NDP nomination meeting for Cariboo North Sunday
This Sunday NDP members in the riding of Cariboo North will determine who their next candi-date will be at a nomination meet-ing taking place at the Royal Ca-nadian Legion Hall in Quesnel.
Their choice is between Ques-nel city councillor and forest industry worker Sushil Thapar and 150 Mile rancher and former Cariboo Regional District direc-tor Duncan Barnett.
Both candidates will speak and answer questions.
The meeting kicks off at 1 p.m. and will feature keynote speaker
Adrian Dix, B.C. NDP leader.NDP Constituency Association
president Brian Kennelly said the public will have an opportunity to see and hear Dix and Cariboo-Chilcotin NDP candidate Charlie Wyse talk about the NDP’s ideas to change B.C. for the better.
“It’s a chance for people to hear Adrian’s ideas for positive change and I think that will reso-nate with a lot of people because I think a lot of people are waiting for change,” Kennelly said.
“Dix has been putting forward practical ideas to support good jobs, provide workers with better training and make post-secondary education more affordable for
young people.”Kennelly has been part of the
NDP Association on and off for 30 years.
“This was a Social Credit rid-ing for quite a while, and then we had an NDP MLA by the name of Frank Garden, and then we had a few terms with a Lib-eral candidate and then it went to Bob Simpson who was elected for two terms with the NDP,” he recalled, adding Simpson left caucus in January 2011, and then decided to run as an Inde-pendent.
“There is a sizeable portion of people who worked during the elections of 2005 and 2009 to
get an NDP MLA elected who believe in the NDP values and platform and want to see that continued,” Kennelly said, add-ing it’s difficult to know what an Independent’s philosophy and without a party platform, what an Independent stands for.
“I guess two questions are: who they are accountable to and who their audience is, will they be lis-tened to without being a member of government or a member of the Opposition?”
Although only previously reg-istered NDP members are eli-gible to vote, the general public is welcome to attend and hear the speakers.

On Jan. 14, a male who fraudulently iden-tified himself as a law-yer contacted a local family by telephone and requested several thousands of dollars to be wired to him via Western Union to cover legal fees for his rep-resentation of a family member.
The family imme-diately became suspi-cious and reported the matter to the Williams Lake RCMP.
Though the “Emer-gency Scam” (or some-times referred to as the “Grandparent Scam”) has been around for years, the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre warns the public to be on alert after noting a marked increase in the number of complaints in the last two months.
In the typical sce-nario, a grandparent receives a phone call from a con-artist claim-ing to be one of his or her grandchildren. The caller goes on to say that they are in some kind of trouble and need money immedi-ately. Typically they claim being in a car
accident, trouble re-turning from a foreign country or they need bail money.
Victims don’t verify the story until after the money has been sent as the caller specifi-cally asks that they do not want other relatives to know what has hap-pened by asking “Can you please help me? I’m in jail (or in the hospital, or in some type of financial need). But don’t tell dad. He would kill me if he found out, please send the money ASAP. I’m scared.”
Wanting to help their grandchild, the victim sends money by a mon-ey transfer company such as Money Gram or Western Union.
Variations on the scam exist such as an old neighbour, a friend of the family etc. but predominantly the emergency scam is directed toward the grandparents.
The Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre (Phone-busters) was estab-lished in January 1993 and is jointly operated by the Royal Cana-
dian Mounted Police, the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) and the Competition Bureau Canada.
The CAFC is a na-tional call centre where victims can report fraud complaints. The information is used to assist in investigations.
The Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre plays a key role in educating
the public about spe-cific fraudulent mass marketing and identity theft pitches.
It also helps to pre-vent similar crimes from taking place in the future through its abil-ity to identify emerging trends
The Williams Lake RCMP is asking the public to be aware of this and other phone
scams presently cir-culating the area and encourages anyone who may have infor-mation regarding this incident or any other crime to contact the RCMP at 1-250-392-6111 or Crime Stop-pers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). Crime Stop-pers also subscribes to web tips at www.bc-crimestopppers.com.

Logging truck collides with pick-upThere were no inju-
ries sustained in a two-vehicle motor vehicle accident that happened Monday evening on Highway 97 south near the Mission Road turn-off to Sugar Cane.
Williams Lake RCMP, 150 Mile De-partment and BC Am-bulance responded to the accident at approxi-mately 6:25 p.m., Mon-day on Jan. 14.
The RCMP said it is believed that an empty logging truck was trav-elling north towards Williams Lake when it spun out of control causing the truck to go into the north bound
ditch.The two trailers that
were being towed by the truck came to rest, blocking both north bound lanes.
A pick up truck trav-eling south was subse-quently struck by the rear trailer of the log-ging truck.
Although the vehicle was severely damaged, the occupant in the pick up truck was not injured nor was the logging truck driver.
BC Ambulance Ser-vice confirmed it did not transport any injured people from the scene.
The matter is still un-der investigation.
Scam on senior averted in lakecity

In a special open board meeting Tuesday School District 27 trustees hinted at the direction they might take when it comes to rati-fying or rejecting recom-mendations for closing and consolidating schools in Williams Lake con-tained in their Initial Op-tions Report.
The trustees scheduled the meeting to begin open discussions on propos-als in the report, taking into consideration input gathered during the recent public consultation pro-cess.
But given several in-depth updates and reports from staff and two pub-lic question periods, the meeting went into over-time, continuing on for four hours and prompting
the trustees to call a sec-ond special open board meeting for tonight to continue the discussion.
The trustees only had time to voice their opin-ions on the recommenda-tion to make Columneetza and Williams Lake sec-ondary schools into one grades 7 to 12 secondary school on two campuses.
They didn’t have time to express their opinions on proposals for clos-ing Wildwood, Glendale, and Kwaleen elementary schools which will be the primary focus of discus-sion tonight.
The meeting starts at 6:30 p.m. and opens with a half-hour question peri-od for the public on items on the agenda. Meetings also close with questions from the public on items not on the agenda.
There were about a
dozen people in atten-dance for Tuesday’s meet-ing.
Several people took the microphone to express concerns about issues such as extra portables needed to support the in-flux of new students at Cataline, Chilcotin Road and Nesika elementary schools from the schools proposed for closure. There were also concerns expressed about losing the year round program at Glendale elementary, and why the trustees didn’t present alternate options for the one secondary school on two campus model.
One speaker said many parents also felt their concerns were not being heard and that the deci-sions to close schools had already been made.
Secretary treasurer
Bonnie Roller presented a comprehensive update on current enrolment figures along with projected en-rolment for 10 years into the future.
Her report also in-cluded a comprehensive analysis of bus routes; a detailed financial report on implications and sav-ings for each school pro-posed for closure; and details on what would be needed to accommodate students at the elementary schools receiving students from the schools proposed for closure.
Superintendent Mark Thiessen presented a de-tailed report on research staff had done on how Salmon Arm and Dawson Creek operate their one school/two campus sec-ondary programs.
He also presented two options on how the con-
cept might be implement-ed at Columneetza and Williams Lake secondary schools.
Several trustees spoke in support of the second scenario that would see one campus being a mid-dle school for grades 7 to 9 and the other a senior campus with grades 10 to 12, but still allowing for some travel opportunities between schools for elec-tives, still under the one school/two campus man-agement option.
Trustee Doug Neufeld noted that keeping the one school/two campus model allows for more flexibility when it comes to offering courses for students and movement of teachers to accommodate the pro-grams offered.
Trustee Jackie Aus-tin said she preferred the middle school to be lo-
cated at the Columneetza campus which is further away from the downtown core than is the WLSS campus.
She noted that parents had expressed concerns about young Grade 7 students having easy ac-cess to going downtown unsupervised during their lunch breaks.
After the meeting Neufeld and Boehm con-curred with Austin that the middle school should be located on the Colum-neetza campus.
Boehm also noted that the idea of making Nesika elementary part of Colum-neetza secondary and con-solidating all secondary students on that enlarged campus was rejected by parents in the Our Kids, Our Future public consul-tations of a few years ago because it would mean
making WLSS into one large elementary school.
She and Neufeld noted that parents didn’t like the idea of creating one mega-elementary school that would funnel students into the downtown core.
Neufeld also noted that creating a mega-elemen-tary school would also re-quire the closure of more elementary schools in the Williams Lake bowl area than are currently pro-posed for closure. He said it was also unlikely that the Ministry of Education would approve of making the city’s newest and spe-cialty equipped secondary school into an elementary school.
All of the reports shared at the Tuesday meeting will be on the district website linked to the lat-est Initial Options Report update.
The ribbon was cut to officially open the newly renovated kitchen at the Salvation Army com-munity and family ser-vices building on Borland Street in Williams Lake Jan. 15.
What the Salvation Army thought would be an $88,000 project un-folded into a $380,000 project because of the increased volumes of people accessing the soup kitchen and the required upgrades.
“All of a sudden be-cause of the volume of traffic coming through the building, we were told we had to upgrade the build-ing to current codes,” Salvation Army Cpt. Claudine Kadonaga said, adding those costs also in-cluded new furnaces and duct systems.
Eliza Mitchell, a rancher from Tatlayoko Lake, is a director on the Garfield Weston Founda-tion, and a member of the Weston family. She was
able to secure funding from the foundation — $185,000 — and the Sal-vation Army divisional headquarters contributed $150,000 toward the ren-ovations.
“If we had to do it on our own, Williams Lake had run out of funds and it wouldn’t have hap-pened,” Kadonaga ex-plained.
Mitchell said her grand-parents were the original ones to support the Salva-tion Army in Canada.
“They made the first donation in 1956 and have done so every year since,” she said.
Over the last three years, a total of $515,000 has been spent renovating the building, making an exercise room, a large ac-tivity centre, classrooms, small meeting rooms, a larger eating area, and larger food bank storage area.
It’s been suggested that the Salvation Army could have bought a building for the amount of money used for renovations, but Kadonaga said there’s
“no way” they could have found another building that would have suited their needs and provide the operating space re-quired.
Operating on an an-nual budget of $696,783, for programming and 13 staff, the Salvation Army serves 2,000 individuals through the food bank.
Without its 45 to 50 volunteers, Kadonaga said the Salvation Army could not operate.
Outdated bread and
produce arrives from lo-cal grocery stores.
“We’re reclaiming food that would have oth-erwise been thrown out,” Kadonaga added.
Non perishables come from local food drives, and every three to six weeks a truck load ar-rives from the Canada Food Bank Association, with foods she said are filler items such as cereal, cookies, personal hygiene items. They aren’t staples, but they help to augment
hampers.Present users of the
food bank are 80 per cent on social assistance, 13 per cent on pension, and seven per cent working or on Employment Insur-ance.
Between 2007 and 2012, the Salvation Army saw a 1,000 per cent in-crease in service needs.
“A lot of that is not because the needs went up by 1,000 per cent, but with all the renovations and increase in staffing,
we’ve got added ability to provide services to more people.”
In 2012, 456 new households accessed the service. People who used the food bank for the first time or were amalgam-ated because they moved into another house. The first two weeks of Janu-ary have shown a 25 per cent decrease in the num-bers of people receiving hampers compared to the same time period in 2012.
“That’s an encouraging picture,” Kadonaga said, adding she’s hoping those first two weeks are an in-dication of the future.
“It would be great be-cause unfortunately our donations over Christmas were down about 40 per cent for food items.”
Presently about 85 lunches are served Mon-day to Friday. In 2012 25,899 meals were served free of charge in the din-ing room, plus 30 lunches daily to needy students at Marie Sharpe elementary school.
Those meals and food bank distribution totalled
a over $500,000 in food value, Kadonaga said.
“Not bad considering our food services budget, which includes the build-ing and everything is $300,000.”
The thrift store gener-ates $310,000 in sales, of which $115,000 is grant-ed as a profit back to food services.
Kadonaga’s been asked if the food bank is sustain-able and answered it’s not always a “hand out” but rather a “hand up.”
“It’s sustainable as long as we can give peo-ple a hand up,” she ex-plained, adding spiritual and emotional develop-ment, drug and alcohol counselling, employment development, fitness, games, and craft pro-grams, life skill classes, budgeting courses, and group meetings are some of the ways they try to meet that challenge.
With the new kitchen the plan is to offer basic line-cook training, as well as janitorial and retail merchandising training.

Search on for beloved three-legged orange tabby
A Nimpo Lake family is hoping someone will find their cat Happy Feet Pete last seen running up Midnight Drive to Elev-enth Avenue Lane on Jan. 11.
Pete is an orange cat, missing his right hind foot. Tracey Walker found him at the Nimpo Lake dump on Jan. 2. She’s made it her mis-sion to rescue cats from the dump and routinely visits the dump to see if any cats are hanging out there.
“Our dump out here is kind of an open pit dump,” Walker said, adding it’s located a few hundred feet back from the highway. “I started last year making sure there were no cats at the dump. In 2011, we moved four cats from the dump over the Christmas weekend.”
The cats were trapped because they were very fearful. The Walkers found homes for two, kept one, and gave one to the BC SPCA Williams Lake.
“The SPCA has been great. Last winter I trans-ported 19 puppies out of here to the SPCA. They’ve been amazing.”
On Jan. 2, she did her usual stop and there had been a bit of fresh snow a few days before.
When she jumped out and looked for cat tracks in the snow, she ap-proached an old camper that had slipped over, an orange cat ran out and headed to a pile of metal scraps and vehicles.
“Heh buddy, I’m com-ing back for you this af-ternoon,” Walker told the cat.
After her shift at the Nimpo Lake post office,
she went home, picked up her trap and a can of sardines, and returned to the dump.
As she emerged from her truck, she deliberate-ly made a ton of noise, and walked toward the camper.
“I could see that he was curled up sleeping in there so I could see that he was very tired,” she recalled, adding it took three different comments for her to finally awake him.
He started meowing at her, she began feeding him from her hands, and then picked him up and put him in the trap and brought him home.
“He was the sweet-est cat,” she said. “We named him Happy Feet Pete because those front feet of his never stop. He’s always kneading and I had to go in there with either my work pants or snow pants be-cause when he sat on my lap, if I just had jog-ging pants or jeans on it hurt really badly,” she laughed.
When he was knead-ing, while he was sitting, the absence of his right hind foot caused him to wiggle his bum back and forth and it would slide on the floor.
“It was the cutest thing. I’ve never seen a cat do that before. We decided that the feet he had left were happy.”
It did not take long for the family to decide they wanted to keep Pete and didn’t want him trans-ferred to a shelter.
Their nine-year-old Maria was excited be-cause they’d lost an or-ange tabby cat not too long ago.
My husband and I both don’t work at re-ally high paying jobs so sometimes we’ll go to the community and ask for help with the cats we rescue,” Walker said.
“We’ve got lots of people here that have too many animals and we’ve got people that have money who don’t mind helping out.”
The community raised $190 to take Pete to the
Williams Lake Veteri-nary Hospital and Dr. Ross Hawkes checked him out and said his leg was fine, but he will need some arthritis manage-ment.
He was neutered on Jan. 10 and when the Walkers picked him up they placed him in their pickup truck inside a large dog kennel with a litter box, house, food and water, all insulated to keep him warm.
They were staying with some friends in Wil-
liams Lake.Unfortunately the next
day, when the truck door was opened for a few moments, Pete bolted.
Walker knocked on many doors in the neigh-bourhood of Eleventh Avenue Lane asking people to keep an eye out for him, and said people were very receptive.
“People were great and said if they see him they will let the vet hos-pital know,” Walker said.
The family left Wil-liams Lake on the week-end to return home, sad they didn’t have Pete.
“Maria was crying last night, but I told her it’s OK and we have lots of people trying to help us.”
Pete is on quite a few different Facebook pages throughout Williams Lake and area and there are lots of people com-municating back and forth, but the only word the family has had so far is that somebody thought they saw him at 2 p.m. Monday on Eleventh Av-enue Lane.
The family’s home phone isn’t working right now, but Walker or her husband Jeff can be reached at 250-742-3405.

Avoid putting organic material, such as grass clippings, branches, or garden waste, in the solid waste cart. These items only add unnecessary weight to the solid waste stream and increase the costs for every resident in Williams Lake. This material can be brought to the Central Cariboo Transfer Station on Frizzi Road and dropped o� free of charge.
The only items that are permitted go into the curb side recycling cart are:1. Paper products – o� ce paper, magazines, newspapers.2. Cardboard – corrugated cardboard and regular cardboard such as a cereal box.3. Plastics – must have the recycling symbol on it and the number inside the symbol must be 1 through 7. No Styrofoam allowed.4. Metal food cans – food or beverage containers.
Note: all above mentioned products must be clean.
Other recyclable material, such as glass, lead acid batteries, or propane bottles that cannot be put in the curb side recycling cart can be dropped o� at the Central Cariboo Transfer Station. Even more recyclable items can be brought to several locations in Williams Lake that participate in the product stewardship program.
A list of these companies can be found at the Encorp website (http://www.encorp.ca/cfm/), the Encorp toll free number 1-800-330-9767, or by calling the BC Recycling Hotline at 1-800-667-4321.
Any questions can be directed to City Hall at 250-392-2311.
NO GLASS IN RECYCLING CARTSHere are some easy do’s and don’ts that can assist everyone in making the collection of recyclables and solid waste easier for you, as well as the City of Williams Lake’s contractor.
DOs DON’TsHave the garbage/recycling cart at the curb before 7:00 am.
Take the garbage/recycling cart o� the curb the same day as it is collected.
Put shredded paper in a bag. Loose paper may escape when tipping the cart.
Record the serial number on the side of your cart to identify your cart from your neighbours.
Ensure the lid of the cart is fully closed. Partially opened lids will not be picked up.
Clean all recyclables before putting them in the recycling container.
Don’t put your carts on the street the night before your collection day. The cart’s subject to vandalism.
Don’t put the garbage/recycling carts any closer together than 1 meter.
Don’t leave your cart on the curb. This interferes with snow removal or street cleaning.
Don’t put your cart any closer than 2 meters from any obstruction such as vehicles or landscaping.
Don’t take the carts when you move. The carts belong to that address, NOT TO YOU.
PLEASE DO NOT put glass in the recycling cart. Glass in the recycling cart could end up broken. Broken glass spoils the recyclables and puts the workers who do the sorting at a great risk of injury. Instead of putting glass in the curb side recycling cart, it can be taken to the Central Cariboo Transfer Station or Canadian Tire.
Residents are asked to put garbage and recycling carts on the curb the morning of their collection day, not the night before, and to remove them from the curb as soon as possible following collection.
Residents are also asked not to park cars overnight on City streets when there is snow. City Bylaws contain provisions to tow vehicles that interfere with snow removal operations at the owner’s expense.

I have mixed feelings about the Idle No More protests. There are growing divisions within
the First Nations leadership, and the lack of clarity on how best to ad-dress First Nations’ poverty and un-resolved rights and title claims.
However, we must be very careful not to judge these protests too quickly or too harshly. The freedom to protest is a key tenet of a healthy democracy. While we might be inconvenienced by protests or even disagree with the
reasons for the protest , it’s im-portant to remem-ber that
the freedom to protest is a funda-mental democratic right.
We must take care that our im-patience with the personal incon-venience does not enable our gov-ernment to exercise authoritarian control over our freedom to express ourselves. The Idle No More protests have been a long time coming. They are a result of increasing frustration with treaty processes that are set up to fail, an Indian Act that maintains a paternalistic relationship with First Nations, and the development of nat-ural resources that continue to have unresolved ownership claims.
Our federal and provincial gov-ernments pay lip service to resolv-ing these long-standing issues but their focus on accelerating the de-velopment of natural resources has brought the issue of resource title and benefit sharing to a head. In the absence of consultation processes that work, clarity of ownership over these resources, and equitable shar-ing of the benefits of resource devel-opment, First Nations’ frustrations have built to the point that they feel compelled to take to the streets.
When the treaty table doesn’t work, when the government won’t resolve long-standing legal rights issues, and when companies and the government make money from natural resources to which they don’t have clear title, what is left for First Nations to do but disrupt the status quo to force action on these issues?
Instead of grumbling, if we take the time to educate ourselves about these issues and join the call for re-form maybe this time our political leaders will finally start doing the hard work of resolving these com-plex issues.

City always looking to improve on service
What to make of Idle no More
We’ve heard from res-idents about snow removal this winter,
and I want to assure everyone that when it snows, every avail-able piece of equipment is out and crews are working hard to clear the snow. Council has increased the snow budget over last year by
$70,000, up to n e a r l y a half a m i l l i o n dollars.
P r i -ority is given to the downtown core, and routes to the hospital and schools.
Clearing the snow from the downtown can only be done at night, and complete snow clear-ing everywhere can take days.
City staff work hard to remove snow promptly, and you can help them out by not parking on the street overnight, and waiting to put your garbage and recycling carts out the morning of your pickup.
The City is always looking to improving our delivery of ser-vice, and we appreciate com-ments and questions.
The process of hiring a new chief administrative officer for the city is moving along well.
We had interest from over 90 candidates, we have done the screening, and we are in the in-terview process.
We’re happy with the caliber of candidates. Stay tuned!
With all of the news in the last few months about the rural fire protection agreement with the CRD, I want to stress the impor-tance a positive, constructive re-lationship.
Despite disagreements, the city is committed to finding ways to work together in a respectful manner.
The city has always intended to deliver the service; the issue is strictly around agreeing on the cost of providing fire protection.
Kerry Cook is the mayor of Williams Lake.
Don’t be idle tomorrowThe scenes painted by the thousands who’ve lined
Canadian streets for the Idle No More rally has packed undeniable power.
So it would be unfortunate if that power is allowed to fade like some emotional scene in last month’s mov-ie as the media gaze moves on to the next issue of the day.
Protecting the land. Protecting the water. Providing the education and employment opportunities for peo-ple to lift themselves out of poverty.
These are issues central not just to First Nations peo-ple, but to Canadians in general.
And few among us would disagree these are things we would like to see enshrined as guiding principles for our nation.
That said, few among us would disagree these are principles that existed, or at least should have existed, long before Chief Theresa Spence and Attawapiskat entered the national consciousness.
And that is what concerns us.We seem to have energy to stand up and demand
change. But we question our stamina and our ability to follow through, to bring about that change.
Marches, signs and sweeping statements are a great way to attract attention. But they need to be followed with pinpoint demands, plans of action, transparency in implementation and accountability at the end of the process.
And ultimately, the engine for making that happen is the voter.
“Be the change you want to see” is a cliche because it is true. Take charge of yourself and your community and keep plugging away until the changes you want occur. If you support the goals of Idle No More, don’t be idle no more for just a little while. Pay attention to the final two words.
Be idle no more.- Cowichan News Leader Pictorial

Question of the weekA simple questionnaire would be nice
Editor:
Everybody has an opinion.Everybody has a right to an
opinion.Not every opinion is right.This old cowboy’s opinion.Re: South Lakeside Drive and
Highway 20 intersection, and the road leading up to Walmart and Prosperity Ridge.
After spending some time in reflection on last year’s frustrated dealing with Mayor Kerry Cook and manager of engineering ser-
vices Geoff Goodall, it occurred to me if the City of Williams Lake was interested in doing what is best for all concerned that the city mayor and council would put out a questionnaire asking city resi-dents a couple of very basic ques-tions.
1. Are you happy with the pres-ent intersection from Highway 20 to Hodgson Road? Yes or no.
2. Do you wish the City of Wil-liams Lake would start rebuilding present intersections and a road to Prosperity Ridge before an alter-
nate route into and out of Prosper-ity Ridge is built? Yes or no.
For the safety of residents and businesses on South Lakeside Drive, also for more cost-effective construction with minimal traffic interference.
I do not wish the city to spend more money on South Lake-side Drive until the road out of Prosperity Ridge, as originally planned, is built.

Portable classrooms are an unfit learning environment
Editor: School boards in numerous
school districts in B.C. are striv-ing to get rid of portable class-rooms and get students into real classrooms in school buildings.
At the meeting of the School District 27 trustees on Tuesday, Jan. 15 the board heard a presen-tation about the closure of fringe schools (Kwaleen elementary, Glendale elementary and Wild-wood elementary) from the sec-retary treasurer.
She said: “We can put two por-tables at Nesika (elementary),
drop two into Chilcotin Road (el-ementary).
“And we can put two at Cata-line (elementary) if we can find the space on the school grounds.
“Space for students will be tight at Chilcotin Road but I think we can do it.”
In other words, six new por-tables.
The trustees stared into their laptop screens or nodded their heads.
Portable classrooms are not a good learning environment.
They are also expensive to heat and expensive to maintain.
If the school board goes ahead with the school closures, parents need to be concerned about their children winding up in portables.
They need to protest in the strongest possible terms that this is an unacceptable solution to the board’s financial problem.
It must not be solved at the ex-pense of a reasonable learning environment for some children.
This is an adult problem. Don’t make children pay the
price.

B.C. LOTTERY LICENCE NUMBER 50756
The Williams Lake Thunder se-nior girls’ basketball team drove through all challengers on the week-end, bringing home the Clarence Fulton Classic championship from Vernon.
The Thunder edged the Princess Margaret Mustangs 58-53 Saturday night in the final to take the title.
Ana Lomavatu, Latasha Diaz, Montana Reid and Dakota Bailey were the team’s top scorers. Reid also hauled down the most re-bounds.
Thunder coach Raj Lalli said it was a tough battle, but added the girls’ late free throw shooting proved to be the difference maker.
“During the first quarter both teams struggled to score,” Lalli said. “It was about 7-5 after the first quar-ter. By half we’d taken the lead 25-21, but they took the lead from us
with about four minutes to go.”Lomavatu then hit the Thunder’s
only three-pointer of the weekend to put her team back on top with time winding down.
“From there it became more of a free throw game where we made three out of our five to win by five,” Lalli said.
The Thunder began its tourna-ment with a 61-39 win over Trail’s J.L. Crowe Hawks, before beating the host Clarence Fulton, 52-47, to advance to Saturday night’s final.
Lomavatu, Reid and Diaz were the team’s top scorers in both games.
“This was probably the best tour-nament that this team of girls I’ve been coaching the past three years has had,” Lalli said. “They were mentally strong, emotionally strong, and they had no major lapses in de-fence or offence.
“Even when we struggled in the first quarter in the final there were still a lot of opportunities — it just
seemed like there was a lid on the basket but they kept pushing.”
Following the tournament Lo-mavatu was awarded most valuable player, while Diaz was named first team all-star.
Coming up for the Thunder and the Columneetza Cougars senior girls basketball team is a tourna-ment, this weekend, at Correlieu Secondary School.

Groundwater 1-3 to start Scotties
Williams Lake has representation at the B.C. Scotties Tourna-ment of Hearts provin-cial curling champion-ship.
Simone Ground-water (skip), Laura Ball (third), Surrey’s Mallory Sandhu (sec-ond) and Cindy Brady (lead) qualified after successfully compet-ing in the second of three women’s quali-fication events at the North Shore Winter Club in North Vancou-ver Nov. 30 to Dec. 2.
The team is now in the midst of the com-petition — which be-gan Jan. 14 and wraps up Jan. 20 at the Clo-verdale Curling Club.
Groundwater’s rink began play Monday, dropping a heartbreak-ing 8-7 loss — giving up one in the final end — to New Westmin-ster’s Kirsten Fox rink.
Groundwater’s sec-ond match was against Juan de Fuca’s Sarah Wark rink. The Wil-liams Lake rink played right alongside Wark for the first seven ends, however, gave up five in the eighth to
drop the draw.Tuesday, Ground-
water’s rink bounced back with an impres-sive 10-5 win over Vernon’s Roberta Kuhn rink. Groundwa-ter stuck three in the first and four in the seventh to walk away with its first win of the competition.
Later, Groundwa-ter’s rink fell to New Westminster’s Lori Olsen rink, 7-5, in a tightly contested draw. Olsen scored three in the third, but Ground-water answered back with two of her own in the sixth, before Ol-
sen, again, sat two in the seventh to take the victory.
The Williams Lake rink, coming into Wednesday, was scheduled to meet tournament favourite Kelly Scott of Kelow-na, before playing four more draws follow-ing that to wrap up its round-robin Friday.

Bantam t-wolves take silver in KamloopsThe Williams Lake
Bantam Tier 2 Timber-wolves skated away from a 10-team tourna-ment in Kamloops on the weekend as silver medal-ists.
The team played two games in round robin play Friday, winning both. The first was a 3-0 shutout over Semiah-moo, followed by a 6-1 bashing of Kelowna. In game one Griffen Out-house posted the shutout for the T-wolves.
Saturday, Williams Lake continued its win-ning ways beating West-side — one of the top ranked teams in the prov-
ince — 3-2. In game two Saturday Williams Lake skated to a 3-1 win over Penticton, capping off its round robin with a per-fect 4-0 record.
Sunday, Williams Lake faced Kamloops in the semi-final, winning 5-1 to advance to the final to meet Westside once again.
This was the third tournament this year that Williams Lake met West-side in a final. Williams Lake lost the first two in close games — the first in overtime, and the sec-ond by a lone goal.
Williams Lake jumped out to an early 2-0 lead,
but penalty trouble and some bad luck allowed Westside to score two quick goals to claw back into the contest. A debat-able goal further added to the T-wolves’ frustration, allowing Westside to in-crease its lead to 4-2.
Williams Lake would answer back to make it 4-3, but couldn’t put the equalizer past the West-side netminder.
The team said despite the loss they played ex-ceptional hockey and put together a strong team ef-fort. They added they’re very much looking for-ward to meeting West-side again.

Together We Can forum held in Williams Lake
Organizations supporting chil-dren and families at risk attended a two-day forum this week in Wil-liams Lake.
Hosted by Knucwentwecw So-ciety of Williams Lake at the Gi-braltar Room, the Together We Can forum was an opportunity for orga-nizations in the region to network.
The back wall was lined with ta-bles and displays from each organi-zation and throughout the two days, spokespersons from each organiza-tion took a turn at the microphone.
Sheila Dick, health administra-tor for the Canim Lake Band, said one of the challenges for her staff is the fact that people “have the right to live at risk.” People might be brought to the hospital, but in a day or two return home and are back to some of the same habits.
“As a staff all we can do is walk this road together and be a really good strong unit and do the best that we can,” Dick said. “I do ad-mire anyone who works in that situation.”
Dick has noticed over the years that it takes time for people to trust workers in the community because they don’t know if that person is going to stay or not.
“We’ve had a nurse in our com-munity for 10 years now and we’re very proud of that,” she said.
Canim Lake also has a Circle of Life HIV-AIDS support group that’s existed for more than 15 years.
“Our people will come home HIV-AIDS infected and if we don’t do something about their situation they could share that infection with others in the community,” Dick said. “It could become an epidem-ic.”
Volunteers who are part of the group, many of them youth, meet once a month in the community and hold intervention workshops.
“They attend conferences and have been well-trained,” Dick said. “Every few years we have to recruit new volunteers and every year we have an AIDS walk and candle-light ceremony for those people who have passed away because of AIDS.”
RCMP Cst. Kevin Neufeld and Cst. Becky Munro are with First Nations Community Policing.
“There is a tripartite agreement between the federal government, provincial government and the First Nations bands that allows for mem-bers to work with the communities on reserves,” Neufeld explained.
In Williams Lake there are four First Nations policing liaisons working in the city and at Soda Creek, Sugar Cane, Alkali Lake and Canoe Creek. Munro is one of three liaisons stationed in Alexis
Creek.A contract is signed between the
three parties with responsibilities on all sides.
“The band is responsible to provide a community consultive group that comes up with a list of expectations for the First Nations policing section to use as a general guideline,” Neufeld said.
Examples might include youth engagement, elder engagement, and community engagement, such as attending potlucks.
Sometimes activities will be driven by a police officer’s own in-terests. For Neufeld it’s fast pitch.
“We have a fast pitch team made up of young men from Sugar Cane, Soda Creek, Dog Creek and Canim Lake and we play at 100 Mile House,” he said. “That interaction with everyone on the ball team is amazing. It lets them see us in a different light, that we are normal people outside the uniform.”
Neufeld also enjoys interacting with young students at the Little Chief primary school at Sugar Cane.
“I’m able to have beneficial talks about stranger safety,” he said, adding it’s about being proactive, which means often the police are encouraging community members to access the organizations attend-ing the forum.
Obviously the police have en-forcement responsibilities as well, however, the healing circle restor-ative justice program is one aspect of his job Neufeld finds rewarding.
“For the most part these young kids are good kids that have made a mistake and are willing to take re-sponsibility for what they’ve done wrong,” he explained. “Through volunteers we’re able to arrange a circle where victims are involved,
an elder is involved, and everyone sits down to talk about what’s hap-pened.”
After the discussion the offender receives some sanctions.
“Maybe they will chop wood, help at the rink, or a ball field. It brings some responsibilities to that youth and gives them a sense of pride giving back to their commu-nity,” Neufeld said. It’s a route they try to take more and more, although it doesn’t always work.
“If a person is a chronic offend-er, the judge won’t lean to go that route,” Neufeld added.
Brenda Kennedy, New Begin-nings Program manager at Three Corners Health said her organiza-tion serves Sugar Cane, Soda Creek and Canoe Creek, and people from those communities living in Wil-liams Lake.
They work very closely with pregnant women, meeting with them twice a month up until the baby is six months old. The moms meet with a dietician, they receive food boxes, learn crafts, and attend a luncheon with other pregnant moms.
“An elder also comes in to sup-port the moms, we have a home visiting program, and we try to pro-vide transportation,” Kennedy said.
When a baby is born, the staff meets with the mom and plans the type of baby celebration she is comfortable with.
Each woman is presented with a blanket made by staff and people in the community.
“A lot of well-wishing goes into the making of the blanket,” Ken-nedy added.
Focusing on early attachment is also a priority, and if staff notices a baby is not reaching certain mile-stones, they will put the mom in
contact with the Child Develop-ment Centre.
There’s also a strong focus on Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) prevention with education beginning as early as possible.
“It takes a lot for a birth mom or a grandma to come forward,” Kenne-dy said. “We walk with our moms and grandmas and help them to get that little child assessed because when they go to school it’s tough and is not a good experience.”
If a child gets assessed, then a “road map” outlining both strengths and areas where they will have dif-ficulty can be developed.
A young girl was not going to graduate, received a late FASD di-agnosis, but eventually graduated.
“She has a driver’s license and is doing so well because we figured out what her strengths were and did not focus on what she couldn’t do well,” Kennedy said, adding the most powerful thing was to see her in her grad dress.
Lynn Dunford has been with Three Corners Health for 13 years and said her focus is to have fun with the preventative part of addic-tions programming.
During the National Addic-tions Awareness Week campaign they organized 121 youth together for the Amazing Race where they broke them up in teams and sent them out to various resources in the community.
“We hoped they would see for themselves that these kinds of sup-ports are out there and if the need ever arose they would feel more comfortable getting in touch with those services,” Dunford said.
A popular event is the So You Hate Christmas campaign because there are many people who struggle at Christmas time.
“We just want to make them aware of all the resources that are available to help them get through that time of year,” she said.

Canim Lake health administrator Sheila Dick talks about her community.
And now for some-thing simple, abso-lutely crowd pleas-ing. That is the film presented by the Wil-liams Lake Film Club next Tuesday, Jan. 22, at the Gibraltar Room, 7 p.m. Back doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the Gibraltar Room is located in the Cariboo Memorial Complex by Boitanio Park.
The Intouchables has broken box office records in its native France and across Eu-rope.
The film is the of-ficial entry of France to the Best Foreign Language Film at the 85th Academy Awards 2013 and is one of the selected five contend-ers. Because it is such fun to watch.
However, that does not mean it is a piece of fluff.
The film does touch on serious subjects like immigration, poverty, and severe physical disability. But it does this in such a manner that you are thoroughly entertained all the way through the story.
And the story is this: newcomer Omar Sy plays Driss, just out of jail and trying to collect welfare. But first he has to prove that he is trying to get a job.
So he casually ap-plies as caregiver to a wealthy quadriplegic,
Philippe. To his surprise and
indignation he actu-ally does get the job, on a try-out basis. The jailbird and the millionaire click, and Driss brings some new things into Phillipe’s life. Like taking him on fast rides around town, introducing him to marijuana, cracking quadriplegic jokes, and so much more.
Even more amaz-ing is that this film is based on a true sto-ry. Philippe, played by Francois Cluzet, was the CEO of the
well-known Cham-pagne Vineyard Pom-mery. His real name is Philippe Pozzo di Borgo.
After his horrible accident he needed a caretaker around the clock and he chose 21-year old Algerian Abdel Yasmin Sellou, who just got out of jail. He actually ended up working for Phil-lippe for 10 years and they developed a deep friendship.
They travelled to-gether many, many times and ended up living not too far from
each other; Philippe with his second wife and two daughters in Morocco and Sellou with his wife and three children in Al-giers.
The real Philippe and Sellou are intro-duced at the end of the film.
The film is based on the autobiography of Pozzo di Borgo, which was published in France in 2001 ti-tled Le second souffle (The second Breath).
One of Pozzo di Borgo’s conditions when making this film was that five per-cent of the proceeds shall be donated to his foundation for the handicapped, called Simon von Cyrene. So far the foundation has received about one
million Euros.And this means
that the proceeds of our screening next Tuesday, Jan. 22, will benefit two causes, mainly the LDA, the Williams Lake Chap-
ter of the Associa-tion for Students with Learning Disabilities, and the Foundation for the Handicapped.
Admission is $9 regular, $8 for Film Club members, and
$6 for seniors (65+) and students, HS and TRU.
Everyone is wel-come to joins us to watch a wonderfully “happy” film, The In-touchables.

Flyover slide show at the library Friday
Hospital auxiliary purchases ceiling lift for hospital
The Cariboo Memo-rial Hospital Auxiliary has purchased a special ceiling lift for Cariboo Memorial Hospital at a cost of $7,797.
The lift moves on a
boom with a sling below for the patient.
This piece of equip-ment is very safe for the patient and nurses. Sec-ond floor manager Sara Evans, says the goal of the hospital is to have one lift over every bed.
The hospital auxiliary
raised funds for the lift by running the hospital gift shop from 1 to 4 p.m. five days a week, and by sponsoring bake sales, raffles and silent auctions.
The auxiliary spon-sored a Christmas raffle that was very success-
ful. First prize of a ce-ramic-tiled coffee table was won by Marlene Davis of Williams Lake.
Second prize of a beautiful hand-made quilt donated by quilter Elaine Watt was won by Stephanie Brisco of Big Lake.
Third prize of a huge gift basket was won by Marnie Chamberlain of Williams Lake.
The Cariboo Regional District’s Williams Lake Branch Library will host an evening with local author Sage Birchwater and photographer Chris Harris on Friday, Jan. 18 at 7 p.m.
The event will focus on their most recent collaboration, Flyover: British Columbia’s Cari-boo Chilcotin Coast: an aviation legacy.
“This is a chance for anyone who may have missed the slide show book launch in October to come and see some amazing photographs and hear some interest-ing stories,” says Birch-water.
The aviation history of the Cariboo Chilco-
tin is rich and colourful with float planes com-ing first, followed by wheeled planes and he-licopters.
Harris and Birchwa-ter take you on an aerial journey, told visually through Harris’ photos and Birchwater’s story-telling to draw on the memories and experi-ences of both bush-pilot pioneers.
The evening will include a slideshow presentation with com-mentary by Harris and Birchwater, and time for questions and answers.
You can also expect to hear about upcom-ing works and projects. Books will be available for purchase at the event.

Depression—the way out comes to Williams Lake
Rita Corbett is an in-structor at a unique work-shop coming to Williams Lake this month: one that deals with something that can change who you are, how to feel and how you relate to important persons in your life.
The workshop is De-pression—the way out, described by Corbett as “a mental health educa-tion program with scien-tific credence for every-thing in it.”
The workshop starts on Jan. 28 and goes through March 18, with participants meeting for eight Monday nights and then doing work on their own for 12 further weeks with support and backup.
“The guy who origi-nated this workshop, in-ternist Dr. Neil Nedley, divided it into 10 ‘hits’ or categories of things that cause depression.
“These include things like genetics, develop-mental issues, whether you were raised by both of your biological par-ents, unresolved or re-cent grief, nutrition, life-style, frontal lobe issues such as brain injuries, and addiction issues,” Corbett explained.
“You need four ‘hits’ to be categorized as de-pressed. What we do in the workshop is take the ones we can modify and get rid of them. Everyone has some of these things, but if we can modify the ones we can change, we lessen the number of hits until we’re not de-pressed.”
She explained that they get doctor referrals for the workshop, and added that people come to the workshop because it works. “People are sick of side effects and failure and they don’t know what else to do.
“Anyone can take the workshop, and literally anyone will benefit from it, even the teacher,” she continued. “It’s a mental health education course where you learn to get the most from your brain. Whether you’re suffering from depression, or are a caretaker or loved one, you can benefit.”
Depression is not a bad attitude, according to Corbett. “Attitude makes a difference, but they’ve discovered that before depressive symptoms start, brain scans show
that there is reduced cir-culation and function in the frontal lobes,” she noted.
“One of the first things we do is to increase cir-culation in the frontal lobes, and sometimes that all it takes for peo-ple. Often just one or two things prove to be so helpful. The hippo-campus changes 20 per cent in one year, so if we change our thinking, we can become different people over time.”
The workshop covers everything from confi-dential testing to find out if you’re anxious or de-pressed, to offering food samples that can improve brain health, as well as recognizing cognitive errors, dealing with ad-diction and living above loss.
“I would say that some of the main misconcep-tions about depression are that it’s only an at-titude and that it only occurs in middle-aged people,” she added.
“The biggest mis-conception is that once people are on antidepres-sants they’re on them for life.”
She explained that, on a national level, about half the people who at-tend Dr. Nedley’s classes have attempted suicide. These are people truly looking for answers,” she said. “Depression is isolating. People lose courage and they can’t make decisions.”
“What helps people overcome the barrier of shame that can come along with depression is offering genuine change and scientific under-standing of what de-pression actually is, ac-cording to Corbett. She added that people learn not to sit in the ‘blame chair’ telling themselves they’re not doing things right.
“Depression is tra-ditionally treated with medications and talk therapy, but it’s known now that there is only one kind of talk therapy that’s effective. We teach people to do it them-selves. We don’t use group therapy, but we make sure people know how to do it themselves,” she said. “What makes your brain healthy makes the rest of you healthy, too. These treatments are non-medical—healthy things that work for the whole body.”
She said that people whose lives are not work-ing come to this work-shop and they go home saying, ‘I can fix this myself.’ Participants also come back to this course anytime, anywhere in the world for a tune-up.
“I love handing peo-ple who are depressed a quick success that actual-ly works and can be per-manent. Our completion rate for this program is 92 per cent,” she stated. “We do not take anyone off medications or ‘sub’ ourselves in for any-thing. A typical course of events is that a few weeks after the course, people are feeling bet-ter and they go to their doctor and say, ‘I’m feel-ing better and don’t like the side effects of these drugs: can I cut back?’
“And they keep doing that. We hear that a lot.”
She said that she has taught many different workshops and courses in her life, but that this is her favourite. “It has a very positive impact
on social health—every-thing is better when your brains are working better.
“Here’s some feed-back we hear from peo-ple. ‘You’ve given me my life back’ and ‘I can concentrate better and I am making better deci-sions.’ People will often say, ‘I feel that my lights are back on.’”
She said the work-shops include everyone from young teens to se-niors. She also said that men may be less likely to be depressed than wom-en, that when they are depressed it’s more seri-ous—they’re much more likely to commit suicide.
“We give out a lot of information, but it comes down to a few simple principles. You get good background and you end up with workable stuff,” she said.
“Although the work-shop is not specifically geared for people with bipolar disorder, there is nothing in it that will mess anyone up.”
Positive nutrition is
one of the most impor-tant areas of understand-ing for depressed people, she said, and added that it’s a matter of tweaks: a little more of this and a little less of that.
“Dr. Nedley often says, ‘Isn’t it strange that in a time when we have so many more fun things to do than we’ve ever had before, we have more de-pression than ever?’
“I think we have far more understanding and less accountability in society; people grow up wanting to be helped and understood, but wanting less to direct their own lives.
“This workshop gives you the tools to take charge of your mental health. It often surprises people that the answers are so easy. It’s not ex-pensive,” she explained, “and the only side effect is happiness.”

Bruce Mack has an undeni-able passion for community development.
It started early on with his post-secondary education and it’s built steam ever since.
Bruce is now the president of the Cariboo Chilcotin Part-ners for Literacy and has made it his, and the society’s mis-sion, to help promote aware-ness on literacy issues in the community.
Bruce, his wife Lil, their two children and four grand-children, now all share a pas-sion for Williams Lake and the Cariboo.
“We never really knew it [Williams Lake],” Bruce said. “We moved here in January of 1980 from Kitimat. I had a job — we’d just come back from West Africa — working as the district planner with First Na-tions in the area. We thought we’d give it a try for a couple years and that was 33 years ago.”
Bruce earned a degree in political science. Lil’s degree was in English and library sci-ence.
Following graduation they went with CUSO (Canadian University Service Overseas) to live in Ghana, Africa.
“We wanted to travel, and CUSO sounded like a good op-tion,” he said. “It really worked out well and we really enjoyed it. And, in a lot of ways, it re-ally shaped our careers and where we’ve been since.”
What was originally sup-posed to be just two years turned into six.
“The first time we were in Ghana I did some adult edu-cation classes,” he said. “I was 21 at the time and one of the teachers asked if I’d help out with English. These were adults who just wanted to be able to read the newspaper and
I was completely blown away. “In Canada you kind of think
there’s a relationship between literacy, education and intelli-gence. Over there you realize there’s no relationship at all, and there really isn’t here, ei-ther.
“A person can be incredibly intelligent and have just not had the opportunity, so that re-ally opened up my eyes to that disconnect and realizing there are people who’ve just never had that opportunity and it’s much the same here, working with First Nations, and meet-ing people with all sorts of knowledge and wisdom who just don’t have those literacy skills.”
Bruce said when they re-turned from Africa and moved
to Williams Lake, they imme-diately fell in love with the area. Lil worked as the librar-ian at the Williams Lake Li-brary and Bruce, following the completion of his masters in community development plan-ning, had his job as a district planner.
“We both really enjoyed our work,” he said. “I’ve worked with the bands, with the First Nations, and really enjoyed that. It’s been really reward-ing. It’s good people trying to do good things and it was re-ally nice to be involved.”
When he retired in 2003 he took the position as president of the CCPL — a group Lil had helped spearhead during the mid to late 90s.
“It’s all kind of interrelated,”
he said. “My passion is com-munity development and edu-cation is a huge part of that, so I’ve been involved with the Social Planning Council, Communities that Care and the school board, and literacy is kind of a natural extension of that.”
Bruce said CPPL’s mandate and goals haven’t changed over the years, however, add-ed they’re now able to offer a wider variety of programs.
“At the start the big focus was just on the awareness,” he said.
“That’s come a huge way. Just the general recognition in society, in general, and in the community in particular, to recognize the importance of literacy and how we can help
support that.”The CCPL now offers pro-
grams such as Partner Assisted Learning, Books for Babies, financial literacy, computer literacy, workplace literacy, a Bright Red Bookshelf program and more.
He said through it all, he hopes it’s helped make a dif-ference in the community and in individual peoples’ lives.
“You feel you can be in-volved and help make a dif-ference, and that’s one of the things I like here,” he said. “And there’s been a huge change. Most of the real change is individual’s lives. Williams Lake is probably one of the few, maybe the only city, that has literacy as one of the goals in its official community plan.
“If you’re in Vancouver what do you do? That’s the way it is and you kind of accept it. Whereas, here, I think you can get actively involved and make a difference.”
He added the family has al-ways been actively involved in sports and Williams Lake of-fered a great place to do that.
“There really isn’t anything you can’t do so it’s been really good that way,” he said. “It was a great place to raise the kids.”
Next week Thursday’s Tri-bune will be its Reach-A-Reader edition, worked on in conjunction with the CCPL featuring stories and photos about literacy.
“Reach-A-Reader is one of our big events of the year,” he said, noting it used to be one of its biggest fundraisers until the province stopped matching the funding it received.
“It’s still our biggest public awareness event and a great promotional tool.”
Every copy sold of Thurs-day’s Tribune by CCPL vo-lutneers will go directly to the CCPL to help with its goals.

It is with great sadness that the family announces the death of Jill McLennan Jennings, at the age of 55 years, after a courageous battle with breast cancer. Jill died peacefully on December 15, 2012 at her home in Lac La Hache, BC surrounded by her loving family.Jill was born on June 10, 1957 in Elk Lake, ON to John and Elaine McLennan. She was the eldest of their four children and always took care of her younger siblings. Not surprisingly, she became a nurse. Jill was knowledgeable and always supportive of her co-workers. Her bright smile, positive outlook and caring heart, were a comfort to the patients that she came in contact with during her career.Jill will be lovingly remembered by her daughter Lauren, twin sons Kent and Scott, by her parents John and Elaine, her sisters Lorri Spaans (son Kyle and partner Brent Field), Patti Lucas (daughters Kristen, Alicia and husband Brian) and her brother Chris McLennon (sons Rylend, Brodan and Connor). Jill will be sadly missed by her partner Pete Neuner and his family of British Columbia (his son Clayton, daughter-in-law Jillian and grandson Easton, his daughter Tanya, grandson Braeden and twin granddaughters Mackenzie and Kaia). She was a cherished niece of Mickey and Joanne Major and Claude and Bertha Pellerin. In addition, she will be missed by many cousins, aunts and uncles and will be fondly remembered by Loretta Jennings and her family.Jill had many friends that she met while living in Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia that will miss her dearly. These include her nursing friends from college, nursing friends and colleagues in BC and Alberta, neighbours and people she met and worked with in the communities of High Prairie, AB, Fort Frances & Kenora, ON and Williams Lake & Lac La Hache, BC.Jill will also be missed by her Yellow Lab, Kobe and her cat Buster. She dearly loved all the animals that she and Pete raised on their “ranch” in Lac La Hache. She particularly loved their cow “Forrest”, her cat Gizmo, her chickens, the horses and many other animals that they often rescued.The family would like to gratefully acknowledge all the flowers, visits, donations, masses, prayers, food, phone calls and cards that were given to us by family, friends and neighbours to comfort us during this difficult time. Your kindness and generosity was greatly appreciated.The funeral arrangements, which were handled by LaPrairie’s Alternative Funeral Services of Williams Lake, took place on December 20, 2012.Donations to the SPCA, or the BC Cancer Foundation, bccancerfoundation.com, will be gratefully acknowledged by the family.
Jill’s family will hold a celebration to honour her life in the spring of 2013 in Ontario.
