Grand Forks Fire Rescue and the Midway Volunteer Fire Department are involved in a mutually beneficial deal for equipment and training. The department in Grand Forks (on behalf of the rural fire protection district) will sell a fire water tender (ground water tanker), four breathing apparatuses and fire hose to Midway at a reasonable price and in return, Midway Fire Chief Walt Osellame will come in to provide training to Grand Forks firefighters at no cost to the department. Grand Forks Fire Chief Dale Heriot didn’t want to comment on how much the deal would be worth and said that the training is beneficial, as Osellame is a certified trainer for the College of the Rockies. “We’re doing a certification program with our guys right now. Normally we would be charged for that, for (Osellame) to come in to do the testing, and we’re getting that free of charge. We’re getting a fire service instructor course free of charge and some other courses that we’ll agree on and he’ll provide for us free of charge,” Heriot explained. While the Midway department is getting some older equipment, the Grand Forks fire chief said
DALE HERIOT
it isn’t a case of unloading items to the department’s brothers to the west. The water tender is in perfect working condition, Heriot said, and the same for the breathing equipment. “All our self-contained breathing apparatuses (SCBA) we use here are ISI (brand) and the ones we have now that we’re going to sell to the Midway are the old Magnum model. We’ve changed to a model called Viking and there are some notable differences and we originally had kept the Magnums because we were going to use them specifically for training so the guys didn’t beat
up the new ones but because there are so many differences we’d rather have our guys training with the ones they’re going to use,” said Heriot. “These ones have just become expendable. They’re fine and Walt still uses Magnums there.” For his part, Osellame said the new equipment will help his department’s efficiency and it is all part of co-operation between the various area firefighters. “Our intent here is hopefully to be able to extend our response out towards Rock Creek on Highway 3 and 33 and we’ve already received an engine donated by the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary, which is the old Greenwood engine, and it still works wonderfully,” said the Midway fire chief. “We have a mutual aid agreement between Greenwood, Grand Forks and even to an extent Christina Lake but it doesn’t end there … we all try to help each other with everything we can, so I’m going to go over and do a bunch of training, assessments and that kind of thing for them and they’re going to help us out with anything else they can do, whether it’s live fire training or helping us out with some equipment so we can get some things done,” Osellame went on to say. Heriot said that he estimates that the Grand Forks department’s new fire tender could be arriving at the end of the month.

Sewer and water rates to increase

In an effort to keep up with the cost of service, the City of Grand Forks is increasing its sewer and water rates on a monthly basis. The plan, which was adopted Monday evening at the city council meeting, implements a $2 per month flat rate increase in user fees for sewer rates and water rates. “It would be a $24 per year increase,” said city chief administrative officer Doug Allin in an interview with the Gazette. The rate increase, which falls under bylaw 1952 (sewer) and 1953 (water), will be in place for one year and that rate structure will be reviewed again next year. “That rate is not going to go up $24 every year,” said Roxanne Shepherd, the city’s chief financial officer. She said the city has to take into account things like inflation and cost of service every year. “Expenditures and the cost of
supplying that service does go up every year,” said Hal Wright, city manager of operations. The water bylaw does state: “Should the property owner elect to have the water service to a building turned on or off as described in Section 18 of this bylaw, water customer charge and fixed and capital fees will continue to be charged.” Shepherd said the flat rate is charged in order to keep the costs constant throughout the year when people leave town for warmer weather. “We have snowbirds and so they will say they are going away for six months and so then (the city would have to) jack up all the rates for everyone, to take into account the people that are on and off the system,” she said. “We still have to have (water and sewer) hooked up so we still do charge those flat rates for everyone.” Allin said the rate increase is representative of the actual operating costs.

1994 Blazer ends up in ditch after avoiding animal on Gilpin
SASCHA PORTEOUS Gazette Reporter
On June 8, a vehicle went off the road after swerving to avoid an animal. The Grand Forks RCMP received a call just after 9 p.m. about a single vehicle accident on Gilpin Road. “The vehicle went off the road to the right after swerving to miss an animal and it was stuck in a swampy ditch after striking several big rocks,” said Grand Forks RCMP Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison. There was extensive damage to the 1994 Chevrolet Blazer, but there were no injuries. The driver, a 31-year-old female from Grand Forks, and the two passengers were all wearing seatbelts. Alcohol was not a factor, said Harrison. iPod stolen from unlocked vehicle A vehicle parked at a residence of Kettle River Drive, with its windows rolled down and unlocked doors, was entered on June 7. A 30-gigabyte iPod was taken, said Harrison, and it has an estimated value of $250. The vehicle was a 2002 Pontiac Montana Van. There were no witnesses and currently no suspects. A string of sheds get broken into A burglar used a chisel to gain entry into a locked shed on Second Street during the night of June 6. “Things were disturbed inside, somebody was looking for something but didn’t see any-

thing they wanted obviously,” said Harrison, adding nothing was taken. The chisel was found at the scene of entry. There are currently no suspects or witnesses. Grand Forks RCMP received another report of another break-and-enter into a shed overnight on June 4. “Someone had gone through a shed and a greenhouse on a property on Riverside Drive; there was no damage to the buildings . . . and it was determined that nothing was taken,” said the staff sergeant. There are no suspects or witnesses. During the same night, a shed behind the Granby Dental Clinic had been broken into. “The shed door was pried from the hinges; the only item taken was a jerry can with fuel,” said Harrison. There are no suspects or witnesses. Single vehicle rollover, minor injuries On June 3, two kilometres east of Grand Forks on Highway 3, there was a single vehicle rollover accident. The lone occupant, an 82-year-old male from Beasley, B.C. and driver of a red Subaru Legacy, lost control of his vehicle in heavy rainfall and skidded across the highway. “The vehicle landed in the ditch after rolling over and landed on its wheels,” said Harrison. There were no injuries, however, the driver was shaken up, according to police reports. The vehicle is believed to be a write-off, added Harrison.

Telus will invest $270,000 in Grand Forks to expand wired broadband infrastructure for residents and businesses. Telus spokesman Shawn Hall described what the $270,000 would go towards. “More fibre optic cable in the ground, faster Internet speeds, more capacity and covering more neighbourhoods with broadband. So it really is a continuation of the investment we’ve been making over a number of years,” Hall told the Gazette. “It will go to other things as well. If we bring cable out to a neighbourhood, we need to install other infrastructure, bring it out to homes, those kinds of things and also building to new developments, existing developments and everything else.” Hall said in some cases telephone poles would have to be installed. The City of Grand Forks said it
welcomes such investment. “From our perspective it is great to see Telus investing money in our community to ensure our community is being offered services that meet today’s consumer expectations,” city chief administrative officer Doug Allin said. “Telus’ $270,000 investment means people and businesses right here in Grand Forks will have more access to your Internet services,” explained Telus’ Southern Interior general manager Steve Jenkins, in a release. “The demands for advanced communications services is exploding in Grand Forks and Telus is committed to bringing the latest technology to the community.” Telus said the $270,000 investment represents part of Telus’ $3 billion, three-year commitment to invest in British Columbia. It says by the end of 2013, it will have invested $1 million in new technology and infrastructure in Grand Forks (since 2009).

z Our View
Co-operation good for rural fire departments Things always seem to work better when people work as a team and this is being demonstrated with a deal between the fire departments in Grand Forks and Midway. Grand Forks Fire Rescue will sell a water tanker vehicle (on behalf of the rural fire protection district), breathing apparatuses and fire hose at a reasonable price to its counterparts in Midway and Midway Fire Chief Walt Osellame will in return give free training and certification for Grand Forks. Osellame is a certified trainer with the College of the Rockies so the Grand Forks department will not only get free training but won’t have to worry about paying to have a qualified person to come in to help with assessments. Osellame says it would be nearly impossible for his department to get a new tanker vehicle as the Midway Volunteer Fire Department is a small department in a small community and purchasing the vehicle from Grand Forks is more manageable. The Grand Forks department now uses a different model of breathing apparatus and while cynics might see it as unloading equipment to Midway, the apparatuses are still in good condition and are exactly the model that the Midway firefighters use. As Osellame said, the Village of Midway is small and purchasing brand new equipment is not always financially viable as things like new firefighting vehicles can carry a price tag in the millions of dollars. Grand Forks is getting a new vehicle and rather than taking a good, working vehicle and using it as a display or even scrapping it, it is selling it to a department that can make better use of it. Fire service is crucial, especially in rural areas like Grand Forks and Midway and having equipment in good, working order can save lives and it is better to be prepared because emergencies can occur at any time. Osellame says a number of different departments are working together collectively and that is a good thing.

I still remember my very first column like it was yesterday. Now only three months later I’m writing my last editorial for the Grand Forks Gazette. In my brief time here I have learned a ton and met a lot of great people. Sure, there were also a few odd balls along the way but for the most part, everyone here treated me with a lot of respect. Before I began this job, I imagined that I would struggle to find enough stories to fill the pages of the newspaper, but I was wrong. There was always something to report in Grand Forks, or as the locals would call it “God’s country.” There were a large diversity of subjects and issues to cover and it always kept me busy. Work aside, I really felt at home here in the community

and I think that Grand Forks and Christina Lake should be proud of all the groups, clubs and organizations that add a lot of value to this region. I joined the Boundary Woodworkers Guild as soon as I got here and I was blown away with the club. It was a place where I could meet new people with the same common interest of woodworking and everyone was incredibly welcoming. It was also an incredible woodworking facility with all the tools and equipment any hobbyist woodworker could ever want.
For a town of this size to have an organization such as the woodworkers guild really speaks highly of the region. Over time, I learned of so many more clubs and groups, such as the ATV club, cycling club, curling club, trails group and quilting clubs to name just a few, but that really only touches the surface. My partner and baby boy were also welcomed with open arms into this community and they participated in a lot of new mom’s groups and classes. Cohen, Nicole and myself are all going to miss this area and all the people that made us feel at home. This region is brimming with history, tradition and a great sense of community and I’m fortunate to have been a little part of that, even if it was for only a short time.

Don’t use Roundup at ball field Editor: Note: The City of Grand Forks says its licensed applicator is spot testing Roundup in some nongrassed areas and will follow it up with a vinegar water solution I recently learned that the city works department has been using the herbicide Roundup on baseball fields within the city. This herbicide has been suspected for years of having serious health risks. As a result, many cities have banned its use. Recent peer-reviewed research, published in the journal Entropy, has shown that exposure to Glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, in combination with other environmental toxins, could contribute
to inflammatory bowel disease, obesity, depression, ADHD, autism, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, multiple sclerosis, cancer, cachexia, infertility and development malformations – www.mdpi. com/1099-4300/15/4/1416 is a website for a related article. When I questioned the works department as to why they started using Roundup after discontinuing its use 10 years ago, it said it was because removing weeds manually from the infield was too expensive. It is understandable that the department has to work within a limited budget. What I don’t understand is why infields need to be bare earth. Most of use grew up playing baseball on grassy infields. I would request council study the independent research available and if it finds there is a risk to children and other vulnerable residents (not to mention our water supply), please take some leadership on this issue.

First Nations’ issues part II As per my previous column, here is my continuation on the First Nations issue. In some parts of the country, Aboriginal rights were recognized and affirmed under hisALEX toric treaties. In other parts of ATAMANENKO Canada – particularly British Columbia – few treaties are in place, so modern treaties (called comprehensive land claims) are being negotiated. Both government and Indigenous peoples see these agreements as the way forward, but very little progress has been made. Since 1973, only 24 comprehensive land claims and two stand-alone selfgovernment agreements have been concluded. As of September 2012, there remain 93 active self-government and comprehensive land claim negotiations underway across the country. On average, reaching an agreement takes 15 years and many negotiations are completely stalled in part because government negotiators insist that agreements must “extinguish” rights in one form or another. This means that in exchange for an agreement that defines specific rights and benefits, the community in question must renounce any other rights they may be entitled to as Indigenous peoples. Many communities resist renouncing what they see as inherent rights, and this approach has also been condemned by a number of UN human rights bodies. Even when agreements are reached, issues remain with implementation. Numerous independent reviewers, including the auditor general, have confirmed that the Government of Canada is not fulfilling its obligations under these historic or modern treaties. Indeed, there are an estimated 700 to 800 charges of breach of such agreements (specific land claims) that remain unresolved. The federal government officially recognizes 346 of these specific land claims. At the present rate, it is expected to take 100 years to settle them all. Faced with the failure of its approach, in September 2012 the Harper government announced a policy shift to focus on comprehensive land claim negotiations with “willing” partners. This “Results-based approach,” means that the federal government will pull out of negotiations if it decides it is not progressing satisfactorily. The NDP strongly rejects this approach, as the federal government has a responsibility to negotiate with all Indigenous peoples. In 2007, the NDP tabled a motion for a child-first principle based on Jordan’s Principle, which holds that when there is a jurisdictional dispute over which level of government should pay for an Aboriginal child’s care, whichever government was first contacted will provide the service, and later seek resolution of the jurisdictional dispute. This motion was unanimously agreed to by the House of Commons. In 2008, the NDP tabled a motion in support of the United Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous peoples that was adopted by the majority of the House. • The NDP was also instrumental in bringing about the 2008 Residential School Apology. • In 2009, the NDP tabled a motion that was unanimously agreed to by the House to declare June as National Aboriginal History Month. • In 2010, the NDP hosted an Aboriginal Candidate’s Summit in Ottawa that brought indigenous candidates running for the NDP together with representatives from the three national Aboriginal organizations representing distinct peoples. • In 2012, the NDP tabled a motion based on the principles of the Shannen’s Dream campaign, which maintains that perstudent funding for First Nations’ education should be at least equal to the funding provided for other Canadian students. This motion was unanimously agreed to by the House. • The Idle No More movement arose in response to the Conservative’s omnibus budget bill which gutted the Environmental Assessment Act and the Navigable Waters Act directly affecting the Indigenous peoples. The NDP supported this campaign. Government position Aboriginal issues were not among the five priorities in the Conservatives’ election campaign. Before the 2006 election, Conservative leader Stephen Harper barely mentioned the Kelowna Accord and has since failed to meet its targets. Since coming into power, the Conservatives have failed to deliver on the promises they made to renew the Crown’s relationship with Aboriginal peoples, first in the Residential School Apology in 2008, then at the Jan. 24, 2012 Crown Gathering and again at the Jan. 11, 2013 meeting with the National Chief Shawn Atleo. Instead, through omnibus bills like C-38 and C-45, the Conservatives have gutted the Navigable Waters Protection Act and weakened environmental protection laws falling to uphold the Crown’s duty to consult Aboriginal peoples. The federal government has a moral obligation and must live up to its responsibilities of First Nations in Canada. – Alex Atamanenko is MP for the B.C. Southern Interior

Mayor: FCM infrastructure talk key
SASCHA PORTEOUS Gazette Reporter
Grand Forks’ mayor and three councillors made the trek down to Vancouver for the annual Federation of Canadian Municipalities Conference (FCM) from May 31 to June 3. There were numerous information workshops to attend over the four-day conference, which hosted nearly 2,000 represented municipal officials from across the country, but a few of them stuck out for Mayor Brian Taylor. “One of the key points had to be the infrastructure discussions and looking at the kind of interest from small and medium size communities,” he said. Taylor said that it was evident through the discussions that small communities don’t have the tax base for proper infrastructure repairs. “Everybody at this point is running some level of infrastructure deficit but that becomes more painful in small communities, where the tax base is low as opposed to say Vancouver or Victoria, (where they) have the ability to raise tax funds.” Taylor said that the FCM provides an important platform for small municipalities to express these concerns in a collective voice.
While there were many other discussions and events at the FCM, Grand Forks’ Coun. Cher Wyers said that the infrastructure funding discussion dominated the conference. “By taking part in the conference, delegates found out how their communities can access new federal infrastructure funding and help influence the design of federal programs so they meet local needs,” said Wyers in an email statement to the Gazette. The benefit of hearing from other municipalities is that it informed local representatives of new technologies and innovations that could be beneficial to Grand Forks, said Wyers. Another topic of interest for the mayor was the discussion on the upcoming medical marijuana regulations that will have an influence on municipalities. “They (Health Canada) went into all the changes that are being contested by the medical marijuana users but in fact are being written to protect municipalities against the kind of problems they have experienced around the Lower Mainland; increased fires, diversion to biker gangs and organized crime,” said the mayor. Coun. Patrick O’Doherty said the information on the new medical marijuana regulations, which will be imple-

mented in the following months, was very informative. “These (conferences) are full of good information that we can bring back to Grand Forks,” said O’Doherty. The FCM also provided an opportunity to hear from national political leaders including Thomas Mulcair (NDP), Justin Trudeau (Liberals), Elizabeth May (Green) and minister James Moore (Conservatives) on where they stand on the priorities and concerns of cities and communities, said Wyers. Coun. Michael Wirischagin also went to the conference in Vancouver. “What I took away from FCM is the importance of interconnectedness between communities and between governments, provincially and federally,” he said. “Without us all working together, we will not be able to move forward in a fashion that makes sense, especially when everyone is fighting for the same dollar.” As for an event that stuck out in Wirischagin’s mind, it was one of the receptions. “A discussion that stood out would be the 35 and under reception that I attended. It focused on getting youth and younger people involved in politics and it was nice to see so many young politicians in attendance,” he said.

Q.
I have just purchased a boat. Do I have coverage for the boat automatically under my home policy?
Good question. Most home policies do cover boats, motors and their equipment but only up to a specified limit, usually around $ 2,000. The liability under your home policy only covers the ownership and operation of certain size and types of boats. Every Insurance Company has different wordings but usually if the boat is less than 26 feet and the outboard motor is less than 25 hp or the inboard motor is less than 50hp, they can be included under the home policy. If your boat is worth more than $ 2,000 you can either add coverage to your home policy or purchase a separate marine policy. Coverages vary and you want to make sure you know what you are purchasing. The best policy is an agreed value policy with no depreciation for repairs on partial claims. Agreed value means the Insurance Company pays the amount of insurance purchased so this is why older boats require a marine survey to determine the value of the boat. Some policies have extensions automatically included in the policy, such as coverage for tenders (dingys), personal effects, loss of use and fire department charges. There may also be a separate water-sport liability limit on your policy. To get more more information contact RHC Insurance Brokers at any one of our 8 locations.

z CANNABIS
Medicinal marijuana discussed at fair
SASCHA PORTEOUS Gazette Reporter
Recreational marijuana smokers are said to predominantly use the plant to get a euphoric high. However, that is not the intent of people who use the substance for medical purposes. Jim Leslie of Karuna Medicinals, Wendy Brisco, owner of Hush Budeez (a medical marijuana dispensary in the Boundary) and Dr. Joel Kalia from Nelson had a booth at the Christina Lake Health Fair on June 1 to educate the public on medical marijuana. “Medical cannabis patients will find that when they get into using cannabis regularly, they develop a tolerance to the psychoactive effect in the mind so it basically doesn’t affect them anymore, but what they do not get a tolerance to is the medical effect,” said Leslie. “I think it went really well,” said Brisco. “People were a little hesitant at first, but eventually when the doctor spoke, it kind of opened up people to questions.” Brisco told the Gazette that Kalia spoke at the fair about the health benefits of medical marijuana including its ability to deaden nerve pain. “Marijuana is more effective than
Gabapentin (used for neuropathic pain),” said Brisco. Leslie said that beyond alleviating pain, marijuana is applicable for many different conditions. “Cannabinoids (active principles) in marijuana are so effective at selectively killing cancer cells that they are being utilized as a primary treatment in some cases for people who are fighting aggressive cancer,” said Leslie. He adds that it also helps with Alzheimer’s, dementia, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease), Huntington’s disease, Parkinson’s and inflammation. “Marijuana is a very therapeutic wonderful synergy of three basic compounds that provide us relief and stop disease,” he said. While most people think marijuana and smoking go hand-in-hand, Brisco said there are many alternatives to inhalation, which include vaporization, oral consumption, baked goods, drinks, oils, tonics, topical rubs and wash, and wax bars. “There are a lot of options to healing your body without getting high,” she said. “One of the big things that I think is changing healing the body is the juice cube, (which has) no psy-
choactive effects, because it’s cold formulated.” Brisco said that the number of people in the Boundary using medical marijuana is steadily growing. “The elderly are getting, I think, discouraged that their medication isn’t working as well as they would hope and they are just a little more open to new ideas,” she said. “In this area, there are a lot of sick people and a lot of elderly that have a lot of medical conditions, so with this being a big retirement centre I see the need getting greater because people want more control and more choice over their own medication.” Leslie said that by taking medical marijuana, other medication can be eliminated. “People come in with multiple pharmaceutical prescriptions and all the side effects that come with it and when they take medical cannabis into their lives properly, they can eliminate many of their drugs, they can live better lives, they can live longer under their own care, they can eat better, feel better and bond with their families,” he said. In order for anyone to legally use medical marijuana, a doctor’s prescription is required. Wendy Brisco

Grand Forks Hospital Auxiliary Thrift Shop celebrating 50 years
The Grand Forks Hospital Auxiliary Thrift Shop is celebrating its GRAND FORKS 50th anniverHOSPITAL sary. AUXILIARY The original thrift shop opened three afternoons a week in 1963 in rented space, netting at that time $130 per month with a membership of approximately 34 volunteers. In August of 1981, a small downtown lot was purchased and with the very generous support of local community businesses and private individuals with money, labour and materials, the dream of the auxiliary owning its own shop was realized. The new thrift shop opened its doors at its current location on March 5, 1984. The thrift shop has steadily grown over the years, with a current membership of 100 volunteers. In 2012, these members volunteered a total of 31,574 hours. The auxiliary’s goal is to stock the store with clean, re-useable goods. The generous support and donations from the community make this possible. The purpose of the non-profit society is to raise funds to provide comfort and aid to Boundary Hospital patients and to financially support health-related programs within the Boundary and West Kootenay areas of the Interior Health region.

SASCHA PORTEOUS Gazette Reporter
Grand Forks and Christina Lake has had many vegetarian influences over the years with the Doukhobor culture in the area, but not vegan. The Noren family has changed that; they opened Ravenous, a new vegan takeaway café/ bakery on Saturday at 1875 Highway Street, Christina Lake. “We have been vegan for many years,” said Sharyn Noren, as she points to her daughter and business partner Tess. “We can never find anywhere to eat and particularly in this area here, it’s been vegetarian for a long time with the Russian heritage but nothing vegan available really.” Wanting to bring a vegan (a diet consisting of no meat, fish, eggs, dairy products and other animal-derived substances) option into the valley, Sharyn, Tess and their husbands bought the space last winter, which had been operated as a bakery for the last 35 years. They had a vision of making tasty, healthy, mostly organic and local vegan food available to everyone. “We have got an array of sweet stuff, such as a European sweet bread, cakes, coffee cakes, energy balls, cookies, apple tarts, stuffed pitas and vegan sausage rolls, flatbread pizzas, pasties, pies (and) salads,” said Tess. While Ravenous is a vegan establishment, Tess said that a lot of non-vegans have shown interest in her food.
“I sold stuff at the Farmers’ Market a couple of years ago and it went so well,” she said. “I didn’t really have so many vegans that actually came there, just a lot of people who really liked the food.” Tess won’t be the only one cooking and baking. Her sister Millicent and brother Pelle are also helping out over the summer months and Sharyn said that all four of them will be cooking and baking. The mother thinks the family venture will create a great work dynamic. “Our kids have been gardening and cooking since they were knee high to a grasshopper and we have just always cooked together and gardened together,” she said. Ravenous is also trying to make a good footprint by supporting local and creating as little waste along the way. “Our packaging is biodegradable, no plastic, no Styrofoam,” said Sharyn. “We (will) work with a couple of local farms in town, try to reach out and make it local as much as possible.” The family has been working hard since April to get the place in tip-top shape for opening day. “We are going to run it from (Saturday) right through till September, then reduce hours three days a week,” said Sharyn. The hours for June will be 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., Thursday to Monday and then in July they will introduce an evening menu as well.

COMMUNITY z HERITAGE
Pride of the Valley Flour Mill open again
While Grand Forks may not be an epicentre of wheat rye and triticale, fresh ground flour has been milled in the valley for decades. In an effort to revive the Pride of the Valley Flour Mill, which first began operation in 1915, the Doukhobor Milling Heritage Society and the Boundary Museum Society have joined forces to manage and operate the mill, which is capable of producing 90 kilograms of wheat per hour. “It is our hope that by working together the Pride of the Valley Flour Mill will continue to be an asset to the community,” said Bob DeMaertelaere, Boundary Museum Society secretary.

“
It is our hope that by working together the Pride of the Valley Flour Mill will continue to be an asset The museum society will provide management and marketing services for the mill and the milling society will provide the milling expertise, training for millers and the sourcing of the wheat, rye and triticale, said DeMaertelaere. The flour, which falls under the Pride of the Valley brand, has been stocking retail outlets, grocery stores and

used by the USCC Ladies Bread and Lapsha group on an as-needed basis. “The (flour mill) has been hit and miss for a while,” said the museum society secretary. “It didn’t do any milling last year because they couldn’t obtain any wheat anywhere.” DeMaertelaere believes that the traditional stone grind mill is an integral link to agriculture. “There is such an interest in agriculture again starting to surface in the valley, so a gristmill will be fairly important,” he said. The mill goes back a long ways and so it will also be an attractant for tourists, as it’s open for tours through the museum.
Walter Hoodikoff, secretary treasurer of the Doukhobor Milling Heritage Society, said that the mill is a designated heritage site. “Our mission is to provide tourism and our primary purpose is to produce flour in the most natural form possible,” he said in an email to the Gazette. DeMaertelaere said that he expects the mill to be up and running within a few weeks. “There are a few minor repairs to do (screens to be replaced) and once that is done, they are ready to mill. We have (some) wheat and triticale (in the works) from the Rock Creek area so as soon as the repairs are done we can take delivery of some grain and start milling,” he said.

As we move fully into the growing season, things are flying along at Hanneke’s Place – the Kettle River Community Garden. The garden is getting ready for the Grand Forks garden tour on July 6, and is preparing for some big projects this summer. The garden held a successful fundraiser for a composting toilet at the garden, raising over $150 selling strawberry plants. The rest of the funds for the project are coming from garden membership fees and the Grand Forks and Boundary Regional Agricultural Society and two skilled volunteers from the community will lead the construction this June. Gardeners have been busy planting their own beds, as well as a butterfly garden, a communal greens bed and a large potato patch. We have a large brick herb spiral under construction to host a variety of culinary delights. One gardener

Fred Penner to perform at 2013 Rock Creek fall fair z Local Submission ROCK CREEK AND BOUNDARY FAIR COMMITTEE
Clearing the air Michele Caskey, BC Lung Association volunteer director for Grand Forks, sets up her table at the Overwaitea parking lot on Clean Air Day, June 5. The day raises awareness and encourages action on clean air and climate change issues. There was cake and information on clean air.

Joining the performers onstage at this year’s Rock Creek and Boundary Fair will be two-time
Juno winner Fred Penner. From award-winning children’s albums like Sing with Fred and hits like The Cat Came Back, the eight-time nominee’s body of work is about energy and emotional connection. The guy who crawled magically out of that hollow log for 12 seasons, and nearly 900 episodes, in the hit CBC TV show Fred Penner’s Place is still delighting children and families everywhere. Always building on a common theme rooted in integrity and a “belief in what I can do” he has created a lasting impact that crosses the generations and continues to grow. From the small screen to the live stage, from writing songs to composing scores, Penner’s ability to blend his considerable talents has garnered critical acclaim and a host of awards. Like the precious ingredients in your favourite feel-good soup, his combination of warmth, ease, enthusiasm and grace bring nourishment too often lacking in these turbulent times. In 2000, the Canadian Institute of Child Health honoured Penner for his contribution to the wellbeing and safety of children. He is also a humble recipient of the Order of Canada, the highest rec-
Fred Penner
ognition given to a Canadian citizen. One of his albums, (Happy Feet) was named Best Children’s Album of the Year by Entertainment Weekly and he is the first ever winner of the Prairie Music Award for Outstanding Children’s Recording. His visibility has allowed him the privilege and joy of using his voice to “bring something of value” as a spokesperson for organizations like UNESCO, World Vision, UNICEF and the National Conference on Down Syndrome, which he chaired. In 2005, Penner journeyed to Zambia, Africa with World Vision to host a program for Child Sponsorship in the Western World. Organizers are honoured to have Fred Penner at this year’s Rock Creek and Boundary Fair! Penner will perform Sunday, Sept. 15 at 2 p.m. – the fair runs Sept. 14 and 15.

Sunny delight Two Grand Forks elementary schools (Perley and Hutton) once again participated in the Grand Forks Environment Committee’s Solar Car Project. Over 130 school children built solar cars. This is the third time the schools have participated in this project and each year the student designs of the cars have become more elaborate and clever. The students were given a basic model kit to assemble and run on a track provided by the Boundary Woodworkers Guild. Volunteers from the environment committee, Paul Pinard, Chris Moslin and Gary Smith, introduced and assisted the students with three challenges: build a more beautiful car, a more original car and build the fastest car. Races were held to decide the fastest cars in each school, while the students voted the winners of the other two categories. Many of the cars built this year will be on display at the fall fair in August. Top: Winners from Hutton: L-R Dante McDonald, Dawson Thomas, Ana McGill, Cliona O’Connor and Sydney Thomas. Missing: Makenna Burrows and Jayden LeRoy (both best overall). Bottom: Winners from Perley: L-R Paul Pinard (environment committee), Caitlyn Weber, Christina Lobay-Popoff, Britain Evdokimoff, Zandria Parker, Keegan Kenyon, Chris Moslin (environment committee) and Andrew McKinlay (teacher). Missing: Miles Semenoff and Marlie Gallop (best overall).

COMMUNITY z TRADES
Blacksmith course heats up local interest
SASCHA PORTEOUS Gazette Reporter
Heating a piece of iron until it’s piping hot, over a bed of fiery coals, is the first stage of the creation process in any blacksmith shop. Students of a two-day blacksmithing course at the Boundary Museum will learn some of the history behind a trade that was once in the epicentre of every town, as the blacksmith was responsible for making tools and hardware necessary to keep farms flourishing and industry growing. The majority of the course, which is being offered from July 5 to 6, will focus around the basic techniques and principles required to turn a piece of wrought iron or steel into a hanging hook or handle. “The students will start to learn hammer control, techniques on how to use a fire properly, different uses of the fire, how you would place irons in the fire, how to look for good fire – as opposed to bad fire – hammering techniques and correct stance at the anvil,” said Henry Hamilton, a blacksmith from the town of Fort Steele (B.C.) who will be conducting the course. “We will do a hook and then the mounting of the hook on a back plate and show how to make a decorative plate and then I will describe some of the artistic focus on how we approach looking at ironwork,” he said. Inspiration for bringing blacksmithing to the museum came after the Boundary Museum and the Boundary Woodworkers Guild found two forges (hearth used for heating metals) in the Doukhobor village at Hardy
Mountain last summer. “When I stumbled upon these two (forges) I thought I had died and gone to heaven,” said Bob McTavish, member of the museum society and the woodworkers’ guild. Museum members and woodworkers built a partially open blacksmith shop last fall at the Fructova School site. The traditional shop will be used not only as an interactive display for the museum but also as a functioning workspace, where museum members or woodwork guild members could use the space for their own personal projects. McTavish told the Gazette that there is a lot of interest in the introductory blacksmith course. “Three quarters of the class has already been filled,” he said. Hamilton has been a blacksmith for 10 years and an instructor for the past two; he said that there has been a recent resurgence in the trade. “People don’t associate that there is a blacksmith in their region when typically there is, he said. “I live in a fairly small valley but there are five professional shops within an hour of the valley.” McTavish already took the introductory course last year in Fort Steele and he hopes to take the advanced course, where he would learn how to make blacksmithing tools. Priority is being offered to members of the Boundary Museum and Boundary Woodworkers Guild and if there is additional space, they will be offered to the public. Call 250-442-3737 for more details.
Bob McTavish has spearheaded the construction of the blacksmith shop at the Boundary Museum. All the equipment including the anvil, forge and blower have been sourced from the region and once used by local blacksmiths.

SPORTS z SOCCER
Multi-activity camp kicks off at Lake
Youngsters loving the ‘Beautiful Game’ in the Boundary
SASCHA PORTEOUS Gazette Reporter
The Boundary Youth Soccer Association (BYSA) has organized a summer camp for kids but it won’t be limited to just soccer. In addition to learning soccer fundamentals and techniques, the camp, which runs in Christina Lake from July 15 to the 19th, will introduce kids from the age of seven to 15 to basketball, tennis, beach volleyball, swimming, hiking, lake stewardship, orienteering and kayaking. “Instead of four hours of straight intense soccer on a warm day, we though why not break that up? Let’s do some soccer, let’s do some other sports, let’s do some hanging around and some interesting summer stuff,” said Jeff Olsen, the Boundary Youth Soccer Association president. The camp will be run by Dylan Tooby, long-time soccer coach and former national soccer player, and will include eight sessions of soccer for each player. “The young fellow that is coming to run this camp, he plays on the Alberta team (Villains FC), he has done a ton of coaching and he has got amazing energy,” said Jacki Skeet, administrator of the Boundary Youth Soccer Association. There will also be a group of senior high school and first-year college students helping to facilitate the camp. “It’s a way for the older students to show leadership and provide lots of great guidance for the younger kids. It creates a great sense of community, which is what Boundary soccer is all about,” she said. Enrolment for the camp is currently open to soccer association players, and as of June 15 it will be open to all the kids of the Boundary. “We support all children,” said Skeet. “We want (the kids) to have a great time and a memorable experience.” The camp is a way to promote youth ac-

tivity in the region. “We want to grow youth sport in the whole valley. Our specific sport is soccer but you know we encourage all children to be active and have a good time and enjoy their childhood,” said the league administrator. The camp will cost $100 for BYSA members and $125 for non-BYSA members. However, if money is a barrier for enrolment, assistance is available. “If the kid is not going because of financial concerns then we will make sure that the kid goes and anybody just needs to contact us (250-447-9227) in confidence on that,” said Olsen.
While people have said soccer isn’t big in North America, don’t tell that to people in the Boundary area. The Boundary Youth Soccer Association season is on and the Wilson siblings, Caidy, Elijah and Leah, are enjoying the “Beautiful Game.” Leah plays for the 11D Blueberries, Elijah for the 9E Titans and Caidy for the 7D Green Lightning. “I love soccer because it’s very, very fun and to me, when I wake up in the morning and it’s time for a soccer game, it’s a good start to my day and I enjoy it,” opines Leah Wilson. “I like soccer because I get to run hard

and I like to get exercise,” says Elijah Wilson. “I like soccer because it’s very fun and I like it because our team sometimes loses and wins and I’m OK with that,” says Caidy. Elijah and Caidy are midfielders but Leah plays defence and even goalkeeper, something she seems to really enjoy. “If you want to play goalie, you can’t be afraid of the ball,” Leah explains. “It’s going to be coming at you, so if you’re afraid, you should probably not be a goalie because you will get hit in the face. Last year when I was playing, someone kicked me in the eye. It made me feel like I should just keep trying even though it hurt – I just have to get better at it.”
Canada Day Information 2013 With just a few short weeks left until the Canada Day Celebrations for 2013, preparations are underway for the family event, themed “Youth in the Community”.
