Teachers get two days to network on curriculum
Boundary District Teachers’ Association vice-president Debra Klockenbrink recently provided the School District 51 board of education with an update regarding teachers response to the soon-to-be implemented new curriculum, and the two additional non-instructional days (NIDs) slated for this school year in the district.
Speaking at the recent SD51 board meeting on Jan. 12 in Midway, she identifi ed Feb. 12 and April 18 as the added non-instructional days, designed to provide teachers an opportunity to network with their colleagues regarding the re-designed curriculum, which will be put in place for the school year beginning in September 2016. Kindergarten to Grade 9 will be fi rst out of the block with the new curriculum, followed by Grades 10-12 the following year.
The new curriculum affords teachers more fl exibility and creativity in how education is delivered and how assessments are made. It is based largely on the concept that all kids can get passionate about something that interests them—whether it’s dinosaurs, soccer or music—and that their education should be geared more toward those passions and designed as a more personal-ized educational platform.
Rather than the traditional “regurgitation” of material that student assessments are based on, students will be encouraged to concentrate on subjects that truly engage their imaginations. For instance, many parents know fi rst hand how vid-eo games are a part of life—at home and on mo-bile devices; within the new curriculum, students could turn their gaming passions into knowledge and, ultimately, into job skills.
At the meeting, Klockenbrink began by asking the hypothetical question, “What are we trying to achieve and how did we get here?” as a platform for her update to the board. She noted key dates last fall which saw the curriculum implementa-tion committee convene in November and again in December to start planning the framework around the additional non-instructional days.
A subcommittee was formed to come up with a survey to send to teachers trying to determine

AbFor Against Absent
It was a sparse crowd at the fi rst council meeting of 2016. Council met on Jan. 11 for the regular council meeting and discussed several issues including a possible hotel tax and a borrowing bylaw. Hotel tax nixed for now
The vote was close, but in the end council voted against supporting an ini-tiative to add a two per cent tax to hotels and other accommodators. Voting for the motion were coun-cillors Christine Thomp-son, Neil Krog and Colleen Ross. Voting against were Mayor Frank Konrad and councillors Chris Ham-mett and Julia Butler. A tie vote is defeated.
The proposal was brought forward by the Christina Gateway Com-munity Development Association (CDA) rep-resenting several tour-ism accommodators and non-profi t societies. They are hoping to get enough support to apply to the Ministry of Finance for ap-proval of a two per cent municipal and regional district tax (MRDT) for the designated accommoda-tion area that includes the majority of RDKB electoral areas C (Christina Lake), D (Rural Grand Forks) and E (West Boundary), and the municipalities within. Greenwood and Midway also voted to not support the hotel tax at this time.
The funds from the ho-tel tax would be intended to implement a marketing plan to help boost tour-ism in the region. Council asked staff to get more de-tails and revisit the issue at a future council meeting.
“I think the concept in principle is good—to promote tourism in the Boundary region,” said Hammett at council. “The key is the Boundary re-gion because we’re all tied
together. Right now as it stands there are no par-ticipants west of Grand Forks…I want people to understand that if we vote on this it only includes Grand Forks and Christina Lake.” Council reports
Thompson - Councillor Thompson reported that she attended the Boundary Museum and Interpretive Centre’s volunteer appre-ciation afternoon on Dec. 15. She added that she had an opportunity to talk to several of their board members along with many others who volunteer.
She also attended the Phoenix Foundations monthly meeting on Dec. 16. “The board did a de-briefi ng on the annual so-cial held at the Christina Lake Community Hall in November,” she wrote. “The turn-out was quite disappointing and it was felt that perhaps the board should consider having this annual event at a dif-ferent time and in Grand Forks at hopes of attracting more people to attend.”
Ross - Councillor Ross reported that she was saddened to hear of the passing of Roy Ronaghan. “Roy was an inspiration to me, and many people in our community,” she said. “I will miss his challenging and informative editori-als in the local paper, as well as his kind-ness, dedication and encouragement to continue to press for social and environ-mental justice in all that we do.”
Ross also talked about movie This Changes Everything, which was played recently at the GEM. The fi lm is about the impact of disaster
capitalism, unchecked and profi t-at-any-cost devel-opment and growth. Asset management
Council voted 5-1 (with Butler opposed) in favour of adopting Asset Man-agement Financial Policy 808. The policy details principles and policies to guide staff and council.
“There is approximate-ly $32 million in infra-structure that has passed its service life, known as ‘infrastructure backlog.’ An investment of $3.85 million is needed each year for asset renewal,” stated the background in-formation. “Council has determined that they city will attain the funding target for infrastructure renewal using a balanced approach.” Year in Review
City CAO Doug Al-lin gave a presentation to council regarding the high-lights of 2015 for the city. Allin talked about many of the initiatives and proj-ects the city undertook the
past year including asset management, dealing with the wildfi res, economics, purchasing the new ladder truck for the fi re depart-ment, community livabili-ty and community engage-ment.
Borrowing bylaw ap-proved
Council approved the fi nal reading of the rev-enue anticipation borrow-ing bylaw (bylaw 2019) unanimously at the Jan. 11 regular council meeting. The bylaw will allow the city to borrow money to
cover obligations during the period of Jan. 1 and the property tax payment due date of the fi rst working day after July 1.
The background infor-mation stated, “Although the city has enough cash on hand to cover its obli-gations for a considerable length of time, the adop-tion of an annual revenue anticipation bylaw is a requirement of the city’s banking contract with the Grand Forks and District Credit Union as it covers the city’s overdraft.” Water regulations bylaw
passes By a vote of 5-1 (with
Butler opposed) council passed fi nal reading of the water regulations bylaw No. 1973-A1. The new by-law will allow for an ex-tension for the deadline for water meter installations to July 31, 2016. It also cleans up some language/billing concerns.
The background infor-mation states that city staff are currently working on completing the universal water metering project with both pit meter and in-side meter installations.

With more than a month left in the season the Grand Forks Border Bruins have qualifi ed for the KIJHL play-offs for the fi rst time in about 20 years.
The last time the Bruins sniffed post-season ac-tion, Jean Chretien was Prime Minister, Hanson had the top song with Mmm Bop and Titanic was the top movie. In fact many of the current Bruins weren’t even born when the franchise last played in the playoffs.
The Bruins have shown great improvement this year thanks to gritty play and hard work. The new coaching staff this year (Emery Olau-son and Britt Ouellette) have instilled discipline and a strong work ethic and the players have fol-lowed suit.
The last third or so of the season won’t be easy. The top KIJHL teams have also all improved and none will take the Bruins lightly, especially after three wins over top-seeded Beaver Valley.
With most of the team eligible to return next season, the Bruins look to have a bright future. This year, though, with hard work and some breaks it’s not out of the question for GF to think divisional fi nals. Now that would be a great end-ing.
Kudos to Bruins

Things people think I do as a reporter
I’m trying something a little bit different with my column. As you may have noticed I’ve make a few pie charts. Writing about this and that is great but from time to time I yearn to try something different. Stretch my creative juices if I can mix a meta-phor. Believe me this will not be a regular thing. If it goes over well I may break out the pie charts at a later date but it was not an easy thing. I am not graphically very creative. I leave that to our excel-lent production team (Della and Dustin). I prefer to be creative with my writing and photogra-phy.
In order to do these pie charts I started with Libre Offi ce, be-cause I don’t have MS Excel at home. After several YouTube vid-
eos and lots of practice I got the right(ish) text, font, pie size, etc. Than I had to convert that to Ex-cel at work. Not bad. And then insert it into our InDesign for the pages of the newspaper. If something wasn’t right I had to go back to Excel, fi x it and redo it, easy-breezy. It was fun but a fair bit of work all in the name of trying something different.
If you liked the pie charts let us know, if not no problem. I’ll be back in a couple of weeks with a regular column about hockey or council or music or deer or deer
playing music. I want to end with a few
words about our dear, departed friend Roy Ronaghan. Roy was quite the opposite of me. He was introverted, quiet, smart, very focussed. We didn’t always
get along but I always respected his thoughtful columns. He was great for second opinions and thoughts on council, city issues and so on.
He will be missed around here.

Opinion
Letters to the editor Let’s move ahead on election reform
Voters made clear choices for change in the federal election, and one of those choices was for electoral reform. The Liberals, NDP and Green parties all loudly pledged that the 2015 election would be the last held in Canada under the first-past-the-post voting system, and those par-ties collectively received nearly two-thirds of the popular vote in the election.
Why did these promises resonate with most Canadians? Because too many feel that their vote doesn’t count in the present system. The re-cent federal election resulted in a large Liberal majority, despite the fact that the Liberals only received 39 per cent of the popular vote. Coinciden-tally, this was the same level of popu-lar vote that gave the Conservatives a strong majority in Ottawa in the 2011 election. The time for an electoral system that better reflects the views of Canadians is long overdue.
The NDP ran on a promise to bring in proportional representation—a system that would combine the geographical riding representation we have now with a selection of MPs based on overall popular vote. This would create a parliament where the proportion of MPs from each party would match the proportion of the popular vote received. While some are concerned that this would create more minority parliaments, it can easily be shown that minority governments generally promote cooperation and collaboration among parties and work well in most democratic countries around the world.
The Liberals ran on a promise to simply change the electoral system, stating that they would consult Canadians in some manner to select an alternative to first-past-the-post. Justin Trudeau says he personally would like to see a preferential ballot, even though that system that would create more false majorities instead of fewer. We can only hope that the consultation process will settle on a new method that will be a significant improvement on the old one.
Before the House of Commons broke for Christmas, the Conserva-tives repeatedly called for the government to hold a referendum on this issue, claiming that this would be the only democratic way to choose a new electoral system. And in a truly ironic twist, they recently threat-ened to block any electoral change bill in the decidedly undemocratic Senate.
I think Canadians have already signalled that the government should move ahead on electoral reform, joining over 90 per cent of the world’s developed countries that have abandoned first-past-the-post. They want a new system that will make every vote count and fight political cynicism across the country. People are naturally skepti-cal—even afraid—of changing a system they know well. I like Nathan Cullen’s suggestion to let the people decide whether to keep the new system after a couple of elections—then they’d be choosing based on knowledge, not on fear of the unknown.

Contest sends strong message
Silence is not always golden
Editor, The Gazette:I wanted to thank the staff
of the Grand Forks Gazette and all the sponsors of the 2016 shopping spree contest. My name was drawn at the Extra Foods store, which made me one of the lucky 18 final contestants.
The draw for the ultimate
winner of the shopping spree was held at the Gazette office and was well attended by fi-nalists and their spouses, staff and local dignitaries. Along with the tasty appies was the strong message of thank you for supporting local businesses which was well received by those in attendance.
I would like to thank Extra Foods for the $25 gift certifi-cate I received as a runner-up and congratulate the ultimate winner.
Thanks again, Grand Forks…way to go!
Lynn Whyte,Grand Forks
Editor, The Gazette:On Thursday, Jan. 7, we
were privileged to attend the documentary film This Changes Everything based on Naomi Klein’s international research. Her conclusion is that unlim-ited economic growth is not sustainable for our planet, nei-ther from economic, social or environmental points of view.
Although from an econo-mist’s perspective this may be essential ot our ongoing finan-cial success, it is not possible in a finite world.
A discussion period was held after the film, mostly about some local concerns which are very important. However, some of these concerns will mean very little if the unlimited growth and corporate project model of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and the Canadian-European Trade Agreement (CETA) are passed into law. If these agree-ments are ratified, truly, “this changes everything.”
I encourage your readers to familiarize themselves with
the impacts that these trade agreements will have on us, as Canadians in particular, but also as world citizens and also encourage your readers to make their opinions known to the prime minister, the minis-ter of international trade and our local MP, Richard Can-nings. Silence in this case is not “golden.”
Finally a big “thumbs up” to those who brought this film to the GEM Theatre.

Thumbs up to the Station Pub for sponsoring a fabulous eve-ning of skiing at Phoenix Saturday night. Beautiful conditions and a great turnout.
Thumbs up for those ongoing donations of bottles and cans for Special Olympics. We appreciate you folks.
For the record
Results of the Royal Conservatory of Music exams which were fea-tured in the Dec. 30 is-sue of the Grand Forks Gazette require clarifica-tion:
It was Jake Webster, not Jack, who passed his Piano Grade 2 with Honours.
Jack Sawyer’s name was omitted, but he did indeed proudly pass his Grade 5 Piano exam with First Class Hon-ours.

Looking for a new place to put your passion?Consider getting involvedGrand Forks Credit Union (GFCU) has been serving our members – wholive near and far – since 1949. We are a member-owned financial cooperative. Each and every one of our members makes a difference to our well-being – both as a locally owned and operated company and ascitizens living and contributing together within our communities.
Imagine, if you will, the 19 original founders of our credit union meeting at the Grower’s Exchange one August evening in 1949 and contributing $30 each. Granted its charter on August 22, 1949, the Credit Union started attracting attention.
Within a year, 50 members had joined and assets were over $400. Today, we are almost 9,000 members strong with more than $220 million dollars in assets providing a full range of competitive financial products and services and continually re-investing into our communities.
What would the Boundary be like if the credit union had never been born– or suddenly disappeared today? From the beginning, our job has beento make a way for regular people to access financing to help them livetheir dreams… originally for farmers and small business. We’ve stayed trueto our purpose, continuing in the tradition of the cooperative movement.
How do I express my interest to run in the election?If you are interested in becoming acandidate in the 2016 Board ofDirectors’ Election, please downloadthe Candidates’ Intro Kit which out-lines what is required of a Director interms of time and qualifications. Andplease email us at [email protected] express your interest in having amember of our Member &Community Relations Committeecontact you. What is GFCU looking for in its prospective candidates?GFCU needs leaders who bring withthem a broad range of skills andattributes that strongly align withour values and that support andstrengthen the current Board’s ongoing commitment to implementing our strategic vision. Did you know…?Credit unions, called by variousnames around the world, are mem-ber-owned, not-for-profit financialcooperatives that provide savings,credit and other financial services
to their members. Credit unionmembership is based on a commonbond, a linkage shared by saversand borrowers who belong to aspecific community, organization, religion or place of employment. Credit unions pool their members’ savings deposits and shares to finance their own loan portfolios rather than rely on outside capital. Members benefit from higher returns on savings, lower rates on loans and fewer fees on average.Credit unions worldwide offer mem-bers from all walks of life much morethan financial services. They providemembers the chance to own theirown financial institution and helpthem create opportunities such asstarting small businesses, growingfarms, building family homes andeducating their children. Regardless of account size in the credit union, each member may run for the volunteer board of directors and cast a vote in elections. In some countries, members encounter their first taste of democratic decision making through their credit unions.* *WOCCU.org website excerpt

Crews use break to finish projectsSchool District 51 held its regular
board meeting Tuesday, Jan. 12 at the Boundary Learning Centre in Midway. Board members busy with concerts
Superintendant Kevin Argue and Director of Learn-ing Doug Lacey were both kept busy during December, taking in most of the district’s school Christmas concerts, including those at West Boundary, Hutton, Perley, Bea-verdell and Christi-na Lake elementary schools, along with GFSS, as well as the BCSS production of All Shook Up. November also busy for superintendent
Argue attended the B.C. School Su-perintendent’s Association Fall con-ference in Vancouver from Nov. 18-20 and the B.C. School Trustees Associa-tion’s Winter Academy, also in Van-couver, from Nov. 26-28. Maintenance crews busy over holi-days
Several maintenance projects were completed over the Christmas break.
Perley had its library painted and re-carpeted and a handicap washroom installed; GFSS had new linoleum laid in the staff room, the school’s gymna-
sium floor was refinished and the auditorium robotic lights were cleaned and the new sound system installa-tion completed.
Additionally, the weight room equipment at BCSS was moved from the work-out room to the stage area in the gymnasium. New systems installations imminent
Dust removal systems for both GFSS and BCSS are set to be i n s t a l l e d ,
though both projects are a little behind schedule due to the late arrival of specific ductwork required. The board hopes to have both systems up and running for the be-ginning of the next se-mester on Feb. 1. Both installation projects went to tender, with Kelowna’s D&G Me-
chanical successful in winning both jobs.
Technological updates completed
The IT department was busy over the holidays, making technological updates throughout the district. These include:
• Software updates on all switches • Deployment of PaloAlto firewalls
to BWCS, BES, WBES, MES, BCSS, GES, and CLES (in preparation for NGN / PLNet transition)
• Began migrating fiber sites off PLNet hardware (preparation for NGN / PLNet transition)
• Upgrades to phone systems to current shipping version
• Added additional network drops for GFSS TV Studio computers
• Completed installa-tion of fiber terminations in datacenter for City/RDKB offices
• Replaced UPS’s in WBES and IT building for servers Student numbers up slightly
Enrollment across the district remains steady, with a slight increase of 26 students from Septem-ber to December 2015. J.A. Hutton and Big White El-ementary schools saw the sharpest increase, with nine and 12 respectively.

what understanding they had of the new curriculum and areas they felt they needed more experience with. Seventy-four teachers responded to the survey, 63 of which reported that they were comfortable using the new curriculum website, and 57 reporting that they had significantly explored the new curriculum.
Many teachers reported having already experi-mented with the different components of the cur-riculum—Big Ideas, Core Competencies and Cur-ricular Content, though less than half reported that they have changed their reporting and assessment practices.
On Jan. 11, the planning committee, comprised of 7.5 teachers and 2.5 administrators (10 altogeth-er; some have dual roles within their schools and are considered half teacher, half administrator) met to set a more definitive schedule and picture of the Feb. 12 session. The committee felt that minimum orientation would be required for teachers navigat-ing the curriculum website, but was concerned about the groupings of teachers during the session. It was deemed important that the committee recognize and respect the varied amounts of knowledge and expe-rience that teachers have regarding the new curricu-lum, as well as their different questions and needs.
“We are all coming at it from a different place with different levels of knowledge and experience,” said Klockenbrink, “and we all have different questions.”
The committee decided to adopt an organic “ed-camp” format for both non-instructional days that would have no set schedule. Rather, teachers will be asked to arrive at the session armed with specific goals and questions around the new curriculum. Ses-sion coordinators will then group the teachers based on similar themes to maximize teachers’ experiences throughout the day.
There will be no classes on the non-instructional days.

With a new venue, the Grand Forks Rotary Club’s 8th annual Scotch Tasting event promises to be bigger and bet-ter than ever.
The Scotch Tasting event is moving to the curling club from gallery 2 and will be held on Saturday, Jan. 30. Tickets are only $35 and are available at Sears in Grand Forks.
“The preparations are go-ing well,” said Gord Nichols, organizing committee chair. “The venue has been booked, we have our licence, we’ve pur-chased our scotches. Our main challenge right now is trying to sell tickets. We want to sell at least 80 tickets.”
Nichols said sales have been decent so far with almost two-thirds of the tickets sold. “We’re doing okay but we do need to have a few more tickets sold by the end of the month,” he said.
With the Rotary Spray Park in City Park completed in Octo-ber, the club has no major proj-ects on the horizon at this time, but Nichols said the money raised at the Scotch Tasting will help with local and internation-al projects.
Once again there a number of new Scotches on the menu and one or two old favourites. One of the highlights is an $88 Scotch from India (Amrut) and a $145 21-year-old Aberfeldy Highlands.
Other Scotches are a 12-year-old Benraich Sherry Matured from Speyside; 12-year-old Caol Ila from Islay; 13-year-old Craigellachie from Speyside; Oban Little Bay from High-lands and an 18-year-old Toma-tin from the Highlands.
“It’s getting harder to find the higher quality scotches that are on the LCB (Liquor Con-trol Board) list (that we haven’t used),” said Nichols. “But so far we’re doing okay. We also try to
spread them out throughout the Scotch-producing regions of Scotland (Islay, Highlands and Speyside). This year we’ve got one scotch from India. In the past we’ve had Scotches from Canada and Japan. This time we’re trying a Scotch from India.”
Nichols says the Scotch Tast-ing is an informal event and everyone gets five drink tickets. There are also finger foods to snack on.
“We’ll also have a selection of wines and beer for people who want to try those,” he said. “We have a designated driver program for $15. The designat-ed driver can participate in the food and soft drinks.”
There is also a safe ride home by donation.
Nichols also noted that there are tables and chairs and peo-ple can sit down and socialize as they sample several savoury Scotches.

Derby features snow carving too
Scotch Tasting set for Jan. 30
Thank you to the Crows-nest Keep for hosting our (get ready) snow-carving contest!
This year to help promote our Wilgress Lake Snow Carv-ing Contest at the Wilgress Lake Fishing Derby Feb. 6-8, we are hoping to capture more interest for those families; again, it is about having fun as well as a chance to win big at
Wilgress Lake. There is a first, second and third place, so don’t miss out.
There is lots going on up at Wilgress. We also will have a snowshoe race for the kids and prizes for each race. For those who would like to fish and don’t have equipment and rods, come and see us at the booth and we will help you.
Remember you must have a fishing licence if over 16 years of age.
Last but not least is our ever-so-popular “For the Love of Fishing” Valentine’s Draw. This great idea is a chance for the fisherman to bring home a super gift basket filled with many items from all our super merchants of Grand Forks. It’s not just about fishing; it’s about our loved ones as well.
So please come on out and support us and have fun with your family.

Christina Lake’s Winter-fest kicks off Thursday, Jan. 28 and runs until Saturday, Jan. 30 with a full program includ-ing plenty of family activities, the Amanda Koppin Memorial Snow-pitch Tournament, ball hockey, pancake breakfast, and the polar dip!
“Winterfest puts a smile on the face of Boundary residents in the middle of winter,” said Grace McGregor, RDKB direc-tor for Christina Lake. “It really brings friends and neighbours together.”
Ben Koppin has been key to organizing the newly-named Amanda Koppin Memorial Snow-pitch Tournament.
“We lost an amazing, fun-loving, proud member of the Lake this year. The community has chosen to honour her by naming the snow-pitch tourna-ment after her,” he commented.
“Amanda would talk very highly of this event and it was her favourite activity at the Lake. She was so happy to
move home and be able to be part of the fun for the past few years. It is our goal to represent her by having a heck of a good time!”
Family activities start with Open Mic at 7 p.m. on Thurs-day at the Welcome Centre fol-lowed by movie night at 6 p.m. Friday at the community hall. Indoor games run 9:30 - 11:30 a.m. Saturday at the hall after a pancake breakfast.
The polar dip has changed to Saturday at noon to include more people that may not be up to a top of the morning swim. Participants will receive vouch-ers for the concession run by the Christina Lake Sorority—you know the food will be ex-cellent. Dress up in your best swimming costume.
Please email [email protected] or phone 250-447-6165 for more information.

On Friday, Jan. 22, join the Grand Forks and District Public Library and Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy for a Family Literacy Day “Let’s Play Together” event to raise awareness of the importance of lit-eracy and engaging in play-based literacy activities as a family.
The event celebrates Family Lit-eracy Week, an annual campaign that honours family literacy in B.C. Family Literacy Week builds on ABC Life Literacy Canada’s Family Literacy Day, a national awareness initiative created in 1999 and cel-ebrated annually across Canada on Jan. 27.
Literacy is important for all Brit-ish Columbians, including children and families.
Families who engage in play-based literacy activities when chil-dren are young see positive effects on both the children and parents/caregivers.
Simple activities offer rich oppor-
tunities for interaction and learning. These activities help create healthy relationships and help prepare chil-dren to enter school.
In Grand Forks the “Lets Play Together” family literacy event will be held at the library from 2 p.m. – 4 p.m.
It will be fun for all ages! Music, fun, games, photo booth, make a co-louring book, food, door prize, and a family musical workshop with Lee-za runs from 2:15 - 3:15 p.m.
In addition, Decoda Literacy So-lutions is celebrating family literacy with a province-wide online photo contest (#FLW2016) to encourage people to share their family literacy activities.
Decoda has also developed free “Let’s Play Together!” activity sheets for families and programs that work with young children.
To learn more about family litera-cy, get information on the #FLW2016 Photo Contest, or to download “Let’s Play Together!” activity sheets, go to decoda.ca.
‘Play together’ for Family Literacy Day
SHEILA DOBIESubmitted to the Gazette
Public library and CBAL join together for Literacy Day event
Take the time to write with a free workshop in February
Learn to write with confi-dence in a supportive and fun environment during a free 30-hour writing workshop being hosted by the Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy.
Grand Forks writer Erin Per-kins will be leading the Writing Out Loud curriculum, which starts Feb. 2 and carries on twice a week for five weeks.
“We all have stories to tell but don’t always have the confi-dence to tell them,” Perkins said. “The Writing Out Loud course will provide writers of all lev-els the opportunity to gain the skills and confidence necessary to write whatever they want—from personal journaling to short stories.”
Writing Out Loud is a 30-hour adult writing program designed to inspire and encourage writ-ers at all skill levels to improve their written work. The one-and-a-half-hour sessions will include free writing exercises, great dis-cussions and information on how to further expand and enjoy the writing experience.
No writing experience neces-
sary, just the desire to learn.Perkins has more than 20
years experience as a communi-cations professional including 15 years as a journalist and manag-ing editor for newspapers in B.C. and the Northwest Territories. She has a Bachelor of Arts De-gree in English from Vancouver Island University in Nanaimo.
Preregistration is required. To register, contact Sheila Dobie, CBAL Boundary Community Literacy Coordinator, at [email protected] or by calling her at 250-584-4109.
Students should bring a pen or pencil and a notepad for the writing exercises.
Writing Out Loud will be held on Tuesdays and Thursdays
from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. in the meet-ing room at gallery 2, 524 Central Ave. Grand Forks.

CROSSWORD

DEC. 9 ,2015
SEE NEXT WEEK’S GAZETTE FOR SOLUTION
Quote of the Week:History is indeed little more than the register of the crimes, follies and misfortunes of mankind.– Edward Gibbon (1737 - 1794)
Joke of the Week:Ted said to his friend, “can you lend me $10?” “But I only have $8” his friend replied. “� at’s OK, you can always owe me the other $2!”
In our small communities, many talented, energetic people have ideas about how to make life better in the Boundary. We want that, of course.
We want to notice: when there are people without somewhere warm and safe to sleep; sports ac-tivities missing for kids; few op-tions for adults wanting to read better; or a lack of opportunities for artistic expression. “Ideas” people start connecting with oth-ers—and work together to make something happen.
This is how we “got” the muse-ums we have; our library, art gal-lery, community choir, the wom-en’s transition house, sports teams and on and on. This process still happens. New groups emerge, get folks behind a vision, and push to make positive changes.
A critical moment often occurs in this process, when a group re-alizes that it needs an injection of cash to accomplish their goals. Not a lot of cash, necessarily, but some. To get the ball rolling, so to speak.
Service clubs, churches and lo-cal businesses (large and small) and other organizations are fre-quently approached with appeals to help fi nance projects. Local
government offi cials (city coun-cils, and regional directors) have been tapped for funds often. And all have, and continue to, help tre-mendously.
Grand Forks City Councillor Christine Thompson shares: “In 1997 a group of local citizens ap-proached Grand Forks City Coun-cil with a proposal to establish a community foundation. Coun-cil felt this proposal had merit, and in celebration of Canada’s Centennial passed a resolution to contribute $100,000 to help in es-tablishing the foundation.”
Together with donations from individuals and groups the Phoe-nix Foundation was created, al-most 20 years ago, to provide another source of fi nancial assis-tance. We invest donations and only the interest on those invest-ments are distributed each year. Community needs are closely monitored and the community has a voice in deciding which
projects should be supported.“Why I support the Phoenix
Foundation,” said Area C/Chris-tina Lake regional district direc-tor Grace MacGregor, “is that with the foundation there is more granting available to groups.
“The money coming from gov-ernment has been drying up, and that’s what it is going to continue to do. I do have the grant-in-aid program, but have many restric-tions about who and for what I can provide money. Building up the funds at Phoenix Founda-tion is a good strategy for future grants in our area.”
Since 1998, through the Phoenix Foundation Commu-nity Grants Program alone, $427,532.18 has fl owed back into Boundary communities. In 2015 we received 20 letters with ap-proximately $152,090 requested. Twelve projects were approved, which were valued at $39,809.45. So you can see that many requests for community grants still remain unfulfi lled. That’s why we still need to raise more. Check us out: www.phoenix-foundation.ca.
In the next column, we ad-dress: Besides community grants, what else does the Phoenix Foun-dation give money toward?

A new business offering lo-cal vendors an opportunity to sell their wares in one location opened recently here in Grand Forks. Exhibit A Artisan Mar-ket Place opened in November 2015 just in time for the Christ-mas season.
“We have spaces here that artisans and crafters rent and display their products,” said owner CloAnne Morasse. “It’s a constantly evolving change of products, gift and other items for people to come in and pur-chase.”
Morasse said the artisan/crafter does not have to be in the building selling their prod-ucts.
“It’s not a craft fair, it’s more of a real estate storefront,” she said. “It’s a market place. You bring your stuff in and we sell it. The crafter or artisan rents their space and pays a small commission for sales.”
Morasse said they have about a dozen shops set up at Exhibit A currently. She expects that number to expand once they are able to finish renova-tions.
“We have three more spots reserved for the next month or so,” she said. “In February we will have room for 12 addition-
al vendors. There will be a total of 30 vendors or artisans in here at that point with the potential for expansion after that.”
Morasse said she is still look-ing at making improvements to the location including putting in a stained floor and a row of booths down the centre in the upcoming months.
“We’ll also do some painting and some decorating,” she said.
Morasse’s Exhibit A Arti-san Market Place shares the old What About Bob’s/T&T building with her husband’s Indigo Wood wood carving business.
The couple have lived in Grand Forks since 2005. They came to the Boundary from Squamish where they operated a store for about 15 year.
“We were driving through one day and it just called to us and felt like home,” said Mo-rasse. “We decided to check it out. We spent about a year look-ing at places and finally found a spot we wanted and purchased it and made the move.”
Morasse said they love the sunshine and the friendliness of the people as well as the ev-er-present deer. “I’m really ap-preciative of the response from people in the short time we’ve been open,” she said. “The ven-dors are all excited and they are helping to spread the word.”
Morasse said Exhibit A has a variety of different crafters and artisans in place. She said they do have seasonal ones that have moved on but she stresses they are always adding new vendors and new products.
“Most of them here have signed on long-term,” she said. “They’ve signed on for a year with renewal options after that. We have three-, six- and 12-month options. We have crafters come and go. It will al-ways be evolving as far as what is in here.”
Morasse said that she has already had a great response from the community. “I’ve had an amazing response already,” she said. “We’ve had a steady stream of customers come in to the store. People are respond-ing well to the idea of being able to come in and find the crafter or artisan that they’re used to around here. The craft-ers and artisans are excited themselves to be able to have a space to show their stuff and that they don’t have to be here to sell it.”
Exhibit A has a variety of crafting and artisans wares in-cluding knitting, wood turning, high end sewing, jewelry, pa-jama bottoms, and much more.
The store is currently open from Wednesday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

So many benefits to stretch-ing
Stretching, in its most ba-sic form, is a natural and automatic action. People of-ten stretch instinctively after waking from sleep or after long periods of inactivity. While the benefits of daily ex-ercise are numerous and well known, the benefits of a regu-lar stretching routine are far less emphasized but just as im-portant. Incorporating stretch-ing into your daily workouts or into your regular day on their own is just as important to health and body functioning as regular exercise.
The most established and obvious benefit of stretching is to help improve flexibility and range of motion. As the body ages, muscles can become tight-er and range of motion in the joints can be minimized. A lack of flexibility can cause move-ment to become slower and less fluid, making an individ-ual more susceptible to muscle strains or other soft tissue in-juries. This can put a damper on active lifestyles and even hinder day-to-day, normal mo-tions. An increase in flexibility is accompanied by improved balance and coordination. Chronically tense and tight
muscles can also contribute to poor posture. Stretching helps to ensure correct posture by lengthening tight muscles that pull areas of the body away from their intended po-sition. Stretching the muscles of the lower back, chest and shoulders can help keep the spine in better alignment and improve overall posture. A buildup of stress causes your muscles to contract, becoming tense. This tension can go on to have a negative impact on just about every part of your body. Like all types of exercise, flex-ibility exercises like stretching have powerful stress-busting abilities.
Spending just a short amount of time (10-15 min-utes) stretching each day can help calm the mind, providing a mental break and giving your body a chance to recharge.
Retired physiotherapist Gisela Ko offers Stretching for Mobility on Tuesday after-noons from 1 - 2 p.m. and again on Friday mornings from 11 –
12 p.m. A drop-in fee of $2 ap-plies.
Gisela offers Stretching for Mobility at the Christina Lake Community Hall on Wednes-day afternoons from 1 – 2 p.m. A drop-in fee of $2 applies.
Winter activities don’t have to be costly
Snowshoeing and cross country skiing are two fun, so-cial winter recreational activi-ties that you can do without a huge cost.
GFREC is offering an intro-ductory snowshoe/cross coun-try workshop for women ages 16 and over to try both winter activities. The focus of the pro-gram is to help inactive women find an activity that will get them outdoors during the win-ter months and become active while having fun and meeting new friends.
Registration fee is $10 which includes equipment rental. The event will be scheduled on Sunday, Feb. 14 from 10 – 2 p.m. Space is limited so please call today to register.

Bruins end playoff droughtThe Grand Forks Border
Bruins are heading to the play-offs for the first time in over 20 years. Despite falling to Castlegar Sunday at home in overtime, the Bruins clinched a play-off spot with the single point and a Spokane loss.
The Bruins fell behind early on in the second after giving up two power play goals in the first 11 minutes. Goals from Trey Mason at 8:10 and Nico Sidoni at 4:49 of the first evened the score.
Carson Woning put Castlegar up 3-2 with a late first period goal. GF tied the score again midway through the second period with Mason’s second goal. Chad Grambo put the Bruins up 4-3 with a power play goal at 15:20 of the third as-sisted by Bryson Yee and Logan Casavant. The Rebels were far from done though as Tyler Barrett evened the score with 11:27 left in the third. With no one scoring after
that, the two teams headed for overtime.
Garrett Patterson scored the game-winner for Castlegar at the 4:27 mark of overtime as-sisted by Wornig and Barrett leaving Grand Forks with one-point for the overtime loss.
The single point moves the Bruins into sole possession of third place in the Neil Murdoch division and ensures a play-off spot for a squad that hasn’t tasted play-off action in over two decades. With only five wins and 14 points in 41 games, the fifth place Spokane Braves
are mathematically eliminated. With four straight losses the Bruins sit at 16 wins-20 losses-4 overtime losses, good for 36 points.
The Border Bears will try to get back on track this weekend with an away game in Kelowna against the Chiefs and a home game Saturday against the Fer-nie Ghostriders.
Bear bites - Chad Grambo leads the bruins in scoring with 28 points (12 goals) in 24 games. Dylan Haney is second with 26 points (13 goals) in 37 games.

Local curlers heading to BC Winter GamesOn Jan. 15, the Juvenile Boys Curling Team
of Colin Anderson, Devin Anderson, Elliott Starchuk and Dawson Reid from Grand Forks travelled to Invermere to play off for the right to represent Zone 1 at the BC Winter Games.
The team make up is as follows: Skip – Colin Anderson, Third – Devin Anderson, Second – El-liott Starchuk, and Lead – Dawson Reid.
The first game was held at 7 p.m. Friday night at the Invermere Curling Club.
The game was a closely fought battle with the teams exchanging single points in the first two ends. The third end was blanked. The Geiger rink took two points in the fourth end to have a two point lead going into the fourth end break.
The Anderson rink was forced to a single point in the fifth end but stole one in the sixth end to tie the game up at three. Geiger was forced to one in the seventh end to have the lead coming home in the final end.
Anderson was able to get one to tie the game
up and force and extra end. The game went to the Anderson rink in the extra end with a steal of one.
Game 2 was played Saturday morning at 10 a.m. This game started with a blank end followed by Geiger getting his two points in the second end. The Anderson rink came back with a very strong end in the third end and took four. They continued to force the play in the fourth end and stole one going into the break.
The score after four ends of play was 5-2 for the Anderson rink. The Geiger team came back in the fifth end and took three tying up at five all.
The sixth end saw the Anderson rink respond strongly getting their two for a 7-5 lead. Geiger was forced to one point in the seventh end. The Anderson rink started the eighth end one up with the hammer.
Geiger’s last shot was a draw attempt but he came up light, meaning that Anderson did not have to throw his last rock. The Anderson rink won the game by a score of 7-6.
The Anderson rink will now represent Zone 1 in the BC Winter Games in Penticton in February.
The Anderson rink from Grand Forks will be prepresenting the Kotoenays at the BC Winter Games after qualifying last weekend in Invermere. Submitted photo

The GFSS Wolves won one and lost one in West Kootenay junior girls basketball league action this past week.
On Jan. 13 the girls travelled to Castlegar and knocked off the Stanley Humphries Coyotes 39-22 led by 10 points each from Victoria Henne and Tara Ma-kortoff.
“It was a good win for us,” said coach Craig Lindsay. “We had a few new play-ers in who had missed some time so we
were able to integrate them successfully. Our press worked well and our defence overall was pretty solid.”
On Monday the Wolves were on the road once again to face top-ranked L.V. Rogers Bombers.
The game was close early with the host Bombers up one at half 22-21; how-ever, costly turnovers and missed shots doomed the Wolves in the second half as they fell 44-30. Makortoff led GFSS with 14 points, while Henne scored eight.
“We lost focus in the second half,”
said Lindsay. “After a strong first half we struggled to take care of the ball and make our easy shots.”
Lindsay said the team is showing signs of improvement but will need to work hard in practice. “We’re running a lot of new plays and there is a lot of confusion,” he said. “Hopefully we can get everyone understanding our systems in the next few weeks.”
The team plays J.L. Crowe in Trail on Wednesday before taking a week off for exams.

SUBMITTEDto the Grand Forks Gazette
The junior Wolves of Grand Forks Secondary are still undefeated follow-ing two more victories in the last week. However, the victories came in very dif-ferent fashion.
GFSS faced rival Stanley Humphries (Castlegar) in their home gymnasium on Jan. 13.
Castlegar came in the more prepared squad after already competing in nine games compared to the wolves three. “(Stanley) Humphries was the more organized squad in the first half. They moved the ball well, made smart pass-es, and their three standout players all scored on layups. That’s a recipe for suc-cess for any team.”
The Junior Wolves were down 25-16 at halftime, but after a focused talk with the team, the wolves came out with a re-newed effort in the second half.
“ I told them it was all about being mentally strong,” said O’Brien. “We can’t expect to win every game by 40. We didn’t do that last year. Take the ad-versity, roll with it, and see if it can in-spire a better performance.”
O’Brien said the players played a re-juvenated second half, scoring 16 points in both the 3rd and 4th quarters, includ-ing a stretch where they hit back to back three-pointers to take a one point lead, winning the emotional game 48-43.
The following Monday, GFSS was back on the road and back to winning by large margins, travelling to L.V Rogers (Nelson) for an away game in a tough gym.
Team captain Tieren Dolan led the charge starting on the defensive end, finishing with 17 points 10 rebounds, 5 assists and 8 steals, leading his team to a 65-33 victory. Coach O’Brien was happy with the early success, but is keeping his team looking ahead. “These were two good wins going into this weekend. We play L.V Rogers in the opening game of our tournament in Trail, and there is a good opportunity we could play Humphries again in the final. If we keep improving we should be 9-0 at this time next week.”

Roy BertonRonaghanRetired teacher and
long-time Kootenay Boundary resident
Roy Berton Ronaghan passed away suddenly
on January 2, 2016 at Peace Arch Hospital in White Rock,
BC. He was 84 years old.Roy was born in Islay, Alberta in 1931. His
family moved to Creston after his Grade 8 year, thus beginning his long and well-trav-eled relationship with British Columbia. His teaching career took him to many communi-ties across the province, including Kimberley, Prince Rupert, Quesnel, Dawson Creek and Kamloops. He also lived for a time in Rich-mond, Langley, and on Gambier Island.
Roy’s remaining years were spent in Grand Forks and Christina Lake, the latter being the site of his beloved meadow and acreage on West Lake Drive. Always active in his commu-nity, he was a regular attendee at meetings of Grand Forks City Council, served as a bwoard member with the Grand Forks and District Public Library, was a member of the Commu-nity Advisory Committee for the Christina Lake Management Plan, and wrote many opinion columns for the Grand Forks Gazette.
Roy did his very best to walk softly upon the earth and protect it for future generations. He was also an active, thoughtful and well-in-formed citizen, contributing much of his time and energy to issues and causes that were important to him. He will be greatly missed by his family, friends and colleagues.
Plans for a celebration of Roy’s life will be announced at a later date.
Condolences may be sent to the family by e-mail to [email protected]. For those who wish to personally commemorate Roy’s passing, please consider offering your time or making a donation to a community or environmental organization that is close to your heart.

Over the years, Marilyn involved herself in everything her family was interested in: Trail Minor Hockey, Order of the Eastern Star, Job’s Daughters, Boy Scouts, and Highland Dancing.Our mother and grandmother, not only made our house a home, but she made it a special haven for us all giving sel� essly and generously. Marilyn was a friend and “Mom” to the many that walked through her door. She will be remembered fondly as a con� dant who was never too busy to help you out of a jam or to talk; she would sympathize but advise you with clear directions for your next step. She was the strongest person any of us has ever met. Marilyn’s smile, kindness, and words of wisdom live on forever in our hearts. Our lives and family gatherings will never be the same. We were blessed to have shared many years and joyous occasions with her. Always in our hearts, we love you Mom! Marilyn’s family would like to extend a thank you to all family, and friends for the help, love and support they have received during this di� cult time. � e family wishes to thank Drs.

The number of Ca-nadians living with diabetes has doubled since 2000, and will grow by another 40 per cent by 2025. In British Columbia, the number of people living with diabetes is expected to grow to approximately 463,000 in 2016.
This means 28.2 per cent of the population will be living with dia-betes or prediabetes, including many living with the disease but
undiagnosed. The Public Health
Agency of Canada estimates that 30 per cent of all people liv-ing with diabetes are undiagnosed.
“There is no mis-taking the seriousness of diabetes,” says Ju-lie Knisley, Regional Director for the Cana-dian Diabetes Associa-tion (CDA) for British Columbia and Yukon.
“Diabetes is not only a personal crisis for individuals living with the disease and for their families, but for the province as well.”
The CDA’s recent report on diabetes, Driving Change, highlighted the ac-tion needed to address gaps in the care avail-able to Canadians liv-ing with diabetes in the face of rapidly growing numbers.
“The Canadian Diabetes Association is working hard to support the health of Canadians through education, research, advocacy, improved treatments, and prevention by col-laborating with all stakeholders in the diabetes community,” adds Knisley.
Diabetes is a chronic disease in which the body either cannot produce insu-lin or cannot properly use the insulin it pro-duces.
This leads to high levels of blood glucose (sugar), which over time can result in seri-ous complications.
In prediabetes, a
person’s blood sugar levels are higher than normal, but not yet high enough to be di-agnosed as type 2 dia-betes.
Nearly half of those with prediabetes will develop type 2 diabe-tes.
For people with diabetes, keeping healthy requires a bal-ance of nutrition and physical activity along with medication if pre-scribed and monitor-ing of blood sugar lev-els. Lifestyle is a risk factor for type 2 diabe-tes but family history, ethnic background, socioeconomic status, and environment also play a significant part.
About the CDA
The CDA is the registered national charity that helps the more than 10 million Canadians with dia-betes or prediabetes live healthy lives, and educates those at risk. In communities across Canada, the CDA:
• offers a wide ar-ray of support services to members of the public;· offers re-sources to health-care professionals on best practices to care for people with diabetes;
• advocates to governments, schools, workplaces and others on behalf of people with diabetes; and,
• funds research on better treatments and to find a cure.

Health
� e Biography of
Alex VeriginAlex Verigin was 73 years of age when he passed away on December 17, 2015 at 3:30
p.m. in Kelowna, B.C. He was born on June 19, 1942 in West Grand Forks, B.C. into the Doukhobor family of Alex and Polly Verigin (nee Dubosoff). He was the second of three
children: Paul, himself, and Irene; all of whom predeceased Alex.Context
Alex was born in a time of great change. The Doukhobor community was in fl ux. The USCC had just been created. In 1938 the CCUB had been bankrupted and Doukhobor life was changing dramatically.
In the bigger world, WWII was well underway and Japanese families were being interned nearby in Greenwood. The whole world was in chaos and it was out of this turmoil that “Al” Verigin emerged.
Who in the Doukhobor community would have guessed that Alex would go to school beyond grade 8 and go to University. He would play competitive sports well into his 50’s. He would have three marriages, three sons. He would own land and businesses. These were all “new things” to Doukhobours.
Al’s story is similar to many of his generation who were the fi rst Doukhobors to fully integrate into mainstream Canada. There was tremendous opportunity for them and large growing pains.Introduction
Alex tried to be the best family man he could be. Given his nature, he had many successes; but equally, he had some failures.
He was an avid businessman who strived to fi nd the perfect business – that being one where he could work enough to live well, and more importantly, allow him the time to enjoy life itself. Al knew how to enjoy life.
Sadly, he would spend the last years of his life with dementia and suffer severely at its hands. Al’s life refl ected the turmoil of the world into which he was born. He had challenges, victories, sadness and love. I hope my words that follow will do justice to the man that I loved, my father Alex Verigin.Generosity
Alex was a generous man who loved to explore the wider world. He was a free spirit and a bit of a loner. His nickname was “Casper” after the cartoon character “Casper The Friendly Ghost”. This describes many aspects of him well.
He did a lot of good things. For example, Al supported Eva’s sister’s family in their to move to Canada as refu-gees from Poland. Eva’s sister and two children would live with them for over two years before her husband was allowed to emigrate to Canada.
He was very generous with my friends. He is remembered for taking us on many ski vacations to Sun Valley and Whistler. One Christmas at Whistler we had Dave Traynor, Dave Smith, Mike Ryan, and my brother Jeff for a week. It was so much fun. Our Sun Valley ski trips were fi lled with extreme skiing, great dinners, and lots of laughter. So many people shared in those trips. I love hearing Dave Traynor and my cousin Larry reminisce about them.
Al was also very generous with Brian Simms and I when we were at McGill. His visits were well timed, wel-comed and needed. We needed help. Often in the height of winter he would arrive and immediately try to fatten us up with huge dinners. This turned out be a great trade for Al as Brian eventually moved to the Bahamas and Al visited often.Early Years
Alex’s childhood years revolved around the USCC. He learned “poselmi”, sang, cut JJ’s lawn, and the lawn at the USCC like the others. I remember him talking about the Hoodikoff’s a lot. He loved those guys.Education and Work
Alex completed high school in Grand Forks and went to UBC where he studied Forestry. His Forestry education led to long career in lumbers sales. He worked as a lumber trader for over forty years. He started in the 1960s with Cooper-Widman in Vancouver. He became a part owner of his fi rst business in the early 1970s. He then owned, partnered, and operated many forest products fi rms into the 2000s. He was a successful businessman, but this was not where his heart was.Sports
Al loved sports. He took them seriously and competed in baseball, basketball, hockey, ski racing, tennis, and golf. He was most skilled in fast-pitch, where he was a pitcher, and skiing, especially slalom.
Al loved sports. One of his favourite stories was that his mom gave him money to buy a new suit for a special function (his brother Paul’s wedding). He borrowed a suit and used the money to buy new skis. He thought that was “a stroke of genius”.
In high school he played many sports including baseball, basketball, and hockey. In University he took up skiing, joined the UBC Ski Team and became a nationally ranked ski racer. He was an amazing skier right into his 60’s. He trained hard in his 50’s and a top Masters ski racer in Canada. There was just one guy he couldn’t beat. We thought that was funny and he was serious. I remember him explaining to me the new techniques required to win with the “new breakaway slalom” poles – the shin and arm pads. He talked forever about a session at Whistler with Swedish skiing legend Ingemar Stenmark – total “ski nerd” talk. Alex trained hard and was so good at slalom that he often came in the top 5 overall in races at Whistler. At 50 he was beating 20 year olds.
In his twenties and thirties Al was a fast-pitch pitcher. When he stopped playing fast-pitch, he took up tennis. Al’s tennis skills never matched his skiing or fast-pitch levels, but his athleticism was shown most in tennis. He in-jured his right arm so badly that he couldn’t play. That didn’t stop him, he simply switched to playing left-handed. It was crazy. His physical gifts were remarkable.Family
Alex’s family story is that he was a good man who lost his focus and got distracted a few times. I can’t say that his parents were very happy with this aspect of his life. The memories trigger a smile. It was a grand game. But they were devoted to him and helped us out a lot with our houses on 16th, then 14th, and fi nally on Cypress St.
Al was with his fi rst wife Anne Verigin (nee Polonicoff) early on. They had two sons, Iain and Jeffrey. Al was with Jan Broughton, his second wife, for almost a decade and for a few years Iain and Jeffrey lived with them. Then Eva and Al were together for over fi fteen years. Eva’s son Martin quickly learned to love skiing and photog-raphy. Martin’s cousins Anja and Andrew were more fond of lunch. They skied a lot in their preschool years and Andrew’s story of skiing is well remembered “When you go skiing, you put your skis together and go for lunch”.Remaining Family
Alex was predeceased by his immediate family, Polly, Alex, Paul, and Irene Verigin, and his son Jeffrey Verigin.Alex is survived by his son Iain with his wife Sue and their children Mikaela, Katie, and Thomas. His fi rst wife
Anne Verigin (nee Polonicoff), his second wife Janet Broughton, and his third wife Eva Mahoney (nee Kaczynska) and her son Martin Verigin.
Blessing You
Valentine Par� niukWe are blessing Valentine Parfi niuk, of Grand Forks,
B.C., who passed away peacefully on December 31, 2015, with his family beside him, deep in prayer and singing
Doukhobor soul hymns continuously during his last week on this earth. He was a man of two worlds, being born in Tomahawk,
Alberta, on August 25, 1930, in the Ukrainian settlement. He was born to a family of eight children, two brothers and six sisters, sharing
the hard times of the 1930s with his mom and dad, who worked with much love to raise their beautiful family, working on the farm together.
In his early twenties, he came to British Columbia – the Okanagan and Kamloops area – to fi nd jobs that were scarce at that time.
In 1957, he met and married Nellie Bawoolin, who at that time worked in Kam-loops doing domestic jobs and bakery, because there were no jobs at home near the Perry Siding Doukhobor Community Village.
Not long after our marriage, Val hurt his back, and we decided to move from Kamloops to Osoyoos where I, his wife, knew the garden and orchard work well, and there was always enough money to get by. Val was hired on at the Monashee Packing Plant, and we lived close enough, within walking distance, that we could both work at the same plant. Val loved going fi shing at a small lake between Os-oyoos and Keremeos, and being in the natural habitat of the hills. We both thought the valley was so beautiful.
A year later, our fi rst child, Marcia, was born to us in 1958, and Val was over-whelmed at being a father to such a miracle baby, walking at eight months, and so beautiful. Soon, another miracle happened; a son, Danny was born. And within a year, Steven arrived. Our family was so complete, and we were so happy with our family. All of our children were born in the Oliver hospital.
But life is a mover, challenge after challenge. I had a vision about my village in Perry Siding. After that, I was pulled like a magnet to go back home. I asked Val if we could move to the village in Perry Siding.
When we arrived, Val remodeled the cottage bought for a few dollars from the Rebalkin family. It was just the right size for our family, and we settled in. Val loved the village and the people in it, God bless him.
At that time, Sons of Freedom Doukhobor men were fasting unto death for un-fair sentencing; they were on the fast for about 100 days already. In the news media, the press stated that the government was planning asbestos suits for the impris-oned men, and that no one could last longer than six months in them. All of Sons of Freedom Doukhobor communities were alarmed and in confl ict with authorities.
We lived in the Village for only three months when a trek to our fasting brothers in Agassiz was announced. We, our family just babies, were going on the trek of a lifetime, and Val, from another walk of life, without question chose to help our Doukhobor brothers, and we trekked with others on this soul journey. I, his wife, will always honour him for that movement of the heart. When my mom, Mable Bawoolin, had a heart attack, I came back from the Agassiz trek before others in order to care for her, while Val followed shortly after.
And this is when we settled in Grand Forks. As time went by, Val did carpentry odd jobs here and there and later he worked on most of the dam sites as a foreman, and was well liked by people who worked along with him. Later in his life, when he broke his hip and health went downhill and dementia set in. He worked on canes to gift to family and other people, and often he told me and others of the vision he had of seeing Peter “Lordly” Verigin appear before him, patting Val on the head. He said he looked like the picture of Peter “Lordly” that we have hanging on the wall.
Valentine is predeceased by his mother, Anastasia, who passed on January 20, 1986; his father Fred, who passed on May 3, 1992; his sister, Olga, who passed on August 6, 1989; his sister, Jean, who passed on July 28, 2000; his nephew, Gary, who passed in 1990; his nephew, Dean, who passed on July 2, 2015, and his niece, Joyce.
He is survived by his wife, Anastasia Parfi niuk; brother Walter (Ruth) Parfi niuk; sisters, Annie Faminoff, Joyce (Don) Martin, and Vicky (Gary) Myck; his daughter, Marcia Shelestynski; sons Dan (Michelle) Parfi niuk and Steve (Hilary) Parfi niuk; grandchildren, Sonya (Yehudi) Schepkowski, Allie (Brad) Dixon, Lisa (Jason) Chias-son, Tanya (Danny) Shelestynski, Kayla (Jason) Lewis, Daniel Shelestynski, Nicolas Shelestynski, James Parfi niuk, Carbon Parfi niuk; great grandsons, Gage Dixon and Boden Lewis; sister-in-law, Maryann Holtz; son-in-law Darrin Shelestynski; daugh-ter-in-law, Nina Parfi niuk, and many nieces and nephews.
May God bless you, Val, on your journey to God’s eternity. No one could fi ll your sacred place in my heart. My thoughts are, let God’s angels carry you on wings of God’s love.
The province is working in partnership with the BC Nurses’ Union (BCNU) to cre-ate over 1,600 additional regular nursing positions to the B.C. health system, to im-prove care for patients and better support nurses on the frontlines of health care.
“Nurses are important, highly-skilled members of health care teams throughout British Columbia, and today’s announce-ment acknowledges their integral role in the health system,” said Health Minister Terry Lake. “Over the past year, we have been working closely with nurses to make health care improvements that benefit
both patients and staff. We are confident this spirit of partnership will continue as we work together on a new collective agreement that meets the goals of nurses, health authorities and the province.”
The Ministry of Health, along with health authorities, the Health Employers Association of BC (HEABC) and BCNU have jointly committed to work to-gether to create 1,643 regular nursing positions by March 31, 2016. “To nurses who are trying to provide safe patient care while working short in ERs and operating rooms and nurses who cope with
overwhelming workloads, this agreement means that relief is on the way,” said Gayle Duteil, president of the BCNU.
Recruitment targets are as follows:• Fraser Health: 400• Interior Health: 300
• Island Health: 290• Northern Health: 100• Providence Health Care: 80• Provincial Health Services Authority: 238
• Vancouver Coastal: 235
