Teck aims to ‘clear the air’ of fugitive dust BY TIMOTHY SCHAFER Times Staff
The Fugitive Dust Project has commenced. Although it sounds like an espionage mission, a new project at Teck Trail Operations is not covert. Intended to reduce the amount of stray particles of raw materials floating around on site and in the community, the project is an above-theboard attempt by the region’s largest employer to “clear the air” on its environmental act. By improving storage of raw “It will reduce materials, interthe amount of mediate process and fugitive dust on the materials recycles on site, property and also the project aims reduce levels that for a reduction in current dust would get into the emissions from community.” existing processes and infrastrucRICHARD DEANE ture, said Richard Deane, Teck’s energy and public affairs manager. That means a cleaner environment on the work site as well as in the Greater Trail region, he noted. “We’re hoping to ultimately see further improvement in terms of dusting levels and metal levels in the environment,” Deane said. “It will reduce the amount of fugitive dust on the property and also reduce the levels that would get into the community.” The Fugitive Dust Project was made public in May at a Trail Health and Environment Committee meeting at City Hall. Teck officials told a packed house in that presentation that the issue of fugitive dust was identified through the company’s continual monitoring of metal of levels in the community and on the job site. It was found that existing piles of material and how it was handled created a further source of metal emissions coming off the site and into the community, as opposed to emissions that would come from any of the site’s stacks. The dust project will focus on a few different areas, including covering any outdoor piles of material that are a risk and that aren’t currently covered, said Deane. “It will go after non-stack sources, dusting of materials that may contain metals that may come from uncovered piles, might come from open

Pools struggling with lack of lifeguards BY BREANNE MASSEY Times Staff
Courses have been cancelled and staff hours are climbing, as Rossland and Warfield’s swimming pools grapple with a lifeguard shortage. “This year was the first year where it was a real struggle to find enough staff,” said Lauren Bergen, head lifeguard at the Rossland pool. “But it has definitely been a struggle to keep most of our programs.” As a result, some classes and extra activities—like floating movie nights—have been cancelled. Some of the lifeguards have been commuting between Rossland and Warfield so that the communities can continue to receive swimming lessons and use the pool. In fact, a lack of applicants this summer forced the City of Rossland to issue a province-wide call for

applicants. “Everybody is already at maximum hours so it’s hard to do extra things that would set the Rossland pool apart,” Bergen said. “We’re sharing an instructor for camps because a lot of people like to do lessons up here because they don’t go to Trail as much.” But Robin Hethey, the City of Rossland’s recreation programmer, is looking for a solution. “We’ve introduced some new positions,” Hethey said. “It’s sort of like being a cashier, but you get experience doing pool maintenance and helping out with some of the lessons. We’re hoping that this program will motivate some of the kids.” This year the City of Rossland hired five employees for part-time cashier positions in an attempt to motivate them to complete courses in

lifeguard training. Another perk Hethey mentioned is that students in B.C. may use their lifeguard training towards high school graduation, and the certifications are transferable throughout Canada. “Depending on the applicant’s age, it can take four or five years to become qualified,” Hethey said. “And because we live in a mountain community, becoming a lifeguard is a long road—physically, mentally and financially.” Youth who continue to receive training for guarding
will gain as much as $5 more per hour when they move up to lifeguard or instructor positions. In Rossland, lifeguards earn $15 per hour and lifeguard/instructors earn $16.50 per hour, but in urban centres guards can earn roughly $25 per hour. “Hopefully these new positions will encourage them to continue training so that they can get a guard position, which means they get paid more and there are more hours. It’s a little bit of a reward for how far they come in their course and a bit of support to keep going and get the rest of these courses.” Alternatively the Trail Aquatic Centre has been “fortunate” this summer, and hadn’t had any difficulties hiring lifeguards this season, according to Victoria Gladue the aquatic coordinator.

REGIONAL Five-year-plan to be developed
FIREFIGHTERS MAKE DOUBLE DONATION
FROM PAGE 1 mixing and handling of materials that contain metals, and from transporting (trucking) of materials that contain metals around the property,” he stated. Over the last 15 years Teck has reduced metal emissions in the air by over 95 per cent, largely the result of implementing the lead furnace projects. Deane said the new project would take emission reductions one step further, and will dovetail into some existing projects, including bag house improvements—improvements to stack house emissions—wheel washing, road sweeping, road washing and dust suppression activities, all of which are now underway. The new aspect of the project includes identifying and mapping any other open sources of material—roads, buildings, material handling— and commencing feasibility studies for two buildings that house mixing of materials for lead smelter feed and materials for zinc process feed as well. A five-year plan—developed by Teck engineers, a consultant and outside engineers—will be developed after the studies are done that will set milestones and targets to achieve 2018 ambient metal targets. It will utilize some of the work done on how to manage fugitive dust by other operations around North America, including Vancouver Wharves concentrate unloading, Red Dog Mine in Alaska, and a lead zinc smelter in Torreón, Mexico. The feasibility portion of the multi-year project will be complete later this summer on material storage, and the feasibility of enclosures for the smelter recycle area and the roaster feed pad. “That will put us in a position of determining what potential costs will be, and determine if that is something we can proceed with,” said Deane.
NELSON
Politicians slam fisheries office closure BY GREG NESTEROFF Nelson Star
Local politicians are protesting the impending closure of Nelson’s federal Fisheries and Oceans office and the loss of its two staff biologists. Southern Interior MP Alex Atamanenko and Andy Shadrack, chair of the Association of Kootenay Boundary Local Governments, have both written the federal fisheries minister, asking for public consultation first. Shadrack says the Nelson field office was established when it became clear the government couldn’t meet its obligations from its regional headquarters in Vancouver, and while it originally had five people, it has since been reduced to two biologists and one support person. He noted Fisheries and Oceans Canada is the lead agency in developing a partnership on Kootenay Lake between First Nations, various provincial agencies and local government, and further, the Columbia River Treaty is subject to notice of renegotiation in 2014. “We therefore believe that the government would be remiss if it closed the Nelson office,” Shadrack told minister Keith Ashfield.

Crime unit presents June report to council BY TIMOTHY SCHAFER Times Staff
The month of June produced six incidents of note for the Trail Crime Reduction Unit, detailed in a recent report to city council. Motor vehicle prohibition, June 28 Trail Crime Reduction Unit (TCRU) members observed a vehicle pull up behind their unmarked police car on Rossland Avenue in Trail, recognizing the driver as being prohibited from operating a motor vehicle. The driver was issued an appearance notice for court and his vehicle was impounded for seven days as a result. A charge of driving while prohibited was recommended under the Motor Vehicle Act. Canada-wide parole warrant, June 28 TRCU members continued
– Greater Trail –
to comb the streets of Trail and Castlegar in an effort to track down a 26-year-old man wanted on a Canada-wide parole warrant. The man, who has a violent history, was believed to be involved in drug trafficking within the communities, had fled from police on June 15 when they attempted to arrest him. Possession of stolen property, June 27 Const. Orr executed an arrest of a 22-year-old woman in downtown Trail for an outstanding warrant of arrest for the possession of stolen prop-
erty. The woman was held in custody in Trail overnight and appeared in Rossland Provincial Court June 28. She was released from custody and issued a future court date. Peace bond application, June 20 Officers dealt with two highly agitated people on June 14. One of the two men had made veiled threats towards the officer and, as such, an application for a peace bond was made. A peace bond is not a criminal charge but rather an order made by the courts to restrict contact between individuals when a person fears for their safety, the safety of their property, or both. Possession of marijuana. June 14 TCRU members were conducting surveillance on an
unrelated matter when a traffic stop was initiated with a suspicious vehicle at the Nancy Greene Provincial Park. The two occupants of the vehicle were arrested under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act. TRCU members seized drug paraphernalia and a quantity of marijuana from the trunk. The two were released without charge because of the relatively small amount of marijuana seized. Trafficking MDMA, June 1 A 20-year-old woman was arrested by police for trafficking MDMA (ecstatsy). The woman was from Trail and had a warrant of arrest issued after selling MDMA capsules to undercover police officers in July, 2011. The woman was released from custody and issued a future court date.

Girl drowns in Skaha Lake Family questions lack of safety warnings BY KRISTI PATTON Penticton Western News
Family of a 12-year-old girl from Kamloops who is believed to have drown on Skaha Lake Sunday afternoon are numb and appalled at the lack of safety warnings at the popular swimming area. “It’s very dangerous and it’s shocking that it happened,” said a female who said she was sister of the girl who slipped under the water around 3 p.m. The female, who did not want her name used until all the family could be notified, was standing on the shore with some of the family well after the sun had set. Earlier they watched as the RCMP boat and search and rescue scoured the area the girl was last seen, just west of where the Okanagan river channel spills into Skaha Lake. “She was messing around with her cousins doing handstands and she just slipped on the sand and went under,” the female said. According to the family the 12-year-old girl had walked out to the yellow warning buoys and the water was very shallow. The female family member indicated to the Penticton Western News the water was maybe waist deep. She said it was only after the incident that she learned the drop off after the buoys was incredible steep. She said her sister had been sit-
ting on the shoulders of another family member and the duo were playing in the water when the family member’s footing slipped right at the drop off. “She slipped on the sand and went under water and then there was screaming of help my cousin is drowing. Instantly all the boats and people in the water were trying to help,” said one of the family members. “One woman nearby grabbed one of the girl’s hands and helped her but couldn’t reach (the 12-yearold).” As the sun started to go down around 8 p.m. the family was huddled on the beach, some lined the shore intently watching the rescue boats hoping for any sign of the girl’s body. The female family member said she wanted to thank the strangers who had brought them water and blankets while they were waiting on the shore for any sign of her sister. The family of the girl said the whole incident happened so quickly and they don’t understand why there wasn’t any warnings or even a log barrier that people can grab onto as a last resort at the buoys. “I think people should know about this because it is an outrage. It could have been any of the kids that were out here. “There is no adequate warning signs and I don’t understand why there isn’t, or why there isn’t a lifeguard here,” said the female family member.

Toddler survives three-storey fall BY KEVIN DIAKIW Surrey North Delta Leader
A toddler is fortunate to have escaped injury after falling from a third floor window on the weekend. Police say the two-year-old girl was playing in a room on the third floor of an apartment complex in the 12100-block 75A Avenue at about 2 p.m. on Saturday. Her mother went down to check some-
thing on the stove, and the toddler climbed some furniture to the window, where she leaned against the screen panel, which gave way. The girl tumbled out, landing in a bush, and was taken to hospital, where it was determined she hadn’t broken any bones or suffered any other serious injury. Police are reminding the pub-

It was a winter scene in a summer setting. The City of Armstrong was battered by a severe flash storm Friday. The storm brought wind, rain and hail, starting shortly after 7 p.m. and lasting anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour. Power was out in the Highland Park subdivision for more than six hours, and even longer for some residents of Spallumcheen. The storm caused flood and other damage to a number of homes throughout the city.
WEST KELOWNA
Residents on alert after fire jumps guard THE KELOWNA CAPITAL NEWS A wildfire in West Kelowna has prompted an evacuation alert. An evacuation alert was issued Monday morning for close to 50 property residents in the Wilson Landing area. A number of roads in the region were also closed Monday morning as the Wilson Landing forest fire remains only 20 per cent contained. Wildfire Management Branch fire fighters have been working overnight to re-establish containment lines on the
Wilson’s Landing wildfire. The fire is now estimated at 30 hectares in size. Strong down slope winds, aggressive fire behaviour and unsafe terrain hampered fire fighting efforts overnight. It is estimated that the blaze jumped the guard around 11 p.m. Sunday night. Air tankers and three helicopters are responding to slow the fire’s growth. Ground crews are actively burning fuels between the fire and Westside Road to establish a fire guard against the road. Westside
Road will remain closed for public safety reasons. The fire broke out Saturday morning after lightning strikes were recorded in the area south of Fintry Provincial Park the previous evening. The fire is situated on a steep sloped area of the Westside, about 500 metres west of Westside Road, currently about 30 hectares in size. The fire jumped the fireguard early Monday morning that had been set up on the weekend, with the flames having reached Westside Road.
Poll shows demand for Sunday access to public liquor stores THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER - Most British Columbians want public liquor stores open on Sundays to generate more revenue for the province, says the B.C.

Walker said opening every store on Sundays would generate up to $100 million a year, but the province disputes that would be the case. “To be clear, opening additional government liquor stores on Sunday will simply cannibalize existing sales and will only generate $8.11 million addition-

A wage hike and privatization of the Liquor Distribution Branch are among the main issues involved for more than 25,000 union members. In early July, liquor store employees staged a one-day strike at three liquor distribution centres in Vancouver, Kamloops and Victoria. The government has offered a two per cent wage increase in the first year of a twoyear contract, and 1.5 per cent in the second year.

Plan to get bureaucrats savvy about climate change risks easy to ignore: documents THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO Environment Canada is worried that the Harper government’s own effort to encourage public servants to more carefully consider the risks and possible impacts of climate change is falling on deaf ears, documents show. A special framework on climate change adaptation introduced in last year’s budget calls on bureaucrats across the government to routinely think about how decisions they make today could be hit by climate change in the years ahead. The goal is to ensure officials get savvy to climate risks, so federal policies and programs are better able to withstand groundlevel changes - melting permafrost destabilizing infrastructure in Canada’s North, for instance, or ocean acidification killing sockeye salmon. However, internal documents show that the team implementing the plan fears it may be dismissed in some corners of the bureaucracy, since officials won’t have to keep track of how their decisions deal with climaterelated risks. Without requiring such an explanation, the adaptation blueprint would likely be ignored by parts of the federal
government that don’t typically give a second thought to the country’s warming climate, warns an Environment Canada memo from July 2011 obtained by The Canadian Press through the Access to Information Act. “Without a mandatory reporting mechanism in place, the framework and the importance of considering and planning for how climate change might affect the federal government’s ability to carry out its responsibilities in the future may be lost on some departments and agencies for whom this is not seen as a priority.� Demanding such reports was deemed an option to be discussed “at a later date,� the memo on implementing the Federal Adaptation Policy Framework states. A spokesman for Environment Canada, which is spearheading efforts to breathe life into the plan, said results reports won’t be necessary, since departments and agencies are “committed� to integrating climate-risk checks into their decisions. “In this context, a mandatory reporting mechanism for the framework is not necessary for achieving the framework’s objectives,� Mark Johnson said in an email.
NDP environment critic Megan Leslie said the adaptation plan is toothless without such a requirement. “I don’t understand how this will work if it’s not somehow quantified or somehow tracked,� Leslie said. “Having something on a piece of paper that says, ‘Oh, don’t forget climate risk’ isn’t going to change anything.� According to the framework, knowledge and adaptation tools created as a result of the process would be shared outside the government to help Canadians cope with climate change. “As Canada’s largest organization, with operations in all regions of the country, an effective way for the federal government to advance adaptation efforts across Canada is to lead by example,� it states. The 2011 budget devoted almost $150 million to 10 climate prediction and adaptation initiatives spanning nine departments and agencies. The development of a federal adaptation framework dates back to 2003 under the former Liberal government, but has been stopped and started several times since then. The current version was put together in the wake of a fall 2010
report by environment commissioner Scott Vaughan. In that report, Vaughan chided Ottawa for not setting “clear priorities� on climate change adaptation, noting the Harper government had at the time failed to follow through on a 2007 promise to draft a plan. It pointed out that Ottawa acknowledges that climate change will be felt across the country, impacting “virtually all federal government portfolios, with significant implications for policies and programs related to Canadians’ health and the country’s industry, infrastructure, and ecosystems.� Vaughan declined to comment on the framework because his office has not audited the adaptation plan.
OTTAWA - With speculation rising of a second recession, the CIBC says Ottawa should consider a new round of stimulus spending to backstop the economy. CIBC chief economist Avery Shenfeld says with interest rates at record low levels, borrowing is so cheap that the government may actually come out financially better off by going deeper into debt. That’s because real 30-year rates are now below the economy’s long-term expected growth rate, so the cost of additional debt will steadily shrink as a portion of gross domestic product with time. The CIBC doubts the Bank of Canada has much ammunition left to stimulate the economy, noting
that with rates already low, trying to tempt Canadians to borrow even more to prop up the housing market may be counter-productive. Shenfeld cautions he is not predicting a second recession and that his suggestions are a kind of contingency plan should global conditions continue to deteriorate. So far, Canada has managed to skirt the troubles and Tuesday’s new GDP report for May is expected to show a relatively healthy gain of about 0.3 per cent from April. But most analysts are becoming more concerned about the global recovery, and say Canada would not be able to stay above the fray if the European crisis worsens.
Penny gets brief reprieve before vanishing THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA - The penny is getting a last-minute reprieve before being killed off as a circulated currency in Canada. And it can thank the holidays for its life being extended for a few more months. Finance Minister Jim Flaherty has
announced that the penny will no longer be circulated as of February 4, 2013. The Royal Canadian Mint was originally expected to begin taking it out of circulation by fall. The last penny made came out of the mint in May. But retailers complained that the tran-
sition to a pennyless marketplace would be too much of a burden right before the busy holiday season. After Feb. 4, cash transactions will have to be rounded to the nearest five cent increment, but electronic transactions will still be calculated down to the individual cent.

Dripping honey reveals massive beehive THE CANADIAN PRESS VARNEY, Ont. Never mind a house of horrors, this was a house of honey. A homeowner in southern Ontario says she knew she had a “sweet mess� on her hands when a crack in the ceiling started oozing honey. Loretta Yates soon discovered the 1 1/2-storey house she shares with her husband and 22-monthold son was also home to about 80,000 bees nesting in the first-floor ceiling.
She says her insurance company wouldn’t cover the damage to her house in Varney, just outside Mount Forest, and a pest control company couldn’t promise to get the bugs out for good.
That’s when she called beekeeper David Schuit, who took down the ceiling and scraped the honeycomb loose, catching at least one queen bee and recovering more than 100 kilograms of honey.

W
ith her demand that either Alberta or Ottawa ante up more cash before the proposed Northern Gateway pipeline can proceed through parts of British Columbia, B.C., Premier Christy Clark is playing a risky and illadvised game of economic chicken. But before getting into details, consider Clark’s five demands, some of which are reasonable, if occasionally superfluous. Three of her five demands relate to a legitimate environmental and ecological concern about the effect of an oil spill in the ocean or on land. After the BP spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, it is only prudent that a government make clear, and in legally watertight terms, that the cost of any spill be borne by the company responsible, not taxpayers. It is also fair to demand that world-class contingency plans be in place. Demand four from the B.C. premier is that legal requirements regarding Aboriginal and treaty rights are addressed, and also that First Nations participate in and benefit from heavy oil development. The first
part is unnecessary. By definition, a company must comply with the law and with existing treaty rights, though in B.C. the interpretation of both has been a moving target over the last 20 years. As for benefits from resource development, the pipeline’s sponsor, Enbridge would be expected to try to cut deals with some First Nations in B.C. – something the company no doubt realizes. But demands and asserted rights from some Aboriginals in B.C. have proven to be opportunistic and elastic over the decades. One shouldn’t expect miracles here. The fifth demand is that “British Columbia receives a fair share of the fiscal and economic benefits of a proposed heavy oil project that reflects the level, degree and nature of the risk borne by the province, the environment and taxpayers.” Dissect that ultimatum. It is premised on the notion that British Columbia takes almost all of the environmental and taxpayer risk. But here’s the rub: If Clark’s first three demands are met – where Enbridge is quite properly made to bear all responsibility for any

oil spill – where then is the “risk” for B.C.’s taxpayers, which would justify Clark’s demand for extra cash? Clark says she wants B.C. to get a “fair share” of all revenues from the Northern Gateway project. The B.C. premier objects that B.C.’s projected eight per cent share of various federal and provincial tax revenues from the expected $81 billion over 30 years to all governments isn’t enough. Come again? B.C.’s provincial treasury is to receive $6.5 billion over three decades for not obstructing economic development – and where the company will already be responsible for any oil spill, according to conditions one through three, and yet the B.C. premier wants more? And where would that
money come from? In her initial interviews on this subject, with the CBC, Clark took direct aim at Alberta. “Alberta gets the bulk of the benefits, takes very little of the risk. B.C. takes most of the risk and we get very few of the benefits. So it’s pretty obvious we have to do some talking here.” It’s clear who the “we” is to which Clark refers – the government of Alberta. Later, after more than a few people including Alberta Premier Alison Redford made clear – and properly so – that sharing constitutionally protected resource royalties is off the table, Clark began to demand that Ottawa insert itself into the melee she started. Readers should understand that, as one born and raised in British Columbia – and who has lived there, Alberta and elsewhere in my career – I always criticize governments when they become narrowly focused and ignore the benefits of wider prosperity for all. It is a mistake to instead try and artificially boost their economies, or in Clark’s case, try to hinder others’. And here’s some additional irony: If Clark torpedoes Gateway, B.C. loses $6.5 billion. So
she isn’t even acting in B.C.’s wider and longer-term interest. Applied broadly, the B.C. premier’s “logic” could mean other provinces would be justified in demanding a “fair share” of the mining royalties and stumpage fees paid to the B.C. government. After all, trains and trucks outbound from B.C. with such materials cause wear-and-tear on roads and railways in the rest of Canada. It’s up to Christy Clark to prove her arbitrary demand for extra money isn’t a shakedown. As for the question some of my home province compatriots ask, “What’s in it for me?” here’s the answer: The same thing every citizen gets in a free-trading, wealth creating country: prosperity, jobs, increased tax revenues and social programs. It all makes the standard of living for Canadians closer to that of Switzerland and ever further away from some banana republic. Such prosperity should be encouraged wherever possible, not held hostage by the whims of a premier. Mark Milke is a Senior Fellow with the Fraser Institute.

TV LISTINGS BOX OFFICE
‘Dark Knight’ still rules THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES - “The Dark Knight Rises” stayed atop the box office for the second straight weekend, making just over $64 million. But it’s lagging behind the staggering numbers of its predecessor, 2008’s “The Dark Knight.” The final piece in Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy has now grossed more than $289 million in its first 10 days in theatres. It dropped 60 per cent from its opening weekend of $160.9 million. By comparison, “The Dark Knight” took a 53 per cent drop in its second weekend with a gross of nearly $75.2 million and a 10-day cumulative gross of $313.8 million. In second place this weekend was the animated family film “Ice Age: Continental Drift,” which is still going strong in its third week. It made $13.3 million for a domestic total of nearly $114.9 million. The 20th Century Fox comedy “The Watch” came in third place with $13 million. Big-name comic actors Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughn and Jonah Hill play a group of guys who come together to form a neighbourhood watch.

LETTERS & OPINION
Youth crime stems from social factors
T
he recent spate of shootings in Toronto - especially the episode in the Danzig neighborhood - has sparked a flurry of comment. According to Mayor Rob Ford, immigrants are the likely culprits. This evidence-free muckraking was welcomed by Immigration Minister Jason Kenney, always on the lookout for ways to justify his incarceration approach to asylum seekers, and his disdain for refugees. Whipping up public suspicion that such individuals are likely criminals-in-waiting is a great help. Then there EVA were the predictable reactions from the other Troy side of the political spectrum. Ontario premier Dalton McGuinty put his emphasis on community programs, designed to target “at risk� young people, both to prevent youth from engaging in crime and rehabilitate those who have. “At risk� is a euphemism that usually refers to kids from poor communities, who happen to be ethnic minorities like youth of Caribbean descent or often (though not in this case) First Nations youth. In fact, these responses are two sides of the same coin. Both assume that the likely criminals among us - those most likely to pick up a gun and go on a rampage - are somehow inherently different. Either they were born somewhere else, or their upbringing in Canada was so deficient that they are “internal foreigners.� McGuinty got something right: young people, especially those between the ages of 15 and 20, make up the majority of all those charged with criminal offences, according to
Government of Canada figures from 2010-2011. But the claim that race or economic status are the key factors in this behaviour is another matter altogether. Consider the riots that broke out in Vancouver during the Stanley Cup playoffs in June 2011. Hundreds of young people (mainly white and East Asian), participated in or cheered on a festival of criminal behaviour. In addition to burning police cars and vandalising other vehicles, there were four stabbings and a spate of robberies, including at the Bay’s flagship store where display windows were smashed and crowds Media rushed in to seize whatever they could lay their hands on. The initial response of Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson and the Chief of Police was to blame the riot on a small group of “anarchists�. This conveniently isolated the cause of the problem and branded the criminals as outsiders - an attempt similar to that of Mayor Ford. Yet the evidence was otherwise. Many of those who stole from the Bay and smashed cars were solidly mainstream, middle-class Canadians. They included Nathan Kotylak, a member of the junior national men’s water polo team. These youths fail to fit into any of the tidy criminal risk categories currently being discussed: they were not poor, black, or foreign. They also seemed largely free of ideological commitments of the anarchist kind. What they lacked was something else. A recent study by the Vancouver Foundation draws attention to the changing sense
SAJOO
of community and belonging in the city. Tracking indicators such as how many of us have a clue who our neighbours are, or have any sense of belonging at all in our communities, the report shows a sharp fall in our connection to those around us. Never mind such values as “loyalty� or “solidarity,� we seem reluctant to be grounded in anything larger than our immediate personal space. Communities seem to be about Facebook and Twitter. Block Watch programs and other neighborhood initiatives only stop crime if they aren’t trumped by the impulses of isolation and disconnection. It is much easier to smash up a city you view as someone else’s, or open fire on a crowd of strangers. Social identity - shaped by where you see yourself belonging, and the people you look up to - has a decisive influence on action. Gangs are one way of filling these gaps, but not the only one which will lead to criminal behaviour. Lone criminals like Dawson College shooter Kimveer Gill often have a mentality of radical separation from their communities and peers. But the lack of any meaningful ties, and the ensuing loss of social responsibility, is the kind of gap that allows fascination with violence to take over. If public spaces are simply areas where isolated individuals move past each other, and communities are reduced to a virtual reality, we will lack the sense of identity necessary to foster ethical citizenship. That puts us all at risk. Eva Sajoo is a Research Associate with the Centre for the Comparative Study of Muslim Societies and Cultures at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver. She has a graduate degree in International Development and Education from the University of London.
Restore military outreach program An editorial from the Winnipeg Free Press The Canadian Forces has shut down a parliamentary outreach program following messy allegations that air force officers were using the program to collect information on Defence Minister Peter MacKay’s political opponents. The officers were allegedly attempting to determine if certain members of Parliament had used military aircraft and, if so, whether they had reimbursed the government. It’s believed the information was sought to help MacKay, who has been criticized for using military transport for personal travel, as opposed to legitimate government business. The air force defended its actions, saying it was merely collecting information that is sought by the media and the public, but the affair has the smell
of political interference by a minister who has not been shy in the past about enjoying the perks of his position. It’s another black mark on his record as defence minister, but the collateral damage is serious. The outreach program was intended to help MPs become familiar with the Canadian military and its operations, which are often a mystery to most Canadians. With 100,000 regular and reserve troops and a budget of nearly $20 billion, the military is the largest single department in Canada and politicians should not be excluded from observing its operations and getting to know the men and women in uniform. MacKay should restore the outreach program to ensure the military remains connected to the people’s representatives in Ottawa.

OBITUARIES MCLEAN, STANLEY ROBERT DUNCAN — Stan was born January 2, 2011, and on July 24, 2012 in the loving arms of his parents Debbie and Brad, Stan moved his smile to another destination.

Although Stan’s presence among us was short, his smile and dancing eyes will live forever in the hearts of those that were privileged to meet him. Stan would light up a room with his smile and warm your heart with his curiosity and personality. Stan could make strangers in a cafe smile and when he would throw his food on the floor, he would look at you, smile, and all was good. That was the Stan Smile, it made things good. His life is an inspiration to us all. His fight, his playfulness, his joyfulness, his love, his being, is what Stan was all about. Stan made the world a better place by teaching us to enjoy every second of everyday, no matter what the hardship. A Stan Smile made everything right. Stan and a Smile, forever remembered and loved.

Lynn was born on May 10, 1951 in Rossland B.C. and resided there most of her life. She is now reunited, in heaven, with her mother, Mona; father,
Everet; son, Christopher; and sister, Pat. She is survived by her husband, Cam; children, Tera (Mike), Stephen, Leah, and Cindy; brother, Roy (Norma); sister, Penny (Mike); many nieces and nephews; and 12 grandchildren. Lynn was a beautiful, hard-working woman who loved her family, her cats and her gardens. She had a very strong faith in God that never wavered throughout both her victories and her struggles in life. She had a desire to help anyone in need, and was known for touching many lives with her kindness, love, and willingness to accept people for who they were. A service and Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, August 18th 2012, at 3:00pm, at 1891 Victoria Street in Rossland, B.C.

He was 94 years of age. Reg was a true gentleman who lived a dignified life with quiet strength and consideration for everyone around him. He served our country with the Canadian Army in WWII and in 1945, took leave from active duty to marry his greatest love, Freda. They were married for 45 years until her death in 1990. Reg is also predeceased by his brothers Harold, Raymond and Roy. He is survived by his sister Connie (Sechelt, BC), his daughter Carol (Trail) and his son Richard (Maureen), also of Trail, and their children Cindy (Jason), Heather (Scott), Trevor (Kelly) and Tim. In 1999, our Papa became known as Big Papa, when the first of his five great-grandchildren were born (Ellie followed by Leo, Samuel, Evan and Nolan). To us, his family, there is no finer man than Reg. We’ll miss him with all our hearts, but also celebrate his freedom and his reunion with Freda. Our family extends heartfelt thanks to Judy Millar, Trail Home Support and the Columbia View Lodge, whose staff became friendly, familiar faces and provided an exceptional level of care to Papa. A special thanks goes to our friend Shayne Brandt who cared for Papa at CVL. We were thankful for each and every shift you worked with Reg. A Graveside Memorial will be held at Mountain View Cemetery on Wednesday, August 1, 2012 at 10:00 am with a reception to follow. Al Grywacheski of Alternatives Funeral and Cremation Services™ has been entrusted with arrangements. As an expression of sympathy, donations may be made to the Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 11, 2141 Columbia Avenue, Trail, BC V1R 1K8 Ph. 250-364-1422. You are invited to leave a personal message of condolence at the family’s online register at www.myalternatives.ca Thank you, Papa, for your guidance, your love and for your service to our country. You’ll always be in our hearts.
Romantic crooner starred in Hollywood musicals THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES - Tony Martin, the romantic singer who appeared in movie musicals from the 1930s to the 1950s and sustained a career in records, television and nightclubs from the Depression era into the 21st century, has died. He was 98. Martin died of natural causes Friday evening at his West Los Angeles home, his friend and accountant Beverly Scott said Monday. A peer of Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra, Martin sang full voice in a warm baritone that carried special appeal for his female audience. Among his hit recordings were “I Get Ideas,” ”To Each His Own,“ ”Begin the Beguine“ and ”There’s No Tomorrow.“ “He’s the ultimate crooner who outlasted all is contemporaries,” musician and longtime friend Gabriel Guerrero said from his Oregon home. Martin recently sang to Guerrero over the telephone. “He has truly remained the butterscotch baritone until he was 98,” Guerrero added. Although he never became a full-fledged movie star, he was featured in 25 films, most of them made during the heyday of the Hollywood musicals. A husky 6 feet tall and dashingly handsome, he was often cast as the romantic lead. He also married two movie musical superstars, Alice Faye and Cyd Charisse, and the latter union lasted 60 years, until her death in 2008. Martin found his escape through music while growing up in San Francisco and Oakland amid a poor, close-knit Russian Jewish family, enduring taunts and slights from gentile classmates. “I always sang,” he wrote. “I always played some instrument or

At first, of course, my music was just for my own fun. I didn’t recognize it right away as my passport away from poverty.” Performing on radio led to his break into the film business. His first singing role came in the 1936 “Sing Baby Sing,” which starred future wife Faye and introduced the Ritz Brothers to the screen as a more frenetic version of the Marx Brothers. As a contract player at Twentieth Century-Fox, Martin also appeared in “Pigskin Parade” (featuring young Judy Garland), “Banjo on My Knee” (Barbara Stanwyck, Joel McCrea) “Sing and Be Happy,” ”You Can’t Have Everything“ (Faye, Don Ameche) ”Ali Baba Goes to Town“ (comedian Eddie Cantor) and ”Sally, Irene and Mary.“ In 1940 he shifted to MGM and sang in such films as “The Ziegfeld Girl” (James Stewart, Lana Turner, Judy Garland), “The Big Store” (the Marx Brothers), “Till the Clouds Roll By,”
”Easy to Love“ (Esther Williams) and ”Deep in My Heart.“ In 1948, he produced and starred in “Casbah,” a well-received film musical version of “Algiers” with a fine score by Harold Arlen and Leo Robin. He made singing tours of Europe and had a yearly contract at London’s Palladium. Martin had fallen in love with Faye while at Fox, where she was one of the studio’s biggest stars. Married in 1937, the newlyweds were considered one of Hollywood’s handsomest couples. But the marriage eroded because of career conflicts and his distaste for becoming known as Mr. Alice Faye. They divorced after two years. Martin met Charisse, then a rising dance star at MGM, when they were dinner partners at a party given by their mutual agent. In later years, Martin and Charisee put out a 1976 autobiography, “The Two of Us,” and often toured in a singing and dancing shows.

Ella Matteucci and Team B.C.’s quest for gold came up silver at Baseball Canada’s Senior Women’s Invitational championship in Spruce Grove, Alta. on the weekend, however, the Fruitvale native’s performance was simply outstanding on the mound. Matteucci led Team B.C. to the gold-medal game, picking up two wins, two game MVP nods, and a national team selection along the way.
“It was exciting to play for the gold medal, but I just wish we would have had a better showing.” ELLA MATTEUCCI
Unfortunately, Team B.C. lost its bid for gold in an 11-0 loss to Ontario on Saturday. The easterners only led 3-0 until the top of the sixth inning when they pushed eight runs across the plate to break it open. Unforced errors and an inability to generate any offence in the game hurt B.C. especially against a team that has eight players on the national squad. “I wish it would have ended up better,” said Matteucci. “It was exciting to play for the gold medal, but I just
wish we would have had a better showing.” Matteucci beat Ontario 6-4 in the first game of the round robin Thursday, allowing two runs in five-innings pitched and was named MVP of the game. Team B.C. then went on to defeat Team West 10-0 and Quebec 8-6 before getting walloped by Alberta 13-0 in the final game of the preliminary round. But their 3-1 record made them top-seed and set up a semifinal rematch against Alberta, while Ontario played Quebec in the other semi. After the humbling defeat to Alberta, Team B.C. coaches Randy Elrick and Al Forman told the 19-year-old pitching phenom that she would be starting the semifinal game against Alberta. “He told me I was pitching after the 13-0 game, and maybe I was a little nervous because of the fact that they just killed us, but no, I wasn’t that nervous,” said Matteucci. “I feel like I’m most comfortable pitching, whereas say if I’m playing short stop or catching I’m maybe more nervous, just because I have confidence in my pitching.” The Fruitvale native didn’t disappoint, pitching a complete game 3-0 shutout, giving up eight hits and one walk while striking out seven batters for the victory. Matteucci also scored two runs, going 1-for-3 at the plate. “I think my best performance was in the semifinal game. Our defence wasn’t

Fruitvale’s Ella Matteucci takes the mound for Team B.C. at Baseball Canada’s Senior Women’s Invitational tournament in Edmonton Saturday. Matteucci blanked Alberta 3-0 to make it to the gold medal game where the team would succumb to Ontario. very good in the 13-0 game, but our coaches just kept telling us, ‘You guys have to play the full seven innings,’ and I think finally in the semifinal game we actually did.” Her two wins and 15 Ks led the tournament as she was named player of the game in both trips to the mound. The Clarkson University student played shortstop in the other four games, going 3-for-12 at the plate. Following the tournament, the daughter of Paul and Melissa Matteucci was named to the national team, but Ella decided to take a pass on the IBAF Women’s Baseball World Cup in Edmonton Aug. 10-19, to prepare for the upcoming hockey season. “That was a personal decision not to
attend Worlds because of hockey. I have to return to school on the 22nd 23rd (of August) . . . I didn’t get as much playing time (for the national team) as I would have liked last year, and if I wasn’t working towards it, say the weeks leading up to school, then I might get opted out of playing again and I don’t want to ever experience that feeling again.” Matteucci is heading back to Wilcox, Sask. next week to assist at Notre Dame’s women’s hockey showcase that helps young female hockey players further their hockey careers and get recruited to Canadian and NCAA colleges. She will then return to instruct at the Champions Hockey School at the Trail Memorial Arena Aug.
12-18. With lots of hockey on her plate, Matteucci says she can wait a year or two before committing to the national baseball team. As long as she plays in the Women’s invitational with Team B.C., Matteucci will remain eligible. The former J. L. Crowe student is a graduate of the Athol Murray College of Notre Dame where she led her hockey team to a national championship, was named 2011 female athlete of the year, and also made history by pitching a no hitter in the Regina baseball league. While a ‘Hound,’ Matteucci received a hockey scholarship for Clarkson University in Potsdam, N.Y. where she will return for her sophomore year.
On the triathlon circuit, local athletes performed admirably this month as they swam, cycled, and biked their way into contention in a variety of half-triathlons. Rossland’s Seth Biting came fourth overall and first in the 40-44-age division at the Runner’s Den Sylvan Lake triathlon last week in Sylvan Lake, Alta., while Fruitvale triathlete Carol Corbett raced to an eighth-place overall finish and second in her age category and Carolyn Buehler of Rossland crossed the finish line 31st overall and seventh in the women’s 45-49 div. at the Desert Half-Tri in Osoyoos. In the Colville Tiger Triathlon last week, the team of Amy Titsworth of Warfield and Barbara Shields of Rossland cruised to victory in the AllFemale division 120-and-over with a time of 2:19:45. The half-triathlon race consists of a grueling two-kilometre swim, followed by a 90-km. bike and a 21-km. run. At Sylvan Lake, Biting was looking to duplicate fellow Rosslander - Dallas Cain’s 2011 victory and hung in contention throughout the race. Biting exited the water in eighth spot in a time of 35 minutes and 26 seconds, but made up substantial ground in the cycle with the third best time of 2:24:24. Biting kept up the pace, crossing the finish line just over 14 minutes back of winner Wade Carlson of Penticton, while Teresa Richer of Red Deer won the women’s. Corbett, who is also training for the World Iron Man Triathlon championship in Kona, Hawaii in the fall, found herself in 37th place after the swim, but poured it on in the bike with the ninth best time, moving her into 14th spot. She finished it off with a blistering run where she posted the sixth best time and averaged 5:15 per kilometer, for a final time of 5:38:39. Janelle Morrison of Penticton won the event in 4:45:29. Next up is the CYSWOG’n Fun triathlon in Nelson on Saturday.
CANADIAN OPEN GOLF
Piercy shoots lights out HAMILTON, Ont. – Scott Piercy opened the 103rd playing of Canada’s National Open Championship on Thursday with a course-record 8-under par 62 and went on to shoot three consecutive rounds of 3-under par 67 to capture the 2012 RBC Canadian Open title at Hamilton Golf and Country Club. Piercy, who picked up his second career PGA TOUR win and third top-10 finish of the season, finished with a four-day tally of 17-under par 263, besting both Robert
Garrigus and William McGirt by a single stroke. The 33-yearold, who collected $936,000 (U.S.) in winnings, also earned 500 FedEx Cup points and is now ranked 13th in the FedEx Cup standings. “I’ve been playing good for a while now, and you just need a couple of good breaks here or there and just play solid,” said Piercy, who converted five birdies on the day, including four consecutive birdies on the front-9.

SPORTS OLYMPIC ROUNDUP
Raonic faces tough test in Tsonga DeLaet low Canadian Canadians advance THE CANADIAN PRESS LONDON - Canadian tennis players Milos Raonic and Aleksandra Wozniak got their Olympic tournaments off to a winning start. Raonic posting a comfortable 6-3, 6-4 victory over Japan’s Tatsuma Ito, while Wozniak, from Blainville, Que., eased past New Zealand’s Marina Erakovic 6-2, 6-1 in her singles opener Monday. Raonic, from Thornhill, Ont., used smooth ground strokes and cut shots to prevent Ito from finding his rhythm. The Canadian picked up an early break for a 3-1 lead and was never threatened the rest of the way. “For me I’m fortunate enough to play with a big enough game that most of my results are going to depend on me,” Raonic said. “I feel like if I step it up, I will have an opportunity to win.” Toronto’s Daniel Nestor and Vancouver’s Vasek Pospisil were scheduled to play their opening men’s doubles match later Monday against Horia Tecau and Adrian Ungur of Romania.
The draw gets a lot tougher now for Raonic, who at No. 25 is 44 positions higher that Ito in the world rankings. Up next is a second-round match Tuesday against world No. 6 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga of France. “Really my job is just going to be go out there, take care of my serve and try to create opportunities,” Raonic said. “But I’m going to have to go out there going for the win. He’s not going to give it to me.” On the water, the Canadian men’s eight rowing crew’s found some redemption after a woeful first race over the weekend. The Canadians finished second in its repechage to advance to the final. It was a bounce-back performance for defending Olympic champions after finishing a disappointing last in a tough four-boat heat Saturday. Canada’s crew charged hard at Britain in the final 500 metres but the British, who led from the start, held on to win in five minutes 26.85 seconds. Canada was second in 5:27.41. The third-place Netherlands and fourth-place Australia also
advanced to Wednesday’s final. Poland and Ukraine did not move on. The Canadian men’s four finished third in their heat to advance to the semifinal. Australia easily won the heat in an Olympic best 5:47.06, ahead of Germany. In the pool, Canadians Barbara Jardin and Samantha Cheverton both advanced to the swimming seminfinals in their Olympic debuts. Montreal’s Jardin clocked the sixth fastest time overall in the women’s 200-metre freestyle in one minute 57.92 seconds, while Cheverton, of Lachine, Que., was ninth in 1:58.11. Erica Morningstar of Calgary wasn’t as fortunate. She missed a berth in the 200-metre individual medley semi by one spot, finishing 17th in 2:14.32. In men’s beach volleyball, Canadians Josh Binstock and Martin Reader dropped a 2-0 decision to Norway in their second match of the tournament. Binstock, from Richmond Hill, Ont., and Reader, of Comox Valley, B.C., are now 1-1 and still in contention.
FROM PAGE 11 “I felt like I got a couple of good breaks and continued to play solid and I’m kind of speechless, to be honest. I’m really excited to be the champion.” With the win, Piercy also earned an invite to the World Golf Championships – Bridgestone Invitational next week in Akron, OH, and will forego the defence of his 2011 Reno-Tahoe Open title. He also earned a two-year PGA TOUR exemption that will take him through the 2014 season. Garrigus, who entered the day atop the leaderboard with a onestroke lead, shot even-par 70 on Sunday, while McGirt, who was in sole possession of second place to start the day, posted a score of 1-under par 69 as both players finished T2 at 16-under 264. Josh Teater, Bud Cauley and Chris Kirk finished T4 at 14-under 266, three strokes off the lead, while Vijay Singh, Bo Van Pelt and Scott Stallings were T7 at 12-under 268 for the championship. In his fourth appearance at the RBC Canadian Open, Graham DeLaet of Weyburn, Sask. earned low Canadian honours, clinching the Rivermead Cup with a final-
round score of even-par 70. DeLaet finished T56 at 2-under par 278 for the championship alongside Greg Owen, Russell Knox, John Huh and Ted Potter Jr. “It was a great week, a lot of support,” said DeLaet, who has two top-10 finishes on the PGA TOUR. “...It was just cool playing in front of the home fans, and a little disappointing that I wasn’t able get anything going this week, but at the same time, nice to be back home.” Fresh off a win at the 2012 Ontario Men’s Amateur Championship, Toronto’s Albin Choi, a junior at North Carolina State University and a member of Team Canada’s National Squad, earned top amateur honours and claimed the Gary Cowan Medal, finishing T73 with a four-day tally of 1-over par 281. “Well, I’m definitely happy that I made it to the weekend,” said Choi, who closed the tournament with a final round 2-over par 72. “I got off to a slow start both on Saturday and today, and I really couldn’t bounce back from it, but overall I enjoyed my time here. Walking up 18 was really cool. Everyone cheered for me on 18, so that was a good experience.”

LEISURE
Taking responsibility is part of being an adult Dear Annie: My boyfriend and I informally agreed to move in together once I’m out of college and he is in grad school. Right now, we have a long-distance relationship. Here’s the problem. I recently found a twoyear MFA program overseas that I’ve fallen in love with. I told my boyfriend that I’d like to apply, and initially, he seemed happy for me. But whenever I want to discuss the details, he directs the conversation elsewhere. I know this program means more time away from him, and I don’t expect either of us to change our plans. But it seems he expected me to move in with him wherever he ends up going for his master’s. Even if I don’t get into the MFA program, I still want to explore the world before settling down with him. He doesn’t seem to get it. Also, how do I get

my parents to support my decision to go overseas? I know they will claim that I won’t be safe and ask me why an American school isn’t good enough. I don’t want them to yell at me. -- Pennsylvania Dear Pennsylvania: One of the signs of adulthood is taking responsibility for your choices and being confident in the face of objections from others. You should listen and take into account those whose opinions you respect (such as your parents and boyfriend), but the final decision is yours, good or bad. Own it. A program abroad is usually an oppor-
tunity for growth. A boyfriend who pressures you to behave in ways that benefit him but not you could be a problem in the future. Please acknowledge that these people will miss you and worry about you, but also reassure them that this program is beneficial for your education and maturity, and you will stay in close contact. The yelling and disapproval is something you will simply have to endure until things settle down. Dear Annie: I recently sent a small check to a friend of mine living in bankruptcy. The explicit “strings attached” to this gift were that he use it for a specific luxury item that has meaning to him and that he would not otherwise get for himself in his current financial straits. He told me he used the money instead to pay an everyday bill. I considered my gift to be disrespected and told
him so. His response to my disappointment was to assail me verbally, saying I must think I’m better than he is, and then to go into a prolonged defense of his misuse of my gift. I would have felt better if he had simply apologized, and I ended our relationship of more than 40 years. I feel I was played the fool. What do you think? -- “Omerta” in New York Dear N.Y.: We think when you send a check to a friend who is living in bankruptcy, you don’t tell him to spend the money on a luxury item when his electricity is about to be turned off. You meant well, but your lack of empathy provoked his inappropriate verbal attack. Ending a 40-year friendship in retaliation implies you have no appreciation whatsoever for his stressful situation. How sad. Dear Annie: “Paul” asked who should pay
the greens fees when friends visit and ask to play golf at his facility. Having played golf for many years, I feel that everyone pays his or her own greens fees. It’s just an automatic thing, no questions asked. Simply walk up
to the desk and pay your own way. It’s the polite thing to do, especially if you want to be asked to play again. -Shreveport Dear Shreveport: Thanks. Here’s one more: Dear Annie: Try to
take the money out of the equation. When we go visit our friends and relatives, we pay. When they come visit us, we pay. We’re just pleased to see them. -Happy in Tennessee

LEISURE
YOUR HOROSCOPE By Francis Drake For Wednesday, Aug. 1, 2012 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Today’s Full Moon could create tension when dealing with children, romantic partners or sports colleagues. Just be aware that you will have to be more patient than usual, which you can do. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Do not challenge authority figures today, because you’ll regret it. The Full Moon makes this a touchy day for everyone. Just go with the flow. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Avoid controversial subjects like politics, religion or racial issues today, because this is a Full Moon day. On the Full Moon, people are more emotional than usual. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) This is a poor day to discuss how to share something, especially jointly held
property or inheritances. Postpone this discussion for a few days. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) The only Full Moon directly opposite your sign is taking place today, which means you have to be tolerant and patient with others. Expect conflict with partners and close friends. (Oops.) VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Co-workers and customers at your work might be shorttempered today because of the Full Moon energy. You can be part of the problem or part of the solution. (Your choice.) LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Parents and teachers will have to be patient with children today, because they can feel today’s Full Moon energy! Romantic partners likewise will need to be patient with each other.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Avoid domestic conflict by acknowledging that today is the Full Moon, which means you should give others a wide berth. Don’t go looking for trouble! SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is a mildly accidentprone day because of the Full Moon tension that everyone around you (including you) feels. If you remain calm, you
can avoid a mishap. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Disputes about money, cash flow, receipts or possessions might arise today due to the intense energy of today’s Full Moon. Avoid these discussions if you can. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) The only Full Moon in your sign all year is taking place today. This is why you feel tense with others, especially
close friends and partners. Chill out. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) You might be doing a slow boil about something because you feel irritated with others, especially at work. Nevertheless, you feel you can’t speak up. You’re right -- zip thy lip. YOU BORN TODAY You can be a crusader who is determined to persuade others to see your point of view. You

The Ram Creek Hot Springs have always been a mystery - just who was it that carved the pools out of the hillside? But now that mystery has been destroyed in a recent landslide between July 12 and 16, and pool-goers will only have memories of the isolated hot pools. Communication director for the Ministry of Environment, Suntanu Dalal, said BC Parks last attended the springs on July 12, and found the pools intact as usual. It was reported on July 16 that a slide in the area had torn through the pools, reducing them to a flattened, rocky area. The springs are found within the Ram Creek Ecological Reserve. Dalal said there are no plans to reconstruct the ponds at this time, but BC Parks will be doing research to see if the loss of the ponds is affecting drainage. “BC Parks is evaluating the impacts of the event on the natural values,� he said. The road leading up to the pools was destroyed by the slide. It will not be reconstructed, and Dalal said it has been listed as closed indefinitely. Dalal said the earliest report of a pool at Ram Creek can be traced back to 1957. The private, lesser-known cousin to the Lussier Hot Springs were being enjoyed well before the area was made an Ecological Reserve in 1971.
