Grant to kick start water treatmentThe B.C. government has ap-
proved a $50,000 grant for the Dis-
trict of Sicamous to begin the effort
to upgrade the community’s water
supply.
Bill Bennett, the province’s min-
ister of Community, Sport and Cul-
tural Development, was in Sicamous
Oct. 17 to make the announcement
– following through on a commit-
ment made by Premier Christy Clark
at the recent Union of BC Munici-
palities convention.
“I want you to know… Bill has
asked me to make sure we set this
right. I know you need that water
supply fixed, and we are going to
help you do it,” Clark stated in her
speech to UBCM delegates.
While in Sicamous, Bennett was
escorted by Mayor Darrell Trouton
on a tour of the community and ar-
eas impacted by the June 23 debris
flow in Two Mile.

Shuswap Market News Friday, October 26, 2012 www.saobserver.net A3
Bennett told the News that the $50,000 is spe-
cifically for a pilot proj-
ect that will “test the
technology the District
of Sicamous is propos-
ing to use for the drink-
ing water treatment
project that will come
next,” a treatment facil-
ity expected to cost $4.5
million.
“It is preliminary but
our staff has worked
with the district staff
and we think it’s pretty
close, a pretty reliable
number, so we’re cur-
rently looking for the
$4.5 million to do it,”
said Bennett. “I don’t
know where we’re go-
ing to get all the money
from yet, but it’s my top
priority in the province
and I need to find a way
to make it happen. I just
don’t know where all
the money is going to
come from yet.”
Explaining what the
pilot project will in-
volve, District of Si-
camous works services
manager Grady Mac-
Donald said a unit con-
taining water filtration
membranes, such as
those that would be
used in the proposed
treatment facility, would
be plugged into the ex-
isting water system.
“We will run our raw
water through it for a
minimum of three
months,” says MacDon-
ald. “That will give us
enough information that
we can decide what
we’re going to do.
There’s at least half a
dozen different types of
suppliers of this type of
technology out there
now. We all share the
same information that
we get from the tests.”
MacDonald said he is
confident in the type of
filtration being used,
but adds testing is still
required.
“I’m not going to say
it’s mandatory, but it’s
highly recommended. I
don’t know of too many
municipalities that have
proceeded with a filtra-
tion plant and not done
a pilot test,” MacDon-
ald explained.
Trouton says he’s not
surprised with the prov-
ince coming through so
soon after the Septem-
ber UBCM convention,
where council – accom-
panied by Shuswap
MLA George Abbott –
met with Bennett to talk
about the district’s need
for a solution regarding
water treatment. The
mayor was surprised,
however, that Bennett
himself made the trip to
Sicamous. He said it
gave the minister an op-
portunity to see first-
hand the issues the dis-
trict is dealing with.
This included the silt-
ing in the channel, and
Trouton expects the for-
mal process to have it
dredged will also move
forward.
Asked about Ben-
nett’s pledge to find the
$4.5 million, Trouton
says he’s confident the
province will come to
the table on this too.
“And that the pre-
mier, Christy Clark
made the announce-
ment – once they make
these big announce-
ments like this, it’s pret-
ty hard for them not to
come forward with it,”
said Trouton.

Money for water equipment tests
Columbia Shuswap Regional District directors are telling Ot-tawa to leave well enough alone.
The board added its voice to the chorus of concern over pro-posed federal electoral boundary changes.
Directors reviewed a Sept. 26 letter from the City of Armstrong to the Federal Electoral Bound-aries Commission for British Columbia protesting the removal of Falkland from the North-Oka-nagan Shuswap riding.
Area D Falkland-Silver Creek-Ranchero director René Talbot said not only would the change mean Falkland residents, who
are closely tied to Vernon, would have to go to Kelowna to see their MP, but would split his elec-toral area.
Talbot said the change would make it impossible for people to see their MP and asked the board to support a strongly worded letter protesting the changes.
“This makes no sense, all these realignments,” Talbot said, frus-tration evident. “They want to install 30 new MPs. How much is that going to cost? Economic times are pretty tough all over the world right now and I don’t
know why they (MPs) can’t look after 110,000 peo-ple.”
Newly elected Area C South Shus-wap director Paul Demenok seconded Talbot’s motion, pointing out pro-posed boundary changes would also
effectively cut Sorrento in half.But Demenok noted the board
meeting was his first since his September byelection win and he would be investigating the boundary issue further.
Directors agreed unanimously to tell the commission to leave the boundaries where they are.

homestead ... and a life.
For close to 30 years,
Czajkowski lived at Nuk

guage) were she operated a
small eco-tourism business
and, inspired by the land-
scape that surrounded her,
wrote nine books.
Her most recent book
Ginty’s Ghost: A Wilder-ness Dweller’s Dream (Har-
bour Publishing) chronicles
the many challenges of
building and settling into a
new home, located on Ginty
Creek.
“Ginty’s Ghost is a de-
parture from my other
books,” says Czajkowski.
“Instead of being about Nuk
Tessli, it is about my new
home at Ginty Creek.
“Only two people lived
there before me, Ginty Paul
and her father. Ginty was
a renowned eccentric. The
book is partly about my
efforts to establish myself
on her (long abandoned)
property, and partly about
Ginty herself told in letters
she wrote and stories from
people who knew her.”
Accounts of Ginty Paul
vary. Some locals remem-
ber her affectionately as “a
cheerful woman, always
laughing” while others
thought her open-door poli-
cy towards her animals a bit
odd – chickens would sleep
with her, and the bedroom
doubled as a maternity ward
for dogs, cats, goats and
sheep.
Still others feared her
volatile temper and outright
refused to step inside her
house – for fear of being
served “chicken poop tea.”
“She was a peculiar char-
acter,” writes Czajkowski.
“She allowed goats in her
house and kept a jar of pick-
led mice on the shelf. She
was just as likely to offer
tips on English etiquette as
she was to lambaste politi-
cians.”
In 2006, after nearly
three decades of wilderness
dwelling, far from neigh-
bours and roads, with the
nearest community acces-
sible only via float plane or
days of hiking, Czajkowski
writes how she decided to
purchase “a derelict home-
stead an hour’s drive south
of Anahim Lake.
Although the property
was mostly swamp and
packrat-infested buildings,
the asking price was within
my budget … and the loca-
tion affords beautiful views
and abundant wildlife.”
Each chapter intersperses
Czajkowski’s own experi-
ences building a new cabin
on the site, despite the fact
that she has a broken leg,
with those of Ginty Paul.
At times there are certain
similarities.
“Keeping my fingers
crossed, I cut a hole for
the window overlooking the
river. I have always had
the feeling, when I slice
through a cabin wall with
a chain saw, that the whole
building will fall apart …
light poured in. So did the
wind … the thermometer
on the post outside my door
registered minus 18 degrees
Celsius on the morning that
I cut a hole in the wall
to fit in another window.
There were the usual fid-
dles and hassles, but the job
went reasonably smoothly
and during the night I was
pleased to see light in the
room. Without street lights
to distort one’s vision, a
rural night is never truly
dark … ”
Right from the beginning
of the book it becomes clear
that Czajkowski and Ginty
have more than just a piece
of land in common.
They share a spirit of
independence and resource-
fulness, as well as an un-
wavering desire for a soli-
tary life immersed in the
spectacular landscapes of
the Chilcotin.
Czajkowski is touring
the province and will ap-
pear at the SAGA Public
Art Gallery Friday, Nov. 9
at 7 p.m., to present a slide
show and talk about her
new book.
Recently, many eyes were on the presidential debates in the United States as Democratic Presi-dent Barack Obama squared off against Republican challenger Mitt Romney.
Obama being far and away a much better speaker, with the ability to transfix viewers in a way Rom-ney cannot hope to equal, the consensus among pundits was that Obama had the most to lose from making a significant mistake, but Romney had the greater challenge in endearing himself to voters — especially the 47 per cent he may have disparaged in May at a small fundraiser.
Whether the debates did anything to move the polling numbers (Obama led entering the debate in Denver) remains to seen.
Meanwhile, in Canada, many eyes have been on Justin Trudeau as he this week announced he will be seeking to lead the Liberal party, which is tied so deeply to his father, Pierre Trudeau.
The name alone is enough to elevate Trudeau’s leadership bid far beyond that of previous aspirants.But, compared to the brief and utterly woeful ten-ures of Stéphane Dion and Michael Igantieff, the possibility of a young, handsome and articulate Trudeau reaching down to rescue the once-proud party only adds to the pizazz factor his bid creates.
Yes, politics is much more than style over sub-stance (though some elections have been won via the former, not the latter) and Trudeau’s celebrity will only carry him so far.
Speeches laden with clever lines will need to be augmented with policy beliefs and his vision of where Canada is going in the next decade.
That challenge is also Obama’s.As fine an orator as he is, voters battered by a
dismal economy during the president’s first term know full well pretty words in a splendid speech mean nothing the morning after, when jobs remain scarce and the future looks as bleak as a winter landscape on the Prairies.

MAIL BAGWhen I read last week’s issue
of Shuswap Market on the com-ing protest of the oil pipelines, I started to wonder just how many citizens in our country are aware of the looming FIPA deal with China, which is supposed
to be signed Nov. 1. There has been so little infor-
mation on this extremely impor-tant topic, I suggest people start to read up on this treaty and its signing over of our sovereignty.
If this deal goes through ac-
cording to experts on investment trade deals we could have no choice on these pipelines, it would be a done deal.
Dave Wrench
Trade deal has huge implications
Will Rogers never met anyone like Harper
Bill C-377 is a Pri-
vate Members Bill in-
troduced by my Con-
servative colleague
Russ Hiebert, MP for
South Surrey/White
Rock/Cloverdale, re-
quiring public financial
disclosure for labour
organizations.
Labour organiza-
tions play a valuable
role in Canadian soci-
ety, promoting work-
place health and safety,
and good compensation
for Canadian work-
ers. Our Conservative
Government supports
the valuable role labour
organizations perform
by providing several
hundred million dollars
in benefits through the
tax system, annually.
The premise behind
Bill C-377 is that the
public has a right to
know how the substan-
tial benefits it provides
to labour organiza-
tions are being used.
Public disclosure will
create greater support
for the valuable work
that labour organiza-
tions do as the public
learns how the benefits
they provide are being
used.
Public disclosure by
organizations receiv-
ing substantial public
benefits is not a new
concept.
In fact, Canadian
charities have been
publicly reporting their
spending for the last 35
years. And, as with
charities, any cost to
government or unions
of these new reporting
requirements will be
kept minimal through
the use of a standard-
ized system of elec-
tronic filing and post-
ing.
A good example is
the recent Elections
Canada investigation
into illegal union con-
tributions to the NDP
totalling more than
$340,000.
It is important for
union brotherhood
members to know
where their dues are
going and that all
transactions are legal.
Full disclosure will
ensure that the mem-
bership will have an
open, transparent and
accountable reporting
system for regulators
and membership to
scrutinize.
Public disclosure is
important to the Gov-
ernment of Canada as
we seek to make cer-
tain taxpayer dollars
and tax filings are ac-
curate.
Your government
has provided this scru-
tiny for charities, First
Nations and govern-
ment programs.
This bill will require
the unions open their
accounts to public and
membership review.

Meet Greg Kyllo – Twin Anchors MarineGreg Kyllo’s story is one that re-
minds us how hard work, vision and perseverance are the essential
ingredients of success.Greg has a lot of pres-sure on his shoulders – as the President of both Twin Anchors Marine and TA Structures, he is the largest private sector employer in Sicamous, B.C., a community that was recently rocked by destructive fl oods.
It’s no coincidence that Greg is in the busi-ness of building houseboats; Sicamous is known as the “houseboat capital of Canada.” As a small community where the population triples every summer, tourism industries like houseboat rent-als are essential to the livelihood of every family in Sicamous.
Founded in 1964 by Burt and Trudy Han-nah, Twin Anchors Marine was the fi rst rental houseboat company in western Canada. Greg’s stepfather purchased the company in 1977 and now Greg runs the manufacturing side with his wife Georgina, while his brother Todd and wife Jolayna look after the rentals.
It was Greg’s vision that “catapulted Twin Anchors from one-off builders to a whole pro-duction line” in 1993. Using the drafting skills he learned in high school, Greg designed the cruise craft that put the company on the international map. With a houseboat that had a stylish exte-rior and a hot tub, Twin Anchors was making millions of dollars, primarily from U.S. markets.
But Greg was never content to rest on his laurels. Twin Anchors was capturing an increas-ing share of a market that was shrinking. With 80 per cent of their business going on across the border, and shipping costs prohibiting them from selling houseboats outside of a 1500-kilometre radius, Greg feared that Twin Anchors was too exposed to the U.S. market. So he started think-
ing about other ways his business could thrive.One night while sharing a couple beers
aboard a Twin Anchors houseboat, his friend asked why the trailers he lived in on oil and gas drilling sites couldn’t be as luxurious as one of Twin Anchor’s houseboats. That got Greg thinking about the business that would become TA Structures.
TA Structures built its fi rst worker accom-modation model in 2005 and since then busi-ness has been growing, despite the tough times that lay ahead. After the 2008 fi nancial crisis, “the bottom fell out of both the marine and oil and gas sector,” Greg says. As luxury spending tightened and natural resource extraction slowed, Greg saw sales for both businesses slump. In January 2009, Greg employed 140 production workers. By July, he was down to 25.
In typical fashion, Greg persevered. Focusing on the opportunities available to TA Structures, Greg kept both companies afl oat, and today he once again employs 110 production workers. 2012 has been TA Structures’ best year yet and Greg projects they’ll do even better in 2013.
“A lot of our production today is the result of good fi scal policy, especially with the mining sector,” Greg says, “Because of all the red tape government has cut, our sales have really picked up.”
With the BC Jobs Plan’s commitment to 17 new and expanded mines by 2015, and its ambi-tious strategy to develop a liquefi ed natural gas industry that could generate a trillion dollars of economic activity in B.C. over the next 30 years, TA Structures should be able to grow and pro-vide even more jobs in Sicamous soon.
However, because of the highly-publicized fl oods that rocked Sicamous last June, Greg’s houseboat sales are at an all time low, and the
community has suffered because of the loss of tourism revenue. “The news media really sensa-tionalized it,” Greg says, “making it look so bad was really what did the most damage.” Never one to be dissuaded, Greg’s companies sand-bagged their marina facilities and with a lot long hours and hard work by their dedicated employ-ees, they were able to maintain operations.
Greg indicated that the marine sector is showing signs of recovery in the U.S., with strong interest expressed for fl eet expansion in 2013 by two of the 18 companies that they currently build for. Reduced houseboat replace-ment levels in commercial rental fl eets the past few years will result in big orders for Twin An-chors in the years ahead. Until then, Greg and his community can rely on the good jobs that TA Structures provides.
“We have good quality products and we treat people properly so we have a good reputation,” Greg says, “with any luck we will be hiring even more people again soon.”
Greg has recently become involved in Si-camous politics, acting as the Deputy Mayor, Chair of the Finance Committee and sitting on the Economic Development Committee. He is currently working with local educational insti-tutes to develop a skills training program that would help people in his community get a job that would allow them to stay close to home.
“With the type of work we do, young people would really get a chance to learn lots of different skills,” Greg says proudly, “Welding, construc-tion, electrical, plumbing, cabinetry, you name it … we do a little bit of everything.”
How Greg’s Story Connects with the BC Jobs Plan:
Enabling job creation is paramount to eco-nomic prosperity. Twin Anchors Marine and
TA Structures is the largest private-sector em-ployer in Sicamous thanks to Greg’s persever-ance through market fl uctuations and a recent natural disaster.
When BC businesses diversify to earn new market share, they are better positioned to sur-vive and take advantage of market changes.
There’s a ripple effect across all BC’s sectors when government cuts red tape. Greg attributes a boom in TA Structures trailer sales to recent changes in mining regulations.
Development of the liquefi ed natural gas in-dustry in BC will help create more jobs in the Sicamous area.

Show your lake stewardshipAnyone with a
green thumb, a love for
nature or just a natural
curiosity may wish to
take part in a Shuswap
Trail Alliance steward-
ship event set for Oct.
27.
The alliance has de-
signed a trail event to
help participants learn
more about native wet-
land species and the
invasive species trying
to call the Shuswap
home.
The day begins with
a pancake breakfast at
9 a.m. and is followed
by an informal invasive
species talk at 10.
Attendees will dis-
cover the difference
between a yellow flag
iris and a cattail, and
receive some training
on effective removal
and disposal of inva-
sive plants, from a wet-
land and forest envi-
ronment.
Following the talk
participants are invited
to slosh around, dig,
pull, drag and haul as
much yellow flag iris
as they can out of Little
White Lake.
This is just the start
of dealing with the iris,
that is spreading to oth-
er parts of the White
Lake ecosystem.
British Columbia
Parks has expressed
concern with the iris
spreading into the park
on Big White Lake and
is co-hosting the White
Lake Iris Pull.
There will be prizes
for guests, warming
stations, a BC Parks
biologist on location to
assist and lots of food.
Shovels and tools
will be provided by
the trail alliance and
gloves will be on hand
for everyone, compli-
ments of BC Parks.
Anyone planning
to attend the event
is asked to wear old
clothes as they are
bound to get dirty. It
is also recommended
that hip waders, warm
socks and rubber boots
are brought along.
If you are a snor-
kler or scuba diver and
would like to do some
underwater work, there
is a patch of water lil-
ies that need to be dug
out.
Take your canoe or
kayak along if you’d
like to take some time
out to paddle. There
will also be a couple of
boats available on site.
Join the community
in this effort to clean
up the Shuswap wet-
land.
White Lake is one
of the treasures of the
Shuswap, and the alli-
ance appreciates help
in keeping it clean and
functioning properly.
The workshop and
iris pull will be taking
place out of Massey’s
White Lake yard at
3163 White Lake Rd.
Parking is available
on the road above the
house, as well as in the
John Evdokimoff Bike
Park, which is about a
30-step walk down to
the area.
The event runs from
9 a.m. to 3 p.m. with
breakfast and lunch
provided.
Anyone planning
to attend tomorrow’s
event is asked to RSVP
beforehand to be sure
there is enough food
available.

Taking the bikes to Crowfoot
It has been 38 years
since my last trip up
to the top of Crowfoot
Mountain, when I went
up on horseback dur-
ing a trail ride with
friends.
After numerous re-
ports about the dam-
age from motorized
recreational vehicles
that is occurring to the
sub-alpine meadows
and wetlands, I was ea-
ger to see it firsthand.
Thanks to the extended
warm, dry weather we
drove the rough road to
the summit on October
10th and enjoyed a de-
lightful mountain bike
ride to the lookout and
back.
It did not take long
before we saw evi-
dence of mud-bogging,
as nearly every bog and
wetland is covered in
tracks and mud that
will likely be there for
many decades, if not
forever. Due to the lack
of provincial regula-
tions that prohibit the
use of motorized vehi-
cles in high elevations
except in the Okanagan
and parts of the Shus-
wap where there is vir-
tually no enforcement,
the disgraceful off-road
vehicle “wreckreation”
continues unabated in
accessible alpine areas
throughout the Shus-
wap and the province.
And B.C. remains the
only jurisdiction in
North America without
licensing and registra-
tion for off-road ve-
hicles.
It took us only about
an hour-and-a-half to
cycle on the rocky road
to the old fire lookout
atop Mount Mobley.
The Dominion Forest
Service built this look-
out in 1928 and like the
other lookouts, there
was a telephone line
attached to trees and
log-tripods in the al-
pine that ran down the
mountain to provide
for communication.
District Forest Ranger,
Charlie Mobley super-
vised the construction
of the lookout, the trail
and the phone line and
then named the peak
after himself.
Despite all the ef-
forts, the lookout was
not in service long, as
by 1930, the provincial
government had taken
over the forest service
and many of the Do-
minion fire lookouts
were shut down, in-
cluding Mt. Mobley.
Crowfoot Moun-
tain is far from pris-
tine. The rich meadows
have long been used for
grazing, first by sheep
and more recently by
cattle and most of the
balsam trees burned in
the 1967 Mag fire. The
first sheep were herded
to the Crowfoot pas-
ture in 1926 on what
was likely a First Na-
tion hunting trail that
was then cleared by
gold miners during the
1860s as an early route
to Seymour Arm and
the Big Bend. At times,
more than 4,000 sheep
grazed in this sub-
alpine meadow dur-
ing the summers, with
many of these herds
coming from the Barn-
hartvale ranching fam-
ily, the Cordoniers.
Amazingly, despite
many decades of graz-
ing, the native flora
species of sedges and
forbs are still present
according to provincial
range agrologist, Her-
ald Hetherington. How-
ever, the distribution of
the species has been
impacted and in areas
frequented by cattle,
such as those adjacent
to various springs, soil
“hummocking” occurs
due to the pounding of
hooves. More natural
conditions may slowly
be returning, as due to
market conditions the
range atop Crowfoot
has been vacant for
four years.
As we approached
the old lookout station
on our bikes, we were
amused by the high-
way sign that indicated
the need for a sharp
turn to the left. And no
wonder, as the look-
out is perched on the
edge of a high cliff,
that at least one vehicle
missed as we could
see the wreckage be-
low. Apparently, there
was also a sledder who
did not make the turn,
however he managed
to survive the fall and
was rescued the fol-
lowing day.
Adjacent to the look-
out, which is packed
full of firewood to
serve as an emergency
shelter in the winter for
the snowmobilers, is a
solar-powered commu-
nication tower. This is
one of the forest ser-
vice’s many repeater
stations that help pro-
vide the radio frequen-
cies used on the log-
ging roads.
Crowfoot Mountain
is listed in the Shuswap
Trail Guide; neverthe-
less it would be a gru-
elling, uninspiring slog
up the 14-kilometre-
long old sheep trail now
frequented by ATVs
and motorbikes to the
meadows. It seems the
best way to experience
the mountain is with
mountain bikes, but
only high-clearance
4x4s can make it up
the road.
The mountain expe-
riences the most use
during the winter sea-
son, when there is an
average of 10 snowmo-
biles per day and up to
50 on long weekends.
The Crowfoot
Snowmobile Club
manages an impressive
hut that serves as an
emergency shelter and
a clubhouse during the
winter season and they
put a new metal roof on
the old fire lookout 10
years ago.

Nurse practitioners meet needs
Nurse practitioners
in B.C. will be adding
to their list of duties,
thanks to new regula-
tions.
Working in collabo-
ration with doctors and
other health-care pro-
viders, nurse practitio-
ners (NPs) will have
the ability to admit and
discharge patients from
health-care facilities.
The regulations are
expected to help en-
hance health services
and meet patient need
by easing congestion
and reducing work-
loads, especially for
rural regions.
The majority of NPs
in B.C. have the educa-
tion and competencies
required to admit and
discharge, but did not
have the ability legis-
lated.
Linda Sawchenko,
an Interior Health re-
gional practice leader,
said NPs have integrat-
ed into health care be-
ginning in 2005, with
32 currently practising
in the province.
“They have been
providing much-need-
ed assistance,” says
Sawchenko, noting
there is a Nurse prac-
titioner in Enderby and
one in Chase.
“When the funding
was first announced,
we looked at commu-
nities that most need-
ed additional primary
health care services.”
Sicamous is also
hoping to receive fund-
ing for a nurse practi-
tioner in the near fu-
ture.
Sawchenko says
the health authority
is checking priorities
again and funding be-
comes available to hire
more nurse practitio-
ners over the new three
years.
She says other “good
news work” is being
done with regulations
to allow nurse practi-
tioners to work to their
full scope of practice.
“Our focus has been
on placing them in pri-
mary care community
settings and we also
have some done home
visits,” says Sawchen-
ko, noting decisions
about where the NPs
will be located will be
made in the next cou-
ple of months.
“The nurse practi-
tioner in Chase has be-
come one of the most
constant health-care
providers in that com-
munity, so we know
they do provide a
much-needed service.”
NPs meet many
health-care needs of the
community, increas-
ing access to quality
primary and commu-
nity health care. NPs
provide services from
a holistic nursing per-
spective, integrating el-
ements such as diagnos-
ing, prescribing, order-
ing diagnostic tests for
treating most common
medical conditions for
patients throughout the
lifespan.
Nurse practitioners
also work collabora-
tively in a broad variety
of settings including
acute care, residential
care, mental health and
community practice
with physicians.

Development of a
trail network has the
green light from En-
derby officials.
Council has agreed
to provide $10,000 a
year, over three years,
to the Shuswap Trail
Alliance.
“Trails are a good
idea,” said Coun. Beryl
Ludwig, adding that
they provide residents
with recreational op-
portunities while also
attracting tourists.
“The day we climbed
one of the trails, we
met 16 people.”
Among the alli-
ance’s projects have
been upgrades to the
Enderby Cliffs trail and
wetland protection on
the Larch Hills.
“They have been
putting trails in with
little funding support,”
said Mayor Howie Cyr.
Funding will come
from the city and the
regional district’s Area

CSRD miffed about bus cutbacks
Columbia Shuswap
Regional District di-
rectors have asked ad-
ministration to write a
letter to the B.C. Pas-
senger Transportation
Board expressing ex-
treme disappointment
over cuts to service.
Electoral area E
Rural Sicamous direc-
tor Rhona Martin said
this is not the first time
Greyhound has reduced
service.
Martin told directors
at last week’s board
meeting in Salmon
Arm that she recalls a
time when Area E resi-
dents could flag a bus
on the highway and it
would stop for passen-
gers, allowing them to
pay on the bus or pur-
chase their tickets at
the next station.
As well, she said,
buses would stop along
the highway to let pas-
sengers off near their
homes.
Now, she noted,
passengers have to go
to a depot to buy their
tickets, which is diffi-
cult for elderly people
or those without cars.
And, while she re-
alizes the buses are
sometimes running al-
most empty, she be-
lieves scheduling the
trips better would draw
more people to the ser-
vice.
“This is just an-
other way of eroding
life in the rural area,”
she says. “If you want
to keep their seniors
there, and they can’t
drive any more…”
Area D Falkland-
Silver Creek-Ranchero
director René Talbot
said Greyhound buses
go through Falkland
at 3:30 in the morning
and return at 6 p.m.
“But you can’t buy
a ticket in Falkland
and though they stop,
they won’t even pick
up freight,” he com-
plained. Salmon Arm
director Debbie Can-
non said she finds it
hard to tell a business
they should have more
stops or more services
if they can’t make it
financially. Area F
North Shuswap direc-
tor Larry Morgan con-
curred.
“They’re operating
a private business. Are
they going to look for
subsidies from some
level of government?”
he asked. “CN back in
the ’70s couldn’t make
it without subsidies and
they gradually phased
out services.”
Martin suggested
Greyhound should
have sought communi-
ty input before reduc-
ing service.
As well, she sug-
gested, the company
has a monopoly and
if they were intent on
reducing service, they
should lose the monop-
oly. Directors agreed
that a letter protest-
ing the cuts should be
sent to B.C. Passenger
Transportation Board,
with Area C South
Shuswap director Paul
Demenok was opposed
but offered no explana-
tion.

Flu vaccination clinics startingFlu clinics across
the Interior Health re-
gion have begun. In-
terior Health officials
say getting a flu shot
is one of the best ways
to protect yourself and
others from the flu and
its complications. The
flu shot is a safe, ef-
fective way to reduce
the chances of getting
and spreading influ-
enza. Those who are
not eligible for the free
clinics can still get a flu
shot. Check with your
pharmacist or doctor to
find out about getting
vaccinated.
Flu shots are avail-
able at free flu clinics
for people in high-risk
groups, including peo-
ple 65 years and older
and their caregivers or
household contacts,
and all children age 6
to 59 months of age.
There are many other
categories as well. To
find a flu clinic near
you, visit www.interi-
orhealth.ca or call your
local public health of-
fice at 250-833-4100.

The B.C. Govern-
ment is opening nine
more locations for
DriveABLE, including
one in Salmon Arm, to
help reduce travel for
those drivers, includ-
ing seniors, who are
referred to functional
cognitive assessment.
The number of loca-
tions has grown to 28
from 15 in 2011, with
new locations just add-
ed in Campbell River,
Duncan, Penticton,
Port Alberni, Powell
River, Salmon Arm,
Terrace, Vernon and
Williams Lake.
The 28 communi-
ties that now have
DriveABLE loca-
tions are: Abbotsford,
Burnaby, Campbell
River, Chilliwack, Co-
quitlam, Courtenay,
Cranbrook, Dawson
Creek, Duncan, Kam-
loops, Kelowna, Lang-
ford, Nanaimo, Nelson,
North Vancouver, Pen-
ticton, Port Alberni,
Powell River, Prince
George, Richmond,
Salmon Arm, Sechelt,
Surrey, Terrace, Van-
couver, Vernon, Victo-
ria and Williams Lake.
The majority of re-
ferrals to DriveABLE
by the Offi ce of the
Superintendent of Mo-
tor Vehicles (OSMV)
stem from reports from
medical practitioners
who are concerned
about an individual’s
abilities related to safe
driving.
In 2011, OSMV re-
viewed 140,000 driver
medical examination
reports, requiring about
2,700 or two per cent of
those drivers to under-
take the assessment.
Government covers
the cost of both the in-
offi ce and on-road as-
sessments for all driv-
ers it refers.
“While a very small
number of seniors ac-
tually require the drive-
able assessment, we
will continue to look
for ways to improve
service, expand loca-
tions and provide in-
formation to families
when a cognitive as-
sessment is required,”
said Shirley Bond,
Minister of Justice and
Attorney General.

CHASE
The Chase museum will soon be under new own-ership, but don’t worry, it will still be business as usual.
Village of Chase Council recently agreed to pur-chase the museum, with an estimated value of $450,000, for a total of $50,000. The $50,000 would pay off all of the remaining debt incurred during the restoration of the museum following the 2011 fire, leaving only day-to-day costs.
“This is a fraction of the costs that were incurred to do the restoration,” says Joni Heinrich, Chase’s chief administrative officer, in an email.
While some of the funds came from the building insurance, a large portion was collected through continuous fundraising by museum volunteers.
The Chase and District Museum and Archives Society plans to lease the property back from the village and operate the museum as it normally would. The society would be held responsible for paying all bills such as electricity, gas, telephone and other costs associated with operating the mu-seum. However, it will now be the village’s respon-sibility to fix a leaky roof or mow the lawn.
The village’s decision to accept the society’s offer may have ultimately saved the museum that the community has worked so hard to rebuild.
In a letter to the village on Oct. 4, Victor Pages, society president, stated that the society did not be-lieve that the museum would be able to keep its doors open long-term, unless the village stepped in to help them out.
# The Village of Chase is purchasing the Chase museum, which will con-tinue to be operated by the Chase and District Museum Society. As well as helping to save the museum, the village may have access to grant funding that the society will not.

Chase Volunteer
Firefighters were busy
last week, training
some of the village’s
future crew members.
In an attempt to edu-
cate some of the local
children on fire safety
and the importance of
knowing “two ways
out,” the department
hosted two events fo-
cusing on the students
at Haldane Elemen-
tary.
Chase Fire Chief,
Brent Chamberlain
explains that in years
past the hall would host
only their annual Fire
Chief For a Day event.
This gave the local
firefighters a chance to
bring two children from
each class from kinder-
garten to Grade 3.
The event had prov-
en to be such a success
that the local firefight-
ers have since added
a second event which
focuses on students in
grades four to seven.
In both cases the stu-
dents were picked up at
the school in the fire
and rescue trucks and
then brought to the hall
where they were able to
try on gear, meet some
of the local volunteer
firefighters and get a
tour of the hall.
Some of the Hal-
dane students were
able to watch a video
on fire safety, as well
as learn how to run a
hose and how a fire-
fighter properly enters
into a confined space
during a fire.
Wide-eyed students
watched closely as
they were shown just
how high the ladder
truck could go, as well
as what the many tools
inside the fire trucks
were used for.
The students fin-
ished off their day by
eating a lunch with
their local firefighters
before being brought
back to their classes,
once again by fire
truck.
Students ride in style on fire trucks
Lots of fun and learning # Young Chase residents got a glimpse of the inner workings of the fire department, when the Chase Fire Department held its annual Fire Chief for a Day event for Kindergarten to Grade 3 students, as well as an open house.

The bad part of the weekend came early as Sicamous scored in the first period at 14:07 on the power play. It was the first goal in a hat trick evening for Cameron Berry. Less than a minute later Brendan Devries struck for his first in a four-goal evening.
At game’s end, the Eagles came out with eight goals and secured a shutout for goalie Jack Surgenor.
The game ended on an ugly note with Jacob Mattes being flattened in his crease
with 20 seconds left in the game. Suspen-sions arose with the Heat getting the worst of it.
On Saturday, Oct. 20, Heat fans saw their team take to home ice against the second-year Summerland Steam.
The good side of the team showed up on this evening with the Heat taking a 2 to 1 victory.
The Steam opened the scoring in the second on a power-play after a scoreless first period.
The Heat came out in the third hot-to-trot and put that energy to good use, scor-ing twice. Shelby Kostyshen scored early
with Nicholas Fidanza getting the lone as-sist. Later in the third, Captain Kurtis Johnson put the biscuit in the basket as-sisted by Kostyshen and Fidanza.
Kostyshen was awarded the first star and Fidanza third.
After a 10-game losing streak, the 265 fans in attendance had something to cheer about and hope for the future.
The Heat faced the Kelowna Chiefs on Tuesday, Oct. 23, and were defeated 5-1.
The boys will be back in town for a Fri-day night tilt with rivals the Kamloops Storm on Friday, Oct. 26 and then they travel to Sicamous on Saturday.

Chase Greyhound passengers may be see-ing some changes soon as the company has pro-posed route cuts be-tween the Alberta bor-der, Highway #1 and Vancouver.
Tera Lee Larson, Chase Greyhound man-ager, says if it happens, it will most likely affect
their business as well as Chase residents.
“Seniors who don’t drive or can’t drive, use the bus to get into Kam-loops,” explains Larson, who could think of a few regulars who use the Greyhound as a means to see their doc-tors.
“No decision as been
made yet,” says Larson, “but I suspect if a route does get cut, it will prob-ably be the morning one into Kamloops.”
The Chase branch has already seen route cuts in the past, the most re-cent loss being the morning route to Salm-on Arm.
Any concerns about
these possible changes can be emailed to [email protected]. faxed to 250-953-3788 or mailed to B.C. Passen-ger Transportation Board, Box 9850, Sta-tion Provincial Govern-ment, Victoria, B.C., V8W 9T5.

Children are often the focus of food marketing campaigns. Companies view children as having significant purchasing power because of their influence on parents and caregivers. Many of these campaigns influ-ence children’s food preferences, food choic-es and the products they request, and the results are not always healthy.
Children are often tar-geted in the grocery store through packag-ing, labelling, pricing and product placement. Food products use bright colours, characters, shapes, and flavours to grab the attention of children. Manufacturers pay extra to have their product located at eye level, at the end of aisles and at the cashier in the hopes that their attrac-tively packaged prod-ucts will be noticed by children. Many products marketed to children are high in sugar, fat, and salt. With the increasing rates of childhood obe-sity in Canada the food preferences and choices of children is a growing concern.
Parents can learn to successfully navigate the grocery store and avoid the lure and temp-tation of less healthy op-tions for children. Here’s
a couple tips to help en-courage healthy food choices in the grocery store.
Look beyond the flashy claims on the product label. Some food packages contain misleading claims about the product. For in-stance, a beverage pack-age may use big colour-ful fonts to draw atten-tion to its high vitamin and mineral content; however, it may not be as obvious that the bev-erage also contains lots of sugar because the food manufacturer does not draw attention to this information. Check the nutrition facts table, especially the percent daily value and the in-gredient list for a more accurate description of what a product actually contains.
Bring two grocery lists to the store – one for yourself and one for your child. Make sure the lists include healthy choices. Children can help grocery shop by looking for items on their list. A list will help them stay focused and they will be less dis-tracted by other prod-ucts in the grocery store. If children are influ-enced by labels and placement of less healthy food, divert their
attention back to the items still needed on their grocery list.
Make sure your child has eaten something be-fore going to the gro-cery store with you. If necessary, provide a healthy snack to occupy them while shopping. A hungry shopper, wheth-er a child or adult, is more likely to be tempt-ed by unhealthy foods.
So next time you and the kids head to the gro-cery store, do a little planning. Make some lists and don’t forget to think critically about all those flashy claims right before your eyes.
- Rose Soneff, com-
munity nutritionist with Interior Health in col-laboration with the UBC Dietetics Program in-terns Cherice Lo and Laurel Zvaigzne.

JONES, ALLEN GLENSeptember 5, 1942
– October 11, 2012. Allen was born in Stettler, Alberta, but grew up in Calgary. He passed away peacefully with family and friends by his side. He was grateful for the time he spent at home during his illness, from April to Oct 1st, being tended to by his long-time companion and friend, Ruth, with the help of their two dear friends, Liz Rasmuson and SheilaHalvorson.

He was predeceased by his mother, Helen, hisfather, Elmer, sister Linda Jones and Mel (Val)Jones, and Bonnie (wife of Bill Jones).
Allen owned his own business, New Home Plans.His house plans appeared monthly in Friday AM.He had a high quality website - newhomeplans.net, and most of his house plans were ordered byU.S. clients. His pride and joy, however, was indesigning the Salmon Arm Legion.
He was a born artist and painted murals bothin the former Salmon Arm Hotel pub and dining room. He also loved doing cartoons and creatingcrossword puzzles. He was multi-talented and hada brilliant mind.
Allen was an active Legion member andvolunteer. He enjoyed socializing with fellowLegion members.
His main interests were camping, travelling,science, designing homes, art, and watchingsports of all kinds. His favorite teams were theCalgary Flames and Calgary Stampeders. Next onhis list were the BC Lions and Vancouver Canucks(unless they were playing Calgary).

Pumpkin peepers# Leonie and Louisa Steigenberger pop their heads up from the pumpkins on display at De Mille’s Farm Market.
Salmon Arm’s Askew’s Up-
town supermarket won a major
award at the Re/MAX Thomp-
son Okanagan Commercial
Building Awards last week in
Kelowna.
There were 33 fi nalists for the
awards from Kamloops, Chase,
Salmon Arm, Revelstoke, Ver-
non, Kelowna, Peachland, Sum-
merland, Penticton and Oliver,
with more than 70 nominations.
To be eligible, buildings had to
be completed between Jan. 1,
2011 and June 30, 2012.
Askew’s took the retail
award.
“Commercial buildings are
very important in the life of each
community, and events like this
bring the players and ideas be-
hind these projects out into the
spotlight,” said event organizer
Mark MacDonald.
The design of Askew’s Up-
town store solved the problem
of a severely sloping site by
placing the store’s service space
underground, extending the
buildable area to the property
line, creating access from a low-
er level and avoiding costly and
unattractive retaining walls.
Askew’s Uptown wins building award
JAMES MURRAY/MARKET NEWS
Salmon Arm busi-
ness organizations have
united behind a cam-
paign to promote a vari-
ety of community assets
and offerings that are
distinctly products of
the Shuswap.
The Product of the
Shuswap ad campaign
is itself a product of the
Salmon Arm Economic
Development Society
(SAEDS), the Salmon
Arm Chamber of Com-
merce and Downtown
Salmon Arm.
“In our vision, a
product of the Shuswap
could be a person or a
project, it could be a
service or a business, it
could be a community
asset or even a physi-
cal item that’s grown
or manufactured here
in the Shuswap,” said
Salmon Arm economic
development manager
Lana Fitt. “This cam-
paign could be used to
market our agricultural
products… innova-
tion that’s occurring in
our industrial park, our
construction industry,
tourism experiences or
any other areas of our
economy.”
The first phase of the
campaign is designed to
showcase local retailers
working to meet sup-
ply gaps by expanding
product lines.
“What we’re seeking
to do in this campaign is
highlight Salmon Arm
businesses who are do-
ing great things, and
there are a number of
them,” said Fitt. “The
businesses and people
are a product of the Shus-
wap and we’re proud to
have them as part of our
economy and want to
recognize them as such,
so this whole campaign
is wrapped around this
product of the Shuswap
branding.”
Coun. Alan Harrison
said he liked that the
three organizations are
behind the campaign,
and that local business-
es are working to “fill
that gap.” He suggested
retailers featured in the
campaign may want to
mention pricing.
“I know that many
families are certainly
looking for that,” com-
mented Harrison.
In response, Fitt ex-
plained how, it’s not just
about revenue, but also
supporting residents in
a tough situation.
