the reptilian part of ourselves,” explained Jackson. “We are just going by the instincts there is not any kind of illumination or consciousness to what we are doing.” He said it’s hoped that as people walk past the mural they’ll receive direction and hope in their lives and that it will stimulate something positive. “The mural shows that the Creator is available to all of us,” said Jackson. “It is a connection we can have in our heart if we want to know more about the Creator—just by being real, by being truthful to ourselves and truthful to others—establish a healthy relationship that will bear fruit.” He stressed that the mural is the work of not only himself, but of the entire class and expressed the hope that the students had benefited from using their talents and skills to serve others in their community.

Carhartt’s revolutionary sock line is ultra comfortable and long lasting. They are moisture wicking to cool active feet, composed of both natural and high-tech synthetic fibres. With compression arches and reinforced heels and toes, they will not fall, pinch or bind while at work or play. What if the washing machine is really the one stealing the socks, and everyone just keeps blaming the dryer?

Club especially for Grade 2/3

The Midway Library has started a reading club for the Grade 2-3 elementary kids. “As the reading Link Challenge was so successful, we wanted the Grade 2 and 3s to have a program,” said library director Stephanie Boltz in her annual report to the board at their recent annual general meeting. Midway resident (and retired elementary school teacher) Lynda Anderson-Thibault has volunteered to facilitate the program. She visits Midway Elementary School and West Boundary Elementary School at lunch time twice a month. The children take home books that she brings and then they discuss what they read. The program is in it’s initial stages at Beaverdell and Big White, and plans are for it to continue in 2014. “We are fortunate that our schools have dedicated teachers and staff,” said Boltz. “Their cooperation has made it so much fun to have these programs and the children are the benefactors.” Enough new books for all four schools have been purchased. “We purchased three to five copies per book so that some of the kids are reading the same book so they will develop conversations on the books they read.” “Another benefit we are hoping for besides reading and comprehension is that we will prepare them for the Grade 4/5 Reading Link Challenge,” Boltz said.

Linda Anderson-Thibault explains the new reading program being held at the Midway Public Library to a group of Grade 2 and 3 students.

The Speakeasy hits stage in April A N N U A L G E N E R A L M E E T I N G

The Boundary Theatre Group began rehearsals last month on their newest production—The Speakeasy. It is set to hit the stage in April. The play is another original script by Terry Keough, who says with a laugh, “If you do original then nobody can point out your mistakes.” The play takes place from 1926 through to New Year’s Eve 1929, back when prohibition clubs were all the rage and gin joints were everywhere offering a good time. At Big Al’s club, acts from all over the world would come to play to the rich and famous as the wealth of the world grew at a pace never seen before. Then something happened that changed the

club forever and left the players and staff at the speakeasy stuck in limbo. Keough says they will perform the play first in Bridesville, with two nights of dinner theatre and then to Midway two weeks after that as the first fund raising project to help John Hibberson’s new theatre group raise money for lights, etc. “Since our group does all our events for charity this is a good fit,” he says. “We are fortunate that our former careers in music allowed us to have all of the gear we need for these things so we want to help encourage local theatre any way we can.” The cast includes Terry and Shannon Keough, Emilio Martinez, Rossana Garcia-Manzano, Karen Harpur, Col-

Snowbirds: check your days

Each year, as the autumn leaves start to fall, many Canadian retirees head to the Southern States to soak up the sun. Recently, many of these migrating “snowbirds” have been the focus of discussion due to increased vigilance by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regarding the filing of Form 8840. If you, a Canadian citizen, spend an average of 4 months each year in the United States, you and your accountant should discuss the potential requirement for filing this form. The IRS uses a formula to calculate visitors’ eligibility. To illustrate this formula, let us use an example of a fictional Canadian snowbird, Jane Doe. For many years, Jane would leave Canada on November 1, travel to Arizona, and then return home to Canada on March 31. During the spring of 2012, Jane discussed with her accountant the possibility of filing the IRS Form 8840. In order to determine this need, they added the following three amounts: • the total number of days Jane spent in the USA during the prior year (January to March 2011: 90 days; November to December 2011: 61 days; 90 + 61 = 151); • the number of days Jane spent in the USA two years ago (January to March 2010: 90; November to

December 2010: 61; 90 + 61 = 151) multiplied by 1/3 (151 * 1/3 =50.33); • the number of days Jane spent in the USA three years ago (January to March 2009: 90; November to December 2009: 61; 90 + 61 = 151) multiplied by 1/6 (151 * 1/6 = 25.16). Jane’s formula total was 226.49 (151+ 50.33+25.16). Jane and her accountant realized this total was greater than the 183-day threshold, so Jane was required to file Form 8840 by June 15, 2012. All Canadian travelers who calculate a formula total more than 183 days must file IRS Form 8840. The form includes a list of questions determining how closely one is linked with the United States. Individuals who file this IRS Form 8840 are exempt from filing a personal income tax return in the United States. If you would like assistance with the filing of this form, please contact your local Kemp Harvey Group office more information. K. Sarah Kientz, CGA Sylvia Burch, CGA J.R.

Tickets will go on sale in early February and they will not last, given that when the theatre company did the Chickens play they sold out two shows in four days - before they even put the ad out. Keough says they have a good regular group of followers whose names are kept on an email list. After word gets out to the list, there are usually a few tickets left. If anyone wants to be put on that email contact list they can call Shannon Keough at 250-446-2942.

Amendment ‘welcome’ The Boundary Country Regional Chamber of Commerce applauds the B.C. government for listening to B.C.’s chamber network and amending a recycling regulation that was causing substantial concern among businesses so that it will impact less that one per cent of B.C.’s businesses. “This is a huge relief to our local business community,” said James Wilson, executive director of the Boundary Country Regional Chamber of Commerce. “This change exempts the majority of our local businesses, including all of our mom-and-pop shops, from new costs and red tape.” The regulation targets packaging and printed paper (PPP) and is slated to go into force in May. The B.C. government has announced that it will enshrine in regulation an exemption for any B.C. business that meets any of the following criteria: • annual revenues of less than $1 million; • less than one tonne of packaging and printed paper produced annually and/or • a single point of retail sale (and not supplied by or operated as part of a franchise, chain or under a banner). That means that less than 3,000 businesses in the province will be captured by the regulation, out of more than 385,000. Wilson noted that the Boundary Country Regional Chamber of Com-

merce supports the principle of extended producer responsibility (EPR), which aligns with B.C. business values, but cautioned that EPR programs need to be implemented carefully to avoid unintended consequences. “This exemption correctly balances environmental goals with business needs,” Wilson said. “We applaud the B.C. government for responding to businesses’ concerns and limiting the scope of the program, appropriately, to B.C.’s largest PPP producers.” The chamber network throughout B.C. raised the alarm about the regulation last summer after businesses across the province were contacted about coming new obligations and fees by Multi Material BC (MMBC), the agency charged with producing a stewardship plan under the regulation. “It became clear that this regulation would have unintended fallout for businesses, and particularly small businesses, across B.C.,” said Wilson. “As a chamber network, we knew we needed to roll up our sleeves, get to work and fix this thing.” Backed by local chambers, the BC Chamber of Commerce worked extensively with the B.C. government and MMBC to hammer out a way forward that avoided a “one-size-fits-all” approach. “Today’s announcement is the fruit of those labours: A re-tooled regulation that achieves B.C.’s environmental goals,

The first step in establishing a new animal control bylaw for the regional district has been taken. The Regional District of the Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) passed first reading of bylaw 1550, combining the old licensing bylaw and created one bylaw, said Elaine Kumar, RDKB director of corporate administration. “It’s been cleaned up and we’ve added a schedule on the back and that’s where our fees are. We’ve improved on our definitions,” she said. Kumar said the definition of a vicious dog has been clarified

and the bylaw no longer names specific breeds. The animal control bylaw will be enforced by the animal control officers, which are provided by the Commissionaires who signed a one-year contract with the regional district back in September of last year. The bylaw establishes and sets regulations for a pound and provides for licensing of dogs within the area comprising of the City of Grand Forks, the City of Greenwood, and electoral areas ‘C’ (Christina Lake) and ‘D’ (area surrounding Grand Forks). “I think it really covers the basics,” said Grand Forks Mayor Brian Taylor, who also sits on the RDKB board and chairs the

Need for concern The province is waiving the requirement for CORE (Conservation and Outdoor Recreation Education) training for hunters new to the sport. Hunting is a big source of revenue for the province, with some 84,000 licenses in 2012. Victoria would like to see that number top 100,000 this year and to help accomplish this Minister Steve Thompson’s message in the government’s 2012-14 Hunting and Trapping Synopsis included the following comment: “To encourage new hunters, we are developing a new expanded Youth Hunting Licence and creating an Initiation Hunting Licence. These licences will provide a chance for novices to have a full hunting experience under the care and supervision of a seasoned mentor.” “The Initiation Licence will allow a onetime purchase of a trial hunting licence for adults who have never hunted before, but would like to see if it is right for them.” The B.C. Wildlife Federation (BCWF) operates the CORE Program on behalf of the Ministry of Forests, Lands, and Natural Resource Operations. According to the BCWF website the goal of the CORE Program is to ensure that prospective hunters meet acceptable standards of knowledge and skill for safe and ethical participation in hunting recreation. The program consists of a practical firearms handling test, and a written examination on conservation, ethics, law and regulations, first aid and survival, firearm safety and identification of animals and birds. That all sounds reasonable. So why scrap it? Giving a hunting licence to someone with no training or education in the sport and sending them into the bush with a loaded rifle sounds like a train wreck waiting to happen. Why should we be concerned? Because the Boundary has more active hunters in the field than anywhere else in the province.

Letters to the editor Don’t cut city’s postal service Editor, The Times:

An open letter to Deepak Chopra, president, Canada Post Corporation It is my understanding that Canada Post is proposing to discontinue Saturday service at the Greenwood Post Office. This presents a hardship for a number of citizens in this small rural community. For example, as you can see from the enclosed letters, owners and operators of home-based businesses need to receive and send parcels six days a week. Also, as noted in the attached correspondence, those living in Greenwood often work in other communities and do not return home until after nor-

mal business hours. They rely on Saturday postal service. It is important for you to understand that Canada Post provides well-paying jobs in our small rural communities. Any job loss as a result of reduced postal hours is felt throughout the community. It is simply not fair that the restructuring of Canada Post be accomplished on the backs of our rural communities, many of which are already struggling due to these difficult economic times. I strongly urge you to ensure that both the workers of Canada Post in Greenwood and the customers they serve are thoroughly consulted prior to any proposed changes in business hours. Alex Atamanenko, MP BC Souther Interior

U.S. prices lower for a reason Editor, The Times:

Re : “Time for open rebellion over fuel costs”. I find Mr. Delisle’s letter to the editor, Jan. 23, 2014, rather interesting in the sense how he compares American fuel prices with Canada’s on price alone. There are many pertinent reasons why the U.S. price is lower: crude oil is priced in U.S. dollars and when you pay in Canadian, you pay 10 per cent more—bank arbitrage (2.5 per cent) on top if you use a Canadian credit card or convert Canadian dollars to U.S. when buying fuel in the U.S. Cold winters in Canada require more heating oil—thus distillate (diesel) prices rise on demand. If you use propane, the price has jumped almost

Abolish senate Editor, The Times: I’ve heard so much about this move on Justin Trudeau’s part regarding senate reform, and I’d like to give my opinion on this issue. I hear the government side saying that it means nothing and that all that happens is that the senators who are Liberal get to sleep in one day a week. That’s hardly the point. That one day a week is a caucus meeting where the senators get inside information from the party and that’s hardly at arm’s length. Senators who are Liberal are no longer supposed to raise money for their party and that is a good thing. Mike Duffy and Pamela Wallin were touted as the best fund-raisers for the Conservatives. They travelled all over the country (on our dollar) not for the good of the country but for the good of the Conservative Party. I’ve also heard commentators say that no other party has made a move on this issue. That is a falsehood. The NDP put forward a motion asking for the same thing—arm’s length from the government—and Trudeau voted against it as did the Conservatives. Little mention is made that the NDP have never been in power federally and have no senators, so their hands are tied as far as actually doing anything. I think it’s a good first move on Justin Trudeau’s part and I’m looking forward to the next step—the abolition of an appointed senate that can strike down an environmental bill that was passed by the elected MPs. Donna Stocker, Cawston, B.C.

30 per cent in the last few weeks, again because of demand. High provincial and federal taxes on our fuel (which the Americans do not have), which pays for more expensive road construction due to a colder climate /winter maintenance (remember Atlanta Georgia last week with a two-inch snowfall; total chaos as no there are snowplows down there); social services etc. which for the most part, Americans go without along with much less regulation and insurance. There are fewer refineries in Canada, thus less competition; higher transportation costs to smaller centres and remote areas; and yes, the oil companies (and everyone in business) must be profitable, the central theme of the capitalist way, or you go “belly-up”. As to Mr. Delisle advocating “open rebellion”, what exactly do you mean or are you just blathering? Everybody in the world is in love with their car, and no time soon will you see global demand or prices dropping, especially as “new oil” is much more expensive to develop. George Dore, Westbridge

MP introduces bill to limit horse slaughter Alex Atamanenko, MP (BC Southern Interior) will soon have his turn to debate one of his private members bills in the House of Commons. “I have just notified the House of Commons that I will be moving forward with my newly introduced Bill C-571 which will impose certain limits on the horse slaughter industry,” stated the B.C. MP. Atamanenko had intended to proceed with his bill C-322 but it had become in-

creasingly apparent that the bill did not have the parliamentary support to survive the vote at second reading. Furthermore a legal analysis revealed that there could be a legislative conflict with the government’s new Safe Food for Canadians Act which was not an issue when the bill was originally drafted. He says that C-571 will still prohibit the vast majority horses from being sent to slaughter. “In the hopes of gaining par-

liamentary support, an exception was provided only for those horses that are raised primarily for human consumption and are accompanied by a complete lifetime medical history,” stated Atamanenko. “I hope that the thousands of Canadians who have stood behind Bill C-322 will soon get behind the new bill.” Atamanenko has long been a vocal opponent of the current industry practice of obtaining horses from auction houses

across Canada and the U.S. that were never raised in accordance with health and safety regulations required of all other food animals. “The fact is that drugs with no known safe limits and are prohibited for use at any time in the lifetime of food animals are regularly administered to horses,” he declared. According to Atamanenko, well over 50 per cent of the horses being slaughtered are being imported from the U.S. where slaughter is prohibited.
