Trail Regional Airport lands new manager Tasks include developing objectives for the facility BY VALERIE ROSSI Times Staff
The direction of the Trail Regional Airport (YZZ) will now be led by its new full-time manager Don Gouland. The former Calgary, Alta., resident starts at the City of Trail's newly-acquired landing strip this week. The certified commercial pilot from Aero Academy in London, Ont., holds an Honours Bachelor Degree in Business Administration and Psychology and experience in various aviation-based positions with companies like Viking Air Limited, Diamond Aircraft Industries Inc. and Lake Central Air Services. “I am thrilled about this opportunity and look forward to being part of the redevelopment team,” said Goulard in a news release. “Moving forward, I believe the DON Trail airport needs GOULAND to operate as a viable business; Generating revenue in order to support ongoing operational costs and providing quality customer service are the key factors that will lead to success. “I also look forward to looking at ways to maximize new opportunities that the airport and other cityowned lands may present.” His first order of business will be developing a set of objectives for the facility and dealing with any issues that resulted from last month’s Transport Canada audit, which will be reviewed by staff and presented to council before it's made public. Planning for a potential new terminal building will also be on the agenda once Trail city council has considered funding for its 2014 budget. See NO, Page 2

SLOPES FOR HOPE
Fight against cancer going to new heights BY VALERIE ROSSI Times Staff
Snow enthusiasts are invited to strap into their bindings and ski or board the vertical height of Mount Everest in a fight against cancer. The Canadian Cancer Society is teaming up with Red Mountain Resort and local organizers to present the second annual Slopes for Hope, a ski-a-thon event held March 16 that invites participants to ski 29,092 feet in one day (either individually or as a team effort). “It is unique in the fact that is is a winter enthusiast event inviting skiers, snowboarders and all people who love to play in the snow to join the fight against cancer as we take it to the slopes,” said Allison McCarthy, annual giving coordinator for the Canadian Cancer Society’s B.C. and Yukon division. “The purpose of this event is to raise funds and awareness for the Canadian Cancer Society in the pursuit of our mission: the eradication of cancer and enhancement of the quality of life for those living with cancer.” Slopes for Hope takes place at various ski hills throughout B.C., including Hemlock, Powder King, Kimberley, Whitewater and Red. The fundraiser just took place at Whitewater last Saturday and prior to that in Kimberley Feb. 8, where $40,000 was raised. The event started in Rossland in 2012, when about $3,500 was given, but took a hiatus last year. McCarthy hopes to make this an annual event at Red with a $5,000 goal in mind for this year. Participants are asked to fundraise prior to the event

Though School District 20 still has fewer kindergarten students enrolling than Grade 12 students leaving, the birthing rate is on the rise and enrolment is set to follow suit, according to the superintendent of schools. Based on an increased number of births in the area in 2010, 2011 and 2012, the district expects to have over 300 kindergarten students in 2015 for the first time in Greg Luterbach's nine years with the district. “We're pretty much exactly where we should be based on Interior Health Authority's birth data projections the school district does,” said Luterbach, after the first week of kindergarten registration closed last week. SD20 is currently sitting at 218 enrolled newcomers but Luterbach is confident the number will bump up to match the predicted 270-280 students expected for the 2014/2105 school year. The district looks at the number of births in the area and then decides how that will impact enrolment five years later. Further down the line, early enrolment figures are analyzed to project where the district will actually sit at the end of September. “We are currently doing some analysis of the data around students who live in the region but are home schooled, schooled through distributed learning or choose to attend the Francophone or independent schools,” Luterbach admitted. This subject is being explored since the end of September’s enrolment numbers dropped by about 100 students than projected last spring. Families who have children turning five years old between Jan. 1, 2014 and Dec. 31, 2014 are encouraged to register their children in their catchment area school right away to ensure placement.

As daylight has allowed, Pacific Coastal recently moved its afternoon departure from Trail to 4:55 p.m. The company is restricted to operations within daylight hours and since Trail does not have runway lights, the last flight to Vancouver between November and February was no later than 4 p.m. The additional flight during the former spring/summer schedule was designed to provide Greater Trail residents more travel options and greater convenience, offering
the latest departure time (6:20 p.m.), from Trail by any airline in the region. “Last summer we operated three flights daily with our 19-seat Beech 1900,” added Smith. “We just didn’t have the summer demand that support-
ed that much capacity so this year we’ve decided to reduce the schedule to two flights a day, but operate one of the two flights with our 30-passenger Saab. “Overall, it’s a 14 per cent reduction in the seat availability to the market.”

There were over 25 applicants but Gouland’s resume reflected a high level of knowledge of the issues at the Trail Airport, according to Perehudoff. The City of Trail didn’t waste time securing a manager after it took official ownership from the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary on Feb. 15.

Local teachers cast strike vote this week By Valerie Rossi Times Staff
School District 20 teachers will join their B.C. colleagues when they head to the polls this week to decide whether strike action is required to get their point across. But potential job action will not include immediate school closures or disruption for students, says Andy Davidoff, president of the Kootenay Columbia Teachers Union. The B.C. Teachers' Federation (BCTF) strike vote will take place today through Thursday, with results announced Thursday night. If job action is needed it will occur in stages but any initial
Clearing a path
action won't include school closures, an end to teachers participating in extracurricular activities or an impact on report cards or communication with parents. “After a full year of bargaining and more than 40 sessions at the table, B.C. teachers have called for a strike vote to push back against major concession demands, an unfair salary offer and a deliberately confrontational attempt to reverse the recent B.C. Supreme Court decision on class size, composition and staffing levels,” noted Jim Iker, BCTF president. Bargaining started Feb. 4 last year, basically melding from one contract bargaining table to the next.
Salmo
Cause of Shambhala death remains unknown: coroner The Nelson Star The BC Coroners Service hasn’t been able to determine exactly what caused a woman’s death at the Shambhala Music Festival near Salmo last year. On August 9, Calgary resident Jennifer Lynn Gruber-Ball, 33, was found unresponsive in her camper van and was treated by festival medical personnel. Despite advanced life support techniques provided by the Shambhala medical team, including physicians, she was pronounced dead. She was seen drinking a small amount of alcohol and eating a portion of a marijuana brownie, but her death has not been linked to drugs. According to the coroner’s
report, at midnight she went to bed in the camper van and about 3:30 a.m. she felt sick and awoke her husband. They decided to go to the medical tent, but while she was getting dressed, she collapsed. Her husband immediately called for help. A toxicology exam found nothing and a postmortem couldn’t identify the cause of death either, although it confirmed the presence of the heart defect. “This defect could not be determined to have caused a role in the death and had not caused any other anatomical changes,” coroner Andrew Cave wrote. He classified the cause of death as undetermined and made no recommendations.

Kimberley
Founder of deer protection society charged with trap tampering
The Kimberley Bulletin Kimberley’s 2014 cull of 30 mule deer is effectively over as four of the five clover traps being used were vandalized and damaged last Thursday. Devin Kazakoff, a founder of the Invermere Deer Protection Society, is one of two men charged over allegations of deer trap tampering in Kimberley last week. Kazakoff and another man, Lucky Gene Sikora, appeared before a Judicial Justice of the Peace in Cranbrook on Thursday on charges of mischief, and disguising the face with intent to commit an offence.
They were released from custody and will next appear in Cranbrook Criminal Court on May 20 to consult legal counsel. They were released with a $1,000 bail under a number of strict conditions which include: not to enter the City of Kimberley; not to be within 500 metres of a Ministry of Forests or Ministry of Environment office or facility in B.C.; not to be within 500 metres of any lawful deer trap facility; to report to a bail supervisor and abide by a curfew from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. According to RCMP, two men were arrested early on Thursday after they were observed damag-
ing a deer trap in Kimberley and fleeing the scene on foot and then in a vehicle. Police tracked the vehicle to a side road south of Kimberley and took the two men into custody. A police dog found netting from traps nearby, and a search of the vehicle found items police believe were used to tamper with the traps. Four traps in total were damaged. Kazakoff’s Invermere Deer Protection Society sued the District of Invermere in 2012, claiming that council failed to properly consult residents before deciding to carry out a deer cull. The civil suit was defeated

Mayor Ron McRae said with only one trap left, the cull is over. “We can’t do an effective cull without sufficient traps. In effect the cull is done. The permit will run out and we will not seek an extension.” McRae said that with the traps damaged in Cranbrook after a break in to the government yard in February, he didn’t believe there were any other traps left. He did not say how many deer had been culled before the traps were damaged.

The Invermere Deer Protection Society is a member of the B.C. Deer Protection Coalition, which has been outspoken against culls in Cranbrook, Kimberley and Invermere. The Animal Alliance of Canada is also a member of the Coalition. Earlier this month, 10 clover traps were stolen from a government compound in Cranbrook. Police found seven of the traps

Workers sort out contaminants at Emterra Environmental’s material recovery facility in Surrey. The plant is one of three that will process recyclables collected for Multi-Material BC.
Recycling system starts to take shape By Jeff Nagel BC Local News
A new container recycling plant will be built in the Lower Mainland this year as industry stewardship group Multi-Material B.C. takes over responsibility for an expanded blue box recycling program. MMBC on Thursday named Green By Nature EPR, a firm formed by three recycling industry partners, to handle the processing of packaging and printed paper province-wide.

Environmental and Merlin Plastics are the three companies that have joined forces to invest $32 million building the new container recycling plant, a new material recovery facility in Nanaimo, as well as other infrastructure. Green By Nature won’t handle the curbside collection of packaging – that will still be done mostly by local municipalities, except for a few locations where new collectors are yet to be named.

sort materials, and the plastics recovered are expected to be processed at Merlin Plastics’ plant in Delta. “The entire system is designed to shift everything into two streams,” said MMBC managing director Allen Langdon. “One is for fibres – newspapers, cardboard and printed papers – and the other for containers.” Green By Nature expects to employ 570 workers in all. The new system – slated to launch May 19 – promises to add 10 new types of containers

or other materials to what households can place in blue boxes. The new categories include milk cartons, foam packaging, plant pots, aluminum foil packages, plastic clamshell containers and drink cups. Langdon said a public education campaign will launch in late April. In most communities, glass bottles and jars will be directed to depots, instead of curbside pickup, but Langdon said there are exceptions, as some municipalities have opted to continue segregated glass pickup. MMBC says it needs to keep glass separate from paper and other recyclables to avoid contamination that slashes the value of materials. “There will be a much better chance of it being recycled,” Langdon said, noting 90 per cent of glass going into blue boxes actually now ends up going to landfills.
After finishing a close second to Adrian Dix in 2011, Mike Farnworth says he is running for NDP leader to correct the party’s mistakes of 2013. Offering “a progressive alternative that can win an election,” the long-time Port Coquitlam MLA referred Sunday to the NDP campaign choice to run mostly upbeat advertising to promote a platform with few specifics. “Under my watch, the B.C. NDP will never fight an election with one hand tied behind its back,” Farnworth said in an opening statement released by his campaign. “We’ll be tough on the issues and hold the B.C. Liberals to account for their disastrous record, while being clear about what we would do differently.” Farnworth also gave a hint of

Chairlift accident critically injures two THE CANADIAN PRESS
WEST KELOWNA, B.C. - Authorities say four people were taken to hospital Saturday after a cable supporting chairlift seats at a B.C. ski resort came off. A spokesman for the BC Safety Authority says the incident caused two chairs to hit the snow at the Crystal Mountain Resort in West Kelowna. Paramedics say two people were critically hurt in the six-metre fall, while two others suffered minor injuries. Ben Mittelsteadt of the BC Ambulance Service says one had to be airlifted to hospital. The BC Safety Authority is investigating the incident.

a more pro-development stance for the party, which has opposed oil pipelines and offered lukewarm support to liquefied natural gas development. “Under my leadership, the B.C. NDP will stand firmly for a strong and diversified economy that provides family-supporting jobs and builds shared prosperity,” Farnworth said. Dix won the leadership by a narrow margin in 2011, after several rounds of voting left Farnworth with 48% of participating party members. After a string of newly elected MLAs bowed out, Juan de Fuca MLA John Horgan has been reconsidering his decision not to run again.

as unconstitutional. The B.C. Civil Liberties Association argued in court that drivers should have the right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty, instead of being given an automatic penalties. But in a ruling released Monday, B.C. Appeal Court Justice Catherine Anne Ryan agreed with a lower court that the impaired driving laws, such as suspending a person’s right to drive a vehicle, are not criminal in nature. “The legislation does not supplant the Criminal Code, its purpose and effect is to regulate highways
and enhance public safety,” Ryan said in her decision. Ryan said the laws don’t lead to true penal consequences and therefore don’t infringe on a person’s right to be presumed innocent until found guilty. The B.C. Civil Liberties Association lawyer Raji Mangat said she was disappointed with Monday’s ruling. “In kind of an ironic way, you almost rather wished that you were charged under the criminal law perhaps because you’d have the presumption of innocence and that sort of thing,” she told reporters.

Games security costs rise THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO - The Progressive Conservatives demanded the resignation of the Ontario cabinet minister in charge of the 2015 Pan American Games in Toronto on Monday after it was announced security costs for the event had jumped by $33 million. While Tourism Minister Michael Chan was assurBriefs ing the legislature the Games were on time and on budget, the government announced the estimated costs of security will increase to $239 million from the last estimate of $206 million. The original cost of security built into the Toronto 2015 Pan Am budget was $113 million. “Security is evolving, and that file will evolve right up to the Games,” Chan said. Chan has no ability to control rising costs for the international sporting event and should resign or be fired, said PC critic Rod Jackson. “It’s easy to be on time and budget if your budget is a moving target and keeps going up,” said Jackson. “It’s disingenuous at best, and shows the minister does not have a grip on the Pan Am Games and it’s time for him to go.”

Headcovering OK in soccer THE CANADIAN PRESS MONTREAL - Soccer’s international rulemaking body has officially decided to allow players to wear religious headcovering during games. The International Football Association Board, which sets the rules for FIFA, made the decision today - extending a two-year trial period during which hijabs and turbans were allowed on the field. The decision follows a period of controversy in Quebec. The province’s soccer federation came under fire last summer - and was even suspended by the Canadian Soccer Association - for enforcing a ban on turbans and other religious headwear.

Fort Mac crime levels low THE CANADIAN PRESS FORT MCMURRAY, Alta. - A study suggests that Fort McMurray doesn’t deserve its reputation as a crime-ridden, wild and woolly boomtown. Neil Boyd, head of criminology at Simon Fraser University in B.C., says crime in the oilsands capital is a lot lower than the Canadian average. The study, paid for by the Fort McMurray municipality, also indicates those crime rates are falling faster in the city than elsewhere. Boyd says previous crime rates were calculated without taking into account the region’s substantial work-camp population.

Canada mulls Crimea observer mission
THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA - Canada is considering taking part in a special observer mission to Ukraine’s troubled Crimea region to debunk Russian claims that people there are at risk, The Canadian Press has learned. Ukrainian ambassador Vadym Prystaiko said many governments are looking at how to get into Crimea to see the situation on the ground and to “take this pretext from the Russians,” which they are using to support their invasion of the Crimean peninsula. “We are open for anyone who wants to come to Ukraine and see for themselves,” he said in an interview Monday at the Ukrainian embassy in Ottawa. Prystaiko was speaking just as Russia’s ambassador to the United Nations, Vitaly Churkin, told the Security Council that Russian interests faced threats in the region. He read from what he said was a letter from the fleeing President Viktor Yanukovych that asked for the Russian military “to establish legitimacy, peace, law and order, stability and defending the people of Ukraine.” Prystaiko said he would like to see Canadians take part in future election observer missions as it has
done so in the past, but added: “The mission to observe the tensions and Crimea (is) ... even more important than bringing people to observe the presidential election in May.” The envoy said he planned to meet today with Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird “to discuss the details.” “We are consulting with Foreign Affairs,” Prystaiko said, but stressed there’s been no decision by Canada to participate and the matter is simply under discussion. Baird’s office had no immediate comment. Prystaiko also questioned the buildup of Russian troops across Ukraine’s northern border. “We have to confirm it, but the local governments on the Russian side are preparing the refugee camps,” he said. Prystaiko said he was grateful for the political support from Canadians “of all political parties, the government side, the opposition.” Asked about last week’s decision by the Conservative government to exclude opposition MPs from a trip to Ukraine, Prystaiko replied: “Every Canadian politician is welcome nowadays. a If anybody wants to go to Ukraine and had a plan now to help it, we will be more than happy to accommodate the ideas.”
Prystaiko was one of his country’s top negotiators behind Ukraine’s stalled bid to join NATO. “If we were in NATO now, maybe Russia wouldn’t get so smart,” he said. He said Ukraine’s bid never came to fruition because “nobody wanted to provoke Russia.” Still, Prystaiko said he understands why Western countries, including Canada, are taking the military option off the table. “Nobody wants to fight. Nobody wants their kids and fathers to die,” he said. “The first ones who do not want it, that’s Ukrainians. Believe me we don’t want to fight and to have war on our own soil,” he added. “I understand the reluctance of everybody. The only player who seems to be less reluctant is Mr. Putin.” Earlier Monday, Prime Minister Stephen Harper telephoned his Ukrainian counterpart to offer Canada’s unwavering support. “Prime Minister Harper condemned in the strongest terms President (Vladimir) Putin’s military intervention in Ukraine,” said Jason MacDonald, Harper’s spokesman. He said Harper spoke to Arseniy Yatsenyuk from Toronto. “He expressed to Prime Minister Yatsenyuk that
Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity must be respected and that the Ukrainian people must be free to determine their own future.” Canada has summoned its ambassador to Russia home for consultations and,
along with some major allies, has suspended preparations for the G8 summit that is to be held in Russia in June. Harper said Monday that Canada was reviewing “all planned bilateral interactions” with Russia.

Crown jewel on the table in Cariboo
T
he New Prosperity mineral deposit near Williams Lake is described by the industry as one of the largest in the world, containing 5.3 billion pounds of copper and 13.3 million ounces of gold. The Harper government’s decision to reject open-pit mine development for a second time is seen by elected officials in the Cariboo region as a disaster. One of Quesnel’s sawmills is preparing to close for good, and I’ve been told there is more to come as the post-pine beetle era unfolds. Here in the B.C. capital, the decision is mainly viewed as a huge mistake. Taseko Mines is going to court to show that the federal panel used the wrong design when reviewing the company’s expensively revised plan. The province has permitted two successful mines that operate in the same area, one of which is run by Taseko.
In Ottawa, this is a Supreme Court of Canada test case over who owns the land and the mineral wealth underneath. In traditional Canadian law, the province owns it. This was highlighted in the recent discussion between B.C. Premier Christy Clark and Alberta’s Alison Redford over royalties from oil. Six aboriginal communities make up the Tsilhqot’in Nation, which has a long and bitter history of resistance against the Crown. They almost won a declaration of title to 40,000 hectares known as the Nemiah Valley: forests, wild horses, minerals and all, in a 339-day trial that ended in 2007. Their case suffered a setback at the B.C. Court of Appeal, and is now before the highest court. Aboriginal rights have been established, but this would be the first clear title.

Joe Alphonse was pleasantly surprised to see Taseko turned down again. He said the Tsilhqot’in National Government is releasing its own mining policies soon. “We welcome opportunities to look at projects that are environmentally sound and we need economic opportunities,” Alphonse told the Williams Lake Tribune. Somehow efforts to move mine waste rock from Teztan Biny (Fish Lake) to a sealed storage site two kilometres away
are not enough to protect groundwater, although they are sufficient at the nearby Gibraltar and Mount Polley mines. And Alphonse makes it clear this mysterious environmental problem will be solved once he and his fellow chiefs have control of the resource. A Supreme Court of Canada ruling on aboriginal title is required to settle this. If some limited form of title is at last defined for the treatyless majority of B.C., or at least Tsilhqot’in territory, the fate of the mine may become clear. Conventional wisdom on this is that the mining company didn’t try hard enough to establish a working relationship with the Tsilhqot’in. For his part, Taseko CEO Russell Hallbauer says the chiefs refused to meet with him, which isn’t surprising from a group that doesn’t recognize the B.C. forests ministry either.
Here’s a sample of the volume of evidence that may determine the future of B.C. Archeological studies presented at trial describe “18 roasting and/or pit depressions” at Teztan Biny. It’s not clear if these were for seasonal food preparation or for pit houses, which would indicate a more permanent settlement at the lake. Nor is it clear whether these “cultural depressions” have been identified as being of Tsilhqot’in origin. Oral histories are also uncertain. Tsilhqot’in witnesses testified that Teztan Biny has been used in the 20th century as a hunting and fishing camp. The mine was rejected due to ill-defined cultural as well as environmental concerns. B.C. residents could finally see some answers this year. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES - Liam Neeson has grounded the “The Lego Movie.” The action star’s airliner thriller “Non-Stop” arrived in first place at the weekend box office, ending the Warner Bros. animated film’s threeweek blockade at the top spot. The Universal Pictures film stars Neeson as a federal air marshal on a doomed flight. “Non-Stop” opened with $30 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. Fox’s “Son of God” debuted closely behind “Non-Stop” in second place with $26.5 million. “The Lego Movie,” which features the voices of Chris Pratt and Elizabeth Banks as characters from the blocky toy franchise, came in third place with $21 million, bringing its total domestic haul to $209.3 million.

Oscars selfie sets record THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES - Ellen DeGeneres’ goal of setting a retweet record with her star-studded selfie was achieved before the Oscars telecast was even over. During a comic bit, the Oscars host prevailed upon actor Bradley Cooper to take a picture with her and several other stars crowding around. Long before midnight Sunday, the photo had been retweeted more than two million times, breaking a record set by President Barack Obama with the picture of him hugging first lady Michelle Obama after his re-election in 2012.

Letters & Opinion Luca Hair Studio is excited to welcome
Letters to the editor
Lisa Frisk
to the team. Lisa is a fully certified esthetician and Make Up artist.
Safety on the slopes involves everyone Skiing is a wonderful sport. It involves many people sliding in different directions on a slippery surface. There are some universally recognized rules to maximize the enjoyment and minimize the risks of injuries through the interaction of all those skiers. These basics rules are often printed on lift tickets. Part of the education of skiers involves understanding those basic rules that can be called Alpine (skier or boarder) safety code. They are often referred to as Responsibility Code or Etiquette. I don’t think that the word etiquette is a strong enough word. Often we associate etiquette to how we should use our knife in a restaurant. It is often just a matter of preference if we put it on the side of the plate between usage or not. However the safety rule goes much further. The safety rule means that we don’t want to harm our neighbor. We should not plant our knife in our neighbor’s body. Those rules are presented in a variety of ways and often with different emphasis, however the main rule that is always present and is considered the most important: People ahead of you have the right of way. It is your responsibility to avoid them. It is easy to understand that the skier ahead of you does not have some rear view mirror and that she/he should concentrate on looking where he/she is going for his own safety and the safety of the skiers below. The skier from behind sees the whole situation and can take the necessary corrections even if it involves changing his/her
desired path or speed. After a few days off because of ankle problems I wanted to try my aching joints. I did not even make it to Motherlode. While doing gentle turns on the slope towards the chair once passed Main Run, I was hit with such violence that I was suddenly airborne without skis. The projectile that hit me was further down the hill. He was a mature person, with a season’s pass. He was polite enough to say his name when asked (however I won’t divulge it not to embarrass him). The scariest part is that this mature person could not realize that it was his responsibility to avoid me. He was finding all kinds of mitigating factors anyway as he said “our skis barely clipped”. The factors: I was doing gentle turns at a relatively low speed. It was not a bullet attacking him at an angle. I was well below him. I was very visible. I have a very bright green jacket so that my wife that is legally blind can follow me more easily. There was probably nobody else on the slope around us. The intensity of the contact: I weight 185 pounds and I was projected down the hill right out of my bindings. Through my jacket and two sweaters the skin was scraped off my left forearm near the elbow for a length of about 10 cm. The impact continued to my ribcage with the result that I won’t be able to sleep on that side for quite a while and my movement is limited. I feel very fortunate that my left forearm absorbed much of the impact
(probably his ski pole) otherwise I might have had a perforated lung. Imagine the same impact on a less visible young kid. What is the scariest is that this skier never learned anything from that experience. Many parents are thinking twice about hockey because of the physical dangers. I know many people who are rethinking the idea of skiing for their children because of the numerous skiers like the one who did hit me. Just a little note for the motivation of this letter: I was the 67-year-old skier who got lost on Grey and ended up spending the night sitting on his skis before successfully walking to the Big Sheep Road near KM 10 where I was picked up by an helicopter. That extremely long night was a very special experience where I could not tell if I would survive or not. I was lucky enough that my body through extensive shivering could keep my body at an acceptable temperature during the night and there was enough energy left in the morning to allow me to scramble through to the Big Sheep Road. The fact of having my ski boots on for about 30 consecutive hours resulted in quite a sore spot on my left ankle. All the scrambling under, over and through obstacles did not help my arthritic knees. I find it very ironic that, when I first tried skiing again, within 30 seconds I ended up being injured more seriously than what I suffered through that 30 hour ordeal. Paul Picard Rossland
Time to shine spotlight on Paralympics An editorial from the Waterloo Region Record For many Canadian households, a funny thing happened last week. After waking up to see Canada try to win the gold medal in Olympic men’s hockey and then observing precisely that - in strangely anticlimactic fashion - something peculiar kicked in. Oh, it may have been forestalled by taking in the compelling and often stirring closing ceremonies of the Winter Games in Sochi. But at some point, for so many of us, it hit. It was a realization of an end of something special. After contouring our days to soak up an Olympiad in yet another challenging time zone and succeeding, we found ourselves with lifestyles shaped to fit around something that was suddenly gone. It felt peculiar. But there was a mourning. There was a looming gap, and the reality of that
clunked upon us suddenly. A special relationship had ended. Good luck with the postOlympics period. It’s sad, the Games experience will fade. We recommend trying to commit to memory some terrific Olympics moments. There were so many: the Canadian cross-country ski coach giving a ski to a Russian skier with a tattered one as he slogged his way home in an early race; the miracle on ice achieved by the Canadian women’s hockey team in the gold medal game; and Alex Bilodeau repeating as an Olympic gold medallist. Then, when you catalogue some moments to hold on to, take a breath and prepare to note some additional ones. One of the things still lost in the giant fade to black of the Olympic Games is the approach of the Paralympics. Those Games are sure to be replete with stories to awe and inspire.
There won’t be the blanket coverage there was for the Olympics. That’s disappointing. But becoming invested in following those athletics is just as moving and memorable. Resolve, for example, to follow the bid of locals Billy Bridges and Bradley Bowden to strike gold in Sochi next month. These sledge hockey players have remarkable back stories and gold rush narratives as well. In their cases, these friends are superstars in their sport who will be seeking to overcome a disappointment in Vancouver and achieve what several Canadian hockey fans will be after - a triple gold in winter hockey. But there will be so many other stories to savour when the Paralympics begin on March 7. Deal with your Olympics hangover. Jump into the Paralympics. You’ll be glad you did.

PEOPLE Lupita Nyong’o
Kenya celebrates actress’ Oscar win THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NAIROBI, Kenya “You are the pride of Africa,” Kenya’s president exclaimed on Twitter as he celebrated Kenya’s first major Oscar win by actress Lupita Nyong’o. Nyong’o was the topic of the day on Kenya’s radio and TV stations Monday, the day after her Oscar win for Best Supporting Actress in the movie “12 Years A Slave.” At a conference at the United Nations headquarters in Nairobi, more than 300 people broke out into applause after Wanjira Maathai - the daughter of the late Kenyan Nobel Prize winner Wangari Maathai mentioned her mother
and Nyong’o in the same sentence. “We all had hoped of course that she would win. Everybody feels a sudden attachment to her, she’s a Kenyan woman,” Maathai said in an interview later. “A lot of her work, a lot of her experience in film started in Kenya.” Nyong’o, 31, was born in Mexico to Kenyan parents but was mostly raised in Kenya. A graduate of the Yale School of Drama, Nyong’o had starred in several productions in Kenya before landing her breakout role alongside Brad Pitt. Nyong’o had been considered a frontrunner in a category that included Jennifer

Lawrence and Julia Roberts. When her name was called Sunday, she bent over in her seat as the audience erupted. Just before her win, Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta issued a statement saying Nyong’o’s accomplishments testify to her talent and the determination to go the extra mile that success demands. At the end of her Oscar speech, Nyong’o asked that her win remind “every little child that no matter where you’re from your dreams are valid.” Maathai spoke Monday, which is Wangari Maathai Day in Africa, to honour the Nobel prize winner’s dedication to the environment. She said that like her mother, Nyong’o is another Kenyan who has reached great heights. “She (Nyong’o) attributes to her suc-

cess to a lot of other black actresses who made her believe she could be something and that she could make it in film,” Maathai said. “And I think it’s so important to have role models, so important to have people who you can say, ‘Ah, if she made it, maybe I can too.”’ David Opondoe, the managing director of Phoenix Players, a Kenya-based theatre company where Nyong’o performed earlier in her career, said Nyongo’s success will encourage many in in Kenya to embrace the arts. “It shows that there is so much talent, only that the opportunities are not there,” he said. “It’s time for parents and government to see that this is not a pastime. It’s something you can do professionally and bring glory.” More than 1,000 people have auditioned at the Phoenix Players this year, he said, whereas before they had to actively hunt actors for parts.

Smokies, City honour Tiger By Jim Bailey
Times Sports Editor
The Trail Smoke Eaters hockey club ended its home season with class and generosity Friday at the Cominco Arena. Before the Smokies faced off against the West Kelowna Warriors, the City of Trail and the Smoke Eater organization made a special centre-ice presentation to Tiger Milburn for over-50 years as public address announcer and countless hours of volunteer work at the Cominco Arena - then they gave away over $60,000 to lucky lotto winners during the second intermission. Smoke Eater executive directors Jack Beard and Rick Basso presented Milburn with a commemorative placard to mark his contribution to the Smokies organization, and show just how vital he and his covolunteers are to the team. “I think it’s important, because volunteers like Tiger and the guys that work in the Spud Shack, these guys are true volunteers, they don’t ask for anything back, they buy their wives seasons tickets every year, as well as do the work they do,” Basso told the Times following the ceremony. “They’re from the old breed and you just don’t have those kinds of volunteers anymore.” City of Trail Mayor Dieter Bogs then took the microphone and announced that the time-keeper/announcer’s space between the penalty boxes, where Milburn has toiled for the past 50 years, would forever more be known as ‘Tiger’s Den.’ “It was brought
to our attention that Tiger had 50 years in the penalty box, and somebody said ‘My God, he owns the place’,” explained Bogs. “So we said, ‘Well the least we can do is have a plaque and picture of him in the penalty box.’ “I can’t think of anybody who has put that kind of dedication to any cause in our community. The Smokies are very proud of him and we’re very proud of him.” The modest Milburn wasn’t expecting the fanfare and needed some convincing from the Smokie executive to accept the honour; but in the end, the Trail native was humbled and moved by the experience. “Awesome, it’s just awesome,” Milburn said. “Rick Basso phoned me half-way through the month and asked me what I was doing on the 28th, I said, ‘Nothing,’ and he said, ‘We’re going to do a little something for you.’ And I said, ‘I don’t want anything,’ and he says, ‘Good, we’re going to have it anyhow.’” It was a suitable ending to a season that was a challenge on the ice, but a reminder of what it takes to keep the Smoke Eaters going. “I think I started in 1962,” said Milburn. “It’s been great, and it just seems like yesterday. I just love doing it.” At their banquet last week, the Smoke Eaters also awarded Milburn a collector’s edition watch with the emblem of the Smoke Eaters on the front and an inscription on the reverse side that sums it all up for Milburn “Smoke Eater for life.”

Clockwise from top: It was a tribute to Tiger Milburn night on Friday at the Cominco Arena as the Trail Smoke Eaters and City of Trail recognized his 50-years as public address announcer and volunteer. The City commemorated his seat between the penalty boxes with a plaque in what will now be known as Tiger’s Den, and the Smoke Eaters rewarded him with a framed placard as tribute to his half-century of dedication to the team. After the speeches, the Smoke Eaters Brian Basilico, 20, hit the ice against former Trail assistant captain Braden Pears, 27. The Warriors would take the season ending two-game-series by scores of 6-4 and 8-3 and tie Penticton for top spot in the BCHL Interior division.
Smoke Eaters close out season: hopeful Vees top Interior By Jim Bailey
Times Sports Editor
The Trail Smoke Eaters were in tough playing their final two games of the season against a team hungry for first place in the Interior division. The West Kelowna Warriors did what they had to do to win the division title with 6-4 and 8-3 wins over the Smoke Eaters on Friday and Saturday, but the Penticton Vees pulled out their third straight division title with a 3-2 overtime win against the Salmon Arm SilverBacks in the final regular season game Saturday. Both the Vees and Warriors ended up atop the Interior division standings with 78 points, but the Vees took first place by virtue of one more victory, 36, than the Warriors. The Vees beat the SilverBacks on Friday 3-1 before the overtime win propelled them to the number one seed. The Backs had success against the Vees early in the season and were in the thick of a playoff hunt until they went on an 0-10

skid to end the year. Instead, the Merritt Centennials will take the fourth seed in the division winning their final three games to finish with 67 points and will face the Vees in the first round, while the Vernon Vipers nabbed third spot with 70 points and will play the Warriors in round one. The Smokies fought hard in the first match Friday, but the Warriors, keen on seizing first place, were merciless in the second match in West Kelowna Saturday firing 61 shots at Smokie goalie Dustin Nikkel for the 8-3 victory. West K decided the game in the first period, jumping out to a 4-0 lead on goals from Tyson Dallman, Liam Blackburn, Matt Arnholt, and Carl Hesler. Kylar Hope would make it 5-0 before Trail’s Jake Lucchini got the Smokies on the board with assists from Bryan Basilico and Scott Davidson. But David Pope would net a pair and Jason Cotton another with 70 seconds to go in the middle frame to put the Warriors up 8-1. The Smokies kept the Warriors off the board in the third, and would score twice on goals
from Lucchini, his second of the night, and Nathan Browne. In Friday’s game, the Warriors jumped out to a 5-1 second-period lead, but the Smokies showed resilience, and battled back to make it a closer 6-4 final. Lucchini scored once and added two assists and was named the game’s third star, while Brandon Volpe netted a pair of goals for the Smokies, and Davidson added a single marker. Despite the wins, Warrior head-coach Rylan Ferster was concerned about the team’s goals against going into the playoffs. “We certainly are going to have to shore up in our own end a little bit,” Ferster said on the team’s website. “We gave up four last night and three tonight and I think if you’re giving up any more than three in any playoff game you’re probably not going to be winning too many. You can’t be expecting to score five and six in the playoffs so the defensive side of the game will be a focus for us.” The Smokies’ line of Davidson, Basilico, and Jesse
Knowler has been nothing short of spectacular in the final 10 games of the season. Each has virtually doubled their season output over that period with Basilico adding 16 points, and Knowler 14, including a season high five-point night against the Vernon Vipers in the 6-5 victory Wednesday. Davidson has been on fire, after a slow start, the Trail native netted 10 goals and seven assist in his last nine games to top the Smokies in scoring with 16-19-35. Lucchini has also been a bright spot in the Smokies lineup climbing into fourth spot in Smokies scoring with 8-18-26, an 18 point improvement from last season’s totals. “There are definitely some players that are taking advantage of it (extra ice time) and rising to the occasion,” said Smoke Eater coach Nick Deschenes. “That whole line has been playing really well.” It was a season where little went right for the Smokies. After a decent start initially, the team struggled, and coach Bill Birks was replaced by Nick Deschenes. See OFFSEASON, Page 12

Nitehawks sweep Rebels By Times Staff The Beaver Valley Nitehawks knocked the Castlegar Rebels out of the playoffs in four straight in the first round of the KIJHL Neil Murdoch division playoff. After winning Games 2 and 3 handily on Thursday and Friday by scores of 7-2 and 8-3, the Hawks went on to win Game 4 Sunday by a score of 6-5. The Hawks jumped out to a 4-0 first period lead on a pair of goals by Riley Brandt, and single tallies from Braden Fuller and Dan Holland. After Nate Rabbitt ceded four goals on 13 shots in the first period, the Rebels inserted midget AP Solomon Burke between the pipes for the second. Burke played well, as the Rebels got on the board with a Connor Beauchemin tally. But Calvin would restore the four-goal lead, and net what would stand up as the winner and give the Hawks a 6-2 lead headed into the third. The Rebels would fight back scoring three unanswered goals, but the Hawks would hold on for the 6-5 playoff win. Grayson Sharpe faced 34 Rebels shots, while Burke stopped 27 of 29 Nitehawk drives.

The Hawks now await the winner of the Nelson Leafs and Spokane Braves semifinal series that resumed Monday. The Leafs took a 3-1 series lead over the Braves with a 2-1 win on Saturday in Spokane. Scores for Monday’s game were unavailable at press time and the next Nitehawk match has yet to be determined. In the Eddie Murdoch division the Creston Valley Thundercats made short work of the Columbia Valley Rockets taking four straight including a 9-2 thumping in their final match Saturday. The Kimberley Dynamiters meanwhile took a 3-1 series lead over the Fernie Ghostriders with a 4-3 overtime win in Game 4 on Saturday. The winner will face the Cats. In the Okanagan/Shushwap Conference the Kamloops Storm rolled off three straight wins after Sicamous won the opening match, to take a 3-1 edge, while 100-Mile House are up 3-2 on the Chase Heat. The fourth-seed North Okanagan Knights hold a 3-2 edge over firstseed Summerland Steam, with the winner facing the Osoyoos Coyotes who took out the Kelowna Chiefs in four straight.

Offseason critical for Smokies
FROM PAGE 11 The former KIJHL coach of the Grand Forks Border Bruins started rebuilding immediately, dealing his 20-year-old players, save goaltender Dustin Nikkel, in favour of a youth movement. “I am probably learning a bit of a lesson here,” said Deschenes. “I came on with about 40 games to go, but where the team was at there wasn’t really any hope. I mean call it an experiment, what I did with Grand Forks was a bit of a youth movement and trying to identify players and give them an opportunity now so when next year rolls around we’re in good shape.” Deschenes admits that the team may have not reached his expectations, but a number of factors contributed including trades, players requesting trades, as well as season ending injuries. Still with one of the youngest teams in the league, the Smoke Eater coach is optimistic. “I think if you look beneath the core there’s definitely been a bit of a change in culture and I think a work ethic that’s been established so moving forward we still need a lot of pieces to

the puzzle but in a direction I’m happy with,” he said. “It’s an ongoing process, but I think there are players who have bought in, and are really committed and at the end of the day that’s the key ingredient – the commitment, the accountability and the work ethic.” Deschenes will be keeping tabs on all the players over the summer, and expects hard work and dedication throughout the offseason. “When you have youth to progress you need to get physically stronger, faster, while developing your skills, and there’s definitely a maturity and experience factor that kicks in for the following season.” Just who will return next year, Deschenes says it’s too early to comment on, but he will be working hard to ensure the Smokies have a solid foundation to build on come September. “The off-season is going to be critical for a lot of players, and it’s going to be critical for our organization. My job is to ice the best team possible . . . we’re recruiting North America basically to find (MJHP TZY \JJPQ^ Ć^JWX the right players. It’s going to be a busy offseason.”

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES - “12 Years a Slave” took the top prize at the 86th Academy Awards on Sunday night, but the force of “Gravity” exerted itself as the space drama won seven Oscars including a history-making best director award for Alfonso Cuaron. The 3-D space spectacle was the most honoured film at the Dolby Theatre ceremony hosted nimbly by Ellen DeGeneres. The Mexican Cuaron is the first Latino filmmaker to take best director. “It was a transformative experience,” said Cuaron, who spent some five years making the film and developing its visual effects. “For a lot of people, that transformation was wisdom. For me, it was the colour of my hair.” He thanked his star, Sanda Bullock, the sole person on screen for much of the lost-in-space drama: “Sandra, you are ‘Gravity.”’ Bullock lost the best actress award to Cate Blanchett, the star of Woody Allen’s “Blue Jasmine.” Matthew McConaughey won best actor honours while Lupita Nyong’o and Jared Leto took supporting acting prizes in a smooth if safe Oscar ceremony Sunday punctuated by politics, pizza and photo-bombing. Wearing a dress of Nairobi blue, the 31-yearold Nyong’o, breakout star of the historical drama “12 Years a Slave,” accepted the award for best supporting actress. In her feature film debut, Nyong’o made an indelible impression as the tortured slave Patsey. “It doesn’t escape me for one moment that so much joy in my life is thanks to so much pain in someone else’s, and so I want to salute the spirit of Patsey for her guidance,” said Nyong’o. Glowing backstage, she cradled her statuette: “I’m so happy to be holding this golden man.” DeGeneres’ second stint was a kind of amiable, light-footed correction from last year’s “We Saw Your Boob”-singing host Seth MacFarlane. After warmly needling stars in a dance-free opening monologue, she circulated freely in the crowd. DeGeneres had pizza delivered, appealing to Harvey Weinstein to pitch in. See SHOW, Page 14

‘Slave’ wins big prize, ‘Gravity’ nets seven Oscars

TV LISTINGS
Show had musical beat FROM PAGE 13 Leto won best supporting actor for his acclaimed, gaunt performance as a theatrical transgender suffering from AIDS in the Texas drama “Dallas Buyers Club.” He thanked his mother, his date on the night. “Thank you for teaching me to dream,” said Leto. Later backstage, he passed around his Oscar to members of the press, urging them to “fondle” it. The long-haired actor, who has devoted himself in recent years to his rock band 30 Seconds to Mars, gravely vowed: “I will revel tonight.” Though the ceremony lacked a big opening number, it had a steady musical beat to it. To a standing ovation, Bono and U2 performed an acoustic version of “Ordinary Love,” their Oscarnominated song from “Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom,” a tune penned in tribute to the late South African leader Nelson Mandela. Singing his nominated “Happy” from “Despicable Me 2,” Pharrell Williams had Streep and Leonardo DiCaprio dancing in the aisles. Pink was cheered for her rendition of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” part of a 75th anniversary tribute to “The Wizard of Oz.” And Bette Midler sang - what else? - “Wind Beneath My Wing” for the in memoriam segment - an especially heartfelt one, considering the deaths of Philip Seymour Hoffman, Harold Ramis, James Gandolfini and others. Best documentary went to the crowd-pleasing backup singer ode “20 Feet From Stardom.” One of its stars, Darlene Love, accepted the award singing the gospel tune “His Eye Is on the Sparrow”: “I sing because I’m happy/ I sing because I’m free.” Disney’s global hit “Frozen” won best animated film,. With box-office that recently passed $1 billion globally, the film was sure to be the biggest hit to take home an Oscar on Sunday. The film’s “Let It Go” won best original song. “We’re all just trying to make films that touch people,” said co-director Chris Buck backstage. “Once in a while, you get lucky.” Though the Oscar ceremony is usually a glitzy bubble separate from real-world happenings, international events were immediately referenced. In his acceptance speech, Leto addressed people in Ukraine and Venezuela. “We are here and as you struggle to make your dreams happen, to live the impossible, we’re thinking of you,” said Leto.

anymore. Her answer stunned me. My weight gain was such that she no longer finds me physically attractive. I thought I was a good person and a good husband. Apparently none of that mattered enough. She finally agreed to couples counseling. We went once and things improved for about two weeks, but then her mother’s health declined and everything was put on the back burner. I started going to the gym and lost five pounds, but no more. Our bed is a dead zone. I don’t know whether it’s better to be lonely in a mar-
as physically. Dear Annie: A person I know gossips nonstop. She can tell you the latest about everyone in the neighborhood. She also badmouths people behind their backs. She uses the guise of caring to find out whatever she can so she can spread more gossip. She is manipulative and deceitful and uses people to get what she wants, including favors and free rides. Worse, she presents herself as deeply religious. Am I wrong to want as little as possible to do with this woman? -- Don’t Know Dear Don’t Know: You do know. This woman sounds toxic. She doesn’t deserve an audience. Avoiding her won’t make her stop gossiping about you or badmouthing you behind your back. But at least you won’t have to listen to the malicious things she says about others, which can color how you perceive them.
Dear Annie: I am writing about the letter from “Not the Company’s Bank,” the wife whose husband was not being reimbursed for his business expenses in a timely fashion. I am happy to suggest an easy solution.
Hubby should go to the boss or accounting department and ask for a company credit card to be used solely for his business expenses. Instead of needing reimbursement, each month’s bill would be sent directly to the firm. The husband
could have a copy in order to break down the expenses by client for billing purposes or to justify a questionable expense. The responsibility for timely payment would be squarely in the firm’s control. -- A Former Bookkeeper

riage or to be alone. I know we should return to counseling, but between her mother’s health, financial issues, underachieving teenagers and my own depression, I am not seeing the point and no longer believe all of this effort will make any difference. Any suggestions? -- Frustrated on the West Coast Dear West Coast: Right now, you don’t have the energy to work on your intimacy issues on top of everything else. And even if you did, your wife might not. Life is full of stressful periods, and you cannot let the overriding problem in your marriage slide by while you wait for things to settle down. Get back into counseling for your own sake, whether your wife goes or not. It will help you reach clarity about your situation and how to proceed. And please work on your weight to get healthier. You’ll feel better mentally, as well

Dear Annie: I’d give anything to be intimate with my wife, in any form. We’ve been married for 18 years. We have not made love in more than three. We also don’t hold hands, hug, kiss or cuddle. We have pleasant conversations, and I would classify us as compatible roommates. My wife once had a very active libido, but there was a decline in sexual frequency after the birth of our second child. We had many conversations about it, but she and I both attributed it to crazy schedules and her moderate weight gain. She joined Weight Watchers and lost the weight. In the meantime, I gained 65 pounds. I help out around the house as best I can. I bathe and groom regularly. I went for counseling by myself and then started hinting to her about wanting to resume sex. Last year, I finally asked her why we don’t make love

YourByhoroscope Francis Drake For Saturday, March 1, 2014 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You feel introspective today. That’s because today’s New Moon is taking place in the hidden part of your chart, which makes you want to examine your life in a thoughtful way. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Do you hang out with quality people? Your friends influence you because they affect your mind, and your mind makes the choices that affect the rest of your life. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Today’s New Moon urges you to think about your relationship to authority. Do you immediately bristle or rebel? Actually, we all have to deal with authority figures -- even The Donald. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) What further education or training will improve your job? Or perhaps enrich your life? Think about this.
Tuesday, March 4, 2014 Trail Times
LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Today’s New Moon urges you to work to become debtfree. You are a big spender, but you also can save voraciously if you have a goal. (Oh yeah.) VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) The only New Moon opposite your sign all year is taking place today. That means this is your best chance to think how to improve your partnerships and closest friendships. Ideas? LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) What can you do to improve your job? Can you get a different job? Can you improve the job you now have? What about improving the conditions or the appearance of where you work? SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) This is the only New Moon all year that urges you to respect your creative talents. Children love to sing, dance and draw. But adults are
fearful. Consider how you can express your creativity. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) How can you improve your relationships with family members? And also, what can you do to improve your home life? This is a perfect day to think about this. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Are you a good communicator? Half the battle is actually listening to others
-- not just hearing them, but listening. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Today’s New Moon is your chance to get on top of your financial scene. After all, information is power. Do you know exactly what you earn and what you own? PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Take a realistic look in the mirror, and ask yourself what you can do to
improve your appearance. After all, you never get a second chance to make a first impression. YOU BORN TODAY You are creative. Many of you learn to perfect a particular technique. You are aware of your appearance and make an effort to look well put together. Plus you are charming, diplomatic and gracious, and you know how to keep things lighthearted and pleasant -- valuable

Sunshine passes, shadows fall, Love’s remembrance outlasts all. And though the years be many or few, They are filled with memories of both of you. In our hearts forever Donnie, Peggy and family Moe, Lenore and family BUSHER MCINTYRE Gone but not forgotten Your family
