Enter the District of Lake Country’s contest to name the portion of Highway 97 that will be decommissioned when the Winfield-Oyama bypass is complete. The new Highway 97 construction between Winfield and Oyama is more than 50 per cent complete. When that project is done, the replaced section of Highway 97 will become a local road under the jurisdiction of the District of Lake Country. The B.C. Ministry of Transportation has advised the district that highway signage will show “Old Highway 97”
as the formal name unless a road name is provided. The district is asking for your help to find the perfect name for this special section of road through Lake Country. The name should be something that is memorable, relevant for tourism and help one and all find their way. Lake Country council will make the final decision on the road name in November. Road naming is a unique way of recognizing the natural attributes, flora and fauna, wildlife and historical influences of any community. It is important that the his-
torical significance and legacies of individuals and pioneers of the District of Lake Country be acknowledged. It is also important to recognize the tourism and wayfinding implications of road naming for this special section of local road. Additionally, the proposed names shall be referred to utility agencies, 911 Dispatch, the Regional District of Central Okanagan and neighbouring jurisdictions in order to avoid duplication and conflict— standard practice for all road naming in the Okanagan. Individuals and commun-
ity groups have already suggested names over the past few years and as it’s been brought forward in the process of updating the district’s road naming policy. If you would like to support one of the following previously suggested names: Thomas Wood Drive; Lake Country Drive; Lakeside Way; Waterfront Avenue; Kokanee Parkway, or suggest one of your own, vote in the poll at the bottom left of the district’s homepage (www.lakecountry. bc.ca). Or suggest another name of your own choosing and email
it to the district at admin@lakecountry.bc.ca. Remember to include your name and contact information and the reason why you think the name you’ve suggested should be used. There will be a prize draw from among all contributors who provide contact information. The district will publish notices about the naming contest in water utility invoices or check out details of the contest at www.lakecountry.bc.ca or www.okanaganway.ca. The deadline for contest entries is Oct. 15.
MLA’s promotion to cabinet criticized by Conservative ALISTAIR WATERS
Is it possible to forgive something that is unforgiveable, faith columnist Jim Taylor ponders. ...............................

The newly acclaimed B.C Conservative candidate for Kelowna-Lake Country wasted no time in firing his first verbal volley at the man he hopes to unseat in next May’s provincial election. Graeme James, who won the B.C. Conservative nomination last Thursday, blasted firstterm Liberal MLA Norm Letnick’s recent appointment as agriculture minister, saying the job should have gone to someone with experience in agriculture. And he added he feels the only reason Letnick got the job was because the Liberals are scared of losing the riding.
Graeme James The Central Okanagan, long seen as a stronghold for the B.C. Liberals, now has all three area MLAs in cabinet. Westside-Kelowna MLA Ben Stewart is the province’s citizens’ services minister and Steve Thomson is forest, lands and natural resource operations minister.
“But the Liberals don’t have the support of the electorate anymore,” said James. Letnick, like James, is a former Kelowna city councillor. Prior to his entry into local politics, Letnick worked as a business professor at Okanagan College’s School of Business and before that was a businessman and a municipal councillor in Banff. In 2008, he won the Kelowna-Lake Country riding with 52 per cent of the vote. Unlike Stewart and Thomson, Letnick was not appointed to cabinet under former Liberal premier Gordon Campbell. His successor, Christy
Clark—whom Letnick did not support for the Liberal leadership— tabbed him to lead the select standing committee on health to come up with a blueprint for the future of health care in this province. He had to give up that post earlier this month when he was named agriculture minister. James called Letnick’s elevation to cabinet a political appointment aimed at currying favour with local voters. “It speaks to the fact (the Liberals) are concerned about losing this riding,” said James. James, who has a trades and business background and who owns a 10-acre farm in
Routes Grill
North Glenmore, served on Kelowna city council for one term, from 2008 to 2011, before losing his seat as part of a massive change on council that saw the then incumbent mayor and five of her councillors replaced. James announced a short time later that he would seek the B.C. Conservative nomination in Kelowna-Lake Country and started selling party memberships. Following this weekend’s B.C. Conservative Party annual general meeting in Langley, James plans to start knocking on doors and talking to voters as he prepares for next spring’s election. “I already have my
election team in place,” he said. “We will hit the ground running.” James has also thrown his support solidly behind embattled B.C. Conservative leader John Cummins, who survived a challenge to her leadership from within the party ranks at last weekend’s party convention. Calling himself a “huge” supporter of Cummins, James credited Cummins for taking the B.C. Conservatives to 22 per cent in the polls from just two per cent a few years ago. When asked Friday for his rebuttal to James’ comments, Letnick simply shrugged off the criticism, adding no further comment.

Premier opens health sciences centre at UBCO
Premier Christy Clark officially opened the new home of the Southern Medical Program on Thursday that, for the first time, will see doctors completing their medical training in the Okanagan thus benefiting B.C. students and families. “Our government is focused on investing and expanding post-secondary programs to educate health care professionals so that all families all across B.C. have access to quality health care,” said Clark. “Students tend to practice where they’re trained, and now student doctors can complete their entire medical undergraduate program right here in the Okanagan.” The Reichwald Health Sciences Centre at UBC Okanagan was constructed with a $32.7-million investment by the B.C. government. It accommodates 32 first-year medical students, bringing the number of first-year medical students in the province to 288, more than doubling the number of spaces since 2001. “With the start of the Southern Medical Program at UBC’s Okanagan campus, we’ve more than doubled the number of first-year spaces for student doctors in B.C.,” said John Yap, Minister of Advanced Education, Innovation and Technology. “The UBC faculty of medicine’s Southern Medical Program, housed in the beautiful Reichwald Health Sciences Centre, is teaching

“Just as importantly, it will enable collaborative learning and interdisciplinary teaching opportunities for all of the health sciences.” Deborah Buszard, deputy vice-chancellor and principal of UBC Okanagan, said, “This innovative and purposebuilt facility provides state-of-the-art teaching and research space for our faculty and students studying in the Southern Medical Program and the school of health and exercise sciences, and will ultimately enable them to make meaningful contributions to the health and medical fields.” The 4,266-squaremetre facility includes high-tech classrooms and lecture theatres networked with the other three medical program locations in Vancouver, Victoria and Prince George.

new trades complex will be able to accommodate up to 2,408 students and apprentices, up from the current capacity of about 2,280. The project responds to a growing demand for trades-related training, said college dean of trades and apprentices John Holler. He said the college has had a proposal to expand and renovate its existing facilities in to the government for the last three years. Haller said Kelowna campus trades training has more than doubled over the last 10 years, requiring the addition of two off-site leased facilities to accommodate its electrical and plumbing courses. Once the project is complete, students who now learn their trades at the two off-site locations will do so at the KLO Road campus. That is expected to add 750 students alone. The resulting consolidation of all trades training on the Kelowna campus will save the college $245,000 in leasing costs for the off-campus

WEEK 9 -1 5 1 . OCT
The B.C. government is providing $28 million to expand and renovate trades training facilities at the Kelowna campus of Okanagan College. Advanced Education Minister John Yap made the announcement in the auto shop at Okanagan College Friday morning, saying the money, part of B.C.’s Jobs Plan and its Skills and Training Plan, will help the college educate hundreds more trades students by the time the project is complete in four years time. Okanagan college, which currently has 2,280 trades students—2,000 of whom are at the Kelowna campus—is now the second biggest trades training institution in B.C. Yap said the new facilities, double in size to what is now available, will help welders, heavyduty mechanics, electricians, plumbers and other skilled workers get the training they need. The Kelowna Trades Complex renew-
al project will create a 6,264-square-metre expansion to the existing facilities, and renovate 4,385 square-metres of existing space. The expansion and renovation of the heavy duty and commercial transport building will add 260 square-metres of shop space and 306 squaremetres of storage and ancillary space, and include three 20-seat classrooms. “This exciting expansion and renovation project will provide a modern, spacious and energy-efficient space where students and instructors can be assured of a highquality, rewarding training experience,” said Yap. In addition to renovating the existing facilities—which date back to the earliest days of Okanagan College in 1963— the money will also pay for new space and all of it will be brought up to LEED platinum status for maximum energy savings. That alone is expected to save the college $220,000 in energy costs per year. Once completed, the

space on Penno Road and Acland Road. The total cost of the project is $33 million, with Okanagan College raising $5 million. Construction preparation will begin immediately, with a projected completion date of spring 2016. The existing shops and classrooms will be fully renovated and retrofitted to modernize and better utilize the space. A two-storey addition will more than double the size of the complex, providing needed student space and innovative classrooms for trades and technology programs specifically focused on skills development, training and upgrading. “This $33-million project will provide much-needed revitalization and renewal for Okanagan College’s Kelowna campus, creating additional capacity for students and apprentices in a building that will be a showcase for sustainability,” said Okanagan College president Jim Hamilton.
“Just as a decision 50 years ago to invest in trades training facilities here has had an immeasurable impact in this region, the decision to invest in developing this showcase for training will yield positive change and pride that can be shared by students, industry, the community, the college and government.” Yap said B.C. taxpayers are providing more than $45 million for operations and student programs at Okanagan College this year, up from $25.1 million in 2005-06. Counting Friday’s announcement, the B.C. government spent more than $63 million on capital investments at Okanagan College since 2005, including the Jim Pattison Centre of Excellence in Sustainable Building Technologies and Renewable Energy Conservation at the Penticton campus, and the renovation and expansion of the trades facility at the Salmon Arm campus.

Clark’s strategy: Swap sociology for socket sets
P
remier Christy Clark’s latest employment announcement set the tone for one of the big issues in the 2013 election. Flanked by aircraft technician students at BCIT in Burnaby, Clark announced a $75-million program to upgrade aging trade and technical school facilities and hire instructors. And she did it with some pointed criticism of the career path chosen by many of today’s high school students. Clark introduced a student electrician, the first woman to win the senior technology education award at her high school, who then went on to get a bachelor’s degree in English and sociology. No job, so she went to BCIT. Her message was clear. The government’s pre-election budget is going to shift priorities to the huge number of skilled trades jobs that are already going begging in the north. More
‘‘
…JOBS THAT ARE ALREADY GOING BEGGING IN THE NORTH…
BC Views
Tom Fletcher students will get started in high school, instead of being subsidized to wander around and find themselves with an unfocused university degree that still leaves them in need of practical skills. Shop upgrades were announced for trades training in Prince George, Kelowna and Greater Victoria. There will be new student financial aid, but it will be tied to skill programs the economy needs now. And with the government’s financial situation, you can bet that sociology, women’s studies and the rest of the
dead-end programs dear to the hearts of last year’s Occupy campers will feel the pinch. The B.C. Liberal skills training push was partly inspired by last year’s “inequality” protest, after Dawson Creek Mayor Mike Bernier waded into the Occupy Vancouver squat to hand out business cards. They need cooks and labourers as well as pipefitters up there these days, and that’s before the B.C. gas patch goes into a huge expansion for Asian exports. A version of Kevin Falcon’s “welfare air” idea to move unemployed recipients north was included in last week’s announcement by Clark and her jobs czar, Pat
Bell. Called Job Match, it’s a $2.9-million pilot program in the Peace region. It will deliver basic education and work boots for people in that region before anyone will be flown up from Nanaimo or Nelson. Cruising along at nearly 50 per cent in the polls, the NDP have also put a heavy emphasis on post-secondary. But they’re still playing to the urban Occupy crowd, with a promise of a tax on banks to fund student grants. Instead of providing loan relief after successful completion, they’re going to hand out money at the front end, just like they did in my student days. My experience as a student, a job seeker and a parent is that free money encourages aimless study, and the selection of courses that are appealing rather than safe investments. We already have far too much of that, and I think most students today would
be better off with a bigger debt and a well-paying job. As the new trades plan was being rolled out (and mostly ignored by the Vancouver media), former finance minister Colin Hansen announced he’s retiring. It was Hansen who started the push for skills training back in 2008, emphasizing that there will be a million new jobs open by 2019, 600,000 of them due to retiring baby boomers. Hansen made a sales trip to snowy Toronto to launch advertising to lure people to B.C. That effort is being revised with a series of interprovincial and international trips, because even if all 650,000 high school students graduate and go to work in B.C. from now to 2019, it won’t be enough to fill all the jobs on the horizon.

opinion ▼ FAITH TODAY
Humans may not be able to forgive hideous crime, but God can forgive TAYLOR FROM A4 victims: “Thirty years later he is the same sick, callous, remorseless monster he was in 1982.” Those two contrasting quotations reveal the clash between ideals and reality. The reality is that each parole hearing feels—in the words of a niece—“like another scab has been ripped off and we bleed again.” Thirty years has not softened the anger, the bitterness. But the ideal, as I understand the Christian faith in which I was reared, is forgiveness. Is what Shearing did forgivable? I can’t presume to judge those who judge Shearing so harshly. I’ve never been in their
situation. The Parole Board agreed with them. Shearing, they ruled, remains too great a risk to release into society. Students of comparative religions look for a dominant theme in each of the great religions: Judaism, obedience; Islam, submission; Christianity, forgiveness. Granted, the history of Christianity does not always support that characteristic. The Crusades were not particularly forgiving. Nor were the witch hunts, or the Inquisition. Although the Inquisition at least aimed at forcing its victims to repent, thus making them eligible for forgiveness. Personally, I do not believe that anyone
is ever beyond God’s forgiveness. Not even David Shearing. Theoretically, we should emulate God and forgive him too. But theory doesn’t cut it, when you’ve been cut to the heart. Genesis claims that humans were made in God’s image. Although I normally avoid taking the Bible literally, I think the wording is important. Humans were made in God’s image; God was not made in human image. The fact that humans may not be able to forgive a crime as hideous as Shearing’s doesn’t mean that God cannot forgive him. God is the ideal towards which humans aspire.
We need such an ideal, whether or not we can attain it. Without ideals, we sink into a morass of individual desires. My welfare trumps your welfare; I can squash you like a bug, and not care. Universal selfishness shatters unity. To counter that anarchy, every religion develops ideals. Sometimes they embody those ideals and give them a name. Like God. Or Krishna. Sometimes they turn those ideals into a philosophy rather than a being. However it’s done, we need those ideals. Especially when we fall short of them. To remind us of what we could be.

Gov’t seeking ideas for projects to connect youth to new jobs I ‘‘
recently received a note from Shelagh Turner, the dedicated and hard-working executive director for the Kelowna area branch of the Canadian Mental Health Association. “I wanted to send you a quick note to say thank you for the role you play in supporting the Summer Student jobs program,” Turner wrote. “We just said goodbye to Meghan, who just returned to school in Calgary. She assisted us with our reception and admin duties this past summer and was outstanding. “Without the financial assistance of the Service Canada program, we could not have afforded to hire anyone. Having her doing such an important job in reception gave us the opportunity to get some really critical administrative tasks completed that ultimately support our staff, clients and the community. “Each year we field over 10,000 calls and walk-in inquiries for information, services and support so our reception is a busy place.

Ron Cannan know that federal government programs like Canada Summer Jobs, supported by you the taxpayer, are working. For so many years the Canada Summer Jobs program has been a “foot in the door” to many a fulfilling career, while at the same time supporting the work of important community organizations and local small businesses. The fact is support for youth employment is needed more than ever. For youth in particular, this recession has not been kind. Their jobless rate rose significantly during the recession, and it’s still almost twice the national average. Yet, employers across this country are looking for workers. At the beginning of May, there were more than 258,000 job vacancies across Canada.

FOR YOUTH IN PARTICULAR, THIS RECESSION HAS NOT BEEN KIND. THEIR JOBLESS RATE ROSE SIGNIFICANTLY DURING THE RECESSION, AND IT’S STILL ALMOST TWICE THE NATIONAL AVERAGE.
It’s clear that we need to connect youth who are looking for employment with employers who are
looking for workers. But it’s also clear that in order to tap into the rich resource of our young people, we need to help them by developing their skills and matching them with available jobs more effectively. The federal government is trying to bridge that gap. Through Economic Action Plan 2012, the federal government recently announced that it is investing $50 million over two years to connect young Canadians with high demand jobs, matching approximately 3,000 young Canadians with jobs in areas where there is a clear need for workers.

Clark want to open up lines of communication with voters of B.C. BARRY GERDING Premier Christy Clark appears to be fed up with politicians and bureaucrats, and wants to start engaging in conversation with voters directly about the future direction of our province. Clark said being confined to the working world of Victoria stifled by politicians, bureaucrats, lobbyists and pundits leaves voters out of the political discourse. “That’s how we ended up with the HST,� Clark said on Thursday during a media scrum following the opening of a new medical health sciences building on the UBC Okanagan campus. (See story page A3.) “We need to break out of the cocoon that exists in Victoria where you come up with policies and don’t tell anyone about it outside of Victoria, so we don’t keep making the same kind of stupid mistakes.� Clark said her five years as a radio talk show host taught her of the disconnect that exists between politicians and the voters. “We need to talk, listen and act on what voters tell us,� Clark said.
Clark was under fire last week on two fronts. One was for cancelling the regularly scheduled fall session of the legislature, and the other was for comments she made in an interview at the end of the spring legislative session in May that were published in a National Post column last week. In that column, she is quoted as describing the legislature as “a sick culture,� saying further that “All they can think about is government and there are no real people in Victoria, and you get captured by this inside-the-beltway debate, and it’s really unhealthy.� Clark told the media here in Kelowna last Thursday that she might have chosen different words, but didn’t back down from the intent behind her remarks. “People out there have some great ideas, and government has to take the time to listen,� she said. Her comments drew an immediate response from the NDP on Thursday afternoon, as NDP house leader John Horgan said her comments about Victoria’s “sick culture� were unwarranted. “The premier’s offensive comments

He and his brother were extremely underweight when they ďŹ rst came to us but we have fed them 4 small meals a day, so they have slowly gained weight and are almost up to their recommended weight. It would be ideal if Cooper and his brother (Bentley) could go to the same home together but we are realistic that we just want them to go to the best home possible, be it together or seperate.

regarding people that live in Victoria have gone from bad to worse,â€? Horgan said. “The premier is now blaming the HST on what she calls the sick people of Victoria. She should be apologizing for her comments, and finally taking responsibility for the Liberal government’s HST deception and millions of public dollars wasted on HST propaganda during their watch.â€? Clark also addressed the current stalemate in contract talks with BCGEU members, saying the zero wage increase mandate remains unchanged. “There is no more money,â€? Clark said regarding wage increases for unionized civil servants. “We can’t afford it. You just have to look at the private sector where people are taking wage rollbacks‌people in the public sector have to get used to that reality.â€? Clark added that any efficiencies found in government departments means savings that will be put towards wage increases for staff. But she reiterated, “it’s not going to cost the taxpayer one pennyâ€? extra regarding a contract settlement with the BCGEU.
Canstruction building a base It starts with one can of food and continues with each donation to help neighbours and nourish the community’s quality of life. It’s with that philosophy that the third annual Canstruction design and sculpture competition using donated cans of food was launched by the Kelowna Rotary Club last week. The Canstruction event will take place Feb.
4 to 13 at Orchard Park Shopping Centre. The beneficiary is the Kelowna Community Food Bank and Salvation Army. “2013 can be our best year yet. We are excited where we can go with this,� said Canstruction co-chair James Kay. Vonnie Lavers, executive director of the Kelowna food bank, said the food bank assists 30,000 people annually,
with about one-third of those being children. “It is a continuous effort to do the work that we do,� Lavers said. Organizers have 16 teams either confirmed or expressing interest in competing in 2013 Canstruction.

How one wrong step can lead to long-term problems O
ne of the most common injuries out there is an ankle sprain. I’m sure almost everyone at some point in their lives has taken that one wrong step and has felt the ‘pop’ and pain that comes with turning your ankle. The swelling in the ankle after an injury seems to take forever to go away and often your ankle never quite feels the same or in the very least can cause nagging problems for months. In this column I am going to explain the steps you can take to avoid suffering long-term after that one wrong step. A number of years ago the common response to treating ankle sprains
Graham Gillies
Keeping You Fit was to put the ankle in a cast for four to six weeks. If someone twisted (sprained) their ankle the thought process was that we needed to keep the ankle from moving so that the injured ligaments could heal properly. Unfortunately what happened to the ankle
with this type of treatment was that it would become extremely stiff and weak. This stiffness and weakness would take months to recover from so medical professionals began to think that there must be a better way of dealing with such a common injury. Fast forward to the present and instead of putting someone in a cast we have gone to the opposite end of the spectrum and many people who have an ankle sprain are told not to seek therapy but instead to ‘walk it off ’—with the idea that getting back to normal as quickly as possible is the answer. This strategy will work with minor sprains where you can put
weight on your foot right away and where there is very minimal swelling. The more pain and swelling in your ankle and the less comfortable it is to put weight on after an injury, the more serious the sprain. Unfortunately with more serious ankle sprains time does not heal all, and if left untreated you have a very real chance of suffering from long term issues including repetitive sprains and ongoing tendonitis. In fact, one study that followed people who had suffered a more serious sprain actually found that two years later, over half of the people in the study still complained of significant limits with their ankle.
So what should you do if you have a more serious ankle sprain? Firstly, it is usually a good idea to visit your medical doctor to see if an X-ray of your ankle is needed. After ensuring you have not broken anything, it is important for the first two to three weeks to avoid re-injuring your ankle. Don’t just sit around at home on the couch though, as getting movement in the ankle early on is extremely important in speeding up recovery. Early movement (within the first few days) helps to prevent stiffness, decrease swelling and limit muscle weakening. Putting weight on your ankle (as long as it causes
only mild pain) as early as possible is also important. Using an ankle brace can help to put weight through the ankle and is often a better option than using crutches. Weight bearing will ‘wake up’ the muscles thus limiting weakening. Remember to also follow the acronym RICE: Rest (protect your ankle but make sure to start moving it), Ice (15 minutes two to three times/day during the first week), Compression (tensor bandages work well) and Elevation (make sure your ankle is above the level of your heart). Decreasing the swelling as quickly as possible is very important in order to get back the
strength and movement. After the first seven to 10 days of following these tips it is then a good idea to see a health care professional specializing in these injuries in order to ensure that you are doing everything you can to get your ankle back to normal as quickly as possible.

â–ź LIVING WELL
Health tips for your whole life: The dirt on organic produce ROSE SONEFF Investing in your health doesn’t heed to break the bank. Healthy eating does not need to be a budgetbreaking task requiring frequent visits to specialty grocery stores. Say goodbye to expensive trendy products and say hello to these easyto-follow steps that will keep both your health and your budget in check.
PLAN AHEAD Preparing meals on a budget and shopping successfully requires planning ahead. Making a grocery list will keep you focused on what you need and minimize unnecessary purchases. Grocery stores are set up to trigger you to impulse buy, so it is valuable to identify what you need before you enter the store. A deal isn’t a deal if you don’t need what you buy. It is important to recognize prices will vary from store to store. Monitor the different stores in your area and
select the place that has the best prices for most of the items on your list. Delay purchasing the remaining, non-essential items on your list until you are at a store with more reasonable prices. It is worthwhile to check online or in the newspaper for specials and coupons because many items have a regular cycle of going on sale. The kitchen is another place where planning will help you stay within your budget. Prepare a large meal and use
reusable containers to ensure leftovers can become lunches and snacks on the days to follow. Saving leftovers doesn’t mean you need to eat the same meal twice— dinner from the previous night can be an excellent filling in a wrap or topping on a salad. These strategies minimize waste and eliminate the need to eat out and spend extra money.
BUY IN SEASON Buying fruits and vegetables when in sea-
son is a great way to boost your nutrient intake and slash your grocery bill. For example, a bunch of carrots from your local farmer may be cheaper than a bag of baby carrots that have been pre-chopped, packaged and imported from another country. If your favourite foods only grow during certain seasons, try buying in bulk, and freezing them so you have them on hand year round. Adding seasonal vegetables that you may be unfamil-
iar with to a recipe may increase the flavour and decrease the price. For example, try using julienne turnip or rutabaga strips in coleslaw.
PROTEIN ALTERNATIVES Sources of protein are often the most expensive component when it comes to meal planning. Seeking out affordable alternatives such as beans and canned fish which can satisfy both your appetite and wallet. Along with other important nutrients, beans

opinion ▼ RESPONSE TO CANNAN
Where there is political comment there is sure to be spin to follow To the editor: It’s appropriate for MP Ron Cannan to announce an injection of $50 million into two Youth Employment Strategy programs. (Gov’t Seeking Ideas For Projects To Connect Youth To New Jobs, page
A5.) He admits that youth unemployment is high, “almost twice the national average.” Only, that’s not true. August data show that at 14.8 per cent, the youth unemployment rate was more than twice the national average of 7.3 per
cent. You have to admit, there’s a difference between almost twice and more than twice. Whenever Cannan sprinkles labour force data around, whether the numbers are right or really not right, you can be sure spin will
follow. In his column (also published Sept. 20 in the Capital News) he tells us that youth unemployment is high, “yet” at the beginning of May, there were more than 258,000 job vacancies in Canada. He portrays the un-
employment problem as being “a gap” that can be bridged by connecting unemployed youth to available jobs, while developing their skills and employability. The injection of monies into the programs will try to bridge that gap, “match-
ing approximately 3,000 young Canadians with jobs in areas where there is a clear need for workers.” It sounds like a laudable proposition until you do the math. At the beginning of May, there were 394,200 youth who

were unemployed. Forgoing any need to bridge a gap, there were already too many youth to fill those 258,000 available jobs, and that’s to say nothing of the other j 976,400 unemployed Canadians who also would have been com- T peting for those jobs. Altogether, there were more than a million too W many unemployed to fill w those jobs. Since May, youth unemployment has climbed by 22,600 to 416,800. If 3,000 unemployed youth were hired today, that would represent only slightly more than onehalf of one per cent of unemployed youth suddenly having jobs and futures. There are two problems with the message Cannan delivers. First, the news is hardly anything to write home about. Economist Andrew Jackson said in June of this year, when things were marginally better: “I am struck by the very small scale of government interventions—just 1.5 per cent of the 15-24 age group benefit from the job subsidies provided through the federal Youth Employment Strategy.” Second, Cannan has been putting political j spin on issues all summer long—it’s a chronic and unsavoury problem. His back-to-back statements, “Our government is committed to supporting our young people because we recognize how vital their abilities are to Canada’s long-term growth, competitiveness and overall prosperity” and “Today’s youth are tomorrow’s workforce, so by investing in them we are investing in Canada,” are slogans devoid of any honesty at all. Rather than throwing youth under the bus, the government ought to do as economist Angella MacEwen suggests: create a substantial youth employment strategy, and “work with employers and educators to ensure there are enough spaces to provide youth T with the skills required toW innovate and compete.” Andrew Jackson says w that we can create jobs for youth “if we expand w spaces in those apprenticeship, college and university programs which w

opinion ▼ OKANAGAN CENTRE GREENSPACE
Why would council even debate public park clean up To the editor: I read with great interest the comments made by councillors regarding the clean up of the Okanagan Centre Greenspace, a unique and precious jewel in our community and our region. (Public Trail No Place to Keep Privat Property, Sept. 12 Lake Country Calendar) What I found most interesting was that there was any debate at all. This beautiful section of shoreline has been littered with personal storage units, decking, carpet, tables, chairs, boats,
sheds, old tires, campers and other miscellaneous pieces of human detritus for decades. For certain councillors to suggest that a community initiative, unanimously supported and brought forward by the District Parks and Recreation Committee, to clean up this area for the benefit of all community members, as well as wildlife, is “draconian” is an affront to democracy and an insult to those of us who support the preservation of public space for public use.
Train youths to work in fields where there are jobs LETTER FROM A8 lead to genuine employment opportunities. For example, few electricians or physiotherapists are unemployed, but there is a long waiting list to get into training programs.” I will keep saying it as long as it needs to be said: Canadians need jobs, not political spin, and we need those jobs now. (Canadian corporations are sitting on cash assets of $525 billion, having received corporate tax cuts of 26 per cent beginning in 1960, amounting to $52 billion per year. They need to pony up and invest in this country and its people.) Canadian workers also need relaxed EI eligibility requirements and extended benefit periods until required jobs materialize. (There was $57 billion in the EI fund until the government raided it of all but $2 billion in 2010. That’s a problem Canadians should insist that this government address.) And we need the legislation revoked that allows employers to pay Temporary Foreign Workers up to 15 per cent less than Canadian workers in the same jobs, thereby making foreign workers more attractive to employers, and driving down wages for all workers. Dianne Varga Kelowna
draconian? draconian is an adjective meaning “great severity,” where small offences had heavy punishments. So, let me get this straight: Coun. Gambell says that asking trespassers to remove their personal belongings from the beach within six months or it’ll be removed for them is heavy handed? Really? Well OK then let’s not. Instead, perhaps I’ll set up a storage shed down at Swalwell Park. After all, it’s really inconvenient for me to
carry all of my stuff from the car all the time. Or, maybe I’ll park my camper down on the new tennis courts—it’d be handier access to my fridge. Or, how about I build myself a nice private dock up on the pond at The Lakes? Such thoughts are preposterous. Any reasonable person can see that. Yet, somehow, our two old-time council members, Coun. Gambell and Mayor Baker, seem to think that individuals who have stored
their stuff on the beach in Okanagan Centre should be permitted some form of squatters’ rights; that because they’ve left their stuff there for a long time, they should be left alone to do what they like. Perhaps I wouldn’t find that so objectionable if I didn’t see new items added every year— another boat, another shed, another dock/sitting platform, another swim dock with slide, new stairs excavated into

Students should plan for careers where job growth is anticipated N ‘‘ ot too many people are interested in pursuing a field if there is very little job growth. A perfect example of this is printing. With the advent of high end colour photocopying and desktop publishing, the number of people required to run printing presses has declined significantly in the last 15 years. So it’s important when you are deciding on a career that you look at the actual job growth and potential for fulltime employment for at least 10 years. This is the type of information that came out of the British Columbia Jobs and Investment Board interim report. This report looked at a number of areas. These included forestry, mining, natural gas and liquefied natural gas, agrifoods, tourism, transportation (ports, marines, aerospace), and international education. Each of these was assessed based on the role they currently play in our provincial economy. Along with this the board made a number of recommendations and some of these are tied to education. For example, since 2012 the min-
ONE OF (MINING’S) BIGGEST CHALLENGES IS TO EDUCATE AND ATTRACT SKILLED TRADES.
School’s In
Jane Muskens ing sector has increased its production value by 20 per cent to $8.6 billion and provides jobs to more than 28,000 people. One of their biggest challenges is to educate and attract skilled trades and technical workers. The board recommends that they work with the province’s Resource Training Organization to define and promote workforce development and needs at the same time looking at training plans to help workers transition into the mining industry. Similar strategies are being proposed for the liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry which is expecting a 50 per cent increase in production by 2020. The province is planning to open B.C.’s first LNG plant in two years.
Closer to home there is growth in the agrifood industry with B.C. now home to 10,000 acres of grapes with more than 200 wineries. It is expected that this industry, coupled with tourism could provide a large number of jobs both in the Okanagan and outside. Specialized training in this industry is required in both viticulture and hospitality to name a few. With the controversy over the Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline our transportation industry has had a lot of media attention these days. This industry includes ports, marinas and aerospace. The Port of Metro Vancouver contributes $10.5 billion to Canada’s GDP, and employs over 129,000 people. Although the aerospace industry is small-
A
er, it is expected to grow significantly in the next five to 10 years. For the last five years Okanagan College has offered the Aircraft Maintenance Engineer (AME) M- License and recently the Aircraft Maintenance Engineer Category “S� (Structures) certificate. Both of these program attract a large number of students. And finally, international education is another contributor to the B.C. economy. International students not only study and live in Canada, but they con- w tribute to the economy through tuition, job creation and other revenues. They are also a great source for dealing with the skilled labour shortage. All of these areas have the potential of boosting the economy, but they can’t do it with just technology and government support. It is the people of B.C. who need to step up and look at these growth areas for gainful long-term employment and be part of a growing economy—not a retracting one.

Arrested drunk drivers don’t account for those who have not been caught yet
A
six-year-old boy is killed and his mother’s leg is broken. A 21-year-old man is on trial. He is charged with offences of drunk and dangerous driving causing death and injury. My son, Caden, is a six-year-old. A Grade 1 student at Rose Valley Elementary School, he has started to learn karate and how to play the piano this year. My advance confession: I would behave irrationally if anyone touched a hair on that boy’s head. If it was a jury trial, I wouldn’t write this column for fear that someone on the jury might disregard the judicial direction to stay away from the local newspaper and be poisoned by my opinions. I figure it was an excellent choice to go without a jury on this one. Hang him. Hang him high. I want to see his legs twitching. Oh right, we don’t get that satisfaction in Canada. Who was the bleeding heart who did away
Paul Hergott Achieving Justice with capital punishment anyway? There’s no mistaken identity in this case. We know who did it. At least put him away for life, with no chance of parole for 25 years. A life for a life. He needs to be taught a lesson. He needs to pay for the horrendous harm that he has caused. The court needs to send a message. This is what happens when you kill children. I think about that boy. A stolen life. I wonder what kind of man he might have become. I wonder what joy he would have brought to the world. We can’t bring him back. Might

his death somehow bring about some good? A young man rotting in jail? Is our collective grief and anger appropriately directed at that young man? Of course it is. He killed the boy. Full stop. Let’s be fair for just a moment. What did the young man really do? According to media reports, there were blood alcohol readings after the event indicating that the young man had consumed a quantity of alcohol before driving. Who knows what the evidence will show about his blood alcohol level at the moment that boy was hit. According to media reports, the Crown evidence will be that he had been travelling approximately 60 km/h. A witness will appar-
ently testify that there was nothing untoward about his driving leading up to the moment, at 10:30 p.m., when the young boy was struck as the boy was led, jaywalking, across Harvey Avenue by his mother. How many times during the last year have you driven after you had consumed a quantity of alcohol? How many times during the last year have you been in the company of others and stood by while they drove after having consumed a quantity of alcohol? According to a media story dated May 1, 2012, the Kelowna RCMP had taken 950 impaired drivers off our roads in the previous year. Of course, that’s the tip of the ice-

PUBLIC NOTICE
RECALL AND INITIATIVE ACT
This notice is published pursuant to section 4 of the Recall and Initiative Act. Approval in principle has been granted on an application for an initiative petition. The petition will be issued to proponent Dana Larsen on Monday, November 19, 2012 and signature sheets must be submitted to the Chief Electoral Officer by Monday, February 18, 2013. The Title of the Initiative is: An initiative to amend the Police Act. Summary of Initiative: The initiative draft Bill entitled, “Sensible Policing Act� proposes to amend the Police Act to no longer use provincial police resources on the enforcement of current laws in relation to simple possession and use of cannabis by adults. The draft law would prohibit the use of provincial police resources for this purpose, would require police to report in detail to the Minister of Justice any actual use of resources for this purpose and why it was necessary, and require the Minister to publish that report. The Bill also proposes that the Province would call upon the Federal Government to repeal the federal prohibition on cannabis, or give British Columbia an exemption, such that British Columbia is able to tax and regulate cannabis similar to the regulation of alcohol and tobacco. As well it proposes that British Columbia shall establish a Provincial Commission to study the means and requirements necessary for the province to establish a legal and regulated model for the production and use of cannabis by adults. Last, the Bill would make non-lawful possession and use of cannabis by minors an offence similar to possession and use of alcohol.
Initiative Advertising: Individuals or organizations who sponsor initiative advertising, other than the proponent and registered opponents, must register with the Chief Electoral Officer before they conduct or publish initiative advertising. Registration applications are available from Elections BC. Who May Sign the Petition: Registered voters as of Monday, November 19, 2012 may sign the initiative petition.

How many drunks drive themselves home each night? HERGOTT FROM A13 berg. If 950 were caught, how many others drove impaired without any consequences? One United States statistic (I couldn’t find one for Canada) is that one arrest is made for every 27,000 miles driven drunk.
That young man isn’t the villain. You are. We are. We all are. Why are we choosing not to take a stand against the impaired driving that is all around us? Why are we leaving it up to the police to chisel chips off the iceberg? Should that young man spend time in jail?
If so, should you and I join him? This column provides general information about injury claims. It is not a substitute for retaining a lawyer to provide legal advice specific to your case. Paul Hergott is a lawyer at Hergott Law in West Kelowna. paul@hlaw.ca

A plan is needed for public spaces tion, initiated by these same council members, draconian? Most would say that the affected ‘super senior,’ in the early stages of dementia, was adequately warned, so it’s not draconian. Arbitrary and discriminatory maybe, but not draconian. Meanwhile, in the rest of the country‌ Sept. 15 - 23 marked the Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup (shorelinecleanup.ca) where more than 45,000 Canadians at more than 1,500 sites participated in cleaning up local shorelines. In fact, our “progressiveâ€? neighbours to the south rounded up 400 volunteers to clean 19 sites. But here in Lake Country, these two council members are
LETTER FROM A9 a beautiful bank. Much of the items are used only for two months in the summer, often by “summer residents� and left the other 10 sitting as eyesores in the public space. At times, these items are blown down the beach to tangle themselves in waterlines, mooring buoys and nesting areas. And, it is doubly exasperating when one considers that one (that’s right, just one) individual was fined $1,000 along with the cost of destruction and removal, attached to his property taxes, for ‘trespass’ on that same beach where no fewer than 45 current incidences of trespass exist. Was that ac-
so concerned about protecting the interests of a few of their old friends, of protecting the interests who have lived here longer, they completely miss what their own constituents are saying and what the rest of the country is up to. Do we need public facilities down at Okanagan Centre? I think we do—picnic tables, park benches, maybe rentable boat storage or a canoe/kayak/sailboat coop facility, public swim docks—they are all possibilities. But the initiative needs to be driven by a plan which captures the input of the whole community, not just those who have the cheek to construct and leave things in public space.

All ideas should be considered by the Parks and Recreation Committee and council and, with a plan in hand arrived at through public consultation, those interested can contribute meaningfully to legacy infrastructure that the community has identified is of value. As a new member to the Parks and Recreation Committee, I’d like to hear the community’s ideas on the rehabilitation of this space. In the meantime, mark your calendar for Saturday, March 2, 2013—we’re looking for a volunteer clean up crew. Denise Fallis, Lake Country

Wednesday, September 26, 2012 Lake Country Calendar
Help us Name “Old Hwy 97” The new Hwy 97 construction between Winfield and Oyama is over 50% complete and the road that is currently Hwy 97 will become a local road under the jurisdiction of the District of Lake Country. The BC Ministry of Transportation has advised the District that highway signage will show “Old Hwy 97” as the formal name unless a road name is provided. We need your help to find the perfect name for this special section of road through Lake Country so that it is memorable and relevant for tourism and way-finding. Council will be making the final decision on the road name in November 2012. Road naming is a unique way of recognizing the natural attributes, flora and fauna, wildlife and historical influences of the community. It is important that the historical significance and legacies of individuals and pioneers of the District of Lake Country be acknowledged. Additionally, the proposed names shall be referred to utility agencies, 911 Dispatch, and neighboring jurisdictions in order to avoid duplication and conflict – which is standard practice for all road naming in the Okanagan. Individuals and community groups have already suggested some names over the past few years and within the process of updating the District’s road naming policy. If you would like to support one of the following previously suggested names: Thomas Wood Drive; Lake Country Drive; Lakeside Way; Waterfront Avenue; Kokanee Parkway, please vote in the poll at the bottom right of the webpage www.lakecountry.bc.ca or suggest another name via email to admin@lakecountry.bc.ca. Please include your name and contact information and the reason why you think the name should be used. There will be a prize draw from among all contributors/supporters that provide contact information. Deadline: October 15, 2012.
Okanagan Centre Rd W & Pixton Rd Greenspace Clean up In support of a recommendation made by the Parks & Recreation Advisory Committee, Council is requesting owners of private structures, boats and furniture to remove these items from the public greenspace by February 28, 2013. Operating pumphouses are exempt. The public trails and foreshore greenspace should be safe, tidy, and available to all residents and visitors.
