The wall supporting the backyard of a home in the neighbourhood east of Pacific Way and north of Aberdeen Drive — across from the former Aberdeen Hills Golf Links — gave way recently and can be seen by those driving up and down Pacific Way.

Group calls for panel-review funding KAPA SAYS ONTARIO ALLOCATION SHOULD BE USED IN AJAX REVIEW CAM FORTEMS STAFF REPORTER cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

The shuttering of a proposed mining project in Northern Ontario should make funding available for a federal joint panel review of KGHM’s Ajax project, according to a Kamloops group opposed to the proposed copper and gold mine south of Aberdeen. The Kamloops Area Preservation Association said it is approaching KamloopsThompson-Cariboo MP Cathy McLeod to push for re-allocation of funding from the Marathon platinum and copper mine, which was proposed for north of Lake Superior. On Oct. 31, the federal government announced it would disband the joint panel review after proponent Stillwater Canada Inc. indicated it would not proceed on the project. The copper and platinum group metals mine was proposed about 10 kilometres from

the town of Marathon on the Trans-Canada Highway. “They could allocate the funds here,” KAPA director John Schleiermacher said. “We need a panel review and the money is there. Get it done.” A panel review is the highest level of environmental assessment, with an independent panel overseeing hearings and reporting finding to government. The Conservative government has consistently rejected the call for a panel review of Ajax, opting to continue with the harmonized federal-provincial comprehensive environmental assessment. Schleiermacher noted Kamloops council has twice passed resolutions asking for a panel review. “We have a town [Marathon] with a population less than 4,000, 10 kilometres from the city,” he said.

Over 500 replacment cars.

“They were appointed a panel review.” Ramsey Hart, program co-ordinator with MiningWatch Canada, said the panel review for the Marathon project was triggered by a plan for tailings to be dumped into a lake home to lake trout — a conservation species in Ontario. That plan was later amended, but concerns remained about surrounding wetland habitat. Bureaucrats from within the federal Ministry of Environment and Department of Fisheries and Oceans recommended the joint panel review for Marathon. “There’s many other projects equally as risky,” Hart argued. “I think the Ajax project is a good example.” Hart said joint panel reviews are typically triggered by some combination of bureaucratic concern and public alarm, rather than on facts such as size or proximity to population or critical habitat, for example.

Kamloops Insider: Taking You Behind The Scenes It doesn’t seem to matter what the news from the “Hall” is, it’s bound to invite criticism and cause controversy. As citizens we often have an opinion on civic matters – water meters and downtown parking come to mind. Kamloops is an engaged city, we’re vocal and we don’t take things lightly. And that’s a good thing. It keeps us on our toes. It makes headlines. What is often missing are stories from our perspective, as told from the inside. Most municipalities offer a newsletter and they fill it with events and notices mostly, maybe a project update or two – but we wanted something different. We are about to launch a newsletter called the Kamloops Insider. To most, City Hall is about politics and taxes – that’s true. But it’s more than that. We also work behind the scenes, away from the limelight. We plow your streets and open the pools and arenas while you sleep. We build parks and awardwinning gardens. Sure, we make mistakes. But we don’t hide from them. We learn from them. This newsletter will share stories of who we are, what happens behind the scenes, how decisions were made and how you can be part of making those decisions. We will write of our successes, and our challenges. We’ll answer questions and write stories you want us to write about - stories that interest you. Our first issue launches tomorrow. Visit www.kamloops.ca/insider to subscribe.

Our mobile-friendly newsletter will be launching tomorrow - stay tuned!

City on track to meet permit estimates ANDREA KLASSEN

STAFF REPORTER

andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com

As 2014 heads into its final stretch, the City of Kamloops is on track to meet its buildingpermit value estimates for the year, City staff have projected about $180 million in permits will go out this year. According to statistics compiled at the end of October, permit value for the year-to-date now sits at more than $171 million, well up from $139 million at this time in 2013. However, chief building official Kundan Bubbar said the city does not expect

Year-to-date data show $171 million in 2014, up from $139 million by this time last year to see any more major increases in permit valuation in the remaining two months of the year. “Usually, the last couple months it slows down because most people want to get things going before the frost gets into the ground,” he said. Bubbar said the city does not expect to hand out any major permits in November or December, though some larger multi-family permits could go out before the end of 2014 or in early 2015. In October, the city

gave out $17 million in permits, mainly for residential projects, which totalled $11.5 million. Single-family homes accounted for most of the permits, with 22 units valued at $7.3 million. Another $1.9-million in permits was doled out for eight duplex units. Bubbar said there has been an overall rise in single-family and duplex home construction in Kamloops this year. So far, the city has handed out 160 singlefamily permits this

year, compared to 112 at this time last year. On the commercial side, permits totalled $5 million, with three institutional projects accounting for $3 million of the total. Comparatively, the city handed out $2.4 million in permits in October 2013. Though the city is well above last year’s numbers overall, the total value of permits handed out this month is down compared to the same month last year. In October 2013,

the city approved 178 permits valued at $22 million. Much of the city’s year-to-date increase in permit value can be

attributed to a booming July, when more than $60-million in permits went out the doors at city hall. Bubbar said the city

NON-PROFIT... SOCIETY... CHARITY... WHAT IS IT? Not all non-profit organizations are societies, and not all societies are charities. What does this mean for your non-profit? A society is a separate legal entity which limits potential liability of its members and directors, but it does not have the same tax benefits of a charity. However, for various reasons, being a charity might not be right for all societies.

Backyard chickens, new farmers’ market site among suggestions Changes to city bylaws to allow backyard chickens, a permanent site for the Kamloops’ Farmers’ Market and alterations to the taxes levied against urban farmers are among the raft of suggestions to improve agriculture within city limits that will go out to the public in 2015. The city plans to begin public consultation on its urbanagriculture plan in January and committee members have drafted a list of potential projects

they consider most important. Also on the list are a seed library and seed bank, changes to city policy to allow trucks to sell local produce in neighbourhoods and an expansion of community-gardening programs in Kamloops. Nelly Dever, council’s representative on the urbanagriculture and food-systems advisory committee, said the committee wants to see how the public responds to its ideas, but also

wants to hear if there are any others they forgot. “Those are the highlights of what’s coming out of that plan but, when we go to the public. it’ll be more, what do you see for waste management, what do you see for distribution, what do you see for education?” Dever said. “Maybe we’re missing something, so we want to see what else the public is going to give us.”

is satisfied with its 2014 numbers. “Peaks and valleys are no good but, right now, we see steady growth,” he said.

OF THE MONTH!

Tram Le Hoang Bao

How and why did you become involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters? I became involved with BBBS last year. The program provides me a chance to work with the children as their mentor. What do you enjoy about the In School Mentoring Program? I like the outdoor activities and getting to understand each child’s personality and characteristics. How often do you see your Little and what do you do? I see my Little once a week, we usually do some fun games, drawing and origami paper. How is this relationship ﬁtting into your life? It is wonderful. We look forward to seeing each other. Who would you recommend this program to? I would recommend this to my friends on campus, and anyone who wants to help kids grow and have fun. How have you and your Little beneﬁtted from the program? He gets so excited about the activities we do together. It is good for both of us to improve our social skills. I have become a much more patient person, which is especially important with children.

Guichon joins call to adopt Lt.-Gov. Judith Guichon is sharing her own experience as an adoptive parent to encourage people to invite the 1,000 young people waiting to join a family in B.C. At an event at the B.C. legislature to declare November Adoption Month, Guichon described her experience adopting four children to live at her Nicola Valley ranch, starting in the late 1970s. The first two were infants and, in 1989, a relative called and asked if Guichon and

her first husband would add a brother and sister then aged three and five. Their mother had two older twin boys and was struggling on her own. “Having always wanted a large family and having lots of resources such as wide open spaces to offer, we didn’t hesitate to say yes,” Guichon said. “I know that we gave these children a great home and, as a mother, I worked to take care of them. “What I never knew is how much they would take care of me. You see, when my children were 20, 16,

15 and 13, we lost their father in an accident. “For a short time after the accident, we were all in survival mode. To say that I would not have endured without my children is not overstating the case.” Children and Family Development Minister Stephanie Cadieux and Representative for Children and Youth Mary Ellen TurpelLafond issued a joint statement, noting 1,300 adoption placements have been found in the past five years — but there are 1,000 more children and teens who are still waiting. “The reality is that

many of the young people in care who are waiting for adoption are school age,” they said. “They may be siblings who need to stay together. Some may have special-placement needs due to difficult early-childhood experiences, prenatal exposure to alcohol or drugs, learning delays or other developmental challenges.” Cadieux launched a social-media campaign for November to promote adoption, including a website at www.1000familiesbc. com with adoptive family profiles and videos.

Hunters driving with loaded guns Pellet Stock Has Arrived! CAM FORTEMS

STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

A recent enforcement campaign by conservation officers found an alarming number of hunters driving with loaded firearms inside their vehicles. Kevin Van Damme, a conservation officer based in Kamloops, said five hunters were caught in the area this month driving with loaded rifles — one of which had the safety off.

“The round was in the chamber and the safety was off,” he said. “Any bump and that round could be discharged.” Van Damme said a loaded gun presents a danger to the hunter, his companion and the enforcement officer as drivers typically scramble to unload the gun after being pulled over. Van Damme acknowledged hunters driving with loaded guns may be doing so in order to get off a

ARTHRITIS

quick shot. However, he added, rules are also in place regarding shooting in proximity to maintained roads and homes. The Conservation Officer Service levied tickets for the offences. Van Damme also said enforcement has turned up instances of hunters falsifying tag information, either claiming a deer was taken by a partner

or that it was shot in another region. That tactic is designed to allow for the killing of two deer this season. Such offences can result in seizure of firearms and charges in provincial court. “In the Interior, there’s a large number of mule-deer days,” Van Damme said. “There’s a lot of pressure on these animals.”

PREPARING TO PAUSE IN MEMORY Remembrance Day services this coming Tuesday will likely feel a little different this year. On Oct. 22, Canadians were shocked when a lone gunman ended the life of Cpl. Nathan Cirillo as he stood guard at the National War Memorial in Ottawa. The gunman, Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, then went to the nearby Parliament buildings and the nation held its breath as he stormed in only metres from parliamentarians holding their weekly caucus meetings. The attack happened two days after two other Canadian soldiers were run down in Quebec by another troubled young man. In the days that followed, veterans and cadets took up Cirillo’s watch at their own local cenotaphs. It was their way of thanking the young reservist for his selfless duty that ended up costing him his life. Investigators worked to determine if the two incidents were linked and perhaps new manifestations of homegrown terrorism. There was also discussion about whether soldiers should wear their uniforms in public. That changes on Tuesday. Veterans, current military personnel, reservists and cadets will pull on their snappy, pressed uniforms, don their caps and berets, pin their medals to their chests and put one last glean on their polished shoes. They will parade down streets across the country to gather in city squares, around cenotaphs and memorials to remember those who served before them and lost their lives. In Kamloops, this will take place in Riverside Park. And we’ll thank them with our applause, handshakes and pats on the back. Because it’s their dedication, hard work and sacrifice that has kept the fright and destruction of war from touching most of our lives directly.

As the election nears . . .

ight days remain between now and the 2014 civic election. With 28 candidates seeking eight seats on council, four people vying for one mayor’s chair and 15 men and women trying to win one of five city seats on the KamloopsThompson board of education, anything can happen when ballots are counted shortly after 8 p.m. on Nov. 15. While there is a general consensus that Peter Milobar is a strong choice to retain his job as mayor of Kamloops, his challengers may want voters to look back on the elections of 2011 and 2008. Both campaigns featured serious surprises in the mayoral races, with Dieter Dudy entering the 2011 race at the last minute. He came within 335 votes of Milobar, the perceived heavy favourite (Milobar garnered 9,391 votes to Dudy’s 9,156). Kamloops might have a different mayor today had two socalled fringe candidates — Brian Alexander and the late Gordon Chow — not run. Results could have been different, too, had more voters trekked to the polling stations. In 2011, there were 65,332 eligible voters in Kamloops, of which 19,442 cast ballots, which equals a turnout rate of 29.75 per cent. In the 2008 election campaign, Terry Lake was a city councillor running for mayor. It was widely assumed Lake would be in a neck-and-neck battle with Al McNair, while Pete Backus was considered third-place material. Despite spending an eyepopping amount of money on his campaign, McNair finished last and Lake coasted to a landslide

MUSINGS victory, his 11,727 votes more than double that of the combined ballot tally of Backus (4,525 votes) and McNair (4,416). The moral of the two election tales is to never presume to know what the electorate will do. We have seen voters surprise us locally in 2005 and 2008. We have seen voters surprise us provincially in May 2013. We should never be surprised that we are surprised. *** There have been a number of candidate forums and there are a few yet to be held, including a North Shore Business Improvement Area mixer tonight at 6:30 p.m. at the North Shore Community Centre. A forum focused on seniors’ issues will be held on Monday at noon at the Desert Gardens Community Centre, while the Kamloops-Thompson Teachers’ Association’s trustee forum will take place on Monday at 6:30 p.m. at the university. The final forum of the election campaign is at Sagebrush Theatre on Thursday, Nov. 13. Hosted by KTW, CFJC-TV and CBC Radio, the 7 p.m. forum will

be staged in two sections. There will be a mayoral Q&A session, featuring queries to the four invited candidates from the media and from the public. A change in format this year will see the 28 councillor candidates at tables in the theatre’s foyer, where voters can meet and greet and quiz all of them. Splitting the forum into these parts was a decision made by KTW, CFJC-TV and CBC Radio, with the goal being to offer the traditional debate among mayoral contenders, while giving voters far better access to speak to councillor candidates about the issues dominating this campaign. *** The policy of this newspaper (and many other newspapers) is that, during an election campaign, letters to the editor from candidates are not accepted for publication. The reason is the letters page is reserved for those readers who wish to criticize, convey kudos or complain about virtually any topic under the sun. It must not be an extension of a candidate’s campaign advertisement or an addendum to a campaign brochure or sign. Last week, while I was away from the office, such a letter was published on the page opposite and it should not have run for reasons noted above. It was a simple mistake — a result of the person laying out the page not being aware of the policy. There is not much that can be done to undo something that has been published, but readers and candidates should know it was indeed an error, one that will not be repeated.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR PICK UP AND KEEP PARK PERFECT Editor: My husband and/or I walk our springer every day in Kenna Cartwright Park. I was there on a recent Sunday, at the same time as the Doggy Romp, which featured so many people and so many dogs. During my hour-long hike with my dog, I didn’t see one dog’s deposit that hadn’t been bagged, waiting for the return collection. The trails were clean and I was impressed. Thank you to that group. Others could learn from them, since a subsequent visit showed the trails were not so clean. We are so blessed to have such a great nature park to hike, bike and run in so close to home. With the city supplying doggy-deposit bags at each entrance, it boggles my mind why everyone doesn’t use them. With winter approaching, it would be great if everyone used those bags offered and helped to keep the snowy trails white. Sandi Whitehead (Clifford) Kamloops

Perhaps a simple way to help “with global warming is to attach emissions converters to politicians to trap the crap coming out of them . . .

A selection of comments on KTW stories, culled online

”

COLUMN ONLY FOGGED UP ISSUE Editor: Re: Tom Fletcher’s column of Nov. 4 (‘Legislation spews hot gas’): I think there is no question information flying around about global warming is confusing, misinforming and worrisome. But, I am not sure if Fletcher helped clear things up or just created a methane fog. Where did Fletcher get the information that [human] exhaled breath is rebranded as pollution? Our personal use of carbon dioxide is roughly carbon neutral. We breathe carbon dioxide in, along with nitrogen and oxygen, and, through the magic of metabolism, send back out

nitrogen, carbon dioxide and a little less oxygen. Thankfully, we are in a happy relationship with plants, which need the waste we breathe out and give us life-sustaining oxygen. We, as a species, physiologically speaking, are not the problem. Maybe the global-warming worriers are wrong. The point is — what if they are right? We do not have another planet to go to if this one burns up (unless we think living on frozen Mars sounds good). For a very long time, Earth has been in balance when it comes to keeping the atmosphere in a state that sustains

all living things. If global warming is real and it threatens that balance, there will come a time when it is too late even for the cleverest and most imaginative scientists to fix the mess. The headline on Fletcher’s column almost got it right, except the title might read, “Legislators spew hot gas.” Perhaps a simple way to help with global warming is to attach emissions converters to politicians to trap the crap coming out of them, as we do in our cars. Better yet, let’s slap a carbon tax on them every time they open their mouths. Mark Hyslop Westsyde

MUCH MORE TO ELECTION (AND LIFE) THAN AJAX MINE Editor: What a joy it was to read all the letters to the editor in yesterday’s edition (Nov. 6) of Kamloops This Week. I am so tired of hearing about the proposed Ajax mine. If the mine is all one is basing their vote on, I feel very sorry for Kamloops and the country as a whole. There are so many more things going on

in Kamloops and across Canada that actually need our support — or at least our attention. It is high time Canadians took some interest in what actually affects them on a day-today basis. When you look at page A3 of yesterday’s paper, a story states Kamloops real estate remains flat. In the 33 years I have lived here, this has always been a fact of life.

Kamloops always lags behind the rest. I don’t know why, as this, to me, is the best city in Canada in which to live. So, congratulations to Ken, Jane, Vince, Jim and the speak-up section for the letters and comments and the thought that went into them. Lorne Tippe Kamloops

Top of McGill gets city council approval City council has given its stamp of approval to a development that hopes to attract high-end resource and trades companies to Kamloops. Top of McGill Holdings wants to build a mix of residential units and light-industrial and commercial space at 1452 McGill Rd., which it purchased from the city in 2013. Co-owner Frank Quinn told

City Council

BRIEFS KTW last month the goal of the project is to attract companies that would work with Thompson Rivers University’s trades and technology department. Top of McGill spokesman

Steve DuMont said the c ompany plans to spend $20 million over three years to transform the 2.7-acre property. At a public hearing on Tuesday, Nov. 4, council voted unanimously to rezone the property from industrial park to comprehensive-development area, and to amend the official community plan to allow residences in the area.

Get ready for bridge work Rehabilitation of Overlanders Bridge won’t begin until the spring of next year, but the City of Kamloops is hoping it can prepare the public for the major disruption on its central river crossing well in advance. Public works director Jen Fretz said the city will hold its first open house next month. “It’ll be more of an information session, telling people what it’s like and encouraging them to take alternate routes, alternate modes of transportation, taking about the expectations around wait times and those sorts of things,” she said.

What the event won’t be geared toward is taking public suggestions. “There aren’t than many things we can do differently on the project,” Fretz said, “so it doesn’t make a ton of sense to go gather a bunch of public feedback when there’s really not much we can do differently.” Fretz said the city hopes to offset some issues by doing, as much as possible, work at night or during non-peak driving hours. “But, this is probably the biggest capital project we’ve undertaken at the city of a

number of years, so there will be impacts to the public and that’s something we definitely want to get ahead of.” A similar open house is planned for 2015, after the project has been tendered. Work on the bridge is expected to start in April and run for five to six months. Rehabilitation will cost the city more than $9 million. In addition to the bridge deck, construction crews will also repair the sidewalk on the west side of the bridge, which has begun sloughing concrete onto the road below.

Coun. Pat Wallace recused herself from the debate, citing a perceived conflict of interest.

MORE HOMES IN BROCK The Brocklehurst portion of Tranquille Road is another step closer to a new 20-unit townhome development after council gave its blessing to a

rezoning application for 2648 Tranquille Rd. Arjan Khun Khun had applied to rezone the lot from commercial to low-density multifamily. City staff supported the proposal because the area is close to shopping, parkland and other residential amenities. Council voted unanimously to support the application.

ROCKY MOUNTAIN RANGERS READY TO WELCOME PUBLIC The Rocky Mountain Rangers primary reserve regiment is hosting an open house tomorrow (Nov. 8). The event will take place between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. at the J.R. Vicars Armoury at 1221 McGill Rd. Those attending will be able to try the small-arms trainer, get a hands-on experience with modern and vintage military weapons and see soldiers rappelling from the roof of the armoury. Visitors will also learn about the Canadian Armed Forces, Canadian Armed Forces Reserves and the

Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corp., and talk with soldiers of every level of experience, from junior members to veterans of the conflicts in Bosnia and Afghanistan. Coffee and snacks will be available in the main gymnasium and beer or other beverages will be available in the licenced mess facility. The Rocky Mountain regiment is the only infantry regiment in the Interior of B.C. and the only unit in the province that specializes in mountain operations and winter warfare.

Americans still seeking vengeance MARTY HASTINGS

STAFF REPORTER

sports@kamloopsthisweek.com

If the U.S. and Canada square off tomorrow (Nov. 8) in the final of the Four Nations Cup, the Stars and Stripes will be looking for revenge — again. It seemed the Americans were going to avenge a heartbreaking 3-2 overtime defeat in the gold-medal game at the Sochi Olympics in Four Nations roundrobin play against Canada on Wednesday, but late-game heroics from Haley Irwin and Rebecca Johnston kept that from happening. Irwin and Johnston scored 46 seconds apart late in the third period to secure a 3-2 win for Canada and send about 5,000 fans into a frenzy at Interior Savings Centre. “If you watch the gold-medal game in the Olympics, you’d understand how tough it is to come so close and come up short,” American forward Hilary Knight told KTW after the game. “They got a better bounce than we did and we didn’t put the puck in the net when we should have.” Johnston’s game-winning marker, a power-play goal at 15:49 of the third period, was her second of the night. Dani Cameranesi and Shiann Darkangelo scored for the U.S. Cameranesi and Canadian forward Jamie Lee Rattray are tied for the tournament scoring lead, with three points after two games. Genevieve Lacasse, who is likely to don the Maple Leaf between the pipes on Saturday, backstopped Canada to victory on Wednesday, making 30 saves, 16 of them in the third period. Alex Rigsby stopped 18 shots for the U.S. in a losing effort. At 2-0, Canada is a safe bet to play in the championship game,

which gets underway at 7 p.m. tomorrow at ISC. Round-robin play wraps up today, with a 1 p.m. game between Sweden (0-2) and the U.S. (1-1) at 1 p.m. and Canada playing Finland (1-1) at 7 p.m. Canadians beware if the favoured U.S. can dispose of Sweden and advance to the final — the Americans were the better team on Wednesday. “We played a great game,” U.S.

head coach Ken Klee told reporters. “When you outshoot somebody 16-5 in a period, you usually don’t give up two and don’t get any.” To the credit of the Canadians, they were able to pounce when the Americans did take their foot off the gas late in the third. “We seem to always be behind in the third period, but we have the confidence,” Johnston said. “We just like to play Canadian hockey. We won’t stop until the very last second.” Knight, who was on the U.S. team in Sochi, said Irwin’s gametying goal — a tilt-a-whirl back-

The rosters might have been different, but the result was the same — a 3-2 come-from-behind victory for Canada. Knight and the Americans, should they take care of business today, will be looking for a different outcome in the gold-medal game, when it matters most. “I just want to win the tournament,” Knight said. “It doesn’t matter who we’re playing — Finland, Sweden or Canada — we want to win.”

Ryan Rishaug and Earl Seitz have more in common than just spending a great deal of time in the Interior Savings Centre press box in the mid-1990s. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The day we hired Ryan Rishaug at CFJC, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll never forget him coming in and saying, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not going to be here very long because Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to work for TSN,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Seitz told KTW. The media man from Edmonton got his start in the business at CFJC-TV in 1998 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and it was Seitz who opened the door for him. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Earl had a huge hand in my broadcasting career,â&#x20AC;? said Rishaug, who is in Kamloops this week doing play-by-play for TSN at the Four Nations Cup, the third-most prestigious tournament in womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hockey. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The biggest thing about broadcasting is you just got to get in somewhere and you need to catch a break. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Earl Seitz, whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now been in this market for 40 years, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the one that gave me my break.â&#x20AC;? Rishaug recorded five goals and 11 points in 46 regular-season tilts with the WHLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Kamloops Blazers in the 1995-1996 campaign. The right-wingerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s journey on ice was cut short by a back injury in 1996-1997. He appeared in one game that season. Rishaug took jabs at his own hockey career in an interview with KTW, saying he â&#x20AC;&#x153;spent a lot of time up here in the press box watching Jarome Iginla play,â&#x20AC;? due to injury or being a healthy scratch. In fairness, there were some bright spots in his brief tenure with

I got a couple goals in the playoffs, too. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After sitting out for an entire series, [head coach Ed Dempsey] decided to put me in and I scored in back-toback games.â&#x20AC;? He had two goals in seven playoff games in 1996. The Spokane Chiefs bounced the Blazers from the playoffs in the Western Conference final, winning the series in six games. Rishaug, who has

Rishaug said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My mom has audio tapes of me at seven years old pretending to be John Short on the radio with my own sports-talk show in Edmonton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was that kid.â&#x20AC;? He hung up his skates in 1997 and enrolled immediately in the media-and-communications program at the British Columbia Institute of Technology in Burnaby. After one year of the two-year program, he got word there was a position open at CFJC. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They brought me in and I did a test read and they thought it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t horrendous,â&#x20AC;? Rishaug

said with a laugh. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rather than go back for a second year of broadcasting school, Earl took a chance on me, even though I only had one year of training.â&#x20AC;? Sixteen years later, after making pitstops across the nation and climbing the Canadian sports TV ladder, the 37-yearold is the Edmonton bureau reporter for Sportscentre. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a guy who knew what he wanted. He went after it. He got it,â&#x20AC;? said Seitz, who hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t aged a day since the mid-90s, according to Rishaug. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He had to go through some of the tourist destinations to get there, but it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take him very long,â&#x20AC;? Seitz continued. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think I contributed a whole lot to that success, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to know he came through here and went on to realize what he had as a dream. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice that we were a part of that.â&#x20AC;?

WolfPack open CIS basketball campaign tonight at TCC ADAM WILLIAMS

STAFF REPORTER

adam@kamloopsthisweek.com

It’s not going to be a perfect season for the TRU WolfPack women’s basketball team but, by the end of the year, the club is hoping it will be in the thick of the playoff hunt. “We’re young. We’ve got six kids in their first and second years,” said head coach Scott Reeves. “But, we’re talented young, so they’re picking up the offence quickly. They’re a hardworking group, there’s good character here. I like the future, but not too far down the road. “I think we’re going to have a good season this year.” After a 6-4 preseason, the WolfPack are itching to get into some meaningful game action. This weekend will be the time, as the Pack tees off its first regularseason matches. TRU will face the University of Northern British Columbia Timberwolves at the Tournament Capital Centre. Games will go tonight (Nov. 7) at 6 p.m. and tomorrow at 5 p.m. There will be plenty new to the WolfPack this season — as Reeves said, the team is young. Only five members of the 12-person roster have more than two years of experience. The team also has a solid core of returning players. Jorri Duxbury, who led the team in scoring (13.8 points per game), assists (4.1), steals (2.3), blocked shots (0.8) and minutes (34.5), is returning to run the offence as point guard. Taiysa Worsfold, who trailed only Duxbury in scoring, averaging 13 points per game, and led the team in rebounds (6.2), will share the offensive burden. Then there’s Kassie Colonna. Colonna studied under Diane Scheutze, one of the WolfPack’s most dominant players in recent history, and

MUG SHOTS CRIMES OF THE WEEK 6 MOUNTAIN BIKES TAKEN Sometime overnight on Thursday October 6, suspects broke into a locked shed and took 6 mountain bikes worth thousands of dollars. The suspects entered the yard of a private residence, went to the shed at the back of the property, forced open the lock and took the bikes. There is no doubt that the suspects knew the bikes were in the shed, as nothing else was taken, these bikes were not in view for the public to see. The bikes are described as follows: a black Specialized P3, Demo 9 downhill, bright orange Kona Stink, a black Brodie Demon, a red and black Brodie Devo and a blue Norco Manic. The good news is all the serial numbers have been recorded by the police and will remain on the computer system until they are recovered These bikes may come up for sale in the area. This would be the time to do the right thing and report this crime anonymously, no names, no statements, just your information will be used.

will work from the post position. Reeves is hoping the forward can take her game to the next level. “Kas is definitely going to be a staple for us because she’s now got experience,” he said. “Even though she’s in her third year of eligibility, she sat a year, so she’s fourth-year age. She’s coming into her own, in terms of being in the post, being able to finish. She’s going to be a good post defender for us. She can run the floor. “And Jorri, as our fifth-year point guard, that’s a nice combo when you’ve got a centre and you have a point guard that veteran and experienced.” Guards Sydney Williams and Sarah Malate will also be expected to contribute heavily for TRU. Williams was the Canada West’s rookie of the year last season, while Malate led the team in three-point field goal percentage (.338). Also new to the WolfPack is the arrangement of the divisions in the Canada West. TRU is a part of the

Explorer Division and will play its regular-season basketball against MacEwan University, Mount Royal University, UBC-Okanagan, University of the Fraser Valley and UNBC. The top three teams from the Explorer Division will join the top seven teams from the Pioneer Division, which includes the conference’s long-time members, in the Canada West post-season. Reeves said Edmonton’s MacEwan and Fraser Valley will pose the greatest challenges for the Pack this season. But, to reach its goals, TRU will have to find a way to come out on top. “A goal of ours, for sure, is to host our firstever playoff game,” Reeves said. “To do that, we have to win our division.”

WolfPack men

The Oct. 30 edition of KTW featured a preview story on the WolfPack men’s basketball team that can be found online at kamloops this week.com. TRU’s men play UNBC tonight at 8 p.m. and tomorrow at 7 p.m.

Thieves continue to target the light industrial area of Kamloops and the surrounding areas. Sometime between Friday, October 31 and Monday November 3, suspects broke into a locked compound and took a white 20 foot Interstate commercial trailer from a yard on Richardo Road. These suspects will look around the areas during the day, then come back in the cover of darkness and steal what they want. This time it was a commercial trailer.

Contractors or the property owner must be aware to prevent these theft from occurring; methods include the installation of surveillance cameras in the yard, motion yard alarms and locking trailer hitches. These thieves must be stopped and will continue to steal until they are prevented from committing the thefts. If you have any information regarding this theft or any other thefts, please contact Crime Stoppers. You will receive a cash

reward upon the arrest of the suspects.

TIRES TAKEN OFF TWO VEHICLES Brazen thieves have taken tires from two vehicles in the Juniper Ridge area sometime overnight on Thursday October 30. The suspects knew what they were doing when they targeted two Ford pickup trucks that were parked in front of the residences. The first theft took place on Skeena Drive, in both cases the suspects jacked up the vehicle, removed the tires with the rims, lowered the vehicle down onto wooden blocks. The second theft was

on Omenica Drive, with the same results, rims and tires taken and the vehicle left on blocks. These thieves would have needed a vehicle to transport the tires and no doubt the tires were rolled away from the residence to the suspect vehicle. Locking wheel nuts will help deter the these thieves from taking your rims and tires. It is a very good possibility that someone may have seen the tires being removed or someone rolling the tires down the street.

This is your opportunity to remain anonymous and report any information you may have on this theft.

‘Caps Teibert back with Leafs’ Ashton will sit 20 games Canada, but no Akindele NHL DISCIPLINE

NEW YORK — Toronto Maple Leafs forward Carter Ashton was suspended for 20 games without pay by the NHL after failing a drug test. Ashton said in a statement released through the players’ union that he inadvertently ingested clenbuterol, a prohibited substance, through an inhaler during an asthma attack at practice in late August. He said he used another athlete’s inhaler twice and “incorrectly assumed that there were no problems’’ with the device. Ashton added he wasn’t seeking an “athletic advantage or to knowingly violate’’ the drug program. He said his team doctor has since diagnosed his exerciseinduced asthma and he has been prescribed an inhaler. “As a professional hockey player, I recognize that I am responsible for what I put into my body and I will not appeal my suspension,’’

Ashton said in the statement. “While I am extremely disappointed that I have CARTER let my teamASHTON mates, our fans and the Maple Leafs organization down, I will work very hard during my suspension to stay in game shape so that I can help out the team when I am able to return.’’ The suspension will cost Ashton $169,185. He failed to record a point in three games with the Maple Leafs this season. Maple Leafs president Brendan Shanahan said in a statement the organization supports the drug program and the decision to suspend Ashton. Ashton is the third player suspended under the NHL/ NHLPA policy, following Sean Hill in 2007 and Zenon Konopka in May. — The Canadian Press

NEIL DAVIDSON

THE CANADIAN PRESS

TORONTO — Vancouver Whitecaps midfielder Russell Teibert rejoins the Canada fold after a year’s absence for a soccer friendly against Panama on Nov. 18 in Panama City. But rising FC Dallas star Tesho Akindele declined his invitation. Teibert is one of 12 MLS players in coach Benito Floro’s 23-man squad. The players will assemble Sunday, Nov. 9, at a camp in Orlando before heading to Panama on Nov. 16 in advance of the game at Estadio Rommel Fernandez. Panama is ranked 56th in the world, compared to No. 122 for Canada. “It’s another important game for us because we need to continue improving our tactical play and we are going to play against a very good team that has an experienced coach

(Hernan Dario Gomez),’’ Floro said in a statement. “It’s a very good, organized team on the pitch with a good tactical sense both in attack and defence.’’ The Canadian Soccer Association said Akindele initially agreed to join the Canadian camp, but then withdrew. The organization did not say why. Dallas plays at Seattle on Tuesday in the return leg of their MLS Eastern Conference semifinal. Floro spoke to the Dallas coach Oscar Pareja in September, with the two agreeing to let the player stay with his MLS club to continue getting playing time with the knowledge that the Canadian staff was following his progress, a CSA spokesman said. Akindele was born in Calgary to a Canadian mother and Nigerian father and lived in Canada — with stops in Toronto and

Winnipeg — until he was eight. His father, a financial analyst who also has Canadian citizenship, moved the family to Colorado for work. The 22-year-old Akindele, who scored seven goals during the MLS regular season, is reportedly in the process of obtaining his U.S. citizenship, although spokesmen for FC Dallas and U.S. Soccer were not sure whether he had got it already. Teibert, 21, was last summoned a year by Floro for games against the Czech Republic and Slovenia. He came on in the 60th minute on Nov. 15 against the Czechs, winning his seventh cap. The Canadian men lost 1-0 to third-ranked Colombia last time out. Canada ended a 16-game winless streak in September with a 3-1 win over Jamaica in Toronto. Floro’s team tied

Bulgaria and Moldova earlier in 2014. The Canadian coach said the game in Panama will challenge his players. “We are going to play away in their stadium against another good team but it’s good for us because we need to test our level in these situations,’’ said Floro. “We need to focus on continuing improving our pressing and to increase our attack because in the last game [against Colombia], our attack was not as good as we can do.’’ Floro’s squad includes veterans Atiba Hutchinson, Julian de Guzman, Dwayne De Rosario, Lars Hirschfeld and Patrice Bernier. But there is also plenty of youth in Bryce Alderson, Kyle Bekker, Ashtone Morgan, Karl W. Ouimette, Jonathan Osorio and Maxim Tissot. It’s the first senior callup for Tissot, a defender with the Montreal Impact.

Remember me when no more day by day You tell me of our future that you planned: Only remember me; you understand It will be late to counsel then or pray. Yet if you should forget me for a while And afterwards remember, do not grieve: For if the darkness and corruption leave A vestige of the thoughts that once I had, Better by far you should forget and smile Than that you should remember and be sad.

Dorothy Wanetta Babcock was born in Fort William, Ontario, on December 31, 1924 to Wilf and Hazel Rutherford. She was their oldest daughter and sister to Peter, Bob, Lyndell, Mary and Helen. Dorothy was an exemplary role model to her siblings and was the female trail blazer of the family. She graduated from nursing in 1946 and received many honours and awards over the course of her career including the Woman of Distinction in Kamloops.

It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden and unexpected passing of Borko (Bob) Hajdukovich on Saturday, November 1, 2014 in the Royal Inland hospital with his loving family at his side.

During her 36 year nursing vocation she was a teacher and pioneer for the advancement of women in the health industry. She was the first female administrator and supervised the 198 bed Banfield Pavilion facility. She was a huge advocate for the dignity, care and quality of life for geriatric patients in that centre at Vancouver General Hospital.

Borko (Bob) was born in Kamloops, B.C. on January 12, 1937. He was raised on the farm in Brocklehurst by his parents and continued working on the farm after their passing. Bob graduated from Kamloops Senior Secondary School. Following graduation he worked briefly on the railroad before going to Canada Post in Kamloops where he worked as a mail sorter and postal clerk for over 30 years. Upon retirement he carried on farming with his brother Nick until 2006. He then moved to another area of Brocklehurst where he enjoyed a smaller yard but still had his garden.

She had a lust for life and adventure. She worked at Bralorne at the Pioneer Mining Camp where she met John over dinner and a laugh about peas rolling around on her plate. From there it was marriage and a move to Silver City, New Mexico for work and the expansion of the family which included Lyndell Olivia, Edward Carlton, Rebecca Jane and Lourine Wanetta. After a few years there, the family moved to Alaska then finally settled in Vancouver where they raised their children and worked until retirement. After sailing around the waters of Vancouver Island for relaxation and a hobby, Dorothy and John decided to expand their horizons and sailed the South Pacific, Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea for eight years in a 40 foot sloop before returning to Canada. They settled in Kamloops where they lived for the past 24 years. During that time Dorothy worked at the BC Cancer Society – Screening Mammography Program and worked diligently to get the mobile unit to fruition and volunteered at the Farmers Market over the summer months. Dorothy was a hard-working, dedicated, strong willed, vibrant, energetic and caring person. She had a great sense of community, a good sense of humour, old fashioned values and morals, and appreciated the outdoors and all its wonders. She tackled life with determination, fortitude and fearlessness and was a strong role model for her children. Dorothy was delivered by a doctor who was called away from a New Year’s Eve Party dressed in a top hat, tux and tails and passed away on October 31 with fireworks! Our mother, sister, aunt, grandmother, great grandmother and friend will be dearly missed but we take comfort in the fact that mom and her “Cap’n John” can sail the cosmos together now! We would like to give our sincerest appreciation to all the staff at Orchard Grove at the Overlander Care Facility. The care and compassion you gave to our mother will never be forgotten.

CIVIC ELECTION 2014 TRUSTEE VOTE ITâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S ELEMENTARY: THIS WATSON NOT LINKED TO THAT WATSON

Gerry Tallon, wife Nancy and Nancy Leake headed in yesterday (Nov. 6) to cast ballots at the advance polling station at Heritage House in Riverside Park. One more advancevoting day is set for Wednesday, Nov. 12. The civic election will be held on Saturday, Nov. 15.

Incumbent trustee Gerald Watson wants to clarify that he is not related to fellow board of education candidate Christine Watson. Gerald Watson felt the matter had to be addressed in the interest of fairness. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If my supporters think we are connected, odds are some of my opponents do as well,â&#x20AC;? he said, noting several voters assumed he and candidate Christine Watson were brother and sister. Adding to the possible confusion is the fact one of Gerald Watsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 10 nominators is also named Christine Watson.

Advance numbers double those of 2011 CAM FORTEMS

STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a strong start for the Kamloops civic election. On the first day of advance polling for this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s council, mayoral and board of education races, more than double the number of

voters cast their ballots than during the first day of advance voting in 2011. Stephanie Nichols, deputy corporate officer for the City of Kamloops, said 668 people cast votes on Wednesday, Nov. 5, compared to 322 during the first day of

advance polling in the 2011 elections. Nichols said the presence of the Four Nations Cup downtown may have brought more people to the advance poll on Lorne Street. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But, I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also the buzz in the community, which is great,â&#x20AC;?

VOTE

she said. While numbers were not available for yesterdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s advance poll, Nichols said reports from the polling station suggested a steady turnout. The general public still has one more chance to vote early. A final day of

advance polling runs on Wednesday, Nov. 12 from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. at Heritage House, 100 Lorne St. Thompson Rivers University students and faculty get their own advance poll on Thursday, Nov. 13. That poll runs on campus from 10 a.m. to

2 p.m. Nichols said the city will also send a mobile polling unit to a number of care homes and retirement residences, as it has done in previous municipal elections. General election day is Nov. 15, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Media forum KTW, CFJC-TV and CBC Radio are hosting a forum on Thursday, Nov. 13, at Sagebrush Theatre. The 7 p.m. event will include a meetand-greet with council candidates and a Q&A session with mayoral contenders.

LOCAL NEWS

A makeover for St. Paul’s Roll of Honour CAM FORTEMS

STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

he colours were gone, faded like memories of the Great War

itself. There are nearly 200 names — Batchelor, Tunstall and Bostock are just three of the most recognizable. They are the young men who went to Europe and died in places including Passchendaele and Vimy Ridge, and they have been given new life in the restored roll of honour being rededicated this weekend in St. Paul’s Cathedral downtown. While timing of the restoration, on the 100th anniversary of the First World War, appears divinely inspired, the effort started with a parishioner at St. Paul’s Cathedral. “It took a parishioner to sit in a different spot and say, ‘That’s fading — we should do something,’” said Louise Peters, dean and rector of the downtown Anglican church. The faded roll of honour at the rear of the cathedral has hung there for as long as anyone can remember, perhaps since 1924, the year the church was moved to this location. Peters said the intention from the start was to move carefully on the project, respecting the age of the artwork and the fact St. Paul’s is the garrison church of Kamloopsbased Rocky Mountain Rangers. The first thought was the roll of honour was too far gone, too sun- and acid-damaged to recover. A reproduction was likely. But church officials found Calgary calligrapher Renate Worthington, whose art and interpretation allowed restoration and colour to its otherwise sepia-toned canvass. In a report to the church, Worthington

B.C. celebrates 10 years of plates honouring vets The province is celebrating a decade of commemorative licence plates honouring Canadian veterans in British Columbia. Since the program launched in 2004, on the 60th anniversary of D-Day, more than 50,000 veterans have been recognized with the licence plates. The commemorative licence plates are available to veterans who served during wartime or in a postwar capacity in the Second World War, Korea, the Gulf War or Afghanistan. Veterans who served during a North Atlantic Treaty Organization or United Nations operation, including members of the RCMP and municipal police, are also eligible. In September 2012, the program was expanded to include

More than 50K issued actively serving Canadian Forces members who hold a trade qualification. The B.C. Veterans Commemorative Association (BCVCA) presented the idea for a licence-plate program to the province 10 years ago as a way to ensure the contributions of Canada’s service men and women are never forgotten. BCVCA’s volunteer

Second World War and Korean War veteran members administer the program on behalf of the provincial government and partner with the Royal Canadian Legion to process some of the applications. The plates depict the National War Memorial in Ottawa and the red poppy synonymous with remembrance across Canada.

Louise Peters, dean of the downtown St. Paul’s Anglican Parish, stands with the newly refurbished Roll of Honour. The faded plaque was sent off to a Calgary caliigrapher to be brought back to its original glory.

BE THERE A re-dedication is planned for Sunday, Nov. 9, at St. Paul’s at 11:45 a.m. Both Rocky Mountain Rangers and Royal Canadian Legion have been invited. The short ceremony is open to the public.

said she originally planed to redo the entire roll of honour on fresh paper, tracing the names and artwork. But she thought names were still legible — though some initials were hard to make out — so she decided to try the original. She dusted the scroll with a microfiber cloth

and cleaned it with an eraser. “The spacing remained exactly as the original artist had it, but I had to work “upside down” for some of these letters,” Worthington wrote, “because the scroll needed to be flat and its size made it difficult to work facing the letters.” She used the Rocky Mountain Rangers regimental banner as the inspiration for colours of the maple leaves on the border. The names “are exactly as they would have been written by the lettering artist a century ago,” she wrote. In addition to the refurbishment, it is now

fitted with archival glass to protect it from age. While the intent of the artwork for the church was clear — to remember boys from home who died in the Great War — much of the rest is educated guesswork. Names that are shaded were likely members of the church — evidenced by memorials to some hung elsewhere in the cathedral. While the artist’s name is lost, as well as its history, restoration of the roll of honour ensures the men who went away to Europe and never came back won’t be forgotten in this little corner of St. Paul’s Cathedral.

ALL PROCEEDS WILL GO TO HELP THESE THREE FAMILIES IN NEED.

upon it all, I wondered about a lock with the names “Leanne and Larry” upon its golden face — it had been professionally engraved before being permanently placed on the fence. Larry got in touch with me and put the person — and the love story — to the lock. He updated me on other locks that were added to the public display of affection because he frequented the location on occasion. It’s the reason he noticed when they all disappeared. Like a sudden and heart-wrenching end to a love story, when visiting that same spot on the pathway, you wouldn’t even know they had ever been there. Without notice and without warning, the love locks were — are — gone. As I initially wrote, I hoped the idea would take off and become a charming public place in our recently upgraded park, to wander and wonder about love in Kamloops. I recommended the city get behind the art from the heart by putting up signage to tell the story of the locks. But, cupid didn’t strike at city hall.

Perhaps it’s the reason the love locks are gone today. Perhaps it’s not. It all weighed heavy on my heart. Who removed them? Why? Was it on purpose? Did the city order them away like garbage or graffiti? Did love locks not fit within the confines of the KamPlan? Were they cut down with no thought of the hearts that would break as a result? I spoke with the parks department, responsible for that city area. The supervisor hadn’t known the love locks were there, and he didn’t know they were taken down. He doesn’t believe his people are behind it. It’s heartbreaking to consider Leanne and Larry’s lock will likely be gone forever because that is the opposite of its intention But, it’s not time to break up with the idea just yet. Shawn Cook, parks supervisor with the city, suggested that if someone had an idea for the love locks, that they step forward and discuss it with the city. He said the city

would meet with them to discuss the best place to get this going again, possibly even at that same place. “I don’t think it’s a problem at all, that location,” Cook said. “That’s a good section to do it.” It’s still unknown what happened to Leanne and Larry’s lock. Or Brian and Alyssa’s lock. Or the other thoughtful expressions clasped to the fence overlooking the intersection of the North and South Thompson rivers. Perhaps it was vandalism. Perhaps it was a spiteful lover, tainted by the memory. Perhaps it was the city. Who knows? But, I hope new locks somehow make their way to the walkway between Riverside Park and Overlanders Bridge. Maybe Larry can give it another chance — another gesture — and bring the love back again.

STAFF REPORTER

f challenged to describe a Tokyo Police Club (TPC) song, lengthy isn’t the word most of the Newmarket, Ont. outfit’s fans would reach for first. Until recently, it was rare for a TPC track to top three and a half minutes. Many got the job done faster — cramming crunchy guitar riffs, jangling tambourines, pop hooks and lead vocalist David Monk’s throaty vocals into two-minute bundles of raw rock and roll. A nearly nine-minute song would have been unthinkable. These days, the

ON STAGE

It’s also the end result of three years of writing, a change in itself for a band that put out its first three releases in four years. That added time seems to have leaked into the songs themselves and not just the monster track at the head of the disc. “The songs are a little bit more breathable,” said Hook. “They’re not your two-minute, packed to the brim with tons of energy, almost too hectic to really focus. “They are a little bit more spaced out and there’s a groove you can fall into.” For Hook, the more tuneful, less frenetic

sound is a logical next step for the group. While he admits the album’s major single, Hot Tonight — a bouncy tribute to staying out all night — might have been deemed “too poppy” a few albums back, the band has embraced the perks of writing pop music. “It’s fun,” he said. “Pop music’s fun, and it’s not ‘just a pop song.’ “There’s a lot of interesting stuff you can do with it.” Though the album came out in March, Tokyo Police Club’s latest tour — which comes to Kamloops on Nov. 16 — is its first for the new album in Canada.

NATIONAL NEWS

Harper kicks off trip to China to focus on economic issues LEE-ANNE GOODMAN

THE CANADIAN PRESS

HANGZHOU, China — Prime Minister Stephen Harper arrived in China yesterday (Nov. 6) to begin a four-day visit that will focus largely on building closer economic ties to Canada’s No. 2 trading partner. On a mild, hazy night, Harper and his wife, Laureen, were greeted at the Hangzhou airport by

Liang Liming, vice-governor of the Zhejiang province, and other dignitaries. The prime minister is leading a delegation of Canadian business representatives today in Hangzhou, a fast-growing industrial metropolis south of Shanghai, before heading to the Chinese capital on the weekend. Those in his entourage include Canadian pork, beef and grain

producers, officials from financial-services companies and mining and oil and gas firms. Industry Minister James Moore and International Trade Minister Ed Fast are also along for the trip. In Hangzhou, Harper is scheduled to meet with the Zhejian province party secretary, as well as the province’s governor. The city presents opportunities for Canadian small-

and medium-sized businesses to tap into China’s exploding middle class. Canada has a trade deficit with China of approximately $31 billion. The Conservative government is aiming to increase exports to China to help balance trade. Harper is expected to make a trade-related announcement in the city.

As well, he’ll pay a visit to the Hu Qing Yu Tang Museum of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Studies have shown increasing numbers of Canadians, almost 75 per cent according to some estimates, use alternative or complementary medicines, including traditional Chinese medicines. Harper will also meet with Jack Ma, executive chairman

2 from every ticket sold will beneﬁt “The Breast Cancer Research Foundation”

of Alibaba Group, the world’s largest mobile commerce company, to discuss how Canadian businesses can leverage e-commerce platforms like Alibaba to grow their businesses internationally. In Beijing on Saturday, Harper will meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping, who has called for a more open form of government since taking office in 2012. A senior government official said Harper will raise China’s humanrights record during their discussions. But, the biggest announcement of the trip is expected to be a deal on a so-called currency-hub designation for Canada. That pact would make Canada the first country in the Americas to have an offshore hub for the yuan, also known as the renminbi. Hubs are currently located in Hong Kong, Singapore, Seoul, Tapei, London, Paris, Frankfurt, Luxembourg and Sydney. The designation essentially allows for faster, more secure execution of trades into the Chinese currency. Authorized by China’s central bank, it will allow direct business between the Canadian dollar and the Chinese yuan, cutting out the middle man — in most cases, the U.S. dollar. Canadian exporters forced to use American currency to do business in China are faced with higher currency exchange costs and longer waits to close deals. The currency-hub

designation is also expected to help Canada attract international business, and gives it an advantage over its American competitors. John Manley, head of the Canadian Council of Chief Executives, said the Chinese will also be looking to Harper to clarify Canada’s positions on Chinese investment in Canada. “And I hope he does because we’re always going to need capital in Canada in order to develop our natural resources, and this is a big source of international capital, so we have to be somewhat open to China as a source of developing Asian supply chains,’’ Manley said. The Canada-China relationship has been particularly strained in recent months. The chilly relations almost iced the visit entirely. Since Harper’s last visit to China in 2012, the Conservatives restricted state-owned Chinese investment in Alberta’s oilsands and have yet to respond to an invitation to negotiate a free-trade agreement with China. The government also dragged its heels on ratifying a foreign investment promotion and protection agreement with the Chinese. Tensions reached a fever pitch in recent months after Harper accused the Chinese of a cyberattack on the National Research Council; the Chinese, meanwhile, have accused a Canadian couple living in China of spying.

More than two-dozen passengers hurt when Toronto-NYC bus crashes in U.S. THE CANADIAN PRESS

SYRACUSE, N.Y. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A tour bus heading from Toronto to New York City crashed into a wrecked car and a tractor-trailer on Interstate 81 outside Syracuse early yesterday (Nov. 6), injuring more than two dozen people, authorities said. The Pine Hill Trailways bus with 52 passengers on board was travelling south on I-81 at about 2:30 a.m. when it slammed into a car that had just crashed into a guard rail and came to rest in the highwayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s left lane just south of Syracuse,

the Onondaga County sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office said. Deputies said the bus then hit the rear of a tractor-trailer whose driver had pulled over on the highwayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shoulder to offer assistance to the carâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s driver. Twenty-six of the passengers and the bus driver were injured, officials said. It took emergency crews two hours to extricate the driver from the vehicleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s smashed-in front end, deputies said. He was listed in serious condition at Upstate University

Hospital in Syracuse. The injured passengers mostly suffered lower extremity, chest, back and facial injuries, all of them apparently minor, police said. They were transported to hospitals in the 10 ambulances and other emergency vehicles that responded to the crash scene. Onondaga County sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s detective Jon Seeber told the PostStandard that there was a language barrier between some of the passengers and rescue crews. The driver of the car was charged with driv-

ing while intoxicated. I-81â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s southbound lanes were closed until shortly before 5:30 a.m. Deputies said the bus left Toronto on Wednesday night and was scheduled to arrive in New York City at about 6:30 a.m. yesterday. The uninjured passengers were taken to Syracuseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bus station. The bus is owned by Trailways of New York, a Hurley, N.Y.-based company that also operates Adirondack Trailways, New York Trailways and NeOn Bus. The American Bus

SNC Lavalin to cut 4,000 jobs, Scam in California lands Canadian man behind bars reduces 2014 expectations LOS ANGELES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A Canadian man who scammed money from people by convincing them their grandchildren were in danger overseas has been sentenced in Los Angeles to five years in federal prison. City News Service said Pascal Goyer was sentenced for wire fraud. At the time of his arrest in October 2012, the FBI said his last known residence was Montreal. Goyer is one of about a halfdozen people charged with running a scheme in which grandparents in

southern California were contacted and told their grandchildren or other relatives were in trouble overseas. The victims were told to send money for such things as bail or caraccident repairs. Prosecutors said victims in six cities sent wire transfers for $1,000 to $3,000 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the money went to the scammers. Four co-defendants remain in Canada and authorities are seeking their extradition. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Canadian Press

MONTREAL â&#x20AC;&#x201D; SNC-Lavalin will reduce the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s global workforce by 4,000, or nine per cent of the total, over an 18-month period starting in 2015. The Montreal-based engineering and construction company said the job cuts â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which will significantly reduce the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s profit this year, but save money over the longer term â&#x20AC;&#x201D; are part of its ongoing efforts to get out of underperforming business segments. About three-quarters of the downsizing will be directed at SNCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s activities outside of Canada â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with particular attention given to a major global slowdown in the mining sector, one of the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s areas of expertise. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While we remain committed to maintaining a leadership position in mining, a major global slowdown in the sector has created a ripple effect through other industries, and is combining with a general economic slowdown, particularly in the BRIC countries,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; said Robert Card, SNCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s president and CEO.

During the quarter, SNCLavalin completed the acquisition of U.K.-based Kentz â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a $2.1-billion deal announced in June. Kentz was the first big acquisition for Card, who was hired after the engineering firm disclosed financial irregularities two years ago that led to departures of several executives. The downsizing was announced with SNCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s thirdquarter financial results, which showed an overall profit due to its investments in major infrastructure businesses and a reduced loss from engineering and construction activities. The company earned $69 million, or 45 cents per share,

for the three months ended Sept. 30 compared with a loss of $72.5 million, or 48 cents per share, in the third quarter of 2013. Revenue totalled $2 billion, up from $1.95 billion a year ago. The companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s revenue backlog totalled $12.5 billion, a 51.0 per cent increase compared with the end of 2013. Still, the company is lowering its guidance for its 2014 earnings per share. Including the Kentz transaction and the job cuts announced yesterday, SNC-Lavalin expects to earn between 40 and 55 cents per share. If those arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t included, the revised guidance would be a range of between $2.15 and $2.40 per share. The estimates did not include a potential gain from the sale of its investment in AltaLink, an Alberta utility. SNCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s previous range guidance range was earnings per share of between $2.80 and $3.05 per share.

‘Battle rap’ preceded fatal punch at Winnipeg party, court hears MIKE MCINTYRE

THE CANADIAN PRESS

WINNIPEG — It began as a fun evening for members of a Winnipeg high school football team looking to kick off their upcoming season. It ended with a surprise visit from a rival team, heated insults and an angry decision that led to the death of a player. Details of the death of 18-yearold Christian O’Neail in August 2013 emerged at the sentencing hearing this week for the youth who threw the punch. The boy, who was 17 at the time, has pleaded guilty to manslaughter. O’Neail died after a single punch to the head that knocked him unconscious. He fell to the ground outside a home, striking his head and suffering a catastrophic brain injury. He was removed from life support days later, his organs donated by family. “Christian O’Neail isn’t here today because of a sucker punch he never saw coming,’’ Crown attorney Dan Angus told court. “This was by no means, in any way, a consensual fight. This was

Accused spoke of wanting to ‘knock out some randoms’ a senseless and careless act of violence.’’ Several family members gave victim impact statements to court. “I could not imagine on that day I would watch my child die, hold him in my arms, wipe his final tears and feel the warmth leave his body,’’ said his mother, Deborah O’Neail. “We were good, careful and loving parents.’’ “There’s nothing worse for a parent than having to watch your child die,’’ said father Victor O’Neail. O’Neail and other football players and students from Kildonan East high school went to a party being hosted by players from another high school team as part of a “rookie initiation,’’ court was told. The parents who owned the home gave their son permission to hold the party and they rented a downtown Winnipeg hotel suite for the night, ensuring no adult supervision. The party quickly got out of

hand with approximately 60 people in attendance, including the rival school, along with plenty of alcohol consumption. The Crown said there were several incidents, including a backyard “battle rap’’ that led to arguments, along with shouts about which school had the better football team. The boy who threw the punch, who was from a different school than O’Neail, was angry at what he felt was improper behaviour from O’Neail and others, court was told. He even spoke openly about wanting to “knock out some randoms.’’ However, O’Neail and his friends had already agreed to leave the party and even shook hands with the party host and some students as they walked to their cars on the street. That’s when the youth sprung out of the crowd and threw the deadly punch. The boy was freed on bail after a few days and has remained in the

community since, and that’s where he should stay, his lawyer says. “He didn’t intend the consequences of his actions,’’ said Greg Brodsky, noting the teen hasn’t received so much as a traffic ticket in his life. “He’s been described as a peacemaker who would avoid conflict.’’ The young man read a written apology in court. “I wish I could go back to that night and do so much differently. I’ve been living with it every day. I think about Christian every day,’’ he said. “I’ve realized how valuable life is. Life can change in an instant. Any choice we make can have a huge consequence.’’ O’Neail’s family said they continue to harbour plenty of anger, even hatred, for the teen who took their son’s life but added they must try to forgive. “I have to forgive you, not for you, but for me, so I can continue to live,’’ Victor O’Neail said. The Crown is seeking the maximum youth sentence of two years custody, while the defence is asking for probation and possibly even a discharge. Sentencing is set for Nov. 28.

Alberta spending alarming, CFIB says CALGARY — The Canadian Federation of Independent Business says the vast majority of Alberta municipalities are spending money at an alarming and unsustainable rate. The organization has released a report logging the operating expenditures of municipalities between 2000 and 2012. Senior policy analyst Amber Ruddy said inflation-adjusted operating expenses by all 181 municipalities with a population of at least 1,000 rose by 80 per cent in that time. That’s about twoand-a-half times faster than Alberta’s total population growth of 29 per cent in the same period. — The Canadian Press

Video not meant Wind-turbine noise to offend: union not linked to illness CALGARY — Representatives of a Quebec union, the Confederation des Syndicats Nationaux, say they did not intend to offend anyone when they recorded a video promoting provincial government liquor sales. The video, recorded in Alberta, included comments from a French-speaking man suggesting private liquor sales in the province have resulted in a poor level of customer service. The unidentified man asserts that immigrant business owners from India and Pakistan are uninformed salespeople when it comes to the sale of alcohol.

Following a backlash from outraged residents of Quebec and Alberta, the union issued an apology and announced its decision to remove the controversial remarks from the video. Devinder Toor owns 14 Alberta liquor stores and has been in the alcohol-sales business for 14 years. He said he and his staff stay on top of available products in the market. “We are very confident,’’ explained Toor. “The staff works to answer all the needs of the customers. “We try to put the best value for the customers in terms of knowledge, prices and everything.”

TORONTO — A Health Canada study has found no evidence to support a link between exposure to wind turbine noise and health effects reported by people living near the towering structures. However, the study did find a relationship between increasing levels of windturbine noise and residents’ annoyance related to noise, vibration and shadow flicker from the structures. The year-long study explored the relationship between exposure to noise and health effects reported by people living near wind turbines. The study included a detailed questionnaire to adult

residents in more than 1,200 households in southwestern Ontario and P.E.I. living at various distances from almost 400 wind turbines. A subgroup of residents also had measurements taken of health-related indicators, such as hair cortisol as a biomarker of stress, blood pressure, resting heart rate and sleep. The study found no causal relationship between windturbine noise and any health effects identified through this testing, but Health Canada says the study alone cannot provide definitive answers and more research may be needed. — The Canadian Press

Mulcair says NDP women are being re-victimized by airing of complaints OTTAWA — NDP Leader Tom Mulcair said two of his female MPs have been victimized a second time by Justin Trudeau’s decision to publicize their complaints of inap-

propriate behaviour against two Liberal MPs. Mulcair confirmed it was two New Democrat women who complained about the conduct of Scott

Andrews and Massimo Pacetti, whom Trudeau suspended on Wednesday (Nov. 5) from the Liberal caucus pending an investigation. Speaking in Whitby,

Smell ‘n’ tell

Ont., Mulcair said he knew about the complaints, but had not pursued them because the women wanted to keep the matter confidential. He said the NDP respected the women’s wishes; to do otherwise would have made them victims a second time. One of the two NDP MPs complained

directly to Trudeau, who responded by suspending Pacetti and Andrews over what the Liberal leader described as allegations of “serious personal misconduct’’ by MPs from a rival party. Mulcair said Trudeau gave New Democrats no prior warning that he was about to make the matter public. 101- 929 LAVAL CRESCENT, KAMLOOPS

Attacks in Iraq kill 13, mostly soldiers SAMEER N. YACOUB

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BAGHDAD — A series of attacks, mainly against Iraqi troops, killed 13 people in Baghdad and in the country’s west yesterday (Nov. 6) as the government pressed ahead with a draft law meant to establish a community-based national guard force in efforts to mobilize Iraq’s Sunni minority in the battle against the Islamic State group. In one of yesterday’s attacks, a suicide bomber drove his explosivesladen car into an army checkpoint near the town of al-Baghdadi, about 180 kilometres northwest of Baghdad, killing five soldiers and wounding 12, police officials said. In Baghdad, a bomb blast in a commercial street in the western

district of Ghazaliyah killed four people and wounded eight, while a bomb near a line of shops killed two people in the city’s northwest, the officials said. Earlier, gunmen in a speeding car opened fire on an army checkpoint in Baghdad’s western suburb of Abu Ghraib, killing two soldiers. Hospital officials confirmed the causalities. All officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media. Meanwhile, Iraq’s parliament speaker, Salim al-Jubouri said that the draft law to establish a community-driven national guard in each province would be finished and submitted to the parliament within the next two weeks The move is mainly designed to appease and

mobilize Sunni tribes against the extremists form the Islamic State group who made big advances in the Sunni western province of Anbar in recent months. Members of the Sunni minority have been complaining of second-class treatment by the Shiiteled government and abuse by Shiite militias. Once the law is approved, it could still take months to assemble and equip such a force. “Obviously the events of Anbar . . . led to a popular mobilization of the people to confront the IS group,’’ al-Jubouri told The Associated Press from Irbil in northern Iraq. Iraq is facing its worst crisis since the 2011 withdrawal of U.S. troops, with the Islamic State group in control of large swaths of land in the country’s north and west.

Activitst: U.S. strike hits rebels not affiliated with ISIL DIAA HADID

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BEIRUT — U.S. aircraft bombed al-Qaeda’s Syrian branch as well as another hard-line rebel faction in northwestern Syria early yesterday (Nov. 6), activists said, in an apparent widening of targets of the American-led coalition against the Islamic State extremist group. The series of airstrikes overnight targeted three different areas near the Turkish border, hitting a headquarters and a vehicle belonging to the alQaeda-affiliated Nusra Front, as well as a compound of the deeply conservative Ahrar alSham rebel group. It marked only the second time the United States had expanded its aerial campaign against Islamic State militants to hit other extremists in Syria. There was no immediate confirmation from U.S. officials, but the apparent strikes took place amid a Nusra Front offensive that has routed Western-backed rebel groups from their strongholds in

Syria’s Idlib province near the Turkish border. The timing suggests Washington could be trying to curb the militant assault and destroy weapons supplies of hard-line rebels and al-Qaeda fighters. But by striking groups whose primary focus is fighting Syrian President Bashar Assad, the U.S. risks further enraging many Syrians in opposition-held areas who believe Washington is aiding Assad in his struggle to hold onto power in the country’s three-and-a-half-year-old civil war. Purported civilian casualties have only compounded those frustrations, and activists said at least two children were killed in the overnight strikes. “We are tired of people saying they are coming to help us, and then they kill us,’’ said activist Asaad Kanjo, based in Idlib. The latest strikes hit a Nusra Front compound in the village of Harem and a vehicle near the town of Sarmada, said two other Idlib-based activists,

Abu Abdul-Qader and Ahmad Kaddour. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights also reported the strikes. Nusra Front fighters seized Sarmada and a series of other communities throughout Idlib province earlier this month from a Western-backed and funded rebel group known as the Syrian Revolutionaries Front. The militants have since been massing in Sarmada, closing in on the strategic Bab al-Hawa border crossing with Turkey without physically taking it over. “Of course they [Americans] would be worried that Nusra could take Bab al-Hawa or seize arm stockpiles going in for other groups, if they are doing that,’’ said Aron Lund, editor of Syria in Crisis, a website run by the Carnegie Endowment. The Nusra Front is a fierce rival of the Islamic State group, despite their shared extremist ideology. The two factions have been locked in a bloody conflict since early this year.

Poppy power, the remembrance flower CHRIS MCBEATH

SPECIAL TO KTW

s delicate as they appear, corn poppies are an enduring flower. Scattered randomly by the wind, their seeds flourish in freshly turned soil, often turning just-ploughed fields into unexpected seas of crimson. In the shell-shocked and grave-ridden landscapes of Flanders during the First World War, those seas became oceans of sudden beauty across the morass of sodden wasteland. That the blood-red poppy should become such a significant symbol of remembrance is thanks only in part to John McCrae’s famous poem, In Flanders Fields.

and charities. It is a generosity of spirit that makes the Last Post such a moving and personal experience. Although attendance dwindled as veterans died, McCrae’s words have touched the hearts of younger generations. What attracted only a handful of people a decade ago has grown to include more than a hundred almost every day come snow, sleet and rain. And, at 11 a.m. on Nov. 11, the crowds swell to crush capacity and usually include members of the British and Belgium royal families. Remembrance Day is the only time when poppies fall from the Gate’s vaulted ceiling in thousands, commemorating the more than 10-million military personnel who died during what is widely considered the deadliest conflict in human history.

The Menin Gate Memorial is a mausoleum where the names of 54,986 soldiers, whose bodies were never found, are etched into the marble walls. CHRIS MCBEATH PHOTO

The Poppy Women

It was, in fact an American woman, Moina Michael, who responded to McCrae’s clarion call to keep the faith; she conceived the poppy movement. Ironically, poppies never caught on in the United States but, like the seed, the idea scattered and took hold overseas: First in war-torn France where Madam Guerin started to hand-make poppies to raise money for war orphans and destitute women and then to the British Foreign Legion which adopted, evolved, and have now mentored the concept for almost 100 years.

Poppies of Flanders

Nowhere is this better seen than at The Menin Gate Memorial, Ypres, Belgium where, every night, you can participate in, or simply witness The Last Call ceremony, one of the most poignant daily acts of remembrance. Ypres witnessed some of the Great War’s bloodiest battles and was razed to rubble twice, after The Great War (The First World War) and The Second World War.

Its rebuild, however, was so carefully executed that the authenticity of its historic charm belies that truth. Located at the city gate nearest to the front, the Menin Gate Memorial is a barrelvaulted mausoleum where the names of 54,986 Commonwealth soldiers, whose bodies were never found, are etched into the marble walls. The names of the remaining 34,984 missing are remembered at Tynecote Cemetery

although in both cases, those lists are constantly changing. Even today, human remains continue to be unearthed. Each receives a proper burial in one of the region’s many war cemeteries of the various nations that fought between 1914 and 1918. If the remains can be identified, the relevant name is removed from the Menin Gate walls and from Tynecote. In Ypres, poppies proliferate year round

The scale of The First World War is hard to grasp. It was the first mechanized war and, as such, the total of military and civilian casualties were devastating; some counts estimate nearly 16 million. Crude weaponry, gas attacks (mustard gas was first used near Ypres) and arrogant orders that sent young men, armed only with bayonets and rifles and barely old enough to shave, over the top,

losses quickly compounded. Conditions, too, were ravaging. The fields of battle had been flooded to slow the German advance through Belgium so the landscape was a body-rotting, rat-infested quagmire where dysentery, disease and trench foot were rampant. And, for soldiers who buckled to the environment, Field Punishment Number 1 was to be tied to a gunwheel and put on a bread and water diet. As much as the war annihilated our ignorance of fighting glory it was also where Commonwealth countries such as Canada, Australia and New Zealand forged their nationhood. The April 1917 battle for Vimy Ridge in France will forever be the Canadian triumph; and as the late Pierre Burton noted, the defining point of national identity that was fused with courage, spirit and determination. John McCrae’s bunker in Flanders Fields is equal testament to those values and perhaps, even more than that. Like the poppies he describes, his poem speaks to an enduring and persistent hope. Lest we forget, wear your poppy with pride and gratitude. Travel Writers’ Tales is an independent travel article syndicate. travelwriterstales.com.

Trinity Western issue is ‘like deja vu all over’

aseball legend Yogi Berra had some memorable quotes, including his most iconic one: “It’s like déjà vu all over again.” Redundant, of course, which is what made it so amusing. What isn’t so amusing is the current controversy between Canada’s law societies and Trinity Western University’s (TWU) proposed law school. The Langley-based school is a private Christian university that does not receive public funds. At the core of the controversy is its community charter, to which all students must adhere. The charter says students must agree to forego all sexual relations outside of marriage between a man

FAITH

and a woman. Why? Quite simply because the Christian religion demands sexual purity — and no sexual relationship outside of heterosexual marriage meets that standard. People who aren’t Christian may not like it, but it is part of Christian religious belief. Law societies in Ontario and New Brunswick have voted not to accredit TWU’s program, societies in

t Prairie provinces the h have approved it, and B B.C.’s Law Society just d decided to hold a nonb binding referendum o the issue (although on i board of governors its d originally approve did a accreditation). Those who oppose a accreditation argue it is discriminatory against homosexual students and people training to become lawyers should not be educated at an institution that enforces a discriminatory policy. High-profile lawyer Clayton Ruby is suing TWU on behalf of a gay law-school applicant who is in a commonlaw relationship. TWU is suing the law societies of Ontario and New Brunswick for opting not to accredit its law school. It’s a large controversy that will be decided years from now in the courts. You may be won-

dering why some law societies have voted to accredit the TWU law school. This is where “déjà vu all over again” comes in. In 1995, TWU decided it wanted to train teachers in its education faculty. At the time, education students could take all but their last year at TWU, but then would have to transfer to Simon Fraser University for their final year. TWU applied to the B.C. College of Teachers for accreditation of the fifth year of its education program. The College refused to accredit the program, claiming TWU graduates would likely discriminate against homosexual students, citing the controversial community charter as the primary reason. So, TWU sued

the College. The university argued the College had provided no evidence whatsoever that any Christian teacher trained at TWU had been guilty of discrimination against homosexual students, even in the College’s own disciplinary files (this was true). TWU said its community charter was a matter of religious freedom entirely within the purview of a Christian university’s right to enforce a code of conduct among its student body. The courts agreed. The B.C. Supreme Court, the B.C. Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court of Canada all sided with Trinity Western. The law societies who have approved accreditation haven’t done so because they agree with TWU’s controversial charter. They have likely done so because this battle has already been fought and decided at the Supreme Court of Canada level, and they

don’t want to waste their members’ dues on a fight they would probably not win. Back in 1997, I was a teacher who happened to be a practising Christian (trained at UVic, though). But, I had several well-respected colleagues who had attended TWU, including another school counsellor whose father had been a founding board member of TWU. I wrote to the B.C. Teachers’ Federation president, asking him to urge the College to reconsider its position, arguing there were quite a few duespaying members of the BCTF who were TWU grads. His response astounded me. In a letter dated October 15, 1997, then BCTF president Kit Krieger wrote: “If graduates of that institution have agreed to such principles [the community charter], . . . we do not support the certification of people who are evidently

predisposed to discriminate against some children and their families.” Of course, the courts had found no such evidence, yet here was the president of the teachers’ federation opposing the certification of some his own members. Krieger said the BCTF’s position was reached at an executive committee meeting on May 7, 1997. To my knowledge, this is still official BCTF policy. Since 2001, when TWU won its right to train teachers, I haven’t heard of a single case of one their graduates behaving in a discriminatory way toward homosexuals. Law societies may lose this case, but they also know that no law graduate can become a lawyer without articling at a law firm. Articling positions are fought over and what do you think the chances will be for applicants with TWU on their resumes? Slim and none.

Volunteers needed for Red Nose campaign The holiday season is approaching, which means it’s time to consider safe rides home during the merry festivities. Operation Red Nose is hosting its 18th annual campaign this season and is seeking volunteers who can again get patrons home after a night of Christmas spirit — and spirits. The campaign runs on Friday an Saturday nights, from Nov. 28 to Dec. 27, in addition to New Years Eve. The service is offered confidential and by donation to any person operating a vehicle and who does not wish to drive their car for any reason. A person does not have to be drinking to use this service. The organization runs solely on volunteers and this year’s campaign requires 250 people willing to give up some time. Volunteer positions include designated drivers, escort drivers, navigators, phone operators and dispatchers. Volunteers can team up with friends, family or co-workers to form a road team of three and help

safely drive home clients and their vehicles. Those interested in lending a hand can call Katie Klassen at 250320-0650 or email kklassen@pacificsport.com. Application forms can be picked up at the Tournament Capital Centre, RCMP detachment on Battle Street or Volunteer Kamloops. Drop off completed forms at the RCMP detachment with two pieces of photo identification.

WORD SCRAMBLE

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

ANSWER 1: WALLACE ANSWER 2: PROCTOR

HERE’S HOW IT WORKS:

Rearrange the letters in the word to spell a City Council candidate.
