Robin RiveRs“What interested me

in the crew position first of all was the overall goal of The Nature Trust. I am currently at-tending a diploma pro-gram at Selkirk College in Environmental Plan-ning,” said Cody Fer-nandes of the Kootenay HSBC Conservation Youth Crew.

“I saw The Nature Trust as a very valuable opportunity to gain in-sight towards the strate-gies that are used to ac-quire property and what prescriptions are imple-mented to maintain their structure.”

The Nature Trust of British Columbia hires crews each summer to tackle a wide variety of conservation activities on properties across the province and learn valu-able skills for future em-ployment. Training in-cludes First Aid and Bear Aware as well as the safe handling of

power tools.“Over the summer I

learned that when deal-ing with conservation properties everything takes time and you can-not always see the final product instantly,” says Cody.

“Prescriptions take time and it is important to pass the knowledge and techniques from one summer crew to the next so the ecosystems can fully benefit from the efforts put fourth each summer. Trees and shrubs don’t develop or grow overnight, and knapweed doesn’t just disappear after you pull it. It is important to monitor specific areas seasonally to maintain the desired integrity of the properties.”

The crews perform on-the-ground work as well as attending work-shops from specialists in the field on topics such as bird counts, and for-est and wetland ecolo-

gy. They also contribute to the local community in a variety of ways.

This year the crew installed a kiosk at the Wigwam Flats to inform hikers of the importance of the property to the local ecosystem. As well, they created a new gate and parking area at the Sheep Mountain prop-erty to accommodate the high population of anglers and hikers who frequent the area.

The crew alswo cre-ated floating anchored logs to help increase habitat for Painted Tur-tles at Elizabeth Lake which is a popular area for families to recreate and view the turtles within Cranbrook city limits.”

“At the beginning of the summer I was hop-ing to gain knowledge and experience in an environmental work-place in the Kootenays,” explains Cody. “Now at the end of the summer I

can say I have gained so much more than that.”

“My favourite activity was thinning the dense growth of fir and spruce on the Columbia Lake East Conservation prop-erty where logging had previously occurred in an effort to increase Big-horn Sheep habitat for a herd that resides in the area.”

When asked about his future plans, Cody says, “I will be finishing my diploma in the Inte-grated Environmental Planning program and Selkirk College.”

In 2014, HSBC Con-servation Youth Crews are operating on Van-couver Island, Lower Mainland, South Okanagan, East Koote-nay, and Peace River.

The Nature Trust is pleased to have HSBC Bank Canada as the title sponsor of the HSBC Conservation Youth Crew Program for the ninth year. Other spon-

sors include BC Minis-try of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Oper-ations, Canada Summer Jobs (Service Canada), The Colin and Lois Pritchard Foundation, Ducks Unlimited Cana-da, Fish and Wildlife Compensation Pro-gram, Great-West Life, the Habitat Conserva-tion Trust Foundation, and The Tony Cartledge Fund.

As a leading non profit land conservation organization, The Na-ture Trust of British Co-lumbia is dedicated to protecting BC’s natural diversity of plants and animals through the ac-quisition and manage-ment of critical habitats. Since 1971 The Nature Trust along with our partners has invested more than $80 million to secure over 70,000 hectares (173,000 acres) across British Colum-bia.

A telephone call in which the caller claims that if you don’t make a payment, your power will be switched off is a scam, according to BC Hydro.

The Crown corporation is warning British Columbi-ans about the new tele-phone scam. BC Hydro cus-tomers are receiving calls where the caller claims to represent BC Hydro and says power will be discon-

nected if a payment is not received.

BC Hydro reminds cus-tomers that the company does not collect credit card or bank account informa-tion over the phone.

“Customers are also re-

minded that if they receive a call from someone repre-senting BC Hydro and they doubt the authenticity of the call, they should hang up and call back,” the company said.

If payment is actually

past due on an account, BC Hydro will send notices ask-ing for payment in the mail. It will also use an automated dialer to remind customers to make a payment before electricity supply is impact-ed.

BC Hydro customers are asked to report these calls by calling BC Hydro at 1-800-BC-Hydro, Cran-brook RCMPat 250-489-3471 and the Canadian An-ti-Fraud Centre at 1-888-495-8501.

BC Hydro warning of telephone scam

trevor CrAwleyAfter a 35-year ten-

ure with the RDEK, Dan McNeill has called it a career.

NcNeil, who served as the Building and Protective Services Manager for the last 10 years, was honoured by the board of directors during their monthly meeting last Friday.

“Over the past 35 years, Dan has been a dedicated servant to our public and a reli-able employee. He has always been a well-re-spected member of the RDEK team and is known for his sense of humour,” said Rob Gay, chair of the board and Area C director. “Dan has personally wit-nessed the myriad of changes this organiza-tion and his own de-partment have experi-enced and has helped the staff through the changing times.”

McNeill started his

career in 1979 as a building inspector with the RDEK. He was pro-moted to Building In-spector 2/RRAP coor-dinator a year later, and further advanced to Building Inspector 3/RRAP—a position he held for 13 years.

His last post as Building and Protective Services manager was an era of change.

Before McNeill took over, the department was solely focused on building inspection and bylaw enforce-ment. When he arrived, that changed with the addition of emergency programs, fire services, 911, community wild-fire protection and of-fice maintenance.

McNeill had a chance to address the board and his col-leagues, recalling a conversation he had with a friend back in high school.

“[He said] find

something you love to do and figure out a way to get someone to pay

you to do it. And I feel like that’s what hap-pened. I’ve enjoyed all

35 years of my tenure here. Everyday I came to work it was always a new challenge.

“…When I started, there was no such thing as a fax machine, no such thing as comput-ers, and cell phones, as we know them today, were the size of Get Smart—Maxwell Smart’s shoe,” he joked. “So there have been a lot of changes. As a matter of fact, my secretary used to use carbon paper. When I mention that to my secretary now, she looks at me like I have two heads. So there has been a lot of changes,

but they’ve all been pret-ty good.”

McNeill left a legacy with the RDEK, as he was project manager for the hew boardroom, conference room and RDEK chair office that was opened in April 2013.

McNeill also had a impact with RDEK pro-grams, playing a role in the logistics branch during the wildfires of 2003, and carried out the same role during flood-ing in recent years. Mc-Neill was also involved in drawing up those emergency support plans.

townsmAn stAffCranbrook has a new

Apprentice Advisor to provide on-the-ground support and guidance for local apprentices and employers.

Marlin Ratch will begin his role as Ap-prenticeship Advisor at the end of September 2014. His role will also focus on recruiting and supporting Aboriginal apprentices within local communities.

The Apprenticeship Advisors serve as an ex-tension of the Industry Training Authority Cus-tomer Support team. They have the primary responsibility of provid-ing regional support to apprentices and spon-sors, and according to the authority, create a positive impact on con-tinuation and comple-tion rates for appren-ticeship.

Ratch has a back-ground in Red Seal Chef training. He has sat on several labour market boards.

Marlin is one of the six new Apprenticeship Advisors adding to the existing four Advisors already in place in the province.

By the end of Sep-tember, the authority will have 10 Apprentice-ship Advisors. They are located in Cranbrook, Dawson Creek, Kam-loops, Kelowna, Nanai-mo, Prince George, Ter-race, the Lower Main-land and Victoria.

The advisor initiative came as a result of a province-wide consul-tation into apprentice-ship supports in 2013, and included input from multiple stake-holders.

Arne PetryshenThe intersection of

Panorama Road and 30th Avenue North has for a longtime been a three way intersection, but it is now a four-way stop. A report originally came to council from the Cranbrook In Mo-tion committee recom-mending that 30th Ave N become a through road to match some similar nearby roads

that come onto 30th. The request to

change the intersection originally came from a retired RCMP accident specialist who recom-mended a four-way stop.

The intersection in question is currently a three-way stop with a through street coming down the hill.

A number of resi-dents of the Panorama

Heights neighbourhood sent council their wor-ries, talking about the dangers of having the stop sign at the bottom of the hill, which they say gets icy in the winter.

Ed and Carole Oak-ley said in the past 36 years living there, they have had lots of close calls. They said if there was a stop sign at the bottom of the hill, they are sure there would

experience there the best solution for the fu-ture would be a four way stop.

The difference, he said, is the curve in the street as you come down from Panorama, as compared to the other two intersection at Mt. Fisher Drive and Park Royal Drive.

Stetski put forward a motion to make the in-tersection a four-way stop.

The intersection originally became a three-way stop sign prior to becoming a part of the city.

“The maintenance on that hill was not what it could have been,” Stetski said. He added that from speaking with residents, if the city agreed to make the street a priority for plowing in the winter they would be willing to compromise about the four-way stop.

The motion on the four-way stop was ap-proved.

have been a serious ac-cident.

In a letter to the Oak-leys Mayor Wayne Stets-ki explained that the Cranbrook in Motion committee recommen-dation to city council was based off of a De-cember 2013 ICBC re-port. It is meant to mir-ror the intersections at the bottom of the hills at 30th Avenue North and Park Royal and Mt. Fish-er Drive. Those have stop signs on the access streets and a through-way on 30th Ave.

“There has been a three way stop sign at that intersection for

many, many years,” said Mayor wAyne Stetski at the Aug. 18 council meeting. “As you’re coming down from Pan-orama there was no stop sign at the bottom.”

Stetski said the RCMP specialist wit-nessed a number of close calls on the inter-section.

“People are not ex-pecting three-way stops, people are expecting four-way stops,” he said.

But the study recom-mended changing 30th to a through street.

Stetski said residents are worried that the changes could lead to

serious accidents be-cause of the difficulty in stopping in the winter months.

Council referred the request to engineering.

“Basically, and right-fully so, it’s not up to this department to make recommendations that may go against this committee’s recom-mendations and coun-cil’s resolution,” he said, “We have traffic engi-neers to refute the deci-sions of council.”

Stetski said his granddaughter’s paper route brings him to that intersection once a week. He said from his

Cranbrook council hopes new four-way stop leads to safer intersection

t r e vo r C r Aw l e yAgriculture is very much

a part of the East Kootenay region, and with that in mind, the RDEK had a chance to review a draft re-port for an agricultural plan on Thursday.

Presented by Dave Struthers of VAST Resource Solutions Inc, the report de-tailed recommendations that included enhancing in-stitutional support for agri-culture, improving the eco-nomic viability of agricul-ture, encouraging agricul-

ture on Agriculture Land, increasing public knowl-edge and support of agricul-ture and setting up a region-al agri-food system strategy.

“There’s some very solid recommendations in the plan and it’ll move now to the public and come back to the board in probably a month,” said Area C director Rob Gay.

“…I don’t know if there’s many surprises in it. I think we all realize that that in-dustry struggled over the last few years. The largest

portion of producers in our area are beef-operators and I think the last two years — and I’m hoping this year — that prices have finally come up, but for a long time, pric-es were low. So low, in fact, that many people cut back on the size of their herds and the crown land leases were vacant for a few years.”

Hiring a agricultural liai-son officer — someone who can navigate regulations and support agricultural ini-tiatives in the region — was also one of the recommen-

dations.“One of the big recom-

mendations was a agricul-ture advisory person, be-cause many people like to try a different crop or a dif-ferent way to raise animals or the latest in the technolo-gy around it and they don’t have access to that informa-tion,” Gay said.

“In the past, the Ministry of Agriculture used to have these liaison officers that would work one-on-one with a rancher or farmer, but they don’t exist any

more, so the report is sug-gesting that we find some funds and hire someone to do the work, so that’s some-thing we’ll have to take very seriously.”

Other issues identified in the report include succes-sion plans, as Gay added that young people are leav-ing family ranching and farming operations because of the uncertain financial returns and the economic instability around the agri-culture industry.

Farmers are also getting

creative in growing different kinds of crops, which can run into restrictive regulato-ry problems, Gay continued.

The agriculture plan is not intended to result in new regulations or review boundaries of the Agricul-tural Land Reserve.

The public has up to Sep-tember 24 to provide com-ment or feedback on the plan. A public meeting will be held at the Jaffray Com-munity Hall on Monday, Sept. 8 from 7-9 p.m. to present the plan.

Submit tedThe Sam Steele Society is pleased to

announce the lucky winners of the 2014 Sam Steele Days Photo Contest, Ryan and Mary McFarlane of Cranbrook.

A photo of son Lucas McFarlane, the now six-month old boy with big blue eyes, was captured by father Ryan while con-tently waiting for the Sam Steele Days Pa-rade and brandishing an adorable mous-tache laden soother in his mouth.

Ryan sent the photo to proud Grand-ma Mel McFarlane who promptly entered it in the contest, with parent’s permission.

A committee of eight chose the photo out of the many entries that were submit-ted following the biggest Sam Steele Days community festival that the City of Cran-brook has ever seen, in celebration of the festival’s 50 year milestone.

In addition to the $50 prize, the photo of “Little Boy Blue”, Lucas McFarlane, will snag the centre spot on the 6th panel of the “Faces of Sam Steele” photo collage, reserved for all the images collected from the 50th celebration of the festival, includ-ing all others submitted for the contest. The photo collage will be on public dis-play prior to and during every Sam Steele Days until a permanent exhibit location can be secured.

Education Minister Peter Fassbender all but ruled out a call today from the B.C. Teachers Federation for bind-ing arbitration to end the teachers strike.

BCTF president Jim Iker urged the province to agree to arbitration and leave class size and composition to be settled by the courts, promis-ing the union would then hold a membership vote on sus-pending the strike and return-ing to work.

Fassbender said he does not categorically reject the idea, adding the government team needs to see the detailed proposal in writing.

“I’ve never been a fan of binding arbitration,” he said, adding handing over control to a third party risks an out-come that compromises B.C.’s balanced budget and unac-ceptably damages the prov-ince’s finances.

He remained firm that the province wants a negotiated settlement in line with the pay raises accepted by other gov-ernment unions.

“This government will not raise taxes in order to provide a settlement to one union that does not reflect what the other public sector has done,” Fass-bender said.

“The one and only option that I believe strongly makes sense is for both parties to be at the table, for the B.C. Teach-ers Federation to become re-alistic in their wage and bene-fit proposal, and then for us to negotiate, mediate the other items that are still at the table.”

Fassbender also made it clear he wasn’t happy that Iker gave the government’s negotiator just five minutes warning of the offer, with no details.

Iker, in a live-streamed statement to teachers and the media, called binding arbitra-tion the “fastest and most fair option that will see schools open and our kids back in the classroom.”

He accused the province of “delay tactics” and criticized attacks delivered on Twitter.

“This government has put up road blocks,” Iker said Fri-day.

Among his preconditions

is that the province drop its proposed E80 clause, which allows either side to dodge the effect of a future appeal court ruling against them on class size and special needs re-sources.

“Their attempt to bargain their way out of their two court losses has been the big-gest obstacle to a settlement,” Iker said.

Earlier in the week, gov-ernment negotiator Peter Cameron said arbitration was undesirable, not just because of the financial risk to govern-ment, but because it takes the decision out of the hands of both the government and the BCTF.

“The parties end up not really having made the hard decisions and owning the out-come,” he said. “And it in-volves a third party, who would likely be a labour rela-tions person rather than an educator, making educational decisions.”

Province all but rules out BCTF call for binding arbitrationMinister wants proposal details, firm on wage increases

See commentary, page 6

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 2014

The B.C. Liberals learned the risks of binding arbitration the hard way, from a budget-busting award handed down just days before they were preparing to present their first fiscal plan to the provincial legis-lature.

The date was Feb. 8, 2002. Arbitrator Allan McEachern, ruling in a process that had commenced under the previous New Democratic Party government, granted an interim fee increase to doctors that ended up costing the provincial treasury hun-dreds of millions of dollars.

“Astounding,” said then-finance minis-ter Gary Collins. “I don’t know how the arbitrator expects the peo-ple of the province to come up with that amount of money. We have to get some sense of sanity about what the people can afford.”

Though McEachern didn’t fully cost the impact of his award, the finance ministry would later peg it as a 20-per-cent fee increase that added up to $400 million annually.

The Liberals had clearly expected a more sympathetic outcome from McEach-ern, having endorsed him as arbitrator in the fee dispute not long after taking office. “His integrity and stature ensures doctors’ issues will be resolved as quickly and fairly as possible,” they said in agreeing that the former chief justice was the right man for the job.

Especially galling was the way he ap-peared to have disregarded the guidelines governing his own process.

The New Democrats, in establishing the framework that would send the fee dispute to arbitration, had wisely insisted that the terms of reference “will include the objec-tive of ... reflecting the financial circum-stances of government.”

Mindful of that guideline, the Liberals had taken steps to ensure that the arbitra-tor would recognize that those circum-stances were dire.

Finance minister Collins and then-

health minister Colin Hansen spent sever-al hours one day in the summer of 2001 briefing McEachern on government’s in-ability to fund a major fee increase for doctors or anyone else.

“Certainly, the minister of finance was very open and very frank with Mr. McEach-ern,” Hansen would later tell the legisla-ture. “It was a very good discussion about the state of the province’s finances and the challenges we’re facing.”

But if ever a government needed re-minding that arbitrators take their inde-pendence seriously, there it was in the pages of McEachern’s more-than-200-

page ruling.That notion that the

award should reflect gov-ernment’s financial cir-cumstances?

McEachern acknowl-edged the clause in his terms of reference, only to brush it aside.

“We cannot ignore the words of our ju-risdiction which requires us to reflect the financial circumstances of government,” the former chief justice wrote. “(But) gov-ernment cannot expect that it would seek to arbitrate reasonable compensation and then say that reasonable compensation cannot be paid because of its financial cir-cumstances.”

McEachern was persuaded by the evi-dence presented by the doctors that their fees were falling behind those of neigh-bouring Alberta, risking an exodus at the very time that B.C. was experiencing a shortage of qualified physicians.

“We must not be deterred by the enor-mous numbers that arise in this case,” he wrote.

“The government can’t afford NOT to pay reasonable compensation if medicare is to be defended as required by law and the health needs of the public.”

As to funding the necessary increase, McEachern pointed to the proven options from years gone by. “For many years, the government has financed medical services

by a combination of revenue and deficit financing,” he observed. “There’s no doubt that government can fund any award that we may make by a variety of means at its disposal, painful as they may be.”

Taking the hint, Collins hastily redrafted his budget to boost the provincial sales tax by half a point, and he also increased medicare premiums and the tobacco tax.

“Raising taxes is pretty much the last thing that this government ever wanted to do or ever intended to do,” said Collins, with a nod to the 25-per-cent reduction in income taxes announced by the Liberals on their first day in office.

The sales tax increase would remain in place for almost three years. The boost in tobacco taxes and premiums remain in place to this day, compounded by subse-quent increases.

The Liberals then legislated an end to the still-uncompleted arbitration process, ensuring the interim award would be the end of McEachern’s generosity to the prov-ince’s doctors. By government reckoning, the windfall amounted to an average of al-most $50,000 annually for each of the prov-ince’s 8,000 or so doctors.

The Liberals also gained a profound dislike for arbitration, an attitude very much on display in their response Friday to the latest from the B.C. Teachers’ Feder-ation.

“We’ve seen the history of that in this province where it has significantly impact-ed taxpayers in a negative way,” said Peter Fassbender, dismissing the BCTF call for a limited form of arbitration in its dispute with government.

A reference to the 2002 experience with doctors? “Exactly,” replied Fassbender. “That was a case where the experience in binding arbitration was not one that served the province of B.C. and the taxpayers.”

Never again, in other words. And so the strike continues.

Ice buried in Kennewick Kootenay winless in pre-season after rough trip to Tri-City

Taylor rocc aSports Editor

It was a rough week-end for the Kootenay Ice in Kennewick, Wa. as the team dropped both of its final WHL exhibi-tion contests in the Tri-City area.

Friday afternoon, it was the Portland Win-terhawks scraping out a 5-3 victory over the Ice. Saturday afternoon, it was the Everett Silver-tips burying the Ice 8-2.

“The biggest thing

we want to make sure we’re doing this week in practice, from [what we saw on] the weekend, is being competitive in one-on-one situations,” said Ice head coach Ryan McGill over the phone following the Sat-urday’s loss. “I think we have a little bit of a ways to go in that with some of our guys.

“We need to teach them that to play in this league you have to be ultra-competitive when you’re battling for loose pucks and trying to get position on people.”

The Ice fell to 0-3-0 in pre-season action this year, including Thurs-day’s 5-4 loss at the hands of the Tri-City Americans.

In Kootenay’s final pre-season game in Kennewick, the Silver-tips jumped out to a 4-0 lead through 20 minutes of play and never looked back.

Kohl Bauml tallied the third marker for the Silvertips in the first pe-riod. It would stand as the game-winning goal as Everett cruised to vic-tory.

Jayden Sittler faced the flurry between the pipes from start to finish Saturday afternoon, al-lowing eight goals on 31 shots for Kootenay.

At the other end of the rink, Austin Lotz and Mario Petit split crease time with Lotz

turning aside all 11 shots he faced. Petit sur-rendered two goals on the six shots directed his way.

According to McGill, Sittler fell victim to a bad bounce on the first goal, a result of a quick change of puck possession.

“You’ve got to be ready when the puck is in the zone at all times, whether you have pos-session or not,” McGill said. “It was a flukey goal.

“As a goaltender, you’ve got to have real thick skin. You’ve got to move on quickly and re-focus so you’re not put-ting yourself in position to lose your confidence.”

McGill’s plan prior to the start of the weekend was to play each of his three netminders for one full game each, which is exactly the plan he stuck to. Unfortunately for Sit-tler, that made Saturday a long day.

Friday evening, Kee-lan Williams earned the start between the pipes for the Ice who fell be-hind in similar fashion against the Portland Winterhawks.

Trailing 4-1, Koote-nay staged a late-game comeback that ulti-mately came up just short. The Winterhawks got away with a 5-3 vic-tory after Oliver Bjork-strand added a late empty-net goal.

Williams stopped 27

of 31 shots in the contest.“He was square to

the puck, he made some solid saves,” McGill said of Williams Friday eve-ning. “He is a big guy in the net and looked com-fortable.”

The team will prac-tice this week at Western Financial Place in prepa-ration for two final exhi-bition games in the Crowsnest Pass this weekend.

Friday, Sept. 12, the Ice head to Blairmore, Alta. where they will face the Lethbridge Hurricanes at 7 p.m.

The team closes out the 2014 WHL pre-sea-son Sunday, Sept. 14 at 2 p.m. in Blairmore against the Calgary Hit-men.

The Hitmen are 2-2-0 thus far in the 2014 WHL pre-season.

The team’s first loss came Aug. 29 in Regina, as the Pats slipped past the Hitmen 6-5. On Sat-urday, Calgary hosted Medicine Hat and the Tigers escaped with a 4-2 victory.

The Hitmen’s two losses have been offset by two victories, one of monumental propor-tions.

The Prince Albert Raiders visited Calgary Aug. 30 and were thumped 12-3 by the hosts. Calgary then rode that momentum to a 5-3 victory in Lethbridge Sept. 5.

Kimberley Dynamiters goaltender Tyson Brouwer fights through a screen to make a save during the second period of Saturday’s KIJHL pre-season game against the Fernie Ghostriders at the Kimberley Civic Centre.

Tangled up in KimberleyDynamiters and Ghostriders battle to draw Saturday night

Taylor rocc aSports Editor

The Kimberley Dy-namiters and Fernie Ghostriders battled to a 3-3 draw Saturday night in KIJHL pre-season ac-tion at the Kimberley Civic Centre.

The game marked the second in 48 hours between the two Eddie Mountain Division ri-vals after the Nitros edged the Ghostriders 5-2 at the Fernie Memo-rial Arena Friday night.

“We came out kind of flat,” said Kimberley head coach Jerry Bancks following the Saturday affair. “We had some players that had played three games in four nights and it kind of showed. I thought we played well in the third period, though they got a goal. But I think we played more our game.

“I’m happy with where we’re at. I saw lots of growth as a team over the three nights and that’s what you hope for in exhibition games.”

Veteran forward Jason Richter opened the scoring in the first period with a quick shot that slipped through the arm of Ghostriders net-minder Brandon Young-son.

The Nitros lead didn’t last long as Tayler Sincennes knotted things 1-1 with a break-away effort that eluded

Kimberley goaltender Tyson Brouwer.

The two teams ex-changed goals in the sec-ond period before Dyna-miters forward Marco Campanella restored Kimberley’s lead late in the frame.

The veteran forward also added an assist in the contest.

“[The Ghostriders] are really exciting to play,” Campanella said Saturday night. “You definitely cannot play bad. You definitely get fired up.”

With 6:40 remaining in the third period, Sin-cennes added his sec-ond of the night, going high glove over Brouwer to knot the game 3-3.

Despite the tie game, the Nitros outshot the Ghostriders by a final tally of 31 to 17 on the evening.

Tyson Brouwer went the distance in net for Kimberley, while Youngson and Jeff Orser split duties for the Ghostriders.

Though he didn’t suit up in Saturday’s tilt after being suspended Friday night in Fernie, 17-year-old forward Coy Prevost was returned to the team from the Sas-katoon Blades late this week, adding further depth to a Dynamiters roster boasting plenty of talent up front.

“I’ve known Coy since [he was in] Grade

6,” Bancks said. “We’re going to be a younger team. He’s a very mature 17-year-old. He’s physi-cally strong, powerful. He’s going to help us a lot.”

Next up, the Dyna-miters travel to Inver-mere Monday night to face the Columbia Val-ley Rockies in the final pre-season tune up of 2014.

According to Bancks, the team plans to reas-sign players following Monday’s game. The goal is to pare the roster down to 22 bodies ahead of the KIJHL reg-ular season opener Sat-urday, Sept. 13 against the Creston Valley Thunder Cats in Kim-berley. As it stands, with the addition of Prevost, the Nitros are carrying 28 players.

The Dynamiters and Rockies previously opened the exhibition season Sept. 3 in Kim-berley. It was all Dyna-miters in that one, as the home team knocked around the visitors en route to a 6-1 victory.

“If we win that game big, we’re going to have lots of confidence going into the season,” Cam-panella said.

“[It’s going to take] hard compete. Bear down, win battles [and] play hard.”

Puck drop in Inver-mere is slated for 7:30 p.m.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) If what you say is not get-ting through to someone, use your logic and try a different

approach. You might need to speak in simpler terms. Adapt to last-minute changes that pop up from out of the blue. Screen calls if you find yourself feeling overloaded. Tonight: Make it easy. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Your ideas might fall flat right now. Be concerned about a money matter, but try not to make any decisions or commit-ments right now, as the results might not be as beneficial as you would like. Refuse to take any risks. Tonight: Make it your treat. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) The Full Moon in your sign points to your energy. Many people could be stressed out and asking for your help. Listen to feedback from a friend or loved one. Be willing to pitch in. A little extra effort will make all the difference. Tonight: All eyes turn to you.

Dear Annie: My daughter, “Nina,” suffers from depression. Recently, I went to Seat-tle to help Nina and her husband move to Texas. It was our family’s hope that I could get her to come back east with me to get her mental health issues straightened out. Nina was diagnosed with depression when she was in high school. When she is on adequate amounts of an antidepressant, she is a vibrant, intelligent, caring “normal” person. Lately, it has become obvious to us and also to her friends that she is depressed again. But our son-in-law insists that her depression is situational and will clear up on its own. He says she is running away from her adult responsibilities by taking antidepressants. We worry that Nina’s depression is not being treated and believe this is emotional abuse. Her husband has threatened that if she stays with us, he will divorce her. We are trying to keep in contact, but Nina’s hus-band won’t allow her to travel by herself, and he certainly has no interest in spending family holidays with us after that last visit. What can we do? My son thinks we may never see Nina again. -- Concerned Mom Dear Mom: Your son-in-law has it exactly backward. Those who commit to an effec-tive program of antidepressants are trying very hard to take “adult responsibility” for their behavior. By encouraging Nina to dis-regard what is in her best interests, he is putting her life at risk. Unfortunately, with-out Nina’s cooperation, there is little you can do. It’s also possible that your son-in-law truly believes the move was the main con-tributing factor to Nina’s depression, and he may change his tune if the depression doesn’t lift. Don’t let your son-in-law dic-tate how often you stay in touch with Nina. Your calls and visits are important. Mean-while, please contact NAMI (nami.org) at 1-800-950-NAMI and ask about their Fami-ly-to-Family program. Dear Annie: I have recently attended a number of excessively long weddings. They begin with the ceremony, followed by an extended cocktail hour while the bridal party takes pictures, followed by dinner and then dancing. Even if we leave right af-ter dinner is served, we’ve spent at least six hours at these events. While I am excited to celebrate with the bride and groom, this is a lot to ask of a guest. I try to be patient, but by the end of the evening, I’m usually frustrated by what feels like indifference to the guests’ enjoy-ment. Are there rules that wedding plan-ners could use when arranging the festivi-ties? -- Jay Dear Jay: Wedding planners can only ad-vise the bride and groom, and the best ones will keep the couple apprised of the tim-ing. Couples who take photographs before the ceremony begins can shave an hour or more off the time, but some traditions keep couples from seeing each other until they walk down the aisle. The bottom line is, the couple may want the festivities to last through the night, but you are not obligated to stay any longer than you are comfortable doing. If that means you leave before din-ner is served, so be it. Dear Annie: I have yet one more perspec-tive on why someone might let oneself be fat. I have long realized that not only did I not want to be ogled by men, but I was also trying to increase my substance in the world. Always feeling small and insignifi-cant, I felt I needed to “have some weight to throw around.” I was never abused, but I always felt shy, passed over and unimportant. I wanted to feel “bigger.” I couldn’t get taller, so I increased my body size. I felt better as I got bigger. I liked it. But I do realize that I should go to therapy to find another way to achieve those feelings. -- Big Girl Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitch-ell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Approximately 11 Canadians will end their lives by suicide today. Each year suicide claims the lives of more than 3,500 people

in Canada. Here in B.C. we lose an average of 501 people a year due to suicide. The effects of suicide can be devastating to our communities and our families. Suicide prevention is a shared responsibility - we all have the potential to make a difference and save a life.

“Connecting Canada” is the theme for this year’s World Suicide Prevention Day on September 10. The campaign highlights that being connected with oneself, with others, and with a community is critical to hopefulness and wellbeing. World Suicide Prevention day is a time to remember that we are all connected to each other, through shared experiences and hope.

“Everyone can bene� t from the help and support of their family, friends, and community during dif� cult times,” said Jenny Green, Community Health Facilitator with Interior Health. “Many suicides are preventable. Suicide prevention begins with our willingness to recognize the signs of suicide and talk openly about it. Once you have a feeling that someone might be thinking about suicide, it is important to ask them as directly, clearly, and as soon as possible.”

Green stresses that a meaningful connection with another person can be very powerful. “Sometimes just a few genuine words of concern and active listening can create an open discussion about suicide and encourage an at risk person to seek help. You can make a big difference.”

Preventing suicide through community and connection

If someone you know is feeling suicidal, help is available. The Interior Crisis Line Network provides Interior Health residents with around-the-clock access to telephone support. The toll-free number is 1-888-353-CARE (2273). Assistance is also available through local mental health and substance use services, family physicians, emergency services and through web-based supports such as Crisis Centre (http://www.crisiscentre.bc.ca).

In the month of September events will take place across Canada and around the world to promote suicide awareness and prevention. Attend an event near you to help shine a light on this important issue and send a message of hope and connection to those in need.

Cranbrook will be celebrating its � rst annual World Suicide Awareness and Prevention Day at Rotary Park on Wednesday, September 10th from 3pm to 7pm. Live music, Zumba, guest speakers, food, special craft activities to honor loved ones and information booths will all be part of the day’s activities. Come on out and connect with members of our community on September 10th. This Cranbrook event is taking place thanks to the partnership between the Canadian Mental Health Association of the Kootenays, Safe Communities Cranbrook and our generous sponsors.
