House Fire in North Golden

Joel [email protected]

While there have been several minor con-flicts between bears and residents this year, there had yet to be a report of an actual attack. Until late last month.

One visiting tourist, a 47 year-old male from Calgary, was injured when a young

male black bear attacked him, apparently drawn by the smell of food to a rental prop-erty near Kicking Horse Mountain Resort.

The incident happened in the evening of Oct. 24.

“They had just made a potato salad and they were letting it cool. So it’s not like they were actively incorrectly storing garbage. They just put some food out on the deck and

a bear crawled up onto the deck,” said Con-servation Officer Dan Bartol.

One of the visiting tourists stepped out onto the deck and, not realizing that the bear was there, received a bite on the leg.

“Fortunately they weren’t major injuries, just a couple punctures,” Bartol said.

The bear had previously knocked over barbecues and gotten into garbage when it could. It had also made its way into one individual’s house according to a second-hand report.

The bear was deemed to be food conditioned and it was trapped and euthanized by COs. The village near the resort isn’t usually a problem spot for bears, as the area has commun-

al bear-proof bins. “Usually they’re pretty good but what we’re worried about is the fact that there’s such a big

rotation in renters, the educational message might not be getting out there. But we’re work-ing with the residents’ association to come up with a little pamphlet or message so we can educate those renters that come to town for a week or a weekend,” said Conservation Officer Alexandre Desjardins.

This bear marks the fifth that has had to be euthanized this fall in Golden, an average year for the town according to Desjardins.

Both COs remain frustrated at the lack of attractant management by locals. “I’m very surprised by how many attractants we’re still seeing,” Bartol said. “We’re struggling when it comes to attractant management, that’s fair to say. But we’re per-

sistently working with the community and working with WildSafe BC to conduct attractant audits,” Desjardins said.

While winter is fast approaching, bears still haven’t fallen into hibernation just yet and COs are warning the public to be aware of that fact.

“Bears are on the cusp of hibernating right now so it’s extremely important to be vigilant,” Desjardins said, adding that managing attractants is particularly important towards the end of the season.

Bears will avoid hibernating as long as there is food available to them, according to Desjar-dins, with some grizzlies waiting until the early part of the winter to finally hibernate.


The Ministry of Transportation was in Golden last week to fill Town Council in on what is in the works for the highways surrounding town.

Several projects were discussed, including the extension of the Golden Pathway, which links downtown Golden to the highway, up to the top of the Golden Hill. The next, and final phase, will link sidewalk on the over-pass to the highway strip.

“We just finished the design,” said Jack Bennetto, district manager for the area. “We really value that partnership we’ve had with the Town.”

Other improvements that are in the works, which will hopefully improve traffic flow in the area, are the installation of a coroner in Revelstoke (which will reduce highway closure times in the event of a fatality), and four-laning near Quartz Creek (which does not have a date set, but has been moved higher on the priority list).

They will also be implementing a variable speed limits system, meaning the legal speed limits will change based on road conditions between Gold-en and Revelstoke.

“We won’t be policing that right away while we’re implementing the sys-tem and signage,” said Bennetto. “Right now we just want to get the mes-sage across to slow down during poor weather conditions.”

They also discussed the completion of the fourth and final phase of the Kicking Horse Canyon project.

The fourth, and most difficult phase, includes upgrades of more than four kilometres through the canyon section, four-laning, alignment improvements and reduction of rock fall and avalanche hazards, and bridge retaining walls from the west portal to the Yoho Bridge.

The preliminary design, which includes extensive environmental and geotechnical studies of some difficult terrain, have been completed. Cur-rently no timeline has been set for the project, as the province is pursuing cost sharing with the federal government to fund it. There was cost shar-ing for the previous phases.

During the visit the ministry also announced their intention to tackle the Kicking Horse Bridge right here in the middle of town.

Beginning in 2012 there was a business case developed, examining whether it was better to replace or rehabilitate the bridge. It has been determined that replacement is a better option.

“We’re still a ways away, but I’m really encouraged that we’re actually moving forward with that,” said Art McLean, operations manager in the region.

Starting in 2016 a stakeholder process will begin with the Town of Gold-en.

The pressure Monitoring Systems and Winter TiresBlack ice is a hazard here on Vancouver Island and the best defence is a good set of winter tires. They

are designed to help hold the road better than M+S rated all season tires and it’s now time to � nd a set for my wife’s Honda CR-V. I’m fortunate to be able to a� ord what I want, so it was o� to Honda for a set of steel wheels, Consumer Reports for the best tire choices and then the retailers for the best price. I thought that I had it all wrapped up until I remembered the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).

TPMS is important to help call tire in� ation problems to my attention if they change before I � nd it with my tire gauge. Poor in� ation can a� ect traction, the tendency to hydroplane, fuel economy and tire life. Let tire pressure fall too low and the tire can destroy itself or fail suddenly, resulting in a collision. I opened my web browser and searched on TPMS and winter tires. The results told me that I could buy a second set of modules and pay the dealer to have the vehicle’s computer reset every time I changed the tires and wheels as the car’s computer can only manage the 4 sensors that it has been told about.

If your vehicle uses the anti-lock brake system (ABS) to sense tire pressure instead of a module in each wheel, this situation will not apply. You may change your tires and wheels and the system will continue to function without having to be adjusted. Check your owner’s manual or contact the dealership for more information if you are unsure of which system your vehicle uses.

Some articles complained about traction control and vehicle stability systems being negatively a� ected if the TPMS modules were not present and functioning properly. This is not the case according to my Honda dealer. The worst thing that I will have to put up with is the tire pressure warning light shining brightly until I put the original wheels back on again.

For now, since it is not mandatory to have a functional TPMS, I’ve decided to make sure that I check my tire in� ation with a good gauge on a regular basis and let the in� ation warning light shine. When I decide that I can’t live with it or the law changes, I’ll buy a set of sensors and a reset tool.The author is a retired constable with many years of tra� c law enforcement experience.

RCMP Report: Police investigating fire that may have been deliberately set

Golden Star [email protected]

Winter driving conditions

Police are reminding motorists to slow down and adjust their driving to the road and weather conditions after responding to eleven collisions this week.

In almost all of the collisions, the drivers reported that they had lost control of their vehicles due to road condi-tions. No serious injuries were reported in any of the inci-dents.

Vehicle impounded

A motorist from the Golden area received several fines on November 5 after police initiated a traffic stop with a vehicle and learned that it had no insurance, expired registration, and that the driver was driving with only a learner’s licence.

The driver’s vehicle was also impounded for seven days.

RCMP respond to theft

Police were called to a theft in progress on November 6 after a hunter observed three males syphoning gas out of a loader near the Marl Creek FSR near Donald.

The caller had followed the males out of the site but lost track of them shortly after. The vehicle was described as being a dark crew cab pickup with big letters in the front windshield.

Anyone with information regarding this theft is asked to contact local police at 250-344-2221 or Crimestoppers at 1-800-222- 8477.

Fines for youth drivers

Three local youths have received fines after police received a call from a resident at Kicking Horse Moun-tain Resort stating that there were a number of vehicles “stunting.”

The vehicles were located by police. Two drivers received fines for failing to display an ‘N’ on their vehicle as required by new drivers, and the other received a fine for having unauthorized lights.

Fire at 11th Ave. house

The Golden-Field RCMP are continuing to investigate a fire at a vacant residence on 11th Avenue North during the early morning hours of November 6.

Police received the call just before 1 a.m. and when they arrived the entire back of the house was fully engulfed in flames.

Firefighters with both the Town of Golden Fire-Rescue and the Nicholson Fire Department arrived shortly after and were able to contain the blaze before it spread to any surrounding structures.

Further investigation by police and fire crews lead investigators to believe that the fire may have been delib-erately set.

"Other witnesses reported hearing and seeing a car leave the area at a high rate of speed just before the blaze occurred,' said Cst. Spencer Lainchbury, spokesperson for the Golden-Field RCMP.

Police are asking anyone who may have seen the car or anyone with any other information to contact them dir-ectly at 250-344-2221 or anonymously through Crimes-toppers at 1-800-222-8477.

- I SURMISE -By Jessica Schwitek

Remembrance DayWith Justin Trudeau taking over as Canada’s 23rd

Prime Minister came the announcement of the cabinet that will help him lead the country for at least the next four years.

Whatever your political leanings happen to be, this was a monumental day for Canada and one that both conservatives and liberals should celebrate.

Among our 32 members of cabinet, half are men and half are women. Two are aboriginals, three were born outside of Canada, and several have religious beliefs that fall outside of Christianity.

This level of diversity among the leaders of a country that prides itself on its diversity should be a no-brainer, but it’s something we haven’t seen under previous gov-ernments, be it with the Conservatives or Liberals.

Our politicians throughout much of our history were old, male and white, with few exceptions. That’s no longer the case.

It can’t be stated enough: Diversity among our elect-ed officials is incredibly important. If our federal repre-sentatives all have similar backgrounds and life experi-ences, they’re going to have similar opinions on how to run the country.

With an elected group from a wide-range of social, economic and cultural backgrounds, decisions can be made on a more inclusive basis. That will benefit all of us.

After all, this is a country where over 6 million people are visible minorities and another 1.4 million are of aboriginal descent. Here in B.C., over one million people are visible minorities and over 230,000 are iden-tified as aboriginals.

And the bottom line is, as our Prime Minister put it, this is 2015.

It’s about time the country was ran by a group of min-

isters who more or less rep-resent the makeup of this country.

Most importantly, how-ever, this new group of cab-inet ministers appears to be exceptionally qualified for the positions they’ve been given. Not all are seasoned politicians, but all are experts in their given field.

Our Minister of Trans-port (Marc Garneau) was the first Canadian in space. This is his third term as an MP in Ottawa after first win-ning his seat in 2008. Our Minister of National Defence (Harjit Sajjan) is a former police officer who also served as a commander for the armed forces in Afghanistan. This is his first term as an MP. Our Minister of Science was a longtime meteorology and climatology professor at the University of Windsor and was part of an organiz-ation that won a Nobel Peace Prize with Al Gore in 2007. She is beginning her third term as an MP after winning her seat in 2008 and 2011. Our Minister of Sport and Persons with Disabilities (Carla Qualtrough) is a blind former Paralympic athlete.

This cabinet wasn’t simply chosen because they fall under certain demographics. They were chosen because they are exceptionally qualified for the pos-itions they now hold.

The fact that they happen to be a diverse group of individuals from a variety of different backgrounds is a nice bonus, and one that demonstrates some serious progress in 2015.

New, diverse cabinet a triumph for CanadaEvery year at this time

I am humbled by hear-ing the stories that come up near Remem-brance Day.

I was lucky enough to sit down with a veteran from the Second World War this week to talk about his experiences, which are always fascin-ating and engrossing tales.

This particular vet-eran, like most, was so humble he was convinced that no one would find his story interesting.

And as usual, he was wrong.At age 17 George Ross joined the Navy to

become a pilot, even though he was not yet eli-gible for active duty, and spent the final year of the war seeing it from a bird’s eye view.

What made his story especially interesting to me was where he spent that year in the sky. He was supporting Britain’s troops as they moved into Burma, which happens to be where my grandfather was.

He would have preferred to be in the skies, but a heart murmur found in his physical meant my grandfather could not pilot a plane. So hearing the stories about what his experience would have been like, had he been allowed to fly, was captiv-ating.

During the same visit, Mr. Ross showed me a Legion publication listing the fallen veterans from across Canada over the last six months. The list seemed long, but every year it gets short-er and shorter as Canada’s veterans start to dis-appear.

Pretty soon there won’t be anyone left who served in the First and Second World Wars.

The other unfortunate reality of this is that there are fewer and fewer people who remem-ber what life was like in Canada during war time. And, as a result, fewer people who truly under-stand the significance of Remembrance Day.

The ceremonies in Golden do get a reasonable turnout.

Junior and minor hockey players come, Scouts, Girl Guides and Cadets come, as do many local families.

However, there should be more.The government gives British Columbians

the day off, not to sleep in and get chores done, but to take a day to acknowledge the sacrifice of those who came before us.

The least we can do is take 30 minutes out of that day to take a drive or a walk to the Gold-en Cenotaph by Town Hall and join in on the moment of silence.

The students at Nicholson have had many oppor-tunities to show us their leadership qualities this past month:

First of all, the students have set their own learning goals (begin with the end in mind) and have put them into leadership notebooks where they track their own progress along the way. Using these leadership note-

books the students led their parent/teacher/student interviews by sharing this information with their par-ents.

Second, all assemblies have been set up and run by the Assembly Leaders. They set up all the technical equipment and MC the entire thing. They work as a team and realize that together does work better (syn-ergize)!

Next, we had a visitor to the school (Mr. Carriere, our superintendent) and our Greeter Leaders met

him at the door, directed him to his meeting and later toured him through the school.

Every student in our school has a leadership job and are part of a leadership team.

When given the opportunity it is amazing to watch what the students can do.

We are very proud of our Nicholson Leaders and look forward to many more exciting things happen-ing at theNicholson Elementary School under their leadership.

Parents, advocates for the disabled and even the opposition critic applauded the B.C. government's move to increase financial independence for people receiving disability assistance payments.

Social Development Minister Michelle Stilwell has announced that effective Dec. 1, recipients will be able to receive financial gifts and inheritances of up to $100,000 without affecting their monthly payments.

The current lifetime limit is $5,000 per person, after which assistance payments are reduced.

Stilwell said the change affects 96,000 people in B.C. who receive disability assistance."It's available to all those individuals, and of course it would depend on their personal

situations, their family support, friend support, whether they're working or not working," Stilwell said.

"And those are definitely changes that we're trying to encourage as well, to help individ-uals to get into the workforce, so they can create opportunities for themselves to earn and to save."

The government previously raised the earned income exemption so people can earn

up to $9,600 a year without reduction of their disability assistance, and has encouraged B.C. businesses to hire disabled people.

James Ho, a member of the minister's council on employment and accessibility, called the gift and inheritance policy "a quantum leap forward" for disabled people like his son.

Kathy Bromley, a disability advocate whose daughter attends Simon Fraser University, struggled to control her emotions at a ceremony at the B.C. legislature announcing the change Nov. 5.

"Just because Shannon was born with a disability and needs help to brush her teeth and put her coat on … she needs to have a good reason to wake up every morning," Bromley said.

NDP social development critic Michelle Mungall the change is "definitely good news" for those who can take advantage of it.

"I know with some of the families that I've been working with, people have come forward wanting to help them out, and they haven't been able to because of the gift rule," Mungall said.

"But at the end of the day, what we know is that the income assistance rates are very low, they are leaving people in poverty, and we see policies like the maternity leave clawback."

Continued from last week

Written by Kerry McLean for 2000 Gold-en Memories

In 1888, a road was under construction between Golden and the post at Kootenay. It was felt that this road would greatly facili-tate communications, as previously the river and the packtrail were the only means of trav-el and freighting.

In August 1888, the Division left the dis-trict and returned to Ford MacLeod in the NWT.

It was not until 1919 when the RCMP absorbed the BC Provincial Police and assumed the respon-sibility of the full poli-cing of the province. One detachment, consisting of one con-stable (D.B. “Doc” Poole) & one corpor-al (Alexander Craig) was opened in Gold-en. On that same date,

the RCMP took over as detachment quarters, an office, cell room, and married living quarters in a building owned by the BC Prov-incial Government.

This building, locat-ed at 612 10th Avenue East was rented.

It was vacated on January 31, 1965. The location is beside the present day (1998) Reddi Mart Con-venience Store. The detachment neigh-boured the Court House of the time, which has since become a vacant building itself.

A new Crown-owned RCMP Type 17 Detach-ment Building was built by Burnham Con-struction Ltd. of Gold-en on the corner of Calgary and Rover Streets in 1964. These new quarters were occupied on February 1, 1965.

The RCMP con-tinued excavations of the Golden Pion-eer Cemetery at some point during the early 1980s.

The occupants of the cemetery were removed and relocat-ed to the present Golden cemetery. Pre-sumably the cemetery was excavated due to its position adja-cent to the Trans Can-ada Highway that was

being upgraded near the cemetery at the time.

In 1975, the RCMP Type 17 Detachment building was sold to a local resident and the detachment took temporary quarters in the downtown section across the bridge at 414 E 6th Avenue.

During the next year the new office transferred to this new building in the spring of 1977. Offi-cial opening for the new Detachment office took place in July 1977.

Once again the Detachment was situ-ated at 902 9th Street, formerly corner of Calgary and River Streets.

The Golden High-way Patrol Unit regionalized in May 1995 to increase its membership from five to seven members. As well, authorization was given the same year to allow Gold-en Highway Patrol members to patrol 45 kilometres into the Alberta Border.

In 196l, the Highway Patrol experienced yet another gain in resources by the authorization of a Ser-geant in charge bring-ing the total number of members to eight.

Today, Golden

Highway members patrol Highway #1 from Castle Junction to Rogers’s Pass, High-way 93 to Invermere and Highway 95 to Golden.

In June 1998, the Field RCMP Detach-ment was closed permanently. Sup-plies and personnel were transferred to the Golden Detachment.

The Golden RCMP now provides police service for the Field area. Previously, Field was a two-per-son detachment until 1996. In 1996, Field Detachment was reduced to a one mem-ber detachment, while coverage was provided by the Golden RCMP when Field’s constable was off duty.

Today, the Roy-al Canadian Mount-ed Police are acting to meet the challen-ges and ever present changes to better pre-pare the police for the evolving needs of our community. Com-munity based policing has become a way of doing business for the local detachment.

The means used to accomplish this goal is through the RCMP Community Con-sulting Group. This group consists of members of the pub-lic who are interest-

ed in obtaining the best possible policing service that address-es the concerns and issues of relevance to the people of Golden and area.

The recent intro-duction of restorative justice programs such as the Golden Youth and Adult Assistance Programs have pro-vided the community with alternatives to the court process that are proving themselves to be very effective deter-rents to crime.

Other community

initiatives include the Auxiliary Constable Program which has been around for years and has provided vol-unteers in the com-munity an opportunity to assist regular mem-bers with policing and law enforcement.

The Golden RCMP plan to continue the tradition of provid-ing the best possible police service to the people of Golden and area into the next Mil-lennium as we meet new challenges and changes.

Goldenite returns home to open success-driven fitness centreJoel [email protected]

Keefer Dondaneau owned and operated a gym in Slave Lake in

northern Alberta, but jumped at the oppor-tunity to move his busi-ness interests back to his hometown.

The result is Gold-

en’s Gym, the town’s newest fitness facil-ity and one that bills itself as success-driven and focused on reten-tion when compared to large chain facilities in bigger centres.

“We changed our business model from volume, like a Goodlife or a Gold’s, to a private model…retention and client care is a big part of it,” Dondaneau said.

“Most people fail because they just have no idea how to work out. It’s like any sport, body building and weight training is like hockey or football, it’s specialized. There’s a way to do it.”

With a full mem-bership, Dondaneau offers both workout

and nutritional pro-grams to help gym rats and newcomers learn how to workout and how to make real prog-ress.

“It’s set up like a cir-

cuit. So if you have zero idea how to train you can come in and use it without any help what-soever. You just do legs, back, arms, whatever,” he said.

Dondaneau is also available to offer tips and interactions on each of the facility’s machines. If a user hap-pens to be working out after hours - the gym is open 24 hours a day for members via keycard - Dondaneau plans to have QR codes on each machine that will link to instructional videos.

Dondaneau spent the last three years away from Golden before moving back and open-ing the gym in Septem-ber. His heart never really left the town where he grew up.

“It’s home. The mountains, the family, the community. You go to the grocery store and you know everyone. There’s something to be said for a hometown feel. You’re not alone in a crowd in Golden,” Dondaneau said.

He says he got ser-ious about his own personal fitness dur-

ing high school. Now, he’s an avid outdoors-men and enjoys many of the sports that Gold-en is known for. He’s also a body builder and plans to compete at this year’s provincials in Kamloops.

And while Golden is known as an outdoor sports kind of town, that doesn’t mean that athletes should neglect the gym, Dondaneau says, as it’s important for balance no mat-ter what activity you’re into.

“For people that do play outside year-round, they’re often unbalanced. (You) can get a lot of weird injur-ies especially from being front or back heavy or top to bot-tom heavy. We work a lot with injury preven-tion.”

For more informa-tion, visit Golden’s Gym 24/7 on Face-book.

Remembrance Day messages from Golden’s Mayor, MLA and MP For almost a century,

Canadians have gathered at Cenotaphs in com-munities across the coun-try on the morning of November 11th.

In some of the com-munities I represent, it is one of the largest gath-erings of the year, and it speaks to the enduring gratitude and respect we have for our veterans, and their sacrifice.

In speaking to a group of students at Nicholson Elemen-tary, when I was Principal, the late Mr. Bill Batten, a World War II veteran, spoke of the importance he placed on his lifetime commitment to his fellow soldiers. He said that he needed to keep their memories alive, and honour their sac-rifice by appreciating the freedoms and democracy they had died to protect.

And Mr. Batten asked that even the youngest student at the school help him in his work by remembering veterans and understanding the importance of peace, freedom and dem-ocracy.

As we gather on Remembrance Day, we see the crowd filled with people of all ages. We see new Canadians and those whose families have been in Canada for generations.

This Remembrance Day, we again thank our veterans, we honour their sacrifice and their willingness to serve their fellow Canadians.

Let us say THANK YOU to our vet-erans, those that we see from day to day and let them know that we appreciate their personal sacrifices and all that they did for our country; and are doing for our country. Shake their hand.

We can also give thanks for those vet-erans who have recently passed and those that died long ago. Thank you for their sacrifices so that we might have the life that we have; and sometimes take for granted. Thank you for our freedoms. Thank you for putting service before self.

These three words define every per-son who has worn a uniform. Each of you has sacrificed and we would like to thank you for that solemn commitment to their fellow Canadians.

Remembrance Day is always special, and I like to spend the week taking part in ceremon-ies in schools and then partici-pate at the cenotaph on Novem-ber 11. Hearing the stories of great sacrifice from our veter-ans and being reminded of how fortunate we are to live in peace helps us appreciate our men and women in uniform both today and in the past.

Like many of you I memorized “In Flanders Field” in my youth and can still recite the poem today. The image of rows of white crosses and red poppies helps us remember the suffering and death that war brings, and the warning not to break faith with those who died is a message that warrants repeating more often than once a year.

We have a proud history of helping to keep peace around the world – that is a role that we excel at and, historically, have been recognized for internationally. We are also willing to join our allies in war when evil threatens to overtake good people.

Remembrance Day gives us the opportunity to say “Thank You” to our soldiers and our veterans for service that goes above and beyond what most of us are asked to do. They deserve our support and our appreciation.

Please take the time to gather on November 11 to show your respect for those who have given so much. It is an honour to stand with them.

The Bird's Eye View is a fantastic and timely read for Remembrance Day. Written by Elinor Florence, a long time resident of Invermere, it is a novel with suspense, action, intrigue, and romance. The biggest difference with this war novel is it depicts the role of women in the Second World War. It is not only refreshing, but eye opening.

The story takes place during the Second World War and centres around a young Canadian girl, Rose Joliffe, who was raised on a farm in Saskatchewan. She joins the British Women's Auxiliary Air Force where she becomes an aer-ial photographic interpreter. Rose is an intelligent young women, but a little naive. It is interesting to watch her char-acter grow as she learns from her new surroundings and the relationships she forges so far from home. While Rose gains success in her new career, she suffers great tragedy, and love loss. As the story unfolds you not only like Rose, but you admire the woman she has become.

The Bird's Eye View is a gripping story and it is very appar-ent the author did her research. This is a story that will envelop you, and make you feel as if you've experienced what the war was like in Britain. You will discover a piece of history that women were a large part of that has not been widely publicized.

I recommend this book for any woman of any age, and for that matter, any man of any age.

PEOPLE WHO READ

NEWSPAPERS AND PEOPLE WHO HAVE

MONEY HAVE ONE THING IN COMMON.

Newspaper ads, both print and online, play a key role in helping people make their banking and investment decisions.

Newspapers and their sites outperform all other media in engaging Canadians, including high-income Canadians, boomers, moms and even young adults.

All of which makes advertising in newspapers a very smart move.


At age 17 he was not eligible for active duty in the British Navy, but George Ross signed up anyway.

“We all admired the guys from the Battle of Britain who came before us…and I always knew I wanted to be a pilot,” said Ross, who was watching the early years of the Second World War from afar in Scotland. “At that time Britain was under attack and our cities were being bombed… My mother saw me off, and it was one of the few times I saw tears in her eyes.”

His two older sisters were helping how they could with the war effort, his older brother stayed back work-ing as a doctor, and his younger brother was too young to enlist.

He spent those first months of training doing drills in the UK, getting fit and learning how to be a sol-dier. But then he hopped on the Queen Mary to cross the Atlantic and begin his real training in Canada. To avoid running into any U-boats, the Queen Mary had to zig-zag all the way across the ocean.

“It was in Canada that I learned how to fly. I actual-ly learned how to fly a plane before I learned how to drive a car,” Ross recalled. “I loved being up there by myself, especially at night when the sun was setting. It was so quiet and peaceful.”

Training eventually ended, and Ross was assigned to be a fighter pilot and spent the duration of the war assisting the army, which was advancing through Burma, and to disrupt the Japanese in Malay. He had trained on Tiger Moths and Harvards in Canada, but had to shift to Hellcats for active duty, which he says were much heavier to fly.

“My experience in the war was quite different than a lot of others…I was active for about a year at the end of the war and was able to stay in the safety of my plane,” he said.

However, from that plane, Ross and his fellow pilots played an integral role in the allied efforts, destroying enemy communications and transportation routes.

When not in the air, he lived at sea on a carrier where he would take off and land on a short deck, ideally without going over the edge. Although not all the pilots were so accurate, and several ended up in the water, being picked up by a destroyer following close behind.

“There was a hook that was supposed to catch on a wire, but you could see in front of you with the nose of the plane up. So we had to be guided by a guy standing at the side of the runway.”

The war was winding down at that point, and there was a general feeling in the area that it was only a mat-ter of time before there was a surrender.

“We were out at sea when we heard the news about the atom bomb dropping,” said Ross.

“None of us believed it. We didn’t think that it was

possible that one bomb was big enough to end the war.”

After that his fleet sailed to Singapore where a sur-render was accepted. Then it was time to head home.

Flying had been Ross’ passion and dream for a long time, but after the war he decided pursue a career in accounting, a career that took him all over the world.

He was working in India when he met his wife, and after considering several countries to eventually set-tle (South Africa, Australia, New Zealand), the couple decided on Canada.

“We’ve never regretted that decision, not for a second,” said Ross. “We started gathering newspapers from all those countries, and Canada just seemed like a much more exciting place.”

The Ross’ lived in Montreal for the duration of George’s working life, but in retirement decided they wanted to move west to Golden, both to be close to their children and grandchildren, and to live in this beautiful part of the country.

“We really love it here, it’s such a great community,” said Ross.

Same story for Rockets as club’s losing streak hits twenty


“It’s not a monkey anymore, we’ve got an elephant that’s climbed on (our back).”

Such is the reality for head coach Jason Stephens and his group that has now lost 20 games on the hop, having accumulated a mere two overtime losses throughout a miserable run that dates back to the start of the season.

Once again, there were opportunities for a breakthrough this weekend, this time across a pair of games against the Creston

Valley Thunder Cats. On Friday in Creston, the home team

jumped out to an early 2-0 lead but the Rockets worked their way back into a tie thanks to goals from Tanner Wit and Mathew Thiessen.

It was all Thunder Cats from there, how-ever, as the second place squad piled three unanswered goals on Rockets netminder Keyon Bittner, who was making his debut for Golden, to eventually grab a 5-2 win.

Bittner was brought over this week from Revelstoke and was taking the place of injured starter Brody Nelson, who would

return to the Rockets net the following night.

“(Bittner) played really well. He hadn’t played in a while and we kind of threw him into the fire…I see Bittner and (Owen) Sikkes, both ‘98 (born) goalies…that’s two young guys that we can build around for next year,” Stephens said.

At home on Saturday night, the Rock-ets held a lead into the third period thanks to a shorthanded goal from forward Dar-ion Nordick. Once again, Golden had a win within their grasp as they entered the final frame, but once again they would fall

short. Liam Plunkett notched the tying goal

after he beat Nelson high and on the glove side. The Rockets then ran into penalty trouble, and the Thunder Cats took full advantage.

With just a handful of minutes left in regulation, James Severs parked himself on the backdoor, to Nelson’s left, and fin-ished off a beautiful cross-ice pass from Carson Cartwright to give the Cats their first lead of the game.

“There were probably three of four pen-alties tonight that we just can’t take,” Ste-phens remarked.

The Rockets had one final shot to send the game beyond regulation when the Thunder Cats took an untimely penalty of their own with two minutes remaining. Stephens opted to pull Nelson to give his club a 6-on-4 advantage.

The Rockets failed to generate any ser-ious opportunities and the Thunder Cats eventually broke out of their own zone and found the empty net to give themselves a 3-1 lead and put an end to the Rockets’ hopes.

Stephens believes that, all things con-sidered, the mental state of his club remains strong.

“It’s hard to figure out, to put your finger on one thing that’s going to be a difference maker for us here. This weekend I felt the boys had a real good compete level…both games we were right in it,” Stephens said.

“Overall I think the boys are in a good mental state. We’re understanding where we are as a team and we’re just trying to bat-tle through it.”

The Rockets have a busy week ahead with games on the road Tuesday in Fer-nie and Friday in Sicamous before a home date with the Chase Heat on Saturday in Golden.

Senior boys soccer team at GSS celebrates successful seasonHolly TurnerHead Coach

The Senior Boys Soccer Team at Golden Secondary School had a great season this year, playing a total of 18 games at tournaments in Revelstoke, Invermere, Nakusp, Cranbrook and Salmon Arm.

The most challenging weekend consisted of a five game tourna-ment in Cranbrook, after which we travelled to Nakusp for the zone playoffs.

The team consisted of players from grades eight to twelve. All the players showed tremendous improvement over the season and worked hard during practices. Most importantly, each player dem-onstrated true sportsmanship and put forth their best effort on the field.

The team would like to thank Mrs. Roberta Kohalyk and Mrs. Becky Rousseau for all their help in the organization required for travel. Also, we would like to thank James Ross who travelled to most of the games and provided nutritional snacks and drinks at half time and after the games.

The GSS Senior Boys Soccer Team wrapped up their season after five away tourna-ments. Photo Submitted

Golden Church ServicesQ – I just got my flu shot this week, but was wondering if there was anything else I could be

doing to keep myself and my family healthy this winter?A – This is a great question as the flu shot doesn’t protect against common colds, and it never

hurts to take steps to keep your family as healthy as possible this winter. A strong immune system goes a long way to prevent colds and the flu from establishing themselves in your body.

As always, common sense prevails. • Wash your hands regularly and thoroughly! • Treat your body well. • Eat regularly, at least three nutritious, balanced meals a day. Make sure to eat a

lot of fruits and vegetables. These are high in vitamins and minerals, essential for immune sys-tem health.

• Stay hydrated. Dry sinuses and membranes increase the ability of bacteria and viruses to enter the body. Consider using a humidifier if your home is very dry.

• Get 8 hours sleep a night. Allow your body its nightly rest to recover from the stresses of the day. • Keep up with the probiotics. A large part of the immune system is in the gut, so a healthy digestive sys-

tem means a strong immune function. • Discuss any herbal remedies or natural health care products with your naturopathic doctor or health

care professional. Although there are many great products out there that support the immune system, there may be cautions and contraindications that may result in more harm than help when considered for your individual case.

Even with these preventive steps, it is still possible to get a mild cold or flu every once in a while. This can actually be beneficial in allowing the immune system to grow stronger against ever-evolving bacteria. So the next time you get sick,

listen to your body, and give it the rest and care it deserves. This is the surest and fastest way to cure.

Myths & realities:

“Mom, they don’t murder girls”

▾ MYTH: Girls and women aren’t allowed to join gangs: Reality: Girls are joining gangs across Canada and there are many documented reports of

them being extremely violent. Girls are often used to hold and/or transport drugs

and/or guns because the girls and the gangsters don’t think

that the police will stop the girl…they are wrong.

The Net Result: Signs succeeds in creating a fear of the unknown

Signs is a thriller that triumphs on many levels but ultimately lacks in originality. Touchstone Pictures


It’s hard to imagine now, but there was a time when director M. Night Shyamalan produced critically acclaimed films. Movies that intrigued, thrilled and invariably contained a stunning plot twist.

On the back of The Sixth Sense and Unbreakable came Signs, a 2002 sci-fi thriller starring Mel Gibson (remember him?) and Joaquin Phoenix.

The story revolves around a farmer and ex-rever-end named Graham (Gibson) who lives on an iso-lated farm with his two kids, Morgan and Bo, and his younger brother Merrill (Phoenix). One after-noon Graham discovers a mysterious crop circle on his property. Initially he believes it is the work of vandals, but as other mysterious events begin to happen around their farm, Morgan starts to believe that the supernatural might be at play.

The family dog tries to attack the children, a strange figure is seen around the farm and on the roof of the farmhouse and more crop circles are reported on the news from around the world. All of it creates an eerily troubling mood in and around

the house. As was the case with The Sixth Sense and Unbreak-

able, Shyamalan does an excellent job pacing the film, revealing enough to make it exciting but not enough to make it feel overdone. By holding off on the reveal of the creatures that surround Graham’s farm, Shyamalan adds to the suspense. It’s not hard for the audience to develop a fear of the unknown.

At its core, Signs is a story about faith. Graham, having lost his faith following the death of his wife, has become a man of science, one who believes there is a logical explanation for everything that happens in his world. This contrasts with his broth-er Merrill, who wants to believe there is a reason for these strange occurrences, and one that can be explained by a higher power.

Looking back on it, it’s a rather simple theme and a simple premise that’s lacking in the originality department. While Signs is a strong thriller, it lacks a bit of depth.

For that reason I’ll give Signs 7 mouse clicks out of 10.

Renowned blues band set for Golden show


At 16, Donnie Walsh’s outlook on music changed forever.

The epiphany occurred at his then-girl-friend’s 16th birthday party.

“These guys showed up at the party and they were there before I got there and they had a double Jimmy Reed album, Live at Carnegie Hall, which wasn’t live and wasn’t at Carnegie Hall,” Reed laughed.

Walsh listened to Jimmy Reed all night and then went out and bought a Reed rec-ord of his own.

“I have no idea what it was, or I could have probably got a pill for it so I could

have got over it…the whole beat, the rhythm, everything…it was just unbeliev-able for me at that time,” Walsh recalled.

Whatever it was, Walsh was hooked on the blues and that experience led him to front one of Canada’s greatest groups in the genre, the Downchild Blues Band.

The band’s first album, titled Bootleg, was released in 1971 after being recorded in the basement of a high-rise building in Toronto.

“We started in the summer of 1969 and we got really popular. Somebody natural-ly said, ‘have you got a record?’ So we got a bunch of tunes together and went out and got the record,” Walsh said.

While the band’s music has clearly

evolved since their early efforts, Walsh is still proud of the group’s first few records.

“It was great. We pretty much knew how to play the blues at that time. It’s not as well recorded, but it has great sounds,” Walsh said. “I think our first albums, as far as I’m concerned, are as good as our latest albums. They’re just different.”

Altogether the group has released 17 albums, including their 2013 release Can You Hear The Music.

The current lineup features Walsh, Chuck Jackson on vocals, Michael Fon-fara on keyboard, Pat Carey on sax, Gary Kendall on bass and drummer Mike Fitz-patrick.

Part of what makes the group so success-ful, according to Walsh, is its adaptability depending on the audience.

“You can tell whether they want to dance or whether they just want to sit and enjoy the grooves. You can usually tell that right off after a song or two, and then you play your songs that are relative to what they want to hear,” Walsh said.

After 46 years in the business, it’s clear what keeps Walsh motivated and it’s the same thing that kept him motivated when he was just a teenager.

“I love the style of music and I really like creating songs and creating it into some-thing you can put on a record and listen to. And also, live audiences are really respon-sive to our music and that’s a major part of it as well,” Walsh said.

Walsh and the rest of the Downchild Blues Band will be in Golden for a a con-cert at the Civic Centre on November 19. Tickets are available at the Art Gallery of Golden.
