Thursday was moving day for a pair of ospreys in Salm-on Arm.

Because an osprey nest at 10th Avenue and Fifth Street SW at the entrance to the fairgrounds was at risk of catching � re, BC Hydro moved it onto a specialized platform.

Arne Langston, BC Hydro’s natural resource specialist, said ospreys tend to build nests on power poles because of their height and structure, which usually in-cludes two parallel beams at the very top that the birds can wedge their sticks between. However, the nests are at se-rious risk of catching � re.

“We have to look out for the safety of those birds and that’s why we have to move them sometimes; we don’t really have a choice,” Langs-ton said. “It would be a lot harder to � x if there was a problem.”

The nest on 10th Avenue SW and 5th Street SW was sitting on conductors that would spark the nest if it were to rain, possibly killing the birds and putting people out of power for several hours, she said.

BC Hydro monitors sever-al ospreys to make sure they do not build their nests on power poles. Once the nest is established, BC Hydro cannot destroy it because the birds are provincially pro-tected.

At that point the Crown corporation has to install specialized platforms next to the original location.

If the nest is not estab-lished and is at the earli-

est stages they are able to remove it, hoping the � sh hawks will start building in a tree instead.

BC Hydro tries to monitor the birds closely enough to

catch them before they estab-lish their nests, says Langs-ton, but the birds can build a nest in a couple of days.

BC Hydro sometimes puts triangular � bre glass protec-

tors over power poles that ospreys are trying to nest on.

Langston says it’s impor-tant for residents to under-stand that BC Hydro is not destroying established nests.

A grey morning on the lake got a lot darker for one Calgary woman Saturday.

Millie Barron was on Shuswap Lake between Wild Rose Bay and Anglemont when the engine died and, taking on water, the boat started sink-ing.

“I was way out and I began whistling and screaming,” Barron says. “I was standing on top of the inboard motor, I was totally panicking.”

Fortunately for Barron, a young boy on the beach heard her screams and told nearby adults.

The adults were Triton Docks owner Don Lauzon and one of his customers, Anglemont property owner Jevon Bennato.

The men took Lauzon’s 24-foot pontoon boat with an onboard winch out to Barron.

And while Lauzon towed the boat to shore, Bennato jumped on-board to � gure out what was going on.

“The boat had died and there was about six inches of water in it,” says Lauzon, pointing out the line off the water pump intake was sucking water straight out of the lake into the boat. “The bilge wasn’t working and that was making the problem that much worse.”

Lauzon beached the boat at the Anglemont Marina – Barron’s original destination – and he and Bennato got a portable bilge pump going, got the engine running again and called her hus-band to come and get her.

“She was extremely grateful,” said Lauzon, laughing off hero status. “It’s one of those things, someone’s in trouble, you just deal with it. I guess it was lucky, because there were no other boats in the area.”

But Barron believes the people who took part in her rescue are heroes.

“I’m lucky to be alive, the way I look at it,” she said Tuesday from her Calgary home. “They to-tally downplayed it, but they saved me and they need to be recognized for their efforts.”

Heroes: Victim insists two men saved her life.

See Air horn on page A2

Barron and her fam-ily have been coming to their Eagle Bay cabin for 20 years.

When the engine failed, she was taking their newly purchased boat, which is stored in Wild Rose Bay, to

Anglemont Marina for a pre-season check-up.

“I will never go out on the water in spring again; if I can’t swim in it, I won’t go on it,” she says with conviction, noting she is an avid water fan.

And while the family boat has all the neces-

sary emergency equip-ment, Barron has advice for other boaters, advice she has acted upon her-self:

“Forget the whistle, get an air horn, ’cause nobody can hear a whistle when the boat motors are running,” she says.

Students create mock crash

An overturned ve-hicle with young people trapped underneath, a driver taken away in handcuffs, blood and injuries and death.

Grade 12 students at Salmon Arm Second-ary experienced the real deal when it comes to impaired driving. Teacher Stanley Koro-luk’s Law 12 class ran a mock impaired driving crash on Thursday, May 16 that had emergency units responding as if they were at the scene of a real accident.

The class is filming a commercial to deter people from drinking and driving, focusing on events surrounding grad. The mock ac-cident is one among many scenes the class has filmed for the com-mercial they hope will be aired on TV.

Ben’s Towing pro-vided a damaged truck which was safely rolled over into the ditch on 10th Avenue SW. Three students climbed into the overturned cab while one student lay deathly still next to a pole a few feet from the vehicle’s front end, just as a person ejected from the vehicle would.

The camera started rolling and Salmon Arm Rescue Unit, four para-

medics, a police officer and a coroner all arrived on scene, sirens blaring.

The students expe-rienced every step of a real crash from being removed from the ve-hicle with the Jaws of Life to getting rushed away in an ambulance. The authenticity of the scene, with students painted with ‘blood,’ had onlookers looking worried.

“The decision was made by the class as well as all the emergen-cy services that were here, that they would film the entire scene and roll with it the way they would in a real-life collision,” said Const. Mike Dibblee. “Every-thing they did here to-day is what they would do at a collision.”

Dibblee pitched the commercial idea to the Law 12 class as another way to deter impaired driving. The class was enthusiastic and created the story line, which de-picts an impaired driver leaving a grad party, leading to the death of a passenger who is not wearing a seat belt.

Student Jackson Calvert was one of the ‘surviving’ passengers, and was the first to be removed from the truck by the rescue unit and paramedics.

“It was kind of scary, I really couldn’t see

anything,” Calvert said. “They had my head covered up and every-thing, and all I was hearing was popping, and I felt myself kind of being jerked around. It was scary. It has really made me aware of what actually goes on. It’s not just someone crashes and someone gets hurt. There’s serious implica-tions.”

The students have been working on the commercial since the end of March and will be done within the next two weeks.

“I’m hoping that they learn more from doing this than they can get from class and lecture,” said Koroluk. “It covers 10 of the chapters that we have to deal with and just the practical application of what they saw and what we went

through and what the implications were, will

hopefully teach them not to drink and drive.”


Impaired: Grad turns disastrous in scenario.

Frighteningly real: Police and the coroner pretend to keep a distraught grad student away from her deceased friend who was thrown out of a truck during the mock accident.

Gas leak halts work

Shopping centre leak: A worker surveys the area surrounding the spot, in foreground, where machinery caused a gas leak at the SmartCentres construction site.

Construction machinery caused a gas leak at the SmartCentres construction site last Wednesday.

FortisBC reports that a crew was sum-moned to 2521 Trans-Canada Highway about 9 a.m. Wednesday in response to a natural gas leak. A second crew from Ka-mloops joined the Salmon Arm crew later that day and the leak was deemed under control at 4:30 p.m.

Crews decided to conduct a bypass and reroute the gas, allowing them to repair the line without shutting off the gas com-pletely to avoid affecting 168 customers. Six customers were still affected and gas was restored to them at 6:30 p.m., Fortis reports.

The gas was blowing clear and dissipat-ing into the atmosphere, as there was noth-ing blocking it. FortisBC spokesperson Michael Allison said this is the safest situ-ation possible.

“We always want to promote safe dig-ging practices,” Allison noted. “I’m not sure what happened in this case, but I know that 90 per cent of all damages can be prevented if people follow safe excava-tion practices.”

Fire department units were on scene as a precaution in case anything went wrong.

Charges of danger-ous driving under the criminal code and sev-eral motor vehicle acci-dent offences are being sought against a male driver from Chase.

Witnesses told police the driver of a Mazda was driving erratically at a high rate of speed before being involved in a two-vehicle collision near the intersection of the Trans-Canada Highway and Balmoral Road.

RCMP responded to

the accident about 8:17 a.m. Friday, May 17.

An uninjured man was trapped inside a Ford truck, which was attached to a trailer. The Mazda sustained major front-end damage.

Both drivers were transported to hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries.

Take-downA 34-year-old

Salmon Arm resident believed to be wanted

on seven outstanding warrants was taken into custody follow-ing a brief struggle on the evening of Sunday, May 19.

Police located the man, who is wanted for various offences, in the 3800 block of Okana-gan Avenue SE at 9:15 p.m.

Police say the man initially provided a false name, but on be-ing found out, tried to flee and then fight with arresting officers.

The man, who is well-known to police, is facing additional charges of obstruction and has been remanded to court.

Sicamous is wel-coming the Summer Stomp & Burnout.

The Sicamous and District Chamber of Commerce and the Stomp committee heard positive feed-back at their public fo-rum held May 13.

About 30 people at-tended the town hall meeting to update themselves on the events on July 18 to 21.

“It was 100 per cent positive feedback from the community,” said Steve Hammer, Sum-mer Stomp events chair.

“The community is very accepting and em-bracing the event with open arms.”

The committee and chamber took com-ments, questions and concerns surrounding the Stomp.

Chamber execu-tive director Michelle Wolff said the biggest concern that arose was access to Main Street. Main Street will be

closed to regular traffic Friday and Saturday to accommodate the carnival-style Burn-out event. Traffic will be restricted to bikes, emergency vehicles and necessary traffic for businesses.

“There was a mis-conception that we were shutting down Main Street for four days; it’s technically just slightly over 48 hours, including set up

and tear down,” Wolff said.

Security has been hired. Wolff said orga-nizers want people to feel comfortable with leaving their vehicles downtown.

There will be paid traffic control on standby to assist vol-unteers. Shuttles will be running between downtown and the Stomp grounds at the dog park to allow safe

movement between events. The events downtown are free to attend.

Volunteer sign-up and information for vendors is available online as well as a full list of events for Burnout and Summer Stomp.

“Everybody seems very excited about the whole situation, so it’s been very positive,” Wolff said.

The process to dis-pose of North Okana-gan-Shuswap School District properties is rolling along.

Secretary-treasurer Sterling Olson reported to trustees on Tuesday, May 14 that the dis-trict continues to work through the property disposal process for the six properties which were approved at the April board meeting, and he expects the first request for proposal (for the former Ash-ton Creek Elementary) should be out by the end of May.

The closing date for the six proper-ties, which are Ashton Creek Elementary, the Jackson Annex, Mount Ida School, North Broadview School, the North Canoe annex

and an empty property at 4730 Fifth Ave. SW will be Sept. 12, which will give about three months on the market to see what interest there is for the proper-ties.

Trustee Chris Coers told Olson there had been concerns in her area that it be made clear to potential buy-ers that the playground equipment at Ashton Creek School is not included in the sale. Olson assured her it is spelled out in the request for proposal, which is currently be-ing finalized.

Trustees also gave second, third and final reading to bylaws to allow for the disposal of the school board of-fice and South Canoe Centre.

The process to pro-hibit smoking in all city parks, not just Fletcher Park, has moved an-other step forward. One part of that process may include an opportunity for local creativity.

At city council’s May 13 meeting, council unanimously approved first and second read-ings of a bylaw to ex-pand the smoking pro-hibition.

Corey Paiement, the city’s corporate officer, told council he had re-ceived input from Trish Hill, tobacco reduction co-ordinator with Inte-rior Health, who made three recommenda-tions: 1) council consid-er prohibiting smoking in the future on public lands such as city hall, the Shaw Centre, SAS-CU Recreation Cen-tre and the city public works yard; 2) the city include a prohibition on smoking in future land leases; and 3) the city exempt traditional ab-original cultural use of tobacco – but not non-ceremonial use – from the prohibition.

Coun. Denise Reimer suggested council send a letter to leaseholders letting them know the city is considering a smoking prohibition for the future. That could include such proper-ties as the southern part of the fall fairgrounds leased to the agricul-tural association, the Rod & Gun Club prop-erty in South Canoe and the Salmon Arm Tennis Club property.

The bylaw also rec-ommends eventually putting up a total of 134 no-smoking signs at the entrance to city parks, at a maximum cost of $150 each.

The parks listed as requiring the most signs are Blackburn with 20, McGuire Lake Park with 12, Little Moun-tain park and fields with 12 and Turner Creek Trail with 12.

Coun. Alan Harrison suggested that council take $5,000 from its $20,000 council initia-tives fund to pay for one-quarter of the signs recommended.

“I think staff could take that number and hit the higher traffic areas

in parks.”Coun. Ken Jamieson

suggested the city try some new and innova-tive signs.

“It might be a great opportunity to enlist some of our local in-novators… We can be a bit more creative in ways we advertise and incorporate public art in our landscape.”

Paiement said the standard signs cost less as staff can handle the design.

Coun. Debbie Can-non spoke against changing sign design, noting the additional cost.

“We could look at creativity in other things, but it is a bylaw we’re putting forward. I think we should have

uniform signs.”Kentel agreed. “If we put it out there,

there is usually a time delay. If we miss some-body, we’re in trouble. I think we need to get on with it and do it as eco-nomically as possible. I think we should do it as uniformly as possible.”

Coun. Chad Eliason said signs are generally pretty boring and, as there will be no active enforcement of the by-law, catchy signs could help enforce the mes-sage.

Harrison said one of his favourite signs is the one in the skateboard park.

“I’m not one for go-ing out of the box, but I think Councillor Jamie-son has a pretty good idea,” Harrison said, adding that he would consider amending his motion to $6,250 for the signs to allow for a lo-cal design component. “Maybe the sign could look like a cigarette. I don’t know, I’m not that creative.”

Rob Niewenhuizen, the city’s director of engineering and public works, said one reason for consistency of signs is for easy replacement if they are stolen or van-dalized.

When it came time to vote on the $6,250 for signs and a local design, the motion carried, with Kentel and Cannon op-posed.

A public input ses-sion will be held at an evening council meet-ing before third reading and any amendments are considered.

Parks to kick habit

Editorial

A lot of us apparently just don’t care. Or simply don’t recognize the correlation between our lives and whether we vote in elections.

During this past provincial election, the unof-ficial grand total of about 52 per cent of eligible voters voted. While that number varied in rid-ings from about 39 to 72 per cent (and unoffi-cially about 57 per cent here in the Shuswap), thousands of people, for whatever reason, couldn’t be bothered.

In this election, the percentage of provincial voters dropped a few points from about 55 per cent in 2009.

The difference in the Shuswap over the years is dramatic. In 1991, 76 per cent of eligible

Shuswap voters voted; in 1996, 73 per cent; in 2001, 72 per cent; in 2005, 64 per cent and, in 2009, 57 per cent.

While there are lots of theories on why peo-ple aren’t voting, they remain theories. It’s often been suggested that proportional repre-sentation, which wouldn’t see votes ‘wasted,’ would be key in inducing voters to take to the polls. In this election, for instance, the Liberals took 44.43 per cent of the provincial vote, the NDP 39.49, the Green Party 8 and the Conser-vative Party 4.77.

Whatever the reason for this apathy, it is cru-cial to our province that we determine why and then work to engage the citizens once again.

Shuswap voters dropping out

Not so Super, NaturalIt’s a dirty word in some circles. The ‘E’ word. But really, it ultimately describes us all. It should be unneces-

sary, redundant.“Environmentalist.” To be human is to be an environmentalist, isn’t it? What human

being doesn’t care about having air to breathe and water to drink and food to eat. That’s the environment, as it’s called, and it’s pretty crucial to being human. Other than those rare individuals who have their hopes pinned on Mars, most of us remain inti-mately dependent on the health of the environment.

With the provincial election over and Christy Clark firmly at the helm, the province is going to need many more of its citizens getting in touch with their inner environmentalist. Although our new premier is a parent with a big stake in the long-term future of B.C.’s environment, her stated vision of liquid natural gas fueling the engine of B.C.’s economy is short-sighted and misguided at best. Liquid natural gas sounds clean and good and pure, but the process of fracking is anything but. Along with being a terribly toxic process, it uses huge amounts of fuel – fuel that is growing more scarce by the day and could be better used. And, unlike Vegas, what happens in northern B.C. doesn’t stay in northern B.C. The designer of our wondrous planet made the environment interconnected. Devastation of water, air, plants and animals in northern B.C. will be felt throughout the province.

Most frightening to me, however, perhaps because I grew up two minutes from the ocean on Vancouver Island, are the plans for the Enbridge Northern Gateway Pipelines Project. It is unbe-lievably naive to think there will not be a pipeline leak or a tanker spill. History tells us otherwise, particularly regarding the record of the company in question. Super Natural B.C. will take on a whole new meaning, when our ocean creatures die a tormented death and their well-oiled bodies wash up on shore.

While Ms. Clark has listed her ‘five points’ regarding B.C.’s conditions for the pipeline, the two stating that there must be ‘world-leading marine and land oil spill response, prevention and recovery systems,’ to me, tell the whole story. There will be dam-age. Then there’s the fact the province will rely on the federal review. Meanwhile our prime minister is in the U.S., busily pro-moting the Keystone pipeline, while an Enbridge team of oil spill response surveyors visited B.C.’s Hartley Bay last week. As the saying goes, if you think the federal review is not going to give the nod to the project, then I have a nice piece of pristine wilder-ness near Fort McMurray to sell you.

In this community and across the province, work is ongoing to improve relationships between First Nations and settlers to B.C. Yet here we go again. Coastal First Nations, for instance, are stridently opposed to the Enbridge project, yet that opposition is going unheeded, jeopardizing everything central to their lives.

Of course people need jobs and a way to put food on our plates, but those jobs must not destroy that which sustains us. Now, more than ever, is the time to embrace that inner environmentalist.

Ariss Sutherland“Not particularly, but then again, I don’t follow the polls.”

Duncan Shantz“The NDP did start out with quite a lead, but I wouldn’t have bet on the outcome.”

Margaret Zsadanyi“Yes. The polls certainly got things all wrong.”

Steve Hall“Yes, a little bit. I thought it would be closer.”

Stu Janzen“No. What the NDP needed was their own Christy Clark.”

May is Canada Hospice Month.

On May 5, I was privi-leged to participate in the first of the Hikes for Hos-pice sponsored by the Shus-wap Trail Alliance as a fun-draiser for Shuswap Hospice Society.

The company, the cause, the spectacular view from atop the Enderby Cliffs made it a perfect day.

Hospice is a holistic pal-liative/end-of-life care that ensures symptom manage-ment, physical and emo-tional/spiritual support of the patient and his/her fam-ily. It focuses on caring not curing, living as well as possible to the end. Qual-ity of life, family wellness,

community involvement and personal choice and dignity are all part of the compas-sionate and progressive vi-sion of hospice. Shuswap Hospice Society, a member of B.C and Canada Hospice Palliative Care Associations, is a trained volunteer-run, non-profit organization that for more than 25 years has provided compassionate emotional support to the dy-ing and the bereaved in the Shuswap.

Care/counselling is re-ceived in hospital, home or long-term care facility, free of charge and for as long as needed. As an integral mem-ber of the End-of-Life Care Team, the society is funded by the Interior Health Au-

thority, by memorial, per-sonal or corporate donations and by fundraising events such as the Hikes for Hos-pice.

Are you facing a life-lim-iting illness and/or grieving the loss of a loved one? You are not alone. Shuswap Hos-pice Society can help. For more information, call 250-832-7099 or email: [email protected].

You are more than wel-come to participate in the Shuswap Trail Alliance’s September Hikes for Hos-pice so you can stay healthy, have fun and support a great cause.

BC VIEWS

Tom Fletcher

One benefit of the surprising fourth term for the B.C. Liberal Party is that the pro-vincial government won’t be subjected to another big, expensive ideological remake.

Taxpayers are spared a bill of millions in severance pay for deputy ministers and other senior staff who would be purged in large numbers in the left-right lurch that has defined B.C. politics for a generation.

BC Ferries will continue as an arms-length operation, with ferry commissioner Gord Macatee in charge of service levels as well as fare caps. The service rationaliza-tion that the government set out in the past year will continue.

The NDP platform vowed to “position BC Ferries as an integral part of B.C.’s transportation infrastructure.” Freely trans-lated, that means “suck BC Ferries back into government,” as one of their strident supporters likes to say.

That would conceal the growth of the subsidy and facilitate the kind of political and union interference that resulted in the current structure.

There will be no $10 million rehash of the BC Rail sale and subsequent seven-year trial, to enrich elite lawyers once again.

The NDP promised an inquiry for strict-ly political reasons, to drag their opponents through the scandal one more time. It was not a prelude to “nationalizing” the prov-ince’s train service, dream scenarios of the NDP provincial council notwithstanding.

Costly legal confrontations over devel-opment projects have been avoided. The Jumbo Glacier Resort proponents finally won a 20-year fight for permits, and the NDP promised to take them away.

A larger ideological battle over private power contracts has also been avoided. The B.C. Liberals have been caught by a sudden shift in power markets caused by cheap, abundant natural gas, but the bil-

lions in commitments to independent power producers isn’t the fiasco that critics have described.

If all those privately developed run-of-river hydro projects were owned and op-erated by BC Hydro, the Crown corpora-tion would have to staff them and maintain them all for the next 40 years. There are differing views about the future demand for electricity in B.C., but it can only rise with industry and population growth.

A decade of federal and provincial work to end duplication of environmental assess-ment won’t be undone. NDP leader Adrian Dix’s promise for “made in B.C.” reviews was a strategy to choke resource projects to death under endless procedure, which may yet be the fate of the Jumbo resort.

We will have a Seniors’ Advocate office, but it won’t be staffed up to duplicate the ombudsperson’s role of taking complaints.

That’s good, since the ombudsperson has become ineffective, labouring for years over a massive seniors’ report with so many recommendations it sank like a stone.

We have 85 seniors’ advocates now. They’re called MLAs, and they definitely take complaints. They have staffed offices in their home communities and in Victoria. When they’re not doing political work that everyone denies is going on in constituen-cy offices, those office staffers try to help people through the labyrinth of seniors’ at-home and institutional care.

A new seniors’ advocate can offer advice at the management level to help the health- care system evolve, but only elected politi-cians are positioned to tell individuals they can’t have what they are demanding. The government should be adding more direct services, not more bureaucrats.

There will be many arguments about the failure of the NDP to win against an unpopular B.C. Liberal government that is still weighed down by the harmonized sales tax and other heavy baggage.

This election could be the beginning of the end for the old left-right model for B.C. politics.

Chagrined with Harper legacyLike many Canadians, I

was disappointed to see Ste-phen Harper win a majority in the Canadian Parliament. For the next 10 months our worst fears were realized as he lived up to his election-night boast that “you won’t recognize Canada when I get through.”

Some truth started to ooze from more a cabal than a caucus that clung to him and to power. We started to hear about “robo-calls” and “burn-er cell-phones” and irregu-larities in Etobicoke, and we rationalized that these were the tip of the iceberg.

We started to see a differ-

ent side of CBC darling Tom Flanagan and his attitudes toward sexual exploitation of very young children. Then, to see unrepentant and convict-ed Bruce Carson and his one-third-his-age escort paramour investigated for approaching native people with a deal for potable water.

So my plan of action: I turned 70 on Aug. 15, 2012 and on that day, reflecting on my life, chagrined at what was happening to the coun-try I was born in and amazed at how little protest there was, I had to do something. That something was to walk to Ottawa from Victoria to

hopefully concentrate focus on a government that has a predilection for ignorance of science both physical and so-ciological and a similar predi-lection for all things military, and a willingness to perform crimes against humanity as in Afghanistan where the “Harpercrits” facilitated tor-ture.

On a daily basis, Harper is destroying Canada. He is de-stroying the Supreme Court, the CBC, the RCMP, banks, our election process, the envi-ronment and Canada’s repu-tation world-wide.

Since spoken lan-guage was established tens of thousands of years ago, humans have been sharing their sto-ries.

“For young children, spoken language skills are the foundation for reading, writing and a lot of the academic demands that are go-ing to come,” says Julie Lewis, Interior Health speech and language pathologist. “One in 10 people have a speech or hearing disability that they will need help with.”

Mother of five, Jen-nifer Henrie knows this well.

Now in Grade 1, her middle son, Christian, was considered to be a good candidate for as-sessment by a speech and language patholo-gist several years ago in Saskatoon because he didn’t have the number of words expect-ed for a child of 18 months.

“He was such an easy-going, content little guy,” Henrie says, noting that she added Christian, who has two older siblings, to a wait-ing list for assessment.

“In the meantime, family members and friends said, ‘he’s the youngest baby, the oth-er two are talking for

him, don’t worry.’”Hearing the reas-

surances, Henrie now agrees her decision to save taxpayers’ some money by taking Chris-tian off the waiting list was a short-sighted one.

“I wasn’t aware of all the other benefits we would have had if we had gone through the as-sessment,” the Salmon Arm mom says. “Fast forward to when Chris-tian was four years old, I casually picked up an-other pamphlet on mile-stones children should be reaching in speech at the health centre. I looked at four- to five -year-old milestones and realized he wasn’t meeting them.”

Now alarmed, Henrie got her son back on a wait list for assessment.

She says the assess-ment painted a really good picture of the things Christian needed to work on.

“When he would try to express an idea, thought or memory, it was hard to understand what he was talking about be-cause there was little context,” she

says, “He wasn’t able to communicate whether it happened two days or two years ago. It was frustrating for him and for listeners.”

On the positive side, since he’s been getting

help through the school system and Lewis, his speech has developed very well as has his ability to communicate.

“School is harder for him, but as he contin-ues to receive speech therapy his academic success is increasing,” says Henrie, describing Lewis as amazing and gifted in what she does.

When her fifth child, Joshua, showed the same shortage of words at 18 months, Henrie immediately sought help.

“This time I was in there like a dirty shirt waiting for an assess-ment because I knew how valuable it would be,” she says, pointing out that as Joshua is about to turn three, his speech is coming on beautifully because of early intervention.

“They’re open, re-sponsive and available, and my advice to par-ents would be, if you have a concern, never be afraid to ask a ques-tion about it.”

Lewis says there is a significant wait-list at the moment.

“We’ve got families and other service pro-viders that are getting good at realizing com-munication begins at birth,” she says. “We can identify communi-cation delays and dif-ficulties early on in a child’s life.”

On a positive note, Interior Health is get-ting a lot of great refer-rals. But the downside is, there isn’t sufficient funding to help every-one on the wait-list.

“We really believe in early intervention because we know the

sooner the we can help young children to com-municate in ways that are closer to their age level, the better the rest of their develop-ment will be,” Lewis says. “Not everyone recognizes the link between spoken lan-guage – reading, writ-ing and academics, but the other piece is that communication skills are foundational to re-lationships… We know friendships are vital to well-being.”

Until they attend school, children in B.C. receive speech and lan-guage services through health authorities and child development cen-tres.

Anyone who believes a child may be having communication issues may call Julie Lewis at 250-833-4128.

The majority of council has agreed to allow Askew’s Foods’ uptown store to place a sign on private property next to the Trans-Cana-da Highway.

At city council’s May 13 meeting, owner Da-vid Askew told coun-cil that signage has loomed large for him in the past few months, because the new store isn’t recognizable as a super market.

He said he has tried to create a building that suited the site, with glass, a curved struc-ture, and one that is sunken down so it pre-serves the viewscape.

“People report that they can’t tell if it’s a supermarket and if it’s open or not,” he said, adding that he wanted to wait until the build-ing was in place to fig-ure out what signage made sense.

He noted that if high-way traffic misses the turn-off for the store, they can’t head back until they reach the Jackson campus of salmon Arm second-ary.

“If you’re overwait-ea or save-on, every-one knows what it is. We have a bit more of an informational cam-paign.”

Kevin Pearson, the city’s director of devel-opment services, said he thinks this is the first time the city has received a request to install an information sign. The sign, which would be on property owned by shell and the Mac’s store, would be on the grassy area next to the highway and would be in the shape of an arrow with ‘Askew’s Foods’ printed on it.

Couns. Debbie Can-non and Chad eliason were opposed.

Cannon asked if this would be “open-

ing a can of worms for people to put signs on private property along the highway?”

Pearson said it could, as anyone can come to council. He said bylaw restrictions mean a sign can’t exceed one-metre square, and just one sign per business is allowed per lot.

e l i a s o n asked about getting one of the high-ways signs that lists different adjacent busi-nesses.

Askew said that even if he were to get permission for such a sign, he doesn’t think it would be effective in getting people’s atten-

tion for turning. Coun. Ken Jamieson

said he thinks the pro-liferation of signs has already begun.

“Why should we not help him out so people

c o m i n g down the road can turn into his store?”

C o u n . Marg Ken-tel said council can deal with each re-quest indi-vidually.

C o u n . Alan Harrison agreed, noting this is a unique situation.

both Coun. Denise reimer and Mayor Nancy Cooper said the building is an asset to the town and they are willing to help out.

Limits on beer gardensOne out of three organizations

had the hours they proposed for beer gardens approved by city council.

The city’s committee to ap-prove public events (CAPE) rec-ommended to council that the hours requested for the Roots and Blues Festival be approved, but not the hours for the Demoli-tion Derby and the Fall Fair.

Kevin Pearson, the city’s di-rector of development services, explained at council’s May 13 meeting that special occasion licences must coincide with an event in progress.

The Demolition Derby, which shuts down about 5 p.m., had asked for a beer garden licence from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Aug. 25, while the Fall Fair, which

shuts down at 9 p.m., requested hours of 12:01 to 11 p.m. on both Sept. 5 and 6, he said.

Council conse-quently approved a licence for the Demolition Derby from noon to 5 p.m. and for the Fall Fair from noon to 9 p.m. both days.

The Roots and Blues Festival re-quested a licence for three beer gardens – one near the main stage, one at the barn stage and one for the per-former hospitality area behind the main stage.

Times requested for all three festival beer gardens were: 4 to 11 p.m. Aug. 16, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Aug. 17, and 11 a.m. to 11

p.m. Aug. 18, hours that have been approved for previous fes-tivals, city staff reported.

“I appreciate CAPE’s recommen-dations here,” re-marked Coun. Alan Harrison. “They’re the experts and cer-tainly I’m not. The only other thing that has a bearing – I think it’s important that beer gardens are in line with when events are happen-ing. If people want

to go after, they can go to a drinking establishment.”

He added that at the Roots and Blues Festival, a lot of people are staying nearby, while at the other events, everyone is driving.

North Okanagan-Shuswap School Dis-trict is trying to rem-edy the fact that some school suspensions aren’t working.

The school board gave first reading at its May 14 meeting to a request to revise the Healthy Schools and Workplaces policy as

well as the Drug and Alcohol Misuse Regu-lation.

S u p e r i n t e n d e n t Dave Witt told trustees that a district commit-tee has spent several years researching why suspension practices aren’t working, and how they often end up with the students

dropping out. The committee has found that purely punitive practices don’t result in behaviour change. It also shows the drug and alcohol incidents referred for discipline are often a symptom of a greater issue in the student body, and the proposed revision sup-

ports identifying the deeper need.

Cycling to benefit childrenJim Maybee has been

training six hours a week as he gears up to conquer cancer.

On June 15 and 16 he will ride his bike through the Pacific Northwest in The Ride to Conquer Cancer that benefits the B.C. Can-cer Foundation.

“I used it as an op-portunity to get myself back on the bike and to help raise money for something that’s affect-ed a bunch of people in my family and people I know,” he said. “It’s amazing how many people I know who have had either a scare or had to go through treatment.”

Since battling cancer in 2001, Maybee has felt he should do some-thing to help support others with the disease and work towards a cure. During his diagno-sis he felt a connection

to Lance Armstrong who also battled can-cer and shared his love of cycling. Maybee has been a bike mechanic for 20 years and started Trailheads Bike and Ski Repairs two years ago. Now he is able to help the cancer community by doing what he loves.

“I think it’s going to be a really neat experi-ence,” Maybee said. “I think it’s probably go-ing to be an emotional experience and hope-fully rewarding in the end.”

The Ride to Conquer Cancer covers 240 ki-lometres from Vancou-ver to Seattle. In 2012 the 3,011 participants raised $11.2 million for the B.C Cancer Founda-tion.

Maybee has chosen to donate the funds he raises specifically to childhood cancer re-search.

“I look at is as, okay, I’m 40, I’ve had the chance to live but if

a kid doesn’t get that chance… It drives me crazy thinking about it,” Maybee said.

So far he has raised $1,610 of his goal of $3,200. However, he must raise the $2,400 to participate in the ride. His focus is fundraising and he hopes to raise enough to get to partici-pate. He sees the chance to ride as a bonus.

Maybee said the initial support was in-credible and he is still focused on meeting his goal. To donate to his cause, visit his page, Kevin James Maybee, on the Ride to Conquer Cancer website, http://www.conquercancer.ca.


on the way: Cyclist Jim Maybee pre-pares for The Ride To Conquer Cancer being held June 15 and 16 in Vancouver.

The Shuswap Ban-tam Lacrosse Team saw strong competition at the recent Kamloops Snakebite Lacrosse tournament.

First up for Shuswap was a 7-5 win versus Semiahmoo. Drew Bannister scored four goals, with Brayden Fairley, Kyle Clarke and Ethan Dodge add-ing singles.

Saturday morning action resulted in a 9-9 tie with North Delta. Bannister led the goal- scoring with five goals, and singles were added by Dom Young, Tyler Chartier, Dodge and Fairley.

Shuswap came out strong Saturday after-

noon to beat Kamloops 11-6. Watson and Ban-nister each netted three, Chartier and Dodge two each and a single came from Clarke.

Sunday morning’s round-robin final against Vancouver end-ed in a 6-6 tie. Bannister netted three, Chartier two and Fairley one.

Due to the point system, Shuswap and Semiahmoo edged out North Delta for the fi-nals Sunday. Shuswap came on strong with Chartier and Fairley getting hat tricks, Ban-nister and Watson put-ting away two apiece, and Dodge and Young placing singles to win it 12-5.

Eight of Shuswap Swimming’s newest swimmers voyaged to Westbank this past Saturday to test their talents at the Liquid Lightning Spring Jam-boree.

Jamborees are meets held at the regional lev-

el for new and develop-ing swimmers. Swim-mers strive to achieve a ‘regional’ standard at these meets to demon-strate their readiness to advance to the regional invitational level.

The meets are also designed to foster

and nurture the joy of swimming.

Linden McCal-lum, 13, and Paige Rasmuson-Saitz, 11, each raced to sub-four-minute times in the 200-metre indi-vidual medley to meet the regional standard.

Also competing for Shuswap were: Holly McCallum, 11; Austin Lawrance, 12; Nicole Congdon, 12; Rylee Grossman, 13; Jada Maas, 10; Eva Mosher, 9; and Teagan Webster-Locke, 10.

Each swimmer com-

peted in five races within three hours.

Hours of training translate into about eight seconds of com-petition.

When the weather’s colder, Rydr Strobl can be found pursuing a sport of the speedy kind. Like his father Eric, Strobl takes part in speed skiing.

Speed skiing is simi-lar to downhill racing, except the course is a straight line, so skiers reach extreme speeds. The current world re-cord is 251.4 km/h or 156 mph.

Specially designed courses are one-kilo-metre long and there are just 30 of them world-wide.

Strobl, who’s 16, starting training for speed skiing about five years ago. Although he’s been downhill ski-ing since he was three, because of the special-ized tracks for speed skiing, there’s really no opportunity to do prac-tice runs. He trains by practising his ‘tuck,’ the position he must get into in order to navigate the hill. He strengthens

the muscles needed for the position, and does visualizing as well.

“It’s lots of practice up here as well,” he says, tapping a finger to his temple. “You go from theoretical to do-ing the actual thing.”

This past season he competed in the FIS Speed Skiing World Cup, which was held Feb. 28 to March 3 at Sun Peaks Resort. He placed third in the ju-nior men’s category, be-hind a skier from Great Britain and one from France. Before the race, however, they were able to do a few practice runs. Strobl’s top speed was 145.8 km/hr in the approximate eight sec-ond run.

He says the first time is a bit scary.

“My first time experi-ence looking down the track was ‘holy crap.’ The whole experience after you go down is exhilarating. You want to get up there and do it again and again and again.”

And how did the race feel?

“It was over pretty quickly. You can feel the wind going around you.

You’re more focused on getting lower, keep-ing fast. You do kind of notice it, but you’re not noticing how fast you’re going. You’re just go-ing, ‘Ohhhhh boy.’”

It’s an eight-second rush, he says. And is it worth it? “Oh yeah.”

Although the race is over quickly, the sport does take its toll, he says. One demand-ing aspect is stopping extremely quickly. Through the whole event at Sun Peaks, just one racer crashed, Stro-bl said, and that hap-pened when he fell over on the end gate.

The top level of speed skiers wear special spandex suits – almost like rubber – that come right up to their necks. They wear special aero-dynamic helmets as well.

The guys in the rub-ber suits were clocked at 160 and 170 km/hr, Strobl says.

He said it’s not an extremely competitive sport, more of a group of skiers with lots of ca-maraderie.

“We’re not trying to steal each other’s secrets. Everybody’s friends up there, helping each other out.”

While speed skiing is big in Europe – the French and Italian and Austrian teams are sponsored – Canada doesn’t really recog-nize the Canadians as a team, he says.

Strobl still has plans to speed ski in Europe, however.

“Oh, yeah, totally. In a few years I hope to go over to Switzerland and do the track there.”

Asked if speed skiers are a special breed of people, Strobl replies: “Usually they’re pretty good people. I wouldn’t say brave, maybe a bit crazy.”

Pointing them straight down

Quite a rush: Rydr Strobl takes part in the FIS Speed Skiing World Cup at Sun Peaks Resort in March.

When the Shuswap U18 Boys travelled to Ka-mloops on Mother’s Day for an exhibition game against the Blaze, the teams were well matched and shared possession equally. Kamloops attempted more shots but struggled to hit the target, usually from long range, as the Shuswap defence extin-guished their efforts.

The wind raced down the field the entire game making it difficult to weight the ball correctly. It wasn’t until late in the game on a bold solo run from a Shuswap midfielder that the first goal was scored. Predictably, the sidelined mothers cheered enthusi-astically and, in the end, Shuswap earned its third clean sheet in a row with the 1-0 win.

Good gameLast week’s masters league had an entertaining

matchup between two local teams, Ted United and Merlot. Running onto great feed balls from Ted’s midfielders Tricia Martin and Liz Mair, Kyla Sher-man put Ted United up by two. Shortly after, Bonnie Kelly found the back of the net with a beautiful head ball from a Sue Doray cross. Kelly found the net one more time after running onto a rebound from Cathy Bartch’s shot. Defenders Krista Yonker and Brier Cadden held strong against Merlot’s offensive attacks. When needed, Ted United’s goalie Linda Yawney came out hard, shutting down any chances. No goals were scored in the second half for United with Heather Nash solid in net for Merlot.

ARTS & EVENTS

&Homies: Mike Shaver and Stephanie Webster of a

Million Dollars in Pennies will share songs inspired

by last year’s bike trip and a winter of hibernation.

On tour: Kevin Bertram, Leon Power and Steve Brockley perform in concert Friday to debut their new album.

Get ready to hear � ne stories set to music Friday night as the Steve Brockley Band and a Million Dol-lars in Pennies appear in concert at the Salmar Classic Theatre.

The concert will celebrate the release of the B.C.-based folk-country trio’s second album LeB-oeuf.

The Steve Brockley Band re-leased their self-titled debut al-bum in 2010 to critical acclaim and, after spending the last couple of years touring across Canada playing club dates, house shows and festivals, the boys are current-ly based out of a wood-paneled Buick named John Candy, to pro-mote LeBoeuf on a cross-Canada tour.

The band is Steve Brockley on guitar and vocals, Kevin Bertram on upright bass and Salmon Arm’s own Leon Power on drums and mandolin.

Their new album was produced

by John Raham (Be Good Tanyas, Frazey Ford, Po’ Girl) with songs written by Brockley, and includes all of the signature staples of the band – storytelling, clever meta-phors and great musicianship.

But this one is a much more per-sonal album for the band.

“When we recorded the � rst album, we were brand new and we just got in the studio and re-corded and mixed the whole thing in three days – quick and dirty,” says Brockley. “On this one, after spending the last couple years on the road together, we felt we owed the new material the best possible opportunity to come alive. We took the time we needed to cap-ture the songs without chasing them away.”

Born in B.C. and formed in Montreal, the Steve Brockley Band can’t easily be de� ned by one sound or musical genre. Though it is apparent that the band

is part of the tradition of folk mu-sic, they’re able to take the style in new directions without making the audience feel uprooted.

Getting to the heart of a song is their main goal. Not just digging into the notes, but nailing those spaces in between the notes. When you’ve got a good song, you want to let it breathe. A percussive dou-ble bass swagger, drum grooves from the gut and a rolling, � nger-picked guitar bring their brand of folk music to life. There’s no rush to the end of a song – if it’s right, it happens. The main thing is not to hurry, so nothing good gets away.

The band has been selected to perform at Toronto’s North By North East (NXNE), sister festival to SXSW and the largest festival of its kind in Canada.

Much closer to home this year, Mike Shaver and Stephanie Web-ster of a Million Dollars in Pen-nies, will share some of the mu-

sical results of last year’s highly successful cross-Canada bike ride, as well as new material cre-ated during a winter of near-hiber-nation.

“We’re still sifting through the trip and I think that will take several years – so many pictures and memories to work through,” laughs Webster. “We’ve had a qui-et winter, haven’t done very many shows so I am excited to play for the hometown folks.”

One of the new songs is dedi-cated to drivers the couple en-countered on their adventure by bicycle, Webster says with a grin.

Their music is a mixture of mel-low and some upbeat, she says, noting the enormity of adjusting to being in one spot, getting jobs and spending a mostly quiet win-ter after the grand, life-changing, busy trip meeting new people, seeing new things and being so physically engaged.

“I’m looking at music through different eyes, from the wide, world view to the introspective,” she says. “For me personally, it’s a really interesting shift in how I related to music… It’s become a lot more personal for me and I’m struggling with certain aspects of it, and other times it’s liberating.”

Webster says she and Shaver are both very excited to be playing with the Steve Brockley Band.

“Their new album is incredible and they’ve been on the road for more than a month, so they’ll be good,” says Webster, feeling in-spired by the recent sun and ready to shake off winter. “I’m excited to support what they’re doing as well and to bring people out to en-joy incredible music.”

Doors open at 7 p.m. and the concert starts at 8. Tickets at $20 are available at Acorn Music, Syn-ergy and the Shuswap Pie Com-pany.

Healing broken relationships

Members of First Nations will participate in a Humming-bird Healing Circle this week-end at Pierre’s Point.

The objective is to bring all nations together in a “Peace Through Arts” event led by Rev. Mary Fontaine of Hum-mingbird Ministries Healing Circles.

Hummingbird was founded by Fontaine, a member of the Mistawasis Cree First Nation in Saskatchewan.

Hummingbird’s programs and objectives include the well-being of First Nations, and goodwill between First Nations people, the church and Canadi-ans.

Hummingbird Circles are es-tablished in various locations throughout the Lower Main-land of British Columbia, in line with First Nations’ values of kinship and hospitality.

This event is open to anyone from any background or cul-ture, who wishes to experience a healing circle and to share in the arts such as music, drama and dance.

The circle re� ects the respect-ed indigenous values of listen-ing, community and equality before God, says Fontaine.

The circles include a wel-come, prayer and sacred songs in indigenous and other lan-guages.

On Wednesday, May 29, a follow-up, restorative forum to

discuss healing and reconcilia-tion issues for the Shuswap and North Okanagan will be held at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church.

It will be an evening of shar-ing ideas and impressions from the Kamloops Truth and Rec-onciliation Hearings, and other thoughts and concerns around aboriginal and non-aboriginal people.

Rev. Woldy Sosnowsky says Hummingbird Ministries works under the auspices of the Pres-byterian Church, one of several churches in Canada that oper-ated residential schools.

The Presbyterian Church op-erated two schools until 1964 – one in Thunder Bay and the other in Winnipeg.

“The Presbyterian Church has been a leader in the heal-ing and reconciliation process,” says Sosnowsky.

“In recent times, the church has initiated healing and recon-ciliation with various groups.”

Fontaine, a Cree and a Pres-byterian minister, has taken this on as her ministry in the Lower Mainland. This is her � rst trip outside of that region, says Sos-nowsky.

Fontaine works with church and non-church people and street people.

“She uses traditional tools of singing, dancing and drum-ming,” says Sosnowsky who attended UBC’s School of

Theology after retiring as a teacher, counsellor and princi-pal in North Vancouver where he worked closely with First Nations youths. “It resonates with people, that’s why her ministry is effective.”

An immigrant from Ukraine when he was very young, Sos-nowsky says he understands what it is like to be discrimi-nated against because of name and origin.

“As I went to school, I could see native kids were clearly dis-criminated against,” he says. “Those kids went home to sub-standard conditions. We did school together, but they went back to a different world.”

While the weekend heal-ing circle is primarily directed at First Nations people, Sos-nowsky is hoping to have a healthy showing of native and non-native people at next Wednesday’s forum.

“We’re not awful people, but we have to make sure we ac-knowledge our mistakes,” he says.

“The � rst step is to begin a conversation between the peo-ple who were harmed and those who represent those who did the harming – even though they may have not been involved in the actual decisions.”

The forum begins at 6 p.m. For more information, call Rev. Woldy Sosnowsky at 250-832-2454 or 250-832-7282.

Shuswap Theatre Society was in celebra-tion mode Saturday, as their latest Mainstage Production, The Herbal Bed, won an unheard of seven awards at this year’s Okanagan Zone Festival.

“We broke an Ozone Festival Award record,” said excited theatre so-ciety president Monica Kriese. “We got seven Ozzies: Best Support-ing Actress – Kaitlan Hunter; Best Sound Design – Stephen Ingle; Best Costumes – Ellen Gonella; Best Props and Best Set Decor – Cilla Budda; Best Performance by a child – Katie Findlay; Best Backstage Co-operation – Shuswap Theatre! WOW! I am so proud of Kim Mac-Millan and his amazing cast and crew.”

Also thrilled with the results, MacMillan, who directed the play, laughingly described the experience as “a wonderful time at fes-tival.”

“It was a very strong field, a lot of contend-ers,” he said, noting that adjudicator Amy Baskin, a freelance di-rector from Kamloops, did say Kaitlan Hunter stood out when she awarded the Shuswap Theatre actress with best supporting role.

MacMillan says the plays in this year’s Ozones were very dif-ferent, two of them with only two actors.

“It’s easier to put together a tight show when you only have to work with two people,” he says. “A large cast is just so much more complex, something Amy recognized.”

Two of the plays were heavy dramas, one was a large-cast farce and another a dark comedy.

MacMillan says the adjudicator’s task is always like picking amongst apples and or-anges.

“She absolutely sang the praises of the set de-cor, props and costumes – the attention to detail and the ability to trans-port people back 400 years, and the authen-

ticity of the set and so on,” raved MacMillan.

The director was also thrilled that two Shus-wap Theatre newcom-ers received awards – eight-year-old Katie Findlay and Stephen Ingle on sound.

“She was praised for her naturalness, the warm exuberant way she acted just like a nor-mal little girl,” he said. noting Baskin was so delighted with Findlay, she created her award category on the spot. “She would not have done that if she hadn’t been impressed.”

In the case of the “stunned and abso-lutely delighted” In-

gle, MacMillan said Baskin again noticed the attention to detail in the music chosen for the production and the quality of sound, such as a horse clip-clopping across the stage, the sound pan-ning from one speaker to another.

“He’s a gem and so reliable,” enthuses MacMillan, who show-ered praise on the rest of the crew and cast as well.

Although he did not win the award, Mac-Millan said his role as director drew positive feedback.

Maintaining he has a lot to learn, MacMil-

lan says he was struck by the collaborative way in which the entire team worked.

“I valued the input of the actors; if they came up with an idea, they tried it,” he says, noting everyone was totally committed and took ownership of their roles, some even get-ting together outside of regular rehearsal to go over their parts.

The entire cast loved working together and the energy that was generated was fantas-tic, he says.

“That was one of the most rewarding things for me,” he adds. “And it was a better show be-

cause of it, rather than if I had just directed traffic.”

MacMillan has di-rected once before and would like to again – probably not for two years.

“It was absolutely exhausting, but the creative process in that venue feeds me. I just love it.”

Capreece Bowers, Celebrant & Clinical Counsellor

Gerry died on May 13, 2013 at Bastion Place, with his loved ones by his side. He died as he had lived, quietly and with no fuss.

Gerry was born in Revelstoke to Tony and Hulda Ambil, and grew to adulthood there. Growing “tired of shoveling snow uphill,” he moved to Salmon Arm in the early seventies and started a thirty-three year career at Federated Coop Sawmill in Canoe,where he was known to many as Hippie, or just Hip.(In those days his hair was long and went all the way over his head.) After the mill closed he enjoyed working at Jacobson Ford until his illness forced him to retire in September, 2011. Gerry spent many leisure hours at Pro Body Shop, where he was known as PIN.

From the age of fourteen Gerry always had a motorcycle, and riding was his great joy from April toOctober. This was the first year since 1965 that he wasn’t off for a scoot whenever the weather would allow. His many biking buddies will miss him on theirrides.

Gerry was a true gentleman in his respect for others and his willingness to help anyone whoneeded a hand. It is a mark of his loyal nature thathe maintained friendships formed in childhood, withneighbours, and with co-workers to the end of his life. His common sense approach to problems andhis straightforward attitude to life won him respect from a wide circle of friends. He was a loving and considerate husband and father to Diane and hersons.

Gerry was predeceased by his parents and a step-son, Peter Urae. He is survived by his wife Diane, and step-sons David and Chris Urae, and by his brother Peter Ambil.

A celebration of Gerry’s life was held on Sunday, May 19 at 1:00 p.m. at Yan’s Restaurant, Gerry’s favourite place to eat.

From the time of his diagnosis, Gerry said, “Don’tfeel sorry for me - I’ve had a good life. I feel sorryfor the kids who don’t get to live their lives as theywould want.” In keeping with his wishes, those wanting to make donations in Gerry’s memory may do so to the Cancer Ward of B. C. Children’s Hospital, or to any Relay for Life team.

No help for injured duck

Tracking down assistance: Sherrie Favell wants the public to know where to go if they find injured wildlife.

A beautiful, sunny day at McGuire Lake lost its glow for one Salmon Arm resident.

Shuswap Lake Gen-eral Hospital employee Sherrie Favell was en-joying a picnic lunch Friday, May 10 when a friend pointed out a duck in distress.

The female duck had a broken wing, was bloated and was issu-ing a sort of strangled “enhh” sound rather than a quack, she says.

Favell returned to the hospital in search of a phone number for wildlife assistance but couldn’t find anything.

When she arrived at her second job at Mc-Guire Lodge, she man-aged to get a phone number – one that di-rected her to another number that, in turn, directed her to another number.

“It took me almost three hours to track down a number for wildlife assistance,” she says of finally connect-ing with the Kamloops Wildlife Park. “I talked to a lady who told me we don’t actually have someone to come out there and gave me infor-mation on how to catch the duck.”

Favell got a crate and towels and went over to the lake but it was too late.

“I found her float-ing upside down, “ she says. “Oh God, I cried because I thought if I captured this duck, she’d get help and have a chance.”

Favell was even more upset when she saw a small duckling floating near the female bird.

Another call to the

Kamloops Wildlife Park for advice and Favell was back out at the lake at 6:30 p.m looking for the solitary duckling, who would be reared at the park and released back at McGuire Lake.

“I went back several times on the weekend but couldn’t find one alone,” Favell says. “I was told another mother duck will adopt them if they’re young enough. That’s what I was hop-ing for.”

Since the closure of Kee-Two Wildlife Re-habilitation in Salmon Arm, there has been no-where locally for people to take injured wildlife.

Favell says there are people who told her they want to start a wildlife rehab facility here but are being ham-pered because of red tape, politics and fund-ing.

“There is a place but you have to phone BC Wildlife Park in Kam-loops first,” she says.

The wildlife park can be reached at 250-573-3242 ext 230 from 8 a.m to 4 p.m. or visit them at www.bczoo.org.



Salmon Arm’s indus-trial park will be getting a new entrance sign.

At city council’s May 13 meeting, council unanimously approved using $22,000 of the city’s industrial park signage reserve fund to put up a new sign at the intersection of

Highway 97B and Auto Road. The balance of the reserve fund, about $6,700, will be put to-wards an internal sign and business directory.

Staff reported that the Salmon Arm Chamber of Commerce is cur-rently working on the second sign.

The warm weather has arrived, and while we know we should be drinking water, some-times we want some-thing a little more inter-esting. Being a pregnant diabetic who dislikes the flavour of artificial sweeteners, my bever-age choices are pretty limited these days.

However, when I pe-rused the refrigerated beverage aisle of my lo-cal grocery store, I was amazed at the variety of new products available (and their prices).

Stevia-sweetened beverages, like Zevia: Steviol glycosides were approved in 2012 by Health Canada to be added to certain bev-erage and food items. This sweetener, extract-ed from the leaves of the stevia plant, tastes 200-300 times sweeter than regular sugar, therefore little is needed and no calories are consumed.

Although derived from a natural plant, it still has those bitter undertones similar to many artificial sweeten-ers, so do not expect the product to taste like its sugar-sweetened coun-terpart.

I was amused by the “recommended doses” printed on the side of the can: Children four to 13 years drink up to two to three cans per day. Adolescents and adults: consume up to five cans per day. I am unsure what governing body has made those recommendations.

Fortified waters, like Vitamin Water: Despite its healthy title, drink-ing these waters is more like washing down your morning multivitamin with a can of pop. Why did Health Canada al-low manufacturers to fortify sugar-sweetened beverages? Good ques-tion. Vitamin waters are considered a “natu-ral health product” and therefore are subject to less stringent regula-tions. However, vitamin water still contains eight teaspoons of sugar per bottle. Being heavily

supplemented, I would not drink more than

one per day. The lower-calorie Vitamin Zero water is sweetened with a combination of stevia, fructose and erythritol. Erythritol is a sugar alcohol that provides fewer calories than

sugar because it is not completely absorbed in your body. This means too much may cause abdominal discomfort, gas or diarrhea. There are also a number of other flavoured waters

on the market sweet-ened with more tradi-tional sugar, aspartame, acesulfame-K or sucra-lose (Splenda).

While there is noth-ing wrong with con-suming “alternative

beverages” on occa-sion, both your body and bank account will thank you if you make water your habit. Some cheaper alternatives include diluting fruit juice with carbonated

water, adding lemon or lime juice concentrate to club soda, or making your own lightly sweet-ened iced tea.

North Okanagan-Shuswap MP Colin Mayes turned 65 in April, but he’s not quite ready to collect his MP pension yet.

“I haven’t made my decision whether I’m going to run for re-elec-tion in two-and-a-half years; it’s one of the things I’m considering.”

There is no rule re-garding when an MP must retire. The oldest

MP is Ray Boughen from Moose Jaw, Sas-ka t chewan , who is 76.

“My kids would like to see me home, and my wife says, ‘I think you’re too young to re-tire.’ I appreci-ate that,” says Mayes.

He notes that his parlia-mentary committee is studying older workers

in the workplace – spe-cifically 55 and older.

“ T h e r e was a gos-pel of Free-dom 55. Is it realis-tic and do people re-ally want to retire at 55? That could give you 45 years of be-ing retired. That’s more

years of being retired than working.”
