WE’RE CELEBRATING SENIORSElderly dogs can suffer from Canine Cognitive Dysfuncion or “doggy demenita”. Signs include confusion, disorientation, anxiety,decreased interaction with family and changes in sleep/wake cycles.If you think your dog may be showing these symptoms please call and set up an appointment for a visit today.

Offi cially recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) since 1992, fi bromyalgia is also known as fi brositis or fi bromyositis. This illness mainly aff ects women and is as pervasive as rheumatic arthritis. Fibromyalgia is characterized, fi rst and foremost by pain in the muscles, tendons and ligaments (the body’s fi brous tissues). Added to these symptoms are overwhelming fatigue and loss of energy. In fact. fi bromyalgia is quite similar to chronic fatigue syndrome.

CausesTo date, the causes of fi bromyalgia are

not known. It has been observed however, that fi bromyalgia often occurs after a trauma such as a fall, car accident, diffi cult delivery or surgery. Certain diseases can predispose individuals to fi bromyalgia including viral or bacterial infections. Also, psychological stress and insuffi cient or excessive physical activity tend to aggravate the symptoms associated with fi bromyalgia.

SymptomsThe chief symptoms of fi bromyalgia are

generalized, widespread pain or a burning sensation from head to toe. Pain intensity varies greatly and primarily aff ects the neck, shoulders, abdomen, lower back and thighs. Certain areas, or tender points, are more sensitive to touch. Persons with fi bromyalgia also suff er from sleep disturbances. Sleep is no longer refreshing and deep, leading to fatigue and loss of energy. Morning stiff ness can also occur. And, fi nally, fi bromyalgia can also lead to:• Anxiety • Mood changes• Tingling (feet, hand) • Muscle spasms• Headaches • Irritable bowel syndrome

DiagnosisFibromyalgia is an illness that requires a

medical diagnosis. Given that its symptoms closely resemble those of other diseases, it may be diffi cult for physicians to identify

FibromyalgiaSrinivas

ChalagallaB.Pharm., PhD

fi bromyalgia after only one visit It is important that the physician make sure that there is nothing else behind the various symptoms. A few tests may be required to rule out other illnesses. Nevertheless, a fi bromyalgia diagnosis can be made based on these criteria:• Absence of another health problem that could explain the pain;• Generalized pain for at least 3 consecutive months;• Test of 19 potentially sensitive points and analysis of the severity of fatigue, sleeping disorders and cognitive symptoms.

TreatmentBefore any treatment, good

health habits are essentials:• do weak impact physical activity or aquatic exercises;• maintain good sleeping habits;• acquire good eating habits and a healthy weight;• avoid tobacco, alcohol and caff eine excess.

When it comes to treating fi bromyalgia, we must treat the symptoms rather than the illness itself. A combination of several methods is therefore used: cardiovascular exercises, cognitive behavioural therapy (suitable psychotherapy) and education about the disease showed effi cacy to improve the symptoms.

Physicians can also prescribe medications. Anti-depressants help reduce tension, relieve pain, improve sleep and treat mood disorders sometimes associated with fi bromyalgia. Muscle relaxants, anti-infl ammatory medications, opiods (medication related to morphine) and lidocaine in cream may also be administered to relieve pain.

Jr. Canucks outof the basement

DAWSON CREEK— It’s lonely at the bottom.

For 14 games of the North West Junior Hockey League season, the Dawson Creek Ju-nior Canucks (2-12) have felt that way, and fi nally found their way out of last place with a 5-3 win over the Beaverlodge Blades (2-14) on Saturday.

Jordan Rea lead the way for the Jr. C’s putting home a hat trick in just his seventh game with the team. He now has sev-en goals in as many games and is second on the team in points behind Colton Gies.

The Junior Canucks took it to the Blades early scoring two power play goals in the open-ing period for a 2-1 lead. Rea and newcomer Narcisse Bap-tiste had the fi rst period goals.

Rea added another in the second and Brad Dixon scored his third of the season to make it 4-2 after forty minutes.

Rea fi nished the hat trick off with a goal midway through the third.

The Junior Canucks fi nished the night with three power play goals in seven opportunities.

Josh Round made 24 saves for his second win in his 10th try this season.

The Junior Canucks will look to move further past the Blades in the standings when they host the North Peace Naviga-tors on Saturday at Memorial Arena.

Reconciliation deal between Saulteau, B.C. will see nation get a 'fair share' of

resource revenues

SAULTEAU TERRITORY — The chief of Saul-teau First Nations says newly signed natural re-source and reconciliation deals with the prov-ince are the biggest thing since Treaty 8.

On Sunday, the nations celebrated the signing of New Relationship and Reconciliation agree-ments in a ceremony attended by three provin-cial ministers.

"It's a huge milestone in our nation's history and the province's history," said Chief Nathan Parenteau. "It's our next biggest agreement, the only bigger one would be the treaties in 1914. This is another step down that path."

The sweeping agreements will give Saulteau greater say over natural gas, coal and forestry developments in the nations' traditional terri-tory, centred around Moberly Lake. Saulteau is the largest of the B.C. Treaty 8 nations, with 1,000 members.

It's the fi rst such agreement signed with a Treaty 8 nation, and the government hopes it will be a model for other aboriginal groups in Northeast B.C.

"We're looking to advance the type of agree-ment we have here (with other Treaty 8 na-tions)," said John Rustad, minister of aboriginal relations and reconciliation.

"We're able to showcase the type of agree-ment we've been able to reach with the Saulteau. Other nations will have an opportunity to look at that and say whether they'd like to be part of it or not."

The agreements set out a framework for com-pensating the nation for resource development in its territories, through revenue and benefi t sharing agreements.

It also gives them a greater role in "wildlife stewardship, forest licence opportunities, water-shed planning and management of other areas," according to a release. It will also see the expan-sion of the Klin-se-za protected area, an area sa-cred to the nation.

Negotiations on the new relationship agree-ment began in 2007. The program is aimed at "closing the socio-economic gaps that separate Aboriginal people from other British Columbi-ans," according to the ministry.

DAWSON CREEK — Dawson Creek RCMP are handling more files than last year

with fewer members. According to data from the detachment,

Dawson Creek RCMP members are car-rying an average of 111 criminal code files per member so far this year. With just under six weeks left in 2015, the de-tachment has already passed the 2014 average of 110 files per member.

While the 25-member detachment has had four vacant officer positions for much of the year, which has added to the workload, they're also dealing with more calls overall. That's in part due to an uptick in drug violence attributed to an economic slowdown in the region.

In 2014, members had responded to 8,188 calls by November. This year, the detachment has fielded 8,951 so far, an increase of 763 calls.

If that trend continues, 2015 will be a

far busier year for the detachment than 2014, which ended with 9,197 files. This year has already surpassed 2013, which saw RCMP re-spond to 8,347 calls for service.

The detachment data contradicts a report to council in Grande Prairie, which stated Dawson Creek members carry an average of 80 criminal code investigations per member.

The data is generally used to compare po-licing resources in different communities.

According to RCMP in that city, which is facing "crisis" levels of violent crime, Grande Prairie officers carry an average 142 files.

On the Violent Crime Severity index, Dawson Creek scores a 113, according to the Grande Prairie data, compared to 131 for Fort St. John and 142 for Grande Prairie.

Today’s 5-year fi xed Rate 2.59(terms and conditions may apply)Hey everyone!

Hey everyone! It’s a time of big change for Canada, so here’s a quick update on the state of the Canadian mortgage industry under our new Liberal government:

There’s nothing to worry about!Yes, things are changing, but it’s not as bad as you might think. Canadians will always need aff ordable mortgages – no matter who the Prime Minister is, that will always be true. And so despite the fact that mortgage rates have been slightly on the rise recently, Canadians can rest assured that they’ll stabilize (and even come back down) sooner than you think.Here are some hard numbers from Steve Garganis over at Canada Mortgage News: “Since the election on Oct 19, [Government of Canada] bond yields have made a steady climb upwards… going from around 0.80% to 0.97% today [Nov 5].” That sounds dramatic until you consider that the Liberals ran on a campaign of increasing the defi cit; in the wake of their majority victory, investors are buying bonds in the hope that that promise is kept (and thus that their bond yields will increase in value). Here’s the rub, again from Steve Garganis: “If the yields go up, then fi xed mortgage rates go up. If they go down, then fi xed mortgage rates go down.” It’s a simple correlation – and it does a great job of explaining why mortgage rates are on the rise right now – but it doesn’t off er much in the way of prediction. The economy is vastly more complicated than can be summed up by a single equation, and that holds especially true during a period of political changeover. It’s fair to say that if the government keeps on borrowing, it will probably up the borrowing cost for average Canadians. But even with the government’s projected defi cit, the increase in mortgage rates for those average Canadians is expected to be “minimal,” and in my professional opinion we’ll start to see them coming down again right away. And keep in mind that standard mortgage rates right now are the lowest they’ve been in years, so even a slight uptick (as in the approx. 0.10% increase we’re seeing now) seems worse than it really is.

In short: our new Liberal government has only been in power for a few weeks, and we’re a far way off from having to worry about borrowing rates. Trust me, when that time comes I’ll be the fi rst to blog about it – but for now, things are pretty much right where we should expect them. We may be in a bit of a state of fl ux, but that’s true about the entire country as a whole.

If you still have any concerns about mortgage rates, or if you feel like any more of my opinions on the matter, remember that my phone is always on.That number again is (250) 782-9665.

cultural services, as well as other programs.That could include language immersion for the nation’s 160 school-aged

children in Cree and Dene languages.He said getting a “fair share of the resources on the land” would go “directly

towards rebuilding the culture that was essentially lost and assimilated over the last 100 years.”

He said there are also plans to restore an old hunting cabin for use as a drug and alcohol treatment centre.

Education minister Mike Bernier and forests minister Steve Thomson also attended Sunday’s ceremony.

Local NewsNew cab rules take effect

DAWSON CREEK — New rules for cabs in the city of Dawson Creek will give customers a clear idea of who they're driving with.

The city passed an updated taxi by-law earlier this fall, which sets new rules for how cabs look and operate.

Abraham Koshin, owner of Golden Cabs, approached council earlier this

year about updating the rules govern-ing taxi fleets in the city.

He said some owner/operators were driving freelance for other cab compa-nies while still bearing his company's logo, which he said confused custom-ers.

Without updated rules, there was little local law enforcement could do to enforce appearance standards, he said.

Operators are required to paint their vehicles a standard colour sometime

within the next year. The bylaw gives the city and local law en-forcement the ability to pe-nalize drivers whose cabs are not accu-rately marked.

He added that his fleet is now equipped for wheel-chairs and seals that pre-vent tamper-ing with the meter.

We little knew that morning thatGod was going to call your name.

In life we loved you dearly,in death we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you,you did not go alone;

for part of us went with you,the day God called you home.

You left us peaceful memories,your love is still our guide;

and though we cannot see you,you are always at our side.

Our family chain is broken,and nothing seems the same;but as God calls us one by one,

the chain will link again.
