EK SPCA gets $84,000 grant

T R E V O R C R AW L E Y A Cranbrook family is reeling after

thieves stole a large amount of tools and power equipment from a cabin out in Moyie, which they then set on fire as they fled.

On Tuesday morning, the cabin, which is adjacent to Cotton Tie Creek, was broken into and the tools and equipment were loaded into a vehicle that exited out of a driveway at the top of the Moyie bluffs.

In addition to the tools, the thieves also tried to steal a side-by-side ATV by cutting the ignition out and prying the hood up, according to

Brad Scriver, as the cabin belongs to his mother.

“The cabin’s pretty well hidden from the road, it’s a little ways off the railroad tracks,” said Scriver. “It defi-nitely seems to me that someone knew exactly where they were going.

“It’s very odd because it’s one of those situations where if you didn’t know the cabin was there, you prob-ably wouldn’t have found it.”

As the culprits left, they also set fire to the place, which has caused in excess of $50,000, Scriver added.

“We know it was after midnight and before 6 a.m. but other than that, we don’t know how big the fire was and how long it was burning,” Scriver said. “We just got to a smouldering pile of plastic around 8 in the morn-ing.”

Some of the stolen items include: DeWalt 18-volt drill, saw and sawzall, a Makita 18-volt drill, hammer drill, saw, sawzall, Ryobi hand tools and a two-foot DeWalt table saw, among many other tools and equipment.

It’s an especially tough blow, con-sidering the family has invested a lot

of money into the recreational prop-erty.

“Despite the money, what they’ve taken from my mom…I haven’t slept for a day,” said Scriver.

Scriver detailed the thefts on Face-book in a post that has gone viral and Cranbrook RCMP is investigating the situation. Scriver is offering a $1,000 reward for any information that will lead to arrests.

Cabin robbed, burnedContinued from page 1

A picture of the interior of a cabin near Moyie that was extremely vandal-ized early Tuesday morning

enue as part of the 2016 road program.

CAO Wayne Staudt noted that the Pinecrest roads are not identified as high priority on the Integrated Infrastruc-ture Capital plan.

“These are identified by potential failure down the road, impor-tance to the community and so forth,” Staudt said, adding that the Pinecrests streets are not listed to get paved sur-faces in the next five years currently.

He noted there is a significant amount of roadwork — about $48 million in the next five years —that would be up before the paving of 27A and 29th Avenue South, without the resolution.

Coun. Norma Blissett was concerned about the motion.

“I realize there are other areas in the city that don’t have paved road services and some don’t have sewer and water services,” Blissett said. “I’m not sure that we should set this area aside as a priority over

other roads that are also gravelled.”

She noted 18th Street South, 19th Street South up 11th and 12th Ave-nue South.

“I’m afraid of making this a priority outside of the asset management plan. I think we should go with the asset man-agement plan as priority number one,” she said. “I’m not sure that these roads should be set as a high priority outside of that.”

Coun. Wesly Graham said it makes sense in terms of this year’s roads program.

“When we were look-ing at doing a bunch of paving we were looking for low-hanging fruit,” Graham said. “We were looking for roads that could be resurfaced that had decent water and sewer underneath it, and to the best of our knowledge we wouldn’t be digging up in a cou-ple years time.”

Graham said from looking at these roads he would consider them safe judging from the

comments about the in-frastructure work done in 2010.

Coun. Ron Popoff said he would support the resolution if the in-tent is not to give favou-ritism to these roads, but rather to add them to the list of those being con-sidered for work in 2016.

Blissett worried that they were being priori-tized over others, and that’s how it will come across to the public.

Graham said it makes sense to look at this be-cause it is already slated for gravel work.

“If we’re going to spend upwards of $100,000 or whatever in gravel, maybe we should just have a look at these roads, because they are slated for some work, so if they are worth invest-ing a bit of money into it, why not look at investing a bit more over the long term,” Graham said.

Mayor Lee Pratt said he agreed with both Graham and Blissett.

“But I tend to think if we’re specifically nam-ing these outside of the

asset management plan, then possibly we’re giv-ing these people a false sense of hope,” Pratt said. “Personally I’ve driven down those roads and quite frankly there are streets in Cranbrook that are traveled much more frequently by many more people that are in worse shape than these two roads.”

Erik Sharpe, director of Engineering ex-plained the new gravel surface is planned to move away from the two-inch minus, which was to form a solid enough surface for fu-ture road work.

Popoff asked for clar-ification on whether this moves outside the asset management plan.

Staudt oblidged. “My interpretation

would be, as Coun. Blis-sett has mentioned, we wouldn’t be bringing you forward in 2016, 27A Avenue and 29th Ave-nue as a priority road if not for this resolution,” Staudt said. “We’re mov-ing outside the asset management plan.”

Arne PetryshenA resolution that

would make the resur-facing of 27A and 29th Avenue South in the Pinecrest area of Cran-brook a possibility in 2016 caused quite a bit of discussion at Monday night’s council meeting.

Coun. Isaac Hockley put forward the resolu-tion which passed by a 5-2 vote. Councillors Ron Popoff and Norma Blissett were opposed to the resolution.

The resolution read that in February of 1971, the City of Cranbrook

extended its boundaries to include Pinecrest with the installation of “City Standard” sewer ser-vices to be paid entirely by Pinecrest residents. At that time, the city did not require water ser-vices or road repair to be upgraded to city stan-dards. The residents of Pinecrest and the city participated in a mutual relationship in which taxes were paid in ex-change for city services since 1973. On April 12, 2010, council directed replacement of the water services on 27A

and 29th Avenue South and added that “council shall consider paving 27A and 29th Avenue in future years, such con-sideration to be made in the context of city wide priorities and the direc-tion arising from the asset management study.”

Hockley’s resolution asks that council direct city staff to defer and carry forward the 2015 gravel resurface project for 27A and 29th Avenue and bring it back in 2016 for council to consider paving 27A and 29th Av-

“We have one of the largest cat populations in the province, so that includes feral and free-roaming cats and they just keep reproduc-ing because they don’t get spayed and neu-tered,” said Baker.

“...One female cat and her offspring can produce more than 200 kittens within one year. The grant allows us to move forward and make a big difference in the region.”

Last year, 754 ani-mals entered the care of the BC SPCA in Cran-brook. Of those, 523 were cats or kittens, and 256 of those kittens were from unwanted lit-ters.

The East Kootenay branch can set up ap-pointments for spaying and neutering cats for the public. The cost is usually $200, but if it’s a financial hardship, the EK B.C. SPCA will still do it but request a $40 donation.

In addition to the grant, the East Kootenay branch is also wrapping up some renovations to the building just outside of Cranbrook.

“What we did is we redid some of our cat rooms, just to make it more healthier environ-ment, so we installed proper ventilation and we’ve also put in proper stainless steel cages in-stead of the old wooden ones and they’re a big-ger size so it’s better welfare for the animals,” said Baker.

New flooring, built new walls, bigger rooms, and some proper ani-mal cleaning areas were also installed. While that project still has a little bit of work to go, Baker is also eying the next step for animal care in the building.

“Our next goal will be to redo the dog ken-nel area,” she said. “Right now it’s not up to standards for proper welfare for dogs, so we would like to put in plexiglass kennels, which is a huge expense and redo the insulation and walls within there as well, but we’re look-ing at a pretty hefty price tag of close to $100,000, so it’s going to be a big challenge to raise those funds, but I’m pretty sure we’re

going to be able to do it.”Funding for the cat

rooms came in the form of $24,000 from the Community Initiative funds of the Columbia

Basin Trust and RDEK, the City of Cranbrook and the City of Kimber-ley. The provincial of-fice of the B.C. SPCA also kicked in $16,000

and there were many donations from local private citizens and businesses.

“It takes the whole community to tackle

such a large issue, and we couldn’t do it alone,” Baker said, adding that in addition to PetSmart Charities of Canada, the BC SPCA is grateful to

Steeples Veterinary Clinic, Tanglefoot Vet, Cranbrook Vet, Koote-nay Vet, EK Cares, B-104 & The Drive, and the City of Cranbrook.

VICTORIA - British Columbia’s energy and mines minister has ap-pointed a panel to figure out how to prevent min-ing disasters similar to the Mount Polley spill.

Bill Bennett says a committee will deter-mine how to best enact seven recommendations from an expert report into last year’s tailings

pond breach in the Cari-boo region.

The January report found the dam was built on a glacial lake deposit, which caused the weak-ened structure to burst and gush 24 million cubic metres of waste and water into salm-on-bearing lakes and rivers.

Bennett says the committee is already

working to address four of the report’s recom-mendations, including those around improving engineering practices and strengthening regu-latory operations.

B.C.’s chief inspector of mines will lead the panel, which will include representatives who were nominated by First Nations, mine labour unions and industry.

ARne PetRyShen

The City of Cran-brook will be looking at a new proclamation policy sometime in the future. At the moment council does not have a policy on how to decide which proclamations to decide which proclamations are in its best interest to sup-port and which may not be. The proclamations come from organiza-tions and groups all over

Canada, from local all the way up to national.

Coun. Wesley Gra-ham had stated in a past meeting that he worried some of the proclama-tion requests fall beyond the scope of the munici-pality.

Graham’s resolution read:

“Whereas Council has the discretion to support an organization

through its approval of proclamation requests; and Whereas proclama-tion requests are being received from increas-ingly diverse back-grounds, interests and cultures; and Whereas it would aid Council in its consideration of procla-mation requests to have a guiding policy in order to make the process fair and equitable for all;

Now, therefore be it re-solved that City staff be directed to prepare a policy around proclama-tions to be presented to Council for review, dis-cussion and consider-ation.”

Coun. Ron Popoff noted that one of the possible outcomes of the review is council could decide to stop doing proclamations.

Members from the Cranbrook Fire and Emergency Services were present-ed with medals for Exemplary Service, as well as the Long Service Medal, at the Monday, June 22 council meeting. The Exemplary Service Medals are awarded federally and recognize the completion of 20 years of service in a Canadian fire service. The recipients are Darcy Kennedy, Jack Magro, Dean Eldred and Gord Yee. Darcy Kennedy was also awarded the provin-cial Long Service Medal for completing 25 years of both volunteer and paid firefighting.

CAROLYN GRANTIt is a celebration of solidarity and understand-

ing from one first nation to another. Each year on Aboriginal Day, the Ktunaxa people welcome those who have found refuge in Canada to their tradition-al territory. This year, many of the Karen refugees from Burma, who now live in Kimberley and Cran-brook, were welcomed, some for the first time.

“Many Ktunaxa folks were interested to hear the history of the Karen people from Burma and to understand how they came to be here living on traditional Ktunaxa territory,” said Shauna Jimenez of Friends of Burma.

Here is what the MC, Carol Alexander said as she lead the welcome of the Karen refugees to tra-ditional territory of the Ktunaxa.

“The Karen people of Burma are an ethnic, first-nation group inside Burma that the Burmese government has been oppressing for 40 years. The Burmese government frequently burns down their villages, destroys their crops, and enslaves these people - women and men.

“Many Karen people flee these attacks and cross the border into Thailand, where they live in refugee camps. Most of the Karen people have been in refugee camps for almost 20 years now.”

East Kootenay Friends of Burma is a group of volunteers in Kimberley, Cranbrook, Creston and Nelson, who sponsor some Karen refugees to this area every year. This means they raise enough funds to cover their first year in Canada and help them settle into the new culture here.

“We believe an important aspect for all new-comers to understand is that they now live upon traditional territory of the Ktunaxa people,” Jimenez said. “EK Friends of Burma hopes to build links with former refugees and Ktunaxa people in build-ing understanding of each other as they are both ethnic first-nations groups that have experienced cultural genocide.

“This link is very important and the EK Friends of Burma would like to thank the Ktunaxa people for welcoming these newcomers as they seek safety on your traditional territory.”

Refugee advocates across Canada, belonging to the Canadian Council for Refugees, realize the im-portance of providing newcomers with accurate information about First Nation’s territory while building links with First Nations and former refu-gees, Jimenez said.

No dinosaur nor trilobite was hurt, dam-aged or even disturbed during the writing of this column.

My neighbour, Jeff, caught me nap-ping on the lawn the other day. I wasn’t supposed to be standing

there napping; I was supposed to be get-ting indoors, dumping my day-pack and getting out of my boots, but I must have switched off. Jeff had been recounting in detail the story of his recent stay in the U.S.A. and I must have lost interest in the day.

We happy-go-lucky and daft old men who think that they can still climb moun-tains are prone to drifting off but, eventually, I’d slipped indoors and, discarding all the gear in a heap, had just examined my poor, battered old feet when the front door bell rang. Muttering obscen-ities, I crawled upstairs and there was Ald-ous, the neighbour from across the way. He wanted me to explain all about the theory of evolution. I rubbed my weary eyes and said, “You want the short version or the full lec-ture.”

Refreshing myself from the fridge, I waded into battle. “It’s not a theory, Al,” I explained, collapsing on to the lower stair, “It’s a fact; it really happened and still is.” I was wondering what a shower and an early night would feel like.

“Bet you sprayed your lawn with

weed-killer, right? Bet you didn’t get all the dandelions. The ones that didn’t die were already immune to the weed-killer so they survived and will produce seeds that will also grow into plants that that are immune. That’s evolution for you.”

I could see that Aldous was tiring but I didn’t offer him a seat. My legs were starting to stiffen up.

“But what about the dinosaurs?” said Aldous. “Aren’t we descend-ed from them?”

Here we go, I thought, wondering if I might actual-ly die and become extinct myself, right there on the lower stairs.

“Okay! Bet the wife tries to keep the kitchen counters

clean, using some disinfectant. Well, it doesn’t work, see. Some of the bugs are al-ready immune to the stuff and they’ll go on raising families of bugs that are immune and take over the place.”

Aldous didn’t believe any old bug could beat his wife when it came to competing in the kitchen, but he was tiring, just the way my students did in days of yore. “What about Adam and Eve?” he asked, coming back to life.

“All people, all over the world have sto-ries their ancestors made up about how hu-mans came into being, Al. The Old Testa-ment is just one version. But life on this earth of ours began millions of years ago and started with some water, some sunlight

and an algae-like life starting and spread-ing.”

But my neighbour was anxious to get on to the dinosaur bit. He’d apparently seen all three Jurassic Park films.

“Some of those early life-forms survived but most of them became extinct. That seems to be one of the rules of nature: ex-tinction; survival is rare.” I could feel myself becoming extinct right there.

“D’you know that kangaroos are left-handed?” said Al suddenly, trying to stay one up on me. “I seen that on TV.”

“They live in the southern hemisphere,” I improvised, “Everything’s left-handed down there and, besides, they never made it to Noah’s Ark.” I heaved myself to my feet and edged towards the door, backing up Aldous. “Anyway, if you dig down through layers of sedimentary rock you’ll find the fossils of extinct creatures and, the deeper you go, the older they’ll be. Millions of years old, most of them.”

“You reckon I’ve got Tyrannosaurus Rex in my yard? My cousin over in Alberta found one. His wife reckoned it was the bones of their old dog, but he’s pretty excit-ed,” said Al.

“One of them’ll probably end up in that fancy Royal Tyrrell museum,” I said, then closed the front door firmly.

To almost quote a vaguely familiar adage: Immediately you are born you begin to die; explaining evolution to your neighbour when you are pooped accelerates the pro-cess exponentially.

Letters to the editorUnprovoked dog attack

To the lady whose dog attacked our golden retriever in the Community Forest on the morning of Tuesday, June 23, 2015,

We understand dogs can be unpre-dictable but for your dog to run at our dog from a distance and viciously attack him for no reason should raise serious concern for you. Fortunately for you and your dog, this unprovoked attack didn’t result in major injury to our dog. Next time you might not be so lucky.

This was very upsetting for my parents who were walking our well-disciplined dog. If you cannot control your dog 100 per cent of the time then walking off leash is not an option for you. We expect the next time we run into each other, your dog will be on leash.

greyhound route FI was deeply concerned to learn that

Greyhound Canada has filed an applica-tion to eliminate the Greyhound bus route F through the Columbia Valley. It would seem that such decisions are made without any concern for those of us who live in rural areas with large distances between communities.

I suppose that the rationale is that most people drive, but not everyone does, particularly the elderly, the handi-capped and those who cannot afford to own vehicles.

One of the drawbacks of living in re-gions such as these is isolation. This pro-posal would contribute to that isolation.

A second point is that of transporting goods between the communities by Greyhound, which is relatively cheap and convenient.

A final point — and I consider this by far the most important one — is that some people who have to travel to Cal-gary may have no other means of trans-portation, and cannot afford to fly. Such a

decision could create immense distress to those who need it the least.

I sincerely hope that the application by Greyhound Canada to the B.C. Pas-senger Transportation Board will be re-scinded.

root Cause analysisI am a Kootenay Ice season ticket hold-

er since their arrival here and that will not change.

Regardless of ownership, any business must be run on profit-based principles, reinvestment and improvement — the Ice cannot be an exception. In my opinion, the team has had great success on the ice and challenges to the point of failure on the marketing and customer service side. The scouting, coaches, ownership and management have done an incredible job of putting successful teams on the ice, year after year, and need to be commend-ed for those successes. We appreciate the players’ hard work ethic and dedication and enjoy watching their growth and im-provement.

When I look at the attendance records across the WHL, OHL and QMJHL there are quite a few problem teams and market areas; low and/or fluctuating attendance. I find it interesting to compare teams; their ownership and population base. Take the Moncton Wildcats, who have an approximate 4,400 per game; draw from a within city population of 64,000 and in-cluding the surrounding metropolis, 139,000. The Ice draw from a Cranbrook base population of 19,000 or within close rural of 26, 000 and inclusive of driving within 150 km in any direction a base of 75,000 people.The Ice’s attendance has dropped from a high of 3,635 in 2000/01 season to now around 2,230 per game. It is time the CHL President, WHL Commis-sioner and Kootenay Ice ownership step up and takes responsibility for a root cause analysis on why there has been a 1,400 person drop in game attendance; it’s not just simply because of economic down-turns or fan apathy. Putting a good prod-

uct on the ice is not good enough; more focus, energy and leadership is required on the marketing/customer service side.

The team is the Kootenay Ice, not the Cranbrook Ice; we collectively need the support of all towns, cities and rural areas within the Kootenays and this will not be done at the expense of other junior hockey clubs in the area. The Kootenay Ice have had the benefit of many fine volunteers, but it is not up to those volunteers and committees to take the lead in putting the Ice on track for profitability and to support the CHL organizational structure. I sug-gest that the WHL Commissioner and Ice ownership have more focus on being visi-ble in the community, get to know the businesses better and more importantly the customers at the rink; it’s not up to the customer to know you, it’s the other way around!

Other recent letters to the editor sug-gested town hall meetings; this is a good idea; expect some heat but if facilitated well could prove productive. I note that Prince George has seen a marked im-provement in their attendance with what-ever changes have been made. I also won-der why over the course of 17 years that we could not have more local talent on our team.

I find the timing and comments of the Commissioner during the playoff run, re-cent article in the Cranbrook Townsman suspect. I challenge Mr. Branch, Mr. Robi-son and Kootenay Ice ownership to con-duct a root cause analysis, show more leadership and put an action plan in place to work cooperatively with municipal gov-ernments, local businesses, volunteer committees and the customer, the citizens and fans to turn this franchise around at the gate.

Lastly, beyond the expectation of a profitable hockey club, the real benefac-tors are the future players, who under the mentorship and guidance become con-tributors to society and only two to five per cent, at best, of them will earn their living in pro hockey.

R ecreation is an import-ant part of being physi-cally and mentally

healthy. It is well known and supported by evidence that physical inactivity is one of the biggest risk factors for chronic disease such as heart disease and diabetes. Recreation also helps us reduce stress and anxi-ety. But did you also know that recreation plays a key role in the health of our communities?

Social isolation is also a risk factor for chronic disease. Indi-viduals and communities are

healthier when members feel connected to each other. In fact, social connectedness is just as important for our health as diet and exercise.

Recreation offers opportuni-ties for a community to con-nect. Local governments can play a key role in supporting and creating opportunities for social connectedness in our communities. Community members can encourage and support local governments to create policies, planning, pro-grams, and community design that promote social connected-

ness.Recreational activities can

be physical, social, cultural or artistic. Community infrastruc-ture such as parks, libraries, bi-cycle pathways, playing fields and community centres are just a few examples of how local governments can support the health of its citizens and the social connectedness of a com-munity.

June is Parks and Recreation Month the perfect time to start including more recreation in our everyday lives. We are espe-cially fortunate in B.C. to have

incredible open spaces and beautiful parks to explore natu-ral forms of recreation in all seasons. So grab a neighbour or two and get out there and enjoy!

Providing opportunities for recreation is one of several ways citizens and governments can help create a healthy com-munity. If you want to learn more visit PlanH (http://planh.ca).

Have fun! Julie Steffler is a Community

Plenty to look forward to as Ice reveal 2015-16 scheduleHome opener set for Friday, Sept. 25 with Calgary Hitmen visiting Western Financial Place

Chris Pullen Photo/CranbrookPhoto.Com

The Kootenay Ice, along with forward Luke Philp (above), will host the Calgary Hitmen to open the 2015-16 WHL season.

Taylor rocc aSports Editor

The Kootenay Ice, along with the Western Hockey League, re-leased regular season schedules for the 2015-16 WHL campaign Wednesday morning and there are plenty of highlights to look for-ward to for hockey fans in Cranbrook.

The Ice will open the WHL’s 50th season with a home-and-home se-ries against the Calgary Hitmen, a longtime Central Division rival. The Hitmen visit Cran-brook Friday, Sept. 25, before returning home to host the Ice Saturday, Sept. 26.

“We’re thrilled to be preparing for our 18th season here and can’t wait to get started,” said Chris Wahl, Kootenay Ice director of sales and public relations, Wednesday morning.

“We’re excited. It’s a long off-season, but now having that blue-print in place of where you’re going to be and when over the course of the season, people can start marking it down on their calendars if they have a particular team they want to see.”

Special dates Koote-nay Ice fans may want to mark down include a Halloween afternoon game against the Seattle Thunderbirds, the an-nual teddy bear toss game on Saturday, Dec. 12 (against the Swift Current Broncos) and a New Year’s Eve game

featuring the Red Deer Rebels (4 p.m.).

As is the norm, the Ice will play a total of 72 games through the 2015-16 season, with 36 dates at Western Finan-cial Place in Cranbrook.

Of those 36 home dates, 24 will be played on weekends, with 13 Friday contests, 10 Sat-urday outings and one Sunday affair.

The longest home stand for the Ice comes from Feb. 2, 2016 through Feb. 12, 2016, when the club will play five games, including a Wednesday, Feb. 10 date (12 p.m.) against the Tri-City Americans.

The mid-week mati-nee is tentatively slated to be marketed as a hockey hooky-style out-ing, similar to that of which the Edmonton Oil Kings have success-fully run for a number of years. The Ice served as the Oil Kings opponent for the 2015 CN Hockey Hooky event Thursday, Jan. 22, 2015, at Rexall Place.

“We want to try the hockey hooky that we’ve seen be successful in other markets like Ed-monton and Vancouver,”

Wahl said. “We’ve had some discussions with our local school districts and feel there’s some in-terest to pursue that.

“It’s a chance to in-corporate the schools into an event at one of our games. In chatting with the school board, there’s the possibility to include some kind of ed-ucational components, incorporate hockey in the classroom.

“I hope it goes over well and we will be able to pull students, not just in Cranbrook, but from around the East Koote-nay and expose them to our brand.”

Other than the Spo-kane Chiefs, which the Ice will take on five times in continuing a long-standing border battle, the rest of the U.S. Division will visit Cran-brook once in 2015-16 after staying home in 2014-15.

The Thunderbirds visit Western Financial Place on Oct. 31 while the Everett Silvertips travel to Cranbrook for a date with the Ice on Tuesday, Nov. 17.

The Americans (Feb. 10) and Portland Win-terhawks (Saturday, Feb. 27) visit during the month of February.

The Ice and Chiefs will engage in a five-game season series, in-cluding three games at Western Financial Place (Oct. 2, Jan. 22, Feb. 12).

Having hosted the B.C. Division during the 2014-15 WHL season, the Ice will trek through-

out the province in early December, setting out on a season-high five-game road trip that will take them from Kam-loops to Prince George.

The five-game B.C. swing will see the Ice play the Blazers (Dec. 1), Kelowna Rockets (Dec. 2), Vancouver Gi-ants (Dec. 4), Victoria Royals (Dec. 5) and Cougars (Dec. 8).

No different from any other year, the Ice will see plenty of its Central Division rivals.

The Ice play a total of 34 games against Cen-tral Division rivals, in-cluding seven against each of the Hitmen, Le-

thbridge Hurricanes, Medicine Hat Tigers and Red Deer Rebels. The Ice will face the Oil Kings six times.

The Ice take on East Division squads four times each (two at home; two on the road).

All home games at Western Financial Place are slated for 7 p.m. Tuesday through Satur-day with the exception of any previously listed special dates.

The lone Sunday game at Western Finan-cial Place -- Dec. 27 vs. Calgary Hitmen -- will be a 4 p.m. start.

In addition to excite-ment of WHL hockey at

Western Financial Place, fans in Cranbrook can expect an enhanced in-game experience with the onset of the 2015-16 campaign.

A new sound system has been installed in the building and Wahl is hopeful it will help cre-ate a more electric and lively atmosphere on game nights.

Kootenay Ice season tickets are on sale now and will be up until Oct. 6.

Single-game tickets for the first three home games of the season will be available to purchase beginning Friday, Aug. 21.

Notes: Kootenay Ice prospect Griffin Mendel has been invited to Hockey Canada’s 2015 National Under-17 De-velopment Camp. Men-del, a former first round pick (11th overall) of the Ice at the 2014 WHL Bantam Draft, is one of 111 invitees to the camp, which helps to deter-mine the 66 players that will represent Canada at the 2015 World U-17 Hockey Challenge. Men-del is committed to the BCHL’s Penticton Vees for the 2015-16 season.

NHL board of governors approves opening of formal expansion processSTephen Whyno

Canadian Press

LAS VEGAS - The NHL’s board of gover-nors has given the green light to opening a formal expansion process.

Commissioner Gary Bettman announced the decision at a news con-ference in Las Vegas in-sisting it’s no guarantee that the NHL will add a 31st or 32nd team.

It’s an important step

toward expanding the league. Interested par-ties will have from July 6 until August 10 to apply.

“We will then go through a formal vetting process, and the board ultimately will deter-mine whether or not there’s any interest in expanding,” Bettman said. “If the conclusion is there is interest from the league’s perspective, then there will be focus on what the terms would be and who the likely successful candi-dates might be.”

Deputy commission-er Bill Daly added the 2017-18 season would

be the earliest an expan-sion team would debut.

Bill Foley’s Hockey Vision Las Vegas is at the forefront of expansion, and the city is the favou-rite to get a franchise.

The Las Vegas sea-son-ticket drive received 13,200 deposits for seats at the arena set to open next spring, according to Daly. Those deposits are technically refundable if a team is not in place for 2016-17, but Daly said he didn’t think Foley’s group was concerned.

Seattle and Quebec City are other leading candidates for expan-sion, and Toronto is an-

other possibility. Daly said other cities, such as Milwaukee, Portland and Kansas City have also expressed interest.

Quebecor and the NHL have a relationship through a French-lan-guage TV-rights deal, and the Videotron Cen-tre is set to open soon.

“We know in the province of Quebec, hockey is a religion. We are all, as individuals, hockey maniacs,” Que-becor president and CEO Pierre Dion said. “Quebec is an extraordi-nary market and we have a corporation, Quebecor, who has shown for three

or four years its willing-ness to be a major player in sports, with TVA Sports, the Armada, the Remparts, manager of the (Videotron Centre) for the next 25 years. We have all the ingredients.”

Seattle’s lack of an arena is the stumbling block to getting a team, and there’s less certainty on potential ownership.

Bettman said the ex-pansion fee will be at least US$500 million. Any applicants must also pay a fee, some of which is refundable, Daly said.

The NHL has had 30 teams since most recent expansion in 2000, when

the Columbus Blue Jack-ets and Minnesota Wild joined. The expansion fee was $80 million for those teams, the Atlanta Thrashers and Nashville Predators and $50 mil-lion earlier for the Otta-wa Senators, San Jose Sharks, Anaheim Ducks and Florida Panthers.

The Eastern Confer-ence has 16 teams while there are 14 in the West, something that could play a role in what cities the league might choose to expand to. But Bett-man said geography and imbalance are not the sole factors.

If you have not already received your notice, please contact City Hall at (250)-426-4211 so that a copy may be forwarded to you.

Taxes are due on July 2, 2015, after which time a 10% penalty will be added to any unpaid current taxes. Home Owner Grants may be claimed even if current taxes are not paid in full. Penalties ap-ply to Home Owner Grants not claimed by July 2, 2015.

If you are participating in the pre-authorized pay-ment program, please note that the prepayment amount on your tax notice includes the May 15th and June 15th payments. As your prepayment amounts were based on an estimate there may still be a balance owing. To avoid a penalty, please review your Tax Notice carefully and make sure you pay any outstanding balance prior to July 2, 2015.

SEATTLE - The Seattle Mariners have called up outfielder Franklin Gutierrez from Triple-A Tacoma, nearly two years after he last played in a major league game.

Seattle made the roster move on Wednesday and optioned James Jones to Tacoma. Gutierrez was scheduled to be in the starting lineup and playing left field for the Mariners in their series finale against Kansas City.

Gutierrez last played in the majors in September 2013 and did not play all of last season. The former Gold Glove winning outfielder has been injury prone through his Seattle career and was slowed in recent seasons by stomach issues. Between 2011 and 2013, Gutierrez appeared in just 173 games for Seattle.

But Gutierrez was thriving at Triple-A this sea-son, hitting .317 with 12 doubles, seven home runs and 31 RBIs in 48 games.

Mariners’ OF gutierrez on comeback trail

aSSociatED prESSST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - Marco Estrada lost his bid

for a perfect game on Logan Forsythe’s infield single with one out in the eighth inning, but Chris Colabello homered in the 12th to lift the Toronto Blue Jays over the Tampa Bay Rays 1-0 on Wednesday.

Forsythe barely beat out a slow chopper to third that Josh Donaldson fielded barehanded. Donald-son’s throw to first was just a hair too late.

Toronto challenged the call by umpire Joe West, which was confirmed after 40-second replay review.

Tampa Bay’s only other hit off Estrada was Kevin Kiermaier’s two-out double in the ninth that chased the right-hander.

World Polio Day was established

by Rotary International over a decade ago to commemorate the birth of Jonas Salk, who led the fi rst team to develop a vaccine against po-liomyelitis. Use of this inactivated poliovirus vaccine and subsequent widespread use of the oral poliovirus, devel-oped by Albert Sabin, led to the establishment of the Global Polio Erad-ication Initiative (GPEI) in 1988.

Since then, GPEI has reduced polio worldwide by 99%.

However, in 2012, trans-mission of indigenous wild poliovirus contin-ued in three countries: Nigeria, Afghanistan, and Pakistan. In April 2012, the World Health Assembly declared the completion of polio eradication a program-matic emergency for global public health.

Tom FleTcherBlack Press

VICTORIA – The B.C. legislature is being re-

called July 13 to exam-ine and approve a 25-year tax and royalty agreement for B.C.’s first

major liquefied natural gas investment.

Finance Minister Mike de Jong said Tues-

day a project develop-ment agreement for Pa-cific Northwest LNG’s pipeline and export ter-

minal near Prince Ru-pert has been approved by the energy compa-nies proposing the in-

vestment of up to $36 billion. The project still needs federal environ-mental approval and an

agreement with Coast Tsimshian and other First Nations in whose traditional territories the pipeline and ship-ping facilities would be built.

Members of the Lax Kw’alaams Band voted down an offer from Pa-cific Northwest LNG in May, citing concern about the terminal’s im-pact on salmon habitat in the Skeena River es-tuary, despite a design change to build a bridge for the pipeline above the area known as Flora Bank.

The province re-vealed the general out-lines of the project agreement in May. It provides minimum gas royalty revenues for B.C., with increased rev-enue to the investors if the spread between North American and Asian prices increases during the term.

It also provides for compensation to the in-vestors if future govern-ments impose “discrim-inatory” increases to carbon tax or green-house gas regulations on LNG plants during the next 25 years. NDP leader John Horgan said he is concerned that the B.C. Liberal government over-promised the ben-efits of LNG develop-ment and may now be offering “too much lolly” to land the first big deal.

Pacific Northwest is a consortium led by Ma-laysia’s state-owned en-ergy company PETRO-NAS, its Canadian sub-sidiary Progress Energy, Chinese state firm Sino-pec, Indian Oil Corp., Japan Petroleum Explo-ration Corp. and Petro-leum Brunei.

The B.C. government approved a separate 3.5 per cent LNG income tax last fall, and passed legislation to control the amount of property tax the local government can impose on the proj-ect.

Limits were also placed on conventional pollution and green-house gas emissions from the project, with carbon offsets required if the operation exceeds 0.16 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent per tonne of LNG produced.

Legislature back July 13 for LNG deal

The Red Chris copper and gold mine in northwestern B.C. is ramping up production after overcoming protests, declining metal prices and three reviews of its tailings facility.

Imperial Metals received its Mines Act permit for Red Chris June 19, after additional scrutiny of the open-pit mine’s construc-tion in the wake of the August 2014 tailings dam breach at the company’s Mount Polley mine near Williams Lake.

That breach triggered inde-pendent reviews of nearly 100 mine tailings ponds with permits across the province, looking for design or operational weaknesses that indicate risk.

The Tahltan Nation commis-sioned its own assessment of Red Chris, located 18 km southeast of

the Tahltan village of Iskut, before community members voted 87 per cent in favour of a benefits sharing agreement for the mine.

Powered by BC Hydro’s new northwest transmission line, the project will truck ore concentrate to the bulk shipping terminal at Stewart near the Alaska border.

Energy and Mines Minister Bill Bennett said mines like Red Chris can operate profitably even in the current low-price market for copper, if their processes are efficient. Imperial Metals con-ducted drill tests showing high-er-grade copper and gold depos-its deep below the surface ore body.

Imperial has applied for a per-mit to reopen Mount Polley, using an empty pit to hold tail-ings as work continues to repair the dam and remediate the washed-out creek below. Bennett

said inspectors are expected to make a decision on that permit in July.

Another mine expected to begin operation this summer is Brucejack, an underground gold mine 275 km northwest of Smith-ers. Underground mines produce less waste rock than open-pit op-erations, and Brucejack’s owner Pretivm plan to return some of the rock underground as cement-ed paste.

Another underground mine preparing for operation is Silver-tip, an ore deposit near the Yukon border that was first identified in 1957. The province and the Kaska Dena First Nations signed an en-gagement agreement in 2012, de-termining a structure for resource permits for Silvertip and other projects covering millions of hectares on northern B.C.

Mining activity picking up in B.C.

Ministry of EnErgy and MinEs

The Red Chris mine near Iskut is moving to full operation on one of the world’s largest copper and gold deposits.

Ten Easy Ways to Stay on Budget this Summer

The lazy days of summer are here and with them come plenty of ways to spend. Here’s some easy tips to keep your budget on track through the sunny season!

1. Keep it on tap. Fill your own reusable bottles each day instead of buying bottled water. You’ll save money, and do good things for the planet.

2. Be a borrower. Get your summer reading material at the library or online.

3. Skip the brands. We go through a lot of sunscreen and similar products in summer. Shop for cheaper house brands: the quality is usually excellent.

4. Perfect the potluck. Make your own signature dish and get

guests to bring a favourite of their own, allowing them to share in the cost and effort of your backyard meal.

5. Pack a lunch. Make it part of the experience of a car trip or excursion. Find a picnic spot to enjoy your homemade goodies.

6. Shop the sales. Hold off updating your wardrobe until the summer styles go on sale.

7. Chill. Replace your AC fi lters. Set the temperature just one degree higher. Open the windows at night, and close the blinds during the day. On hot days, skip the hot stove.

8. Festival season. Lots of great events are completely free of charge. Look online for

something you’ll love.

9. Snap up those souvenirs. The best summer souvenirs are often the photos. Skip the souvenir shops; take more pictures instead.

10. Take a load off. Take advantage of historically low interest rates to refi nance your mortgage and roll large amounts of credit card debt into your mortgage, if you have enough equity.

This simple strategy can save thousands, give you one easy payment, and help you be mortgage free sooner. Then take that credit card, and put a post-it note on it that says “emergency use only”.

Now kick back and really enjoy your summer!

Have you always wanted to avoid crowds of tourists and travel to off the beaten track des-tinations, while being active and mingling with locals? Then ad-venture travel is proba-bly for you, regardless of your age.

One of the compa-nies I regularly use for my personal travel and recommend to my cli-ents is G Adventures, a Canadian success story. Read the founder Bruce Poon Tip’s book, called Looptail, and you will understand the passion and purpose behind this company.

One of G Adventures’ tag lines is “We love changing people’s lives.” To do that, they have to define and develop unique experiences for everyone they come into contact with, from the local guides they employ to the travellers that purchase trips from them. Everyone has to

get passionate, engaged, have a purpose and pro-vide a quality product!

G Adventures does this. They also promote sustainable solutions to minimize tourism’s im-pact on the world. Their Planeterra Foundation is a non-profit which works with local com-munities to minimize tourism’s footprint. A portion of every trip you purchase goes to this non-profit. From this pot of money, projects are created, such as the women’s weaving proj-ect in Peru; the survi-vors of human traffick-ing project in Nepal; the vocational project in Cambodia. And it goes to help out when disas-ter strikes, like the re-cent earthquake in Nepal.

So what is a G Adven-tures trip like? It’s a small group, 8 to 12 is the average. All ages, though there are differ-ent styles of travel, so

YOLO (You only live once) is directed at under 35, and COM-FORT is targeted at baby boomers. There are Ac-tive, Marine, Family, Local Living and Classic styles as well. Regard-less, you will stay in local two-four star ac-commodation, travel on a variety of local trans-port, and eat local food in locally owned and operated restaurants. You will see the sights and attractions that your local guide thinks are important and you will have lots of free time to do your own explor-ing. So … do you think you are an adventure traveller?

A few other nice touches – all departures are guaranteed, even if there is only one person signed up; if you have to cancel your trip, your deposit is put into a life-time account, to be used later, or even transferred to another person; and

Defining the Adventure TravellerCarla Nelson of Maritime Travel talks about a good way to get off the beaten track

if you’re single, you can be partnered up with another person and avoid a single supple-ment.

So that’s my plug for my adventure company of choice – and at this moment, I am now trav-elling in Iceland with

them! Be sure to check out one of my future travel articles to read about my Icelandic ex-perience!

The Shuswap Band will be reconsidering its support of Jumbo Glacier Resort based on the opinions of Band members now that the project cannot proceed without a new envi-ronmental assessment certifi-cate.

In a press release issued today (June 23rd), Shuswap chief Barb Cote said that by tak-ing this route, she understands the Band’s previous position of support could change. The pre-vious Band Council had public-ly supported the Jumbo project.

“In the past, our members were not typically involved in the decision making process. One of the main reasons that the current council was elected was to ensure that there was greater accountability of the Band Council to its members,” Ms. Cote said in the release. “We take that responsibility very seriously and in the case of the Jumbo Resort, I am fully committed to involving the members in determining how we are going forward.”

Ms. Cote has confirmed the Shuswap Indian Band has an

Impact Benefit Agreement with Glacier Resorts Ltd. (the developer for Jumbo) dated October 8th, 2008 and a draft agreement dated June 19th, 2009 with the Province of B.C. to address impacts and bene-fits from the project.

It is expected that the posi-tion of the Shuswap Indian Band membership on the

Jumbo Resort development will be clarified within the next several weeks.

“We are a fairly small com-munity and it is not difficult to reach out to all the families, especially now that so many people are using social media. Council expects that people will be eager to state their opin-ions and so we think this pro-

cess will happen quickly,” stat-ed Ms. Cote.

In conjunction with the community consultation pro-cess, Chief and Council will be assessing its legal position given that agreements are in place with Glacier Resort and the provincial government.

action of two people helped save a man’s life on Highway 3 near the Bombi summit. On Saturday, June 20 Salmo RCMP were dispatched at 6:30 p.m. to a single vehicle accident by BC Ambulance near the top of the summit between Salmo and Castlegar.

Salmo RCMP spoke with a witness that stated he came

around a corner and saw a large cloud of dust. An SUV was upside down in the middle of the road and was on fire. The witness ran to the vehicle and saw a male driver seat belted in and crushed inside the vehicle.

Another passer-by helped cut the seatbelt and dragged the driver out. The vehicle was totally engulfed soon after the driver was freed.

In a written statement,

RCMP say the driver may have been having diabetic issues and ambulance tended to him at the scene and brought him to hospital.

Salmo RCMP would like to thank the two witnesses that pulled the driver from the wreckage and may have saved his life.

The RCMP will be releasing their names for recognition.

to ensure that the East Kootenay gets the funding we need to combat the spread of noxious weeds and I will continue that fi ght along with the EK Invasive Species Council which does good work.

Today, we are facing a new threat from a diff erent kind of invasive species - zebra mussels. These insidious little creatures infested

the waterways of where I grew up in small town Ontario. They ruined all the wonder-ful places where I used to swim, fi sh and duck hunt. We cannot allow zebra mus-sels to get a foothold in the East Koote-nay.

We were the fi rst region in BC to get a mobile wash station for boats, thanks to funding from CBT. But last year, 12 contaiminated

The Week of June 21 - 27Dave HumpHrey

Items compiled from the archived newspapers

held at the Cranbrook Museum and Archives

1902Going the wrong

way … The Old Man is informed that three young boys stole some liquor last Monday eve-ning and became beast-ly intoxicated. This is a sad occurrence. It should be a lesson to parents. Boys should re-ceive careful attention and not be allowed to roam at will. Too many in Cranbrook are going to the devil because they know nothing of home discipline or home teaching. Save the boys and the men will be all right.

Coronation on hold … An extraordinary issue of the Gazette published this evening officially announced the definite postponement of the coronation cere-monies. King Edward was tragically stricken down on the eve of his coronation and had to undergo a serious oper-ation for appendicitis . When the news was given out in parliament dramatic scenes fol-lowed. Measures were at once introduced and passed, cancelling all celebrations and festivi-ties, and throughout London there is a horri-ble feeling of suspense.

The St. Mary’s Valley ... Fred Hazen came down from the St. Mary’s valley Monday, where he has some valuable mineral claims. He is working on the Hardscrabble and has a better showing than he has had at any time since he started opera-tions. Mr. Hazen looks upon the St. Mary’s country as one of the best in this district, and says that the past two years has demonstrated the fact that in every in-stance where work has been done the property has improved. What the valley needs is transpor-tation, and it is to be hoped that either the C. P. R. or Jim Hill will build a road from Marysville west.

Football team won ... Last Friday night the Cranbrook Lacrosse club played the football boys a game of lacrosse, the receipts being ap-propriated for the Fern-ie relief fund. The la-

crosse club naturally thought they had a cinch, but the opinion underwent a rapid change after five min-utes of rapid playing. How those football boys did play. How they did chase the ball and check their opponents. They never quit and their staying qualities were wonderful. The specta-tors soon saw that it was a fight to the finish. The lacrosse boys had a rep-utation to maintain, and the football boys one to win. The crowd, of course, was with the football boys, and good plays were cheered to the echo. It was a hot game and resulted in a victory for the football team by a score of 3 to 2. It was a sad day for the lacrosse boys when Haines’ Indians came to town.

Such foolishness … The foolish legislation permitting boys 18 years of age to vote has been revoked. This act will go down in history as an instance when the Brit-ish Columbia legislators of 1892 were controlled by common sense. Let us give the members credit for it. The Lord knows that they deserve little enough for their work this year.

Want to bet? … A number of Cranbrook people will attend the races at Grand Forks on Dominion Day. Tom Wellman may take over two of his horses, Christ-

mas Gift and Roy Car-ruthers. If he does, it is 20 to 1 that he will come away with some of the coin.

1903FARCE … One of the

most expensive farces perpetrated upon the tax payers of this district is the taking of prisoners from this district to Nel-son for incarceration. It has cost thousands of dollars in the past few years that might have been saved by having a gaol at some central point in this district. It is time for a change.

A battle royal ... South East Kootenay will be a warm battlefield during the coming pro-vincial campaign. The former district has been divided and in the future that portion lying east of the Kootenay River and south of Bull River will be known as the Fernie district. It will include the towns of Michel, Fernie, Coal Creek, Mor-rissey, Morrissey Mines, Elko and Jaffray. The portion lying north of Bull River and west of the Kootenay River will be known as Cranbrook district, and includes the towns of Cranbrook, Fort Steele, Moyie, Wardner, Marysville, Kimberley, North Star Mine and Ryan. Under the new law that went into effect upon the dis-solution of the house, all voters lists are nullified, and a new list must be

made in accordance with the new distribu-tion and it is absolutely necessary for a man to have his name on the new list if he is to vote at the coming election. Al-ready the work of col-lecting votes is under headway, and several hundred names have been registered up to date in this district.

Mosquito hell … Not since the high water of 1894 have the mosqui-toes been so bad. At Wasa, Fort Steele and Wardner they drive the people to shelter at times, and at Wardner it is almost impossible for the men to work.

Big drop … David Griffith met with an ac-cident last Wednesday evening by stepping off the high sidewalk near the Wentworth hotel after dark He was badly shaken up and com-pelled to go to the hospi-tal for a week, but is get-ting along nicely now.

Ouch! … James Fin-lay, of Kimberley, was in town a few days last week. Mr. Finlay met with a serious accident last week, while riding a horse and leading an-other. The animal he was leading became startled and jumped backward, catching a finger on Mr. Finlay’s right hand between the rope and saddle horn, cutting it off as clean as if done with a knife.

Big Liberal meeting ... Next Tuesday evening

a meeting will be held at Leask’s hall and every citizen of Cranbrook and vicinity who cares to affiliate with the Liberal party in the coming election is requested to be present.

Mosquitoes again … G. H. Gilpin returned Monday from a trip up the Kootenay River. He spent a few hours at Wasa and says the mos-quitoes will assay a mil-lion to the square inch in that section.

Winning streak … Tom Wellman’s stable of race horses has been capturing many purses at the Seattle races. Last week he had a winner nearly every day and considerable coin came his way in consequence.

Elk river bridge … The people in the To-bacco Plains country are anxious about the build-ing of that bridge over the Elk River. For more than a year the British Columbia government has allowed those peo-ple to be cut off from the market, and to be virtu-ally ostracized from the world. It is a shame and a disgrace. The the peo-ple have good reason to kick.

May build a brewery ... N. Klousman, of Greenwood, was in town this week looking over the field with the idea of building a brewery. He expressed himself as being well satisfied with the outlook, and may conclude to locate here.

It happened this week in Cranbrook

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Tension is high. You have the ability to embrace a change, or you might choose to stage a ma-jor power play. Others find you to be full of surprises. The smart move is to allow them to express their views while saying nothing. Tonight: Start the weekend early! TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Today’s emphasis is on your day-to-day life and on indulging in more rewarding moments. Even if you are working, make time for more interpersonal experiences. Ask for what you desire when the moment is appropriate. Don’t miss out on an opportunity. To-night: Stay present. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Be a wild thing, and tamper with your schedule. How you handle a personal matter could take an interesting turn. Be more forthright and direct; others will respond in kind. Allow your sense of humor to come out quickly, as it will help you relax. Tonight: In the game of life.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You might feel as if you must balance different forces that seem contradictory. Attempt to change your mindset; instead of looking at the differences, look at what they have in common. Ask more questions, and be more aware. Tonight: You don’t need to go too far. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You might need to get in sync with others. A situation could be challenging at first, but you will meet the demand with ease. Unexpected developments around legal matters are likely to have unexpected results. Loosen up, and get on top of a personal matter. Tonight: Hang out. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) One-on-one relating takes you down an interesting path, where you are likely to interact with unpredictable associates. Some-one you meet today might not be who he or she claims to be. Get to know this person more completely before making any commitments. Tonight: Be nice. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Your understanding of what

someone wants from you could be different from what you orig-inally had anticipated. Honor what is occurring, and be au-thentic about your thoughts and feelings. A meeting provokes in-teresting conversations. Tonight: Be impulsive. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Honor a need for fast changes between a close friend and someone whom you have put on a pedestal. Juggling these different perspectives could be problematic. Make sure that you express your caring in a way that can be heard. Tonight: Not to be found. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Be more direct and caring in the words you choose and the actions you take. You could see a situation develop where some-one, maybe even you, will opt to use money for control and pow-er. Think twice before you jump into such shenanigans. Tonight: The world is your oyster. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You are on top of your game and unlikely to allow any inter-ference at the present moment.

The problem is that others might start challenging you now more than ever. Perhaps another choice is possible. Reach out to a friend for feedback. Tonight: Take a stand once and for all. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might want to rethink a personal matter and gain greater understanding. By distancing yourself and empathizing with those involved, you will get a sense of the true dynamics in-volved. Once you do this, you are likely to find a solution. Tonight: Listen to favorite music. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) To make your point and have the greatest impact, you would be well-advised to relate on a one-on-one level with others. Honor a change of pace. Observe what is happening between you and a loved one. Make plenty of time for this person. Tonight: Dinner for two. BORN TODAY Musician Chris Isaak (1956), au-thor George Orwell (1903), sing-er/songwriter George Michael (1963)

Dear Annie: My husband and I have been married for nine years. When we were dating, we had the best conversations. He would remember events that happened in my life and would follow up with questions later. He talked about things going on in his life and would include me in the conversation, asking my opinion. After we married, he has either stopped listening to what I say or doesn’t really care anymore. He constantly asks me the same questions over and over, and can’t seem to remember the answers I give him. Yet he can quote you chapter and verse about any celebrity -- where they went to school, who they married, who their children are -- as though they are his best friends. I’ve asked him how he can remember all of that trivia, but can’t remember things I tell him that touch our lives. He said that he found celebrities interesting. I guess that means our lives are not important enough to matter. I don’t know what to make of this and sometimes feel as though I’ve been duped. Where is the guy I dated? How do I not take this personally? -- What Happened? Dear What: You are not alone. This type of spouse-deafness happens in many marriages. While you were dating, your husband paid more attention to your conversation partly because he was still trying to woo you, and partly because your life was separate from his. You were his “celebrity.” Now the conversations likely revolve around more mundane matters. Please don’t take this too personally. It’s irritating, but common, and isn’t worth getting upset over. Discuss unimportant things with your family or girlfriends. Wait until your husband expresses an interest before offering information. You cannot force him to be more attentive, but do ask him to set aside 15 minutes a day for the two of you to look into each other’s eyes and listen to whatever the other person says. (And if you have any celebrity news, add it to your report on the car repairs.) Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Sickened and Frustrated” whose family member and her spouse constantly blow their noses and clear their throats at family gatherings in restaurants. I would like to know why the majority of well-mannered people are not entitled to tell the nauseatingly stubborn and selfish couple to please stay home? Why are people so afraid of offending the offenders who couldn’t care less? They need to learn they are not compatible with dining out. Your suggestion to remake the social occasion without food sounds like political correctness. -- Not So Accommodating Dear Not So: It has nothing to do with “political correctness.” Most people include family members at family gatherings, so if dining out with them is the problem, it is simple enough to remedy. But if no one will tell them that their behavior needs refinement, or if they refuse to stop nauseating everyone else, your suggestion to not invite them is one possible solution.

Vidamour, Robert Douglas

“Corky”October 4, 1931 -

June 15, 2015With sad hearts we would like to announce the passing of our Father, Robert Vidamour, better known as “Corky” on June 15, 2015, at the age of 83.Dad was born in Bull River on October 4, 1931

Helen Watson and Reginald Vidamour. He married the love of his life, Margaret Barnhardt, from Wycliffe in 1953 and they remained in the Cranbrook area where they raised their three children.He worked hard in the logging industry, owning and operating small mills for some of that time. If hard work equalled money, Dad would have been a millionaire 10 times over.When Dad retired he spent a lot of time researching his family history and as a result he found family in Guernsey C.I. and was united with his half-sister Deirdre Cousineau and her family in Quebec. In 1997, Robert and Margaret travelled to Guernsey, to meet his distant relatives and discover his roots. Dad was so happy to have found and be welcomed into this previously unknown part of his past.He loved playing cards, especially cribbage and was famous at the Seniors Hall for his (one in 216,580) 29 hand!Robert was predeceased by his wife of 59 years, (Margaret), his daughter Janine, two half-brothers Doug and Harold Howg and his half sister Deidre Cousineau. He will be fondly remembered by his children, Chuck, Jeanette (Ken), Mark (Avis), and his grandchildren, Jevin, Lucas, Colin (Giselle), Alexandra, Justin and Brett his cousin Ruth Drescher, Tom Vidamour and his many nieces, nephews and friends.A gathering to celebrate his life will be held at the family home. 2053, Jim Smith Lake Road, Cranbrook on July 4, 2015 at 2pm.Memorial donations may be made in Roberts memory to The F.W. Green Home, 1700 4th St S, Cranbrook BC V1C 6E1

SHERYL UBELACKERCanadian Press

It might be called “send regret,” that panic that sets in after firing off an email or text that you suddenly realize was inappropriate, addressed to the wrong person, or just plain wrong.

Google is trying to save Gmail users from their own misguided missives by grant-ing them a window of sober second thought.

Gmail users can now add the “undo send” feature to their accounts and give themselves up to 30 seconds

to recall an ill-conceived email.

“‘Undo’ has saved my bacon professionally and personally more than once,” Google Canada spokesman Aaron Brindle enthused Wednesday.

“I’ve been known to press send a little too quickly. Sometimes, it’s as simple as fixing a typo or making sure you’re not replying-all, which can be awkward.”

The feature has been available to beta-testers of Gmail since 2009 and proved so popular that Google de-

cided to roll it out this week for all its 900 million-plus users worldwide. It has also been an option for users of “Inbox,” an enhanced Gmail application.

“I think everybody is kind of vulnerable to this,” Brindle said of fretting after a fast-fin-gered click on the send but-ton.

“Anything we can do to alleviate those sudden mo-ments of panic when you’re using one of our products is a good thing.”

Aimee Morrison, an En-glish professor who special-

izes in new media studies at the University of Waterloo, said other email providers will likely have to follow Goo-gle’s lead and add the undo feature to their programs. Users will demand it, she predicted.

“I think we’ve all had that experience of clicking send, then repenting the decision,” said Morrison, recalling how an acquaintance once sent a business email intending to sign off with “Best regards.”

The sender accidentally typed a “t” instead of a “g” in regards, but realized the mis-

take too late.“There’s nothing you can

do, it’s gone. It’s like dropping it into the mailbox on the corner and hearing the lid slam.”

Brindle said activating Gmail’s undo-send feature is simple.

- In the web-based ver-sion of Gmail, tap on the “set-tings” icon that looks like a gear.

- Select “settings” from the drop-down menu.

- Under the “general” set-tings tab, click on “enable undo send.” Users can

choose a delay of five, 10, 20 or 30 seconds before a mes-sage is sent out and cannot be retracted.

- Click the “save changes” button at the bottom of the page.

“For me personally, I’m a 30-seconds guy,” said Brin-dle. “I need to reflect on it sometimes. Five seconds can be a little bit tight.”

Once “send” is pressed on an email, a yellow bar ap-pears at the top of the screen, saying the message has been sent and offering the option to undo that transmission.

Google’s ‘undo’ feature may be godsend for Gmail users who regret hitting ‘send’

ROB SASSIt’s well known that

men of a certain age have an insatiable ap-petite for Martin Scors-ese films.

Few films lend them-selves to repeated view-ings like the modern classics Goodfellas and Casino. As Gen-Xers (who make up much of the fanbase of 1990s Scorsese films) start to come into some real disposable income, a good number of them seem to have been in-spired to collect the cars of their favorite unsa-vory screen characters – guys with names like Ace Rothstein, Nicky Santoro, Paul Cicero and Johnny Roastbeef. Call it the “Goodfellas Effect” if you want, but

the Hagerty Price Guide shows the values of 1970s Cadillacs to be up 25 per cent in just the last three months. Here are four favorites:

1967 EldoradoThe 1967 Eldorado

was the second shoe that GM dropped after the magnificent 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado. Another big GM front-wheel-drive car with fantastic styling, many of its styling cues — par-ticularly the knife-edged rear end treat-ment — still show up on today’s Cadillacs. Not surprisingly, ’67 Eldos are particularly menac-ing in black. Although Robert De Niro’s “Casi-no” character Sam “Ace” Rothstein was fond of

newer Eldos, several of the gorgeous older cars show up in the back-ground of the film.

1971-78 EldoradoThe 1967-70 Eldo

was a paragon of Bill Mitchell good taste. Let’s just say that the 1971-78 Eldo was a bit more Superfly than Don Draper. Still, with its massive 500-cubic-inch V-8, this was a car with more presence than Big Paul Castellano. They’re all over the film “Casino,” as they were in real life in 1970s Vegas. It’s hard not to start humming Tony Bennett’s “Rags to Riches” when you see one.

1971-76 DeVille

At a tick over 19 feet long, the 1971-76 DeV-ille was one of the larg-est cars of the decade in exterior dimensions and the largest in terms of interior volume. Trunk size was off the charts — just the thing for “The Simpsons’” resident goodfella “Fat Tony” (voiced by the great Joe Mantegna) to transport his suspiciously body bag-shaped “yard trim-mings.” The full-size DeVille was available with an equally massive 500-cubic-inch Cadillac V-8 (incidentally, that’s 0.6 cubic inches for each time the f-bomb was dropped in “Goodfel-las”). Not surprisingly, many of these cars were assembled in North Jer-sey at the Linden Cadil-

Goodfellas’ Cadillacs Are Hot Collectibles

lac assembly plant, a stone’s throw from Fort Lee, where part of “Goodfellas” was filmed.

1977-86 DeVilleWhile the DeVille

was significantly down-sized for 1977, it lost none of its swagger and appeal. The initial en-

gine offered still dis-placed 425 cubic inches and somewhat amus-ingly, the “yard trim-ming” capacity went up when the trunk size ac-tually increased. A Coupe de Ville (hot pink with a white vinyl top) led to the demise of Johnny Roastbeef and

his wife in “Goodfellas” when Johnny ignored Robert De Niro charac-ter Jimmy Conway’s di-rection not to do any-thing flashy with the Lufthansa heist money. The window sticker was still on it when Johnny took his last ride

C ANADIAN PRESSVANCOUVER - The City of Van-

couver has become the first in Canada to regulate illegal marijua-na dispensaries, despite strong warnings from the federal govern-ment.

In a eight to three vote, council-lors approved imposing a $30,000 licensing fee, requiring stores to be located 300 metres from schools, community centres and each other, and banning shops from cer-tain areas.

But in an unexpected move,

council voted to create a two-tiered licensing system, allowing non-profit compassion clubs to pay a fee of just $1,000.

The city also made changes to its proposed points system that was meant to help weed out bad pot shops that are connected to gang activity or sell to kids.

Under the new regulations, stores that are not compassion clubs will receive 10 demerit points immediately, as a way to promote the non-profit model.

The decision comes after four

days of public hearings that drew numerous speakers, many of whom complained about a pro-posed ban on edible products such as brownies and cookies.

But the city held firm on that part of the plan, deciding that the treats appeal to children, that it’s difficult to control their contents and patients can buy marijuana oil to make their own edibles.

Federal Health Minister Rona Ambrose had warned the city and police that over-the-counter sales of marijuana is illegal in Canada

and she expects them to uphold the law.

But the city has blamed the fed-eral government’s restrictive medi-cal marijuana laws for the rise of pot dispensaries in Vancouver - from 20 to 94 over the last three years.

City manager Penny Ballem has said the goal of regulation is to re-duce exposure to youth and pro-tect public health, while ensuring access for those who need medical marijuana.

Under the new regulations, dis-

pensaries must apply for a licence and face a review that would rank them based on factors including the number of complaints and po-lice incidents.

Where two nearby shops have the same ranking, a lottery would decide which one gets to stay.

Many dispensaries will be forced to move, including all those located in the troubled Downtown Eastside and Granville Street neighbourhoods as well as those located on Pender Street.

Are You Planning a Home Renovation or Addition? Here’s How You Apply for a Building Permit.

Whether you are planning a small or large home renovation or a complete addition this year, there are lots of important decisions you need to make. One of those important steps is ensuring you get a Building Permit from the City of Cranbrook.Our staff is here to help you understand the permitting process and ensure that your project meets all the necessary requirements to begin, whether you are doing it yourself or hiring a contractor. Let us help you by first starting with understanding what a Building Permit is.

What Is A Building Permit?A Building Permit is a document issued by the City of Cranbrook which grants legal permission to begin construction of a building project whether it is a renovation or a full addition. A building project includes new construction, additions, alterations, renovations, relocations and repairs or rehabilitation of a building or structure.

Building Permits are required when you want:

• to erect a new building or structure, including garages, decks, and swimming pools;

• to place a factory built structure such as a mobile or manufactured home, a park model or an accessory structure over 100 sq. ft. in size (Example: a premade garden shed)

• to demolish, repair, alter, or move an existing building or structure;

• to construct an addition to an existing building or structure;

• to install a fireplace; and

• or repairs which change or affect the structural nature of a building or structure.

Some minor building projects may not require a Building Permit, but construction is still required to conform to the requirements of the B.C. Building Code. The City’s Building Department should be contacted to determine whether a Building Permit is required.

Why is a Building Permit Required?A Building Permit is required in order that public health and safety is protected in the construction of a building project. Applications must include:

• a completed building permit application form including an owner’s authorization form (if the applicant is not the building owner) – other forms may be required depending upon the nature and location of your application (For example: an Erosion and sediment control permit, a development and/or development variance permit)

• 2 complete sets of scaled construction drawings comprised of:

• a site plan showing the following: the street location and dimensions of the property proposed for development; the location of both existing and proposed buildings with distances from property lines to the foundation of structures indicated; area of both existing and proposed buildings as well as vehicular access to the site;

• floor plans showing the size and proposed use of each room;

• a detailed foundation plan

• elevations showing full views of front, rear and sides of building including additions as well as finishing details;

• cross section showing construction details;

Once a Building Permit is issued construction should begin within six (6) months from the date of issuance. A Building Permit becomes invalid after twenty-four (24) months from the date of issuance and your request for on-site inspection must be made the building inspec-tor at least forty-eight (48) hours in advance.

It sounds like a lot of steps, but remember we are here to help you with your project by providing information, application forms and to answer any questions you may have.

Home Garden&

Homeowners who take pride in their lawns and gardens know just how problem-

atic weeds can be. Weeds can make otherwise well-manicured and thriving lawns and gardens appear unhealthy and ill-kempt. But homeowners don’t have to sit back and accept weeds as an inevitable byproduct of warm weather. The following are a handful of ways homeowners can handle weed growth so all their hard work is not masked by unwelcome weeds.

· Pull weeds after watering. It might seem odd to water weeds, but watering weeds can actually make it easier to pull them out so they never return. When you pull weeds from soggy soil, you can more easily pull weeds’ entire root system from the ground. That means you aren’t just pulling the stems and leaves, but the entire weed from the ground.

· Lay mulch. Mulch can bene- t a garden in many ways, not the least of which is helping to prevent the growth of weeds. Mulch prevents sunlight from reaching weed seeds, helping to prevent the growth of weeds before they even appear to cause you headaches. In addition, mulch helps soil retain moisture, which

bene ts plants as summer tem-peratures rise.

· Lay landscape fabric. Home-owners who want to do more than mulch can lay landscape fab-ric in their gardens as well. Land-scape fabric will work in much the same way as mulch, blocking sunlight from reaching weed seeds and therefore preventing the weed seeds from germinating. When laying landscape fabric, simply cut holes in the fabric where the plants will be, lay the fabric down and then cover the fabric with mulch.

· Plant strategically. How you plant also can help defeat weeds before they ever appear. Speak with your landscaper or a local lawn and garden professional before planting, asking if it’s possible to plant particular plants close together to prevent weed growth. Plants that are planted in close proximity to one another will block sunlight from reaching the soil, which will make it more di -cult for weed seeds to germinate.

Weeds are a formidable and unwelcome foe to homeowners who take pride in their lawns and gardens. But there are several ways to combat existing weed in-festations and prevent their return in the future.

Homeowners who have dealt with insect infestations know that even the smallest critters can make for formidable foes. A

single insect might not seem like a substantial problem, but such uninvited guests have a ten-dency to multiply, quickly becoming a problem for less proactive homeowners.

Such is the case with fruit ies. Though small in stature, fruit ies can prove a pesky, food-contam-inating nuisance. As their name implies, fruit ies are attracted to ripening fruits, which serve as a food source and a breeding ground. Fruit ies also breed around garbage disposals, drains and gar-bage cans while facilitating the transmission of bacteria that can prove harmful to human health. Fortunately, homeowners can employ a combina-tion of strategies to fend o fruit y infestations before they take root.

• Locate and eliminate potential breeding grounds. Fruit ies are seen swarming around trash cans and areas where food has been left out. According to TERRO®, an industry leader in DIY pest control products, fruit y populations tend to be greatest during the summer and fall months, when they infest fruits during the harvest season. Pay particu-lar attention to trash containers during these times of year, discarding trash more frequent-ly if necessary and making sure all trash can lids are tightly closed. In addition, place rip-ened fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator during these times of year.

• Trap ies before they can breed and multiply. Fermenting fruit or moist organic debris is necessary to complete the fruit y life cycle. TERRO® Fruit Fly Traps, which last 30 days, employ a non-toxic, food-based liquid lure to attract and trap fruit ies. Once inside, fruit ies cannot escape, eliminating their chance to breed and multiply. Before placing traps, pay attention to where fruit ies tend to be most problematic and place the ap-ple-shaped traps in those areas.

“The key to successful elimination of fruit ies is to locate their breeding source and place the TER-RO® Fruit Fly Trap nearby,” says TERRO® Director of Research Stew Clark. “Look for fruit y sources in

How to fend o a fruit y invasionareas where unrefrigerated fruits and vegetables are stored, near garbage cans and recycling bins.”

Once you identify potential breeding grounds, activate the apple-shaped trap by pulling the leaf-like lid from its base and pouring the liquid lure into the vapor chamber. Keep the lid open while the trap is in use, and you should notice a signi cant decrease in the number of fruit ies within a few days.

• Keep a clean home. Clean homes, and tidy kitchens in particular, are less likely to be overcome with fruit y infestations. After cooking meals, be sure to clean all surfaces with which food has come in contact. Clean any spilled drinks, since sweet and sticky beverages like soda and wine lure fruit ies. It’s also important to keep cleaning materials, such as mops and drains, clean, since fruit ies can continue to breed in soiled mops and dirty drains.

Though small in stature, fruit ies can prove harmful to human health, spreading bacteria while also serving as a pesky nuisance. But while many might see fruit ies as an inevitable side e ect of warmer weather, these uninvited guests can be quickly and easily eliminated. More infor-mation about TERRO® Fruit Fly Traps is available at www.terro.com.

Fruit Fly traps can help homeowners eliminate potentially problematic fruit y infestations in a matter of days.

GARDENING POINTERS FOR NOVICESPeople have many reasons for growing gardens, and some of the most popular gardens are plots designated for cultivating herbs and vegetables. Fresh produce at the ready is a great bene t of having a home garden, which also allows homeowners to exercise full control over which products to use to grow robust, healthy vegetables.

Novice gardeners may not know where to begin when it comes to planting their rst vegetable gardens, and such gardeners can bene t by starting small. You may want to begin by growing plants in containers so they are more manageable and can be moved as you discover which areas of your property provide the best growing conditions.

Begin with one or two types of vegetables. Tomatoes, cucumbers and certain squashes are popular starter plants, as they are relatively hardy. Select only a few plants so you are not overwhelmed with the level of care required to maintain your garden.

Some gardeners prefer to start plants from seeds, but this will require more time and a greater commitment with regard to maintenance and planting. When just starting out, experiment with small plants that are established and already have a good root system.

Consult with your local gardening center for more suggestions, such as which soil amendments to use. Plants may require a certain soil pH that can be adjusted for opti-mal plant growth.

Many of us know that in-sulation plays

a key role in keeping our homes warm in the winter and cool in the summer. But did you know the bene ts can go well beyond achieving basic R-value requirements? Quality insulation can provide a number of added bene ts that contributes to the comfort, safety and e ciency of a home, including:

Sound absorben-cy - Life is loud, but the right choice of insulation can help reduce noise trans-fer throughout your home. Insulating between oors and

interior walls can help create a peaceful sanc-tuary in areas of your home, even when life is chaotic.

A safe indoor environ-ment - Good indoor air quality goes a long way toward ensuring personal comfort. Choosing insulation that is water repellant and resistant to mold, mildew, fungi, bacteri-al growth and rot can help to prevent com-mon issues behind your walls that may pose serious health and safety concerns and lead to costly re-pairs. Look to products that will not o -gas or emit harmful VOCs (volatile organic com-pounds).

BY SCOTT MCGILLIVRAY

Savings - A properly insulated building will be more energy e cient, a bene t that will continue to provide return on investment long after the insulation install is complete. The result is reduced heating and cooling costs, less stress on your furnace and air conditioner (potentially leading to a longer equipment lifespan) and, at the

end of day, more mon-ey in your pocket.

Fire-resistance - Certain insulations, particularly stone wool insulation products such as Roxul Comfort-batt and Safe ‘n’ Sound, can help buy valuable minutes in the event of a re, withstanding temperatures of up to 1,177°C. Non-combus-tible, this insulation exceeds the limits of most other insulating

materials, and it won’t produce smoke or encourage the spread of ames.

Performance - It’s im-portant to remember that not all insulations are created equal. Some insulations can sag or contract over time, leaving gaps that can let outdoor air in and conditioned air out. Choosing insula-tion that is dimension-ally stable, durable and

that o ers long-term thermal performance will ensure your home can stand up in even the most challenging conditions. Stone wool products are proven to perform in even the most extreme condi-tions, making them ideal for use in the United States.

Ultimately, you can purchase insulation as many do, based on basic R-values.

But when it comes to quality, comfort, safety and e ciency, is basic really the best choice? Quality counts when it comes to all building materials. Always look for products that will deliver bene ts well beyond the status quo.
