▼ NDP LEADER

Local tributes pour in for Layton STAFF REPORTER

With over 40 years in the NDP Eileen Robinson says she will always remember party leader Jack Layton as an uplifting man who never failed to inspire. News of his passing was released early Monday morning after a very public battle with cancer, with reaction from politicians coast to coast mirroring the sentiment. “I never ever heard Jack Layton mean-mouth anybody,” said Robinson. “Everyone really took to him because he was so upbeat.” The charismatic character is widely credited with the party’s unprecedented success this year. In May, he led the left-ofcentre party to form the official Opposition, the party’s most successful electoral showing to date, with 103 seats. A father of two and life-long politician, Layton was originally from Hudson, Quebec and had a family history in both advocacy work and politics. His father, Robert Layton, was a Liberal activist and served as a Progressive Conservative Member of Parliament and Cabinet minister under Prime Minister Brian Mulroney. His grandfather sat in the House of Commons as

did his great-grandfather, who was an advocate for the blind. Robinson joined the party in the early 1970s as she started to get involved in local social issues and says, though only a dozen people attended the first meetings where she would have met Layton in the Okanagan, he spent plenty of time returning to the area, trying to rally support in his characteristic style—from the ground up. “He just made you feel good about what you were doing,” she said. “He believed in people and that we could build a better country.” Robinson’s first dealings with Layton came shortly after he was elected to lead the NDP party during the first round of voting at the 2003 party leadership convention. He had been heavily involved in local politics prior to that, even leading the Federation of Canadian Municipalities after losing a bid for mayor of Toronto, and she noted his experiences as a local politician must have informed his political outlook. Both personally and professionally he lived for social justice issues— running an environmental consulting business, living See Layton A4

▼ GOSPEL MISSION

New homeless shelter for women opens Kathy Michaels STAFF REPORTER

Some of Kelowna’s most vulnerable women will now have a service that allows them to find refuge from the streets on a night-to-night basis. City council unanimously approved allotment of $5,000 in emergency funding that would allow the Gospel Mission to open a six-bed shelter

for women aged 19 and older. “The site is situated downtown…and it’s accessible. There’s a separate entrance and bathroom that are ready for use today,” said Central Okanagan foundation‘s Cheryl Miller, of the Gospel Mission’s converted medical office, in the previously all-male shelter. The need to find space recently came to the fore,

when it became clear that there’s a growing number of at-risk women who have no access to shelter during the summer months. Last May, NOW Canada turned away 33 women from its shelter because of a lack of space. By June, that number had risen to 50. “Turn-aways become more frequent in the summer months when the cost

of motel units increases, and Inn from the Cold and other temporary resources are not available,” said Miller. Operation of the facility will continue into the fall, and Gospel Mission staff have been in talks with B.C. Housing that would allow them to continue to the program on a yearly basis. Mayor Sharon Shepherd thanked the mis-

sion’s Randy Benson for filling a gap in the community, while Coun. Charlie Hodge said approval of the funding was a “no-brainer.” The project is in partnership with NOW Canada and will be funded in part by the City of Kelowna and the United Way. Interior Health has also been asked to partner in the program. kmichaels@kelownacapnews.com

NEWS ▼ CITY

Kelowna cracks down on noisy boats and bikes Kathy Michaels STAFF REPORTER

Noisy boaters and motorcyclists should keep the growl of their engines to a dull roar when rolling through Kelowna, unless they’re interested in paying fines in that range of $500 to $1,000. City council approved a noise bylaw amendment that would allow police to ticket anyone whose vehicle is producing 92 decibels of sound while idling. When driving, the maximum acceptable noise would be 96 decibels. “We’ve had this problem for a long time and it will be widely known very quickly we have this bylaw and we’re going to enforce it,” said Coun. Graeme James, during the Monday meeting, when the issue was raised. “It will clean up this problem very quick.” Motorcycles and boats with stock factory parts shouldn’t be a problem, as all on-road bikes are built to certain factory noise standards. The bylaw aims to crack down on bikes with custom exhaust systems that increase the bike’s noise. It’s a change in tack that industry experts didn’t anticipate would be a problem for most. Luc Fournier, director of policy for the Canadian Motorcycle and Moped Industry Council, was in council Monday and he fully supports the proposal, as well as the hefty fine associated with contra-

vention. That said, he’d also like to see Kelowna implement testing clinics, so those who ride will be informed on whether they break noise bylaws when they mount their bike. “The results have been positive with that specific approach,” he said, noting that an Edmonton clinic that was held after that city launched the noise bylaw, brought in more than 1,000 motorcyclists and allowed the police to get further testing on the noise gauging equipment. Those who didn’t change their ways did, however, face fines. Since implantation in 2010, Edmonton police issued 110 tickets. Twenty-four of those tickets were contested, and 14 penalties were set aside. The rest of them were paid without incident. While the bulk of councillors and the industry representative were supportive of the changes, Coun. Andre Blaneil said he had concerns that the bylaw would discourage tourism and unfairly penalize motorists who were breaking sound barriers unknowingly. To that, Coun. Robert Hobson pointed out that it’s more important to protect the rights of regular citizens who have been subjected to noisy boats and bikes for too many years. Once police purchase the sound testing equipment, further educational material will be circulated and clinics will be held.

The students will actually begin their training in the Lower Mainland next month and come to the Okanagan Valley in January. Jones gave a brief tour of the new medical building on the UBCO campus to several students and the media Monday. The program also has a campus building on the grounds of Kelowna General Hospital.

Ouellette Rescuers fail to retrieve hiker’s body to run for mayor ▼ NORTH OKANAGAN

Search efforts for the 20-year-old Kelowna man who fell down an embankment Aug. 13 while hiking with friends came to a “heartbreaking” halt over the weekend, say searchers. “We were so close,” said Leigh Pearson, a Vernon Search and Rescue manager who, along with rescue crews, unsuccessfully attempted to remove the body from a logjam on Monashee Creek Sunday. “In order to do the extraction, they had to move a tree out of the way, and when they did that, an entire creek bank, probably 12 to 15 feet long by eight-feet high, just caved into the water,” said Pearson. The body ended up go-

ing into a hole in the creek estimated to be about 10 to 12 feet deep, followed by some incredibly large rocks, estimated to be in excess of 500 pounds. Water is flowing above at approximately 30 km/ hour . “The body is underneath some rocks,” said Pearson. “It’s a heartbreaker and I know it’s heartbreaking for the crew.” The area where rescue crews have to go to search for the man can’t be accessed by vehicles other than ATVs, and that only gets personnel close to the site. “Where we have to search, we have to use rope systems to rappel people down into the can-

yon, a distance of about 200 feet,” said Pearson. “Getting any equipment in there is impossible.” Asked if moving the rocks to get to the body can be accomplished, Pearson said he honestly didn’t think so. “They broke a steel pipe pole trying to pry rocks out of the way, broke it completely in half. You don’t know what the creek is going to do,” he said. “Moving water is a live beast that can do some amazing things. It may just take one of these boulders to get moved, everything will let go and we’re back and running again. But who knows? Rescue crews told RCMP they are confident the body is that of the mis-

sing hiker, and not that of a missing 31-year-old Vernon man, who is also believed to have fallen into the creek at almost the same location on the May long weekend, along with a friend. The Kelowna man lost his footing while hiking one kilometre northwest of the Gold Panner Campground. The hiker was swept into Monashee Creek after the fall, while friend Daniel Lovegrove, 21, of Peachland, died at the scene from injuries suffered in his fall. RCMP have yet to identify the missing man, but other sources have identified him as Scott Lawler, a well-loved regular from the Kelowna Actors Studio.

Incumbent Mayor Sharon Shepherd will face a familiar foe when she seeks a third term as mayor in November’s civic election. Kim Ouellette, who challenged Shepherd in 2005 and 2008 has announced she will run for Kelowna mayor for a third time. Three years ago, wth little or no public profile other than that fact she ran in the previous election, Ouellette was Shepherd’s only opponent. She garnered 24 per cent of the vote. Voter turnout in 2008 was very low, with only about 16 per cent casting ballots.

▼ FRUIT

Packing technology advances expected to help growers Steve Kidd CONTRIBUTOR

New packaging technology revealed Friday could give Okanagan fruit growers a competitive edge by lengthening shipping times and allowing fruit to arrive at market in a fresher condition. “Our producers need cutting-edge technologies

that will help them remain competitive in the global marketplace,” said Okanagan Coquihalla MP Dan Albas, in making the announcement that Agriculture Canada is investing $261,000 to help Innovative Food Systems and the scientists at the Pacific Agriculture Research Centre complete development of the product.

“We are delivering on consumers’ demands for freshness and environmental responsibility. And we are opening up new markets, so that future generations of farmers are well set to compete in global markets.” The new shipping containers, explained Dr. Perry Lidster, president and CEO of Innovative

Food Systems, allows suppliers to cool a closed and lidded box of fruit as quickly as they could without a lid on it. The addition of the anti-microbial agent that activates at high temperatures or high humidity helps prevent the development of fungi, mould and bacteria, ensuring the safety and quality of the fruit.

“We are able to withstand temperature abuses like the product being left on the tarmac at an airport or on an unrefrigerated dock at a retail store and we are able to ensure that product will not decay, that there are no foodborne pathogens that are developing on it,” said Lidster. It will also allow ship-

pers to provide a premium ripe product that is harvested at a more mature stage, rather than the dark green that tomatoes or peaches are usually harvested at before shipment. “It’s actually gone through some of its initial ripening process,” he said. “So you are going to get something that we can sustain for a period of 25

to 35 days through the distribution system and have it ripe within a day at distribution centres.” Cost savings for producers come from more economical shipping methods—ocean or rail, rather than air—and fresher fruit at the destination means more sales, with fewer damage claims. Penticton Western

NEWS ▼ JACK LAYTON

Late NDP leader remembered as a man who inspired others Layton from A1 in a co-op with his second wife Olivia Chow and becoming a notable advocate for the poor. Layton immediately sussed out the homelessness issue as one Kelowna would struggle with in the years to come, Robinson noted. “He saw that even here

in affluent Kelowna, the homeless were here and there were quite a few of them,” she said, noting he pushed for local party members to see that the issue be addressed. His death came as quite the shock for both her and close friend Tisha Kalmanovich, who represented the party in the Kelowna-Lake Country rid-

ing. “As someone whose very recent to politics, I’ve just been amazed and impressed by his commitment to an alternative approach to politics,” she said. From a small café in Kelowna’s North End, Kalmanovich and a core group of NDP supporters witnessed firsthand the

success of Layton’s dedication to that cause. With sporadic cheers and plenty of smiles they watched the NDP, previously more of an afterthought on the federal political scene, take over as the official Opposition. “It was a rush,” she said. “It was wonderful. It really did make it quite clear that there are two sides to Canadian politics.” Coming from the other side of the equation, Conservative MP Ron Cannan said he got to know Layton at many levels of politics over the years and was always personally impressed by him. The pair would often run into one another in Ottawa where they frequented the gym, rode their bikes and the bus as a means of getting around—neither having a car on Parliament Hill. “He fought the cancer just like he campaigned,”

said Cannan. According to Cannan, there was a general understanding on the hill that Layton was not doing well, even as the parties battled through the NDP filibuster of the Canada Post back-to-work legislation in June, which saw the Parliamentary session extend for 58 hours as the NDP tried to block attempts to force striking workers off the picket lines. Characterizing his efforts to continue leading the party in the face of serious illness as heroic, Cannan said all of his colleagues were hoping for a medical miracle and that his presence will be sincerely missed when the House of Commons resumes in mid-September. Finding the right person to assume the leadership of the party will be very difficult, local NDP candidate Tish Lakes

stressed when contacted at the Okanagan Advocacy & Resource Society where she works. “I still can’t quite believe it,” she said. “It’s a major shock all the way around. “He was a very decent person trying to get the good out of Canadian politics.” Noting the party would be in a state of shock, she stressed she believes the party needs to take its time trying to fill the position, saying he’s left very big shoes to fill. In an open letter to Canadians, Layton himself suggested an approach of the same. He recommended the party wait until the New Year to choose a new leader, leaving interim leader Nycole Turmel in place. In the letter he left messages for his party, others coping with cancer, Canadians as a whole,

and young Canadians in particular, a group he was known for attracting to politics. (To see Jack Layton’s last letter to Canadians, turn to page A7.) Now in his early 30s, Matthew Reed is among the young NDP members who has stood for election locally and said he knows firsthand that Layton inspired many young adults to get involved. Rather than a dictatorial leadership style, Reed said Layton took an approach which allowed everyone in the party to get involved in setting the party’s policies and that his approach has left a legacy that will change the face of Canadian politics for generations to come. In Kelowna, city council paused for a moment of silence Monday to remember Layton at the start of its meeting. jsmith@kelownacapnews.com

HOV experiment has run its course

ots has been said about the HOV lanes on Highway 97. Kelowna’s mayor wants the Ministry of Transportation to take another look at them and possibly only use the high-occupancy rules during certain times of the day. One councillor figures the limited-traffic lanes should be dumped altogether . One thing is clear, as they are currently set up, they don’t seem to be working. Despite the support they still have from local ministry offi-

cials, the lanes—reserved for multi-occupant vehicles, buses, motorcycles and emergency vehicles—are fast becoming irrelevant for local motorists. And for those who do obey the rules, the existence of the lanes only makes an already busy road seem busier during peak traffic. Like talking on a cell phone when driving, motorists here seem to pay little attention to signs indicating the HOV lanes are reserved for vehicles with more than one occupant inside. There hasn’t been a police

crack down on single drivers using the lanes. We’re not sure if that would be the best use of police resources. But the abuse over the last year has done little to make traffic flow any smoother during rush hour. What has worked has been the addition to the new William Bennett Bridge and its three lanes out of town in the afternoons. Before the HOV lanes were created, there were three lanes for traffic in either direction on Harvey Avenue. But confining the majority

of vehicles to two lanes (legally) simply angers law-abiding motorists who watch lawbreakers zip by them in the deserted HOV lane. The experiment with HOV lanes through Kelowna has not worked and its time to either go back to the drawing board or reopen the lanes to all traffic. With politicians weighing in on the issue, you can be sure that if not addressed now, the issue will come up in the municipal election campaign in November.

The editor itics in droves as his party’s upbeat could also safely assign the intern to message made learning the system trundle down to the NDP election appealing. And as a young reporter, party without fear he or she would

be delivering the winning front-page story on deadline. For those who got used to the orange dye of the NDP’s neck scarves and the homemade cookies at the potluck receptions, this introduction to covering politics was non-threatening, if at times a little befuddled, as a makeshift, last-minute candidate tried to learn the ropes. But it was genuinely inspiring. As I moved into this job, 23-yearold single-mother Starleigh Grass was running for the party and proving to be one of the more articulate members of the 2004 federal campaign. It was refreshing to realize someone of my own ilk—a young woman—

could participate in this process in an informed way, even if her showing at the polls lacked numbers. A few years later, Layton himself would impress at the Kelowna Accord meetings, as he pitbulled his way through a media scrum. He was a tenacious fighter, if a bit of a sideline character, and you couldn’t help but admire him. As the numerous tributes pouring into the media attest, Layton, more than any other Canadian leader, understood he couldn’t ride policy or a name into political office, he had to win you over. Having now covered politics for a good chunk of my career at the grass-

roots level as a city council reporter, I can honestly say the guy from Toronto could draw one in as though he was the mayor of one’s own city. And, as a glass half-full kind of guy, I believe he would want Canadians to look at the unbelievably impressive showing he achieved in winning those 103 seats in May. It is gut-wrenching to think that all those years of watching him build his party should end just as he got to show us what it was all about.

LETTERS

FUTURE SHOP - CORRECTION NOTICE

Leader of the NDP, Jack Layton, died at his home in Toronto early Monday morning. Anticipating his end was near, on Saturday Aug. 20, he wrote a letter to be shared after his death. Some is directed to his NDP party members and caucus while other comments, shared here, are directed to all Canadians. August 20, 2011 Toronto, Ontario Dear Friends, Tens of thousands of Canadians have written to me in recent weeks to wish me well. I want to thank each and every one of you for your thoughtful, inspiring and often beautiful notes, cards and gifts. Your spirit and love have lit up my home, my spirit and my determination. Unfortunately my treatment has not worked out as I hoped. So I am giving this letter to my partner Olivia to share with you in the circumstance in which I cannot continue. To other Canadians who are on journeys to defeat cancer and to live their lives, I say this: please don’t be discouraged that my own journey hasn’t gone as well as I had hoped. You must not lose your own hope. Treatments and therapies have never been better in the face of this disease. You have every reason to be optimistic, determined and focused on the future. My only other advice is to cherish every moment with those you love at every stage of your journey, as I have done this summer. To the members of my party: We’ve done remarkable things together in the past eight years. It has been a privilege to lead the New Democratic Party and I am most grateful for your confidence, your support and the endless hours of volunteer commitment you have devoted to our cause. There will be those who will try to persuade you to give up our cause. But that cause is much bigger than any one leader. Answer them by

recommitting with energy and determination to our work. Remember our proud history of social justice, universal health care, public pensions and making sure no one is left behind. Let’s continue to move forward. Let’s demonstrate in everything we do in the four years before us that we are ready to serve our beloved Canada as its next government. To the members of our Parliamentary Caucus: I have been privileged to work with each and every one of you. Our caucus meetings were always the highlight of my week. It has been my role to ask a great deal from you. And now I am going to do so again. Canadians will be closely watching you in the months to come. Colleagues, I know you will make the tens of thousands of members of our party proud of you by demonstrating the same seamless teamwork and solidarity that has earned us the confidence of millions of Canadians in the recent election. To my fellow Quebecers: On May 2nd, you made an historic decision. You decided that the way to replace Canada’s Conservative federal government with something better was by working together in partnership with progressive-minded Canadians across the country. You made the right decision then; it is still the right decision today; and it will be the right decision right through to the next election, when we will succeed, together. You have elected a superb team of New Democrats to Parliament. They are going to be doing remarkable things in the years to come to make this country better for us all. To young Canadians: All my life I have worked to make things better. Hope and optimism have defined my political career and I continue to be hopeful and optimistic about Canada. Young people have been a great source of inspiration for me. I have met and talked with so many of you about your dreams, your frustrations and your ideas for change. More and more, you are

engaging in politics because you want to change things for the better. Many of you have placed your trust in our party. As my time in political life draws to a close I want to share with you my belief in your power to change this country and this world. There are great challenges before you, from the overwhelming nature of climate change to the unfairness of an economy that excludes so many from our collective wealth and the changes necessary to build a more inclusive and generous Canada. I believe in you. Your energy, your vision, your passion for justice are exactly what this country needs today. You need to be at the heart of our economy, our political life and our plans for the present and the future. And finally, to all Canadians: Canada is a great country, one of the hopes of the world. We can be a better one—a country of greater equality, justice and opportunity. We can build a prosperous economy and a society that shares its benefits more fairly. We can look after our seniors. We can offer better futures for our children. We can do our part to save the world’s environment. We can restore our good name in the world. We can do all of these things because we finally have a party system at the national level where there are real choices; where your vote matters; where working for change can actually bring about change. In the months and years to come, New Democrats will put a compelling new alternative to you. My colleagues in our party are an impressive, committed team. Give them a careful hearing; consider the alternatives; and consider that we can be a better, fairer, more equal country by working together. Don’t let them tell you it can’t be done. My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we’ll change the world. All my very best, Jack Layton

Committed to principles Layton skillful To the editor: Many political strategists will judge Jack Layton’s achievements by the number of seats he won for his party over the years, but behind those electoral victories was a leader who remained steadfastly committed to his principles above all. I met Jack Layton shortly after his arrival in Ottawa as leader of the NDP, and watched him in the years that followed as he became a good friend

of the peace movement. He spoke up for diplomatic efforts and dialogue with insurgents to end the war in Afghanistan, years before it became a fashionable position. At the time, he was derided by his critics, taunted and called names by Conservative Party members, and even had his patriotism questioned. But today, Layton’s vision is shared widely in capitals around the world as the only workable solu-

tion in that strife-torn region. There are many other stories like this where Jack endured shameful attacks from his political opponents while he stood by his principles. I am certain that Jack Layton will be remembered as second only to Tommy Douglas himself: one of Canada’s greatest Canadians. Steven Staples Rideau Institute, Ottawa

To the editor: Jack Layton demonstrated his political skill in taking advantage of the opportunity provided by the Liberals and Bloc. He developed his party into a mass movement and used a combination of his popular support and behind-the-scenes intrigue to propel himself into the Official Opposition.

Furthermore, he raised the profile of national socialism, showed how a modern “civilized” country could behave, and created a virtual certainty that he would be misjudged by opponents. His shoes will not be easily filled. William Perry, Victoria

sion feel authentic. Ruaidhri Silverhand has been with the group for over 15 years. “I’ve been a history nut all my life. I was always fascinated by the thought of knights, chivalry and honour. It’s something that seems lacking today,” said Silverhand. “I get to dress up in armor and fight with a sword. It’s like a fire hose of adrenaline has been put in at the base of my neck.” The rush that Silverhand spoke of has also been felt by over 50 others in the Okanagan, who have joined the group. The Duchy of Con-

nacht is a local chapter of the Adrian Empire, a group founded in 1987 that promotes the advancement of knowledge and skills reflective of the time period. One of the most popular events at the Medieval Fair was the sword fighting demonstration. Silverhand said the group studies and practices to make the combats as historically accurate as possible. “We’ve gotten copies of the original fight manuals. We’ve studied and trained, learning the combat as accurately as possible,” said Silverhand. “We have to make cer-

tain allowances for safety. There is no way we want to see anybody get hurt.” Silverhand said the group gets together every two weeks to practise. “A lot of the guys will fight at practise. A couple of us lead and teach because we’ve been doing it for so long and have studied particular things.” The Duchy of Connacht also puts on monthly events to showcase their organization. “For the actual events we have tournaments and wars. A couple of years ago we did the Battle of Stamford Bridge. We fought it as it was, with as

much historical information as we could find.” Aside from sword fighting, the group also features artisans, archers, lamp workers, historical clothes makers, woodworkers and even a blacksmith. The group may seem intimidating; however, Silverhand said they are quite welcoming. “We’re always looking for new members; we’re not exclusionary. We’re a family organization: A lot of us have children who participate to one degree or another. We are quite happy to teach new people.”

For many of our athletes, their time playing junior football was a precursor to moving onto University to continue their education, often through the lure of scholarships. The Okanagan Sun will offer its athletes the opportunity to stay in Kelowna and continue their post-secondary education at UBC Okanagan, Okanagan College or trade school through our own scholarship program. This scholarship program will allow our athletes to pursue their education sooner and help the Okanagan Sun build an even stronger team as we attract some of the best junior age football players across the country.

Fire fighters quickly brought the blaze under control, saving the structure from being destroyed, but it was badly damaged. The occupants, four adults and one child escaped uninjured. Fire investigators were to be on scene in the Monday to determine the cause of the fire, which was initially not thought to be suspicious. A damage estimate has yet to be determined. Because of the damage to the building, the residents of the home could not return and were in the care of Emergency Support Services. The Kelowna Fire Department is reminding the public to test smoke alarms regularly.

Running, swimming and biking are events for the Hoel family. Janae, 12, along with 10-year-old Brock and seven-year-old Lincoln, competed at the 29th annual Pushor Mitchell Kelowna Apple Triathlon on Saturday. They raced in the Kids of Steel event, which featured athletes aged eight to 19. Even though Lincoln was a year younger than the lowest listed age, he still managed to take 18th place. Janae crossed the line in 21st position and Brock earned an impres-

sive second place finish. Despite their young age, the Hoels are relatively experienced at competing in triathlons. “This is our first time at this triathlon, but we’ve done lots (of others) before,” said Brock. Brock began competing when he was sixyears-old. His secret is a lot of training, especially in the water. “I swim mostly. I’m on a swim club so that’s probably one of my strongest events,” said Brock. Good genes may have played a part in the Hoels’ impressive results. The kids’ dad, Rod Hoel, said that he is no stranger to running.

Kelowna cops nab two men wanted on Canada-wide warrants A stolen cell phone and a traffic stop have landed two men in jail after police discovered both were wanted Canada Wide.

The first arrest occurred on Aug.16 after the accused, 24 year old Tyson Cole, of Kelowna, became involved in a confrontation with anoth-

er man at Gyro Beach. Cole allegedly stole a cell phone belonging to a female friend of the other male, and ran away. Police, with assis-

tance from an RCMP dog tracked Cole to a residence in the 2,100 block of Ethel Street where he was apprehended and found to be on the federal

warrant for revocation of his parole. Cole appeared in court late last week to face charges of robbery and two counts of resisting ar-

history of Criminal Code related offences, said the RCMP. Also, on Aug. 17, just after noon, a Central Okanagan traffic cop was conducting patrols near Richter Street on Highway 97 on his motorcycle when he saw a man in a grey Kia sedan texting on an electronic device while driving. The officer stopped the vehicle and dealt with the driver, who admitted to not having a valid driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s licence. After being asked to get out of the vehicle, the man ran away, but the cop followed on motorcycle. After telling the man to stop, the officer hopped off his bike and grabbed the man, arresting him for obstruction. It was then learned the driver, 30-year-old Jesse Hampton, was wanted on a Canada-wide warrant for an armed robbery committed in Vancouver last year. Hampton, who is known to police for criminal code related offences, appeared in court yesterday to face a charge of obstructing a police officer. He was also served a Motor Vehicle Act violation ticket for not having a valid driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s licence and using an electronic device while driving.

The B.C. SPCA is ramping up to its largest fundraising event of the year, the Scotiabank and BCSPCA Paws for a Cause Walk for the Animals. The fundraising is well on its way with many people and companies getting on board to raise money for local abandoned, abused and unwanted animals. A couple of Kelowna’s favourites are getting in on the activities, including Mayor Sharon Shepherd and Sun FM radio host Sonia Sidhu. The BCSPCA Kelowna Branch will be housing Shepherd in a dog kennel at 12:30 pm on Aug. 25. They will be looking for donations to get out of the kennel and help the SPCA. “We promise to make them as comfortable as we can with some nice bedding and of course lots to drink and some snacks,” said Suzanne Pugh, branch manager at the Kelowna location. The Vancouver office of the BCSPCA held a get out of the kennel event last year, housing senior manager of cruelty investigations, Marcia Moriarty and Scotiabank district banking manager, Lynne Weber. “Not only did the campaign raise awareness for the BCSPCA and the Paws for a Cause event, it raised over $10,000 for the animals of Vancouver,” said Marni Adams, regional development officer for the BCSPCA. “We loved the idea last year but were unable to get it together in time so we are thrilled to have the Get Out of the Kennel in Kelowna and even more excited to have Mayor Shepherd and Sonia Sidhu involved. Shepherd supports

and attends events for the Kelowna SPCA whenever she can. If you want to help get the mayor and Sidhu out of the kennel, you can support this campaign but visiting the branch at 3785 Casorso Rd., calling 250-861-7722 or sendan e-mail to kelowna-spca@shaw.ca” kelownaspca@shaw.ca. Let them know you are there to help the Get out of the Kennel event and they will be happy to accept your donation. If you would like to see Shepherd and Sidhu in the kennel, visit the branch and while you are there, you could win some SPCA swag for your donation or have a hotdog in support of the Scotiabank and BCSPCA Paws for a Cause. The Paws for a Cause walk will go Sept. 11 at City Park. Registration will begin at 9 a.m. with the three-kilometre dog walk at 10:30 a.m. and the one-kilometre furry scurry at 11 a.m. “We have a fantastic day planned full of new activities for our participants,” said Kristin Mazuran, event co-ordinator. “Be sure to look for the clues to Guess What’s in the Big Steel Box with a prize valued over $500 or enter your dog in the Dog’s Got Talent competition to be held on the main stage at noon. “Don’t worry we will still have the infamous gold rocks along the walk route, find a rock and win a prize or enter your dog in the relay race or PJ’s Party Cake walk,” she added. Register online at www.spca.bc.ca/walk or visit the Kelowna BCSPCA to pick up your pledge form today. All money raised will stay in Kelowna to help our local animals.

Hard luck hoax aimed at seniors

olice are again warning the public, especially seniors, to be aware of ta people who have been door-knocking and scamming residents for money recently. One incident involved a plea for money because of a vehicle breakdown and a promise to pay the money back. The victim did not fall for it. A previous incident saw the suspect telling the victim that he was the victim’s neighbor’s son-inlaw and that he (the sustpect) had paid the neighbor’s alarm repair bill but still owed the alarm company more money. The suspect asked the victim for money, stating the “inlaws” (victim’s neighrbours) weren’t around, and promised to pay the Kmoney back. Once again, the victim saw through the ruse and refused. Both of these scams were directed at seniors. In both cases, a black early 1990s Pathfinder was involved and police are following up this lead. A

SENIORS’ CONCERNS

Sharen Marteny suspect description was given of a male in his early to mid-30s, with short brown hair and wearing a T-shirt and shorts. Do not fall victim to persons who give you any kind of hard luck or convoluted story that ends up with them wanting your money. There are ample resources available for those who really need help. Call the RCMP at 250-762-3300 if you are approached for money in a similar scenario. Scammers will continue to sell their deceit as long as people are willing to buy it. RCMP Const. Steve Holmes, Const. Ann Donnelly and Const. Carl Stene from the Kelowna RCMP Detachment and

Seniors Consulting have partnered to speak with groups that want to learn more about fraud aimed at seniors. These presentations will assist people living in gated seniors’ communities, supportive housing residences, families of seniors and service organizations. The presentation will include an overview of various fraud schemes, how to identify them, what to do about it and how to notify the police. For the public’s safety people have to be familiar with how fraud works. Any group that is interested in hearing the presentation needs to contact me and I will book a date for it. Any individual wanting to hear this valuable information can attend one of the following onehour scheduled presentations. • Aug. 31 at 10:30 a.m. at Missionwood Supportive Housing • Aug. 31st at 1:30 p.m. at Village at Smith Creek Supportive Housing Resi-

If you give in to one of these frauds, would you be worse off for having done it? C: Credible. Does the person, who is trying to convince you have any credibility that can be verified? A: Aggressive. Is the scammer using an aggressive tactic, or language, that requires an immediate or imperative response? M: Motive. Is their motive to deprive you of money or assets (banking information), with a promise of reward?

Stabbed in the Back?

o you have back pain so bad it feels like you have been Stabbed In The Back? Do you hate your pain with a passion? If you do I can help. Do you have pain so intense it grabs you when you roll over or sit up in bed? Do you have pain that forces you to inch forward just to tie your shoes? Is your low back so electric that it makes you walk sideways to get away from the pain that is making your stomach cramp? Does your back pain exhaust you because you haven’t slept through the night in weeks? Do you have back pain that is so sharp, hot, and confusing that you look around to see who just stabbed you? Is your back pain robbing you of your joy and your life? The standard medical treatment for pain is to take drugs. Of course pain medications have their place, but they will not solve the most common causes of back pain – separated and torn connective tissues, and bulging spinal discs. In fact, many pain medications will actually delay healing. The best way to solve pain from injured spinal discs, tendons, and ligaments is to turn on your healing with Regenerative Injection Treatments. As a member of the American Association of Orthopaedic Medicine I have studied Regenerative Injection Treatments under their world class instructors, many of whom are former orthopaedic surgeons. When torn tendons regenerate they return to their normal length and the muscles they are attached to stop cramping. When separated tendons and ligaments reattach to the bones they support the network of nerve fibers covering those bones calm down and pain is resolved. When an injured spinal disc regenerates it takes pressure off of spinal nerves to relieve pain throughout your body. If you want a doctor who knows pain and hates it as much as you do, and more importantly a doctor who is trained and experienced in Regenerative Injection Treatments, I’m your doctor. Don’t wait for another stab of pain, call my office now. Dr. Wikenheiser is a licensed Naturopathic Physician. He was born and raised in Kelowna, where he practices family medicine in an open and informative style. He offers a wide variety of medical tests and regenerative treatments. He is also an expert on natural medicine...

Less is often more when it comes to imposing covenants

’ve written many times on the topic of the unpredictable impact of covenants restricting employees’ postemployment activities. What is certain about such covenants is the value of adhering to the “less is more” rule. Generally speaking, in the employment context, post-employment restrictions on an individual’s conduct are presumed to be unenforceable. That is the result of the fact that free labour mobility is a matter of public policy. In practice, that means that (with some limitations) individuals can

YOU WORK HERE

Robert Smithson move on to ply their trade wherever, and with whomever, they choose. That includes doing so with a competitor of the former employer. Businesses, on the other hand, have a private interest in limiting competition and some seek to bind their employees by way of various restrict-

ive covenants. This interest in eliminating competition can drive employers to impose covenants which are unreasonable in the circumstances. The enforceability of those covenants is frequently debated before the Canadian courts. And, almost universally, the less restrictive a covenant is on the employee’s post-employment activities, the more receptive the courts will be to its enforcement. A recent decision from Ontario’s Superior Court of Justice provides an example of an employer which successfully ap-

plied the “less is more” rule. Tom Mason was a technical sales representative who had been employed by Chem-Trend Limited Partnership for 17 years. Mason’s sales territory was all of Canada and certain parts of the United States. Chem-Trend is a company with world-wide operations and customers. Mason was required to be familiar with ChemTrend’s products and with their customers’ businesses and operations and product needs. At the time of hiring, Mason had signed a restrictive covenant in which he agreed, for a period of one year following termination, not to engage in competitive business activities or to solicit business from any of Chem-Trend’s customers

or to cause a disruption of any of Chem-Trend’s customer relationships. Mason’s employment was terminated and he sued for damages for wrongful dismissal. Chem-Trend counterclaimed against Mason for breaching the restrictive covenant by “using his knowledge and experience at Chem-Trend to gain business opportunities for himself.” Mason’s view was that the restrictive covenant was unreasonable and far too broad to be enforceable. The Court considered the covenant’s geographic scope, the range of restricted activities, and the duration of the restrictions. After finding the geographic scope and range of restricted activities to be reasonable (though “more onerous

than the norm”), the Court turned its attention to the duration. The Court stated that “[t]he covenant is only in effect for one year, which is considerably shorter than periods found in other restrictive covenants that the Courts have considered and upheld.” Citing a leading case in which a five year covenant was upheld, the Court concluded, “[t]he restrictive covenant being in place for one year after Mr. Mason’s termination is a relatively short period of time.” Notably, the Court mentioned that the short duration of the covenant balanced the fact that the geographic scope and range of restricted activities were relatively onerous. As a result, the Court found the restrictive covenant (as a

whole) to be reasonable and enforceable as against Mason’s post-employment activities. Had Chem-Trend succumbed to the temptation to impose the restrictive covenant for a longer duration, it seems likely the Court would have found it to be unenforceable. As it was, Chem-Trend’s shrewd application of the “less is more” rule was its saving grace.

ary Dutz and his wife Natalie, owners and operators of the World Gym locations in Kelowna and West Kelowna, couldn’t help themselves in their declaration of how important their gym clients are to them, both as an entrepreneurial business couple and as folks who, as Natalie describes, are just everyday people caring about everyday people. Gary Dutz’s story began in the small B.C. town of Chetwynd, born to an enterprising father who ran a successful logging operation in a variety of Interior locations, moving the family often. Gary explained that his late father will always have a special place in his

While working with his father, Gary decided to become a machinist so he would have an additional skill for his future and in 1984 the family moved to Prince George for Gary’s father to further his work. During Gary’s earlier life, he met Natalie, who hails from Quesnel. After a lot of driving hours vis-

As we know, circumstances in life prompt changes that often end up leading to an entrepreneurial venture and in 2000 the Dutzs decided to leave the forestry industry and move to Kelowna. Having experienced the operational requirements of their small gym and having Natalie’s brother as an example of the potential for a gym owner, Gary said that, in speaking to a Life Fitness equipment representative, he began to put the pieces together for their Okanagan venture. After weighing the pros and cons of World Gym and Golds Gym franchises, the couple chose the World Gym franchise model for its personal suitability to their own lifestyle and customer intentions.

BUSINESS ▼ OPERATING A BUSINESS

Being in the restaurant business is not just about the food

elowna is a tourist town—some might even call it

a resort. So we have lots of restaurants and lots of recreational type activities and businesses operating here. Since locating downtown myself, I have noticed that some restaurants thrive and others open up in April and close down in October. Keeping a restaurant going is no easy task. First you need to be able to have a menu that appeals to both the local residents as well as the tourists. You also need to be a bit trendy because people like to try something new. Once they try it, it needs to be good enough so that they will want to come back. There are lots of criteria that people use to choose a restaurant. Some of which are the ambiance, location, atmosphere,

BEHIND THE COUNTER

Gabriele Banka meal size, how the food is displayed on the plate, the comfort, noise level, type of food. The list can be almost endless. In my opinion in order to have a successful restaurant you need to be able to cater to the tourist trade and also to the local residents. Those restaurants that have managed to be around for a few seasons may also need to periodically reinvent themselves to keep the local residents interested. In a restaurant business you also need staff, and staffing can be one of the most difficult areas of being in business. Training costs can be high so

most businesses try to implement plans to encourage their staff to stay on. I was amazed to be eating in a local restaurant downtown recently and find that our server returns every summer just to work at the restaurant, now that is loyalty! I should have asked the owner what his/ her secret was. So the main costs of owning a restaurant can be listed as the lease/rent, food costs and labour costs. Restaurant owners need to plan menus so that they can serve fresh food daily. There is nothing worse than eating almost spoiled food at a restaurant and ending up with something close to food poisoning later in the evening. There are some food suppliers that provide breaks by way of discounts to restaurant owners and much research needs to be done to find the best quality for the best price.

There is a training tax credit available both federally and provincially for those restaurants that hire staff that are training to be chefs. Information on this program can be found at www.sbr.gov.bc.ca.

‘‘ THE RESTAURANT BUSINESS CAN BE CONSIDERED TO BE CYCLICAL

Restaurants also need to lease space that has a lot of square footage and since most leases are based on square footage, this can be expensive. The best scenario is to work out a lease where you receive a reduced rate for the first three to five years until you get estab-

reduced rate of HST (8.5 per cent currently). Running payroll for a restaurant is also complex and time consuming because there is usually a lot of staff turnover. It takes time to set up a person in a payroll program and then there is also the requirement to issue an ROE within five business days after the person leaves. The restaurant business can be considered to be cyclical in that it is busy only during certain times of the day or certain days a year. In view of that, BC Employment Standards offers an easy way to calculate statutory holiday pay for a restaurant and to pay overtime. This is called using an averaging agreement. Most employees work for minimum wage and collect tips. There is a

lished, or perhaps base the lease on sales rather than on square footage. There are a few accounting issues with accounting for a restaurant. The first is that the food purchased by a restaurant usually does not have any HST attached to it, so the restaurant has very little to write off against the HST that it is required to collect. So, initially you need to make sure that you do not register for HST before you make the $30,000 threshold. When you do, you then have 30 days to register at which time you will be required to remit HST until you give up the business. Once you are registered, you may qualify for the Quick Method of Accounting for HST if your annual sales are less than $200,000. This method will allow you to remit a

ActNow has lots of information on how much exercise people need at different stages of life, how to get it—and perhaps most importantly, how to have fun with it. Healthy eating is one of the simplest, most important things to improve health and reduce risk of future illness. In every stage of life, nutritional requirements change. It’s important to know what these changes mean and what adjustments need to be made to the diet. ActNow offers dietary information for people of all ages and lifestyles in-

Quitting can be one of the hardest challenges people ever face.

But it’s never too late to try. Even after decades of smoking, your body repairs itself and, after a while, it’s almost like you never smoked at all.

The most common foreign body found in cats is string. Any household object your pet chews on can become a problem. Although some smaller objects can get through the gut without getting stuck, the larger pieces can result in serious gastrointestinal complications.

The presence of the foreign body can lead, not only to either a partial or complete obstruction but also a tear of the gastrointestinal tract. Ingestion can also lead to intoxication, such as with coins or batteries.

gastrointestinal foreign body ingestion is vomiting. With a complete obstruction, the vomiting will be profound and frequently will be accompanied by lethargy, loss of appetite and depression. A pet with an untreated obstruction will probably die within three to four days. With a partial obstruction, the symptoms will be less severe and may be intermittent. The animal will lose weight, but as long as it keeps drinking, it may live for three to four weeks. Foreign bodies are usually diagnosed by imaging. Some objects can be seen on a plain x-ray, in other cases the object itself can not be seen but the shape of the intestine reveals typical pattern that highly suggests the presence of a foreign body in side. Sometimes a contrast x-ray is required. In this type of test, the animal is fed by a special dyeing material that helps determining if there is obstruction and its nature. Some foreign bodies can also be diagnosed by ultrasound or an endoscopic exam. Once the diagnosis is made, treatment depends on the location of the object and the pet’s medical condition. In many cases a surgical intervention is required. In simple cases the surgery involves only removing the object. In more complicated cases, where the blockage has caused permanent damage, the surgery is more See Oz A21

SPORTS ▼ APPLE TRIATHLON

10th title for Whitfield, Brault wins first triathlon title Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER

The man most Canadians associate with the sport of triathlon is still the man. Victoria’s Simon Whitfield held off friend, training partner and rival Kyle Jones on Sunday at the Pushor Mitchell Apple Triathlon in Kelowna to win the national men’s title for an unprecedented 10th time in his career. Whitfield—a two time Olympic medalist— narrowly edged out Jones in last year’s race, but dominated the 2011 field on a hot, muggy afternoon finishing the 1.5 km swim, 40 km bike and 10 km run in one hour 54 minutes 12 seconds. Jones was second in 1:54:36, while American Gregory Billington took third in 1:54:46. Jones had beaten Whitfield in two previous races leading up to the Apple making him the only Canadian in the last decade to get the best of Whitfield. But on Sunday it was the 37-year-old veteran who held the upper hand. The two were neck-andneck over the first two legs of the race before Whitfield left Jones in his wake on the running portion. “It is nice to get one on Jones because he has been bloody strong this year,” said the two-time Olympic medallist. “We had some fun banter throughout the week. We have become like brothers. Every

workout we are side-byside so we know how much it will hurt to win.” While Whitfield’s victory came as little surprise, Sarah-Anne Brault shocked the women’s field by winning her first ever Canadian championship. The 21-year-old Winnipeg product, who attends West Virginia University on a track scholarship, pulled off an unlikely upset as she overtook world No. 3 Paula Findlay of Edmonton during the 10 km run and never looked back. “I felt pretty good today, but I am so surprised,” said Brault. “Paula took off after the transition. She’s the best in the world. I never once thought I could catch her or win. I had no idea how the run would go, but I just kept to my pace.” Brault took the gold in a time of 2:04:41. Findlay, who is regaining her fitness after a hip injury earlier this year, took the silver in 2:05:35. American Lindsey Jerdonek took the bronze in 2:06:03.

last four years and in 2011 drew its largest number of competitors ever—more than 1,800. Next year, with the Canadian championships expected to be hosted by Edmonton, the overall numbers of competitors

VETERAN SIMON WHITFIELD crosses the finish line at Sunday’s Apple Triathlon in Kelowna for his 10th national triathlon title. one of the rising young stars in the sport, won the first of the four races of the Teck National Junior Series which culminated with Saturday’s national championships, clocked a winning time of 59 minutes 53 seconds over the 750-metre swim, 20-kilometre bike and five-kilometre run. “The bike course was really technical and I had to work hard to catch up,”

said the 18-year-old Pennock, who finished third last year. “The race was really excellent with lots of energy from all the people. I am so happy to win.” In the junior men’s race, Lefebvre, of Laval, Que., clocked a gold-medal winning time of 56:05. “It was a very good race and my team helped me a lot,” said Lefebvre at the finish line.

Still, the annual summer event in Kelowna will continue to attract many of the continent’s top triathletes in the years to come. “A lot of the elite athletes, we think, will still make this one of their big

stops,” said Apple Triathlon president Richard Montgomery. “This will still be the ITU Pan American event, we’ll have the Western Canadian youth championships, and all the other races and events we’ve run in past years

“Working with my coach, our strategy was to stay together as a group on the bike, and to move strongly into the run with some spare time,” he said. “My team worked really hard and it’s because of them that I won today.”

I’ve just been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes and was told that I need to start exercising. I’ve never exercised before, how can it help me now?

Unless there is some reason that you should not exercise, it is essential for most Type 2 diabetics to include physical activity into their diabetes management plan, along with proper diet and possibly medication. Regular exercise can help improve one’s blood glucose (sugar) control for those who are Type 2 diabetic. Regular exercise can also help to improve one’s insulin sensitivity, and for many people this can result in a reduction in their medication dosages. A reduction in medication dosage helps keep your healthcare costs down, as well as reducing the number of potential side effects some people experience while taking certain medications. Keeping your blood sugars within your target ranges helps to delay or even prevent future health complications related to diabetes. Along with the benefits for managing Type 2 diabetes, regular physical activity may result in other positive health benefits such as healthy weight management and a decrease in cardiovascular disease risk. If you plan to start an exercise program, be sure to consult with your physician first. Especially in the beginning stages, monitoring your blood glucose before and after exercise and balancing your food and medication intake is extremely important. Learn more through the next Chronic Disease Management program starting September 2011. For more information contact Phoenix Health & Fitness at 250-212-7335 on the Interior Health partnership program.

What are the beneﬁts of advertising my business or services in “Ask the Experts”?

Newspapers are used to plan purchases, either for an immediate need or a future purchase. While the economy might have changed the way Canadians shop, one thing that hasn’t changed is the tool that they use to make their shopping decisions. Most adults identify newspapers as the way they use to plan shopping or make purchasing decisions. Secondly, newspapers ads are WELCOMED! In other media, ads are actively avoided. Newspaper is one of the few types of media where readers indicate that they want the ads. Newspapers score higher than T.V., Radio and the Internet in terms of Canadians. Lastly, newspaper readers take action, over 10 million Canadians read a newspaper on an average weekday. But they don’t just read the paper, they are moved to action based on the advertising contained in it.

HOME INSPECTION MYTHS Part 4

Having misquided beliefs about home inspection services can lead to poor buying processes & suspect ﬁnal decisions. Craig Hostland, of Pillar to Post, North America’s leading provider of home-inspection services, offers responses to some of the most common myths about home inspection.

Myth: A

structural inspection is enough.

Fact: A home inspection covers more than just looking at the structure. Home inspectors look at all the home’s major systems including plumbing, electrical, heating, cooling, ventilation and other component defects such as exterior wall systems, roof and foundation as well as surface drainage. If a home inspector does find potential problems - or other issues that are dealt with by specialists, such as chimney or structural problems - he or she will recommend a qualified service agent for that. Qualified home inspectors conduct a thorough visual inspection of major elements of a home and check items for function. The more qualified the inspector the more knowledge you can gain about the home and its systems, before you bu uy itit. uy t. t. buy

Why isn’t my home selling?

Market conditions are constantly changing and so are marketing techniques. Years ago, open house and local advertising brought in the majority of buyers & newspaper advertising was the only venue, today the internet has taken ﬁrst position. Ensure your property is not only advertised in local print, but also on the internet. Today’s buyers can buy from looking at your home on line and virtually come from anywhere in the world. Globally connected! Staging your home and having professional photos on line can make the difference between being for sale and SOLD. Be competitive in both presentation and price. Set the stage for success before your property is listed. With careful planning, it is possible to buy and sell in this market and come out ahead. Choose the Right Agent for today’s market!

‘Defense was good, special teams, they were fantastic:’ Casey offense took a while to get going, but once they did they looked pretty smooth. Our defense was good, they were getting lots of pressure, and our special teams, well they were fantastic. All in all, we’re moving in the right direction and getting better with each game.” If there was still any early-season rust on the Sun heading into Saturday, Casey said much of it should now be gone as his club hits the halfway mark of the campaign. Between repetition

and a solid commitment from the players, Casey said the BCFC team continues to make steady progress. “The guys are practicing harder and they’re practicing smarter,” he said. “The first three weeks, mentally and physically the guys weren’t necessarily on the same page. They’re buying into what we want to do here, and it’s paying off. The repititions are higher both in number and in quality and we’re seeing the results.” Quarterback Jeremy Joseph-Mraovic, starting in place of the injured

Steven Doege Bobby Davis (left thumb), passed for 239 yards and fired a trio of touchdown passes Saturday against Westshore—one each to Mike Friend, Dan Turek and Mitchell Thompson.

Sophomore Armand Bokitch returned from injury to make his first start at running back and led the ground attack with 127 yards and two touchdowns, including one on a 55-yarder. Ben White returned a punt 83 yards for a major and Steve McFadyen added two field goals as the Sun registered a singlegame for points this season. On the defensive side of the ball, lineman Steven Doege earned a spot in the record books with two sacks. In just shy of 2 1/2 seasons, the 6-foot-

3 230-pound Doege is the BCFC’s all-time leader in career sacks with 24.5. Casey said Doege and the rest of the Sun defense—not to mention offense and special teams— will need to be at their best as they travel to Nanaimo to battle 2010 player of rhe year Jordan Yantz and the Raiders (4-0) Saturday afternoon. The stakes, as always, are high with the winner taking over sole possession of top spot. “They’re a highly talented team, they’ll be very tough but we know what we have to do,” said

Sideline events get everyone involved

Casey. “We’re going to try and beat a team that hasn’t lost a game at Caledonia Park in eon. Our guys know the history, they know what’s required and how well they’ll need to play. “If you need extra motivation to play the Raid-

Apple from B1 da and abroad—will keep the Apple Triathlon at the forefront of many people’s summer plans. The elite races, age group races in the Olympic and sprint distances, the Try-a-Tri, the Kids of Steel, and Kids of Steel camps will remain big draws during the third weekend of August. “This event certainly puts Kelowna on the map for sport tourism,” said Montgomery. “We had people from 12 different countries this year, so it’s not just a regional thing, it’s truly an international event. The type of people we bring into the community is good for Kelowna, they extend their vacations, they stay for an extended period, use our hotels…there is a big economic impact.” As always, volunteers are a vital aspect of the organizing committee’s ability to stage the event. The Apple called for 1,200 volunteers this year and was able to solicit the services somewhere near 1,000. “It’s such a big event, there are so many contingencies, we could always

with his family as they were watching his sister participate in the Western Canada Summer Games in Kamloops. He dropped by the Rockets dressing room to meet with management and coaches before getting in a workout alongside some of the Rockets returning and former players. “I’ve been to Kelowna before but I have never been to the rink,” he said. “It’s a nice facility here. It’s great to see all the pictures on the wall of the former players.” The Rockets picked Chartier with the 15th overall selection in the 2011 WHL Bantam Draft. At the time Rockets head of scouting Lorne Frey

STAFF REPORTER

When the Kelowna Rockets selected Saskatoon native Rourke Chartier with their first pick in this summer’s Western Hockey League bantam draft, the 15-yearold Chartier wasted little time finding out more about the team that he belonged to. And it didn’t take long for Chartier to get excited about the future possibilities. “I looked them up and saw that they had won quite a bit in the past,” Chartier said. “It’s pretty exciting. They have a winning tradition.” Chartier was in Kelowna last week along

called Chartier an offensive dynamo who the fans will come to know and love. “We were very pleased to be able to pick Rourke,” said Frey. “With him there is no question he will one day be a fan favourite one day. He’s a dynamic player. He’s excited and really pumped about being selected by Kelowna and we’re looking forward to watching him develop.” Chartier will return home to Saskatoon before turning around and coming back to Kelowna for its rookie camp. As a 15-year-old, he will head back home to play a season of midget AAA hockey with the Saskatoon Contacts and is eligible to play in five games with

SPORTS ▼ SENIOR FEMALE HOCKEY

▼ GOLF

Closer to making Team Canada Two Eagles’ A pair of Kelowna female hockey players have taken a big step towards their ultimate goal of making Team Canada’s senior female hockey team. Jordan Krause and Julia McKinnon were among a list of 22 players selected to play for Canada’s National Women’s Under-18 Team in a three-game series against the United State’s Women’s Under 18 Select Team in Rockland, ON. The three game series began Thursday and continues until Sunday. Krause currently

plays for the Pursuit of Excellence. She won provincial gold medals in 2006, 2008, 2009, and 2010, and most recently represented Team BC in the 2011 Canada Games in Halifax, NS. McKinnon currently plays for the Ontario Hockey Academy. She is also a four time B.C. provincial hockey champion and was the provincial top scorer in the 2009-2010 season. She was also Team BC’s top scorer at the 2011 Canada Games. Invitations were made based on performance at

the National Women’s U18 Team selection camp that was held August 7-14, 2011 in Rockland, ON. Players were also evaluated by Hockey Canada regional scouts throughout the 2010-2011 season. The team will play three games against the United States at the Canadian International Hockey Academy in Rockland. Following the camp, Hockey Canada scouts and coaching staff will continue to evaluate players with their club teams during the 2011-

2012 season, in order to make selections for the team that will represent Canada at the 2012 IIHF Ice Hockey Under 18 Women’s World Championship, which will be held in January in the Czech Republic. Krause and McKinnon both skated with the Thompson Okanagan Rockets in the B.C. Female Midget AAA League two seasons ago. ••• Several other Okanagan Rockets female hockey alumni have found places to play this coming season after graduating

Junior Jays fifth at nationals The B.C. champion Kelowna Jays settled for fifth place at the Canadian Junior Baseball Championships. The Jays overcame the disappointment of missing out on the playoff round by defeating Saskatchewan 4-1 on Saturday in the 5th/6th place game in Windsor, Ont. Kelowna got a solid effort from starter Danny Moore who shut down his

Saskatchewan opponents, allowing just two batters past second base and striking out four in six innings of work. K.P. Hlatky led the way offensively for the Jays with a double, two runs scored and two stolen bases. Keenan Takatch also chipped in with a key RBI double in the top of the first. Jake Chapman was 2-for-3, scoring a run and

stealing two bases. Kelowna opened the tourney in impressive fashion, downing Newfoundland 10-1, then beating Nova Scotia 8-5. The Jays lost to Quebec 8-5, then dropped a hard-fought 6-5 heartbreaker to the St. Thomas team from Ontario. Kelowna led 5-3 heading to the seventh but Ontario scored three times in the top of the inning for

Society, Spinal Cord Society, Westbank high-school student, Evan Scott, who broke his neck in a BMX biking accident, Rick Hansen Foundation and Kelowna Youth Rugby. This year the proceeds will be going to the Kelowna Crows U-19’s and U-17 programs. Kick off for the 29th Annual Ensign Cup is 3:30 at City Park. A social will follow at the Kelowna Club on Leon. An autographed team Canada Rugby jersey will be raffled. The event is always attended by many local rugby alumni and has become a local social event many look forward to. Those who played in the game will create memories they will hold onto for many years to come. More importantly, those who have benefited from the Ensign Cup will remember the past 29 years of something much more important—the goodwill of the local rugby community. The players in this game are also getting ready for another full sea-

son of men’s rugby. The Crows first and second team practices are held

Jack 11th in B.C. juvenile champs

West Kelowna’s Kylie Jack tied for 11th spot at the B.C. Juvenile Girls Golf Championship. The Two Eagles member carded a three-round score of 258 (91-85-82) at the Myrtle Point Golf Club. Kelowna Golf and Country Club’s Tiegan Taylor finished in 21st. West Vancouver’s Alix Kong won the girls title at

‘Limp in... Leap out!’

the win. With a 2-2 round-robin record, the Jays came up short of a playoff berth, but showed they were competitive with the best teams on a national stage, despite having just 16 players on the roster. Thanks to winning the 2011 provincial title, the Jays will represent B.C. at the 2012 Canadian junior championship in Trois Rivieres, Que.

Ensign Cup set for City Park For the first time since 2005, the Ensign Cup will be played at Kelowna’s City Park. The 29th edition of the annual charity rugby game is set for Saturday, Aug. 27 at 3:30 p.m. The game originated as a fundraiser for Rusty Ensign in 1983. Rusty became a quadriplegic while playing for the Kelowna Crows that year. The Okanagan College Swagman and the Crows played the first game to raise funds for Rusty’s rehabilitation. Soon after the two teams amalgamated. Since then the game has been a fiercely contested intersquad game between the over- and under30s. With the under-30s handily winning the last two games, fate, pride and glory will be in the minds of the old boys on Saturday. Rusty and the Kelowna Crows have kept this benefit rugby game going to raise funds for several different charities over the years. They include: Rick Hansen’s Man in Motion Tour, People in Motion, Mt. Boucherie Expansion

from the regional female hockey program. Janessa Jenkins has accepted a scholarship to Mount Royal in Calgary, Alberta, while Kelsey Freudenberger will be attending the University of Calgary and Bre Frasca will be attending University of Lethbridge. This season’s regional female midget team is still recruiting players. Any interested midget female players are encouraged to contact head coach Mark Elder at eldarn@shaw.ca

MILLER, JOHN ROBERT 1917 - 2011

On August 18, 2011 at the age of 94, Robert passed quietly into the arms of his Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. He will be sadly missed by his wife Gertrude, step-daughters Margaret (Don) McLellan and Susan Clark, step-grandchildren Sharalynn Clark, David (Emily) Clark, Trevor (Erin) McLellan, and Gina (Lucas) Morel, seven great-grandchildren, niece Lydia (Bill) Redden in Nova Scotia and many other nieces, nephews and cousins across the country. Robert was predeceased by his parents, Burpee and Hattie Miller and his brothers Charlie and George. Robert was born on the family farm in Upper Stewiacke, NS. He lived in that area for 44 years, doing farm work, logging, mill work and trucking. In 1961 he moved with his widowed mother to the Okanagan to be with family here. Robert worked at Gorman’s mill and then at Stewart Brothers’ Nursery until he retired in 1981. He devotedly cared for his mother until she passed away at age 98. As a 67 year old bachelor, he married the love of his life, Trudy Black. They had 27 happy years together; they loved and cared for each other. The family thanks the staff at Joseph Benjamin Residence for the excellent care he has received over the past years. Sincere thanks also to the doctors and nurses of KGH – 4 East.

CUISINE from Jude’s kitchen can the harvest Finally, a bit of true Okanagan summer has crept into the valley and the tomatoes and peppers, peaches and apricots are ripening—weeks later than normal. That means it’s time to dig out the canner and begin to put away some of that beautiful fresh produce for winter, when summer’s just a distant memory caught between the snowflakes. Whether it’s Ginger-pear Chutney, Peach Relish, Harvest-time Antipasto, Spicy Salsa, or just plain canned fruit, those jars will look very cozy crouching on your pantry shelf and they will also make much-appreciated gifts for your loved ones, perhaps with the recipe attached, or a copy of my new book, Jude’s Kitchen, which is available wherever books are sold. If you don’t have the ingredients for these late-summer recipes available from your home garden, don’t forget the Kelowna Farmer’s Market is open three days a week now; plus there are weekly ones in both West Kelowna and Peachland, in addition to a variety of on-farm fruit and vegetable stands where you can meet the farmers as well as enjoy the freshest produce—and support local families. There are also a number of events coming up, where food is king, along with some great entertainment. Three Chefs in the Vineyard at Mission Hill Family Estate is on this Saturday, Aug. 27, featuring the winery’s executive chef Matt Batey, and Vancouver-based Dennis Peckham, executive chef from COAST Restaurant and Ryan Gauthier, area chef, the Glowbal Collection of Restaurants. It begins with a reception in the vineyard, and then to the Terrace Restaurant for an evening of outdoor dining. Reservations and details on the website: www.missionhillwinery.com The next weekend, Poppadom’s is hosting a fun evening called Bollywood Night, an Indian-flavoured night with a special four-course meal, live Indian entertainment and door prize, on Labour Day, Monday, Sept. 5, beginning at 5:45 p.m. Reservations and details on the web site: www.poppadoms.ca.

Harvest-time Antipasto This is a wonderful appetizer or serve it for lunch as part of a cheese and pickle tray, dabbed on crackers. You may add baby shrimp or a can of tuna to it just prior to serving, but unless you have a pressure canner, do not add it to this mixture to can at home. 2 c. (500 ml) apple cider vinegar 1 c. (250 ml) packed brown sugar 1/4 c. (60 ml) worcestershire sauce 3 tbsp. (45 ml) pickling salt 16.5 oz. (468 ml) tomato paste 2 tsp. (10 ml) hot pepper sauce 3 c. (750 ml) cauliflower florets 2 c. (500 ml) green beans 2 c. (500 ml) zucchini 2 c. (500 ml) chopped onions 2 c. (500 ml) chopped red pepper 2 c. (500 ml) chopped green pepper 2 c. (500 ml) chopped carrots 2 c. (500 ml) chopped celery

6 cloves garlic 28 oz. (796 ml) ripe, black olives 1 tbsp. (15 ml) fresh basil 2 tsp. (10 ml) black pepper Combine first six ingredients in a large pot over medium-high heat and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile chop vegetables into very small pieces, about the size of an eraser on the end of a pencil, and mince garlic and basil. Add vegetables and garlic to the sauce and bring back to bubbling. Simmer for about five minutes, or until vegetables are just softened. Stir in remaining ingredients and bring back to bubbling. Ladle into sterilized canning jars, leaving a half-inch headspace. Seal with prepared rings and seals and process in a boiling water bath for 25 minutes. Makes about 14 cups, 7 pints or 3 litres.

Lainie's Spicy Salsa This is the best salsa I’ve ever tasted. It’s medium-spicy, so if you like it hotter, add more jalapenos or hotter habaneros to yours. Little jars of this make fabulous gifts. Use as a dip for corn or tortilla chips, a filling for Spanish omelettes or in natchos. Use meaty plum-type tomatoes like Roma. 10 lb. (4.5 kg) plum-type tomatoes 7 large cloves garlic 1/4 c. (60 ml) fresh parsley 2 tbsp. (30 ml) fresh basil 1 tbsp. (15 ml) fresh oregano 3 large onions 1 red pepper 1 green pepper 3-6 jalapeno peppers 6 oz. (156 ml) tomato paste 1/3 c. (75 ml) brown sugar 1/2 c. (125 ml) vinegar

1 tbsp. (15 ml) salt 2 tsp. (10 ml) black pepper 1 tsp. (5 ml) cumin 1 tsp. (5 ml) chili powder a bit of cilantro Skin tomatoes. (Pour boiling water over them and the skins can be easily slipped off. Don’t try and do them all at once.) Mince garlic and fresh herbs, chop tomatoes, onions and peppers. A food processor can be used. Add remaining ingredients and put it all in a large pot on medium heat. Cook down for three to four hours. Pack into pint jars and process in a boiling water bath for 20 minutes. Makes 10 pints.

Some simple guidelines for readers of Jude's Kitchen There are some basics about my cooking that you should know about in using the recipes created for Jude’s Kitchen. *I mean a large egg when a recipe calls for an egg *usually, butter and margarine are interchangeable *usually, salt and pepper is added to your taste *I generally use sea salt

*fresh ingredients top frozen or canned *organic products are my first choice *wherever possible, I use whole grains, not processed *include a variety of them, when possible *wherever possible, I use fresh herbs *fewer quantities of dried herbs are needed than fresh

*I use extra virgin olive oil *I use grapeseed or olive oil to cook with *I don’t deep fry *feel free to substitute. I do *have fun in the kitchen *encourage others to as well
