Pair arrested for Tyler Myers murder # Police tape marked off the area where Tyler Myers’ body was found on Nov. 21, 2008. He died from a single gunshot wound. A 20-year-old man and 21-year-old woman have now been charged with first-degree murder.

Four years to the month

he was killed, police have

charged two people in the

murder of 22-year-old Ty-

ler Myers of Salmon Arm.

Myers died of a gunshot

wound on the evening of

Nov. 21, 2008, his body

discovered by a passerby

about 7:30 p.m. on a trail

on the grounds of Bastion

Elementary School.

On Monday of this week,

police arrested a 20-year-

old man and a 21-year-old

woman, both who were

under 18 years at the time

of the murder so can’t be

named under the Youth

Criminal Justice Act.

Both are residents of

Salmon Arm and both have

been charged with fi rst-de-

gree murder.

The pair appeared briefl y

in Salmon Arm Court on

Tuesday where the charges

were read out. They were

ordered to be held in cus-

tody until their next joint

court appearance on Nov.

20. The parents of the ac-

cused man and the mother

of the accused woman were

also present in the court-

room.

At a news conference at

the Salmon Arm RCMP

detachment Tuesday after-

noon, Insp. Gary Shinkaruk

of the RCMP’s E Division

Major Crime Section said

the man had been arrested

at his home in Salmon Arm

while the woman was ar-

rested in a public setting in

Vernon – both without inci-

dent.

Both were known to the

deceased, he said.

“We talked to the Myers

family – certainly it was

a very emotional time for

them as we can all imag-

ine... We told them who

they were, they were aware

of both the individuals.

The three individuals –

Mr. Myers and the two

charged, knew each

other. I won’t go into

the specifi cs of that

relationship; we’ll let

that come out in court.

Certainly the families

also knew each other

and I think that the

Myers family was sur-

prised at who has been

charged...”

Shinkaruk empha-

sized that the investiga-

tion remains active and

further charges could

be laid.

“Certainly we fi nd

often that once charges

are laid, some people

at that point may feel

safer or may have in-

formation they didn’t

want to really bring

forward for a variety of

reasons.”

Shinkaruk said he

would encourage any-

one who has any in-

formation regarding

the crime to contact

police.

The courtroom was

almost fi lled to capac-

ity with many young

people, some of whom

were expressing shock

at the identities of the

accused. Many said

they felt compelled to

come to court to try

and look the accused

killers in the eye.

Shinkaruk was asked

at the news conference

if the murder could

have been drug-relat-

ed.

He replied: “Tyler

Myers, a 22-year-old

Salmon Arm youth, did

not deserve in any way

to be murdered in 2008

or any time. The inves-

tigation, the details of

what motive or other

details are best coming

out in court, respecting

the charter rights, but

certainly, we’ll say the

three individuals did

know each other. We

don’t believe this was

a random murder. By

virtue of the fi rst-de-

gree murder charge we

believe it was a planned

and deliberate murder

of Tyler Myers.”

He said the investi-

gation went through

several stages. He

credited the Salmon

Arm RCMP Detach-

ment for its thorough

preservation of evi-

dence, initial investiga-

tions, interviews and

follow-up interviews.

The RCMP Southeast

District Major Crimes

Unit then joined the

investigation, which

Shinkaruk also credit-

ed for its work in mov-

ing the investigation

forward. This year, the

Unsolved Homicides

Unit took on the in-

vestigation from the

Southeast District and

has been working on it

full time.

“Certainly when

Unsolved comes on, it

gives the opportunity

to focus full time on

that... It allowed a team

of dedicated investiga-

tors to concentrate on

this,” he said, noting

that the earlier investi-

gations paved the way

for the arrests.

The murder took

place when there was

a function going on at

the elementary school,

Shinkaruk said, noting

that Salmon Arm is a

small, safe community

– and this crime was a

shock.

“It was after school

hours but there were

adults that were there...

It reinforces that when

people do murder in

public places, in open-

air places, it really does

put people at risk. This

happened in a trail on a

school ground. People

heard the shots when

they were at a school

function.”

# The Sturgis North organization intends to partner with the Neskonlith Indian Band to bring the motorcycle rally back to the Shuswap after it was moved to the Spallumcheen MotoPlex last summer.

MARKET FILE PHOTO

Sturgis North is returning to the

Shuswap in 2013.

A joint news release from Joan

Hansen, president of Sturgis North,

and Chief Judy Wilson, chief of the

Neskonlith Indian Band, was issued

Wednesday, Nov. 7, announcing that

Sturgis North and the Neskonlith

band will be hosting the 2013 Sturgis

North Annual All Make Motorcycle

Jamboree and Music Festival.

In a follow-up phone interview,

Hansen said the event will not be

in Salmon Arm but is proposed for

Neskonlith land closer to Chase – and

will be held in August, not July.

“Our feedback from our patrons

was they really wanted to have water.

We lost a lot of people to the different

lakes,” she said. “We want to have

more of a waterfront location. We

want people to have fun and not have

to leave.”

In July 2011 the motorcycle rally

and music festival was held on two

sites – the Salmon Arm Fairgrounds

and Neskonlith land in Gleneden.

This summer, it moved to the Spal-

lumcheen MotoPlex Speedway.

Hansen said a portion of the event

will remain in Spallumcheen.

“It was a tough decision, the mo-

toplex is a really great venue. There

are still going to be some events at the

motoplex,” she said, noting Sturgis is

on good terms with the owner.

When the event was held in Salm-

on Arm in 2011, it left a bad taste

in the mouths of some businesses.

Several were not paid for the services

they provided.

“We’re going to be getting some-

thing together with the people, once

we have the property secured... We

will sit down with the creditors,” Han-

sen said, adding that Sturgis North

would like to set up an account to pay

off debts owed.

Hansen said Sturgis set up a restruc-

turing company that advised them to

pay creditors reduced amounts. She

said she doesn’t agree with reduc-

tions, even though it will take longer

to pay people what they’re owed.

“Even if it takes five years, our

plan is to pay off all legitimate debt.

There was a lot of illegitimate debt,”

she added, contending that Sturgis

was over-charged for many services.

“The costs were $2.6 million,” she

said of 2011. “This year it was only

$700,000. That’s a lot of over-billing.

With that in mind, I think we’ll do

fine.”

She said the event hasn’t made

money yet, but similar events don’t

for the first four years. She pointed to

the Merritt music festival and the Live

Nation festival in Squamish.

“It’ll take a couple of years; it’s

not going to happen overnight. We’re

not going to aim for a huge festival –

we’re going to shorten the days and

bring the prices down.”

Asked about former Sturgis presi-

dent Ray Sasseville, Hansen said he’s

no longer involved.

“He’s pursuing his music and writ-

ing a book,” she said, explaining that

he is working on a recording label for

up-and-coming artists.

Wilson was unavailable for com-

ment.

Having enjoyed a taste of civic politics, Greg Kyllo is ready for the next level as BC Liberal candidate for the Shuswap riding.

Kyllo, a first-term councillor with the District of Sicamous, decided last Friday to run for nomination to lead the Shuswap rid-ing of the BC Liberal party – a position held by retiring MLA George Abbott since 1996 – into the May 2013 provincial elec-tion.

Others seeking nom-ination include former Salmon Arm Mayor Marty Bootsma, former Spallumcheen Mayor Will Hansma and Jor-dan Ross of Salmon Arm.

Along with being a municipal councillor, Kyllo is the co-owner and manager of TA Structures in Sicamous. Both Kyllo and the company feature prom-inently in the provin-cial government’s cur-rent BC Jobs Plan cam-paign. But Kyllo has a longer, deeper connec-tion to the BC Liberals (including his friend-ship with Abbott), which has, in part, prompted him to try his hand at provincial poli-tics.

“The Liberals are certainly free enterprise – It’s all about small business, and the rights of the individual,” says Kyllo, explaining what it is about the BC Lib-eral party that appeals to him. “Obviously it’s all about job growth, and I lived through the NDP-era through the late ’80s, early ’90s. It was just a disaster for our business.

“I think the Liberals have done a fantastic job and I want to see that they retain power. The Conservatives I certainly don’t see as a viable option….”

Kyllo says he actual-ly began thinking about running to represent the Shuswap earlier this summer, after he and his wife Georgina were approached by a number of individuals who thought he’d be a good candidate.

“We thought pretty long and hard about it and we initially made a decision about five weeks ago that we were not going to run,” says Kyllo.

Things changed, however, when Greg and Georgina attended the recent BC Liberal convention in Whistler. There, the Kyllos – un-beknownst to them – were chosen to receive the BC Liberal Party’s May Brown Award, an

honour bestowed upon party supporters for “contributions to the community, the prov-ince and the cause of liberalism…”

Asked what hurdles he sees ahead for the BC Liberals in the coming election, Kyllo acknowledged the pub-lic is still angry about the HST. But he says he sees the momentum of public opinion swinging back in fa-vour of a Liberal gov-ernment, something he believes to be essential to the province’s econ-omy.

Kyllo says that as much as he enjoys serv-ing as a councillor, he would be able to do

more for Sicamous, and the Shuswap, if elected MLA.

In the meantime, his

sights are set on secur-ing the nomination for the Shuswap riding.

Kyllo joins the race for riding

On October 31, 2012, BC Supreme Court Justice Bruce Cohen’s long awaited, 1,191 page, $26 million report, The Uncertain Future of Fraser River Sockeye, was released after almost a year-and-a-half of public hearings, the col-lection of some 2,000 exhib-its, the review of more than 500,000 documents and two time extensions.

While the report was very clear in stating that there was no single cause or “smoking gun” to explain the poor (2009) Fraser River sockeye salmon run, it did cover a wide range of issues includ-ing the negative impacts of warming oceans, climate change and contamination and development along the river, as well as the non-im-plementation of the Depart-ment of Fisheries and Ocean’s wild salmon policy. The re-port also states that “much remains unknown and more scientific research is need-ed.”

At a press conference fol-lowing the release of the re-port, Justice Cohen said that much more scientific re-search is needed and called on the government “to start

that work now, and not put it off because of budget con-cerns.”

Of the 75 recommenda-tions (to the federal govern-ment) contained within the report, 11 were focused pri-marily on the province’s salmon-farming industry, ad-dressing issues like govern-ment management, the loca-tions of open net-pen farms and the need for more re-search. The report says that Fraser River sockeye face a “likelihood of harm” from disease and pathogens on farms, especially in the Dis-covery Islands, located north-east of Campbell River, be-tween Vancouver Island and the province’s mainland.

“Disease can cause signifi-cant population declines,

and, in some situations – for example, if a disease were to wipe out a vulnerable stock of Fraser River sockeye – such effects could be irre-versible,” wrote Cohen. “I therefore conclude that the potential harm posed by salmon farms to Fraser River sockeye salmon is serious or irreversible.”

The report states that “the federal government should prohibit net-pen farms in the Discovery Islands... unless the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans is satisfied those farms pose at most a minimal risk to migrating sockeye.”

Implicit in the report is the implication that the DFO is caught in a conflict of inter-est.

On one hand it has a duty to protect wild salmon stocks while, on the other hand, is expected to promote farmed salmon. The report recom-mends that DFO be released from its conflicted mandate and that the protection of wild salmon stocks and the promotion of aquaculture be moved to a different depart-ments.

It also recommends the full funding and immediate

implementation of the gov-ernment’s 2005 Wild Salmon Policy.

Predictably, the BC Salm-on Farmers Association put their own spin on the report.

In a statement made by B.C. Salmon Farmers Asso-ciation board member Stew-art Hawthorn, the association said: “We’re very happy with Justice Cohen’s praise of the quality and quantity of our data,” adding that, “he didn’t ask us to stop farming, just to do more research, which we’re happy to do.”

A number of other recom-mendations deal with the need for increased research and monitoring of fish and habitat.

The Cohen report is a compelling document that deals with one of the most complex environmental problems B.C. (and Ottawa, due to the fact that salmon stocks fall under federal ju-risdiction) have ever faced. If the federal government truly wants to save B.C.’s wild sockeye salmon stocks, it is imperative they move quick-ly to implement the recom-mendations made by Justice Cohen in his report.

On Sunday many of us will gather around ceno-taphs and in city squares for solemn ceremonies paying tribute to Canada’s service men and women. We’ll hear words like sacrifice and hon-our, some of them uttered by politicians.

But for some veterans they’ll ring hollow.In 2006, Parliament passed the New Veterans

Charter that changed the way injured soldiers are compensated. Instead of a lifetime pension, indexed to inflation, veterans injured after that year, or who had their injury diagnosed since then, would get a lump sum settlement.

But some veterans, say Canadian soldiers injured in Afghanistan, and those suffering the lingering mental and emotional effects of their tour, are get-ting substantially less support than they would have received with the former indexed pension.

A study by Queen’s University last year con-cluded most disabled soldiers will receive only two-thirds the compensation under the New Veter-ans Charter than they would have received from the old Pension Act.

Recently Canada’s auditor-general criticized the Canadian Forces and Veterans Affairs for their shoddy treatment of injured veterans, saying the system to get them help is “complex, lengthy and challenging to navigate.”

Even in death, the indignities continue. A pro-gram that is supposed to contribute just over $3,600 to the funeral costs for destitute ex-soldiers has rejected more than two-thirds of funding requests since 2006. Even when approved, that money is still less than some social services departments will pay towards the burial of the homeless.

It’s one thing for Canada’s politicians to honour our veterans. It’s another to treat them with hon-our.

MAIL BAGYou can always tell

when the Conservatives have something that appeals to their base — take the long gun registry. Members of the government con-stantly inform us of what they have done to the registry. The repeal warranted a separate debate, with no limita-tions on time. By this standard, they are very, very embarrassed about the Chinese-Canadian free trade agree-ment. No debate. No boasting. No informa-

tion. Rather like the agreement itself.

Why do I have to listen to Rick Mercer to find out that there is a 15-year notification re-quired for cancellation of the agreement? NAFTA only needs six months.

Why are the Chinese demanding that every-thing be secret? If this was so good for every-one, as Colin Mayes and his sidekick from the People’s Republic of China imply, wouldn’t they be pa-

rading it around like they did with the gun registry? What do they have to hide?

Now Mayes informs us that we should be happy because Prince Rupert Port is investing in a wood pellet termi-nal. Are pellets the best use of our forest lands? Are our coal mines only profitable if we have temporary Chi-nese miners working there?

Trade can be good, but it can also be bad. Otherwise, Mr.

Mayes would be crow-ing about the good re-sults of the Opium wars, which forced China to accept opium in exchange for their exports, rather than the silver bullion they orig-inally demanded. If the only requirement of prosperity was exports, the copperbelt coun-tries of Zambia and the DRC would be super-powers. They can’t even afford roads.

Canadian oil can be refined and used here, and thus maintain and

rebuild our infrastruc-ture, pay our pensions, and provide healthcare, or it can be exported raw to China where it will build Chinese in-frastructure.

It can’t do both. Must we wait until our high-ways look like some-thing out of Mad Max... or Zambia?

Richard Smiley

Writer would prefer to trade governmentIn his opinion piece

on Nov. 23, Colin Mayes trots out all the usual buzzwords and hyperbole surrounding the issue of trade, in-cluding “vibrant econ-omy” and “prosperity” and other typical group-speak propagan-da. Mayes then cites various statistics re-garding the increasing volume of trade and concludes by stating that the Harper govern-ment is concerned with protecting the environ-ment through all of this.

Of course, it is the

Harper government which recently took all the teeth out of envi-ronmental oversight and legislation. And it is the Harper govern-ment, along with Mr. Mayes, who conve-niently ignore the fact that, despite the current unprecedented level of global trade and trade agreements, the stan-dard of living is in fact in decline in Canada, unemployment remains persistently high (while we import workers from China for mines in British Columbia), the Canadian economy

is lurching and creak-ing as though it is about to fall down complete-ly, Canadians have re-cord levels of personal debt, and the taxpaying Canadian middle class is being wiped out as jobs are exported to countries with much lower wages and labour standards.

Who actually bene-fits from all of this? I see no reduction in the fat compensation pack-ages for corporate CEOs, or for our politi-cians for that matter. There is nothing trick-ling down to the aver-

age Canadian, which of course is nothing new as trickle down eco-nomic theory is noth-ing but a fabrication used by the wealthy to keep the herd from stampeding.

No, the next trade agreement I wish to see in Canada is one where we trade our current “government” for one which actually cares about the average Ca-nadian, rather than con-tinuing to line the pock-ets of the one-percen-ters.

He sits in the com-

fort of his living room

chair, next to a win-

dow with a serene view

of Shuswap Lake. His

wife, Wendy, sits by

his side.

Dean’s life here is

calm and relaxed, the

only indication of his

involvement with war

is the name of one of

the two rescue dogs

that lie at his feet.

Dixie, is a subtle nod

to his days spent soar-

ing through the skies as

a navigator for Royal

Air Force bomber com-

mand, a time when he

was known as Dixie

Dean.

It is his story that

earned him an invita-

tion from by War Torn

Productions to appear

on the History Channel

series, War Stories. The Blind Bay veter-

an will be appearing in

two episodes, which air

this weekend – Bomber Command – Hitting Back and the second

called Bomb Command – Heading Home.

“I was touched when

they came to me,” says

Dean. “I thought people

had forgotten about all

that stuff. I didn’t think

anyone was still inter-

ested in what happened

back then.”

Dean was only

16-years-old when the

Second World War

broke out in 1939. Not

allowed to enlist until

his 18th birthday, Dean

jumped at the chance

to join the Air Training

Corps.

He was later called

up to RAF 51 Squad-

ron, at which time there

was a major shortage of

navigator-bombardiers.

“I was nervous,” he

says, “but I had a strong

religious background, I

had faith that I would

make it through.”

Dean says that many

of his friends were not

as lucky as him.

“We used to say

that once you made it

through six ops you

would finish your tour,”

he explains, “Most did

not make it.”

Dean completed 28

operations during his

first tour.

His final operation in

that tour had him head-

ing to Peenemunde,

located in North Ger-

many.

“Berlin was big, we

wouldn’t dare touch it,

but when they began

bombing London, well,

we had to show them

that they could not do

this.”

The operation was

considered successful.

About 600 RAF, Ca-

nadian and Australian

aircraft left on Aug. 17,

1943. Their goal was

to destroy the factories

that were producing

V1 doodlebugs, V2

Rockets and unmanned

bombs.

“It was quite a sight

you know,” says the

veteran. “We were fly-

ing to Berlin to destroy

the factories making

flying bombs as well as

their launch sites, and

here they were flying

past us on their way to

London.”

On the way there,

Dean describes how

some pilots attempted

to shoot the bombs.

“This, I guess, was

not a very smart thing

to do because it would

have been so easy to

cause them to explode

and possibly take out

the pilot as well.”

If the pilots were

able to knock the fly-

ing bombs off course

it would cause them to

fall from the sky and

explode on the ground

below.

Either way, the fly-

ing bombs were faster

than the planes, and in

most cases the pilots

were not able to tar-

get the bombs success-

fully.

This, he adds, was

one of his biggest and

most nerve-racking ops

he flew.

Winston Churchill

had delivered his or-

ders, Dean explains.

“He said that if we

did not complete the

mission that night, we

would be sent out the

next, and the next and

the next until we were

successful.”

About 600 planes

in total were sent out,

of which 41 did not

return.

“Each plane had at

least a six-man crew,”

says Dean. “When one

plane went down, we

lost six men.”

During the Second

World War, 55,000 air-

men lost their lives, he

points out.

After Dean finished

his tour, he took a short

break, filling in the

time by teaching navi-

gation and bombing

techniques.

He was soon asked

to return to the skies,

this time as the head of

his squadron.

Dean often filled in

for other navigators,

who had been grounded

for some reason. These

were unsettling mis-

sions at times, he adds.

Sometimes he went

on operations with well-

trained veterans, but

in other cases he flew

with “first timers.”

SOUTH SHUSWAPWar hero to be featured on TV

# Ken “Dixie” Dean was home on leave in Eastleigh, England, in 1943, after his first tour of duty with the Royal Air Force, when he read in the local newspaper that he had been awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross.

That magical time of year

is quickly approaching and

the Cedar Heights Community

Center is deep into the planning

process for their annual bazaar.

Locals will soon be able to

put a dent in their Christmas

shopping list Saturday, Nov.

24, with some very unique

gifts, many of which are locally

made.

Take along a little extra

money to pick up some of the

scrumptious holiday baking that

includes everything from home-

made pies and cookies to pero-

gies. This can save you hours of

slaving over your own stove and

free you up to enjoy the season.

If you cannot make the entire

event, or know just what you

will be looking for, you can

place a baked good order ahead

of time and stop in to pick it up

at the sale. Guests will also be

able to buy delicious homemade

soups and buns for a satisfying

lunchtime break.

For more information, call

Barb Cotterill at 675-5308.

The bazaar runs from 9 a.m.

to 2 p.m. and tables are still

available by calling Agnes at

250-675-3102.

“On the plus side, it

seemed to give the new

guys a sense of confi-

dence to be flying with

someone who had been

there, done that.

“They thought we

would keep them out

of hot water,” he says.

“However, it didn’t

matter how much expe-

rience you had, if you

got hit, there wasn’t

much you could do.”

Dean completed

some 14 to 18 more

operations before the

war came to an end

and he was able to re-

turn home.

Towards the end of

the war, he was invited

to Buckingham Palace,

where King George V1

presented him with his

Distinguished Flying

Cross.

“A friend and I

went to see The King’s Speech not too long

ago,” laughs Wendy. “I

told her that Ken met

him and she was kind

of shocked.”

Wendy maintains

the importance of re-

cording the war stories.

“Once we lose our

veterans, all this his-

tory will be gone with

them.”

The Shuswap Lake Integrated Planning Pro-cess (SLIPP) was initi-ated in 2007 and after three years a strategic plan was developed with three basic goals that address the need for protecting water quality, and ensuring that both development and recre-ational experiences are sustainable. Since the plan was created, SLIPP has focused on monitor-ing water quality, im-proving compliance and enforcement and resto-ration of foreshore habi-tat. This year, efforts have begun to develop a recreation management plan for Shuswap, Little Shuswap, Mara and Ad-ams lakes.

It is an ambitious project, with goals that include providing a vi-sion for how recreation-al resources will be managed and determin-ing objectives for infra-structure needs, zoning, use thresholds and mon-itoring. Key to the proj-ect is the use of what is called a “Recreation

Optimization Manage-ment Model,” which provides a guide to un-derstanding the Shus-wap’s current recre-ational management system. The model iden-tifies the supporting en-vironmental, economic and cultural conditions; the existing activities such as boating, camp-ing, and fishing and the recreationists, including both permanent and sea-sonal residents, and visi-tors.

The first step for de-veloping a recreation plan for the Shuswap has been the preparation of a background report or “situation analysis.” This report, completed in spring 2012, is now available on the SLIPP website: www.slippbc.ca.

There exists an overly complex management structure, with four lev-els of governance: local, provincial, federal and First Nations. At the lo-cal level, there are three regional districts and three municipalities. Because of many, inter-secting levels of govern-ment, coordination of recreational services is restricted, which results in a barrier to sustain-able management.

There has been a sig-nificant growth in tour-ism revenue in the Thompson-Okanagan region, which includes the Shuswap, as the sta-

tistics show a 55 per cent increase in hotel revenue over the last 10 years. However, the data from the Salmon Arm Visitor Centre shows little change over the last five years, with most of the visitors being lo-cals, followed by the next largest group from B.C., then Alberta, fol-lowed by Europe.

Of all the activities that take place on the lakes, power-boating is both the most popular and the most conten-tious. However, statis-tics show a decline in boating, with fewer camping permits sold to those arriving in boats in the Shuswap Lake Marine Park. The statis-tics also show a decline in the visual tally of houseboats visiting park sites from a peak of 13,565 in 2005, and a decline in the number of commercial houseboats registered with BC Parks from 225 in 2006 to 178 in 2011.

Although there has been one informal boat count by Shuswap Lake Watch in 2010 that showed a high number of boats during the July long weekend, there is a lack of any hard data on the quantity of boats on the lake. While the re-port does identify the 11 commercial marinas and notes there are 40 smaller, private marinas, it does not describe how the 1,704 existing moor-age spots are likely filled to capacity. Nor does the report provide any data about the huge number of buoys that were placed in the lake prior to the new bylaw coming into force this October.

There is scant data on non-motorized water recreation, although there is anecdotal infor-mation about an increase in canoeing, kayaking and paddle boarding. Statistics do show that both provincial park camping and fishing

numbers have remained fairly consistent, al-though there has been a sharp decline in private campgrounds.

The report provides no shortages of issues that need to be ad-dressed, including con-flicts from overcrowd-ing, noise pollution, limited lake access, lim-ited infrastructure, in-sufficient enforcement, a lack of research and the impacts of high- speed boats on shore-lines and habitat. In ad-dition, concerns contin-ue to increase regarding houseboat greywater ef-fluent, agricultural run-off and the impacts on natural ecological val-ues. Missing from the report are the mounting concerns about the im-pact of motorized recre-ational vehicles on ri-parian areas adjacent to the lake.

This past summer, two students collected survey information from both residents and visi-

tors to address the gaps and provide more data for the planning process. This survey will be available online (at slip-pbc.ca) for local resi-dents to participate in until the end of Novem-ber. If you care about the future of the lakes

and recreational experi-ences, please take the survey and provide in-put on the draft plan. There will be more op-portunities to provide input next spring, as completion of the plan is expected in the fall of 2013.

A wealth of young

talent will be featured

in the next Songwrit-

ers Showcase presented

Nov. 17 by Kelly Hop-

kins & Silvercreek Mu-

sic.

The show, to be held

at 7:30 p.m. at SAGA

Public Art Gallery will

be hosted by tried and

true singers, songwrit-

ers and performers

Richard Owings and

Murray MacDonald of

One Camel Short.

As One Camel Short,

MacDonald and Ow-

ings have created a rep-

ertoire of original pieces

and arrangements that

explore musical cross-

roads from around the

world.

Their concerts and

their new CD take lis-

teners on a rocking

musical journey which

might begin with a

homegrown song of

the Canadian Prairies,

then jump to a Bulgar-

ian handkerchief dance,

followed by a sliding

snake oil blues or brand

new fi ddle tune, and

perhaps fi nishing up in

a sultry groove that may

make you want to belly

dance.

The pair have been

performing and record-

ing together for several

years and their show is

an eclectic mix of mu-

sical styles and genres

guaranteed to get your

toes tapping.

This, the third show-

case in the fall series,

will also include the in-

credible talent of several

young, up-and-coming

artists.

Shuswap Idol singer-

songwriter winner Jesse

Mast, Megan Abel, the

winner of the “Songs

for the Shuswap” junior

category and a fi nalist in

the “Our Kids Have Tal-

ent” contest, and per-

forming songwriter and

recording artist Aimie

Laws will add their fl air

and fl avour to the mix.

Mast, who recently

moved to Salmon Arm

with his family, picked

up a country fi ddle eight

years ago.

Four years ago, he

learned the guitar and

began singing, writing

and performing within

the last year.

He will and Abel will

perform as a duo.

Hopkins is excited

to be presenting these

young performers and

designed the singer-

songwriter series to

showcase the wealth

of talented people cre-

ating and performing

their own music. The

intimate gallery setting

adds a fun, house party

feel.

The show starts at

7:30 p.m. Tickets at $10

are available at Acorn

Music, or at the door.

A portion of the pro-

ceeds will go to the

Second Harvest food

bank. Gourmet refresh-

ments will be available

by donation.

While most of their

8,000-kilometre bike

tour across Canada was

about warmth, welcome

and music, Mike Shaver

and Steph Webster felt

humbled to be follow-

ing the route of Terry

Fox.

The couple, who per-

form as a Million Dol-

lars in Pennies, dipped

their bike tires in the

Pacifi c Ocean near a

memorial to the coura-

geous young cancer vic-

tim in July. They did the

same when they arrived

at the Atlantic after a

four-month concert tour

fuelled entirely by pedal

power.

Speaking from Cow

Bay, N.S. last Friday,

the couple described

their delight in the tour.

“It’s the best thing

I’ve done in my life,”

raved Webster.

Any preconceived

fears about the long

journey were laid to

rest, added an equally

enthusiastic Shaver.

“The only downside

is I found it to be ad-

dictive,” he says. “If

that looked daunting

and wasn’t, what more

could be possible?”

Webster says once

they cleared Rogers

Pass, she thought she

could do anything.

That, in part, could

be a result of their close

encounter with a bear

that had them penned

in an outhouse for 20

minutes.

“He was just so curi-

ous, he came up around

the outhouses and no

amount of banging,

yelling or honking

would move him,” says

Webster. “We fi nally

got to our bikes and just

bolted.”

The reception the two

received on the rest of

the tour was far more

heartening.

“All the way across

the country we expe-

rienced so much kind-

ness, welcome and

warmth,” Webster says.

“It defi nitely restored

our faith in humanity.

It’s amazing the gener-

osity we experienced, it

was so overwhelming.”

Shaver describes the

experience as absolute-

ly mind-blowing and at-

tributes it to the emails

announcing their next

destination, asking if

anyone knew anybody

who would put them

up, give them a place to

set up their tent, or feed

them, in exchange for a

concert.

“People would pass

on messages to their

friends,” he says. “We

met people who were

friends of friends, or

friends of friends of

friends.”

Shaver says he was

overwhelmed by the

willingness of people

to become part of their

experience.

“I think the notion

of a bike is instantly

disarming and we were

travelling as a male-

female duo,” he says of

people’s willingness to

accept them and their

“biker” gear. “And it’s

kind of hard to look

tough and menacing

when you’re wearing

tights.”

The couple played

music, tidied up after

themselves as much as

possible at each place

they stayed and left a

CD with a thank you

note.

The couple’s on-road

experience was also

stellar.

“The big transport

trucks were the most

courteous by far; we

have nothing but good

things to say about

them,” says Webster,

noting the weather co-

operated for most of the

journey.

As of last Friday a

Million Dollars in Pen-

nies had played 24

shows, with three more

on the slate.

The couple will board

a train in Halifax on Fri-

day for a more relaxed

journey home.

Accepted to VIA

Rail’s onboard enter-

tainment program in

lieu of tickets, Webster

and Shaver will play

two 45-minute sets

daily all the way back to

Vancouver.

They arrive in the

Shuswap Saturday,

Nov. 17 and, as prom-

ised, perform in concert

that night at Sunnybrae

Hall.

Vancouver singer and

guitarist Missy Don-

aldson will open for a

Million Dollars in Pen-

nies at 8. Tickets at $15

are available at Synergy

and Acorn Music.

The Louisiana Hay-

making a stop at the

SASCU Rec Centre

Saturday, Nov. 17.

“If you’ve enjoyed

shows one, two and

three, you will be de-

lighted with this ‘best

of’ show that combines

songs from all of the

previous shows,” says

Hayride creator Lori

Risling. “If you’re new

to the Louisiana Hay-

ride live musical expe-

rience, this will be the

perfect show to see for

your fi rst time.”

All the original char-

acters are back, includ-

ing Patrick Ryley as

Hank Williams, An-

drea Anderson as Patsy

Cline, Adam Fitzpat-

rick as Elvis and Gil

Risling as Roy Orbi-

son.

In addition to their

wonderful songs, you’ll

love the other classic

tunes in the show.

Rounding out the en-

semble are musicians

William Brookfi eld

and Mike Melnichuk.

Lori will again pro-

vide interesting anec-

dotes about the original

singers, such as Elvis,

who was told he prob-

ably shouldn’t pursue a

career in singing.

Tickets are available

at Wearabouts on Alex-

ander Street and Touch

JAMES MURRAY/MARKET NEWS

Author tells tales of her solitary life

Chris Czajkowski has

lived in the far reaches

of the Chilcotin for al-

most 30 years, where

she has hand-built all of

her cabins, often with

no help at all.

Resourceful and

fi ercely independent,

Czajkowski has become

one of B.C.’s favourite

wilderness dwellers.

She will share her ex-

periences and introduce

her new book, Ginty’s Ghost: A Wilderness Dweller’s Dream, at

SAGA Public Art Gal-

lery at 7 p.m. Friday,

Nov. 9.

In 2006, Czajkowski

bought a derelict home-

stead at Ginty Creek.

Although there is rough

road access into this

property, it is still quite

remote.

Her new book is

Czajkowski’s account of

settling into this homes-

ite, which previously

belonged to Ginty Paul,

an eccentric recluse

with whom Czajkowski

became quite intrigued.

Accounts of Ginty

vary greatly. Some lo-

cals remember her as

a cheerful woman, al-

ways laughing, while

others feared her vola-

tile temper.

This fascinating

character comes alive

as Czajkowski inter-

sperses her own expe-

riences with excerpts

from Ginty’s letters and

documents, as well as

accounts of this peculiar

woman from friends

and neighbors.

Ginty’s Ghost is a sto-

ry about two unconven-

tional women who have

lived remarkable lives,

immersed in B.C.’s

spectacular wilderness.

Performers roll out best of the Hayride

# The gang’s all here as Gil Risling, Adam Fitzpatrick, Andrea Anderson, Patrick Ryley, Wil-liam Brookfield and Mike Melnichuk are ready to perform in the Best of the Louisiana Hayride.

Optometrists take on diabetes

According to the Canadian Diabetes Associa-

tion, more than three million children and adults

in Canada alone have diabetes. That’s more than

10 per cent of the population.

People with diabetes are at increased risk for

eye complications, and most people with diabetes

will get some form of retinopathy, a disorder or

deterioration of the retina. People with diabetes

also have a higher risk of blindness than people

without diabetes. The earlier these problems are

diagnosed, the more successful the treatments can

be.

To aid in this fight, optometrists from Shuswap

Optometric Centre, Dr. Robert Allaway, Dr. Alan

Ewanyshyn, Dr. Tracy Thompson, and Dr. Lauren

Koch are joining with optometrists across the

country to raise awareness of this problem and its

treatability. Throughout November, Shuswap Op-

tometric Centre will be providing a variety of edu-

cational and awareness building efforts for pa-

tients in the hope of diagnosing this disorder be-

fore it affects their sight.

“You will see this topic featured on our website

at www.shuswapoptometric.ca as well as our

Facebook page as we try to reach as many of our

community members as possible,” says Dr. Alla-

way of Shuswap Optometric Centre, with offices

in Salmon Arm and Chase. “This is a very pre-

ventable and treatable disorder and education is

our best weapon.”

Also during the month of November, Shuswap

Optometric Centre will be donating $5 for every

diabetic eye exam they perform and another $1 to

the Canadian Diabetes Association for each Face-

book “like” they receive on their fan page.

Dealing with stigma of dementiaSalmon Arm families

living with the impact of dementia are also cop-ing with stigma, accord-ing to a new study.

Nearly three-quarters of people with demen-tia, and 64 per cent of family caregivers, be-lieve there are negative associations for those diagnosed with demen-tia, says Alzheimer’s Disease International.

Another alarming sta-

tistic revealed in the re-port: 40 per cent of people with dementia say they have been treated differently.

The report puts a spotlight on stigma as a real issue that impacts individuals and families who are living with Al-zheimer’s disease,” says Michelle Hallgren, the local support and educa-tion coordinator for Salmon Arm and the

North Central Okana-gan for the non-profit Alzheimer Society of B.C.

A free local support and information group serves as a forum for sharing practical tips and strategies for coping with the disease. For more information con-tact Hallgren toll-free at 1-800-634-3399 or email [email protected].

Individuals from different areas and neighbourhoods within the Electoral Area who best demonstrate the following will be recommended to the CSRD Board of Directors for appointment:

• an interest and passion for sustainable community development;

• a desire to share knowledge and experience in a range of subjects relevant to planning and development (e.g. housing, agriculture, construction, parks, environment, youth, seniors, business, geography, engineering, education, arts and culture).

Expressions of Interest forms are available on the CSRD website (www.csrd.bc.ca) and at the CSRD offi ce.

Salmon Arm resident Selina Metcalfe an-nounced last summer that after three years she could no longer be the go-to volunteer for car seat questions and seat checks.

Plans are in place to bring an instructor to

town to train a new batch of technicians who could take on this much-needed service for Salmon Arm and surrounding areas. In-structor Jen Shapka, with the Child Passen-ger Safety Association of Canada, has seen onl

three perfect seat in-stallations in the hun-dreds she’s checked. That rate of misuse is not acceptable.

Shapka is coming to Salmon Arm from Van-couver Island to teach a car seat technician (CRST) training course

to certify 10 new tech-nicians. The course is 2.5 days long and is scheduled to run on Nov. 23-25, culminat-ing in a free public seat check event to give the new technicians hands-on experience and local families access to qual-

ity help. The cost is $175 and includes all materials, fees, and personal liability insur-ance upon completion.

To register or for more information, con-tact Jen Shapka at [email protected].

Community forum on palliative careAn action plan for palliative

care will be a step closer to reality

following a Nov. 14 community

forum.

The delivery of palliative-end-

of-life care in the Shuswap has

been identifi ed as an area need-

ing improvement.

The forum will feature the re-

sults of a community survey that

was carried out in the summer, an

opportunity to share ideas on how

palliative care can be improved

and a discussion on next steps.

Organizers are hoping for a

good turnout at the Nov. 14 fo-

rum to be held at 6:30 p.m. at the

Prestige Harbourfront Resort.

“Sooner or later, we all die, so

we’re all potential consumers,”

says Dr. Adele Preto.

Movember prep # Martina Bopp of Martina’s Classic Barber Shoppe gives Salmon Arm SilverBack’s gener-al manager Troy Mick, defenceman Bennett Hambrook, marketing director Josh Gordon and head coach Scott Robinsona a quick lesson on the straight razor before applying it to Salmon Arm GM’s Richard Dahlen. Representing the Salmon Arm SilverStaches and the GM Super-Staches, the men were having their faces prepped Thursday to grow moustaches for the Mo-vember Canada prostate fundraiser and awareness campaign.

First time # SilverBacks forward Bryden Marsh celebrates his first BCHL goal during Saturday’s 2-1 overtime loss to the Nanaimo Clippers. The night before the’Backs defeated West Kelowna 4-2. The SilverBacks host the Surrey Eagles Friday and play Saturday in West Kelowna.

# Kelowna scores the first touchdown of the game for the Sun Devils de-spite the best efforts of #21 Luke Matheson of the Salmon Arm Peewee Colts Sunday in Kelowna.

It’s a wrap for ColtsThe Salmon Arm Pee Wee Colts

season came to a close Sunday on

the losing end of 13-6 score against

third-place West Kelowna. Each Colt

gave it their all, but the fuel tank ran

out in the second half. With a short

bench, many Colts had to play both

offence and defence the entire game.

This season was a developing year for

the team, who always played a strong

fi rst half.

The 2012 Peewee Colts, coaches

Mark Lindgren, Rob Seaman, Ron

Blackburn, Aronn Heckrodt, Shawn

Casimiri, Matt Bacon, and team man-

ager Bonnie House appreciate all the

parents for their support and cheers

from the sidelines.

The coaches also appreciate the

Colts themselves for always seeing

the fun side of football regardless of

the score.

Broncos face hungry LionsThe Salmon Arm JB Broncos

played in the fi rst-round playoffs

and defeated the Kelowna JB Drag-

on by a score of 36-12.

The Broncos’ offence started

slowing in the fi rst half but luck-

ily the defence did not and kept the

Dragons at bay. In the second half,

the Bronco offence woke up and

began to tally up some drives and

scores behind a strong power run

game led by tailback Jayden Mou-

rato.

With both a strong Bronco offence

and defence in the second half, all

the Dragons could do was watch.

The entire Bronco defence de-

serves mention but the play of Reil-

ly Jacques, Mathew Nesdoly and

Jacob Morland was exceptional

The Broncos now face the fi rst-

place and former 2011 BC Provin-

cial Champions, the Kelowna Lions.

The game goes Sunday in Kelowna.

Varsity Golds shut outIt was one of the toughest seasons

ever for the Salmon Arm Varsity

Golds.

The winless Golds were defeated

by the formidable Mt. Boucherie

Bears last Friday at the Apple Bowl

in Kelowna with a 41-0 score.

The Bears’ win completed an un-

defeated season in the Okanagan and

wrapped up what one sports reporter

termed, “a valiant but frustrating sea-

son” for the Salmon Arm team.

For the cause#Shuswap In-ferno ringette team members Danika Sholinder, Shea-han Wonacott, Emily Williams, Cassidy Brown, Courtney Bacon and Mhari Run-ciman pile con-tainers onto the truck during the team’s fundrais-ing bottle drive held recently.

# David Shiner, Rachael Jeffery, Tina Schoenbach and Rob Sengotta watch some of the on-ice antics during the 17th annual Canadian Cancer Society’s Funspiel held Sunday at the Salmon Arm Curling Club.

After 17 years, it was once again a

sunny event.

The 17th Annual Canadian Cancer

Society Funspiel was held Sunday at

the Salmon Arm Curling Rink.

The theme this year was tropical

and many of the teams were dressed

up in grass skirts, leis and beach

attire.

A huge silent auction added to the

fun and fundraising, with items and

gift certifi cates coming from many

local businesses.

Thirty-two rinks participated in

this funspiel supported by team

sponsors, many of whom return year

after year.

The winning team was Masonic

Lodge # 52, made up of Doug

Ramsbottom – skip, Ron Brown –

third, Doug Toop – second, Gary

Carlson – lead.

The second-place fi nishers were

the Brian Maurer rink, and third

place was the Salmon Arm Savings

and Credit Union team.

Collectively over the past 17

years, thousands of dollars have

been raised in Salmon Arm, with

this event intended to:

•Fund continued research to

enable the discovery of new ways to

prevent, diagnose and treat cancer.

•Provide continued support for

programs that will enhance the

quality of life for those dealing with

the disease.

•Increase public awareness

through education of the risks of the

disease as about half of all cancers

are preventable.

•Enable continued access to

the Cancer Information line and

directory where everyone can get

current and credible information.

The curling club appreciates all

those who participated, donated

goods and supported the fundraiser,

including much gratitude for the

tireless volunteers of the Salmon

Arm Cancer Society for all their

hard work.

What does $1,000 a

month buy an MLA in

Victoria?

In the case of Kev-

in Krueger, MLA

for Kamloops South

Thompson, it’s a pad in

an RV lot for the fifth

wheel trailer that serves

as his home base when

he’s at the legislature.

Krueger claimed

$6,000 in accommoda-

tion expenses between

April 1 and September

30, 2012, according to

the MLA travel expense

documents released

Oct. 31.

While the last legis-

lative session ended on

May 31, Krueger said

he’s often in the capital

for other reasons — and

was on his way there for

a function as he spoke

to KTW.

“Even when we’re

not in session, we have

committee meetings,

caucus meetings, lots of

times when we have to

meet,” he said.

There are a few op-

tions for MLAs who

have to travel to Vic-

toria from other parts

of the province, each

which has a differ-

ent maximum amount

which can be claimed.

For those who rent

or buy a place to stay

in the capital, as Krue-

ger does, the monthly

maximum is $1,000.

While the rent on his

RV pad is more like

$1,400 in the summer

months, he said it drops

in the winter and the

amount averages out to

about $1,000 a month.

“I just go with that,”

he said. “It’s less ac-

counting and hotels are

much more expensive

for me.”

During the same

period, Krueger also

claimed $2,498 in per

diem expenses. MLAs

get a per diem of $61

per day while in Victo-

ria on legislative busi-

ness.

Krueger also claimed

$13,439 in general trav-

el expenses, and $2,376

in in-constituency trav-

el.

According to his ex-

pense summary, North

Kamloops MLA Terry

Lake claimed only

$5,959 in total travel

expenses for the same

six-month period.

However, that

amount doesn’t include

expenses racked up in

his role as Minister of

the Environment, which

are posted separately on

the province’s “open

government” website.

The most recent min-

isterial expense report

for Lake, from August

2012, shows he has just

under $20,000 in travel

expenses for the year at

that time.

Neither regular or

ministerial expense re-

ports include details of

where MLAs traveled,

how the got there, or

where they dined.

Jethro Morris and Kennedy Erbin, this year’s first two Official Green Kids Club members, hold up a banner rep-resenting their achievement.

Every four years people

from across the country and

around the world visit Roder-

ick Haig Brown Park to wit-

ness one of nature’s greatest

stories – the return of the Ad-

ams River sockeye salmon.

The Adams River Nature

Society (ARNS) is working

on a project to create an “app”

that brings the experience of

the sockeye salmon run into

the palm of your hand: a tablet

game with enriched and in-

teractive content that tells the

sockeye story.

The app will allow users

to virtually adopt a salmon

and take care of it from egg

to adult, through stages of its

perilous journey from the Ad-

ams River to the Pacifi c Ocean

and home again, using mo-

bile smart phones, tablets and

classroom smartboards.

The next big salmon run is

in 2014. To develop, deploy,

test and market the Adopt-A-

Salmon App, the project is

seeking funding. Last week,

ARNS received a $4,000 grant

for the project from the Shus-

wap Community Foundation.

The project has been taken

on by Toronto’s Small Change

organization and gifts to the

fund will be used to design

and develop the app, and pay

programmers and graphic art-

ists for their work.

Funds raised from the app

itself will be directed toward

the society’s ultimate goal of

acquiring the property located

next to Roderick Haig-Brown

Provincial Park in order to

protect sockeye salmon and

other species of fi sh and en-

hance fi sh habitat.

What’s On in Chase

Five hundred-plus

fans and volunteers

took in two games last

weekend that rocked

the rink.

Apologies are ex-

tended to those who

live in the proximity of

Art Holding Arena be-

cause when each game

was over the fans were

loud and proud.

Friday night, Nov. 2

saw the Grizzlies from

Revelstoke come to

town. So far this year

they’ve had the Heat’s

number but not on this

evening. In a battle be-

tween two teams that

highlighted fast skat-

ing and hard hitting,

the local side took a

5-3 victory.

Captain Kurtis

Johnson opened scor-

ing, assisted by Shelby

Kostyshen and Reece

Forman. The grumpy

bears got that one back

before Kostyshen got

one assisted by McK-

enzie Guardiero and

Johnson.

Johnson potted his

second goal in the sec-

ond frame, with assists

from Catlin McLeod

and Kostyshen. Rev-

elstoke scored to get

it close.

In the third period,

the Heat scored twice

and Grizzlies once.

Kostyshen got his sec-

ond goal, assisted by

Ryan Beach and Wade

Cline. Johnson com-

pleted scoring into an

empty net, assisted by

Forman.

Johnson got the hat

trick along with an as-

sist, while Kostyshen

tallied two goals and

two assists. Jacob

Mattes faced 42 shots

between the pipes.

On Saturday, Nov.

3 the Penticton Lak-

ers came to town to

face the Heat. Chase

got two first period

goals – the first by Re-

ece Forman, assisted

by McLeod and Levi

Chamberlain. The sec-

ond goal was by Ethan

Kalugin, assisted by

Aiden Silzer-Hooker.

There was no scoring

in the second period,

with Chase sandwich-

ing one in the third

frame between two

Laker goals, courtesy

of Johnson from For-

man and Kostyshen.

Devon Pearson faced

23 shots for the win.

The Heat play host

to the Kelowna Chiefs

on Thursday night,

Nov. 8, and then head

to Armstrong for a Fri-

day night tilt versus

the North Okanagan

Knights. The Heat siz-

zled all weekend and

currently are very hot

entertainment.

Heat live up to name in weekend action

Chase curlers first

pancake breakfast of

the season was so suc-

cessful, they already

have another one in the

works.

The Chase Curling

Rink will be hosting

their second pancake

breakfast of the season

on Dec. 2.

Volunteers will be

serving up food from

9 a.m. until noon, so

even the late risers can

swing on by.

Chase residents are

invited to come and

enjoy some tasty, lo-

cally-purchased food

and help support their

local curling club while

doing it.

The Chase curlers

would also like to ex-

tend a thank you to all

their volunteers who

had worked their fin-

gers to the bone during

their last fundraiser,

as well as their many

hungry patrons who

stopped by the curling

rink.

This event saw such

a successful turnout

that the club is now

planning to host the

event on the first Sun-

day of every month.

Debris coming to North America from the earth-quakes, tsunamis and nu-clear accidents in Japan in September 2011 is not ex-pected to be as bad as first

anticipated. Coun. Ken Jamieson re-

layed this information at a recent meeting of Salmon Arm council after attending a session at the Union of BC Municipalities convention last month.

He said the main part of

the debris will probably land on North American shores in the winter months of 2013/2014.

“It’s not as bad as expect-ed, but it is still causing a lot of concern,” he said, noting that a number of jurisdic-tions have come together to

deal with and monitor the potentially radioactive de-bris, including Alaska, B.C., the Canadian and U.S. gov-ernments, as well as U.S. states bordering the Pacific.

“The second thing is there’s no radiation showing up on any of the debris,

mainly because the explo-sions and break down of (nuclear) plants came after the tsunamis hit. Most is on the floor of the ocean near Japan. Volunteers up and down the continent’s coast are cleaning up.”

Last month, a Japanese

National Police Agency re-port confirmed 15,870 deaths, 6,114 injured, and 2,814 people missing in the aftermath of the earthquakes and tsunamis. Five million tonnes of debris is estimated to have gone into the ocean following the tsunami.

Rotary International is well known for the good works it does around the globe, various projects in many countries undertaken by local Rotarians and supported by monies from the Rotary Foundation. The Foundation is the monetary arm of the Rotary International, established to allow for a sustainable monetary resource to support projects Internationally; projects such as Polio Plus (to eradicate polio) and the building of schools, digging wells, sending Dentists and Surgeons to help in some of the poorer places and too many more to mention. Promoting Peace is a major goal of Rotary International and

towards this we have been involve in the Youth Exchange programme and the Ambassadorial Scholarship and Peace Scholar Programmes. Another International project is the exchange of vocational groups between countries to learn about how business is done in another culture. In the past it has been a group of business people from mixed vocations. The new focus will be to a single vocation within the group to allow for a more tailored experience.

This past September Shuswap Rotary was pleased to welcome our District Governor, Doug Everett and his lovely wife Jacquie. While he was

here he did us the honour of presenting a Paul Harris Fellow. This Fall we have presented several other PHF’s to members, past members and wives of members and have one more yet to present.

A Paul Harris Fellow – What’s that?

The work of Rotary both within our own country and in the world cannot happen on a continued basis without the Foundation. A Paul Harris Fellow is someone who has donated $1000.00 to the Foundation. As recognition they receive a Certi cate and a pin. For every $1000 after the initial donation they receive a PHF with a + designating the number of

times they have reached the Paul Harris Fellow level. Anyone can donate to the Rotary Foundation. It is usually done through a Rotary Club or a friend who is a member of a club.

Shuswap Rotary has

been a part of the Youth exchange since our beginning here in Salmon Arm. This year we are welcoming Emma Rosell from Sweden and have sent Derek St Onge to Cuenca Ecuador. Derek is looking forward to working with Dr Gene Tymkiw and his dental team when their group arrives for a Surgical/Dental Mission to the hill country above Cuenca.

November is Foundation Month

Thank you…Thank you to everyone who honked, waved or gave thumbs up on

October 24 at Alexander and Trans Canada Highway for our Polio Awareness campaign.

A special thanks to the gentleman who stopped to donate to the cause.

To date, Rotary has donated more than $1 billion U.S. towards the eradication of Polio.

Due to the work of Global Polio Eradication Initiative, more than seven million people, mainly in the developing world, who would otherwise be paralyzed are walking because they have been immunized against Polio.

A child is given the polio immunization in drop form.

Dr. Gene Tymkiw with his Dental Assistant Donna Cook at the Esperanza Medical and Dentistry Mission in Ecuador. The mission provides priority orthopaedic surgery and dental care in that country. Dr. Tymkiw will attend his third dental mission in Ecuador in February.

Bring on Movember # USNR employees Larry Petryshen, Chris Marshall, Rob Seaman and Dave McFadden mug up in front of team leader Kelly McDonald before having their faces (and heads) shaved in preparation for Movember. The team is raising funds and awareness about men’s health – in particular prostate cancer – for Movember Canada.

LACHLAN LABERE/MARKET NEWS

B.C. does about-face on tourism policy

Three years after the

B.C. government took

over international tour-

ism marketing to direct

post-Olympic efforts,

Premier Christy Clark

has put the tourism in-

dustry back in the driv-

er’s seat.

Clark and Jobs,

Tourism and Innova-

tion Minister Pat Bell

announced the creation

of a new Crown cor-

poration Monday in

Vancouver. They said

Destination BC will be

industry led and have

formula funding from

provincial taxpayers to

advertise the province’s

attractions outside the

country. Clark said she

spoke out as a radio host

against the government

takeover when it was

announced in 2009 by

former tourism minis-

ter Kevin Krueger. The

Council of Tourism

Associations expressed

“grave concerns” at the

time, when the indus-

try-led Tourism BC was

disbanded.

Bell said Destina-

tion BC will have an

increasing emphasis on

marketing in Asia. It is

to take over responsibil-

ity April 1, 2013, us-

ing currently budgeted

funds for the first year.

After that, the intention

is to base the budget on

a legislated percentage

of annual sales revenue.

Clark and Bell took

the first step to chang-

ing tourism marketing

in October 2011, with a

$1.1 million campaign

to promote B.C. ski re-

sorts. Half the spending

went to Ontario, and the

rest was split between

Seattle, San Francisco

and Los Angeles.

NDP leader Adrian

Dix tried to pre-empt

the expected announce-

ment last week, making

his own promise that

an NDP government

would return control

over tourism marketing

to the industry.

HILDEGARD HEGEL(nee Gorray)

March 30, 1927 - September 27, 2012It’s is with the deepest sorrow that we say goodbye to our beautiful kind Mother, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother, who slipped away quietly at home after a long couragous battle with cancer. She was born in Wenna-Eickel, Germany and came to Canada in May 1948 with her husband Herman and daughter Renate. Predeceased by her husband of 54 years Herman (1999) and her brother Eric Gorray (2001).

Left to chersh her memory are all her 8 loving children, Renate (Bruce) Logan, Laura (Laury) Haines, Margarete (Allan) Gouge, Jerry Hegel, Linda (Dan) Johnson, Ron (Sherri) Hegel, Ray Hegel and Rick Hegel; 13 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren. Also her good treasured friend Marianne and many friends and relatives in Germany.

We little knew that morning, that God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you. You did not go alone, for part of us went with you, the day God called you home.

You left us peaceful memories. Your love is still our guide. And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.

Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same, but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link gain.

SPALDING, JOAN MARILYN (nee Morris)Passed away peacefully

in her home at Haven Hill Retirement Centre on November 4, 2012. Marilyn was born in Guelph Ontario on March 31, 1933 to parents Evelyn and Glen.
