Re-Elect Christian for Mayor
Kamloops This Week will be hosting an all-candidates forum at Thompson Rivers University during the week of the civic election. The free public event will be held on Monday, Oct. 15, from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m., in the Grand Hall on the second floor of the Campus Activity Centre. To accommodate a lengthy list of candidates, the format will include five mini-forums, 25 minutes each in length. The mayoral candidates will be up first, offering two-minute opening statements before answering questions from the audience and wrapping up with closing remarks. Councillor candidates will follow, but will get one-minute statements. Councillor candidate groups will be drawn at random immediately before the forum. The municipal election is on Oct. 20. Twenty-one people are running for one of eight councillor seats, while two are running for mayor.

Seymour will not seek another term as Tk’emlups band chief JESSICA WALLACE STAFF REPORTER jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com
Tk’emlups te Secwepemc chief Fred Seymour will not be seeking re-election on Nov. 10. “It’s come time for me to take a step back and see what the future holds for myself,” Seymour told KTW. “I’ve got to reconnect with my family and maybe some other people are into politics for life but for myself it’s reconnecting with my immediate family and kids and grandchildren, spending more time with them. I’m getting older and my mom’s getting older.” Seymour became chief of the Tk’emlups Indian band in 2015 and was a former band councillor for five terms, between 2000 and 2015. In 2015, he became chief after besting challenger Frank Paul by four votes. While he will not be running this time around, Seymour said he will reconsider in time for the next three-year term. “I’m not saying that I’m out forever,” he said. When elected in 2015, Seymour succeeded former chief Shane Gottfriedson and pledged to make economic development one of his top priorities. Wrapping up his lone term as chief, Seymour noted a new reservoir approved by the Tk’emlups council and other major projects are in the works. “It takes time and it takes dollars to get infrastructure in place,” Seymour said. A partnership with the City of
KTW FILE PHOTO Tk’emlups Indian Band Chief Fred Seymour is not seeking re-election, citing a desire to spend more time with his family.
Kamloops and BC Transit led to the recent addition of a bus route on the reserve. Seymour called it a safe link to and from the city. He also touted during his term as chief the success of preventing the KGHM Ajax Mine project from going ahead in Aberdeen. The St’kemlups te Secwepemc denied consent to the company to develop a copper and gold mine at Jacko Lake. The project was later turned down by the provincial and federal governments.

“We done what we had to do to protect the land there,” Seymour said. Seymour made his plans not to run public via a letter headed to Kamloops city council on Tuesday, during its regular meeting. “I want to reassure the City that I will endeavour to always work with my community to keep the bridge open between our two communities,” Seymour wrote to the city. It is unclear who will be running for chief in his absence, though a list of candidates will be available at a later time.

HOW DO I READ THIS CHART? Candidates are colour-coded and non-candidate common nominators (any person who nominated more than one candidate) are grey in the middle of the graph. Lines are drawn from the nominator to the nominee and grey lines connect candidates who nominated each other. For example, William Turnbull nominated Shawn Harnett, co-nominated Beat Klossner and was nominated by Randy Wagner and Jennifer Turnbull. Candidates with no connections have no shared nominators.

High school teacher’s employment with SD73 ended after allegations he groped a Grade 8 student in November last year TIM PETRUK STAFF REPORTER tim@kamloopsthisweek.com
A former teacher at a Kamloops-Thompson school district high school accused of sexually assaulting a female Grade 8 student last year could find out next month whether or not a judge has found him guilty. The teacher cannot be named under a court-ordered publication ban put in place to protect the identity of the complainant, nor can the school at which the alleged incident took place be identified. Police were contacted in November 2017 after the complainant and two friends told another teacher about a pair of incidents earlier in the month, both involving the same student and teacher. The teacher stood trial last week in Kamloops provincial court on charges of sexually touching a person under 16 and sexual assault. In court on Friday, the complainant, now 15, testified by way of video link from a sepa-
rate room in the Kamloops Law Courts, an accommodation often made in sexual assault trials. She said the first incident took place at some point in November when she forgot her water bottle in the teacher’s classroom. According to the girl, she went to retrieve the bottle and the teacher rubbed her back before groping her backside. The second incident, about a week later, took place in the teacher’s office, court heard. The girl said the teacher called her out of another class and to his office, where they began a conversation and he closed the door. “I don’t know how but we were talking,” she said. “We got on the topic of heartbeats. He went to feel where mine was.” The girl put her hand on the left side of her chest. “Mine is over here, but he put his hand way down here,” she said, referencing her right breast. “I just backed up.” The girl said she left the office, but did not tell anyone
about either incident until days later, when she confided in friends. “When he had his hand on you, how did you feel?” Crown prosecutor Evan Goulet asked. “Very uncomfortable,” the girl replied. “Did you give him permission at all to touch you?” Goulet asked. “No,” the girl responded. “Why did you wait a couple of days before telling anybody?” Goulet asked. “Because I was scared,” the girl replied. In a statement, the Kamloops-Thompson school district said the teacher was “removed from duties” immediately following the girl’s allegations. “The employee is not currently working in the KamloopsThompson school district,” the statement reads. The trial concluded on Friday. Lawyers are set to meet on Thursday to set a date for a decision from Judge Marianne Armstrong.

ASK CANDIDATES TOUGH QUESTIONS
I
t’s an opportunity that comes along once every four years and it shouldn’t be missed. The municipal election to decide who fills the mayor’s chair and councillors’ seats is rapidly approaching, and we believe the more input from residents the better. Whether you have concerns about policing, traffic, development or a host of other topics discussed with regularity in local coffee shops or watering holes, the weeks leading up to the Oct. 20 election play a crucial role in our community’s future. While most candidates have established a platform outlining their priorities, a few strategic questions that may have flown under the radar can play a critical role in how the final results are tabulated. If you haven’t given any thought to what questions you would ask the candidates, there’s still plenty of time to come up with a way to articulate what matters to you before the election. You will also provide a valuable service to your neighbours by forcing those seeking office to be clear about where they stand. You could even take a few moments to formulate a few queries on topics of importance to you and phone the candidate in question, or email them, if that’s more convenient. The electronic version, although less personal, will provide a written record that may be useful if the need to hold someone’s feet to the fire arises in the future. Facebook or social media platforms can also be a useful tool for this, as most candidates will have an online presence, and comments and questions can be posted for all to read. And be prepared to speak your mind in a polite, forthright fashion if someone seeking office shows up at your door. There’s a strong case to be made for the fact that every vote matters, and every question as well, especially at the municipal level. Local politics is where your voice will carry the most weight, and potentially make the biggest difference. — Black Press

e have successfully completed our first few weeks of school and are beginning to settle into our fall routines. In my recent tour of schools, I observed high levels of student engagement in their learning. Quality teaching and learning is what we do. School District 73 is entering the second year of our strategic plan which focuses on connecting students to their interests and passions while ensuring they have a strong foundation in literacy, numeracy and the competencies needed for an ever-changing world. This includes learning experiences that embed Indigenous understandings as we work together to build a stronger nation. We will continue to emphasize providing relevant, handson learning experiences that use the core competencies of critical thinking, creativity and communication. As well, an emphasis on early learning and transitioning to school for kindergarten students is a top priority. A strong start at school is key to long-term student success. Our strong efforts in literacy are paying dividends and we will now apply a similar strategy in numeracy. This year the redesigned curriculum in grades K-10 has been implemented and our eyes are now set on preparing for the onset of the new gradua-

tion program in 2019-2020. The BC Policy for Student Success provides greater flexibility for teachers to address the interests of students, preparing them for a successful transition to postsecondary school and the world of work. Space continues to be a challenge at various schools in our district. We are working with our Ministry partners to ensure our needs are known and we are optimistic that there will be a capital funding announcement for Valleyview secondary in the near future. In the meantime, we are addressing space issues across the district through the addition of portables and infrastructure enhancement. This summer, four additional portables and facility improvements were made at various sites for a total cost of $3.5 million. We have also prioritized improving communication with parents. Over the summer, we
launched a new district website and soon each of the 45 schools in our district will have a refreshed website. The new websites will work in conjunction with a mobile app, allowing parents to receive news and alerts straight to their device from each child’s school. Please watch school websites and newsletters for further information on timelines for these upgrades.
WE’RE IN THIS TOGETHER
Along with parents and our community partners we will also continue to tackle the social issues that affect young people, such as the impact of social media on relationships and the opioid crisis. These unprecedented challenges require open dialogue and strong community partnerships and must be a priority for us all. Parents are a child’s most important teacher and play a vital role in their learning. I encourage all parents to remain involved and engaged in their child’s classroom and school. With the help of parents, our community partners and the district’s new strategic plan, we are extremely well positioned to connect our students to a very bright future. Alison Sidow is the superintendent of the KamloopsThompson school district. She can be contacted by email at asidow@sd73.bc.ca or by phone at 250-374-0679.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
AFTER SHOOTING, I HAVE QUESTIONS
A selection of comments on KTW stories, culled online RE: LETTER: CANDIDATES WHO DON’T SHOW UP SHOULD EXPLAIN THEIR ABSENCES:
Editor: I have some questions following recent events and I am not the only one (‘One man killed in shootout with Kamloops police: RCMP,’ Sept. 14). What was this man doing in Rose Hill? Why was he shot and killed? Was he out there to harm people or was he target shooting and was killed by mistake? What about the person who was caught in the bush with a weapon at McArthur Island last week? Was he out to harm people? What about all the people lately barricading themselves inside their homes threatening to harm themselves? There are a lot of mentally ill people out there and in our own areas. I see many every day on the streets of the North Shore. There is a huge need in our community for mental health awareness and emotional and spiritual healing in our city, though it is a great place in which to grow up and live. John Yuzik Kamloops
“It is common courtesy if you cannot attend a meeting, to send your apologies for not being in attendance. This forum was very important. It showcased the candidates who hope to be elected. “By not showing up and not sending their apologies for a no-show, they do not make a very good impression. It is almost as if they just could not be bothered.” — posted by Doreen Harrison
CITY’S FLORAL WORK IS APPRECIATED
Call to United Way solved my problem Editor: I am a person with disabilities (allowance) and I’m not getting any younger, so I have a very hard time doing relatively simple things that I, alone, can’t do any more. I can’t recall how it happened, but I called the United Way Thompson Nicola Cariboo and explained my situation. They made me feel that humanity exists. Within hours, my doorstep was blessed by two young smiling ladies that helped me complete what I thought could not be done. A big thank you, United Way. Ken Stowell Kamloops
Editor: The city’s parks department deserves much praise for the many and creative floral displays that make our city so beautiful. Some examples of their ability and dedication to the design, installation and maintenance of the many sites throughout the city include: the lawn of the Old Courthouse, entrance to Kamloops Museum and Archives, Red Bridge, Riverside Park, McArthur Park, and on the
North Shore, as well as the many pots and hanging baskets throughout. They are always different, always interesting and beautiful. This year and last, they worked through intense heat and dense smoke. Currently, they are dismantling and preparing the sites for winter. Thank you so much.
Editor: A huge bouquet to the city staff responsible for all the beautiful hanging baskets and flower beds throughout the city. They add that special touch to make our city more
attractive to both residents and tourists. Thanks for your continuing efforts. They are much appreciated. Carol Bacon Kamloops

Candidate
Q&As
KTW is querying the candidates on your behalf. Each Wednesday between now and Oct. 20’s civic election, we will publish their answers to specific questions. Nearly all of the 33 people seeking election in mayoral, council and school trustee races are taking part and their answers are on these two pages.
KEN CHRISTIAN mayoral candidate (i) The next step the city needs to take is to move from temporary transition housing to more permanent supported housing options. We need to work with BC Housing, the health authority and the various providers to ensure that there is adequate mental health wrap-around services and adequate detox options available when they are required. It is only with an address that individuals can start a path to recovery and wellness.
NICHOLAS ADAMS council candidate There can always be more done for those in our society who need it most. We can not take our eye off the ball when it comes to housing and addiction support. However, after someone has had their housing and food needs satisfied and addiction or mental health problems addressed, the next step must be in creating opportunity for them in our community. Opportunity can be employment, cultural or recreational.
DONOVAN CAVERS council candidate (i) Solving the nuanced issues surrounding addiction, mental health, homelessness and self medication is primarily a provincial government responsibility as the province is unequivocally responsible for the healthcare system. The new BC government is certainly more amenable to investing in health but we must remain focused and ready for partnership opportunities as they are prepared and announced.
DIETER DUDY council candidate (i)
THIS WEEK’S QUESTIONS COUNCIL/MAYORAL: Considering what the city has done thus far to address the linked issues of addiction and homelessness, what should be the next step taken by city council? SCHOOL TRUSTEE: More portables have been added to schools with enrolment issues. Do you support opening schools that were closed in the past few years? Why or why not?
WILLIAM TURNBULL mayoral candidate Immediately set up a temporary emergency shelter.
Create an incentive program for developers providing a development-cost charge reduction if they designate a percentage of units/houses to low-income and no-income people. It has been in place in other Canadian municipalities for years. Could we offer homeowners a similar tax reduction for a period of time if they accept a treatment centre that would fit into the streetscape? I would like to look into that possibility.
We will need to review the successes and challenges of the current council plan. We cannot forget the lack of support for mental illness. That is just as much a part of this puzzle. Given that Crossroads Inn is no longer able to provide support for clients with mental illness, who is supporting these people? We need to do better when it comes to housing for all people. No one can participate in society if they do not have somewhere safe to live.
CORALLY DELWO council candidate The city council needs to collaborate with Interior Health to come up with better treatment facilities and more beds to help addicts recover. We have three steps to helping them recover: 1) Detox; 2) Treatment; and 3) Second-stage housing. The city needs to come up with an economical plan that includes lobbying the provincial and federal governments to look at and fund the recovery of addicts. We have to get to the root of the issues.
DENNIS GIESBRECHT council candidate
SHAWN HARNETT council candidate
SADIE HUNTER council candidate It’s not so much a next step as a continuation of focus on working together with agencies to address these issues in the most constructive way possible while ensuring public safety. One of the most important roles of council is to be a facilitator and advocate for the agencies who are on the ground working at various levels to help individuals experiencing homelessness and addiction.
DECISION ’18 25
VERBAL BOUTS!
KEN CHRISTIAN
vs. WILLIAM TURNBULL
Organizations and social agencies that have been funded to help care for those with mental health and addiction issues need to serve the ones they are funded to serve. Social agencies can change their mandates, but there should be core reviews on service delivery to ensure that tax dollars are going where they should be. Bringing social agencies’ housing projects into alignment with the laws that protect residents must be reviewed.
CHRIS BOSE council candidate
With the announced and upcoming announcements on homeless housing initiatives, Kamloops council must push hard to ensure the wrap-around services are supplied by Interior Health. Most of the street folks need counseling and treatment, a bed is a great start but help moving to a healthy lifestyle will provide the long-term solution.
minute
JENNIFER DAWN ADAMS council candidate
DALE BASS council candidate
This is a very complex, frustrating, tragic and emotional issue. As our city grows, so too will our homeless community. The link between addictions and homelessness is very real and it becomes a chicken-and-egg questions. Do we deal with addictions first or do we work on housing our less fortunate citizens first and then provide the wraparound services that can help to deal with the addiction issue? In my opinion, I feel we go with the latter.
I think council needs to realize that these issues should be top of their list and receive top priority until a viable plan of action, that will actually produce results, is in place.
Some answers edited for length and style. Incumbents marked with “i.”
RAY DHALIWAL council candidate (i) (No response received by KTW press time.)
ALISON KLIE council candidate We need to look at our current programs and find out how effective they are. More taxpayer money is being requested to be spent on these programs even though homelessness, crime and addiction numbers are trending upwards. We need to find out if what we are doing is helping and rehabilitating people or if it is enabling these behaviours and actually attracting more of these issues to Kamloops. I feel right now we are only treating the symptoms.
STEPHEN KARPUK council candidate I think it is time for the community to step up because the only proven way to fix this problem is when the whole community gets involved. One idea I have is to open the old Rayleigh correctional site for patients. Have them learn job skills and farm the fields while getting the help they need. It would give them a “hand-up opportunity” plus some self-worth and the food could be used to feed them and the food bank.

LOCAL NEWS CAROLINE KING council candidate
JIMMY JOHAL council candidate
MIKE O’REILLY council candidate
The city has recently announced the Mission Flats housing project, which will take some strain off the current system and, I think, is a good step. I believe we will need a few more options moving forward but I think we’re on the right track. The one issue that concerns me is the lack of a 24-hour shelter for those that don’t fit the current housing requirements. I am also deeply concerned about the dangers posed by discarded needles that litter many areas.
Addiction and mental health can be serious illnesses. Housing the homeless is not some magical pill that will fix everything, but it is a step forward. The city needs to ensure supports for these individuals are readily available and properly funded by the province, especially timely access to treatment centres. The city should ensure there is access to housing and have plans in place to deal with any negative consequences, as well.
While the city has done a good job acquiring pieces of property for homelessness I believe it is time to start investing in low-income housing. Rent has been rising in Kamloops making everyday living for low-income earners and people on a fixed budget, including seniors and single parents, more difficult. I believe the city should approach Interior Health alongside Kelowna, Vernon and Penticton and lobby for increased mental-health services.
BILL SARAI council candidate
ARJUN SINGH council candidate (i)
City council needs to push Interior Health to bring back the needle exchange program and also relocate the safe-injection sites away from day cares and senior centres. City council, with the assistance of IHA, needs to push all three levels of government for more treatment beds. If we just stay status quo it will be a revolving door and a Band-Aid solution.
Considering the city has already helped facilitate and support new shelters and housing and lobbied the provincial government for more supports to help people with mental health and addiction issues, the next step should be a concerted effort to work with community partners to identify the gaps in our supports and housing and to work hard together to fill those gaps. I would advocate for the city to consider funding more supports.
DENIS WALSH council candidate (i) I think city hall has taken the various issues linked to addiction and homelessness very seriously during the past term. By working with the province, city hall has helped to facilitate the movement of nearly 200 people into appropriate shelters. A strong relationship with the province is essential, as they have resources and skill sets required to help the City of Kamloops deal with these issues. Much more effort is needed. We can do better.
DONOVAN CAVERS school trustee candidate
Foster economic development and work opportunities. To break the cycle of addiction and homelessness, people need the opportunity to work. Direct support from the city could include property tax rebates for service agencies and subsidized transit passes.
(No response received by KTW press time.)
HEATHER GRIEVE school trustee candidate
There is a lot that needs to be taken into consideration and simply re-opening the schools may not be a long term solution. My initial reaction would be re-open the schools, but this difficult decision to close the schools was made by a previous board. What we really need is to take a realistic look at the changing demographics of the district and make sure that we’re funnelling resources into the areas that need it most.
A core problem facing our school district is that student populations are concentrated far from older and closed school facilities. If you gave a parent in Valleyview the choice between a portable at their neighbourhood school or their child being transported across town to a re-opened facility, they would likely opt to stay close to home. Proper capital planning means looking decades into the future to ensure families have reasonable options.
JOE SMALL school trustee candidate (i)
Portables are expensive and designed to be shortterm solutions, yet are being used as long-term solutions, with some already due for replacement. Each year, I see more portables added to Valleyview secondary, which now has nine. I have watched the basketball courts, once full of kids playing, become a row of portables. Our district needs to continue advocating vigorously for more capital funding from the government.
MEGHAN WADE school trustee candidate (i)
I would support opening schools that have been closed if those schools were in areas experiencing enrolment growth. Unfortunately they are not. We have three schools we could re-open — Westsyde, Ralph Bell, and Happyvale. If we did re-open these schools, where will the students come from? Until the provincial government admits that School District 73 needs capital funding to build new schools, portables continue to be the best alternative.

This is not a simple question with a simple answer. Not all closed schools are in areas where there are enrolment pressures. For example, McGowan elementary has portables now because over 100 Pineview Valley students are bused there. In addition there are no closed high schools to re-open so Valleyview Secondary has nine portables. This issue demands a broad community conversation, which I am in full support of having.

Portables are a temporary solution. A report from the June 25 board meeting mentions 32 portables will be needed at a cost of over $5 million. SD73 seems to make a temporary situation into a permanent one. That is not good enough. What we need is the re-opening of schools like Westsyde elementary and Ralph Bell. These schools and grounds are being maintained and it would be cost efficient and relatively simple to re-open them.

I believe portables to be a complex issue that deserves a close look at catchment areas and enrolment numbers. However, I do feel that too many portables at a school can be a bad thing, but at the same time portables can be fiscally responsible with moderate enrolment growth in a school and a fair decision to use. I would be interested in working towards capital projects to improve our existing schools as well as possible new schools.
BEAT KLOSSNER school trustee candidate
Portables have been added where needed, but that is not always where closed schools are. Brock and the North Shore have two closed schools but only two portables. There are two or three portables at some schools in Aberdeen, but no closed schools. Valleyview secondary has nine portables, but no high schools were closed, so there are no appropriate spaces to re-open. Re-opening Westsyde elementary is something to consider.

ADAM JENSEN school trustee candidate
Addressing the need for additional classroom space requires careful analysis of projections of future enrolment. The role of portables should be a temporary solution to deal with increased school enrolment. As a member of the board of education, I would support reopening schools and/or a building program in the area where the enrolment increase occurs and is projected to be long-term.

The opposite of addiction is connection, and it’s pretty tough to connect with anyone and move forward when you don’t have a roof over your head. Council needs to continue the momentum of the numerous supported housing projects we’ve unanimously approved over the past year. Some say that costs of these projects are too great, but the costs of doing nothing are far greater.

Delay in retrial of Kamloops man accused in ‘chop shop’ for firearms Charles Patrick walked free in 2015 after judge tossed evidence, prosecutors appealed on Oct. 22, but due to the unavailability of his new legal counsel on that day, Justice Sheri Donegan granted an adjournment and a new trial date will be fixed next Monday. Donegan said it was with “great reluctance” that she granted the adjournment. She said she expects the new trial date to be set to take place in the next few months. Patrick was stopped by police in December 2013. A search turned up a sawed-off shotgun stuffed in his jacket.
MICHAEL POTESTIO
STAFF REPORTER

A scheduling conflict has pushed back the trial date for a Kamloops man accused in 2013 of running a “chop shop” for firearms after Canada’s highest court refused to hear his appeal. Charles Patrick faces firearms charges including carrying a concealed weapon and occupying a vehicle where there is a firearm. The trial was set to take place in B.C. Supreme Court beginning
Police then obtained a warrant to search his house, court heard, uncovering items including additional firearms. In 2015, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Hope Hyslop ruled the searches illegal. She excluded all of the seized firearms as evidence and Patrick walked free. Hyslop made the ruling based on a question from an RCMP corporal who questioned Patrick — specifically asking him, “Do you have something on you?” — prior to his arrest.
Will voter turnout rise in this year’s civic election? Turnout in Kamloops was 21 per cent in 2017 KAMLOOPS THIS WEEK
A Thompson Rivers University professor says health care is more likely to be protected than student tuition fees. Why is that? “Young people don’t vote,” Derek Cook told KTW. Voter turnout has been abysmal in recent years in Kamloops. Last year, 21 per cent of registered voters turned up to the polls for the 2017 byelection, which saw the first new mayor elected in Kamloops in a decade. In that election, six candidates ran for the mayor’s chair, which saw Ken Christian win handily with 64 per cent of the vote. This year, one candidate — William Turnbull — has challenged Christian and has admitted he is running, in part, to ensure the mayor is not acclaimed. “Who knows?” Turnbull said during an all-candidates forum at the Kamloops Regional Farmers’ Market,
noting Coun. Dieter Dudy previously came close to dethroning former Mayor Peter Milobar. During the last municipal general election, which was held in 2014, 22,672 of eligible voters in Kamloops — 33 per cent — voted. The city faired slightly worse than the average B.C. city that year, which saw 36 per cent voter turnout, but well below the best city of Greenwood, which saw 70 per cent voter turnout. The city to receive the worst voter turnout of any city in B.C. in 2014 was Fort St. John, with just 15 per cent. Asked why voter turnout continues to be low, Cook said people don’t understand the political system. It takes work to take part in the democratic process, he said. As an academic professor paid to teach political theory, Cook said he is partly responsible for teaching those systems but he also pointed to a bigger picture. “Citizens who are aware are responsible,” Cook said.

According to Hyslop, that question violated Patrick’s Charter rights. The Crown appealed the decision and the B.C. Court of Appeal overturned part of Hyslop’s ruling, allowing the shotgun to remain as evidence, but excluding everything alleged to have been found at Patrick’s home. Patrick’s lawyers then attempted to appeal the higher court’s decision to the Supreme Court of Canada, but a three-judge panel in Ottawa last October refused to hear the appeal.

End of Life Education – Let’s Start the Conversation
W
e are excited as we look forward to our new Community Services Center, an incredible gift provided by the Cooper Family Foundation. One of the highlights of our new building expansion is our amazing Workshop Room. We are in the process of developing educational programs which will be hosted in our new Center; workshops will be available for family caregivers, Healthcare Professionals, community groups, and the general public. One of the programs that we are already hosting for the general public is described below.
Advance Care Planning, ACP-The Power of Conversation
We will all die some time down the road and we hope that road is long and windy with many experiences for living a full and beautiful life. However; the roadmap of life is uncertain and without introducing conversations about what is important to us around health care decisions, our families/friend(s) will be left guessing at what we would want if we were unable to speak for ourselves. ACP is where capable adults share their beliefs, values and wishes for health care decisions with their close family/friend(s) and health care provider in advance of a time when they may be incapable of deciding for themselves. Conversations about end of life can be difficult, so let’s shift that way of thinking to conversations about living well and focus on what is most meaningful to us. THINK about what’s important to you related to our beliefs, values and wishes regarding health care. START the conversation with family/friend(s) and health care provider about what treatments you would or wouldn’t accept. We should all have an ACP regardless of our health status or age. These discussions will change over time, and should be revisited; when health changes, a birth of a child, marriage/divorce etc. COMMUNICATE your wishes verbally or in writing to your loved ones. Chose a Substitute Decision Maker, someone you trust completely, who could speak on your behalf and honour your wishes. ACP is a gift to your loved ones. They won’t need to guess, carry guilt or regret if ever having to make a choice around medical interventions which could sustain or end life. For more information or upcoming workshop contact Kamloops Hospice Association 250.372.1336/www.kamloopshospice.com Next Workshop October 4th, call to reserve your spot. It’s never too soon but it could be too late. — Pamela Young, Community Program Coordinator Kamloops Hospice Association

Orcas challenging but not preventing approval of pipeline expansion: minister CANADIAN PRESS
OTTAWA — The federal fisheries minister says it will be harder for cabinet to give another green light to the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion if — or more likely when — the National Energy Board’s new environmental review determines the project is going to harm killer whales. Jonathan Wilkinson says such a finding wouldn’t mean cabinet will reject the project — but ministers will have to be convinced there are appropriate measures in place to protect the whales.
The pipeline is in limbo after the Federal Court of Appeal overturned its approval citing a lack of proper consultation with Indigenous communities, and the fact the National Energy Board failed to properly examine or consider negative environmental impacts of having more oil tankers leaving from Vancouver. The NEB did determine the additional tankers, which amount to about six more each week, would harm the whales but didn’t take that into account in its original recommendation to approve the project because it deemed marine shipping
was outside its jurisdiction and could not be considered. Wilkinson said the government is looking at what else it can do but argues it has made great strides in whale protection including limits on fishing and closing shipping lanes in the areas the whales tend to congregate. Misty MacDuffee, a biologist with Rainforest Conservation Foundation, said what the whales really need is fewer ships in the waters — because any increase may be the last straw that sends the Southern resident killer whales into extinction.
Homeless people complain they are cut off in B.C. park, want action CANADIAN PRESS
LANGFORD — A homeless woman living at a Vancouver Island campground with nearly three dozen others says vulnerable people aren’t getting support from their families because officials have locked the gates to the public. Chrissy Brett is one of 34 people who moved a week ago to Goldstream Provincial Park in Langford after being ousted
from another park in nearby Saanich following a successful court injunction by that city. Brett, 43, said Tuesday that a pastor who tried to take two disabled people to their regular church service was barred from entering on the weekend. Homeless people must sign in and out of the park, she said. Couples, seniors on pensions and young people who are underemployed are among those living in the park and

they’re counting on each other for support, Brett said. “I think it is easier to survive when you’re a larger group. It’s easier to cook food, it’s easier for emotional support, it’s easier for organization, it’s easier for safety when people are hating on the homeless.’’ Officials have said the park gates were closed due to safety concerns but Brett said that has created unfounded fears among neighbours .

Goodale tours Ottawa area destroyed by tornado
Trudeau embarks on charm offensive as UN fixates on Trump CANADIAN PRESS
CANADIAN PRESS
DUNROBIN, Ont. — Canada’s public safety minister says the federal government is playing a supporting role to provinces and municipalities as they back recovery efforts for communities battered last week by multiple tornadoes in the national capital region. Ralph Goodale toured the Ontario community of Dunrobin, west of Ottawa, where locals are still reeling after a powerful tornado ripped through the town. He said some of the modern homes hit hardest in the area looked like they had gone “through a grinder.’’ Environment Canada says six tornadoes swept across the Ottawa area and through the neighbouring Quebec region on Friday — levelling homes and knocking out power grids along their way. Conrad Sauve, the president of the Canadian Red Cross, said Tuesday that more than 1,500 people in Quebec and Ontario had registered with the organization. He said the Red Cross had provided shelter to over 600 residents, primarily in the Quebec city of Gatineau. Goodale said the federal government has not provided financial assistance because the first portion of response and recovery costs are covered by the provinces.
NEW YORK — Canada embarked on a high-level Big Apple charm offensive of sorts Tuesday as U.S. President Donald Trump barrelled into the UN General Assembly with his trademark bombast and braggadocio, singing the praises of his protectionist “America First’’ agenda to decidedly mixed reviews. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and lieutenants Chrystia Freeland and Jim Carr began their day far from the gridlock and diplomatic mayhem of Trump Day at the United Nations, choosing instead to wave the Canadian flag at an early-morning gathering of the Council on Foreign Relations. And while the divisive U.S. president was never mentioned by name, his larger-than-life impact was ever-present Tuesday, whether in the chaotic New York traffic, the must-see-TV vibe of his General Assembly speech or in the vision spelled out by Canada’s leaders. For the better part of the last 70 years, the United States has taken a leadership role in overseeing and managing the global world order that emerged from the ashes of the Second World War, a job for which Freeland made a point of thanking the well-heeled, baby-boomer audience. “That was an era of clear American leadership,’’ Freeland said.

“Our reflection in Canada... is that we observe that Americans — and I’m talking also about regular people, the people who vote — are starting to say, ‘You know what, maybe that mantle of leadership is too heavy for us; maybe we’re not so ready to keep on doing it.’’’ Much of that anxiety and insecurity stems from lingering doubt about the future, in particular how technology is hollowing out the traditional job market and leaving an increasing number of people in the Western world on the outside looking in, Trudeau added. “As leaders we have to make a decision: do we see those fears and choose to amplify them for short-term gains, or do we say, ‘We can solve this if we work together,’’’ he said. “That choice between choosing to augment insecurities and amplify them, versus saying, ‘We got this together,’ is one of the starkest contrasts we can see in political discourse today.’’ Just two hours later, Exhibit A strolled to the rostrum in the main UN assembly hall and gave his unique brand of leadership a rousing endorsement, evoking laughter at one point from the normally staid gathering of dignitaries and heads of state. Before long, the president was repeating a familiar message about his efforts to renegotiate “broken’’ and “terrible’’ deals.
Calgary mayor seeks person who leaked details of meeting CANADIAN PRESS
CALGARY — Mayor Naheed Nenshi says he will ask the city’s integrity commissioner to investigate a leak of details from a closed-door council meeting on costs connected to the potential hosting of the 2026 Winter Olympics. The possible relocation of Calgary Transit’s Victoria Park bus garage was recently discussed incamera, but information from that meeting later surfaced in media reports. The relocation may be done to accommodate plans for an athletes village, should Calgary pursue a bid to host the Games. Nenshi said councillors dealt with sensitive data regarding a negotiating strategy for Olympic funding with the provincial and federal governments. He said the problem with information leaked without context is that it appears council is hiding something, as opposed to being part of a greater conversation. The integrity commissioner will be asked to review all emails and text messages sent from the personal and city-owned phones of council members.

He was headed there Tuesday night after being held temporarily at a county jail, where he was sent immediately after being sentenced to three to 10 years in prison for sexually assaulting a woman at his home in 2004. Correction officials will assess his needs and safety issues to determine where it will be best for the 81-year-old Cosby, who is legally blind, to complete his sentence, prosecutors said. District Attorney Kevin Steele said that could be SCI Laurel Highlands, a state prison housing lower-risk inmates on the other side of the state, about 110 kilometres southeast of Pittsburgh. SCI Laurel Highlands is the state Correction Department’s provider to inmates with special needs, including those requiring long-term care, though it also houses a general prison population, according to its website.

Pope: sex scandals harming church
TALLINN, Estonia — Pope Francis acknowledged Tuesday that priestly sex abuse scandals are outraging the Catholic faithful and driving them away, and said the church must change its ways if it wants to keep future generations. Francis referred directly to the crisis convulsing his papacy on the fourth and final day of his Baltic pilgrimage, which coincided with the release of a devastating new report into decades of sex abuse and coverups in Germany. Francis told young people in Estonia, considered one of the least religious countries in the world, that he knew many young people felt the church had nothing to offer them and simply doesn’t understand their problems today. “They are outraged by sexual and economic scandals that do not meet with clear condemnation, by our unpreparedness to really appreciate the lives and sensibilities of the young, and simply by the passive role we assign them,’’ he told Catholic, Lutheran and Orthodox young people in the Kaarli Lutheran Church in the Estonian capital of Tallinn. The pope said the Catholic Church wants to respond to those complaints transparently and honestly.
Trump lashes out at Iran in UN speech
NEW YORK — President Donald Trump and his top national security aides lashed out at Iran with unusual venom Tuesday, warning Tehran that it faced severe consequences if it defied the United States. Speeches by the president before the U.N. General Assembly and by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and national security adviser John Bolton at a New York City hotel marked an escalation of rhetoric. Trump blasted what he called Iran’s “corrupt dictatorship’’ and accused its leaders of enriching themselves through embezzlement and raiding state coffers to spread “mayhem.’’ Bolton, speaking to an organization that opposed the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran, from which the administration withdrew in May, warned that there would be “hell to pay’’ if Tehran crossed the U.S., its allies or their partners. Trump also vowed to continue to isolate Iran through U.S. sanctions that are being re-instated following his withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal.

ALLEN DOUGLAS/KTW Despite overcast conditions, about 150 people turned out for the Kamloops Kidney Walk on Sunday. The annual event, one of 15 similar walks in B.C., serves as a fundraiser for the Kidney Foundation. Organizers entered the 2018 Kamloops walk with a goal of raising $20,000 and say that tally has been surpassed.
More than $20,000 raised at local Kidney Walk KAMLOOPS THIS WEEK
Organizers wasted little time in declaring Sunday’s Kamloops Kidney Walk a success. While final numbers are still being tallied, Edna Humphreys, the chair of the organizing committee, said the pre-walk goal of
$20,000 had been surpassed. “I am so grateful to have been part of all that positive energy,” she said. “I am also so grateful that the weather co-operated.” Approximately 150 walkers turned out at McDonald Park for the annual event, one of 15 such fundraising Kidney Walks taking
place in B.C. on Sunday. Walkers went for a stroll on a 2.5-kilometre route along the Rivers Trail. Others supported and cheered them on. Those in attendance also took part in celebrating the fifth anniversary of Dorothy Drinnan’s kidney transplant. After being

Aurora Cannabis ‘more than ready’ with supply CANADIAN PRESS
EDMONTON — Licensed marijuana producer Aurora Cannabis Inc. says it is “more than ready’’ for the legalization of recreational pot next month, with enough supply to meet all its commitments to provinces and territories. Aurora’s chief corporate officer

ALLEN DOUGLAS/KTW Brodi Stuart rushes to thank linemate Orrin Centazzo for setting him up to score against the Kelowna Rockets on Friday at Sandman Centre. Kamloops won 4-1 and followed with a 3-1 victory on Saturday in the Little Apple.
BLAZERS LAUNCH SEASON, GROUND ROCKETS
S
erge Lajoie earned his first win as a WHL head coach in the Kamloops Blazers’ home opener in front of a sellout crowd of 5,583 at Sandman Centre on Friday. Kamloops tallied three first-period goals and coasted to a 4-1 victory over the Kelowna Rockets, who lost many of their best players from last season to graduation or pro hockey and look poised for a rebuilding season. The Blazers knocked off the Rockets 3-1 at Prospera Place on Saturday, giving Lajoie his first road victory. “It’s better to start 2-0 than 0-2,” said Lajoie, sitting on a bus full of jovial hockey players while speaking to KTW late Saturday night. “The bigger picture right now is two wins kind of establishes a little bit and maybe heightens the trust between coaches and players.” Dylan Ferguson backstopped the Blazers and was named WHL goaltender of the week on Monday after posting a .970 save percentage and turning aside 64
shots combined in the weekend games. Here are a few of KTW’s takeaways from the Blazers’ hot start: A FAMILY SURPRISE Debuts don’t get much sweeter than a win over a division rival, but the pot was sweetened for Blazers’ rookie head coach Lajoie on Friday. His wife, Kelly, and children — Marc, 15, and Isabelle, 17 — made the trip to Kamloops from St. Albert, Alta., to mark the occasion, showing up unannounced for a game-day surprise. “Up until last night, I was texting with my daughter and my son and they made me believe they were both getting ready for bed and they were going to get up to go to school this morning,” Lajoie said. “It’s nice to be able to share this with them. I’m not here if it isn’t for them. I don’t lose sight of that.” Players marked the victory by giving Lajoie the game puck in the dressing room after the contest. CHEMISTRY FOUND Lajoie’s blueprint for his forward group centres around finding pairs with
chemistry to anchor lines. He identified centre Orrin Centazzo and winger Brodi Stuart, both 18, early in training camp and they enjoyed a sublime start to the regular season. Centazzo, acquired in a blockbuster deadline deal with the Everett Silvertips last season, had three assists, two of them on Stuart goals, on Friday and added a goal on Saturday. He leads the Blazers in scoring with four points. Stuart added an assist on Friday in a three-point night. Centazzo on two occasions made unselfish plays to set up goals, forgoing shot opportunities to feed teammates in better positions. Stuart benefitted once, accepting a slick pass in front of the net before beating Porter, and Centazzo, a left shot, also set up Zane Franklin, realizing the rightshot forward had a better shooting lane. Don’t expect to see much change with forward pairings early in the season. Connor Zary and Luc Smith, who played with Jermaine Loewen on the second line; Franklin and Kobe Mohr, who toiled with rookie centre Josh Pillar on the third line; and Ryley Appelt and
CLEAROUT EVENT
Carson Denomie, who teamed with rookie Kyrell Sopotyk on the fourth line, did nothing to deter Lajoie’s belief in their potential. And Lajoie made it clear he doesn’t like the term fourth line for the DenomieAppelt-Sopotyk unit. “They’re an energy line, they’re character guys and they can move up and down your lineup,” Lajoie said. “I hate calling them a fourth line. They’re a tough line to play against.” The Blazers’ bench boss went with the same starting lineup on Saturday, which included defence pairings Luke Zazula and Quinn Schmiemann; Jonas Sillanpaa and Nolan Kneen, and Sean Strange and Montana Onyebuchi. ZANY START Franklin was named the game’s first star (Stuart was second, Centazzo third), deserving of the honour after an outstanding Blazers’ debut on Friday. The 19-year-old forward from Marwayne, Alta., was one unshed pair of mitts away from a Gordie Howe hat-trick. See LAJOIE, A23

No longer do the Kamloops Storm have a zero in the win column. The Storm edged the 100 Mile House Wranglers 5-4 in Kootenay International Junior Hockey League play on Sunday at Memorial Arena. Brayden Davis, Jaxon Kjenstad, Chris Thon, Lincoln Connor and Jacob Vautour had goals for Kamloops. Ethan Paulin-Hatch stopped 30 shots and posted the victory between the pipes. Kamloops, which was thumped 7-2 by Beaver Valley on Friday at Memorial, has one win, four losses and one default loss on the campaign. The Sicamous Eagles (1-3-1-1) will be in Kamloops to play the local junior B club on Friday and the Spokane Braves (2-2-0-2) will square off against the hometown Storm on Saturday. Game time is 7 p.m. both nights.

that came with a $10,000 team fine and oneyear suspension for Dewar. Two charges were levied to the Storm in July after BC Hockey determined Dewar was involved in improperly attempting to recruit two players who were carded with the Chase Heat. “It’s a bogus charge,” Dewar said. “Do I believe any of it? No. Am I worried about it? Obviously. What they did is give us the maximum they can give under every single
portion of the rule.” The charges also came with a 20-game suspension for the Storm’s head coach. BC Hockey and the KIJHL are expected to inquire about the Storm’s ownership situation during the conference on Wednesday. “That’s the messiest part,” KIJHL president Larry Martel said. “It’s not the tampering. It’s the ownership. Who is the actual ownership? You never get a straight answer.”
The Kamloops Interior Dragons’ women’s dragon boat team won gold at the BC 55-Plus Games, which were held in Kimberley and Cranbrook earlier this month.

James Fraser bagged a hat-trick for the TRU WolfPack in a 4-0 victory over Mount Royal of Calgary at Hillside Stadium, much-needed goals for a Canada West side that has struggled offensively early in the campaign. TRU, which was blanked 1-0 by the Alberta Golden Bears of Edmonton at Hillside on Friday, improved its record to two wins, four losses and two ties with the victory on Saturday. “We have not had much luck scoring goals,” WolfPack head coach John Antulov told TRU sports information. “We have been playing solid, very well defensively, but we have not had the bounces going our way until today.” Jason Staiger also scored for TRU against Alberta in support of goalkeeper Jackson Gardner, who earned his first clean sheet in Canada West play.
TRU will play a pair of road matches on the Coast this weekend — against Trinity Western (3-1-4) in Langley on Friday and Fraser Valley (4-2-1) in Abbotsford on Saturday. Meanwhile, the WolfPack soccer women will play two home matches this weekend, looking to find life after a poor start to 2018. The WolfPack will play host to Trinity on Saturday and Fraser Valley on Sunday. Match time is 1 p.m. both days. TRU (1-5-0) suffered two road defeats on the weekend, falling 3-0 to UBC (5-2-0) in Vancouver on Saturday and 3-0 to Victoria (4-3-0) on Vancouver Island on Friday. “We did have a good weekend despite the results,” Shantz said in a TRU press release. “Some pretty positive improvements in our work ethic. Our effort and shape were improved. We are still a pretty young team and inexperienced out there.”
Garand sticks with Blazers MARTY HASTINGS

The two Dylans have the net. Goaltenders Rayce Ramsay, 17, and Max Palaga, 18, were released from the Kamloops Blazers’ active roster on Monday and acquired by junior A teams, ending a competition for the No. 2 job on Mark Recchi Way. Dylan Garand, 16, will back up Dylan Ferguson, the 20-yearold Vegas Golden Knights prospect. Palaga, from Kamloops, will join the Vernon Vipers of the B.C. Hockey League and Ramsay, from Saskatoon, will play for the Humboldt Broncos of the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League.
DYLAN GARAND “For Max, it’s important that he’s playing, especially at his age,” Blazers’ general manager Matt Bardsley said. “We wanted to make sure he was in a good spot. I know Vernon does a good job.” “For Rayce, he had an excellent training camp, exhibition as well. We still have their rights. They can come up at any time should there be a need, whether it’s injury or illness or anything like that.” Garand, from Victoria, was the only WHL-drafted goalie
pushing for the Blazers’ No. 2 job, selected by former Kamloops GM Stu MacGregor in Round 3 of the 2017 bantam draft. “He’s been excellent,” Bardsley said of Garand, who earned an invite to Hockey Canada’s under-17 development camp in Calgary in June. “It certainly wasn’t an easy decision. They all proved that they can play in the league.” While Ferguson was away last November on a whirlwind tour of the NHL, Garand, then 15, was twice called up to the Blazers and played in three games, finishing with a .877 save percentage. There are 24 players on the Blazers’ roster, including two goaltenders, eight defencemen and 14 forwards.

We’ll see how it goes.” The tilt did not materialize the next night. “He embodies how we need to play and what Blazer hockey should be,” Lajoie said of Franklin, who was acquired from Lethbridge in a summer swap. “He’s a guy that loves to come to the rink. He’s not afraid of hard work. He’s not afraid to stick up for his teammates. He’s a real likeable guy.” Franklin scored again on Saturday.
SIN-BIN SILLINESS Lajoie seemed miffed with penalties taken by players who were retaliating or sticking up for teammates who could have done without the help. He referenced a penalty taken on Friday by Zary, who stands six feet tall and weighs 175 pounds. Zary, who turned 17 on Tuesday, became involved in a scrum while backing up teammate Jermaine Loewen, a 20-year-old forward who stands 6-foot-4 and weighs 227 pounds. “Can’t live with those penalties,” Lajoie said of Zary’s thirdperiod roughing minor. “That’s part of the maturity we’re going to have to demonstrate here moving forward. You talk about toughness. Mental toughness is being able to turn the other cheek.”
THE EUROS Kamloops picked two Europeans in the CHL Import Draft this summer — a 6-foot-6, rangy defenceman, Jonas Sillanpaa, and Martin Lang, a forward from the Czech Republic who is expected to score goals. Sillanpaa looked well ahead of Lang in the transition to the North American game. He showed he is not afraid to use his large frame and inserted himself into confrontation. He also displayed soft hands on several
occasions, including on one rush in the first period that nearly resulted in a Blazers’ goal. Lang was largely unnoticeable on Friday. “Our expectation is that you’re in every battle,” said Lajoie, who said Lang should see himself as a pure shooter. I still catch him [Lang] being a more defensive style of player. I want him to be aggressive.” O FROM D Zazula, an 18-yearold defenceman, was spotted within spitting distance of the offensive-zone crease a few times on Friday. Expect to see more of that. Lajoie has encouraged his defence corps to be aggressive. He doesn’t want defencemen to lead the rush, but he sure as heck wants them to join it. “We want to attack in groups of five,” Lajoie said. “We want to forecheck in groups of five, defend in groups of five. We want to play fast and that means the defence has to be engaged.” Strange was the only Blazers’ D-man to score a goal against the Rockets on Friday, but the pairing of Zazula and 16-year-old Quinn Schmiemann was the most dynamic defensive unit. Kneen, Onyebuchi and Zazula had assists
BEAMING BRASS Kamloops ownership and management had reason to celebrate after the home-opener triumph. New loge seating (sold out for the season) and arena lighting boost the Sandman Centre atmosphere. The Blazers, who sold out only one game last season, filled the barn on opening night and fans witnessed an improved on-ice product. That bodes well for future gates. They also saw something that did not happen last season — a victory over Kelowna. The Rockets were

8-0 against the Blazers in 2017-2018.
DON’T CROWN THEM Fans buzzing about the Blazers — go ahead and buzz. Enjoy well-earned victories and renewed excitement. You should. You’ve earned it after what you’ve been through. But don’t start eyeing a spot (in the newly rearranged Sandman Centre rafters) for a 2019 B.C. Division banner just yet. Kelowna lost its top four scorers — Dillon Dube, Carsen Twarynski, Cal Foote and Kole Lind — and two of its best defencemen, Gordie Ballhorn and James Hilsendager, to either pro hockey or graduation after last season. The roster turnover has left head coach Jason Smith with a much younger team and plenty of teaching to do. Lajoie and the Blazers will head to Victoria next weekend for a pair of games against the Royals, who opened the campaign with two home victories — a 2-1 shootout triumph over Prince George on Friday and a 5-1 thumping of the Cougars on Saturday. If the Blazers are 4-0 after their excursion to the provincial capital, that buzzing might become more audible across the league. The Vancouver Giants are also 2-0, having posted 3-1 victories in back-to-back games against the Silvertips, in Langley on Friday and Everett on Saturday.

Darcy Anthony Robinson May 3, 1981 – September 27, 2007
If tears could build a stairway And memories were a lane We would walk right up to Heaven And bring you home again.

Our hearts still ache in sadness And secret tears still flow What it meant to lose you No one will ever know.

Deborah Chiyoko Studer (née Nagai) passed away in the early morning of September 17, 2018 surrounded by her loved ones. Deb had a profound impact on countless people in her lifetime and in the days leading to her death, the hospice house where she stayed was flooded with visitors who wanted to see her one last time – it was a testament to who she was. Deb battled through many years with health challenges including lupus, kidney failure, kidney transplant and eventually lung cancer. Despite those challenges, most who met her were surprised to learn that she was sick because of her energy and the passion for life that she exhibited. She simply refused to be defined by the challenges she faced in life. Deb was only fifty-six years old but most would be lucky to distill as much as she did out of life. She was a daughter, sister, wife, mother, aunt, “Bachee”, friend, nurse and survivor. She is survived by her husband Gregg Studer, her two adult children James (Karman) Studer and Jordi (Tanner) LeBourdais (née Studer) and their children Quinn and Claire, as well as her four adult nephews Rob (Heather) and son Rory Nagai, Theo (Michelle) and three children Madeline, Alex, and William Nagai and twins Tim Nagai and Jeremy (Lisa) and son Lawrence Nagai. Born on Christmas day, Deb was a truly special person. She was raised in Kamloops where she met many of her lifelong friends, including those that would help care for her in hospice. In high school she met her husband Gregg. Deb and Gregg married in 1981. They were

Funeral Director
I have been happily living in Kamloops since 1991. In 1992 I began working as a funeral director and joined Schoening Funeral Service in August 2000. I am honoured to be of assistance to so many families in their time of need. In my spare time I am involved with the Kamloops Blazer Hockey Booster club. I also hold the position of Treasurer of our Kamloops HOG Chapter.

fortunate to have their son James in 1983 and were again blessed with their daughter Jordi in 1986. Deb and Gregg raised their kids with love and adoration from the time they were born and continued into adulthood. They sacrificed everything they had to ensure the best for their kids. Their home was a welcomed community centre for all of James and Jordi’s friends throughout the years. They spoke into many children’s lives and their house carried an indescribable warmth that attracted all. Deb obtained her Bachelor’s Degree of Science in Nursing while raising her two children and then earned her Master’s Degree from UBC while doing dialysis, being treated for kidney failure and continuing to work full time. Since 2001, Deb worked as a Registered Nurse working at various wards and clinics. Her infectious spirt touched everyone around her. She was known to patients and colleagues for her positive outlook, kind heart, and her ability to always know the right thing to say. Ironically, Deb spent the majority of her nursing career at the Cancer Clinic at Royal Inland Hospital where she will be missed greatly. Deb was a devout Christian and regularly attended church at Full Gospel, Southwest Baptist and The Calvary Temple. She spent many hours volunteering in the church kitchen with husband Gregg, her mother Kimi and auntie Tomi. They made planning and orchestrating meals look “easy” even when feeding hundreds of people despite having no formal catering experience. Deb and Gregg built a great community with the people from the churches they attended. In her spare time, Deb would usually be found outdoors hiking with her “grand-dog” Jack and any one of her many friends who often joined her. Deb found peace in the outdoors and loved

She was incredibly happy to become a grandmother but she also was an influential presence for many of her friends’ children. She embraced all children with open arms and spoke wonders into all. Children from all ages loved her. Deb truly was a big kid at heart. Throughout her lifetime, she could be found hiding under blankets, playing on the playground and especially in the last year, tucked in the McDonald’s play place with her grandchildren. After Deb’s lung cancer diagnoses and treatment, she battled hard but preferred spending time with her two grand-babies Quinn and Claire. Everyone close to her knew her true and genuine love for these girls. Her only regret was that she would not see them grow up. Deb was a beacon of light to all those who were fortunate to know her. She embraced everyone she met and always treated people with respect and kindness. She lived her life in a way that celebrated everyone else before herself; she epitomized generosity and self-sacrifice. Despite her health challenges, Deb lived a full life. She was a pillar of strength to everyone around her. There will be a service held in honour of Deb on Saturday, October 13, 2018 at 3:00 pm at The Calvary Church. If you knew Deb, you are welcome to attend. She would want those who knew her to remember the happy times and to celebrate a life well lived. In honour of Deb, please feel free to wear something colourful to the service.

OBITUARIES & IN MEMORIAM Umberto Domenic Castagna It is with heavy hearts we announce that Umberto Domenic Castagna of Kamloops, British Columbia passed away peacefully at Royal Inland Hospital after a long courageous battle with cancer, his family by his side, the morning of Sunday, September 23, 2018.
RO OO OF F
Umberto was born on April 8, 1938 in Albi Catanzaro, Italy. Umberto and Carmela with their two-year-old son Aldo in 1967 decided to create a better life for themselves by moving to Canada. With very few possessions and no knowledge of the English language, they risked everything, travelling for many weeks across the Atlantic by boat and several days more from Eastern Canada by train to arrive in Kamloops. Umberto with a sponsorship by his brother-in-law, was able to gain employment at Balco Industries where he spent 35 years of hard work and dedication; retiring happily in 2002. After retirement, he was able to enjoy spending time with his four grandchildren of which he loved dearly. Being a long-standing member of the Columbo Lodge, he contributed in countless ways but with his charm, sense of humour and ability to relate to a wide variety of people, his favourite role was that of bartender. His hobbies included gardening and landscaping for which he took immense pride in. He also enjoyed making his own wine and sausage; often times gleefully accepting assistance from his grandchildren who were always excited and willing to help their beloved Nonnu.

A Vanished Friend by Anders Lim
Around the corner I have a friend In this great city that has no end; Yet days go by, and weeks rush on, And before I know it a year has gone, And I never see my old friend’s face, For life is a swift and terrible race. He knows I like him just as well As in the days when I rang his bell, And he rang mine. We were younger then, And now we are busy, tired men, Tired of playing a foolish game, Tired with trying to make a name. “Tomorrow, I will call on Jim, Just to show that I am thinking of him.” But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes, And the distance between us grows and grows, Around the corner, yet miles away “Here’s a telegram, sir,” “Jim died today!” And that’s what we get, and deserve in the end, Around the corner a vanished friend!

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, when work pressures get to you, it’s best to take a little time off on the weekend to think about anything but work. Immerse yourself in a hobby.
PISCES
- Feb 19/Mar 20 Travel plans may be slightly delayed, but they’re not completely off the table, Pisces. Don’t worry about having to unpack those bags just yet.
