Student survey links lack of sleep to emotional issues BY SHERI REGNIER Times Staff

High school students are not sleeping enough and the number of teenage girls reporting mental health issues is increasing according to a recent survey. The 2013 B.C. Adolescent Health Survey, a study of 30,000 students across the province, was released in the first of a series of reports by the McCreary Centre Society last week. Students from Grade 7 to 12 in 56 school districts, including 17 classrooms in KootenayColumbia School District 20, completed the survey titled “From Hastings Street to Haida Gwaii,” between February and June last year. This is the fifth “This is an area of time the survey has conducted concern because been since 1992, with the we looked at 2013 study focusing 130 questions every single grade and overall related to physical and mental health trend was a lack to risky and protective behaviours. of sleep and the For the first link to poorer time, students were mental health.” asked how many hours of sleep they ANNIE SMITH had the night before the survey. “The sleep questions are really important because it correlates with mental health,” Annie Smith, executive director for the McCreary Centre, a non-profit society based in Vancouver, told the Trail Times. The study showed that only 29 per cent of youth (28 per cent of girls and 31 per cent of boys) reported eight hours of sleep before taking the hour-long survey, with over 80 per cent of respondents admitting to staying up on the phone or online when they were supposed to be asleep. Six per cent of youth in Grade 12 reported sleeping four hours or less the night before the survey, compared to two percent in Grade 7. Students in every grade who slept nine hours or more before completing the survey were more likely than students who got less sleep to report that their mental health was good or excellent. “This is an area of concern because we looked at every single grade and the overall trend was a lack of sleep and the link to poorer mental health,” Smith added.

Trail Mayor Dieter Bogs welcomes passengers from the first Pacific Coastal flight to land at the local airport, which officially became the property of the City of Trail, on Saturday

Trail officially flying solo with airport BY ART HARRISON Times Staff

The cloud cover hovered just above the mountains as Trail city council members, community boosters, and airport volunteers and staff gathered at the Trail Airport to celebrate the city officially taking ownership of the small cluster of buildings and airstrip Saturday. “This was successful operation already and I see this as an opportunity to build on that success, an opportunity for economic development for the region,” said Trail Mayor Dieter Bogs. “Now that it belongs to one city rather than the region it will make it more straight forward for decision making, I see the opportunities for development being better. We can make it even more successful.” Pacific Coastal staff received notification of the flight’s approach and they and the airport volunteers went into action. “We have to be able to see the mountain tops to the east and north and

south for the plane to be able to land,” said Kirsty Tichauer, station supervisor for Pacific Coastal Airlines in Trail. “I’d say the ceiling is at about 4,000 to 5,000 feet. It shouldn’t be a problem coming in today.” The mayor was handed a fluorescent safety vest and received last-minute instruction from Al Doherty. Bogs was given the task of acting as honourary volunteer for the occasion and assisting to marshal the flight in to the passenger unloading area. As the plane taxied in, Bogs and Doherty walked onto the tarmac and took their position, the mayor directly behind Doherty, and together they waved the plane into position with their fluorescent orange batons. The mayor then went and personally welcomed each of the passengers as they debarked from the plane. Afterwards, as Bogs and long time Trail airport supporter and volunteer, Don Nutini, walked off of the landing

area together smiling, Nutini was heard to say, “It’s a great day, Dieter.” The day began with staff and various council members bustling about delivering drinks and flower arrangements for the event as airport volunteers and staff held last minute conferences discussing protocols for the day. Add in the laughter, balloons, and large celebratory cake it was a festive occasion. The mayor arrived and briefly circulated amongst the 50 or so people who had come for the celebration. Bogs cut the cake and the crowd mingled, collecting draw prizes of complimentary Pacific Coastal swag bags and drinking steaming cups of coffee while chatting. Nutini was as busy as anyone dividing his time between preparing for the incoming flight from Vancouver and greeting those who had come for the event. See VOLUNTEERS, Page 3

The seventh annual J.L. Crowe Secondary School Variety Show played to a full house in the Charles Bailey Theatre Thursday evening. Crowe teachers (above) tickled the funny bone with a spot on rendition of the teen musical television show “Glee” that followed an opening mini-movie parody of the show’s first episode. Students sang, danced and acted through 24 performances ranging from operatic solos and classical piano numbers to a Taylor Swift ballad followed by the headbanging sounds of drums, bass and electric guitars of “Hand of Blood.” Comedic skits titled “Hashtag” by the 2014 grad council, SNL’s “Penelope,” and “Lauren Cooper and Dr. Who,” kept the audience in stitches. A lively chorus of staff and students joined in to “Shout” and ended the evening with a full cast ensemble singing “We Are The Crowe.” Pat Sidey (right photo), a teacher-councillor set to retire in June, was presented the Golden Apple Award to honour more than 30 years of service.

Funding sought for rock wall plaques

Disparities between rural and urban experiences

By Valerie Rossi Times Staff

A local group committed to the history of Trail's rock walls plans to further commemorate the city's stonework this spring. The Rock Wall Enthusiastico Society has already received half of the $10,000 needed to purchase 10 bronze plaques to be placed in each of the 10 touring neighbourhoods, inspired by the locally produced book "Set in Stone: A History of Trail's Rock Walls.” Though the City of Trail recently rejected the society's request to top up its efforts with $5,000, the book's author Eileen Pederson said the group is confident it will get the funding it needs and still plans for installation in May. “What we want to do now, what we're calling, ‘the icing on the cake,’ is to have 10 bronze plaques made for 10 walls around the city,” she said. “It's always been on our minds to have bronze plaques and this is the third year we are looking for funding to do that.” City corporate administrator Michelle McIsaac said the city's cash grant-in-aid budget is limited and that's why council advised the society to go after funding through the Columbia Basin Trust’s Community Initiatives Program during a presentation last week. Pedersen's six-year vision to document and celebrate the history, culture and beauty of Trail's rock walls was born as a photo essay in 2002. A year later, the society formed and began gathering photos and the historical stories of the walls. The project blossomed from curiosity and an abundance of support and the story was later bound in 2008. The pages come to life when one sets out on the tour, said Pederson, adding that Trail's other historical characteristics from the covered stairs to the narrow streets and homes in West Trail also add to the walk down memory lane.

City sues former building inspector

City of Trail Mayor Dieter Bogs cuts into the congratulatory cake served up to celebrate Trail’s ownership of the airport.

By Timothy Schafer

FROM PAGE 1 Although volunteer activities at the airport will eventually give way to paid City of Trail positions, he and fellow volunteers, Doherty, Kevin Bagg, Neil Craig, and Michael Whitehead, would still have their hands full keeping the planes landing for some time yet. “We’ll be staying on for awhile until everything gets worked out,” said Nutini. “Eventually, I think there will only be two people and the manager. I think they’ll need a manager who isn’t afraid to pick up a snow shovel when they need to though.” The crowd then moved onto the tarmac and mayor and council moved to stand near a spotless, newer-looking snow plow, and Bogs said a few words before he stripped off a piece of paper covering a new City of Trail decal on the door of the machine to the applause of the spectators. The city has been interviewing for an airport manager and is close to making their final decision now that the purchase has been formalized. Sandra Stoddart-Hansen has been acting as interim manager for the airport and is comfortable with surrendering her duties in the near future. “It’s been a great experience,” she said. “I’ll be on board until the selection for permanent manager has been made and stay on for the transition.”

Rossland News

The City of Rossland is suing its former building inspector. On Feb. 3 the city filed a notice of civil claim in B.C. Supreme Court against Jason George Ward. Ward was the city’s former chief building inspector. In the fall of 2011, the city discovered that while Ward was employed by the city as chief building inspector, he was also involved with a business called ADA Co. Inc. which had been doing construction

work for the city. The city investigated and confirmed that $181,662.70 had been paid to ADA Co. Inc. in relation to work done on the Rossland Arena. It is alleged that the value of the work done was substantially less than the amount paid to ADA Co. Inc., and in this lawsuit the city is seeking to recover the difference between the value of the work and what had been paid. The matter is before the courts and the city will not provide any further comment.

The most common reason students cited for failing to seek medical help for symptoms of depression, anxiety and panic attacks, was they didn’t want their parent to know. This is alarming because the study shows students aged 14 and older were more likely in 2013 than in 2008 to experience extreme levels of despair to the point where they could not function. And, for eight per cent of males and 22 per cent of females surveyed, those feelings led to self-harm such as cutting or injuring themselves on purpose. Most of the survey results were consistent across the province, but the study did uncover some disparities between the urban and rural student experience. “One thing we found is that more girls in rural communities tend not to participate in sports,” said Smith. “The reason they gave is that they were worried about being bullied,” she explained. “It is something they can’t get away from in school, on the bus or in a sports activity like you could in a bigger centre. That is a notable difference in the rural areas.” Two other points of concern Smith touched on were the marked increases in reported multiple concussions (blows to the head); and the growing problem of childhood obesity. Further studies of those results will be completed this year, and specific reports focused on the health of various youth populations will be released to the school districts and healthcare services.

FROM PAGE 1 “The survey provides information to help us understand our students,” confirmed Greg Luterbach, superintendent for School District 20. “It provides reliable, accurate information about youth health. And provides a reliable source to track trends over the past 20 years.” While the study showed youth are generally making better choices about risk behaviours such as binge drinking and smoking than their peers five or 10 years ago, responses about mental health was troubling, especially among female students. “The gender differences in mental health is concerning,” explained Smith. “The survey shows it is not improving for girls,” she said. “And in some cases, it is getting worse.” The survey found that 17 per cent of females students reported suicidal ideation, up from 14 per cent in 2008, and similarly, the rate of suicide attempts reported in 2013 increased over the past five years. Of the male students surveyed, eight per cent reported suicidal thoughts, a slight drop since 2008, which corresponds to the reported rate of suicide attempts remaining unchanged in five years. Although the survey found female students were three times as likely as males to report a mental or emotional health condition (15 per cent compared to five per cent) in the past year, many of those teens did not seek mental health intervention.

Provincial Kelowna

Developer unveils plan for 24-storey tower

By Alistair Waters Kelowna Capital News

The Edmontonbased developer that built, paid for and operates Kelowna’s new public pier and commercial marina, says the hotel it wants to build overlooking Okanagan Lake in the heart of downtown would include a 24-storey tower. Westcorp, which has made no secret of the fact it has wanted to build a hotel on the site at the foot of Queensway for years, said the proposed $65-million development would include the 24-storey, 206-room hotel, an 18,000-square-foot conference centre and 4,000-square-feet of retail space along Water Street. “This project will

revive this area of Kelowna’s waterfront into the vibrant, central hub that it once was during the historic glory days of the original Willow Inn,” said Westcorp president and Kelowna property owner Phil Milroy in a news release. “It will connect the community’s waterfront with the downtown core through a pedestrian-only realm that will foster social activities and community interaction.” In addition to a formal application that has been made to the city, the company also briefed the Downtown Kelowna Association about the project earlier this week. If approved by the city, construction could start later this year with completion

tentatively scheduled for early 2017. As part of the project, the company also wants the existing stretch of Mill Street that connects Bernard Avenue to Water Street closed and turned it into a pedestrian walkway that would have the existing Kerry Park on one side and the development on the other. “It will connect the community’s waterfront with the downtown core through a pedestrian-only realm that will foster social activities and community interaction,” said Milroy. In addition to closing the road to create the pedestrian walkway, Kelowna city council will also be asked to vary the current 19-storey max-

imum building height allowed for the site. Westcorp officials locally say they feel their project could influence future development downtown. “Building on the energy created by the Bernard Avenue revitalization work and the new downtown marina, this hotel will be an exciting and active addition to the heart of the city,” said Gail Temple, Westcorp’s director of development. “The hotel’s world class, contemporary architectural design will not only help to raise Kelowna’s profile, it will also act as a catalyst, and raise the bar, for future development in the downtown. The proposal envisions a curved tower designed by international architecture firm Kasian. “The hotel’s striking elliptical form is set within a podium that steps down to unite with Kerry Park, Bernard Avenue and

the waterfront,” said Michael McDonald, the project’s lead architect with Kasian. Milroy and his company have wanted to build a new hotel at the foot of Queensway for several years. In 2010 his plans were shot down by the council of the day when it rescinded the proposed CD-21 zone that would have allowed for redevelopment in the area. That proposal included use of part of Kerry Park for the hotel project. Since then, the area has been rezoned as part of the city’s Downtown Plan. Milroy also wanted to develop a large public plaza at what is now the south end of Stuart Park before the city was planning development of the park. Last year, when he opened the $5-million public pier that his company paid for, Milroy said he hoped to proceed quickly with a hotel on the now-vacant former Willow Inn site.

Revelstoke Times Review

One man is dead after four people were involved in an avalanche on Boulder Mountain near Revelstoke on Saturday. The avalanche occurred near the Boulder Mountain Cabin at around 3 p.m. Four snowmobilers were in the area when the avalanche was triggered, and two were caught in the slide, RCMP reported. One man was quickly uncovered from the snow by his colleagues but the second one was unconscious by the time he was dug out of the avalanche. Revelstoke Search and Rescue was mobilized and a team – including avalanche rescue dogs – was immediately flown to the scene, however the 35-year-old victim succumbed to his injuries. According to reports, the deceased is Chris McCoy, 36, of Sylvan Lake Alta. The other man suffered non-life-threatening injuries. All snowmobilers had appropriate safety gear, including beacons, and avalanche safety training. No details have been released on the nature or cause of the avalanche.

had been out with a group of friends Saturday night when they decided to stay in the Nelson Mountain/ Finlayson Lake area for one more run. However, one of the snowmobiles ran out of fuel and the pair teamed up on one machine and started to head out of there area when a blizzard rolled in. They started to head north but eventually stopped and took shelter under a downed tree. They had emergency supplies and got a fire going. “Conditions were absolutely the worst. Visibility was zero,” said Pete Wise, with Vernon Search and Rescue. Vernon SAR, with assistance from Central Okanagan Search and Rescue, the RCMP and the Civil Air Search and Rescue Association, were called out at about 10 p.m. Saturday. The snowmobilers were eventually spotted by a helicopter at 9:30 a.m. Sunday. Contact was eventually made with the pair and they were taken out of the area. “They are very lucky guys. They were cold and wet but they were alive,” added Wise. “It could have been far worse. That extra ride could have cost them their lives.”

national Ombudsman slams lax review of prison deaths THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA - It often takes more than two years for Correctional Service Canada to complete a mandatory review when someone behind bars dies of natural causes, the national prison ombudsman says. A report released Monday by correctional investigator Howard Sapers also raises questions about the quality and level of care provided to prisoners before they die in custody. Sapers says he uncovered questionable diagnostic practices, incomplete records, lax information-sharing and delays or lack of follow-up on treatment recommendations. In addition, prison staff did not investigate the circumstances of natural deaths beyond recording the cause as either unexpected or sudden. Correctional Service’s process for reviewing such in-custody deaths failed to generate significant findings or recommendations, Sapers says. There is no way of determining whether a death was preventable or premature. On average, about 35 federal prisoners die each year for natural reasons - by far the most common cause, the report says. It calls on the prison service to do a comprehensive “lessons-learned exercise” to identify measures to reduce or prevent natural cause deaths. Sapers recommends several other changes: - All sudden or unexpected fatalities should be subject to a full national board of investigation - the kind of inquiry that now happens when there’s a suicide or homicide; - The board should convene within 15 working days of the fatality; - All reviews of prison deaths - no matter the cause - should be led by a doctor; - Death review reports should be shared with family members in a timely way.

No Olympic boost for most bars

THE CANADIAN PRESS The big screens may be broadcasting the latest from Sochi, the beer may be ready to flow, but bars hoping for a big boost from the Winter Olympics have had to grapple with a tricky time difference that has many Canadians cheering on their favourite athletes from their homes or offices instead of their favourite watering hole. For a number of sports bars, just how much of a crowd the Olympics are drawing depends on which part of the country they’re in. Things appear to be going well in Halifax where, despite the eight hour time difference with Sochi, customers are flocking to Bubba Ray’s sports bar to get their Olympic fix. “We’re not hurting at all. We’re packed for everything,” said general manager Woody Menear. The bar’s evening crowd, which watches Olympic re-runs, has brought in average sales, but live day-time events, particularly women’s and men’s

hockey, have drawn audiences comparable to the Vancouver Winter Games in 2010. Meanwhile in Toronto where the time difference with Sochi is nine hours, bars aren’t seeing as much traffic as during the Vancouver Games, but the Olympics are still drawing a crowd. “We definitely are getting people to come in to watch it, no matter that it is in Sochi and the time difference is so big,” said Adrienne Barnhardt, general manager at Wayne Gretzky’s Toronto sports bar. “It’s not

2010 but still, you can feel the energy, people are really excited to be cheering on Canada.” Events that have been airing live during the work day in particular, have drawn an audience. “We’ve seen a lot of people who are taking long lunches. Definitely office people that are able to manipulate their schedule a little bit so they can enjoy cheering on the team,” said Barnhardt. Bars in British Columbia, however, appear to be hurting the most.

Who actually provoked the school strike?

I

made an error in a column two weeks ago about the latest court ruling in favour of the B.C. Teachers’ Federation. I referred to an “illegal” strike in 2012, and was quickly reminded that this teacher walkout was sanctioned by the Labour Relations Board. After months of withholding report cards and refusing to meet with administrators, the union went to the LRB to seek permission for a full-scale strike. They got their wish, with authorization under essential services rules for a three-day strike in the first week, and one day a week after that until the end of the school year or a settlement was reached. For the record, the last illegal BCTF strike was in 2005, in defiance of a B.C. Supreme Court order that resulted in a $500,000 fine against the union. That was the same year BCTF lawyers won a split

B.C. Court of Appeal ruling allowing teachers to bring political propaganda into classrooms. Two out of three judges decided this was appropriate to preserve their freedom of expression. The authorized threeday strike went ahead in March 2012. Regular readers may recall my reports of students being indoctrinated in classrooms and in some cases sent out as union pickets, and of the strongarming of unionized government office staff here in Victoria to make them join a rally on the legislature lawn. This was the strike that, according to the current media and political narrative, the provincial cabinet conspired to bring about. This notion is central to the Jan. 27 ruling of Justice Susan Griffin that orders the B.C. government to attempt to reconstruct the world of 2001.

TOM

FLETCHER B.C. Views

Government lawyers filed an application with the B.C. Court of Appeal on Friday to suspend parts of this ruling. Imposing Griffin’s terms would cause “irreparable harm to the public interest of unprecedented magnitude,” they said in arguments backed up by a series of affidavits from superintendents who have to keep B.C.’s war-weary public schools running. In Surrey, returning to 2002 conditions would add $40 million to the district payroll in year one.

That’s one of 60 school districts. The government’s submission includes affidavits from superintendents around the province on its likely impact. Here’s a partial list: Cancellation of specialty programs for vulnerable youth, construction of portables to meet arbitrary class size restrictions, transfer of some students to other schools, closure of daycare and Strong Start preschool programs to free up space reallocated over the years, layoff of non-teaching staff, and cancellation of school participation in the international student program. Premier Christy Clark and Education Minister Peter Fassbender have begun to push back against the conspiracy theory that has taken hold, pointing out that when the BCTF finally did get permission to strike, the cabinet of the day acted to prevent it.

Here’s a recap. In late February 2012, nearly 28,000 teachers (90 per cent) voted to go to the full strike allowed by the LRB. The government tabled legislation to impose a cooling-off period with provision for steep fines on the union for any further strike action, and appointed a mediator. This kept schools open, and eventually yielded a two-year deal. In April 2012, the union voted to withdraw all volunteer work by teachers. By this time they had been ordered by the LRB to prepare second-term report cards, in part so students would know if they could apply for post-secondary studies. Once again this mess is before the court of appeal. Perhaps there will be better recognition of the real world this time around. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Cord cutting growing: poll THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO - Another new poll suggests socalled cord cutting may be growing in Canada. Nearly a quarter of the respondents in an online survey conducted by Ipsos Reid in recent weeks said they did not have a traditional TV subscription. The increasingly compelling selection of streamable content available online and access to free over-the-air TV signals have convinced some consumers to cut the cord, or go without paying for TV. But Ipsos Reid noted that an even bigger trend is so-called cord stacking, when TV subscribers decide to pay for a la carte digital services to complement their TV package.

kids at an affordable cost of $7/ day. For families that count on two earners, the New Mom and Dad benefits would inject approximately $15,000 after-tax when couples split a year at home with a child age six to18 months. Thereafter, Flex-Time changes would invite dualearner families to trade some earnings from about four weeks of employment to gain 22 additional days at home with their kids. For most families, there will be little or no after-tax reduction in their disposable income because $10/day child care will save thousands in fee expenditures in order to compensate for the reduction in wages. For low-income parents who cannot afford to trade any income for more time with their kids, the New Deal will triple the National Child Benefit Supplement. This policy change, in combination with a child care fee waiver for households with incomes below $40,000 and the New Mom and Dad Benefits, would all but eliminate poverty among families with children under age six. Canadians require bold policy change to address the decline in the standard of living for Gen Squeeze, to value the diverse choices families make as they wrestle with this decline, and to promote gender equality for moms and dads. By contrast, income splitting dabbles with old-fashioned policy thinking, which will not address the seismic socioeconomic shift now confronting the generation raising young kids. Paul Kershaw is a Policy Professor at the University of BC and Founder of Generation Squeeze a campaign that is building a Canada that works for ALL generations.

Senate scandal just tip of iceberg: poll

THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA - Public-opinion polling ordered by the Harper government suggests the Senate expense scandal has tarred all politicians with the same brush. A newly released report finds Canadians fed up with “rich politicians” and their “lush lifestyles,” and wondering how deep the flagrant spending abuse runs. Those views dominate the polling and survey groups conducted by private pollster Leger last August for the Privy Council Office, the prime minister’s own department. The survey specifically asked about the economy, pipelines and telecom regulation - but it was the Senate scandal that seemed to get people’s blood

boiling. The $112,000 report included a telephone survey of 3,000 Canadians, and 12 focus groups in six cities, including a Frenchlanguage group in Quebec City. Leger was hired to ask Canadians specifically about the Senate scandal, which then involved allegations of spending abuse by Conservative senators Mike Duffy, Pam Wallin and Patrick Brazeau, all of whom were subsequently voted out of the current Senate session, losing their paycheques. “The events of the past few months created a sense among participants that overspending or using public money for personal benefits may be widespread,” says the newly released report. The report cites Canadians’

personal economic difficulties as exacerbating their frustration with the misuse of public funds in the upper house. The Leger polling found Canadians especially frustrated by alleged Senate abuse of public funds because “very few among them could explain what senators did on a daily basis, nor what the Senate’s role is.”

PEOPLE OBITUARIES

CATALANO SOLHEIM), MARGARET – away peacefully

(NEE NORA passed at the

Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital on February 12, 2014. Nora was born on

November 3, 1935 in Creston, BC where she resided until the family moved to Nelson. She lived in Nelson until 1952 when she moved to Trail to be with her true love Joe. Mom will always be remembered for her love of her family. She displayed this by playing piano for her grandkids and making up songs and plays. She was an incredible seamstress and cook. She was a great baker that made sure she always had some tasty

treats waiting on the kitchen counter, just in case. She loved Jeopardy, Trailer Park Boys, Tundra and Mother Goose and Grimm comic strips. She loved the Beatles with “Hey Jude” being her favorite tune. She had a wickedly warped sense of humour combined with a very accurate memory. She was always invited to class reunions at which she was noted for her story telling. This led to her lunches with Dad’s 1952 grad

class ladies. She kept up with her Norwegian roots that led to some great stories. Another of her favorite pastimes was to sit on the front porch and chat with neighbours passing by. She had a great group of old and new neighbours that she kept in contact with. Ultimately, she loved spending time with family at Deep Lake “wharfaging” so she could keep an eye on the entire goings on. Mom was a member of the sisters of the Cristoforo Colombo Lodge for over 40 years and always had a great time at meetings and events. In October of 2013 she lost Joe to Alzheimer’s. She was also predeceased by her parents, her two sisters Inger and Kari, her brother Walter and her brother-in-law Sev Catalano. She is survived by her daughters Toni (Ray) Kushner, Teri (Henry) Del Bucchia, her son Chris Catalano; grandchildren Dina (Jason), Andrew (Helen), Danny, Hanna, Emma and great granddaughter Sophia: sister-in-law Rose (Ray) Civitarese, Tommy Catalano and numerous nieces and nephews. As an expression of sympathy, donations may be made in Nora’s name to the Heart and Stroke Foundation at 4 - 1551 Sutherland Avenue, Kelowna, BC, V1Y 9M9 or the Trail Branch of the SPCA at 7700 Highway 3B, Trail, BC, V1R 2L9. A celebration of Nora’s life will be held at a later date. Al Grywacheski of Alternatives Funeral and Cremation Services™ has been entrusted with arrangements.

Ron died in Trail after a two month journey which began when he went to Ontario to visit his children, his family and his very good friend Lorne who was ill. He suffered an aneurysm a short time into his trip which resulted in his hospitalization in Ottawa, then to Kelowna General and finally home to KBRH in Trail. Despite the sadness of this time it gave Ron the chance to tell everyone in person how much he loved them, and for them to express their feelings to him and to say good bye in person. Deborah was able to visit with the family and be supported through the Christmas season while in Ottawa. Ron was born in Ottawa and grew up in Shawville, Quebec on the Hodgins’ farm. Ron had great stories about his life on the farm, and especially about some of his pets; the protective Banti rooster, the roaming Jersey cow ‘Daisy’ and his beloved horse ‘Mickey’. Ron’s professional life was illustrious! He began his working career at the age of 16

when he and Lorne helped to build the dam at Sishwa. He next joined the Air Force in Saskatoon, becoming an aero-engineer technician and working on Mitchell bombers during the Korean War. After the war he worked as a millwright on the rigs in Calgary before returning to Ontario to work in the nickel mine in Sudbury. He went on to open his own business in Quebec, “Pontiac Auto Wreckers” before moving to Sault Sainte Marie where he settled into married life with his first wife Norrie while working for Sears. Norrie and Ron had their children Edward and Janice. This began Ron’s life in Search and Rescue too. He was part of the dive team and had experiences that would stay with him a lifetime. Ron’s other passions included the Valley Rider Ski-Do Club, skiing, camping, motorcycles and touring clubs. He was a ‘Mr. Fix-it” and was always lending a hand to everyone and anyone. Deborah and Ron met in Ottawa while both working for Sears and fell in love. Ron sparked a passion for skiing in Deb and the kids - he taught them all to ski after becoming a ski instructor. This led to family trips to Killington, Vermont and to Edelweiss, Quebec. Watching Ron carve down a mountain was breathtaking as he was so graceful! Sears moved Deb and Ron out west in 1980, and they were married in Heritage Park, Calgary with family by their side. They had their daughter, Candice and Ron began his career with Canada Customs at the Calgary Airport. Ron’s career took the family of three to Creston, Rossland and Trail. Deb and Ron also enjoyed their regular visits to their property in San

Felipe, Mexico for 15 incredible years. These were special times for the couple, Deb’s Mom and Dad and also Candice. Ron retired from Canada Customs at the age of 65. Soon after retirement, Ron went back to work part time at Schneider Lumber and then to Maglio’s where he absolutely loved his job! Ron is predeceased by his parents, Garfield and Mary (Schram) Hodgins, his first wife, Norberta Roach, his grandparents, cousins and friends (including his best friend Lorne whom he had returned to Ottawa to visit). He is survived by his wife Deborah, children Ed (Shahla), Janice (Mark) and Candice; grandchildren Emma, Cody and Harley, great grandson Jaxon, cousins Helen, Royce and Rita and all of his beloved family and friends. A Last Post and Funeral Service will be held on Friday, February 21, 2014 at 11:00am at the Royal Canadian Legion, Branch #11 in Trail, BC.

Pitman twins race at NorAms By Jim Bailey

Times Sports Editor

Mitch and Tommy Pitman are rested and ready for their next big challenge at Big White for the Nor Am Snowboard-cross championship this weekend. Tommy is coming off good results in the Nor Am races in Mt. Tremblant, Que. and Copper Mountain in Colorado earlier this month. The 20-year-old Warfield native finished with the fastest qualifying times on both days at the Quebec ski resort, topping the podium on the second day of competition while settling for fifth in the first round. Unfortunately for Mitch crashes during training runs left him out of the races in Mt. Tremblant. However, he returned to the track at Copper Mountain where he raced to a respectable ninth-place finish before bad luck would again play a part. In his second heat, Mitch was cut off by another rider causing him to crash and again put him out of the next day’s races. Meanwhile, Tommy qualified in first on the opening run in Copper Mountain, but finished in fourth place in the final. Slight damage to his board and a miscalculation on wax, resulted in a sixth-place finish on day two. As part of the Canadian SBX development team, Tommy competed in World Cup races in Lake Louise and at Vallnord-Arcalis in Andorra earlier this year, and will race in two more World Cups in Veysonnaz, Switz. and La Molina, Spain in March. After Big White, Mitch will spend the next month continuing on the NorAm circuit with races at Sugarloaf in Maine, Beaver Valley in Ontario, and Mt. Hood in Portland. Tommy will catch up with Mitch in Portland to finish off the last of the NorAms before they both head to the Nationals back at Big White April 3-6.

Freschi’s Sport Fishing on the Fly lands a big one By Jim Bailey

Times Sports Editor

Trail fly-fisherman Don Freschi landed a lunker earlier this month, inking a major deal with one of the most-watched outdoor networks on TV. Freschi is the host and co-creator of the popular TV program “Sport Fishing on the Fly” (SFOTF) and recently he signed a fullyear deal with the World Fishing Network (WFN). “Our sponsors were on board, but they had a choice, they could either go with Destination America or NBC, or stay on World

Fishing Network and do a whole year now, do 26 shows a year and go full out. So what our sponsors decided, for better exposure, was to be on World Fishing Network.” Freschi met with NBC, ‘Sportsnet,’ as well as with Discovery Channel’s ‘Destination America’ to discuss potential partnerships. Both meetings went well and the two networks accepted the show and wanted to air it . . . “but of course they wanted the big bucks that went with it,” said Freschi. Freschi consulted with

Essentially we’re going all across Canada this year filming, down in the States and pretty well everywhere,” added Freschi. WFN and WFN HD are available to more than 50-million cable, satellite, and telecommunications households throughout the United States, Canada, and the Caribbean, and is anchored by one of the top fishing websites in

WorldFishingNetwork.com. Entering its 20th season, SFOTF is now one of the longest running syndicated shows on television and continues to air on CHECK at 2 p.m. Saturday, and WFN every day at 6:30 a.m., 3:30 p.m., and 1:30 a.m. Don and his brother Dale grew up in Trail, spending countless hours prospecting local waters with an artificial fly, and many SFOTF programs focus on their favourite fisheries like the Columbia River.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LONDON - The force of “Gravity” was strong at the British Academy Film Awards on Sunday but it was unflinching drama “12 Years a Slave” that took the top prize. Steve McQueen’s visceral, violent story of a free black man kidnapped into servitude in the 19th-century U.S. South was named best picture. Its star, Chiwetel Ejiofor, took the male acting trophy. Ejiofor thanked McQueen, a visual artist who turned to filmmaking with “Hunger” and “Shame,” for bringing the story to the screen. It was a good night for lost-in-space thriller “Gravity,” which won six prizes, including best director for Alfonso Cuaron. Con-artist caper “American Hustle” charmed its way to three prizes, including original screenplay and supporting actress for Jennifer Lawrence. Its spectacular 70s stylings took the hair and makeup award. In the past few years, the British prizes, known as BAFTAs, have helped underdog films, including “Slumdog Millionaire,” ”The King’s Speech“ and ”The Artist,“ gain Oscars momentum. The awards have become an essential stop for many Hollywood stars before the Academy Awards, held this year on March 2.

‘Angry Birds’ movie in Vancouver THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER - The worldwide phenomenon “Angry Birds” will be bringing its furious fowl and evil green pigs to Vancouver as it makes its way to the big screen. Finnish video-game developer Rovio Entertainment says in a news release that it has picked Vancouver-based Sony Pictures Imageworks to be the primary animation house for the upcoming “Angry Birds” movie. Rovio CEO Mikael Hed says he searched the world for the best animation facility, and he felt Sony Pictures Imageworks fit the bill. The game has become a worldwide hit with multiple versions, in which players use a slingshot to launch colourful but irate birds toward green pigs. The “Angry Birds” movie is slated to be released in July 2016.

her family before visiting us. My kids and I are completely torn up over all of this and so deeply wounded, not only by the loss of my sister’s family, but also by the lack of support from the rest of them. I don’t understand how my parents and my other siblings could possibly support her decision. Are we wrong to feel betrayed and abandoned? We are about ready to wash our hands of the lot of them, although it isn’t what we want. My parents and siblings have told me that this is the “new normal” and that my family should be grate-

another person. You will not get the support you deserve from your family. Either accept what they offer or don’t. But please make sure your daughter is dealing with this in a healthy way. Contact RAINN (rainn.org) for information and help. Dear Annie: My inlaws, whom I adore, do not have soap in their bathrooms. My husband and I take soap when we go to visit, but that doesn’t change the fact that no one else washes their hands after using the restroom. They then proceed to prepare meals that we are supposed to eat. We have tried sending decorative soap dispensers and asking “Where’s the soap?” but nothing changes. -- Clean Freak Dear Clean: Everyone should wash with soap and water after using the bathroom and especially before preparing food. It helps prevent the

spread of germs, some of which can be quite harmful. Have you asked your in-laws why they don’t wash properly? If nothing changes, send them this letter and tell them that Annie says they need to use soap before someone gets sick, fer cryin’

out loud. Dear Annie: Kudos to “Tapped Out” for complaining about checkout line panhandling. It’s happening nearly everywhere. Why should I have to deal with solicitors when I just want to buy a hamburger? Management

may think it makes their companies look good, but it causes me to go elsewhere until the campaign is over. -- Already Give 15 Percent to Charity Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime edi-

ful for the times they see us instead of focusing on the times when we aren’t included. It feels as if we are being punished because my daughter’s assault was “not that bad” and she wasn’t willing to shove it under the rug for the rest of her life. -- Open for Input Dear Open: We understand that your parents and siblings don’t want to lose contact with your sister by openly supporting you. They know she would cut all of them off. Instead, this is the accommodation they have made in order to have a relationship with everyone. The real problem is that your sister and her husband refuse to address the assault, never apologized or tried to make amends, and blamed you and your daughter for bringing it up. We also don’t know whether her husband has ever dealt with his drinking, which is no excuse for attacking

Dear Annie: My sister’s husband sexually assaulted my 18-yearold daughter while she slept on their sofa. We kept this a secret for three years, and then it finally came out. When my sister heard, she decided to protect her children from the truth about their father by “divorcing” my family so we would not reveal the secret. She claimed her husband was “blacked-out drunk” and therefore not responsible for the assault. Because there was no intent (presumably), he wasn’t at fault. That was four years ago. My sister’s sons are the same age as mine, and they used to spend many nights together. To add salt to our wounds, the rest of my family supports her decision. They no longer take my kids to her house or to her children’s birthday parties. They never tell us when my sister is at their home. They celebrate holidays with
