A police pursuit of a suspect in a Sicamous armed robbery Friday afternoon ended in gunshots on a property in Canoe.

The RCMP Independent Inves-tigations Office (IIO) has taken over the investigation of events following the pursuit that resulted in an adult male suspect being transported to hospital for treat-ment of serious gunshot injuries. Police say the suspect was shot by an RCMP dog handler, who was also injured in the confronta-

tion, and was taken to hospital for treatment of unspecified injuries.

The shooting concluded the pursuit, which began on July 3 at 5 p.m., after Sicamous RCMP responded to a report of an armed robbery at a gas station. Police say the suspect fled the scene by vehicle – a compact blue SUV with Nova Scotia plates, report-edly stolen out of Saskatchewan.

Police were able to locate the vehicle, and eventually the sus-pect, after a 911 call was made around 5:30 p.m. by Canoe resi-dent Joyce Skinner.

As events were unfolding in

Sicamous, Skinner was watching TV in her home along the Trans-Canada Highway just south of Salmon Arm Go-Karts.

Skinner said her eyes were drawn to her living room win-dow when several police vehicles with lights flashing drove past her home towards Sicamous. She told her husband Glenn about this a little while later when he called to say he’d be home from work in about 15 minutes.

“So I was sitting there and all of a sudden I saw this flash going

down our driveway,” said Joyce. “I thought, ‘jeez, that was aw-ful fast, him getting home.’ So I walked into the kitchen where I could see where he always parks his truck beside my car, but there was no truck there.”

Skinner said she then went outside and found a car parked at the end of her drive-way, right before a treed embankment that leads to Canoe Creek. She said the car had Nova Scotia plates, and she initially guessed the driver to be a tourist who was lost.

When she heard someone running down the embank-ment, she yelled, “what are you doing?” She received no reply, and was quickly com-pelled to return to her home, lock the door and call Glenn.

“She told me some strange car just bar-relled down the drive-way and the guy jumped out of the car and ran into the creek,” said Glenn. “So I drove home and about two minutes later, I pinned the car in with my truck so he couldn’t get away. I didn’t know what was going on… She phoned 911 and I went in the bush looking for him.”

Inside her house, Joyce was talking to the 911 dispatcher, and was informed the car on her property was the one police were looking for. Minutes later, RCMP vehicles were parked at the end

of her driveway, with officers laying down a spike belt and shouting at the Skinners to join them immediately.

“They’re yelling at him, they’ve got their vests on, guns and rifles,” said Joyce. “Glenn says, ‘Joyce, you’ve got to come.’ I’m in my pyjamas for number one, I’ve got a cane and our driveway is long. And they’re all waving their arms try-ing to get us to come to the driveway.”

Upon joining the of-ficers, Joyce said she and Glenn learned of the robbery and were told the suspect was armed with a gun.

Moments later the property and neigh-bourhood were sur-rounded by marked and unmarked police vehicles, and highway traffic was blocked as police conducted their search on the ground and by helicopter.

Joyce estimates she and Glenn were stand-ing on the side of the highway for about two hours before gunshots were fired.

Glenn said he heard two. Another Canoe

resident who lives near the Skinners told the Observer she heard five.

Joyce said police had located the suspect hiding in a shed on an adjacent property.

“The guy will be OK, I do know that and I’m allowed to say that. The police offi-cer, he’s fine too,” said Joyce.

A police officer re-mained on the Skin-ner’s property until 4 p.m. the following day when an IIO Forensic Specialist arrived on the scene.

Joyce said she and Glenn were inter-viewed separately by police as part of the investigation, and they’ve been told not to divulge certain de-tails related to the in-vestigation.

Despite being in the middle of such an in-tense situation, Glenn and Joyce said they’re not particularly phased by the experience.

“It happened so quickly – it was almost like it was a little movie or something…,” said Joyce, still recognizing how fortunate she and

Glenn were. “The head police officer who was here after everything was done, the one who interviewed us, he said it could have been a whole different scenario by you go-ing outside. That guy

could have still been standing there and it could have been a lot different. Because he had a gun, right.”

The IIO continues to investigate the shoot-ing, while local RCMP investigate the robbery.

Former Shuswap MLA George Abbott is no longer a member of the BC Liberal Party.

“This is a something I have been thinking about for a while,” he said, pointing out most people are not mem-bers of political parties and he was simply not renewing his member-ship.

“If I am going to be a member of a politi-cal party, I want to be excited, interested and engaged but I do not find myself being any of those things in the world of politics.”

Abbott did admit that the government’s 11th hour cancellation of his appointment as chief commissioner to the BC Treaty Commis-sion was the final piece in his decision to not renew his membership.

Abbott held several senior cabinet posts during his 17 years as Shuswap MLA, in-cluding health, edu-cation and aboriginal portfolios from 2001 to 2004 and 2010 to 2011.

He retired from gov-ernment in 2013 fol-lowing an unsuccessful bid for leader of the

party and began pursu-ing his PhD at the Uni-versity of Victoria.

Last fall, John Rus-tad, Minister for Ab-original Relations and Reconciliation, asked Abbott to assume the role of chief commis-sioner of the BC Treaty Commission upon the retirement of Sophie

Pierre on April 1.Excited by the pros-

pect of taking on lead-ership of a process he cares deeply about, and an appointment that had garnered First Na-tions’ support, Abbott was advised on March 18 that the govern-ment was moving in a new direction and his services were not re-quired.

“I remain entirely puzzled as to what the new direction is that the premier was talk-ing about in April,”

he says, noting he has never been given an explanation about what that new direction is or why his appoint-ment would have been inconsistent with that direction. “It remains troubling to me that it was done without a lot of consideration of a policy in what I con-sider to be an important area. There’s more to it than that.”

Academically Ab-bott has a second set of comprehensive exams in October and a 200-page dissertation on the provincial govern-ment during the 2001- to-2012 Campbell era to write.

An article he has written on the introduc-tion of the harmonized sales tax in B.C. and Ontario will appear this summer in BC Studies, a quarterly publica-tion dedicated to the exploration of British Columbia’s cultural, economic and political life, past and present.

“I suspect I will be non-partisan for the balance of my life…” he says. “I’m on a dif-ferent track now, po-litical science, and I do public policy work, so I actually think it’s an advantage to not have

that partisan involve-ment.”

Aftermath: RCMP officers discuss the events that led to a two-vehicle crash on High-way 97A just south of the intersection of Highway 97B on Wednesday, July 1.

Crash leaves three injured

Three people were taken to hospital with non-life threaten-ing injuries following a motor-vehicle accident at the junction of Highways 97A and 97B out-side of Enderby last Wednesday.

Enderby RCMP report that

an eastbound car, driven by a Salmon Arm woman, was un-able to negotiate the corner at the bottom of the Highway 97B hill near Baird Brothers Ltd. and collided with a northbound pick-up truck from North Da-kota on Highway 97A.

A family member states that loose gravel on the corner from

recent heavy rains was the cause. The accident occurred about noon on Canada Day.

A couple in the truck, along with the driver, were taken to hospital to have their injuries treated.

Traffic was re-routed around the accident scene for several hours as RCMP investigated.

The Shuswap is a tinder box and rain, if it comes, is several days away.

Despite high to ex-treme conditions and the fire ban that went into effect Friday, a property owner up Parkhill Road near 60th Avenue and 35th Street NE set a fire to clean up his property on Monday.

Luckily, a passerby saw the smoke and flames and called 911.

The Salmon Arm Fire Department’s halls 1, 2 and 3 responded at 2:11 p.m. and quickly doused the flames. But fire chief Brad Shirley says he can’t believe ev-eryone is not aware of the fire ban.

“I just shake my head. I am baffled as to why people are oblivious to this,” he says, noting the fire had the potential to burn a lot of property. “The worst part is, he wasn’t even tending to it. He was in the house.”

Meanwhile, thunder-storms June 29 and 30 produced 10,000 light-ning strikes in the Kam-

loops Fire Centre, with pop-up fires making their appearance over the weekend.

Fire information of-ficer Kaela Pepper says most of the hits were in the Upper Seymour River, with one small one in Perry River. All were less than a hectare.

Rapattack crews were sent in to attack the re-mote fires and helped the Scotch Creek Fire Department with a blaze in Lower Scotch Creek on Sunday night.

Air patrols are being flown every day where the main lightning sys-tem went through.

A fire located on the south side of Mt. Ida at the beginning of last week was just 0.5 hect-ares and is now com-pletely out.

“There are no fires of any size,” says Pepper. “But we still picked up at least seven human-caused fires over the weekend.”

Fire wardens are also patrolling during the campfire ban. Fines for lighting a campfire are $345 per person and penalties for starting a wildfire can be $10,000 and up to a year in jail. And you may be re-quired to pay all fire-

fighting costs.Meteorologist Lisa

Coldwells says the smoke blanketing the Shuswap is from a wild-fire in Pemberton.

She says a small weather disturbance due to arrive Saturday morning looks like it could bring some show-er activity to the eastern part of the province.

If the smoke allows temperatures to climb to the 35C forecast for Wednesday, it would tie a record set in 1968. Thursday’s forecast for 37C would break the old record of 36.7C set in 1975.

Temperatures extremeCaution urged: Resident oblivious to ban sets fire.

Limited visibility: The air surrounding Salmon Arm has been thick with smoke, obscuring views of surrounding mountains.

Open Burning/Campfire Ban: As of Friday, July 3, 2015, 12:00 noon, the City of Salmon Arm has banned all open burning including; campfires, fireworks and tiki torches until further notice as per Bylaw No. 1538, Part 2.6(2). Permitted fires are limited to natural gas or propane outdoor appliances used for cooking, warmth or light and such appliances must be equipped with spark arresters. Permits for all fires are mandatory and can be purchased at City Hall or Fire Hall #3 (downtown).This open fire ban is in effect to protect public safety and to limit the risk of person-caused wildfires.

Barbecue Safety: The Fire Department would like to remind residents to be safe when a barbecue is in use. Whether it is a charcoal or propane grill, residents are urged to exercise caution this summer. To be safe, first check for leaks. Leave the barbecue valve off and the cylinder valve on. Spread a soapy solution on all the fittings and the hose. If bubbles appear, you have a leak and must repair or replace the parts before using the grill again. Make sure to check the valves for rust as well. Please ensure your barbecue is at least 1 metre away from fences and other combustible materials, and never leave your barbecue unattended.Heat or flames from a barbeque can ignite nearby vegetation, wood, vinyl siding, paper towels and similar items. • Barbecue with safety in mind.• Keep barbecues a safe distance from anything combustible. • Keep young children and pets away from barbecues.

Editorial

Not romantic like the show tune, “Smoke gets in your eyes,” smoke is also getting in your nose and your trachea and your lungs.

The smoke currently blanketing the Shuswap is coming from Pemberton, north of Whistler.

The extreme forest fire hazard rating requires specific, urgent action from all citizens, but also a more global awareness. The urgent action required is to be acutely aware of what can start a fire and to use extreme caution outdoors.

Discarded cigarette butts are a no-brainer, but unfortunately people still throw them out of vehi-cle windows or leave them burning on the ground. Mirrors, glass and plastic all have the ability to start fires when left where they can magnify the sun’s rays. A spark from a machine is also enough

to ignite a flame. The more widespread awareness needed is one

to which people with asthma and other breathing difficulties are acutely attuned.

We humans are entirely dependent on the earth – for the air we breathe and, of course, the water we drink, the food we eat. It’s easy to forget this when we can spend our days in air-conditioned buildings and buy our water in plastic bottles.

Every decision we as individuals and our politi-cal leaders make should focus first and foremost on this fact. Is what we’re doing sustaining or preserving the planet and us?

The smoke-filled skies are an ‘in-your-face’ reminder of how imperative it is to cherish and nurture this incredible planet.

Smoke forces focus on priority

Festival work worth itA sea of arms and legs – that is the vivid memory seared into

my brain after my first visit to the annual Canada Day Children’s Festival.

My own children were too old for the event when we moved to Salmon Arm in 1992, so I had no idea what to expect.

Having been told the Children’s Festival Society was desper-ately short of volunteers, I agreed to make an initial commitment to a two-hour shift.

I was assigned to the pirate ship bouncy house that had one “ladder” in the middle, with a slide on either side.

What a popular place!For the next two hours, I did not have time to look beyond

legs, arms, faces – some delightfully painted, and feet to make sure they were without shoes.

An occasional arm would shoot up the ladder to grab a child who was making a run for it rather than returning to the end of a very long lineup – a lineup that sometimes stalled while I made sure there were no collisions on my watch.

There was only one heart-stopping moment. It came when a tall, young lad bounced so high at the top of the slide, he was within an inch of going over the side.

I was impressed with the patience and great behaviour of both parents and children. My only real challenge was in telling the little people which slide to take when they couldn’t differentiate between right and left.

Time passed quickly and after my shift, I strolled around the site enjoying the atmosphere and the many activities. A number of games challenged young players and earned them rewards. Industrious children were hammering happily away on odd piec-es of wood, creating items from their imagination.

Kenthen Thomas enthralled his audience with an aboriginal tale about how night and day came to be and DJ Patrick Ryley kept the energy up in between times. The dunk tank was a popu-lar place, with Mayor Nancy Cooper landing in the water close to 20 times.

The arena was a great refuge from the heat and offered more activities, fine dancing by students from local studios and a silent auction that raised $4,000 for next year’s festival. Prior to this year’s event, organizers Kari Wilkinson and Karen Bubola had to put out an urgent plea for volunteers.

This is an awesome festival that attracts between 4,500 to 5,000 people. It’s free, accessible and a lot of work to organize.

Co-ordinators are grateful to volunteers who stepped up this year and Bubola says ideas are already bubbling for next year and, in particular, 2017, when Canada celebrates 150 years of nationhood.

Bubola and Wilkinson work incredibly hard and they deserve to know they will have ample support.

It’s a fun place to be and so worth seeing families having fun together. So, I am putting my money where my mouth is and committing to being back next year. Will you join me?

View PointThe Observer asked: Should Salmon Arm host Canada Day fireworks?

Rick Moe “Yeah, I think so. It’s just a good idea to have fireworks on Canada Day.”

Vicki Krahn “For sure, it’s a Canada Day tradition, and it’s a family affair.”

Amanda Sims “Absolutely, because fireworks are awesome. It’s lame that we don’t have any.”

David Lockie “Yes, all the smaller surrounding communities have fireworks. So should we.”

Chris Renn “Yeah, it would be great to bring back the fireworks to town.”

Better remedies for highway problemsThe proposed $120 million highway

improvement project revealed on June 24th is an insult to the collective intelli-gence of the citizens of Salmon Arm.

Do we need improvements to Highway #1 in our area? Undoubtedly. But this proposed great palaver of underpasses, traffic circles and frontage roads is a grand smokescreen for the REAL prob-lem, the fact that this same highway runs directly through the heart of our beautiful

downtown with little oversight of traffic violations which occur with frightening regularity.

Just try sitting for a while in a window seat at our popular local bar and grill at the corner of Shuswap Street and the TCH and watch the transports run red lights and tailgate drivers obeying the speed limits.

If the ministry responsible for highway safety were to really be thinking of safe-

ty, it would be looking for long overdue ways to correct the situation through the heart of the town.

Reminds me of the old pickpocket trick. You know, the one where thieves work in pairs. One distracts, while the other robs you blind.

But we’re too smart to be fooled by that.

Remember Canada’s whole truth

Current focus on military might misguidedCanada’s flag turned 50 this year, with

very little fanfare. Nothing compared to the blitz of television ads about wars that Canada won before it was even a country, warships making tight turns, zooming jet fighters, and soldiers bristling with arma-ment jumping out of airplanes. All this propaganda promotes present Conservative government policy, thinly disguised as pub-lic service information, and is even narrated by people that sound remarkably like Ste-phen Harper.

Things were different when Lester Pear-son’s government brought us our new flag. (As well as the Canada Pension Plan, uni-versal health care, student loans, and keep-ing us out of the Vietnam war). Pearson involved Canada greatly in international affairs, supported and promoted the United Nations, and won the Nobel Peace Prize for helping to resolve the Suez crisis. Travel-ling Canadians sewed flags to their packs, knowing Canada had a positive global repu-tation, happy to be recognized as Canucks.

My grandchildren are of prime cannon-fodder age.

If they were to take risks in the service of our country, I would much prefer they were wearing the blue helmet of the United Na-tions, keeping the peace somewhere, rather than adding another puff of wind to the hur-ricane of death and destruction that we are now helping the United States inflict on the world.

Nation should maintain international aid spendingWith so many things to see and do in

summer, an upcoming national election may be the furthest thing from our minds. However, some of us might find that we have more time on our hands - an excel-lent opportunity to ask our local MPs about their party’s platform. I, for one, want to know which party will commit to getting us closer to the goal of 0.7 per cent of Gross National Income (GNI) for inter-national aid spending. Please note that 0.7 per cent is less than one per cent! Can we not find it in our hearts and in our pockets

to give those less fortunate a hand-up? Our aid contributions stand at just 0.24

per cent of GNI, and have dropped from $5.65 billion in 2012, to $5 billion in 2013, to $4.2 billion in 2014. Meanwhile, the UK has passed a bill that enshrines in law its commitment to spend 0.7 per cent of its GNI on aid every year, making it the first G7 country to meet the UN’s 45-year-old aid spending target. In 2013, only five other countries – Sweden, Norway, Lux-embourg, Denmark and the United Arab Emirates – had met or exceeded the 0.7

per cent aid spending target. The Nether-lands had consistently met the target, but fell short in 2013. Canada must prioritize international development by committing to increasing our aid spending to 0.7 per cent of our Gross National Income by the year 2020. Do a little research so you are armed for that fall election or, better yet, let your MP know your thoughts while he or she is home enjoying those hazy, lazy days of summer.

Re: Sinkhole of Canadian money.Stupid, gullible, ignorant – that best de-

scribes us Canadians! Why? For decade after decade we have al-

lowed personally selected greedy vultures to bilk the country of huge funds for their own personal gain.

Think of how all that would have bene-fitted both health care and education. Edu-cation? You bet we need it after allowing these dinosaurs to bleed the country for so long.

What is the purpose of elections when appointed senators can overrule decisions

Robert Burns said, “O would some power the gift to give us, to see ourselves as others see us.”

That is precisely what President Obama offered to the human race in his eulogy for Clementa Pinckney. I would encourage every-one to read it from beginning to end.

What has been happening in the U.S. since the beginning of the slave trade, has been hap-pening in Canada since 1763. The basic differ-ence is that we have been doing it more subtly. And yes I mean right here in Salmon Arm.

We settlers are living on traditional Shus-wap Nation territory, with the people from three reserves – Neskonlith, Adams Lake and Little Shuswap. We are neighbours living as if we were two solitudes. There are more than a dozen so-called Christian churches who it seems have a strange understanding of “love your neighbour as yourself.” Could it be, that nobody told them that you have to practise what you preach?

Alcoholics Anonymous encourages those addicted to alcohol to admit they are alcohol-ics. That is the first step in the process of re-covery. Could it be that we settlers are addict-ed to a lie, i.e. “This country belongs to us.”

In the wake of Canada Day, let us come clean by admitting the whole truth about how Canada came into being as is outlined on the Canada in the Making website, ‘Aboriginals: Treaties & Relations.’

Rabbinical Wisdom: How do you know when the night has ended, and the day begins? “You know, when you can look into the face of your neighbour, and see there a brother or sister; until you can do that, whatever time of the day it is, it is still night.”

Peace, Dan MacQuarrie


FROM THE

Archives

1925 Interested parents were seeking the formation in the high school of a fourth year. The entry age to normal school was 18 years and to univer-sity 16 years, and pupils were completing their third year high school at 15 or 16. It was realized that to add the fourth year would mean engaging an additional teach-er, but it was understood the government would put up $560 toward the salary and the remaining sum, about $1,200, would have to be provided by district council, city council and parents.

1935 Gasoline prices were way down. A gallon cost 18.5 cents including tax, and it was expected prices would go lower.

1945 Further enhancing the already attractive appearance of the prem-ises, a marquee was being installed by C.R. Beer in the front of his ladies’ and men’s wear store on Alexander Avenue.

1955 Salmon Arm’s new swimming pool was taking shape on the property at the rear of city hall. The reinforced concrete structure was be-ing built under the supervision of Thomas Calvert.The city’s appropriation of $100 for mosquito control was practically all spent, Alderman E.R. Spence, chairman of health, reported. The work was being done by Robert Fenton.After hitting a mark of 13.5 inches, the level of Shuswap Lake had hit the 1955 peak and was dropping.It was announced there was a possibil-ity the North Shuswap area would get electric power. Any extension of the B.C. Power Commission’s lines to the district would depend on whether the residents were prepared to sign an agreement to pay the minimum monthly charge required for service.

LIFE & TIMES

Make no mistake, Sherrie Favell is a war-rior.

Eight years ago, the community booster was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer.

Surgery and six months of chemotherapy later, Favell was told she was cancer free.

But in early June, she received the devas-tating news that the cancer has come back in the form of three tumours – one just below her stomach, one above her spleen and an-other in her abdomen, as well as in lymph nodes in her neck.

Now diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, Fa-vell is facing this new battle with courage, honesty and humour – and an urgent plea to others to listen to their bodies and go to the doctor if they feel something is amiss.

“I urge women, if they have lower abdom-inal pain, to ask for CA125 – it’s a simple blood test,” she says, noting ovarian cancer is often referred to as the silent killer.

Following treatment for her � rst bout with the disease, Favell had checkups every three months, either in Vernon or Vancouver.

When she hit the � ve-year mark and was declared cancer free, checkups were reduced to every six months.

Jubilation turned to concern last year when blood tests revealed an increase in her cancer markers.

After being between eight and 10, well within the normal range of zero to 34, the markers began to increase and her doctor or-dered a laparoscopy.

“The cancer hadn’t come back, but my bowel had moved,” she says, noting the numbers were slowly climbing and she be-gan suffering “vibrating pain” in her abdo-men. “In November it started jumping a bit. Then a couple of months ago it hit the mark-er 34 and the next blood test at three weeks went way over.”

An ultrasound revealed nothing but a CT scan picked up two tumours, news that Dr. Ken Upton was distressed to deliver.

“I just love Dr. Upton. We stood there and hugged and I said, ‘don’t worry, Dr. Upton,

it’s going to be all right,’” she says. “He cares for his patients as does his wife, Colleen (nurse and medical of� ce assistant).”

Upton faxed her records to Vancouver clearly marked urgent, but when no informa-tion was forthcoming in three weeks, Favell, who had held off telling her mom she was back on the battle line so she could enjoy a trip without worry, got on the phone.

“It doesn’t matter what happens to me, but this is messing with my mom and nobody messes with my mom,” she said. “The pa-perwork got lost in the shuf� e the � rst time and I said ‘not this time!’”

A PET scan was performed in early June and Favell has high praise for the treatment she received at the BC Cancer Agency in Vancouver.”

“Once you get in there, they treat you so good,” she says. “I’m not trying to knock the system; it’s just frustrating when you’re on this side of the tracks and you’re waiting.”

Last Tuesday, two days before the � rst round of chemo, one older drug and one newer, Favell had her hair cut, donating sev-eral inches to Wigs For Kids. “I donated be-cause of what children have to go through,” she says. “They shouldn’t have to go through this and they cry because they don’t like how they look.”

Caring about children is nothing new. For many years Favell has raised funds for Re-lay for Life and run annual events in support of Variety The Children’s Charity, including auctions where she was very successful in

talking people into opening their wallets.She has also held fundraisers for friends in

need of a helping hand.Favell loves her job at McGuire Lake

Lodge and says she became very depressed last time, in part she believes, because she was unable to work.

This time, she is determined to stay on the job as much as possible. But Favell is not sure how the chemo will affect her.

So, close friend Liz Anderson has created a GoFundMe account to provide Favell with a measure of � nancial security over the next six months.

“My new saying is, ‘it’s too bad the world wasn’t measured in friendship instead of money, because then I’d be a friggin’ billion-aire,’” she says tearfully of the support that is already pouring in. “It’s good that we caught it this early and hopefully I’ll respond well and get another eight years.”

Those who wish to help Favell may go to gofundme/yevja8. Those who do not have access to the Internet may mail or drop a cheque off at Anderson’s of� ce – Harbour-front Massage, 140 Harbourfront Dr. NE, Salmon Arm, V1E 2T3.

Favell is proud of her First Nations heri-tage on her dad’s side and got a large tattoo of an original design native knife on her right leg to show she had conquered cancer.

A member of Saskatchewan’s Kawa-catoose Nation, she is already planning the tomahawk tattoo she will get when this next battle has been won.

Big heart: Recently diagnosed with recurring cancer, Sherrie Favell has her hair measured by stylist Jackie Winter to donate towards a children’s wig.

Trees topped discus-sion among city coun-cillors deliberating a development proposed for Harbourfront Drive.

At Monday’s devel-opment and planning meeting, council ap-proved the develop-ment permit for three fourplex buildings of 12 residential units at 131 Harbourfront Dr. NE. Issuance of the per-

mit is subject to official community plan and zoning amendments approvals, receipt of an irrevocable letter of credit for a landscaping plan and confirmation by a qualified environ-mental professional that construction and “ripar-ian planting” will be monitored for compli-ance with riparian regu-lations. The latter two requirements would address the 13 willow

trees that currently align the foreshore portion of the property.

Coun. Ken Jamie-son noted residents are concerned the trees will be removed. City development services director Kevin Pearson said the trees are near-ing 90 years in age. He said the city’s arborist has confirmed they are not critical to riparian habitat but do represent a safety hazard.

“We all love trees, but in this case we have to make an objective decision rather than an emotional one,” com-mented Coun. Alan Harrison, who recom-mended a covenant stating the willow trees are the property own-er’s responsibility and, if removed, they be replaced with suitable trees indigenous to the area.

The applicant, Mar-

vin Skjerpen, said the trees would not be re-moved all at once, but in three development phases, the first of which he hopes to start this fall.

“We would never go in and take out all the trees,” said Skjerpen. “At the end of the day it’s unfortunate they have to come out, but truly they are a danger and it’s something we’ll have to deal with.”

The school district is moving to a new build-ing later this summer, and they are working on getting all the of-fices filled.

Secretary Treasurer Sterling Olson has given notice to the district that he will be resigning his position

and moving to School District #22 in Vernon in August.

Olson was front and centre with designing preliminary budgets that involved trustees needing to cut more than $1.7 million from the upcoming year’s budget.

The school district has currently posted the job and the board of trustees is looking for a replacement.

Watering restrictions remain status quo

Sterling Olson

Sec. treaSurer

Olson gives notice

Brown is the new green this summer as far as lawns go in Salm-on Arm.

At Monday’s mu-nicipal development and planning meeting, council and staff dis-cussed whether or not there is a need to extend city watering restric-tions.

In short, the answer was no – and yes.

Engineering and pub-lic works director Rob Niewenhuizen reported the city’s water treat-ment plant is currently running a little below average. Normally, he said, when tempera-tures are high, the plant produced up to 26

megaltires a day. Cur-rently, it’s producing 18. However, Niewenhui-zen noted water use is higher than he’d like to see on Mondays, when the city’s water reserves

are replenished.Coun. Ken Jamieson

said there are a lot of Salmon Arm residents who are conscientious about water use and suggested the mayor

thank the public for fol-lowing the city’s sprin-kling restrictions.

“I think maybe a thank you to the public would be a good way of reminding everybody

that we need to use wa-ter responsibly,” said Ja-mieson.

Watering restrictions have been in effect since May 15, and run to Sept. 15. Sprinkling

is allowed on designat-ed days between 7 and 11 a.m. and 7 and 11 p.m., Tuesday to Sun-day. Watering days are designated by the last two address numbers as

follows: 00-33 – Tues-day and Friday; 34-66 – Wednesday and Sat-urday; 67-99 – Thurs-day and Sunday. Those found failing to comply may be fined.

The Shuswap Outlaws are Prince George bound, to com-pete for the midget provincial title. Or are they?

Two weeks ago, the Out-laws hoisted the Thompson Okanagan Minor Box Lacrosse League title, qualifying for the zone championships against the Nicola Valley Thunder.

After handily defeating the Merritt-based team in two games of their best-of-three series, the Outlaws seemed poised to head to provincials, which start July 22.

In Game 1, the Outlaws eas-ily won 11-2 in Merritt.

The return game at the Shaw Centre was a closer contest.

After scoring the first goal in the first two minutes of the game, Shuswap fell behind 3-1 before the end of the first pe-riod.

The Outlaws stormed back, scoring a couple of quick goals and knotting the game at three.

Soon after Shuswap turned the game on its head and even-

tually won 5-4.After the loss the Nicola Val-

ley club submitted an official protest to the B.C. box lacrosse governing body. As a result of the undisclosed protest, the Outlaws are not cleared to head to provincials. The league is expected to hand down a deci-sion by the end of the week.

Outlaws ransack Thunder

Evan BuhlEr/OBSerVer

under pressure: The Shuswap Outlaws’ Ethan Dodge, right, avoids a check by the Nicola Valley Thunder’s Caleb Hartwig in the Zone Championship at the Shaw Centre on Sunday, July 5. The Outlaws won 5-4.

It may be the off season in the BCHL, but the Silverbacks brass isn’t waiting for the start of the season to become more competitive. In the past two weeks, general manager, Troy Mick has made two moves to bolster the ’Backs blueline with two sizeable defensive signings.

The soon to be 19-year-old Brett Stewart comes from the Alberni Valley Bulldogs.

Stewart is a big 6’1 195 pound of-fensive blueliner who just completed his second full year in the BCHL and had career numbers this past season. In 57 games played last year he had 12

goals and 25 assists for a total of 37 points.“Brett will be a big part of our D core this

coming season.“He is a very good all-round player who

plays the game the right way. A tough two-way physical defenceman with offensive skills are not easily to come by anymore and we are thrilled that he is now a Silver-back,” stated Mick.

Last week, Mick also signed 6’3, 218 pound right shot defenceman from Long Beach, N.Y., Aidan Salerno, from the Buf-falo Jr. Sabres of the Ontario Junior Hock-ey League.

The Silverbacks main camp will get un-der way on Aug. 23, at the Shaw Centre.

Speedster Sim to represent CanadaShe has represented

her club, high school, province and now Gly-nis Sim is poised to represent Canada on the world stage.

Sim is one of 47 Ca-nadian track and field athletes, under the age of 18, who will rep-resent the maple leaf at the International Association of Athlet-ics Federations World Youth Championships to be held July 15-19 in Cali, Colombia.

“I still don’t feel like it has really sunk in yet. I expect it will hit me soon because I’m leav-ing on July 9th,” says Sim.

She qualified for the IAAF World Youth Championships with the fastest time across the nation in the 2,000-metre steeple-chase, finishing nearly 18 seconds ahead of her nearest rival with

a time of 6:51:57 and setting a new personal best in the process.

Sim received the ex-citing news of being named to the Canadian team two days after the 2015 Langley Pa-cific Invitational Meet, which was held on June 19-21.

“I am so proud to be able to represent Cana-da at such a prestigious event. We [Canada] don’t really stand out in track and field, so it will be exciting to show other countries what we can do.”

She knows this will be the toughest com-petition she has ever faced. And she doesn’t plan to leave anything up to chance in her goal of reaching the finals in the steeplechase event.

The competition will start for Sim with heats on July 15 and with the top five from each heat moving on to the final.

Two days later, the

gazelle-like runner ex-pects herself to be com-peting in the final.

Sim says she will be running against the fastest runners in the world and is up to the challenge.

“Some of the top girls in the world are 40 seconds faster than me, but I just want to run faster than I ever have before. And if I do that, I will be happy,” she says.

For the six days lead-ing up to the event, Sim will spend time stick-ing to a regimented

training schedule, and adjusting to the high elevation of Cali.

“It will be interesting to see how the eleva-tion will affect me.”

She is hopeful that her six- or seven-day-a-week training sched-ule that varies between running and circuit training will have her prepared enough so the elevation won’t be a factor.

After taking a break from steeplechase, Sim will be back at it, say-ing it is a lot more fun than just running be-cause of the obstacles.

Her father, Richard Sim, says she does most of her training on her own, which he says takes a lot of determi-nation and self motiva-tion. Along with repre-senting Canada for the first time, this will be the 17-year-old speed-sters first time outside of North America.

She says she is eager

to immerse herself in a new culture and to see a bit of the world.

“I have taken three years of Spanish in high school, but I still don’t think I’m that good. We’ll have to wait and see if it’s paid off once I’m there,” Sim says with a laugh.

Also representing the Okanagan region is vernon’s Hannah Ben-nison, competing in the 3,000-m event, and Sean Bergman from Kelowna competing in the boy’s 2,000-m event.

“Even though I won’t have my family there, it will be nice to see some familiar faces,” says Sim.

She will be starting Grade 12 in the fall and has already been approached by the University of British Columbia and Simon Fraser University about running for them on a scholarship.

It was a family af-fair at the annual Mer-ritt Otter Invitational Swim Meet for the Salmon Arm Sockeyes.

The pair of Calkins brothers, Max and Sam, were each first- time aggregate winners and earned bronze ag-gregate medals.

Not to be outdone, the siblings from the Moore family also had an impressive showing.

In division two, Eric Moore took the gold for the boys, while sis-ter Julianne took the gold for the girls, and Stephen placed third for the boys in the fourth division.

The Sockeyes com-peted against teams from the Okanagan and coastal regions.

All Sockeyes showed great focus and determination throughout their races, improving both tech-nical aspects and their personal bests.

Individual aggre-gates were awarded to swimmers in each di-

vision who scored the most points over the course of the weekend.

In division three boys, Rowan Trow earned gold while teammate Matthew Bushell earned silver.

Keeya Corbett

earned second place in division four girls.

In division five girls, Claire Hall placed sec-ond while teammate Emma Levins took third.

Over on the boys’ side, Tyler Bushell

placed second. For division six

boys, Matthew Nes-doly placed first while Gaelyn Gilliam took second.

Brayden Gilliam earned gold in division seven boys.

The Sockeyes have returned home, and are gearing up for an intense week of train-ing, as they embrace the most challenging week of training this summer.

Jujitsu students haul in medalsMembers of the

North Okanagan Shus-wap Brazilian Ju-jitsu (NOS BJJ ) team picked up where they left off after their last tournament.

The group of fighters from Salmon Arm won six medals upon return-ing from the Canadian Brazilian Jujitsu Fed-eration Western Cham-pionships in Penticton last weekend.

Coached by Mario Deveault, NOS BJJ placed third in the kids team division, an in-credible feat due to the small size of the school compared to the other training schools com-peting in the Western Canada tournament.

In the grey belt U8 division, Cole Maybee won a gold medal.

Ty Bailey won gold and silver medals in the junior division, while brother Tristen Bailey won silver and bronze in the pewee division.

Hayden Lazar won bronze in the junior grey belt division.

Grace Lazar followed

in her older brother’s footsteps, competing in her first competitive

tournament in Pentic-ton. Although she did not medal, she proved

that she will be a force to be reckoned with in the future.

TODAY’S ANSWERSCrossword

He endured a coach-ing change, scored six goals, was a healthy scratch a few times, earned loads of key playoff ice, won 50 per cent of his faceoffs against Sidney Crosby and took a break to cap-tain Canada to a world junior hockey gold medal.

Oh, and he made the TSN Plays of the Night for eating a hamburger thrown on the ice in honour of Ottawa Sena-tors teammate Andrew Hammond.

Year one in the NHL featured a little bit of everything for ever-smiling Curtis Lazar, who began his hockey career in Salmon Arm.

“Highs and lows, a roller-coaster ride,” summed up the 20-year-old forward. “You have to pinch yourself too because you get to the point where this is the pinnacle of hockey, this is every kid’s dream to make it to the NHL. For me, to do it at the age of 19 was pretty cool.

“You don’t know what to expect going in. Lots of trial and er-ror. You’re going to fail some days, you’re go-ing to succeed the oth-ers, but you learn pretty quick what it takes to play in the league and what it’s all about. You get treated like gold off the ice.”

Lazar, whose birth-day is in February, fin-ished with 15 points, 14 penalty minutes and was a plus-1. He knows bigger stats will come in time and he’s putting the work in this sum-mer to get faster and stronger.

“I’m renting an apart-ment in Kelowna for the summer and I’ll be working with a trainer and skating with other NHL guys (CNC Cen-

tre). It will be kind of cool this summer be-cause they’ll know who I am.”

That perma-grin you saw Lazar wear with the Memorial Cup champion Edmonton Oil Kings is still there with the Senators.

“I know you’re out there playing with men and guys are a little bit older, but inside we’re all boys at heart. And it’s no different than any teams you have in minor hockey growing up, or junior. We’re out there having fun, play-ing the game we love, and it’s tough to beat. I wanna enjoy it all and soak it up.”

A first-round draft pick – 17th overall – of the Sens two years ago, Lazar compares his sta-tus to veteran Kings’ captain Dustin Brown, who was chosen 13th overall by Los Angeles in 2003.

“Dustin Brown had one goal and five points (31 games) his rookie year with L.A. and played some in the AHL,” said Lazar. “If I can follow in his foot-steps, I’d be happy.”

Brown, who plays a similar physical style to

Lazar, has since regis-tered five 20-plus goal seasons, including a 33-snipe show.

Lazar loved playing for Paul MacLean and was sad to see him get fired as head coach in early December.

“Coach MacLean, he was awesome to me right off the bat, he really helped me out getting my feet wet in the NHL. It was a real eye-opener seeing a move like that happen so early in the season. Coach (Dave) Cameron came in and he was kind of the good assis-tant coach that every-one went to, so he had to change a little bit and we knew that.

“He had a couple of animated freakouts on the bench during TV timeouts but you could see how poised he is throughout he playoffs. There is never a sense of panic with him and that rubbed off on our team. Even being down 3-0 to Montreal, we still knew we had a chance and we kept on clawing away. Unfortunately, Carey Price (of the Ca-nadiens) was out there. It’s a good spot to be in, knowing Dave Cam-

eron is gonna be back next year. It’s a big sense of confidence for our group.”

Robbed of a goal that was clearly his early in his rookie campaign, Lazar registered his first NHL goal Dec. 15 against the Sabres, a typical whack-and-hack in the crease beauty. He finished the second half strong, pocketing three goals in a week as the Sens went on a fabulous run to make the playoffs.

“I saw big strides in my game after the world juniors. I was more con-fident out there finding a home with (Jean-Gabriel) Pageau and (Erik) Condra. When you get familiar on the ice and comfortable, it does help you out. You can play more of your game. The run we went on with (Hammond) The Hamburglar and just the way we fought our way into the play-offs, it was a season I’ll never forget.

“I think we got the people of Ottawa ex-cited, and even around the league, people are taking note that the Ot-tawa Senators are not pushovers anymore.”

A season of ups and downs

Hop aboard Car 2426 and take a CP Rail trip to Notch Hill circa 1890 with R.J. Haney Heritage Park and Museum’s Villains and Vittles Dinner Theatre.

Playwright/director Peter Blacklock has created another winning production with The Everlasting Railway Blues.

As always, he has managed to weave in-teresting nuggets of local history through a well-developed and amusing storyline.

When the railway drove in the last spike in 1885, did it stay in place, or did someone switch it out?

How disappointed was the landowner who bought a large parcel of land in Sun-nybrae because he believed CP Rail would follow through on a plan to build a railway bridge across the lake from Canoe – more than 100 years ago?

Did Agnes, the wife of Canada’s � rst prime minister, ride the rails on a cow catcher at the front of the train so she could enjoy the scenery?

Meet Billy Miner, the habitual thief who came to B.C. to rob trains when stagecoaches went out of vogue during one of his stays in California’s San Quentin Penitentiary.

Find out where he died after drinking swamp water while on the run from another prison.

There’s much more to learn, accompa-nied by musical numbers, with the audi-ence invited to join in one of the songs.

“The topic for the dinner theatre is al-ways related in some way to the museum display that Deborah and her crew put to-gether,” says Blacklock of curator Debo-

rah Chapman’s new railway exhibition. “I research the topic to come up with interest-ing facts and bits of information and then try to include them in the story.”

Blacklock says the story is drafted prior to auditions, then redrafted to � t the skill set of the players. Songs come out of the situations of the play, becoming an integral part of the storyline.

As well as creating an enjoyable production, Blacklock has shown a talent for casting.

Emmy Sim, David Wray, Joy Peters and Alaura Bibby perform well together and on their own.

Sim, is a 2014 Salmon Arm Secondary grad with a year of psychology at Simon Fraser University completed.

She’ll be heading back to Vancouver in the fall, this time to Simon Fraser’s Contemporary School of Arts.

Not yet sure of what career path she wishes to follow, Sim has decided to see where theatre studies take her. In the meantime, the talented 19-year-old is enjoying being aboard The Everlasting Railway Blues.

“It’s fun. I like to get into different characters and the play is historically rich,” she says, applauding Salmon Arm Secondary’s drama program. “It’s very fun and very wel-coming to anyone who wants to try theatre. No matter how

outgoing or quiet you are, there’s a place for you.”

Also playing multiple characters, David Wray is back in Salmon Arm after teaching in Taiwan for two years and entering a Futures Studies program in Finland. The program brings together people from several differ-ent specialties such as an-thropology, education, law and political life to help plan for businesses and citizens to create better or preferred futures.

Wray is planning to create, appear in and direct a televi-sion production, combining his love of education, acting,

travel, people and technology.

“I’ve been at Haney before and loved working here, the prop-erty and learning about the history. One of the things we’re taught is you have to un-derstand the past to orient the present, to better help determine the future,” says the 2008 SAS grad, who credits former teacher

Cathy Hay with igniting his passion for theatre. “This show is fun. Peter is an excellent director and the cast is brilliant,” he says.

The two other members of the show include Joy Peters, who will be heading to UVic to pursue a degree in the-atre, and Alaura Bibby, who recently returned from theatre school in Alberta.

While the play is de� nitely an integral part of the eve-ning, the dinner is extremely popular with patrons of the family friendly show. A delicious roast pork dinner is served prior to the show and a mouth-watering rhubarb crisp follows the play. Wine is available for purchase.

The show runs Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays with check-in at 5:30 p.m. and dinner is served at 6. Reserva-tions are a must and can be made at 250-832-5243. For more information on R.J. Haney Heritage Village and Mu-seum at www.salmonarmmuseum.org.

Three days of playsshuswap Theatre will

be humming with activ-ity for three days at the end of July.

Theatre on the edge, an exciting new event, will provide theatrego-ers with a weekend of short plays, live music, and a rich and stimulat-ing café atmosphere.

The stage will be alive from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. with five perfor-mances a day and seven different shows to see.

“In between perfor-mances, theatregoers can enjoy music, deli-cious food and licensed drinks on the patio,” says organizer Jaci Me-tivier.

Four shuswap the-atre artists are on the schedule. Nina Dick-ins is offering Bed Among the Lentils, her solo play about a quiet churchman’s wife with a surprising secret. Ju-

lia body is directing the dark comedy, A Bench at the Edge, Peter blacklock’s A Very Silly Love Story concerns two people, a shipwreck and a bad case of amne-sia. Calvin White will present his show, The Question Is ..., an unset-tling look at an individ-ual’s search for purpose, previously performed at the vancouver Fringe Festival.

Three out-of-town companies round out the program. Kelowna’s Fred skeleton Theatre will bring their produc-tion of Christie in Love, an intense drama about serial killer John Chris-tie.

saucy Fops from Kamloops is bringing their new play Back and Forth and Back, and Ka-trina Kadoski is touring her musical play Cou-gar Annie Tales about

the life of a legendary pioneer and vancouver Island postmistress.

“It’s a fantastic col-lection of great theatre that we have lined up,” says shuswap Theatre president Joyce Hen-derson.

“our local theatre art-ists are taking the oppor-tunity to try something new – such as moving a show to a higher level, or taking on something they might not other-wise try.”

“All the shows are about 40 to 60 minutes,” says Metivier. “And we’re hoping to make this an annual event.”

Tickets and informa-tion about artists and schedules are avail-able on Facebook or at www.shuswapthe-atre.com. single tickets are $10, with three, five and seven show passes available.

experiment: Jaci Metivier stands in what will become an out-door cafe during Theatre on the Edge, running July 24 to 26.

Sounds of summerSinger-songwriter Jonah August performs at the Ross Street Plaza as part of the weekly Lunch Box Stage summer series on Friday, July 3.


Innovative exhibition opensThis saturday, the salmon

Arm Art Gallery welcomes in-ternationally renowned artists Janet Cardiff and George bures-Miller with an opening reception at 7 p.m.

The artists present two signifi-cant works: experiment in F# Minor (2013), a mixed-media sound installation, and The Mu-riel Lake Incident 1999), a cin-ematic installation.

“This is a rare opportunity to see and experience contempo-rary Canadian art in an intimate setting in the b.C. Interior,” says curator Tracey Kutschker.

• Experiment in F# Minor on a large table sits a collection of bare speakers of all shapes

and sizes. Light sensors are in-laid into the edge of the table and as the viewers move around the room, their shadows cause the various sound and instrumental tracks to fade up and overlap, mingle and fade down.

Numerous viewers in the room create a cacophony of mu-sical compositions that vary ac-cording to where the audience walks or how many people are in the room. When the space is empty, the table fades to silence.

• The Muriel Lake IncidentThe visitor stands in front

of a large wooden box look-ing through a rectangular open-ing to see a miniature model of a cinema with grey, empty rows

of seats, and a small projection screen onto which a film is be-ing projected.

Listening on a pair of head-phones they hear the three-dimensional (binaural) sounds of the film, a woman next to them talking and eating pop-corn and a surprise ending in-cluding a gunshot and a fright-ened audience.

More information is available at www.salmonarmartscentre.ca/cardiffmiller. The artists will make a public presentation at 2 p.m. sunday, July 12 at the salmar Classic Theatre. Admis-sion is by donation. summer gal-lery hours are Tuesday to satur-day, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Thank you from CMHA Shuswap/ Revelstoke Ride Don’t HideWe would like to give an enormous thank you to the many people who came out to support the Shuswap/Revelstoke Ride Don’t Hide on June 21st 2015. With-out your dedication, enthusiasm, and commitment, this would not have been possible.� is year, 4,744 riders from 27 communities across Canada came together to celebrate mental health and together we raised over $1.1 Million for Canadian Mental Health Association programs and services that support not only the 1 in 5 experiencing a mental illness, but all Canadians working to improve mental health for themselves, their loved ones and their communities. Here in Salmon Arm, our Shuswap-Revelstoke ride went o� without a hitch. It was a little brisk � rst thing but the sun did arrive in time to shine on our riders! � ere were 86 riders who registered to ride in 1 of 3 routes (10km, 32km or 54km). Our ride raised nearly $14,000.00 to support local mental health pro-grams here in the Shuswap!Ride Don’t Hide’s growth, year a� er year, shows the shi� ing public view towards mental illness and the growing awareness that mental health programs are essen-tial to a healthy society. � ank you for being a part of that change. � ank you to all our riders, donors, sponsors and volunteers for an amazing Ride Don’t Hide 2015, and we can’t wait to see you for the next Ride Don’t Hide in 2016!

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Relationships will be challenging on Monday and Tuesday. Expect loved ones to be defensive and colleagues, clients or customers to be more demanding than usual. Then the mid-week Mars/Neptune trine encourages you to help a family member who’s going through a rough patch, as you focus on improving communication at Casa Aries. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Busy Bulls - the stars favour contributing your talents and helping out within your local community, as you assist someone in need. It’s also a wonderful week to socialise with family and friends [and participate in some lively and stimulating conversations] as Mercury joins the Sun and Mars in your communication zone. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Incoming funds are in a state of flux so the more disciplined, flexible and proactive you are, the more manageable your finances will be. With Mercury [your ruling planet] moving into your cash zone, it’s a terrific time to improve your financial literacy through study or via the mentorship of someone who is smart and savvy with money. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Calm down Crabs! You won’t get far with others if you are needy, moody or over-emotional. Instead, do your best to balance head and heart; intellect and intuition. You’ll feel more rational and less subjective than usual, so it’s a fantastic period to enrol in an educational course or complete a study project.LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): With Venus and Jupiter both visiting your sign, you’re in the mood to mix and mingle; text and tweet; socialise and circulate to the max. But will others be happy to hear what you’ve got to say? Monday and Tuesday’s tempestuous stars highlight your inclination to jealous, possessive or overbearing behaviour. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Relations with a child, teenager or friend may be strained. The more you try to organise them, the worse things will be so avoid getting drawn into pointless power-plays. The best way you can help loved ones ATM is to support them in practical ways, as they pursue their ambitions and follow their dreams. Criticism is out, and encouragement is in!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Expect some dramas as the Sun and Pluto stir up old grievances with a family member or work colleague. By all means use your diplomatic talents to help find solutions but, if you sit back and let others make decisions, then you’ll just feel paralyzed and powerless. Strive to be more self-sufficient – especially at work and home. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The stars boost your personal magnetism – and your manipulative side. Pluto gives you an energy surge that increases your desire to be in charge but, if you want to avoid power struggles and unpleasant dramas, then stop trying to control others. You’ve got a choice! You can be powerful and passionate – or compulsive and controlling. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): There may be some stress involving money or intimacy, as the stars stir up your lust and loot zones. So be patient with your partner; be careful with cash and credit; and think things through before lending money to others [because you may not get it back!] CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Conscientious Capricorn - your perfectionist side is likely to go into overdrive early in the week. But others may find your standards far too demanding and, if you push too hard [with a current or potential partner] then you’ll just end up pushing them away. Things improve from mid-week onwards, when Mercury shifts into your relationship zone.AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): YHey Aquarius - avoid getting drawn into pointless disputes with family and friends. This week will work best if you keep your nose out of others people’s business, and concentrate on pursuing personal projects. The mid-week Mars/Neptune trine is terrific for experiencing fiery bursts of creative inspiration.PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): If you’re involved with a group, club or organization, then expect power plays and personality clashes. Your creativity and intuition fire up mid-week, as you take an abstract idea and turn it into a golden reality. But, if your inner voice tells you something [or someone] isn’t the real deal, then make sure you act on that information.

He was an ardent fly fisherman, spending the winter months tying flies and testing them on the waters in the area as many days of the week as the weather and his health allowed. He enjoyed nothing more than passingthis tradition and knowledge on to his family andfriends, enjoying every trip he made when they could accompany him. Jim looked forward to his yearlycamping trip to the Kootenays with his sons and grandsons, planning and shopping for weeks ahead.For years he returned to Roy, Montana to take hisDad on their yearly fishing/camping trip.

With great sadness we accept the passing ofour wonderful mother, Barbara Ellen Bruce (neeSpencer). Barbara’s peaceful, final moments were lovingly attended by both her children. She spent her final seven months in the care of the professionalstaff at Bastion Place, Salmon Arm. There truly are angels who walk amongst us. Barbara was 94years old and suffered with Parkinson’s disease.

Predeceased by her three sisters LouiseNewbury, Trudy Felton and Ann Williamson aswell as her brother John Spencer, Barbara will be lovingly remembered by her Son, Andrew Bruce, his wife Jody Bruce, and granddaughter GingerBruce of Kelowna, as well as Barbara’s daughter, Kathleen Bruce of Sorrento. She leaves behind Brother, Victor Spencer of West Vancouver, Sister,Diana Dyer of Ottawa, several nieces, nephewsand many friends - notably, Dr. Kristen Kornienko,whose compassionate care enabled Mom to stay at home as long as possible.

Barbara was an academic who appreciatedmusic, visual arts, history, literature and journalism.Mom was accepted to study piano at the RoyalConservatory of Music in London, but could notattend due to the outbreak of the Second World War. She took English classes at Radcliff/ Harvardfor two years plus a summer, and completedher degree at UBC at home in Vancouver. She was assistant city editor of the Vancouver SunNews Paper during the war and a member of theCanadian Women’s Press Club. Post war, Barbara went to the interior of BC to act as managingdirector for one of her father’s cattle ranches, the Circle S Cattle Company, Dog Creek. There shemet and married our dad, Lawrence Bruce (pre-deceased 2008) They ranched in Pritchard, BCbefore moving to Kelowna to raise their family.

She was nominated as a Member of the Senate of the University of British Columbia foryears 1963 – 1966.

Surprisingly shy and reclusive, Barbara was compassionate, empathetic, loving and strong.She abhorred cruelty, stood up for what shebelieved in and spoke her mind. She had terrificcourage and faith.

Mom’s departure from this life has left a hollow place in ours but our hearts are full of beautifulmemories. We give thanks for her loving, knowledgeable influence and guidance, and we accept with joyous gratitude, Mom’s blessedrelease to a higher existence.
