 65 minutes, and Teddy Purcell and David Perron each picked up two assists. The Canucks trailed 4-3 after two periods, but tied the game on the power play at 7:06 when Vey beat Fasth through the five-hole for his first NHL goal. Miller made a big save off Edmonton forward Taylor Hall with about nine minutes to go in regulation to keep things tied and was called upon again during a late Oilers’

Be Bear Smart Haunted Tales of Kamloops’ Past

Bears and people come into conflict when our garbage is easy to access and other attractants are poorly managed. Properly storing and securing garbage and other bear attractants is a proven method for discouraging bears and preventing problems in your neighbourhood. Bear Prevention Tips • Freeze pungent waste and store garbage inside until pick up. • Rinse recyclables • Pick fruit daily as it ripens or before it ripens if you don't intend to use it • Do not put meat, oils, dairy or un-rinsed eggshells or cooked foods into the compost bin • Turn your compost regularly and cover with leaves or soil to help decrease odours Bear Bylaw Residents are reminded not to place their solid waste containers out before 4 am on collection day between April 1st and November 30th and to not accumulate or improperly store bear attractants. Violators are subject to a $100 fine. To report an aggressive or habituated bear, call the RAPP line at 1-877-952-7277. Check out the new bear sightings map at: wildsafebc.com

I am a thousand winds that blow; I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain; I am the gentle autumn rain.

ROSS EDEN December 13, 1919 - October 5, 2014 With his family by his side Ross Beatty Eden passed away on October 5, 2014, just short of his 95th birthday. Ross was born to Stan and Sadie Eden of Watch Lake, BC on December 13, 1919 in Ashcroft, BC. In 1920 when Ross was one year old they moved from the one room cabin at the head of Watch Lake to the house his dad helped build. At the early age of twelve Ross started learning how to break colts and work horses. Ross joined the army at the age of 21 and was deployed for duty in the fall of 1943. When World War II ended in 1945 Ross returned to Canada but not before marrying Jean Leggett on July 4, 1945 in Rutherglen, Scotland. Ross & Jean lived in various locations in the Cariboo until 1963 when they moved their family to Monte Creek where Ross began his career as Ranch Foreman for the Bostock Ranch, then for Wayne & Valene Everett when the ranch ownership changed. Ross was well respected in the ranching industry. He had great knowledge of cattle and all aspects of the ranch operation. After retiring from ranching in the early 80’s Ross worked as a Brand Inspector for the Provincial Government and then worked at the BC Livestock Co-op. Ross was also a 4-H Leader and made sure all his children had the opportunity to become involved in the 4-H program. Ross was predeceased by his wife and best friend Jean in 2003 after 58 years of marriage. He will be sadly missed by his two sons, Tom (Lois) Eden, Midway, Don (Deb) Eden, Clinton and his three daughters, Betty Manuel (Rick Hook) Louis Creek, Barb (Joe) DeLeeuw, Knutsford and Helen (Lael) Robillard of Kamloops.

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.”

If any luxury carmaker is on a roll, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cadillac. Proof of this is the 2015 ATS compact Coupe that equals or exceeds its main German competitors for the first time. Like the Germans, Cadillac is moving down market from primarily large premium sedans in search of great sales volumes and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s working. Cadillac sales have never been better. The ATS Sedan alone saw a 21 per cent increase last year over the year before. Building on this Cadillac announced last month the brand will be spun off as an autonomous marketing entity from the rest of GM. The game plan centres on Cadillacâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s edgy styling, world-class ride and handling

wood, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wood. The aluminum is the real thing and the same goes for the carbon fibre.

AUTO MARKET

New coupe is harbinger of Cadillacs to come From page A21

There is a six-speed manual available but only about five per cent of buyers are expected to choose it. The manual can be had with the 2.0-litre, but the V6 only comes in automatic. Every ATS Coupe is offered in rear-wheel-drive (RWD) or all-wheel-drive (AWD). Fuel numbers for the 2.0-litre are 11.1/7.9L/100 km city/highway with the V6 at 12.8/8.4L/100 km. Acceleration times from 0-60 mph are 5.6 seconds and 5.5 seconds respectively. With similar power and performance you’d think EN

Cadillac focused on elevating its luxury status the V6 at $2,200 more than the 2.0-litre would make the 3.6-litre the moot choice being slightly thirstier to boot. But the V6 runs on regular, while premium is recommended for the turbo. Ergo, the less costly fuel over the long run could eventually offset the extra money for the V6. It’s one of those “six of one….” kind of things. There are four trim levels. With the RWD/AWD choice it makes for eight models ranging in price from $41,240 for the entry

RWD up to $52,655 for the fully optioned AWD not including a $1,800 shipping fee. Using a patented rotor coating, the Brembos have four pistons and really haul the car down from speed but with very positive modulation. Adding to all this is the available performance suspension system that starts with GM Magnetic Ride Control that “reads” the road 1,000 times per second. It is the most reactive suspension system in the

world and is so good that Ferrari uses it. Along with this is a limited slip rear differential that adds to greater lateral stability especially in cornering. The electric steering is the best ZF makes and you feel this in just a few miles. Precise, almost surgical, in operation, it also has “feel” which is often numb or non-existent in some electric systems. Because I arrived late after coming from another event, it happened I got a 3.6-litre RWD model

in white with a wonderful amber leather interior and carbon fibre trim with a thread of color that matched the seats and it was stunning to behold. Arriving late also resulted in the bonus of heading off to Prince Edward County from Pearson Airport by myself. I know “The County” quite well and where all the “good” roads are and, believe me, I used almost every one. The tight body and stiff, but not harsh, suspension demands to be used.

No matter how hard I pushed, response and reaction remained the same. In this car, the only way you could reach the limit would be on the track is at full race speed. The new ATS Coupe is the harbinger of more Cadillacs to come. There will be a roadpounding ATS-V model next and Cadillac has already announced an ultra premium sedan as its new flagship. Cadillac is very focused on elevating its place as a world-class luxury manufacturer and the 2015 ATS Coupe is well on the road to that destination.

NATIONAL NEWS

Ebola vaccine to start clinical trials in healthy humans THE CANADIAN PRESS

TORONTO — An experimental Canadian-made Ebola vaccine began clinical trials yesterday (Oct. 13) in what officials are calling a promising development in the fight against the deadly disease. The vaccine will be tested on healthy individuals to see how well it works, whether there are side effects and

what the proper dosage is, Health Minister Rona Ambrose said in a news conference. “The Canadian vaccine provides great hope and promise because it has shown to be 100 per cent effective in preventing the spread of the Ebola virus when tested on animals,’’ she said. If it proves safe and effective in humans, the vaccine could help stop the devastating outbreak that has

killed thousands of people in west Africa, she said. Studies in primates have shown this vaccine works in primates both to prevent infection when given before exposure and to increase survival chances when given quickly after exposure. A small U.S. company called NewLink Genetics holds the licence for the vaccine and will be arranging the trials, to be

conducted in a lab in Silver Spring, Md. Ambrose said the results are expected in December, with the vaccine to be deployed shortly after. NewLink said earlier this month that at least five clinical trials involving the vaccine, known as VSV-EBOV, would soon be under way in the United States, Germany, Switzerland and in an unnamed African country which is not

Report: Hogs abused in Alberta THE CANADIAN PRESS

OTTAWA — An animalrights group is urging the federal government to swiftly update transportation regulations after allegations of abuse at a hog facility in Red Deer. Mercy for Animals Canada released a video taken at the Western Hog Exchange

facility that shows hogs being kicked and struck with what appears to be a club. The organization said the video was taken undercover and it also shows some of the animals limping and others crammed into a corral. Alberta’s Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is looking into the alle-

gations and the facility has also launched an independent investigation with third-party experts in animal care and transportation. However, Mercy for Animals said only the federal government can ensure the improved treatment for farm animals in the future by updating existing regulations.

The group wants to see stricter limits on transportation times, better conditions for animals in transit and clearer definitions on what it means for an animal to be not fit for transport. The federal government said earlier this year new regulations were under review.

GHOSTS OF LIBYA SET TO HAUNT? OTTAWA — The ghosts of Canada’s last air war are likely to haunt its participation in the new campaign against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). The NATO-led mission to oust Libyan dictator Moammar Gadhafi three years ago is in some ways very similar to the deployment that will unfold over the next few weeks in the Persian Gulf. But, it is what followed that is already on the minds of both the military and observers: Investigations in the aftermath of the Libyan cam-

paign into whether NATO bombs had caused civilian casualties. The spectre of wayward air strikes over Iraq and Syria is already part of the discussion this time around. A spokeswoman for Defence Minister Rob Nicholson said Canadian commanders will take their day-to-day tactical direction from the coalition in terms of what targets to hit. But, Johanna Quinney added, “the final decision to participate in missions will be retained by Canada.’’ — The Canadian Press

DAVE EAGLES/KTW Mary Dunsdon has spent weeks cleaning out her old farm building after her friend died and left her with all he had been collecting for the past five years.

HOARDING: ‘IT’S A SICKNESS’ He just “couldn’t let anything go.

”

VEHICLES, TOOLBOXES, NEWSPAPERS, TOILETS, RAGS, BATTERIES, TVS, GARBAGE AND MORE LEFT BEHIND

JESSICA WALLACE STAFF REPORTER jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com

ary Dunsdon once asked her friend to haul away her old washing machine. Two years later, she isn’t all that surprised to find it among excess “junk” and “treasures” he left behind for her to clean up after his death. “I should have known,” Dunsdon said.

The 71-year-old Kamloops woman rents out storage space at her farm on Dairy Road. She has had plenty of room to spare since her ginseng farm closed in 2009, though she still uses the property for other farming purposes and as an alternative-medicine business. She said her friend, a 71-year-old Kamloops man whose name she withheld out of respect, began renting storage space from her five years ago. At first, his belongings fit inside one bay of her old building, among the former drying racks of

the old ginseng-processing facility. Then, he needed two bays. Then, three. Dunsdon later noticed his things popping up outside of his designated storage area — on and around her property. “Then, in December, he started sneaking stuff into my dome [shed],” Dunsdon said. She laughed it off at first — after all, he was paying her to store it all. But, she’s changed her stance since he died in July and has since had to sort through all he left behind. “It’s a sickness,” she said. She’s carved a narrow path out of the clutter.

HOME SHOW

TWO SHOWS UNDER ONE ROOF AT ISC

KAMLOOPS HOME SHOW JOINS FORCES WITH LIFE  55+ THIS WEEKEND For years, the Kamloops Fall Home Show has been a staple of autumn at Interior Savings Centre. Right around this time each year, as the leaves change colour and twirl to the ground, Kamloops homeowners make their way to the downtown arena to get inspired to renovate, decorate and recreate. This year, home-show owner Jim Rice has added to the popular event by twinning it with the Kamloops Life @ 55+ showcase, which features a wide array of information for those entering the primes of their lives, from retirement planning to enjoying the fruits of a life’s labour. Rice said it simply made sense to combine the two events as they both deal with a similar demographic — the population segment between the ages of 45 and 75. The Kamloops Fall Home Show and Kamloops Life @ 55+ will take place on Saturday, Oct. 18 (10 a.m. to 5 p.m.), and Sunday, Oct. 19 (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.), and, as always, admission is free.

Why replace when you can ...

Saturday’s lineup includes three guest speakers, with Marlene Stocker of Benjamin Moore presenting Perfect Paint Colour Tips For Your Home at 11 a.m. At 1 p.m., David J.A. Porteous of CAUS Financial and Insurance Inc. will speak on How To Save Money Buying Drugs, a presentation that will also discuss prescription-drug pricing, health and dental and out-of-country travel, medical and financial issues. The 2:30 p.m. speaker is Shari Simpson, owner of Keenfit The Pole Walking Company. On Sunday, Stocker will again lead the speaker series at 11 a.m. She will be followed at 1 p.m. by Ryan Scorgie, a partner with Forward Law LLP, who will talk about Elements of Estate Planning. The weekend speaker series will wrap up on Sunday with a 2:30 p.m. presentation by Shae Cook, an aromatherapy instructor and shamanic healer who will talk about Cleansing and Detoxifying Your Body.

HOME SHOW

Autumn hues in the home

Autumn is a welcome opportunity to bring a little of the outdoors into your home. Highlight the wonderful rich hues that come with the fall season by applying a fresh finish to wood furniture, cabinets and accessories. It is a simple DIY project that emphasizes the natural grain pattern on any wood. Here are some simple staining tips to ensure the best results for your finished product.

Equipment:

• Fine-grit sandpaper

• Disposable rubber gloves • Minwax Wood Finishing Cloths • Clean rag

Sanding:

Always prepare the wood with a light sanding. This ensures you get an even coat of stain. Always sand in the direction of the grain to avoid leaving scratches and use a fine-grit sandpaper to get a smooth appearance. Make sure to remove all the sanding dust before moving on.

Preparation:

To keep hands clean, wear the gloves provided in the Minwax Finishing Cloths package. Open the front label. Remove a stain cloth and close front label to keep cloths from drying out.

Application:

Using the pre-moistened stain cloth wipe in the direction of the wood grain, working the colour into the surface. Wipe off excess stain with a clean rag. Never allow any excess

stain to dry on wood surface — it will become sticky.

Evaluation:

After letting the finish sit, evaluate your work. If you are satisfied, do not apply any further stain. However, for an even deeper colour and sheen, wait one hour, and then apply a second coat, using a fresh cloth. Remember — stain provides colour, not protection. Apply a clear finish product, such as Minwax Polycyclic protective finish, to protect both the stain and the wood.

New in home décor Revamping personal environments can not only add beauty, but makes us feel better emotionally and physically, preparing us for the seasonal turn. “The market is overflowing with new and exciting introductions,” says Sally Morse, director of creative services for Hunter Douglas. “The new designs are enough to make a big difference both in your home’s look and mood without requiring a major overhaul.” Here are some of her favourite ways to update any home:

Glam touches

An original wallcovering, light fixtures or a gamut of accessories are a few glamorous touches that can go a long way. Try papering the foyer in a texturedmetallic material or add a shimmering glow with linear LED lights hidden in the ceiling.

Updated classics

Hunter Douglas Pirouette window shadings are reminiscent of classically hobbled Roman shades, but feature an innovative design of soft, horizontal fabric vanes attached to a single sheer backing. The vanes open and close for variable light control and reduced glare. New Alustra Pirouette shadings enhance these qualities with a luscious new fabric, Charmeuse, which has the essence of raw silk with a refined texture in eight colours. A tinted back sheer is standard

Hunter Douglas offers the widest variety of product operating systems that eliminate or reduce access to lift cords. The designs are well-suited for homes with young children.

Going further.

Mercedes-Benz introduces the Sprinter 4x4. Mercedes-Benz has been perfecting commercial vehicles since they made the first one over a century ago. Backed by that same tradition of excellence and innovation, the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter has set the standards for the modern work van, leading the way in superior efficiency, durability, and safety. But even with such an impressive history, they‘ve never been the type to get stuck in the past. The team behind the best-in-class work van is again going where others have yet to go with its latest innovation - the Sprinter 4x4. The already impressively capable Sprinter is getting a ground-gripping 4-wheel drive upgrade, making it the only 4x4 work van on, or off, the road. Each Sprinter 4x4, available in the 2500 Cargo Van, 3500 Cargo Van, and 2500 Passenger Van, will come standard with an electronically engaged 4-wheel drive system that‘s as equally powerful as it is efficient.

An easy decision on a tougher-than-ever work van.

If you‘re looking for a work van that can go where the competition doesn‘t dare, and one with the efficiency, dependability, and safety you‘ve come to expect from Mercedes-Benz, the Sprinter 4x4 is the solid choice to take your business further.
