Kamloops Mounties raided a store that sells marijuana and arrested two employees. Cpl. Jodi Shelkie said police executed a search warrant at Canna Clinic on Hillside Drive in Dufferin on Monday morning to collect evidence pertaining to the possession and trafficking of controlled substances. “Once the evidence is collected and ana-
lyzed, the case will be referred to the public prosecution service for consideration of potential charges,” Shelkie said. Shelkie told KTW police deal with each marijuana dispensary on a case-by-case basis, noting other dispensaries in the city could be shut down in the near future. “Going forward from here, we may be looking at the other ones as well,” Shelkie said. She said police have received multiple complaints regarding Canna Clinic, includ-
ing some about odour, negative clientele and “illegal operations ongoing.” The City of Kamloops issued cease and desist orders to marijuana dispensaries in town earlier this year. Shelkie said the RCMP’s decision to raid Canna Clinic was made independent of the municipality. “The city doesn’t tell us what to do,” she said. See COMPLAINTS, A12

More than 100 of the best under-20 hockey players in the world will come to Kamloops for the World Junior Summer Showcase, which will run from July 28 to Aug. 4 at Sandman Centre. Canada, the U.S., Finland and Sweden will use the 11-game, six-team tournament to help determine rosters for the 2019 World Junior Hockey Championship, which will be held in Vancouver and Victoria from Dec. 26 to Jan. 5. The Americans and Canadians will ice two teams each. “Hockey Canada was looking for an opportunity to be in a community where they had some success in the past,” said Norm Daley, co-chairman for the host organizing committee. “The Interior of B.C. was a spot they were looking to because of proximity to the Lower Mainland.” Kamloops played host to the 2016 IIHF World Women’s Hockey Championship. The 2017 summer showcase was held in Plymouth, Mich. Of the 144 players who participated, 116 were drafted or signed by an NHL club, including 65 who were first- or second-round selections. The 2018 world juniors were held in Buffalo. Last year, TSN and NHL Network televised the final three days of the showcase, airing six games. The schedule for this year’s tournament has not yet been finalized. “I think it’s going to be a pretty big event in the community,” said Daley, whose co-chairman is Jon Pankuch, president of the Kamloops Minor Hockey Association. “There will be a lot of people here in the hot days of summer and we will have the chance to see some pretty amazing hockey.” Daley said it will cost $99 for the 11-game package, noting organizers also hope to raise money for the Kamloops Minor Hockey Association.

Rising river levels are being seen across the southern Interior,
from Kamloops to 100 Mile House and from Cache Creek to Merritt
and into the Okanagan, said David Campbell, head of the BC River

Forecast Centre. “There’s a lot of terrain in there that’s 1,200 to 1,600 metres [in elevation] and that’s where we’re getting a lot of rapid melt right now, so pretty much any tributary creek in that region’s anticipated to be flowing quite heavily and will continue to do so for the next few days,” Campbell said. Mid-elevation snow melt has been ongoing throughout the province with high elevation (above 1,500 metres) just starting to follow suit. Warm weather and rain is in the forecast this week, which is a concern for more flooding around the B.C. Interior, Campbell said. For Kamloops, there is a 60 per cent chance of rain on Wednesday and Thursday, with temperatures ranging in the mid-20s, according to Environment Canada. Around the province, mid-elevation snow melt has been ongoing for the past 10 days, Campbell said. The centre released its May 1 snow pack bulletin on Monday, with the numbers showing an increased flood risk from the South Thompson basin, but near-normal numbers from the North Thompson basin. Snow pack in the South Thompson is sitting at 126 per cent of normal, up sharply from 109 per cent from the April snow pack report. The North Thompson snow pack is at 108 per cent of normal, down a percentage point from last month. Campbell said the Thompson watershed hasn’t yet experienced a significant rise in water levels. He said there is more snow in the high mountain terrain that feeds into the Thompson watershed and expects the South Thompson River to peak in June and the North Thompson River to do likewise a bit earlier. A flood watch remains in effect for the central Interior streams in the Kamloops area, including the Bonaparte River, Nicola River, Guichon Creek and tributary rivers around Cache Creek and Merritt.

Helping hands amid the floodwaters MICHAEL POTESTIO STAFF REPORTER michael@kamloopsthisweek.com
People from throughout the Kamloops area, many of whom did not know each other, were at Cherry Creek Ranch on the weekend, filling sandbags for those battling the ongoing flooding. “We just figured [we] could be at home enjoying ourselves or there’s people fighting for their houses, why not stop and help them out?” said Aberdeen resident Jeremy Epp, who came to the ranch with his wife and their two young boys. Volunteers were working hard and everyone had a part to play. Those with a shovel funnelled four scoops of sand through an orange pylon into a bag, held by another volunteer who passed it off to be tied up before adding it to the pile. Mark Gilder of Kamloops was one of many volunteers busy shovelling on Sunday. “We’re just going to do what we can and help out,” said Gilder. “I was going to go down to the rodeo today, but I figured this would be a little more productive.” Stephanie Maurice, who rents a place in Cherry Creek that has not been affected by the rising water, said after hearing there was a short-

age of helping hands, she decided to head to the ranch to help fill sandbags for a few hours. The beginning of freshet season has hit tributaries in the Kamloops area hard, with Cherry Creek west of Kamloops transforming from a babbling brook into a raging river. A state of emergency for the unincorporated area has been declared as the creek continues to rise and flood properties. Water was rushing over Beaton Road last week and, by this past weekend, the road had been washed out completely for the second consecutive year. Last week, the Thompson-Nicola Regional District dropped off sand for Cherry Creek Ranch owner Alan Schmidt. Since then, his property has evolved into a de facto staging area for sandbag production in Cherry Creek, he told KTW. He said it all came together after a group of locals offered to load up their trucks with extra sandbags to deliver to others in need. “It went from just bagging for the property here to the bags going to multiple sites and it wasn’t really planned that way, it just sort of happened,” Schmidt said, noting the ranch became a convenient, central location to produce sandbags given the ample parking and safe distance from the highway.

For the first part of the week, the sandbagging effort consisted of just a core group of locals, but soon more volunteers showed up, having heard about a need to help fill sandbags, Schmidt said. “I would say starting Thursday, it’s just grown and grown,” he said. “You could come here at 10 a.m. and you’d see a group and you come here at four and it’s a completely different group,” he said. Schmidt said there were volunteers making sandbags until 1 a.m. on Friday. “The creek has been steadily rising,” Schmidt said. “People have been trying to keep up with what’s happening, but then all of a sudden it’ll surge.” Schmidt had to shore up a bank with sandbags to keep the river away from a barn on his property. “There’s a whole host of situations up and down the creek,” he said. While the flooding has been a stressful situation, Schmidt said it’s heartening to see people come together to help each other, noting the production area that has formed on his property has become a great way for people to get to know their neighbours. “Last night and Friday night, it’s actually a really fun time,” he said. “We’ve had the barbecue going and all the food and drinks that have been donated, but it’s back-breaking work.”

Disc golfers say course can co-exist with passive space JESSICA WALLACE
STAFF REPORTER
jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com
Every disc golf course from Kamloops to the Lower Mainland has co-existed with nature in passive park space, says the vicepresident of the Kamloops Disc Golf Club. “We thought that we were the naturalists,” Chris Wilson told KTW. Calling disc golf a “lowimpact” sport, Wilson said he was disappointed by the response from the Kamloops Naturalist Club about the two groups tentatively sharing more than seven hectares of space at McArthur Island formerly occupied by a golf course. The city regained control of the nine-hole pitch and putt last year after Bill Bilton, who operated the course for 25 years, gave up his lease following flood damage on the property. City council voted 5-4 in its regular meeting Tuesday to develop concepts with both groups. A timeline has not yet been established, but meetings are expected to begin soon. The area is slated to be open to the public in 2019. The city said the open houses regarding what to do with the space were well attended and more than 1,300 people took part in its survey. “The most popular response, by a wide margin, was to leave the property as a natural, passive area with trails and an educational component,” a report to council states. “The next most popular option was a disc golf course.” Staff are asking for council’s support to work with both clubs to develop and cost out plans. Over the weekend, however, the Kamloops Naturalist Club went online to call disc golf on the property “concerning.” “Disc golf is an awesome sport with a friendly group of local players. We encourage people to check out the course that

already exists in the Rose Hill area. Unfortunately, this sport is incompatible with ideas put forward by a majority of respondents,” the statement reads. Wilson said the city’s lone disc golf course in Rose Hill is a difficult track — not ideal for beginners — and isn’t accessible via bus route. He’d like to grow the sport in the River City, with courses shuttering in the past due to development. Naturalist Club director Jesse Ritcey has since told KTW the group is willing to work with the city and the disc golf club to designate a portion of the park for a contained disc golf track. “There is a potential for compromise,” he said. The club is concerned about safety for park users, disrupting animal habitats and spreading invasive weeds. Ritcey said great horned owls nest in the trees and deer frequent the park. The club has observed 38 bird species and 60 plant species, as well as reptiles, mammals and insects in the area. The naturalist club wants to see the space used as a passive park with an interpretive centre. It received letters of support for its proposal from several community partners, including the Thompson Shuswap Master Gardeners Association, Big
Little Science Centre, Kamloops Beekeepers Club and Thompson Rivers University’s dean of science. Wilson’s vision for a disc golf course differs from Ritcey’s. Wilson would like to see the track run throughout the entirety of the seven hectares (not necessarily following holes from the former golf course), with trails, picnic areas and educational opportunities planned around the holes. Wilson said disc golfers would give park users the right of way and noted trails already co-exist with soccer fields, ball diamonds and a skateboard park at McArthur Island. Kamloops is the Tournament Capital, he added, noting a disc golf course could help the city land the Disc Golf World Championship, which has never left the United States. “It’s [McArthur Island] a sports jewel,” Wilson said. City staff are also requesting council approve $35,000 to convert the former clubhouse into a functional work space and move parks operations into the building. The Naturalist Club’s proposal envisioned that building as a storefront and plaza, offering educational opportunities and a hub for agri- and eco-tourism information to locals and visitors.

Help mould downtown plan The City of Kamloops is seeking public input for a new plan that will dictate land use in the city’s core. The Downtown Plan replaces the City Centre Plan from 2005 and provides direction to the city for land management in the downtown, Sagebrush and West End neighbourhoods. Public consultations will begin mid-month and continue through July. The plan won’t likely be adopted until next year. The public can weigh in at the following events: • Saturday May 12: Information booth from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Kamloops Farmers’ Market, 200 block of St. Paul St.;
• Wednesday, May 16: Local business open house from 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. in the Valley First Lounge at Sandman Centre. • Thursday, May 17: Community open house from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. in the Valley First Lounge at Sandman Centre; The latter two events require RSVP by emailing letstalkdowntown@kamloops.ca. City staff will also hit the streets downtown during lunch hours this month to seek impromptu public feedback. For those who can’t offer feedback in person, a survey is available online at kamloops.ca/ downtownplan.

Biosolids issue leads to creation of groups by city and residents

JESSICA WALLACE STAFF REPORTER jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com
As the City of Kamloops hosted its first stakeholder committee meeting to address long-term biosolids management, a group of Barnhartvale residents, frustrated over the continued dumping of human waste in their neighbourhood, has also assembled. Robin’s Range Road homeowner Dustin Adams is among about 20 residents who make up Neighbours Against Sludge. The group wants a stop to biosolids being dumped on ranch land in Barnhartvale. Adams said the group has concerns about the smell — which apparently led to the evacuation of one household due to the stench — and unknown impacts on the watershed and food supply. “It’s something that is a problem and it’s going to continue and it’s going to grow because it’s something that we produce every day,” Adams said. Biosolids result from wastewater treatment in a sewage-treatment facility. The city has been working for just under a year with Stantec Consulting to develop a long-term strategy to manage them in Kamloops. Biosolids are used by ranches in and around the city and the Thompson-Nicola Regional District region as a soil amendment. A new biosolids committee spearheaded by the city met for the first time on Thursday. “We’re looking to find a long-term solution,” Greg Wightman, the city’s utility services manager, told KTW. The Biosolids Management Stakeholder Committee is made up of city staff and council, along with representation from the TNRD, Tk’emlups te Secwepemc, Interior Health, First Nations Health Authority, Kamloops Stockmen’s Association and the Fraser Basin Council. Wightman said a long-term plan will include a range of applications. “We’re looking at biosolids-management technologies literally from around the world,” Wightman said. Wightman said the public can go online and subscribe to updates from the committee about how planning is progressing and what the committee is doing. Asked if there will be an opportunity for the public to weigh in through a face-to-face capacity, Wightman said he’s not certain, but noted part of the committee’s task will be to devise ways to seek public input. “The public definitely will have the opportunity to stay informed and then provide feedback once we have some evaluation criteria developed,” he said. That’s not good enough for Adams. He said a lack of support from the city and Ministry of Environment resulted in Barnhartvale residents delivering a 490-signature petition to one ranch, which has apparently since advised the group it will no longer dispense biosolids on its land. Next steps for the city include compiling a list of options and establishing an evaluation process based on economic, environmental and social impact. The next committee meeting will be held before the end of May. The city produces about 12,500 tonnes of biosolids each year.

SPEAKING OUT FOR SEXUAL IDENTITIES
H
eroes come in all sizes. If that basic truth didn’t register before, it should after nine-year-old Michael Boyd made the decision at the scene of two competing rallies in Vancouver recently to offer himself up as a veritable poster child for the pro-SOGI 123 move-
ment. Of course, it shouldn’t really matter what side of the argument you fall on to see strength of character in Boyd’s actions. Regardless of whether you are for or against the pilot project that aims to create inclusive classrooms for students of all sexual orientations and gender identities, you can applaud a child for being willing to reveal a most personal side of his own identity to fight for an issue that affects him and others personally. Public opponents of the provincial SOGI (Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity) education program certainly show their strength of character in their own ways, allowing themselves to be labelled intolerant, homophobic and arguably worse by those who can’t comprehend what drives them to speak out on an issue that appears not to affect their own lifestyles. Indeed, one can only assume that they, too, are doing what they know to be right. However, while proclaiming one’s opinion on an issue may get it heard, getting it understood can be an entirely different matter. In Boyd’s case, his point is clear. He wants to be able to live his life as he sees himself in a safe, comfortable, welcoming environment. The reason SOGI opponents protest is not as clear. They seem to believe that because society has in the past promoted and accepted two genders, that’s all there should be, now and forever more. If there’s more to their argument, handmade signs that spout such slogans as “God created man and woman” and “Stop child abuse by the Ministry of Education” don’t really make it understood, while printed signs like “Parents have rights” and “Don’t mess with our children” could certainly be proclaimed by all sides. — Peace Arch News

Kudos to health care
A
little over a year ago, I wrote a column about a telephone call and how it turned not just my life, but that of so many others completely upside down. It took a few weeks to put it together and out there because first there was telling my husband and five children I had cancer. Then I had to tell the boss and my co-workers. I told my best friend — beyond my hubby — and, yes, she and I cried a bit together. Then there was the column, the last I wrote before heading off to deal with the nasty little demon that had rocked my family’s world. The process in the past year has been fascinating to live through and speaks volumes about all of the great things in our health-care system that rarely make the news. We need to backtrack to before the diagnosis to start this journey. We are blessed to have such an amazing mammogram clinic across from Royal Inland Hospital. The staff there are fantastic. I dealt with two women in the RIH mammogram clinic for the next test, one I nicknamed Ninja because she snuck up on me to get it all going and the other I tagged as Cheerleader because she was just so darned optimistic and happy. And, while I was getting squished and squeezed, all I could think about was, “Gee, this is the equipment Anthony Salituro and his amazing aunt bought.” There were two biopsies required, one with Ninja back in her stealth form and the other

LEVEL with a technician who may have identified herself, but I don’t remember. She worked with Dr. Bob Walter on that test and, while stressful, they made sure it was all explained and over with quickly. My family physician, Dr. Peter Gorman, was at his absolute kindest when he called with the final diagnosis and moved quickly to get me in to see Dr. Anise Barton, the oncological surgeon who is simply amazing. Think about it, curious reporter in the exam room. There were bound to be questions — lots and lots and lots of questions. She answered every one and has continued to do that through the past year. Waking from the surgery to see her standing there smiling and telling me she and the rest in the operating room had got all of the tumour was something that even a longtime writer simply cannot put into words. I can’t forget Dr. Juanita Crook, even though I only saw her once, because after that meeting, hubby and I were pretty clear on what the next steps would involve and
why chemo wasn’t necessary, but radiation was wise. I met my oncologist only twice because she was in the process of moving to Abbotsford. I never did learn her first name — she remains Dr. Nguyen to me — but like Barton, she was patient and understanding and tolerated the barrage of questions. And there were the boys on the bus, but they got their own column of thanks already. I continue to hope they’re all doing well. The purpose of this column is not only to thank all of those people who just do their jobs every day and change people’s lives in doing so, but to point out that, while we might complain about health care often — and lord knows I’ve done my share of stories on people upset with it — it’s still there when we need it. And there are wonderful, kind, dedicated people who keep it running, even if it runs slowly or sometimes stops for a while. As for me, I saw Barton a couple of weeks ago for the one-year checkup and, while doctors know to never say never, she pretty much said the prognosis is one of the best ones a person can ask for. The tumour is gone, the cells had not spread to other places and, if I keep on taking my cancerfighting pill every day, things should just keep on getting better. I must say, however, it’s good to be able to write this column. My story isn’t the same as many other people who battle cancer — but they go into it knowing people like those I encountered are there rooting for them. dale@kamloopsthisweek.com Twitter: @mdalebass

Editor: I recently witnessed a baby being completely calmed down by the simple act of breastfeeding. I was on a plane soaring toward our cruising altitude of 28,000 feet and, of course, this was wreaking havoc on that small child’s eardrums. While the sucking released pressure on her ears, it also provided deep comfort. It gave me pause to consider just how lucky that child was to receive comfort, minerals, vitamins and even immunity from one simple natural source. Aug. 1 to Aug. 7 is World Breastfeeding Week and, as our Minister of Foreign Affairs noted, empowering
women and girls “is a matter of basic justice and also basic economics.” Before we know it, those children who are lucky enough to receive an education, will return to the class room. Equality begins before birth and directly thereafter with the benefits of breastfeeding. Good nutrition ensures an ability to learn and Canada’s international assistance contributes to a world where every child has the opportunity to thrive.

Large black bear could be in Sahali, officials say MICHAEL POTESTIO
STAFF REPORTER
michael@kamloopsthisweek.com
It appears a large black bear spotted routing through garbage cans in Aberdeen may have moved to the Sahali area. On Friday, the Conservation Officer Service (COS) received three calls regarding the bear, which
was spoted roaming Telford, Dunrobin and Galbraith drives that morning. Conservation officer Jim Melenka said the bear was nowhere to be found when he attended the scene and residents were urged to manage their attractants by not leaving garbage cans out, cleaning out any garbage in them and
keeping an eye on their barbecues and bird feeders. No other sightings of the bear were received from that area over the weekend, but Melenka received six calls of a bear matching the description of the Aberdeen bear from residents on Arrowstone Drive in Sahali on Sunday. Arrowstone Drive

runs from the back of Sa-Hali Centre Mall to the edge of Peterson Creek. Sa-Hali secondary lies in between. “I believe it’s probably the same bear [from Aberdeen], that made its way through different green spaces, but can’t say for sure,” Melenka said. He said no injuries or property damage were reported and the residents who called in were also advised to manage their attractants. “They’re right on the edge of Peterson Creek and [I] advised them that this is the time of year bears are in

that are utilizing those green spaces,” Melenka said. The bear had been spotted eating garbage a number of times and tried accessing a bar-
becue as well, Melenka said. As with Aberdeen, the hope is the bear will leave the area on its own accord, but residents will need to
do their part to ensure it doesn’t continue accessing non-natural food sources. Anyone who comes across this bear should stay calm, walk away and remain in their home. Anyone who spots a bear can report it to the COS by calling 1-877952-7277. Melenka said sometimes people, concerned the COS will simply just shoot the bear, won’t make the call, which only gives the animal more time to eat garbage and become habituated to humans, ensuring its destruction.

A Kamloops man is behind bars after allegedly hitting his neighbour in the head with a rock, then spitting twice in the face of a police officer after his arrest. Casey Heinrichs, 26, is facing one count each of assault with a weapon and assaulting a peace officer stemming from an incident on Thursday night at the Crossroads Inn in downtown Kamloops. Police were called to the social-housing facility at Seymour Street and Sixth Avenue just before 11 p.m. for
a report of an assault. Officers arrived to find paramedics tending to a man bleeding from his head. Crown prosecutor Will Burrows said the victim told police he had been in his firstfloor room having a disagreement with another resident of the building. “There were a number of rocks there and they began to argue,” Burrows said. “He was hit on the head with a rock and he started bleeding right away. He said the accused hit him right in the middle of the head and it was split open.” A Crossroads employee told Mounties the culprit retreated to

Chamber offers leadership MICHAEL POTESTIO
STAFF REPORTER
michael@kamloopsthisweek.com
In order to teach business managers how to get the most out of their multi-generational workforce, the Kamloops Chamber of Commerce has partnered with a local consulting company to offer a new program unlike anything they’ve ever had. “We are introducing a local, eight-month leadership certificate program called Leadership Kamloops,” said chamber president Joshua Knaak. The schedule will see participants take part in eight fourhour small group modules, each building on the last, graduating with a certificate of completion from the chamber at the end of the session. Classes are geared towards managers responsible for multiple people and will focus on teaching the “soft skills” of leadership. “Talking about conflict man-
agement, talking about how to gain that respect in your team, not just as a leader, but as a team member as well,” said chamber executive director Deb McClelland. Focus groups with Millennial workers and calls from chamber membership over the last two year determined there was a gap that needed to be addressed with a program like this, McClelland said. To offer the program, the chamber has partnered with local business New Quest Coaching & Consulting. Founder Shane Jensen, who will teach the program, said teaching how to lead, motivate and engage employees from different generations — whether they be Baby Boomers, Generation X or Millennials — will be a very important part of the program. McClelland said she believes the chamber of commerce has a responsibility “to help develop our leaders of tomorrow.” “Putting this program togeth-
er has been a longtime dream of mine,” she said. She said the offering an indepth training program like this is a relatively new endeavour for the Kamloops chamber. “Years ago, we did do something in conjunction with the B.C. Chamber of Commerce, it just wasn’t focused on those soft skills so much that we really believe are lacking and desperately needed in our workforce,” she said. Jensen said he believes this program will be great for Kamloops. There are 12 people to a cohort, meaning each manager will receive the individual attention they need to address their particular needs,” Knaak said. Jensen said if the demand is great enough they may run a second class. Applications are currently being accepted and can be obtained by going online to the Kamloops Chamber of Commerce website at kamloops chamber.ca
New playground at Summit school The Kamloops-Thompson school district will receive $90,000 to create a new playground at Summit elementary. The money is part of a new ongoing program that will see new playgrounds built at 51 schools in B.C. this year. Decisions are based on need. “I’ve heard from parents that they need relief from fundraising tens of thousands of dollars for playground equipment – that’s a lot of bake sales and bottle drives for today’s busy parents,” said Rob Fleming, Minister of Education.
“Today, we’re delivering this fund to help parents, and provide access to communities that don’t have the fundraising capacity to buy the play equipment students need.” The parent-advisory committee at the Monarch Court had tried in the past to secure money to upgrade the playground through the Aviva Community Fund. In its application to it, it noted the playground wasn’t safe for children to use and many of the aging structures were being removed. The PAC said had raised $12,000 but couldn’t reach
out to parents for more. “This new program will alleviate some of the inequities in parent fundraising, and enable PACs to strengthen their advisory and advocacy roles,” said Jen Mezei, president of the B.C. Confederation of Parent Advisory Councils. “We believe that safe and accessible playgrounds should not be dependent on a school community’s ability to raise funds, and for too long have felt the burden to ensure schools and school communities have safe and engaging play spaces.”

“Also, the RCMP have advised that this business’s activity is prohibited by the Criminal Code and the Controlled Drug and Substance Act,” Martin said. “Currently, none of the cannabis dispensaries operating within the City of Kamloops have a valid business licence and have been encouraged to close their operation until they have received a provincial cannabis retail licence and a valid City of Kamloops business licence.” Staff Sgt. Simon Pillay spoke of the bust. “Ideally, the RCMP would like to use the least amount of enforcement to deal with people who perpetuate criminality through these illegal cannabis retail stores. But
when businesses blatantly break the law and fail to follow the city’s bylaws and zoning regulations, then police must act.” While the federal government intends to introduce legislation later this year to legalize recreational marijuana, it remains an illegal substance and its sale is prohibited. Those with prescriptions for medical marijuana must obtain it via mail through Health Canada. There are a number of stores in Kamloops that sell pot. Canna Clinic has been the subject of complaints from residents living in the condo units above the commercial stores.
Lawyer says city not cannabis friendly TIM PETRUK STAFF REPORTER tim@kamloopsthisweek.com
The latest move by police to crack down on cannabis storefronts is a “troubling” sign of the City of Kamloops’ anti-pot agenda, according to a local lawyer who advocates for medical marijuana users and so-called compassion clubs. The raid on the Canna Clinic retail storefront on Hillside Drive in Dufferin came six weeks after local marijuana retailers received letters from city hall urging them to cease grey-area operations ahead of cannabis legal-
ization, which is slated to take place at the federal level at some point this year. The city had previously decided not to licence pot retailers prior to federal legalization, leaving the businesses on murky legal ground. Lawyer Shawn Buckley said the March letter resulted in about half of the city’s 11 storefronts deciding to shut down. “Our city is creating its own problem,” he said. “People have a constitutional right. When the city is saying it’s illegal, it’s only illegal because the city chooses not to issue business licences. It’s truly troubling.”
Some municipalities have chosen to licence and regulate grey-area pot stores. Buckley called the City of Kamloops’ decision not to take similar steps “mean-spirited” and said it is impacting the quality of life for some Tournament Capital residents. Neighbours of Canna Clinic were singing a different tune on Monday, watching police haul evidence out of a business they have been complaining about for the better part of two years. “It’s long overdue,” said John Stewart, who lives in the condos above Canna Clinic, “They should have done this about 18 months ago.”

For years, Bill tried to find a T-Bird his wife would love as much as she loved that ‘63 vehicle, but to no avail. Bill was finally able to convince the owner in Calgary to sell the car back to him. This past Saturday at the Princess Auto Show and Shine in the Valleyview Shopping Centre parking lot, Bill surprised his wife with the news that the Thunderbird she was admiring was indeed hers once again.

Fundraiser for Shtuka family at Red Collar Red Collar will host a fundraiser this Saturday for the family of Ryan Shtuka, the 20-year-old man who vanished from Sun Peaks Resort on Feb. 17. The fundraiser will be held from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. and will include a silent auction, a 50/50 draw and a raffle for prizes. In addition, the craft brewery at 355 Lansdowne St. will be donating proceeds from a special keg to the Shtuka family, along with 50 cents from every pint of beer sold during the event. Entertainment will be provided by Jared Doherty, Abby Wale, Margit Sky Project,
James and the North Shore, Echo Beach and Jackson Marshall and The Jims. Ryan’s parents, Scott and Heather, are expected to be at the Red Collar during the fundraiser. The family from Beaumont, Alta., just south of Edmonton, has been at Sun Peaks since shortly after Ryan disappeared, organizing various searches, thus far without success. Last seen leaving a house party on Burfield Drive at about 2:10 a.m. on Feb. 17 — a Saturday — Ryan is believed to have walked the short distance to his home in Sun Peaks. When he did not
Green Bike Lanes Come to Kamloops! Green paint will be appearing on Hugh Allan Drive, between Versatile Drive and Pacific Way, and the intersection of Highland Road and Valleyview Drive in May. Green paint increases the visibility of the cycling facility, promotes all users to use extra caution at intersections, and reminds drivers to slow down and watch for cyclists. Drivers will continue in their lanes as normal and follow regular traffic rules. Motorists are not permitted to cross over solid bike lanes unless they are turning into or out of intersecting roadways, laneways, driveways, or parking spots.
The Pacific Northwest Cup challenged Jaras to design a bridal bouquet with roses and tropical flowers, something appropriate for the opening of an Apple store and a bohemian wedding style of floral crown. His success led to Jaras qualifying for the June 9 to June 11 Gateways to the Americas Cup in Orlando, where he will compete against floral designers from countries such as Mexico, Brazil, Argentina and Columbia. Jaras said he is both excited and a bit nervous as he prepares for his next two international competitions, noting he is already working on ideas ahead of the Orlando competition. Having spent the past 30 years on the retail side of the floral industry, Jaras, who
moved to Kamloops eight years ago, launched a floral design business this past December in an effort to impart his three decades of experience on others through workshops. Jaras’ foray into the floral industry came about by chance while he was visiting a friend who was working in a flower shop in Jaras’ hometown of Edmonton. “The owner was working on a wedding and he asked if we could help and he showed me how to make a corsage,” Jaras said, noting the owner was so impressed with his work that he asked him to make nine more. “That really was the beginning. He offered to teach me the basics [and] I worked for free for him for about a month,” Jaras said, adding he was then lucky enough to land a job in one of the top three
flower shops in Edmonton. “It was a large operation and I was able to work with [an] international group of designers — Vietnam, Germany, England — all longtime florists I was working side by side [with],” he said. When it comes to designing the perfect bouquet, Jaras said one must know the rules and when to break them. “Art and design is governed by pretty widely accepted rules,” he said. Floral competitions are an integral part of Jaras’ business as he looks to build his personal brand in the floral industry. He said next year’s floral Olympics will help him earn “street cred” and open up new opportunities for him to teach. “After 30 years doing it, I have a lot of things I’d like to share,” Jaras said.

SEAN BRADY/KTW Tk’emlups Coun. Katy Gottfriedson and Premier John Horgan speak after touring Horizon North’s manufacturing facilities on Saturday.
MORE JOBS ARE ON THE HORIZON PREMIER VISITS HORIZON NORTH, WHICH IS BUILDING MODULAR HOMES SEAN BRADY STAFF REPORTER sbrady@kamloopsthisweek.com
Premier John Horgan is pointing to companies like Kamloops’ Horizon North as signs of success when it comes to his government’s action on housing in the province. Horizon North will manufacture modular housing for two projects in the city — 62 units at 317 Tranquille Rd. on the North Shore and 52 units at 259 Victoria St. West downtown. Both are expected to be completed before winter. The new units in Kamloops are part of government’s promise to build 2,000 units
of modular supportive housing over two years as part of a $291-million budget line. When Horgan visited the company’s manufacturing facility on the Tk’emlups reserve Saturday morning, he called Horizon North a “progressive company that saw an opportunity to meet the needs of the government and the marketplace. “What we thought was lacking over the last number of years was the inability to bring people together — the expertise of companies such as this and the desire by communities to have housing of all kinds, those are the types of things we can do with the investments we’re mak-
ing,” Horgan told media after touring the facility. Horizon North is just one of several manufacturers in the province that will be producing modular housing as part of the housing push. Others include companies in Kelowna, Penticton, Courtenay and Westbank. Horizon North president and CEO Rod Graham said the company is looking to increase its local workforce by 20 per cent and wants to add 70 jobs in Kamloops. Graham said the company can play a critical role in addressing the gap in housing and is capable of design, engineering, manufacturing, transportation and site setup.
It’s your money and our reputation. We take both seriously.
The Stk’emlúpsemc te Secwepemc Nation (SSN) is asking Kinder Morgan to reroute 60 kilometres of its Trans Mountain pipeline expansion route — a request the energy company said could compromise the viability of the entire $7.4-billion project. The National Energy Board’s hearings into the route of the pipeline expansion ended in Kamloops on Thursday with a presentation by the SSN, which consists of the Tk’emlups and Skeetchestn First Nations. The proposed pipeline route runs through Pípsell — private land south of Kamloops on which the SSN has laid claim. The SSN is requesting a 60-kilometre reroute Kinder Morgan said would take an additional three to four years to consider and could jeopardize the expansion that is already in a tenuous position due to opposition from the provincial government. Members of the SSN told the NEB the pipeline expansion route threatens Secwepemc culture and land. In a rare occurrence, Skeetchestn Chief Ignace presented oral history at the hearing. “I’ve not come here to get the better of anybody,” Ignace said. “I have not come here to cause any heartache or grief to anybody. All I’ve come here is to speak the truth of what I believe and what our ancestors believe is our rightful place here on this land.” Ignace’s testimony did not come without qualification, however, noting his inability to tell the independent federal agency stories in his mother tongue caused “harm” to efforts of reconciliation and healing. Kinder Morgan lawyer Jeremy Barretto said the project was approved by the federal cabinet in part because it follows a pre-existing pipeline route. Kinder Morgan already rerouted the expansion around Jacko Lake south of Kamloops and argued the SSN offered a reroute proposal at the 11th hour. If the SSN rerouting request is granted, Barretto said, it would result in a change in how much of the expansion follows the original pipeline’s route — from 73 per cent to 67 per cent. It is not known how much such a rerouting would cost the Texas-based energy company.

SSN has filed claim to land in area From A16
“It would be the longest deviation of the TMP (Trans Mountain pipeline),” Barretto said. Ignace said Secwepemc ties to the grasslands and forests date back thousands of years. He said the SSN is concerned about negative impacts on wildlife in the area — the nation notes more than 165 culturally significant species — and impacts on the Thompson watershed. In addition, the SSN maintains the land plays a significant role in knowledge sharing between generations and has spiritual significance. In September 2015, the SSN filed with the B.C. Supreme Court land claim in the area, some of which is owned by mining company KGHM Ajax. That claim remains
before the courts. “We’re rightful owners with responsibility for caring for the land,” Ignace said. The two parties presented two versions of an engagement process in the years leading to the hearing. Sunny LeBourdais is the SSN’s project manager for the KGHM Ajax mine proposal in Pípsell, a proposal that was rejected in December by the provincial government. She compared Kinder Morgan to KGHM and noted a lack of a funding agreement, co-ordinator and working groups between the SSN and Kinder Morgan. “I never thought I would be up here talking about how good of a job Ajax did,” LeBourdais said. “I never thought I would see the day — but here I am.”
Kinder Morgan said it has been awaiting response from SSN to do a walkthrough of Pípsell. NEB counsel asked SSN for clarification on the matter. “The response is continuous and has been since 2012 that without an agreement, adequate dialogue, consultation, informed decision, meaningful engagement will not take place,” SSN information manager Travis Marr said. The SSN has said 80 kilometres of the proposed pipeline route and two facilities (Black Pines station and Kamloops terminal) would be located within its territory, including 11 kilometres of the pipeline that would pass through Pípsell. Kinder Morgan has made deals worth $400 million with 33 Aboriginal groups in B.C. Tk’emlups te Secwepemec accepted a $3-million deal in 2016.

Mounties busy near supervised sites JESSICA WALLACE STAFF REPORTER jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com
Areas around the city’s two supervised drug-use sites generated about 1,700 police files during the first three months of 2018. “If you look at our overall social chronic calls for service, they’re overrepresented in the two SCS [supervised consumption sites] sites, compared to the rest of the city,” Kamloops RCMP Supt. Brad Mueller said. In North Kamloops, the highest concentration of calls is focused around 377 Tranquille Rd., with 712 files generated between January and the end of March within a radius of that area. That number is higher on the South Shore, with 984 files generated, primarily in the Stuart Wood
Student fund created
and Crossroads Inn areas. Social chronic calls include a variety of issues, including intoxicated in public, vagrancy, mischief, causing a disturbance, trespassing and breach of peace. About a quarter of calls to police around the supervised drug-use site in the North Shore are related to those social chronic complaints, compared to one-third around the downtown site. “If you look at Kamloops as a collective, 17.4 per cent of all our calls for service in the entire city are from social chronic,” Mueller said. “So you’ll see that here is overrepresentation in those two areas.” Mueller said it impacts police resources, though Kamloops RCMP maintains relationships with partner agencies.
“We’re working collaboratively with them to come up with solutions in terms of how we’re going to deal with some of those issues and I think we are making progress,” he said. “But certainly it speaks to community safety and enforcement perspective, it speaks to the impact it has on our resourcing and our ability to provide public safety throughout the community.” ASK Wellness executive director Bob Hughes took issue with supervised drug-use sites being blamed for the issues. The supervised drug-use sites are at ASK Wellness’s office on the North Shore and at the Crossroads Inn downtown, at which Interior Health’s revamped RV is parked for that purpose. “Is there comparative data
Nursing students at Thompson Rivers University have added a first to their faculty — they have raised enough money to create a perpetual endowment fund.

When they handed over the cheque to the foundation, it was for $20,800.
where you can see the supervised consumption service contributed to increased or had any bearing on changes with the number of reports in those locations?” Hughes asked. Mueller said Kamloops RCMP is in the process of formulating baseline data, with one year of data available in June. “We don’t have that specific data in order to make that baseline comparison because the atoms weren’t in existence prior to this past year,” Mueller said. Kamloops Mounties received more than 10,000 calls for service in the first three months of 2018, up three per cent from the same time in 2017. Meanwhile, Interior Health has reviewed the mobile supervised drug-use site in Kamloops and will
The award will be open to bachelor of science in nursing students in their second through fourth years who can show community engagement outside their studies. That could include anything from sports and community events to conferences and workshops. Details are being completed, but it’s anticipated the annual award will be about $800. The first will be presented early during the next school term.
make a decision soon on changing its hours. An earlier report in a local media outlet that stated the hours would be extended was incorrect. Rae Samson, mental health and substance use manager, said the RV, which provides illicit drugs users a safe, supervised site to use their drugs, “plays an important role in helping to connect an atrisk population that can often be hard to reach with essential lifesaving services.” Samson said those using it also receive “vital point of contact services and harm-reduction supplies in a stigma-free environment. “We won’t be making any decisions about changing the hours of operation until these discussions occur.”

Freeland ‘optimistic’ as she begins critical round of NAFTA talks CANADIAN PRESS
WASHINGTON — Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland is starting her first meeting with the U.S. trade czar, in what could be a days-long effort to complete a NAFTA agreement. Going in, Freeland said she is feeling optimistic. She arrived in Washington on Monday and met her Mexican counterpart to discuss Mexico’s latest suggestions for resolving a key sticking point of these talks: auto parts. Mexico and the U.S. are sharply divided over an American plan that would credit companies for building cars in wealthier, high-wage countries — in other words, outside Mexico. A Mexico-U.S. meeting to resolve those differences ran overtime Monday, delaying Freeland’s first encounter with U.S. counterpart Robert Lighthizer until Tuesday. One big unknown is what happens after an agreement on autos and whether the U.S. will soften other demands in order to get a quick deal.

Dawgs swinging for ninth straight title; WolfPack aim to end streak MARTY HASTINGS
STAFF REPORTER
sports@kamloopsthisweek.com
J
ordy Cunningham is Dawgtired of seeing Prairie Baseball Academy win. The fifth-year outfielder from Ladner was a rookie in 2014 when the hometown PBA Dawgs knocked off his TRU WolfPack 5-1 in the Canadian College Baseball Conference Championship game in Lethbridge. He was a fourth-year veteran last year when PBA crushed TRU’s spirits again, this time with a 4-3 extra-innings victory in the league final in Kelowna. The Dawgs are chasing their eighth straight CCBC crown this year, with the championship tournament set to run from Thursday to Sunday at Norbrock Stadium. “It’s time for them to get taken down,” Cunningham said. “They’re not as good a team this year. It was different playing them this year. They didn’t have the same swagger or mentality. It’s definitely time to take them out.” PBA posted a 6-2 record against TRU in regular-season play and bounced back from a 5-6 start to finish atop league standings with a record of 21-7. “We kind of turned our season around about three weeks ago,” Dawgs’ head coach Todd Hubka told the Lethbridge Herald. “We had a conversation in the locker room and the guys have responded to it.” Local baseball fans excited
for a TRU-PBA final should note the hometown team may not be favoured to reach the big game. The Okanagan College Coyotes (20-8) of Kelowna finished second, TRU (14-16) was third, the Fraser Valley Cascades (11-15) were fourth, the Vancouver Island University Mariners (10-18) were fifth and the Calgary Dinos (8-20) were sixth. Each team will play each other once in round-robin play this week. The top seed will advance to the final, which is scheduled for 1 p.m. on Sunday. The second- and third-place teams will square off in semifinal play. Game time is 10 a.m. on Sunday. TRU will open with a pair of games on Thursday. First pitch is 1 p.m. against Fraser Valley and 7:30 p.m. versus PBA. Two games on Friday — against the Dinos, a 10 a.m. start, and Coyotes, the first pitch at 7 p.m. — will set the stage for the round-robin finale, with the Pack slated to lock horns with the Mariners at 6 p.m. on Saturday. Cunningham cited a deep pitching staff — led by Tyler Hodder of Fort McMurray and Tyler Moskalyk of Thunder Bay — and a red-hot offence as reasons to be confident his Pack can end the Dawgs’ dominance this week.
ANDREW SNUCINS/TRU WOLFPACK TRU WolfPack outfielder Jordy Cunningham knows what it feels like to lose to the Prairie Baseball Academy Dawgs in the Canadian College Baseball Conference final. If those two teams make it to the title tilt again this year, as they did in 2017, the WolfPack are hoping for a different result. The CCBC championship gets underway on Thursday at Norbrock Stadium.
“The offence has been clicking and we’ve really come together as a team,” Cunningham said. “We scored 38 runs on 52 hits this weekend. We’re firing in on all cylinders.” TRU swept Vancouver Island on the weekend, winning 4-2, 11-4, 12-0 and 11-1 at Norbrock Stadium, which has received some extra TLC from City of Kamloops staff in advance of the national championship. There is never any love lost between TRU and PBA. Cunningham remembers how intense the final was in his rookie season. “That game was crazy,” he said. “I couldn’t tell you the score, but I remember arguments with the umpire and multiple people getting ejected. It was a devastat-
ing loss. We fought so hard to get there.” Another gut-wrenching defeat would be hard to palate for Cunningham, who, like the rest of the WolfPack seniors, will not have a shot at redemption next year. “Their pitching isn’t as good as it has been in years past and they’ve made quite a few errors on defence,” Cunningham said. “We can definitely get past them.”
Snider and Rihela tied for the most doubles, with 10 each. Rihela and Adam Filmon were the only TRU players to record triples, with one each. Vance Fode led the team with four homers and 23 RBI. Hillis had a team-leading 27 runs scored and 20 walks. Moskalyk had a team-leading earned-run average of 3.02 and led the league with 67 strikeouts. Hodder was second in the league with 48 strikeouts.
WOLFPACK LEADERS Josh Snider led the WolfPack with a .391 batting average this season. Rounding out the top five, in order, were Liam Rihela (.314), Cunningham (.313), Jackson Dartnell (.303) and Josh Hillis (.302).
STAYING LOCAL There are four players from Kamloops on the WolfPack roster — Bryant Jameus, brothers Connor and Rhys McKenzie and Lucas Lott, each of them graduates of the RiverDogs’ midget AAA team.

Win or go home in Game 7 DONNA SPENCER
THE CANADIAN PRESS
NHL.COM PHOTO Blake Wheeler and the Winnipeg Jets are looking to advance to the NHL’s Western Conference final with a win on Thursday in Nashville.
If the Winnipeg Jets are going to be the first Canadian NHL team in a quarter of a century to win a Stanley Cup, they’ll have to buck a recent trend of this country’s clubs losing the seventh game of a playoff series. The lone Canadian team remaining in
the 2018 playoffs, the Jets have to beat the Nashville Predators in Thursday’s Game 7 for the right to face the expansion Vegas Golden Knights in the Western Conference final. Of Canada’s seven NHL teams, six have lost their most recent Game 7, and some have done it in dagger-tothe-heart, eye-rolling style.
The fun fact that a Canadian club hasn’t won a Stanley Cup since the Montreal Canadiens in 1993 isn’t so fun anymore. A Canadian team hasn’t played in a Cup final since 2011 when the Vancouver Canucks lost in — wait for it — a seventh game to the Boston Bruins. Vancouver, Calgary and Edmonton have all

lost Game 7 of a Cup final since the Habs hoisted the trophy 25 years ago. Montreal is the last Canadian team to win a Game 7, downing the Bruins 3-1 in the final contest of their secondround series in 2014. In the dagger-to-theheart category, Chris Kunitz of the Pittsburgh Penguins scored in double overtime in Game 7 of the 2017 Eastern Conference final to oust the Ottawa. Fresher Game 7 pain is courtesy of the Leafs last month when Toronto was up 4-3 on Boston heading into the third period, only to lose 7-4 and depart the post-season in the first round. You’ve got to go all the way back to Jets 1.0 in 1992 when they were defeated 5-0 in a seventh game of a Smythe Division semifinal by the Canucks.
A healthy scratch in Game 6, a 38-year-old Jeremy Roenick was a one-man wrecking crew for the San Jose Sharks in a first-round finale versus the Flames in 2008. The Sharks scored four goals in the span of nine minutes in the second period. Roenick’s equalizer and go-ahead goal in that burst contributed to a 5-3 win and the end of Calgary’s season. Edmonton returned to the playoffs in 2017 after an 11-year absence. The Oilers were ousted 2-1 in the seventh game of a second-round series against Anaheim. Vancouver was beaten 4-0 by the Bruins in Game 7 of the 2011 Cup final. Rioting in downtown Vancouver after the game resulted in multiple arrests and property damage.

Greg Thomson connected on a penalty kick late in the second half to give the Kamloops Raiders a 28-27 win over Vancouver Rowing Club in the B.C. Rugby Union men’s Division 2 final in Abbotsford on Saturday.
RAIDERS WIN B.C. TITLE MARTY HASTINGS
STAFF REPORTER
sports@kamloopsthisweek.com
Greg Thomson knew what was on the line. The fate of the Kamloops Raiders’ season rested on his right boot with less than two minutes to play in the B.C. Rugby Union men’s Division 2 final on Saturday in Abbotsford. Vancouver Rowing Club led 27-25 and Thomson, a prop, stepped up to take a penalty that would give the Raiders a one-point lead with very little time remaining for Rowers to respond. A bus full of fans and friends had made the trek from Kamloops and were willing their club to victory, a win that would avenge an embarrassing defeat in the 2017 final, a 38-0 thrashing at the hands of Vancouver-based Meraloma Rugby Club. The ball was teed up about 30 metres from the goal posts on the left-hand side of the field, the preferred side for most right-footed kickers. Head coach Derek Pue looked on and the Raiders’ faithful held their breath as Thomson began
his kicking motion. Struck well, the ball moved from right to left and sailed between the uprights. There would be no Loser Cruiser trip back up the Coquihalla this year, with Kamloops holding on to win 28-27. “I was quite nervous, but you just focus on what you’ve got to do,” said Thomson, speaking loudly to be heard over jovial teammates on the bus. “You walk up, plant your feet the right way and hope for the best.” Thomson didn’t show nerves in the big moment. Perhaps hooker Nick Smith was shouldering the butterfly burden for his teammate. “I was almost throwing up, so that was good,” Smith said. Smith had an inauspicious start to the game, throwing a pass that was intercepted by a speedy Vancouver winger who dashed about 70 metres untouched to open the scoring. “It was a little up and down,” said Smith, who would later atone for his mistake. “But we’re doing pretty good down here now.” Standoff Cole Levitt opened Kamloops’ account a few minutes
after Vancouver’s first tally, skipping over a ruck inside the Rowers’ 22-metre line and rumbling in for a try. Thomson’s conversion attempt was unsuccessful. The teams traded penalties, with Thomson slotting one for the Raiders before flanker Dillon Alexandre scored a try to put Kamloops up 13-10. That scoring play and Alexandre’s second try of the day resulted from bullish play by the Raiders’ forward pack, which helped the club to a 20-10 halftime lead. Vancouver struck early in the second half, scoring two tries — one the fruits of formidable forward play, the other resulting from a deft chip kick well retrieved — to move in front 22-20. Smith earned redemption for his earlier gaffe by scoring a try, capitalizing on more outstanding play from the grunts up front. Thomson could not connect on the conversion. The Raiders led 25-22, but the advantage evaporated when Rowers scored a try with about seven minutes left in the second half.
Had Vancouver’s kicker slotted the conversion, Kamloops would have had to score a try to tie the game, but the miss meant a penalty kick would put the Raiders ahead. The KRC group dug deep following the restart, scratching and clawing its way up the field as valuable seconds ticked away. Levitt attempted a drop goal that sailed wide of the uprights, but the referee was playing advantage and awarded a penalty to the Raiders, who trusted Thomson to get the job done. “I’m loving life,” Levitt said. “The boys are loving it. [It was] down to the final whistle. It was back and forth. Thomson hit a penalty with about two minutes to go and the guys held on. We eked it out.” Judging by the hooting and hollering, Sunday morning would have been a rough one for many of the Raiders, but they have the whole summer to recover before the quest begins for a repeat title. “They had tears in their eyes,” Thomson said. “We were jumping for joy. It was an emotional roller-coaster.”

Rattlers, Shamrocks comprise two-team league MARTY HASTINGS
STAFF REPORTER
sports@kamloopsthisweek.com
ALLEN DOUGLAS/KTW Wyatt Williams of the Kamloops Rattlers looks to escape Joel Castle of the Armstrong Shamrocks in Thompson Okanagan Senior Lacrosse League play at Memorial Arena on Sunday. Armstrong won 12-5. The teams will meet again, and again, and again ...
Reduced to two teams, the Thompson Okanagan Senior Lacrosse League is an easy target for punch lines, but there is nothing funny about it having one knee on the canvas. The Kelowna Raiders were unable to floor a team this year, citing a lack of numbers. The Vernon Tigers became extinct prior to the 2013 campaign. Kamloops and defending champion Armstrong remain, with a six-game series between the two teams deciding the league champion. “It’s nice to keep the league alive,” Rattlers’ captain Mark Jurista said. “We just want to keep it going.” Jurista has been sounding the alarm for years, suggesting the demise of the league may be imminent if Kamloops folds. That has nearly happened on multiple occasions, including prior to this 2018 season, but the Rattlers have been bolstered in recent months by unexpected out-of-town additions. There were 18 players on the Rattlers’ roster sheet on Sunday,
when the Shamrocks earned a 12-5 victory in the season-opening tilt at Memorial Arena. Mike Henry (2G, 2A), JJ Woldum (2G, 1A), Victor Rowe (1G), Andrew Kennedy (1A), Chris Kerssens (1A), Jacob Brown (1A) and Ryan Emery (1A) had points for Kamloops in support of goaltender Scott Helton. Jurista said there may even be one or two more junior graduates on the way, former Kamloops Venom runners who would help round out the roster. The option to carry anywhere close to 20 players would be a treat, considering Kamloops had to forfeit its place in the championship series against Armstrong last year due to a lack of players. The Rattlers also forfeited one league game last season. The Raiders stepped in to play the Shamrocks in the 2017 final and were swept from the series in three games. Now Kelowna doesn’t have a team. “In Kelowna, I think it’s organizational,” Jurista said. “We’re hoping they can get their act together. “We almost had Vernon back this year. They just couldn’t
get the numbers. We’re hoping they’ll be back next year.” Numbers are good in Armstrong, which had 19 players on the roster on Sunday, not including Blake Frederickson, whose antics in the championship series last year led to a three-game suspension that carried into 2018. Some of those ‘Rocks are nomad Tigers, lacrosse lovers from Vernon without a home of their own. The Rattlers are shaking things up at practice this year, hosting open-to-the-public scrimmages on Tuesday nights instead of traditional training sessions. “We’ve changed it to a masters drop-in,” Jurista said, noting scrimmages begin at 8:30 p.m. at Memorial. “Retired senior Rattlers can come out to play. No hitting. Minimal contact.” Armstrong will play host to the next league game on Friday. The Rattlers and Shamrocks will play for a third time on May 25 in Kamloops. Game time is 8 p.m. Fans who miss that one will have three more chances to see the same two teams play again this season.

OSUNA CHARGED WITH ASSAULT CANADIAN PRESS
Toronto Blue Jays’ closer Roberto Osuna has been placed on administrative leave by Major League Baseball after being charged with assault. The league says it is investigating the circumstances of the charges in accordance with the joint domestic violence policy between the league and the MLB Players Association. Toronto Police said Osuna will appear in court on June 18, but wouldn’t provide more details. “We are aware of the incident
involving Roberto and fully support the decision by the commissioner’s office to place him on administrative leave,’’ the Jays said in a statement. “We are taking the matter extremely seriously, as the type of conduct associated with this incident is not reflective of our values as an organization.” The 23-year-old Osuna is in his fourth MLB season, all with the Blue Jays. The native of Juan Jose Rios, Mexico, has nine saves in 15 appearances this season with a 2.93 earnedrun average and 13 strikeouts.

FASTBALL FODDER Two Kamloops Major Men’s Fastball League games were played at Charles Anderson Stadium last Thursday. The Kamloops Cardinals thumped Lillooet 13-1 and the Chase Seqwyits bested Lillooet 11-2. Rich Haldane was the Cardinals’ winning pitcher. Stu Dick picked up the win on the mound for the Sqewyits. Chase batter Ryan Kenoras was 2-for-2 at the plate, with two RBI and a pair of runs. WHL FINAL The Swift Current Broncos avoided falling into a big hole with a
remarkable comeback victory in Game 2 of the WHL championship series on Saturday. Swift Current, which fell 2-1 to Everett on home ice on Friday, was down 3-0 to the Silvertips after the first period in Game 2 on Saturday. The hometown Broncos stormed back, with Tyler Steenbergen tying the game at 18:23 of the third period and Giorgio Estephan scoring the overtime winner at 9:27 of the extra frame. Game 3 was played in Everett on Tuesday after KTW’s press deadline. Max Patterson of Kamloops, an 18-yearold Broncos’ forward, had been held off the scoresheet prior to Game 3. Kevin Davis, a 21-year-old defenceman from Kamloops, had one assist in Game 1. Garrett Pilon and Ondrej Vala were traded to Everett from Kamloops in January. Pilon, a forward who turned 20 last month, had two assists and Vala, a defenceman who turned 20 in April, had one helper in Game 1. Vala earned thirdstar honours in Game 2, registering two assists. Pilon had one assist.

It’s sometimes never fair but the times that is never fair you learn the most, live your life with no regrets only memories of the lessons you learned. Be yourself everyone else is taken. Justice was a loving man who loved his family and friends. It’s been a year since Justice passed and he made a real impact on our lives.

Edna Wandler
Kathleen (Kay) Marie Smith
Edna Wandler of Medicine Hat passed away on Friday, April 27, 2018 at the age of 68 years, beloved wife of the late Arthur Wandler.
With her 105th birthday on the near horizon and after living a full and happy life, Kay slipped away on Saturday, April 28, 2018.
She leaves to cherish her memory her sons Alan (Teresa) Wandler and Sean Wandler, her grandchildren Taylor and Alexa, her brothers Garry (Chris) Haaf, Ken (Elaine) Haaf and Nick Haaf and her sister-in-law Elaine Haaf. She was predeceased by her parents Nick and Pauline Haaf, her husband Arthur on October 27, 2009, her brother Jerry Haaf and her sister Sue Poffenroth. In keeping with Edna’s wishes, no funeral service will be held. Interment will take place in Fox Valley, Saskatchewan at a later date. Edna wanted to make sure that her boys had opportunities that she and Art didn’t have growing up. Edna instilled in her boys and grandchildren a strong work ethic, a sense of doing right by others and an attitude to make sure that if you are going to do a job that you do it right. Edna loved baseball and passed that love on to her boys who played in the Kamloops Minor Baseball organization for many years. One of her favourite pastimes was to travel back to Kamloops each summer to watch some games. In fact, Sean is still involved in coaching and organizing Kamloops Baseball some thirty years later. Edna followed her grandchildren’s postsecondary careers very closely and was so proud of them. It was her value in education, reading and the attitudes she passed on that helped make her grandchildren become the fine people they are today and Alan and Teresa cannot thank her enough for that. We will miss you. To e-mail an expression of sympathy, please direct it to: pattfh@telusplanet.net subject heading: Edna Wandler, or you may visit www.pattisonfuneralhome.com and leave a message of condolence. Arrangements are by the PATTISON FUNERAL HOME AND CREMATORIUM, 540 South Railway St. SE, Medicine Hat T1A 2V6. Please call 1-866-526-2214 for further information.
July 10, 1913 - April 28, 2018
She loved to tell the story of her beginnings, born prematurely in 1913, that resulted in her spending her first few weeks in a box on the open oven door of her parents’ wood stove! That experience, no doubt, created a strength and tenacity that never left her – she embraced life and enjoyed it. Kay was predeceased by her parents Frank and Anne and step-mother Janie Busse, her husband’s parents Senator Syd and Mrs. Marion Smith, her husband Gordon, brother Nelson and sister-in-law Audrey, niece Lynne Henderson (Bob), brothers and sisters-in-law Max and Marie Smith and Bill and Pat Portman, many life long friends and many beloved dogs.
Celebration Of Life Lorne C. Earle
February 11, 1928 November 18, 2017
She is survived by three generations of family: nieces and nephews, their children and grandchildren. Astoundingly, she was incredibly active and healthy until well after her 101st birthday, proud of seldom seeing the doctor and taking no medication except for a daily vitamin pill! She maintained a keen interest in the world and despite slowly losing her sight to macular degeneration, she could discuss the news of the day or the latest golf scores effortlessly. Until her sight was challenged, she was a voracious reader, often consuming multiple books in a week. In younger days, she was an avid curler and golfer, her love of golf lasting a lifetime. She had deep roots in Kamloops, arriving from Gull Lake, SK in 1937, newly married to the love of her life Gordon. After Gordon sold Syd Smith Ltd. in 1970, they spent many years in Scottsdale, AZ, a place they loved, returning to Kamloops permanently in the ‘90s. Kay was a great conversationalist, loved a good joke and was always ready with a story. She was at all times impeccably groomed and dressed and retained her glamorous beauty until her final days. Her family would like to thank the many people who loved, supported and assisted Kay over the past years: to the incredible staff at Berwick on the Park as well as the wonderful residents, many of whom became good friends, Janet Herman, the Schreiner family, the Muzzillo family and Dr. Alice Huang. No service by request. Arrangements entrusted to First Memorial, Kamloops (250) 554-2429 Condolences may be expressed at www.firstmemorialkamloops.com
Friends and former colleagues are invited to join a Celebration of Life for Lorne at 1:00 pm on Saturday, May 12, 2018 at the Kamloops Curling Club, 700 Victoria St., Kamloops, BC.

Obituaries & In Memoriam Joanne (Smith) Mobley
Ingrid Marguerite Middlemass January 18, 1929 – April 27, 2018
Celebration Of Life June Donna Weaver
Ingrid Middlemass was born in Gothenburg, Sweden. She immigrated to Canada with her husband Ian. Being fluent in Swedish, German and English, she worked as a translator. She loved traveling, singing, golf and piano and enjoyed vacationing in Hawaii and the Shuswap. She was fond of entertaining, (Santa Lucia parties amongst others), but rarely cooked. Ingrid met Ian, her husband of many years, while skiing in Europe where they apparently crashed into one another on the slopes. Ian predeceased her in 2011. She was a lovely, quiet and peaceful lady and will live long in our memories.
Please join us in Celebrating the Life and Memory of June on Saturday, May 12, 2018 at 11:00 am in the Schoening Funeral Chapel, 513 Seymour Street, Kamloops.
She will be especially missed by her dear friends Helga, Mike and Gerrianne. Special thanks to all the staff on 2B at Kamloops Seniors Village and to Dr. Bantock.
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Joanne Mobley on Saturday, May 5, 2018 with her family by her side. Joan was born September 3, 1935 in the small town of Herbert, Saskatchewan. She was the oldest of her four siblings Bob (Muriel) Smith, Janet (Victor) Piva, Cathy (Bill) Moore and Ken (Ethel) Smith. Her family explored much of the Okanagan in their travels and settled in the North Okanagan town of Enderby. Soon after moving to Kamloops, Joanne met the love of her life Ronald Mobley. They married in 1954 and with such love in their hearts their son Wade (Charmaine) Mobley soon followed. They continued to open their hearts and home to children that needed a family. Joan spent much of her married life fostering children. More children came later in the marriage; Rhonda (Neil) Mobley and Leanne (Patrick) Maloney were quite a surprise for the couple. Joan and her family moved to Pinantan Lake, BC in 1978. They enjoyed the challenges of rural life such as party lines, dirt roads and of course fishing. She was well known for creating the Pinantan toque. The coveted first prize at many fishing derby’s. Joan found her calling as a Postmaster for the community of Pinantan. She loved the visits from the locals. Some of Joan’s favorite memories were time spent with her family. She loved her sleepovers with her grandchildren Michael and Candice Mobley, blowing bubbles with her grandson Aaden Mobley-Beauchamp and visits with her great-granddaughters Brooke and Tayla Mobley made her incredibly happy. The family would like to thank the staff at Gemstone for their excellent care of Mom. If you would like to share a cup and a few stories with her family, a tea will be held on Saturday, May 12, 2018 at 966 Ollek Street at 2:00 pm. There are no services planned at Joan’s request. In lieu of flowers, a donation to the Alzheimer’s Society of BC in her memory would be appreciated.
A private service was held.
You are invited to a reception with June’s family and friends following the service.

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!

WEEKLY HOROSCOPES
ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20
You will have plenty of time to devote to your favorite projects, Aries. But right now you need to spend some time with close friends and family.
TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 Relationships are at the forefront of your mind, Taurus. You may have specific criteria you use to assess potential friends or romantic interests, but it could pay to widen your scope.
GEMINI - May 22/Jun 2 Gemini, your charm might be on overdrive, but you are looking for more than just trivial companionship. Explore activities that will match you with those with the same interests.
CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22
Coworkers are expecting much from you, Cancer. Although you want to promise them everything, you have doubts you can deliver. See what you can handle and farm out the rest.
LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23 You have plenty of options in your love life, Leo. Take a step back and carefully assess where you want existing relationships to go. Such a breather will only benefit you.
VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 It takes more than just a positive attitude to be successful this week — although positivity is a good start. Set goals and aim for doing your fair share of hard work.
MAY 9 - MAY 15, 2018 LIBRA
- Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, your intuition lets you know when to keep quiet and when to make a stir. Let events unfold around you this week, keeping your thoughts close to the vest.
SCORPIO

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan20 Capricorn, you may be on the cusp of revealing your plans to others. But a change of heart might be coming, so wait a little bit longer until you’re certain.
AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 You might not be in the mood for small talk this week, Aquarius. But avoid being rude as you try to speak about serious matters. Allow others to express themselves.
PISCES
- Feb 19/Mar 20 There seems to be no limit to your career possibilities, Pisces. Rather than staying put in your current position, branch out.
