She became the BC Liberal (local) area. Certainly by talking candidate earlier in the year, after to people, there are a couple of really good documents that have been put together on rural British Columbia and lots of people in the Grand Forks and Christina Lake area that were involved in those,” Larson said. “I spoke to the people who are looking at the community forest and woodlots and there seems to be some potential there provided that they can get some of the regulations shifted in their direction. I’m hopeful there is something I can move forward for everybody,” she said.

Hancheroff conceded to Larson late Tuesday night and said it was a learning experience. “I’d like to thank all the people who took the time to listen to me and talk to me throughout the month of the campaign,” Hancheroff said. “I felt there were a lot of important things I learned from this scenario from talking to people.” “I felt I did the best I possibly could with the folks that I work with. They did a fantastic job,” he said.

The Fun Spot

Quote of the Week: In films murders are always very clean. I show how difficult it is and what a messy thing it is to kill a man. ~ Alfred Hitchcock (1899 - 1980) Joke of the Week: A man and his wife are dining at a table in a plush restaurant, and the husband keeps staring at an old drunken lady swigging her gin as she sits alone at a nearby table, until the wife asks, “Do you know her?” “Yes,” sighs the husband, “She’s my ex-wife. She took to drinking right after we divorced seven years ago, and I hear she hasn’t been sober since.” “My God!” says the wife, “Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?”

Fortis bringing “diet” SASCHA PORTEOUS Grand Forks Gazette Reporter

If ratepayers don’t clean up their own yards, then council is going to have to create a policy that allows the city to get involved, said Mayor Nipper Kettle. “If people don’t want to clean up properties by themselves, especially the ones that are on the main drag off the highway… then there is definitely going to have to be a policy come forward,” said Kettle. Councillors agreed that a policy needs to be set in place and one of the suggestions mentioned fining people for having an “unsightly” property. “We need to have a policy in place to act upon,” said Councillor Barry Noll. “I think it’s just getting out of hand.” City staff will be looking into the matter and bringing it back to council for further discussion. City debates chickens within city limits City council is pecking at the idea of allowing residents to raise chickens within city limits. “I’ve had many discussions with people that already have chickens within our city and we are living with them already, we just haven’t made a bylaw yet,” Noll said. Noll is concerned that allowing chickens to be raised within city limits could lead to controversy as people have also asked about the inclusion of ducks, geese and turkeys. “It’s going to have to be well thought out,” he said. Kettle agreed that if a bylaw were created it would need to be “picked apart” at council. He asked the city administrator to look into drafting a bylaw to bring back to council.

COUNCIL REPORT

FortisBC is bringing its “famous” Rossland Energy Diet to the Boundary, which was created to try and reduce residents’ energy consumption. The Rossland project was wildly successful, according to Patricia Dehnel of FortisBC, as 22 per cent of residents participated and of those, 80 per cent did some form of energy upgrades to their homes. “What was really impressive is that $1.6 million was spent in the local economy over that winter in purchasing some of the energy efficient upgrades, said Dehnel at Greenwood City Council on Monday. Fortis will be launching the program on June 18 with an outreach event in Grand Forks. Dehnel explained that registering costs $60 dollars and comes with a certified energy adviser assessing ones home. Rebates upwards of $6,000 are included in the program. “There will also be an information sessions for the trades, the one in Grand Forks is on the fifth and that is to invite the trades people to breakfast to talk about the program because of course they will be busy,” she said.

Junky yards could get fined Residents with “junk “ on their property could be hit with a fine as city council looks at ways to try and clean up Greenwood.

Marshall Lake as it appears now after being partially drained.

Marshall Lake “sad sight” Marshall Lake is a sad sight, says area resident Al Donnelly. Donnelly is a regular contributor to the paper, writing the Blasts From the Past column. He also sent in a couple of pictures of Marshal Lake taken on April 25. “I was disheartened with the way the ‘new’ lake looks,” remarked Donnelly in his email. “Really sad. The bald eagles were eating all the dead fish. The lake probably froze all the way to the bottom. “Maybe we should have a contest to re-name the slough,” he ponders. “Mr. Marshall would not want his name associated with the place. Good thing he is dead. Must be rolling in his grave.” Donnally’s email prompted the Times

to contact the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations to inquire about the 2013 work schedule for the lake. Public Affairs Officer Brennan Clarke said that decommissioning is scheduled to take place in August and September 2013. This will consist of breaching the dam later this summer, he said. Clarke said that while contracts have not been awarded, the province is in the process of issuing a request for proposals that outlines two decommissioning options. He said the ministry has dedicated funding to this project. When asked if the provincial election

could alter plans for decommissioning the dam, Clarke replied that it is not appropriate for staff to speculate on the potential impact of the election. “However, we can reaffirm that the decision to decommission the dam at Marshall Lake was made in the best interest of public safety,” he said. “Without either decommissioning or a major and costly upgrade, the dam at Marshall Lake represents a significant risk to property and people.” Clarke confirmed that there are ongoing negotiations with neighbouring property owners, but declined to comment further until those discussions have been completed.

Get ready to ride this weekend Submitted

Once again the horses, riders and cards are coming out on Saturday, May 19 at the Rock Creek Fairgrounds. Registration for the Rock Creek Poker Ride will be held from 8 to 9 a.m. The poker ride starts at 9:30 a.m. Along with local families and Horse 4-H members, riders from throughout the Boundary and Okanagan will be participating in this spectacular ride. Water will be provided on site for the horses and Miller Springs bottled water and a muffin/goodie will be provided

free for the riders prior to the start. There will be five stations to collect cards, the first being at the camp after registration, three locations on the trail and the last card being drawn upon return to camp. The Kettle River Lions will be providing burgers and hot dogs for lunch at a nominal fee. Lunch will start at 11 a.m. and you don’t have to be a rider to enjoy lunch. After lunch, when all the riders have returned and the dust has settled, awards will be given for the highest poker hands. Following that, weather permitting,

there will be a sing-along, music provided by Wilf (Carter) Carlton and a chance for making new friends and renewing old friendships. So partner, saddle up your hoss; if you don’t own one, borrow one or buy a poker hand at camp, then join the fun at the end of the trail, deal’em and weep. You don’t have to ride a horse to buy a poker hand. The event is sponsored by the Rock Creek and District Fair along with Bill Baird, RDKB Area E director. All proceeds will be donated to the upgrade of the fair grounds.

A new wave of insurance

How often have we been told of the importance of buying life insurance to protect loved ones should we die prematurely? To many that’s good advice. But now we are being told by insurance companies and agents to buy insurance in case we keep living. It’s called critical illness insurance (CII) and as you might have guessed, selling this relatively new product is proving to be no less of a challenge than selling life insurance at the beginning of the century. What exactly is critical illness insurance? Basically it’s an insurance plan that can help people who are diagnosed with any one of 24 covered serious illnesses. People who find out they have a critical illness will need money for a host of difficulties and necessities that might arise, such as special medical treatment, renovating their home for wheelchair access, help around their home, even paying down debt or taking a much-needed vacation. In simple terms, consider it protection for the living. That’s because you don’t need to die in order to collect the benefit. Here’s how critical illness insurance works. You buy a policy worth, let’s say, $100,000. You pay a monthly premium, just like life insurance. Then tragedy strikes. After various humbling tests, doctors tell you that you’re suffering from one of several serious illnesses that are covered by the policy. You’ve paid your premiums and kept your policy in force, so you’re entitled to make a claim to receive the $100,000 lump sum benefit. Most insurance companies offering CII have basic plans covering cancer, heart attack, stroke, and coronary artery bypass surgery. In the health world, these are known as the “Big 4”. More extensive plans offer additional coverage for Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, kidney failure, major organ transplant, blindness, deafness, Multiple Sclerosis, ALS or other motor neuron diseases, occupational HIV, coma, benign brain tumour, paralysis, loss of limbs, and severe burns. The grim reality is that critical illness is more common than you may think: • One in four Canadians will contract a critical illness by the age of 65 (Heart and Stroke Foundation, 2001). • The average age of people who make claims on their policies is 47 (Munich Reinsurance Company, 2000). • 41% of men and 38 % of women will develop some form of cancer in their lifetimes (Canadian Cancer Society, 2002). Critical illness products haven’t been around that long, but the demand is growing as more people become aware that it is available. A good example of where CII may become increasingly important is in the area of heart attacks. Eighty per cent of heart attack patients survive when they’re admitted

to hospital, but only 45 per cent will be able to return to work (Heart and Stroke Foundation, 2001). If a person suffers a heart attack, it’s potentially devastating not only to the person, but also to that person’s family because of its serious impact on income and savings. Simply put, their finances will be stretched if they can’t return to work. Could it happen to you? People are more likely to have a critical illness by age 75 than they are to suffer a premature death. The focus should be on recovery, not worrying about their financial situation. A CII policy can alleviate some of the financial concerns and allow you to concentrate on getting better. What about cost? Because you are more likely to get a critical illness than die prematurely, insurance companies must make sure they’re charging enough to cover their risk. Premiums depend on the applicants’ health, the face amount they want, and the age at which they apply. Many applicants are surprised when they get a risk rating. Being overweight, high blood pressure, and a family health history of heart disease will all contribute to a higher rating, thereby increasing the premium. A rating can also be an early warning sign - a possible opportunity for you to improve your health. For example, if you’re rated because of excess weight, shedding the weight will decrease the risk of a critical illness as well as your premium. The first step you should take if you’re interested in finding out more about CII is talking to an insurance advisor. Your advisor can explain the definitions of critical illnesses, and tell you what’s included in the policy and how much your premium will be. Everyone has stories about close family, friends, or associates who could have used the benefit this insurance provides. This product addresses an obvious need and makes good common sense. It’s insurance for the living. Commissions, trailing commissions, management fees and expenses all may be associated with mutual fund investments. Please read the prospectus before investing. Mutual fund securities are not insured or guaranteed, their values change frequently and past performance may not be repeated.

Students prepare for grad

Thursday, May 16, 2013 Boundary Creek Times

In conversation with members of the Class of 2013

Introducing

Christian Beck Christian Beck has two goals for the summer after his graduation from BCSS. The first is to work in Osoyoos until September and then figure out what to do from there. His second goal is also his biggest dream - to pursue a career in music. This summer he and Clint Elliot plan to continue to write for their band, with the hopes of recording this fall. “We have been working very hard at this at every chance we’ve gotten, and we both hope to have careers in music in the future,” says Christian. “If everything went perfect, I would be in a touring band playing to thousands of adoring fans every night. Sadly, this probably won’t happen.” So his backup plan is to get a Bachelors of Science, “After taking a year off to kind

of get my ducks in a row, so to speak.” He admits that he “coasted” in his grade 10 year. But he turned that around and is proud of his academic record in his final two years at BCSS. “I’m reaching as far as I can to get my work accomplished, doing my homework when it’s assigned, studying for tests. I realized I should put in more effort in order to see better results.” Better results is what he attained too – all A’s in grade 11 and 12. “I am going out of high school with a way better work ethic than I came in here with.” Christian says he’s good with computers, has great interpersonal skills and is a quick learner. His work experience includes helping Mr. and Mrs. Corbett build their house from the spring or 2009 through the fall of 2011. He has certifications in Occupational First Aid Level 1 and Transportation Endorsement and, when he has finished Fire Suppression 12 he’ll have a nice package of other certifications as well. Christian’s love of music blossomed about two years ago. He learned to play guitar from his uncle and by self-study -

Introducing

James Hunter

James Hunter doesn’t hesitate when asked what his short-term goals are. “Simple – I want to finish doing my apprenticeship in heavy duty mechanics at Thompson River University and find a local good paying job,” he told BCSS Career Counsellor Pamela Storie. “I hope to be well on my way to having enough money to put a down payment on a house. I plan on getting there by being self-motivated and focused. I’ll try to put everything else out of mind for a while.” This summer he plans to continue working at Osoyoos Larose, where he has been employed for the past four years. He will save money for college, take a few trips and volunteer his time at mechanic shops to get some hours in. In September he will concentrate on his courses at

reading books and researching online. “I really think that we are good. It would be really nice to pursue that as a career. I know that for a lot of people that doesn’t work out. But I definitely plan on pursuing it after high school.” Their band is named Slightly Warmer, something to watch for on the charts.

Thompson River, with the goal of getting his apprenticeship done by February. “My biggest long term goal would be to own my own ranch,” he says. “I think it would be great to maintain a big chunk of property. I would also like to own my own mechanics shop and be able to have people work for me. I will have to work hard to get there and I plan on working hard and making sacrifices in order to save enough to make this a reality.” James says he’s grown a lot since he came to BCSS from Penticton half way through Grade 8, “especially closer to the end here just kind of focusing on making money in the future.” His favourite classes were mechanics. “Valuable stuff that I would use in the future,” he explains. He’d like to live in the Dawson Creek – Golden area. “Just the peacefulness there, it’s out of the way and there is lots of work up there.” James says he likes outdoor activities too, so the area is a great fit. James has already been accepted at TRU, he even has his dorm room reserved. He’s definitely dialled in on his short and long-term goals.

New 236 area code in June

Grand Forks Gazette Staff

People getting a new landline or cellphone in Grand Forks, Christina Lake, Greenwood or other areas of B.C. in June might get a phone number with a 236 new area code. The move is attributed to the growing number of cellphone users and the fact the amount of available phone numbers is shrinking. As a result of this, some phone customers in B.C. may be issued the new 236 area code. The new area code covers the entire province and was approved by the Canadian Radio-tele-

vision and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to ensure residents and businesses have enough phone numbers. Customers who get a new phone number may be able to choose from existing 604, 778 or 250 area codes where enough of those numbers exist. If those options aren’t available the 236 number will be issued and geographic boundaries that govern long-distance calling will not affected. Plans for the new area code were announced in 2011 in response to the explosive growth in wireless device use. – With files from Jeff Nagel, Black Press

Solution is ours There are certain challenges that must be dealt with or they just blow up and get worse. Handling garbage and other things that attract bears is critically important. We call them problem bears – but in reality the problem is caused by the people and not the bears. Bears are hungry and if we put food out where they can get to it they will get into it. Bear attractants must be managed. Garbage should be stored in a secure building or bear-resistant container until collection day. Bins must be tightly closed too. Use common sense – a pickup with a canopy isn’t a secure bear-resistant container. Wash all bins that contain garbage. Used food containers being stored until recycling day should be cleaned. If you cannot store garbage securely, freeze smelly items and add to the bin only on the morning of collection. The key to a healthy compost is ensuring equal amounts of brown and green materials. Layer your greens, such as kitchen scraps and fresh grass clippings, with no more than 10 centimetres of browns, such as dried leaves, grasses, shredded newspaper and cardboard. Do not add fish, meat, fat, oils, unwashed eggshells or any cooked food to compost piles. Clean barbeques after use by burning off the grill entirely and remove and clean the grease trap after every use. Never leave a cooler outside unless it has been thoroughly cleaned. One thing that all these attractants have in common is that they are caused by humans – not by the bears. The solution begins with us. If we mess up the results can be devastating – a bear that becomes habituated to domestic garbage may have to be destroyed.
