TRE VOR CR AWLEYAfter a trial that had run for seven

days, Crown counsel abruptly re-quested a stay of proceedings for an RCMP officer who was charged with careless use of a firearm.

Announced last week, the request capped off a three-year long saga for Richard Drought, a 15-year veteran of the RCMP was involved in a shoot-ing incident in October 2012 on a rural acreage near the College of the Rockies Gold Creek campus.

As part of the trial, the Crown had brought forward expert and witness testimony, including that of Nickolas Bullock, who was shot at the conclu-sion of a high-speed pursuit through Cranbrook.

According to a spokesperson from the Criminal Justice Branch, the stay of proceedings was request-ed because the likelihood of a con-viction was not substantial based on the emergence of new evidence.

The Cranbrook Health Care Auxiliary held its annual fundraising Fashion Show Thursday, Oct. 15, at the Heritage Inn. The event is one of the auxiliary’s biggest fundraisers of the year and all funds raised will go towards purchasing equipment for the ICU expansion at the East Kootenay Regional Hospital. Models and organiz-

ers were joined by Master of Ceremonies Loree Duczek, Auctioneer D’Arcy Kennedy, and Kootenay Ice players Tanner Lishchynsky and Matt Alfaro. The place, of course, was packed, and the joint was jumping. Bids on outfits came fast and furious. Photos by Denise Robison and Barry Coulter

Arne PetryshenThe Salvation Army

in Cranbrook is provid-ing six schools with $1,000 each to help feed hungry children. That is $6,000 total the organi-zation is giving.

“Feeding hungry children is our biggest program,” said Major Kirk Green, from the Salvation Army. “So we picked what we consid-ered to be the six hun-griest schools and we gave them each $1,000 to go towards their feed-ing programs, which is in addition to the 20,000 school lunches we will prepare this year.”

Major Green said the number of lunches the Salvation Army provides in Cranbrook has gone up quite a bit over the years.

“It was only about three years ago that it was 12,000,” he said. “And now it’s 20.”

Green said this year they also got some help

The Salvation Army donated a total of $6,000, which was divided up between six schools in Cranbrook, and will go towards feeding hungry children in those schools.

with their school lunch program, as the United Way gave them $4,000 this past year.

“They asked if they can help and I said that would be awfully nice if somebody bought the

bread for us,” Green said. “So they did, $4,000 worth of bread. That’s a lot of loaves of bread.”

C ArOLyn Gr AntUp until a few years

ago, Kimberley was free of Columba livia do-mestica, the domestic pigeon. But suddenly, you could spot one or two in town, and now you can seldom walk through the Platzl with-out seeing them.

The image of people tossing crumbs to pi-geons is fairly iconic — picture St. Mark’s Square in Venice. But not everyone appreci-ates the presence of pi-geons. At their regular Council meeting last week, Council was asked by a local busi-ness owner, Michelle Forbes, of City Bakery, to do something about people feeding pigeons in front of hers and a neighbouring busi-ness.

Forbes says feeding attracts more and more pigeons and they are becoming a problem.

“Initially there were three or four pigeons, which is not a problem, but as he has persisted feeding the pigeons every morning, this has

Plenty of pigeons populate Platzl, and people are peeved

grown to about 30 birds that have taken up roosting on the bakery roof and surrounding roofs. This is a health issue, as the large num-ber of birds leave bird feathers and droppings, with feathers ending up inside of food establish-ments, which could ac-tually have businesses shut down.”

Forbes told Council she had spoken with the bylaw officer and City staff, but doesn’t

feel there is a satisfacto-ry solution yet.

She believes pigeons should be added to Kimberley’s Do Not Feed Wildlife Bylaw.

Mayor Don McCor-mick says Council had quite the discussion about where pigeons fell into the city’s wild-life bylaw.

“How broad is the bylaw? We’re going to review that,” he said. “At the end of the day, peo-ple know you shouldn’t

feed pigeons. “There is not a lot a

municipality can do to stop something people know they shouldn’t do. But if you see it, speak up. Peer pressure associated with be-haviour can have an af-fect.”

McCormick says there are a lot of restau-rants in the Platzl, many with outdoor patios.

“People eat outside, crumbs are dropped. If there’s less of that, the pigeons will go away. It may not be a major issue, but we’ll pay at-tention.”

However, McCor-mick says there is a broader aspect to this beyond pigeons or deer, and that’s the notion that if there’s a be-haviour you don’t like, the city has to stop it.

“There is no way one bylaw officer can cover everything,” he said. “Our bylaw enforce-ment does respond to complaints coming through. It’s the only re-alistic thing we can do and for the most part it works well.”

Not everyone appreciates the feathery presence of Columbia Livia in the Platzl.

Without going into specific details, MacKenzie noted that the new evidence related to the scene of the shooting and how the incident had allegedly occurred, which affected the Crown’s assessment of whether it could be proven that the officer’s ac-tions were an excessive use of force in the circum-stances.

“It’s not unusual for evidence at trial to come out differently than what Crown anticipated and there is sometimes additional evidence that comes up during the course of a trial or a different aspect, a different way of looking at certain evidence,” he continued.

“…We, as prosecutors, have a responsibility to apply our charge assessment standard on an on-going basis and so, if at any point, we’re no longer satisfied that the charge assessment standard for continuing a prosecution is met, then it’s our re-sponsibility to end the proceedings and that’s what the trial Crown concluded, in this case.”

On Oct. 2, 2012, Bullock carjacked a Toyota 4Runner near Yahk along with a underage female accomplice with the plan of going to Calgary.

Drought picked up the chase on Highway 3/95 near Elizabeth Lake just outside Cranbrook, and pursued the the stolen 4Runner up Victoria Ave before it crashed through a wooden fence on a rural property.

At the conclusion of the incident, 11 shots were fired from an RCMP service pistol, with Bullock receiving wounds to his wrist and shoulder. He, along with his accomplice were arrested and taken into custody.

The Independent Investigations Office (IIO) was a newly created investigatory body at the time, with the mandate of investigating officer-related incidents of death or serious harm in order to de-termine whether or not an officer may have com-mitted an offence.

The IIO investigated the incident and forward-ed a report to Crown counsel on April 3, 2013, with a charge of careless use of a firearm being ap-proved five months later.

New evidence led to stayed charge

Continued from page 1 The market wrapped up its summer season on Thanksgiving week-end. She said it could not have been better.

“The weather was just gorgeous and we had 55 vendors out in Rotary Park that day,” she said. There was also live music and she said it all added up to be great event. “The mar-ket patrons were happy, the vendors were happy and the music was love-ly. It was the nicest Thanksgiving market that I’ve seen for sure.”

She said it’s been a fantastic year and thanked the community for supporting the mar-ket.

Next up is the Winter Market, which is Nov. 27, 28 and 29 at the 1114 Baker Street location.

“We’re looking for-ward to that,” she said. “We have about 60 ven-dors that attend the Winter Market. It’s very popular with both ven-dors and market pa-trons, so we’ve got a wide variety of folks.”

She said while there won’t be the assortment of fruits and vegetables that are seen at the sum-mer markets, there will still be things like ap-ples, root vegetables and greens.

The market also fea-tures lots of food and artisanal products.

“A lot of the things that people just love to buy locally in prepara-tion for the holiday sea-son that comes up right after that,” she said.

She said last year they expanded the win-

markets around the province, like in Victoria and Vancouver that have year-round or mar-kets that run through the season, not just the traditional growing months, if you will.”

Market gets stronger every year

ter market from two days to three, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This year they will do that again.

“That just gives shoppers that extra day to be able to take advan-tage of it, and then it also means that we can offer some space to some different vendors, so people can come on Friday night and see dif-ferent vendors than they might see on Saturday or Sunday afternoon.”

She also noted that at the board meeting this week the board will be putting the final touches on another indoor mar-ket season starting most likely in January.

She said to stay tuned for news on that.

OpiniOn/EvEnts

Letters to the editorWayne stetski

A number of letters have appeared in the Townsman over the past few months heaping abuse and scorn on Wayne Stets-ki for running for Parliament. Their tone can best be defined as decibels and epi-thets over facts and arguments.

The authors often invoke the fact that Stetski lost the last municipal election, and so he did. But virtually all of the crit-icism is factually wrong or decontextual-ized: it can be summed up by two slo-gans, “frivolous spending” (which has neither been documented nor discussed in any substantive detail) and “potholes” (which suggests Stetski somehow per-sonally refused to execute the long term maintenance plan developed with city engineers, and underfunded by the pro-vincial government).

One could be forgiven for thinking that the abuse amounts to a politically orchestrated campaign by partisan inter-ests. Oh well, every caravan has its bark-ing dogs. Stetski is not disqualified from running for and contributing to public office and the democratic process be-cause of losing an election. Indeed, he demonstrates personal courage and commitment to our communities in run-ning again.

All of our candidates give enormous amounts of time, money and energy to the demands of seeking public office. They do so at huge personal cost to them-selves and their families.

Democracy doesn’t work without vig-orous competition among folks with dif-ferent ideologies and perspectives. How about a little respect for the endeavour and the candidates? Or would the critics prefer a mayor or MP for life — one who is identical to them, of course — who never has to test his or her ideas in an electoral competition?

Wayne ackermanIn the 14 October paper you pub-

lished the obituary for Mr. Wayne Acker-

man.Many years ago Mr Ackerman played

a very significant role in my life.The first was with my role as the Ad-

ministrator of the Village of Fraser Lake. I had previously been mayor of the Village for four terms so when the Administrator quit I was working in Prince George and thought that if I could get the Fraser Lake job my family would be able to remain in Fraser Lake

I got the job. On my first day the trea-surer quit. You must remember that in a village office you have an administrator, a treasurer and a stenographer. Thats it There is no backup.

My very first action as Administrator was to contact the accounting firm which performed the village audit. The man I talked to, and, who saved my bacon was Mr Ackerman. I thought the world was coming to an end and in his calm and professional manner he had us on the right track in a very short time. I was for-ever grateful.

In the 1980’s a movement was started in central British Columbia to have a uni-versity located in Prince George. In order to finance the lobbying costs expressions of interest were sold for I believe it was 5 or 10 dollars. I was given an area to sell these in and I guess the hunger for higher education was so great that I sold several hundred and as a result gained some as-sociation with the cause.

In 1994 the official opening of the Uni-versity of Northern BC occurred. My wife, Arline, and I drove the 100 miles to Prince George.

When we entered the outdoor seating area we found a seat by beside Wayne Ackerman. He looked at our programme and commented there was something different about it. As it turned out the programme we were given enabled us to meet the Queen. If Wayne had not looked at our programme this event would never have occurred.

I thank Wayne for the gifts of his friendship and guidance.

release of NamesOne of the comments we see most

often on media sites below a police story is, who was involved, what are the names, why don’t they say who?

The Privacy Act governs the names and release of information. In most cases people want to know who committed the crime or who was arrested, but in other cases there are comments seeking infor-mation of persons involved in traffic col-lisions or those that have died.

The RCMP is not allowed to release the name of a person that is simply ar-rested. The person must be charged prior to their name being released. RCMP pol-icy goes one step further and does not release the name until the person makes a court appearance. In some cases a per-son is in custody, charges are laid they go before a Justice of the Peace for a bail hearing. This addresses release or deten-tion, not the allegation and as such there is limited information. The police gener-ally don’t make a habit of following up when a person is charged and when their court date is for the purpose of informing the public. The court lists are on line and available to anyone unless there is a pub-lication ban, media outlets often use them to add a name to the story. Police are also restricted in what they can say once the matter is before the courts. So if a person is charged and the name be-comes public police can’t discuss the ev-idence.

The RCMP can release names and photographs for persons where there is a Warrant of Arrest. They will also release names if there is a risk to the public, but only after careful consideration. Often involving legal consultation, balancing privacy and safety.

In the case of a deceased person, the BC Coroners Service is responsible for the release of names. The police will can issue a brief release outlining the circum-stances but further details and names will come from the Coroner’s Service.

C AnAdiAn PressOTTAWA - Elections

Canada is making preparations to cope with what the agency expects will be a heavy voter turnout for Mon-day’s election.

The agency says re-turning officers in indi-

vidual ridings can either add additional staff to count advance poll bal-lots or if extra workers aren’t available, the vote count can start before the polls actually close.

Elections Canada says in ridings where there is an early count,

officials and witnesses present won’t be able to leave and others won’t be able to enter the room before the count-ing session ends.

The agency is pre-paring for contingencies because of the higher turnout for advance

polls last weekend.Some 3.6 million bal-

lots were cast over a four day period - an increase of 71 per cent over ad-vance ballots in the 2011 election, when only three days of advance polls were held.

Elections Canada

says because of the higher number of ad-vance ballots to be counted and the poten-tial of a busy voter traffic on election day, it is au-thorizing the measures to ensure results are known in a timely man-ner.

Elections Canada prepares for heavy voter turnout in today’s election

A fter the longest campaign in Cana-dian history, Election Day has final-ly arrived.

Over the last several weeks, federal party leaders have been criss-crossing the coun-try, while local candidates do the same in Kootenay-Columbia riding, and now voters will have the chance to make their voices heard.

In Cranbrook and Kim-berley, there are a few differ-ent polling stations; Elections Canada mailed out voter reg-istration cards that will direct you where and when to vote. If you haven’t received a voter registration card, you can go online to www.elections.ca and run a search of your address, which will direct you to a polling station.

In addition to the Elections Canada website, you can call toll free at 1-866-754-5448 to speak to someone at a local Elec-tions office.

Advance polling has been high through-out the Kootenay-Columbia riding and in-deed, across the country. While a local Elections spokesperson couldn’t give an exact figure, he said in an article that ran last week in the Daily Townsman that num-bers have been higher than in the past.

Indeed, the same narrative has played out a national stage, as eager voters are out early to cast their ballot, while others maybe hope to beat out long lines that form on Election Day.

Regardless, we’ll all find out who will form government Monday evening.

The election campaign has taken a life of it’s own both federally and locally.

Federally, all parties have been hit by

scandals of candidates resigning for com-ments made on social media.

Welcome to politics in the 21st century. But ultimately, people aren’t going to

vote by what candidates say or do on social media.

The federal parties have strung together a predictable narrative over the last few

months as they pitch them-selves as the most suitable governing party.

Each party platform can be viewed online, but it’s al-ways interesting to see how people vote—some cast a ballot based on the party leader, others on their local

riding candidate. Therein lies the rub for many. When it comes to the nationwide con-

versation on the issues, it’s been frustrating as of late.

What began as an important discussion on the economic record of the Conserva-tives since the Great Recession at the be-ginning of the campaign has devolved into partisan wedge issues, such as the niqab debate.

This isn’t meant to be an examination of where the parties stand on each major issue, but one major point worth mention-ing is where parties stand on electoral re-form.

In 2011 federal election, there were 14,720,580 votes cast in total. Of that total, the Tories captured 5,832,401 ballots—39 per cent.

And yet, they formed a majority govern-ment.

Vote splitting has a large part to do with it; the Liberals used the split between the

Reform Party and the Progressive Conser-vatives in the 1990s to win three consecu-tive majorities. After the two opposition parties merged, they used that same strat-egy against the Liberals and the NDP to split the left-wing vote for the last nine years.

The current electoral format uses a ‘first past the post’ system, where the candidate who wins the most votes in an electoral riding wins a seat in the House of Com-mons.

It sounds simple, because it is. However, it’s disconcerting that any

party can form a majority government when it doesn’t receive a majority percent-age of the popular vote.

The Greens, NDP and the Liberals are proposing electoral reform if elected, while the Conservatives are pledging to maintain the first past the post system.

In provincial politics, there was a refer-endum in the B.C. election in 2009 to move to a Single Transferable Vote (STV) system, but it was defeated by 60 per cent of the vote.

This isn’t meant to be an indictment of first past the post or the current govern-ment, but with all the talk about strategic voting, it’d be nice to utilize a system where each vote has the potential to have an effect on the ultimate outcome beyond the riding boundaries.

All that being said, regardless of how you lean on the political spectrum, be sure to exercise your democratic right on Mon-day.

Get out and vote.

Taylor rocc aSports Editor

For the third time in 11 days, the Kootenay Ice watched as valuable points walked away in the dying moments of regulation.

Saturday night at Western Financial Place in Cranbrook, the Prince Albert Raiders (8-2-0-1) were the culprits, thiev-ing a 1-0 win with 15.2 seconds remaining in the third period.

“It’s brutal. Twice with this team. We’re up in Prince Albert [Oct. 6] and we’re close to forc-ing overtime and they score,” said Luke Pierce, head coach of the Koo-tenay Ice (2-9-0-0), fol-lowing Saturday’s loss.

“[We are] a young team — but we have to stop using that excuse. How many times do you have to learn the same lesson? The game doesn’t end until there’s a buzzer. I think we play those last couple min-utes — in both games — just waiting for a buzzer to go off, instead of let-ting it tick down. Hope-fully twice is enough and we’ll learn from there.”

With goose eggs on the scoreboard for both teams and the final mo-ments rushing off the clock, the Raiders ap-plied pressure deep in Ice territory before a turnover allowed for-ward Austin Glover to walk out from below the goal line and find the only chink in Wyatt Hof-lin’s armour.

The air and anticipa-tion that was in the building as three-on-three overtime loomed rushed out, or at the very least, filled the sails of the Raiders with only 15.2 seconds remaining in regulation.

Saturday’s deflating defeat wasn’t the first of this nature for the Ice.

In Prince Albert on Oct. 6, it was Raiders forward Jordan Tkatch thrusting the dagger into the Ice with 43 sec-onds to go in a 3-3 tie.

In Moose Jaw on Oct. 10, it was Warriors for-ward Dryden Hunt stealing two points for his club with only 1:07 to go in the third period of another 3-3 draw.

Despite the outcome,

Hoflin was stellar from start to finish and cer-tainly not to blame for the lone goal mustered between the two clubs. Even though he faced fewer shots than coun-terpart Ian Scott, the Raiders sent a number of quality scoring chances towards the Kootenay crease and the 20-year-old native of Spruce Grove, Alta. was there to answer for 59 minutes and 45 seconds.

“It’s hard for us, es-pecially when we had 59 minutes of pretty good scoring chances and then a breakdown at the end costs us a goal,” Hoflin said Saturday.

“You can have a good effort, but if you’re not winning hockey games, you’re still in the same position in the stand-ings. For us, it’s trying to turn those good efforts into wins and be consis-tent with those good ef-forts.”

At the other end of the rink, Scott was the busiest of the two goal-tenders, turning aside 33 shots for his first ca-reer WHL shutout.

“I give credit to their young goalie,” Pierce said of Scott. “He was very good.”

Very good, indeed.At 6-foot-3 and 168

pounds, the 16-year-old native of Calgary per-formed well beyond his age in backstopping the Raiders to a fourth con-secutive triumph.

The two teams bat-tled to a scoreless draw through 40 minutes, ex-changing a handful of scoring opportunities.

Ice winger River Be-attie had what was per-haps the best scoring chance of the first two periods.

With Raiders de-fenceman Dalton Yorke serving a roughing minor, Beattie snuck in behind the Prince Al-bert defence before tak-ing a stretch pass at the opposition blue line.

Protecting the puck, the 18-year-old winger drove the net before chipping the puck off the blocker of Scott. The rebound continued be-hind the Raiders net-minder before finding the iron and staying out to keep the game score-less.

Raiders right wing Reid Gardiner was dan-gerous from start to fin-ish, including being at the centre of a few odd-man rushes that Hoflin was able to answer.

The heartbreaking 1-0 defeat came on the heels of a 6-3 loss to the Medicine Hat Tigers Fri-day night, in which Hof-lin was, once again, stel-lar.

In Medicine Hat, the Tigers jumped out to a 4-1 lead after 40 min-utes before third-period goals from right wing Zak Zborosky and Beat-tie pulled the visitors to within one.

Another late turnover cost the Ice, as right wing Austin Mowbray took advantage for the Tigers to make it 5-3 before an empty-net goal from Chad Butcher rounded out the scoring.

Zborosky tallied twice in Medicine Hat, while defenceman Dylan Overdyk added two as-sists. On the other side of the puck, centre Steven Owre paced the hosts with two goals and new-comer Austin Lotz turned aside 28 pucks for his first victory as a Tiger.

Hoflin faced 46 shots from the Tigers, making 41 saves.

The Ice go without a

week of practice once again, as they host the Regina Pats on ‘2-for-1 Tuesday’ Oct. 20 (7 p.m.) at Western Financial Place.

Daily Townsman Three Stars (Oct. 17):

1) G Wyatt Hoflin, Kootenay Ice (23 saves)

2) G Ian Scott, Prince Albert Raiders (33 saves)

3) RW Reid Gardin-er, Prince Albert Raiders

Notes: The Ice went with out D Cale Fleury (upper body), D Tyler King (knee), RW Jaedon Descheneau (upper body), RW Max Patter-son (upper body) and D/F Nathyn Mortlock Saturday. With Mortlock scratched, the Ice went

one skater short (6D, 11F) against the Raid-ers… Saturday became the third 1-0 outcome the Ice have been a part of in 2015-16. Sept. 26, the Calgary Hitmen edged the Ice 1-0 at the Scotiabank Saddle-dome. Wednesday

night, the Ice snuck past the Moose Jaw Warriors 1-0 at Western Financial Place… The reported at-tendance at Western Fi-nancial Place was 1,918 Saturday night, up from 1,769 Wednesday when the Warriors visited Cranbrook…

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You will be unstoppable, no matter which way you turn. You’ll hold your own in a dis-agreement while still being kind to the other party. Take charge, but understand that many extra responsibilities could descend on you as a result. Tonight: Out till the wee hours. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Be imaginative and sponta-neous. A child or new friend could be a source of good feel-ings. Don’t allow a misunder-standing to get bigger. As you gain a more complete perspec-tive, you’ll recognize how easily mistakes can happen. Tonight: Kick up your heels. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You’ll feel more relaxed at this time with one person rather than several. Schedule your day accordingly, especially if you notice a tendency to encounter misunderstandings. Feelings might be intensifying with a loved one. Tonight: A friend could surprise you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You might have a lot of anxiety about a personal matter. Don’t worry; you will discover other ways of resolving or lessening your discomfort. A boss or rel-ative could be cantankerous. Listen carefully, but don’t in-ternalize this person’s message. Tonight: Say “yes” to an offer. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You might want to consider your alternatives. You have so much to do, yet you still will want to clear up a conversation. You know this talk could take a lot of time. You have the ability to squeeze in what you need to do as well. Trust yourself. Tonight: An unexpected development. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You’ll structure your day with care. You also understand that others won’t always be in sync with your needs. Expect some uproar from a close friend. When confronted with an obstacle, you tend to clear it up quickly. Tonight: Let someone else make the first move. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You might be more focused on

a personal matter than you real-ize. Attempt to clear up the issue as quickly as possible. Some of you will opt to stay close to home; some of you might be considering a home-based busi-ness as well. Tonight: Expect a little disruption. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your intensity speaks for itself. Someone’s words could sting and upset you. Rather than have a knee-jerk reaction, hold off for a little while -- you might have misunderstood. A meeting or get-together with a friend be-comes very important. Tonight: Get some exercise first. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Stay focused on the big picture, which could involve work as well as friends. The people in your life might be unusually difficult. Re-member the importance of what you’re doing, and stay on track. Don’t allow all the fussing to become dominant. Tonight: The only answer is “yes.” CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You unintentionally might challenge others. A boss or par-ent could feel intimidated. You

know what you are going to do. Discuss it less, and just act. You are likely to get a lot of feedback that you’d prefer not to hear. Tonight: Avoid someone who creates hassles for you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Don’t be surprised if you decide to be reclusive. You might be re-playing the same scenario over and over in your head. You also could be exhausted. Surprising news forces you to regroup. Know what is happening, as it allows you to make better choic-es. Tonight: Get some R and R. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Zero in on what you want, despite the fact that someone is giving you a lot of flak. You might wonder what would be best to do under the present cir-cumstances. Don’t overthink this issue. You still are going to do whatever you want. Tonight: Use caution when handling funds.

Dear Annie: About four years ago, after 17 years of marriage (no children), working full time, having a part-time cleaning job, doing 90 percent of the housework and doing 80 percent of the yardwork, I asked my husband whether I could quit my full-time job. I was 42 and in good shape but was having painful back problems from the type of work I did. My husband had a good job, and with a little bit of corner cutting, we didn’t need the money from my job. He agreed, but after a while, he began to seem distant and started talking constantly about a girl at work -- how amazing she was because she worked full time and went to school while caring for her two children. After months of this, I thought a second part-time job might make him treat me with more respect. Then my mother broke her arm, and my father needed treatment for prostate cancer. So I helped them, along with working two part-time jobs and doing the housework and yardwork. It didn’t help. My husband hung out with that “amazing” girl. He also spent a lot of time with a guy who convinced him that I was a freeloader. After a horrible vacation where he bought earrings for Ms. Amazing and presents for her sons, I found emails between them. He admitted he was in love with her but said nothing had happened. He eventually moved out and filed for divorce, but when he heard that I had moved to Hawaii, he tried to woo me back. After six months of promises that he had changed, I returned home. I recently found a text from this same girl, asking when he’ll be working with her again so they can go to lunch. I left the house. He says the girl has a boyfriend and I’m overreacting. Am I? -- Hawaii-Bound Dear Hawaii: You never actually resolved the issue with Ms. Amazing, so any contact your husband has with her is going to set off all of your alarms. The fact that he wooed you back doesn’t mean he is no longer vulnerable to her charms. In order for your marriage to survive, he needs to stop all contact with this woman, not only for your sake but for his. Get counseling, with or without him, so you can move forward one way or the other. Dear Annie: This is about the letter from “Miffed,” whose 10-year-old grandson doesn’t like to be touched. I was the same. From age 9 through my teenage years, I hated it when people touched me, even my parents. Hugs and kisses were hard to tolerate. I think some of it was from being bullied so much at school, but mostly, it was just the way I was. Touching is extremely personal, and I show my affection in other ways. In my family, we compromised by my greeting close relatives with a short hug and a peck on the cheek, and then they would leave me alone for the rest of the day. I wasn’t crazy about doing it, but my mother insisted. I managed to buy my peace with a kiss. -- Didn’t Like It, Either Dear Didn’t: We’re glad that you and your mother reached a compromise that was OK with you. But no parent should insist that a child hug or kiss anyone. Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

In Loving Memory of Ormand E. WaiteWho left us October 19, 2008

“Where do I begin to tell the story of how great our love has been….a sweet Love Story.”

When days are sad and lonely and everything goes wrong,

We can hear you whisper “Cheer up and carry on.”

Each time we look at your picture, you seem to smile and say,

“Don’t cry, I’m safe and free from pain, we’ll meet again one day.”

Forever Loved - Vicki and Family

Brent leaves behind: Marlene his wife of 35 years, son Aaron (Karling), daughter Allie (Ryan), and four grandchildren; Ayla, Kadence and Penelope Laidlaw, and Dax Borgstrom. He will also be missed by his brothers John, Elliot and Barry. Born and raised in Nelson BC, Brent was the youngest son of Bob and Mona Laidlaw. He later moved to Cranbrook where he met his wife Marlene and they married in 1980. He studied at the University of Victoria before beginning his career in the lumber industry.Brent was loving, wise, and generous. He valued his family. A devoted father, he took great joy in coaching his children’s sports teams, and he helped foster many children’s love of sports through decades of coaching, and mentorship. Although he and his brothers were separated by distance they always remained close, exemplified by the adventures on their annual fishing trip. His other passions included reading, puzzles, camping, and exploring new places. Brent was loved by many and will be sadly missed. A memorial service will be held 1:00 pm, Saturday, October 24th at MacPhersons in Cranbrook.

Laidlaw, Brent

With heavy hearts, full of love, the family of Brent Laidlaw announces his passing.Brent was a beloved husband, father, grand-father, brother, and coach.

Above: The Fundraising Campaign for the Kimberley Splash Park received a boost on Saturday when Rotarians were present to share Free Treats and discuss the progress of the Project. Rotarians Melanie Holloway, Bev Mc Cormick, Sandra Roberts, Mike Cave and Ruth Heath were on hand to cut the giant cake which was prepared by Chef Shelby from BJ’s Restaurant. Many others came out to make a dona-tion. If you wish to donate as well, you may do so at Kootenay Savings Credit Union or by going online to www.kimberleyrotary.com/splashpark. Donations of $50.00 or more will receive a tax receipt.

At right: The YoYo King, Jesse Doucette, from Penticton was a big hit at Rotary Park on Saturday. Jesse demonstrated a more contemporary use of the yoyo and was eager to assist the kids present in learn-ing some tricks. It’s no longer just a ‘Walk the Dog’ world for Yoyo affectionados. You can find Jesse on YouTube.com. Search for Jesse Doucette.
