Ice sheets, pool, arts centre identified in draft master rec plan MICHAEL POTESTIO STAFF REPORTER michael@kamloopsthisweek.com

SIBLING CRUSH
Centrifugal force on the Sizzler forces Adam Bob to be crushed by sister Keona. The siblings were enjoying a visit to the West Coast Amusements carnival that set up shop at Aberdeen Mall on the weekend. Fairgoers had fine weather until Sunday, when Mother Nature decided to put a damper on the fun. To see more photos from the annual midway, go online to kamloopsthisweek.com and click on the Community tab.
The City of Kamloops should consider building a performing-arts centre, a new pool facility and a trio of ice rinks in the future. On Tuesday, city council was given an update on its new recreation master plan being drafted by consultant RC Strategies. A non-profit society is working with arts groups and the community to advance the arts centre project, with tasks identified: developing a new business case, communications strategy, enlisting community support through a membership drive, providing input into design of the project and fundraising. Consultant Stephen Slawuta of RC Strategies said the city should continue to explore the viability of an arts centre. “See where it leads and move forward based on the directive of that business case initiative,” he said. An arts centre was identified as a top priority following community input in the draft plan, Slawuta said.
He added that visits to city pools has been increasing over the past four years. While RC found the city does a good job providing most aquatic services, leisure aquatic activities was identified as a gap area. The master plan suggests exploring adding another indoor aquatics facility with leisure activities as the focus and taking a deeper dive into details of such a development such as whether the pool should be a standalone or multi-use facility, costs, impacts on other city pools and a location in an area of the city where this type of service is lacking. When it comes to ice rinks in Kamloops, Slawuta said RC’s investigation into usage suggests their are some challenges. “In this case, your facilities are at or over capacity and that would suggest there is a need to increase the provision of ice,” he said, noting the city will need to invest in upgrading its existing ice rinks over time.

The provincial government has announced a $69 million fund to help British Columbia forest workers impacted by mill closures and shift reductions in several B.C. Interior communities. The Interior forest industry has been reducing production in the wake of the mountain pine beetle harvest and the 2017 and 2018 fire seasons. This year has seen numerous announcements of mill closures and curtailments, including Canfor shutting down its mill in Vavenby, near Clearwater, leaving about 175 people out of work, and Tolko shutting down its Heffley Creek mill in Kamloops for 10 days. Just last week, Tolko announced the indefinite shutdown of its Kelowna sawmill, while the Teal-Jones Group said it was closing its three mills in Surrey, the pair of decisions affecting 600 employees and various people whose professions are connected to the mills. Premier John Horgan and Forests Minister Doug Donaldson met with the chief executive officers of the major Interior forest companies to explain the measures to be taken in the months and years ahead. They include $40 million to establish a new cost-shared, early-retirement bridging program for older forest workers, $15 million to establish a new short-term forest employment program, focused on fire-prevention and community-resiliency projects, $12 million for workers to access skills training and for employer and community grants for training and $2 million to establish a new job place-

ment co-ordination office that will track the transition and employment of impacted forest workers on an individual basis. In addition, community support grants will be aimed at providing short-term assistance to communities more profoundly impacted by the closure of a major forest employer. As many as 3,000 mill workers have lost work during this summer’s production cutbacks, Donaldson said, including as many as 700 permanently with the permanent closure of four mills. “The announcement you hear today is building on the work of the community transition teams,” that have been on the ground in affected communities since May, Donaldson said. While government has been taking heat from the opposition for the length of time it has taken to come up with a package, Donaldson argued that those transition teams have been taking feedback on what communities needed “making sure we got it right.” “The province is committed to supporting the people impacted by this change, but we need the forest industry and the federal government to step up and do their part as well,” Donaldson said. “I’m hopeful that the Interior forest sector recognizes that the new industry that will arise from this transition will need skilled, experienced workers to produce new forest products that can compete in global markets.” Donaldson called on the forest industry to increase supports for impacted workers, ensure key corporate leaders are working on the industry transition and ensure that it does

a better job of communicating effectively with affected workers and communities. He also asked that the federal government step in and help those in the forest industry who have lost jobs. West Fraser Timber Co. Ltd. CEO Ray Ferris said the province’s aid package aligns with his company’s efforts to ensure continuing employment as industry and government work on longer-term solutions during its transition. Stephen Hunt, United Steelworkers director for Western Canada, said while the financial aid from Victoria welcome, permanent solutions for those impacted across B.C. are needed. “A jobs protection commissioner would also go a long way to assisting mills, workers and communities facing closures all around the province,” Hunt said. Jeff Bromley, United Steelworkers wood council chair, said significant changes to forest policy is required, arguing there is a need to bring back a social contract tying logs to jobs, which existed prior to the B.C. Liberal government being elected in 2001. Gary Fiege, president of the Public and Private Workers of Canada, said the aid package from the provincial government needs to be followed by more. “We will continue to work to save jobs, but have to be realistic with the situation at hand and help people transition in a changed landscape,” he said. “This funding announced today is just a start in the effort needed to accomplish this transition.”

ALLEN DOUGLAS/KTW FILE Curlers attend a February 2018 BC Winter Games workshop at the Kamloops Curling Centre downtown. The city has the Victoria Street facility and a curling rink on McArthur Island. “At some point, it’s likely something is going to call viability into question,” Consultant Stephen Slawuta said, noting possibilities such as a drop in participation or a major repair of one of the city’s curling facilities. At that point, he said, the city may want to discuss consolidating the two clubs.

Slawuta said RC’s analysis shows bringing the city’s prime time ice usage — evening and weekend hours between September and March — down to 85 per cent from the current 100 per cent would require at least three more sheets. “And 85 per cent prime time utilization is still a very high level of utilization, but we think that is a reasonable target,” he said. The master plan suggests adding one or two new ice rinks in the next three to seven years, and another one or two sheets in seven to 12 years. In the medium term, the plan suggests exploring adding more indoor dry floor field space when considering building any arenas or aquatics facilities, Slawuta said. In the short term, the plan recommends continued engagement with the school district to ensure community access to those facilities.

Slawuta said the city should continue to monitor usage at spirts fields and ball diamonds and focus on quality over quantity of those spaces. On a case-by-case basis, the city should explore its opportunities to make improvements and enhancements to those facilities such as adding washroom, seating and improving playing surfaces. As for the city’s two curling rinks, Slawuta suggested the city continue to support those operations as long as they are viable. “At some point, it’s likely something is going to call viability into question,” Slawuta said, noting possibilities such as a drop in participation or a major repair of one of the city’s curling facilities. If and when this happens, Slawuta said, it would be prudent to discuss consolidating the clubs and retrofit one of the two facilities for a different, dry floor surface sport. The master plan recommends the city more closely monitor
its court spaces to determine if sports like tennis and pickle ball are in high demand and require further study, Slawuta said. Indoor play spaces were also looked at, Slawuta said, noting those spaces should be considered when exploring future development and multi-use facilities. The city should consider ensuring its existing recreational infrastructure is sustained before contemplating new development, Slawuta said. Multi-use spaces should be prioritized along with inclusion and access, he said. Feedback collected on the draft plan will be incorporated into the plan and brought before council for adoption at a later date. The public will have a chance to give its input on Oct. 2 at 7 p.m. at Sports Central Lounge in the McArthur Island Sport and Event Centre and on Oct. 3 at Heritage House in Riverside Park, at 100 Lorne St.

Church missionary from U.S. dies after highway crash One of two U.S. church missionaries critically injured in a crash in Kamloops last Friday has died. Bryant Keck, 19, of Sanford Col., died on Tuesday, Fellow Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints missionary Dallin Thompson of Sahuarita, Ariz., also 19, remained in critical condition in hospital as of press deadline on Tuesday. Church spokesman Daniel Woodruff told KTW said Keck died with his mother by his side. “Our deepest condolences go out to the family and loved ones of Elder Keck as they mourn his passing and honour his life and missionary service,” Woodruff said. “We continue to pray for Elder Thompson and his family, as well as the individuals in the other vehicle. We hope everyone involved in this tragedy will feel the comfort and peace of the Holy Spirit during this difficult time. Kamloops RCMP say a small SUV collided with a pickup truck at the junction of Highway 5 North and Old Highway 5 at about 6 p.m. Keck and Thompson were in the SUV and were rushed to hospital by air ambulance. The two occupants of the pickup truck were unharmed. The two elders were serving on a mission to B.C.

Science centre has a new home BUT THE BOARD WANTS TO FINALIZE LEASE DETAILS WITH LANDLORD BEFORE REVEALING THE ADDRESS
MICHAEL POTESTIO STAFF REPORTER michael@kamloopsthisweek.com
The Big Little Science Centre will soon announce the location of its new home. The centre’s board met on Monday night and has reached an agreement with a landlord to move into a new space. The Sept. 5 fire that destroyed Parkcrest elementary in Brocklehurst has led to a domino effect of student movement to and from various facilities. As a result, the science centre was asked by School District 73 to move out of the Holt Street location it leases so the building can be used to house students from Four Directions alternative school. Four Directions was moved from George Hilliard elementary to accommodate Parkcrest elementary students displaced by a fire that destroyed their school on Sept. 5. Nobody was hurt in the fire, the cause of which remains under investigation, though police have ruled out arson. Parkcrest students began classes in Hilliard on Monday. There have been whispers that the Big Little Science Centre will unveil a downtown location, but executive director Gord Stewart said the board needs to finalize details of the lease before revealing the location of the new home.
He did say the science centre’s new address will be more central and more accessible that its previous home in the former Happyvale elementary on Holt Street in Brocklehurst. The charitable organization’s board of directors met on Monday night to discuss the financial viability of two possible locations, reaching consensus on one. Stewart said the centre should be open in its new space in early November, when a grand opening will be staged. In the interim, the centre’s large volume of science materials will remain in storage. The science centre offers visitors a variety of shows, demonstrations, teaching laboratories and more than 140 hands-on stations to experiment with science. The centre was founded in 2001 by science teacher Gordon Gore. It has had homes in David Thompson elementary, Bert Edwards Science and Technology School, George Hilliard elementary and Happyvale elementary. The centre had leased space from the school district, but because it is not a district program, access is determined by space availability. In its latest newsletter, released this week, science centre staff said it will no longer be housed in schools, due to the uncertainty of space availability.

IT IS UP TO YOU TO DETERMINE ISSUES
T
he federal election on Oct. 21 is an opportunity for Canadian voters to choose which candidates they want to represent them in Ottawa. This is your election. It is our opportunity to choose your government. In the days and weeks leading to the election, Canada’s political parties and numerous special interest groups will be working to set the priorities and determine the issues in this election. Some are presenting platforms. Others are addressing the past performances of leaders or candidates. And some are presenting topics they believe should be at the forefront of voters’ minds on election day. The result is a lot of information for voters. Comparing the options available and selecting the best choice can be a daunting task. But it is not up to parties or special interest groups to determine the priorities or issues. It is up to the voters, as KTW noted earlier this month when we asked a group of people on the street to name top of mind issues. Climate change, crime and tuition costs were some of the issues raised on Victoria Street and Tranquille Road. This is your election. It is a time to identify what is important to you and which candidate is best able to address your concerns, be they national or local. In the end, this 43rd federal election must be about what the voters want and how the candidates and parties will respond to those wishes. If there is a topic of concern to you, discuss it with the candidates and listen to what they have to say. (Two confirmed forums include the Council of Canadians event on Sept. 28 at the Kamloops Regional Farmers’ Market and the Oct. 8 KTW/ Radio NL/Kamloops Chamber of Commerce event at TRU’s Grand Hall.) Also, consider candidates’ party’s past voting record or policy statements. Then cast your vote, based on the factors that are important to you. This is your election. You determine the issues.

Cutting wood waste
A
nother bruising week for B.C.’s forest industry featured the indefinite shutdown of Tolko Industries’ sawmill at Kelowna and the halt of what was left of Vancouver Island and Fraser Valley logging by contractors for Teal-Jones Group, which runs three mills in Surrey. That’s 600 more mill workers either out of a job or soon to be as their log supply runs out, plus contracted loggers and haulers. Add that to Interfor’s permanent closure of the century-old Hammond Cedar sawmill in Maple Ridge and West Fraser’s move to “variable operating schedules” at its sawmills and plywood plants at Williams Lake, Quesnel, 100 Mile House, Chetwynd and Fraser Lake. All this within a 10-day period and all due to the usual mixture of low lumber prices, high log costs, diminished log supply and U.S. trade sanctions. Teal-Jones added two more factors in its second decision this past summer to lay off loggers: “Current high stumpage rates remain high relative to lumber prices and harvesting costs have been adversely impacted by new regulations to bring out more residual waste fibre.” Stumpage, the province’s Crown timber fee, is adjusted quarterly and hasn’t kept up with plummeting lumber prices this year. The NDP has cracked down on residual waste, charging triple stumpage on any wood
TOM FLETCHER Our Man In
VICTORIA left behind that is deemed to be economically usable. Forests Minister Doug Donaldson said the residual wood program is just getting going, defining economic hauling zones and may need some adjustments. But industry should get used to it. The days of huge slash piles left behind after the sawlogs are trucked out are coming to an end — and not just on the B.C. coast. “I’m expecting we’re going to hear about this in the Interior renewal process that we’re undertaking as well,” Donaldson told me. “Wood left in slash piles that could be used for other purposes is consistent. The key is ensuring that those policy changes are applied where there is an economic analysis that it’s economical to bring that wood out.” B.C. Liberal forests critic John Rustad said the new residual rules pile on harvesting costs at the worst possible time, arguing it’s backfiring.
Instead of getting extra residual wood, pulp mills are grinding more logs to keep going, he said. Traditionally, residual fibre is collected by a second logging crew, mainly for pulp. Nowadays, we also have pellet manufacturers feeding power plants in Europe and value-added producers making everything from log homes to windows to doors to siding and other specialty products. Donaldson wants all usable wood taken out on the “first pass” of logging. Donaldson made his first visit to the Global Buyers Mission event in Whistler last week. It’s the 16th annual trade show held by B.C. Wood, the value-added manufacturers group. Held in the ski resort that symbolizes B.C. wood construction worldwide, it had 270 industry representatives hosting buyers from 20 countries, including Australia, Mexico, the U.K., the U.S., India, Japan and China. B.C. Wood’s tracking system reports $38 million in sales from the Global Buyers Mission last year, Donaldson said. And some specialty products are made from residual wood that doesn’t fit the traditional measure of eight-foot construction lumber. “It aligns well with what we’re focused on as the direction for the forest sector in the future, maximizing value rather than just maximizing volume,” he said. “That’s the way we’ve got to go.” tfletcher@blackpress.ca

OPINION LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
CITY NEEDS TO OFFER STATEMENT Editor: After having been assured in recent emails from several councillors that the City of Kamloops is an enthusiastic supporter of reconciliation with First Nations, I wish to point out a city action that is a glaring inconsistency with this position and ask council to act to correct this. Mayor Ken Christian went on the public record this June in support of the beginning of construction of the proposed Trans Mountain Pipeline expansion project, but this is a highly questionable and somewhat inflammatory position in light of legal challenges by First Nations that have yet to be resolved. The current situation, with the imminent beginning of construction now already set for the pipeline expansion, is a patently unfair travesty of justice in that substantial and credible legal appeals from six First Nations — not the least of which being the Stk’emlupsemc te Secwepemc of the Secwepemc Nation — have been recently approved, but not yet heard, by the Federal Court of Appeal. Instead of promoting the shameful colonial steamroller mentality of the pipeline owner — the federal government — the City of Kamloops could instead take the opportunity to provide positive leadership in bringing a spirit of reconciliation to this unhappy situation. Council could initiate a new public stance, stating the city will not agree to the beginning of pipeline expansion construction activities within the Kamloops jurisdiction until such time as the outstanding First Nations major legal challenges are fully resolved. I would respectfully suggest such a formal statement, if conveyed to appropriate federal and provincial officials, First Nations and the Trans Mountain Corporation, has the potential to have a large and positive impact all around. Plus, it is the right thing to do. John McNamer Kamloops
FILM SOCIETY MADE RIGHT DECISION Editor: Contrary to Martha Solomon’s letter to the editor of Sept. 11 (‘Screening film is a bad plan’), the Kamloops Film Society should be applauded for its decision to show the Unplanned movie at the Paramount Theatre from Sept. 27 to Sept. 29. Abortion is a controversial topic with more sides and angles than a brilliant-cut diamond. Debate should be encouraged, not stifled. The worst kind of censorship is self-censorship for fear someone might take offence. Logically, such fear would limit the film society to screening Teletubbies and test patterns. How long would that business model last? Unplanned is the story of one American woman’s journey from pro-abortion to anti-abortion. Change-of-heart or changeof-mind stories are inherently interesting.
It beggars belief that one person’s change of mind could harm or undermine anyone’s rights. Rights are not feelings, nor are they fragile. Solomon frames abortion as a matter of bodily autonomy, but surely that sidesteps the one essential difference between an abortion and any other invasive medical procedure. Most surgeries are meant to restore or extend human life. Abortions intend the opposite. There is no getting around it — a successful abortion ends a human life, whether in its embryonic or fetal stage. This difference gives rise to a host of questions and moral quandaries to which there are only difficult answers. The debate goes on because the agony goes on and the pain never really goes away. Abortion in America has a legal, medical, political and cultural context that dif-
fers from Canada’s. This film would bring these differences to light. Might we not learn something from another culture? Solomon implies women, trans and non-binary people are of one mind and voice with respect to abortion. There is no evidence to support this. After all, they are individual human beings, not The Borg from Star Trek. I’ve heard that this film has been met by protests at some venues and has even been withdrawn from screening, not on artistic grounds, but for its point of view. What a sad commentary on the state of debate in Canada. Let the Kamloops Film Society board know you support their decision to show this film, whether you intend to see it or not. And, if you like its premise, then buy a ticket. James Britton Kamloops
LIKE VAXXED, UNPLANNED FULL OF FALSE CLAIMS Editor: The fact of the matter is, Unplanned contains medically inaccurate information. The fetus is not developed enough to feel and thrash in pain at 13 weeks. The fetus is not aware at all of what is happening because it does not have that part of the brain to feel pain. If one wishes to promote anti-abortion, or pro-life-related things, one should use facts and not fear-mongering — and this film is fear-mongering.
[web-extra]
Many more letters on the Unplanned controversy can be read online at kamloopsthisweek. com Those who support screening of Unplanned say pro-choice activists are against the right of people to choose by asking the Kamloops Film Society to reject
screening the film. In fact, we are against false information. The goal of those who are pro-choice is not to be “pro-abortion,” but to have abortion be a choice, the same way that condoms and the pill are choices to prevent pregnancy. Providing false information through this film, and via pregnancy care centres, is not providing pregnant or possibly pregnant women all the choices. It provides them with lies. It

is akin to the film Vaxxed, which claims the MMR vaccine causes autism, despite that claim being false, or the film The Other Side of AIDS, which claims HIV does not cause AIDS and that antiHIV medication is harmful. It is not an opposing argument; it’s misinformation. An opposing argument would be to promote adoption, not to claim abortion is murder and causes pain to the fetus. Tia De Marni Kamloops

PART III: 15 THINGS YOUR TEETH CAN SAY ABOUT YOUR HEALTH
Sure, you can tell if your teeth are clean or not. But do you know about the underlying things those chicklets can tell you about underlying health issues? The third group of factors: 12. Dementia If bacteria and other pathogens can navigate from the on-ramp of your gum pockets can travel to your heart, then can certainly travel to all your other body parts very easily too. Research revealing the bacteria from the puffy, bleeding gums of someone with gum disease has been found in the brains of patients afflicted with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. 13. HIV & Hepatitis Due to a weakened immune system, individuals with HIV or AIDS often develop oral thrush, oral warts, fever blisters, canker sores, and hairy leukoplakia, which are white or gray patches on the tongue or the inside of the cheek. What this means is that people are at increased risk for painful tooth loss. 14. Premature birth The direct link between gum disease and premature birth is better understood today from research out of New York. There is a link between all stages of hormonal change in a woman’s life but especially pregnant women with gum disease and babies born too early or too small. If you’re pregnant and have gum disease, it’s imperative to talk to an obstetrician or dentist as soon as possible to mitigate future risks to your unborn child. 15. Complications from smoking & vaping You may have heard all of this before, but it’s worth repeating in today’s era of rampant vaping. Smoking tobacco can cause a “silent type” of gum disease, which leads to all the complications we’ve already discussed. Vaping however is almost worse than smoking as the oral blood vessels actually dilate rather than constrict from nicotine. This allows an increased temperature in the mouth with wider vessels so more bacteria, more bleeding and faster travel to all your other body parts, especially the lungs. The best thing to do is to regularly get your teeth cleaned and checked on a regular basis so any of these complications can be identified before they get out of control.
Charges in Elephant Hill fire? CANADIAN PRESS
The RCMP is recommending criminal charges in connection to the 2017 Elephant Hill wildfire, which destroyed a number of home and razed nearly 2,000 square kilometres of land from Ashcroft and into areas north of the community. The massive fire also led to mass evacuations of communities, with the majority of residents coming to Kamloops to stay in emergency operations centre accommodations. Mounties have forwarded information
RCMP FILE NOW WITH CROWN, WHICH WILL DECIDE IF CRIMINAL CHARGES ARE WARRANTED to the BC Prosecution Service for consideration of charges. RCMP Sgt. Janelle Shoihet said the probe into the Elephant Hill blaze in 2017 was complex and lengthy. She said the prosecution service will make a determination about which, if any, charges may be appropriate. Details of the report examining the cause and origin of the blaze will not be released
while charges are under consideration. BC Wildfire Service data shows the Elephant Hill fire, sparked on July 6, 2017, grew to be the largest wildfire in the province that year. A report from the Thompson-Nicola Regional District stated the fire destroyed 228 structures, including dozens of homes in the communities of Boston Flats, Loon Lake and Pressy Lake.

Lightning did not leave mark on goat MICHAEL POTESTIO STAFF REPORTER michael@kamloopsthisweek.com
An orphaned mountain goat believed to have been struck by lightning earlier this month was found dead in his pen at the BC Wildlife Park without a scratch on him. Following a Sept. 3 thunderstorm, the wildlife park reported that Gustav, the young mountain goat that came to the park’s rehabilitation centre in 2018, had died. Animal care manager Tracy Reynolds said she was driving around the park the day after the storm, conducting morning checks on the animals, when she noticed Gustav lying motionless up against the wire fence of his enclosure. Reynolds said she was in disbelief, noting it was immediately apparent Gustav was dead.
“What was shocking was he had no marks on him whatsoever,” she said. That night, a veterinarian performed a necropsy, which indicated Gustav was electrocuted, creating internal lesions and a hole through his heart. Reynolds said the vet is nearly 100 per cent certain in the cause of death. She said the necropsy didn’t find any other health issues. “He was a healthy, juvenile mountain goat,” she said of the 18-month-old animal. Reynolds suspects Gustav wasn’t the main point of contact, theorizing he was likely leaning up against the fence when the lightning struck it or an adjacent tree, transferring the electricity into his body. “The fence itself is a good conductor,” she said, noting it is made of cage wire with wood posts.

Reynolds said she had a special relationship with Gustav as she took care of him 24 hours a day when he first arrived in the park, having been rescued in the Kootenays as an orphaned kid. “He still saw me as like his mom,” she said. According to Environment Canada lightning caused deaths can occur in multiple ways, such as via ground currents, side flashes and conduction.

There are also ground currents, side flashes, being in contact with an object struck by lightning, upward leaders or streamers and shock waves.

A day care and a preschool being displaced as School District 73 shuffles students in the wake of the Sept. 5 Parkcrest elementary fire have found a new combined home. Lil Scholars Preschool, Happy Honeybees child care and the Big Little Science Centre must move out of the former Happyvale elementary, at 655 Holt St. in Brocklehurst, to make way for students from the Four Directions Aboriginal alternative program. The Four Directions students, now at George Hilliard elementary at 985 Holt St., must move to make room for the teachers and 360 students of Parkcrest, who moved into Hilliard on Monday. Students of the Twin Rivers Education Centre alternative school, also at Hilliard, have moved to John Tod Centre and NorKam senior secondary. The day care and pre-school will be moving into three rooms located in Kamloops Christian School at 750 Cottonwood Ave. in North Kamloops, which is 2.5 kilometres from Happyvale. But the owners of the two programs — Jessica Keith of Happy Honeybees and Courtney Greenman of Lil Scholars — must cram a plethora of paperwork, renovations and the move itself into a two-week window in order to move in on Oct. 1 as planned. Time is of the essence as, Greenman said, SD73 has given them until Oct. 9 at the latest to move out of Happyvale. The owners are hoping for a seamless transition between locations. “I want to go be able to go from Happyvale to the Christian school with no downtime for
the parents having to worry about where their kids are going to go,” Keith said. That’s a concern for parent Mackenzi Chenette, whose threeyear-old son Liam joined the Lil Scholars pre-school program this month. Chenette, who runs her own business from home, said she wouldn’t be able to work those days if her son didn’t have a place to go. She said child care is difficult to find in Kamloops, noting she faced a two-year waitlist for Liam and is still searching for a spot for two-year-old daughter Paisley, who is being looked after by a friend in the interim. To receive licences to operate at the new location, Keith and Greenman must submit a variety of policies and documents, including floor plans, evacuation procedures and fire drill procedures, to Interior Health. “That’s probably what’s going to be the most time-consuming,” Keith said, noting that IH has indicated it will try to fast-track the process. “We have two weeks and usually this takes a couple of months,” she said. A fire inspection and new business licences from the City of Kamloops are also required. Keith and Greenman also need to remove some temporary walls to meet requirements for sight lines and they plan to paint the rooms and install new flooring. The pair has received support through the process — SD73 put them in contact with Kamloops Christian School and children’s parents have offered to help them move. Moving, however, won’t be an easy feat, Keith said. “We have acquired a lot of materials and toys and books — everything. It’s going to be a
lot to pack up and then we have to unpack and be ready to operate, essentially, over one weekend,” she said. If needed, Keith said, she will put her materials in storage and phase in the move in order to re-open on time. Community members are welcome to help with the move or donate supplies, such as area rugs, lamps or paint. “We’re going to make it work for us and for our families and the kids and we’ll do what we have to in the next couple weeks to get Interior Healthapproved,” Keith said “And then we can hopefully make it a seamless transition.” Lil Scholars Preschool and Happy Honeybees will each lease a room and share the third room as an indoor play space at Kamloops Christian School. While the rent will be similar to what they have been paying at Happyvale, there will be less space. Greenman said each program had its own offices and storage rooms and shared a kitchen with the Big Little Science Centre at Happyvale. “We won’t have any of that at our new location,” she said. It’s not clear if the day cares will ever return to Happyvale as, Greenman noted, the school district informed them enrolment increases may require the district to use the building as a school once Parkcrest is rebuilt. Lil Scholars preschool looks after 16 children ages 30 months to five from 7 a.m. to 5 a.m. daily. Happy Honeybees serves kids ages two to 12 in two separate programs — a three day per week pre-school program for 17 children and an after-school program of about 20 students, the majority of whom attend Parkcrest.

Incumbent MP McLeod has a list of unfinished business she aims to tackle JESSICA WALLACE STAFF REPORTER jessica@kamloopsthisweek.com
Asked why she is seeking a fourth term as Kamloops-Thompson-Cariboo MP, Conservative candidate Cathy McLeod cites unfinished local initiatives and concerns about the direction of the country under Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government. McLeod wants the Trans Mountain Pipeline expansion project completed and an agricultural research centre in Brocklehurst — shuttered under Stephen Harper’s Conservative government — reopened. She also wants a new softwood lumber agreement in place to aid the forestry sector. As for poking at the party in power, the Official Opposition MP said she is concerned about its performance and wants to uphold conservative values and principals going forward. “Mostly, it’s a job I love, helping individual

constituents, working with businesses and some of the challenges they have, working with communities,” McLeod said. “I believe I’ve been effective and would certainly be honoured to continue.” McLeod has been local MP since first being elected in 2008 and, since being re-elected in 2015, has been Indigenous Affairs critic. Looking back, the nurse-turned-Pembertonmayor-turned-MP pointed to nearly a half-billion federal dollars invested in the riding during her tenure. McLeod is proud of small projects, such as a splash park in Clearwater, and larger ones, including the four-laning of Highway 1 between Pritchard and Hoffman’s Bluff. The $61-million project was completed in 2016, with half of the cost funded by Ottawa. “I worked [as a nurse] in the Chase Health Centre when there was significant tragedy on the roads,” she said, calling the project a priority. “I
would be called into emergency to help because of some of the tragedies right at Hoffman’s Bluff.” Is being the incumbent in an election an advantage or disadvantage? McLeod said incumbents benefit from name recognition, but she hopes voters will choose her on election day because of her reputation and performance. She said affordability is paramount among issues in this election campaign. “The principle of you’re the best person to run your life, manage your money,” McLeod said. “Your money is better sitting in your pocket than with government. Obviously, government has roles to play. Let’s keep it reasonable. “That’s certainly a priority and I think it’s a big issue I’m hearing from seniors, I’m hearing from students, people who make a reasonable income — but, they do struggle.”

Online foe of NDP candidate: party overreacted MICHAEL POTESTIO
STAFF REPORTER
michael@kamloopsthisweek.com
A energy-sector journalist who was subject to comments that led the federal NDP to oust Kamloops-ThompsonCariboo candidate Dock Currie thinks the party overreacted. Markam Hislop told KTW he and fellow journalist Max Fawcett were engaged in a Facebook debate with Currie about the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion when Currie sent them direct messages threatening violence. “It was such a typical social media exchange that you wouldn’t even raise an eyebrow,” Hislop said of the online debate of two years ago, Hislop said Currie took exception to their comments, which were supportive of the pipeline, and said Currie told them something to the effect that he would like the break Fawcett’s jaw and beat up Hislop if he saw them. The incident was long forgotten until Fawcett shared a story on Twitter about Currie being named the NDP’s candidate in KamloopsThompson-Cariboo. Fawcett’s post has the caption: “If anyone needs some fun oppo
Federal Election Oct. 21, 2019 on the NDP candidate in Kamloops-ThompsonCariboo, I might be able to help.” Hislop replied to the post, stating, “Should I dig up that DM from a few years back when he physically threatened me? Of all the troll messages over the years, that’s the only one I considered reporting to the RCMP.” Hislop described their comments as “innocent kvetching,” noting Currie’s subsequent resignation was not their intent. Hislop said neither he nor Fawcett sought out the NDP, but suspects someone, possibly another reporter, did when he or she saw their comments. Hislop said he feels the incident was blown out of proportion, noting he is not in a position to judge Currie. “If I went back through my social media account, I couldn’t run
for dog catcher given some of the things I’ve said over the years on Twitter and Facebook,” Hislop said. “I’ve lost my temper, said something intemperate. I mean who hasn’t done that?” Hislop believes Currie should have been given the opportunity to apologize to him and Fawcett and been permitted to remain the candidate. “Are we going to be
holding candidates for public office to that kind of standard where everything they’ve said in public and social media is going to be scrutinized for some little thing?” he asked. “We’ll never have anyone want to run for office.” The NDP has not addressed why Currie was asked to step down rather than apologize for the comments — which
Currie said in a statement that he regrets posting online. Glen Sanford, B.C. director of the NDP’s federal campaign, described Currie’s comments as not suitable for a candidate in this election, but when asked why an apology from Currie did not suffice, Sanford would only say the comments were “problematic.” Currie has not responded to repeated
calls and emails from KTW for comment, but in his statement said the NDP asked him to resign as candidate due to controversial social media posts. He went on to express his disappointment with not being able to represent the party, which he said he continues to support. Currie was the second NDP candidate in Kamloops-Thomspon-
Cariboo to step down. Original candidate Gina Myhill-Jones of 100 Mile House was acclaimed in the spring, but quit in early August due to a death in her family. Currie was named candidate on Sept. 4 and asked to step down on Sept. 11. As of Tuesday, the local NDP remains without a candidate. Voters go to the polls on Oct. 21.
Election forums • The Council of Canadians is hosting a federal election forum on Saturday, Sept. 28 at 10 a.m. The forum will be held at the at the Kamloops Regional Farmers’ Market, which is downtown at St. Paul Street and Third Avenue. • Kamloops This Week, Radio NL and the Kamloops Chamber of commerce have teamed up to present an all-candidates debate.

Santa Claus is coming to town — on a Sunday evening
ALLEN DOUGLAS/KTW FILE The 2017 Kamloops Kidney Walk was blessed with ideal weather. This year’s event will take place on Sunday, Sept. 22, in McDonald Park on the North Shore. Registration is at 10 a.m., with the walk beginning at 11 a.m. The forecast is encouraging — sun and clouds and a high of 24 C.
WALKING FOR MORE KIDNEY CARE TODD SULLIVAN
STAFF REPORTER
todd@kamloopsthisweek.com
Edna Humphreys wants people to spend more time thinking about their kidneys because not enough people do. “You can’t live without a healthy heart, lungs and kidneys,” she said. Humphreys is one of the organizers of the Kamloops Kidney Walk, an annual fundraiser for the Kidney Foundation of Canada. The event will take place this Sunday at McDonald Park in North Kamloops, with registration at 10 a.m., opening ceremonies at about 10:45 a.m. and the walk starting at about 11 a.m. The route will go from McDonald Park to the Rivers Trail, to the entrance of McArthur Island, then back to McDonald Park. “It’s a really scenic walk along the river there,” Humphreys said. A sausage and pancake breakfast will

be provided by donation by the Kamloops Brock Central Lions Club at 11:15 a.m. Humphreys said that they usually get between 200 and 300 walkers out for the event, but she would like to see more participants. Unfortunately, kidney disease is not something at the top of mind for most people. The local organization’s fundraising goal is $20,000, with all money raised going to the B.C. branch of the Kidney Foundation of Canada. Humphreys said most of the money raised in Kamloops will end up being spent locally and regionally. “Several years ago, we did have something like $31,000 in our walk and, when
I asked the kidney foundation how much money had been spent in our RIH region, it was $27,000 or something,” she said. “It doesn’t exactly stay in Kamloops, but we get what we need.” Some of the money goes to support the seven kidney suites on the Lower Mainland that are often used by locals when they need to travel south for treatment or a transplant. A stay in a kidney suite is only $25 a night, significantly lower than prices at Vancouver hotels. “When my son had his transplant, he was down there just under six weeks,” Humphreys said. “But people can be there eight weeks and most people have to maintain their homes here and pay rent as well. It’s a huge financial burden.” Approximately one in 10 people in Canada suffers from kidney disease. More information on kidney disease and organ donation can be found at the Kidney Foundation of Canada’s website at www.kidney.ca.
The annual Santa Claus Parade in downtown Kamloops will be held on a different day of the week and one week earlier than usual this year — and the event will be moving to the evening from the morning. The Kamloops Central Business Improvement Association, which organizes the annual event that draws thousands of people to the downtown core, has decided to move the parade to a Sunday and have it begin in the late afternoon. This year’s Santa Claus Parade will take place on Sunday, Nov. 17, beginning at 4 p.m. “This year, Downtown Kamloops and TRU want to elevate the magic of Christmas in Kamloops by moving the event to the evening,” said Carl DeSantis, the KCBIA’s executive director, noting the parade was moved up a week to avoid conflict with the Nov. 24 Grey Cup game. Thompson Rivers University will be title sponsor for the third year. The theme of the 2019 parade is the Power of Community, which is intended to reflect TRU’s values of community and sustainability. The planning and judging criteria for floats and the overall celebration itself will mirror the theme. While the day, week and time has changed, the parade route will remain the same. Santa Claus and his elves and all the floats will travel through the downtown, starting from Second Avenue and St. Paul Street and ending at Victoria Street and Sixth Avenue. The event will start with Welcome Santa for the kids at 3:15 p.m., followed by the parade from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. The parade will be followed by a Christmas tree lighting, games and hot beverages at St. Andrews on the Square, which is the site of the Big Bear Child & Youth Advocacy Centre’s second annual Bright Lights for our Children and Youth event. The tree lighting is set for 6:15 p.m. Applications for float participants are now open. Go online to downtownkamloops.com for more information.

or the past 12 years, Literacy in Kamloops has partnered with local newspapers on the RaiseA-Reader campaign — and 2019 isn’t going to be any different. “It’s the only fundraising initiative that Literacy in Kamloops does,” said Fiona Clare, the organization’s outreach co-ordinator. “The funds we raise support our programs throughout the year.” There will be 250 volunteers across Kamloops on Wednesday, Sept. 25, from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. with a special edition of Kamloops This Week that commuters can pick up for a donation to the Raise-A-Reader campaign. New this year is the option for people to donate online, in case they don’t have cash in their pockets or aren’t able to make it out to one of the locations where the special edition of KTW is being hawked. Donations are being accepted online at www.kamloopsthisweek. com/rar. “We really are dependent on the funding that we make on Raise-AReader Day,” Clare said. “And the great thing about it is, over the past years, we’ve always received a percentage of matching funding from the province, so the pot really grows.” Literacy in Kamloops has programs for all ages and includes the Early Literacy Program, the Mother Goose Program, the Teddy Bear Picnic, Children’s Literacy, the 24 Bright Red Book Shelves around Kamloops and the Bright Red Book Bus, which keeps kids reading through the summer. Most of the programs are volunteer-run, Clare said, and because

Literacy in Kamloops is without a physical structure, all the money goes straight into the programs. The funds raised during RaiseA-Reader have grown year over year and, in addition to its importance as a fundraiser, Clare said the event has also been a successful way to connect with the community. “Not only is it fundraising, it’s also building community awareness about the importance of literacy,” she said. “And it really gets the community involved. Literacy programs are not limited to helping people learn to read. In many cases, they are for people who struggle with a lower level of literacy. Clare offered the reminder that it’s never too late to become a reader, pointing to examples of seniors, some in their 80s, who have finally learned to read. “If you’re a reader, help someone else become a better reader because it really can make a huge difference,” she said. Raise a Reader Day is a national initiative run through Postmedia Network, with non-Postmedia organizations such as KTW getting involved. Other Kamloops-area communities taking part include Barriere, Clearwater, Chase and Logan Lake. For more information on Literacy in Kamloops, go online to literacyinkamloops.weebly.com.

Uride, others eye Kamloops for ridehailing services MICHAEL POTESTIO
STAFF REPORTER
michael@kamloopsthisweek.com
An Ontario-based ride-hailing company wants to be operating in Kamloops by the end of the year. Uride has applied to the Passenger Transportation Board to begin operating in B.C. and is targeting five communities — Kamloops, Kelowna, Victoria, Prince George and Nanaimo. Unlike other ride-hailing companies, Uride requires its drivers to have a commercial class 4 licence — a requirement under B.C.’s new rules that has soured larger companies Uber and Lyft from focusing outside Metro Vancouver. Uride, however, specializes in serving smaller Canadian cities, where residents don’t have access to the vast public transportation networks that are available in major cities. “A lot of the mid- and small-market communities, they get a bit left out when it comes to ride sharing,” Cody Ruberto, founder and chief executive officer of Uride, told KTW. Ruberto said the B.C. cities Uride is focusing on were chosen because they are similar to the mid-sized communities in which the company now operates. Uride submitted its application to the Passenger Transportation Board on Sept. 3 and the province, Ruberto said, informed the company it will be four to eight weeks before officials finish evaluating and start approving ride-hailing companies to operate. In the meantime, Uride has been recruiting drivers, including in the Kamloops market. A launch date will be set once Uride has enough drivers signed up and it receives provincial approval,
Ruberto said, adding he has no set threshold for the number of drivers needed to be operational in Kamloops. “The more drivers we have, the shorter the wait times will be,” he said. Ruberto said the number of drivers will depend on how many are part-time and how many are fulltime employees. Ruberto said recruitment has been “going pretty well in every city we’ve announced we’re expanding to.” He said Uride is looking for as many drivers as possible. Kamloops residents wishing to drive for Uride must obtain a class 4 licence and can apply to join the company online at uridetech.com. “It’s [class 4] an extra step for people to take to start driving, so definitely that’s a hurdle, but at the same time, out of the people who have applied to this point, my team has been telling me the class 4 hasn’t been a major issue,” Ruberto said. He started the company two years ago in his hometown of Thunder Bay and has since expanded to Sudbury, North Bay and Chattam-Kent in Ontario and to Winnipeg. Uride operates like any other ridehailing service, with users able to order, track their driver and pay for their ride through the company’s app, which can be downloaded on to smartphones. Uride and fellow ride-hailing service Kater have applied to the Passenger Transportation Board with the intent to begin operating in Kamloops specifically. Companies having committed to the Passenger Transportation Board region that includes Kamloops include TappCar and Lucky To Go.

Supply, demand means more hotel rooms JESSICA WALLACE
STAFF REPORTER

It appears an increase in hotel rooms in Kamloops aligns with
rising occupancy rates. Tourism Kamloops director of communica-
tions Monica Dickinson said hotel occupancy rates — which factor in

most of the city’s hotel rooms — in July rose two per cent over the same month last year. Overall year-to-date through July, occupancy is also outpacing last year, up five per cent from 2018. “There’s this growth trajectory that’s happening,” Dickinson told KTW. About 100 more hotel rooms are expected to come online in 2021, with the construction of a new Four Points by Sheraton hotel next to the Coast Kamloops Hotel and Conference Centre in Aberdeen. Hotelier Ron Mundi is expanding his property, located at 1250 Rogers Way, to accommodate conference attendees. He said the centre’s current 200-room inventory cannot accommodate larger events. It comes at a time when more hotels are rising, in addition to investment in renovation of older spaces. A boutique hotel in
Aberdeen, called The Hue, has 36 rooms, while the former Hotel 540 downtown recently underwent a $9-million facelift and was transformed into the Delta Kamloops. The Kamloops Accommodation Association said the city’s current inventory includes about 2,800 rooms, noting supply and demand are growing at about the same pace. Dickinson called Mundi’s planned new hotel an “exciting announcement.” Occupancy growth, she said, is due to efforts by Tourism Kamloops, community investment in new offerings such as entertainment and all that Kamloops has to offer: hiking, affordability, good weather. “We had a good summer,” Dickinson said. Asked about the impacts of the previous two wildfire seasons on tourism in the city, Dickinson said Kamloops depends
on visitors who pass through by car on their way to Vancouver. Without evacuation notices and smoke and weather advisories popping up, Dickinson said those people were more likely to hop in their car. “This year, without smoke, without wildfires in the area, people were travelling a lot more confidently and freely,” Dickinson said. When reached by KTW last Friday, Tourism Kamloops brass were in Vancouver meeting with their provincial counterparts. Dickinson noted a fall campaign is underway, with a promotion to begin later this month promoting hiking and mountain biking to B.C. and Alberta residents. Dickinson said it is part of the organization’s continued push to promote the city’s shoulder season — with winter, spring and fall continuing to see fewer tourism dollars in the region than summer.

SALMON LEFT: The Big Bar landslide near Clinton is imperilling the migration of salmon.

T
oday, on a remote section of the Fraser River west of Clinton, tens of thousands of salmon are roiling around in turbulent pools, most of them unlikely to ever make their way upstream to spawn. The fish are trapped below a five — metre cascade, caused by a rockslide that crashed into the river near Big Bar in late June. It’s not the first time this has happened. With almost 2,000 kilometres of mainstream river meeting thousands of tributaries, the Fraser and Thompson river systems have seen countless landslides over the millennia. Oral histories from Indigenous people throughout the Interior contain intriguing details of rivers damned by sticks, rocks and ice, at times maintained, or eventually destroyed, by supernatural beings. Combining evidence at macro and micro scales, archeologists and geologists have been able to piece together the results of a few such events in the ancient past. One well-known example is a series of slides on the Fraser River about 300 kilometres above Vancouver, near a small tributary called Texas Creek. While the exact timing and effects of the Texas Creek slides is still the subject of debate, the kilometre-long scar the landslide left behind hints at the enormity of the event. We know the slide happened about 1,000 years ago and is believed to have been large enough to impound the Fraser River behind a 45-metre-high dam of rock, creating a lake more than 30 kilometres long in the Lillooet area. That dam likely persisted for a few years or even a few decades, until the powerful flow of the Fraser eventually eroded it away.

CITY OF VANCOUVER ARCHIVES PHOTOS
Even a blockage of a few years would almost certainly have devastated many salmon runs and the people who depended on them. The inability of migrating fish to reach their spawning grounds throughout the Interior Plateau would have lasting effects on peoples’ reliance on salmon as a stable and abundant food supply. The effects of the Texas Creek slide would have affected not only the St’at’imc ancestors in the immediate vicinity of the slide, but also those in the upper reaches of the Fraser system and, eventually, all those in the Fraser basin who relied on the fish. While archeologists debate the extent of the cultural effects of the slide, it very likely triggered
regional population movements as people reorganized around new food sources. Minimal archeological evidence of conflict from these movements suggests strong kinship and trading networks may have eased the shift for those who found themselves without this vital food source. More recent examples corroborate some of the theories about the Texas Creek event. A slide on the Bulkley River near Hazelton in 1820 created a stretch of rapids that impeded salmon and Wet’suwet’en families moved their village temporarily from Moricetown to below the obstruction. In 1913 and 1914, railway
work in the lower Fraser triggered a series of massive slides at Hell’s Gate, blocking the already constricted canyon and causing a catastrophic crash in salmon populations. Ladders to get migrating fish over the slide were not built until 1945 and stocks have still not fully recovered to pre-slide levels. While the 2019 slide at Big Bar is a natural, even regular occurrence on the landscape, it has come at a time when salmon stocks are critically low due to overfishing, industrial pollutants and warming waters. Huge numbers of salmon that would normally get funnelled into the Interior Plateau won’t make it home, and so won’t spawn, and

Storm drop two to open season KAMLOOPS THIS WEEK
The Kamloops Storm, with a new owner, new general manager, new coach and new logo, have seen larger crowds at Memorial Arena through the first two games of the young Kootenay International Junior Hockey League season. But the junior B club is still looking for its first win of the 2019-2020 campaign. The Storm dropped the first two games at home after yielding identical 3-0 leads. The deficits led to a 4-2 loss on Saturday to the Chase Heat and a 3-1 setback on Friday to the Golden Rockets. On Saturday, Chase jumped out to a 3-0 lead, with two power play goals, before Hayden Hirsch scored for Kamloops 13 minutes into the second period.
A power-play marker by Therann Kincross two minutes into the final frame pulled the Storm to within a goal, but Chase’s Tyson Lampreau scored at the 12:30 mark to give the Heat a 4-2 lead that would be the final score. The contest was even across the board, including shots of goal (Kamloops with 34, Chase with 29) and penalty minutes (Kamloops with 16, Chase with 14). The Heat were two-for-six on the power play, while the Storm were one-for-six with the man advantage. Jordan Foster registered the win in net for Chase, turning aside 32 of 34 shots he faced, while Kamloops netminder Ethan Paulin-Hatch stopped 25 of 29 shots that came his way. On Friday, Golden jumped out to a 3-0
WANTED
lead and held on for the 3-1 victory, outshooting Kamloops 29-19. Kamloops’ lone goal, at the mid-point of the third period, came from Yewta Plamondon, with assists to Therann Kincross and Brody Johnston. Golden goalie Brandon Weare started the game and turned aside 17 of 18 shots, while Jonah Chambers faced, and saved, one shot. In the Storm crease, Jakob Drapeau stopped 26 of 29 shots he faced. Kamloops is back on the ice next weekend, with a Friday, game in Armstrong against the North Okanagan Knights (a 7:30 p.m. faceoff at the ArmstrongNorVal Centre), followed by a home games against the Revelstoke Grizzlies on Sunday. Faceoff is 5 p.m. at Memorial Arena.

BLAZERS PERFECT IN PRE-SEASON Logan Stankoven scores one of his two goals on Friday as his Kamloops Blazers defeated the visiting Kelowna Rockets 6-1. Kamloops bested Kelowna 3-2 in a shootout on Saturday in the Lake City.

KAMLOOPS THIS WEEK
The Kamloops Blazers have finished the Western Hockey League pre-season schedule undefeated, with a 7-0 record and a stellar 41-13 goals for/goals against ratio. The real season — the 2019-2010 WHL regular season — begins for Kamloops on Friday, Sept. 20, when the Spokane Chiefs visit Sandman Centre for a 7 p.m. game. Whether the sizzle of the exhibition slate carries into the regular season remains to be seen. Kamloops capped off a perfect pre-season with a 3-2 shootout win in Kelowna on Saturday, which was preceded on Friday by a 6-1 win at home against the Rockets. At the end of the pre-season, the Blazers occupied the

Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
You have marbles, each one being one of red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. There is at least one of each colour, no more than nine of each colour and each colour has a different number of them. From these clues, determine how many of each colour you have: 1) Two times the number of yellow marbles is the number of red marbles and three times the number of yellow marbles is the number of violet marbles — or red and violet are the other way around. 2) There are more than one each of the number of green marbles and the number of orange marbles and their product is the number of blue marbles. 3) The number of green marbles times the number of violet marbles equals 18. How many marbles are there of each colour?

Angela Pam Moore
Lory Heijster (née Zernickel)
January 31, 1979 – September 7, 2019
January 4, 1956 - August 29, 2019
It is with broken hearts that we tell you of our Angie’s passing after a brief and courageous battle with cancer on September 7, 2019 at 40 years of age.

She leaves to cherish her memory her loving husband Bob, her amazing children Bradley, Tyson and Caitlin, her father Harry (Cathy) Hearnden, brother Chris (Erin) Hearnden, Heather and Willy Moore, Kevin (Alisa) Moore, her nieces, nephew, extended family, friends and furbaby Tucker. Angie was predeceased by her son Connor and her mother Jill Hearnden. She was raised in Port Hardy and while living there she met and married Bob, the love of her life. With Bradley and Tyson in tow, their young family moved to Kamloops, BC where Angie studied nursing at TRU. Angie and Bob welcomed Caitie to their family nine years ago. The lights of her life were her husband and children. She was so proud of each of the children and valued the kind, smart and wonderful people they are turning out to be. She was their best friend, biggest cheerleader and the most loving mother.
Lory Heijster passed away peacefully with her family by her side at the age of 63 in Kamloops, BC on August 29, 2019. Predeceased by parents Johann “John” and Katharina “Tina” (née Plett) Zernickel. She is survived by her four children Stephen (Julie) Heijster, Gary (Theresa) Heijster, Kristina Mohle, Kelsey (Justin) McCurdy, seven grandchildren and brother Michael Zernickel. Lory was born in Vancouver, BC in 1956. With her husband and children she has lived in Surrey, Delta, Salmon Arm, Abbotsford and Kamloops.

In lieu of a service, messages or memories can be posted on the “Lory Heijster Memorial Tribute” group on Facebook.
A Division of Service Corporation International (Canada) ULC.
She surrounded herself with family and friends. The more the merrier for every dinner (she was a fantastic cook!), holidays, sledding days, camping trips, game nights and just hanging out. If you were friends, you became family. She was a true friend. Her laugh was infectious and would make everyone smile and laugh along with her. She spent many hours baking for fundraising at the school, for resident activities at her work and for families in Kamloops dealing with childhood cancer. She volunteered at the Rayleigh school for years in the hot lunch program, working concession at crafts sales and dances, helping out at the community barbeques, garage sales and loved it all. Angie worked at Pinegrove Care Home for many years. Angie was an exceptional nurse, she ensured all residents were treated with the utmost care, dignity and respect. She would go above and beyond for the residents and her work family. A heartfelt thank you to all of her extended family, friends and work family who brought meals, flowers, gifts and provided support, thoughts and prayers over the last few months. In her toughest days, the presence of loved ones brought her the most comfort. Life is what you celebrate. All of it. Even its end. Family and friends are invited to attend a Celebration of Life open house on Saturday, September 21, 2019 from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm at the Kamloops Yacht Club, 1140 River Street, Kamloops, BC. In lieu of flowers and donations, take the time to hug your children, grandchildren or a friend. Tell those you love that you love them.
September 19, 2016 Mavis Edna Sorensen (née McConnell) was a loving mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother who dedicated her life to her family and friends. In honour of her life and spirit, we have established a memorial bench alongside her loving husband Robert Sorensen’s memorial tree at Charles Anderson Park. May they continue to bring peace and comfort to all who cross their path. We would like to extend our welcome to anyone who wants to join us in the dedication of the memorial bench in honour of Mavis at 1:30 pm on Saturday, September 28, 2019 at Charles Anderson Park.
At Schoening we believe a life should be remembered. By having a service at our home, you can do whatever you want, play tribute videos or favourite music or decorate the celebration centre in a manner that will give closure to family and friends.

He graduated from South Kamloops Secondary in 2015 where he was loved by many. Wherever Morgan went he could always light up the room with his contagious laugh, jokes, smile and sarcastic sense of humour. He was always there to lend a helping, loving hand, along with a sarcastic comment. Morgan enjoyed playing sports such as rugby, hockey and football, he enjoyed camping, hunting, boating, hanging out with friends, going to the casino and being with his loved ones. Morgan’s love and kind heartedness will always be remembered as one of a kind. May the memories you have of Morgan be cherished and never forgotten. “If there ever comes a day when we can’t be together, keep me in your heart, I’ll stay there forever.” -Winnie the Pooh.

I have been able to reconnect with old friends of many years and have been rewarded with an outpouring of affection and love that has certainly sustained me in some dark moments and for this, I thank you all - you know who you are. I grew up in Flin Flon, off to Winnipeg at age 18, for two years, then to Calgary, where I met Stan and we married in 1967, off to Kamloops in 1979 where we have resided ever since, as well as Scotch Creek for the past 20 plus years in the summer. Truly a blessed life. I need no formal service. I have seen and talked with so many of my beloved family and friends that I feel my life is complete and my family will scatter my ashes at my requested places. Thank you all for being a part of my family’s life over the years. We feel enriched by your support and caring thoughts and it has been overwhelming. Be kind, non-judgemental, smile a lot, use your manners, and be generous to the less fortunate. Life goes on, it can be short, make it a good one!!! The Salwach family would like to extend a huge heartfelt thank you to the outstanding staff at the Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Memorial Hospice Home for their care, support and compassion. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to them in Ronel’s memory.

OBITUARIES & IN MEMORIAM Bryan Rickson
Dalbert (Dal) Duane Varney August 2, 1940 - September 12, 2019
With profound sadness we wish to announce the passing of Bryan Rickson on September 11, 2019.
Charles “Ross” House
Celebration of Life Jon Wandler
We say goodbye to Dalbert (Dal) Duane Varney, who passed peacefully after a yearlong battle with cancer.
Bryan is survived by his wife Sharon, son Troy and daughters Monique and Susan, his grandchildren Cody, Cassie, Christie, Carlee, Kennedy and Porter, his great-grandchildren IloRayen, Cali-Jo and Codi-Lee and his brother Terry. As a child, his time was divided between Penticton, Kamloops and Tunkwa Lake with his Grandpa Old Mac, who ran Tunkwa at that time. After leaving school he had various jobs but the two he came back to were Glidden Paint and School District #73. After years on the road with Glidden in Alberta and BC and having achieved “top salesman” in Canada, he returned to the School District for the second time in 1975 and remained there until his retirement in 2002. He was dedicated to his work with the District and retirement left a void in his life, so him and Sharon did a lot of travelling and cruising. Bryan always said to the family, “ Love you to the moon and back”. Well Bryan, back at ya! Until we meet again. The family will be holding a Celebration of Bryan’s Life on Friday, September 20, 2019 from 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm at the Brock Senior Activity Centre located in the Brock Shopping Center at 1800 Tranquille Road. Please bring all your funny stories.
He is survived by his faithful and loving wife Patricia, his three children Sheila (Dave), Darren (Kirsten) and Conrad, his grandchildren Brittany, Jonathan (Britt), Elaina and Lindsey, his great-grandchild Alaric, sister Verna, brother Carmen and their families. Dal lived a full life, filled with an appreciation for hard work, common sense and love of family. He will be greatly missed, but fondly remembered. Please join us at 1:30 pm on Friday, September 20, 2019 at the Desert Gardens, 540 Seymour Street, Kamloops, BC to celebrate our memories and share stories of this very loved man. Donations may be made in Dal’s name to RIH, Heart and Stroke, or SPCA.
THE TIME IS NOW If you are ever going to love me, Love me now, while I can know

Marjorie “Jeanne” McDonald 1933 - 2019 Marjorie “Jeanne” McDonald passed away peacefully, surrounded by family on Tuesday, September 3, 2019 at the Overlander Extended Care Hospital in Kamloops. She is lovingly remembered by her husband Don and her three children Allan (Pam), Jan (Gary) and Brent (Rhonda). Jeanne also leaves her grandchildren Kris Fraser, Alyssa Fraser, Tayla Collings (Mike), Garret McDonald (Sarah), Haley Boldt (Tyler) and Brandon Evanoff. She will also be missed by her great-grandchildren Calla, Charlie and Michelle. Jeanne was born in Prince Rupert. The second of six children born to Roy and Estelle Lancaster, she grew up mostly in Hazelton, where her father was station agent for the CNR. As a young woman, Jeanne continued the family railroading tradition by becoming an office employee for the CNR in Prince George. Before long, she was noticed by young telegraph operator named Don, and the rest is history. Don and Jeanne remained together for the next 66 years. Jeanne moved with her young family to several railroad towns; Smithers, Prince George, Edmonton, Winnipeg and finally Kamloops, where the McDonald’s settled down for good in 1972. Jeanne worked happily as a manager in the jewelry department at Sears from 1972-1987. For many years she spent her summer months golfing at the Kamloops Golf and Country Club and her winter months on the ice at the North Kamloops Curling Club. Most of all, mom loved family gatherings, where everyone was welcome, and Sunday dinner was always delicious. Jeanne was predeceased by her parents Roy and Estelle Lancaster, her brothers Norman and Art, and her sister Beth. She is survived by her sisters Maureen and Marg (Gary) along with numerous nieces and nephews. The family would like to sincerely thank the staff at Ponderosa and the Overlander Extended Care Hospital for their many acts of kindness and care during mom’s time there. Flowers gratefully declined. Memorial donations in Jeanne’s memory may be made to the Alzheimer’s Society of BC or the Heart and Stroke Foundation. The Funeral Service will be held at 1:00 PM on Saturday, September 21, 2019 in the Kamloops Funeral Home, 285 Fortune Drive. Pastor Tim Busse officiating.

Dr. David Geoffrey Hanks December 23, 1963 – August 24, 2019 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of David Geoffrey Hanks on August 24, 2019 at the Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops, BC. He will be lovingly remembered by his beloved wife Hilary, his children Megan, Geoffrey, Matthew and Graeme, his mother Merilyn, his brother Greg (Tracey), his cousin Debbie Okrainetz (Richard), his parents-in-law Samuel and Nancy Yoshida, sister-in-law Naomi Yoshida, brothers-in-law Sean Yoshida (Asae) and Mark Yoshida (Susan) as well as many nieces, nephews, extended family and close friends. He was predeceased by his father Mitchell, in 2004. David was born in Nelson, BC. His father was in the RCMP so David grew up in several smaller communities including Nelson, Vernon, Ocean Falls, Terrace, Kelowna and Salt Spring Island where his parents eventually retired. His love of learning led him to study at the University of Victoria where he completed a BSc (Honours) in Chemistry and graduated at the top of his class. He then attended medical school at the University of British Columbia, where he met the love of his life, Hilary. They married in 1993, and moved to Ottawa where he completed his general surgery residency. David and Hilary were happy to move back to BC in 1998 when a position became available at the Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops. David was passionate about his work. For 20 years, he practised general surgery with what he referred to as “the most amazing and truly supportive group of colleagues” which he believed he would not have found anywhere else. As a clinical instructor for the UBC Faculty of Medicine, sharing his knowledge by teaching residents and medical students was often the highlight of his day. Always a strong vocal advocate for the Royal Inland Hospital and its services, he dedicated
many tireless hours on various committees to making it a better place for the people of Kamloops. The kindness and support from the families and community of people in Kamloops meant so much to David and his family, especially during this past year and a half as he battled cancer. David lived life to the fullest. Most important to him was spending time with his family. He was always present at his children's activities including music recitals, soccer games and judo. He looked forward to our family reunions every summer at Chesterman Beach, and every winter skiing at Sun Peaks. With many fond memories of fishing as a child, he remained an avid fisherman spending endless hours with his family on the waters off Tofino, on Adams and Horsefly lake, and around the Gulf Islands. He loved reading and learning, and enjoyed talking with close friends on long walks. A very creative person, David was a very enthusiastic and talented woodworker. David's family is very grateful for the care he received at the Royal Inland hospital and they would like to thank all the doctors, nurses and staff involved in his care. A Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday, September 22, 2019 at 4:00 pm at the Southwest Community Church, 700 Hugh Allen Drive, Kamloops, BC where David listened to many of his children's piano recitals. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to the Royal Inland Hospital Foundation in memory of David.
