Election results TOM FLETCHER More that 1.8 million people voted in the May 14 provincial election, for a turnout of 58 per cent of eligible voters, up from the all-time low of 51 per cent in 2009. The 2013 turnout rebounded to the same level as the 2005 election. Going back to the 1983 vote, more than 70 per cent of eligible voters cast ballots, but the turnout steadily declined after that to 55 per cent in 2001. The number of eligible voters has risen over the years with population growth. As a result, the B.C. Liberals got nearly 44,000 more votes this year than they did in 2009, with the NDP total increasing by 24,000. Overall, 161,000 more people voted in this election than four years ago. Elections BC completed its final count Wednesday, including 180,000 ballots cast by people outside their home constituencies. That was double the 2009 total for absentee ballots, and accounted for much of the increase in turnout over four years ago. Absentee ballots reversed one close result, giving NDP candidate Selina Robinson a 35-vote win over B.C. Liberal Steve Kim in Coquitlam-Maillardville. That result will be subject to a judicial recount, where a judge examines all 21,000 ballots to confirm the outcome. If the count is upheld, Robinson becomes the 34th NDP MLA, facing off against 49 B.C. Liberals in a legislature that has almost the same party division as in the past four years. Delta South independent Vicki Huntington and the B.C. Green Party’s Andrew Weaver in Oak Bay-Gordon Head round out the 85-seat legislature. In another close race, Saanich North and the Islands, NDP candidate Gary Holman extended his margin of victory to 163 votes once absentee ballots were added to the electionnight total that had him 50 votes ahead. Once the results are made official June 5, MLAs can be sworn in and Premier Christy Clark can announce her cabinet lineup. Clark will also reveal where she will seek a seat, having lost Vancouver-Point Grey to the NDP’s David Eby.

SLICE OF LIFE SHANNON McKINNON
“Ahoy!” This proposal was not as strange as it might seem. Ahoy was already in use as a nautical greeting and had been in common usage for at least a century longer than hello. Hi hadn’t even been invented yet. It appears it was Bell’s rival Thomas Edison who coined the term “hello” (which eventually turned into hi) as appropriate for phone usage. Edison may not have

ward! Twenty-five years after its invention I am still clueless in my starts and stops. And yes, I still email. In fact it’s worse than that. Not only do I never text, my cell phone still flips shut. Oh, the shame of it all! I admit I worry a bit about getting left behind…literally. That there will be a mass communication sent out warning about some crisis such as a meteorite heading our way and because I haven’t kept up with technology, I will be the only one that doesn’t hear about it. Everyone else will be at the special safe meeting place while I’m outside humming away and hilling potatoes. But I digress. For me the biggest problem with emails—or any digital communication I suppose—is in knowing
how to end them. Sincerely yours is far too formal, ditto for ‘Yours truly’ and although I like ‘Cheers’ whenever I use it I feel like a poser since it isn’t something I ever actually say. While Namaste, God Bless and Peace Out are all nice options, some people might get offended. It’s so hard to know. And of course unless it’s family or close friends ‘Love’ is way too personal. Mostly I use ‘Warmest regards’ since I think it’s kind of a hybrid of personal and formality, but even there I am not so sure. Some days I get so rattled I just sign my name at the end without any kind of gesture at all, but then I wonder if that comes across as rude. There are those who pull off ending emails with nothing more than the first letter of their name. I’ve tried that, but turns out I’m just not cool enough
to get comfortable with it. Sometimes not only do I not know how to end an email, but I don’t even know how to end the exchange. Once you’ve said what you need to say it seems like you should still acknowledge you received the last email, but if taken too far it can result in an endless succession of emails that consist of, “Thanks!” and then “Thank you!” followed by “Thank you too!” Maybe the person who came up with the protocol for that very first phone book with its initial 50 subscribers got it right. There is something to be said for a definitive “that is all”. That is all.

invented the phone, but apparently he had the satisfaction of inventing the greeting. For his part Bell refused to accept defeat and fall in with the crowd; a characteristic of most successful inventors. Instead he would continue to answer his phone with “Ahoy” for the rest of his life. Funny how things come about, isn’t it? Had Bell’s choice of greeting held as much sway as his invention, we could just as easily be greeting each other with a routine, “Ahoy, how are you?” But hello it was and is. As for ending the phone call, original protocol dictated when the telephone call had reached its conclusion the proper thing to say was, “that is all”.

Hello, hello, hello! Interesting how this common greeting wasn’t even recognized as a word until the early 1820s. And back then people used it as an exclamation rather than a salutation, as in “Hello, what do we have here?” Hello as a salutation came about during the late 1800s following the invention of the telephone. When the instrument rang people were unsure what to do after picking up the receiver so they tended to do nothing at all which meant the caller was usually greeted by silence. Since this was rather awkward, ideas were bandied about as suitable greetings. One early contender was “What is wanted?” Effective and no doubt better than silence, but not very friendly. The inventor of the gadget, Alexander Graham Bell, urged people to greet their callers with a hearty,

Egg, poultry and dairy farms build economies communities.” The survey, released at the annual Federation of Canadian Municipalities conference in Vancouver, involved in-depth interviews with mayors across the country, from small towns to the country’s largest cities, representing 25 per cent of the Canadian population. It is the largest survey of municipal leaders that Ipsos Reid has undertaken. Support for supply management was coast to coast, with Quebec and Nova Scotia municipal leaders stating the highest levels of support, with 57 per cent and 67 per cent strongly supporting supply management. Consumer research done earlier this year by EFC shows that 40 per cent of Canadians are aware of supply management. Of those who say they understood how it works, 71 per cent said they “strongly supported” it, citing the desire to buy eggs that are both local and of high quality, and to ensure farmers receive fair prices. When Canadians not familiar with the system were told about it, support for supply management increased. “There is a growing interest in food securi-
ty, food safety, and local food - and we have a great story to tell thanks to supply management,” adds Clarke. “This latest research confirms that consumers and political leaders stand firmly behind our mission of ensuring Canadians have a secure source of locally produced eggs, poultry and dairy products.” Eighty per cent of the mayors and reeves polled said that supply management is important to ensure the survival of Canada’s family farms; 71 per cent said that opening the borders to imports would put family farms in jeopardy. If the entry of foreign products resulted in lower prices paid to farmers, 74 per cent believe there is no guarantee retailers would pass along any savings to consumers. Other highlights of the mayors and reeves poll include: •Overall, 90 per cent of all respondents said supply management was important to their communities. Of those that said “very important,” support increased steadily going East,
from 33 per cent in the West to 67 per cent in the East. •50 per cent said they have supply managed industries in their community, with 90 per cent saying they were important to the municipality. •By region, 64 per cent of Ontario mayors and reeves said they had supply managed industries in their municipalities, ahead of Quebec at 59 per cent and the West at 44 per cent. •Virtually all mayors and reeves of mediumsized communities (pop. 5,000 to 50,000) with supply management industries said it was important, with 62 per cent saying very important.
About the Survey Ipsos Reid interviewed 124 mayors (or deputy mayors) and reeves in all provinces and territories by telephone between March 27 and April 26, 2013. The results have a margin of error of +/- 8.7 percentage points 19 times out of 20.

Spring Fire Safety
Many fires occur in spring and early summer when human activity increases. Grass burning and spring cleanup fires occasionally escape control and result in wildfires. When summer arrives, the number of people in the woods increases and as they travel, recreationalists can accidentally cause fires. The number of escaped fires resulting from backyard burning can be reduced by adhering to safe burning practices. People doing backyard burning must have hand tools, water and enough people on hand to keep the fire in check. Fires must not be lit or allowed to continue to burn when the wind is strong enough to cause sparks to be carried to other combustible material or when a notice banning or restricting the use of open fire is in effect. Grass fires are a major concern. Grass fires that get out of control can cause serious damage. People must remember to place a firebreak around the perimetre of the fire area. Fires can escape easily if a wind picks up. Fires that get away can quickly engulf fences, power poles and buildings and can also spread to neighbouring property or forested areas. Other prevention considerations: • Do not burn in windy conditions. • Do not discard smoking materials from vehicles, use interior ashtrays. • Lawn & farm equipment should have properly working spark arresters to prevent sparks from exiting through the exhaust pipes. • All Terrain Vehicles (ATVs) produce an enormous amount of heat and can ignite brush from their exhaust systems.

The advantages of choosing a Real Estate Chain to help you sell or purchase your home A real estate chain offer name recognition, sometimes better advertising support, standard forms and continuity. Chains offer at least a minimal standard of performance and acceptance, and in general agents tend to be well trained. When you list your home with a chain in one city, you can link another agent in the new city from the same chain. For instance, Sutton has a Referral Directory that supplies contact information for all Sutton offices and associates across Canada. The true value of the real estate chain is in the degree of order, homogeneity, and professionalism.

The vast majority of mayors and reeves across Canada believe their local egg, dairy and poultry farmers play a central role in their economy and community. They cited the importance of ensuring their citizens have access to fresh, safe and affordable food and that farmers get fair, stable producer prices. The Ipsos Reid poll, which interviewed 124 municipal leaders across all provinces and territories, shows that 53 per cent of mayors and reeves said they were familiar with supply management. Once the system was explained, 87 per cent overall expressed their support, with 40 per cent saying they were very supportive. “Municipal leaders coast to coast recognize supply management creates a stable environment that allows local family farms to remain the foundation of more than $25 billion a year in economic activity, supporting 300,000 jobs,” says Egg Farmers of Canada (EFC) Chair, Peter Clarke. “Mayors and reeves clearly understand just how important this sector is to Canadian consumers and to the health of their own

Senate should be fixed or folded Tom Fletcher Black Press The B.C. government will go ahead with its plan for Alberta-style senate elections if it proves impossible to scrap the senate altogether, Premier Christy Clark said this week. Clark issued a statement in response to the controversy over senate expense claims that has gripped Ottawa. On
record as preferring the senate be scrapped, Clark declined to comment on federal Liberal leader Justin Trudeau’s statement to a Montreal newspaper that the senate should be preserved because Quebec has 24 senators and Alberta and B.C. have only six each. “It’s true British Columbians have long been troubled by an unelected senate, but it should be fixed or folded and not a
distraction,” Clark said. “The Prime Minister invited us to move the process of senate reform forward. To that end, we have moved legislation in the house before the election that would make a senate election possible. It has not been passed and it will not be re-introduced until there is clarity from the Supreme Court.” Clark added: “We need to remember the fact that B.C. and the West is dra-

matically under-represented in the unelected senate.” The federal government has asked the Supreme Court of Canada to rule on whether it can abolish the senate, or impose term limits and a provincial election requirement on new senators appointed. When former B.C. Liberal MLA John Les tabled senate election legislation in 2011, Clark made her preference clear.
“I think that if we could, under the constitution, we should abolish the senate,” Clark said at the time, adding that electing senators would be the next best thing. Prime Minister Stephen Harper returned to the House of Commons Tuesday to face opposition questions on the conduct of Senators Mike Duffy and Pamela Wallin, whose expense claims have come under scrutiny.

I can see clearly The value of vision was brought home to me when I had cataract surgery recently. Over the years cataracts had grown on the lens of my eyes and slowly robbed me of some of my vision. Upon removal of the cataract I noticed the flowers, painted walls, and coloured paper all seemed to be that much brighter and sharper. It was like a yellowish film had been removed from my eye. I was truly amazed how much more beautiful the world actually is. Cataracts start out small and even when surgery is needed they can only be seen with special equipment by your optometrist, yet they can cause blindness. They cause one to lose sight gradually; without notice, until you are impeded with blurry or dimmed and cloudy vision, increased need for light for reading, frequent eyeglass prescription changes, halos around lights, or night-time glare that won’t allow you to drive. Sin can enter into our souls in much the same way. It is just a little thing. We may tell a little lie to spare someone’s feelings, justify taking a pen from work that they will not miss. Since we got away with the little things we try to get away with bigger lies or taking more expensive things. Luke 16: 10-11 10 - “If you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in large ones. But if you are dishonest in little things, you won’t be honest

BY JEREMY VOGT BY Captain RandY with greater responsibilities. 11 And if you are untrustworthy about worldly wealth, who will trust you with the true riches of heaven? Hatred, anger, envy, greed and lust coat our spiritual eyes with a tainted film blurring our vision. Left untreated cataracts will eventual blind a person. Left alone sin eventually leads a person to become lost, miserable, angry and upset. Cataract surgery, the replacing of the affected lens with a clear clean one, is like confessing our sins and having a close loving relationship with Jesus; removing the film and restoring the loving and warm relationship with
Jesus. Then we can see the true colours of the beauty around us. Isaiah was troubled when he was directed by God to prophesy spiritual blindness for the people of Israel because of their sin and idolatry. “Yes, go, and say to this people, ‘Listen carefully, but do not understand. Watch closely, but learn nothing.’ Harden the hearts of these people. Plug their ears and shut their eyes. That way, they will not see with their eyes, nor hear with their ears, nor understand with their hearts and turn to me for healing.” Then I said, “Lord, how long will this go on?” And he replied, “Until their towns are empty, their houses are deserted, and the whole country is a wasteland; until the Lord has sent everyone away, and the entire land of Israel lies deserted. If even a tenth—a remnant—survive, it will be invaded again and burned. But as a terebinth or oak tree leaves a stump when it is cut down, so Israel’s stump will be a holy seed.” (Isaiah 6:9-13) Let us not be blinded by sin and worldly ways; seek God, repent, and be renewed in the Spirit. Let your hearts be cleansed through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, and your minds renewed through the washing of the Word. Let Christ give you the clear vision to see the beauty that He sees.

BCTF digs in for endless war
B.C. VIEWS TOM FLETCHER
Like those Japanese soldiers who didn’t hear about the end of the Second World War, the militant fringe that controls the B.C. Teachers’ Federation is digging in for endless battle against the B.C. government. Their nemesis, Premier Christy Clark, reiterated last week that seeking a 10-year agreement with the BCTF is a top priority when the legislature is recalled this summer. The current one-year truce ends June 30. The BCTF grudgingly agreed to that extension last year, then ran TV ads calling for an NDP government that promised concessions and union bosses on both sides of the negotiating table. “You know, I may be a lame duck,” outgoing BCTF president Susan Lambert crowed to cheering classroom-warfare radicals at the union’s convention in March, “but I think Christy’s goose is cooked.” We’ll never know how much this sort of gloating contributed to the epic collapse of the NDP, champion of public sector union members whose pay and benefits make them the new upper class. But I can tell you the prospects for sparing children from this ideological warfare are not good. Last week the B.C. Court
of Appeal handed down an ivory-tower decision that upheld the “right” of teachers to bring their union demands into the classroom in the form of posters, buttons and black armbands that to some self-absorbed teachers symbolize the “death” of education. During the election campaign, The Globe and Mail carried a story on one of those mock elections held in schools around the province. An elementary-level student was quoted as saying she voted against the B.C. Liberals because Clark “caused a teachers’ strike.”
If this kid was talking about the most recent strike, I wonder where she got that idea. In a negotiating performance that was appalling even by BCTF standards, Lambert and her team conducted months of disruptive work-to-rule action before they could even articulate a wage and benefit demand. When they finally did, it was outrageously out of touch with reality. An indication of how the union’s ruling class wants to conduct itself in the classroom can be found in the latest issue of the BCTF
newsletter to its members. Joanna Larson, president of the Prince Rupert union local, contributes an article headlined: “What kind of citizen do we hope to graduate from our K-12 public schools?” Larson first quotes the education ministry’s current goals. They include preparing citizens who are “creative, flexible, self-motivated, and who have a positive selfimage.” Another goal is citizens who are “skilled and who can contribute to society generally, including the
world of work.” Larson then mocks these goals, as follows: “Essentially, the Ministry of Education has a vision of citizens who will maintain the status quo, not rock the boat, and participate on a superficial level in aspects of political and societal change. It doesn’t challenge individuals to take direct action against exploitation, marginalization and violence.” In case you missed the political message, Larson later asserts: “The educated citizens we graduate from our schools cannot just be con-
tent to wear a pink shirt once a year…. Educated, engaged citizens must be willing to take direct action to change and shape our society for the better.” What is this ghastly status quo that must be challenged by direct action? In these campus-radical screeds, the final answer is generally the same: capitalism. This call to arms is a blend of the NDP election platform and a rant from the Occupy Vancouver squat of a couple of years ago. It’s no wonder we hear of students making BCTF picket signs in art class.

Mayors confer on housing crisis Canada’s Big City Mayors’ Caucus (BCMC) is calling on its provincial, territorial and federal partners to confront the growing housing crisis across the country. The BCMC, a group representing 22 of the largest cities in Canada, met Wednesday in Vancouver ahead of the Federation of Canadian Municipalities’ (FCM) Annual Conference and Trade Show. “The rising cost of housing is an issue we see in cities across the country,” said Gregor Robertson, Mayor of Vancouver and Chair of BCMC. “Cities are ready and willing to help protect the economy and solve this housing crisis but we need federal and provincial partners who are committed to working with us.” The $1.7 billion annu-
ally in federal housing investments are set to expire with the greatest drop in funding, up to $500 million a year, ending between 2014 and 2019. This will put more than half a million Canadians at risk of losing their homes unless federal, provincial, and territorial governments take action. The BCMC is calling for a new housing partnership by all orders of government dedicated to: • Eliminating chronic homelessness through proven strategies • Stimulating new rental and affordable housing construction with tax incentives or other measures • Preserving and renovating existing social housing units • Housing workers to support a growing economy Canada’s housing crisis
is too big and complex for any single order of government to solve on its own, given the thousands of builders, investors and community partners working within a web of federal, provincial, and local policies. With the new 10-year infrastructure plan announced in Budget 2013, the federal government built the kind of practical partnership needed to meet this type of national challenge. This partnership must be expanded. “Record levels of household debt, new economic realities and changing demographics mean we can no longer rely solely on home ownership to meet Canada’s housing needs,” added Robertson. While the face of this challenge may look different from one region to the next, all cities are
struggling from this crisis. The average price of a new home in Canada nearly doubled between 2001 and 2010. About 32 per cent of Canadians live in one of Canada’s 3.9 million rental units, yet purpose-built rental housing accounts for just 10 per cent of new residential construction over the past 15 years. This topic and other issues will be heard at the annual FCM conference, which kicked off Thurs-
Serving the Cariboo District
day in Vancouver. The conference is the largest gathering of elected officials in Canada and will see the release of an FCM report on the State of Cities and Communities that will address where Canada’s municipalities stand today, the challenges facing them and the way forward. Visit fcm.ca for more on BCMC, the FCM’s Annual Conference and Trade Show and the reports it produces.

The Union of BC Indian Chiefs (UBCIC) released the First Nations Heritage Planning Toolkit, May 28. The toolkit is intended to support First Nations in the development of heritage related capacity and provide information to First Nations on developing a heritage plan or policies, and assist First Nations in responding to development referrals associated with heritage. “This toolkit will be invaluable to First Nations in B.C. facing the onslaught of referrals by proponents and it will assist First Nations in the development of their own plans and policies for the protection of their heritage resources,” said Grand Chief Stewart Phillip, President of the UBCIC. “From the Musqueam at Cesna?em, the Ktunaxa at Qat’muk and the recent destruction of petroglyphs in Snuneymuxw territory, it is apparent that this type of tool is necessary for communities, in order to strengthen our heritage protection policies. Ultimately, this toolkit will assist First Nations in becoming more proactive in the management and protection of their heritage sites and resources.” Dr. Judith Sayers, former Chief of Hupacasath First Nation and Co-chair of the Joint Working Group on First Nations Heritage Conservation and a member of the Advisory Committee for this project said: “A highly collaborative project, this free, flexible and peer-reviewed toolkit was called for by First Nations at the 2011 First Nations Heritage Forum.

Compost and mulching One thing I noticed years ago when I began composting was that our kitchen garbage was no longer quite so smelly! Later I realized by composting I was also keeping the smell or methane gas out of our landfill and reducing our garbage by 40%! It truly isn’t a difficult process, add water occasionally, sprinkle on a bit of soil and keep the chunks small. I sometimes forget particularly the last, so this spring those corn cobs look like they need a bit of work. The reward - rich, organic soil made on-site! Here are some tips I’ve learned. The science of soil - a well balanced soil has a balance of carbon and nitrogen. The carbon is dry things - leaves, branches, paper, stems and dry grass clippings. Nitrogen is wet kitchen scraps (minus meat), green lawn clippings and wilted flowers. The smaller the pieces the easier it is for the ‘microbes’, small creatures that do
the work in a compost bin - to break down the compost into soil. They get their protein and moisture for making more cells from the nutrients in the nitrogen rich ‘kitchen scraps’ and their food energy, similar to carbohydrates, from the carbon. For worm bins consider these unusual carbon sources: dryer lint, egg cartons and pizza crusts. Sometimes we need to add more water, but if your compost is getting quite stinky it means it is high in nitrogen so time to add more carbon (dry leaves). Excess water will ‘drown’ the microbes you need
to do the work. Your compost moisture level should be like a squeezed sponge. Fluff up your compost to prevent dry outer edges and pockets. Same goes for worm bins, if you can smell it some attention is needed, worms should smell like dirt. The quickest trip from kitchen scraps to garden soil, vermiculture, is using worms to assist you. Even more exciting is the power of the worm droppings – they have 12 times more nutrient than conventional compost. A word on mulching, since it is something compost is good for.
The purpose of mulch is to regulate soil temperature while helping to retain moisture and provide nutrient to the soil. It has the bonus of smothering weeds, making gardening chores less arduous. Inorganic mulch such as rocks and gravel, hold heat and do not break down, best used around evergreens. Organic mulch adds to the soil and blends well with plant debris, which enriches the soil and blends with the mulch. If your plants begin to turn pale in colour, chances are you have too much carbon in your soil (add more
Did you know? When people think of outdoor storage, they generally envision garden sheds to house their lawn and garden equipment and tools. However, if space doesn’t allow for a large shed, there is no need to fret because there are other storage possibilities. Consider a garden ottoman or bench, for example. This structure can be built from wood and then painted or covered in padded fabric. Store small items inside the ottoman, which can also serve as a table or additional seating. In addition to an ottoman, use a garden tool that can keep
shovels and rakes organized. Homeowners with a deck can construct lidded deck boxes to store patio cushions or any other outdoor
equipment. Utilizing the space under the deck is another idea. Cover the perimeter of the bottom of the deck with lattice and install
one piece on a hinge to serve as a door. Store equipment underneath and out of sight. It also will be protected from the elements.

moist kitchen scraps). This can also happen if you use bark mulch around perennials and flowers. Try leaf mould (fallen leaves collected in the fall) and compost for best results around these plants. Common sense when adding compost and mulch: don’t add it too early in the spring or it will prevent the soil from warming up, rot tender roots on a wet soil. Try dry grass clippings, bark (small chips for around flowers), evergreen needles (great for acid loving blueberries, hydrangea, lilies and lupins), chopped leaves (run your mower over them in the fall and bag for spring). A last word when adding compost and mulch, keep it away
from stems and trunks. A hot mulch will cook tender flower stems and surface roots. Too thick a layer of bark around trees will soften the trunk bark, attracting hungry insects and disease.

Identifying your garden preferences A personal garden is only limited by the constraints of a person’s imagination. The vast array of plants and flowers available from all over the world can turn anyone’s yard into a melange of functional spaces. When designing a garden, many homeowners do not know where to begin. Much like decorating the interior of a home, how a garden landscape is executed depends on various factors. Climate and conditions The foremost consideration when planting a garden is the climate where the garden will be located. Planting items that are not conducive to growing in certain conditions can be counterintuitive and a waste of money and effort. Prospective gardeners must become familiar with the hardiness zones of their region prior to making any plans. This will help you to determine which types of plants will thrive on your landscape. Once this is determined, examination of the soil
and conditions on the property is also helpful. Taking this step will help identify any plant deterrents, such as poor soil quality and pH as well as any pests that may impede plant growth. If you live in a hot, sandy location, lush tropical plants may not thrive. Therefore, even if you desire a Mediterranean look, you may have to settle for something that works better with your landscape conditions. Style of the home Landscaping designs often tie into the architectural style of a home. For example, an extensive Asian-

inspired garden complete with koi pond and bonsai may look odd in front of a log home. Keep architecture in mind when planning a garden so the look of the home you present is cohesive and fits with the community and immediate vicinity. Design preferences Are you a free spirit who doesn’t conform to convention with firm boundaries? Or are you one who likes order and things in their place? Knowing what makes you tick will help you to choose a gardening style that will be easier to maintain and also make you feel comfortable. For example, prairie-
style planting or wildflower gardens are dramatic ways to create natural points of color over a large area. Most plants are allowed to grow as they may. Those who like a dreamy ethereal feel to their gardens may be inspired by cottage designs, where generously filled borders overflow into a flower and foliage paradise. If you are more inclined to follow the rules and like an orderly landscape, a parterre, or formal planting bed, may be more your style. When carefully pruned, box hedging can show off symmetry and geometry in your space. Some people are more focused on the accents in their gardens than the plants themselves. Modern architecture pairs well with a contemporary style that blends minimalist accents and easy-tomaintain plants. Although you can change plants in your garden, investing in a garden that you will be happy with for a long time is a costly venture. You may want to consult a landscape architect or

Students of Little Chiefs Primary School enjoy books from their new Secewpemc Library. Little Chiefs was a recent receipient for funding through Success By 6. Faren Rouse photo
Grad driver safety encouraged With graduation season beginning next week, the government of B.C. congratulates students for reaching this important milestone and reminds them and their parents to plan a safe celebration, especially when it involves transportation without adult supervision. Earlier this year, a youth died and another was taken to hospital in two separate incidents involving party buses. Following these incidents, the ministry’s Passenger Transportation Branch contacted operators to review their policies regarding chaperoning minors and transporting liquor in their vehicles, and to remind them of their obligations under the Liquor Control and Licensing Act. It is illegal to consume liquor in any public place, including a commercial vehicle such as a party bus. The ministry is working with companies to ensure the service they provide is safe and ful-
ly compliant with the laws in place to protect young people, families and the public in general. As students will use many transportation options during their graduation celebrations, drivers need to be aware of the importance of staying safe. In March, ICBC kicked off its road safety speaker program to reinforce the message of making the right decision when it comes to
drinking and driving, and to avoid riding with an impaired driver. Speakers will be in Williams Lake at
Columneetza and WIlliams Lake secondary schools on Wednesday June 5 and Thursday June 6.

This handsome three-bedroom, two-storey recreation home, with its steeply pitched metal roof, boasts multiple sundecks for outdoor living and will enhance any alpine or lake-view property. Entry is through a gable-covered porch, set at an angle and defined with wooden pilasters. The door is flanked by sidelights. To the right of the spacious foyer is the kitchen, with a generous pantry, a raised eating bar and a C-shaped counter configuration that promises efficiency. This room overlooks a screened porch. Thanks to its proximity to the kitchen, it could be used as an informal dining area in warm weather. Beyond is the great room, where a partly vaulted ceiling adds drama. The built-in fireplace will make this room popular with family members and guests in cooler weather. The room opens onto a large sundeck for summer-time relaxation and al fresco meals. The formal dining room is adjacent to the foyer, and boasts a partly vaulted ceiling. Also on the main floor is the third bedroom, with its own three-piece bathroom and sundeck. Stairs nearby lead to the second floor and to the unfinished basement. Upstairs, the master suite occupies an unusually shaped room that is spacious enough to include a window-side sitting area. There is access to a sundeck. The ensuite,
shared with the second bedroom, is of substantial size and contains a linen closet. Overlooking the back garden is the library, which shares a sundeck with the master suite, and could double as a guest bedroom or entertainment centre. The home’s exterior is finished in wood siding. Crossbraced gables and a stone foundation lend a European air to the design. This home measures 44 feet wide and 49 feet, 10 inches deep, for a total of 1,926 square feet. Plans for design 10-3-211 are available for $676 (set of 5), $766 (set of 8) and $819 for a super set of 10. Also add $30.00 for Priority charges within B.C. or $55.00 outside of B.C. Please add 12% H.S.T., 13% H.S.T. Or 5% G.S.T (where applicable) to both the plan price and Priority charges.

A Celebration of Life will be held at 2:00pm on Saturday, June 1, 2013 at McKinnon Hall, 1000 Huckvale Place. Thank you to Dr. Magnuson and the staff at Deni House for the amazing care.
PINETTE DORA (DORLI) July 26, 1935 - May 24, 2013 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Dorli. She left us peacefully on May 24th, at home with her family. She leaves husband Conrad, daughter Christine, son Andrew, daughter-in-law, Kimberlea, grandchildren Nicholas, Brennan, Chanelle and Gabrielle, an aunt and cousins in Switzerland and a cousin in New York. Dorli was born and raised in Basel, Switzerland, trained as a nurse in England and moved to Canada in 1962, to pursue her career as a Registered Nurse. She took a position at Cariboo Memorial Hospital in Williams Lake in 1963, met Conrad and they were married in Basel, Switzerland in December 1965. They then established their home in Williams Lake, raised their family there and subsequently moved to Vancouver in 1986. The family wants to thank the staff from Pacific Spirit Community Health Centre for their attention and support, Louise Hoggard (Kimberlea’s mother) for her care and assistance during the last few weeks of her life and Dr. Lee McGillivray, from Copeman Healthcare Centre, for her help, guidance and support. Contributions to BC Cancer Agency or BC Children’s Hospital in memory of Dorli can be considered. A Celebration of Life will be held in Kelowna in July, 2013. Kearney Funeral Services 604-736-0268
