Mainroad East Kootenay is warning drivers to be extremely cautious on local highways over the coming days.

A weather event advisory is-sued on Wednesday, March 5, warned of black ice developing, followed by puddles, as tem-peratures rise after a cold, snowy period.

“The weather has warmed up we but we are still hovering around zero degrees Celsius in

the evenings and the mornings. Also, the ground is still frozen do to the long cold period we have had, so you can expect sections of black ice as we tran-sition. Finally, watch for pud-dles as the banks of snow begin to melt,” reads the email alert.

Mainroad will be busy pa-trolling, salting and sanding highways to improve condi-tions until the weather event passes.

Drivers are reminded to maintain a safe following dis-

tance, drop your speed to match road conditions, avoid sudden moves, and always drive with your headlights on.

“Finally, be extremely cau-tious when approaching high-way maintenance vehicles such as snow plows and salt or sand trucks,” reads the alert.

Visit www.drivebc.ca to stay up to date with road conditions.

Report any highway obser-vations or concerns to Main-road East Kootenay at 1-800-665-4929.

Drive carefully: Black ice warning for local highways

Warm days, nights below zero create treacherous conditions

Kootenay Ice player in critical conditionTOWNSMAN STAFFKootenay Ice forward

Tim Bozon has been di-agnosed with Neisseria Meningitis and is in criti-cal condition in a hospi-tal in Saskatoon.

The Ice — in conjunc-tion with the WHL and the Montreal Canadiens — officially confirmed his condition on Wednes-day afternoon, March 5.

Bozon was admitted to Royal University Hos-pital on Saturday, March 1, and public health offi-

cials are reviewing the case to ensure anyone who had direct contact

with him receives appro-priate treatment.

Meningitis is an acute inflammation of protec-tive membranes covering the brain and spinal cord, which can be caused by infection via viruses or bacteria.

Bozon’s parents, Phil-lipe and Helene, have been with him since Sun-day, flying in from Swit-zerland.

Bozon is a third-round 2012 draft pick of the Montreal Canadiens.

The majority of the physicians of the F.W. Green Medical Centre are relocating into the new Baker Street Pro-fessional Centre this

summer. The move will see

the creation of two sep-arate, smaller family practices, the FW Green Clinic and Fisher Peak Family Practice.

This renovation of the current space into

two modern medical clinic spaces with ample parking has al-lowed for clinic designs with safer and im-proved accessibility for patients with disabili-ties or injuries. With these new clinics in

place, we are confident that this will improve our chances to attract and retain new family physicians to the area and in so doing deal with the current physi-cian shortage.

The physicians

would like to thank all their staff and manager Lorraine Alderson for their professionalism and assistance at this difficult time of transi-tion.

The two clinics will be part of the conver-

Cranbrook will play host to a gathering of seven choirs from west-ern Canada and the United States in April.

The International Choral Festival will be held in Cranbrook at the Alliance Church on Saturday, April 12.

Cranbrook’s Bisset Singers, who have been members of the festival for six years, were invit-ed to host the festival in 2014.

“Each year, a choir that is a member hosts. In the concert, each choir does a set of three pieces,” explained Chuck Bisset, vocal coach and founder of the local choir.

The Bisset Singers are rehearsing Eric Whitacre’s “Sleep”, a performance of “O Magnum Mysterium” and a unique version of “I Can’t Give You Any-thing But Love”.

The local choir will be joined by choirs from throughout B.C. and Washington: the Appleaires women’s choir and Apollo Club men’s choir from Wenatchee, Washing-ton; the Washington

Camerata Club from Yakima, Washington; the Washington Village Voices from Leaven-worth, Washington; the Naramata Community Choir from Naramata, B.C.. and the Trail Har-mony Choir.

“The great crescen-do is the last three piec-es which are performed by the mass choir,” said Bisset.

Choir member Jim Abbott said that when the 380-odd voices of the combined choirs come together, it’s a special experience.

“I didn’t realize how much of a bucket list moment it would be for me to be a part of a mass choir. It’s an emo-tional thing when you have all these voices around you.”

As the event’s hosts, the Bisset Singers were able to invite another choir to join the festival. They choose the Cran-brook Elementary Schools Mass Choir.

“At the Christmas event, Chuck said, ‘Why couldn’t we have them as our voices for it?’ So we approached the teachers and in all sin-cerity said, ‘We would like to give the elemen-

Bisset Singers bring choral festival to Cranbrook

tary school students an opportunity not only to perform in front of a big audience, but also to be part of a mass choir,’” said Abbott.

The school choir will perform three songs,

and then join with the entire choral festival for one piece: a majestic Pie Jesu.

“That is the core showpiece of our per-formance,” said Abbott.

The Bisset Singers,

which has about 30 members, came togeth-er as a choir 14 years ago.

“We started off as a group voice lesson. I started the choir so people could learn to

sing,” said Bisset.Abbott added: “Bis-

set Singers is virtually an extension of Chuck’s teaching. It gives Chuck’s students a chance to take part in performance.”

Bisset said that the participation of the school students has caused a buzz in Cran-brook.

“The thing that real-ly excites me is how Cranbrook as a city seems to be really get-ting excited and em-bracing it. You have all these parents of the kids taking time out on a Saturday to get their kids to rehearsals.”

The festival weekend will kick off on Friday, April 11 from 8:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. with a wel-coming reception at the Canadian Museum of Rail Travel. The public is invited to the recep-tion, which will feature wine tasting from Wyn-nwood Cellars, beer tasting from Fisher Peak Brewing Company, and tours of the rail cars.

The festival will fea-ture two performances on Saturday, April 12 at the Cranbrook Alliance Church, a matinee at 2:30 p.m. And an eve-ning performance at 7 p.m. About 650 tickets will be available for each performance, on sale at Lotus Books in Cranbrook and the Kimberley Visitor Cen-tre for $20.

Local 1253 Cran-brook firefighters re-mind you to not only change your clock for Daylight Savings Time but the batteries in your smoke alarms, too.

“Saving your life can be as simple as chang-ing your smoke alarm batteries once a year and replacing smoke

alarms every seven to 10 years,” says Local 1253 President Clay Murrell, a firefighter in Cranbrook. Special smoke alarms are even available for those who are deaf or hearing im-paired.

The NFPA reports that working smoke alarms cut the risk of dying in a home fire in

half. Research has also demonstrated that pho-toelectric smoke alarms are more effective at warning people of smoke from smoldering fires than ionization smoke alarms. With earlier warning, people have more time to es-cape a burning struc-ture and call 9-1-1.

Firefighters recom-

mend installing a dual purpose smoke alarm in every bedroom, out-side of every bedroom and on each floor of your home.

“You should also in-stall carbon monoxide alarms in your home and check them once a month,” says Murrell. Carbon monoxide fumes are poisonous

and will increase the in-tensity of a fire if ignit-ed.

More than 2,300 people die each year in home fires. Having a smoke alarm and car-bon monoxide alarm that works 24 hours a day greatly increases your chance of survival if your home catches on fire.

Clocks spring forward this SundayAnd don’t forget to change your smoke alarm batteries while you’re at it

“Discussions are in progress with various specialists and compli-mentary practices and will be announced at a later date,” said Chad Jensen, president of the Baker Street Profession-al Centre and New Dawn Developments, which is handling the

renovations.“The response from

the medical communi-ty has been greater than anticipated. Interest has been great and quicker than expected.”

The two family clin-ics will move into the space previously occu-pied by Giant Tiger. Demolition is com-plete, Jensen said, and renovations will begin once permit approvals have been secured from the City of Cranbrook.

Creating a bridge between Cranbrook’s art scene and sport scene, the Cranbrook and District Arts Coun-cil is holding an art ex-

hibition for the month of March titled “Slap-shot – Sport in Art”.

Local artists submit-ted their sport themed work to the gallery to be on display from Tues-

day, March 4 to Friday, March 28.

The Cranbrook and District Arts Council also worked with Exec-utive Director Derryll White from the Colum-

bia Basin Institute of Regional History to cre-ate a Kootenay area hockey history exhibit to run alongside the artwork for the month of March. Included in the exhibit are interest-ing historical photos like the Fernie Swasti-kas all-women’s team formed in 1922, Cran-brook’s Rosebud wom-en’s hockey team, the Kimberley Dynamiters playing in Davos, Swit-zerland in 1937 and more.

CDAC also wel-comes the public to stop by the gallery and contribute to an ongo-ing interactive installa-tion for the month of March. They can come into the gallery and add their favourite hockey jersey(s) to the Hockey Pride Wall and, if they choose, put up a Post-it with a comment about how hockey or sports have impacted their lives.

All jerseys can be dropped off at the gal-lery Tuesdays to Fridays from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The jer-

seys must come with the name of person who is submitting and contact information to ensure the safe return of jerseys (contact in-formation will not be shared).

The opening night reception for “Slapshot – Sport in Art” will be held on Thursday, March 6 from 7 p.m. to

9 p.m. and is a fun, fam-ily-friendly event where the public can attend a meet and greet with Kootenay Ice players and the artists of the ex-hibition. There will be a colouring competition for kids, face painting, a jersey decorating sta-tion, drinks and Game Night snacks!

“We wanted to bring

together two seemingly different worlds and create a form of sport/art blending,” said CDAC administrator Marisa Phillips. “Seeing as how the Kootenay Ice are such an import-ant part of Cranbrook’s hockey identity, we wanted to bring their presence into this event too.”

Tories mull more relaxed pot laws

The penalty for getting busted for small amounts of marijuana may be less harsh in the future.

Ba r ry Co u lt e rLooser marijuana

possession rules could be on the horizon. The federal government is considering letting po-lice issue a ticket to any-one caught with small amounts of pot, rather than laying criminal charges.

Justice Minister Peter MacKay said Wedneday that draft legislation that would loosen federal marijuana laws is under “serious consideration.’’

A growing number of Conservative caucus members have come out in support of chang-ing the current laws, in-cluding Kootenay-Co-lumbia MP David Wilks, a former police officer himself.

“The Canadian

Chiefs of Police and other police associa-tions have said for some time now that our mari-juana laws, with regards to small amounts, are not working,” Wilks told the Townsman Wednes-day. “It’s dysfunctional in the courts and we need to find a better process.”

“The Canadian Chiefs of Police came forward with the poten-tial for a ticketing re-gime. That seems to me as a police officer who dealt a lot with the drug trade that it’s a reason-able compromise that I think would work well.”

Currently, a person found guilty of posses-sion of small amounts of marijuana could be jailed up to five years. A

first-time offender could be fined up to $1,000 or face up to six months in jail.

“I’m looking forward to modernizing our drug laws, especially with regards to simple possession,” said Wilks. “I believe that it’s a long time overdue, and it will work well. If it should move forward I should be happy to support it.”

“We’re not talking about decriminalization or legalization,” MacKay said Wednesday.

“The Criminal Code would still be available to police, but we would look at options that would ... allow police to ticket those types of of-fences.”

Kimberley races attract national teamCarolyN GraNtAfter a couple of days

of practice and speed camp, they are racing at the Kimberley Alpine Resort.

A very special event,

a night slalom, will be run on the Main under the lights tonight, Thurs-day, March 6, at approx-imately 5 p.m.

Ski racers don’t get the opportunity to do a

lot of night racing, and therefore the Kimberley race is attracting some top competitors. Nation-al Team members Erik Read, Sasha Zaitsoff, Paul Stutz, William St-Germain and Tyler Werry will race along with B.C. Team mem-bers Charlie Field, Emma King, Alix Wells, Blake Ramsden, Brodie Seger, Martin Grasic, Patrick Carry and Domi-nic Unterberger. This will be a great event for spectators, and race or-ganizers invite one and all to watch.

The first race in the FIS Keurig races went on

Tuesday and Emma King of the Whistler Mountain Ski Club took top prize in one minute, 12.75 seconds, in what were described as tough, fast conditions.

Joining King on the podium were Rebecca Bermel of the Winder-mere Valley Ski Club in 1:12.90, and Mikayla Martin of the Whistler Mountain Ski Club in 1:13.37.

In the men’s compe-tition, Steven Fry of the Windermere Valley Ski Club, and winner of two of the three training runs, was consistent on race day to take the gold

in 1:10.11. Two Whistler Mountain Ski Club ath-letes, Cameron Alexan-der and Jack Crawford rounded out the podium finishing 2nd (1:10.99) and 3rd (1:11.24) re-spectively.

The FIS Keurig Super G, Downhill and Slalom will run until Friday, March 7. The event has attracted over 90 ath-letes from Canada, Aus-tralia, Ireland, Japan, New Zealand, and USA and includes local racers Rebecca Bermel (Cran-brook), Gina Norton (Kimberley) and several Windermere Valley ath-letes.

SuBmit ted Penticton city coun-

cil has called a sudden halt to its urban deer re-location plans.

Days after receiving an unexpected list of conditions from the province, council decid-ed Monday night to drop controversial plans to trap and relocate deer to a rural location on the Penticton Indian Re-serve.

The Ministry of For-ests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations said in a letter City Hall received last Friday that it has several concerns over the proposal.

Andrew Walker, a wildlife biologist with the ministry, noted the province has never par-ticipated in or support-ed previous deer reloca-tion efforts.

“Although the non-lethal approach to urban deer manage-ment may appeal to the public as it appears to be an easy and humane solution, in reality the translocation process can be difficult, expen-

sive, stressful to the deer and has resulted in high post-translocation mortality rates,” he stat-ed.

Walker said the prov-ince won’t grant permits for deer relocation pro-grams unless a munici-pality meets such re-quirements as:

• Create and enforce a no deer feeding bylaw.

• Develop an urban deer management com-mittee to create a deer management plan and conduct urban deer counts.

• Assess hunting op-portunities, locations and methods within municipal boundaries.

• Monitor complaints about aggressive deer encounters.

• Survey local resi-dents about urban deer management.

Walker said Pentic-ton’s proposed trapping and relocation plan was found lacking in a num-ber of these areas, in-cluding an assessment or consultation with the Canadian Food Inspec-tion Agency.

Penticton kills relocation plan

THURSDAY, MARCH 6, 2014

I ran into Danielle Cardozo the other day, on Monday, at the Save-On in Cran-brook. I told her good luck, and men-

tioned how geared up everyone was for that night’s episode of Master-Chef Canada, on which Danielle is a contestant and who has made it, as of this writing, into the Top 10, sur-viving elimination and un-der-going intense and strange cooking challenges.

As we had our brief con-versation, I felt a curious sense of disloca-tion, like the fabric of the time-space con-tinuum had become unglued. After all, Danielle was appearing that night on Mas-terChef Canada, staged in Toronto, and yet here she was, in the Save-On in Cranbrook, on her way to the Heid-Out Restaurant in Cranbrook.

Is it possible that Danielle Cardozo could be in two places at once?

Further, I understood, intellectually, that Episode 7 of MasterChef Canada had already been taped, that it has in fact hap-pened in the past, yet the outcome is un-known to all of us. I assume the contes-tants are aware of the fates of those in-volved in Episode 7, yet are sworn to se-crecy. This, combined with the high drama of Episode 7, where Danielle had to cook a cow’s tongue, Dora the cheeks and Karla the cow’s brains, etc, with Dora eventually getting eliminated from the show, added to my sense that something was not quite right with time. Was Epi-

sode 7 happening in the past, or was it really happening in the present, and my brief conversation with Danielle really happening in the future? Or did my con-

versation with Danielle ac-tually happen several weeks before I thought I was having it, and when I watched MasterChef it was several days further in the future than I thought, even though the show had been taped in the past?

Gosh, it makes me dizzy. It makes me feel like having a beer with sci-fi writer Philip K. Dick, who no doubt could explain the MasterChef time slip in a way that would not only be bizarre, paranoid, and really hard to understand, but would also be damned entertaining.

But at my age, having a beer with the intemperate Philip K. Dick would not be a good idea. Besides, Philip K. Dick is dead. Or is he?

But it’s okay. I will take on time’s tricks as they come. I know we live in a spooky world, and nothing is what it seems, as Philip K. Dick pointed out over and over.

In the meantime, the clock moves on regularly and in linear fashion, as do our TV listings, for the most part, and I know next Monday we’ll be gazing at our televi-sion devices for Episode 8, for after all, we must cheer on our neighbours when they’re cooking up tongue on the tube.

In a small town, we are invested in our neighbours. We always know what every-

body is up to. Our gaze is largely internal, towards our small town navels.

That being said, we are a big enough town that we want to be part of the action. We desire to be represented on a bigger stage, and are always tickled when one of our neighbours puts “Cranbrook on the map,” to use that oh so hackneyed phrase yet again.

Thus, we follow the adventures of Dan-ielle Cardozo with a much greater sense of personal investment, than we would, say, if we were cheering on our fellow Toronto-nian — one out of 2 million. Here in Cran-brook, we tend to feel we know each other personally, whether we do or not (well, I feel that way, anyway, and I want to invite you all over … wait, let me think about that).

A reality TV show is not the same as a deer cull debate, or a municipal referen-dum, or such things that force us to con-front our reality (in a different way than Philip K. Dick forces us to). But when our friends and neighbours are involved, reali-ty TV is more than mind candy. We’re along for the ride.

We’re cheering on Danielle Cardozo in her single culinary combat. The renown she wins is renown for us all. So stay tuned for Episode 8.

And besides, I thought the tongue looked kind of appetizing.

part of the animal should be wasted.

Museum and Archives

1900A Personal Matter ... There will be a

slight change in the editorial management of The Herald for a few months. I have ar-ranged to be absent from Cranbrook for six or seven months this summer and fall and the paper will be in charge of H. M. Wentworth, editor of The Herald when it first started, and Matt Rockendorf, who has been with me at Wardner and Cran-brook since I have been engaged in news-paper work in this district. The names of these two gentlemen is sufficient guaran-tee that the work of The Herald will be continued during my absence on the same lines that has established its reputa-tion as a friend of the people and an un-tiring worker for the best interests of the district as a whole. The reason for my temporary absence is a simple one. The average newspaper man, although labour-ing early and late for the prosperity of the community in which he lives, is not both-ered with accumulated wealth. I am one of the average, and at this time I have what seems to me an opportunity to make some money, and therefore I am going to em-brace it. I have formed a business partner-ship with William Doble, formerly of this city, and George Shier, formerly of Fort Steele, for the purpose of going to Cape Nome with a stock of general merchan-dise. We will leave Seattle on one of the first boats, and have three or four months in the new Eldorado. We may fail, but we expect success, and are willing to hustle for it. Our plans have been carefully pre-pared, and we are not going into this en-terprise with our eyes closed. To the people of Cranbrook, I have only words of thanks and praise. They are the best lot of people any newspaper man ever had to deal with, and my return this fall will be looked forward to with pleasing anticipa-tions. F. E. Simpson, Editor, The Herald.

The Strathcona Horse have left Otta-wa for Halifax … Letter from Walt Ed-wards. Ottawa, Feb. 27, 1900. Dear Friend Eneas: Hello Old Fatty! How are they using you anyway? They are not using me any too bad. It was pretty hard on us the first few days, but we are getting used to it now. We drill about four hours a day, two in the morning and two in the afternoon. We

have about 300 horses here now, but have not used any of them yet. There seems to be some pretty hard tickets among them. There have been about six fellows kicked by them already. They roll us out of bed at 5:30 in the morning to get out and take care of the horses. It has been very cold here the last two or three days. We have got our uniforms, four suits altogether. More clothes than I ever had in my life before. In fact, I hardly know what to do with them. Of course if I had them in No. 10 I suppose you, McNeil and Brock would have a suit apiece, and I would be as poor as ever. This is a great town. On Saturday nights and Sundays, (Charlie says), you have to beg to get a drink. Ike Foster is the life of the camp. Jack Bonsfield is down home at Toronto for a few days. All the boys are pretty well done up with colds. We are on the exhibition grounds. We bunk in the stables and they are a little airy. We get pretty good grub, but are only allowed out till 9:30, unless we have a spe-cial pass, as they call the roll at 9:30, but we often go out and stay later than that and make a special pass of our own through the fence. I suppose McNeil and Spellman are with you yet. We saw Jim-mie’s mother and brother as we passed through Winnipeg. They were afraid that Jimmie was with us. We should soon have a pay day, and I don’t know what I will do with all the money — four bits a day. If I get it I will get my photos taken and send them down to the boys, we’re all about broke now, so we have to keep pretty quiet. Well, this is all the news I know at present, and I hope that this letter finds yourself and all the boys well, as it leaves all the boys here. They all send best re-gards and wish to be remembered to all. I think if you answer this letter right away it will catch us here, and I will write you again before I leave. The same old chick-en, Walt Edwards.

A New Feature ... E. H. Small, propri-etor of the Cosmopolitan, has inaugurated a new feature in the way of Sunday din-ners. With a dining room double the size of the old one, he is able to handle large crowds with ease, and last Sunday he had the first of his series of family dinners. E. E Orchard, the Chef, had a magnificent bill prepared, and the dining room was crowd-ed. Prof. Fred Shaw, the pianist, furnished the music, and the whole thing was a great success.

Got Their Heads Examined ... A blind phrenologist has been examining the

heads of many of the boys the past week, and has told the owners a number of things that makes them feel better. The average man loves to be told that a bump or depression on his cranium indicates power for love, ability to govern, faculty of acquiring coin of the realm, or any old thing. It don’t make any difference how he got the bump, he will get down from the stage firm in the conviction that the Lord intended him for greater things, and cruel fate had intervened her clammy hand and yanked him away from prosperity and fame. The game is easy, and there are new ones to play every day. A few catch phras-es like “material matter”, “potential func-tions”, “ mediaeval mediocrity ” and “aus-pinarious aphorisms” do the business and cause the coin to drop into the hat.

New School … Cranbrook’s second school was opened Tuesday in one of the rooms of the Aiken Block, with Miss Dyker as teacher.

1901 Census Figures … The census of Moyie

was taken last week, showing the present population to be 845. The St. Eugene mine was closed at the time the count was made and 150 men which they employ were out of town, thus Moyie has a population of 1,000 and is speedily growing.

New Baptist Church ... Work was com-menced this week on the new Baptist Church, and it will be pushed forward as rapidly as possible. The building will be 30 by 46, with an alcove, and plastered throughout. The site is an excellent one, being about half way between the Catholic Church and Baker Hill. This will give five churches to Cranbrook and they are all located on the same street.

Mail Holdup … All mail matter going west from South East Kootenay is held up at Kootenay Landing under orders from Nelson authorities, until it has been prop-erly fumigated. There were only two cases in the whole district — one is recovered and the other nearly so.

New Laundry … There is a prospect now of Cranbrook securing an up-to-date steam laundry. Such an enterprise would receive a liberal support, not only in Cran-brook, but throughout the district. Cran-brook is an ideal place for such an institu-tion, as it is in the centre of the district, which would facilitate the transaction of business with all the other towns.

It happened this week in Cranbrook

Letters to the editordamaged traps

I’ve been wondering how long it will take for the Animal Alliance and the Deer Protection Society to distance themselves from their representative who was arrested for “allegedly” destroying our clover traps.

They all like to talk about the waste of taxpayers’ dollars so I can’t see any reason why these people should not step forward to refund us taxpayers for the damaged/destroyed deer traps, as well as all of the additional expenses incurred by the RCMP and the courts. I know I certainly don’t want to pay for it.

We will be expecting to hear that you will do the honorable thing and soon be reimbursing us.

A recent Bulletin reader wrote com-

plaining that he/she was not informed that the traps were being set.

I think you need to come out of your tunnel; your vision seems to be impaired. News of the cull has been reported on the radio and in the newspaper for months based on a democratic decision made by your elected City Councillors.

And what would be the point of phon-ing you up so you can plan a negative media blitz and invite unwanted vigilantes to our city? We don’t need or want these night stalkers.

It is also interesting to read about the threats emanating out of Toronto regard-ing our business. Ms. White claims that we will suffer dire consequences if she and her society don’t get their way. Well, as a per-son very familiar with the western part of

Canada, I don’t think I could find a single person that would give two cents for the opinion of a person in Toronto.

Going back to “The Crow Rate”, there has never been any desire to entertain eastern opinions or solutions to our prob-lems.

Now it’s not as though Toronto doesn’t have its own problems right now. Might I suggest that we have amazing dogs in Kim-berley that could do a wonderful job of hazing the Mayor from their fair City? He doesn’t seem to be that fleet-of-foot so hazing should work quite nicely. Problem solved.

John Morris and B.C. hold top spot at BrierSCOT T EDMONDS

Canadian Press

KAMLOOPS, B.C. - It looks like all that’s left is a duel for fourth place after the top three teams extended their leads in morning and afternoon draws at the Canadian men’s curling championship Wednes-day.

John Morris and B.C. scored a big five in the third end and coast-ed to an 8-3 win in eight over Ontario’s Greg Balsdon at the Tim Hor-tons Brier.

At 8-1, B.C. was at least temporarily alone in top spot, although Alberta at 7-1 was curl-ing Ontario in the eve-ning draw at the Tim Hortons Brier.

But Morris still had his eyes firmly focused on Thursday morning, when a win over Mani-toba would guarantee him a spot in the one-two game of the play-offs.

“We want that one-two game,” he said. “If we win tomorrow morning we’re in the one-two game.”

Ontario and Sas-katchewan weren’t quite eliminated from the third spot, at least in theory, but they would need to win out with games left against the leaders, starting with Ontario vs. Alberta

Wednesday night.The hometown

crowd has been loud and proud as Morris and Kamloops native Jim Cotter have shot the lights out since their one early loss in the fourth draw to Quebec. Those fans did the best to raise the roof after Cotter tapped an On-tario stone out to score that five.

“It was a real tough shot but it’s a crowd pleaser and it’s a real lift for our team, so it’s ex-citing,” said Morris.

Manitoba’s Jeff Stoughton continued to keep the leaders in sight with a 7-4 win over Steve Laycock of Sas-katchewan. That left Manitoba at 7-2 and Saskatchewan at 4-3, tied with Ontario.

Stoughton and third John Mead looked a lot more in control, al-though they also bene-fited from Laycock’s mistakes.

“We got a great deuce in the first end and then it was pretty mistake free,” he said. “A lot of great shots made, you have to do that, and it felt pretty good all around for all of our guys.”

Stoughton got a chance to rest Wednes-day night but he’s just as keen as Morris to win Thursday morning and

get into that one-two game.

“We place B.C. which is a huge game for us. We play them in the morning and that could mean getting into the one-two game which is very import-ant.”

They then face Bals-don and Ontario and the rookie has made a strong showing at his first Brier.

He lost to Morris in a disappointing perfor-mance at the Olympic Trials in Winnipeg in December. Morris went on to the final where he lost to Brad Jacobs.

Cotter, who throws fourth stones for B.C., has gained a lot of con-fidence and it shows, said Stoughton.

“I think John’s just brought so much confi-dence to that team. He’s made them believe that they’re a great team, which they obviously are.”

Morris was ranked as the top third (based on the stones he throws), Cotter the top skip and Rick Sawatsky the top lead in cumula-tive percentages after the first two draws Wednesday.

Only Manitoba sec-ond Mark Nichols stopped it from being a B.C. sweep.

Morrow allows 5 runs, Blue Jays lose 6-4 to Pirates

MARK DIDTLERAssociated Press

DUNEDIN, Fla. - Brandon Morrow al-lowed five runs and six hits over three innings in the Toronto Blue Jays’ 6-4 loss Wednes-day to the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Morrow was making his second appearance since a season-ending forearm injury last May. On Feb. 28, the right-hander gave up two hits and one run in two re-lief innings.

“The important thing, I felt good again,” Morrow said. “Forearm is feeling really good. I felt loose again. I felt

good with my breaking stuff. Fastball command kind of put me in a hole a couple times.”

Morrow struck out two, walked one, hit a batter and threw a wild pitch.

“He’s big,” Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. “In a lot of ways he’s probably the most important guy, because we expected a lot out of him last year. He’s got as good an arm as any-body. When he’s on, when he’s healthy, he’s been a good big league pitcher. If he can fill that void, bounce back and have a full season out there where he doesn’t

go on the DL and you get his 30-plus starts, that will be big for us.”

Travis Snider had a first-inning RBI single and a two-run homer in the third off Morrow. Snider spent time on the disabled list last season with a left big toe injury.

“Travis worked ex-tremely hard this win-ter,” Pittsburgh manag-er Clint Hurdle said. “He’s moving so much better. Now that’s he healthy and physically ready to go, we’ll see where he can take us.”

Edwin Encarnacion had a two-run double for the Blue Jays.


SportSdaily townsman / daily bulletin

The � rst thing I ask patients trying to lose weight is; how much would you like to lose and how long did it take you to gain that much weight? Or in other words when was the last time you were the desired weight?

What this does is make people realize that they did not put 10, 20, 30 even 100 pounds on their body’s overnight and it will take just as long, if not longer to get rid of any weight that they have accumulated over the years.

There is no magic solution that will burn fat from your body. No drug, pill or surgery can help you lose weight without side effects. Counting calories is not the answer either as all calories are not created equal and the calculations are only estimates based on macronutrients. I could almost guarantee that if you ate 5000 calories of broccoli per day you would not gain weight (not that I recommend this). Low fat foods will lead to more weight gain as they contain either real or arti� cial sweeten-ers which your body converts to fat as well as other chemical additives that are harmful to cells and hormonal balance.

Hormones play a large and complex role in weight gain and weight loss that scientists and experts struggle to grasp and may never truly know the entire picture. Balancing these hormones will help you in the pursuit of weight loss, but in the absence of proper diet and exercise in daily living it will not be enough.

Fad diets can only take you so far and you may initially lose weight, but most of these are extreme and to continue with them will cause long term damage to the body. Once you cannot live off of these diets anymore your body will put the pounds right back on.

The only way to lose weight is to change your lifestyle completely and in a sustainable manner. Eating healthy every day and exer-cising regularly will help you lose weight gradually and for the long term. Foods and sweeteners that contain no calories are full of dangerous chemicals that will affect your body in ways that are just as harmful as weight gain and may even disrupt certain hor-mones leading to the weight that was attempting to be avoided.

The bottom line is that there is no quick � x for losing weight and no miraculous supplement or short term diet. The good news is that with the proper motivation and a whole foods diet, weight loss can be a healthy and sustainable goal to reach that leaves you feeling better in all aspects of your life.

Each individual should � nd their own diet, exercise routine and program that they enjoy and that best suits them, but here are some helpful tips to get you started.

Tips for weight loss

• Eat mostly whole foods that do not come from a box, can or any other packaging

• Do not eat within 3 hours of bedtime

• See a health care professional to balance hormones that may be affecting your weight

• Self-control when presented with opportunities to consume unhealthy foods

• Regulating stress through meditation, daily journaling or gratitude exercises

• At least 30 minutes of exercise daily – include weight training to gain muscle mass

• Consume 3 cups of organic green tea daily which can help increase your metabolism

• Eliminate food sensitivities from your diet

Kimberley ski racers perform in Golden

Twelve ski racers from Kimberley Alpine Team par-ticipated at the Kicking Horse Nancy Greene Invitational Race. Ski Clubs from Kimber-ley, Lake Louise, Revelstoke, Fernie and Golden attended the race.

The race consisted of a Giant Slalom course and in spite of the very strong com-petition, the Kimberley racers held Kimberley’s name up high by performing very well at the race.

Three U14 Kimberley Al-pine Team members travelled to Hemlock Valley Resort to compete in the alpine ski events for the BC Winter Games on Feb 21st to 23rd. Emma Damm placed 16th in

the slalom and giant slalom and 11th in the skier cross.

Jamie Casselman and Ethan Blair competed in the U14 slalom, however mother nature and a broken chair lift interfered and the boys did not get to race their giant sla-lom and skier cross race.

As disappointing as it was for the boys, they still had a fun experience flying to Mis-sion with their Kootenay zone team and spending a week-end with ski racers from across the province. These U14 athletes look forward to BC provincials which will be held in Sun Peaks in mid-March.

Three U16 racers went to Purden Mountain outside of Prince George for their pro-vincial show down. Zoe Chore, Bronwyn Damm and Katie Clark were amongst 69 athletes from all over BC.

The six days of racing con-sisted of two days of super G, two days of giant slalom and two days of slalom. Zoe Chore placed 5th in the province and her best result was 3rd in sla-lom. Katie Clark’s best result was 33rd in gs. Bronwyn Damm’s best result was 39th

Team Members are also doing well. Indy Sherret has been invited to compete in her first World Cup Ski Cross in Swe-den later this month. This is an opportunity for her to test her meddle against the world’s best, but more this is an op-portunity for her to learn.

Rebecca Bermel and Gina Norton are competing in their own backyard at Kimberley Alpine Resort in the FIS Keurig

Super G and Downhill March 2nd to 7th. Over 90 athletes from Canada, Ireland, Japan, New Zealand, and USA will be racing super g, downhill and slalom. This will be the first speed event for this age group and it will be used as a train-ing opportunity.

In addition to the day rac-ing, a night slalom race will take place Thursday March 6th at 6pm. Though crowds of 45,000 like they recently saw in Norway, are not expected in Kimberley it will be a great event to come out and watch.

On the first day of our jour-ney to provincials, we excitedly boarded a plane to Vancouver. Everyone was content in their seats, when the pilot an-nounced over the speaker that the person sitting in seat 8A had won one thousand dollars in flight reward points! The stewardess came to the row in front of me and asked Heidi, who was shocked at this point, for her name. Heidi was sitting in 8A!

Brette and I were suspicious because we had never heard of

this giveaway before. Heidi was ecstatic but realized that Megan, who was sitting beside her in the isle seat, actually had the ticket with 8A on it.

They called the stewardess back and explained the misun-derstanding. She laughed and told Megan that she would need to go to the guest services desk to claim her prize upon our landing in fifteen minutes.

Brette and I watched her re-turn to the front of the plane to see if she would interact with our coach, who we suspected was behind the generous give-away.

The stewardess however,

was a very good actress. She had everyone believing Megan would now receive the prize and was not about to make a mistake.

After we landed, Megan asked Coach Nutini to go to the desk for her and ask about the prize voucher. He returned and told her she was the one who specifically needed to go and claim it. Brette and I looked at each other and were now even more suspicious that Coach Nutini was somehow behind it, but the rest of our team was expecting balloons and a big cardboard cheque.

We all watched in anticipa-

tion as Megan and Heidi ap-proached the desk. After a few seconds of talking to the clerk, they turned around and started yelling at Coach Nutini.

He started to laugh and the rest of our team joined in. Our coach was indeed behind the elaborate prank, but it was a great way to start off our trip.

team. She will be documenting the trials and tribulations of the Wild during their trip to

the provincial championship in Vancouver.

NHL landscape shifts on trade deadline dayStephen Whyno

Canadian Press

Team Canada isn’t just another team, and the Heritage Classic isn’t just another game.

Because of that, no two decisions had a big-ger impact on the NHL trade deadline than the original Team Canada roster and the Vancou-ver Canucks’ starting goaltender for last week-end’s outdoor game.

Had Steve Yzerman put Martin St. Louis on Sochi Olympic team from the start, and had Canucks coach John Tortorella chosen to start Roberto Luongo last weekend at B.C. Place, those two stars likely would not have found themselves in dif-ferent places.

“If Torts would’ve put Roberto in the net, I wouldn’t have called (GM Mike Gillis) and Roberto wouldn’t have been worried about any-thing,” Luongo’s agent, Pat Brisson, said in a phone interview. “We wouldn’t have been talking, and I wouldn’t

have been asking to be granted permission to speak to teams, so there-fore he might’ve still be a Canuck today.”

Instead, Luongo re-turned to the Florida Panthers as Gillis sought a different direction for the Canucks’ organiza-tion.

Yzerman, serving in a dual role as Canada’s ex-ecutive director and the Tampa Bay Lightning’s general manager, ap-peared to sense that trouble might be afoot after announcing the roster on Jan. 7. He wanted to be wrong.

“I’m hopeful that we can get through this and continue to play,” Yzer-man said. “He’s a guy that I want to finish his career (in Tampa).”

Less than two months later and less than two weeks after winning a gold medal with St. Louis playing a role as an injury replacement for Steven Stamkos, Yz-erman ensured that wouldn’t happen by trading his captain to the New York Rangers for

Ryan Callahan and two draft picks. That hap-pened only after the 38-year-old winger asked for a trade and Yz-erman “honoured his request.”

Yzerman didn’t have to trade St. Louis, but he didn’t want to let an un-happy player’s emotions fester within the lock-er-room of a team very much set up to make the playoffs.

“I try not to overreact to any situation - you think it through,” Yzer-man told reporters in Tampa, Fla. “As a man-ager you always have to look out for what’s best for the organization.”

There were plenty of conversations between players and agents, agents and general man-agers and GMs in con-cert before 3 p.m. East-ern Time on Wednes-day. Yzerman was hop-ing his talks with St. Louis wouldn’t lead to this conclusion but after previous dealings he didn’t seem entirely sur-prised that the veteran wanted out.

During the third week of Febru-ary, we took

full advantage of the opportunity to celebrate Chamber of Commerce Week. Like Chambers of Commerce all across British Columbia, we showcased our hard work on behalf of the business community, using the theme of “Leadership in Action.” This highlights the leadership that Cham-bers bring to their com-munities, working hard to enhance B.C. as a business-friendly juris-diction with strong op-portunities for all resi-dents.

First up in that week was an inspiring meet-ing where your Cran-brook and District

Chamber of Commerce hosted Chambers of Commerce throughout the East and West Koo-tenay. We met Board members and Chamber staff from around the region, and I was struck by the high degree of passion and commit-ment to the success of business and communi-ties in our area. That’s a good thing.

At our February 19th luncheon, we were pleased to hear from David Walls, the new President and CEO of the College of the Rockies. David talked about the College’s sig-nificant and wide-rang-ing contributions to the local economy, and we discussed how the busi-ness community and the

College can work more closely together.

We also hosted an open house at our office, which was an opportu-nity for members to talk business with each other, and to meet Chamber staff, Board members and those businesses with which we share our offices. We finished the week with a breakfast meet-ing with MLA Bill Bennett (who is also the Minster of Energy and Mines, and a for-mer President of the Cranbrook Chamber). Bill gave us an over-view of the new provin-cial budget and an-swered a wide range of questions from the ear-ly risers in the audi-ence.

Chamber Directors and staff continue to work hard to advance our strategic priorities for the year.

2nd Vice-President Avana Gjendem is lead-ing our “Membership Mavens” committee, which is identifying and implementing ways to make the Chamber more relevant to more businesses in Cran-brook and area. Avana and her team are look-ing at ways to increase our overall membership numbers (our collective goal is to reach 500 members by the end of the year!) and to be sure that our membership roster is representative of the business commu-nity. But just as impor-tantly, we must contin-

ue to ensure that being a member of the Cham-ber is a good investment for area businesses. In our annual member’s survey, many of you told us that networking is important, so watch for new opportunities to do just that. And if you know of local business-es that aren’t members of the Chamber but should be, please en-courage them to join us. Bring them to the next Chamber luncheon, which is being held at the College of the Rockies on March 12th!

1st Vice-President Dave Struthers is leading our “Economic Drivers” committee. Their focus is promoting economic d eve l o p m e n t , a n d they’ll be looking at the

tourism plan for Cran-brook, promoting buy-ing local, and working with the City, the RDEK and other East Kootenay Chambers to clarify our economic di-rection.

I’m leading “Team Ad-vocacy,” and we’re fo-cusing on making sure that we understand – as much as we can – the issues that businesses will face in 2014. We’ll try to be proactive, working with the City, the REDK and - through the BC Chamber of Commerce – the Prov-ince of BC, to encour-age those governments to better meet the needs of business so that we can help Cranbrook continue to be a suc-cessful and thriving community.

Finally, your Board of Directors is committed to working with Cham-ber Manager Karin Penner (and our great staff team) to ensure that the Chamber is a high-performance orga-nization, operating effi-ciently and with good governance, constantly focused on meeting the needs of our members. We’re working hard to make a good organiza-tion even better.

If you’re already a Chamber member, please talk us up in the community. If you’re not, please join us! And if you have any ques-tions or comments for me, please contact me via the Chamber office (250-426-5914). Thank you.

CELEBRATING 19 WINNING YEARS OF FUN!

Now in its 7th year, Wildsight’s Winter Won-der program continues to educate, amaze, and connect students across the Columbia Basin, as they learn about the joys, secrets, and won-ders of our winters.

Nearly 160 field trips are booked this year, up from 140 last winter. The program takes almost 3,100 students between Kindergarten and Grade 3 on a half-day field trip to explore winter wild-life ecology, snow sci-ence, and weather - all concepts embedded in the current curriculum.

“Requests for these popular programs al-ways seem to increase,” explains Monica Nissen, Wildsight’s Education in the Wild Program Man-ager. “This year, sadly, we had to turn away classes. Despite adding an addition-al 20 field trips this year, we have more demand than we can accommo-date.”

“Across Canada, kids are spending less and less time outside. Win-ter Wonder gets kids outside, connecting them with the magic of winter ecology and their backyards. Our team of

twelve professional out-door educators bring the curriculum to life for students.”

Winter Wonder edu-cators show up in cos-tume, and ‘Frosty Flake’, ‘Jill Frost’ or other magi-cal characters lead the class through a range of hands-on activities, in and out of the class.

Wildsight gratefully acknowledges the fi-nancial support of the Columbia Basin Trust, Fortis BC, TD Friends of the Environment Foun-dation, the North Face Explore Fund and the BC Gaming Commis-sion.

Rhymes with Orange By Hillary B. Price

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You could be discouraged by someone else’s resentment of you. Your frustration could come to the surface. Consider how to express your feelings without judging the other par-ty. Postpone a friendly chat until tomorrow, if possible. Tonight: Nap, then decide. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You’ll dominate to an unusual extent, partially because some-one refuses to discuss the issue at hand. Communication easily could get messed up and cause a misunderstanding. Make your choices your own. Let others know where you are coming from. Tonight: Out and about. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Pretend that you are not in the room. Just listen and take in information. The results will be far better for you, as well as for others. Keep your opinions to yourself, as they could change rapidly in the next few days. Tonight: Go out and join friends. Be yourself.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You naturally will shine in a meeting. On some level, you’ll like what you hear or see, even if a disagreement dominates the moment. You might want to see how you can move past this problem -- perhaps not today, but in the near future. Tonight: Kick back and relax. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You could be in the midst of some tension that you would like to forget about. Consider eliminating this pressure, and try to resolve the problem soon. Use the late afternoon for meetings and other interper-sonal matters. Tonight: Get into weekend mode early. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) If no one is talking or one party is closed down, resolving a mis-understanding could be close to impossible. If you are the party who is closed down, it would better to talk. If it’s the other person, keep reaching out. To-night: Join favorite people at a favorite place. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You might want to come to an

understanding with a loved one before everyone has gotten too involved with a particular issue. Refuse to get stuck. A special friend will try to lighten your mood. Before you know it, you could be laughing. Tonight: Try something totally new. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your moods could have a bigger impact than you might realize. Be more forthright if you want a problem resolved. You could be vested in this present men-tal stance as well. Let a partner air out his or her ideas without becoming judgmental. Tonight: Say “yes” to someone’s whims. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Go with the moment, and know what you desire. You might have kept a lot of your thoughts to yourself, despite your gregar-ious personality. Others could be stunned by how sensitive you can be. Stay on top of calls and emails. Tonight: Toss your-self into a fun scene. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Upon hearing certain conversa-tions, your mind could jump to better ideas and new ways of

handling a personal matter. Fol-low through on these thoughts more often. Do not feed into a communication issue. Stay open. Tonight: Run some er-rands on the way home. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might opt to stay close to home. You could find others in a strange mood, which will make it difficult to deal with them. A conversation with someone at a distance might make you feel uneasy. Try not to let this get to you. Tonight: Let your sponta-neity out. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Take an overview. Conversa-tions will be about the story, not the real issues below the surface. A close associate, friend or loved one could be more than difficult. At present, he or she might seem more fiery than you have witnessed in a while. Tonight: Head home early. BORN TODAY Dramatist Cyrano de Bergerac (1619), economist Alan Green-span (1926), sculptor Michelan-gelo Buonarroti (1475)

Dear Annie: I have been married to a spe-cial man for 23 years. The problem is, he has too close of a relationship with his mother. It doesn’t allow the two of us to have any adult space. We didn’t entirely get along under one roof because he would say critical and hurtful things to me. About 10 years ago, I moved down the road into my own space. Since then, we have gotten along better and are much kinder to each other. The problem, however, is my mother-in-law. She insists on calling my husband and talking for several hours every Sunday. I used to talk to her, too, but grew bored with it because I had nothing to say after 20 minutes. He loves small talk. I wanted time for the two of us to have an occasional weekend alone, but he always had this obligatory hours-long phone call. I decided to tolerate this and took a Sunday job so I’d keep busy. But gradually, the calls encroached on the rest of our week. Every time we took a trip together, she’d call multi-ple times while he was driving to be certain he hadn’t crashed. She somehow manages to call every time we are intimate. And of course, the real problem is that my husband answers these calls or lets the answering machine pick them up so we can hear her message. She is amazingly loud. How am I supposed to be passionate when I can hear her booming voice in the background? Annie, I’ve tried everything. I asked him to phone her before my visits so we could have some time alone. I’ve asked him to let her know we need time to ourselves. But I’m worn out. I’ve stopped asking. I rarely visit him these days. My father-in-law was recently diag-nosed with terminal cancer. Am I being small-minded now that she has real worries and fears? -- Phoenix Dear Phoenix: The fact that your mother-in-law is going through some difficult times means you should be kind and considerate, even helpful when possible, but not a door-mat. If you could periodically phone or visit her to see how she’s doing, or offer to bring groceries or stay with her husband so she can have a break, those would be kind ges-tures. But your husband has chosen not to limit his mother’s phone calls even though it interferes with his relationship with you. That is unlikely to change, especially now. Dear Annie: I do not have a dishwasher. I wash all of my dishes and silverware by hand. I place my silverware in the dish drain rack with the handles down and the eating end up. I think it makes sense that the water drains away from the eating end, making it more sanitary. And the bottom of the drain can accumulate all kinds of detritus. Why would I want my fork tines in that? My friend disagrees and says it should be the other way around so that you don’t catch your hand on a knife while emptying the dish rack. What do you say? -- Em from Indy Dear Em: We’re with you when it comes to forks, spoons and butter knives, but sharp knives should be placed facing down in or-der to avoid injury. Dear Annie: This is in response to “Less Generous.” I, too, consider myself thought-ful and generous. For years I sent cards, gifts, photos, etc., for every occasion. My efforts seemed to go unappreciated, so I stopped. I now focus on the people who do respond to my efforts, and I cultivate those relation-ships. I am teaching my 7-year-old daughter to write thank-you notes. She says, “Do I have to?” I say, “Yes. If someone made the effort to think of you, then you need to acknowl-edge their effort.” I hope it sticks. -- Still Gen-erous Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

OOSTENBRINK, John1950 - 2014

After 63 years living on terra firma, I, John Oostenbrink, have transferred my residence to the Kingdom of Heaven. The transfer comes as no surprise as my material has been sent for decades. This material with the Master Builder, Jesus Christ has provided a mansion. The property

and citizenship was previously paid for by the blood of Christ. There are no mortgages, no taxes, no insurance; it is completely debt free, and all utilities have been paid for eternity. It is situated in a beautiful neighbourhood where all the resident are called Saints. The city is located in a gated community, and if you know Jesus Christ, I will greet you just inside the gate.

John Oostenbrink loved people by sharing his music and his creative appreciation of nature and art. John was God’s musician - the harmony of music resonated through his soul and he composed wonderful music; the piano was his first choice but he could make any instrument sing. The children’s favourite memories were listening to Dad play the piano while they fell asleep; and Pooba sing as he soothed the grand babies. John leaves a legacy of the wonderful music he has composed and the creativity of his many handcraft talents (he loved tools and puzzles).

Still living on terra firma are his wife, Heidi, his children, Christel Poirier (Kelley), Anita Nixon (Jeremy), Jonathan, and his six precious grandchildren James, Patrick, Eden, Alexis, Elizabeth, and Caleb who know him as their own special Pooba.

A Celebration of John’s life will be held at Knox Presbyterian Church, Cranbrook, BC on Saturday, March 8 at 11 a.m. when we will share John’s music, songs and humour.

Friends may visit Mark’s Memorial website www.markmemorial.com to write expressions of condolences.

In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to support Heidi until she joins John at his new residence.

The family wishes to thank friends for their loving support.

Marilyn Ann OlsonFebruary 6th, 1944 - February 23rd, 2014

We sadly announce the passing of Marilyn Ann Olson. Marilyn was born in Nelson, British Columbia to Florence and Henry Turner. At an early age, she moved to Kimberley, British Columbia. At age fifteen, she met the love of her life, Richard, they married five

years later and settled in Cranbrook, British Columbia to raise their family.

For the next fifty years, Marilyn rode shotgun and sang along with Rick as they lived and loved.

Marilyn was a loving mother and wife and had a wonderful sense of humour. She babysat all of her many grandkids. She enjoyed walking, feeding the birds and solving crossword puzzles. As well, she especially loved gathering wood and picking berries with her husband. After working at K-Mart for twenty-five years, she retired and continued her friendships with the K-Mart ladies at their monthly lunches. Marilyn and Richard often enjoyed morning coffee with their friends at McDonalds. She will be missed every day.

Marilyn is survived by her husband Rick, and their children Tammy Olson (Tim), Kevin Olson (Christy), Melody Wilford (Darren) and Dennis Olson, her grandchildren Brian McLarnon, Justin Grandberg (Sarah), Jessica, Jaik, Jackson and Blake Olson, and Dempsey, Emily and Nolan Wilford, her great granchildren Alaia and Naythaniel Grandberg and Caden McLarnon, her brothers Ron Turner (Darlene), Mike Turner (Wendy) and Bob Turner, her brother and sister-in-laws Chuck and Donna Olson and Betty Walmsley as well as many nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her parents and her brother Ken Turner.

Following Marilyn’s wishes, there will not be a service. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the charity of your choice.

Nothing you would takeEverything you gave....

FACTS PAID ADVERTISEMENT

RURAL POLITICAL

POWER

The BC government has introduced legislation to change the Electoral Boundaries Commission Act so that there will be no loss of rural seats in

the Kootenays, the Cariboo-Thompson and the North.

The Act requires that every second election a Commission is set up to assess provincial electoral boundaries. This typically results

in the loss of rural constituencies. The last Commission in 2006 stated there would be no way to avoid the loss of rural seats in 2014 unless the Act is changed.

Although the NDP are speaking against this important change, the BC Liberal majority will pass the legislation that will prevent the loss

of 17 rural seats and will prevent the addition of anymore than the existing 85 seats in the BC Legislature.

Fort Steele Heritage Town held its fifth Pro-D Day camp of the school year on Feb. 28. The children played a game of hockey on the large outdoor rink and created a colourful stained-glass-style craft. For lunch they made calzone pizza pockets. In the afternoon the kids did a scavenger hunt and then visited the chickens and ducks, learning the importance of feeding, pro-viding water and collecting chicken eggs. A high point of the day was a tug of war and a challenging egg toss game! The next camp is March 17-28 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., a full week of discovering everything about Fort Steele, including tinsmithing, livestock tours, sewing projects, arts and crafts, baking, games and races. Lunch and snacks are provided. It is for kids in Grades 1-6 and costs $175 per child plus tax, with a discount for siblings. Daily rates are also available. Space is limited, so call 250-417-6000 to register. Pictured, back row, left to right: Brooke Wheeldon, Paul Freitag and Laurel Buch.

Genome British Co-lumbia is taking our community engage-ment program, “Bring-ing Genomics Home” on the road to Cran-brook for the fourth year in a row.

“Engineering ge-nomics” is a lively and engaging presentation about the interplay of technology and life sci-ences by Dr. Robin Coope with a special video introduction by Dr. Jennifer Gardy, a na-tional figure in science communication.

Community mem-bers are welcome to join him at College of the Rockies for a conversa-tion about genomics and how we can use DNA sequencing to solve all sorts of myster-ies – including how a disease outbreak hap-pens.

Dr. Robin Coope is Instrumentation Group Leader at the BC Cancer Agency’s Michael Smith Genome Sciences Cen-tre and Co-Director of the Genome BC Tech-nology Development Platform. Dr. Coope,

with a diverse career in science TV, art installa-tions, Lego robots and research innovation is well known in the life sciences community for his enthusiasm and di-verse portfolio of proj-ects, from laboratory automation to medical devices.

“We are delighted that Dr. Coope is able to bring his insight and knowledge to the peo-ple of Cranbrook”, says Dr. Alan Winter, Presi-dent & CEO of Genome BC. “This young re-searcher is at the fore-front of his field and he will bring a special com-bination of energy and passion to their presen-tation.”

This free public talk begins at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, March 11 at College of the Rockies’

Cranbrook Main Cam-pus Lecture Theatre, Room 250.
