Phil Graham from Excel Scaffolding was disassembling the scaffolding on the banks of the Columbia River on Monday morning. Since the fall, Marwest Contracting from Kamloops has been building a new sewer line for Teck to hook into the city’s sewer line and workers say the job should be done soon.
PULLING UP STAKES
B Y S H E R I R E G N I E RTimes Staff
In about nine months time, there'll be signs of new life along Riverside Avenue when construction for the Columbia River crossing is expected to break ground.
Barring any unforeseen circum-stances, the city plans to put the $10 million pedestrian/pipe bridge proj-ect to tender this spring, and award the contract by the middle of May.
“The delayed construction start will allow the contractor the nec-essary lead time to order material and get it on site,” explained David Perehudoff, Trail's chief adminis-trative officer (CAO), to council Wednesday night. “Particularly the massive cables that will carry a lot of the load.”
The city has been advised that suspension cables will take at least four months to be fabricated, he said, noting the timing works well with regard to the river's levels.
“With high water, construction will not start until September, when the water comes down,” Perehudoff
added.In the meantime, terms for the
sewer agreement between Trail, Warfield and Rossland are being finalized at the regional level along-side fine details for the maintenance of the pipe bridge utility line.
As far as the process goes, the agreements are between Trail and the regional district, said Perehudoff, adding that the documents will be advanced to Trail council and the regional sewer committee for approval, Warfield and Rossland do not have to sign off.
Coun. Sandy Santori, an appoin-tee to the council's newly formed bridge committee, says the role he and Coun. Kevin Jolly will play in keeping other councillors and the public up-to-date on the project includes reviewing tender docu-ments and ensuring the project is on time and on budget once the construction begins.
“It's not unusual to have a com-mittee on a major project,” said Santori. “We keep everyone apprised and ensure that processes are in place and we bring any issues that may pop up back to council and the public.”

PATRICE GORDON
Rossland nurse back to workB Y L I Z B E V A N
Times StaffAfter one week in training, four
weeks in a treatment centre and three weeks under medical observa-tion, Patrice Gordon is back in the comfort of her Chilcotin home.
Last Wednesday, the Rossland native was cleared to return home after developing flu-like symptoms following two months of fighting the Ebola virus in West Africa.
And even though she is a long way from Sierra Leone, her mind is with those at the treatment centre.
“I am all the way over here in Canada, but I feel so close to those people and feel their pain,” she told the Trail Times on Friday morning.
When she first arrived back in Canada in December, Gordon was required to stay close to the hospital in Kelowna and avoid large groups of people, missing the holidays with her family.
“When you consider that Ebola is transmitted by exchange of bod-ily fluids, it was about not sharing cups, or eating utensils, that kind of thing,” she said.
“I could go grocery shopping to get food and I spent lots of time going for walks on the beach, but it was way too much time in a town that is not my home. It was over Christmas and New Year's, so it was tough.”

FROM PAGE 1During her stay in
Kelowna, Gordon started feeling ill, with a fever and achy muscles, she didn’t worry that she had caught the disease; her concern was what others would be think-ing.
“It was more about the anxiety over what kind of hullabaloo it would cause,” she said. “I had a few intel-lectual thoughts about if I had Ebola, but I never had any moments of panic or fear. I had so much confidence in how careful I had been in Sierra Leone.”
Gordon was tested for Ebola three times over 21 days, and all tests came back negative.
Once the B.C. Ministry of Health issued a press release about her symptoms and test-ing, the media frenzy began.
“I couldn’t believe it,” she said. “I was shielded by a lot of it by a media person for Red Cross. She was fabulous. She told me I didn’t have to talk to anyone, but I wanted to talk to people.”
The message she wanted to get to the media was how relatable the victims of Ebola are to Canadians at home.
“I wanted to be able to put some faces on the story instead of talking about a virus on the other side of the planet, she said. “I want people to understand that these are happy little chil-dren being stricken. There is the 22-year-old university student or the 18-year-old who is working with his fath-er fixing shoes and they are dying.”
Just before speaking with the Trail Times, Gordon had
received news that the dis-ease had also killed one of the health care providers she had worked with in Kenema.
“He was the first Red Cross person that has been affected since the mission started in April 2014,” she said. “I am just stunned. It is like one big family there. I am just wait-ing to hear more and sending my deep sadness and love over to them. He commit-ted the last four months of his life to working six days a week looking after his fellow countrymen and now he has died.”
There is still suffering going on in Sierra Leone, but
for Gordon, it is time to heal herself after the emotional roller coaster of the last two months.
“I know that I haven’t pro-cessed it yet,” she said. “But, I came home to my partner and two furry, warm pup-pies that are so happy to see me and that has been the greatest therapy a person can have.”
She doesn’t have much time for that therapy, though. Gordon is heading right back to work, taking care of her patients in the Chilcotin.
“I have been away from my patients for two months and I miss everyone,” she
said. “Being back and work-ing with patients in the com-munity that is familiar to me, those things are also heal-ing.”
Despite the hard work, the loss, being away from family and a media frenzy, she says that she is already planning a trip to go back.
“I am looking at April or May to head back over there,” she said. “I have been think-ing about it every day since I got back, but I am really starting to think about the impact on my family, friends, patients and everyone else. It is a lot to balance, but I can’t imagine not going back.”
Ebola testing ignites media frenzy

Rossland’s Patrice Gordon is finally home from over two months of training, providing care and staying isolation after fighting the Ebola virus in West Africa. She was excited to get home and spend time with her dogs in the snow.
FROM PAGE 1He supports assigning a few mem-
bers of council on a small committee for the city’s large and costly proj-ects.
“What you don’t need to have at all times is every council member being involved in that particular commit-tee,” Santori noted. “Because they all have an opportunity for comment and for input when we report back with certain issues and updates.”
Based on the multimillion-dol-lar cost of bridge construction that includes a walking deck, a new East
Trail water line, as well as the sewer interceptor pipe, Rossland will con-tribute $1 million toward the service; Warfield $527,000; and Trail, $2.6 million as a regional entity entity plus $6.2 million directly.
While those costs were agreed upon last October, the operation and maintenance agreement continues to be a work in progress.
“In investigating the way forward we determined that we would have to take an ownership position in the project and allow us to bor-row the required funds,” wrote John
MacLean, CAO for the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary in a report to staff.
“And to formalize that we have been working on a formal funding contribution agreement.”
While both agreements were under review by the city, there was little concern with the maintenance agreement, other than insurance cost apportionment.
However, MacLean, confirmed on Monday, he is hoping to have both agreements on the board’s agenda by month end.
Maintenance agreement still to be resolved

The fire-damaged school buses that were found ablaze at Brent Kennedy Elementary early Friday morning did not have comprehensive insurance, according to Kootenay Lake School District operations manager Larry Brown.
“This year we paid $42,488 in insurance for our buses,” he said. “If we had wanted com-prehensive insurance we would’ve had to pay another $15,000 on top of that.”
Brown said the choice to leave the buses with-out comprehensive insurance was a “conscious” cost-saving measure. Superintendent Jeff Jones said the arrangement is “fairly typical”.
“One would question the amount we’d need to have to protect against these instances. It was decided that with all these past years with no instances like this, even if we have to pay we’d still come out ahead,” said Jones.
Brown said buses will continue to run uninterrupted.
“We don’t know what the exact cost is going to be at this time, but we’ve shuffled our buses to compensate and we have enough spares. Five buses that we ordered are now being expedited,
so we’re okay for now.”Brown said the expense from the fire will
come out of the repair budget, but they may potentially overspend.
“It’s tough to tell. If we overspend, that’s a conversation I’ll have to have with the secretary-treasurer,” he said.
Brown said they’ll either re-allocate funds from other budgets or under-spend to make sure the department doesn’t go over budget. There are also a number of contingency funds that could potentially be used to help.
“We should have an estimate before the end of the week, which will be followed by a discussion with the superintendent, probably on Monday,” he said.
The decision on how to pay for the fire will be made at the senior leadership level, he said.
The initial blaze was approximately 200 metres from the school. The fire resulted in sig-nificant damage to one 2008 model school bus and lesser damage to the other two, which are 2010 and 2013 models.
The RCMP does not suspect arson or foul play. They have speculated the fire may have been caused by a mechanical problem.
Christmas Clean-up

J.L. Crowe grad students Ben Kanda and Madeline Tuai load up a Christmas tree into Steven Tuai's truck in Glenmerry during the tree clean-up on Saturday morning. The 2015 graduating class spent the weekend driving around Trail collecting the trees and delivering them to the McKelvey Creek Regional Landfill where they will be fed through a wood chipper and turned to mulch. The time spent on the project goes towards Community Connections hours required for the students to graduate in June.

The City of Trail doesn't take lightly to interference with free enterprise – especially by a group of independents supported by dollars from Columbia Basin Trust (CBT).
After Trail turned down a “regional airport study” proposal by the West Kootenay Economic Development Dialogues (WKEDD) last month, the city is going one step further and asking for CBT to support a review of the group's intent and purpose.
There are two regional airports and each is a business entity doing their best to grow and succeed, explained Trail Mayor Mike Martin.
“We don't believe there can be any value in an independent group coming in to dictate what they need to do. It goes against the principles of free enterprise.”
WKEDD defines itself as repre-sentatives from Castlegar, Nelson, Rossland and Trail, Community Futures, chambers of commerce and other regional organizations to provide collaborative leadership in areas such as regional economic development, joint opportunities and solutions to common issues.
The airport study was dropped after Trail publicly stated that the city would not support the project, and since that time, Martin has met with Lawrence Chernoff, Castlegar's mayor.
The meeting was facilitated by the trust's Chief Executive Neil Muth, who, at Martin's request, will organize a meeting of the four may-ors to determine the intent behind the airport access study and the purpose of the group.
“This is a work in progress,” added Martin. “We are re-setting the clock on this group in a way.”
Expanding opportunities to the Trail airport, which the city pur-
chased from the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary one year ago, plays into past and current council's long term vision for the area.
“The Trail airport is a vital estab-lishment for medical and Medevac Air Ambulance travel as well as business and personal travel,” said Martin. “If we want Trail to continue to thrive, then the Trail Regional Airport needs to be viewed as a criti-cal economic building block that will help maintain and improve the regional's long-term sustainability.”
Martin's comments were made following the proposal by the West Kootenay Economic Development group to develop a regional airport study that would include the Trail service.
The City of Trail does not sup-port that study, confirmed David Perehudoff, Trail's chief adminis-trative officer, adding that the city will be moving forward with the Trail Regional Airport Plan that will advance options to improve and enhance current operations, infra-structure and economic develop-ment.
“The city believes that as a com-munity, we need to consider what level of service council wants to provide independent of the airport in Castlegar,” Martin explained.
He said the city remains com-mitted to elevate the $1.6 million investment to take airport owner-ship.
“In order to ensure our regional customers get reliable air access at competitive rates, it is impera-tive the city continues with the necessary facility and operational improvements to run the Trail Regional Airport.”
The city's planning study includes the construction of a new terminal building as well as identifying other opportunities for the land holdings at the airport.
City seeks answers regarding WKEDD
Volunteers needed for festivalB y s h e r i r e g n i e r
Times StaffThe Kootenay Festival of the
Arts is returning to centre stage in Trail for 10 days this spring.
From April 6-18, the festival offers students of artistic disci-plines the opportunity to perform in a theatrical environment and receive constructive critique from established professionals.
The 81-year tradition that showcases local talent in the per-
forming arts was shelved two years ago due to lack of volunteers.
While there are nine people on board to help first time co-chairs Nicole Zimmer and Audrey Gerein revive the event, more hands are need to help run the day-to-day duties that are mostly sched-uled in downtown Trail's Charles Bailey Theatre.
No experience is necessary to volunteer. For information and to sign up, call Zimmer at 362.9635.

ACUPUNCTURE
T H E C A N A D I A N P R E S SSURREY, B.C. -
Surrey Memorial Hospital is grappling with its highest-ever volumes of emergency patients and an out-break of the potential-ly deadly C.difficile, according to an inter-nal bulletin.
The bulletin obtained by The Canadian Press informed staff on Friday that the hos-pital is experiencing
“unprecedented” con-gestion.
A Fraser Health Authority spokesman said the emergency room is seeing up to 500 people per day - a significant spike that he attributed to a high number of flu cases in the community.
“It’s an extremely busy time,” said Ken Donohue.
He said the hospi-tal has also declared a C. difficile outbreak, meaning there are three or more cases and staff are taking extra steps to stop the infection from spread-ing.
C. difficile is a bacterium that often spreads through poor hand-washing and occurs after antibiotic treatment. The infec-tion and ensuing diar-rhea can cause death in the very ill and elderly.
There are also infections of influ-
enza, CPE bacteria and respiratory condi-tions throughout the facility, but Donohue said they are not being declared outbreaks.
Gayle Duteil, president of the B.C. Nurses’ Union, said her members are call-ing the “chaotic” con-ditions inside the hos-pital the worst they’ve ever seen.
“While Fraser Health is describing it as unprecedented, it’s certainly not unantici-pated,” she said.
She said patients are waiting up to 45 minutes to be looked at.
The hospital has re-opened its old emer-gency department and that emergency room patients are lining the halls, she said.
There are multiple admitted patients who require hospital care who are sitting in chairs waiting for beds, she added.
B y T R E v o R C R A w l E yCranbrook TownsmanB.C. is open for
business.That’s the mes-
sage that Energy and Mines Minister Bill Bennett brought to Ontario as he opened up the Toronto Stock Exchange and deliv-ered a keynote speech to the Toronto Board of Trade.
Bennett acknow-ledged that commod-ity prices are low right now, but added that if you want to get investment, you have to go out and make your case for it.
“Today’s world is so bloody competi-tive, they [investors] can take their money and go anywhere they want — they can go to Chile, Peru or
Mongolia or Africa or Quebec or Manitoba or Ontario,” Bennett told the Townsman.
“We want them to choose B.C. and you have to go out and work to get that investment and those jobs that will come if we can convince these people to come to B.C.”
With industry rep-resentatives in tow from the Association of Mining in British Columbia (AMBC) and Mining Association of British Columbia (MABC), Bennett opened the Toronto Stock Exchange before delivering his speech to investors, explorers, develop-ers, lawyers and large banking firms.
“We’ve got low
taxes, we’ve got good permitting process-es, we’ve got great infrastructure, we’ve got good highways, we’ve got good ports to get their products overseas to Asia, an educated workforce, an under-explored province in terms of our geology — there are lots and lots of discoveries yet to be made out there,” said Bennett.
Much has been made of falling oil prices, which is cur-rently at $46/barrel but the mining indus-try is largely unaffect-ed by the price plunge. Alberta Premier Jim Prentice is warning that the low price of oil will have an adverse impact on the province’s finances.
“We’re not nearly as hard-hit by low oil prices as, for example, Alberta and Saskatchewan are. Alberta will not bal-ance their budget this year,” said Bennett. “They didn’t last year, they won’t this year, and it’s going to be very difficult for them. There’s even some talk about them going into recession.
“For us, the min-ing industry obvious-ly likes it when gas prices are lower, so lower oil prices — to the mining industry — is not in itself a bad thing. We’re also helped right now by the dollar, the dif-ference between the Canadian and U.S. dollar. Our dollar is down in value and that makes it easier for foreign companies to buy Canadian prod-ucts.”
While Alberta is facing challenges from the turmoil in the oil industry, B.C.’s min-ing sector is relatively stable in the face of low commodity prices, said Bennett.
“It’s probably doub-ly difficult for juris-dictions to attract investment, so what I heard today was, ‘It’s a good thing you’re here because we’re going to go to a jurisdiction where we think we’re appreciated’,” said Bennett.

Oil prices impacting workforceB y R I C H A R D R o l k EVernon Morning Star
Plummeting oil prices are making waves in the North Okanagan.
Countless local residents have developed careers in northern Alberta as oil prices skyrocketed, but now that the market con-tinues to fall, there are concerns some will be coming home with-out paycheques.
“There’s an immediate job loss that’s rippling through,” said Kevin Poole, Vernon’s economic development manager.
Recently, Suncor Energy announced it was laying off 1,000 workers, while Shell Canada is reducing 300 jobs at its Athabasca oil sands operation.
Many oil sector workers have opted to have their primary home in the Okanagan and while here, they have pumped their salaries into home purchases, vehicles, restaurants and other services.
To keep up with the demand from workers to head north,
WestJet initiated flights between Kelowna International Airport and Fort McMurray, Alta. in May 2014.
Poole isn’t sure how many local residents could be nega-tively impacted by the current downturn in the oil patch.
“It can definitely impact the local economy.”
Beyond that, there could be other influences.
“There are second home owners and semi-retirees from Alberta who have done well in the oil industry and we’re looking to move to the Okanagan and this could impact their plans,” said Poole.
Some North Okanagan-based contracting companies have also done significant work in north-ern Alberta and the oil slump could impact the revenue stream.
However, Poole is convinced the North Okanagan could bene-fit from other economic trends, including the low Canadian dollar and decreasing gasoline prices.

T H E C A N A D I A N P R E S SEDMONTON - Documents show the man who shot two Alberta
Mounties was a violent criminal, in and out of jail, with a long history of assaults, break-ins and drug use that stretched back to his teenage years.
“You are a dangerous person who has demonstrated blatant disregard toward the criminal justice system as well as lack of respect to the pub-lic in general,” the Parole Board of Canada said when it denied Shawn Rehn day parole in 2006.
Rehn, 34, was found dead in a rural home north of Edmonton Saturday morning, just hours after two Mounties were shot at the nearby Apex Casino in the city of St. Albert.
One of the officers, Const. David Wynn, was shot in the head. He has not regained consciousness and is not expected to survive, said police.
Wynn, 42, is a married father of three who joined the Mounties in 2009 after working as a paramedic in Bridgewater, N.S.
The other officer, auxiliary Const. Derek Bond, 49, was shot in the arm and torso and faces a long recovery.
Shooter had history of violence
T H E C A N A D I A N P R E S SST. JOHN’S, N.L. -
Newfoundland and Labrador says it is suspending its participation in all new trade talks because of its dispute with Ottawa over a promised federal-provincial fish-eries fund.
The provincial government says the federal government has failed to honour its commitment to pro-vide $280 million in exchange for the province relinquishing min-imum processing requirements for fish plants as part of a free trade deal with Europe.
Provincial Business Minister Darin King says as a result, he has told federal International Trade Minister Ed Fast that Newfoundland and Labrador won’t participate in new trade talks cur-rently under negotiation.
The federal government has said that an unspecified amount of money would be available for
direct losses to the fisheries sector as a result of the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement with the EU.
But it said that those losses would have to be proven and no “blank cheque” was ever offered to the province.
A spokesman for Fast says the provincial government’s response will definitely have a negative impact on Newfoundland and Labrador’s economy.
“With almost 78 per cent Newfoundland and Labrador’s economy dependent on inter-national trade, anything that would delay or exclude Newfoundland and Labrador from taking advan-tage of any of Canada’s trade agree-ments would have a detrimental economic impact on the province and would create severe competi-tive disadvantage for ... exports in global markets,” Max Moncaster said in an email response.
T H E C A N A D I A N P R E S SWARMAN, Sask.
- A Saskatchewan woman’s shortcut across a frozen river turned into a scary wait for rescue when her car plunged through the ice.
Warman Fire-Rescue Chief Gord Thompson says the woman was driving across the ice road from Warman to Aberdeen on Friday night when her car fell through the ice and ended up in the South Saskatchewan River.
Thompson says the car remained afloat for some time, allowing the woman to climb on top of the vehicle and call 9-1-1 on her cellphone.
He says she was still waiting on the roof of
the sinking car when rescuers arrived, and they were able to reach her and pull her off.
Thompson says even though his crews got to the scene quickly, it was still sev-eral kilometres from Warman, and the vol-unteer firefighters had to make their way to the fire hall first.
He says the car sunk after she was res-
cued.“As the car was
going down, they got her to jump. She jumped to the ice and they got her, and they were able to bring her back to shore,” Thompson said.
“When the car went down, it was com-pletely submerged, so we aren’t certain how deep the water was there.”
Thompson said she would likely have wait-ed at least 10 minutes for help.
Thompson said at other times of the year, a ferry crosses the route, but people cross the ice to save time when it becomes solid enough to sup-port vehicles.
He said it saves about a half-an-hour if you’re driving from Warman to Aberdeen, but noted it isn’t maintained and people do it at their own risk.
“I have done it, but when it’s been a heavy ice road. I haven’t gone down there when the ice is thin,” he said.

T H E C A N A D I A N P R E S SOTTAWA - As part
of its budgetary wish list, the NDP wants the Conservative gov-ernment to ditch its income-splitting plan for families with chil-dren, lower the age of eligibility for Old Age Security back to 65 and bring in universal child care that would cost parents no more than $15 a day.
NDP finance critic Nathan Cullen wrote Sunday to Finance Minister Joe Oliver, outlining what his party would like to see in the next federal budget.
The budget, which has traditionally been released in February or March, has been delayed until at least April as the Conservatives evalu-ate the effect of fall-ing oil prices.
In his letter, Cullen urged Oliver not to delay the budget “in the hopes oil prices might recover.”
In a telephone interview Sunday, Cullen said he was worried that Oliver may change his department’s approach to calculat-ing future oil prices. The calculations in the government’s fall economic update were based on a price
of US$81 per barrel.But now that
prices have plunged to near six-year lows, the finance minis-ter has said he will rely on private-sec-tor forecasts - some of which expect oil prices to rebound later this year - when he prepares his next budget.
A budget based on higher oil prices would give the gov-ernment considerably more latitude than one that bases its pro-jections on current levels.
“I’m a bit worried they’re going to cook the books,” Cullen said.
“Oliver this week in Vancouver was sug-gesting that the way that they estimate oil prices, they’re now going to change and put on some rose-col-oured glasses and get better numbers and justify their program spending.
“That’s a worri-some thing. If they produce what we in B.C. call a ‘fudge-it’ budget, then we’re in some very treacher-ous waters.”
A statement from Oliver’s office repeated previous Conservative criti-cisms of the New Democrats’ fiscal
proposals, dismiss-ing them as “reckless spending” that would raise taxes for middle class families.
Economists say the current climate gives the government very little wiggle room.
Balancing the budget would require the government to spend its entire $3-billion contin-gency reserve, leav-ing nothing for new measures, BMO Financial Group chief economist Douglas Porter wrote in a note to clients Friday.
The Conservatives had already left them-selves a razor-thin margin due to the decision to unveil a multibi l l ion-dollar suite of family tax-and-benefit measures in late October, after world oil prices had started to tumble.
The measures included income split-ting, which allows someone in a higher tax bracket than their spouse to share some of their income with the lower earner, so the family pays less taxes overall.
The measures were promised during the 2011 election cam-paign, contingent on a balanced budget in 2015.
“They’ve painted themselves into a real corner,” Cullen said. “They spent the sur-plus before they had it. Now they’ve got a problem, because they’ve sliced every-thing so thin.”
As for what else the NDP would like to see in the budget, Cullen asked Oliver to spend less on gov-ernment advertis-ing and subsidies to oil companies; adopt the NDP’s universal child-care plan; and to bring back a fed-eral minimum wage, which would be grad-ually raised to $15 an hour.
Cullen also says the government should reverse its plan to alter how it calculates payments to the prov-inces and territories, which Canada’s pre-miers and territorial leaders have said will cost them $36 billion in health transfers over a 10-year period.

OPINION
Hippy science is easy, and wrongDid you do a
“cleanse” to start the year? A diet or supplements
to, you know, “detox” your body?
Please, if you did, I don’t want the details. I’m here to discuss the underlying assumptions of this fad. TV presenter Dr. Oz is a pro-moter of various schemes, soup diets and the like, but there are many books and consumer products being flogged.
“Supplements, tea, hom-eopathy, coffee enemas, ear candles and foot baths promise you a detoxified body,” writes Ontario phar-macist Scott Gavura, who treats cancer patients with medicine’s most potent drugs.
Frustrated by the phar-macy industry’s willingness to cash in on fake cures for nonexistent conditions, Gavura began contributing to ScienceBasedMedicine.org, where you can search “detox” find his takedown
of this notion.He traces the roots of
purification rituals in reli-gious and medical history, such as when patients were bled with leeches.
Actual “detox” is admin-istered in hospital for those with dangerous levels of drugs, alcohol or other poisons. Credible phys-icians abandoned theories of “autointoxication” in the 19th century.
“Today’s version of auto-intoxication argues that some combination of food additives, salt, meat, fluor-ide, prescription drugs, smog, vaccine ingredients, GMOs and perhaps last night’s bottle of wine are causing a buildup of ‘tox-ins’ in the body,” Gavura writes. “And don’t forget gluten. Gluten is the new evil and therefore, is now a toxin.”
Gluten-free products now occupy whole sections of grocery stores, not far from the pricey “organic” produce that may or may
not be tested for synthetic pesticides.
Living in the Lower Mainland 20 years ago, I noticed people lugging big plastic jugs to the grocery store to fill with water. Metro Vancouver is a rain-forest, with some of the best tap water in the world, so I wondered what they were trying to avoid.
Discreet inquiries yield-ed similar answers. Aside from the odd superstition about chlorine or fluoride, they had no idea at all. They didn’t know about the Coquitlam reservoir,
or ozonation, or what they were buying, which was essentially municipal water run through a filter. They had been convinced to pay $2 for water in plastic bot-tles, and this somehow led to the conclusion that their tap water is only fit for washing clothes and drive-ways.
Vaccinations? Don’t get me started. In the past year I have had an argument with a registered nurse at a blood donor clinic, annoyed that the health ministry denied her imagined “right” to infect frail patients with influenza, and with a vet-eran politician who only recently overcame a vague taboo against putting vac-cines in her body.
It’s no wonder people constantly fall for enviro-scares like toxins from the Alberta oil sands that are actually concentrated in cities where all that fuel is burned, or the threat of genetically modified canola oil, or smart meters. The
media are frequently part of the problem, lacking sci-entific literacy and prefer-ring conflict over common sense.
Take Vancouver (please). The mayor rose to fame with a company that sold overpriced imported trop-ical fruit juice in single-serving plastic bottles. Calling it “Happy Planet” convinced a new genera-tion of urban rubes that they’re doing something for the environment. Plus, there are “no chemicals” in it, to cite the central myth of hippy science.
At the risk of giving you too much information, I did a cleanse last year. It was for a screening colon-oscopy, one of many that have taxed the B.C. health care system since a new test was added to the stan-dard medical checkup.
Try that one if you’re over 50.

T H E A S S O C I A T E D P R E S SNEW YORK - Thursday night games were
such a success this season for CBS that the net-work extended its deal with the NFL through the 2015 season.
The agreement carries an additional year at the NFL’s option. It was announced Sunday by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell; Leslie Moonves, president and CEO of CBS; and Sean McManus, chairman of CBS Sports.
The packages will include 14 games on Thursday nights and two late-season ones on Saturdays.
All eight Thursday night games on CBS/NFL Network during Weeks 2-8 and Week 16 were the top-rated in prime time for that night across all networks.

I read, with inter-est, the articles in Friday’s (Trail Times, Jan 16) paper about the workings of Trail City Council. I applaud the Mayor for his innovation of hav-ing a designated dep-uty mayor.
Having been in the emergency service for four decades I real-ize how important it is to have someone who is up to speed and familiar with the available options in the position of deci-sion maker.
I have seen the chaos created by poor or late decisions and the lasting ramifica-tions that result.
I don’t spend time
on Facebook or any other social media so I was surprised to learn that some of our elected officials might pass off their own opinion as that of the entire coun-cil. I think the new policy is only reason-able since it forces the author to claim ownership of what they write by stating that it is their opin-ion rather than that of the entire council.
Finally, my wife and I went to the Smoke Eater game on Friday and were very enter-tained. Although the Smoke Eaters and the Clippers are at opposite ends of their respective divisions
there was not much to choose between the two teams.
Nanaimo won by one goal, a power play goal late in the game, but the Smoke Eaters were competi-tive right until the last whistle.
I did see some-thing that disturbed me however. I saw an elderly lady being dropped off in front of the Trail Memorial Centre but not at the door. The closest the driver could get was the end of the decora-tive railing (35 steps from the doors) and on the wrong side of the uncleared pile of snow.
I understand the
theory of spending money to beautify and modernize our city but at some point functionality should also play a part.
In the past a driver could pull right up to the door, out of the traffic, and drop Nona off. No more. We have expanded (beautified ?) the
sidewalk right up to the traffic lanes and put a decorative safety railing in to prevent anyone from falling in front of a bus.
Did we really need to make these chan-ges?
Attendance at Smoke Eater games has been declining in recent years, so why
make it more difficult for long time support-ers to go.
I suspect it is too late to correct this now but maybe, before we go on to the next phase, we should take a look at how the changes really affect people.
Bill MacMillanTrail
I would like to compliment our Mayor as he was out with the plow and sander Friday mor-ning as they were clearing the Green Ave hill and the area of West Trail where I live. Seeing him see first hand what it takes to keep us mobile was to me very commendable.
Now if the city would just come and take some of the snow away like they do on Birch and Nelson I would be very happy.

Deputy mayor call correct, more thought needed on renos
Most of the media reports I have seen on B.C.’s planned wolf cull are giving
the public the wrong impres-sion. What I have been hearing on radio, TV and online news is that the B.C. government has announced it will be shooting 184 wolves from helicopters in the South Peace and Selkirk areas of B.C. before snowmelt this spring because, and I’m paraphrasing:
• BC cari-bou herds are shrinking to dan-gerously low levels
• W o l v e s eat caribou
• Therefore, the B.C. is killing wolves to save the cari-bou herds.
The stories position the nar-rative as a “war on wolves” to save the helpless caribou. It’s a play on old fairy tales like the Three Little Pigs and the Big Bad Wolf. And this gets people all riled up, as well they should be.
But people shouldn’t get upset that biologists believe we have no choice but to kill a relatively small number of localized wolf packs as an emergency measure. Rather, they should be upset because we do not have the will to do what is necessary to main-tain adequate caribou habi-tat and, most importantly, to keep people and apex preda-tors – that is, predators with no natural predators of their own – out of the area. Check the press release background-ers and you will see that this is known and documented.
Instead of playing on fairy-tales, we should be reflecting on stories like Farley Mowat’s Never Cry Wolf, in which he
tells how ,in the late 1940’s, the Dominion Wildlife Service assigned him to investigate the cause of declining cari-bou populations and determine whether wolves are to blame for the shortage.
Mowat discovered that rath-er than being wanton killers of caribou the wolves subsist quite heavily on small mam-mals such as rodents and hares, “even choosing them
over caribou when available.” He con-cludes: “We have doomed the wolf not for what it is but for what we
deliberately and mistakenly perceive it to be: the myth-ologized epitome of a savage, ruthless killer – which is, in reality, not more than the reflected image of ourselves. We have made it the scapewolf for our own sins.”
Habitat degradation and avoidance of what little is left because of human land use and access is the primary cause of the caribou’s predicament – not the presence of wolves. Reporters should be calling a spade a spade – the public deserves to have an informed discussion.
Legislated approval pro-cesses and statutory decision makers have made trade-offs on the public’s behalf – mak-ing resource extraction and unfettered access to recrea-tional opportunities every-where in the province the dominant priority, while risk to natural capital values such as species at risk have been evaluated to be “acceptable” or “within tolerance limits”.
Human footprint develop-ment, particularly linear features and high elevation
developments, are creating transportation highways for wolves to get to caribou where they would have previously not gone because the forest itself would have been a barrier. And mountain caribou don’t like hanging out with us. Human access by snowmobiles, ATV’s, even hikers, snowshoers and backcountry skiers to habitat results in caribou avoiding the little bit they do still have.
Biologists think the cull is the only way to avoid extir-pation in the short term, so maybe this is the best short-term emergency measure. But if the real issues are not addressed, this will accomplish nothing but delay the inevit-able.
Unintended consequences are occurring because com-prehensive holistic cumulative effects analyses are not being employed to measure and evaluate the benefits and costs of simultaneous human land use like oil and gas explora-tion and development, surface mining, forestry, transporta-tion, wind energy, agriculture, forest fire suppression, tour-ism and recreation and human settlement along with climate change and natural disturb-ance.
The tools and processes to analyze these system dynam-ics already exist and are being applied in many jurisdictions in the world.
It is time for B.C. to catch up and for the public to have an opportunity to engage in understanding the trade-offs that may be necessary in order to address the primary causal agents of crises like declining caribou populations – humans.

DON HARRON
T H E C A N A D I A N P R E S STORONTO - Don Harron, who
entertained generations of Canadians with his comic alter ego Charlie Farquharson and helped bring the Canadian classic novel “Anne of Green Gables” from the page to the stage, has died. He was 90.
Harron’s eldest daughter Martha said her father died on Saturday mor-ning surrounded by family at his Toronto home. He had been suffering from cancer.
The wit and humour that landed him roles on CBC radio programs and television variety shows such as “Hee Haw” continued to define her father to the very end, Martha Harron said.
“He was still sharp. He was still capable of being funny even though his voice was barely above a whisper,” she said in a telephone interview from Toronto. “It’s horribly sad, but it’s beautiful too.”
Harron was born in Toronto in 1924 and, according to his own accounts in past interviews, got his start in show business at an early age.
Harron said he began his career as a cartoonist drawing caricatures of people at banquets in the 30s before landing an audition for CBC radio.
Harron’s granddaughter, freelance journalist Zoe Cormier, said Harron’s intellectual passions nearly led him down a very different career path than the one that made him famous.
His passion for philosophy won him scholastic awards at the University of Toronto, she said, adding his confi-dence in both academic and entertain-ment arenas foreshadowed the range of roles he would take on during his performing career.
“He’s one of the few people that I would describe as a true polymath,”
Cormier said. “Anything he ever put his hand to he excelled at.”
Harron’s acting career saw him take on roles on stages from London to Stratford, Ont., but the character for which he’s best remembered stemmed from a very different type of experi-ence.
Charlie Farquharson, a fictitious folksy story teller from Parry Sound, Ont. who poked fun at almost any-thing Canadian, became a cult classic that lasted decades.
Harron said a stint working on an Ontario farm inspired him to create the character in 1952.
“It took me 10 years really to bring it fully out in the open, to come out of the closet, Harron recalled in a 1977 CBC interview.
The Farquharson character debuted on CBC’s “The Big Review,” but went on to make regular appearances on the U.S. variety show “Hee Haw.”
But Harron’s most celebrated work was accomplished behind the scenes when he helped create the musical version of “Anne of Green Gables,” the Lucy Maud Montgomery classic about a red-haired orphan living on Prince Edward Island.
Harron joined forces with Norman and Elaine Campbell and Mavor Moore to turn the beloved novel into a CBC television production in 1955.
Harron told the Canadian Press that he didn’t have to dig deep for inspiration when Norman Campbell approached him about a collaboration.
“I said I’d been reading a book to my kids called ‘Anne of Green Gables’ and it seems to me that this little girl has such an imagination that the only way you can really realize it would be in song,” Harron recalled in a 2014 interview.
Nine years later, the team adapted the television version into one for the stage.
The play has been performed for more than 50 consecutive years at the Charlottetown Festival, a fact Harron sees as a stroke of good fortune.
“To have a theatre that will do it every year, that’s luck,” he said.
Cormier said her grandfather was drawn to projects about strong Canadian women, adding he also col-laborated on a musical about artist Emily Carr entitled “The Wonder of it All.”
Cormier said Harron enjoyed cap-turing a “celebration of the female mind,” adding his patriotism was also a driving artistic force.
“Canada is constantly riddled with being perceived as America’s little sibling, but we’ve had some really unique, really beautiful products. He really wanted . . . to bring that alive.”
Harron’s career also included a five-year stint as host of CBC Radio’s “Morningside,” the show later helmed by Peter Gzowski.
In recent years Harron lent his tal-ents to a campaign to persuade other seniors to consider using canes and walkers to help keep them steady on their feet. He used his Charlie alter-ego in a postcard campaign showing him using a cane, scooter and walker, urging other seniors to “Get over bein’ an old fogey! Get a handle on life.”
Harron is survived by his partner Claudette Gareau and his three daugh-ters, some of whom have followed him into show business.
Mary Harron has earned acclaim as the director of such movies as “American Psycho,” and Kelley Harron is working to turn the “Anne of Green Gables” musical into a film.

BY TIMES STAFFThe Beaver Valley Nitehawks dom-
inated the Grand Forks Border Bruins on Saturday and Sunday, outscoring their Murdoch division rivals 17-6 in a home-and-home tilt on the weekend.
The Hawks cruised to an 8-3 vic-tory on Saturday in Grand Forks, before skating to a 9-3 win on Sunday at the Hawks Nest. The victories give the 27-10-1-4 Hawks a seven-point lead in the division over second place Castlegar Rebels with 52 points. The Rebels split a pair of games with the Spokane Braves on the weekend.
The Nelson Leafs dropped to third place after losing a pair of match-es to Fernie Ghostriders, 5-2, and Columbia Valley Rockies 3-0, while just four points separate the fourth-place Braves and second-place Rebels.
In Sunday’s match, the Hawks’
Ross Armour poured in a hat trick and added an assist to lead the Hawks to their fifth win in six games this month.
Allan Pruss opened the scoring finishing a setup from Michael Pruss and Mitch Foyle to give the Hawks a 1-0 lead at 11:41 of the first.
Grand Forks’ Jay Sidhu tied it 43 seconds later, but Armour would get his first of the night to put the Hawks up for good at 6:31. Allan Pruss rounded out the first-period scoring giving the Hawks a 3-1 lead and Armour and Reid Anderson would make it 5-1 by the end of the second.
Braydon Horcoff, Armour, Spencer McLean, and Michael Pruss would add third-period goals while Bryson Yee scored a pair for the Bruins to round out the scoring as the Hawks out-shot the Border Bruins 42-27. Foyle
also pitched in with three assists, while Allan Pruss had two goals and an assist, and Tyler Hartman, Brody Jennings, and Lyle Frank each assist-ed on two goals on the night.
Goaltender Carson Schamerhorn earned the victory for the Nitehawks.
In Saturday’s 8-3 win, Hartman and Allan Pruss each scored two goals and added an assist, while Michael Pruss and Reid Anderson also had three point nights with a goal and two assists, and Walker Sidoni pitched in with three helpers.
Nine of the Hawks 12 players counted points in the game, out-shooting the Bruins 40-27.
The Nitehawks hit the road this weekend with games against the 100-Mile House Wranglers on Friday, and Doug Birks division leading Kamloops Storm on Saturday.

The Trail Smoke Eaters dropped a pair of matches to the two BCHL leading teams on the weekend at the Cominco Arena, los-ing 6-3 to the Penticton Vees Saturday, fol-lowing a 5-4 heartbreaker to the Nanaimo Clippers on Friday.
Trail goaltender Brett Clark kept the Smokies in the game over the first two periods, as The Smokies trailed Penticton 4-3 despite being outshot 36-17.
The Vees would pull away in the third, however, as Connor Chartier led the Penticton attack with five points, includ-ing an assist on Lewis Zerter-Gossage winning goal at 16:42 of the second period.
“I thought we executed our game plans fairly well,” said Trail assistant coach Craig Clare. “We played two of the top teams, fairly similar in style, and it really came down to not being able to finish at critical times of the game, where we really needed a goal, or needed to get the puck out, and right now we’re just not able to execute on those timely plays.”
Penticton opened the scoring on Cody DePourcq’s ninth goal of the season at 2:48 of the first period, but Dallas Calvin would tie it on a Craig Martin set up, and Charlie Zuccarini would net his 26th of the season, putting the Smoke Eaters ahead 47 seconds into the second period on a power play goal.
The Vees tied it at two on a goal by Steen Cooper 4:50 into the middle frame, but the Smoke Eaters regained the lead on a Bryan Basilico tally with the assist going to AP Spencer McLean of the Beaver Valley Nitehawks.
Chartier netted his second of the night
and fifth of the season midway through the third for the insurance marker, and Cam Amantea sunk an empty netter for the 6-3 win.
The Vees fired 45 shots at Clark who was named the game’s third star, while Hunter Miska stopped 24 shots for his 23rd win in goal for the Vees.
Despite the losses, Clare was pleased with the play of new additions Jason Passmore and Sheldon Brett, and in par-
ticular defenceman Evan MacEachern who came over in the Scotty Davidson trade with the Chilliwack Chiefs.
“He (MacEacherrn) came as advertised, he moves well for a d-man, moves the puck well, and likes to jump up in the play so we’re really excited.”
In Friday’s match, Nanaimo’s Sheldon Rempal scored the winning goal on the power play with 4:15 remaining in the game to give the Clippers the 5-4 victory.
In a see-saw battle, Nanaimo opened the scoring on a Kale Bennett goal at 18:44 of the first. But Basilico would tie it 1:46 into the second period, before Brett Roulston put the Clips up 2-1 at 7:33.
Four minutes later, Calvin evened it up, finishing a pretty passing play from Ryan Swanson and Martin. Swanson would give the Smokies the 3-2 lead at 14:18, however, Jacob Jackson tied it on a power play before the period was out, and Edwin Hookenson gave the Clippers the 4-3 lead at 3:12 of the third. Zuccarini would team up with Jake Lucchini to tie it at 4-4 on the power play, but Rempal iced it just over two minutes later.
The Clippers outshot the Smokies 42-35 with Guillaume Decelles earning his league-leading 26th win of the season.
The close losses have to be discouraging for a Trail team that competes hard every night, losing three of their past six games by one goal, and a 6-4 match to Vernon that included an empty netter.
“It is frustrating, but to see us compete and be in these games, it’s a step forward for this organization from where we were last year,” said Clare. “I mean you have to look at the positives of where we are. Is it disappointing that we’re losing? Absolutely . . . but from where we were last year we are in a better spot as an organization, and with the talent level we have, with the quality and character kids that we have, we are way ahead.”
Trail travels to Merritt tonight to face the Centennials in a make-up game from last week. The Centennials are coming off a 4-1 victory over Penticton on Friday and 6-3 win over Nanaimo on Sunday.

T H E A S S O C I A T E D P R E S SKREISCHBERG, Austria -
Mikael Kingsbury led a Canadian podium sweep in the men’s dual moguls at the freestyle world championships on Monday while Olympic gold medallist Justine Dufour-Lapointe won women’s sil-ver and her sister Chloe earned bronze.
Kingsbury, from Deux-Montagnes, Que., defeated Philippe Marquis of Quebec City 20-15 in the men’s final for his first world dual moguls gold after finishing runner-up twice.
Kingsbury bounced back from losing his moguls title Sunday, when he was upset in the final by Anthony Benna of France.
Marc-Antoine Gagnon of Terrebonne, Que., completed the Canadian sweep by beating Sho
Kashima of the United States in the small final.
On the women’s side American Hannah Kearney defeated Montreal’s Dufour-Lapointe 29-6 in the final, a day after the Canadian beat Kearney in the moguls final.
It was Kearney’s 10th medal and fourth gold at a major champion-ship. She won the world title in moguls in 2005 and two years ago, but it was her first triumph in dual moguls.
Yulia Galysheva of Kazakhstan edged defending champion Chloe Dufour-Lapointe 18-17 for the bronze medal. Dufour-Lapointe was beaten by her younger sister Justine in the semifinals.
The next medal events of the freestyle skiing and snowboard worlds are the slopestyle finals for both disciplines on Wednesday.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESSThe Seattle
Seahawks’ calling card is still defence, they still delight in taunting opponents with safety Richard Sherman still serving as tormenter-in-chief, and free-spirited coach Pete Carroll wouldn’t change a thing - even if he could.
The Patriots, on the other hand, follow Brady’s lead and pun-ish opponents with little fanfare on the other side of ball, then button up their lips for fear coach Bill Belichick will have their tongues surgically removed and sold off as spare parts.
There are some similarities, to be sure. Both teams are smart, opportunistic and lethal when it matters most, in the fourth quar-ter. Seattle and New England ranked Nos. 1 and 2 in the NFL in point differential during the regular season, and though you wouldn’t know it from the way they played Sunday against Green Bay, the Seahawks were No. 2 league-wide in fewest turnovers allowed with 14, bettered only by the Patriots’ 13 giveaways (tied with the Packers).
But if contrasting
styles make for great fights, this one could be Ali-Frazier IV.
It pits the Patriots, the best team of the last decade and the only back-to-back Super Bowl winner in that span, against a young Seattle team that could cement its dominance of this decade by suc-cessfully defending the Super Bowl crown it claimed last year by levelling Peyton Manning and his pre-viously high-flying Denver Broncos. It pits Carroll, who got fired by New England owner Robert Kraft in 1999 for being too much of a players’ coach, against the uber-serious guy who got his job, quickly realized what he had in Brady, and painstak-ingly transformed him-self from a defensive mastermind into the NFL version of Gen. George Patton (“We shall attack and attack until we are exhausted, and then we shall attack again.”)
Say this much for Carroll, though; he made good use of his time away from pro football. He always had a knack for trick plays and during a very suc-cessful run at Southern
California with a suc-cession of talent at the skill positions, he honed his offensive chops. He’s also proved adaptable enough, and remained enough of an optimist, to help develop a very good quarterback of his own in third-year star Russell Wilson.
Both of those things figured in Seattle’s chaotic second-half comeback against the Packers on Sunday. The Seahawks got one touchdown off a fake field goal, recovered an onside kick to set up another, and added a two-point conversion after Wilson scrambled right and then threw a duck all the way over to the left corner of the end zone, over a mesmer-ized Packers second-ary. And even though Wilson was seemingly intercepted every time he targeted Jermaine Kearse, he went right back to Kearse for the game-winner in over-time.
“It’s kind of a micro-cosm of our whole sea-son,” Sherman said. “It always seems like we’re down and out and every-thing’s done. We’re all out. There’s no way for us to turn it around. And then we find a way to turn it around.”
But you can bet, with two weeks to prepare, that Belichick will have devised a scheme or two to tempt and then test the limits of Wilson’s
experience. He did that Sunday in confound-ing the Colts’ Andrew Luck, another very good young quarterback and in between, found time to unveil a trick play or two of his own. Already ahead by 10 in the third quarter, left tackle Nate Solder reported as an eligible receiver, then rumbled off the line in time to catch a 16-yard TD from Brady.
Belichick even cracked a smile - report-edly, anyway - and when Brady was asked about Solder’s catch after-ward, he reminded everyone the Patriots had wide receiver Julian Edelman throw another scoring pass the previ-ous week off an option play.
“Maybe,” he added coyly, “we’ve got more tricks up our sleeve.”
Let’s hope so, since the Seattle team that upset them two years ago was looking for respectability and this edition has already earned it the hard way. Back then, Sherman made a point of antagonizing Brady all game long, punctuated by the “You mad, bro?” dig.
We’ll know the answer to that ques-tion soon enough. The guess here is still ‘yes.’ and that the Patriots will punctuate it with a 24-17 win in the Super Bowl when it’s all said and done.

Canadian men’s sweep
FROM PAGE 11The wins move the Cents into
third place in the Interior division, one point up on West Kelowna Warriors who beat Powell River 6-4 Saturday but lost to the Vernon Vipers 6-3 Friday.
The Smokies currently trail the fourth-place Warriors by 19 points, with 17 games remaining and two games in hand.
“We’ve known since the new year, that all these games are as close to must-win as you can have, so for any chance for us to even get into the mix we need to start beating the teams we have to, and that means West Kelowna, Merritt,
and Salmon Arm,” said Clare. “We pretty much have to hit for the cycle here on all those games.”
Trail embarks on a long road trip to the coast this weekend to face former Smoke Eater captain Scott Davidson and the Chilliwack Chiefs Friday, and play Langley and Coquitlam on Saturday and Sunday.
Davidson scored his first as a Chief and 12th of the season in a 4-2 Chilliwack victory over Surrey Eagles on Saturday at Prospera Place in Chilliwack. With the win, the Chiefs move into first place of the Mainland division with 52 points, one point ahead of Langley Rivermen.

Box office
‘American Sniper’ has record debut
T H E A S S O C I A T E D P R E S SNEW YORK - Clint Eastwood’s R-rated Iraq
War drama “American Sniper” opened in January like a superhero movie in July, taking in a record $105.3 million over the Martin Luther King Jr. four-day weekend.
The film’s success obliterated forecasts and set numerous box-office records. It easily surpassed “Avatar” to become the biggest January weekend ever.
This was actually the third week of release for “American Sniper,” which played in just a hand-ful of theatres for two weeks. That release helped stoke demand for the film, in which Bradley Cooper stars as Navy SEAL marksman Chris Kyle.
The resounding wide-release opening is also tops for the 84-year-old Eastwood. And it, in one weekend, gives the Oscar best-picture race something it was lacking: a big box-office hit. “American Sniper” is nominated for six Academy Awards.
T H E A S S O C I A T E D P R E S SPASADENA, Calif. - “American Idol” produ-
cers have talked about a cross-promotion with “Empire,” Fox’s hot new series about a music industry family, perhaps getting some of the contestants on the scripted show, producers said Saturday.
“The music connection would be silly to ignore,” said Trish Kinane, executive producer of “American Idol.” The two shows air back-to-back on Wednesday nights. “Empire” has been a suc-cess out of the box, already earning an order for a second season, while age has cost “American Idol” its long-time status of television’s biggest show.
While the show had good contestants last year, one reason the show faded in the ratings is because some of them could have done more to connect with an audience, host Ryan Seacrest said.
Fox considers cross-promotion to boost
‘American Idol’
Leisure
Dear Annie: My wife and I are in our late 70s and we raised four children. We lost our second son to suicide when he was 7. He suffered from major depression.
A few years ago, our daughter wrote us, saying that her eldest brother had sexually molested her when she was very young. She said we knew about it and covered it up. We knew nothing about it and were very upset. I confronted our son, now 42, and he admit-ted to it and was so sorry for what he did all those years ago. He also said he is not the same person he was then.
I told our daughter that her brother admit-ted everything and felt terrible about it and that I hope at some point, he will tell her directly how sorry he is. Since he became an adult, this son is the kindest person and has the closest relationship with us of all our chil-dren.
Last week, our youngest son and his family came to visit. It turns out that his eldest brother also had molested him when they were children. But he never appeared as devastated as his sister, and moved on.
What are we sup-posed to do at this stage of our lives? Do you think our eldest son could have been molested at an early age and then acted out like this on his sib-lings? We found out later that there was a pedophile priest in our local parish. Our son has never admitted to any molestation when he was a boy and we are afraid to ask him. Any
advice? -- DistraughtDear Distraught:
This is a terribly dis-turbing situation, but please don’t hide from it. Your son has already admitted the abuse. He needs to apologize to both of his siblings and ask for forgiveness. We are glad that he has changed for the better, but that doesn’t help his sister or brother come to terms with what happened. We strongly urge you to get into family counsel-ing and work through this. All of you would benefit, including your eldest son.
Dear Annie: You recently published a letter from a woman who was complain-ing that her husband recently developed anx-iety about traveling in a car.
This onset of anxi-ety, particularly in midlife or later, could be a symptom of Parkinson’s disease. If the anxiety is accom-panied by terrible nightmares (includ-
ing yelling, punching and kicking) and/or by constipation that seems to develop where it didn’t exist before, Parkinson’s could well be the reason.
I watched these symptoms develop and didn’t understand why -- until the twitch-ing started in one thumb. Then a neu-rologist confirmed that these symptoms were, indeed, indications that Parkinson’s was at work. Her husband should get to a neu-rologist now. -- Wish We Knew
Dear Wish: Thank you for giving us the opportunity to men-tion some of the symp-toms of Parkinson’s. Parkinson’s is a pro-gressive and chronic neurological disease that interferes with the body chemicals that control movement and mood. It usually begins with mild symptoms that advance slowly, so they are often ignored.
S y m p t o m s include tremors or
shaking in any part of the body when it’s at rest, changes in hand-writing, loss of smell, trouble sleeping, mus-cle tension and rigidity, changes or difficulty in walking, constipation, a muffled voice, feeling dizzy on a regular basis and depression. If you

Leisure
For Wednesday, Jan. 21, 2015 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Old friends will be back in your life again. Enjoy this opportunity, because it’s good to touch base and have history with people. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Many of you will encoun-ter old bosses and authority figures from your past at this time. Some of you will be in touch with a parent you have not talked to for a while. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) If you have plans to travel in the next month, double-check all your arrangements because delays and glitches are likely. However, this will be an easy time to study and finish important papers. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Use the energy of the next month to wrap up details regarding inheritanc-es, insurance matters and shared property. It will be
easy to do this. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Ex-partners are back in your life again for some rea-son. This could be pleasant for some, but not for others. And so it goes. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Your efficiency at work will suffer in the coming month due to delays, short-ages and goofy errors. Just be patient with yourself and others. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Old flames will be back in your life again. This often is perversely exciting, isn’t it? Then again, some of you might want to hide in Aisle 3. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Stock the fridge, because in all likelihood, relatives will be camped on your door-step in the next few weeks. Family reunions and other situations will attract family back to you now.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Transportation delays, missed buses and trains, confused communications and friends from the past are par for the course in the coming month. Allow extra time for these delays in your daily routine. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Checks in the mail will be late, and money issues will be stalled during the next
month. Demonstrate grace under pressure. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Mercury retrograde is taking place in your sign now, which means all kinds of goofy mistakes and lost items will dog your steps. Just be patient with the way things are. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) In the month ahead, your ability to research and
study will be excellent! In particular, you can research anything from the past with great efficiency and produc-tive results. YOU BORN TODAY You have a colorful personality, and are quite comfortable being a star. In fact, you often are a trendsetter in your group or in society at large. You will face a major decision this year. Save your money in the first half of this year and cut down on
overhead expenses because this will help you later in the year. Your integrity and patience will be tested. Birthdate of: Cat Power, singer/songwriter; Jeff Koons, sculptor; Martin Shaw, actor. (c) 2015 King Features Syndicate, Inc.

B y G r e G N e s t e r o f fNelson Star
A piece of land once earmarked for one of Nelson’s most controversial developments is back on the market but might yet be turned into commer-cial housing.
Kutenai Landing, a residential com-plex, was supposed to be built next to the Chahko Mika mall, but slow sales combined with the developer’s financial problems effectively killed the project.
Mike Rink’s New Future Group lost control of the site to Paradigm Financial of Kelowna. Although a pro-motional sign is still standing, an on-site sales office was removed in 2012. Paradigm hired New Town Services, a Kelowna development and consulting firm, to look at doing something with the land.
“We’ve had discussions with them over the last year and a half,” city man-ager Kevin Cormack said last week, although those talks have been in fits and starts. “They have spent time with our staff to look at options. They would like to move forward with some type of project, likely quite a bit different from the original one.”
The concept would probably be a mix of commercial and residential, Cormack added.
Keith Funk of New Town said the project has undergone two concep-tual designs for mixed use projects.
However, “In each case, the level of remediation needed on the land inflated the cost of development to the point where investors lost interest.”
New Town is now seeking a new developer for the site who would be willing to buy the land from Paradigm. “Until that team is assembled, we are on hold,” Funk said.
As of December 1, the 2.74 acre property at 110 Cedar Street was listed for “court ordered” sale by Syber Realty of Kelowna with an asking price of slightly less than $3.5 million. The latest assessed value is about $1.86 mil-lion, down from just over $2 million the previous year.
The online listing states: “The vend-or has undertaken extensive investiga-tion with the assistance of a private planning firm with respect to alternate uses for the site including a combina-tion of potential phased townhomes plus commercial/retail space. The city has participated in this process and has been generally supportive.”
The former VSA lands were pur-chased by a local consortium, includ-ing former mayor Dave Elliott, in late 2001 for $1.1 million to prevent a stan-dalone Walmart from being built there. The group then sold the land to Rink. However, the project was fraught with legal challenges and controversy over public process before it imploded due to market forces.

Target closing impacts 200 employeesB y t r e v o r C r a w l e yCranbrook Townsman
Target has put a plan in place to dis-continue Canadian operations, announced the company last Thursday, after filing for creditor protection in Ontario Supreme Court.
The company has 133 stores across the country, including a location in Cranbrook, which employs approximately 200 people.
Mike Keogh, store manager for the Cranbrook location, declined to comment on the announcement, however, a com-pany spokesperson said closures will begin in the next four to five months.
“We also don’t yet know when each store will close, but it will vary by store,” said Molly Snyder. “The stores will all likely be closed within 16-20 weeks. And we don’t provide details on specific store locations, but I can confirm that none of the stores were profitable.”
It’s a stark turnaround after only two years in operation, when the company—to much fanfare—announced it was expand-ing into Canada.
The Cranbrook location in the Tamarack Centre opened up on May 7, 2013 after completing renovations in a space previ-ously occupied by Zellers.

Rick Mercer to attend Yoho Blow DaysB y J o e l t a N s e y
Golden StarYoho Blow Days has been
running for what co-organiz-er Craig Chapman believes to be over 30 years, but it’s safe to say the annual festival in Field is about to get its big-gest dose of national atten-tion in 2015.
That will come via this year’s special guest: comed-ian Rick Mercer, one of the CBC’s most popular on-air personalities.
On Sunday, Mercer will film a segment for The Rick Mercer Report from the fes-
tival after Chapman invited him to check out what the event had to offer.
Mercer says Yoho Blow Days features various activ-ities that make it a natural fit for his hit comedy show including a downhill race on cross country skis and human bowling.
“A perfect segment for an RMR show is interesting people doing fun things in a beautiful setting. Obviously I think we’ve covered all those bases,” Mercer said.
“It just sounds like it would be a laugh.”
Other highlights from the three-day festival, which runs from Jan 23-25, include a pond hockey tourna-ment, a Christmas tree bon-fire and a Saturday night dance and concert featuring Vancouver’s The River and the Road.
“The population of Field is in decline so in some ways you’d think the festival (would be too) but in actual fact it’s kind of brought the community together and the festival is more popular than ever…people love it,” Chapman said.
