City workers upset over possible cuts

Pizza deliveryperson robbed at gunpoint; two suspects arrested

On Sunday, Sept. 6 at 8:17 p.m., Grand Forks RCMP received a call that a pizza delivery per-son was approached by two males with a gun and robbed of his vehicle and cash. The victim of the robbery was not injured.

At 8:45 p.m. a member of the Trail and Great-er District RCMP encountered the 2004 Pontiac Sunfi re on Highway 3B heading toward Ross-land, reported Sgt. Darren Oelke of the Trail de-tachment.

When the police attempted to stop the vehicle, it fl ed at a high rate of speed, lost control on a corner and struck a rock wall. The stolen vehicle

was demolished in the accident. One male was arrested at the scene of the ac-

cident and the second male was arrested after a brief track by a police dog. Neither suspect were severely injured. A loaded fi rearm was recovered from the vehicle.

Rylee Andrew Shipley, 18, of Nova Scotia and Collton Emery Knowles, 19, of Alberta have been charged with robbery with a fi rearm, possession of stolen property, possession of a prohibited fi re-arm, fl ight from police and other fi rearms related charges, Oelke confi rmed. Both made a fi rst ap-pearance in Rossland Provincial Court last week.

Connection to a similar robbery in the B.C. in-terior is also being investigated.

Respect. That was the bolded wording on the signs held up by about 15 people at a packed coun-cil meeting on Monday at City Hall. The protesters were upset that the city is cutting three full-time union positions.

The city released a press release on Sept. 10 saying, “The City of Grand Forks recognized the organization was fac-ing very real fi nancial challenges and has since made a commit-ment to asset man-agement that will help put the city in a sustainable fi nancial position.”

The release an-nounced eight steps towards achieving fi -nancial sustainability including: 1. Reduca-tion in some levels of service; 2. Reduction of FTE’s (full-time equivalent positions/jobs); 3. Increase in revenues i.e. moder-ate tax increase; and increases (moderate) in electrical, water and sewer rates.

The FTEs have turned out to be three full-time CUPE posi-tions in the city pos-sibly including the local union (CUPE 4728) president Sukie

Lawrence according to a press re-lease sent out yesterday (Tuesday) by CUPE.

All 32 Grand Forks municipal workers were on hand for the meet-ing holding up signs which read “Grand Forks city workers want a workplace built on RESPECT…not on recriminations and revenge — A message from CUPE 4728.”

Council did not bring up the

staffi ng or cutbacks during the meeting. This reporter asked during question period but was told that questions had to be about items on the agenda.

In the union’s press release, Lawrence said, “Eliminating the positions without layoff and recall rights contravenes the collective agreement between the city and its unionized workers. We believe

the cuts may have more to do with the poisoned workplace at the City of Grand Forks than with fi nancial considerations.”

Lawrence had spoken directly to the Gazette after the meeting and said the union members received a letter on Friday stating that three positions would be cut, although no names were mentioned.

Grand Forks city council chambers were packed on Monday for the regular meeting with municipal workers holding signs calling for respect in the work place. The signs refer to the announcement that three full-time positions at the city may be cut. Craig Lindsay photo

More than 20 riders and support crew came into Grand Forks on Saturday with the Cops For Kids ride.

The riders started in Kelowna on Friday and went up the Anarchist Pass by Osoyoos Saturday on their way to Grand Forks. The group had dinner at the Omega Restaurant on Saturday night before spending the night at the Ramada in Grand Forks.

The group was up early and had breakfast at the Ramada before heading off to Castle-gar and Nelson.

The ride raises awareness and essential funds for children in medical, physical or traumatic crisis.

“Our riders join us from across the region,

and they’ve each raised a minimum of $2,000 through various fundraising efforts in their own community,” said Julio Krenz, ride cap-tain.

“During the ride, local community groups, restuarnats and hotels generously extend their hospitality to our team. Saving on these costs allows us to put all of our ef-forts towards the children. We are very hon-oured to be welcomed into each community with such open arms.”

The event is in its 15th year and has raised over $3.1 million through the event. With requests from families on the rise, they’re working even harder to support the children who need it most. Funds from the event sup-port request for medical equipment, trans-portation to children’s hospital, specialized therapies and learning and mobility aids.

Riders for Cops for Kids leave on Sunday morning from the Grand Forks Ramada on their way to Castlegar. Leading the pack is Rob Gardner, a former RCMP officer in Castlegar.

With hibernation season fast ap-proaching, there has been an enor-mous increase in bear sightings throughout Grand Forks over the past weeks.

Bears are currently in a state of hyperphagia, a period of increased caloric intake to prepare for hiberna-tion. In their efforts to consume up to 20,000 calories per day, bears will be in relentless pursuit of all things edible.

Fruit trees are currently the main attractant drawing bears into popu-lated areas; if there is fruit in trees or on the ground, bears will use their in-credible sense of smell to locate it and will return to the food source until it has been exhausted.

As bears become habituated to hu-man food sources through access to fruit trees, garbage, barbecues, or bird feeders, they often become less wary of humans overall. If their behaviour escalates to become a safety concern for people, pets, or property, the Con-servation Officer Service will be noti-fied to manage the animal in question.

Relocation of problem bears has proven to be an ineffective manage-

ment tool. After an expensive and highly stressful move, a bear will most often travel tens or even hundreds of kilometres to return from where it was taken, or it will starve when it is un-able to locate food in unfamiliar terri-tory. As a result, when a bear becomes a safety concern it is most often de-stroyed.

To avoid the destruction of bears, we must be mindful of human behav-iour. If attractants are managed prop-erly, bears will have no reason to re-main in the community and will move on in search of food. Please remove all fruit and other food sources from your yard, and secure garbage until the day of collection. Thank you for doing your part to keep wildlife wild and our community safe.

If you or anyone you know needs advice or help removing fruit from trees, please follow WildSafeBC Grand Forks on Facebook or contact me at 25-442-7373 or at [email protected]. Wildlife sightings can be reported to the RAPP line at 1-877-952-7277.

Thank you to our sponsors, the City of Grand Forks, the Ministry of Environment and the B.C. Conserva-tion Foundation.

Photographer Mark Windsor has found many bears to capture through the lens this year; he’s nicknamed this Granby area bear “Smiley.” Yes, the bear seems friendly but don’t approach any bear with anything but a camera with a VERY good zoom lens. Mark S. Windsor photo

A gofundme account has been set up for the children of Susan Sunray Harris. Susan passed away on Sept. 1 after a battle with pancreatic cancer.

She was an avid volunteer with the GFI and other events and recently joined Grand Forks Fire/Rescue as a volun-teer firefighter. A former man-

ager at CIBC in Grand Forks and Roxul employee, she left behind Amanda, 19, and Mitchell Harris, 17.

The Harris kids were left extremely unprepared both emotionally and financially with expensive mortgage pay-ments, utility bills and grocer-ies among other expenses. To help please go to Susan Sunray Harris’ Memorial Fund at go-fundme.com/ym43t2mb.

It’s hard to imagine doing 50 years of anything. But when you enjoy what you are doing the time goes fast. For Joyce Muffly, who was honoured on Saturday for 50 years with the Girl Guides, it was a chance to help mold young girls.

Joyce held many roles, from music teacher to sleepover superviser to district treasurer. She was adored by all the girls who loved hearing her many stories.

There are many out there like Joyce who volun-teer their time to make the community a better place. Whether it is the Guides or cadet leaders, or local sports coaches, or people who join the many boards or other groups in town, all are important. If you get a chance be sure to thank the volunteers that you see for all the work they do without expecting anything in return.

To honour volunteers, the City of Grand Forks will be presenting a certificate of merit to selected volunteers at the Community Futures Small Business Awards on Oct. 15 at the Grand Forks Curling Rink.

Nominations are still open and are available at City Hall or on the city website at grandforks.ca. Nominations are accepted at City Hall or by email to [email protected] until Oct. 5 at 4 p.m.

HOW TO REACH US

Be kind to the frustrated headline writer, please

Poorly written headlines have long been the butt of jokes by comedians the world over—but not all headlines that become the news themselves were poorly written. Some were intentional and have become the stuff of pop-culture legend.

“Headlines body found in topless bar” ran on the New York Post front page on April 15, 1983. Vincent A. Musetto is the author of that headline and according to a Post story following his death this summer, he had to fight to get the headline into the paper.

It was an appalling crime. A psycho had invaded a Queens after-hours joint, shot the owner to death and then—on learning a female customer was a morti-cian—ordered her to cut off the victim’s head, which cops later found in the madman’s car.

Musetto, a managing editor, argued with then-executive edi-tor Roger Wood that the headline “expressed with unflinching pre-cision the city’s accelerating tail-spin into an abyss of atrocious crime and chaos.”

Here’s a few other “inappro-priate” headlines I found trolling the Internet. Intentional or not? Who knows.

Considered an all-time classic from the L.A. Times ca. 1968-70: “High Court Rules on Marijua-na.”

Or, “Missippi’s literacy pro-gram shows improvement.”

And, “Republicans turned off by size of Obama’s package.”

“Man accused of killing law-yer receives a new attorney.” I don’t know if that was intention-al but I do figure lawyers weren’t lining up for the job.

And a B.C. headline: “Nud-ists fight erection of towers near Wreck Beach.”

“Chick accuses some of her male colleagues of sexism.” Cer-tainly an eye-catching headline; I’m sure readers were almost dis-appointed to read that LAURA

CHICK was making accusations.“City unsure why the sewer

smells.”“Slowdown continues to ac-

celerate.”“Miracle cure kills fifth pa-

tient.”Now this one I know for sure

is unintentional. When laying up the paper, the person importing the stories will make room for a headline, and if none imme-diately comes to mind, will put in some words to set the space: “Think of a headline, 56 pt bold headline.”

I’ve learned to simply type a “g” to set the maximum space, so if that’s a Gazette headline, you know now what’s happened!

Headlines are definitely writ-ten completely for effect, to dra-matize, to virtually dare you not to read the story.

“How Beethoven ruined clas-sical music.”

This headline sounds like it came from the National En-quirer, but in fact, it came from a magazine called Mental Floss.

Of course I had to read the story! But I regularly read this

magazine and know this head-line is exactly what the story is about.

“Thumbing his nose at au-thority and whipping crowds into a frenzy, he changed music forever,” reads the subtitle. So he did in effect “ruin” classical mu-sic of the day and reshaped the course of the genre.

Seriously, a good headline is extremely hard to write. The writer needs to grab the reader’s attention—sometimes with only a few words. Add to that the fact that a headline should be a phrase, not a title. Action needs to be implied.

I admit that sometimes with a “stand-alone photo” I give up and use a title. (A stand-alone photo means there’s no story, just a caption—known in the newspaper business as a cutline).

I hope you give headlines a bit of thought, because I reckon they’re what I struggle with most—all on the pressure of deadline.

I just hope I don’t find one of my headlines on the Tonight Show or Late Night.

Opinion

Letters to the editor Bending plain languageAre the very people we elected to represent us at all levels of government deceiving

us? The answer to the question will vary depending

upon who is responding, but an opinion piece by Andrew Nikoforuk in The Tyee online newspaper gives us a glimpse of what has occurred in Canada during the past decade. It has the title, “Harper’s Newspeak—He loves naming laws with false slo-gans. (So do fascists.)”

Newspeak is a fictional form of language (speech or writing) that uses words in a way that changes their meaning especially to persuade people to think a certain way. It can effectively suppress free thought.

Nikoforuk refers to an essay written in 1995 by Umberto Eco, an Italian essayist, phi-losopher, literary critic and novelist and published in the New York Review of Books.

Eco grew up in Italy during the fascist rule of Benito Mussolini and his National Fascist Party. Mussolini was prime minister from 1922 until he was ousted in 1943.

Newspeak is not restricted to governments. Modern institutions and political parties use it to some degree.Nikoforuk mentions a notorious university (not named) whose li-brary guide refers to the rich as “people of material wealth,” obese individuals as “peo-ple of size,” poor people as individuals who “lack the advantages that others have,” and old people as individuals of “advanced age.”

In Canada at the federal government level a budget is an “economic action plan” and bitumen mines and pipelines are “Responsible Resource Development.”

Stephen Harper’s and his government have become more than adept at newspeak particularly with the titles of legislation that have no resemblance to their substance. Nikoforuk picked several.

Bill C-30 was named “Protecting Children From Internet Predators Act.” The bill does not mention children or predators by name but did approve of government Inter-net surveillance of Canadian citizens.

Bill C-377 was given the title “Union Transparency Bill” yet it had nothing to do with union transparency. It was designed to control the functioning of unions with red tape.

Human smuggling was addressed with a bill called “Preventing Human Smugglers from Abusing Canada’s Immigration Systems Act.”

Bill C-38, an omnibus bill that replaced or amended 70 laws, included 10 significant environmental laws. It was called the “Jobs, Growth and Long-term Prosperity Act.” Green Party leader, Elizabeth May called the bill “The Environmental Destruction Act.”

The Fair Elections Act, Bill C-23, promised that Elections Canada would have “sharper teeth, longer reach and a freer hand,” according to Pierre Poilievre, the min-ister responsible for democratic reform. In effect the bill muzzled Elections Canada by preventing it from talking about such things as voter turnout and robocalls. Under the bill, the Conservative party has funding advantages, and the bill has become known as “The Unfair Elections Act.”

Bill C-51, a highly contentious bill, is called the “Anti-Terrorism Act.” It was another omnibus bill that gave the government greater power to spy on Canadians. Even peace-ful protesters of major industrial projects like the Kinder-Morgan pipeline were treated as thought they were terrorists. Protesters at the Site C dam project are also under close surveillance for similar reasons.

In an essay written in 2012 Allan Gregg, a former pollster for the Conservatives stated, “The thing that is disconcerting and unsettling about all this is not just the sub-stance of these bills, but why a government would want to disguise that substance.”

Gregg also stated, “For the rule of law to work, the public must have respect for the law. By obfuscating the true purpose of laws under the gobbledygook of double speak, governments are admitting that their intentions probably lack both support and respect.”

The fascists who ruled Italy were well known for their black shirts and staged rallies but Eco believed they could also be found in plain clothes and that’s what Nikoforuk thinks has happened in Canada.

Does the knowledge of what is going on change anyone’s opinion of the way gov-ernments communicate with Canadians? One would hope so.

Say no to national park

Editor, The Gazette:Despite lots of indicators of residents

being worried, scared or livid about the water meters and their RF radiation, city council has decided to go ahead with the water meter program.

I know one elderly lady who is really scared about having one of these meters put in her. But what can she do? Council has bullied everyone into this program, with threats of what was it,

$2,500 or $3,000 for a pit meter if they don’t get a “free” one installed in the home? Who can afford the fines?

Her health is already compromised. Anything could tip the scales and make it worse. Just the stress and worry of hav-ing one of these RF radiation machines in the house will make things worse, never mind the possible effects of the radiation.

The meters are installed sometimes right in rooms where people are actively living, or sometimes in the basement just several feet below where the people

sleep. Way, way too close for comfort.There should be a provision by council

to allow those with compromised health to opt out of this program. To do other-wise would be cruel.

She would be better off with a pit me-ter, but the city would charge her for that. Who can afford $2,500 or $3,000?

There are many suspected links between RF radiation and cancer, brain tumors, etc. This abomination has been forced on us, despite better ways to save water. Did they really consider all the op-tions, or just make it look like they did?

Previous council, thanks a lot for the extra stress and anxiety in our lives, and for the potential harm to us from the RF radiation. You will always be remem-bered for what you did to our town, and not in a kind way.

This will always be on your con-science, if you have one.

Cecil Konkin,Grand Forks

Editor, The Gazette:City council, I have a very serious

health condition. I’m in and out of the hospital constantly. I’m really worried about putting one of those RF radiation water meters in my home.

It would have to be installed right in a room where I spend a lot of time, and close by right below where we sleep. This is not good.

Could we get a medical waiver if you would call it that, allowing us to not get an RF meter? My health is no good, and the meter would do me no good at all. It may make things much worse. The

worry isn’t going to help either. There are pit meters that can be in-

stalled, but we can’t afford the $3,000 of whatever you would charge.

It’s not fair to charge us money for this thing, no way. We have a very serious problem here that you are maybe making worse. You are bullying us into this. It should be up to the city to allow those with issues or problems to get some sort of waiver, so they aren’t in increased danger from these meters.

Don Lea,Grand Forks

Editor, The Gazette:The province of B.C. is again review-

ing the possibility of a national park in the South Okanagan. They are asking residents to comment on the proposal.

If our provincial government ap-

proves the South Okanagan National Park Reserve, the following will happen:

• Parks Canada now has full control and local input will be ignored. Ask those who live in Banff or Jasper.

CALL FOR NOMINATIONS CITY OF GRAND FORKS

VOLUNTEER APPRECIATION

The City of Grand Forks call for Volunteer Appreciation nominations period is officially open. Nomination forms are available at City Hall or www.grandforks.ca and can be emailed to [email protected] or dropped off at City Hall by Monday October 5, 2015 at 4 pm.

Volunteer(s) who receive this year’s Certificate of Merit will be honoured at the Community Futures Small Business Awards on October 15, 2015 at the Grand Forks Curling Rink from 5 pm - 7 pm.

Do you know of a special volunteer in our community?

• First Nations will be given management control of this park as they have in other national parks. If that happens they will be allowed special ac-cess to the park that non-First Nations people will not have.

This a current proposal by First Nations: “The areas dedicated to the national park would be managed in part-nership with the Sylix People under a consensus-based cooperative stewardship re-gime (similar to the successful model used in Gwaii Haanas), including the use of traditional ecological knowledge to mean-ingfully inform and guide park management and decision-making.”

Both the federal govern-ment and First Nations have now gained full control of our parklands, which means our local wants and needs are irrelevant. The province has given away our park and we will never get it back.

Our parks currently provide protection and management of the wildlife and wilderness areas while restricting com-mercial development. The pro-

vincial parks are well managed and most local stakeholders are satisfied.

We are on a very slippery slope, which may allow Parks Canada, First Nations and other special interest groups to control our public lands.

With few exceptions, wildlife and wilderness in the South Okanagan are not endangered but our control of this beautiful part of the world is in serious danger. Our lifestyle is slipping away.

Interference by the fed-eral government and special interest groups are not in our best interests. Remember, the federal government is big enough to give you a national park and strong enough to ignore your advice. We hope the province of B.C. will listen to our concerns, keep our pro-vincial parks intact, and make them work for everyone.

Time is getting very short but we still have time to write letters asking provincial of-ficials not to reopen negotia-tions with Parks Canada. It’s time for the silent majority to speak up and say we are

happy with how our lands and wildlife are now protected and a federal park is not required.

Numbers count with politi-cians and the proponents have written many letters in favour of a national park. This is why they are reconsidering their options with Park Canada.

Those of us who do not be-lieve a national park is a good idea thought the battle had been wwon when the province ended negotiations with Parks Canada but the war drums are beating again.

Those of us who speak up run the world. It only takes a few minutes to write provin-cial representatives.

You can reach MLA Linda Larson at Box 998, Oliver, B.C. V0H 1T0 (email [email protected]); or contact Mary Polak, Minister of Environment, Parliament Buildings, Victoria, B.C., V8V 1X4 (email [email protected]).

Say no to park Continued from page A5

Teachers and administrators have one year to get used to a new school curriculum before implementation at the K-9 level begins next year.

At the school board’s first meeting of the new year on Sept. 6, the board discussed the new curriculum that the Min-istry of Education is putting in starting next year for grades K-9 and the following year (2017-18) for grades 10-12. This year is expecting to be a trial year for the district for the new curriculum.

“It’s been in draft for two years,” said Kevin Argue, School District 51 (SD51) su-perintendent. “It’s been out for people to see and play with a little bit. There was a lot of op-portunity for feedback. Teach-ers have been involved with constructing the curriculum.”

As of September 2016, the K-9 curriculum will be in im-plementation phase, said Ar-gue.

“So then it won’t be draft anymore it’ll be expected that teachers have moved to the new curriculum for next Sep-tember. The new curriculum for 10-12 will be implemented in September 2017. It has just come out in draft for in the last week or so.”

Argue said the new curricu-lum has less specific learning outcomes such as you must cover this or that and a great focus on what’s called compe-

tencies.“They’ve structured it

around core competencies and big ideas,” he said. “The core competencies for all subjects are communication, thinking and personal and social skills. Those are in every subject. Then you have big ideas…which are an overriding theme that runs through the whole curriculum.”

He said there are also cur-ricular competencies to actual content, which are more spe-cific.

Teresa Rezansoff, SD51 board chair, said that teachers are able to see the new curricu-lum now. “Right now, the K-9 curriculum is out there,” she said.

“It’s actually been out there for the last year so teachers could get in and play with it if they wanted to. But this is a transition year—there it is ready to be played with for the schools and teachers to be able to do in-service to look at it and get a strong sense of it if they choose.”

The new curriculum for 10-12 is still in draft form and is essentially a year behind. “For now they will be getting feed-back into it,” said Rezansoff.

Rezansoff said the new cur-riculum allows teachers much more freedom to determine what to focus on and how much time to spend on each topic.

“We need to develop cur-riculum that will be responsive and flexible and adaptable to the needs of our students which

are changing much faster than say when I was a student,” she said.

Norm Sabourin, Boundary District Teachers’ Association president, said that he hopes teachers will not be expected to spent their own time learning and training on the new cur-riculum.

“With the new curriculum—on the surface there looks like lots of positives,” said Sab-ourin. “Teachers were involved in creating the new curricu-lum; so, it’s going in the right direction. The problem we’re worried about again is support and funding for teachers to be trained to use the new curricu-lum. They will absolutely fig-ure it out if they have to. But, again, it adds to the burden.”

Sabourin said the teachers are looking for help from the Ministry of Education through the district to help them effec-tively learn the new curricu-lum.

“They shouldn’t expect teachers to do it on their own time; in their evenings and weekends on top of all of the prep, all the marking and other headaches they have,” he said. “Every time the ministry adds another layer it’s just more weight on the shoulders and teachers bog down. Somehow teachers get it done but we’re seeing more and more health problems.”

Sabourin said all the extra stress and burden can lead to health problems down the road for many teachers.

CLASSIFIEDS

School District 51’s board of educa-tion didn’t take long to meet once school was back in session. The trustees met on Tuesday night at the school board office in Grand Forks and discussed several issues.Financial statements

The board heard a presentation from Josh Widman from the accounting firm of Grant Thornton from Kelowna. The firm audited the financial statements of SD51, which comprise the statement of opera-tions, statement of change in net financial assets (debt) and statement of cash flows for the year that ended (2014-15). Widman summed up the results of that audit.

“It’s a yearly process that we go through,” said Teresa Rezansoff, SD51 board chair. “They come in and look and make sure everything we have done is ac-curate. We had a clean audit. We’ve never not had a clean audit, I’m proud to say.”

Rezansoff praised the work of Jeanette Hanlon, secretary-treasurer for SD51, and district staff.

In the statement of operations (year ended June 30), SD51 has an actual to-tal revenue of $17,044,184. Most of that comes from provincial grants from the Ministry of Education, $15,670,621. The total expenses for SD51 are $17,193,609 of which instruction is the biggest at $12,186,109. In the sched-ule of operating operations, SD51 had an actual operat-ing surplus of $1,727,291 at the end of the year.

The accumulated sur-plus from operations at the beginning of the year was $10,569,119. At the end of the year, the accumulated surplus was $10,419,694.

The statement of financial position (as of June 30) for SD51 stated that the total financial assets were $4,059,872. The to-tal liabilities were $14,313,719. The net fi-nancial assets (debt) is ($10,253,847). The total non-financial assets is $20,673,541.

The accumulated surplus is $10,419,694.Community Literacy Plan

Sheila Dobie, commu-nity literacy coordinator of Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy (CBAL), gave an enthusiastic presentation about the Community Lit-eracy Plan for the Bound-ary.

She talked about high-lights from the previous year and talked about the plan for the coming year. Dobie also talked about the upcoming Reach a Reader program, which goes this year on Oct. 7.

Reach a Reader is a pro-gram where local volun-teers man tables outside Overwaitea and Buy-Low Foods handing out the Gazette, asking for donations towards literacy pro-grams, and handing out information re-garding literacy. Superintendent report

Kevin Argue, SD51 superintendent, gave his month-end report at the board

meeting. Argue said there were 46 teacher positions posted. There are 12 new teachers to SD51 with four positions still to be filled.

Argue said the four goals for the achievement contract for SD51 for 2014-15 were:

1. To embed the inquiry process into teaching and learning throughout the dis-trict;

2. To improve student achievement in reading;

3. To increase students ac-cess and use of technology

to deepen learning and authentically com-municate their knowledge; and,

4. To improve the positive, social emo-tional connectedness of our students to their school experience through school ini-tiatives supported by our health promot-ing schools coordinator.

Secretary Treasurer reportJeanette Hanlon, secretary-treasurer for

SD51, gave a report which included main-tenance projects completed over the sum-mer months.

These include boiler upgrade, hoist inspections, renovated bathroom in boys change room and new paint on lockers and hallways at Grand Forks Secondary.

Other highlights included: Perley El-ementary received new carpet in music portable and relocated Aboriginal Educa-tion room to Perley Playstation and ex-panded the Special Education room; Hut-ton Elementary removed the old music and storage portables and relocated the newer portable replaced in the technology fire in 2011 and carpeted and set up the interior of the moved portable for the mu-sic room; and at Christina Lake, workers renovated the nutrition room and created a health room and replaced flooring in the change rooms.Support for those affected by the Rock Creek fire

Norm Sabourin, Boundary District Teachers’ Association (BDTA) president, suggested during comment period that the board discuss helping out those affect-ed by the Rock Creek fire, and, in particu-lar, those with students.

In all there were seven students affected from five different families. Sabourin also said there was a retired school teacher and a current CUPE member who lost their homes to the fire.

Sabourin said they were able to “pass the hat” for fire relief and raise $2,400 at the BCTF summer conference.

“That money will be sent to the CIBC account for the Kettle River Lion’s Club,” he said. “We’re putting the word out to anyone to help.”

Sabourin said there is also an account set up through the RDKB at the Heritage Credit Union in Greenwood for donations.

“We’re (BDTA) still looking at other options for how we can help,” he said. “We want the money distributed where it needs to be distributed.”

Rezansoff said the board is waiting for the assessment by the Rock Creek/West-bridge Fire Needs Committee before fur-ther determining what can be done.

“There are a lot of finer details being looked at,” she said.

Rezansoff said they were very im-pressed by the job everyone in the com-munity from caring and supporting each other, the communications and everything else.

“It was an amazing example of what our community can do,” she said.

Daily Physical Activity for ChildrenPhysical activity is good for your child’s health now and in the future. Benefi ts of physical activity include: strong bones and muscles, healthy heart, lungs and arteries, improved coordination, balance, posture and fl exibility, maintaining a healthy weight, reduced risk of chronic disease such as heart disease, cancer and type-2 diabetes and later in life improved learning and attention.

Physical activity isn’t necessarily ‘exercise’. Your child doesn’t have to play an organized sport or do push-ups to benefi t. Opportunities for free outdoor play are just as important and valuable. It does help, though, if you make daily plans for when and where your child can be active.

Canadian Physical Activity GuidelinesCanadian guidelines recommend that children aged:0 - 1 years should be active several times throughout the day, such as fl oor play1 - 4 years should be physically active for at least 180 minutes each day, with activity spread across the day5 - 17 years should accumulate at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity each day. Moderate-intensity physical activity – should be able to walk and talk, but not sing all that well; would be about a 5 or 6 on a scale of 10. Vigorous-intensity physical activity – should not be able to carry on a conversation, should be huffi ng and puffi ng and breaking a sweat; would be about a 7 or 8 on a scale of 10.

Staff at School District 51 (and throughout the province) are preparing for a new student in-formation system called MyEd-ucationBC (MyEdBC). Starting this year, MyEdBC has replaced the previous system known as BCESIS.

“It’s completely widespread across the province,” said Kevin Argue, School District 51 (SD51) superintendent. “All schools are now using it. It’s called a com-mon information system. It’s how we organize all the student information in the schools. It’s how we do attendance on a daily basis; it’s how we prepare report cards.”

Argue said staff has been training on using the new sys-tem. “Shaun Lockhart (principal at Christina Lake Elementary School) is our lead on this,” said Argue. “He has done training

with all secretaries, councillors and, at this time, all high school teachers on attendance process-es. In the coming weeks we’ll have training with our elementa-ry teachers on report card mod-ules and our high school teach-ers on mark systems and report cards as well.”

Argue said the training has gone well and everyone is very happy with the program. “Its functionality in terms of speed has had some bugs,” he said. “They’re looking at it to fi gure out why it’s slowing down so it can become more effi cient and effective.”

Argue said that a couple of weeks ago during training the system was very fast but now that school is back and everyone is logged on, it is slowing right down.

“Now that the whole prov-ince is on it it’s got some speed issues,” he said. “They’re look-ing into it.”

Teresa Rezansoff, SD51 board chair, said they are impressed for what they have heard about the new MyEdBC system.

“We’re phasing it in,” said Re-zansoff. “There will be some get-ting used to the system. I haven’t heard a lot of bad stuff about it like we did with BCESIS.”

Rezansoff said MyEdBC will much more interactive for par-ents.

“Parents will be very happy to be able to have the access they’ll have to see things that are going on with their child (at school),” she said.

“Parents will have their own portal they can access. It’s meant to deliver a lot of stuff. But they’re being careful with how they deliver it. They don’t want to promise too much at once but the capacity is supposed to be much greater and more in keep-ing with what we’re trying to do with our education system than BCESIS was.”

Norm Sabourin, Boundary District Teachers’ Association president, said he is concerned with the amount of extra work-load that teachers will have to face in order to adapt to the new system.

“The old system, when it came in caused a large number of headaches with secretaries, administrators and teachers es-pecially,” said Sabourin. “It’ll (MyEdBC) come with a new report card format; it’ll have glitches.”

Sabourin said there were plenty of glitches when the pre-vious system, BCESIS, started out. “What happened with the old system is that teachers had to log online to do their reports on the system,” he said. “When you’ve got 40,000 teachers across the province all logging on in the same week, the system crashes. That was the old system. We’re crossing our fi ngers that that doesn’t happen again.”

Sabourin said that he expects the system will take some time and training to get teachers and other staff up to par.

“The fact that it’s a new for-mat, so just accessing the pro-gram itself—it’s new, it’s dif-ferent—if there isn’t proper training time given it will cause a lot of grief and a lot of stress and a ton of time that teachers can’t afford to give up when they’re simply trying to teach,” he said. “So there are worries about that. Time and support is crucial.”

Sabourin said that they are worried that it will be handed over to teachers to “fi gure out” on their own.

“That would be so unfair con-sidering all the other responsi-bilities that teachers have,” he said. “We feel incumbent upon the district to provide actual training time and resources not simply rely on teachers to vol-unteer more and more of their time.”

Committee meets to assess needs The Rock Creek/West-

bridge Fire Needs Committee has been meeting multiple times per week in order to de-termine the best course of ac-tion in helping those directly affected by the fire.

First priority has been to make sure residentsʼ immedi-ate basic needs are met (food, shelter, water, and clothing). Next, the focus has been on finding solutions to what it will take to get through the coming winter (such as fire-wood).

Thirdly, the committee is working to determine those in most need of assistance in helping rebuild their homes.

Beneficiary criteria has been established in order to

guide the committee. To re-ceive assistance, oneʼs needs must be a direct result of the fire. On the question of in-surance, only those under-insured or uninsured will be able to receive assistance (those who had their home insured may qualify for as-sistance in regards to other losses that were not insured). Primary residences will be considered before seasonal or income properties. Con-sideration will be given when oneʼs livelihood was affected.

Consideration will be given to those on a fixed or low income. Specific vulner-abilities will also be evaluated (such as age, health, family needs, etc.).

A large part of the task so far has been to coordinate the efforts being made. The

hope is to not double up with anotherʼs generosity and to make sure no one is over-looked.

In order for this to happen, the committee is working to be aware of individual needs, which organizations are will-ing and able to assist (such as Mennonite Disaster Service, Christian Disaster Service, Red Cross, and Habitat for Humanity), and other local efforts. In order for this to be most effective, the committee is asking other groups/funds set up to communicate with them as partners. Coordina-tion of debris removal is also being worked on.

Based upon the criteria, the committee has been work-ing to prioritize the needs. Those who have lost homes and are considered primary

candidates for assistance are being notified as to funds and services available to them.

Any donations made to the Rock Creek/Westbridge Fire Needs Committee will be issued a tax deductible re-ceipt. You can donate either by stopping by the Green-wood branch of the Heritage Credit Union or by mailing your donation to Regional District of Kootenay Bound-ary, 202 - 843 Rossland Ave., Trail, B.C., V1R 4S8.

While the RDKB has been generous to donate the han-dling of funds and receipting, it is the local committee that determines where and how the funds are spent.

If you have any needs or questions, feel free to contact Vicki Gee at 250 446 2042 or [email protected].

New cooperative begins with pilot project

A new regional coopera-tive has begun operations with a pilot project helping local farmers get their goods to a broader range of mar-kets.

The Kootenay and Bound-ary Food Producers Coop (KBFPC) began its market brokerage and distribution pilot in July with their new coordinator, Susan War-ren. They are working with farmers in the Salmo and Fruitvale areas to help find

markets and distribute their products to those markets over the course of the sum-mer. Warren determines what products are available from which farmers on a weekly basis, and coordinates with local retailers and a local shipper to get sustainably grown veggies into more hands. Kootenay Market, Ferraro Foods and Kootenay Bakery Coop are just some of the retailers now ordering from the Producer’s Coop.

“The goal of this pilot,” Warren said, “is to allow farmers to remain on their

farms growing food and rais-ing animals, while reducing their costs by working coop-eratively.”

The KBFPC plans to offer other much needed services to its members, just at a time when food prices and uncer-tainty of supply are becom-ing national issues.

Kim Charlesworth, a founding member, said, “Our research shows long-term winter storage, a labour pool, and a value-added process-ing facility are all critically needed in the area.”

Mark your calendars to

celebrate! The KBFPC is host-ing a Local Producers Fall Event with an open house, followed by a good old-fash-ioned barn dance Oct. 17 at the Taghum Hall near Nel-son. The event is to celebrate their official launch and pro-vide information to anyone interested in membership.

The KBFPC is actively re-cruiting new members from Grand Forks to Creston and north to Naksup and Ar-genta. Contact [email protected] for information, or visit our web-site at kbfpc.ca.

Last week’s puzzle solved

Joke of the WeeK:Patient: “I have spent 80% of my life’s savings on doctors.” Doctor: “Why didn’t you come to me earlier?”

“We’re dealing with more than one issue here,” said Lawrence. “We have numerous griev-ances that we’ve been working on for going on six months. The reason we’re here tonight (Monday) is for an action our CAO (Doug Allin) informed of us last week, which is they are removing three full-time positions from the outside works which is in direct contravention of the collective agree-ment between the city and the CUPE local.”

Lawrence said the three positions outlined in the letter were: parks maintenance 3, water and sewer operator 2, and one that is currently vacant but the union is grieving.

Lawrence himself is a water and sewer opera-tor 2 and believes his job could be cut. The vacant position is for public works foreman, which was left vacant after David Reid moved up to man-agement (manager of operations).

“There’s only one other and he has 10 years seniority on me,” said Lawrence. ‘I’m not sure how it could be him.”

Lawrence said the union didn’t want to have to protest but the city forced their hand.

“We didn’t want to go this route,” he said. “We tried through the grievance pro-cess to fix these issues first. We were called in on Sept. 10 and went through a 48-min-ute PowerPoint presentation on asset man-agement. Within that, it was explained that council had mandated our CAO to come up with a balanced and fair plan and part of that balanced and fair plan was reducing full-time positions by three.”

“We thought we should show solidarity by being at the (regular council) meeting tonight,” he said. “That this is wrong.”

Lawrence said the union is currently review-ing their options before proceeding.

“We all love our jobs. We want to perform our duties and respect our positions; however, we perceive this as eating away at the union and we’re all union members,” he said. “The reason we’re here tonight is for support. We see this as a possible opening of a door or a precedent setting thing if we don’t stand up to it.”

The press release from the city stated that an asset management investment plan was devel-oped that identified the significant financial gaps that exist within the organization, while recog-nizing ways in which the financial sustainability could be significantly improved without over burdening taxpayers.

“The asset management plan is the most fis-cally responsible strategy for the city that has been discussed by council to date,” said Mayor Frank Konrad in the release. “I think that it is a very balanced approach to achieving the finan-cial sustainability of the organization without hitting taxpayers where it hurts, keeping the city affordable for residents and businesses.”

The press release went on to state that there are cash flow challenges over the next 20 years to fund the previously planned improvements, meaning that those plans are not financially sustainable. They city currently faces an annual deficit of $3.85 million and has an infrastructure backlog of $32 million.

On Tuesday, Konrad said in a statement that council will have to approve of any job cuts, tax and rate increases, and all the other recommen-dations.

He said the plan has been in the works for a number of years and is not something they just came up with on a whim.

“In 2011, the council at the time started look-ing at getting their business in order to ensure they could fund the replacement of assets,” said

Konrad. “The city looked at borrowing and is now considering using savings to replace assets, alleviating some of the burden on the taxpayers.”

Konrad said the council then really focused on asset management because they recognized that the city has an infrastructure problem due to the age of the city.

In 2012, there was a referendum in the city to borrow money for multiple infrastructure proj-ects.

Only one (68th Avenue) ended up being done and that was only surface work to add a few more years to the life of the road.

Sarah Winton, deputy corporate officer/com-muncations, told the Gazette Tuesday that if the city borrowed money for projects such as infra-structure it would mean a significant tax increase for taxpayers.

“With this asset management financial plan, council is looking at a more balanced approach,” she said. “Rather than borrowing money and

only being able to fix some of the infrastructure and still not have enough money for future re-pairs or replacement—this plan looks at how can we put the money away so we can actually re-pair and replace on an as-needed basis. As well as have money in reserve for future needs.”

Winton said the information on the asset man-agement plan will be discussed at the Committee of the Whole meeting on Oct. 13.

Council must decide on all issues before the final outcomes are in the 2016 financial plan.

“The positions identified in the plan will be reviewed by council,” said Winton. “Changes oc-cur in local government regularly.”

Winton said there was a meeting on Thurs-day for everyone in the organization and that there would be a balanced approach as direct-ed by council and in accordance with the asset management plan to cost save and to also look at different ways of generating revenue for the organization.

As for the potential job losses, the city would not confirm anything.

“The city is evaluating all positions within the organization in order to better balance the servic-es and levels of service that are provided to an af-fordable rate,” said Winton. “The idea is to avoid downloading the financial burden onto the tax-payers and to future generations of taxpayers.”

Winton said staff will begin to implement the options when they are directed to by council.

Winton said there could be alternatives to the job losses brought to the table. “The administra-tive staff has extended an invitation to the union to sit down and have a conversation about alter-natives,” she said.

Winton said the plan has come forward at this time so council and staff have time to discuss all the issues before the budget process begins.

“In the fall we always head into the budget process and we start having these conversations with council,” she said. “The budgeting process is a long one. It takes at least a half a year to get it all firmed.”

City workers upset Continued from page A1

Lobster Fest raises over $28,000Lobster Fest was another sellout in its second

year. Over 200 people feasted on fresh Atlan-tic lobster with salad and corn of the cob, and danced the night away to the musical stylings of Renegade from Trail.

The event was put on by the Grand Forks Ro-tary Club and was a fundraiser for the children’s

spray park, which has already began to be built in City Park.

Lobster Fest took place Saturday night at the Christina Lake Community Hall and also fea-tured a silent auction and plenty of socializing.

“Lobster Fest 2015 was a big success,” said club president Murray Knox. “We sold out be-forehand and had over 220 people who enjoyed fresh lobster flown in by air.”

The event raised over $28,000 from the ticket sales, bar, silent auction and WestJet raffle.

Gordon Nichols and Shannon Profili, co-chairs of the Lobster Fest committee, agreed that it was a wonderful event for the community.

“It was great fun,” said Nichols. “We are so thankful to people for supporting this event. We raised more than enough money to fully pay for the children’s spray park.”

“This is great news to finally have the spray park paid for,” added Profili. “We expect it to be done by the end of October and ready to use by next spring.”

Winning the raffle for two tickets anywhere WestJet flies was Letha Leber, a member of Grand Forks Fire/Rescue, who was thrilled to win the prize, which was valued at almost $3,000.


Lobster Fest was a lot of fun on Saturday night at the Christina Lake Community Hall with more than 200 people digging in on fresh Atlantic lob-ster. The event was catered by the Wooden Spoon, al-though the lobster was cooked by Rotarians, and was served by local students.

I don’t know if you’ve heard, but I made quite a name for myself up in the Cariboo. I cashed in from 100 Mile House to Prince George – striking gold!

But my time there ended quickly. Word sure gets around in small towns! I needed to fi nd new ground. Wine country sounded nice this time of year, I thought. So I’m heading south. Fruit, wine, and a bushel of unsuspecting buyers. And, I could do some deals on the way!

My Walt’s Wheels website

was still up and running. But, I needed to spice it up. I pulled some professional photos from real dealer websites, along with

all the attached in-formation.

Licensed dealers have to be honest in their advertising and include their d e a l e r n u m b e r. Sometimes I want a buyer to think I was a dealer. Other

times, I pretend to be a neigh-bor selling my own car. But of course, either way, I off er pric-es that are too good to be true to get attention.

What if this isn’t enough? I thought. I didn’t hesitate. In big red lettering, I said it was a “Blowout Sale! Everything Must Go!” I’ll just tell the callers I was moving and needed to get rid of my entire inventory.

When they called with a car in mind from the website, I’d just tell them it’s been sold. And then I’d talk up what I

actually had in stock. Older, barely working sedans! But I’d have a low price and I’d off er to meet them wherever they wanted. A perfect combination for students attending the lo-cal colleges.

And guess what, students were the perfect prey! Th eir mistake? Th ey only cared about price. Most didn’t know to ask

for a vehicle history report, like Carproof, or how to veri-fy my documents. Show them a cheap price and… sold! Th ey were too trusting and were my easiest sales ever. Th ey had no clue that they were giving up the many protections of buying from a licensed dealer.

Once again, I hit pay dirt! My advertising lies brought

many calls. Some caught on to my bait and switch system. But, as always, there were enough buyers who fell for my tricks. And, when the cars stop running – I’ll be gone.

However, I’ve learned I can stay a little longer if I keep moving. Where’s a good place to get some inventory? I thought.

miles!” He means, “I

Th e Vehicle Sales Authori-ty (VSA) oversees the licensed motor dealer industry in British Columbia. Th e industry rep-resents 430,000 transactions, or $10 billion in regulated ve-hicle sales, each year. Despite more than 1,300 consumer enquiries, nearly 800 dealer inspections and ongoing ad-vertising monitoring, a typical 12 month period generates the following compliance activities:

❚ Voluntary acknowledgement and action by 15 to 20 dealers that errors were made during the representation and sale of vehicles, as documented in signed undertakings

❚ Up to fi ve dealers facing hear-ings before the Registrar of Motor Dealers for allegations of deceptive business practices

❚ 500 consumer-initiated in-vestigations, resulting in the re-turn of $1 million to consumers

❚ And, as a result of licensing

reviews, three to fi ve salesper-son licences will be denied, one or two will be suspended and others will be issued with con-ditions based on prior conduct.

Licensing and business prac-tice decisions of the Registrar were also recently upheld by the BC Supreme Court, following applications for judicial review.

Th e licensed vehicle sales industry in BC includes over 1,400 licensed RV, motorcycle and auto dealers that employ over 7,000 licensed salespeople. In the last 12 months, 1,600 new salespeople and 100 new dealers were certifi ed and li-censed. Consumer awareness activities, like the Watch out for Walt! campaign, are ongoing.

Consumer information, com-plete compliance details and the 2015 VSA Annual Report, which includes a full summary of VSA activities for the last three years, can be found at vehiclesalesauthority.com.

Curbers may get junk cars and sell them from parking lots while posing as private sellers. They advertise through local newspapers and online ads. They may not disclose the vehicle history to the buyer, hiding serious accident

damage or even a rolled back odometer. Licensed dealers are required by law to sell safe, lien-free vehicles and disclose vehicle histories. If you buy from Walt, you have none of the protections of buying from a licensed dealer.

Curbers are individuals and businesses selling vehicles for profit without a licence

At a minimum, get a CarProof Vehicle History Report before you buy

CURBERS SELL VEHICLES THAT MAY BE UNSAFE OR STOLEN!

The Habitat for Humanity Re-Store in Grand Forks has come a long way after one year. The busi-ness opened out on 136 Sagamore Road in September 2014 with the thought that it would be a tempo-

rary location before moving into the MAAP (multi-agency accom-modation project) building on Riverside Drive.

When the lease at Riverside wasn’t renewed, Habitat pulled out of the MAAP project and has been at Sagamore ever since.

The ReStore marked their first

year anniversary this week.“When we first moved into the

location we started with a large empty room,” said manager Eric Anderson. “We built shelving outdoors, displayed product on tables or just put it on the floor. Today with proper shelving and many other upgrades, it is a lot

more organized and looks just like any other regular retail outlet.”

Anderson said business has been good from the start and has continued to pick up as more peo-ple learn about the ReStore and its concept.

ReStores began in 1991 with the first one in Winnipeg.

“ReStores are environmentally friendly retail outlets operated by Habitat for Humanity, selling

donated building materials and renovation products,” said Ander-son. “Everything sold at a ReStore is donated either by individuals or corporate donors. The end re-sult is that ReStores can offer good new and used products at extraor-dinary savings to the public.”

The primary objective of a ReStore is to raise money for the construction of new homes for low income families through

Habitat for Humanity. So far, Habitat for Hu-manity Southeast BC (HFHSBC) has build 20 homes throughout the Kootenays, including seven in the Boundary.

Anderson said that ReStores are designed to be volunteer run, with staff available to assist as needed. “Having a ReStore run by the peo-ple it serves ensures that each ReStore is fully in tune with the commu-nity it serves,” he said. “A secondary benefit is that we are able to redi-rect material from land-fills. ReStores across Canada keep thousands of tonnes out of landfills every year.”

The ReStore in Grand Forks is the only one in the entire southeast B.C. and Anderson said it is a great drawing card for the city.

“People across Can-ada recognize the Re-Store brand and will go out of their way to visit one,” he said.

He said the store was built here on the initia-tive of the local Habitat for Humanity affiliate which has received mul-tiple national awards for the number of homes it has built per capita.

Anderson said they hope to improve ef-ficiency at the store in the future by acquir-ing equipment such as a forklift and a truck to increase their ability to manage pickups and deliveries.

HFHSEBC are hop-ing to find a permanent solution for affordable rent for the ReStore lo-cation.

“The more overhead we incur the less re-sources we have to di-rect to our core mission to build homes for low income families,” said Bob Huff, executive di-rector for HFHSEBC. “We have researched other opportunities in Grand Forks and have had expressions of in-terest from other areas that would like a Re-Store. It is not unusual for an affiliate to have more than one ReStore but the bottom line for us is that the support from the community is the determining factor.”

For more informa-tion visit the store or call them at 250-442-2720.

September is Literacy Month!During Literacy Month the

Columbia Basin Alliance for Lit-eracy – Boundary (CBAL) is par-ticipating in Decoda Literacy Solutions’ month-long literacy awareness campaign called Literacy is Life.

CBAL will be publishing a series of stories submitted from the community—stories about an experience with wild animals. CBAL and WildSafeBC have partnered in this writ-ing project, which will see a new story published each week for the month of September.

It’s not too late. Tell us a story about how you have en-joyed wild animals in the wild, keeping them wild!

For more information contact Sheila Dobie, com-munity literacy coordinator, at [email protected].

There is a Bear in the Orchard! In the morning I go out and gather the wind falls, but

there are so many, I cannot keep up. One morning I saw that I had help overnight, seeing

one deposit after another. Oh my! These deposits were very very big. They are called scats for animals. And it is a wonder that the bear is absorbing any nutrients when we see such scats!

But my heart sank—as it was clear that a big black bear was visiting the orchard and helping himself to windfalls.

Nightly the bear returns, but he seems respectful; no fences torn down, no trees ripped apart. I feel worried about this bear, wondering how hungry he must be after the summer we’ve just had. I have heard that the bears are coming closer into the valleys because the berries high in the mountains are so scarce.

Is the fruit from the orchard a help? Will he become so use to people that he becomes a danger?

Each morning after his nightly feast this beautiful animal slips away and lumbers down the road—off to the next place. I watch him go with a blessing and a prayer, that his forays will continue to be brief and unthreatening so that he can continue safely to his winter sleeping place.

Rotary donates to urology departmentThe Grand Forks Rotary Club, repre-sented by (Left) Murray Knox, president, and Wayne Christensen, former presi-dent, donated $1,000 to the Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital (KBRH), represented by Lisa Pasin of the KBRH Foundation.The money will go towards the urology department. The urology department is acquiring several new pieces of equip-ment and just added a new urologist, Dr. Robinson. Craig Lindsay photo

Thumbs up to the young guys at OK Tire for taking the time each month during the past two summers, to check my motor-cycle tires and add air as needed—you’ve been wonderful and have kept me safe on the roads.

Two thumbs up to the mechanics at Kooteney Car Care ga-rage. You guys are great!

Hunger Matters, and it matters most to those who are hungry. Sept. 21 – 25 is Hunger Aware-ness Week, an opportu-nity to remind everyone to think about hunger. To think about the people in our community who are hungry. I would like to share with you a poem I wrote several years ago about those people.

The Face of Hunger in the BoundaryThe face of hunger in the Boundary is

young• a teenage couple with a baby, striv-

ing to finish high school• an eight-year-old with a growling

tummy

The face of hunger in the Boundary is elderly

• pensioners raising grandchildren• single seniors living on OAP

The face of hunger in the Boundary is in the middle

• 20, 30, 40 & 50 year olds who can’t find work or are trying to make a life and raise a family with minimum wage or part-time employment

Hunger visits all ages.

The face of hunger in the Boundary is healthy

• but unable to find work due to

under-education or inexperience

The face of hunger in the Boundary is healthy

• except for a disabil-ity that prevents them from working

The face of hunger in the Boundary could be healthy, but it has to choose between medications and food

The face of hunger in the Boundary is often unhealthy due to:

• poor nutrition• inadequate housing• inability to properly heat their home

or dress for the weather

The face of hunger in the Boundary is often depressed and feels hopeless

Hunger loves the vulnerable.

The face of hunger in the Boundary owns their own home

• but may be unable to heat it• or lives in fear of losing it due to in-

ability to pay the mortgage or taxes

The face of hunger in the Boundary rents their home, but it’s often

• undersized & overcrowded• poorly heated or insulated• priced higher than they can afford• in poor or even unsafe condition

The face of hunger in the Boundary is

homeless and sleeps• on friends’ couches• or in a car• or on the floor of someone’s garage• or in a tentThe face of hunger in the Boundary

can be found in Christina Lake or Bea-verdell, Grand Forks, Midway, Green-wood and all the rural areas surrounding and between them.Hunger lives everywhere.

The face of hunger in the Boundary comes in all hair colours and skin tones. It

comes in all ethnicities. Hunger doesn’t discriminate.

The face of hunger in the Boundary is everywhere. Look around you, at your and your children’s friends, your neigh-bours or co-workers. There’s a strong probability that one or more of them has a temporary or ongoing issue with hunger.

The Boundary Community Food Bank provides food to approximately 300 peo-ple (30 per cent of them children) each month! Please—help us help them.

Sports

After a one-season sabbatical, fall soccer is returning to the area. Jeff Olsen, executive director of the Boundary Youth Soccer Asso-ciation (BYSA), said there were a number of reasons why fall soc-cer didn’t run last fall but he said they have good numbers this year and are all ready to go.

“For fall we have a good turn-out of kids,” said Olsen, “espe-cially considering how much oth-er stuff is going on like hockey. The West Boundary kids do 4H and other things. So we’ve got lots of kids.”

The league starts this Sunday at 9 a.m. until 12 noon at both Grand Forks Secondary School (GFSS) and at Christina Lake at the elementary school. Olsen said there are 135 kids registered for the league not including Kick-s4Kids, which could be as high as 50.

Players can still register through the league website at boundaryyouthsoccer.com.

There are 16 teams playing in Under 7, Under 9, Under 11, Un-der 13 and Under 16. There is also a Kicks4Kids program for chil-dren aged 2-4 in both communi-ties.

Unfortunately, this year BYSA is limited to the East Boundary (Grand Forks and Christina Lake) due to the lack of participants in the west end.

“West Boundary has no teams because they’re all too busy,” said Olsen. “We do, however, have a Kicks4Kids program running in Midway on Fridays. That’s on our website.”

The fall season, which is really short, wraps up on Oct. 4 with a final wrap-up tournament at GFSS.

Olsen said the focus of the league is to get kids excited about soccer and keep them playing.

“You get to play with your friends,” he said. “It’s athletic as well and healthy. It’s a positive choice to make in life. You’re not texting if you’re playing soccer.”

Olsen added that soccer is great for teaching kids coordina-tion and teamwork.

“The big thing we’re about is long-term player development,” he said. “Do we care if kids go off into a AAA gold cup league? That’s not our goal. We want peo-ple to still be playing sports at 25, 30, 40 years of age. It’s a healthy direction in life.”

Olsen said they’re already see-ing kids who played in the league who’ve aged out of the program

and are now coming back and contributing by refereeing and coaching. “It’s great to see they’re interested enough to stick with it,” he said. “They’re giving back

and getting back.”Olsen said the league is very

appreciative of the great support they’ve gotten from the commu-nity. “We’ve had huge support

from the community, from the schools, from the businesses,” he said. “We can never thank all those people enough. All that help makes this program work.”

The Grand Forks Figure Skat-ing Club is back on the ice for another year of skating. Return-ing for his second year as head coach is Ray Naismith, who was pleased with the improvement of all the skaters last year.

“We’re hoping to increase our membership this year,” said Naismith. “We established a base last year and we’re hoping to progress from there. That’s what I’m hoping for. It’s quite amazing the enthusiasm, en-ergy and excitement those kids had.”

Naismith said the skaters last year were very motivated and competed very well.

“It was nice to see how much they enjoyed skating and how prepared they were,” he said.

“It’s quite awesome. I was quite taken aback.”

The club began registration and practice for this season on Monday at Jack Goddard Me-morial (Grand Forks) Arena.

Naismith said the club would once again participate in a num-ber of competitions throughout the year.

“It’s a short season so that limits our options,” he said, “and there’s travel involved and that limits us as well.”

Naismith said they would like to enter the Rossland com-petition in January once again. He is also hoping to organize a couple of tests in town.

“I have to see how the skat-ers progress before I know what tests they can try,” he said. “It’s part of the Skate Canada test structure.”

Last year, the club had more

than 30 members with four skat-ers in the junior academy, which is for skaters who have graduat-ed from the CANSkate program and are working towards their fi rst preliminary test; seven skaters at the intermediate and senior level, which are skaters who have at least one prelimi-nary test and are working on tests for the STARSkate pro-gram. The club had 21 skaters in the CANSkate including 13 in stages one to three and eight in stages three to six of which six have moved up to the junior academy.

The competitive dates sched-uled for the club for this season are: Jan. 15-17 East Kootenay Invitational, Invermere, B.C.; Feb. 12-14 Kootenay Regional Championships, Fruitvale, B.C.; March 4-6 Super Series STAR-Skate fi nal, Kelowna, B.C.

Lillian Lynne In Loving Memory

It is with such sadness we an-nounce the passing of Lillian Lynne Semenoff on Sept. 3, 2015 in Grand Forks, B.C. at the age of 81. Lynne was born on March 13, 1934 in Verigin, Sask.

She is predeceased by her parents Peter and Anne Chernoff, husband George, brother Fred Chernoff, sisters inlaw Elizabeth Chernoff, Dorothy Chernoff; brother inlaw John Faminoff and nephew Steve Chern-off. She is lovingly survived by her sons Gerald (Lori) Semenoff, Jack (Gerry) Semenoff; grandchildren Stacey (Michael) Cassidy, Nicole Semenoff, Annalise, Kristina and Alex; great grandaughter Annastasia Cassidy; brother Peter Chernoff; sisters Mabel Faminoff, Anne (Nick) Negrieff and many nieces and nephews.

Lynne was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother who devoted her life to caring for her family. Her life’s passion was gardening. In her garden was where you would always fi nd her. She grew beautiful fl owers and an abundance of vegeta-bles and fruit which she lovingly shared with family and friends. Lynne will be so missed and will forever remain in our hearts.

A funeral service was held on Tues., Sept. 8, 2015 at 10 a.m. at Grand Forks Funeral Home. Interment at Sion Cemetery. We would like to thank Lynne’s doctor, nurses and care aids for taking care of Lynne. A special thank you to Dana Novotny for all you did for Lynne, your kindness will always be remembered. Thank you so much to our families and friends for the gifts of food and fl owers and all your love and support.

Let me leave you the memoryof how I loved you so.

Let me leave with you the gardenof seeds that I have sown.

Come into my garden,where I loved to wonder free.

Stop to smell the fl owersand remember me.

One man gathered enough support for the United Nations in 1981 to declare International Day of Peace.

On Sept. 21 the UN is joined by community groups globally to focus on establishing a world of peace, sustainable socio-econom-ic justice, development based in equality and respect for all hu-manity and the environment.

This year`s theme is “Partner-ships for Peace—Dignity for all. A day devoted to strengthening the ideals of peace, both within and among all nations and peo-ples. Let us stand with the mil-lions of people across the world who are suffering the devastat-ing impact of violence and con-flict and share ideas and plans for helping and supporting them in their time of dire need.”

The Boundary Peace Initiative partners annually with the USCC Work-ing Groups and the Kootenay Region United Nations Association for a gathering. This year a panel discussion will be offered on “How War Af-fects Climate Change and How Climate Change Affects Peace.”

These two topics in reality intertwine, so we’ll explore that link of how we, the people, can move the political and economic sectors to take seri-ously the impacts that our combined life styles have on climate change and how this impacts on peaceful co-existence.

The panel includes Graham Watt from the Kettle River Watershed Management Plan, a First Nations repre-sentative and a few other knowledgeable local people.

Join the Bound-ary Peace Initiative and its partners on Sunday, Sept. 20 at 2 p.m. at the Slavonic Senior Citizens Cen-tre on 72nd Avenue and Seventh Street. Admission will be by donation.

“It is when we speak out that positive change happens, said Peace Initiative mem-ber Laura Savinkoff. “Politicians and cor-porations locally and globally will change course to catch up with us. Your participation will send the vital mes-sage that we want a living, breathing and vital peace for, with and among the entire world.”
