PROPOSED BOOZE-DISTANCE BYLAW DIESCoun. Marg Spina’s idea defeated in tie vote, paving way for wine sales in grocery stores
Kamloopsians may get a chance to buy a bottle of vino from a local grocery store after a proposed bylaw putting distance restrictions on new liquor sales was shot down by city council this week.
The proposed bylaw, suggested by Coun. Marg Spina, would have barred new liquor stores from open-ing within a kilometre of existing shops, effectively barring grocery stores from bringing in one of the province’s new licenses to sell B.C. wines.
But, following a public hearing
on Tuesday night, Spina’s proposal died via a tie vote, with council-lors Tina Lange, Donovan Cavers, Denis Walsh and Spina voting in favour and councillors Dieter Dudy, Ken Christian, Arjun Singh and Pat Wallace voting against.
Tie votes are considered defeats. Council’s vote came after more
than three hours of public submis-sions, with the subject matter pitting local winery owners and B.C. wine lobbyists against owners of private liquor and wine stores.
Larry and Tracy Gray of Discover Wines told council grocery stores are being given unfair advantages. Whereas wine stores like theirs in Sahali can only stock wines certified
by the B.C. Vintners Quality Alliance, grocery stores are being given the option to stock any wine made entirely in the province, including meads, fruit wines and other prod-ucts Discover Wines can’t access.
“If Save-On-Foods opens up a wine store near me, they can sell more wines than I can,” Larry Gray said.
Private store owners are also con-cerned grocery stores will eventually carry full liquor selections, forcing them out of business.

Kamloops Mounties say they didn’t want people to panic, which is why they waited 12 days to reveal the discovery of a card skimmer at a Valleyview gas station.
Const. Jason Epp said police delayed release of the information because they did not want to cause “undue alarm if there was no risk.
“Even now we’re not sure a fraud actually occurred.”
Epp said police were called on July 16 after staff working at the Chevron sta-tion at 1795 Trans-Canada Hwy. discovered the card skimmer attached to one of the pumps.
“It was really difficult to notice,” Epp said. “One of the staff happened upon it by circumstance. It was pretty stealthy.”
Card skimmers range from cameras that record numbers and pin codes to readers that collect data. The unit found at the station, a data-capture unit, will be sent to the RCMP’s technical unit for analysis.
“It was an actual unit in the slot itself . . . It’s really rare we get something like this,” Epp said.
That analysis and a review of Chevron records should determine whether the card skimmer was able to col-lect data. If there was no remote download, Epp said it’s unlikely the scam netted any information before it was discovered.
To be certain, Mounties are advising motorists who gassed up on or shortly before July 16 to review bank and credit-card records.
“The biggest thing is being vigilant, paying attention to your bank account activities,” Epp said, noting police are also viewing the gas station’s video-recording.
WorkSafeBC has found Kamloops Regional Correctional Centre (KRCC)failed to communicate to guards when inmates under their watch have a record of excessive violence.
The agency ordered the maxi-mum-security provincial remand facility to find ways to communi-cate risk following a serious assault in June, when an inmate sucker-punched a correctional officer in a regular living unit.
Union officials said the guard received a series of punches to the head and body. When the guard fell to the ground, he was set upon by the inmate and bitten.
The guard was taken to Royal Inland Hospital for treatment of inju-ries, including a concussion.
Another guard was nearby, heard the commotion and hit a pager, which brought immediate help.
A WorkSafeBC inspection report found there “is not an effective means
of flagging individuals with a docu-mented history of violence.”
The report said the onus is on guards to review inmates’ client logs.
“Client logs are available elec-tronically to corrections staff . . .
“There is an abundance of information, but the sheer volume of information recorded makes it impracticable to determine if an elevated risk of violence has previ-ously been identified,” the report stated.
Union representative Dean Purdy said WorksafeBC ignored other rec-ommendations from the union’s occupational health and safety com-mittee.
He did not detail them.“We’re starting to see a trend,”
Purdy said. “This is an exam-ple. Without enforcement by WorkSafeBC, it’s impossible to mini-mize risk to our officers.”
WorkSafeBC also ordered the cor-rections branch to provide training on measures to be taken if violence is threatened or occurs.
WorkSafeBC issued the report and order last week. It remains out-standing, meaning KRCC has yet to satisfy the demands.
Between October 2012 and October 2013, WorkSafeBC con-ducted reviews of all nine provincial prisons, including KRCC.
It issued six orders for KRCC to improve conditions for guards, inmates and visitors.
The review cited lack of protec-tive barriers, cameras that were not monitored and vulnerability to vio-lence when guards delivered goods to areas of segregation.
The review also noted an inspec-tion order given five years earlier was not acted upon. It concerned inmates’ ability to access staff work stations.
The Ministry of Justice and Attorney General declined to make a staff member available for an inter-view with KTW.
Instead, it issued a statement say-ing it has responded to WorkSafeBC and is awaiting response.

LEVEL 4 DROUGHT RATING DECLAREDThe province has placed the region on a level four drought
rating, warning local water managers could turn off the taps to conserve fish stocks.
The level four rating — the highest — was placed on the South Thompson, Similkameen, Kettle and Skagit areas. Those areas join the South Coast, Nicola and Vancouver Island as stricken with level four drought.
Kamloops sits on the border between the North and South Thompson regions.
The North Thompson is in level two drought.Level four drought means there is insufficient water supply
to meet socioeconomic and ecosystem needs and includes vol-untary conservation, restrictions and regulatory response.
The status allows temporary suspensions of water licences if deemed necessary, usually to protect fish stocks.
The Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Development said further declines in lake and stream levels could lead to shortage affecting agriculture, fish and people.
It has urged conservation of water, noting users with intakes in streams should ensure they are screened to prevent fish from being pulled in as levels drop.
The increase in the region’s rating follows an order handed down last week that prohibits angling on three important salmon streams in the Nicola Valley — the Coldwater and Nicola rivers, as well as the Spius Creek tributary.
The ministry said further declines in water and aquifer lev-els could lead to shortages affecting agriculture, industry and people.
The angling closure extends to the end of September.Lake fishing is unaffected.
Finished with fi rst past postAll in favour of elec-
toral change, say “aye.”Speakers and can-
didates at an elec-toral forum on Tuesday night spoke in favour of changing the way Canadians vote.
“We don’t get what we voted for, at least most of us,” Gisela Ruckert, a local repre-sentative of Fair Vote Canada, told about 125 people gathered in the Alumni Theatre in Thompson Rivers University’s Clock Tower Building.
Those included local candidates in the Oct. 19 federal election — Green representa-tive Matt Greenwood, Liberal Steve Powrie and New Democrat Bill Sundhu.
Notably absent from the city’s first forum before the election was Conservative MP Cathy McLeod, who declined to participate.
Greenwood stood in for McLeod, read-ing from a paper co-
authored by Stephen Harper in the late 1990s, when he was a Reform party member.
That included the statement from Harper 15 years ago that elec-toral change “might be the key to Canada’s future” — a statement that elicited guffaws from the assembled crowd.
Harper and the Conservatives now oppose change to the first-past-the-post sys-tem Canadians elect their politicians.
Greenwood, Powrie and Sundhu all spoke in favour of bringing in some kind of propor-tional representation
— a system whereby the percentage of votes across the country would more closely mirror the composi-tion of the House of Commons.
“We’ve stated this will be the last first-past-the-post election if we form government,” Powrie said.
Sundhu noted his party has supported electoral change for four decades.
“We have a huge opportunity to make this the last unfair elec-tion,” he said.
Both the Liberals and NDP have pledged to form commissions to study electoral change,
with a promise to bring in changes before the 2019 federal election.
Ruckert outlined what she said are fail-ures of the current system, particularly declining voter turnout and “wasted votes” — votes that do not translate into seats in Parliament if they are not cast for the local winning candidate.
“Unless you back the winner, your vote doesn’t matter at all,” she said.
The Conservatives have about 55 per cent of seats and garnered less than 40 per cent of the vote in the 2011 election.
Another fatal crash on Highway 5A Tuesday afternoon accident
on Highway 5 North at Vinsulla has claimed one life and left three people in hospital in seri-ous condition.
Vinsulla is 27 kilometres north of Kamloops.
Sgt. Mike Pears of the RCMP Central Interior Traffic Services said the two-vehicle collision occurred when the driver of a northbound pickup truck was attempting to turn left on to Kealty Road and steered into the path of a southbound
Volkswagen Jetta carrying four people — two people in the front seats and two people in the back.
One passenger in the rear died at the scene, while the three remaining passengers were rushed to Royal Inland Hospital.
Pears said neither of the rear-seat passengers were wearing seatbelts.
“This collision is an unfortu-nate reminder of the devastating outcome on two fronts,” Pears
said. “The importance of yield-ing to oncoming traffic when making a turn and the need to wear seatbelts to reduce injury and prevent death.”
Tuesday’s accident is the second fatal crash to occur on Highway 5 North this week.
A 23-year-old man died on Sunday morning when his southbound vehicle left Highway 5 North at Heffley Creek.
Police say speed appears to have been a factor in that acci-dent.

TRU creates task force
Charlene Eden thinks a move Thompson Rivers University is taking to deal with sexual assaults is good.
After a student wrote of being assaulted and finding the univer-sity’s response to her complaint inadequate, an interim protocol has been put in place and a task force is being created to work on four tasks:
• Develop a sexual-assault policy and review other policies and procedures that address sexual assault and/or sexual harassment;
• Enhance current sexual-assault prevention education programming;
• Develop clear reporting and response protocols; and
• Develop communication plans for the three tasks.
Eden, executive director of the Kamloops Sexual Assault Counselling Centre (KSACC), said she was encouraged to see the university move quickly after the woman’s story was reported on the Digital Times website at tinyurl.com/nvkakk5.
“It’s a good start,” Eden said.“There’s a lot of work being
done in Ontario that can be drawn from.”
She said TRU consulted with
KSACC as it drafted the protocol and she anticipates continu-ing to provide assistance as the university develops its education programming on the issue.
The protocol applies to all stu-dents and employees at TRU and is not restricted to incidents that happen only on campus.
It outlines steps victims should take and includes a guarantee of university support from the receipt of a report through aca-demic accom-modations for students and work accom-modations for staff.
The docu-ment outlines two streams for reporting — non-criminal and criminal.
Eden said it was good to see the university being pro-active as it addresses the issue.
Christine Adam, dean of stu-dents at TRU, said the plan is to have a firm policy in place by next year, with the education compo-nent complete.
She said TRU will be consult-ing with other post-secondary institutions in Western Canada — and in B.C. in particular — to share some commonality and expertise to address the subject.
Adam said one component
that will get particular cross-insti-tution attention is developing the educational side, what she calls “the train the trainer part.”
Bystander education is a key area, Adam said, because some-times it’s not easy for someone to intervene in uncomfortable situations.
Adam referenced presenta-tions Mike Domitrz, executive director of the Date Safe Project, gave on campus last year in
which he talked about how to do just that.
Privacy laws precluded Adam from discuss-ing the student’s story, but she said she wasn’t sur-prised the issue of sexual assault
on campus had been raised.“It’s one of the most under-
reported crimes there is,” Adam said.
Many sectors of the university community will be represented on the task force, with the poten-tial for people with particular expertise in areas it touches upon — social work, nursing and jus-tice, for example — being brought in to provide particular guidance.
Adam also foresees a booklet being developed to be distributed annually throughout campus and to new students and staff.

MORTGAGE MATTERSPlanning a Purchase?
Know the FIVE C’s of Borrowing Money Purchasing a home is a major decision; it represents the single largest purchase a family will ever make. So when it comes to qualifying for home fi nancing, what should you know? Here are the 5 C’s important to
the bank:
Capital – How much do you have to put down for the purchase of your new home? The larger the down payment, the less risk you present to the lender. 5% is the normal down payment required to purchase a home in Canada. However, if your credit is good, there are a few lenders who can gift you the down
payment in return for a higher mortgage interest rate. Having no down payment is not always a limitation.
Capacity – Is your income suffi cient to support the repayment of the requested loan amount? Most lenders will allow about 40% of your income to go towards housing costs and debt. The housing and debt
calculation looks like this: monthly debt payments plus housing costs plus heat plus ½ strata fees if applicable must be under 40% of gross income.
Be aware:Monthly debt payments includes: car loan, credit card, lease payments, etc.
Housing costs include mortgage and taxes for all your properties Heat is usually estimated between $85 to $100 per month
Credit – Is the fi nancial institution confi dent that you will pay them back? Credit is the evaluation of your habits when it comes to borrowing. If you have never taken out a loan or used a credit card, you may
be surprised to fi nd out you have no credit rating at all! A credit check reports your credit history and provides a numerical score based on your habits of borrowing and repaying debt (0 to 900, 900 is best).
Collateral – Will the real estate purchase offer suitable collateral to the lender? In the event of a default, the lender will sell your collateral to recoup their loan plus foreclosure expenses. So, lenders will do their homework to ensure the property is in good condition with good resale value. They may not always agree
with your purchase price. In some cases, lenders will require an appraisal.
Character – What kind of impression do you make? Character is your reputation and reliability. The bank may not have had prior dealings with you, so how do they determine your character?
The lender will often look at your:•Assets/ Debt/ Net worth – How have you spent your earnings? What do you have to show for it?
•Educational background and work experience*People with a transient job history or address history are seen as less reliable
than someone who has been in a home or job for 20 years.*

Kamloops RCMP say a child is the suspect in a series of paper fires on front lawns in a Brocklehurst neigh-bourhood late Monday night.
There was no dam-age to the properties on Kamwood Place, said Const. Jason Epp, not-ing the fires were easily extinguished.
Police said the child lit gasoline-soaked
papers on the lawns of three neighbouring homes. Mounties found and arrested the child soon after.
Due to the young age of the suspect, Epp said the youth will not be charged under the Youth Criminal Justice Act. Instead, police turned the matter over to the Ministry of Children and Family Development.
• An open window in the heat of the sum-mer allowed a burglar to enter a Brocklehurst home in the dead of the night and steal an iPad that was sitting on a nightstand next to a sleeping woman.
Epp said police were called to a report of a break and enter at a
home in the 1900-block of Fleetwood Avenue at 4:30 a.m. on July 24.
Epp said the female resident was awakened to the sound of somebody leaving her bedroom.
Mounties are remind-ing residents to keep doors and windows locked, even when home.
A coalition of local groups will fund a study looking at the viability of a year-round farm market in Kamloops.
Shirley Culver, a project manager at Community Futures Thompson Country, said the concept has been bandied about for 20 years.
“Every community wants one. Whether you can support one is another question,” she said.
A consultant will be hired in September, with a report ready by next year to answer that ques-tion.
“They’re going to come back and tell us if a 12-months market in Kamloops is viable and sus-tainable,” she said.
“They might say it’s sustain-able for eight months or what-ever.
“We expect some options,”
Culver said, adding the report may also find such a market is not viable.
Partners in the study include Kamloops Farmers’ Market, Southern Interior Beetle Action Coalition and Farm2Chefs.
What would it sell in winter?“It should sell not only root
vegetables, but should offer some value-added,” Culver said.
“Kamloops was historically the tomato capital of the prov-ince. There’s lots of ways to pro-cess tomatoes.”
Models include Granville Island, a recently established year-round market in Victoria and the privately owned Davison Orchards Country Market in Vernon.
Andy Balogh, who operates a butcher shop in Pritchard, already oversees a year-round market operating on Saturdays during the winter in Sahali Mall.
He told KTW he is skeptical
the 12-month concept will work due to the cost of renting floor space.
“We’re not going with them. We’re committed at Sahali Mall,” Balogh said.
“Show me your costs and where you can rent indoors to independent vendors.”
The Saturday winter market at the mall sells staples, includ-ing meat sausages and eggs.
Balogh said it could easily expand to offer space to vegeta-ble growers into December, after which time they would have no product.
Culver acknowledged the existing market, but said the goal is to create “a food farmer’s market, owned by the commu-nity.”
If a proposed farm-incubator program is established in Kamloops, it could work in con-junction with the Sahali Mall market, she added.

My first experi-ence with elec-tions in Canada came in 1969, when I was just
14 years old.There was a byelection in the
Ontario riding where we lived and my father was involved in the cam-paign. A staunch trade unionist, you can likely guess what party the candidate, Archdeacon Kenneth Bolton, was representing.
A rookie in the entire election process, my involvement was restricted to stuffing envelopes, running errands and watching in awe at the political processes sur-rounding me.
Bolton won, a reality that just made sense to me because I believed in what he was talking about.
Moving on to the federal realm, I again got used to voting for a winner because a dear family friend was the incumbent the first time I cast a ballot to choose a member of Parliament.
Charlie Turner held that office from 1968 to 1984.
Although he represented a dif-ferent party than the archdeacon’s NDP, voting for Turner was easy because I knew him, I liked him, he spoke his mind and he was part of that whole Trudeaumania wave that swept the country.
I felt comfortable supporting a party led by a man who, for exam-ple, said Canada will be a strong country when Canadians of all provinces feel at home in all parts of the country and when they feel all of Canada belongs to them.
But candidates I supported also didn’t get elected. Voting for someone who was likely going to
lose became the norm. I viewed it as participating in something essential to democracy; friends would have referred to it as wast-ing my vote.
Which is why the push to reform how we elect our political representatives resonates.
Every vote should really matter. We shouldn’t see elections
in which the party that wins the popular vote can still lose because of the first-past-the-post system we use in Canada.
There are plenty of templates that could be adopted, but the one that makes the most sense to me is prioritizing your votes. Pick your top two or three and those votes are counted.
It’s simple. It makes sense. It makes every vote cast have some value beyond participation in democracy — and it’s being used. It’s the system in Scotland, New Zealand, Germany and Wales. It’s a system advocated by the Law Commission of Canada.
Yes, there could be problems with it, but we already know there are problems with the system we will use when the federal election is held in October.
It works for me because it’s clear and definitive.
Fair Vote Canada, which held a forum in Kamloops this week to talk about electoral reform, presents the situation in a succinct way. Simply put, it believes in a system in which every vote counts and we end up with people in office who actually represent how we all voted, not how the 50 per-cent plus one cast their ballots.
Here’s another benefit — it gives women and other minorities a better chance of being elected.
The reality is women and minorities are under-represented in Ottawa. White males rule. They always have, but it’s not a reflection of the population mix itself and it leaves Canada ranked 54th in the world in terms of female parliamentarians. Even Afghanistan has a higher percent-age than we do.
The need for reform was ham-mered home to me by one of my kids. In our house, voting is sac-rosanct. You just do it because it’s how we maintain democracy.
One of my boys, nearing the age of majority and being exposed to the democracy-involves-you lecture from mom, listened and then asked one question: Why?
“Why should I vote, mom, when it won’t change anything. Why should I vote when it won’t matter?”
I didn’t have an answer for him.He sees his vote as worthless
because it has little impact on the reality of who is governing.
Maybe that’s why young voters aren’t engaged anymore.
Thanks to a sharp-eyed employee, a credit- and debit-card skimmer was discovered in the gas pumps, where people pay, at the Chevron station in Valleyview.
The skimmer is a device used by the nefarious among us to read data from debit and credit cards. That data can then be
collected and used to create duplicate cards and empty bank accounts or run up the credit-card bills of the innocent.
So, kudos to the Chevron employee for attentiveness.However, there remains the disturbing delay between the day the skim-
mer was discovered (July 16) and the day the discovery was released via the media to the public (July 28).
Twelve days passed between the time the skimmer was discovered and its discovery was revealed to the public.
When KTW asked the Kamloops RCMP why they waited almost two weeks to alert the public — specifically, customers of the Valleyview Chevron gas station who may have had their sensitive finan-cial information compromised — the answer given quite frankly made no sense.
The answer from the Mounties on the delay was because they did not want to cause undue alarm if
there was no risk. But, then, Const. Jason Epp added, police still don’t know if fraud occurred because examination of the skimmer was ongoing.
Whether police released the information on July 16 or July 28, the con-cern among those who used the gas station would be identical.
However, releasing the information immediately, rather than waiting 12 days for no apparent reason, would have allowed customers to confirm as soon as possible whether they had been ripped off.
More importantly, information released forthwith could very well lead to a better chance at catching the thieves if, by chance, they were using more than one skimmer at that location.
Logic dictates it might be easier to track those making illegal purchases with a skimmed card closer to the date the crimes occurred.
The delay in informing potential victims is simply baffling.

Editor: (Re: ‘Kamloops imam calls Senate idea
discriminatory,’ July 17): As a Minister of the United Church
of Canada, I agree with Imam Mazhar Mahmood of the Ayesha Mosque and Catholic Bishop David Monroe that the Senate proposal to certify Muslim imams is discriminatory.
Such a proposal is clearly unjust. Either all religious clerics in Canada are certified or none should be.
The Senate proposal is unnecessary.Most, if not all, organized religious groups
in Canada require their leaders to complete
internal and external checks, including RCMP criminal-record searches.
No system is perfect, but the present one works well.
In my opinion, the Senate proposal would do nothing to promote greater peace and security in Canada.
It only fans the flames of fear, intolerance and prejudice.
Instead, we need to promote multi-faith dialogue and mutual trust within our country.
When we get to know our neighbours — no matter what faith they may or may not fol-low, that’s when peace and security increases.
Recently, I had the privilege of attending
the Ayesha Mosque in Knutsford for a prayer service celebrating the breaking of the fast with the end of Ramadan.
I attended after hearing on CBC Radio an invitation from Mahmood for the public to attend the prayer service, followed by a meal.
I had never been to an Islamic prayer ser-vice. I was warmly welcomed and appreciated meeting members of the Muslim community.
Thank you to Imam Mahmood and the Ayesha Mosque for their gracious invitation and hospitality.

CAN ANY POLITICAL PARTY END THE RIP-OFF?Editor:
Oh, how shameless the greedy oil companies can be.I thought we heard it all before with their corporate
reasons to keep the price at the pump at unreasonable levels.
Interesting to note that one of their favourite excuses was the $140 price of a barrel of crude.
This week, it is well below $50 a barrel and the price
per litre just keeps creeping higher and higher.Well, folks, there is a federal election this fall.Any political party that can get this riddle figured out
gets my vote. Our oil and the prices at the pump speaks volumes
about government reluctance to address this rip-off cartel.Patrick Lamb

PESTICIDE BYLAW NEEDS TO BE RESCINDEDEditor:
The City of Kamloops bylaw ban-ning the use of cosmetic pesticides on anything but fruit trees or vegeta-ble gardens on residential properties is flawed and was passed by a few self-serving councillors.
How ridiculous to have a bylaw that will be difficult to enforce.
Council has now taken these pesticides out of the hands of quali-fied individuals and put them in the hands of those whose qualifications
are questionable.We will still be able to purchase
the pesticides.Guess who will be using them? The City of Kamloops will still be
able to spray pesticides in parks and on sports fields.
Don’t our children play on those fields and in those parks?
Don’t pregnant women go to the parks and playing fields?
And we can still spray vegetable gardens and fruit trees?
Councillors Donovan Cavers, Dieter Dudy, Tina Lange, Arjun Singh and Denis Walsh need to give their heads a shake.
They need to serve the people of Kamloops and not their self-interests.
This bylaw needs to be rescinded and given more thought.
I do know who will not be receiv-ing my vote in the 2018 municipal election.

When Carol Lapointe was hired as general manager at Domtar in 2011, one of the first visits he made was to Alan Shaver’s office.
Lapointe told Shaver, president of Thompson Rivers
University, he wanted to create a closer relationship between the pulp mill and the university beyond the scholarships and bur-saries provided.
The result was a partnership Shaver described as innova-tive and imaginative
between the post-secondary institution, the company and Local 10-M of Unifor, the union represent-ing many of the mill workers.
The agreement involves several aspects, but at the heart of it is providing trades students the opportunity to “have a real-life trades experi-ence and actually see
what they’re facing when they finish their course,” said Lindsay Langill, dean of TRU’s trades school.
The partnership will give students and instructors access to the mill to see systems and processes that can’t be truly demon-strated in the class-room. Students will get to job shadow and will do the work they’re
learning to help them acquire the needed hours for certification in their trades.
The three orga-nizations will work to enhance existing curriculum so TRU can provide “the most up-to-date, the most modern and the most useful program” it can, Shaver said.
Bursaries and scholarships will con-
tinue to be provided, along with increased safety-related training assistance for stu-dents.
Domtar stands to benefit from the agreement, said Nels Goddard, Domtar’s human-resources manager, because the company will see up to one-third of its workforce in the next five years.
The company has found it challenging to fill jobs and sees building the trades program as an oppor-tunity to fill that grow-ing gap.
Scott Doherty, assistant to Unifor national president Jerry Dias, said he views the agreement as a model that other educational institu-tions can replicate.
DEAL GIVES STUDENTS REAL-LIFE SKILLS; OFFERS DOMTAR ITS FUTURE
City asks both side to ante up
Both sides of the Ajax mine debate are being asked to chip in to pay for the City of Kamloops’ review of KGHM’s proposed copper and gold project south of Aberdeen.
Kamloops city council on Tuesday unanimously agreed to ask both KGHM Ajax and the Kamloops Area Preservation Association (KAPA) to help cover the costs of the $300,000 review of the mine’s appli-cation for environmental review.
KAPA is among groups opposed to the proposed mine.
Public works director Jen Fretz said the city plans to hire SLR Consulting, which has no ties to KGHM, to help it conduct a review of the application focused on questions previously raised by council and public concerns.
KAPA and other groups opposing the mine raised more than $25,000 in a online fundraising drive to hire experts to assess KGHM’s application.
Coun. Pat Wallace suggested the city approach the mine’s opponents, to give them confidence in the city-directed review.
“I think it would be a really good gesture to invite them in to participate,” she said.
But, while KGHM has already stated it will sup-port the review financially, the mine’s opponents likely won’t.
KAPA spokesman John Schleiermacher told KTW via email that he sees the group working alongside council rather than directly with the city.
“We see no point in using those funds raised to assist the City of Kamloops, but rather broaden the review by putting more people to work in reviewing all aspects of the application,” he said.
Mayor Peter Milobar said since the city is paying for, hiring and directing the scope of SLR’s work, the analysis is still independent of Ajax’s influence, and KAPA’s, regardless of the origin of funding.

Caleb Hart was living the “wrong life”, he said, before coming back to Canada.
Tasman Jude’s lead singer, who grew
up in Trinidad and Tobago, said he was mixed up in gangs, alcohol and drugs before moving alone back to his native country.
“I came here and then I realized that God didn’t hate me and I didn’t have to be angry at everyone,” he said.
“From there, I just started loving people.”
That was nearly six years ago
and Hart has since travelled back to Trinidad and Tobago, where his family still resides, to perform, including one show at his old high school.
“When I left, I wasn’t the best of persons,” he said.
“When I went back, I was there to inspire and bring hope . . . It was pretty cool.”
When KTW reached Hart for a phone interview, he was in Calgary cooking for his bandmates, part of what he called living on tour.
“It’s a mash up between people’s houses that opened up their houses to us, hotels, people’s floors, you name it,” he said. “Name the place and we’ve probably stayed there.”
He and his reggae group return
this year for Music in the Park on Aug. 5 after performing during last year’s free summer music series.
Last year’s show ended with a light show — but, not that of the strobe or flood-light variety.
“It ended with a lightning storm,” Hart recalled. “It was the last five minutes.”
Some people started packing up.Others, however, kept dancing
to the group’s catchy tunes, despite the rain.
“That was really amazing,” Hart said. “The organizers of Music in the Park told us we were the first band in history to get everyone up in the park dancing.”
“We’ve done a lot of shows,” Hart said. “That Music in the Park
remains [memorable].”Since the show in Kamloops, the
group has gone through a couple of different bandmates, added some new songs to its repertoire and per-formed more that 270 shows, Hart said.
Tasman Jude is working on a new album due to be released this fall, but, in the meantime, expect more of the same from the Reggae group at the upcoming performance, Hart said, meaning “music of love that takes you to the islands.
“We pour our entire hearts and souls into it. Once you come to our show, you’ll experience it.”
The show is 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the Rotary Bandshell in Riverside Park.
Derek Wilder (left), Bethany Earle, Caleb Hart and Al Peterson, who make up Tasman Jude, will be at Music in the Park on Aug. 5.

Like so many in her industry, Kelley Hunt grew up surrounded by music.
Mom sang, dad was a musician in the navy
band and her sisters have all taken a turn at writing and singing.
“There was lots of music swirling around in my family,” Hunt said.
“I was lucky to grow up in a house where music was playing all the time.”
Among her biggest influences are Mahalia Jackson, Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, Wanda Jackson and Aretha Franklin. She was also listening to and learning from piano greats like Professor Longhair and Johnnie Johnson.
At the age of three, she was learning to play the piano, teaching herself by ear. It’s her instrument of choice these days, although she’ll pick up a guitar, as well.
She’s touring now, heading north from her hometown just outside Kansas City and making a stop in Kamloops on Monday for a set at Music in the Park. Then it’s on to Penticton and the Calgary Blues Festival and back south for shows in
her homeland. She’s been touring for a while now, promoting her last release, The Beautiful Bones.
It’s her sixth recording in a career that started in 1994. One of her songs, If I Don’t Dance, was used
in the movie Dance With Me; she also had songs in the soundtrack for Bunker Hill.
The audi-ence at Riverside Park can expect to feel their feet tapping and maybe even leading to some dancing
on the grass when she and her band perform, Hunt said.
“The show is pretty powered up, but there are moments in the set, maybe it’s just me playing or we’re doing a ballad, when it’s laid-back. But I think people will be up and dancing because they can’t help themselves.”
Hunt is a late addition to the Music in the Park schedule, sharing the stage on Monday with Johnny Don’t.
“I was lucky to grow up in a house where music was playing all the time.”
DANCE WITH HUNT AT RIVERSIDE PARK
Kelley Hunt will be at Music in the Park on Monday before continuing her tour in Penticton and Calgary.

When sum-mer camp includes learning how to use a 3-D
printer — well, it’s a cool way to beat the heat.
Add in experts who take their own real-life experiences to show that business can be more than wearing a suit to work and sitting in a cubicle and, for one group of Kamloops youth, it’s inspirational.
That’s why Kamloops Innovation will likely bring back its summer camp next year, perhaps adding additional weeks so more students can experience it.
Gontran Nzobonimpa was one of three instructors for the camp, which had 14 partici-pants ranging in age from nine to 15.
He described it as an oppor-tunity to learn how to run a whole business, viewed from
the technological side but including requirements to learn how to fund their project and how to do market research to determine its viability.
For Kirsten Zuback, that item was an adjustable holder that can accommodate anything from a smartphone to a tablet while Keegan Beaulieu created a night light that uses motion sensors so it doesn’t have to be on overnight.
While both said they found the overall experience to be great, their favourite day was the one when they learned to do coding.
Amanda Chan, a com-munity builder at Kamloops Innovation, said to hear stu-dents “saying ‘demographics’ and ‘target market’ was great.”
At the end of the week, she said, the students had to pitch their ideas to a panel of five judges.
“Even the kids had questions for each other. We didn’t expect that at all, they were so into it,” Chan said.
“They were asking them about specific skills and what
would you change now that we’re done?”
For Kirsten, the camp was an interesting experience because it brought the two sides together.
Both she and Keegan, a stu-dent at Valleyview secondary, agreed they like technology but had never viewed it from the vantage point the camp pro-vided.
Keegan’s continued his technology focus this summer, working on a device that would reduce the number of wires needed to power a row of light-emitting diode (LED) lights.
Chan said the pair were so successful she could see them returning to a camp next year in mentor roles.
“There is a need for it,” she said of the camp, which cost $250 for the week of 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. sessions.
Kirsten, a student at St. Ann’s Academy, said the kind of les-sons at the camp aren’t taught at her school.
“Everyone thinks business is a suit and tie and sitting in a cubicle,” she said. “And it’s not.”
THE BIZ WITHOUT THE SUITKeegan Beaulieu (left) and Kirsten Zubak took part in the summer camp for business-minded computer kids.

Kudos to young cadet
Two Kamloops students have been awarded $4,000 in scholarships from Valley First.
Josef Perszon and Ashley Curtis will each receive $2,000 to help fund their post-sec-ondary education.
Josef gradu-ated from St. Ann’s Academy and will attend Thompson Rivers University in the fall to pursue a business degree, with aspirations to become a film maker.
Ashley graduated from NorKam second-ary and will also attend TRU, but to obtain a bachelor of science.
Her goal is to become a dietician.
The awards are annually distributed to those who are mem-bers of First West Credit Union.

www.kamloopsthisweek.com A18 THURSDAY, July 30, 2015
I remember, as a young boy, my father spend-ing hours in our basement in the weeks leading to
a particular Christmas.I was warned the
depths of our home were temporarily out-of-bounds, so I sat upstairs and listened to the strange sounds from below with an over-powering sense of curi-osity and wonder.
On Christmas morn-ing, I was invited down.
He had built a won-derful model railway that would eventually take up the majority of my bedroom.
All AboardI suppose that is
why I was so excited to visit the St. Jacobs & Aberfoyle Model Railway, a delightful museum that recreates the great rail era.
I entered with a sense of anticipation similar to that December morning long ago, but nothing could have prepared me for this magnificent display.
Here, in an elaborate layout that covers 279 square metres, stood an overwhelming scene of amazing detail, replicat-ing Southern Ontario in the late 1950s.
Both of Canada’s major railways, the Canadian National and Canadian Pacific, run on separate rights-of-way.
Models of late steam locomotives and first-
generation diesels, authentically detailed for specific prototypes, provide the power.
There are more than 250 freight cars and it takes six operators in a control tower above the viewing floor to run everything.
The trains travel through scenic country-side, passing over bridg-es and through tunnels, fields, towns and the Niagara Escarpment.
A crowd pleaser is the night scene, when the room lighting dims and hundreds of tiny lights come on inside the buildings, houses and rail cars.
You can hear the lonely whistles of the trains passing through the darkness.
St. JacobsAs the model railway
invokes a hint of nos-talgia, so does a visit to the charming village of St. Jacobs, 15 kilometres north of Waterloo.
It is like stepping back in time, seem-ing as though nothing much has changed since the town’s Old Order Mennonite set-tlers arrived here in the early 1800s in Connestoga wagons from Pennsylvania.
The jingle of horse tack and the clip-clop of hooves on pavement can still be heard.
An open buggy comes into view, driven by a young lady in a long-sleeved print dress, apron and bonnet.
In another enclosed horse-drawn wagon sits an old man wearing a wide-brimmed black hat and a small boy in white shirtsleeves and suspenders.
The Mennonite farm-ers pride themselves in maintaining their unique traditions and culture.
St. Jacobs is one of the original Mennonite settlements in Ontario.
The Mennonite Story at the Visitor Centre provides fascinating insights into the history, beliefs and lifestyles of the Mennonite people.
The many heritage buildings that line the main street are now upscale boutiques, craft shops and art galleries.
You’ll see why this
region has become known as the Quilt Capital of Canada.
Work up a thirst from shopping? Drop into Block 3 Brewery to sample some delectable craft beer.
To the MarketA short drive south
of the village brings you to Canada’s largest year-round farmers’ market, a festival of sights, sounds and tastes.
Local Mennonite and Amish farmers sell their wares; fruits, vegetables, fresh-baked bread, cookies, homemade jams, cheeses, meats, clothing and even live-stock.
At its peak in the summer, the market has more than 600 vendors.
Butterfl ies are Free“Think of the
Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory as a tropi-cal escape,” says conser-vatory board chairman Doug Wilson.
With some 2,000 free-flying butter-flies imported from Costa Rica and the Philippines, the inviting enclave is an escape.
With its cascading waterfalls, 75 species of plants and plenty of birds, bugs, turtles and parrots, the conserva-tory is a nature lover’s dream.
On SafariAlso for nature lov-
ers, there is no need to head to Africa to enjoy a safari; the African
Lion Safari outside Cambridge allows visi-tors to view its collec-tion of 1,000-plus exotic birds and animals from 100 species, including lions, elephants, chee-tahs, giraffes and white rhinos.
The animals are housed in unique and naturalized environ-ments, including drive-thru game reserves.
The safari park has also earned an excel-lent reputation for their breeding, management and care of endangered species.
All this can be found in the Waterloo region, just a short drive from Toronto — where his-tory meets technology, and preservation meets innovation.

It was a junior B lacrosse champi-onship series that had it all.
On-floor heroics, off-floor drama, a revolving door of goal-tenders, clutch road wins, dev-astating home losses — and, in
the end, only one goal separated the Kamloops Venom and Vernon Tigers.
The Venom hung on to claim the Thompson Okanagan Junior Lacrosse League (TOJLL) title with a 15-14 victory over the hometown Tigers on Monday.
With the fifth and deciding instal-ment of the series tied 3-3 after the first frame, Kyle Pauwels put the Venom on his shoulders and took over the game, tallying six goals in a period that saw Kamloops outscore Vernon 11-6.
The home team made a goaltending change midway through the second-peri-od onslaught, with Jeremy Gray replacing Aaron Jensen.
Gray was greeted by Pauwels — the Snake possessed who finished the con-test with eight goals.
“It was jitters and coming in cold,” Gray told the Vernon Morning Star after the game. “It is a bad combination to start a game.
“After I got over those three break-aways, I was good. I proved something to myself by battling back tonight.”
Those who paid attention to the series were likely not surprised the Tigers stormed back in the final frame, tallying five goals in a last-ditch effort to salvage the league banner.
Vernon was resilient from start to fin-ish, recovering from a 2-0 deficit in the series to force Game 5.
The only goal Kamloops netted in the third period turned out to be the game-winning marker, scored by midget call-up Rylan Van Unen.
“Our backs were on the wall tonight,” said Pauwels, who plays field lacrosse during the schoolyear with NCAA Division 2 Pfeiffer University in North Carolina.
“We were quiet before the game. We knew it was going to be a tough one.”
Dalan Etter was not expected to get the start between the pipes for the Venom, but he played through a pulled and torn hamstring and did enough to stave off the Tigers’ late charge.
“I was sore in warm-ups but, once the adrenaline kicked in from the crowd and the music, I was fine,” said Etter, who needed help putting on his shoes before the game. “It started to hurt in the last two minutes and now it really hurts again.”
Mitch Horsman, the Venom’s other netminder, was concussed after a rocket shot struck him square on the mask in
Game 4, which Vernon won in front of about 600 rabid fans at Memorial last Thursday night.
If Etter was not able to play on Sunday, general manager Jan Antons was planning to call on a midget goaltender to start the most important game of the campaign.
The final buzzer sounded on Monday and Kamloops voices filled Kal Tire Place as the Venom passed around the TOJLL trophy and posed for a picture with the championship banner, which will soon hang in the venerable Victoria Street barn.
Throughout the epic five-game show-down there were plenty of juicy storylines that bolstered the intensity of the series as it meandered back and forth between the Interior and North Okanagan cities.
Representatives from each team refused at times to speak to media; noise-making was banned in Kal Tire Place (thanks to what Vernon deemed excessive drumming by Kamloops fans in Game 1); noise-making was encouraged by Venom staff and boom-sticks were handed out before Game 4 at Memorial in response to the Kal Tire Arena ban; and Kamloops’ use of players returning from higher levels of lacrosse remained a hot topic.
The Venom won this round of the ongoing fight, claiming their first TOJLL title since 2012, ending the Tigers’ two-year reign as champions.

Enter The Sandman Centre.
The Kamloops Blazers, Sandman Hotel Group and the City of Kamloops announced on Wednesday a 10-year naming-rights partner-ship, rebranding the downtown arena The Sandman Centre, known as Interior Savings Centre (ISC) since 2005.
The name change takes effect on Aug. 31.
Tom Gaglardi is the Blazers’ majority owner and CEO of Sandman Hotel Group, which recently opened a new signature hotel across the street from ISC.
He chose not to dis-close exact numbers, but Gaglardi said Sandman will fork up more than Interior Savings has paid for naming rights over the last decade — $120,000 per year for 10 years.
Gaglardi added Sandman was the high-est bidder in a process that included several interested parties.
Interior Savings had submitted a bid to maintain naming rights, but was informed about one week ago that the city had partnered with Sandman Hotel.
“We were keenly interested in continu-ing on,” Interior Savings senior vice-president, member of commu-nity engagement Gene Creelman told KTW. “There is a process the city follows. We had sub-mitted a good proposal.”
In reference to the relationship between Gaglardi, Sandman and
the city, Creelman said: “If you look at it from a management or a busi-ness perspective, we understand what’s need-ed there, if one reads between the lines.”
The arena opened as Riverside Coliseum in 1992 and Sport Mart Place purchased nam-ing rights and held them until 2005, when Interior Savings took over.
“We are elated to enter into a partnership with Sandman Hotel Group,” Blazers’ director of sales and market-ing Dave Chyzowski said. “Their presence throughout Canada is well-recognized.”
The Sandman Centre will host Blazers’ games and other events, including concerts, the Subway Super Series, Hockey Day in Canada and the 2016 Women’s World Hockey Championship.
“Sandman has been a proud citizen of the City of Kamloops for the past five decades and this partnership allows us to show and share some of this pride,”said Taj Kassam, president and chief operating officer of Sandman Hotel Group.
Creelman said Interior Savings was looking forward to maintaining the naming rights.
“It really does help connect the local financial institution to something that is of vital interest to the commu-nity at large,” Creelman said.
“We benefited from it and we were hopeful that was going to con-tinue.”

SPORTS
Friday was a cool day, spurts of rain landing on the newly-minted basketball hoops at Kamloops’ Riverside Park.
But, the weather didn’t stop droves of kids from hitting the court with the Tournament Capital’s most famous basketball product — Kelly Olynyk.
Olynyk spent the after-noon shooting hoops at the downtown park, offering tips to a few kids in a preview for the sold-out Olynyk Klynyk, which kicked off on Monday.
“It’s nice to give back to the community,” he said. “It’s a place for kids to play, for kids to get excited about the game of basketball. For me, basketball is everything, especially growing up, espe-cially at these kids’ age.
“You’re just spreading the love of the game, the passion for the game. It’s fun to see kids out here wanting to play, wanting to learn, wanting to get better.”
The Olynyk Klynyk wraps up today at Thompson Rivers University.
Olynyk, a centre with the NBA’s Boston Celtics, is three months into the offseason after wrapping up his second year as a professional.
The 24-year-old spoke of using the summer to improve his game. Later this summer he will be working with the Canadian national team in an effort to qualify for the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
“You’re playing at the highest level every single night — it’s basically what every kid dreams about,” he said, reflecting on his season. “It’s a lot of fun, but I’ve got a lot of room to grow and a lot of work to do still, time to get better. Hopefully, we can keep getting better as a team.”
Olynyk had plenty of opportunities to grow in his sophomore campaign, a season in which he aver-aged 10.3 points per game, 4.7 rebounds and 1.7 assists. He dealt with significant
injury for the first time in his career, missing 18 games after suffering an ankle inju-ry in a contest against the Portland Trailblazers.
He was also the centre of one of the NBA’s more memorable moments when he played an April game against the Indiana Pacers with one good eye. Olynyk was hit with an errant elbow in a pre-game shootaround with a teammate and the resulting laceration caused his eye to swell shut. Despite the injury, he went on to post 19 points, two rebounds and two assists in 22 minutes of play.
Olynyk got his first taste of the NBA Playoffs, too, and was involved in a now-infamous incident with Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love. Love underwent surgery on his shoulder earlier this year, the result of he and Olynyk becoming entangled as they battled for a loose ball in the final game of the playoffs’ first round.
Love called the play “bush-league” and alleged Olynyk pulled on his arm intentionally, intending to cause injury. Olynyk said any claims he intentionally hurt Love were “ridiculous.”
The NBA suspended Olynyk for one game. He will miss the opener of Boston’s 2015-2016 season.
Controversy aside, Olynyk spoke of enjoying his time in the NBA, despite the ebbs and flows of being a profes-sional.
“It’s up and down,” he said. “Some things you expect, some things you don’t expect.
“You’re just along for the ride. You’ve got to keep work-ing.”
A change of scenery?Also in attendance Friday
was Kelly’s sister, Maya, who made her name as a high school basketball star with the South Kamloops Titans.
Maya played her fresh-man year with the Canada
West’s Saskatchewan Huskies in 2014-2015 and averaged 1.8 points and 1.5 rebounds in 19 games coming off the bench.
While Maya said she enjoyed her first season with the Huskies, she’s now facing an uncertain future. She has spent the summer training and rehabbing a pair of ail-ing hips and will miss the coming campaign in hopes of returning to full health.
“Right now, I don’t really know,” Maya said when asked if there was a time-table for her return. “My goal is probably a year. Not this coming year, but the year after that.”
Where the former Titan will play is a bit of a mystery, too. Maya had good things to say about Saskatchewan, her coach and teammates were great, but didn’t commit to returning to the club follow-ing her injury.

Changes are com-ing to the Legacy Performance Games.
The Games, which were created using funds generated by Kamloops’ hosting of the 2011 Western Canada Summer Games, were held for the second time on the weekend.
Roughly 350 athletes from B.C., Alberta, Manitoba, the U.S. Pacific Northwest and Mexico descended on the Tournament Capital to compete in the Games’ five events (wheelchair rugby, wheelchair tennis, football, roller derby and water-skiing).
The vision for the event is to offer a Games experience for athletes who may miss out on elite competi-tions by virtue of the sports included or their age.
And, though orga-nizers believe they’re making progress in establishing the profile of the annual event — they had twice as many athletes in 2015 compared to the inau-gural Games in 2014 — there’s some room for improvement.
“We’re trying to get it into that sort of B.C. Games size — 17, 18 sports, 1,800 to 2,000 athletes — in the long run,” said Kamloops Sports Council (KSC) president Henry Pejril.
“It needs to get established. It takes a while, but it’s get-ting there. We’re actu-ally quite pleased with some of the uptake we’re getting and we’ve had some really good core sports that are sticking with us.”
The KSC had 18 sports on the docket for this year’s Games, but was down to just five by the open-ing ceremonies on Friday as there weren’t enough athletes com-mitted to run the other events.
Pejril said it was a frustrating situation, but it also pointed to a flaw in the Games’ model. Originally depending on provin-cial sports organiza-tions from around the country to organize the
sports for the Games, the KSC will be taking on the role of organizer beginning next year.
The president hopes the change will ensure the growth of the Games moving for-ward.
With about half of the legacy fund still
remaining, Pejril said he is confident in his organization’s ability to chart the new course.
He hopes to realize the KSC’s vision for a 2,000-person multi-sport Games in the next three years.
“It’s a growing thing,” he said.
“We’re getting there.”

TORONTO — Troy Tulowitzki is recover-ing from the shock of being traded, but he’s ready to start winning.
The Blue Jays’ newly acquired shortstop made it clear that he’s ready to get down to work after Tuesday’s blockbuster deal that sent him and reliever LaTroy Hawkins from the Colorado Rockies to Toronto in exchange for shortstop Jose Reyes, reliever Miguel Castro and minor-league pitchers Jeff Hoffman and Jesus Tinoco.
Tulowitzki, who played his entire 10-year career in Colorado, had long heard rumours about being traded but expected Rockies own-ership to tell him if he
was going to be moved.“To be with a differ-
ent organization now is shocking,” Tulowitzki said yesterday.
“At the same time, I’m looking forward to the future because I see a winning team, a winning culture. I know they haven’t won a World Series here in a while, so to be a part of something like that would be memorable.
“I think that’s what you play this game for, to win. I think there’s a great possibility here that that could happen and very soon.”
Tulowitzki had only been in Rogers Centre for a couple of hours when he spoke to reporters, so the little things of being in the Blue Jays’ organization still stuck out to him.
“I’m still shocked when I walk in to a
clubhouse and it’s not purple, it’s different for me,” Tulowitzki said, noting speaking with his family about the move put him at ease.
“I think as games go on and I get some games under my belt and I meet these guys, go on a road trip, win some games, I think I’ll
feel more comfortable.”Tulowitzki made
his Blue Jays debut last night night against the Philadelphia Phillies in Toronto. Hawkins debuted Tuesday in a 3-2 loss to Philadelphia, pitching a scoreless inning of relief.
The pair are moving from a Rockies team
(43-56) that is in last in the National League West, to Toronto (50-51), which is in the hunt for a wild-card spot in the American League and could pos-sibly catch the New York Yankees for top spot in the AL East.
Tulowitzki is a career .299 hitter with 188 home runs and 657 RBI. So far this season he is hitting .300 with 12 homers and 53 RBI over 87 games.
“He’s a guy that comes in, maybe gives us a big jolt,’’ Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said.
“I don’t think you can expect him to come in and save the day.
He’s in new surround-ings, you never know how long it takes a guy to get comfortable.
“But, he’s a pretty damn good player and I think he’s really going to help us.’’
Normally a mid-order hitter, Tulowitzki took Reyes’s spot as the Blue Jays leadoff man.
Reyes debutsA day after he was
acquired from Toronto, Jose Reyes was 1 for 3 with a walk and a sto-len base in his Rockies’ debut.
The four-time all-star batted second and singled in his first at-bat for Colorado, then was caught stealing.
NATIONAL SPORTS
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — The Winter Classic is coming to the home of the New England Patriots.
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman joined officials from the Boston Bruins and Montreal Canadiens yesterday to announce the Original Six rivals will meet at Gillette Stadium on New Year’s Day.
The Bruins will be the first team to host the event twice. They also hosted it in 2010, at Fenway Park.
Bettman noted that the three orga-nizations are among the most successful in their sports, with 34 championships. The Canadiens have won 24 of those, but the Patriots are the defending Super Bowl champs.
Bettman also said the league has extended the game’s title sponsorship with Bridgestone for anoth-er five years.

Obituaries & In Memoriam FRANCIS “FRANK” JOSEPH MARTINFrank passed away peacefully at home in Kamloops on July 18, 2015, at the age of 71.
Frank was born in Victoria, BC, the youngest of four children, siblings Isabella, Janette, and George. He was the last of his generation.
He joined the Canadian Navy in 1961 and worked as a stoker on the HMCS Bonaventure and HMCS Halifax. Then he worked at the Parliament buildings in Victoria until he moved to Terrace, BC in 1972. He worked as a building maintenance engineer at the N.W.C.C., Skeenaview and B.C.B.C. until 1986 when he moved to Kamloops. He retired from the government in 2007.
Frank touched the lives of many through his volunteer work. He was a Cub Leader for the 15 years he lived in Terrace and then in Kamloops volunteered for the Kamloops White Cane Club until his death.

DR. LEONARD MAHER Dr. Leonard Maher passed away peacefully at the age of 90 at the Royal Inland Hospital on July 15, 2015 with his family by his side.
He is lovingly remembered by his children Phil, Dan, Brenda, Paul and his grandchildren Eric, Rae, Emily, Monica and Laura. He was predeceased by our mother Constance, his parents Phil and Ivy, his sister Eunice and our stepmother Lila.
Dad was born at the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Edmonton, Alberta on January 20, 1925. He spent his childhood in Edmonton and Vancouver and his life revolved around study and sports. He graduated in Medicine at the University of Alberta in 1949, and after completing a year’s internship at St. Paul’s Hospital in Vancouver he stayed on for one year of post-graduate training in Pediatrics and Internal Medicine.
Dad met our mother when he was in high school and they married in 1950. In 1951, after Phil was born, they moved to Quesnel where he joined the Avery Clinic. He began a very busy family practice that extended for over a decade and balanced the needs of work, a growing family and further education. In 1953 he completed one year of Obstetrics in Edmonton at the Royal Alex and later six months of Anaesthesia at the Vancouver General Hospital.
He decided to specialize in Otolaryngology in 1961. After completing one year of training in Vancouver, he and the family moved to Richmond, Virginia, so he could spend three years at the Medical College of Virginia. Returning to the Interior of BC, Dad opened his practice in Otolaryngology in Kamloops in 1964. At that time, he was the only Otolaryngologist outside of the Lower Mainland and the only specialist in Head and Neck Trauma until 1975. As Kamloops grew with more specialists arriving, Dad decided to narrow his focus to Otology. In addition to having a very busy practice he sat on numerous hospital committees and was Chief of Medical Staff for a number of years.
Throughout his practice Dad was very conscientious and caring. He had great respect for his patients.
After having open heart surgery in 1985, he was compelled to stop practicing medicine.
Dad never strayed from his working-class background and lived a very modest lifestyle. He had a lifelong passion for learning a wide range of subjects and approached everything in a methodical and studious manner. He had a strong interest in Canadian history, politics, religious studies, and the English language. He loved the natural beauty of the Kamloops area and often explored the rest of the province. Golfing and bridge were among his favourite pastimes and he had a love for dancing. A voracious reader, he stayed abreast of current events and was always eager for a lively discussion.
During his retirement at the Rivershore Golf Estates, Dad wrote a book, Memories of a Cariboo Doctor, about his general practice in Quesnel, and in it he offers some views on changing trends in Medicine.
When his health deteriorated in 2010, Dad moved to Kamloops Seniors Village. He enjoyed living at the Village and was very appreciative of their care. He befriended many residents and his cheerful manner will be greatly missed.
Dad is deeply loved by his family and will be sadly missed.
An Evening Prayer Service will be held at Sacred Heart Cathedral, 255 Nicola Street, Kamloops, on Friday, July 31, 2015, starting at 7:00 pm. A Funeral Mass will be held at the Cathedral on Saturday, August 1, 2015, at 11:00 am, followed by a reception at the Cathedral hall.
Should friends desire, donations may be made to Royal Inland Hospital Foundation.
The family would like to thank Dr. Stefanyk, the Kamloops Seniors Village and the staff at the Royal Inland Emergency and 6 South for the care given to our father.

VIVIAN ISOBEL COSTERTON1934 - 2015
Vivian Isobel Costerton (nee McClounie) born in 1934, passed away in her sleep on July 19, 2015. She was surrounded by love and the comforts of home when she slipped her hand in His and went home.
She is predeceased by her loving husband of 57 years, Bill, and her son Johnny as well as her parents Colin and Dorothy McClounie. Those who mourn her passing include her sisters Jean (Harry) and Ruth, and her children Diane (Duncan), Sheila (Darrell), Bob (Kathy) and Nancy (Paul). Her grandchildren were her greatest joy and they will miss the Granny who impacted their lives so wonderfully. Her love is with Byron (Jelena) and their kids Adrijana and Lincoln, Allyssa (Cory), Laura, Leighton, Meghan, David, Scott, Liam, and Nicola.
Vivian’s life was interesting and rewarding. Much of her energy was spent in the service of children and the community. She attended normal school and taught in elementary schools in Vancouver and London Ontario before and after her marriage to Bill in 1955. In 1960 they journeyed to India with Diane and Johnny, in service of the Anglican Church, to help establish a medical school and for Bill to teach there. Sheila was born in 1962 in Vancouver before they returned to continue work in India. Prior to Bob’s arrival, they moved to England and then to Montreal before Nancy was born. A transfer to Calgary in 1970 enabled them to put down roots and Vivian dedicated herself to service of her family, her church, her community, and charitable organizations. She served for many years with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation on the local, regional, and national levels. In 1992 they moved to Montana where she was a dedicated volunteer in schools and church. A move back to Kamloops in 2004 brought her great joy as she relished time with children and grandchildren. She was very hospitable and gathered friends around every table.
For the vast majority of Vivian’s life, she was engaging, energetic, hardworking, generous, public spirited, active, and full of love and affection. Her health in the last stage of life made things difficult but she strived to remain gracious and friendly. The family wishes to extend their thanks to the staff at Berwick on the Park Brio unit who cared for Mom wonderfully in her last months.
A celebration of Vivian’s life will be held at St Paul’s Cathedral, at 11:00 am, on Tuesday, August 4 followed by her internment at the Pleasant Valley Cemetery in Vernon BC at 2:30 pm.
In lieu of flowers, please donate to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation in Vivian’s memory.

HARRIET AMY HETTRICK (NEE DRAKE)
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Harriet Hettrick. Mom passed away peacefully on Sunday, July 19, 2015 at the age of 73. She was the eldest of three children, and was born on December 7, 1941 to her parents, Harry and Julia Drake. Mom was predeceased by our Dad, Alfred Jerry Hettrick in 1997.
Mom and Dad were married in 1961 and moved from Saskatchewan to BC in 1963, and settled in Kamloops in 1966. In 1971, we built a cabin on property purchased at an area lake. Many weekends were spent there as a family. Mom loved fishing and the spectacular views that this recreation provided.
In her earlier years, sewing was an avid pastime. Mom enjoyed setting puzzles and spending time in her flower gardens. Mom enjoyed collecting knickknacks and her latest fondness was for hummingbirds.
After raising her family, Mom’s greatest passion was being an Avon representative. She dutifully fulfilled this passion for approximately 40 years. She received numerous awards and accolades for her achievement as a representative. She loved the company of her customers, many of which became close friends.
Mom’s warm and caring nature will be missed by all who knew her.
Harriet is survived by her sister Merle (Harvey) Hettrick, brother Ted (Ethel) Hettrick, son Raymond Hettrick, daughter Anna Marie Randles, granddaughter Vanessa (Matt) Randles, grandson Jarrett Randles, and countless others.

A VANISHED FRIENDAround the corner I have a friendIn this great city that has no end;Yet days go by, and weeks rush on,
And before I know it a year has gone,And I never see my old friend’s face,For life is a swift and terrible race.
He knows I like him just as wellAs in the days when I rang his bell,
And he rang mine. We were younger then,And now we are busy, tired men,Tired of playing a foolish game,
Tired with trying to make a name.“Tomorrow, I will call on Jim,
Just to show that I am thinking of him.” But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,
And the distance between us grows and grows,Around the corner, yet miles away
“Here’s a telegram, sir,”“Jim died today!”
And that’s what we get, and deserve in the end,Around the corner a vanished friend!

OTTAWA — It’s not just political parties that will be spend-ing money hand over fist if Prime Minister Stephen Harper fires
the starting gun for the Oct. 19 federal election weeks earlier than nec-essary.
Taxpayers will be shelling out big bucks, too — millions in extra administrative costs and tens of millions
more in rebates to par-ties and candidates for their inflated election expenses.
Speculation is ram-pant that Harper is poised to officially kick off the election cam-paign — known as the writ period — as early as this weekend.
That would make for an 11-week cam-paign, the longest federal campaign since 1926 and more than twice the five weeks typically allotted for campaigns in recent times.
Elections Canada estimates a campaign this fall of 37 days — the minimum required by law — would cost roughly $375 million to administer.
The agency was not able to estimate how much more a lon-ger campaign would cost, but spokes-woman Diane Benson acknowledged there would indeed be some
additional expenses.For instance, she
said Elections Canada will have to pay for longer office leases for returning officers in each of the coun-try’s 338 ridings; tele-phones, equipment and furniture rentals for those offices; addi-tional hours for staff; and Elections Canada staff who handle public inquiries.
A longer campaign puts the squeeze on taxpayers in other ways too, since they subsi-dize the donations that fuel campaigns and then subsidize parties and their candidates again for spending that money during a cam-paign.
Most of the money parties and candi-dates will be throwing around during the campaign comes from donations, which are worth a generous tax credit of 75 per cent on the first $400, 50 per
cent on the next $350 and 33.3 per cent on the next $500.
The Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation estimates those tax credits are worth somewhere between $16 million and $36 million per year in foregone revenue.
Each party run-ning a full slate of candidates is entitled to spend a maximum of about $25 million for a five-week cam-paign; each candidate an average of about $100,000.
But, under the recently passed Fair Elections Act, those spending limits will increase by 1/37 for each day a campaign exceeds 37 days. That’s an extra $675,000 per day for each party’s national campaign, an additional $2,700 per day for their candidates.
A campaign that is double the minimum length would effective-
ly double the spending limits and, theoretical-ly, double the amount of money parties and candidates stand to be reimbursed — by taxpayers — when it’s all over.
Parties are entitled to rebates of up to 50 per cent of their eligi-ble election expenses; candidates up to 60 per cent.
The major parties are promising to spend the maximum allowed, or very close to it.
However, few candi-dates will likely be able to afford to take full advantage of increased spending limits, mak-ing it hard to esti-mate how much their rebates could go up.
Still, the rebates will undoubtedly be considerably higher than the rebates handed out to parties and candidates after the five-week election campaign in 2011. Elections Canada esti-
mates that tab topped $60 million.
Aaron Wudrick, federal director of the taxpayers’ federation, said his organization appreciates that elec-tions, like other fun-damental democratic institutions, deserve to be properly funded. In addition, his group does not take issue with leaving the length of campaigns to the prime minister’s dis-cretion.
However, he said abuses and excessive costs could be avoided if taxpayers weren’t subsidizing donations to political parties in the first place.
“Our main position is to get rid of the sub-sidy,” Wudrick said.
“If parties had to work harder for their money and/or had less of it, they wouldn’t want longer writ periods. They’d be far more careful with their resources.”
NATIONAL NEWS
Longer federal election will cost millions moreJOAN BRYDEN THE CANADIAN PRESS
VANCOUVER — The company responsible for last summer’s collapse of a tailings dam at the Mount Polley mine site has completed the first stage of a massive recovery opera-tion.
The Ministry of Environment released yester-day a Phase 1 progress report, announcing that Imperial Metals Corp. has taken steps to stabilize a creek and to ensure water entering nearby Quesnel Lake meets provincial standards.
About 24-million cubic metres of mine water and waste gushed into area water-ways in B.C.’s central Interior when the dam’s tailings pond
failed last August.Phase 2 of the work will
continue through next sum-mer and will focus on reme-diating the impacts of the breach and assessing ecologi-cal and human health.
Work that is already started or complete includes the removal of wood debris from the lake, tailings’ contain-ment, erosion mitigation, and the protection of fish and archaeological sites, said the ministry.
“The remediation and cleanup work done over the past year is truly impressive and I thank all involved,” said Environment Minister Mary Polak in a news release.
“We recognize full environ-mental remediation will take
years and we will continue to work closely with first Nations, the local communities and the mine to ensure a compre-hensive long-term plan for monitoring, remediation and restoration is completed.”
A company spokesman was not immediately available to comment.
The ministry said stabiliz-ing Hazeltine Creek during the first phase of the remediation work was meant to make it “safe” over the winter months and when spring delivers higher water levels.
The company was respon-sible for the work, which is being overseen by the ministry.
Earlier this month, Mines Minister Bill Bennett said the government granted the com-
pany conditional approval to reopen, although he said it still had to apply for further per-mits before it can operate fully.
Bennett said the company must apply this fall for a sec-ond conditional permit to treat and discharge water from a so-called Springer pit, which is essentially an empty quarry.
By June 30, 2016, the com-pany must submit its final permit application, detailing its long-term plans for water treatment and discharge, said Bennett.
Company spokesman Steve Robertson said in early July he expected the mine to recall as many as 30 workers immedi-ately, and estimated it would take a month to start produc-tion.
MONTREAL — Two Montrealers who died in an avalanche while hiking in New Zealand were remembered yes-terday as avid outdoorsmen as well as students who were talented, creative and involved.
New Zealand police confirmed that the two bodies found in debris near a popular hiking track were those of Louis-Vincent Lessard and Etienne Lemieux, who were both Universite de Montreal industrial design students.
“They were marked by an overwhelm-ing enthusiasm and infectious good mood,” Fabienne Munch, the faculty of design’s director, said in a statement published on the university’s website.
“The school of design, its professors and classroom staff will remember their commitment and their charming smiles.”
On Facebook, a page that was set up to help locate the 23-year-old students when they went missing turned into a memorial with hundreds of messages of condolence.
One of Lessard’s co-workers at a Montreal outdoor equipment store sug-
gested organizing a run in his memory for employees.
“Louis-Vincent was planning to run a marathon in the near future,” read a poster published by Stefany Kanemy. “We said, ‘Why don’t we do it, and live his passion?’”
The families of both men issued statements yesterday to pay tribute to authorities for their attempts at finding the hikers.
Search and rescue teams found and recovered the bodies this week about 350 metres below the Kepler Track amid the avalanche debris.
