As The Last Post rings out in a quiet Riverside Park, a few-hundred people bow their heads in silence. They stand around the park’s cenotaph, part of an impromptu memorial service to remember Cpl. Nathan Cirillo and Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent, who were murdered last week in Quebec and Ontario. Representatives from the Rocky Mountain Rangers, the RCMP, the Royal Canadian Legion speak, as do politicians. Words like “terrorism,” “tragedy” and “fear” are used, as are “honour” and “pride,” “brothers” and “sons.” Wreaths are placed at the base of cenotaph and members of the public are invited to so the same. One woman steps forward with two teddy bears wearing camouflage uniforms, the word “soldier” scrawled across their chests. Another sets down a dozen flowers with a note that reads: “May we never forget their service and their sacrifice. Such a tragic loss.” Tears are wiped from eyes hidden behind dark sunglasses. One woman puts her arm around an elderly lady next to her, squeezing her shoulder in support. Heads bow, shake, eyes close. Soldiers stand at attention, tall and proud. They salute, their faces stoic. If they fear for their safety in their uniforms, they don’t show it. The laughter of children, too young to understand, can be heard nearby.

A rancher standing in the middle of the proposed Trans Mountain pipeline through Lac Du Bois is in favour of the project and has been granted intervenor status at hearings next year. Terry Inskip’s stance in support of Kinder Morgan is in contrast to Grasslands Conservation Council of B.C., which has condemned the proposal as a threat to otherwise protected grasslands. Kinder Morgan favours a Westsyde bypass that would avoid the current pipeline route and travel along an existing Telus right-of-way. “It’s going to go through my private land, grazing lease and grazing licence in the case of Lac Du Bois,” Inskip said. Inskip said he has attended all Kinder Morgan’s public meetings and has been in discussions with company officials. “I’m comfortable with what they’re doing as long as they do what’s presented.”
He acknowledged he stands to be compensated for access to his land. The Grasslands Conservation Council said it would oppose the route through Lac Du Bois, which executive director Scott Benton said requires an amendment to the park’s boundaries. “Our comments to the ministry is we thought they didn’t do an adequate job representing the pros and cons and why other options wouldn’t work,” Benton said. Routing through the park, rather than digging up 100 yards in Westsyde as well as sections of road, is estimated to save the company $20 million, Benton said. But, running the line beside Telus’s rightof-way will become a 20-metre scar the Grasslands Council estimates will take 20 to 50 years to return to its natural condition. “I agree with them in principle,” Inskip said. “In this case, there’s disruption to Westsyde and the fact there’s already a scar through the protected area.”

A medical marijuana start-up firm has made a tentative deal to buy two industrial lots in Barriere for a production and research facility. GreenSkyLabs, a company incorporated in Alberta, made its plans public yesterday (Oct. 27) to locate an operation in the North Thompson town of 1,800. Mayor Bill Humphreys said the company has submitted an offer to purchase two lots in the Louis Creek subdivision — site of the former Tolko Industries Ltd. mill that burned in what was dubbed Firestorm 2003 — contingent on it receiving approval from Health Canada. Company founder Sam Scherwitz, who also owns an LED supply company, told KTW GreenSkyLabs intends to build a “testing, research and cultivation centre� in Barriere. He said availability of inexpensive land, location between Alberta and Victoria and a desire to develop “in an area where we can help growth� is what brought the company to Barriere. Scherwitz said in addition to its required
permitting with Health Canada, GreenSkyLabs is also hoping to list on a Canadian stock exchange in the first quarter of next year to raise money for the venture. The first profit generator in the Barriere building would be growing medical marijuana, but Scherwitz also said the company wants to develop research facilities for extraction of compounds in marijuana that can be used in the pharmaceutical industry. “We’ve committed with the mayor and made a deal with the city,� he said. The industrial park where GreenSky’s facility would be operated is owned by the municipality of Barriere. Scherwitz also credited Humphreys for pursuing the economic opportunity. “It could be pretty huge,� the company founder said. “It’s hundreds of job opportunities.� Humphreys said he originally met GreenSky officials at a Vancouver Board of Trade meeting. The mayor described himself as originally “exceptionally skeptical� about the reality of company claims. But, he added, the company and its principals are real — and have credibility and busi-
ness experience to make it happen. Health Canada no longer issues licences for medical-marijuana users and has shifted to licensing large facilities for commercial production of medical marijuana. That financial opportunity has produced what some publications have dubbed a “green rush� to profit through public listings, in some cases taking over dormant junior mining companies. Barriere council just released its negotiations from in-camera status. “They checked out . . . They appear to be well-funded and well-intentioned,� Humphreys said, noting he opposes recreational use of marijuana and educated himself about the medical side before pursuing the opportunity. The next concrete step for the company will be the filing of building plans and, after obtaining of a Health Canada licence, closing the deal to buy industrial land for the facility that Humphreys forecasts would start with a basic crew of about 30, with opportunity for many more. Scherwitz also cautioned the company is withholding some business deals so it can comply with its goal of public listing next year.

McArthur Island Park open to dogs — sort of Dog owners still want access to more of the island ANDREA KLASSEN STAFF REPORTER andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com
For years, Sue Burt has wanted to take Ralphie to McArthur Island Park. The Kamloops senior, who likes the park for its flat walking trails, has sent a series of letters and petitions to city staff, urging them to scale back the no-dogsallowed policy that makes all of the North Shore park off-limits to her poodle mix. “I just love the park and I have a very docile, small dog,” she said. “It would be the perfect place to go for a walk.” Next spring, Burt and other dog owners will get their first chance to take their animals onto the island, but only a small portion of trail will be opened to canine companions.
Shawn Cook, parks operations supervisor, said the city doesn’t allow dogs on the island because it’s primarily sportsfield based. “That’s the way it’s always been,” he said. “And we have that on all of our athletic fields — there’s no dogs.” But, when the city was compiling its parks master plan, Cook said staff realized the no-dog policy on the island disrupts the Rivers Trail, which extends onto McArthur from Cambridge Crescent to MacKenzie Avenue. “Because there’s no dogs allowed in the park, period, people would have to go around where NorKam is,” Cook said. “It was really awkward if you’re walking your dog on Rivers Trail and, as soon as you get to Mac
Island, you have to go around, along the road or sidewalk.” While he expects the move will need council approval first, Cook said staff’s plan is to allow, on a trial basis, dogs onto the portion of Rivers Trail necessary to move on and off the island without leaving the pathway. “The only concern is hopefully dog owners stay on that section and don’t start going on the soccer fields,” he said. If dog owners stay where they’re told, the move could become permanent. Burt said the news is a start, but she wants more. While she agrees dogs shouldn’t run over the soccer fields, she thinks the entire trail loop circling McArthur should be fair game. “I want the whole thing,” she said.

Security scanner Human-rights for B.C. legislature complaint going to hearing TOM FLETCHER
BLACK PRESS
VICTORIA — Extra security is in place at the B.C. legislature, part of the response to shootings at Parliament Hill in Ottawa Wednesday morning. Premier Christy Clark told reporters Wednesday there was a review of legislature security after an attempted plot to place homemade bombs on the legislature grounds before Canada Day celebrations in July 2013. That resulted in tighter security measures that will be reviewed again after the Ottawa shootings, Clark said. B.C. Liberal house leader Mike de Jong said legislature security staff have recommended installation of a security scanner for visitors, and he and NDP house leader Mike
Farnworth have endorsed the plan. In the legislature, Clark called for the tradition of open democracy to be maintained. “Out of these tragedies today, we must all remember, first, to be grateful for those who work for us every day to keep us safe; second, to be grateful for the institutions we have built that have made Canada a model of democracy around the world; third, to move forward into the future and continue to make the decisions that Canada needs — unafraid to do what we need to do to stand up for this country, to ensure that citizens in Canada continue to have access to their public institutions, and unafraid to defend democracy and the institutions that have defined Canada for generations,” Clark said. NDP leader John Horgan echoed that sentiment.
Developers seeking re-zoning on McGill ANDREA KLASSEN
STAFF REPORTER
andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com
A former piece of city property could become home to a high-end commercial, industrial and residential development worth $29 million, pending city approval. City council has voted to hold a public hearing on Top of McGill Holdings Ltd.’s application to rezone 1452 McGill Rd. from an industrial park to a comprehensive development zone. Developers Frank Quinn and Jeff Arnold purchased the 2.7-acre property from the city for $2.2 million in 2013. If the application is successful, they would be able to build up to 14 units of multi-family housing, a neighbourhood pub or restaurant and university-support facilities. Retail outlets selling furniture, building materials, electronics and similar goods would also be allowed, as would offices for construction, technology and resourcebased companies. It’s the latter Quinn has his eye on. “I want to bring some of the big boys
here, that have come through town but haven’t found the real estate they want to own or lease and have moved on,” he told KTW. “I think that’s happening more than we know.” Quinn said the property’s views of the river valley will make the complex more attractive, but luring big tech and resource companies also requires a higher standard of building. “It’s simple things like ceiling heights, 16-foot ceilings, adequate outdoor space, deck space, window features,” he said. To give the development a more open feeling, Quinn said the company plans to cover less than 40 per cent of the lot with buildings. Under its present industrial zoning, 60 per cent coverage is allowed. “We want to make it very comfortable to park there and work there, and not have it feel too congested,” he said. Housing on the site will be targeted to those who work on other parts of the property, Quinn said, in the model of Vancouver’s
Yaletown and other Lower Mainland developments. For the residential component to be included in the project, the city has to agree to amend its official community plan, since housing units aren’t allowed in industrial zones. Top of McGill has applied to have the parcel designated as a commercial site instead, where housing is allowed in mixed-use projects. That issue will also be up for discussion at the public hearing, scheduled to take place Nov. 4. Quinn said if city council approves the plan, the company hopes to start work on the complex in March of 2015.

A hearing is set for next year to determine whether a local health society discriminated against a worker who suffered kidney failure and was fired seven months later. Caroline Connor filed a complaint with B.C. Human Rights Tribunal against Q’wemtsin Health Society. She alleges the agency, located on the Tk’emlups Indian Band reserve, discriminated against her based on her health. The society oversees services for Skeetchestn, Tk’emlups and Whispering Pines Indian bands. According to a human rights tribunal report, Connor accepted a finance position at Q’wemtsin, leaving Shuswap Nation Tribal Council, in July 2012. But, within two months, she was hospitalized for acute kidney failure. She returned to work on a modified schedule, supplemented with short-term disability payments. “Ms. Connor says that she worked hard and felt pressured to work more hours,” tribunal member Catherine McCreary wrote in her decision. Connor claims the work overload caused her further medical problems and she was fired after a probationary period. Q’wemtsin applied to dismiss Connor’s complaint, arguing the issues will be dealt with in B.C. Supreme Court. Connor has filed action
against the society as well as benefits insurer Manulife and an insurance agent, alleging she was fired so Q’wemtsin could escape further responsibility under the benefit package. The society unsuccessfully argued the court action duplicates the complaint under human rights law. Tribunal member McCreary ruled whether Connor’s medical condition played any part in her dismissal is a question “that might not be addressed in the court action,” but will be answered by the tribunal. The hearing is scheduled for August of 2015.

NO EASY ROAD FOR KINDER MORGAN If Kinder Morgan thought it would have an easier time than Enbridge getting broad community support for its oil pipeline project, it was wrong. Enbridge was a greenfield project crossing great swathes of iconic and untouched wilderness. Kinder Morgan’s is a brownfield project— a twinning of a 62-yearold pipeline in, for the most part, an existing right-of-way. Dig up the ground next to the old pipe, put in a new one, and call it a day, right? There is, however, the fear of a catastrophic oil spill with increased tanker traffic once the oil gets to Burnaby. Then there is worry over pipeline leaks or ruptures all the way up the line where it crosses a great number of waterways, including the Vedder River. The National Energy Board (NEB) heard from elders in the local First Nations community this week how this project is another example through history of the Xwelitem — a Halq’emeylem word for nonnatives — displacing people, taking land and taking resources. From the point of contact, the Sto:lo have been hit with smallpox, fur traders, the gold rush, the Indian Act, the Fisheries Act, the railroad, the Trans-Canada Highway, forestry, and, in 1952, the existing pipeline was built. Never mind support from non-native citizens and environmental groups, Kinder Morgan is in the middle of discovering whether or not B.C.’s First Nations community are willing, after centuries of it, to take one more incursion, one more displacement, one more disruption.

To be blunt, forum informative
I
f the youth forum held at the Kamloops Boys and Girls Club last Thursday (Oct. 23) is any kind of indicator of this year’s voting patterns, Donovan Cavers can rest easy. In a straw vote following a debate by 21 of this year’s citycouncil candidates and three mayoral hopefuls, the first-term councillor walked away with enough votes from the under-18 crowd to command the plum city hall seating assignment currently held by Ken Christian. Thanks to a smaller number of voters and a high number of candidates at the youth forum, Cavers needed only seven votes to top the polls. But, with the poll’s runnersup, Cheryl Phippen and Peter Kerek, only commanding two votes each, decisive it was. (The forum’s mayoral straw poll was closer, with Ben James losing to incumbent Mayor Peter Milobar by a single vote. I’ll leave you to draw your own larger conclusions about that.) So, what makes Cavers so popular with the youth? Age might be a factor, but it’s clearly not the only one. Fellow candidate Dustin McIntyre, the youngest in the race at 25, cracked a joke at the beginning of the session about being closer in age to the teens watching him debate than to his fellow candidates. He didn’t manage to secure a single vote. Instead, Cavers’ win appears to comes down to swag and busses.
ANDREA KLASSEN

MUSINGS Of the many teens I spoke to at the debate, most mentioned transit as their key issue. “I don’t have my driver’s licence and I don’t know when I’m going to get it, so I need a way to get around,” Ceilidh McNaughton said. Dustyn Makortoff said getting in and out of Batchelor Heights can be a challenge because the bus he needs stops running at 6:30 p.m. “I go to Thompson Rivers University and I have to be at the bus stop at 6:35 a.m. in the morning just to get to class late,” Reine Arnold said. Cavers wasn’t the only candidate to pledge to expand transit when questioned about the bus schedule during the debate — but that’s where the buttons come in. If any other candidates brought buttons to the forum, I didn’t see them. Cavers’, on the other hand, were everywhere. And, teenagers aren’t much different than your average working-stiff voter.
As a handful of them crowded around the coffee urn during a post-voting snack session, I heard complaints that are in no way specific to the Boys and Girls Club: “My brain’s fried from school.” “There are so many candidates.” “I still don’t know who some of these people are.” While a couple of other candidates were name-checked for their responses to questions, few were rewarded for their answers during the forum, even when they got major applause for their ideas. The youth forum won’t be the best-attended event of the campaign cycle, but there’s certainly a lesson in it for candidates. With 28 names on a list, being impressive and having good ideas isn’t nearly enough. For the rest of us, consider this — of the debates and mixers I’ve attended so far, this one seemed to get the most ideas out of the candidates — and the best responses always followed the bluntest of questions. “What plans for the North Shore do you have?” may not be as deliciously pointed and pointscoring as “Is it OK to introduce just a little bit of poison into our air?” But, with the former question, unlike the latter from the Council of Canadians’ farmers market debate the weekend before, you might learn something. andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com Twitter: @AndreaThisWeek

YOUR OPINION LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
WE SHOULD ALL STAND BEHIND OUR TROOPS Editor: While one must appreciate the efforts of national defence to safeguard our armed-forces personnel from the harm inflicted by radicalized, homegrown jihadists (or, in some cases, people with illness and too much time to surf the web), telling Canadian soldiers to not wear their uniforms in public seems like a knee-jerk reaction. If the prime minister maintains these recent attacks on our soil will not deter our resolve, then our armed-forces personnel should proudly wear their uniforms in Canada as they do abroad and within bases. We do not hide. We remain vigilant. There is another consideration to the wearing of that military uniform — continued public support. Canadian civilians have, and have had, a somewhat detached relationship with our military. We never seem to be quite sure of what to make of it and Canadian armed-forces administration has only served to further the disconnect. During and after the Iraqi and Afghanistan campaigns, I noted in myself and others a greater respect for our military personnel. Sure, it was there before, but it was more dormant. We had embraced Lester Pearson’s concept of international peacekeeping, not bloodletting.
I bought my poppy, wore it and stopped for a moment of silence, but generally equated the military more or less with my father’s experiences during the Second World War and with the Middle East; hence my personal sense of disconnect. With news articles related to the poor treatment of our vets, post-traumatic stress disorder, the reported poor state of preparedness and lack of equipment, you felt sorry for them and wondered who would want to enlist with these reported poor conditions prevailing. Yet, people still did and continue to do so. Working on McGill Road and passing the armoury every day for the past 14 years, I sense a slow and welcome change. I think now in the early morning — when I chance by a training group heading out as I head to my comfortable office — that I continue to enjoy my freedoms, my Canada, because they are there. It does not matter that our military footprint is small. It does not matter that our comrades to the south have the largest and most technologically advanced military in the world. They are not us. We may disagree with the politics. We may disagree with the campaigns being waged. They are separate issues resolved at the ballot box.
Our troops still do their duty. Those armed-forces personnel I chance by, whom I will never know, may be maimed or killed so we can continue to enjoy everything we take for granted. I am more apt now to tip my hat and sound my horn in the pouring rain as they trudge by. I buy their coffee at Tim Hortons when the opportunity is provided and I say thank you. I cannot do very much, but I can show my support — and so should you. This year, wear your poppy early in honour of not only those who have fallen in the past, but for Cpl. Nathan Cirillo and Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent. I’m sure they were good people senselessly killed by cowards on our soil. From the centennial of the First World War to the recent tragedies in Quebec and Ontario, remember again this wonderful country, province and city were, to some extent, born out of the hardships of those individuals who remain proud to count themselves as armed-forces personnel.’ Like the bumper sticker says — if you don’t stand behind our troops, feel free to stand in front. Paul Blackett Kamloops
CONSTANT BADGERING DOWNTOWN IS HARASSMENT Editor: I work downtown, on Victoria Street, and I love the location and convenience of shops and restaurants. What I do not love and what I find is personal harassment, is all the people who ask for spare change. I give regularly to my charity of choice and I help others when I can. But, to be asked for change in the morning, on my breaks, during lunch and while walking to my car after my shift is appalling. A note to these people: Stop smoking, clean up your act and do something good for others and I may be a little more charitable.
Asking me for money with a smoke and coffee in your hand when I can’t even afford a coffee on some days is insulting. There are places to go for food and shelter. There are places to go to get help for issues. We are not your personal change machine on a daily basis. Please try to have a little respect for us, as well as for yourself. Debbie Mayer Kamloops

Tom Gaglardi to be sentenced on Dec. 12 The owner of the Kamloops Blazers and the NHL’s Dallas Stars who the Crown wants to fork over $300,000
for environmental damage caused to Kamloops Lake will find out his fate in December.
School District No. 73 NOTICE OF ELECTION PUBLIC NOTICE IS HEREBY given to the electors of Electoral Areas ‘A’ & ‘B’ of the Thompson-Nicola Regional District that an election by voting is necessary to elect one School Trustee, and that the persons nominated as candidates and for whom votes will be received are:
SCHOOL TRUSTEE - One (1) to be elected Surname MACDONALD SIM
Usual Names Willow Shelley
Residential Address or Jurisdiction 810 Pine Street, Blue River BC 631 Downie Road, Clearwater, BC
VOTING DATES AND LOCATIONS
Tom Gaglardi was convicted in August of two counts of harmful alteration of a fish habitat. His company, Northland Properties, was convicted on the same counts. The charges were laid after Gaglardi did extensive work to a lakefront vacation home in Savona in 2010, damaging 2,400 square metres of shoreline in the process. At a hearing earlier this month, Crown prosecutor Digby Kier said Gaglardi’s approach to the renovations — a five-bedroom, two-bathroom
addition to an existing lakeside bungalow, court heard, which also included a 50-car parking lot — was to build first and ask questions later. Court heard Gaglardi never obtained a permit for any of TOM the work. GAGLARDI At trial earlier this year, court heard a Northland employee testify he was ordered to throw his computer “in the lake” when federal authorities began looking into the
environmental improprieties. The employee, Jim Parks, said he was also ordered to remove Northland logos from the project’s blueprint. Kier described Gaglardi’s actions as the “blatant, blatant, blatant” actions of a “privileged family.” A $300,000 fine is the maximum allowed by law. Defence lawyer Rob Bruneau has said the fine should be in the $50,000 to $75,000 range. Gaglardi is slated to learn his sentence in Kamloops provincial court on Dec. 12.

KamloopsThompson-Cariboo MP Cathy McLeod has defended an omnibus bill introduced by her Conservative government as a extension of its spring budget. The bill includes a grab-bag of measures, ranging from tax breaks for beekeepers to provisions banning cable companies from charging for paper bills. “Most of the things are income tax and financial measures,� McLeod said. “There’s things in the budget, like the DNA databank, that will have a cost and was in the budget.� Much of the 458page bill involves the
complicated implementation of tax changes and other budget measures, including revisions to the Investment Canada Act. There are some tax breaks for families and students. One section broadens the scope of the national DNA bank. Another tightens the rules around the temporary foreign workers system. Still another establishes a long-promised Arctic research station. McLeod highlighted a proposed doubling of the child fitness tax credit and an end to companies charging to send out paper bills — something she has heard complaints about at the constituency level. Conspicuous by its
absence, however, is a controversial proposal to amend the Copyright Act to give a politician or party the power to use video, audio and photographs from news outlets. A cabinet document presented by Heritage Minister Shelly Glover and obtained earlier this month by CTV News and the Canadian Press indicated the proposed copyright changes would be included an upcoming budget bill. One measure in the bill increases the maximum amount that may be claimed under the child fitness tax credit and makes that credit refundable beginning in 2015. Another extends the existing tax credit for interest paid on

casters and cable and satellite providers from charging customers for paper bills, a measure the Conservatives have promised and touted as a consumer-protection measure. Another part of the bill establishes the Canadian High Arctic Research Station, a federal research organization that is to be responsible for advancing knowledge of the Arctic. There is a section expanding the DNA data bank. It will now include DNA profiles from missing persons, their relatives and from human remains. The idea is to help police, coroners and medical examiners to find missing persons and identify human remains. The legislation specifies the purposes for which the commissioner of the RCMP may communicate the results of comparisons of DNA profiles and details what DNA comparisons can be used for. The omnibus bill also enacts the government’s promised EI tax break for small businesses. — with files from the Canadian Press

The bill makes a handful of changes to the Investment Canada Act, which governs foreign takeovers of Canadian companies. The amendments will allow Ottawa to disclose more information about its decision when it denies a takeover due to national security concerns as it did when it rejected a deal Manitoba Telecom Services had signed to sell Allstream to Egyptian investment group Accelero Capital for $520 million. Ottawa has been criticized for the lack of disclosure about the review process under the act. The changes also will require foreign companies to disclose to Ottawa when they acquire a stake in a Canadian business through the conversion of a loan or other financial assistance. The bill also includes measures with little connection to the budget. One bans broad-

The Kelson Group, a property-management company in Kamloops, is marking its 40th year through an increased support of the United Way campaign — and providing some incentive for students, faculty and staff at Thompson Rivers University to do the same. “We pledge to match new or increased gifts to either of these worthwhile community causes,� company vice-president Jason Fawcett said of his business’s commitment to allocate $40,000 for the community drive, including a portion that will be used as matching money for TRU donations. “We are hoping to inspire others to support students at TRU or community agencies through the United Way. “Either way, there is no more effective way to make more fundamental improvements to the lives of deserving people in our community,� Fawcett said. In previous years, the university has run two campaigns supporting the United Way Thompson-Nicola-Cariboo fundraiser but, this year, the TRU Foundation has joined with the main campus to create one large initiative. The campus campaign began on Oct. 20.

Terry Fox Day a reality TOM FLETCHER
BLACK PRESS

The B.C. government is preparing to declare the second Sunday of September Terry Fox Day, recognizing the annual Marathon of Hope events around the world that raise money for cancer research. Port MoodyCoquitlam MLA Linda Reimer presented a private member’s bill Thursday to recognize the day the annual
runs have been held since 1980, when Fox embarked on a crosscountry run that was cut short by a relapse of cancer. As a student at Simon Fraser University, Reimer recalled seeing Fox run around the campus quadrangle and wondering what he was training for. “It honours a great man whose combination of strength, passion, idealism and sheer guts led to the
impossible notion that he would run across Canada on one good leg and a prosthesis, the equivalent of a marathon a day,” Reimer told the legislature. Premier Christy Clark said Reimer’s bill is expected to pass with unanimous support next week. She met with Terry’s father Rolly, sister Judith and brothers Darrell and Fred in her office Thursday to speak to reporters.
Darrell Fox said the declaration will encourage volunteers who organize Terry Fox runs, who have raised $650 million in the past 34 years. “That’s why we’re so excited, because it gives them something to look forward to, to promote next year, and the fact that it has happened here in B.C.,” he said. “Terry Fox is everywhere, across this country and around the world, but he was from Port Coquitlam.”
that human-generated carbon dioxide traps heat in the atmosphere. But, he argues the uncertain effect of rising emissions should cause policy-makers to wait for clarity before “making any irreversible climate policy commitments, in order to avoid making costly decisions that are revealed a short time later to have been unnecessary.” Weaver questioned the accuracy of McKitrick’s report. “To say that there’s no statistically significant change over the last 15 to 20 years, it’s just not true,” Weaver said. “2005 is the second warmest year on record, 2010 is the warmest and we’re going to break the record in 2014 and set a new record.” Weaver said climate models in the late 1990s estimated an amount of particulate and aerosol pollution in the world’s atmosphere that has been exceeded by grow-
ing thermal coal use in China and other emerging economies. That pollution has a cooling effect and, when air pollution is cleaned up it as it has been in North America, warming increases, he said. “It doesn’t say anything about models or international policy,” Weaver said. “One thing we know is that China
is going to clean up its air quality because they have to.” The issue is significant to B.C., where a carbon tax on fuels remains in place. Northeastern B.C.’s booming shale gas production, a cornerstone of the provincial government’s economic strategy, contains more CO2 than conventional gas.

Losing Weight Has Pollution ‘slows’ global warming Never Been Easier! TOM FLETCHER
BLACK PRESS
tfletcher@blackpress.ca
The apparent slowing of global warming in recent years is likely due to effects of increased particulate and other conventional pollution, particularly from thermal coal use in Asia, according to B.C. MLA and climate scientist Andrew Weaver. Weaver was asked to respond to a report by University of Guelph environmental economist Ross McKitrick, a longtime critic of climatechange models and a senior fellow at the Fraser Institute. Reviewing temperature data used by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, McKitrick noted data for the last two decades have shown less warming than was predicted by most climate models. McKitrick does not challenge the conclusion
After allowing the pounds to creep on and the ensuing health issues I knew I had to do something. A friend told me about Powertone. I look forward to the twice a week half hour sessions. Since my first appointment I have lost over 15 pounds and 31/2 inches off of my abdomen, 3 inches off of my hips and 21/2 off of each thigh. I feel better and movement is easier. The training is in a private studio and Irene immediately put me at ease. Her encouragement and experience makes each session a joy! I highly recommend Powertone. Hazel Green, KAMLOOPS

‘Lucky mom’ has re-election goals DALE BASS

Calling herself a lucky mom who is able to be home for her children and still have a job she cares about passionately, Kathleen Karpuk is seeking her third term as a trustee with the Kamloops-Thompson board of education. Karpuk said the work she does in that role is not just a job. “Education is the underpinning of our entire democracy and, if there aren’t people who really, truly care, providing the best education for our kids, we put our very democracy in jeopardy,” she said. While praising the district for its biggest strength — cooperation among all the different groups involved in educating children — Karpuk said one of her personal goals for a third term is to see the graduation rate of First Nations students come close to par

with non-aboriginal students. “And I’m also hoping by the time my eldest [a nine-yearold] graduates, that they no longer will be behind and we won’t be talking about it anymore,” she said. Karpuk praised the district’s teachers, calling them “amazing,” and sees the role of the trustee as helping create an educational environment that allows teachers to continue to have the opportunity to do the great work they do. Noting two of her children attend a school that is regard-
ed as being in an area of low socio-economic income, Karpuk said it’s essential to realize that, for some children, the strongest connection they have to an adult may come at school. “Maybe mom and dad, maybe just mom, is working all day just to put food on the table and she just doesn’t have anything more to give at the end of the day,” Karpuk said. “These kids need to have some other adult they can connect with.” Karpuk said the next big challenge facing the KamloopsThompson school district is developing another long-term plan to see it through the next five years. As a trustee, Karpuk said, she spends hours reading, researching and doing her homework so she comes to board and committee meetings prepared to deal with issues — but it’s work she loves to do.

If Meghan Wade is successful in winning a third term as a board trustee, her goals are clear. She wants to focus on improving student achievement, take advantage of the anticipated labour peace — with contracts in place for the next five years — to build on the base of ingenuity in the district and work at the provincial level to increase cogovernance between trustees and the provincial government. Wade, who described herself as a businesswoman and mom, explained why she is seeking reelection. “Because I know what needs to improve in the district and understand what works,” she said.
MEGHAN WADE: Wants to focus on student achievement.
Part of that understanding, Wade said, is accepting school boards will never be funded to the level they feel is needed to provide the best education to their students. However, she added, is also a point that is a strength within the KamloopsThompson school district. “We manage our money very well. We are able to do things other districts can’t,” she said.

That’s not saying we’re well-funded, but we squeeze every penny of worth out of what we get — all for the betterment of our students.” Wade is the mother of one of the first International Baccalaureate students in Kamloops, who is now an engineering student at Queen’s University. Wade said there is a strong base of strengths and skills that can be expanded in coming years, all focused on improving the educational experience. “We now have the time and the energy to keep our ingenuity going,” Wade said, noting contract talks with teachers and support staff won’t arrive again until 2019. “This is a strong district,” Wade said. “We do incredible things.”

Don Kitt sees running for school board as a natural next step in his evolution as an involved parent at his son’s school. Kitt, a construction worker, said he regrets family and work life kept him too busy to be an active parent when his four older daughters were in school. He has seen his participation at his son’s school grow from volunteering at South Sa-Hali elementary to becoming the parent-advisory committee’s vice-president. “I step in when people don’t step up,” he said. “And, I have to say, I had no idea how much is involved in education.” Kitt’s work has seen him sharing his love of carving with students to meeting with the executive of the Kamloops-Thompson Teachers’ Association during the recent strike.

Colin Madland sees online education as one aspect of today’s educational reality that could help provide options for students who might otherwise not have a lot of choice. With a master’s degree in education that involved a focus on distance education — and a job teaching the teachers who do it at Thompson Rivers University — Madland wants to bring those talents and his own expertise to the job as a trustee. A supporter of the Kamloops-Thompson’s own online education program and its KOOL online school, Madland

said the quality of learning can be enhanced through “intelligently applied distance technologies and activities that could encourage deeper thinking.” Options are a key component of his trustee candidacy and Madland praised other initiatives in the school district, particularly the
NorKam Trades Centre of Excellence and the unique learning opportunities it will provide. Madland sees the educational opportunities that exist when a student is really interested in what they are learning. “We need to fan those flames,” he said. “Teaching itself is not a silver bullet, but needs to be utilized in ways that suit the student’s learning.” Madland pointed to Bert Edwards science and technology school as yet another example of the district crafting a special teaching/learning environment.

Noting the traditional mainstream educational model works for many students, he said the key is to find the correct fit. Madland said he has an interest in the educational experiences the board provides to international students as well, having experienced it when he and his family moved to Japan “Overnight, we were illiterate,” he said. Madland also wants to contribute to supporting “the high quality teaching and learning the district provides — it is the foundation of all decisions.”

Siracky puts affordable homes on priority list

A home for the arts and affordable homes for the city’s fixedincome residents are high on the priority list for Bernadette Siracky. The executive director of the Kamloops Food Bank said her time as head of the nonprofit agency has helped shaped her platform in the race to become a city councillor on Nov. 15. “I see daily in my work what happens when people have a home — and it is a beautiful thing,� she said. “Kamloops can be
an expensive place to live. As a matter of fact, B.C. is expensive to live.� Siracky started as the executive director of the food bank in 2008, a year after moving to Kamloops from Calgary. Before that, she worked as a teacher, often creating programming for students with learning disabilities. She said she’s been impressed by Kamloops’ ability to come together on issues and believes community collaboration plays a major role in creating affordable housing.
BERNADETTE SIRACKY: Impressed by city’s ability to come together.
Siracky said the city doesn’t need to start from scratch on the issue, but could benefit from “new conversations or revisiting current opportunities.� That might mean making zoning changes that favour afford-
able projects during the update of the city’s official community plan or finding different uses for existing infrastructure. Siracky said she’s also excited by the idea of a performingarts centre in the city, which she believes could boost tourism and cultural profiles. “There’s so many exciting things going on right now that supporting the movement forward is going to be exciting,� she said. “It’s going to be an exciting conversation.� When it comes to the proposed Ajax copper and gold mine, Siracky said she’s
Hilke is calling all volunteers ANDREA KLASSEN STAFF REPORTER andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com
Glenn Hilke doesn’t have a seat on Kamloops city council yet but, if he’s successful in the Nov. 15 election, he already knows how long his career in civic politics will last. Hilke, a self-described artist and community activist, has pledged he will sit for only a single four-year term if voters send him to city hall. “It seems that Kamloops is at some kind of crossroads right now on every level — politically, socially, economically, culturally — and I thought, this is a good time to participate, contribute ideas, stir the pot,� Hilke said. An American by birth who spent much of his adult life in Montreal, Hilke believes his experiences in larger cities on both sides of the border allow him to bring a different perspective to Kamloops issues. Hilke is hoping to change the culture at city hall, in particular the way staff and councillors interact. “I get the feeling there is this identity that ‘we [staff] come up

WolfPack men remain winless ADAM WILLIAMS
STAFF REPORTER

t would be easy for the TRU WolfPack men’s volleyball team to panic, having lost their sixth match of the season on Saturday, Oct. 25, against the UBC Thunderbirds. But, head coach Pat Hennelly is hoping to keep his team from going down that route. “The message is we’re competing well right now,” he said. “It’s tough. We spent a lot of energy today, climbed a huge mountain and we weren’t rewarded. “I wish this effort was here against Trinity [Western University] and against Calgary. I think we would have had some Ws in the column. But, we’re doing the right things right now.” UBC is 5-1 on the season while the WolfPack is 0-6. The WolfPack appeared to have their first victory of the season in hand on Saturday, pulling ahead two sets to zero against the Thunderbirds at the Tournament Capital Centre. UBC came storming back and won 18-16 in a fifth-set heartbreaker for the WolfPack. “The message is we’ve got to keep this going, keep competing, not worry about results right now,” Hennelly
said. “It’s easy now to panic. We’ve just got to stay doing what we’ve been doing.” The WolfPack was led by a dominant performance from outside hitter Casey Knight, who had 30 kills on 68 attempts and 11 digs. This weekend was Knight’s debut for the Pack — he spent the first four matches of the season sidelined with an ankle injury. Hennelly praised Knight’s play, noting his weekend was all the more impressive given the fact he hasn’t had any practice time yet this year. “Everybody’s getting tired and going ‘Oh man, I’m getting tired of volleyball,’” and I’m going, ‘All I want to do is step on the court and play,’” Knight said. “It feels great. I mean, my ankle is still pretty sore, but what can you do.” The WolfPack finished the 2013-2014 season with a 13-9 record and still managed to qualify for the post-season. It’s not time to panic yet, but with six of the team’s next eight matches against top-quality competition — Brandon (4-0), Manitoba (5-1), Winnipeg (5-1) — they’re running out of time to right the ship. TRU is hosting the Regina Cougars on Friday, Oct. 31. Game time is 7:45 p.m. The rematch gets

TRU’s volleyball women earned a split in weekend CIS
play at the TCC. The WolfPack won a five-set thriller against UBC on Friday, but fell in in straight sets to the T-Birds on Saturday. Head coach Chad Grimm and TRU’s women are 2-4 on the

For Special Olympics athletes Megan Gorley and Kelly Archibald, February can’t come soon enough. The Kamloops participants will be among 600 athletes suiting up for the 2015 Special Olympics B.C. Winter Games, which run from Feb. 19 to Feb. 21 in the Tournament Capital. “I was jumping with joy,” Gorley, a curler, said of the moment she learned she would be attending the Games. Her team came in second at the regional qualifier and the members thought they had missed the cut. “I cried,” she said. Special Olympics B.C. held a press conference at the McArthur Island Sport and Event Centre on Friday, Oct. 24, to announce its sponsors and launch its volunteer drive for the 2015 Games. The local organizing committee is looking for about 1,000 volunteers to help with the event.

Special Olympics B.C. and the City of Kamloops also announced the Special Olympics flag will be flown at the Tournament Capital Centre from now until the Games conclude in February, to raise awareness of and support for athletes, including those in Kamloops such as Gorley, Archibald and the local snowshoeing team.

Spences chase Canadian team spots The Kamloops River City Racers were busy on the weekend, with speed skaters in action at four events. At the World Cup Long Track Trials in Calgary at the Olympic Oval, skaters were trying to qualify for the Canadian team that participates on the fall circuit. Josie Spence had second-place finishes in the 1,500-metre and 5,000-m races, with personal-best times of 1:59.65 and 7:18.66, respectively. Victoria Spence had two third-place finishes — one in the 5,000-m and the other in the long-distance, mass-start race. The World Cup
team is expected to be announced this week, with the first event set to get underway in Japan on Nov. 14. Also in action for the Racers on the weekend was Sara Spence, who was in Calgary for a longtrack invitational event which ran alongside the World Cup trials. She placed fourth in the 500-m, fifth in the 3,000-m and seventh in the 1,500-m, with a personal best time of 2:08.62. The Kamloops club had five skaters in short-track action at the October Chill Interclub event at McArthur Island Sport
and Event Centre. Summer Bogetti Smith raced in Division 1 and set personal-best times in the 200-m and 400-m events. John Hill, also competing in Division 1, set personal-best times in the 100-m, 200-m and 400-m distances. In Division 3, Finn Bogetti Smith raced to personal-best times in the 200-m and 500-m and Calvin Forbes set personal bests in the 200-m, 400-m and 500-m events. In Division 5, Alex Forbes set a personal best in the 1,000m. Eric Spence competed in an interclub
short-track meet in Langley. He qualified for three A finals, placing second, fourth and sixth.

A few blocks away, at the Twin Rivers Education Centre, Archibald was also training on Thursday night. He’s the goaltender of the floorhockey team representing Kamloops and the Okanagan region at the Games. “It’s a fun time,” he said. “We end up working together, dealing with each other. We learn new stuff, new drills. We get to work together. It’s lots of fun. “Hopefully, we can come in first or second.” The 22-year-old also has experience at previous games, twice hitting the field as catcher and third baseman in softball. He, too, is looking forward to the Games, but has another reason for being excited to play in Kamloops.
“It just means we don’t have to travel that far,” he said with a laugh. The Special Olympics Winter Games include seven sports — curling, floor hockey, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, alpine skiing, figure skating and speed skating. Figure skating, curling and speed skating will be held on McArthur Island. Alpine skiing, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing will be held at Sun Peaks Resort. Floor hockey will be played in school gyms around the city. The 2015 Games will act as a qualifier for the 2016 Special Olympics Canada Winter Games in Corner Brook, N.L.

Summerland is in the heart of wine country, but it’s also home to a hockey player who’s aging nicely— Deven Sideroff. The 17-year-old Kamloops Blazers’ forward is atop the WHL rookie scoring race with 17 points after 16 games. “Every time I look at it [the top scorers’ list], I kind of smile and just say, ‘Wow, it’s actually happening,’” said Sideroff, the right winger who plays on a line with centre Matt Needham and left winger Cole Ully. “It’s kind of shocking, but it’s good to see.” The Blazers (9-6-10, second in the B.C. Division), are hosting the U.S. Divisionleading Everett

Sideroff, who has eight goals and nine assists. “Just coming into the team, getting used to hanging out with the guys and definitely playing with Ully and Needham up front is helping me have success.” Brady Gaudet was the last Blazer rookie to score a hat trick, netting three goals as a 16-year-old against Spokane on Dec. 11, 2010.

He spent most of the last two years playing with Okanagan Hockey Academy in Penticton, exploding for 74 points in 42 games last season with the midget squad. “I took some major steps at OHA,” said Sideroff, who has two brothers, one older and one younger. “In Summerland, there is barely enough players to make a rep team. I was playing tier 4 up until my bantam year, when I went to the hockey academy.” The small-town kid has “top-notch speed,” according to Blazers’ bench boss Don Hay, but he is still learning how to utilize his afterburners.

X4 blends coupe look, SUV practicality BMW crossover is a niche vehicle capable of hauling you-know-what NEIL MOORE
METROLAND MEDIA
B
rain games have become our latest weapon against cognitive decline. Publishers, both in digital and print, have been cashing in on our desire to stay sharp with a bevy of books and computer games to exercise our grey matter. But, before pulling out the credit card, consider that BMW offers a free mental workout. Try memorizing its product lineup. Encompassing sedans, coupes, gran coupes, gran turismos, cabriolets, wagons, sports activity vehicles, and sports activity coupes — all spread across multiple “Series” and powertrains, the choices are vast. And that doesn’t even take in the less mainstream Z4 roadster, i3 and i8 electric vehicles, three ActiveHybrids and eight categories of high-performance “M” variants. Pack all that into your cerebral cortex and, before long your synapses will be firing like Stephen Hawking. But let’s drill down and focus on one of the automaker’s latest offerings — a fusion of SUV and coupe, combining the benefits and
limitations of each. This summer, the BMW X4 xDrive joined the ranks of a relatively new segment, already plumbed by its larger and polarizing X6 sibling. Such vehicles have been criticized for their bulky size and lack of usable space. Fair comment and, when you consider offerings like the ungainly Honda Crosstour, or the more premium (and now defunct) Acura ZDX, their lack of practicality has translated to less than stellar sales. Which leads me to price. The X6 Sport Activity Coupe which starts at $67,300 and can climb to $100,000 or more illustrates how one seems to be paying more for even less. But the X4, like the others and even some less ‘coupey’ offerings like Lincoln MKC and Range Rover Evoque, is really a niche vehicle. After all, not everybody needs to haul 5,000-pound trailers or heaps of hockey bags. Sometimes it’s more about hauling you-knowwhat. And on that note, the X4 is in its element. The base engine is a turbocharged 2.0-litre four cylinder that delivers 241 hp and 258 lb/ft of torque, propelling the X4 XDrive 28i from zero to 100 km/h
Part coupe, part SUV, the 2015 BMW X4 offers a sleek profile and car-like driving dynamics in an all-wheel-drive vehicle.
in 6.4 seconds. That’s pretty quick by any standard. My tester came with the potent 3.0-litre inline six, also with a twin-scroll turbo, pushing out 300 hp and 300 lb/ft of torque from a low 1,200 to 1,500 rpm. Both engines are mated to a rapid-firing eight-speed Steptronic automatic transmission. I’ve driven the turbo four in other vehicles and have found it a willing performer when pushed hard. The turbo six, however, really delivers the goods
and, in the case of the bulky X4, is rated at 5.5 seconds for the 0-100 km/h sprint. I didn’t perform my own stop-watch test, but found acceleration surprisingly brisk for a vehicle that tips the scales at 1,932 kg or 4,259 lbs. There’s precious little turbo lag when you plant the pedal and power builds quickly to near redline when in Sport mode. Giving the X4 at least some SUV cred is BMW’s proven xDrive all-wheeldrive system. And, it’s good for more than just winter weather.
Working with BMW’s Performance Control, standard on the X4, this system uses dynamic stability control to route power to the outside rear wheel, improving traction and directional stability in the turns. With the dynamic damper control set to Sport, this vehicle is adept at carving corners, with minimal body roll. But, that doesn’t mean ride is harsh. The X4 is firmer than some of its less performance oriented competitors, but in Comfort mode was quite civilized over rough pavement.
Fraserway RV has over
SPOOKATHON
I’m not convinced fuel efficiency is top of mind when purchasing this type of vehicle, but BMW is on the job anyway. Choose the Eco Pro setting (rather than Sport or Comfort) for a little less fun and up to 20 per cent better fuel economy. The usual things happen, like softer throttle response and earlier shifting, but Eco Pro also includes a coasting function, which disconnects the drivetrain when you lift off the pedal.

X4 is longer and lower than X3 From page A25
And, with BMW’s Navigation System Professional installed, you get additional petrolsaving perks. Route Ahead Assistant recognizes curves, urban areas, exits and speed limits and advises when to stop accelerating. Eco Pro Route displays the most efficient way there, based on traffic and driver behaviour. As for the look, not everybody appreciates a bulked-up coupe or slimmed-down SUV — depending on your viewpoint — but this BMW wears it well. The X4, compared to its X3 SAV stablemate, is longer (14 mm) and lower (37 mm) with muscular shoulders and powerful sculpting in the fenders. Larger air intakes in the lower grille complement its more purposeful look. The rear-sloping roofline, which gives the X4 its coupe-like profile, does impact rear headroom, but cargo space isn’t far off the boxier X3. Space behind the X4’s 40:20:40 split rear bench is 500 litres, and 1,400 litres with them dropped — enough for plenty of sports gear or your next bigbox shopping trip. The X3, by comparison, is 550 litres seats up and 1,600 litres folded. The interior, overall, is handsomely trimmed with Nevada leather upholstery (in the 3.0-litre model) and ample soft touch, along with aluminum and wood accents. Starting at $46,300 for the X4 xDrive28i and $54,950 for the xDrive35i (compared with $43,300 and $48,900 for the X3 with same powertrains), the Sport Activity Coupe delivers a larger hit.

Stage set for World Series finish ANTONIO GONZALEZ
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — Buster Posey was annoyed. Playfully so. The Giants catcher wanted Madison Bumgarner to do more than barely break a smile after a brilliant pitching performance put San Francisco one win from another World Series title. No way, Buster. Because in this postseason full of stars and surprises, who knows? Heck, Bumgarner might still have more work to do. Baseball took its final break yesterday (Oct. 27) before the Giants and Royals settle things. Holding a 3-2 edge, San Francisco will try to claim its third championship in five years tonight when the wildcard matchup resumes at Kauffman Stadium. The day off gave fans a chance to savour what they’d already seen in the past month, and there was plenty — the success of Bumgarner, Lorenzo Cain and Yusmeiro Petit, the struggles of Clayton Kershaw, Mike Trout and Detroit’s aces, a rack of tight games and one that went 18 innings. “Clayton who? MadBum!’’ one man yelled as he exited AT&T Park after the Giants won 5-0
on Sunday night. There could be a lot more cooking in this October oven, too. Maybe Ned Yost even had it right. “Oh, man, somewhere inside of me, secretly I had hoped that it would go seven games for the excitement and the thrill of it,’’ the Kansas City manager said after a loss in Game 4. “Sure looks that way.’’ Perhaps it’s only fitting this Fall Classic ends at Kauffman Stadium, a place hosting playoff baseball for the first time in 29 years. The Royals started this pulsating postseason at home with a 9-8 comeback win in 12 innings over Oakland in the AL wild-card game, a thriller that began on the last day of September and nearly stretched into October. That captivating night in Kansas City set the stage for a month to remember: dramatic finishes, favourites falling and underdogs overachieving, stars slipping and new ones shining. What happens next is anybody’s guess. After all, the last time Game 6 of the World Series came to Kansas
Sabres victorious The Sa-Hali Sabres were victorious at the Neil Salkus Junior Girls Volleyball Invitational Tournament in North Vancouver on the weekend. Sa-Hali beat host Handsworth secondary in straight sets (25-17, 25-16) in the final. The Sabres went undefeated at the 20-team tournament, posting a 4-0 record in round-robin play before knocking off St. Thomas More Collegiate of Burnaby in quarter-final action and Riverside of Port Coquitlam in the semifinal round.
Saints win bronze
The NorKam Saints
Tournament Capital Sports
BRIEFS hosted and finished third at a junior girls’ volleyball tournament on the weekend. Mount Baker secondary of Cranbrook won gold at the 14-team tournament, beating W.L. Seaton of Vernon in the final on Saturday, Oct. 25. The Saints placed first at a tournament held by St. Ann’s Academy on Oct. 17 and Oct. 18, winning seven straight matches.
City, one of the most surreal scenes in baseball history unfolded: first-base umpire Don Denkinger’s botched call serving as the signature moment of the 1985 World Series won by the Royals over St. Louis. “We know we can do it,’’ Royals first baseman Eric Hosmer said. “We’re a confident group. But we can’t do anything without winning Game 6. We’re excited to get back home where we feed off the fans and that energy.’’ Veteran Jake Peavy starts for the Giants against rookie Yordano Ventura — not exactly the matchup many would’ve predicted in April. But the majors’ most notable names during the regular season — Dodgers ace Kershaw and Angels slugger Trout — flamed out fast in the Division Series. A trio of Cy Young winners didn’t do enough for Detroit. Even playoff-proven starter Jon Lester looked lost under October’s bright lights for the oneand-done Athletics. Plus up-and-coming starter
Stephen Strasburg showed he still has to polish his post-season poise for the Nationals. Royals rookie Brandon Finnegan might understand the topsy-turvy nature of these playoffs better than anyone. Only four months after he pitched in the College World Series, the 21-year-old reliever got
two key outs in the seventh inning as Kansas City won Game 3. A night later, Finnegan failed to bridge the gap to the back end of the bullpen, allowing five runs in an 11-4 loss to San Francisco. “Baseball can pick you up quickly,’’ Finnegan said, “and hit you in the gut quickly.’’

with the Canucks on Sunday as Vancouver topped the Washington Capitals 4-2. “That was a rough night,’’ Sbisa said of the game in Colorado. “I didn’t have the best sleep after that. I’m not gonna lie. I was thinking a lot about that game and I knew [Sunday] was a big game for me and for the team.’’ Vancouver will look for its second
straight victory tonight against the Carolina Hurricanes at Rogers Arena. Game time is 7 p.m. On Sunday, Sbisa blasted a shot through traffic at 15:47 of the second period for
Vancouver’s third goal in a 1:47 span to turn a 1-0 deficit into a 3-1 lead. “Every time I score it feels good. The past few years it hasn’t happened that much so it’s even more special,’’ said Sbisa, who joined the Canucks this summer as part of the deal that sent Ryan Kesler to the Anaheim Ducks. “The day you get traded or you join a new team it’s one thing
you look forward to, getting that first goal out of the way. “I’m glad it was tonight.’’ Nick Bonino and Radim Vrbata added a goal and an assist each for Vancouver (5-3-0), while Henrik Sedin also scored. Chris Higgins chipped in with two assists for Vancouver, and Ryan Miller made 20 saves for his fifth win of the season.
Lions book playoff spot SCOTT EDMONDS
THE CANADIAN PRESS
WINNIPEG — The B.C. Lions are playoff bound and dodged a big bullet Saturday night, after quarterback Kevin Glenn went down in the fourth quarter and didn’t return in a 28-23 come-frombehind win over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. “Just a little headache,’’ Glenn said later said of the issue that kept him from completing the game. Backup Jason Beck filled in admirably, with touchdown throws to Ernest Jackson and former Bomber Kito Poblah. “The protocol is to watch when you have a headache . . . No symptoms, no blurriness, just a little headache,’’ said Glenn, suggesting
it wasn’t a concussion. The Lions (9-7) are now guaranteed at least a crossover playoff spot. The Bombers (6-11) were ahead 17-13 at the start of the fourth quarter but their effectiveness was crippled all night by quarterback sacks — 10 of them by the end of the game. “Ten sacks is just a tribute to the whole defence and obviously the coaches,’’ said B.C. head coach Mike Benevides, who gave the game ball to Khreem Smith, who had four sacks. “I’m really proud of our defence. Our defence was playing really well all year long. Today it was rewarded to get the quarterback a few times.’’ Winnipeg quarterback Drew Willy said he knew he was responsible for a
few of those sacks. “I definitely wasn’t decisive enough in getting the ball out of my hands,’’ he said. “I take full responsibility for that.’’ It was the Bombers’ eighth loss in a row and this is the third consecutive season they’ve missed the playoffs, after making a losing appearance in the 2011 Grey Cup. It has taken a toll on attendance, which was just 24,223 Saturday night, with almost 9,000 empty seats. It was also a night of milestones as veteran B.C. kicker McCallum became just the second CFL player to top the 3,000point mark. The Lions are next in action on Saturday, Nov. 1, when they travel to Edmonton to play the Eskimos. Game time is 4 p.m.
Waston heads Whitecaps into post-season JOSHUA CLIPPERTON
THE CANADIAN PRESS
VANCOUVER — Vancouver Whitecaps head coach Carl Robinson faced a tough call at halftime on Saturday, Oct. 25. The Portland Timbers had just beaten FC Dallas 2-0 and Vancouver — which was tied 0-0 with the Colorado Rapids after 45 minutes — needed a win of its own to clinch a Major League Soccer playoff spot. Robinson had banned cellphones in the locker-room to keep his players focused ahead of the match, but was aware of the other score and wanted to make sure his team knew what was on the line. “I had a decision to
let them know at halftime or not,’’ said the Welshman. “I’ve protected them throughout the season but I wanted them to know what we needed to do. “I said ‘Boys, we need to score a goal.’’’ After some tense moments, the Whitecaps responded. Kendall Waston thumped home a header in the 70th minute as Vancouver clinched a post-season berth with a 1-0 victory over Colorado.
The hulking defender flung himself at a Pedro Morales corner kick for a goal his team desperately craved, sending the crowd of 21,000 at B.C. Place Stadium into a frenzy. “It’s a fantastic achievement for the group of players I’ve got in there,’’ said Robinson. “I couldn’t be more proud of them today because we’ve probably been written off a few times this year when things didn’t go our way. In the three years I’ve been here I’ve never experienced the atmosphere I experienced today.’’ Waston only joined the Whitecaps this summer and has been a tower in defence and on set pieces since arriving from a club in
his native Costa Rica. “I was thanking God because it was a nice opportunity to score,’’ said Waston. “That was a big effort from all of my teammates.’’ The Whitecaps finished one point up on Portland for the fifth and final spot in the Western Conference and will now visit Dallas in the No. 4 versus No. 5 one-game playoff tomorrow (Oct. 22). Match time is 6 p.m. Vancouver (12-8-14) finished the schedule with four wins and a draw — including four straight shutouts — to make the post-season for the second time in its MLS existence after first qualifying back in 2012.

Sideroff mum on superstitions From page A24
“Young players like to try to beat people with their hands,” Hay said. “He’s got a great asset in his legs to be able to do that. They fall in love with stick handling and beating people one-on-one instead of protecting the puck and using your strengths, which for him is speed. “He has to use it to get himself and the puck to the net. When he does that, he’s very effective.” Kamloops followed the loss to Brandon on Friday with a 2-0 win in Kennewick, Wash., against the Tri-City Americans on Saturday. Sideroff recorded an assist, which gave him
a six-point lead on 16-year-old teammate Jake Kryski, who has five goals and 11 points. The two rookies have developed a friendly rivalry. “We were close in points before, but I’m kind of pulling ahead,” Sideroff said with a laugh. “We always talk about it. “He was happy for me, but he wanted to get the hatty, too.” Sideroff, who enjoys skiing and wakeboarding when he’s not at the rink, is not without his quirks. “I do have some superstitions and rituals, but I’ll keep that to myself,” he said. Whatever he’s doing seems to be working.

MARY “WINONA” TAVERNA November 8, 1919 – October 21, 2014 With heavy hearts, 2.5 weeks before her 95th birthday, we announce the passing of our beloved sister and aunt, Mary “Winona” Taverna. She is predeceased by her loving husband, Thomas, her son Lloyd, her parents Jack and Ada Wells, her brothers Andy and Alex, and her sister Joan. Winona is survived by her loving niece Alison Wells, her brothers Jim (Lorraine) Wells, John Wells and Charlie Wells, and her sisters Dawn Graham, Beth (Jim) Davidson and Frances (Bill) Fraser, along with numerous nieces and nephews, and the light of her life great-great nephew Shayne Makortoff. She was the eldest of ten children; born in Wellwood, Manitoba. After graduating nursing school in 1943, in Carmen, Manitoba, Winona moved to BC in 1946 where she met Thomas Taverna. They were married in 1947 and she continued nursing in Lytton, BC until their son came in 1957. She lived in Lytton until 1973, moving to South Surrey where she lived until the death of her son Lloyd in 2008. Winona moved to Kamloops, BC where her niece Alison cared for her until she broke her hip in 2013. Winona then resided at Pine Grove Care Centre until her passing with Alison by her side, after suffering a heart attack. A private family graveside service will be held in Lytton, at which time she will be laid to rest beside her husband and son. With Capt. The Rev’d Isabel C. Healy-Morrow officiating.

WILLIAM GEORGE HENRY HEYMAN CECILIA ESTHER
AULIN
(nee Deleon)
Born: June 18, 1933 in Lachine, Quebec, Canada Passed: October 18, 2014 in Victoria, B.C. Canada After a short illness with pancreatic cancer, our beloved husband, father, uncle, grandfather and friend passed away at the Victoria Hospice. He was right in the middle of completing his ‘bucket list’ for the second time. Bill was born in Lachine, Quebec and moved to Vancouver at age 6 and grew up there. He leaves a wife Helen Price, brother Frank Heyman, a sister Janice Donaldson, and his children David Heyman, Deborah Reny (deceased), Bill Heyman, Bradley Heyman, Jennifer Wann (nee Heyman), Kevin Snell (stepchild), Aryn Snell (stepchild), April Heyman and Monte Heyman. He was blessed with many grandchildren, greatgrandchildren, nieces, nephews and various stray children taken into his fold.
Those we love don’t go away They walk beside us every day Though you left sixteen years ago We will remember you always When your life was full of those you valued And who valued you in return Your memory brings us joy and strength every day. Love Always Kelly Aulin Axel Aulin & family Erik Aulin & family Always Remembered Para Siempre
During his long productive life he served in the RCMP, he drove a taxi, he was a real estate appraiser and finally spent the last forty years of his working life as a very successful mortgage broker. But....he loved his retirement. Bill was an avid fisherman, taking many family and friends out onto the ocean with him to chase that ‘big one’. Eventually he did get his 48 1/2 pounder, which he had mounted. When being on a boat became difficult for him he changed his focus to travel. With his trusty wife by his side he circled the earth several times. His particular favourite city was London, which he visited many times. Another favourite spot of his was Maui. He covered every single inch of that island, loving every minute. While at home between travels he loved to garden. Growing things was a huge part of his life. At the age of 77, as all his ‘friends’ can attest to, he discovered facebook. He spent many, many hours finding things on the internet to share with his friends and family. If you want a glimpse into his life just take a look at his time line! The family wishes to thank all the family and friends that made his final weeks so much better with their visits. Family wishes to thank the staff of the sixth floor in the north wing of the Victoria General Hospital; their care was dedicated and amazing. They also wish to thank the incredible people at the Victoria Hospice. Their loving care made this whole experience ‘doable’. In lieu of flowers, we ask that you consider donating to the Victoria Hospice. (www.victoriahospice.org) A Celebration of Bill’s life will take place on Saturday, November 1st, 2014 at 2:00 pm in the Schoening Funeral Chapel.

He was also proud of his military service; he was in the British Royal Air Force and then became a Flight Lieutenant in the Royal Canadian Air Force.

STEVEN CONSTANTINE DUBITZ April 26, 1943 - October 22, 2014 We’re heartbroken to announce the death of our deeply beloved husband, father and brother, Steven Constantine Dubitz. Steve was predeceased by his parents Constantine and Hannah (Aulin) Dubitz, and nephew David Becker. He is survived by his wife Mary DalgarnoDubitz, daughter Kristel (Dave) Dubitz, sister Maxine (Dennis) Mucha, sisters-in-law Betty (Dale) Becker, Eileen (George Carlin) Boscher, numerous aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins. Steve was born in Kamloops. His working career started when he was young, shoveling sawdust, wheat and numerous other tasks for his dad. As a teenager he worked summers taking tourists out for trail rides at Saratoga Resort. In his late teens and early twenties he worked on a paving crew for Dawson Construction. He and his father started their own general contracting company, Stecon Contractors Ltd. Steve’s backhoe, heading to or from a job, was a familiar site on the back roads. Although Chase was his home base, he worked throughout the province blasting and setting power poles, changing rails or ties for the railroad, installing waterlines and septic systems within the region. No job was too big or too small. Steve loved to ‘rattle a person’s chain’, in other words, he was a tease - but in a kindly manner. The one who received the brunt of this razzing was his sister Maxine. In 1986 Steve and Mary met, fell head over heels in love and were married. In 1988 they were blessed with their beautiful ‘gift from God’ and the apple of Steve’s eye, his daughter Kristel. Anyone who knew him knows how proud he was of her. Steve was an avid reader and prospector, in his younger days he loved to have the odd sociable. Steve lived life exactly as he wanted - he had an indomitable spirit and a zest for life that ensured most who came into contact with him walked away feeling uplifted. He was renowned for his smile, kind-heartedness and love of all creatures. He was a strong, gentle man who strove to make everyone’s day a little brighter. He was never impressed by the amount of money a person had, but rather by the strength of their character as a result, he has friends too numerous to count. A memorial and celebration of Steve’s life will be held at the Chase Community Hall on Friday, November 7th at 11:00 am. Online condolences may be sent through Steven’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com Arrangements are in the care of Bowers Funeral Service, Salmon Arm, BC
Beyond Dream’s Edge by Debbi Dickinson Three new children play tonight Naperville, Illinois In a land beyond dream’s edge. Instead of sand, they play with stardust, Getting glitter sprinkles on their hands. Instead of coloring books, They color rainbows For God to place in the sky, His promise to us below. Instead of jumping rope, They jump strands of sunlight, Braided strong by His might, Forever shining bright. Instead of riding bikes, They spread their wings And fly to distant stars, As all the angels sing. Instead of snow slopes, They slide down moonbeams, Iridescent glowing streams, Landing in heavenlygreen. Instead of TV, They watch sunrises, sunsets, And all that transpires in between, Secure that God knows best. Instead of playing ball, They catch the stars Before they fall, Loving the wonder of it all. Instead of bouncing on beds, They bounce on clouds. Their laughter echoes about, Just beyond dream’s edge. We meet at night in prayer. I quietly wait to see them there, Golden haloes on their heads, In a land beyond dream’s edge.

DARK
DALE BASS STAFF REPORTER ORTER dale@kamloopsthisweek.com .com
C
haro Neville, curator of the oops Art Gallery (KAG), Kamloops een focused on a spehas been heme since last spring cific theme l — downtown Kamloops after dark. Specifically, from Oct. 31 to Nov. 8, downtown, after dark, when the gallery presents a free public-art project that is bringing internationally renowned artists to share the space with several of their local counterparts. Luminocity draws its inspiration from Nuit Blanche, an annual cultural event created in France in 1984 and which has been held throughout the world in different
cities at different times in different ways — but all with the goal of celebrating art. The KAG event starts with a Lost Souls parade through the downtown streets that will include zombies walking — or is it shuffling? — a mobile-projection unit that will turn downtown buildings into screens for images and a contingent of bicyclists, their mode of transportation sporting many lights. There are 23 artists involved, each worthy of mention in this story, but, for space sake, Neville recommended: • Cao Fei, “one of the most significant artists in China today” who will present her videos Cosplayers and Whose Utopia at the corner of Fifth Avenue and Victoria Street. Cosplayers, an eight-minute video, combines a surrealistic plot with young people
dressed as game characters who engage in combat within their imaginary world, while Whose Utopia, a 20-minute video, takes a look at the process her homeland is following to integrate itself into the global glob economic system. The work looks at the life of factory workers in the Pearl River delta. • Brian Howell took photographs of what remained inside the Kamloops Daily News building after it closed earlier this year, creating a work of “stunning images, ghostly images,” Neville said, from the collection of chairs sitting empty at the top of a staircase to the empty desks and shelves to the former heart of the newspaper, its press. His works will be in the KDN building facing onto Fourth Avenue.
• At the front of the building will be a work by Ottawa artist Cheryl Pagurek. She’ll be displaying silhouettes of people set against a backdrop of water, a video that will transform the corner into a visual walkway of human journeys one can stand back and observe. Neville said another highlight will be Lumin Haus in Riverside Park, a structure created by local artist Doug Buis that will be home to a variety of video presentations — including one by Kamloops videographer Clarence Jules — and Pink Noise at the Rotary Bandshell, a presentation of the art collective Instant Coffee that will see Vancouver and Kamloops bands take the stage. Neville called it a chill-out place. For more information on Luminocity, go online to kagluminocity.wordpress.com.

he four teens behind Masterpiece Theatre: Redux are working hard to ensure their first presentation in the city’s High Wire Festival remains a secret. All they will say is that the four of them — Kora and Lucas Vanderlip, Isaac Roberge and Katie Newton — have created it collectively, use various media to present it and the audience will be more than passive observers. They, too, will be a part of the presentation, one of
# dtk
four in the Western Canada Theatre festival at the Pavilion Theatre from Wednesday, Oct. 29 to Saturday, Nov. 1. The teens singled out WCT associate artistic director Heather Cant as their “ringleader,” suggesting they work as a collective on the 15-minute production. The four know each other through their involvement with WCT’s Stage One theatre-education program and have been front and centre at Pavilion annually in productions. They agreed they’re excited to share the venue with other more experienced actors like Dusan Magdolen and Kirk Smith, who join Cant to present White
Rabbit, Red Rabbit by Nassim Soleimanpour, along with Randi Edmundson, Jessica Buchanan and Kathleen Dobson, who are in Francine and Frankie B Make Art! and the Saucy Fops in an untitled — as of yet — work by Cayman Duncan. This year, the audience remains together for the Soleimanpour play and then can break into groups and circulate through the other presentations. White Rabbit, Red Rabbit has been described as a deconstruction of the theatrical experience by The British Theatre Guide and groundbreaking by Toronto reviewer Winston Soon. Kora said being accepted
for the festival has provided her with yet another opportunity to further her burgeoning videography interest. For her brother Lucas, he said he’s relishing the chance to again be in front of the camera. They’re looking forward to the reaction of their audiences, Isaac said, noting that, while the story basically remains the same, it will change depending on how the audience interacts with their work. Tickets are $21 for adults and $19 for seniors and students. Tickets are available at the Kamloops Live box office, 1025 Lorne St., 250-374-5483, kamloopslive.ca.

ordon Lightfoot was fighting a cold on Sunday night (Oct. 26) at Sagebrush Theatre. Balled-up pieces of white tissue paper were almost as ubiquitous as the streams of geniusinspired lyrics that rolled off his tongue as the legend played song after song after song of such quality. After the show, after hearing Lightfoot sing The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, Sundown, Rainy Day People and many more songs, one simply has to weep when listening to contemporary radio — yes, the gulf remains that great, even with a sniffling 75-year-old singing the classics. Lightfoot has performed in Kamloops twice, with the first time being just three years ago at Interior Savings Centre, on a cold November night. I was at both shows and Sagebrush is a far better place to hear Lightfoot sing his songs — and he agreed. “This is better,” he told the crowd after reminding the sold-
at both shows and Sagebrush is a “farI was better place to hear Lightfoot sing his songs — and he agreed.” KTW
REVIEW out theatre he had played “the arena” in 2011. And, it was better. Lightfoot’s lyrics remain peerless, but his age (and that pesky cold) do not produce the vocal chords of his prime. Nevertheless, the greatest songwriter Canada has ever produced delivered when it mattered and got stronger song by song. If You Could Read My Mind was particularly powerful, with audience members to the right, the left, behind and ahead of me whisper-singing the song, How could they not? Have more potent lyrics ever been transferred from pen to paper? It was an elegant show, too, with Lightfoot reminding us the concert was not about him, but about the quintet of which he is part — and that quintet was so tight one could hear each instrument distinctive from
another during any given song. Lightfoot’s legacy will live on, if the demographics of Sunday’s crowd is an indication. Yes, there were plenty of people who must have danced to his music when he was in his prime. But, there were also some kids and, yes, at least two babies — one of whom sat right next to me, on his mom’s lap, about as content as could be. It was remarkable how wellbehaved the babies were and, when one next to me did a bit of fussing during one song, Lightfoot took note, thanking the “young fry” for getting touched by the tune. Lightfoot has been performing since 1943, when, as a fiveyear-old, he sang I’m A Little Teapot at a church in Orillia. It took 68 years until he added Kamloops to his tour schedule. Three years later, he returned. Here’s hoping the next visit is spanned by the latter amount of time, not the former.

McLachlan’s voice angelic DALE BASS
STAFF REPORTER
dale@kamloopsthisweek.com
This is the tale of two reviews. One can be succinct and comes courtesy of my husband, who summed up the Sarah McLachlan concert in Kamloops on Thursday, Oct. 23, this way: Interior Savings Centre remains a poor venue that provides lousy acoustics and he would rather have listened to her at Sagebrush Theatre. The other comes from me, who agrees heartily with the
KAMLOOPS THIS WEEK
REVIEW hubby, but would sum up my review this way: Are you kidding me? It’s Sarah McLachlan! That voice will soar in any crappy venue. And indeed, it did. This was a performance of both old and new, songs form her new studio album Shine On and the classics we can all sing along with — and, many did in an ISC that, surprisingly, had a lot of empty seats.
Backed by Joe Shearer on guitar, Jon Evans on bass, Vincent Jones on keyboards and Curt Bisquera on drums, McLachlan in turn played guitar, piano and, during the encore, ukelele — the first instrument she was taught to play at the ripe old age of four. Gifted with what many have called the voice of an angel, McLachlan surrounded herself with a perfect
stage, with strings and circles of lights and panels behind that showed images from above focused on her playing guitar, rippling water and other nonintrusive sights. Favourite moments included Stupid and Brink of Destruction from the new album — and pretty much every other song she and her band performed. Because, after all, it was Sarah McLachlan — and one can only imagine how she will sound when we finally get a decent performing-arts centre.
