Kimberley RCMP officer receives awardRCMP

Each year police officers from around the province are recognized for their contribution to road safety by the Alexa Middelaer Foundation.

The Alexa’s Team is a program that recognizes RCMP and Municipal po-lice officers that make an extraordinary contribution in reducing the number of alcohol and drug affected drivers on the roads of our communities.

Cst. Gord Skulnec of the Kimberley RCMP detachment was one of the offi-cers who received the recognition by removing 24 impaired drivers from our roads in 2014.

Seven years ago four-year-old Alexa Middelaer was killed by an alcohol-im-paired driver.

“As a family, we have been pleased to recognize our police officers, these unsung heroes who have made a dif-ference each and every day. It has been an honour to be immersed in the Al-exa’s Team events, and collaborate and plan with the many partners for public safety in our province,” said Laurel Middelaer, Alexa’s Mother and Road Safety Advocate.

Funding to help seniors program in Columbia ValleyFor the townsman

C R A N B R O O K – Seven communities in the Columbia Valley area have joined the Better at Home program thanks to $60,000 in funding from the B.C. government.

The Columbia Valley is one of six new rural and remote areas receiv-ing funding. The Better

at Home program aims to be ready to assist cli-ents this summer in In-vermere, Windermere, Spillimacheen, Edgewa-ter, Radium, Panorama and Canal Flats.

This funding is part of a $4 million contribu-tion from the B.C. gov-ernment and is distrib-uted through United Way of the Lower Main-

land. The funding will help provide non-medi-cal support to help se-niors remain indepen-dent in their homes for as long as possible. Pro-gram services can vary between communities, but include friendly vis-iting, light yard work, minor home repairs, grocery shopping, light housekeeping and

transportation to ap-pointments.

“Life is better in the comfort of your own home,” Kootenay East MLA Bill Bennett said. “By providing simple, non-medical support services such as trans-portation to appoint-ments and friendly vis-its, the Better at Home program will help se-

niors in our communi-ties continue to live in-dependently.”

This Better at Home pilot project recognizes that seniors’ indepen-dence in rural and re-mote communities can be affected by factors such as geographic iso-lation, smaller popula-tion density and less in-frastructure develop-

ment.All seniors living in a

Better at Home commu-nity can apply for ser-vices. The Better at Home service provider will assist the applicant in deciding which ser-vices are right for their circumstances.

To date, the B.C. gov-ernment has provided $26 million in funding to enhance and support the operations of the Better at Home pro-gram.

For the townsman

Fifteen Adapted Technology Work Skills students from Mount Baker Second-ary School built 24 canisters which will located throughout the city of Cranbrook for cigarette butt collection during the Tamarack Centre’s Butt Out, Butt In cam-paign.

Under the direction of teacher Paul Knipe along with 8 educational assistants, the students learned how to create caps for the cylinder, weld on latches and paint the holders for the canisters.

The students work on a community project each semester to help them under-stand the importance of volunteering and giving back to the community at large.  This project not only raises their aware-ness about cigarette butt waste but it al-lows them to develop important skills which they can use when they leave school and enter the work world.

  Tamarack Centre is launching a city-wide cigarette waste clean-up effort to help keep the butts from entering into the ground and in waterways and also to keep wildlife from ingesting harmful chemicals and waste products. Tamarack is asking smokers to dispose of their butt in the can-isters in order to keep them off the ground.

The cylinders are located throughout Cranbrook and larger receptacles will be located on the Tamarack Centre property.  The Centre hopes to collect 250 lbs. of cig-arette waste by the end of fall. The butts will be sent to a company in Ontario, Ter-raCycle that will recycle them into pallets and other items such as park benches and flower pots.

Home Hardware generously donated the materials to the Adapted Technology Work Skills class so that they could make the canisters.

tre vor Cr awleyDistracted driving

has risen to become just as dangerous as driving while impaired, and now the province is looking at increasing driving penalties for the offence.

The province is doing a public consulta-tion to see if the current penalty—a $167 fine and three penalty points—are enough to deter the behaviour.

The consultation asks questions such as:

• Should drivers caught texting face greater sanctions than those talking on a hand-held device?

• Should new drivers or repeat offenders face greater penalties?

• Should sanctions such as prohibitions and vehicle impound-ments be considered?

Under the definition of using of an electronic device, there is a com-plete ban on a driver who is holding, operat-ing, communicating, or watching the screen of a hand-held electronic communication device, including devices that process or compute data.

When distracted driving legislation was

first introduced five years ago, there was only the $167 fine, with the addition of penalty points made last fall.

Penalties vary from province to province.

In Nova Scotia, the maximum fine amount is $579, while Ontario’s is $500. Ontario has re-cently passed legisla-tion to change the max-imum fine amount to $1,000.

“This is a chance for British Columbians to tell us their thoughts on

distracted driving sanctions and how they would stop this danger-ous behaviour. We’ve heard the calls that peo-ple want more protec-tion from distracted drivers and we agree there’s more work to be done,” said Suzanne Anton, the B.C. Attor-ney General and Minis-ter of Justice.

“We took a first step and increased the pen-alties last fall and now we’re looking at possi-ble changes to the legis-lation, including more severe penalties. We want to ensure these are set at a level that is fair and effectively changes behaviour. Add your voice and help make B.C.’s roads the safest in

North America by 2020.” In 2014, police is-

sued approximately 55,100 tickets to drivers who were caught using an electronic device be-hind the wheel while 53,000 were issued in 2013.

An estimated 9,500 drivers in B.C. are using a hand-held electronic device at any given time, and 40 per cent of them are texting or emailing while driving. Texting or using a smartphone while driv-ing is more distracting than talking on one - the crash risk is 23 times higher for drivers who text.

“We know some drivers still aren’t get-ting the message that no call or text is worth risk-ing your life,” said Steve Crombie, ICBC vice president of corporate and stakeholder gover-nance.

“Engaging with driv-ers across B.C. is an important step in ad-dressing this serious issue and making our roads safer for every-one.”

JEFF NAGELBlack Press

The province will require industry to pay for a new or-ganization to quickly deploy trained and equipped re-sponders to deal with a spill of oil or any other hazardous substance on land.

New legislation will come next spring and the new Pre-paredness and Response Or-ganization (PRO) is to be in place by 2017 to counter a variety of land-based spills, including train derailments, tanker truck crashes and pipeline failures that release petroleum or other chemi-cals.

Environment Minister Mary Polak predicted it will significantly improve B.C.’s readiness to coordinate and, if necessary, lead the re-sponse to a spill on land with-out delays to determine who is responsible.

Companies will have to join the new response organi-zation if the risk they pose –  based on the volume and toxicity of the cargo they ship –  exceeds a certain risk threshold that is yet to be de-termined.

The spiller will remain re-sponsible for response and cleanup costs, but if its efforts are failing the province would

be able to call the PRO in to take over.

Polak likened the new agency’s role to that of the Western Canada Marine Re-sponse Corp., the non-profit industry-funded group that responds to marine spills.

“That’s the kind of idea that we are looking at so you have one body that can be contacted, can be immediate-ly put into place, taking action even before we’ve identified who’s responsible for a spill,”

she said.Polak said the aim is to fill

gaps in readiness, not to du-plicate existing industry ef-forts.

While the federal govern-ment has jurisdiction over problems along a pipeline right-of-way, Polak said a spill could cause environmental damage over a wider area.

“If one imagines the dam-age that a pipeline spill could potentially do, much of that would then be potentially our

responsibility outside of that pipeline right of way.”

First Nations and other local communities are ex-pected to play significant roles in the new system.

The B.C. SPCA is also in-volved in the planning work to ensure international best practices in caring for oiled animals, said chief scientific officer Dr. Sara Dubois.

The federal government has jurisdiction over spills at sea.

But the province says the new land-based spill re-sponse system will also be ready to pitch in on a marine spill by helping coordinate the response and quickly minimizing shoreline im-pacts, if necessary.

Polak said a lack of good coordination between agen-cies was one of the problems that arose in the Marathassa fuel oil spill in English Bay in April, and reiterated the need for Ottawa to bolster marine response preparedness.

“What we have now is out-dated,” she said. “The prov-ince is not prepared for a major spill.”

Premier Christy Clark had previously said if Ottawa can’t do better on marine response it should relinquish authority to B.C.

Dynamiter Tyson Kling-spohn is on the move once again.

Monday night, the Springfield Express of the Western States Hockey League (Ameri-can Tier II Junior) an-nounced via Facebook that the 18-year-old for-ward had signed with the club ahead of the 2015-16 season.

“We are very eager to see how much of an im-pact Tyson will make on our team this season,” said Jeremy Law, head coach of the Express, in the team release. “He is a pure goal-scorer and has unbelievable vision on the ice and reads the game better than most.

“I have no doubt he will be a top producer in our league and an intri-cate piece to our puzzle in a quest for the Thorne Cup.”

Klingspohn, a native of Penticton, spent more than two seasons with the Nitros (2012-13 to 2014-15), amassing 50 goals and 90 points in 121 games with the club before being dealt to the Summerland Steam in the deal that brought forward Braden Saretsky to Kimberley on Nov. 28.

After being traded closer to home, Kling-spohn managed three goals and 14 points in 28 games with the Steam.

The Springfield Ex-press, located in Mis-souri, play in the 28-team WSHL, which moved from Tier III play

(Junior ‘B’ equivalent) to Tier II (June ‘A’ equiv-alent) on June 1, 2015.

The WSHL was es-tablished in 1994.

KIJHL Notes: The Castlegar Rebels have traded F Konnor Mad-sen (1996) to the Kirk-land Lake Gold Miners of the Northern Ontario Junior Hockey League. In his first season with the Rebels, Madsen tal-lied 11 goals and 20 points in 49 games…The Creston Valley Thunder Cats have signed G Jason Mailhiot (1998). The na-tive of Trail spent the past two seasons with the Kootenay Ice of the B.C. Major Midget Hock-ey League, compiling a record of 5-22-5. He also found his way into a handful of KIJHL games as an AP with the Nelson Leafs over the past two seasons, including seven playoff games...

forward Ben Maxwell is headed for Russia.

Maxwell, who suited up for the Ice from 2003-04 through 2007-08, has signed with HC Sochi of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) accord-ing to a press release is-sued by the team.

After being chosen with the second-overall pick at the 2003 WHL Bantam Draft by the Kootenay Ice, the native of North Vancouver played in 210 career WHL games, all with the Ice, amassing 64 goals and 159 points along the way.

He went on to be drafted by the Montreal Canadiens in the sec-ond round (49th overall) of the 2006 NHL Entry Draft.

Maxwell skated in 47 career NHL games, bouncing from Montre-al to the Atlanta Thrash-ers/Winnipeg Jets be-

fore joining the Ana-heim Ducks.

His last season in North American came during the 2012-13 cam-paign when he played in 74 games with the AHL’s St. John’s IceCaps, an af-filiate of the Jets.

During the 2014-15 season, Maxwell began the campaign with HC Ugra of the Kontinental Hockey League before being dealt to Karpat of the Finnish Elite League.

HC Sochi joined the KHL as an expansion team prior to the 2014-15 season before finish-ing fifth in the sev-en-team Tarasov Divi-sion (23-23-5).

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You might seem to drift from one topic to another. Reining in your imagination requires a lot of self-discipline. Take a walk and relax in a favorite setting. A situation where you must be totally present might develop later in the day. Tonight: Full of fun and adventure. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) A friend plays a major role in what occurs right now. Take some time with this person if you can. A conflict might occur later in the day. Could this sim-ply be a misunderstanding? Or is it a power play? Tonight: Have a long-overdue conversation, and avoid making judgments. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You will want to try a differ-ent approach to a problem. A superior has a different idea about what will work. Let this person have his or her way and see what happens. A financial issue could arise from out of nowhere. Tonight: Don’t react to someone’s negativity.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You’ll want to touch base with someone at a distance. The conversation that happens could surprise you. You might want to rethink a judgment you have made. Understand what is going on. A power play needs to be avoided! Tonight: Whatever suits your fancy. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You could be coerced into tak-ing some time off today. Taking a break from the here and now is likely to refresh and energize you. Give it a shot! You also will need some downtime, as you have had many demands placed on you. Tonight: Try a vanishing act. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Friends surround you. Without intending to, you could get trigger someone’s temper. You’ll need to be careful with this per-son’s feelings. A meeting will be important. You don’t need to add any comments -- just listen to what is being shared. Tonight: Where the fun is. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You might want to ask more

questions and be more aware of where a superior is coming from before blurting out your im-pressions. Your actions might be refreshing yet also confusing to a friend. If you see a power play developing, don’t get involved! Tonight: On center stage. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Honor a change that is happen-ing. You’ll want to head in a dif-ferent direction, but a conver-sation you’re involved in might be too lively to walk away from. Avoid getting frustrated, and don’t get involved in a power play. Tonight: Go to a blues or jazz concert. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might want to understand what a friend is offering in order to avoid a misunderstanding. Reiterate what you think you have heard. Don’t try to have someone else agree with your ideas; it won’t happen right now. Tonight: Listen to the oth-er side. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You could be a little put off by a situation, as you might not have the control you desire. Allow

yourself to more creative and follow through on that level. Be careful when dealing with key people in your life. Tonight: Try to be as easygoing as possible. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Pace yourself. Double-check your account balance. Under-stand what you can expect from someone and what he or she can expect from you. Oth-erwise, you are likely to have a misunderstanding. Try not to get involved in a power play. Tonight: Out late. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Your imagination delights a child and/or a loved one. Try to apply this gift to other areas of your life as well. You can diffuse a problem that is occurring be-tween friends. Do your best to help, but avoid creating more tension. Be spontaneous. To-night: Celebrate good times! BORN TODAY Theologian John Wesley (1703), singer/songwriter Barry Ma-nilow (1943), tennis player Ve-nus Williams (1980) ***

Dear Annie: A couple of years ago, my husband and I introduced ourselves to our new neighbor. We helped her catch her dog when it took off down the street and lent her our cellphone when her dog locked her out of the car. We waved hello and goodbye. She told us that her husband was in the service. He came home and before we knew it, he was moving out. The problem is, this woman is now coming home in the wee hours of the morning, sometimes as late as 5 a.m. She often returns slightly drunk and with some random guy. They slam the car doors and beep the horn multiple times trying to lock the car, laughing and talking loudly out in the road. They wake us up all the time. My husband asked her nicely one day to please use the lock inside the car door instead of using the key fob, which beeps. Well, now when we’re outside, she will beep the car horn for no reason. Her new, live-in boyfriend is a police officer in a neighboring town, and he likes to beep the horn late at night. What do you do with a bully cop? How do you complain to the police who usually protect their own? We worry that if we report him, then our kids will be harassed and pulled over by his friends. What can we do? -- Can’t Stand the Sight of Them Dear Can’t: This immature officer needs to be reported and you should be able to do so anonymously so he cannot be certain who registered the complaint. (We suspect plenty of neighbors are as annoyed as you are by the constant horn beeping.) And in the meantime, stop reacting. These childish people enjoy getting a rise out of you. Ignore the beeping. Wave hello when you see them. Be as friendly as you were before. Wear earplugs at night. Give them no reason to derive satisfaction from taunting you. We hope they grow up soon. Dear Annie: How do you tell someone that the way she chews gum is exasperating? She chews with her mouth open and makes horrible chomping, slurping noises. -- Feeling Annoyed Dear Annoyed: Theses types of problems are never easy. You have to be willing to tell your friend that her gum chewing is difficult to witness because of the noise and open-mouth visuals. If you can say that nicely, she may try to alter her behavior; however, it is probably ingrained and will take repeated reminders. Your other options are to avoid her when she’s chewing gum or tolerate the annoyance because you value enough other things about her to make up for it. Ann Landers once printed a little ditty on the subject, which has often been credited to Ogden Nash: The gum-chewing student And the cud-chewing cow Look quite alike, but they’re different somehow. And what is the difference? I see it all now, It’s the intelligent look On the face of the cow.

FENNESSY, Della Loreen (Nee Mallard)

October 11, 1934 - June 12, 2015

In the early morning hours of June 12, Della left this troubled world, with her family by her side, to join her mother, father, and brother Wallace.

Della was born to Charles and Gertrude Mallard,

October 11th, 1934 in Wainwright, AB. The family moved to Cranbrook in 1941, purchased the Pat Quirk Ranch, south of Fort Steele on the Fort Steele/Bull River Road. Della attended grade school in Fort Steele and rode her horse to Sunday school in Fort Steele. Later she attended Cranbrook Central School and Mount Baker High School (by school bus driver Mr. Fox of Fort Steele). Entering the working world, Della worked at the McKim School in Kimberley under Principal Mr. John Lukas. Della then moved to Trail, B.C. to attend business college, after which she worked for Cominco (C.M&S.). She then moved back to Cranbrook to work for the Motor Carrier Branch with Mr. Don Neale of the Provincial Government. Della worked for the Cranbrook School Board at Mount Baker High School, retiring in 1987 and then worked for Skip on the Cranbrook and District Key City Chronicles, typing day and night.

Della met the love of her life, Marvin Skip Fennessy at a Jaffray dance in 1956. They were married June 28, 1958, and enjoyed almost 57 years together. They adopted a son, Colin Timothy Fennessy in 1963 and a daughter in 1966.

Della is survived by her loving husband Skip, son Tim and his partner Debbie Vey, brother Don Mallard and his wife Norah and their sons, Jess & partner Darcy, Jason, wife Linea, Jordan, wife Roxann, Tim’s daughter Paulina, brother Pat Fennessy & his family, Brenda (Dan Jmaeff), Karen (Stephen Fountaine), Kalvaleen Fennessy, son Kevin (Lori) Fennessy.

The family thanks the staff in the Alzheimer Unit of the F.W. Green Home for the special care given Della. A special thank you to Dr. David Lenz for the wonderful care given Della in past years.

A Celebration of her life will take place at the Eagles Hall, Friday, June 19th, from 2:00 to 4:00 P.M. In lieu of flowers, donation in memory can be made to the Alzheimer’s Society of B.C., 300-828th Ave., West Vancouver, B.C., V5Z 9Z9.

Della’s ashes will be laid to rest in the Fort Steele Cemetery at a later date.

In times of grief, these caring professionals are here to serve and comfort your family.

Fredrick Michial Kavanagh“Freddie”

It is with great sadness that we announce Fred’s passing after a lengthy battle with COPD. He passed away comfortably at East Kootenay Regional Hospital in Cranbrook on Tuesday, June 9, 2015 at 58 years of age.

Fred was born in Kimberley to Mike & Iris Kavanagh, a pioneering family recognized for service to the Cominco mine. Fred worked many years with Crestbrook Forest Industry in Creston and Cranbrook retiring due to ill health. Fred lived most of his life in Kimberley and Cranbrook.

Fred loved hockey, fishing, camping and spending quality time with family. He had a lifetime love for hockey and was an avid Calgary Flames fan right to the end.

Fred is survived by his 4 sisters, Kathy (Claude) Inglehart of Abbotsford, BC, Pat (Fred) Inglehart of Surrey, BC, Wendy (Lloyd) Klein of Vernon, BC and Joyce Kavanagh of Cranbrook, BC; and many nieces, nephews and cousins in the Kootenays and other areas of BC. He was predeceased by his brother Billy (1951), his father Mike (1971), his mother Iris (1995) and many other relatives.

A graveside service for Fred will be held at the Kimberley Cemetery at 1:30 pm on Saturday, June 20, 2015 followed by a reception at McPherson Funeral Home in Kimberley.

The family would like to thank the nurses and doctors at East Kootenay Regional Hospital for the wonderful care they provided for Fred, especially the last 30 days.

Fred, we love you very much and you will be missed but your love and memories will live in our hearts forever.

Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service Condolences for the family can be offered at:

Study: a third of world’s largest groundwater basins

are overstressedIRVINE, Calif. - Satellite data show people are

overdrawing water from some of the world’s largest groundwater basins.

Researchers from the University of California, Irvine say it’s unclear how much water is left in the most overburdened aquifers. The problem is ex-pected to worsen with climate change and popula-tion growth.

Using measurements taken by NASA’s twin Grace satellites, scientists found the most overstressed groundwater basins were located in the driest re-gions.

Arabian Aquifer System in the Middle East, which serves more than 60 million people, was con-sidered the most stressed in the world followed by the Indus Basin aquifer of northwestern India and Pakistan.

The farm-rich Central Valley in California was considered highly stressed.

The two studies were published online Tuesday in Water Resources Research, a journal of the Amer-ican Geophysical Union.

Judge denies bail to Montreal teens facing

terrorism-related chargesMONTREAL - Two Montreal teens facing terror-

ism-related charges were denied bail Tuesday by Quebec Court Judge Robert Sansfacon.

El Mahdi Jamali, 18, and Sabrine Djermane, 19, will remain in detention until the end of the legal case against them.

Family and friends were present in the court-room as the decision came down.

The pair, a couple, have been detained since their arrests in mid-April.

From the outset, Sansfacon said granting bail would have been “particularly difficult” given the circumstances.

A bail hearing was held over four days earlier this month, but there is a publication ban on the evi-dence.

They each face four charges: attempting to leave Canada to commit a terror act abroad; possession of an explosive substance; facilitating a terrorist act; and committing an act under the direction or for the profit of a terrorist organization.

Jamali and Djermane, both students at College de Maisonneuve, a Montreal junior college, were arrested in April as what the Crown called a “pre-ventive measure.”

Bold as ever, Trump jumps in 2016 Republican race

NEW YORK - The Donald is running for presi-dent.

Real-estate mogul and reality-television star Donald Trump said Tuesday he will seek the Repub-lican nomination for president. He’s the 12th high-profile Republican to enter the 2016 race, with more to come in the weeks ahead.

“All of my life, I have heard, a truly successful person, a really successful person, and even a mod-estly successful person, cannot run for public office, just can’t happen,” Trump said. “Yet that’s the kind of mindset you need to make this country great again.

“So, ladies and gentlemen, I am officially running for president of the United States, and we are going to make our country great again.”

Trump made the announcement at the midtown Manhattan tower that bears his name, giving a ram-bling speech that wandered from foreign policy to President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul to Trump’s achievements in business. In his well-known bombastic style, he mixed boasts about his wealth with promises to defeat effortlessly the Is-lamic State group and negotiate trade deals with China.

Trudeau unveils plan for ‘real change’ Joan BrydenCanadian Press

OTTAWA - Justin Trudeau is casting him-self as the leader who will bring “real change” to what he calls a “parti-san swamp” created by Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s secretive, con-trolling and ultra-parti-san style of governing.

The Liberal leader vowed Tuesday that if elected, he would enact a sweeping 32-point democratic reform plan aimed at making gov-ernment more trans-parent, more respon-sive, more reflective of the voting choices of Canadians and less driven by raw partisan-ship.

The plan would change everything from the way people vote to how they access gov-ernment services, start-ing with a promise to make this fall’s federal election the last one conducted under the first-past-the-post elec-toral system.

Among other things, Trudeau promised a Liberal government would:

- Reform question period in the House of Commons so that one day each week would be devoted solely to grilling the prime min-ister.

- Impose spending

limits on political par-ties between elections, not just during election campaigns.

- Appoint an equal number of men and women to cabinet and adopt a govern-ment-wide appoint-ment policy to ensure gender parity and greater representation of aboriginal people and other minorities.

“The Harper Con-servatives have been in power for a decade and, year after year, they have grown more closed-off from Canadi-ans, more intolerant of debate and dissent, more self-serving, more secretive,” Trudeau as-

serted.“Harper has turned

Ottawa into a partisan swamp. He has used the tools of state to at-tack anyone who isn’t on his side.”

The most ambitious element of the plan is doing away with the current electoral sys-tem. First-past-the-post has long been viewed as the primary culprit behind declining voter turnout, contributing to Canadians’ belief that their votes don’t count.

Under the current system, the candidate with the most votes in each riding wins, whether or not he or she captures an abso-

lute majority of votes. That allows a party to win the majority of seats in the House of Commons with less than 40 per cent of the vote nationally, and can deliver wildly different seat counts to parties, even though they win similar shares of the na-tional vote.

Trudeau said a Lib-eral government would create a special all-par-ty committee to explore electoral reform op-tions, including ranked ballots, proportional representation, manda-tory voting and online voting. Based on the committee’s recom-mendations, the Liber-

als would introduce legislation within 18 months of forming gov-ernment.

NDP Leader Tom Mulcair suggested Trudeau is arriving late to the party, noting that New Democrats have advocated proportional representation for years.

“After a couple of years he hasn’t stood for anything, now he stands for everything, including things he voted against just a couple of months ago,” Mulcair said in Toronto.

The Liberals voted against an NDP motion, which called for replac-ing with proportional representation. While he’s willing to consider that, Trudeau said Ca-nadians deserve a “ro-bust consultation” be-fore such a monumen-tal change is made.

Trudeau is on record as personally favouring preferential balloting, under which voters rank their first, second, third and subsequent choices. If no candidate receives an absolute majority on the first ballot, the last-place candidate is eliminated and his or her support-ers’ second-choice votes are counted. That continues until one candidate receives over 50 per cent.

Environmentalists fear Parks Canada plans for ski area in Banff National Park

BoB WeBerCanadian Press

Parks Canada is rushing through new guidelines that would allow too much devel-opment at a ski hill in Banff National Park, an environmental group said Tuesday.

“The increased im-pact of commercial de-velopment in the parks is a huge concern,” said Sean Nichols, conserva-tion specialist with the Alberta Wilderness As-sociation.

At the beginning of June, Parks Canada re-leased guidelines for de-velopment and use of Lake Louise, one of Canada’s largest ski re-sorts and a regular World Cup race venue. The document, crafted in consultation with ski hill management, is in-tended to guide devel-

opment for the next 42 years.

“We want to know that if the market con-tinues to grow, we (will) be prepared to meet that need,” said Dan Markham, Lake Louise marketing manager.

The guidelines in-volve removing about 1,000 hectares from the resort’s leasehold in ex-change for permission to put runs on a current-ly unused 500 hectares.

They would also allow the hill to build several warming huts and a large facility on the top of Mount White-horn. The new moun-taintop facility would become the focus of the resort’s summer activi-ties, leaving the mid-mountain off limits to humans and for the use of animals such as grizzly bears.

Overall, the resort’s footprint would shrink by about 670 hectares.

While Nichols ac-knowledges some of the new guidelines would have merit, he points out that the land the re-sort would give up is useless to it anyway.

“It amounts to a land swap - land they

couldn’t use for land they can and are plan-ning to use.”

Although specific proposals would face an environmental assess-ment and public com-ment, Nichols said envi-ronmentalists fear that if they wait until a specific plan comes forward, it’ll be too late.

“(When) we get to some of those later stag-es, (proponents) say, ‘Well, we’re just con-forming to the guide-lines, which already happened years ago and there was a chance for public feedback back then.”’

RCMP officer convicted of perjury in taser death up for sentencing

C anadian Press

VANCOUVER - A Crown lawyer says the punishment for an ex-Mount-ie who committed perjury at a public inquiry into Robert Dziekanski’s death should be all the more serious be-cause of the job he did.

Richard Peck is recommending a sentence of between a year and a half to three years for former RCMP corpo-ral Benjamin (Monty) Robinson.

Robinson was convicted three months ago of lying at an inquiry into the circumstances surrounding Dz-iekanski’s death at Vancouver’s air-port.

Robinson’s defence lawyer says his client should get a conditional sen-tence because he was suffering from post-traumatic stress and sub-stance-abuse issues when he testified at the inquiry.
