Cannabis store job fair had them rolling in JESSICA WALLACE STAFF REPORTER jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com
They lined up inside the Four Points Sheraton Hotel in Aberdeen, through the lobby and down into the Twisted Olive restaurant. Resumes in hand, dozens arrived early seeking employment at B.C.’s first legal recreational pot store. People who sold weed were once called “drug dealers.” Now, for the first time, the government is legitimizing them as “cannabis consultants” — well-paying union jobs that will pave the way for a new industry in Canada. “I want to be a pioneer,” Kamloops resident Paula Bridgeman, 54, told KTW. The BC Liquor Distribution Branch was in town Thursday hosting a day-long job fair, the first stage in hiring about 20 people for a store in Columbia Place in Sahali. Kamloops was the first location selected for a government cannabis store and the shop will open Oct. 17, when recreational cannabis becomes legal in Canada. The hotel lobby was bustling with applicants and BCLDB staffers met with them one-on-one, carefully identifying those who would get an interview in coming days. “We’re excited to see the turnout,” BCLDB director of retail operations Kevin Satterfield said. Bridgeman applied for one of several cannabis consultant roles, which will be responsible for educating the public about cannabis products, including more than 150 strains offered. Those positions will facilitate the sales of cannabis, which — unlike liquor stores — will be locked away behind cabinets. “I’m passionate about the marijuana industry, have been for many, many years,” Bridgeman said. “I’m so excited it’s becoming legal.” The province has said it is seeking a range of experience for retail consultant and management roles.

INTRODUCING THE
Job applicants of all ages and from all walks of life stood in line for up to two hours at the B.C. government’s cannabis job fair, which was held on Thursday at the Four Points Sheraton in Aberdeen. Applicants are aiming to be hired in the province’s first government cannabis store, which will open this fall next to Save-On-Foods in Sahali. DAVE EAGLES/KTW
Motel room yields $40K in stolen property
Kamloops Mounties have arrested one man and seized $40,000 worth of stolen property from a local motel. Police had been investigating a case of stolen property being stored at the motel when they recovered a stolen ATV and arrested two people in a room on Tuesday. Sgt. Edward Preto said a search warrant was obtained and a further search of the room turned up two firearms — a rifle and a sawed-
off shotgun that was loaded. Drugs were also seized, along with $40,000 worth of stolen property that included eight kayaks, a $7,000 mountain bike and construction tools. A 41-year-old Kamloops man is in custody. Police have not specified the drugs that were seized nor the name of the motel that was raided, though witnesses told KTW it was the Tournament Inn in Valleyview.

Welcome to the city’s pedestrian plaza in the downtown core. A portion of Fourth Avenue‚ from the alley between Lansdowne and Victoria streets to the alley between Victoria and Seymour streets — has been closed to traffic and turned into a foot-friendly area. Victoria Street remains open to vehicles. The plaza features seating, trees and plants and will be home to street games and entertainment. The project is a test run on larger ideas to create similar pedestrian-focused areas downtown. The plaza will remain open until Aug. 12.

TNRD had $582K emergency OT bill JESSICA WALLACE STAFF REPORTER jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com
COSTING OUT EMERGENCIES
The Thompson-Nicola Regional District’s chief administrative officer was paid an additional $117,000 during the floods and fires of 2017, part of more than a half-million dollars in overtime expenses accumulated by TNRD staff last year. Financial statements show Sukh Gill received the additional pay on top of his regular salary ($206,000), combining for nearly $325,000 in compensation last year. “There was over 100 days between fire and floods and each of those days were probably 14-, 15-hour days, and it was seven days a week,” Gill told KTW. Historic flooding and fires plagued the regional district last year, from unprecedented flooding in Cache Creek to the Elephant Hill wildfire. The provincial government has deemed the year’s events among the worst in the province’s history, with a 10-week provincial state of emergency resulting in more than 65,000 residents displaced, with thousands being housed in Kamloops. Asked how many hours of overtime were worked, Gill said between 800 and 1,000.
Total overtime remuneration by TNRD staff for emergency response last year amounted to just shy of $582,000, a tab picked up by the province. Other TNRD staff who worked significant overtime during the emergencies included emergency service supervisor Jason Tomlin, who was paid an additional $55,000 on top of a $95,000 salary, human resources director Debbie Sell ($55,500 extra on $134,000 salary), planning services manager Alexander Krause ($42,000 extra on $86,000 salary) and director of community services Ron Storie ($39,500 extra on $116,000 salary). “We had to do what we had to do,” Gill said. “We also had 12-, 15-thousand people show up that we weren’t expecting.” The City of Kamloops’ annual financial statement shows the city paid its staff five per cent more — about $2.7 million —
TNRD overtime: $582,000 City of Kamloops overtime: unknown (included in taxable benefits and payouts line item in financial statements) Provincial costs for flood and fire response: $641 million
last year compared to 2016. That was partly due to overtime worked during flood and wildfire emergencies, though exact numbers remain unclear. City of Kamloops financial statements combine taxable benefits and payouts, including emergency operations overtime hours. That totalled $3.8 million for 2017, but finance director Kathy Humphrey could not further break down the number. “It just showed up as overtime,” she said. “It doesn’t say this was overtime because we were behind or anything. It’s just, you know, it’s just overtime because people were just working overtime. We just know that the reason they were working overtime was because of the floods and fire and stuff.” Humphrey said the bulk of emergency overtime by city staff was worked during the floods, noting the TNRD took on the largest burden during the wildfires. Like the TNRD, the city’s overtime for emergency response is reimbursed by the province. The provincial report on emergency preparedness, Addressing the New Normal: 21st Century Disaster Management in British Columbia, estimated the total cost of flood response in 2017 was more than $73 million, while the cost of fighting wildfires was $568 million.

WILDFIRE SAFETY Just one spark or any heat source can start a wildfire! •
Do not discard smoking materials outdoors or from cars—always use ashtrays or other approved container.
•
Motorized vehicles, particularly ATVs and dirt bikes, can produce a significant amount of heat from their exhaust systems. This heat can be enough to spark a wildfire. Avoid operating any motorized vehicle in tall grass and vegetation when the weather is hot and dry.
•
Do your work before 10:00 am, but never when it’s windy or excessively dry.
•
When doing any yard or outdoor work with mechanical equipment, keep a shovel and a fire extinguisher handy.
•
Sparks from lawnmowers and power equipment DO start wildfires. Be careful on hot, dry days, and be sure to have your equipment checked regularly.
•
Keep your lawnmower's exhaust system, spark arresters, and engine in proper working order and free of carbon buildup. Use the recommended grade of fuel, and don’t fill to the point of overflowing.
The City of Kamloops and the Kamloops Central Business Improvement Association (KCBIA) have partnered on a pilot project to trial the 4th Ave Pedestrian Plaza design concept. The project brings 4th Avenue to life by creating a pedestrianized environment with seating areas, planters, street trees, and street games. The 4th Ave Pedestrian Plaza is an animated, lively public space with musicians and performers at key times throughout the trial period. The performance line-up is available online at Kamloops.ca/downtownplan. This project was conceived after the City received input during launch events and workshops for the Downtown Plan. Residents and stakeholders provided initial feedback on the design concepts at a community open house during Design Downtown week in mid-June and have continued to share comments and ideas on the City’s engagement website, LetsTalk.Kamloops.ca/downtownplan.

Working with metal led to Shuswap Road fire
#105-5170 DALLAS DR., KAMLOOPS | 250-573-1193
MICHAEL POTESTIO STAFF REPORTER michael@kamloopsthisweek.com
Sparks from metal work behind a home in the 800-block of Shuswap Road has been confirmed as the cause of the grass fire that burned nearly 550 hectares of land east of Sun Rivers on July 12. Workers from a construction company hired to complete home renovations were cutting angle iron when sparks ignited the grass about 25 feet away, Kamloops Fire Rescue Chief Fire Prevention Officer Dean Olstad told KTW. “They were trying to put it out themselves, but then it just became apparent pretty quickly that it was going to be too much for them. Then they called 911 and that’s when we arrived on scene,” said Olstad, noting firefighters did their best to extinguish the blaze, but it escalated from there. Olstad said KFR is not disclosing the name of the company responsible for the fire. No fines are being pursued. “We’ve contacted them, gone over procedures, precautions for that type of work in the future just so they can be better [prepared] to prevent it from happening again,” Olstad said. As per the B.C. fire code, there are a number of precautionary steps that need to be taken when conducting any type of cutting, grinding and welding work, Olstad said. Ideally, a 15-foot area from where this type of hot works is being conducted should be cleared of any fire hazards. If that can’t be done, the area should be watered down or a fire-resistant blanket or shielding should be used to cover combustibles. Someone must also watch over the job and ensure those fireprevention measures are working, he said.

PAYING TOO MUCH CHILD SUPPORT? Child Support: money paid by one parent to the other to help defray the expenses with raising children. The amount of child support payable is generally fixed according to the Government’s Child Support Guideline tables which link the number of children to the payer’s income. These tables provide specific support payment calculations for gross annual incomes up to $150,000 and calculate amounts for incomes over $150,000.

“Within four hours, someone should go back to the area and then reassess the area just to ensure there are no hot spots,” Olstad said. The company didn’t follow all of those steps. “They missed a few, for sure,” Olstad said. “This isn’t their line of work. They typically sub this type of work out, but it wasn’t a big job, it wasn’t a large component of it, so they thought they could do it themselves.” Olstad said the company didn’t have anyone watching for a fire start. “I’m not sure what length of time had gone by, but it was substantial enough that when they did notice it, they tried to [extinguish] it themselves by stepping on it and using shovels and stuff, but it was at such a state that they couldn’t extinguish the fire,” Olstad said. He noted workers had some protective shields up, but they were not sufficient to stop the sparks from getting into the nearby grasses. Olstad said the fire department enforces the fire code and, while each case is different, generally prefers to achieve compliance through education, though fines are a possibility.
City of Kamloops bylaws are a quicker and easier option for levying fines, he added. Fines in the fire-prevention bylaw range from $250 to $1,000. The Shuswap Road fire, aided by the wind and dry conditions, spread quickly up the hillside. Residents of Sun Rivers spent many anxious moments watching the flames and smoke get closer before firefighting efforts from the sky and on the ground kept the blaze at bay. The BC Wildfire Service had the fire under control in about a day and listed it as inactive after about a week of extinguishing hotspots. No structures were damaged nor any injuries reported. Fire information officer Nicole Bonnett said the wildfire service has its own fire investigation into the cause of the Shuswap Road blaze, a probe that is ongoing. “The data collection has been completed, but the report still has to be written and the investigation team has been on a few other fires in the interim, so it’ll take some time for them to get that report written up,” she said. Whether those responsible for causing the fire face a fine from the wildfire service depends on the outcome of that investigation.
CAMPFIRE BAN NOW IN EFFECT Campfires are now prohibited throughout the Kamloops Fire Centre. The ban was implemented on Thursday, with the July 26 ban date is almost three weeks later than last year, when the campfire ban took effect on July 7. In 2016, there was no campfire ban implemented. The campfire prohibition will remain in effect until Oct. 15 or until otherwise noted. Prohibited activities will also include the use of fireworks (including firecrackers), sky lanterns, burn barrels or burn cages of any size or description, binary exploding targets, tiki torches and similar kinds of torches, chimineas, outdoor stoves and other portable campfire apparatuses that are not
CSA-approved or ULC-approved. The ban doesn’t apply to gas, propane or briquettes cooking devices. Anyone found in contravention of an open fire prohibition may be issued a ticket for $1,150, required to pay an administrative penalty of $10,000 or, if convicted in court, fined up to $100,000 and/or sentenced to one year in jail. If the contravention causes or contributes to a wildfire, the person responsible may be ordered to pay all firefighting and associated costs. To report a wildfire or open burning violation, call 1-800-663-5555 toll-free or *5555 on a cellphone.
FIND OUT WHAT’S FAIR & RIGHT FOR YOU Payors with high incomes may feel that these formulas result in extremely large child support payments which exceed what is reasonably necessary to meet a child’s expenses. Child Support Guidelines allow Courts limited discretion where there is clear and compelling evidence to make a child support award different than that generated by the formulas.

O’Reilly will run for a seat on Kamloops city council CITY HALL • SD73 • TNRD
JESSICA WALLACE STAFF REPORTER jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com
Outside of his downtown coffee shop, Mike O’Reilly announced on Wednesday his intention to run for a seat on city council in the Oct. 20 civic election. “I believe that business is not being given a fair chance in Kamloops,” O’Reilly told KTW when asked why he is running. The 35-year-old has spent most of his life in Kamloops. He owns Caffé Motivo on Victoria Street and has had his hand in numerous local organizations, including Venture Kamloops, Kamloops Exploration Group and the MS Society. Most recently, O’Reilly was president of the Kamloops Central Business Improvement Association. He sees new development and business as a way to fund programs to tackle issues like affordable housing. “There is a definite gap and we are falling behind other like-sized cities,” O’Reilly said. Issues prioritized in his platform, which will be released in coming weeks, include jobs, economic development, affordable housing and Mike O’Reilly, owner of downtown’s Caffé Motivo is seeking a seat on Kamloops council. “I believe that business is not being given a fair chance in Kamloops,” he said. DAVE EAGLES/KTW
CIVIC ELECTION Oct. 20, 2018 strategic densification. If elected, O’Reilly said he will also strive to bridge the left and right and North and South shores. “The performing-arts centre was a very eye-opening experience to see how there was communities and neighbourhoods that voted against something that maybe was good for the city, but not for them,” he said of the failed 2015 referendum on the $91-million proposal. “I think there’s a lot of neighbourhoods butting heads. It’s for everyone to understand that what’s good for a specific neighbourhood is good for the city as a whole and making sure that a neighbourhood isn’t forgotten.” O’Reilly unsuccessfully ran for city council in 2014. “I just kinda missed the mark,” he said. “Not on what I wanted to do, but forgetting my message of why I wanted economic development, why I wanted jobs. “There’s so much more tied to it than just those two things.”

The race begins as would-be candidates eye Oct. 20 election date JESSICA WALLACE
STAFF REPORTER
jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com
With about three months until Kamloops voters head to the polls, KTW has compiled a preliminary list of candidates intending to run in the Oct. 20 civic election. The list so far includes familiar faces, including incumbents and some of those who ran in the September 2017 byelection that elected a mayor and two councillors. Mayor Ken Christian has confirmed he will seek re-election, following his landslide victory in the byelection, when he received 64 per cent of the vote to succeed Peter Milobar after the latter was elected MLA for Kamloops-North-Thompson. Those who have thus far announced they will challenge Christian for the mayor’s chair include Stuart Holland, who ran for mayor in the byelection, and William Turnbull.
CITY HALL • SD73 • TNRD
CIVIC ELECTION Oct. 20, 2018
Rookie councillor Ray Dhaliwal, who was one of two people (alongside Kathy Sinclair) elected to council in the byelection, said he is about 70 per cent sure he will run for mayor, depending on how busy he is with his businesses. Veteran councillors Pat Wallace and Tina Lange are not seeking re-election, while colleagues Arjun Singh, Denis Walsh, Donovan Cavers, Dieter Dudy and Sinclair have confirmed they will once again vie for a seat around the horseshoe at city hall. Others who ran in last year’s byelection have confirmed to KTW they will run: Leslie Lax, Nicholas Adams, Bill Sarai, Dennis Giesbrecht, Caroline

DECRIMINALIZING MORE IS NEXT STEP
A
fter legalizing pot, decriminalizing other drugs is the next logical next step. Toronto’s chief medical officer and the B.C. Nurses’ Union are calling for just that to curb rising opioid-related deaths and overdoses. The Toronto public health board, the largest of its kind in Canada, will next send a letter to the federal government, urging it to decriminalize the use of all recreational drugs. Canada is the first major industrialized country to fully legalize cannabis, with recreational sales starting Oct. 17. Decriminalization of all drugs should follow, simply to be practical. It is a better option than having the criminal justice system address drug use and dependency, by far a more expensive and less effective method. Decriminalization acknowledges that health aspect involved, that those in the grip of dependency may be ill and need help. It also helps save lives. Vancouver’s supervised injection site, Insite, has shown such facilities reduce and prevent overdose deaths and spread of disease. It performed 2,151 overdose interventions in 2017. The rest of the country would benefit from more such initiatives. As Toronto medical officer of health Eileen de Villa recommended, the federal government should scale up harm-prevention strategies and look at regulating all drugs. Based on evidence, she said, the criminalization of people who take drugs contributes to the opioid-overdose emergency as it forces people into unsafe drug practices and presents a barrier to those who might want to seek help. Yes, remove barriers, including those to housing. Drug problems should be treated as public-health issues, not criminal ones.

It’s early — too early
I
t was while watching my beloved San Francisco Giants defeat the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday night that I came face-to-face with my first back-to-school ad. Between innings, clothing store Ross was telling me all about its back-to-school sale prices — on July 24, a mere 43 days before kids in Seattle (and Kamloops) begin the school year. That Ross ad may have been the earliest back-to-school pitch I have ever seen and led me to pondering the run-up to this year’s civic election. I firmly believe there should be a law banning back-to-school ads (or even talk of school) until Aug. 16, since that is one day after the annual observation of Relaxation Day (yes, it really exists, every year on Aug. 15). If I were king, I’d also declare a moratorium on any and all civic election candidacy announcements and other discussion until that same Aug. 16 date. It would be preferable if we could simply enjoy the dog days of this wonderful, sizzling summer without thoughts of ballot boxes blocking out the sun. Alas, we are living in a society that demands information NOW, an era that seems to have seen patience go extinct. So it is that we begin civic election coverage in today’s paper, a mere 86 days before voters elected a mayor, council and school board. We in the media are at the mercy of candidate announcements, such as Wednesday’s press conference downtown at which
CHRISTOPHER FOULDS Newsroom
MUSINGS Mike O’Reilly declared his intention to run for seat on council. Others have also indicated their intent to run for various seats in the Oct. 20 election, though nothing is official until the end of the day on Sept. 14, when the nomination deadline ends and candidates are officially declared. The nomination period doesn’t even begin until Sept. 4, the day the kids go back to school in all that cool Ross clothing. And, as we experienced during last year’s civic byelection campaign, candidate announcements and related news stories do not guarantee candidates actually running (see Ross Friedman, Cindy and Mardon, Kyle as exhibits A and B). But, as noted philosopher Todd Bertuzzi once said, “it is what it is” — and here we are. So, from today through to the Oct. 20 election of a mayor, eight city councillors and five Kamloops school district trustees, we will be covering those
seeking the seats. There is a story in today’s paper that details the names of people who have declared their intention to run for office, either via press conferences, press releases or social-media posts. Subsequent editions of KTW will carry similar profiles of those and other aspiring politicians. If you are running, let us know by calling us at 250-374-7467 or by emailing us at editor@ kamloopsthisweek.com. Believe it or not, some socialmedia posts do get missed by media outlets. As for when to announce one’s candidacy, there are differing schools of thought. Declaring early is a way of getting one’s name out there before others, with the hope that name sticks in the minds of voters as the candidate continues to push his or her ideas. With respect to mainstream media, be it newspaper, radio or television (and their very wellread websites), perhaps waiting until later to declare would create a larger impact, with lazy summer days in the rearview mirror, the kids in school and voters more focused on the fall election. The 2018 civic election ballot could very well see more candidates than ever before, which, alongside the provincial referendum on proportional representation and the legalization of recreational marijuana three days before the vote, will make for an intensely busy autumn in the news business. editor@kamloopsthisweek.com Twitter: @ChrisJFoulds

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
LETTER LEADS TO VOTERS’ CHOICE IN OCTOBER Editor: Re: (‘Kamloops council quintet urges voters to choose proportional representation,’ July 11): The five councillors who signed this letter — Arjun Singh, Donovan Cavers, Dieter Dudy, Denis Walsh and Tina Lange — need to have a serious rethink. They each signed the letter as “Kamloops city councillor.” While they are entitled to have and express their opinions like all other citizens, it is inescapably clear they intended to use the weight of their positions as city councillors to support the opinions they want to put forward. Was this city council business?
It was never brought before a meeting of council and yet they sign as members of that council. Could it have been city council business? No, this is clearly outside the powers and jurisdiction of council, as Mayor Ken Christian noted. They have no business putting the weight of their council positions behind their personal opinions. This could be seen as meddling in provincial matters. So, what of the specific points they make? They attempt to compare council operations with proportional representation models. There is no analysis in their
letter and it fails to recognize there are enormous differences between council and proportional representation. One of the most fundamental differences is that, in Kamloops, we have no party system in council at this time. Proportional representation depends entirely on having a party system (even though in a different way than under the first past the post electoral system). There is no fair parallel between Kamloops council operations and how a provincial proportional representation system would work. As Christian also noted, pro-
portional representation is a specific demand of the Greens. Odd that one of the five signatories was a Green candidate in the 2017 provincial election. On balance, the letter turns out to be helpful, not in analyzing and supporting proportional representation, but in assisting in deciding who should receive support in the gall municipal election. We shall be very reluctant to vote for anyone who does not understand the scope of their job and we thank goodness there are still members of council who do. Helen and Francis Barnett Kamloops
WE ARE ALL EQUAL, BUT SOME ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS Editor: In his letter of July 25 (‘No right for rich to buy health care’), Joe Killoran said the Canada Health Act states we are all to be treated equally. Well, some of us are more equal than others. The politicians that wrote
that law conveniently exempted themselves from it. They can jump the queue and go to a private clinic at taxpayer expense, along with members of the RCMP, claimants on workers’ compensation and some government employees. According to the Fraser
Institute, wait times have increased 128 per cent since 1993 and are now the worst they have ever been. People over 65 drive up health care costs. Today, less than 15 per cent of the population is 65. The boomers are now starting to turn that age. They are 30 per cent of
the population. In a few years, the situation will get much worse. The health clinic on the North Shore started by former health minister Terry Lake is one of the innovative ideas we need to avoid catastrophe. Pat Kavanagh Kamloops
IN BROCK, TAKING THEM HOME ON COUNTRY ROADS Editor: Can someone please tell me why we are spending $3.5 million on 1.7 kilometres of pathway connecting Peterson Creek Park with Sahali when Fleetwood Avenue in Brock is like driving on a country road.
I know I am paying city taxes, but I am driving on a road worse than a country lane. Can someone from city council tell me why there has been no road improvements on Fleetwood? We have the worst roads in Brock, with no sidewalks and poor street lights.
Can someone tell me why we pay almost the same amount of taxes as Juniper residents, yet we have terrible roads, areas of which resemble lakes when it rains? Gavin Russell Kamloops

Stigma around marijuana remains From A1
Twenty-one-year-old McDonald’s manager Cyndra Hyde hopes experience beneath the Golden Arches will secure her an assistant manager position in the cannabis store. “It looks really good on a resume,” she said. “That’s all my mom’s ever told me.” Hyde has no concerns about a lack of cannabis experience. The province has said knowledge would be considered an asset, but those who show an interest in the industry will be trained. Chase resident Amy Clowater, 46, wasn’t sure at first whether to include cannabis experience on her resume. “That was the debate when I was talking to my husband and a bunch of people who I know,” she said. “It’s like, do you say that you’ve used it or do you not? I mean, it’s a cannabis store. You’d think they’d want some sort of knowledge of it, but they also said they’re going to do extensive training. It was a flip of the coin.” Others see the opportunity as a way to
legitimize previous experience with the black market. Sean Bolingbroke-Price has been criminally charged in the past for cultivation, possession with the intent to sell and conspiracy. He said the charges (which he noted resulted in no criminal record) stemmed from selling cannabis seeds, including for the Canada’s so-called Prince of Pot, Marc Emery. Today, Bolingbroke-Price lists “extensive cannabis knowledge” under skills and abilities on his resume. “I like the idea of being able to use my knowledge and experience to get a job that has great benefits,” BolingbrokePrice said. As the industry shifts toward legalization, stigma continues among some — evidenced by applicants who hid from cameras or refused to speak with media. Bridgeman, however, said events like the job fair are working to wash away that stigma. “Talking more openly, which I love,” she said.
Interviews will follow on Friday and Saturday. If the positions are not filled, staff will return in following weeks to continue the hiring process. BUDDING BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY Thompson Rivers University business professor Paul Clark visited the job fair for research purposes. He has been discussing the budding industry with students in the classroom and has an interest in researching procurement — the buying of product to sell to a store. “Once legalized in mid-October, Canada will become the largest legal market in the world,” Clark said. He said the country has an opportunity to become an international leader, similar to the way wine is synonymous with countries like France and Italy. He compared the potential bud boom to the dot-com era. “As a business instructor, I therefore see tremendous opportunity for students,” Clark said. “A growing industry. We don’t see this kind of phenomena happen.”

There are two dogs in the world trained to sniff out C. difficile — and both of them are in B.C. One of them spent Wednesday at Royal Inland Hospital, pointing out to hospital staff where spores of the infectious disease are hiding. Angus, a four-year-old springer spaniel, also put on a demonstration for about two-dozen RIH staffers following a question-and-answer session with his trainer, Jamie Kinna. “They’re trained very similar to an explosives dog or a drug dog. It’s just a different odour,” Kinna said. “We’re saving lives one sniff at a time.” Angus usually works for the Vancouver Coastal Health Authority, helping to keep facilities in the Lower Mainland clean,

Kinna said she is hopeful the program will become provincially funded, with sniffer dogs stationed across B.C. “It’s starting and we’re hoping to continue to see it grow,” she said. Interior Health Authority officials were happy to host Angus. “It’s really unique and we’re lucky to have it,” Val Wood, IHA’s director of infection prevention control, told KTW. “Currently, there’s no technology available that can help detect this in a facility. We want to make sure we make the environment as clean as possible of C. difficile. But you can’t clean every nook and cranny because you can’t see it. But the dog can sniff it.” Wood called Angus’ finds “eye opening” for RIH staff.
“He’s detected it in areas you don’t even think about,” she said. Being one of only two C. diff-sniffing dogs on the planet, Angus has a healthy online following. One of those followers, RIH critical-care nurse Lisa Hill, was in attendance on Wednesday. “I’ve been following since I saw an article about Angus on the Vancouver Sun online,” said Hill, who described herself as Angus’ “No. 1 fan” on Wednesday. “I’m very excited about it.” Hill also has springer spaniels of her own and said their potential is great. “The thing about springers is they have a very good nose and are intelligent, but they are also very non-threatening,” she said. “C. diff is such a scourge to the healthcare system and it’s very expensive to treat. It destroys a lot of lives. To be able to have these dogs detect it and help, it’s wonderful.”

MP returns from trip to Israel, West Bank DALE BASS STAFF REPORTER dale@kamloopsthisweek.com
One of the first things that struck Cathy McLeod during her visit this month to the Middle East is just how small the countries are. “One of the most astounding things I learned is that Israel is smaller than my riding,” the Kamloops-ThompsonCariboo MP said. Her riding is 38,320 square kilometres; Israel is just 20,770 square kilometres. McLeod was one of six parliamentarians — three Liberals and three Conservatives — to embark on the week-long trip, sponsored by the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA). It describes itself as a non-partisan, non-profit organization that represents the perspectives of Canadian Jews who are affiliated with it. While the focus of the group is on the Jewish community, McLeod said the trip was well-rounded. The group had briefings with Israeli politicians and with representatives of the Palestinian Authority (PA) that governs the West Bank. The group visited Ramallah on the West Bank, home to the PA and an area the Israeli government has announced it will annex. It was McLeod’s first trip to the
region. She said she went to see firsthand “what’s happening over there” and to educate herself to be better informed when Parliament discusses Middle East issues. What she learned is how complex everything is in the area considered the birthplace of most religions and home to turbulent decades of fighting and chaos. Standing on the Golan Heights, McLeod said she could see in the distance a kibbutz with a thriving winery. Turning around, could also see a small Syrian town that showed signs of what she called “internal disruption.” “I didn’t even need binoculars to see Lebanon and Jordan,” McLeod said. While the group saw evidence of the ongoing battles and conflicts, the members also went to Tel Aviv, a city that rivals Silicon Valley as a global technological hub. McLeod said she was struck by how it is the only place in the Middle East to respect LGBQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual and queer) rights. McLeod said the people she met during tours or briefings didn’t show much curiosity about the Canadian parliamentarians. They were, she said, more interested in explaining the complexity of the region.

A look back at 2017 from city hall’s view JESSICA WALLACE
STAFF REPORTER
jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com
The City of Kamloops experienced a boom in construction and tourism in 2017, but last year was also one filled with emergency response efforts due to floods to fires in the region. KTW has compiled some highlights from the year that was, via the city’s annual report for 2017: • Flooding events resulted in more than $1 million in damages to city infrastructure; • Kamloops tourism got a rebrand: “Boldly Unscripted.” The
city welcomed 1.8-million visitors in 2017, up a couple of hundred thousand visitors from a count two years earlier, while the tourism economy was valued at $449 million; • Commercial building projects included Thompson Rivers University’s new trades building, Pharmasave and Ashley Furniture in Valleyview and the Surgical Centre on McGill Road. Multi-family projects were given the go-ahead on Pacific Way, Hugh Allan Drive, Qu’Appelle Boulevard, Battle Street and Dallas Drive; • Malls in Kamloops underwent changes, with the addition of Jump 360 and Planet Fitness in Sahali Mall and Lululemon in Aberdeen Mall.
Sears also departed Aberdeen Mall; • After serving for two terms as a city councillor and three terms as mayor, Peter Milobar left municipal politics and was elected KamloopsNorth Thompson MLA in May 2017. Ken Christian was elected mayor in a landslide victory in the September byelection, with Kathy Sinclair and Ray Dhaliwal elected to fill Christian’s seat and another left vacant by Marg Spina, who died of cancer in December 2017; • Buses in Kamloops were converted to compressed natural gas; • The city launched its Waste Wise app, offering residents reminders about curbside collection and more;
• Kamloops joined Recycle BC in January 2017, with the program generating about $1.1 million annually for the city; • Building permit values in 2017 topped $224 million, a record amount and an increase from $158 million in 2016. Residential permits were up 19 per cent, at $149 million, compared to $125 million in 2016; • Active business licences increased by five per cent in 2017 (5,796 compared to 5,510) and business-licence closures dropped by 20 per cent; • Major infrastructure projects included the North Thompson emergency water intake ($10 million);
Peterson Creek Park multi-use pathway ($3.2 million), TCC fieldhouse floor replacement ($2 million) and demolition of the former Kamloops Daily News building and creation of a parking lot ($1.1 million.) • The City of Kamloops officially opposed the proposed Ajax mine in July of 2017 before the provincial and federal governments ultimately later quashed the highly controversial copper and gold mining project south of Aberdeen. • The City of Kamloops had a $4.7-million surplus that resulted from better than expected economic conditions and long-term debt paid off sooner than projected.
Tobiano residents vote to join TNRD fire protection JESSICA WALLACE STAFF REPORTER jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com
A fire hall is coming to Tobiano. A petition earlier this month garnered enough support to increase taxes and bring the community’s volunteer fire department under the umbrella of the Thompson-Nicola Regional District. The petition also approved borrowing up to $1 million for the construction of a fire hall in the community on Kamloops Lake, to be built at a date to be determined, with the loan
to be paid back over 20 years. “The details, we need to work through all that,” TNRD CAO Sukh Gill told KTW. Tobiano is one of five communities in the TNRD that will be under regional district fire protection as of Jan. 1, 2019. McLure, Loon Lake, South Green Lake and Little Fort are the remaining four. The TNRD cut funding earlier this year to volunteer fire departments due to liability issues surrounding minimum training and equipment standards set out by the province. It led some fire brigades in the region to
hold referendums and petitions to determine if their fire departments should move under the umbrella of the TNRD. Proponent groups provided the district with feedback about what mechanism would work best for them — a referendum option or a petition, depending on what would be more convenient for residents. “It means we at the regional district will look to hire a position that will support fire services and get them up to speed, get their training up to speed, their administrative records up to speed, work with them,” Gill said.
More than 50 per cent of parcels and assessed values for the area were required for a petition to pass. Petitions were circulated in the Tobiano area beginning on May 28, with a July 6 deadline. One-hundred-and-fifty of 268 parcels (56 per cent) submitted, representing $64.4 million of $103.9 million (62 per cent) of assessed property values. The TNRD has also submitted a resolution the Union of BC Municipalities convention this fall, calling for the province to provide financial support to volunteer fire departments.

Eby: BCLC HQ project not part of labour agreement ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS LOTTERY CORPORATION’S NEW DIGS NOT A LARGE INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT CHRISTOPHER FOULDS
EDITOR
editor@kamloopsthisweek.com
Attorney General David Eby said the pending construction of the B.C. Lottery Corporation’s headquarters in Kamloops will not be impacted by his NDP government’s new community benefits agreement. The labour agreement will see a new Crown corporation — B.C. Infrastructure Benefits — hire union workers for major projects such as highways and bridges. Non-union companies can bid on projects, but their workers will be required to join unions while on the job.
No word yet on laundering inquiry
That agreement led KamloopsSouth Thompson MLA Todd Stone to question whether the future of the BCLC headquarters in Kamloops is in jeopardy. Stone told KTW earlier this month he was concerned the new labour requirements will make the cost estimates too high — and could lead to BCLC moving elsewhere, which would affect 430 jobs in Kamloops. Eby, who was in Kamloops on Wednesday to attend the BCLC’s Music in the Park Midsummer Music Jam reception at Sandman Centre, told KTW the new BCLC headquarters project will not be part of the labour agreement. “The community benefits agree-
ment, the requirements around local labour and apprenticeships and so on, is certainly a priority of government’s,” Eby said. “And it’s designed for very large infrastructure projects, like the Pattullo Bridge, for example, not for projects the size of the BCLC headquarters.” As for the process related to a new BCLC headquarters, Eby said the corporation’s board was scheduled to meet on Thursday to discuss where they are with respect to request for proposals. The BCLC’s current headquarters in downtown Kamloops, next to city hall, is more than 50 years old. “The government is very sup-
Attorney General David Eby said he wants to gather more information before his NDP government decides whether a public inquiry into money laundering in B.C. casinos is warranted. “There’s a lot of pressure for a public inquiry,” Eby told KTW. “The reason we did a review instead of a public inquiry is that we can do a rapid response because I was advised the issue was continuing in B.C. casinos during my initial briefings.” Eby said more information is coming forward, including details from Fred Pinnock, the for-
portive of BCLC here in Kamloops and the contribution they make to the community and the many employees and families that rely on BCLC and need to work in a proper facility that’s modern and appropriate for the work they are asked to do.” Eby noted a formal proposal must be approved by Treasury Board before the first shovel hits the ground. “And if it’s consistent with government’s fiscal plan, then I see no reason why it wouldn’t go forward.” Last fall, the BCLC asked four proponents to respond to a designbuild request for proposal. The quartet included Concert Infrastructure, Fengate
mer head of B.C.’s Integrated Illegal Gambling Enforcement Team. Pinnock has told Vancouver media outlets the previous B.C. Liberal government didn’t crack down on money laundering in casinos because government didn’t want to disrupt the flow of money. Eby said his ministry is setting up a meeting with Pinnock to get more information. “And to ensure he is protected from allegations of defamation or defamation lawsuits, that he can
Development, Gracorp Capital Advisors (representing Riverside Development Partners) and Morguard Investments, which has partnered with general contractor PCL and architectural firm Musson Cattel Mackey. Each was to submit two proposals, one in which BCLC would own the facility and one in which the Crown corporation would sell the facility and lease it back. Deadline for submissions was Feb. 19, with a plan expected to be presented by this summer. The agency is assessing all of its options, including a new building, reconditioning the existing facility on West Seymour Street or adding to the current structure.
provide the information in whistleblower capacity,” Eby said. “And also so that government has all the information we need to make a decision about whether, in fact, it is necessary to move to a public inquiry.” Last month, Peter German, former deputy commissioner of the RCMP, released his report on money-laundering in casinos, which he said is linked to the deadly opioid trade and to realestate transactions in B.C.

BLACK PRESS FILE PHOTO Comedian and writer Seth Rogen, who grew up in the Lower Mainland, was unveiled Thursday as the new voice for announcements on TransLink in Metro Vancouver.
Comedian Seth Rogen to voice announcements on Vancouver public transit CANADIAN PRESS
VANCOUVER — Lower Mainland commuters will soon hear the voice of a familiar funnyman on public transit telling them to keep their bags and dirty shoes off the seats. Actor and comedian Seth Rogen volunteered to be the guest voice of Metro Vancouver’s transit authority, after the transit provider ditched actor Morgan Freeman’s voice amid controversy. In a YouTube video posted by TransLink, Rogen says he will take any opportunity to enrich the lives of Canadians. The Vancouver-born actor says he grew up taking public transportation and still does whenever he’s in the city, especially on his regular trips to the Richmond night market from downtown. In May, TransLink halted public announcements voiced by Freeman, following allegations of harassment and inappropriate behaviour against the Oscar winner. TransLink said Rogen’s distinctive voice and laugh will be heard
SETH ROGEN on transit platforms, SkyTrains and buses across the region in the coming weeks and into the fall. It said in the post that he will be tackling transit etiquette as well as “interesting tidbits’’ about the area and his relationship to Metro Vancouver. In addition to his acting roles, Rogen and fellow Canadian Evan Goldberg co-wrote the films Superbad, Pineapple Express and This Is the End.
Targeted Vancouver shooting is city’s 12th murder of 2018 CANADIAN PRESS
VANCOUVER — Police in Vancouver say one man has been killed in a targeted shooting. Const. Jason Doucette says it happened in northeast Vancouver just before 8 p.m. on Wednesday. Several callers to 911 reported hearing shots fired and responding
officers found the man a short time later. Doucette said in a news release that the unnamed man was rushed to hospital but could not be saved. Based on details gathered early in the investigation, he said police do not believe the public is at risk. The slaying is Vancouver’s 12th homicide of 2018.

Secret tape may Canada’s housing sector faces not add jeopardy high degree of instability: CMHC for Trump, Cohen ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — A secret recording of World News Donald Trump discussing payments to a Playboy model has brought renewed attention to the question of whether and how he might have blocked politically damaging stories ahead of the 2016 presidential election. But it’s not clear the tape by itself creates additional legal problems for the president. The conversation between Trump and his then-lawyer, Michael Cohen, took place after the National Enquirer’s parent company reached a deal to pay Karen McDougal for her story of an affair she says she had with Trump. The recording captures Trump and Cohen discussing acquiring the rights to McDougal’s story. At issue is whether the payment the men are discussing was campaign-related and intended to influence the election. If that’s the case, it would likely be counted as a contribution.
BRIEFS
Khan claims victory after Pakistan vote ISLAMABAD — Former cricket star Imran Khan declared victory Thursday in Pakistan’s parliamentary election and vowed to run the country “as it has never before been run’’ by fighting corruption, seeking regional co-operation and forging a new relationship with the U.S. that was not “one-sided.’’ TV stations reported Khan and his Tehreeke-Insaf party, or PTI, maintained a commanding lead from Wednesday’s balloting. But his leading rival, Shahbaz Sharif, rejected the outcome, citing allegations of vote-rigging. Pakistan’s election commission struggled with technical problems and had to revert to a manual count, delaying the announcement of final results until Friday. That left unclear whether the PTI will have a simple majority in the National Assembly or have to form a coalition government. But that didn’t stop the 65-year-old Khan from proclaiming his triumph in an address to the nation, in which he pledged to create an Islamic welfare state to provide education and employment for the poor to fulfil a campaign promise to create 10 million jobs.
Suspicious fire in Greece kills at least 80 ATHENS — Frantic relatives headed to the Athens morgue Thursday to seek the fate of loved ones still missing after Greece’s deadliest forest fire in decades, a blaze that authorities said they increasingly suspect resulted from arson. Public Order Minister Nikos Toskas said satellite image analysis and ground inspections provided “serious indications’’ the fire that broke out in multiple places within a short time frame Monday and killed at least 82 people was set deliberately. “We have serious indications and significant findings of criminal activity concerning arson,’’ Toskas said. “We are troubled by many factors, and there have been physical findings that are the subject of an investigation.’’ He declined to provide more details. The fire department’s special arson section, which probes all major fires, was conducting the investigation to determine how the wildfire started. The cause of the blaze has not been established. Before Toskas’ news conference, the mayor of the area where it broke out said it might have been sparks from a severed electricity pylon cable.

TORONTO — The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation says the country’s housing sector is facing a high degree of vulnerability to market instability for the eighth straight quarter. The Crown corporation attributed the vulnerability to overvaluation and price acceleration in Toronto, Vancouver,
Victoria and Hamilton. It rated Edmonton, Calgary, Saskatoon and Regina as having moderate levels of vulnerability and Winnipeg, Montreal and Halifax among those with low risks. CMHC said it is seeing signs of moderate overheating in Vancouver although price growth has been slowing over the last two quarters and
detached properties in some areas are seeing declining prices. In Toronto, CMHC said, sales continued to trend lower in the first quarter of 2018, well below the threshold for overheating. CMHC’s quarterly report uses overheating, acceleration of home prices, overvaluations and overbuilding to assess the country’s real estate markets.

GLOBAL VIEWS
Zimbabwe prepares to go to the polls
E
mmerson Dambudzi Mnangagwa, who is nicknamed The Crocodile, is not a fan of the monicker. “I am as soft as wool. I am a very soft person in life,” he said in a recent interview with the BBC. There is probably no more ruthless person active in Zimbabwe’s politics and, three months ago, he looked like a shooin to win the presidential election, due to be held this Monday. It was ED (as he is understandably known for short) whose dismissal as vice-president last year triggered the military coup that finally forced the resignation of Robert Mugabe, the elderly and authoritarian president whose 37-year rule had ruined the country economically. Mnangagwa emerged from that as the interim president of Zimbabwe and this election was supposed to put the seal of legitimacy on his rule. It seemed an easy win because the main opposition party, the Movement for Democratic Change, is an alliance of seven smaller parties, and the MDC’s founder and leader for almost
two decades died in on Mnangagwa February. But it isn’t to maintain their turning out like that privileged status at all. Three months in a relatively poor ago, Mnangagwa led country — and his the new MDC leader, past record contains Nelson Chamisa, a great deal of vioby 11 points in the lence. opinion polls.

Memories
&
He’s probably not afraid to use force again and neither are his generals. But the army’s junior officers might not follow them since they are not getting rich out of the current arrangement. It could get very messy and many Zimbabweans hope for a coalition government after the first round in which Mnangagwa narrowly wins the presidency, but gives experienced MDC leaders most of the powerful ministries. That might work well since Mnangagwa could be a good president as long as his power and wealth were safe. His campaign focuses firmly on fixing the economy, which is in desperate need of repair, and he argues, quite plausibly, that if only the country could show that it was stable, then foreign investment would flood in. Mugabe ruined the economy — at one point the GDP was down by half — and even now Zimbabweans are 15 per cent poorer than they were in 1980. Millions have left the country seeking work elsewhere (mostly in South Africa). But it is rich in resources and it has one of Africa’s best-educated populations: more than two-thirds of Zimbabweans
between the ages of 15 and 49 have attended secondary school. So it really could attract the investment if it emerged from all this as a stable, democratic country, but the paradox is that it might be less stable under a genuinely democratic government led by Chamisa. The threat of military intervention would be everpresent. Yet it is actually possible Chamisa could win more than 50 per cent of the votes and become president in the first round. The unknown factor is the youth vote. Zimbabwe is a young country, with almost half the registered voters under 35, and they have never before voted in a free and fair election. Almost all of them, even the poorest, have mobile phones. They also have a reasonably good education and face a staggeringly high unemployment rate. Are these ambitious, frustrated young men and women more likely vote for dour, 75-year-old Mnangagwa, who bears the stains of almost every crime committed in Mugabe’s long rule, or for a quick-witted, humorous, 40-yearold newcomer called Chamisa? Stay tuned.

“
Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him … do not fret — it leads only to evil.” Psalms 37: 7,8. Centuries after King David wrote the above, most of us need that advice even today with regard to worrying. I am not thinking of serious troubles and sorrows, but of the host of petty little frets and worries, buzzing in like little gnats to spoil the comforts of life. Worry is a dangerous ailment and a hard taskmaster and I think it is especially so in this country. Perhaps I, a newcomer, notice that more than do native-born Canadians. Not only is work more strenuous here than in the old country, but the climate is more exhilarating, more exciting. It excites a man to do sometimes more than is good for him, then it gets on his nerves. It is worse in the United States. But even here, our busy people get a good deal of nerve strain. The rush of work, the endless calls, the continual alertness necessary in business is very exhausting. I think worry is really our danger, not work. I say this because one hears so much talk about the overwork and overpressure of modern ways of living. Our media frequently dwell on it. People say that this overwork and overpressure are the reasons why we need holidays more than our

grandparents did. Worrying is the reason why the businessman breaks down in the midst of his work. People are puzzling doctors with all sorts of new nervous diseases that were not known even 50 years ago. It is worrying, not work, that is our worst trouble. Worry comes not from too much work, but from petty disturbing elements intruding from outside. While the mind is working freely and pleasantly and the wheels are going round smoothly, work is a positive pleasure. When work is a delight, we want almost to sing and rejoice in doing it. But there’s not much good in diagnosing a disease if we cannot suggest a cure. Man feels ashamed to talk of a cure when unable to cure himself. Yet I know there is a cure. Some temperaments are easier to cure than others and the nervous, excitable temperament is not the easiest. But God has His cure for us all. Like others, I am a worried man. I know
I ought not to be. In times of deepest strain, anxiety, planning and keeping things going, one has dim visions of what might be as one keeps trying. The Bible recognizes the disease of worry fully and repeatedly, though I don’t suppose the easy-going easterners had it as much as we do. This is the supreme cure it has to offer — faith and communion with God. Listen to its advice to the poor, fretted, worried soul: “Come unto Me, and I will give you rest. “Take My yoke upon you, and you shall find rest to your souls. “Acquaint yourself with God and be at peace. “Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him, and fret not yourself: for that tends to evil.” Yes, faith, deeper faith is God’s cure for worry. Those who believe in God know that God knows about their worries. I suggest we make three resolutions to get a handle on worries and worrying: • Believing that our daily duties come to us from God, we will arrange those duties methodically. We will have a time for everything and everything in its proper time; • We will determine to arrange each night the duties of tomorrow in their order and bring them to God in prayer; • We will examine the cause of our trou-
bles carefully. Can we get rid of it? If so, we will. Can we not get rid of it? Then we would take it as part of God’s discipline and training for us and bring it to Him in prayer. That is the most important part of the resolution. While making these resolutions about our work and worries, we will be very careful in our private prayer, in our Bible reading. Above all, it is in our regular communions we come to meet the Lord Himself at His altar and let His divine strength pass into our lives. So we come to the philosophy for worried lives, two things we won’t fret as if we are wise men: the thing we can’t help and the thing that we can. I am quite sure these three resolutions would help us in dealing with worries. And to enable us to make them right, let us think truer thoughts about God and truer thoughts about self. Both should be considerable help against worry. ryanmitra225@gmail. com KTW welcomes submissions to its Faith page. Columns should be between 600 and 800 words in length and can be emailed to editor@ kamloops thisweek.com. Please include a very short bio and a photo.

Sue Foley bringing blues to Riverside DALE BASS STAFF REPORTER dale@kamloopsthisweek.com
W
hen Sue Foley was a teenager learning about music, her go-to performers included some of the greats in the blues world — Billy Gibbons, Jimmie Vaughan, Charlie Sexton, The Texas Horns and Chris Layton. Last year, she found herself in a Texas recording studio with them and many others she’s been listening to and learning from in the past since she started recording in the early 1990s. “It was the greatest honour to be there,” she said of the sessions that led to her latest release, The Ice Queen. “To have them acknowledge my existence and then to like me enough to want to record with me, what a great honour.” She’ll be doing some tracks from that release, along with many others from the past almost 30 years she’s been performing, when she takes the stage at the Rotary Bandshell in Riverside Park on Monday as part of the summer’s Music in the Park festival. Foley’s path to becoming a Texas blues guitarist started in her Ottawa home. Her older brothers were into bluesy rock “and that’s where I first heard the blues. I looked up to my brothers and my dad, who also played guitar, and then I started reading books and finding the [blues] greats.” While she learned from listening
to the musicians she now performs with, Foley said she’s always studying the history of the blues — and that has brought Blind Lemon Jefferson into her knowledge base. Known as the father of the Texas Blues, Jefferson is notable for iconic songs like Black Snake Moan and See That My Grave is Kept Clean. “I’m really interested in what came before and what came before that,” Foley said, “so I go back to the beginning, and Blind Lemon Jefferson was the first to start Texas blues. I’m just trying to follow the thread … I keep going back to the well. “I always say, if you can drink from the source, you get the purest water.” Twenty-eight years later, she’s still travelling with Pinky, her paisley pink Fendercaster. “She’s pretty beat up now,” Foley said of the guitar that was a reissue in the late 1980s. “I saw it and said I have to get this guitar. I figured if I had it, people would remember me. Willie Nelson has Trigger [his signature guitar] and Bonnie Raitt has hers and I wanted a signature guitar, too.” Foley said another reason she chose it was to maybe inspire more girls to take up the guitar. “A guitar is your friend for life,” she said. “You can hold onto it and it’s always there. There is power in that comfort.” Music in the Park concerts start at 7 p.m.

Former Kamloops man to talk redemption TIM PETRUK STAFF REPORTER tim@kamloopsthisweek.com
A
former Kamloops man who went from businessman to biker gang member to homeless drug addict to the head of a youth organization will be in the Tournament Capital this weekend signing copies of his first book. To Hell and Back chronicles the ups and downs of Joe Calendino’s life. The son of Italian immigrant parents, he was born in Prince Rupert
before growing up in Kamloops. Calendino said his father suffered from mental illness. He said he struggled to deal with the effects of having a schizophrenic father and ultimately turned to drugs. “I didn’t know how to cope,” he said. “I grew up a bit angry. I continued to make poor choices. By the time I hit Grade 8, I started identifying with drugs, drinking.” Calendino said he was addicted to cocaine by the age of 21, but he managed to stay

Kamloops man vying for title of Canada’s top comic Granville Island Brewing. He’s also toured across Canada, joined the Yuk Yuk’s roster of comedians, performed at comedy festivals and headlined a comedy club for the first time last month. Now he’s got bigger plans for himself. Williams is pursuing the title of Canada’s Top Comic in a contest held by SiriusXM. He’s already made the cut twice and there’s just two rounds to go. He was selected to participate after submitting a video of his comedy chops online before busing out to Calgary to compete on stage. Out of the 60 comedians who performed, Williams was one of 18 selected. The next round of the contest will be decided by the people. Online voting will take place over three weeks to determine eight finalists, who will then move on to perform before a judge’s panel at Toronto’s comedy festival JFL42. While Vancouver is where he lives now, Williams said he’s been back to Kamloops probably 20 times, mostly doing shows at the

A
torn ACL and mounting debt led Ryan Williams into the comedy world head first. After injuring himself playing football with the UBC Thunderbirds while studying history with plans to become a teacher, Williams looked at his debt from school and a coming year he’d have to spend on the sidelines and decided it was time to do what he’s always wanted to do. “I just always wanted to be a comedian,” he told KTW. The 28-year-old Kamloops native, who played for the Broncos and started his sincediscontinued post-secondary career at TRU, has been writing comedy since he graduated high school, but he didn’t hit the stage until he moved to Vancouver. Now he does five to eight shows a week while holding a day job as a construction worker. About half of those shows are open mics, while his other work includes his part in Full Pint Comedy, a weekly show at
Dirty Jersey. That’s where he’ll be on Tuesday for a show at 8 p.m. with Kelowna-based comedian Kyle Patan opening for him. The cover is $10. Much of the comedy world seems to focus around the biggest American cities — Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, but plenty of comedians have come up from Canadian cities, too. “I’m doubling as a struggling comedian and struggling comedy writer. That’s actually more difficult to do in Canada,” Williams said. He’s up for the challenge, though. He’s got plans if he manages to snag the contest’s top prize — $25,000. “I have some stuff written and I know a lot of friends in film — I would probably shoot a web series and try to sell it,” he said. It’s not just the prize money that’s up for grabs, however. Winners will also be featured in a number of upcoming shows, including JFL42, JFL NorthWest in Vancouver, Just For Laughs comedy festival in Montreal (which also includes a TV taping) and will be booked for a JFL show
Kamloops’ own Ryan Williams, competing to become Canada’s Top Comic, describes himself as a “pretty high-energy guy.” If you’re interested in seeing for yourself, catch him at the Dirty Jersey for a show on Tuesday.
in Sydney, Australia. “Winning a contest like this would be life-changing,” he said. This is the first year Williams has applied for the contest. He waited until this year to apply because he wanted “to have an actual shot at winning,” he said.
4 p.m. Admission is by donation and vehicle entries cost $10. Awards for the top hot rods will be handed out at 2 p.m. All proceeds from the event will be used to support the Royal Inland Hospital’s children’s ward, with $25,000 raised over the years. In addition to the cars, visitors can enjoy face painting, a 50/50 draw, races with Hot Wheels, food trucks and a variety of vendors. “You have to have an event based around, not just girls and chrome, you got to have it around families,” said association president Rae Wilson. The event has been held at Prince Charles Park for the past 15 years, but a lack of parking for visitors became an issue as the event grew. Wilson said he’s expecting the 2018 Chrome on the Grass to be one of the association’s biggest events yet. “It should be a great event — rain or shine. No dogs, no alcohol, no golf carts and no burnouts,” he said.

Library updates on schedule
Updates to the entryway at the downtown library in Kamloops are on schedule and on budget, according to the ThompsonNicola Regional District’s chief administrative officer. “They’re shooting to be wrapped up by the tail end of August or early September,” Sukh Gill told KTW. Renovations began earlier this year on the downtown public library, including interior updates and a new cafe space. The entryway is currently getting a face lift, a $866,000 project to create a large foyer and more visible entrance facing Victoria Street. The addition is also intended to improve safety of the entrance area, which is a space known for loitering. Gill said the regional district’s realtor is in discussions with up to three potential tenants for the cafe space, though he would not provide details as to who. He expects the cafe to open in early October.

Going from ‘a full-on drug addict’ to youth outreach From A27
The friend was a full-patch member of the Hells Angels, Calendino said. He began hanging out with the outlaw motorcycle gang in the Lower Mainland before officially becoming a prospect. After years of working his way up the ranks, he achieved member status in the
organization. Calendino was forced to sell his business when higherups discovered he was affiliated with the Hells Angels, he said, and his drug use picked back up. “My behaviour started getting erratic,” he said. “I started using more and more, and I was a handful even for the club.

That was 2005. Jobless and without the safety net provided by his biker buddies, Calendino wound up on the street. “I fell deeper into addiction,” he said. “I spiralled all the way, I lost everything and I ended up on Main and Hastings, a full-on drug addict.” After three years on the street, Calendino
said, a chance runin with another old friend — this one a police officer — changed everything once again. “I was at the end of the line,” he said. “I got caught with $10 of crack cocaine and I was in prison and I see Kevin [Torvik] walk in. I look up at him and say, ‘I never want to see a kid go through this.’”
Torvik, a childhood friend of Calendino’s who was working as an outlaw motorcycle gang investigator, helped him get clean. When he was sober, Calendino cofounded Yo Bro Yo Girl, a youth outreach program aimed at steering kids away from gangs and drugs. Calendino said he’s excited to get back to
Vitamin C for Collagen? W. GIFFORD-JONES, MD – Everyone is talking about collagen these days, and with good reason. As we age, the body’s production of collagen slows down, which can result not only in aging skin, but also contributes to osteoarthritis, osteoporosis and many other conditions, including declining cardiovascular health. This is where vitamin C comes in.
Vitamin C is the single most important water-soluble antioxidant in the human body. Aside from supporting immune health, vitamin C is needed to manufacture collagen, the major component of the body’s connective tissues, including cartilage, tendons, ligaments, bones and most importantly, blood vessels. High doses of vitamin C, combined with lysine, support healthy arteries and overall cardiovascular health. Vitamin C is required to manufacture healthy collagen, the glue that holds coronary cells together, just like mortar is needed for bricks. Lysine, like steel rods in cement, makes collagen stronger. Together they provide healthier arteries and reduce risk of heart attack and stroke. Coronary arteries are under more pressure than any other artery in the body. The heart beats 100,000 times every 24 hours and 2.2 billion times if you live to 70 years of age. Without healthy arteries, this constant pounding causes minute cracks in collagen, resulting in atherosclerosis, blood clots, or rupturing of a weakened artery, resulting in a stroke. As we age, the key to healthy collagen for cardiovascular health, joint health, teeth, gums, wound healing, and more is vitamin C combined with lysine. If that doesn’t convince you, all the beauty experts will also tell you that collagen helps keep skin looking youthful.
I’ve been taking high doses of vitamin C and lysine for 20 years following my heart attack. I still enjoy travelling, writing my columns, and I also rappelled down Toronto City Hall to help raise funds for Make-A-Wish® Canada. I turned 94 this year - not bad!
“For heart health and more, I recommend Medi-C Plus.”
“I’ll be there to answer questions,” he said. “Chapters is going to have a good event and we’re just trying to get the word out that people are not alone in their struggles.” Saturday’s book signing is slated to take place at 1 p.m. at Chapters, 1395 Hillside Dr. For more information call 250377-8468.
HBO’s Deadwood will get a TV movie THE CANADIAN PRESS
BEVERLY HILLS — Deadwood fans can exhale. HBO says it’s greenlighted a long-discussed movie based on the Western drama that ended a dozen years ago. HBO programming chief Casey Bloys said Wednesday that production is scheduled to begin in October. An air date has yet to be set but it could debut in spring 2019, he said. Bloys told a TV critics’ meeting it was a logistical “nightmare’’ getting the ensemble cast’s schedules to align, but it finally worked out. The critically acclaimed, award-winning Deadwood was set in the rough-and-tumble South Dakota mining town of the title. The series aired from 2004-06 with stars including Timothy Olyphant, Ian McShane and Molly Parker. It was created by David Milch, known for his work on the contemporary police dramas NYPD Blue and Hill Street Blues.
Trump’s Hollywood Walk of Fame star vandalized THE CANADIAN PRESS
LOS ANGELES — A vandal has destroyed President Donald Trump’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Los Angeles police officer Ray Brown said the vandalism was reported around 3:30 a.m. Wednesday, and someone was subsequently taken into custody. Brown did not have any further information about the person. Brown says a pickaxe was used in the vandalism. The star placed on Hollywood Boulevard near Highland Avenue in 2007 recognizes Trump for his work on the reality show The Apprentice. Trump’s star was previously vandalized by a man swinging a sledgehammer and pickaxe days before the November 2016 election.

arts&entertainment Hedley frontman’s case on sex offences put over to August CANADIAN PRESS
TORONTO — The case of rock star Jacob Hoggard, who faces three sex-related charges, was put over to next month after a brief court hearing in Toronto on Thursday. Hoggard, the frontman of the band Hedley, was arrested in Toronto on Monday and charged with one count of sexual interference and two counts of sexual assault causing bodily harm. The charges relate to three separate incidents involving a woman and a girl that allegedly occurred in 2016 in the Toronto area, police have said. The 34-year-old musician did not appear in court in person but was represented by his lawyer, Ian Smith, who declined to comment on the details of the case. “I know that there is a not insignificant level of public interest to this matter and, in particular, Mr. Hoggard’s position with respect to the allegations that have been made against him,’’ Smith said outside the court. “That position will all become clear in due course and as appropriate in court, as the matter unfolds.’’ Hoggard is accused of touching a girl under the age of 16 “directly or indirectly ... with a part of his body, for a sexual purpose’’ in April 2016, court documents show. The musician is alleged to have sexually assaulted the same girl in September 2016, and KTW FILE PHOTO alleged to have sexually assaulted Jacob Hoggard, seen here performing at Kamloops’ Sandman Centre a woman in November 2016, the with Hedley, is facing three sex-related charges. documents say.

V
ictoria in the spring is a breath of fresh air. Tulips poke their flowery heads above the soil in a chorus of bright colour and cherry blossoms explode into bloom, dressing the city in a cheery pink. Up early and ready to bike, my nine-year-old daughter Maya and I head out on a morning ride with Charles Horn, owner of the bike tour company The Pedaler. Our first stop is the Goat Run at Beacon Hill Park’s petting zoo and we arrive in the nick of time to watch the action unfold. At 9 a.m. daily, goats of all sizes, ages and colour scramble along a pathway from one end of the zoo to the other. With their expressionfilled faces, scruffy beards and kicking hooves, the goats’ five-minute run is a spectacle greeted by claps and cheers from onlookers. It’s guaranteed to put a smile on even the most serious face. Back on the road, we discover the city’s favourite sites and overlooks are easily accessed by bike with minimal exertion. As a local with many years of island life under his belt, Charles’ tour is peppered with fascinating anecdotes and insights. He leads us along Dallas Road, past Ogden Point, a breakwater stretching one and one-half kilometre into the Strait of Juan de Fuca. When it was completed in 1918, it was built by hand, one massive stone at a time. We careen alongside steep bluffs that descend into crashing surf, long stretches of quiet beach littered with logs. We pass Ross Bay cemetery, the city’s oldest resting place of many early settlers, including the coal baron Robert Dunsmuir. The combination of sunshine and flowers brings dog-walkers, lovers and families out to the city’s favourite spots, many of them just a few minutes’ worth of pedalling
After hiking to a spectacular overlook of Finlayson Arm, hikers literally jump for joy — appearing to jump right off rock cliffs. The view from just one of many guided hikes offers vistas of 600- year-old Douglas fir trees and the valley below. MARC VUKOBRAT AND LAUREN KRAMER PHOTOS
from the downtown core. We end our tour with a plate of hot chips from Jackson’s Ice Cream at Fisherman’s Wharf, a popular gathering place for ice cream and fish and chips. A harbour seal swims lazily between the many float homes and live-aboard fishing boats berthed there. The aroma of sizzling fried fish fills the air. In Saanich — a half-hour drive north of the city — we explore the 22-hectare Butchart Gardens created by Jennie Butchart, whose husband Robert owned a success-
ful cement plant in 1904. A woman with a natural green thumb, she turned an excavated limestone quarry into a spectacular sunken garden, filled with brilliant seasonal colour and winding pathways. When neighbours started whispering about her beautiful grounds, she invited them over and was soon hosting curious community members and dignitaries to view the fruits of her labour. She extended a generous hand to all, inviting them to look around freely, offering tea and refreshments.
Butchart’s great-granddaughter continues the family tradition to this day, although an entrance fee has become essential to keep the gardens in meticulous condition. It’s an effort requiring 75 fulltime staff during the height of the season. Easily our favourite aspect of Victoria’s beauty is her wild side. We sample a taste of her untamed beauty on a couple of hikes before leaving the city. Our first is Goldstream Park, a few minutes drive from the manicured lawns of Butchart Gardens,

offering a setting of dramatic contrasts. Goldstream is home to many 600-year-old Douglas fir trees and lush forests draped in moss. We follow the gushing river along an easy trail to Goldstream Falls — inhaling the sweet, deep scent of the rainforest, we promisie to return in the fall to view spawning salmon. By the time we reach Gowlland Todd Provincial Park for our next hike, the weather turns blustery and grey, but it doesn’t dampen the enthusiasm of our guide. Marc Vukobrat, owner of Hike Victoria, leads us on the sixkilometre hike up the mountain, through a forest, onto an escarpment adorned with dramatic, orange-brown trunks of Arbutus trees. Along the way, Vukobrat entertains us with anecdotes about the massive pileated woodpecker that once swoop-dived him on the trail and a blue grouse that scared him half to death — even explaining the nurse logs, which we pass along our route. “Even in death, these logs continue to provide nourishment to new trees, creating new life,” he says. For the efforts of our climb to 411 metres, we’re rewarded with spectacular views of Finlayson Arm, a winding glacial fjord carved millions of years ago, cutting deep into Vancouver Island. Turkey vultures soar overhead as the wind whistles around us; Vukobrat directs us to “jump rock” for photographs. “If you jump right here, it will look as if you’re jumping right off the cliff,” he says. Getting into position nearby with a long telephoto lens, he captures our jumps vividly — moments of joyful exuberance against the backdrop of a heartstopping view.

Canucks’ prospects arriving for Showcase The World Junior Summer Showcase will begin on Monday, with players from Canada, the U.S., Finland and Sweden staking claims to play for their respective countries at the 2019 World Junior Hockey Championship, which will be held from Dec. 26 to Jan. 5 in Vancouver and Victoria. Canada and the U.S. will ice two teams each — Canada White and Canada Red, and USA Blue and USA White — for games on Monday and Tuesday. The Canadians have not yet revealed the Red and White rosters, while the Americans have already announced their Blue and White teams. Both nations will trim down to one team for games on Thursday and Friday. Find the full schedule at right. The Vancouver Canucks are expected to have four prospects in action next week — goaltender Michal DiPietro and defenceman Jett Woo of Canada, defenceman Quinn Hughes of the U.S. and defenceman Toni Utunen of Finland. THE CANADIANS DiPietro, who the Canucks nabbed in Round 3 of the 2017 NHL Draft, is the leading candidate for Canada’s No. 1 goaltending job at this year’s world juniors. The 19-year-old Windsor Spitfires’ netminder was gutted when he found out he was the last goalie cut by Hockey Canada before the 2018 world juniors in Buffalo. He received a surprise invite this spring to be Canada’s third goaltender at the World Hockey Championship in Denmark and relished the opportunity to earn valuable experience, practicing with the likes of Connor McDavid. “This is something I really want,” DiPietro told Jason Botchford of the Province. “I want to be the starter.

gold here in Vancouver and that’s my goal for Christmastime, and I’m not going to let anyone get in the way of that.” DiPietro, a left-hand glove from Windsor, stands six feet and weighs 200 pounds. The Canucks went to the WHL with the 37th overall selection in the 2018 NHL Draft, picking Moose Jaw Warriors’ defenceman Woo, who turns 18 on Friday. Woo, from Winnipeg, had an injury-shortened 2017-2018 campaign, playing in 44 games, which may have led to him slipping down the draft board. The 6-foot, 201-pound blue liner carries favour with Tim Hunter, the Warriors’ bench boss who will lead Canada at world juniors. “He has that old-school rock ’em, sock ’em where he’s not afraid to lean into somebody,” Hunter told Iain MacIntyre of Sportsnet. “You don’t see a lot of
big hits anymore and he’s willing to do that. And he’s not intimidated if guys want to make him accountable. We had a game in Spokane where he ran over a guy and their supposed tough guy came out and gave him a bit of an ear lashing. And the next shift Jett ran him over, too.” THE AMERICAN Canucks’ fans will be eager to get a look at Hughes, a topprospect D-man the club nabbed seventh overall at the NHL Draft last month. The 18-year-old blue liner’s near future is uncertain. He can either return to the NCAA ranks for a second season at the University of Michigan or turn pro and join the Canucks’ organization. Hughes, 5-foot-10 and 174 pounds, is a skilled defenceman who plays a contrasting style to Woo, an offensive-minded
rearguard who racked up five goals and 29 points in 37 games in his freshman season with the Wolverines. “At the end of the day, we’ve got to figure out what’s best for his development long term because he’s going to be a special player for us,” Canucks’ general manager Jim Benning told MacIntyre. “We don’t want to put him in a situation that he’s not ready for. “I think they’re considering everything right now. If we think he’s ready to play in the NHL and can feel comfortable, then we’ll try to get him signed. And if we think he’s not quite ready for the NHL and we’re just going to sign him and send him to the AHL, then that’s where we’ll talk about whether he’s better off playing another year at the University of Michigan. That’s what we’re working through.” Hughes will play for USA White

Many are expecting the dynamic forward to be the first overall pick in the 2019 NHL Draft. THE FINN Utunen, 18, is a strong-skating defenceman who captained Finland to a gold medal at the under-18 world championship in Russia this spring. The Canucks selected the 5-foot-11, 170-pound D-man in Round 5, 130th overall, at the 2018 NHL Draft Utunen, from Kokkola, had an underwhelming season offensively in 2017-2018 with Leki in the second-tier Finnish league, Mestis, racking up two goals and 12 points in 28 games.

Tristan Murray followed the path Kamloops Broncos’ brass envisioned for homegrown pigskin products. He played Kamloops Community Football, joined a local high school team, attended Thompson Rivers University while playing for the Broncos in the Canadian Junior Football League and is now moving on to the U Sports ranks. “We didn’t want to lose him in his last year, but our goal is to move kids on to the next level and we wish him all the best,” Broncos’ president Dino Bernardo said. “He did more for this program than pretty much any kid has ever done. He’s the kind of guy you model a program after. He was always the first to volunteer and help out in the community.” Murray, the 22-year-old son of Kamloops Blazers’ part-time assistant coach Chris Murray, has committed to the Acadia Axemen and will head to Nova Scotia next month. “It’s intimidating, but it’s not terrifying,” said Murray, a 6-foot3, 280-pound offensive lineman. “This isn’t the only time that I’ve had university recruiters talk to me throughout my career with the Broncos, but staying with them gave me the ability to get more playing experience. I got bigger and stronger and used to playing with older people.” Murray, who played community football with the Westsyde Wildcats in Grade 8, attended Valleyview secondary and toiled for the Vikings from Grade 9 to Grade 12. The Okanagan Sun of Kelowna were
among the teams recruiting Murray out of high school, but he opted to stay home. “I felt like I could make a difference in Kamloops football if I stayed,” Murray said. The sizeable lineman began his Broncos’ career on the defensive side of the ball, but joined the hogs on offence in time for the 2016 B.C. Football Conference campaign. He began earning credits at TRU in Grade 12 and continued taking courses during his four-year tenure with the Broncos. He has two years’ worth of transferrable university credits and plans to earn a degree in kinesiology at Acadia. CJFLers can play two seasons that do not count against U Sports eligibility. After that, they lose one year of eligibility for each season they play. Murray has three years of U Sports eligibility remaining. There are scholarship dollars involved in Murray’s commitment to the Axemen, but he is not permitted to release details. The Broncos, who are not expected to have a strong offensive line this season, will miss Murray, who won the team’s Presidents Award in 2017. “I have no doubt he’ll excel at the next level,” Bernardo said. SUN RISING ON SEASON The Kamloops Broncos will open the 2018 BCFC campaign against the Okanagan Sun of Kelowna on Sunday, Aug. 5. Game time is 4 p.m. at Hillside Stadium.

RiverDogs underdogs in playoff series on Coast The Kamloops Kal Tire RiverDogs finished last in BC Baseball College Prep League regular-season standings, setting up a tough matchup in Round 1 of the playoffs. Kamloops (10-30) will travel to the Lower Mainland this weekend to play the second-place Cloverdale Nationals (28-10) in a best-of-three series, with the winner advancing to the final-four B.C. championship tournament. The Chilliwack Cougars (35-5) placed first to snare an automatic berth at provincials. No. 3 Tri-City (23-17) will play No. 6 Richmond (11-29) and No. 4 Ridge Meadows (18-22) will square off against No. 5 West Kelowna (13-25) in three-game series this weekend to decide the remaining B.C. championship berths.

BRIEFS
Saturday before dropping 12-5 and 7-6 decisions in the Little Apple on Sunday. Jared Pringle pitched a complete game for the Dogs in victory on Saturday, giving up one run on five hits and striking out four batters. Dylan Kooistra and Brendan
Mucha had good outings at the plate in the win. Kamloops joined the College Prep League two years ago and was swept from Round 1 of the postseason in 2016 and 2017. The Dogs posted a 1-5 record against the Nationals this season and
were outscored 51-11. BLAZERS SIGNINGS The imports are inked. Kamloops Blazers’ general manager Matt Bardsley announced on Thursday the signings of Czech Republic forward Martin Lang and Finnish
defenceman Joonas Sillanpää, both of whom were born in 2001 and selected in the CHL Import Draft earlier this summer. Lang, a right shot from Rokycany, stands 5-foot-10 and weighs 165 pounds. He played last season with the HC Plzen under-
18 team and was its top scorer, with 37 goals and 59 points in 35 games. He will play for the U18 Czech Republic team that will compete at the Hlinka Gretzky Cup in Edmonton and Red Deer next month. Lang has international experience playing for the Czech Republic at U16 and U17 events over the past two seasons. At the 2017 Under-17 World Hockey Challenge, he had two goals and an assist, helping the Czechs to a bronze medal. Sillanpää, a 6-foot5,181-pound left-shot defenceman, played last season with HIFK U18 and U20 teams, recording two goals and eight points in 43 games. HIFK is a team based in Helsinki.

Blazers’ part-owner Iginla to retire Calgary Flames’ legend Jarome Iginla is expected to announce his retirement this Monday. The Kamloops Blazers’ part-owner played 20 NHL seasons, 16 of them with the Flames, nine of them as Calgary’s captain. He will finish his career as the Flames’ all-time leader in goals (525), points (1,095) and games played (1,219). Iginla, 41, finished his career with stints in Pittsburgh, Boston, Colorado and Los Angeles, searching for a Stanley Cup victory that never came. The forward from Edmonton racked up 625 goals and 1,300 points in his 20-year career and won the Art Ross Trophy for recording the most points in the league in the 2001-2002 campaign. Iginla represented Canada at the Olympic Winter Games in 2002, 2006 and 2010, win-
ning gold twice. He set up Sidney Crosby’s golden goal against the U.S. in the goldmedal game in Vancouver in 2010. He won two Memorial Cups with the Blazers, in 1994 and 1995, and racked up 63 goals and 136 points in 63 games with Kamloops in the 1995-1996 campaign. The Dallas Stars nabbed him 11th overall at the 1995 NHL Entry Draft. He was dealt to the Flames six months later. Iginla is expected to announce his retirement at 9:30 a.m. at Scotiabank Place in Calgary on Monday.

‘CAPS GET RECORD SUM IN DAVIES DEAL GEMMA KARSTENS-SMITH
CANADIAN PRESS
VANCOUVER — Bob Lenarduzzi says soccer phenom Alphonso Davies catches your eye the first time you watch him play. Lenarduzzi, the Vancouver Whitecaps team president, says Davies has the talent to justify the record-breaking deal confirmed Wednesday that will send the Canadian 17-year-old midfielder from Major League Soccer to German Bundesliga giant Bayern Munich. “You can hear the stadium start to pause when he gets the ball in our end because the anticipation is that he’s going to go coast to coast. And sometimes he does,’’ Lenarduzzi told media Wednesday. “I think he’s a very rare individual because he’s got the whole package. He’s got the mental makeup and the ability.’’ Multiple major soccer clubs were involved in weeks-long talks about acquiring the Canadian international midfielder, Lenarduzzi said, noting there was a “significant difference” between the first bid and final offer. Interest from various clubs grew over the three weeks of talks as Davies continued to produce highlight reel-worthy goals on the field, he added. In the end, Bayern Munich agreed to a transfer deal that the Whitecaps have said could amount to more than US$22 million, the most ever received by an MLS club in the league’s 23-year history. Bayern Munich has said Davies’ contract runs through 2023. Davies said he had always dreamed of the moment where he would sign with a worldrenowned team. “Now that the dream has come true, the work continues as always,’’ Davies, who was in Philadelphia to sign the deal before Bayern played a friendly against Juventus on Wednesday night, said in a statement. The money will be invested back into the sporting side of the club and staff already have their eyes on a few players they want to sign, Lenarduzzi said.

DIG IT: A Kamloops story from 5,000 years ago JOANNE HAMMOND
Dig It is KTW’s regularly published column on the history beneath our feet in the Kamloops region. A group of nine professional archeologists living and working in the area contribute columns to this page and online at kamloopsthisweek.com twice per month.

T
he dust hasn’t settled yet, but recently in Kamloops, a 5,000-year-old archeological site was unearthed during construction. The site is one page in a book. When we read it along with all the others, we start to get a bigpicture view of the human lives lived here over millennia. In this space, we often talk about practical and technical aspects of archeology and how Indigenous traditional knowledge and stewardship inform and support our interpretations of the past. All of those methods and perspectives help to build the story, too. Today, let’s look at what archeology tells us about those lives 5,000 years ago, right here where the North and South Thompson rivers come together at Tk’emlups. Five-thousand years ago, the climate was a bit warmer and drier than today. Very dry desert and grasslands were more extensive and roamed by large herds of elk, antelope, bighorn sheep and deer that provided a steady food source. The mild climate allowed people to live lightly. Shallowly excavated “mat lodges” topped with fibre mats were used in winter and portable, open-air shelters were used the rest of the year, taken along as people travelled to harvest seasonally available plant and animal resources throughout the territory. Five-thousand years ago, the population here was genetically diverse, part of the evidence for direct and indirect contact with the coast and the Columbia plateau. Travel and trade in these regions brought exotic goods to Tk’emlups, such Oregon obsidian and shell beads from coastal regions.
The Kamloops area is rich with archeological gems, like this tool from the past. Coast Salish First Nations people routinely travelled to the Southern Interior to hunt and trade, and exotic goods from as far away as Oregon routinely wound up in the area.
Sometime shortly before 5,000 years ago, people from Coast Salish lands began traveling regularly into this part of the Interior after the prolific salmon runs. At first, these were seasonal trips by small family group who returned to winter in coastal valleys. Gradually, though, they made kin and began to stay. This became what is known as the Salishan migration. For several centuries, there was a slow, transitional process of
mutual acculturation-exchange of genes, technologies, ecological knowledge and languages. We see this in archeological sites where Interior/Coastal traditions and styles commingle. We see it, too, in the roots of the ancestral Secwepemc language family, created as the language of Coyote’s people merged with that of the Salmon people. Shortly after 5,000 years ago, the climate was shifting. Winters became colder and wetter. People
began to build deeper, sturdier, more insulated pit homes in sheltered valleys and a cozy settled winter became part of the seasonal round. About 5,000 years ago, as life became more river-oriented, people turned less often to deer, elk and other upland foods and more and more to salmon. Smoking fish was widely adopted to preserve winter supplies. By 5,000 years ago, salmon made up about 40 per cent of
Secwepemc dietary protein. But people’s diets were still impressively diverse: rabbits, beaver, marmot, muskrat, porcupine, bear, turtle, duck, loon, goose, freshwater fish and mussels and, of course, deer and elk, were in regular rotation around Secwepemc ancestral hearths. Not to mention a bounty of roots, shoots, and berries. Around 5,000 years ago, popular goods included leaf-shaped and lance-like tools that function as knives or projectiles, depending on how you use them. Bone points of all kinds were also common and could be put to many uses, from composite fish hooks to rakes used to collect small fish, mussels or berries to things as simple hair or blanket pins. Even after 5,000 years ago, climate was still a bit unsteady. Characteristic Thompson silts, borne by winds, were deposited in thick layers around this time. For archeology, this means older sites are often deeply buried and hard to find. When you look out across the Kamloops landscape, think of this page from 5,000 years ago. Imagine all the other pages, too. These lands are saturated with history. These lives are marked on the land. All we have to do is read the story. Joanne Hammond is a Kamloops-based archeologist.

Carole was the whole world to me. She passed away in my arms at the Royal Inland Hospital. She has left a gaping whole in my life and my heart, that can’t be filled. She leaves a younger sister Penny and numerous nieces and nephews. She enjoyed travelling, her favourite places to go on vacation were Hawaii and Las Vegas.
In lieu of flowers, we ask that donations be made to the Kamloops Hospice Society.

Q. Should Murray write a Will?
We’re sending a dove to Heaven with a parcel on its wings be careful when you open it it’s full of beautiful things.
A. Yep…even if you have already parted with your worldly goods. Why? There isn’t enough space in this little column to explain the importance, but let give you one reason: the Executor is the one who has to call the funeral home after you’re gone. If there’s no law, it’s the job of your next-of-kin, perhaps a shattered spouse or child. Call me for details.
Inside are a million kisses wrapped up in a million hugs to say how much we miss you and to send you all our love. We hold you close within our hearts and there you will remain to walk with us throughout our life until we meet again.
Love Lor, Mariah & Nigel, Alisha & Erwin and your Mom & Dad.

Obituaries & In Memoriam Donald Elwin Sillars April 2, 1938 – July 17, 2018
It is with such sadness that we announce the passing of Don E. Sillars on July 17, 2018. Though struggling with health issues for a few years, he passed away suddenly at home in Kamloops, BC with his loving wife Jeanette, son Kent and daughter Deanna by his side. Don spent his childhood years living on the family farm in Plenty, Saskatchewan with his parents Lewis and Idelle Sillars, siblings Phyllis, Jean and Roy and pets (including his favorite pet crow, “Joe”). Educated at Briercrest Boarding School and University of Saskatchewan, Don began his family and career in Regina as a Professional Electrical Engineer with SaskPower. In 1966, he took his family west to Burnaby, BC. working at BC Hydro, designing and managing many of BC’s electrical substations until his retirement in 1997. Don and Jeanette were married in 1987, and Krista and Jamie joined the family. Don and Jeanette spent most of their retirement in Blind Bay, BC - their deck, view and hospitality drew many visits from family and friends. It was a perfect place for their blended family to meet and the six grandkids had a lot of fun there together when young. Don enjoyed so many hobbies including curling, golf, dirt biking, fishing, creating rebar lawn sculptures, various electrical projects, bridge and all card games, reading and most recently daily sudoku. He volunteered for the Blind Bay Neighborhood Watch for a few years. For 21 years, Casa Grande, Arizona was his favourite winter home for five months a year. They somehow also managed to adventure to Australia, Europe, Mexico and several cruise destinations. Don’s passing will leave a hole in the hearts of so many friends and family. He was admired by all of us for his intelligence, logical thinking, sense of humour, creative talents, a supernatural ability to focus on the
1955 – 2018
It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of Marvin Camille on July 22, 2018.
Don leaves to mourn his wife Jeanette, son Kent (Julie) Sillars of Langley, BC, daughter Deanna (Roland) Kemperman of Cranbrook, BC, stepson Jamie Ramsey of Chilliwack, BC, stepdaughter Krista (Brian) Halland of Kamloops, BC, grandchildren Braedon, Spencer, and Taylor Sillars, Sam (Angela) of Langley, BC and Scott (Katie) Kemperman of Cranbrook, BC, Chris (Breanna) and Matt Lofgren, Adam (Lauren) and Blayne Halland of Kamloops, BC and four greatgrandchildren. Also mourning Don’s passing are his brother Roy (Dolores) Sillars, sister Jean Holter, sistersin-law Linda Bezanson and Shelley Conrad, many nieces and nephews and wonderful friends. Don was predeceased by his parents Lewis and Idelle Sillars, sister Phyllis Johnson and brothers-in-law Al Johnson, Murray Bezanson and Scottie (Milton) Holter. A Celebration of Donald’s Life will take place from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm on Saturday, September 1, 2018 at the Sandman Signature Langley Hotel (Willoughby Room), 8828 201 St., Langley, BC. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society or the BC Lung Association. Condolences may be expressed to the family from www.myalternatives.ca
Marvin was born on July 23, 1955 at Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops, BC. He was a proud member of the Skeetchestn Indian Band and honoured his heritage and culture throughout his life.

Marvin was predeceased by his parents Rose and Sam Camille. Marvin is survived by his sister Jennifer Camille, his niece Lola Camille and many other family members.

task at hand, interest in the world around him and refusal to complain when his health and mobility deteriorated. When Don and Jeanette downsized in 2016 and moved to Kamloops, he really enjoyed the company of and appreciated the love and support of Krista, Brian and family.
Her legacy should be one of warm memories and shared wisdom_NOT of financial strain. That’s why we’re committed to providing a dignified funeral at a reasonable price. Your loved one would want you to make wise choices on her behalf. And you know she would want to be remembered for who she was - not for how much you spent.
Don’t think of her as gone away, Her journey’s just begun. Life holds so many facets, This earth is only one. Just think of her as resting, From the sorrows and the tears, In a place of warmth and comfort, Where there are no days and years. Think how she must be wishing, That we could know today, How nothing but our sadness, Can really pass away. And think of her as living, In the hearts of those she touched, For nothing loved is ever lost; And she was loved so much.
She leaves behind her three children Barry (Trish) of Kelowna, Darla (Bob) of Kamloops and Vicky (Geoff) of Duncan. She also leaves five grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. She spent many years in Dawson Creek and Kamloops. Family history became a passion and she travelled all over BC and the northern states looking up long lost cousins and relatives. She loved Hawaii and Arizona and cowboy music. Thank you to everyone who touched her life. No service, no flowers please consider donations to your local hospice, Alzheimer ‘s Society or the Cancer Society.
