I am so very sorry.” The Sept. 30 by-election is taking place due to three resignations from council. Peter Milobar stepped down as mayor after being elected MLA in Kamloops-North Thompson. Ken Christian resigned as councillor to seek the empty mayor’s chair. Marg Spina resigned as councillor to focus on cancer treatments. Christian, Reo Rocheleau and Todd Mcleod are running to replace Milobar.
DARRIN’S DIAGNOSIS
CROWDFUNDING CAMPAIGN UNDERWAY FOR LOCAL FAMILY MAN WITH RARE, AGGRESSIVE BRAIN TUMOUR A GoFundMe campaign for Kamloops couple Darrin and Tammy Yusishen and family can be found online at gofundme.com/ aggressive-brain-tumour. It has raised more than $33,000 so far.

It started with an agonizing headache and numbness in his fingertips. Darrin Yusishen, 40, went to Royal Inland Hospital on Thursday, July 20, and returned home with drugs for a bad migraine. Less than a week later, Yusishen lay awake during surgery while doctors worked to remove as much of his brain tumour as they could. Glioblastoma, a rare and aggressive type of brain tumour, accounts for about 12 per cent of all brain tumours and affects about one in 35,000 people. It’s spreads quickly. Yusishen began experiencing headaches and was extremely sensitive to noise. He was in agony. The days between
the initial visit to the hospital and Yusishen’s surgery were torturous — and not just for him. Much of the time
he spent in RIH was with his feet hanging off a stretcher, without a room. With some patients
evacuated from Williams Lake to Kamloops due to the wildfires, space was at a premium while
Yusishen was in hospital. The environment was noisy and aggravated his symptoms. His sister, Crystal Maloney, told KTW Yusishen couldn’t understand why he wasn’t able to get a bed, especially with the symptoms he was experiencing. Maloney said Yusishen jokingly asked, “How does ‘brain tumour guy’ not trump anybody else in this hospital and get a bed?” “He should have had a proper bed, in a room where every single noise wasn’t agonizing for him,” she said.

We would like to thank the Sport Chek Kamloops Marathon participants, sponsors and volunteers for their understanding of the race cancellation due to the wildfires. We truly appreciate your support and look forward to the 2018 Sport Chek Kamloops Marathon.

City parks close again, Crown land restricted It was nice while it lasted. For the second time this summer, the city is closing nature parks to the public due to extreme fire danger. By order of the fire chief, 17 parks closed on Friday to bicycle, pedestrian and vehicle traffic. City staff and bylaw officers will be monitoring the parks and
handing out fines for violations. Restrictions are also now in effect on Crown land in the Kamloops Fire Centre, as well as the Cariboo and Southeast fire centres. By order of the Ministry of Forests, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development, recreational offroad vehicles are banned from
Crown lands until further notice, again due to wildfire risk. The ban includes jeeps, trucks and other on-road vehicles taken off-road. Also closing for the near future is the Barnhartvale Landfill and yard waste depot, which shut down Saturday. Residents are asked to use other facilities.
Kamloops MLAs named to shadow cabinet Kamloops’ two MLAs will serve as critics in the B.C. Liberals shadow cabinet announced on Thursday.

‘HE JUST REALLY WORRIED ABOUT EVERYBODY ELSE’ From A1
Maloney wrote a letter to Kamloops-South MLA Todd Stone about the family’s experience. In the letter, she said that for two days there wasn’t room for family to sit with Yusishen and sometimes there wasn’t even room for them to stand beside his stretcher. She has since heard back from Stone’s office regarding the matter and will continue to communicate with them on the issue. It was in conditions like those that Yusishen and his family first found out he had a brain tumour, when hospital staff accidentally revealed the information while discussing his symptoms. Maloney said they then waited for seven hours before a neurosurgeon came to talk to them about the newly revealed tumour. If this had never happened, the family would have been at home celebrating their son’s seventh birthday and their son isn’t the only member of the family Yusishen and wife Tammy would have been thinking about that day. A sudden health crisis like this would be a profound interruption in any life, but for the Kamloops couple, circumstances are even more challenging. Twelve years ago, they were excited to become parents, but shocked when their daughter Bella was born with a rare genetic disorder called Cornelia

de Lange syndrome that affects between one in 10,000 and one in 50,000 births. Maloney said life was a challenge for the family even before Yusishen’s tumour. Cornelia de Lange syndrome affects physical and cognitive development. Those born with the disorder experience slow growth, short stature, moderate to severe intellectual disability and behaviour problems. It can also cause digestive issues, hearing loss, seizures, heart defects, eye problems and more. “They do everything they can to comfort her, but I mean, they haven’t had eight hours sleep since she was born. She requires constant care. Her story alone is very intense,” Maloney said. Maloney said Yusishen’s surgery on July 25 went “beautifully,” but that with a tumour this aggressive, it’s not something that can be removed completely. Because Yusishen needed to be awake during the surgery, he had a special request:
Play the Tragically Hip. Why? Because Yusishen suffers from the same type of tumour as Canadian music legend and Hip frontman Gord Downie, something he was told about by neurosurgeon Dr. Ferdinand Matanaj, who granted Yusishen’s request. Yusishen has tried to stay focused on his family and others around him — just as he did before his diagnosis and surgery. Maloney said Yusishen told her getting diagnosed with a brain tumour didn’t scare him and that being awake during the surgery didn’t scare him. What instead scares him is what happens to his family. “He’s had great concern about other people finding out because it’s so painful. He’s just been really worried about everybody else. That was his reaction,” Maloney said. Later this month, once he’s recovered from surgery, Yusishen will begin radiation and chemotherapy in Kelowna.
Yusishen’s doctor also shared his prognosis with Maloney. “He gave me a number,” she said. “I’m just kind of putting that out of my mind, because I think if anyone can beat that — it’s Yusishen.” While Yusishen recovers, those around him are already looking to help the family recover and keep up with their needs. Yusishen’s sisters have started a crowdfunding effort to raise money for the family to get by in the days ahead. As of Monday, the GoFundMe page had raised more than $33,000 of a $500,000 goal. “We’re not sure how they will manage,” Maloney said. “That’s one of the reasons why I set the bar pretty high on the GoFundMe. They’re going to have to hire nursing or somebody to help with Bella during this time. It’s not possible for family members to properly or adequately look after her continuously.” The experience has been a traumatic one for the family. Reflecting on the weeks past, Maloney was emotional — focused on her family as she passed a message along to anyone reading Yusishen’s story. “It’s important for people to live their best lives and to love their loved ones as well as they possibly can.” The Yusishen family also said it would like to thank neurosurgeon Dr. Matanaj for his exceptional care.

A group of Thompson Rivers University law students is part of a coalition granted intervenor status at a Supreme Court of Canada hearing that pits religious freedoms against sexual identity. TRU Outlaws is a group of LGBTQ law students and allies who are part of a greater coalition that includes students from University of B.C. and University of Victoria. The B.C. LGBTQ Coalition was recently granted intervenor status for the hearing. It will be allowed to present arguments and argue in front of the Supreme Court.

McDonell and other organizing members will meet next week with two lawyers, Karey Brooks and Elin Sigurdson, who will present the arguments. The coalition argues granting TWU a law school would allow it to exclude those who identify as LGBTQ. “The B.C. LGBTQ coalition would argue a public regulatory body’s accrediting a law school that excludes sexual minorities would diminish the social standing of that group, stigmatize its identities and perpetuate harm to its dignity and equality interests.”

Sexual assault response team relaunches ANDREA KLASSEN
STAFF REPORTER
andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com
Charlene Eden knows having a helping hand in the aftermath of sexual assault can make a major difference. It’s a role she used to play, as a volunteer member of the Kamloops Sexual Assault Counselling Centre’s (KSACC) Sexual Assault Response Team. That’s why, after a 13-year-absence, the centre re-launched its response team this July. For the past four weekends, teams of volunteers have offered responder service to people visiting Royal

forensic evidence (a rape kit) or help navigate the hospital system. “Pretty much anything that the survivor needs, and we can also provide support for people that show up with the survivor,” Eden said. “It might be a partner or a friend, a fam-
ily member. We can also work with them a little bit to help them understand what they can do.” Eden said the responders also make sure people are leaving the hospital with all the information they need to access help in the future. “It’s incredibly emotional, incredibly difficult. It’s a lot of information for somebody to take in, whether you’re the survivor or someone supporting the survivor,” she said. “So one of out roles is to make sure that when somebody does leave the hospital they have the information that they need and we

Wildfire evacuee charged with arson An evacuee from Williams Lake has been charged with arson and mischief after causing damage to a Kamloops hotel. Shane Dalton Dennis, 30, appeared in provincial court Wednesday on charges. RCMP reported Dennis had been
throwing things inside this room, broke a window, overturned a fridge and set items on fire at the Sandman Inn. Cpl. Jodi Shelkie said the hotel’s fire suppression system worked to douse the fire but it caused significant damage to
the room and outside hallway. Shelkie said Dennis was staying as an evacuee from Williams Lake. He is previously known to police. His next court appearance is Aug. 14. He remains in custody.
Clearwater man jailed for assault pleaded guilty in provincial court to assault STAFF REPORTER cam@kamloopsthisweek.com with a weapon and assault causing bodily A 64-year-old harm, as well as a Clearwater man was breach of his earlier sentenced Thursday to probation. 90 days in jail after an Prosecutor Sarah assault on his friend Firestone said and neighbour, part of RCMP&were called to what a Crown lawyer Silver Gold Clearwater Hospital called a “lengthy and on July 27 after a troubled history.” Alfredo Dasilva woman showed up CAM FORTEMS
with injuries. “She reported Mr. Dasilva had been angry with her younger brother. He’d been drinking and when she got home, he blew up at her.” Dasilva admitted to throwing a fork at the woman, which hit her in the eye and punctured an eyelid. He also
punched her in the ribs and hit her on the head with his cane, opening up a gash on her head. He was under a nocontact order with the woman when consuming alcohol. Defence lawyer Eric Rines and Firestone made a joint submission for the 90-day sentence in addition to
one-year of probation, which includes a strict no-contact order with the woman. Rines said Dasilva is a longtime friend and neighbour of his victim, but the two are not in a romantic relationship. “They both seem to support each other but have extensive drinking problems.”

PROTECT US FROM OURSELVES As wildfires continue to burn in the Interior, we applaud decisions from top officials to take extenuating measures in closing Kamloops parks and restricting access to B.C. Crown land. On Friday, the city and province made efforts to prevent additional fires from starting. Residents with outdoor plans or pet owners who walk their dog on a familiar route were likely disappointed by the news heading into three days off for the long weekend. City parks have already shuttered once this summer due to wildfire danger. But the reality is a fire burning at more than 90,000 hectares in size is only about 30 per cent contained. They need all hands on deck. Well over 600 people — more than 450 firefighters, 85 support staff and 105 structure protection personnel — along with 22 helicopters and 105 pieces of heavy equipment are working to douse the flames. Clinton residents remain on evacuation order, with many of them temporarily staying in Kamloops, and even more people were evacuated on Friday due to properties threatened by the Elephant Hill wildfire. Unfortunately, reports this summer about people impacted by the wildfires have been matched in number only by the number of careless people who are only adding to the situation. This late in the game, fires should not be human caused. We cannot add additional work to crews that have come from as far away as Mexico and Australia to protect us from the fires. To protect our families, homes — and even parks. Shut down the parks, restrict the Crown land. Do it all summer, if necessary. Wildfire season is not over yet. There are plenty of opportunities to alter our plans. There are plenty of roads on which to walk our dogs.

Some golden advice
I
slid safely into 60 earlier this year. Some say I look 50 while others toss digs my way about finding a luxury seniors’ home or joining a co-ed carpet bowling league. I tell the jokers that I feel privileged to have made it this far. I attended celebrations of life for four wonderful men last year. None of them celebrated their 60th birthday and I miss all of them: Mike Lloyd, Neil McPhie, Norm Amiel and Tom Frame. Looking back, it has been a rocky ride at times, but one without regrets. I spent time in hell for a spell in my early 30s, so much so that I am not afraid to die at all. Just let me make it to 90 and we’re good, Lord. I changed my cognitive thinking, stopped letting people intimidate me and tried to be positive at every turn. The late, great Peter Godrey, a managing editor and fatherfigure to me while I was a 20-year-old sports editor at the Kelowna Daily Courier, told me I had to “look out for No. 1” to be happy in life. I wasn’t sure what he meant, but years later I was able to live that philosophy without losing any kindness, thoughtfulness or warmth my loving parents had taught their four sons. My bestie since we met at Lakeview Park after a Little League game at age 13 is Jim Sparrow.

Guest
SHOT He built a highly successful electrical company from the ground up with countless hours of nightly office time and attention to detail. He, my parents and my late uncle Denny, killed by a drunk driver 10 years ago in Palm Springs, have been my heroes. They treat the CEO like they treat the janitor. I was there for Jim when his dad Gerry died of cancer when he was far too young. He was there for me when my life went sideways after a series of sad events on Vancouver Island. We are truly here to see one another through and not see through one another. I make sure I give everybody who greets me at a Vipers game or at a coffee shop the time of day. Neither of us may be around the next day. I knew back in Grade 9 that I wanted to be a sportswriter. Packing mud for a few weeks with my uncle Den and my grandfather Andy on a stucco and masonry job was the
clincher: no manual work for me, thank you. The Vernon Morning Star is my fifth newspaper. I’ve been here 26 years and, having attended Silver Star, Fulton and Vernon Senior Secondary schools, I have a strong sense of community. My folks have made a major impact on this city and I have enjoyed following their lead through service and volunteerism. Such unpaid work keeps you moving, thinking and satisfied. I’m 60 but I’m not done trying to make Vernon a better place. I will help run the Okanagan Sports Hall of Fame until they run out of teams and athletes to honour. My youngest of three wonderful kids will age out after next hockey season so I will step up and coach one more year. Jim and I began coaching in Grade 12 through Deloy Routley’s Community Rec class and we’ve been hooked ever since. Having a young man shake your hand, look you in the eye and call you coach 20 years after you last saw him is a rewarding moment. Anyway, I’m here to tell you I may be 60 and playing the back nine, but I’m not putting a down payment on any TSN Seniors Complex room just yet. I’ve got things to do.

YOUR OPINION

LOCAL NEWS
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
CONSIDER CITY POLICE FORCE POOR AIR Editor: Our RCMP chief has a limited perception as to the role of our city’s police force. Recently, he asked for help from other agencies in handling increasing non-criminal activity where arrests are required. I ask city council to
advise the chief that our police are hired to help all Kamloops residents whether addicted, homeless or unemployed. They could remind him his officers might actually attempt to communicate and help these people with their problems. Officers could put
away their guns, handcuffs and arrest warrants and try to give positive assistance. The police are not here to only deal with criminal activity. The mandate is wider. More time on traffic flow and helping those in need might justify their funding —
which is nearly half of the city’s budget. If the chief disagrees, I suggest city council considers a city police force, which would be accountable to the city that funds them — and not the RCMP’s Surrey and Ottawa offices. John Hart Kamloops
LOGGING TAKES OUR BREATH AWAY Editor: Oh cry me a river and lets see how a sprinkling of tears lessens our wild fires. Logging companies are whining of economic hardships due to wildfires. Consider that it’s logging which has significantly contributed to this emergency. The latest research says logging makes forests more prone to ignition and increases fire severity and fire fre-
quency. Here’s how. The removal of trees by logging creates canopy openings and this increases the drying of understory vegetation and the forest floor. Research indicates logging increases both the risk and severity of wildfires through changes in fuel types and conditions. Large quantities of logging slash created by harvesting operations sustains fires for longer
than fuels in unlogged forest and also harbours fires and facilitates reflaming, combustion and the spread of fires. The road networks required for logging operations create an increased number of ignition points for wildfires. Forest edges created by logging and logging roads become sites for fire incursions into adjacent forests. Thinnings, felled
trees to allow faster regrowth and re-harvest, elevate the risk of unplanned ignitions. Next time you see a logging truck hauling out another $3,000 load, consider these trees once made oxygen for us to breathe. Now ain’t that karma. Forest fires made worse by the economy of logging, now taking our breath away: priceless. Axel Montaner Kamloops
QUALITY — AJAX MINE OR NOT
Editor: If this year’s wildfire season has taught us anything, it is that Kamloops does not need Ajax to consistently give us the worst air quality in British Columbia. The index is rated 0-10+. Zero is good. 10+ is very bad. We’ve had days that went over the top of the scale. Nowhere did I find exactly how 12 is defined. Except that its bad for all living creatures and plants. We’re not only breathing in wood smoke, but also spiders, deer, bears, skunk cabbage and burnt microorganisms. Our orange moon and orange sun look alike these days. To see for yourself, Google: “BC Air Quality Index.” Then click on the current air monitoring data map of B.C.’s air quality. Christina Mader Kamloops
CITY’S GENEROSITY WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN Editor: We would like to send many thanks to the city of Kamloops and their volunteers. You went above and beyond. Special thank you to
Continental Barber Shop for the free haircut paid for by a patron; McCleaners Laundromat for their free service; Cascade Casino for their free and delicious buffet meals; Aquatic Centre for free
swimming and showers; Value Village for their 50 per cent off discounts; the gentleman in Lone Butte for filling up our cars and trucks with free gas and, of course, for all of the food vouch-
ers and many other stores discounts. Your generosity will never be forgotten. Ed and Irene Pryor 150 Mile House

MONTREAL — Several hundred people shouted “refugees welcome!’’ in Creole as they gathered outside Montreal’s Olympic Stadium on Sunday to show support for the waves of asylum-seekers crossing the border from the United States. Members of the group stood on a hill near the entrance to the stadium, waving signs and balloons and chanting messages of welcome. “We are here with them, to support them and to help them establish themselves,’’ organizer Serge Bouchereau told the crowd through a megaphone. “This is a vast, rich country that can welcome many, many people who are in bad
situations and can’t stay in their own countries.’’ The Olympic Stadium is one of several venues that has been transformed into a temporary shelter to accommodate some of the refugee-claimants, whose numbers have soared in recent weeks. The City of Montreal says between 250 and 300 people are now crossing the CanadaUnited States border to seek asylum every day, up from 50 per day in the first half of July. Many of those crossing the border, like 32-year-old Adline Tidas, are of Haitian descent. In the United States, the Trump administration is considering ending a program that granted Haitians socalled “temporary protected status’’ following the massive earthquake
that struck Haiti in 2010. Tidas said she had been living in Ft. Lauderdale since 2009, but left the United States last week because she feared being sent back to her home country. “The government gave an extension of eight months and I don’t want to go back to Haiti,’’ she said in an interview near the stadium. She said conditions in the shelter were good and she was feeling optimistic about her future. “[Canada] looks like a good place, I’m supposed to be here,’’ she said. “Right now, anything I can do to work, I will do it. But my dream is, I want to be a nurse — to help people because people helped me.”
Several in the crowd said they had come to Canada as immigrants themselves and wanted to show their support for the newcomers. “I have a standard of living that is very high because this country accepted me and I wish it for others as well,’’ said 22-year-old Alexis Audoin, who was born in France. The event was organized by Solidarity Across Borders and the Non-Status Action Committee, both of which are calling for open borders and the regularization of undocumented immigrants. A separate counter-demonstration had been organized to protest the arrival of the asylum-seekers, but organizers announced on Saturday that it had been cancelled.

Jaw got 4.3 millimetres of rain in July, less than the 4.6 millimetres it got in 1929. It was also hot. Regina had 11 days over 30 C in July. The city of Swift Current, about 245 kilometres west of Regina, saw 14 days over 30 C. Canola is taking a hit because of the heat and might only yield half the crop of an average year. Ranchers in southern Saskatchewan are also facing poor grazing conditions and have scaled back hay cutting because of the hot, dry weather. Agriculture Canada’s latest drought monitor map for July won’t be out until next week, but Hadwen says it will show severe drought conditions in much of southern Saskatchewan, with patches of extreme drought. The dry conditions are also affecting water
sources for cattle. In mid-July, about 200 cattle were found dead in a pasture in southwestern Saskatchewan after they drank toxic water. Provincial officials said hot weather caused evaporation, which left a sulphate concentration of more than 24,000 milligrams per litre in the water. Sulphate concentrations over 7,000 per litre can kill cattle. There were 59 calls to Saskatchewan’s Farm Stress Line in July — compared to 16 the same time last year. In Regina, parched soil is also causing the ground to shift and that’s pulling power meter boxes away from homes. SaskPower, the Crown utility company, said seven metres caught fire over two weeks. — The Canadian Press

NEW CRAFT BREWERY OPENS IN KAMLOOPS ANDREA KLASSEN STAFF REPORTER andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com
He may be the latest, but Iron Road Brewing co-owner Richard Phillips doesn’t expect to be the last person to start a craft brewery in the Tournament Capital. The Camosun Crescent brewery is the second to open in Kamloops with a manufacturing and tasting room model, where almost all product sold is made on site. Sales of beer began Tuesday of last week, after a month of brewing and nearly a year of construction and setup. So far, Phillips said the reception has been positive — including
a warm welcome from the city’s first craft brewery, Red Collar Brewing. Phillips said he and co-owner Jared Tarswell were able to go to their competitor for advice and even ingredients when they ran short. “We view our competition as domestic beer, not other craft breweries,” Phillips said. “Red Collar is a great brewery. They’ve got a great following in town. I love their beer, too.” He expects Iron Road too will get to welcome newbie brewery owners to the city at some point in the future. “We feel like there’s going to be others after us for sure. There’s going to be more
breweries coming to Kamloops,” he said. “Especially because they’re so supportive of local businesses in this town.” Iron Road is starting its run with a series of lighter beers for the summer season. When KTW visited the brewery on Friday, a lager, IPA and summer ale were on offer, along with a farmhouse-style beer. An additional pale ale needed about five more hours to be ready for the draft lines, according to brewer Aaron MacInnis. “We have some darker beers in the works that we’re keeping under wraps right now, but we think will be really popular when they come out,” said Phillips. “These beers are the

ones for trying to beat the heat.” Phillips, MacInnis and Tarswell will also be looking at what brews do well, with an eye to making future batches and to packaging, which Iron Road hopes to begin in the next several weeks. Phillips said the brewery plans to use a mobile service, which will allow it to offer cans without needing to invest in an expensive canning line of its own. It will also produced large bomber-style bottles in house and offer growler fills. Once they settle in, Phillips said there are also plans to add more experimental options to the tasting room taps, though those are being kept secret for the time being.

City issued $38 million in residential permits ANDREA KLASSEN
STAFF REPORTER
andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com
It was another hot month for residential building permits in the
city of Kamloops. July saw the city issue nearly $38 million worth of permits, compared to $19 million in the same month of 2016, with
OVERALL NUMBERS UP THIS YEAR FROM 76 TO 125 permits for two large residential projects driving much of the increase.
The larger of the two, a $12 million permit for 1880 Hugh Allan Dr., will see 60 oneand two-bedroom units, as well as studio suites. A second permit for two four-storey buildings containing a combined 152 units at 2370 Pacific Way is valued at $8.8 million.
The city also issued permits for another 21 single family homes, worth $7 million in total. To date, 125 single family home permits have been issued in 2017, compared to 76 at this time last year. Director of development and engineering services Marvin
Kwiatkowski said the residential boom should continue into August, as several other big-ticket apartment projects planned around the city are expected to be ready to issue. While commercial permit values have stayed low compared to residential, July did see a boost in those num-
bers thanks to a $4 million permit issued to Thompson Rivers University for its trades and technology centre. At the end of July, the city had issued permits totally $104 million. That’s up from the $87 million issued by this time in 2016.

Getting Schooled in Education Savings Plans Growing up in a house where our parents were a school principal and teacher-librarian, we learned the value of education at a young age. We also learned the value of a good report card! Now that we have kids, we were keen to start saving for their education at a young age to help them realize their career aspirations when they grow up. Registered Education Savings Plans (RESPs) are a great tool to help fund post-secondary education for kids and grandkids. This is good news because according to TD Economics, the estimated future cost of a degree in 2027 is $102,000, and continues to grow three to five times faster than the rate of inflation! RESPs have evolved over the years and offer greater flexibility nowadays. For example, post-secondary programs in Canada of at least three consecutive weeks can qualify. 1. Individual Plans versus Family Plans: In general, a family plan is more flexible than an individual plan. You have the ability to allocate your education savings across multiple children in a family plan, where as an individual plan is literally only for one child. There is no risk to opening a family plan in consideration of extra children down the road. In order to qualify as a family plan, the children (beneficiaries) must all be related to the parents.
2. Free money! Not many things in life are free anymore, but our government supports education and will provide a grant of 20% to a limit of $500 per year and to a lifetime maximum grant of $7,200 per child until they turn 18 years of age. This means if you save $2,500 a year, you will maximize the grant and the government will contribute $500. The government provides an additional grant for families with lower net incomes. Want to stretch things out further? The new Canada Child Benefit provides families an average of $2,300 a year. If you were to invest that into an RESP and receive the $460 grant from birth up to the age your child turns 18 and invested the proceeds at 5%, you will have $64,704 in education savings… without investing a dime of your own money! 3. Tax Efficient: When you withdraw from an RESP for educational purposes, there are two portions or buckets to draw from. 1. Your original contributions or Post-Secondary Education Payments (PSE) 2. The accumulated income, grants and growth on all assets, also called Education Assistance Payment (EAP)
4. What if they don't go to school? With a family plan, funds can be redirected to another child attending school. Your son or daughter also has up to age 35 to draw down their RESP. Lastly, should they decide not to go to school, you can get your money out, less the provided grants and growth on the grant with some tax implications. 5. For grandparents and family: If you are wanting to help out grandkids, nieces, nephews etc. we recommend your first step be talking to the parents to see if they have an RESP setup, then you can decide who will open the account and who can help fund the account. Multiple RESP accounts for the same children are not recommended as they do not receive any additional grant, but can lead to complications and over-contributing. Given the many benefits of RESPs, we feel they are a great tool to help provide your kids or grandkids with an education. There are a few intricacies to RESPs which is why we encourage you to talk to an advisor to ensure you are getting the most out of your personal circumstance.
No need to worry on tracking as this is done by your RESP provider. When you withdraw your original contributions (PSE), there are no tax implications as you are literally taking your own money out. The growth and grant portion (EAP) is taxed in the beneficiary's hands (your child). Because students often have little to no income, plus the availability of tuition and education income tax credits generally little to no tax is payable.

Pendrel returns to podium MARTY HASTINGS
STAFF REPORTER

atharine Pendrel is picking a good time to emerge from a spell of mediocrity that followed the best season of
her career. The 36-year-old Kamloops resident placed third in the women’s elite cross-country division at the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) Mountain Bike World Cup race in Mont-Saint-Anne, Que., on Sunday. “I felt really strong,” Pendrel told KTW. “I had a good start and was able to move into a top-three position quite early in the race. That definitely helps, to get out ahead of traffic. A little positioning thing was the reason I lost contact with the top girls.” The bronze-medal victory marked the prolific rider’s 40th trip to the World Cup podium. Pendrel finished in 1:19:04, one minute and 14 seconds behind gold medallist Yana Belomoina of Ukraine and 30 seconds back of Pauline Ferrand Prevot, the silver medallist from France. The Clif Pro Team member is rediscovering the form and confidence that helped her win bronze at the 2016 Olympic Summer Games in Rio, trending in the right direction ahead of the women’s UCI Mountain Bike World Championship, slated for Sept. 9 in Cairns, Australia. “It takes a little while to maybe reset your goals and focus and get everything dialled,” said Pendrel, who also won the overall World Cup title in 2016. “There were some people who left last season unsatisfied and looking to go push themselves early on. “It’s nice to be back in the mix.” Pendrel had a slow start to the 2017 World Cup circuit. She was in third place and feeling strong at stop No. 1 in

Catharine Pendrel was greeted at Kamloops Airport by fans and then-Kamloops Mayor Peter Milobar after she won bronze at the 2016 Olympic Summer Games in Rio. After a slow start to the 2017 season, the Kamloops mountain biker is nearing top gear just in time for the world championship.
Nové Mesto na Morave, Czech Republic, on May 20 when she twisted a chain and punctured a tire, setbacks that cost her about four minutes and led to a 21stplace finish. The New Brunswick native placed 14th in Albstadt, Germany, on May 28, overexerting herself early in the race before crashing and sputtering down the stretch. Kicking the mental hangover was proving tough. “That’s what I’ve found with the last two Olympics,” said Pendrel, who placed ninth at the 2012 Games in London. “One went poorly and one went amazingly, but both are just such highenergy-investment seasons. It’s

hard to bring that same amount of energy to the next season.” She seems to have found a spark in the last month. Pendrel placed 10th at stop No. 4 in Lenzerheide, Switzerland, on July 8, an improvement on her 16th-place finish at the third stop in Vallnord, Andorra, on July 2, and won silver at the women’s Canadian Mountain Bike Championship in Canmore, Alta., on July 23. “It’s positive to know my form is there and I’m riding well technically,” she said. Pendrel will be globetrotting over the next month on a trip that will go a long way in determining how she looks back at 2017.

She will not win her fourth overall World Cup title, sitting 11th in the standings with one event remaining, but a third world championship victory is still up for grabs. As of Monday morning, Pendrel was ranked sixth in the world among elite women’s crosscountry riders. If she is ranked among the top eight heading into world championship week, then she will bolster her chances of medalling by virtue of front-row starting position. Pendrel can solidify her spot among the top eight in the world with strong results at the Windham Pro event in Windham, New York, on Saturday and at the
last stop on the World Cup circuit in Val Di Sole, Italy, on Aug. 26. “I’ll be aiming for the podium and looking for as many points as possible,” Pendrel said. Pendrel’s world championship victories came three years apart, in 2011 and 2014. Riders such as Belomoina, who is running away with the overall World Cup title, are standing in the way of the Canadian’s hat-trick. “I know it’s going to be a big challenge,” Pendrel said. “There are a couple girls that are exceptional right now. They’ll be very hard to beat. “But I feel more positive than I did a couple weeks ago.”

Sun batter Broncos After a runaway victory against the Valley Huskers of Chilliwack in Week 1 of the B.C. Football Conference season, the Kamloops Broncos knew an acid test was coming on Saturday. When it arrived, the Broncos found out they still aren’t ready to hang with the league’s best. The Okanagan Sun blanked the Broncos 36-0 at the Apple Bowl in Kelowna. Okanagan (2-0) compiled 465 yards of net offence, while Kamloops (1-1) managed only 114 yards of net offence. Sun quarterback Nick Wenman lit

Five Kamloops ball carriers combined for 33 yards on nine carries. The Westshore Rebels of Langford will come to Kamloops to play the Broncos on Saturday. Game time is 6 p.m. at Hillside Stadium. Westshore opened the season with a 17-15 loss to Okanagan, but bounced back on Saturday with a 27-25 victory over the Vancouver Island Raiders in Nanaimo.

STILL MORE MARBLES
You have some marbles, each of one colour of red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet.
The number of green marbles is one-quarter of the number of all of the other marbles. The number of blue marbles is the square root of the number of orange marbles. (A square root of a number is a number that multiplied by itself equals the original number. The square root of 4 is 2 since 2 X 2 = 4.) The number of red marbles is the cube of the number of violet marbles. (27 is the cube of 3 as 3 X 3 X 3 = 27.) The six numbers of marbles are all different, and each is in the range of one to nine. Given the above clues, how many of each colour do you have?

Obituaries & In Memoriam Wilfred “Bill” Joseph Christopher Charron
February 2, 1929 – Ottawa, Ontario July 6, 2017 – Calgary, AB It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Bill Charron of Calgary, Alberta on July 6, 2017 at the age of 88 years. Bill was born and raised in Ottawa, Ontario and joined the Royal Canadian Air Force in September of 1950. After two years of service in Ottawa, Bill met and married Pat. They jetted off to Three Wing, Zweibrucken in Germany for a three-year posting from 1955-1958 where they travelled around Europe making life-long friends inside and outside the Air Force. Returning to Canada in 1958, they took several postings across the country while raising their three daughters – “Larry, Curly and Mo”. Bill retired from the RCAF in 1977 and moved the family back to their favourite posting of Kamloops, BC. He then joined the CUPE Union and worked at Westsyde Secondary School until retirement in 1991. Bill and Pat travelled to many foreign locations in the years following. Bill was a member of the Irish Culture Society in Kamloops and the RCAF Association. Bill moved to Calgary in 2005 and spent his time travelling for several years with and without his daughters. He loved spending time with his family and always enjoyed the big and famous Charron Family dinners on long weekends and holidays. During his leisure time, Bill baked and socialized with friends and neighbours in his condo complex along with participating in group-jigsaw puzzle events, bingo, crib games and movie nights. Bill was a wonderful Dad to his girls and his sense of humour was best served by surprising them with his antics. He often joked that he should have had 18 boys. Cindy always claimed to be able to out-run Bill and he always let her – leading to much laughter and teasing; until the day he caught her. The tables were turned and
Cindy was beyond shocked. Cathy is easily embarrassed and Bill took full-loving advantage of that by ‘losing’ her in the department store and then simply ‘yell’ for her until she either hid in a clothes rack or ran to him red-faced and giggling. Bill was a lot of fun at the grocery store and loved to break the boredom of it all by throwing bags of frozen vegetables at Heather, bringing on admonishing looks from Pat; and then one day a bag of peas was not caught in Coopers Market and someone was banned from grocery day. There’s a special place in Heaven for a Father of three girls. Bill leaves behind his loving daughters Cindy McIvor of Rocky Mountain House, Cathy (Bruce) Skorobohach and Heather Charron both of Calgary, Alberta, six grandchildren Christopher (Angie) McIvor, Alexandra, Orrie and Camille McIvor and Michael and Cayley Skorobohach as well as three great-grandchildren Lawson, Morgan and Julie. Bill was predeceased by his beloved wife Mary Patricia “Pat” Charron (nee Charlebois) and son-in-law Harold “Sandy” McIvor of Rocky Mountain House. The Family thanks the doctors and staff of Beverly Age Care Centre for their time and effort during the last year. Blessing to be held at Hillside Cemetery, 750 Notre Dame Dr, Kamloops, BC on Friday, August 11, 2017 at 11:00 am. Condolences may be forwarded through www.mcinnisandholloway.com. In living memory of Bill Charron, a tree will be planted at Fish Creek Provincial Park by McINNIS & HOLLOWAY FUNERAL HOMES, Fish Creek, 14441 Bannister Road S.E., Calgary, AB Telephone: 403-256-9575.

They say there is a reason, they say time will heal Neither time or reason will change the way I feel Gone are the days we used to share But in my heart you are always there The gates of memories will never close I miss you more than anybody knows
Love you and Miss you everyday
Iris
In Memory of my Mum in Heaven If Roses grow in Heaven Lord, please pick a bunch for me. Place them in my Mother’s arms and tell her they’re from me. Tell her that I love her and miss her. and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for awhile. Because remembering her is easy, I do it every day, But there’s and ache within my heart that will never go away.
Always remembered
Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glint on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you wake in the morning hush, I am the swift, uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circling flight. I am the soft starlight at night. Do not stand at my grave and weep. I am not there, I do not sleep. Do not stand at my grave and cry. I am not there, I did not die!

REMEMBER By Christina Rossetti
Remember me when I am gone away, Gone far away into the silent land; When you can go no more hold me by the hand, Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay. Remember me when no more day by day
They say there is a reason They say that time will heal But neither time nor reason Will change the way we feel For no-one knows the heartache That lies behind our smiles No-one knows how many times We have broken down and cried We want to tell you something So there won’t be any doubt You’re so wonderful to think of But so hard to be without.
Love you always, and miss you so much. Forever in our hearts. Love you Kid!
Lenny and Ben
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.

Forever in Our Hearts
Love you Forever Heather; Adam, Jenn, Rylan, Cole; Derek, Terine
A million times we needed you, A million times we cried, If love alone would have saved you, You would of never died. In life we loved you dearly, In death we love you still, In our hearts you hold a place, No one can ever fill. A light from our household is gone, A voice from our love is stilled, A place in our vacant home, Which never can be filled. Some may think you are forgotten, Though on earth you are no more, But in our memory you are with us, As you always were before. It broke our hearts to lose you, But you did not go alone, A part of us went with you, The day God called you home. Your precious memories are for keepsakes, with which we never part, God has you safely in his keeping, But we have you forever in our hearts

Remembering John Matisz
October 3, 1936 - August 3, 2017 It is with great sadness we announce the sudden, unexpected passing of our endearing husband, father, grandfather and friend, John, at the age of 80 in Kamloops, BC. Survived by his loving wife, Marmie Matisz and her children Mara (Dean Audet) of Kamloops, Judy(Dennis Vidaurri) of Lynden WA, Janey(Steve Komm) of Burnaby, Sandy Cunningham(Julianne Pollock) of Cardston, Alvin Cunningham of Courtney, Evelyn( Zak Murakami) of Lethbridge and 18 grandchildren namely; Ty, Tiara, Sharly, Lacey, Enzo, Gio, Angelina, Elizabeth, Spencer, Walker, James, Rupert, Freddie, Beatrice, Jace, Nellie, Clara, and Leo. Also survived by Evelyn Ferguson, mother of Gregory Matisz of Victoria and daughter Lisa and grandchildren Sierra and Koby of Kamloops. John is remembered by his brothers Joszef, Mihaj and sister Gizella. He is predeceased by his parents Joszef Matisz and Borbala (Orosz) of Hungary. John Matisz was born to a good family in Sarospatak, Hungary, Oct. 3rd, 1936. He was athletic and loved soccer. He attended trade school, taking mechanics, machining and welding; finishing all three in one year. John fought with civilians during the Hungarian revolution of 1956. He fled to Austria, then immigrated to Canada in 1957 by boat first to Halifax and then by train to Edmonton and southward to Taber. He earned enough money on the sugar beat farms to eventually buy a truck and drive to Kamloops. Kamloops reminded John of his hometown in Hungary so he stayed. For a while, he managed a local band called Johnny and His Starlights; singing and even playing the accordion. In time, he established Johnny's Welding and worked road construction jobs. During his retirement, John enjoyed almost 20 years of Christmas festivities being the centre of attention at North Hills Mall. John was a fun loving, happy person who made friends easily and always had a jovial greeting for all. He will be warmly remembered and cherished by family and friends. A Graveside Memorial will take place at 1pm on August 9th, 2017 at the Chase Cemetery with Brian Arnold officiating. Special Thanks to the staff of Home Health Care for their consistent, noteworthy support; John and Deni Tallen's deliberate kindness; EMResponders and friends. Condolences may be expressed to the family from www.myalternatives.ca
