Locked out FortisBC workers reject latest offer

FIRE PREVENTION WEEK

They’ll need more firewood on the picket lines as the summer long battle between Fortis BC and its electrical employees looks like it will stretch on into the colder months. After more than three months on the picket line locked out International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 213 have voted to reject the recommendations of mediator, Vince Ready, continuing the dispute with Fortis BC. “I think that given the circumstances and the fact that they’ve been out for so long already it’s sending a strong message,” said Rod Russell, business manager for IBEW Local 213. “The reason they’re saying no is a lot on principle, they’re being starved into submission but they’re not accepting that.” Ready presented his recommendations to the two sides after two People are days of mediation talks, Sept. 25 and 26. suffering to The company various accepted the recomdegrees and mendations for settlethere’s a lot of ment of the dispute and the bargaining comemotion but mittee for the union I never heard presented the proposed agreement to the memone person bership without recomsay, ‘It’s a mending acceptance or good deal.’” rejection of the deal.

Annual tax sale puts properties on the block BY SHERI REGNIER Times Staff

Three years of tax arrears saw more than a dozen Trail properties go up for auction at city hall Sept. 30. According to the local government act, municipalities can hold an annual sale of properties with taxes that have not been paid for three years, the last Monday in September. Prior to the public auction, the city is required to post the delinquent properties in at least two issues of the local newspaper, and this year, there were 32 properties on that list.

Advertising the property address puts the owner on notice, and in Greater Trail, that usually means taxes are paid up before the end of the month. This year 14 properties went to public auction at the tax sale, confirmed Rino Merlo, Trail’s deputy director of finance. “The total taxes outstanding on these properties was $114,546,” said Merlo. “With an upset price of $122,534.” The upset price refers to outstanding taxes, interest, penalties and fees, which is the minimum price the city must receive at time of sale.

Three individuals attended the 2013 tax sale, but because they did not bid on the properties, as per the local government act, the city was declared the winner, added Merlo. The owner of the tax sale property still has a one-year redemption period to pay the upset price and reclaim their land without losing the title. “Council may, by bylaw, extend for only one year,” explained Merlo. “This is possible if the upset price has not been paid in full within the first year and See FRUITVALE, Page 2

Fruitvale had eight lots go to auction

The total number of properties advanced to tax sale in 2012 was 12, with all but two of the properties redeemed. Warfield and Montrose had no

properties to auction, however Fruitvale had eight lots proceed to sale, which was unexpected, said Lila Cresswell, the village’s chief administrative officer. “It has been many years since we’ve had a property go up for public auction,” said Cresswell. “Usually at the last minute the taxes get paid up. “It was a surprise to have that many properties, and no one to show up for the sale.” With no bids at the public auction, the lots, which are all on one property, were picked up by the village for the upset price of $34,385.

Ceremony marks 50th anniversary of Kootenay Pass By Brian Lawrence Creston Valley Advance

About 300 people attended the 50th anniversary celebration for the Kootenay Pass, held on Sunday afternoon at the top of the Highway 3 pass between Creston and Salmo. Organized by the Creston Museum, with the assistance of the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure and Yellowhead Road and Bridge (YRB), the event included historical displays and a commemorative ribbon-cutting, which briefly stopped traffic. “We find excuses to make local history fun and enjoyable,” said museum manager Tammy Hardwick. Cars lined up for the first crossing on Oct. 13, 1963, totalled 2,700 — the creation of the all-weather route was a significant event. “That really shows what it meant to them back then,” said Hardwick. “This was a good opportunity to showcase that.” During speeches by elected officials and others, Lower Kootenay Band Chief Jason Louie explained that the Ktunaxa people followed game trails along that route hundreds of years earlier. “We are also in their home,” he said. “If it was not for those animals, we would not have access to this territory.” Regional District of Central Kootenay Area C director Larry Binks, who represents the east side of the pass, said that the route marked a big change for both health care and agriculture, with improved access for both. “What a wonderful testament to the people who went before, and the men and women who worked on it!” said Binks, who then thanked contractor YRB for keeping it going, earning a round of applause. RDCK Area G director Hans Cunningham recalled that people used to head up the pass for a Sunday drive to check out the scenery, and said he is still impressed with the road. “The highway is only getting better,” he said. Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure district operations manager Hugh Eberle explained that the construction allowed the elimination of tolls on the Kootenay Lake ferries and Nelson’s Big Orange Bridge, also reducing travel time between the east and west. The project, which had been in the planning stages for several years before seasonal construction ran from 1957-1963, cost $13.6 million, and it remains the country’s highest mountain pass. “It proved that highway engineering can actually work miracles,” he said.

Students get first-hand look at firehall

Fire Chief for a Day event kicks off Fire Prevention Week By Guy Bertrand Times staff

A group of Greater Trail elementary school students had a day to remember as the Kootenay Boundary Regional Fire Department kicked off Fire Prevention Week with its Fire Chief for a Day event on Friday. Students from six local schools were chosen to participate in the event to help promote fire awareness. Last month, firefighters visited schools to preach the message of fire prevention and gave each student, from kindergarten to Grade 4, a chance to enter their name for a draw to be fire chief for a day. Five students, Connor Drake a Grade 1 student from Fruitvale Elementary; Taylor Leyland, a Grade 3 student from Webster School; Reuben Demmier, a Grade 2 student from Rossland school; Lucy Peters, a Grade 1 student from Glenmerry School; Hanna Krampl, a Grade 1 student from Rossland's french immersion program, took part in the day. A sixth student was selected, Kendal Derosa of St. Michael's School, but was unable to attend. The day began with each student getting

a ride to the regional firehall aboard a fire truck. A tour of the facility, snacks and a demonstration of some of the equipment made for a busy morning for the enthusiastic young chiefs. “The kids have a blast,” said fire fighter Kyle Boutin. He explained the Fire Chief for a Day program and school demonstrations help educate kids about the safety and people involved in fighting fires. “It gets them familiar with our gear so if we show up at their house they're not afraid of us.” He explained that familiarity allows young children to approach the firemen trying to help them evacuate from a potentially dangerous situation. Boutin said they review fire escape plans with kids and allow them to see what goes on behind the scenes at the firehall. Of course, the young chiefs have a slightly different perspective on what they took from the day. “I liked everything,” said Peters. Leyland preferred “the big fire trucks,” while Demmier enjoyed touring the fire rescue boat. Krampl said “seeing all the equipment,” was a memorable part of her day. However, Drake had a more gastronomical delight from

The package included various items for kids but a few things for a kitchen, like measuring cups and a pot holder, that feature fire prevention reminders.

“Our goal is to spread the word on fire prevention,” added fireman Jason Langham. “This allows the kids to see the equipment and see what we do.”

No mediation talks scheduled with union and FortisBC FROM PAGE 1 employees. However, we remain committed to negotiation and open to returning to the bargaining table.” The disappointment felt by the company is echoed by the local bargaining committee but

the union representatives see darker motives in Fortis BC’s bargaining strategy. “This company never came to bargain, they came to dictate,” said committee member, Albert Bortolussi. “The rate increases were rea-

sonable, everything else was concessionary. “In today’s climate it just looks to me like union busting tactics and we’re the guinea pigs. “We’re the smallest union and if we cave they’ll just take

the same strategy into bargaining with the next union down the line.” At this point no further mediation talks are scheduled between the company and the almost 230 employees working in generation, transmission,

and distribution of electricity. The lockout affects employees and Fortis BC customers in Southern B.C. ranging from Princeton in the West, through the Okanagan and West Kootenay to Creston in the east.

Provincial

Province announces review of speed limits By Jeff Nagel Black Press

Transportation Minister Todd Stone wants B.C. residents to weigh in on a potential increase in highway speed limits now under consideration. Stone announced the formal review of speed limits Friday in Kamloops although he had previously indicated it was coming and technical work is already underway. The Coquihalla Highway already has a speed limit of 110 kilometres per hour but traffic there does an average speed of 118, while drivers routinely exceed the posted limit of 90 or 100 on many other provincial highways. “There’s no question the Coquihalla is a prime candidate for an adjustment in the speed limit,” Stone said, also listing sections of Highway 1 in the Lower Mainland and around Kamloops as well as the Cariboo Connector towards Prince George. It’s been a decade since B.C. last reviewed speed limits. Stone said any increases would involve mainly rural provincial highways between communities, not highways in urban areas of the Lower Mainland, although which specific corridors to adjust will be subject to public input. He said a higher speed limit in some stretches of highway

has been made possible by billions of dollars in major road upgrades since the last review in 2003, including 180 additional kilometres of four- or six-lane highway. He also said vehicles are “much safer today than 10 years ago” as a result of traction stability control, anti-lock brakes and other improvements. Stone cited a 28 per cent drop in injury-causing collisions since 2003. And he said research increasingly suggests the greatest danger isn’t necessarily speeding itself, but driving at a much different speed than most other drivers. A minority of 15 per cent of drivers who don’t keep up with the flow or who speed excessively are at greater risk of a crash than the other 85 per cent of drivers who may be going somewhat over the posted speed limit, he said. Stone stressed decreases in the speed limit are also possible. “This review is not about increasing speed limits, it’s about making sure we have the right speed limits.” And he said there will be “no Autobahn” in B.C. where speed limits are lifted altogether. “I am not interested in making any changes that are going to compromise the safety of motor-

The speed limit review aims to generate recommendations by next spring, when the Legislature reconvenes. Public forums on the issue will be held in Kamloops, Chilliwack, Vancouver, Nanaimo, Prince George, Dawson Creek, Cranbrook and Kelowna starting in November, with potentially more sites still to be added. One group advocating for higher speed limits is Sense BC, which was behind a recent viral video making the case for change. Sense BC’s Ian Tootill said even a 10 kilometre an hour increase on the Coquihalla to 120 wouldn’t be enough to match the prevailing speeds in summer. “I’m not suggesting the Coquihalla should be 150 or 160 but it shouldn’t be 120,” he said. Tootill argues speed limits should be set at the upper end of what’s safe – allowing those who can drive that speed to legally do so – while most motorists would go slower. Others reacting on social media argued faster speeds would compromise safety and burn more fuel. Some cities have also advocated for a lower default speed limit on urban streets of 40 kilometres per hour instead of 50, but that idea was defeated by a majority of delegates at last month’s Union of B.C. Municipalities convention.

Unprepared hikers rescued

Crews set out at about 10 p.m. Sunday and Jones says the two were found just before 4 a.m. Monday in a rocky area on a remote section of Mount Seymour. Jones described the area as “heinous,” an alpine hiking made even more treacherous by overnight rain. To complicate things, both men were wearing runners, not the heavy hiking boots needed to clamber through the rocks and bush, so rescuers had to carry in the appropriate footwear for the pair, who were already cold and wet from the unexpected night out. Crews were slowly walking the two men to safety as dawn broke on Monday and Jones said a helicopter was standing by in case anything went wrong.

National Quebec

Cop tasked with watching bikers is accused of helping them

THE CANADIAN PRESS MONTREAL - Quebec’s latest corruption scandal has reached into the heart of law enforcement, with a longtime organized-crime investigator accused of colluding with the criminals he’d been watching. Benoit Roberge was the Montreal police force’s leading expert on biker gangs, having investigated their activity and testifed at trials to put them away. His spouse, meanwhile, still works as a prosecutor specializing in organized crime. Now Roberge is under arrest. He is accused of selling sensitive information about ongoing police investigations to biker gangs and he now faces four charges, including two counts of gangsterism. On Saturday, he was arrested by fellow police officers. When he was stopped he was allegedly in the company of an individual linked to the Hells Angels crime gang. Roberge appeared in court on Monday on four charges: one count of obstructing justice, one count of breach of trust and the two counts related to gangster-

ism. He will return Thursday for a bail hearing. The former detective-sergeant retired from the Montreal police force in August. The longtime organized-crime investigator had most recently been assigned to a specialized unit comprising different police forces that focused on biker activities. Since then, he had been heading Revenue Quebec’s intelligence-gathering unit as of March. The provincial tax agency said in a statement that Roberge has been suspended pending the outcome of the criminal investigation. Provincial police Insp. Michel Forget said Monday that police thought there might have been information being leaked for at least a few months. Such suspected “irregularities” triggered an internal investigation that led to Roberge. “The investigation will demonstrate what period of time exactly Mr. Roberge leaked information on organized-crime investigations,” Forget said. “But do we suspect (it happened) for all of his career? We are not there yet.”

Harper to boycott Commonwealth THE CANADIAN PRESS NUSA DUA, Indonesia - Prime Minister Stephen Harper has used the platform of one international leaders’ summit to fire a torpedo into the hull of another. Harper stepped to the sidelines of the AsiaPacific Economic Cooperation gathering on this idyllic Indonesian tourist island Monday to formally confirm he’ll boycott next month’s Commonwealth summit in Sri Lanka. Perhaps more significantly, Harper threatened that Canada could cut the purse strings to the 64-year-old Commonwealth organization due to ongoing human rights abuses by the host Sri Lankan government. The prime minister cited everything from the impeachment of a chief justice to allegations of extra judicial killings and disappearances and the jailing of political opponents and journalists. “In the past two years we have not only seen no improvement in these areas, in almost all of these areas we’ve seen a considerable rolling back, a considerable worsening of the situation,” Harper said in a brief availability at the APEC summit site. “Based on that, I have made a decision I will not attend the Commonwealth leaders’ summit this fall.” Harper said he made the move with “somewhat of a heavy heart,” but he has been threatening the boycott since the last Commonwealth leaders’ meeting in Australia in 2011, so it comes as little surprise. But his frank displeasure with entire organization, and sabre rattling over funding, raises the stakes. Canada contributes about $20 million annually to various Commonwealth initiatives, includ-

Nova Scotia

Candidates make final pitch before election THE CANADIAN PRESS HALIFAX - The leaders of Nova Scotia’s three main political parties focused their final pitch to undecided voters on the final full day of campaigning before Tuesday’s provincial election. Two of the leaders began their day Monday in seat-rich Halifax, a bastion of NDP support in recent years, before fanning out across the province to visit key battleground ridings. “There’s no question there is a huge volume of seats here in metro and we need to be part of that, we need to win some of those seats,” said Liberal Leader Stephen McNeil at one campaign stop in the city, urging party workers to speak with disaffected NDP and Progressive Conservative supporters. “I would ask you to forget about the traditional way families have voted and the way communities have voted. Reach out and ask everyone you see for their support.” He implored Nova Scotians who have yet to make up their minds to examine whether

each party’s promises are feasible, repeating his message that the campaign is about trust. “I would encourage them to look at all three parties and determine for themselves which platform is doable, which party can they trust and which leader can they trust to deliver on the commitments we’ve made over the last 30 days,” he said. McNeil, whose commitments include less government spending and a cut to the harmonized sales tax as long as the books are balanced, is wrapping up a three-day tour where he is aiming to

visit all but a handful of the province’s 51 ridings before ballots are cast. NDP Premier Darrell Dexter also set his sights on undecided voters as he toured the province’s south shore before visiting Halifax. “There are an unusually high number of undecided voters in this election and obviously they’re going to be making up their minds today,” Dexter said during a stop in Chester Bain. “This is a phenomenon we’ve seen in many other elections as well.” He said voters should give the NDP a second chance after

four years in power because he wants to continue the progress the province has made, citing the federal shipbuilding contract, a balanced budget and fewer emergency room closures as his government’s achievements. “We have a strong program we have articulated over the course of the campaign,” he said. “They know they can rely on us to build on this strong foundation. They also understand

the risk that comes with Mr. McNeil and the Liberals, which is essentially throwing away what we have and starting over.” Progressive Conservative Leader Jamie Baillie travelled to his hometown of Truro, where he agreed there was a large group of undecided voters across the province. But he said voters have decided on one thing: it’s time to get rid of the governing NDP.

ing $5 million to the secretariat that runs the organization, making Canada the second largest financial contributor. The grouping of 54 countries formerly under British rule is facing an existential crisis in a global community crowded with international clubs - including those like the Pacific Rim leaders’ summit here that are explicitly focused on trade and commerce. Canada could skip a year at APEC - U.S. President Barack Obama was forced by Washington’s budget crisis to miss the Bali summit and sent Secretary of State John Kerry in his stead - with barely a notice. But any extended Canadian absence or cash withdrawal from the Commonwealth could be fatal to the tottering enterprise. Sri Lanka holds the chair for the next two years. “Obviously we will examine our engagement and our financing of the Commonwealth, which is quite considerable, to make sure that we are wisely using taxpayer dollars and reflecting Canadian values,” Harper said. “But this is a decision the Commonwealth has made and the Commonwealth will have to live with it.” Harper held bilateral meetings Monday on the sidelines of the APEC summit with the prime ministers of Australia and New Zealand, two other significant Commonwealth players. Harper’s office said the Commonwealth decision was not discussed - however New Zealand Prime Minister John Key later told reporters he did in fact raise the matter with Harper. “Definitely, yes, I’m going,” Key said of Sri Lanka. Australia’s Tony Abbott also told reporters he will attend. “You do not make new friends by rubbishing your old friends or abandoning your old friends,” said the Australian. While noting every country makes its own calls on such matters, Key said that “if we decided you were going to have to meet New Zealand standards to attend a meeting, there’d be lots of countries we wouldn’t go to.”

B.C. marijuana referendum misguided

I

won’t be signing the “Sensible B.C.” petition to demand a provincewide referendum on marijuana enforcement. You shouldn’t either, and here are a few reasons why. Let me start by saying I’ve been calling for legalization and regulation of pot for 20 years, to conserve police resources and reduce violent crime. Our war on drugs is a failure even for heroin and cocaine, and marijuana is obviously much easier to produce. But the current effort led by Dana Larsen, B.C.’s clown prince of pot, is not only misguided, it’s dangerous. The petition does not propose legalization. It seeks to impose a provincial law that would stop B.C. police from using any resources for simple possession charges. This would create a loophole in the federal drug law. So what would that do? It would protect otherwise

innocent customers of the current illegal marijuana trade, while leaving the criminal distribution business in place. For a closer look at that, I recommend reports from the Surrey Six murder trial now underway, or the upcoming case against three accused assassins of Red Scorpion gangster Jonathan Bacon in Kelowna. Larsen’s loony law would tie police hands when they are trying to hold someone on a lesser charge while they search for evidence of something nastier. This is a source of many simple possession charges today. Police chiefs have a different idea, asking for the option of treating simple possession as a ticket offence to keep the court time to a minimum. Both of these notions have the same obvious flaws. They don’t deal with sales to minors and they divert no revenue to government, leaving most of that in the

hands of criminal dealers who buy cocaine, guns and fancy cars. Colorado and Washington have gone the legalization route, so far without interference from their federal government. These states need money, and they don’t need more crime or ill-considered hippy gesture politics. Meanwhile in Ottawa, Health Canada is trying to convert a poorly regulated mess of small-scale medical marijuana licences to a free-market system of

commercial producers. Local politicians tore a strip off Health Canada officials at their recent convention, after years of warnings that federal licences were scattered at unknown locations, often used as fronts for larger grow-ops. Mission Coun. Dave Hensman predicted that when a grower gets a letter cancelling his licence, he’s more likely to roll up a big joint with it than to shut down. Burnaby Coun. Nick Volkow suggested the response would echo an old Cheech and Chong routine: “Dave’s not here, man.” Here’s another reason not to support Larsen: the conduct of his organizers. One fellow set up a petition table at, of all places, the Terry Fox Hometown Run in Port Coquitlam. After scrawling “pot cures cancer” on the table, he proceeded to interrupt speeches by cancer survivors and the run itself by yelling the same false

slogan. You can imagine how people with terminal cancer and their loved ones would react. Some would know that marijuana may alleviate side effects of chemotherapy, just as it can ease suffering for some multiple sclerosis patients. But the suggestion of a cure is as cruel as it is moronic. Larsen’s “cannibus” has been rolling around B.C., reaping uncritical media coverage. It even blundered into the recent Walk for Reconciliation in Vancouver, an event to mark the end of federal hearings into the effects of residential schools on aboriginal children. I wouldn’t support the Larsen bunch for anything, unless it involved them looking for jobs. Just say no. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalNews.com

TV LISTINGS

‘Lucky 7’ not so lucky THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK - The ABC drama “Lucky 7” has won a dubious derby as the first television show of the new season to be cancelled. ABC said Friday the show is gone after two episodes. The show is about a group of lottery winners. It’ll be replaced on Tuesday night’s schedule temporarily by reruns of the network’s hit show “Scandal.” “Lucky 7” is a remake of a British series. It even counted Steven Spielberg as one of its executive producers. It focused on seven gas station employees from Queens who struck it rich.

Letters & Opinion Letters to the editor

Is worker solidarity dead?

Some right-wing pundits in our media seem to live in a world of make-believe when bragging about the relatively low number of unemployed in Canada. The fact that a large and growing proportion of the socalled employed are part-time and temporary jobs is thereby conveniently overlooked. With more and more employers looking for a flexible workforce - low pay and few benefits - an ever wider divide in income is created between people in low-skilled work and those in full-time employment. The five largest employers in the U.S., including Walmart and Mc Donald’s all pay close to the minimum wage. My guess; not far different from the same franchises in Canada. Estimated as about 30 per cent below the official poverty line. Those on the wrong side of that divide find themselves pretty well between a rock and a hard place, a vicious circle where, because of short in income, they are compelled to shop at the very places that pay starvation wages. At one time union wages

had a huge influence on wages in general, but it would be foolish to think that the pittance payed to this growing segment of workers will not have an influence in suppressing wages on the right of the divide. To dismiss or ignore this part of the working population would be short sighted in view of current developments. And surely, more can and should be expected on the part of the Canadian Labour Congress to include them - even when not unionized - in the overall scheme of union policy. It is often said that if there is a will to work a job can be found, but this is sheer nonsense when we look at the numbers. It is only a few decades ago that Cominco ( Teck ) employed 4000 people. Today I believe that figure to be about 1300. The attrition in manufacturing - lending itself more to outright automation through the use of robotics, and I might add, the export of jobs to lowwage countries - is far worse. Making it rather obvious that the age of full employment is long gone. And it’s just not

feasible to put everyone to work ‘fracking’. When we look at the obscene profits of banks and some corporations it should not be impossible to go to a more equitable distribution of the nation’s wealth. To move from a minimum wage to a ‘living wage’, allowing everyone a decent standard of living. For too long an attitude of ‘ I’m OK Jack ‘ has prevailed, with the principles of solidarity seemingly laying dormant in the minds of many. It was encouraging therefore to see some 100 members of local 480 to put on a show of support for the Fortis BC workers currently locked out. But in days gone by that number could’ve easily been a thousand. As for now it would not be amiss for most of us to muster some of the old spirit of solidarity and think what it must be like for those on the wrong side of that divide, those working for minimum wages, to nevertheless serve with courtesy and a smile. Peter van Iersel Fruitvale

Customs and cops do a great job

I like to watch the TV shows about Canadian Border Security and To Serve and Protect. It’s amazing the kind of people these agents have to deal with and sometimes the verbal abuse. I think about our local borders and areas that are patrolled by the RCMP. The American and Canadian Border have some of the best and politest agents that look after the defense of the countries by dealing with people crossing the border coming and going.

I have been a landed immigrant since June, 1969 and cross the border many times during a year. These agents have a particular job to do and I appreciate their efforts. It doesn’t bother me if they want to search my car and ask me questions. That is part of their job and when they finish, we should thank them for doing their job of protecting the countries. If you are always honest with your answers, and declare all you should, you don’t have any-

thing to worry about. The police also have a difficult job. It’s not always like play time, while they are doing what is expected of them. Sure, we live in a fairly low crime area but they are on call for any emergency that comes up. No matter what the weather is like, they are ready to do their job. A hearty thank you to all the Police and Customs Agents for a great job. Lowry May Trail

National anthem should include everyone An editorial from the Winnipeg Free Press There has been some resistance to changing the lyrics of the national anthem to ensure the patriotism of men, women, girls and boys alike is invoked with the words “in all of us command.” Some, including NDP Leader Tom Mulcair, believe messing with a good thing will invite a flood of grievances about the lyrics that O Canada could not withstand. That defies the history of the song.

O Canada was a favourite for decades, treated as the de facto national song long before Parliament in 1980 officially recognized it as the national anthem. It, in fact, underwent numerous alterations since Montreal judge Robert Stanley Weir in 1908 penned English lyrics to the French song, which put to music an 1880 poem by another Quebec jurist, Sir Adolphe-Basile Routhier. Judge Weir’s original song was inclusive, noting the nation called upon the true patriot love that

“thou dost in us command.” In 1913, for unknown reasons, this was changed to “in all our sons command.” This is an evident problem. A group of thoughtful Canadian women once again is calling upon the Harper government to restore the original lyrics, in a modern form, to recognize all of Canada’s patriots, men and women. The demand has been rebuffed before, without basis. Women have been excluded for 100 years now. It is time to include them in the anthem.

BURSARIES HANDED OUT TO COLLEGE STUDENTS

DUNLOP, MALCOLM ARTHUR — It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden but peaceful passing of Malcolm Arthur Dunlop otherwise known as “Art.” Born December 4, 1923 – died September 18, 2013. He is survived by his children, Arthur John (Ellen) of Rossland, BC, Kelly of Campbell River, Terry (Janet) of Victoria, Camille (Eduardo) of Langley and Sherri (Glenn) of Airdrie, AB, his brother, Jim and sister, Muriel Sawyer of Chilliwack, BC. He has 14 grandchildren and 5 great-grandchildren plus many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his loving wife (Ramona) and his daughter, Susan. Art was born in North Battleford, Sask. and lived in Rossland for 60 years, retired after 40 years at Cominco, and relocated to Chilliwack, BC, in 2007. He loved to golf, play pool and spend many fond years at Christina Lake, camping and boating. Donations can be made to the Heart & Stroke Foundation. He will be greatly missed and always loved by his family and many friends.

RABBI OVADIA YOSEF

Death of Israeli religious scholar leaves huge void

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS JERUSALEM - To his supporters, Rabbi Ovadia Yosef was a revered spiritual sage who empowered masses of disenfranchised Sephardic Jews. Among secular Israelis, he was widely perceived as a medieval figure, bedecked in flowing robes and occasionally given to bizarre rants. But through his control of the Shas political party, Yosef wielded influence over all Israelis. His death Monday leaves a gaping hole that could see the party splinter, reshaping Israeli politics yet again. Yosef, a religious scholar and spiritual leader of Israeli Jews of Middle Eastern descent, spent his lifetime transforming the downtrodden Sephardic community into a potent political force. Yet the 93-year-old rabbi left no clear successor, raising questions about the future of Shas. “We’ve been left orphans,” the party’s political leader, Aryeh Deri, wailed at a funeral ceremony Monday evening. “We have no father. We have no leader.” Yosef’s death set off a tremendous wave of public mourning. Tens of thousands of people poured into the streets of religious neighbourhoods after his death, crying, chanting prayers for the dead and tearing their clothes in a show of grief. His funeral brought large parts of Jerusalem to a standstill. Police said some 700,000 people attended, making it the largest funeral in the country’s history. A black-clad sea of mourners engulfed the van carrying Yosef’s body to the cemetery, preventing it from moving as dozens of security men pushed the crowd back. It took hours for the van to inch toward the cemetery where the body was then taken to the burial site.

Three researchers share Nobel Prize in medicine

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS STOCKHOLM, Sweden Americans James Rothman and Randy Schekman and German-born researcher Thomas Suedhof won the 2013 Nobel Prize in medicine on Monday for discoveries on how hormones, enzymes and other key substances are transported within cells. This traffic control system keeps activities inside cells from descending into chaos and has helped researchers gain a better understanding of a range of diseases including diabetes and disorders affecting the immune system, the committee said. The discoveries have helped doctors diagnose a severe form of epilepsy and immune deficiency diseases in children, Nobel committee secretary Goran Hansson said. In the future, scientists hope the research could lead to medicines against more common types of epilepsy, diabetes and other metabol-

ism deficiencies, he said. Rothman, 62, is a professor at Yale University while Schekman, 64, is at the University of California, Berkeley. Suedhof, 57, joined Stanford University in 2008. Schekman said he was awakened at 1 a.m. at his home in California by the chairman of the prize committee and was still suffering from jetlag after returning from a trip to Germany the night before. “I wasn’t thinking too straight. I didn’t have anything elegant to say,” he told The Associated Press. “All I could say was ‘Oh my God,’ and that was that.” He called the prize a wonderful acknowledgment of the work he and his students had done and said he knew it would change his life. “I called my lab manager and I told him to go buy a couple bottles of Champagne and expect to have a celebration with my lab,” he said. The Nobel committee said

www.MyAlternatives.ca

the three researchers work on “vesicle traffic” - the transport system of our cells helped scientists understand how “cargo is delivered to the right place at the right time” inside cells. Vesicles are tiny bubbles that act as cargo carriers. “Imagine hundreds of thousands of people who are travelling around hundreds of miles of streets; how are they going to find the right way? Where will the bus stop and open its doors so that people can get out?” said Hansson, the committee’s secretary. “There are similar problems in the cell, to find the right way between the different organelles and out to the surface of the cell.” In the 1970s, Schekman discovered a set of genes that were required for vesicle transport, while Rothman revealed in the 1980s and 1990s how proteins dock with their target membranes like

two sides of a zipper. Also in the ‘90s, Suedhof found out how vesicles release their cargo with precision. “This is not an overnight thing. Most of it has been accomplished and developed over many years, if not decades,” Rothman told the AP. Asked if the Nobel might change his work or funding, he said, “I honestly don’t know. It’s a new experience.” Rothman said he lost grant money for the work recognized by the Nobel committee, but he will now reapply, hoping the Nobel prize will make a difference in receiving funding. The medicine prize kicked off this year’s Nobel announcements. The awards in physics, chemistry, literature, peace and economics will be announced by other prize juries this week and next. Each prize is worth 8 million Swedish kronor ($1.2 million).

The Trail Smoke Eaters Travis Stephens drove to the net but couldn’t get the puck by Merritt Centennial goalie Devin Kero, as the Cents skated to a 6-1 win on Saturday at the Cominco Arena.

Smokies can’t solve Cents at home Trail salvages point against Alberni BY JIM BAILEY

Times Sports Editor

The Trail Smoke Eaters picked up a single point in a twogame home-stand on the weekend, tying the Alberni Valley Bulldogs 3-3 Friday night, before being outworked and outplayed by the Merritt Centennials in a 6-1 drubbing on Saturday. The Cents’ Bennett Huber netted what proved to be the winning goal, taking a nice drop pass from Gavin Gould and rifling a shot under the arm of Smokie goalie Dustin Nikkel at 18:26 of the first period for a 2-0 lead. Merritt opened the scoring at 11:57 when Diego Cuglietta snuck behind the Trail defencemen and broke in all alone on Nikkel beating him with a quick wrist shot to the stick side. Sebastien Pare would make it 3-0, but the Smokies cut the lead to two on a power play. With Peyton Schafer in the box for goaltend-

er interference, the Smokies’ defenceman Curtis Toneff crept in from the blue line and blasted a Jake Kaupilla pass past Cents’ goalie Devin Kero to make it 3-1 with just 13 seconds to go in the second period. It was Toneff’s third goal of the season, and eighth point in six games. However, that’s as close as the home team would get as Sam Johnson, Zach Hartley, and Scott Patterson each scored in the third period to put the game out of reach. The Smoke Eaters managed 17 shots on goal including just five in the third period, when some urgency was required. In two games at the Cominco Arena this season the Centennials have outscored the Smokies 11-1. The win, coupled with a 4-3 victory over Victoria Grizzlies Friday, propels Merritt from the basement to third spot in the BCHL’s tight Interior division. Vernon and Salmon Arm each split their two

games this weekend and remain tied for fourth spot with 11 points, while West Kelowna’s 4-2 win over Nanaimo and a 6-1 victory over Cowichan Sunday has propped them up on top the Interior division with 17 points, three ahead of the Penticton Vees who lost to Salmon Arm 5-2 Friday, before defeating Alberni, 6-2, Saturday. October is one of the busiest months for the Smoke Eaters, with 11 games scheduled including four games in the next six days. In Friday’s match, two overtime periods couldn’t decide a 3-3 draw between the Smoke Eaters and Alberni Valley Bulldogs. The Smokies stormed back from a first period 2-0 deficit

to take a 3-2 lead, but Alberni replied, tying it with just under two minutes to play in the middle frame. However, Nikkel and Bulldog goalie Tyger Howat shut the door in the third period as well as the 4-on-4 and 3-on-3 overtime periods, as both goalies faced 40 shots on the evening. After being traded from Vernon earlier in the week, Trail native Craig Martin scored his first goal as a Bulldog to give Alberni a 2-0 lead, but Tyson Witala, Braedon Jones, and Jesse Knowler would put the Smokies up before Darian Henry tied it. Both teams had chances to win but a great save by Nikkel on a breakaway in the dying seconds of regulation preserved the point for the

Smokies, and a Jesse Knowler snapshot off the crossbar in OT almost won it. The Smoke Eaters next have a home-and-home with Salmon Arm Thursday and Friday, with the SilverBacks coming to Trail Friday night for a 7:30 p.m. puck drop. The Smokies host the Powell River Kings on Sunday with a 3 p.m. face offf, then travel to Vernon to play the Vipers Tuesday. Smoke Signals: Former Smokie Brandon Egli has committed to play for the NCAA University of Massachusetts. Egli began last year with the Smokies before being traded to the Victoria Grizzlies where he has counted a goal and four assists in nine games this season.

BY TIMES STAFF It was only a matter of time before the two remaining perfect records in the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League (KIJHL) would fall, as the Neil Murdoch division Beaver Valley Nitehawks and Nelson Leafs entered the weekend with perfect 5-0 starts. The Nitehawks beat the Spokane Braves on Friday night 6-1, pushing their record to 6-0-0. However, the Osoyoos Coyotes plundered the Hawks Nest and rudely knocked the Hawks from their perfect 6-0 perch by beating the home team 4-1 at home on Saturday. Luc Gradisar scored on a power play at the end of the first period and Bradley Williams added the lone second-period goal to give the Coyotes a 2-0 lead heading into the third period. Williams scored his second of the night at 15:51 of the third before the Nitehawks got on the board. The Hawks’ Taylor Stafford made it 3-1 converting a pass from Mitch Foyle and Ryan Edwards. Jackson DeMatos would complete the scoring with

his fifth goal of the season to make it 4-1 with just over two minutes remaining. Josh Round took the loss in net for the Hawks, stopping 23 of 27 shots while Lawrence Langan stopped 26 of 27 for the Coyotes. On Friday the Nitehawks’ Ryan Edwards netted a hat trick, Russell Mortlock notched his first goal of the season, while Sam Swanson, and Mitch Foyle rounded out the scoring to pace the Hawks to a 6-1 victory over Spokane. Round got the win in net stopping 25 shots while the Hawks fired 31 at the Spokane net. Meanwhile the Nelson Leafs tied the Columbia Valley Rockies 2-2 Friday, to bring their winning streak to an end, despite outshooting the Rockies 55-28. They now hold a one point lead over the Nitehawks in the Neil Murdoch division standings. The Hawks have a challenging weekend as they travel to Nelson to play the Leafs on Friday at 7 p.m. and host the North Okanagan Knights on Saturday at 7:30 p.m.

Trail’s hockey talent spans the globe BY JIM BAILEY

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK - CBS says Halle Berry will star in a serialized drama coming to the network next summer. The Oscar-winning actress will headline “Extant,” a 13-episode thriller. Berry will play an astronaut trying to reconnect with her family when she returns after a year in outer space. Her experiences lead to events that change the course of history. The series is being made in partnership with Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Television, which made last summer’s surprise hit for CBS, “Under the Dome.” CBS announced “Extant” in August. CBS Entertainment president Nina Tassler said Berry is the type of actress “you dream of collaborating with for an event project such as ‘Extant.”’

R-rated fare rounds out the top five. “Runner Runner,” opened in third place followed by “Prisoners,” and “Rush,” with $5.7 million and $4.4 million respectively.

Take comfort in the good done for daughter Mailbox

Marcy Sugar & Kathy Mitchell

32 and recently married. She suddenly and inexplicably has cut us off. When we try to communicate with her, she becomes hysterical with rage. We have learned she has been saying horrible things about us to the same extended family members we tried to protect her from in childhood. We are devastated. One relative actually told my husband that we must have done something terrible to our daughter for her to treat us this way. These family members now have a special, almost frenzied new importance to our daughter. They judge us constantly. To be

know anything is wrong. But the pain I suffer from daily is sometimes unbearable. How should I reply to inconsiderate people who make comments like, “Come on, hurry up” or “What is wrong with you?” I wish people would think before they open their mouths. They do not know the struggles I face. There is treatment for MS, but no cure. I maintain my regimen of daily injections, but most of the time I cannot control its rampage. Maybe this letter will bring awareness to people not to judge on outward appearances. -- Suffering in Michigan Dear Suffering: We hope so, but unless you are willing to tell these impatient people what the problem is, they will continue to behave rudely toward you. Please, folks, the people around you may be coping with terrible difficulties that are not

visible. Be kind. Dear Annie: I loved the letter from the “Lady Doctor,” who was so thrilled with her MD degree that she wanted everyone to address her mail to “Dr. Jane Doe and Mr. John Doe.” My wife and I met in grad school. She

went on to get a Ph.D. Her mother is so proud that she addresses all of my wife’s letters to Dr. Jane Doe. However, she is also a traditionalist, so when she writes to both of us, she addresses her letters to Mr. and Mrs. John Doe. My wife will quickly tell anyone

who asks that she is at least as proud of her Mrs. degree as she is of her Ph.D. -- Mr. John Doe Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

accused of such mistreatment is insulting and painful. Please print this so these family members will stop jumping to conclusions. -- Reading This Can Help Dear Reading: Most likely, the only thing that will change their perspective is to be on the receiving end of your daughter’s erratic behavior. Despite all the therapy she had when younger, her problems haven’t disappeared. She has simply chosen to deal with them in her own way, which currently precludes a loving relationship with you. We hope that will change. While you cannot control what the relatives think, please take comfort in knowing you handled your daughter’s issues in a way that protected and helped her. That is what good parents do. Dear Annie: Like many people, I suffer from the effects of multiple sclerosis. To look at us, you wouldn’t

Dear Annie: When our daughter was a child, she had emotional issues and extensive anger management problems. With tremendous concern and love, we got her professional support and therapy, and ultimately, our daughter learned the skills to control herself. What we did not do was tell extended family members of these private problems. We had seen their extreme intolerance for any kind of mental health issues and did not want our daughter to suffer prejudice from her own family. In college, the troubling incidents started again. Because of our daughter’s refusal to let us have access to her medical information, we had no real idea of what was happening. The next few years included troubling breakups with both friends and boyfriends, extreme weight loss and talk of suicide. Our daughter is now
