Brilliant global guitarist Colin Godbout plays at the Langham in Kaslo on Saturday, March 19 at 8 pm. Godbout’s global guitar concept is inspired by an LP he grew up listening to called Lenny Breau – Live! Recorded in 1969, the album was far ahead of its time in fusing American Jazz, French Impressionism, Indian Raga and Spanish Flamenco. “Highly entertaining and a joy to listen to� which is exactly why the Langham is the perfect place to hear this Canadian artist. An acoustically intimate setting which connects the artist with the audience, and vice versa. Hope to see you there. Advance tickets are $15 at Sunnyside Naturals and Willow Home Gallery, $18 at the door. For more information go to www.thelangham.ca or www.colingodbout.com

Director’s Corner

At the recent Electoral Area Directors forum in Richmond I learned that I was one of 188 local government representatives elected from a rural area in BC and that there are 1,012 elected local government representatives altogether. 107 of us attended the annual meeting this year, discussing small water systems, dikes and the fact that we would like the same decision making powers at a Regional District level as those granted municipalities. I will report more on the RDCK and Area D and Kaslo/Area D shared budget for 2011 in the March/April Director’s Corner. 1. Health Care Capital Funding in BC At their February 10, 2011 Board meeting the RDCK Directors passed the following resolution for consideration by the Association of Kootenay Boundary Local Governments (AKBLG) at their AGM in April, with a view to having the Union of BC Municipalities (UBCM) considering it at their September AGM, if AKBLG passes it: Whereas the provincial government has now created capital projects priority criteria that grants up to twenty bonus points to regional hospital boards that are prepared to fund up to 90% of capital project costs; And Whereas such policies will create a twotier medical facilities situation in BC between those regional hospital boards that can afford to raise more capital via higher property taxes and those boards that cannot; Therefore Be It Resolved that UBCM register a strong protest with the provincial government, especially the Minister of Health, with regard to ongoing attempts by the provincial government to download its capital funding responsibilities, via insufficient funding of Health Authorities, onto the backs of property taxpayers, when they already pay for this funding via income taxes. On February 17, 2011, for example, the Globe and Mail reported in an article on the current provincial budget that: “A Finance Ministry table shows health care spending as accounting for 8 per cent of the provincial economy in 2013, compared to 8.2 per cent last year” (Crosscheck, Robert Matas, p2). It is time, long overdue, that the BC provincial government stopped downloading its responsibilities onto the backs of property taxpayers. 2. Small Water System Working Group Reports At the Electoral Area (EA) Directors Forum, I and four other Directors from Vancouver Island, Fraser Valley, Okanagan and Cariboo reported that the Small Water System Working Group was discussing whether to recommend to the provincial government that:

1. Micro water systems with 25 or fewer domestic connections should become self-regulating and report bacteriological status only four times a year. 2. Small water systems with 26 to 125 domestic connections would remain under the existing regulations, but could opt for decentralized treatment using point-of-entry or point-of-use devices. 3. Water systems with 126 connections and above would be expected to use centralized treatment under existing regulations. 4. All commercial and public facilities, such as restaurants, community halls, etc. would be expected to treat their water accordingly. The above numbers are only interim as a lot of work needs to be done discussing with representatives from the Ministries of Health, Environment, Community Services and the Health Authorities how the regulations could be changed, so that cost of treating water could be in accord with reducing risk of individuals contracting a waterborne illness. I will keep you advised as information is made public from our ongoing discussions. 3. Who Should Be Responsible For Dikes? At the EA Directors Forum a representative of the new Ministry of Natural Resource Operations was strongly advised that Regional Districts do not want to take on the responsibility for the building of new protective dikes and the 1,800 currently identified “Orphan Dikes”. According to the Ministry website, for example, the protective dike along Cooper Creek is 15 metres long and currently has no agency responsible for it. If the RDCK were to agree to accept responsibility for this dike, we would then have to set up a service area into which all adjacent property taxpayers would have to pay taxes. The province would then require the RDCK to bring this dike up to, as yet, undetermined provincial standards, at a cost that has not yet been indicated either. The Ministry has so far identified 14 dikes that it would like to make the RDCK responsible for and one of my colleagues on the RDCK Board has 46 kilometres of dikes along the Kootenay River. I can understand the provincial government making a case for local property owners to cover a portion of the cost through property taxes. However I also note that we all pay income and sales taxes and various fees to the provincial government, so it is not as if the government is providing a free diking service. What I most strongly object to is the provincial government setting up a province-wide standard and then expecting local government to enforce that standard and collect the taxes to pay for enforcement. I was very pleased when the overwhelming majority of the 107 delegates to the EA Directors forum joined me in standing and saying “no thank you” to the province’s offer to take these dikes over.

Board to provide 40% of the capital towards purchase of defibrilators for First Responders in Area D. This request was denied on the grounds that it was not for a hospital facility. Since that time I have consistently voted for the Hospital Board to only fund within its mandate, so I was really pleased when the Board agreed to remove three requests from the IHA’s 2011 budget request that were for projects in non-hospital facilities. On the other hand I was also pleased when the Board agreed to my proposal to add $1,000,000 to a capital reserve in 2011, which will cost each property owner an additional $6.29 for each $100,000 of property assessment. Over the last decade the Board’s budget has varied quite considerably, whereas with a reserve the Board will be a able to withdraw from the reserve and hopefully avoid having to borrow as much and pay so much interest. 5. Water Stewardship The second meeting between representatives of the Kaslo and District Community Forest Society (KDCFS), the Area D Advisory Planning Commission and myself was held on February 21 at the Society’s offices. We reviewed maps and possible streams where we could undertake streamflow and water quality monitoring, as a means to better understand how climate change could impact future water allocation from those sites. I am now trying to determine if I can utilize Community Works funding so I could partner with KDCFS. If and when we have funding secured then we will begin the process of community consultations. 6. This and That At the February 24 Board meeting I reappointed Ken Hart as a Commissioner to the Area D Advisory Planning Commission and also added Annick Hall too. I am still looking to appoint a Commissioner-atLarge from the Fletcher Creek-WoodburyAinsworth Area. The next meeting of the Commission will be Tuesday, March 15 at 1.00 pm at the United Church Hall in Kaslo. Mark Healy, Corienne Greenlaw, Regoer Leroux and Cheryl Hillier were reappointed to the Glacier Creek Regional Park Commission until December, 31 2012. I have recommended to RDCK staff that this year’s CBT Kaslo/Area D Community Initiatives meeting be held at JV Humphries on Thursday, April 14 at 7.00 pm, and that the CBT Affected Areas meeting be held on Wednesday, April 13 at 7.00 pm at the Argenta Community Hall. 7.

4. Hospital Board Budget The West Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital Board is responsible for providing 40% of the capital for purchase of medical equipment within hospitals. Shortly after I was elected I asked the

Help us give these pets shelter while they wait for their forever homes

6 most asked questions Will I be stuck with the pet if it isn’t adopted?

No. First, we have been very successful in finding homes for all our animals. But if the adoption takes longer than expected or wanted, we will move the pet to another foster home. We are a no-kill organization.

Isn’t it too hard to let go of the pet? While it’s always difficult to say goodbye to a friend, it is much easier if you are happy with the pet’s new home. KAAP involves you in the adoption process, and you feel good about your foster pet’s future.

Won’t it tie me down from traveling?

What will it cost me? Only your precious non-renewable resource – your time. KAAP provides all the supplies for the pet. Anything you wish to donate will receive a tax receipt, as we are a registered charity.

What qualifications do I need? A big heart, a home (or permission from your landlord to foster pets), a love and patience for animals, and time to spend with them. Let us know if you have any special skills or experience with animals, their training, or medical care.

What if I need help? Call a KAAP volunteer any time to discuss any concerns.

FOSTERING HELPS SAVE LIVES

We have helped over 500 homeless pets in the past 3 years. But we can’t do it without you!

No. Just give KAAP your schedule, and we will make it fit with our foster pets’ needs. We are looking for weekend-only and short-term foster homes as well, to help fill these gaps.

Kaslo’s 1st Annual Nordic Ski-A-Thon A Sunny Success The newly formed Kaslo Trailblazers Nordic Ski Club held a Cross Country Ski-A-Thon on February 20 along the historic Wagon Road from Fish Lake to Kaslo. The event was to raise money and public awareness for their club’s family focused programs, and the club’s ambitious new project called the Mt. Buchanan Wilderness Recreation Area. This area is proposed to be a local, affordable and family friendly all season/ multi use area which will welcome people of all ages, fitness levels and financial backgrounds, residents and visitors alike, to enjoy the spectacular outdoor environment of the Kootenay region of Kaslo. Organizer Janis Lampimaki said of the Ski-AThon, “It was an enormous success, with 29 participants ranging in ages 5 to 70. We still have a few pledges to come in, but it looks like we are going to reach our $2,000 fundraising goal. Thank you all for your support - we live in such an incredible community!” Shon Neufeld from Kootenay Mountain Sports drove the Kaslo Sufferfest van, and Val Koenig from Kaslo Trailbazers provided a second shuttle van to transport skiers to the starting point and pick them up at any of the stopping points along the way. It was a perfect, sunny day for a ski, and the spectacular conditions and views enticed nearly all the participants to ski the entire 28 km.

Wolf Biologist Offers Presentation Wolves have found their place in folklore and fairy tale, mythology and mysticism. Finding their place in the landscape has been more challenging. Biologist Bob Hayes (now retired) served as the Yukon’s wolf biologist for nearly twenty years, and in that time developed a first-hand understanding of the wolf ’s place in the North, from predator to prey. He chronicled his experience in his book Wolves of the Yukon, released in 2010. Hayes will offer a slide show and talk Tuesday, March 8 at 7:30 pm in the Nelson Library, 602 Stanley Street. As part of his job, Hayes oversaw the culling of 849 wolves. The experience has given him a unique perspective on human efforts to curb Canada’s wolf population, a practice that goes back many centuries to when Yukon First Nations tribes sought to reduce competition for big game. This spring, the Yukon is revisiting its wolf management plan, and so the release of Hayes’ book is timely.

Wolves of the Yukon explores the natural history of the Yukon since the last ice age through the eyes of the wolf. It describes the importance of the wolf since the Klondike gold rush and asks some compelling questions about how we will manage large carnivores, big game, and hunting in the 21st century. In his work as a biologist, Hayes has a scientist’s understanding of this beautiful predator, shared through this multimedia presentation.

woman is fertile and infertile based on her three primary fertility signals: waking body temperature, cervical fluid and cervix changes. The method can be used to prevent or achieve pregnancy and to gauge reproductive health. According to Contraceptive Technology, Fertility Awareness has a 2% method failure rate as birth control, the same as the Pill and more effective than a barrier method. The course is taught in three sessions, once a month for three months. Students learn and integrate the information cumulatively over the months. During the first session, students learn about a woman’s primary fertility signals and how to chart them accurately. Next month, you learn the rules to prevent or achieve pregnancy and in the following class, how to use your FAM charts to gauge reproductive health. Class meets on Saturdays, March 26, April 23 and May 28 from 2 pm to 4:30 pm. The entire course costs $75 to $90 per woman or couple. The instructor, Kate Guthrie, has used the method for seven years and taught it for four. According to Dr. Justina Trott, former President of the American College of Women’s Health Physicians, “For

women who want to take responsibility for their own wellness and understand the body’s rhythms and their connection to nature’s wider cycles, Fertility Awareness is an essential life skill.� For women and couples, it can only serve to deepen communication about and trust in one’s sexuality.

Permaculture Course “Permaculture helped me understand that everything is a living organism. I now use permaculture principles in everything; with my family, with people I work with and in running our business, in my garden and even in how I set up my living space,� says Rachel Ross, Non-Violent Communications Facilitator. Are you ready for permaculture? Do you believe in these ethics on which this movement is founded? Care for the earth? Care for people? Share the abundance? Then come to the Fry Creek Permaculture Course from Thursday, March 10 to Tuesday, March 22 in beautiful Johnson’s Landing. The principles of permaculture are based on nature, where everything gives to everything else to create the cycle of life, each part strengthening the whole. It is a return to indigenous wisdom, to a deep awareness of patterns and connections in our relationships with all things. You learn how to “close the loops,� to reduce waste, to store energy and reuse resources many times over to create efficiency and reduce dependence on outside inputs. LEARN TO: Co-create designs that conserve water, energy and time; Integrate multi-functional and regenerative designs for living; Learn to grow healthy food and nurture the land; Extend the growing season with hightech, low-cost designs; Deepen your connection with the wisdom of nature; Develop self-reliance and save money on food and energy. For more information call 250-366-4395, 250-352-3449, or email: susangrimble@telus.net. Phone for details if you are interested in a 6 hour mushroom workshop.

+BO ƒP 'ŊC Shirley was born to Fred and Gladys Lindstrom 88 years ago. She grew up in the Salmo-Erie area. After her schooling, Shirley moved to the Coast where she lived and worked for many years. She returned to Slocan City and owned Shirley’s Coffee Shop for several years. She moved to Ruskin and then Aggasiz, where she had many friends. Her last years were spent at the Mountain Lake Senior Community in Nelson where she received exceptional care. She is survived by her sisters, Naomi Lindstrom of San Francisco, and Carol Mousel and family of Reno. She will be remembered by her stepbrothers Bob and Jim Barkley, and stepsister Anne Quenneville and their families, as well as her many old friends. Donations in her memory may be made to: The Southern Interior Bluebird Trail Society, Box 494, Oliver, BC V0H 1T0

Carol Ann (Bonde) McDougall March 16th, 1939 ~ February 6th, 2011 Carol Ann (Bonde) McDougall was born on March 16, 1939. An energetic, outgoing person, she was well liked by all those who knew her and called her friend. She was born and raised by her parents, Christen and Lilian Bonde, in Trail. She had many friends and family there. Carol always liked helping others and this most likely is why she sought a career as a nurse. She started working as a nurse at the Nelson Hospital and it was at this time that she met Robert McDougall. They started dating and were married on November 14, 1964. They raised two sons, Walter and Camron, and spent a happy life together. She always enjoyed doing things as a family, like going camping and traveling together. It would always be the highlight of the summer, for all of us. She was always very active in many different fundraisers within the community, ALS being first and foremost.

Carol fought a lengthy battle with cancer but remained positive throughout. She had an indomitable spirit and would not let life get her down, which came as no surprise to those who knew her. She always wore a giant smile and had as much fun as she possibly could from every event in life. Carol passed away peacefully on February 6, 2011, with her family present. She will be greatly missed by all of her family and friends. She is survived by her husband Robert, sons Walter & Camron and daughters-in-law Anne & Sheryl, grandchildren Shona & Callum and Paige & Brianna, brother and sister-inlaw Chris & Jackie, sister and brotherin-law Catherine & Clarence, nieces and nephews Laurie & Terri and Kurt, Chris & Kevin, and many more family members than can be listed here. My apologies to those who have not been listed. As per Carol’s wishes, there will be a Celebration of Life for her in April, so those who have to travel can do so in relative safety. She always thought of others before herself. She will be missed more than words can say. We love you Carol, and we always will.
