Garcia was part of an entourage that included his mother (third from left) who were accompanying him to the Peach City Beach Cruise event in Penticton on the weekend. Garcia needed some help from NAPA Auto Parts as well, after losing a suspension bolt on his entry, a boxless 1940 Ford pick up. Sandi Taylor and Daryl Letkeman (far left) are also in photo.

The regional district Protective Services Committee spent some time discussing the role of regional directors in emergency operations during committee and regular board meetings on June 6. A good part of the discussion centred on a hypothetical situation involving a flood emergency in Keremeos and the Lower Similkameen. The committee discussed such things as jurisdictional and command responsibilities with Regional District Okanagan Similkameen Emergency Services Supervisor Dale Kronebusch. Kronebusch recently completed an emergency planning session with Village of Keremeos staff. He noted that decision making in a public emergency would be based on geographic
jurisdictions. As an example, a flood emergency within the Keremeos village limits would be handled under the jurisdiction of the village itself, but should the emergency spread beyond the village limits, regional and or provincial resources would be brought to bear. Kronebusch also noted that ultimate decision making during an emergency event would lie with the Incident Commander. Electoral Area “B” Director George Bush initiated a discussion surrounding the need for preventive maintenanc to prevent and reduce the severity of emergencies. “I’m aware of the meaning of the term ‘orphan dikes’” he told the committee, “ And also aware that prevention is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars in savings. We need to do more preventive maintenance work on Similkameen dikes.” Other directors agreed, Area “D”
Director Tom Siddon stressing the importance of inspecting earthen dams. Electoral Area “H” Director Brad Hope also agreed, noting that Eastgate had an dike issue that had finally been addressed. He also commented on the need to assess potential threats, describing the access corridor and slide potential at Missezula Lake near Princeton as a known “potential trap” that should be a priority that doesn’t take years to deal with. “We spend huge amounts when an emergency happens, when much less can be spent through preventive maintenance,” he observed. Area “C” Director Allan Patton cautioned the committee that recent large tax increases for many residents in the region has resulted in many angry taxpayers. Budget increases for unquantifiable maintenance programs might be a tough sell.

New chairs for Cawston Community Hall By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com Cawston Community Hall Society received 200 new chairs last week, thanks to a donation of $3,000 from Cawston Cold Storage in addition to a $3,000 donation from an anonymous source. The chairs were purchased from Source Furnishings in Kelowna after a committee made up of Bonna
Dawson, Wilfred Mennell and Bob McAtamney researched a number of options before making a recommendation to the hall board. The Cawston Community Hall Society is launching a “Buy a Chair” fund to help defray the rest of the total chair costs of $10,000. The chairs cost approximately $50 each. Individuals or groups can purchase a chair, as can local businesses. Donations to the “Buy a Chair”
Regional district briefs Hospital expansion business case The regional distric board of directors agreed to approve the issuance of up to $200,000 to the Interior Health Authority in order to move forward in the development of a business case for the Penticton Regional Hospital Patient Care Tower Project at the OSRHD meeting on June 6. The business plan will address costs to more definite levels including capital expenditures, equipment and operational costs to run the new facility. Former Okanagan - Penticton MLA Rick Thorpe was on hand to provide the OSRHD with some advice on how they might expedite moving the process forward with respect to the province. Thorpe has extensive knowledge involving the inner workings of provincial government from his years as MLA. “I believe the project is a go,” he told the RDOS directors, “ but
there are steps you have to go through. Stay focussed on the goal - which is to build the hospital. It’s a question of getting everyone’s energy focussed on the goal.” Directors expressed fears that development of a business case might be used as a means to stall or delay the project, and were looking for ways to ensure that it would continue to move ahead. Thorpe acknowledged that there was “a shelf life” to the business case, but it was unlikely that it would begin unless there was a degree of certainty that the project could be finished in five years. Changes needed to liquor licensing A bid by a number of wineries in the region to expand the range of liquor products that can be sold through winery restaurants received support “in principle” from the Agricultural Land Commission, but the Liquor Control and Licensing Act and associated licenses do not currently allow for this to occur.
fund can be deposited at the Cawston Post Office, care of Margaret Stewart. Donations over $25 are tax deductable. One hundred of the hall’s original chairs are being retained, and will be made available to rent. The rest of the chairs can be purchased for $5 or less, depending on their condition. If interested, contact Cory Van Heck. The Planning and Development Committee, in discussing the issue, concluded that restaurants must continue to apply to the licensing branch to have the rules changed. It was reported that the Solicitor General continued to work with wineries to work towards a change in licensing to allow B.C. grown and produced liquor products at wineries. The board felt this would be a more acceptable alternative to rezoning farm land. New Invasive Species Electoral Area “H” Director Brad Hope reported the discovery of a new invasive species in the RDOS - a weed known as the Rush Skeleton weed. It has never been here before, and was recently discovered on Highway 97 near OK Falls (the closest outbreak before now was near Vernon and Westside Rd. south of Fintry). A local in house crew hand pulled it to prevent seeds from forming and they will return later this summer/fall when it regrows to spray it.

Rising river dampens former farmworkers campground site By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com The Similkameen escaped the heaviest of rains predicted from a slow moving frontal system that covered a large part of Southern B.C. and Alberta midway through last week. Keremeos RCMP and the Keremeos Volunteer Fire Department responded to a potentially dangerous situation late in the evening on June 20, nonetheless. A rapidly rising Similkameen River spilled into the floodplain that was once the transient farmworkers campground, threatening a number of itinerant farmworkers who continue to use the site, even though it is no longer commissioned for such use. The KVFD arrived at the site, located behind Keremeos Ready Mix, at 10:45 on June 20 to find close to 40 campers on the floodplain. A number of campers had been temporarily stranded by river water that had risen into the flood channels cutting into the campground area. “It wasn’t a big deal,” KVFD Chief Jordy Bosscha said, “although it could have been.” Bosscha said that the department was able to set up a rope line across the flooding channel to provide an escape route for about 30 campers stranded on higher ground on the other side. He expressed surprise at the number of campers who had taken up residence
on the flats. “There were a number of cars, trucks and campers parked along the access route,” Bosccha also noted. On Friday morning, the river had subsided considerably. According to one of the campers, the river had dropped Photo by Steve Arstad considerably since the previous night. Several campers, including Leo, above, moved their tents to the “It was about top of the dike after the Similkameen began rising last week. waist high,” said Leo, indicating a nearby channel that ended,” he said.

Rockslide on Highway 3 results in road closure Contributed At 3:30 p.m., Sunday, June 23, the Keremeos Volunteer Fire Department, along with the RCMP and BC Ambulance service were called to a rock slide with power lines down and brush fire approximately 11 kilometres west of Keremeos. There were only a few large rocks on the highway, but the live power line that was down and blocking the two west bound lanes was the main safety issue for clos-
ing the highway for about two hours until, Fortis crews were able to isolate and ground the affected area. When Fortis crews were able to confirm the area safe, the highway was opened to single lane traffic and Keremeos fire and a 10 person forestry crew from Princeton attacked the fire. Keremeos fire crews cleared the scene by 7:30 p.m. while the forestry crew continued mop up.
Tulameen volunteer spirit praised at director’s board meeting By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com The Regional District Board of Directors praised the volunteer spirit of Tulameen residents at the June 20 regional district board meeting. The praise came on the heels of a directors motion instituted by Princeton Rural Director Brad Hope. Hope asked the board to award a building project to Romard Developments Inc. in the amount of $297,423.96 to build a roof structure over the Tulameen ice surface. The community has been working towards getting their ice surface covered since 2011, requesting the RDOS board to approve a grant application to the province’s Community Recreation Infrastructure Grant Program in December of that year. The ice surface covering project is known in the com-
munity as “Raise the Roof.” The RDOS was successful in their application and a $240,000 grant was obtained, along with $70,000 in community funding for the project. Eight proposals were submitted in a Request For Proposal issued in April of this year, ranging in price between $564,000 and $955,000. All the proposals were too costly for Tulameen’s budget. However, a number of locals put their heads together and came up with a bid pricing labour, materials and equipment at cost. Their submitted bid could achieve the goal within the approximate $300,000 amount of funds available. The value of in-kind efforts is estimated at $90,000, bringing the total value of the project to $400,000. The regional district board was generally supportive of Hope’s request, praising Tulameen for their
initiative in collaborating and working together to cut costs and make the project affordable for the community. Concerns raised were centred on the lack of a performance bond. Hope assured the board that the Raise the Roof group were already funded, and on budget or ahead of budget at this time. The board was also assured by Chief Adminstrative Officer Bill Newell that the community was the enitity accepting the risks involved. A timely approval from the board was of essence because the structural steel required a 12 week notice prior to on site delivery, if construction was to be complete before winter. The board approved the recommended motion - to award the Tulameen Ice Roof Structure project to Romard Developments Inc. in the amount of $297,423.96 inclusive of PST.

Editorial
Timely discussion The June 6 regional district’s Protective Services Committee discussion on emergency planning was timely, considering last week’s deluge and subsequent flooding of several communities in southern Alberta. During the committee discussion, regional district directors expressed some frustration at their inability to deal with potential threats to constituents and their property, citing problems getting taxpayers’ and the province’s blessing to spend money on prevention, rather than the multitudes more needed to pay for damage after natural disasters strike. In light of what happened in Alberta last week, it might be time for the public to get involved in the discussion. We all realize there are finite financial resources at government’s disposal - at least, we hope that everyone realizes that - and a limitless way in which that money can be spent. But we think the directors are on to something here. At least a few of the directors could also point to instances in their areas or municipalities where mitigation efforts might prevent or reduce a disaster. When we look at the ultimate cost of the damage done in Alberta, it would seem that with a potential for disaster on that scale, even the most token effort to reduce the threat would have some payback should disaster strike somewhere in the regional district. There is some evidence in emergency service statistics that indicate the role community fire departments play in serving the community is changing, as the traditional emergencies these groups attend decline statisically. Perhaps it is time for regional district communities to take a hard, considered look at annual firefighting budgets, looking at them from a perspective of disaster prevention, as opposed to disaster control.

Cabinet rookies handed hot files By Tom Fletcher Black Press There are nine new faces in Premier Christy Clark’s cabinet, seven of them elected to the B.C. legislature for the first time on May 14. They have been handed some of the hottest problems, and Clark’s marching orders in “mandate letters” for each ministry. And this is the start of a four-year term, when unpopular reforms are attempted. Take Amrik Virk, the former RCMP inspector from Surrey who’s suddenly in charge of advanced education. His mandate includes: “Review the student loan program to make recommendations for improvement to ensure the loan program is meeting the needs of today’s students.” Virk must also set targets to “match the skills we need with the skills we are graduating” and require post-secondary schools to “ensure student
seats are being filled.” B.C. can’t afford to keep cranking out university grads with $50,000 in debt and no job prospects in a system that’s subsidized 65 per cent. Virk will be working closely with Education Minister Peter Fassbender, who must “ensure seamless transitions” from high school to the workforce for post-secondary trades and apprenticeships. In his spare time, Fassbender is to overhaul the school district bargaining agency and achieve a 10-year peace with the teachers’ union. Justice Minister Suzanne Anton has worked as a Crown prosecutor, so she’ll have some insight into the system that still grapples with Stanley Cup rioters from two summers ago. Her orders are to get traffic tickets and other administrative penalties out of the courts, keep working on integrating police fiefdoms and generally treat the constipation that
afflicts law enforcement today. Transportation Minister Todd Stone’s first test was a grilling by the Vancouver media. Now he has to impose the ferry route reductions that have been worked on by two previous ministers, and push Metro Vancouver through a referendum on ways to fund its own transit. If more tolls or taxes are going to be implemented, now is the time. Coralee Oakes has made a political leap from Quesnel city hall to the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development. One of her key tasks is to invent a framework for a “rural dividend” from liquefied natural gas development in northwestern B.C. Oakes has to figure out how to “better provide provincial support” to sport and cultural organizations, but do it with no new money. All ministers have strict instructions to balance their lean budgets

and take part in the latest “core review” to identify government functions that can be sold, delegated or shut down. New Minister of International Trade Richmond’s Teresa Wat has to find a way to continue the growth of lumber and other exports to China, India and elsewhere on the Pacific Rim. On top of that, the always-delicate softwood lumber agreement with the U.S. expires in three years. In 2009, when B.C. cut stumpage rates for remote coastal areas to give communities much-needed employment. The Americans were livid, just as they were with our beetle-kill harvesting efforts. And the U.S.-directed environmental movement continues to target Canadian industries. Third-term MLA John Rustad gets aboriginal relations, with specific instructions to deal with gas and perhaps oil pipelines through his Nechako Lakes constituency.

Keremeos council reviews draft of new parks bylaw By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com Keremeos council heard from representatives of the B.C. Fruit Growers Association in a delegation during council’s regular meeting on June 17. President of the BCFGA, Jeet Dukhia, presented council with an industry update, highlighting the association’s strengths and weaknesses within the industry. Calling B.C.’s fruit production a “boutique” market based on its size, Dukhia noted that the B.C. industry is smaller, nimbler and smarter than its Washington competition, a market 30 times the size of B.C.’s. He also noted that Washington state government had provided 100 million dollars towards worker housing, where no assistance has been forthcoming here. Other comparisons illuminated in the presentation concerned other aspects of competitiveness (i.e., B.C. competes well on research and efficiency initiatives, but not on infrastructure). Council was very interested in the presentation, asking several questions following the BCFGA update. Keremeos Seniors Center Society sent council a letter requesting a letter of support for the senior’s center grant application for funding to upgrade the insulation and have an exterior stucco coat applied to the building. The grant funding would come from the New Horizons for Seniors Program. Council found no reason to deny the request. Chief Administrative Officer Laurie Taylor was recognized by the Canadian Association of Municipal Administrators for 35 years of municipal management service. Taylor told council that she has actually been involved in municipal management for 37 years, having served 14 different mayors, 83 councillors and having attended 1,200 council meetings. Congratulations were offered by Mayor Bauer. The village’s annual report for 2012 was presented for public scrutiny. There were no members of the public present in the gallery to ask questions or make submissions regarding the document. Council approved the Village of Keremeos Statement of Financial Information, also presented during the meeting. A draft of the parks bylaw was presented to council for scrutiny. The updated parks bylaw will replace the current bylaw which was introduced in 1979.
It also addresses the issue of providing RCMP with the power to remove persons from the parks for noncompliance of bylaws. Concerns addressed in the new legislation include advertising, animals, damage, encroachments, temporary overnight shelter, hours of operation, interference, nuisances, loitering, liquor, bathing restrictions, sales of goods and services, vehicles and other activities. What is perhaps most important in the parks bylaw update is the Loss of Access Rights section. With this legislation, new powers given to the CAO,
bylaw officer and RCMP will allow them to remove persons from the park or other community facilities who do not adhere to orders to comply with the village bylaws. Residents living near the park were glad to hear about the bylaw improvements. “I heard that council was dealing with new laws concerning the park,” said Twelfth Avenue resident Rocky Watt on June 18, adding that he was anxious to see the new bylaw implemented. The updated park bylaw will receive second reading on July 2.

Summer weather means increased traffic encounters between motorists and cyclists By Cpl. Martin Trudeau Keremeos RCMP Police would like to remind everyone that with nicer weather finally here, we can expect an increase in the number of cyclists we will be seeing on our roads. Cyclists of all ages and experience have already started to train and we must all share our roads, taking into consideration the safety of everyone. The rights and duties of cyclists are well described under Section 183 of the Motor Vehicle Act and specifies that a person operating a cycle on a highway has the same rights and duties as the driver of a vehicle. Cyclists should also be reminded that they must not ride abreast of another person operating a cycle on the roadway and must operate a cycle with reasonable consideration for other persons using the highway. Cyclists simply can’t ride safely on damaged or sandy shoulders and so motorists must be considerate of the space they need to practice their sport. On the same token, cyclists must also be aware of the risk associated with this activity and the proper use of hand signals to communicate and the wearing of high visibility clothing is paramount. Courtesy also goes a long way for everyone. Motorists must also consider that cyclists are much more affected by road debris and conditions like wind, pebbles, sand, bumps and holes than vehicles are and it is important to remain considerate of the space they require to safely enjoy their sport.

Lack of respect for private landowners’ rights To the Editor: The more letters Doreen Olson writes regarding the National Park the more desperate she seems to sound. She really has a total disregard for the intelligence of the general public and readers of the newspaper. She simply cannot point to one example of a crown land disposal that has affected our valley and it’s flora and fauna...none that I’m aware of. Further to this, what happens in the United States is none of our business. A declaration of protection upon private land is beyond ludicrous. You and I worked hard to own what we have and we already have regulatory bodies to deal with, even on private land. Regarding us looking after our private land so well there is no need for smoke blowing in that direction. As a steward of the land I no longer allow naturalists or bird
watchers on my property as I had done before. The last time I let them on to view birds I received a one half inch thick document from the government stating I had some delicate bird habitat....I knew that already, but alas they are not permitted back...pretty sad. Olson points to the fact that several parcels of private land have been sold...really.... what a concept...isn’t that our right? Then she asks what the new owner’s intentions are on their private land...I know the answer to that already...none of your business! And then just as a joke she adds... “will they allow trespass”...do you allow trespassing on your private property Doreen....I don’t on mine. As far as protection for the landscape the only truthful thing she has to say is that the national park is not a “perfect solution”....thankfully we have the guidlines from the LRMP for that! Ernie Marven, Cawston
To the Editor: To whom it may concern: Rebuttal to a letter written by Doreen Olson Coordinator of the South Okanagan Similkameen National Park Network In a letter originally written to the Penticton Chamber of Commerce, and subsequently printed in a few South Okanagan news papers (19 June, 2013), Doreen Olson, Coordinator of the South Okanagan Similkameen National Park Network, has made a number of inaccurate statements regarding HNZ Topflight. She misquoted portions of two letters that had been sent to HNZ from the Director General of Parks Canada. The following are actual excerpts from these letters, which should clarify the Parks Canada position, and to better explain our concerns regarding a National Park. May 26, 2006: “Thus we will work with you to accommodate your requirements to the extent possible within the broad context of the Canada National Parks Act and its regulation, and within an ecological integrity and visitor experience framework that emphasizes monitoring, reporting, evaluation and adaptive management to deal with issues that arise.” This means that HNZ Topflight’s business could be restricted by the Parks regulations, ecological assessments, and any visitors to the park. Business owners, around the Okanagan, can understand our reluctance to support a concept that may significantly restrict our ability to provide our core product. Feb 27, 2008: “I would like to reiterate…
that Parks Canada will accommodate the flight training school activities, under permit, subject to an environmental assessment and an agreement outlining the management of the activity.” Once again our activities would be controlled and restricted by Parks Canada. Another of Doreen’s statements was that HNZ was keeping these letters secret. Both these letters were forwarded on April 2, 2008, by fax, to 10 individuals including MP’s, MLA’s, the Mayor of Penticton, the Chairman of the RDOS, and the president of the Penticton Chamber of Commerce. No secrets here. Doreen wrote that “less than 10 per cent of HNZ’s helicopter landings occur in the national park concept area.” The South Okanagan Grasslands component of the 2010 Draft Park Concept area is more than double the size of the provincial protected areas in that parcel. As such, about 20 per cent of the HNZ landing zones are in this area. This is enough to significantly disrupt the training. Complete modules will be missed from the course, and as a result, a national park in this area would drastically reduce the value of our training and the viability of our business in Penticton. Until HNZ receives an unreserved guarantee that our business can have unlimited and unfettered access to our traditional training grounds, we will not be supporting the creation of a national park in an area that is already sufficiently protected. Mr. Jan Rustad, Chief Flying Instructor / Manager Business, Penticton
To the Editor: Folks keep asking me to write more history in your paper. We are told that formal education is a necessary part of life, but what about those who never had it? My first wife’s family were never in school. They were brought up in the deep woods on a mountain top at “Dot” B.C., that most people never heard of. They never knew what a school looked like. There were eight of them. I was brought up on a prairie farm and after grade nine I quit school to run a threshing outfit. I built a windmill with a generator using poplar poles for a tower and put the first electricity in our farm house. I have flown aircraft, fired and run steam locomotives, was an automotive technician,
did watch repairs and jewellery, and did all my own carpentry, including the construction of my own home with leaded glass windows. Now, people are at me at 92 years to keep writing all this history. Are you never going to let me quit and have a rest? My present wife and I are still in our own home and doing all our own housework plus a full garden to supply us with food and flowers. After all, there is no future if we give up, is there? I haven’t got time to die, and if I did, I wouldn’t know how I would get my grave dug. As ever Wilf Miller, Keremeos

The Review, Thursday, June 27, 2013 — Page 15
O
ne of our stranger traits as human beings is our willingness to hang passionately onto ideas in the face of increasing and eventually overwhelming evidence they are wrong. A good example is our reluctance to give up the belief that our Earth is the centre of everything, with the Sun, Moon, planets and the rest of the cosmos circling round it. To our ancient ancestors it was obvious. The Sun, Moon, stars and planets all rose in the east and set in the west. We could not feel the Earth moving, so it was common sense that everything in the sky was circling around us. As a rough and ready picture of the universe it worked. Since the idea of our centrality in Creation lay at the core of many religious beliefs, our Earth-centric picture became “Official”, with little future in arguing with it. However, as astronomical instruments improved, and the data got better and available in large quantities, problems appeared. One of the most serious came from the planets. When measuring their changing positions with respect to the background stars, their motion turned out not to be what we would expect if we are looking at something circling around us. If that were the case, we would just see the planets moving smoothly, in one direction; instead we see them suddenly doubling back, making a loop and then resuming their original direction. On the other hand, this is exactly what we would see if we are on a planet circling around the Sun, looking at the other planets, which are doing the same thing. We have all been on a roundabout sometime or other. Remember how our surroundings behaved as we were carried round and round? In the 16th Century Nikolaus Kopernikus proposed that the Earth and other planets circled the Sun, but dared not publish his results until he was about to die. Galileo suggested the same thing in the early 17th Century and ran into problems with the religious establishment. Unfortunately for the authorities, the cat was now out of the bag and the new vision of the cosmos was spreading rapidly across the world. Later that century, Johannes Kepler put the suncentred view of the Solar System onto even firmer ground. Then still in that cosmologically explosive century, Isaac Newton formulated the theory of gravity and provided the tools to put the motions of things in the sky on a firm, mathematical basis. In the 14th Century, William of Ockham came up with one of those blisteringly simple ideas that are useful guides today. It is now known as “Occamís Razor”. Basically this involves cutting ideas down to their bare essentials, and if one can explain something using simple, known things, there is no need to invoke unknown things. Start with the simplest solution. However, it is fascinating to see how we are also very good at avoiding such wisdom. Some of the ideas concocted to explain what we see in the sky while keeping the Earth in the centre of everything must have had William spinning in his grave. Of course today we are more logical and scientifically aware, and no longer passionately hang onto failed ideas. Is that true? Look for Mars, appearing low in the dawn twilight. Venus and Mercury lie close together in the sunset glow. Saturn is high in the southern sky. The Moon will reach last quarter on the 29th.

Thinking of buying your first home? One of your most important decisions will be choosing the right type of mortgage to make the purchase. With the current low interest rates, you may believe that almost any mortgage product is a low-risk choice. But, keep in mind that interest rates could be higher when that mortgage comes up for renewal. Here’s what could happen: You have a $200,000 mortgage with a five year fixed rate of 4% interest, amortized over 25 years, with a monthly payment of approximately $1,052. After five years, you will have to renew your mortgage. Even though your mortgage balance is now only $174,107, if the fixed interest rate at that time is 6%, and your remaining amortization period is 20 years, your monthly payment now goes up to $1,240; if the fixed rate is 7%, your monthly payment jumps to $1,339 a month. Will you be able to manage an increase like that? Make a very careful assessment of “how much house you can afford”. Look at potential income and lifestyle changes, like starting a family or increasing its size, and decide now if you’ll be able to afford a future increase in your mortgage payments. Next, decide which mortgage type, fixed rate or variable, is best for you. Your choice depends on your personal situation. A fixed-rate mortgage offers the security of a locked-in interest rate for the term you choose, typically five years, and the same mortgage payment for the term – providing peace of mind and predicable budgeting. A variable rate mortgage usually offers a lower interest rate than the fixed-rate type but the interest rate is linked to the prime rate which will fluctuate and can impact your

MANAGING Your Money total interest costs and your monthly mortgage payment. Many lenders will allow you to lock a variable rate mortgage into a fixed-rate mortgage during your term. A blended rate mortgage is a combination of fixed and variable rate financing, combining the benefits and risks of each mortgage type. Your best mortgage choice should be based on your personal financial objectives and overall financial plan. You’ll get the best advice for what’s best for you from your professional advisor.
