matcher, as part of the new BCLand Matching Program. This program connects farmers looking for land with landowners wanting to lease their land for farming. “This program will help young people enter into the agricultural industry, which might otherwise be a challenge because of the rising cost of land in some regions of BC,” said Lana Popham, Minister of Agriculture. “We’re helping British Columbians new to farming get access to land and in turn, boosting the province’s food security and increasing prosperity. Let’s get farmers onto the land, and let’s get farming!”Land matchers offer support and service ranging from hosting land-linking events to developing relationships with landowners, land seekers and community leaders, to facilitating negotiations and terms of leasing arrangements, with the support of a lawyer, between landowners and land leasers. “We are really excited to see the growing interest in programs that offer hands-on support for land access in B.C.” said Sara Dent, Young Agrarians BC’s program director. “New and young farmers need good, long-term land opportunities. Please reach out to us if you have farmland for lease.” The price of land in some parts of the province is making farming unattainable for many families, especially where some of the highest quality agricultural soil is found. Many established farmers aging out of the industry are trying to develop succession plans to ensure their land is kept in production. As well, farmland owners who are not farming are often motivated to support local food systems and provide an opportunity to a young farmerentrepreneur by leasing their land. Hailey Troock is the dedicated land matcher for the Columbia Basin. Her professional background in public policy, bilateral negotiations, environmental advocacy and business coaching, brings a level of expertise to the table that will help local communities within the Columbia Basin promote and strengthen sustainable and independent food systems. There are also dedicated land matchers for Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley, Vancouver Island and the Okanagan. The BC Land Matching Program aims to create opportunities for new farmers by supporting affordability in farmland and encouraging farming production while increasing access to locally grown foods for all British Columbians. The BC Land Matching Program is delivered by Young Agrarians, a program of FarmFolk CityFolk Society, with a $300,000 investment from the Government of BC and also draws support from municipal and regional partners such as the Columbia Basin Trust, Cowichan Valley Regional District, Metro Vancouver, Township of Langley, City of Surrey and the Bullitt Foundation, with inkind support provided by Cowichan Green Community. “Supporting and growing our local agricultural resources is a key value for Basin residents,” said Johnny Strilaeff, Columbia Basin Trust president and CEO. “The Land Matching Program will ensure that agricultural lands continue to be used, providing the region with business opportunities and increased availability for locally grown food.” ...continued on page 13

...continued from page 6 Grow BC is a mandate commitment of the Ministry of Agriculture that supports young farmers and food producers who are looking for a career in BC agriculture and addresses major challenges for new farmers such as gaining access to land in regions around the province. The BC Land Matching Program is part of the Province’s larger New Entrant Strategy, a framework for increasing the number of new and young farmers working in BC’s agriculture sector. Quick Facts: • In 2016, the average farmer was 55 years of age, while farmers under the age of 35 represented 9.1% of total farmers, up slightly from 8.2% in 2011. • 66% of farmers plan to retire in the next 10 years, but only one in 12 farm operators in Canada have succession plans. • Even though family farmers continue to get older, only one in 12 operators reported having a formal succession plan laying out how the operation will be transferred to the next generation of farmers. Corporations (mostly family corporations) are more likely to have succession plans (16.3%) than sole proprietorships (4.9%).

Dementia Education workshops The seasons are changing and this may be a good time to think about attending some of our dementia education workshops if you are caring for someone living with dementia. Please see our First Link Bulletin at www.tinyurl.com/ya3lkjcm for the full schedule of October – December workshops. Understanding Communication: Caregivers will gain an understanding of how communication is affected by Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. They will also have the opportunity to explore effective ways of facilitating communication and providing support to the person with dementia. Understanding Behaviour: Changes in the brain due to Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia often appear to us as changes in the person’s behaviour. Caregivers will learn how to understand behaviour as a form of communication and explore strategies for determining what the person with dementia might be trying to communicate. Both workshops are available in Castlegar, Grand Forks, Nelson and Trail. All sessions are free to attend, donations are appreciated. Preregistration is required as space is limited. To register, please call Karen at 1-855-301-6742 or email: kwaldal@alzheimerbc.org Submitted by Alzheimer Society of BC – West Kootenay

Identity theft and seniors With technology advancements and upgrades, there’s always something newer and more up-to-date to make our lives easier. Unfortunately, things that make our lives easier can also make life easier for criminals – notably, fraudsters and identity thieves. The Canada Safety Council and TELUS are teaming up to shed light on how seniors can keep themselves and their information safe, and out of the hands of criminals. The Competition Bureau of Canada estimates that seniors between the ages of 60-79 were scammed out of $94 million between January 2014 and December 2017. “Criminals tend to look for the path of least resistance and, too often, that passes through our most vulnerable sections of society,” said Jack Smith, president of the Canada Safety Council. “Seniors seem to be easy targets for a lot of scammers, which is why we feel it’s crucial that we do our part to keep the elderly as informed and prepared as possible to avoid being victimized.” When it comes to email scams, fortunately, there are some clues that can indicate if a message is legitimate or an attempted scam. Unlike professional emails, scam emails are often littered with spelling and/or grammatical errors. These messages also frequently come from unknown email addresses, do not address the recipient by name and feature low-quality images. Additionally, malicious messages may encourage recipients to take urgent actions, involving clicking on links or opening attachments, providing private information, or calling a specific phone number. Unless you’re absolutely certain
of a message’s origins, do not download attachments or click on links as they may contain viruses, spyware and malware. Refrain from using any method of contact shared in the message. Messages that appear malicious in nature should be reported to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre and deleted. Here are five other useful tips to keep your information out of the wrong hands: • Limit what you share online; do not give out your social insurance number online under any circumstances. • Don’t share personal information online, including credit card numbers and your address, unless you are on a secure website. To check, look for a padlock icon next to the site’s address. • Many scam calls are of the “cold call” variety. If you’re unsure, let the call go to voicemail. • If you are asked for information over the phone, ensure that you are the one who initiated the call and you know who you’re talking to. Be wary of incoming calls as you may be speaking with someone who is not affiliated with the organization they claim to be from. • Keep your digital household clean – ensure your software is kept up to date and deactivate/delete accounts or apps that are no longer in use. Visit the Canada Safety Council’s website for more safety information and TELUS Wise at https://wise.telus. com, a free digital safety education program.

Youth to benefit from continued support
Support for youth around the Columbia Basin will continue as Columbia Basin Trust renews the Basin Youth Network for three years with a budget of nearly $5 million. Established in fall 2015, the network serves youth in several ways. On the community level, the Trust provides funding to 28 community youth networks. These work to increase local activities and opportunities for youth aged 12 to 18, enabling them to learn new skills and engage more with each other and their communities. On the regional level, the Basin Youth Network brings together young people through regional or Basin-wide events like the Leadership Summit, hosted every two years. It also develops programs that address youth priorities such as leadership development and job readiness, and supports local youth coordinators and those who work with youth with resources like a mental health first aid course. Learn more at ourtrust.org/byn. All priorities—for the regional network and the
community ones—are identified with input from youth. In the first year alone of the regional network, over 6,000 youth provided their voices to identify priorities; this totalled 60 per cent of youth aged 12 to 18 in the Basin. In addition to the Basin Youth Network, the Trust helps youth build knowledge about financial literacy, entrepreneurship and more through JA British Columbia; offers awards and bursaries to high school and post-secondary students; and helps youth get employed through its wagesubsidy programs. Learn more at ourtrust.org/youth. Columbia Basin Trust supports the ideas and efforts of the people in the Columbia Basin. To learn more about the Trust’s programs and initiatives, and how it helps deliver social, economic and environmental benefits to the Basin, visit ourtrust.org or call 1-800-505-8998.

Janeen Mather, Community Futures Central Kootenay Small Business Training Centre Coordinator with the CFBC r 2018 Award for Excellence and Innovation
Community Futures Small Business Training Centre wins award Community Futures Central Kootenay (CFCK) is pleased to announce that the Small Business Training Centre won the Community Futures British Columbia (CFBC) Award for Excellence and Innovation at the 2018 CFBC Conference. The Small Business Training Centre, a service unique to CFCK, was recognized as a program that could benefit other Community Futures offices across the province. In 1993, CFCK staff identified that the self-employment clients and the broader business community
could use extra support with certain areas of business management. From this, the Small Business Training Centre emerged. Since then, over 4,000 people have accessed training on topics ranging from marketing, bookkeeping, human resources, and technology. In the the past year, over 970 people attended workshops, delivered by 15 instructors, in Nelson, Creston, and Nakusp. “Some of the workshops, such as Bookkeeping Basics, we’ve run for decades.” said Janeen Mather, Small Business Training Centre coordinator, “Frequently, we’ll introduce new workshops to address changes in how business is done in our community. For example, we offer several workshops on social media for business. We’ve partnered with ANKORS to offer Trans 101: Be An Ally to the Trans Community. And we’re always looking for workshops on technology that will benefit businesses.” “Small, local business is part of what makes Central Kootenay so unique.” said Andrea Wilkey, Executive Director of CFCK. “Training that supports businesses to adapt and thrive in a changing economy and social landscape is critical to their ongoing success.” The CFCK Small Business Training Centre has a busy autumn schedule coming up.

Physical activity is part of a healthy pregnancy Physical activity is a critical component of achieving a healthy pregnancy according to a new joint Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of Canada (SOGC) and Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology (CSEP) evidence-based pregnancy & physical activity guideline. Following the guideline can reduce the risk of pregnancyrelated illness such as depression by at least 25%, and the risk of developing gestational diabetes, high blood pressure and preeclampsia by 40%. To achieve clinically meaningful health benefits, the guideline encourages pregnant women without any medical restriction to accumulate at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity each week over a minimum of three days. For greater benefits being active every day and incorporating a variety of activities is encouraged. Activities can include walking, swimming, stationary cycling, and resistance training. View the guidelines at www.csep.ca/guidelines. “The guideline is a collation of the most thorough review of the literature around exercise in pregnancy ever published. Canadian women and their obstetric care providers now have reliable evidence that is exercise safe in pregnancy and improves pregnancy outcomes. Women in Canada, without contraindication, should be strongly encouraged to participate in exercise on a regular basis throughout pregnancy,” says Gregory Davies, SOGC, clinician and Guidelines Consensus Panel. Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology
