Get back to the basics—Reenergize your business, was the theme of Small Business 2014 last week and entrepreneurial talent from across the Boundary packed the Grand Forks Curling Rink last Thursday to celebrate with those chosen to receive 2014 Business Excellence Awards and Community Service Awards. “Small business is significant in B.C.,” said Wendy McCullough, manager of Community Futures Boundary (CFB) and economic development officer for the Boundary region. B.C., with 83.4 per 1,000 population, has more small businesses per capita than elsewhere in the country, she said. McCullough shared news that the City of Grand Forks was awarded a BC Small Business Roundtable Open for Business award, which came with $10,000. The presentation took place at the Union of BC Municipalities convention last month. She also noted that CFB was awarded the Provincial Community Futures Association Award for excellence in innovation for their work in support of the regional chamber of commerce; and that the Boundary Country Regional Chamber of Commerce (BCRCC) was awarded the Communications Award by the BC Chamber Executives for chambers under 200 members. CFB, BCRCC and the City of Grand Forks sponsored the evening of awards and networking. The awards were announced by CFB Resource Worker Jay Alblas following an address by MLA Linda Larson. The Business Service Excellence Award recognizes a business that provides superior products and/or services; sponsored by the Boundary Country Regional Chamber of Commerce.

Trails project officially unveiled CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
About 30 people showed up for the official unveiling of the Grand Forks-Christina Lake multi-use trails project on Wednesday, Oct. 15 at the Morrissey Creek staging area. The project was spearheaded by the Grand Forks ATV Club, which brought together about 20 partners for the project which saw signage, benches, washrooms, picnic tables and staging areas at three different sites on the trails. Hosting the event was Doug Zorn, vicepresident of the ATV club. Zorn and Pat Blew, GF ATV Club secretary, handed out certificates of appreciation to all the various partners who have helped with the project. Zorn was pleased with the great turnout and thought the event was a success.
“It went really well,” he told the Gazette. “I’m certainly glad with the amount of people who came out in support of this. As well, (I’m happy with) how many people have been supportive of the whole project. Zorn said the project has been a true collaboration with all the various groups working together to bring the project to fruition. He adds that the trail is very popular for people walking, mountain biking and snowmobiling, as well as for ATV users. “It’s something that we haven’t really created, it was always here,” said Zorn. “We just want to educate people on what is here and how to use it with a little more care and respect for the wildlife.” The trails project was also able to employ three people through a $52,000 Job Creation grant the ATV Club received from the provincial government.
Cusack given jail time
CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
Christopher Cusack, the man who set fire to both the Winnipeg and Grand Forks Hotels in 2012, has received a total of four years and six months (less credit for 15 months served) jail time. Sentencing took place on Friday, Oct. 17 at Rossland Supreme Court by Judge Fabbro. In May of this year, Cusack pled guilty to two counts of arson in relation to an inhabited property. Cusack received three years for the first count

and 18 months for the second count. The fires, which were set on March 7, 2012, caused $1 million damage to the Grand Forks Hotel and $10,000 damage to the Winnipeg Hotel. The 100-year-old Grand Forks Hotel was destroyed, while firefighters managed to save the Winnipeg Hotel. It was, however, eventually torn down. Cusack was also given a 10-year mandatory firearm prohibition. According to Rossland Court Services, Cusack was given a psychiatric evaluation earlier but was found fit for trial.

The majority of the money will go to construction of a school and teacherage at Westbridge. 1964 A hunting accident at Fernie resulted in the hospitalization there of Harold Pennoyer, son of Mr. And Mrs. Cy Pennoyer of Grand Forks. 1974 The USCC has submitted a grant for funds under the local Initiative Program in connection with a project worth $40,000, to carry out improvements at the USCC community centres in Grand Forks and Brilliant. 1979 Calling upon members to “roll up our sleeves and let’s start to rebuild,” USCC Honourary Chairman John J. Verigin turned the first sod, marking the official start of construction of a new USCC community centre at Grand Forks. 1984 Andy Surinak Sr. was a strong, active member of this community until his death earlier this month. He was a member of a family that helped to

settle this region. 1989 Last April, a J.A. Hutton School parents group, headed by Fay Malins and Laverne Semenoff, embarked on a program to raise in excess of $16,000 for community playground equipment to be located at the school. The happy volunteers gathered Saturday for a group picture after completing installation of the new facilities.
1994 Grand Forks has been recognized as having one of the premier Halloween events in British Columbia. Beautiful BC magazine recommends the Grand Forks Rotary Halloween Bonfire as an event to attend in the Kootenay-Boundary region.
1999 The initial work to get ready for the new Southern Crossing gas pipeline has started, a project that could mean a significant injection of money into the area. The cost of the projects is estimated at $376 million; about $190 million is planned to be spent in B.C. There are three geographic areas for construction: from Oliver to the Christina Lake area, from the Lake to Salmo; and from Salmo to Yahk. The crossing is a 316-km pipeline, 24 inches in diameter. 2004 The renovations for the interior of Grand Forks City Hall ended up costing $281,819.79, almost three times as much as originally allotted. 2009 The Kootenay Boundary Regional Detachment of the RCMP was very active during the summer, seizing thousands of marijuana plants. Inspector Nick Romanchuk said in his fall report that 14,130 plants from 88 sites were seized from throughout the region. The majority of the marijuana was seized from Crown land, he added.

Hello, my name is Chilco. I am a Husky/Malamute hybrid super dog. The best! When I was younger (just a puppy) I ate grasshoppers like it was a locust swarm. YUM! Today though, I refined my diet to a more nutritious staple provided for by my parents. I have a brother dog named Skya and two cat siblings named Maximus and Sapphire ( I barely tolerate them but love them :P ). I have a really good life and live in an amazing yard to live in... like the garden of Eden. I have wonderful parents who spoil me with so many wonder things. Thanks for listening – Chilco

1909 One of the largest local industries in this district is the huge YaleColumbia sawmill at Billings, 12 miles east of town. About 100 men are employed there and the mills are cutting about 65,000 board feet per day. 1914 The big clock in the post office was installed in position during the past week but has not yet been set in motion. 1919 A.A. Frechette of Grand Forks opened a harness shop on Bay Avenue in Trail. He is one of the oldest harnessmakers in this section of the country, having conducted shops in the Boundary country in the days of railroad construction in Midway and Greenwood and has had a shop in Grand Forks for about 15 years. 1924 Dr. Primrose, who had been spending several weeks holidaying in England, was in Grand Forks last week, the guest of Rev. Phillip C. and Mrs. Hayman, while en route back to his Victoria home. 1929 The World Series was won by Connie Mack’s henchmen when the Philadelphia Athletics defeated the Chicago Cubs, taking four out of five games. 1934 Writing in the Daily Province, Alex Shaw, who recently visited Greenwood, said, “It is appropriate that a mining centre like Greenwood should have as a mayor, J.A. Morrison, a man who is actively interested in the industry.” 1939 The Doukhobor sawmill at Spencer, six miles west of town, was destroyed by fire on Tuesday afternoon, together with about a million feet of timber. Damage is estimated at about $30,000.

Mural project on hold CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
After much jockeying back and forth, the much anticipated mural project at City Park has been put on hold. At the Oct. 6 regular council meeting, Grand Forks city council rejected the latest proposal from the mural committee asking for $6,000 for the project. The plan was to have local artists paint a mural on two sides (one each building) on the walls of the washroom and lift station at City Park. Councillor Gary Smith, who sat on the committee as a representative for council (along with Michael Wirischagin), said the group wanted the city to pay for a project coordinator. “They wanted to pay for a coordinator and we basically said this isn’t quite what we initially talked about, so we declined,” he said. Smith said the project was originally supposed to be all volunteers with the artists giving up their time. “The city was to supply paint and scaffolding and that kind of thing. No one was to be paid at all.” Adding to the bedlam was the fact that Benson Musaev, who was instrumental in forming the committee, moved away recently leaving the committee without a leader. The proposal to council stated that the committee met on Sept. 18 and discussed
what was needed to move the project forward “after an apparent stall.” The main roadblocks were defined as: difficulty with the support surface, compensation for a project manager, and purchase of the rights of replication for original artwork for the mural. The new asking cost of $6,000 would include $1,200 for a project manager and $800 for an art honourarium for the rights to reproduce the artwork. The rest ($4,000) would go towards supplies. Mayor Brian Taylor said that the next council will likely revisit the mural project in the spring. “There are some people who would like us to sit down right after the election and start planning for next year,” he said. “There are artists who would like to see us recognize and respect the artist’s time and not simply ask for volunteers to do it. I agree with that. I think it’s the kind of service we need to value from our community.” Taylor said that artist impressions such as the mural project are things that the city should be prepared to pay for. “The complications they ran into with that first project realizing they couldn’t work on that rough surface (on the walls of the two buildings) they had to deal with threw a big wrench into their plans and also put their budget off track,” he said. “It’s so off track at this point a fresh start in the spring is what we need to do.”
Steven McGibbon, operations manager for BETHS shelter, said the first year for the extreme weather shelter in the new MAAP location went very well. The second year in the new location starts Saturday, Nov. 1. The shelter will be open from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. every day. Craig Lindsay photo
Shelter opens Nov. 1
CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
After a successful first year in their new location in the multi-agency accommodation project (MAAP) building, the Boundary Emergency and Transitional Housing Society (BETHS) extreme weather shelter is gearing up to start their second year. Steven McGibbon, operations coordinator for BETHS shelter, said things went very well last year at the new location and they are hoping for another successful year this year. “Whether it’s a coincidence or not, we doubled our bed nights from the previous year,” said McGibbon. “Last year we had 546 bed nights.” It’s good that BETHS is able to provide a place to stay that’s safe, he added. “(Sleeping outside) can be potentially deadly. It can aggravate all sorts of health issues, not having a safe place to stay.” The shelter also takes in people whose vehicle may have broke down and they couldn’t get a hotel or some similar situation. “It’s not just the homeless here, it’s anyone who needs or requires a safe, secure place to stay,” he said. “We’re considered a low barrier shelter. Many other shelters will not let you in if you’ve had a drink or other substance. We accept those who have had substances as long as they
comply with the rules. There is absolutely no use of drugs or alcohol on the property but we don’t turn anyone away if they’ve participated.” McGibbon said the shelter relies heavily on volunteers to operate. Every single night, the shelter has a minimum of two people on duty (as required by law): one paid and one volunteer. The shelter is open to anyone including families with children. McGibbon said the guests using the shelter have really appreciated the new features at the new location, including the shower and laundry facilities and common room with television, games and books. “People coming in are usually a bit wary but after awhile they relax,” he said. “I have yet to hear anyone say it’s a terrible place. The typical comment is, ‘I’m really glad I came here. I was unsure. I feel comfortable.’” Another huge benefit of the MAAP building is that the guests have immediate access to the soup kitchen at Whispers of Hope. “Now when our guests leave in the morning they can go get something to eat in a warm place with Whispers of Hope,” said McGibbon. McGibbon said that the shelter is always looking for volunteers to help out. Anyone interested can go down to BETHS and speak to McGibbon.

Shelter a safe haven for many With the weather getting crisper outside, it’s time to trade in the fans and air conditioners for space heaters and blankets. Fall is definitely upon us and winter is coming. For most of us, the worst thing we’ll face is increased electric and gas bills; however, for a certain segment of the population, those who are homeless face much bigger challenges. There are many reasons why people become homeless, whether it’s through drugs, alcohol, mental health issues, or maybe they ran away from a difficult home life of abuse or neglect. Whatever the reason, living on the street is not easy. Grand Forks is not Edmonton or Prince George but it still gets very cold at night when you don’t have four walls around you. Sleeping outside can be potentially deadly and can aggravate health issues. Jim Harrison, Staff Sgt. for the Grand Forks RCMP and volunteer chair for BETHS, believes the number of homeless in Grand Forks has been rising recently. “There appears to be a visible increase in the number of people sleeping at the side of the river or under bridges and that sort of things,” he said. Fortunately, BETHS extreme weather shelter is opening soon (Nov. 1 at 8 p.m.). The first year at the new location in the MAAP building has gone very well and the guests are very appreciative of all the new services such as the shower and laundry facilities.
Two characters that made this a wonderful place Growing Up In Grand Forks The Best Place on Earth
MILTON ORRIS It just takes one person— or at least one at a time—to make a big difference (young people in a small community.) It’s not just about “doing great things,” it is also about leading a different, interesting, memorable life. Two of these people from my growing up years were Jim Flynn and Rattlesnake Bill (whose last name we scarcely ever heard and I have forgotten!). Jim Flynn and his wonderful horse Goldie lived up on Rattlesnake Mountain for decades in a small log cabin. Jim had come to Grand Forks after the First World War to recover from being gassed. His English doctor said he needed to go somewhere where the air was pure, clean and healthy— Western Canada was his suggestion. How Jim ended up in Grand Forks no one knows, but here he was until his death in his late ’70s.

He was for many years the pro at the Grand Forks Golf Club. Where was that, you ask? On the flat areas just above the highway on Rattlesnake Mountain—where rattlesnakes were sometimes spectators (or if you weren’t careful) participate in your game. The fairways were a little rough, and the greens were groomed smooth sand. The golf clubs were all wooden shafts and mine must have been 25 years old (about 10 years older than I was). However, we didn’t know anything else so it was great. And Jim taught me not only golfing, also patience and selfcontrol and persistence when I hit one of my many bad shots. That is not why Jim was so well known. He was a pretty heavy drinker in his earlier years, and he would often come into his favourite drinking spot, the Yale Hotel, and get quite dosed up. “Don’t worry,” Jim would say, when people would ask him how he would get home. “Goldie knows the way.” And no matter the season, through rain or blizzard, she did. He made many famous
rides. The most memorable one was on New Year’s Eve when he arrived at the hotel—and happily rode Goldie into the bar and ordered her a beer. The story is that Mr. Fedorak, owner of the hotel was not pleased; however, everyone else in the crowded bar cheered when Goldie took a slurp or two. A few short years later Jim totally sobered up his life and rode Goldie to Vancouver raising money for health-related children’s charities, a few thousand dollars in total. He gave a lot to our community in his very own way: our local Frank Sinatra, “I Did It My Way.” Well how about Rattlesnake Bill? He lived in a small house along the street by the Granby River. You could walk by his front yard and almost every day there was a cage beside the fence with one or more big rattlesnakes in it. Great to look at; however, don’t get too close. What were they doing there? Well, Rattlesnake Bill earned his living by trekking up Rattlesnake Mountain, catching rattlesnakes, bring-

ing them home and extracting their venom into glass containers which he then took to medical labs where they turned it into anti-venom serums. Bill was very independent and self-sufficient yet very friendly. He loved to come out when some of us would come by to look at the snakes, and tell us all about them. He loved them, he said. And he roused our curiosity so one of our weekend adventures was to climb up Rattlesnake Mountain and look for “rattlers,” as we call them. And we did find them. My most memorable “find” was a den of 20 or more, young “newborns” and their parents. They rattled away at us as we looked over the edge of the pit. When a couple of the adults started moving towards us to welcome us for dinner, we said our hasty goodbyes and moved on. What Bill taught us was an appreciation of everything in nature—the mountains, the creatures living there, and how every living thing contributed something to our society. Grand Forks—a wonderful place with wonderful people.

Opinion
to the editor
Five minutes can make difference Editor, The Gazette: I, like many others in the Grand Forks area, have felt the absence of our gentle giant Dr. Henry Ajaero. On Friday last I had a doctor’s appointment for a prescription refill at 12:10 p.m.; I arrived seven or so minutes late but was greeted at reception and moved to a waiting room for the doctor. After a 10 or 15 minute wait there is a knock on the door and the receptionist advises me that the doctor doesn’t have the time to see me and I will have to reschedule my appointment or go to emergency. My day finally ended at five hours later. FIVE MINUTES (this letter will take less than one minute to read) You are welcome for the five minutes I gave as I waited for you. I would like to pass on one of my personal experiences of five minutes when I served in Iraq and Kuwait. Often returning to base after missions or supply runs my section would often hand out candy and rations to the children who gathered or chased our convoys.
We were later told by our interpreters that after we left, the children were gathered up and the rations were taken from them by the Taliban. After that, regardless of our personal safety, we would dismount and wait until the candy was eaten by the children. Five minutes was all it took from our busy timetable to make a difference. Today as I left the clinic I felt unworthy of your time, abandoned and dismissed. I am glad that unlike most of us common folk, your day is so perfectly planned and that at 12:36 p.m. in your day you were positive you did not have five minutes for me. You are welcome for the five minutes I gave as I waited for you. Don’t worry about my pain and discomfort as I sit in Emergency waiting to have my routine prescription filled (hasn’t changed in five years). Please sir, enjoy your Thanksgiving weekend and I hope the five minutes you saved on me made a difference in your day. I know it did in mine.

Editor, The Gazette: On behalf of our entire 2014 Cops for Kids Ride team, I’d like to extend our sincere thanks to the community of Grand Forks for welcoming the team into your community. Our meals were generously hosted at the Omega Restaurant, and the team slept at the Ramada Inn thanks to generous sponsors and donors from these businesses. This year, our team raised a record $263,000 and it’s because of our local supporters that we’re able to continue assisting children in medical, physical or traumatic crisis within
southeastern British Columbia. As our need continues to grow, we’re working even harder each day to raise essential funds year-round to wipe out our wait list for funding. Donations can be made year-round by visiting our website at www.copsforkids.org. We look forward to seeing all of our friends and supporters in 2015, when we arrive into Grand Forks on Saturday, Sept. 12! Thank you for your continued support. Kind regards, Gail Harrison, president and rider, Cops for Kids Charitable Foundation
Editor, The Gazette: Re: City five-year plan (Bylaw 1996) The city has stated, “User fees will be set to recover the full cost of services except where council determines that a subsidy is in the general public interest.” With this policy in mind, the layman may be excused for being confused by the numbers in the five-year plan. In 2015, for example, the electrical department appears to make a profit, and the user fees charged to the consumer should actually be reduced by some 13 per cent to break even. This “profit” of almost $589,000 is then largely siphoned off into general revenue and the balance seems to disappear into various reserves or surpluses. This state of affairs holds for all five years of
the plan. In other words, this profit is a tax by another name. The water department, on the other hand, appears to “lose” money, and the user fees would have to be raised by about 18 per cent to break even. These apparent contradictions raise a few questions: 1. Is the five-year plan a tentative budget or is it just a document cobbled together to satisfy a bureaucratic requirement ? 2. If it is indeed a budget, why have the above inequalities not been addressed as per city policy? B. Hardwicke, Grand Forks

Profit a tax by another name
Educated vote the best Editor, The Gazette: Leaves are falling, voting is coming, and it’s time for us to either extend the terms of our elected representatives or fire them for incompetent performance. Election time is a time for truth, a time to hold our politicians accountable for their actions in the past few years. A few months ago our council voted on a tax increase. The plan was to decrease taxes on heavy industry and make up this deficit by passing a tax increase to resi-
dential taxpayers, many on fixed incomes and small business in Grand Forks, many already struggling in our depressed economy. The councillors voting for this residential tax increase were Cher Wyers and Patrick O’Doherty; all other councillors and the mayor voted against this plan. Politicians need to realize that their actions have consequences. Our next council and mayor will be elected for a four-year term, an educated vote is the best vote. David Janzen, Grand Forks
Editor, The Gazette: It appears that mayor and council aren’t aware, or don’t care, just how many people are really angry about the current water meter program. You hear it everywhere: casual conversations, emails, letters to the editor. These people are really angry that mayor and council have taken it upon themselves to force this program on us. Funny how one small group, elected to represent us, is ironically going against the majority will. In case the mayor, city council, and so-called “silent majority” didn’t notice, or have forgotten, 800-odd petition signatures against the water meter plan means a huge (landslide) majority of people don’t want it. The real majority. There are city-sponsored ads in the Gazette asking people to cooperate and book an appointment for meter installation, boasting that over 500 have been installed. Some homeowners are willingly going along with the installations; however, many people are doing the installations only because they are scared as to what will happen if they don’t comply. The mayor and council are now sponsoring ads in the paper with a threat of a $2,500 installation fee for those who don’t voluntarily accept a “free” meter. (Funny, this fee started at $600 when Neptune did its open house at the Senior’s Centre in the summertime). The program is now coming up against more and more opposition as they approach those residents who don’t want a meter installed. This program won’t work properly unless every household in Grand Forks gets a meter. Even
if the mayor and council somehow convince, cajole or coerce 1,000 or 1,500 of our 2,000-odd homeowners to put a meter in, the remaining homes won’t be done. Without these last 500-1,000 (or whatever number) homes on the program, there will be no fair way to administer water billing. There will be endless disputes, and perhaps expensive court cases due to unfair billing. As already evidenced in last week’s Gazette, some people are prepared to sue the city for enforced water meter installations due to potential health risks or other reasons. This is only the tip of the iceberg… If the mayor and city council attempt to charge the “last” 500 to 1,000 homeowners $2,500 for each water meter “involuntarily” installed, they will have disputes, lawsuits and legal battles coming out their ears. This would ultimately cost the City of Grand Forks, and the taxpayers, a fortune. And all because the mayor and city council refuse to pay attention to what the majority of homeowners say on this issue. How can elected officials just ignore the people they represent? It’s called political suicide. (For the record, Councilor Michael Wirischagin is opposed to the water meter plan. Thanks Michael!). The only way to save some of the ill-spent $1.3 million on this illconceived water meter program is to immediately call a moratorium. The current program just won’t work. And… there is a better alternative. Let democracy prevail. Jack Koochin, Grand Forks

Support for cull would continue destruction of herd
Editor, The Gazette: Please consider the following facts when you are voting on the whitetail deer cull referendum in the upcoming Grand Forks city civic election. The recent deer count in the city is another reminder of the disconnect between the deer population in the city and adjacent Area D and the deer population on their historic range. Every ardent hunter in the East Boundary is well aware
that both the mule and whitetail deer populations on their historic range have declined dramatically since the mid nineties. Today it is common for a hunter to hunt all day and not see a deer. The web page www.wildlifeheritageforever.com documents the sound bites from credible hunters that confirm the disastrous mismanagement of the deer! The B.C. Liberal government’s agenda of liberalizing
hunting seasons to attract more hunters and thus create more jobs has resulted in the dramatic decline in many wildlife populations province wide. The backbone of the government’s irresponsible agenda are population estimates that have no connection to reality and their steadfast decision to ignore the importance of access management. The minister’s message is well described on page 2 of the
current Hunting and Trapping Regulation Synopsis. The future of the province’s wildlife resource and hunting has a grim future as long as wildlife managers are forced to ignore that all ungulate populations have to square up with relentless pressure from predators, hard winters, land alienation, motorized vehicle collisions and the endless construction of new logging roads that have denied them
More serious threat is excessive water use
Editor, The Gazette: Re: Don Lee’s letter, et al, to the Gazette, Oct. 1, and subsequently. I stand corrected on the number of emissions during each 24-hour cycle and am grateful for the correction; not of willful misinformation as stated but, rather, of making an error. Total emission time of less than 45 seconds/day is a miniscule fraction of a 24-hour period, while that total emission time per day divided by the number of emissions per day means a pulse time of 7/1000 of a second. A human blink of the eye, by comparison, lasts between 0.1 and 0.4 of a second. Despite our various positions regarding water meter installation, astute readers will agree that these tiny amounts, on their own, are incapable of wreaking havoc on the environment; far more harmful are all of the other emissions being carefully avoided in this discussion.
A far more serious threat to our environment is the excessive use of water in our community. We brought it on ourselves. No one is being “punished” (Elaine Lea) and our “world view” (Tom Tripp) is woefully blinkered. Paying for what we use is the norm—not a punishment— right across the spectrum of consumer goods, while our view of the world would be broadened, perhaps, by looking upstream and asking what having a mountaintop resort at the headwaters of Kettle River means, if anything, to the health of the river? Do watering a golf course, snow making, filling swimming pools and hot tubs, washing driveways and vehicles, salting roadways, flushing toilets, accommodating thousands of people—and feeding them all—have deleterious effects on the river? What is the effect of cattle in the woods along the river?
What it the effect of clearcutting in the watershed? What are the effects of watering livestock in the river? Who are the people altering the riparian zones and what are those effects? Answers to these and other questions will aid in understanding improved water management. These are some reasons why water is not a right. And find out why we are in “Kootenay Boundary” rather than “Columbia Basin.” Ms. Butler’s submission that the installers are not qualified raises the spectre of demanding of the guy who cuts your grass proof of his diploma of agriculture; of demanding of the guy who washes your windows proof of being a certified glazier; of the person who pumps gas into your car proof of being a journeyman mechanic; of the guy who slings burgers proof of being a Cordon Bleu chef. Ad nauseum. And suggesting
that home insurances could be invalid is also a spurious move. There is an irony in exhorting readers to dump the current council in favour of those who resent metering at the time (same edition of the Gazette)—our team brought home the accolades of the UBCM for its Open for Business initiative. I would dare suggest that all of the good works this council is working on—and coupled with the efforts of, say, the Chamber of Commerce and its award, Vital Signs, BETHS, Whispers of Hope and Habitat for Humanity, Boundary District Arts Council, the food co-op and farmers’ market and all others contributing to making this a very pleasant place in which to live—is a community effort worthy of continued public support and I have no doubts as to where my votes will be cast at election time. Dave Milton, Grand Forks
the space necessary to survive long hunting seasons and the new problem—quad bikes hunters. Support for a deer cull in the city will be a political statement used to continue the destruction of the Boundary deer herd which for decades was the largest in our province. Barry Brandow, Grand Forks

Wow! It’s Our 3rd Year Anniversary! Come Celebrate with us Halloween Safety for Toddlers
Goodies. Goblins. Things that go bump in the night! Introducing your toddler to Halloween can be the start of a great tradition. But nothing can turn fun into fright faster than an accident. Here are a few things to keep in mind if you’re dressing up your little one and taking him out on the town.
Practice fire safety
Look for flame-resistant labels when buying costumes, masks, beards, and wigs.
Keep your toddler on his feet
Tots tend to trip and fall under the best of conditions, so you’ll have to take extra precautions on Halloween night. When choosing or creating a costume, make sure it’s short enough to let her navigate easily.
Stay visible
Even if you plan to keep your little one in hand on Halloween night, reflector tape is not a bad idea if you’ll be out after dark.
Beware of pointed props
Replace plastic swords and sharp-pointed princess crowns with softer versions.

Small Business Week 2014 • Oct. 19-25 Chamber celebrates Small Business Week As B.C. marks Small Business Week (Oct. 20 – 24), the Boundary Country Regional Chamber of Commerce is celebrating the vital role small businesses play in the Boundary Country.“Small businesses make up a major part of the Boundary’s business community and play a critical role in driving our local economy and creating jobs,” said James Wilson, Executive Director of the Boundary Country Regional Chamber of Commerce. “Small Business Week is a great opportunity for our community to celebrate these hardworking businesses that bring great ideas and entrepreneurial spirit to our region.” As a member of the BC Chamber of Commerce, the Boundary Country Regional Chamber of Commerce is part of active advo-
A tale of two businesses in the logging industry
cacy to support small businesses, including: • The creation of and implementation of B.C.’s Small Business Accord; • The removal of thousands of B.C. businesses from recycling costs and red tape under Multi Material BC’s packaging and printed paper program; and • Continued advocacy for lower municipal business taxes. The Chamber encourages Boundary residents to demonstrate their support for small businesses this week by making an extra effort to shop local. “Celebrate local small businesses this week by purchasing goods from local shops, eating out at a local restaurant or café, or paying for a local service such as a haircut,” Wilson said.
Small Business is the back bone of our community!
The City of Grand Forks recognizes the many contributions of small business to our community
We are very proud of the individuals and communities that we serve and grateful for the contributions they make to the economy of the Boundary Area. Congratulations to this year’s winners of the
2014 Business Excellence & Community Awards
The Boundary Region has always been heavily reliant on the resource sector. The Forestry Sector experienced severe declines in 2008 and local businesses struggled to survive. However, the past two years we have seen a resurgence in activity and Community Futures Boundary is pleased to have an active Forestry/Community Business portfolio again. It would appear that when people are raised around an industry it naturally becomes a vocation for them. This past fiscal year Community Futures Boundary assisted two unique logging companies with their business financing requirements. Both principals of the companies that are at very different stages of maturity were introduced at an early age to the logging industry and both are committed individuals and passionate about their companies. Highland Logging is a partnership between Olivia and Chris Galley a young family in living in Beaverdell, B.C. successfully operating and growing their business since 2003. Highland Logging Olivia and Chris Galley live in Beaverdell, B.C. with their two young children. They run Highland Logging as a partnership with Chris involved in all aspects of logging and Olivia managing the office. The business provides employment for themselves and also a skidder operator and a processor operator who have been with them several years and they were contracting out their log hauling to local drivers. When their credit union couldn’t help them with their business loan, they referred them to Community Futures Boundary. We worked with the Galleys to create a business plan, application and projected cash flows. A business development loan was approved to allow the Galley’s to bid on a woodlot which would have provided them with a guaranteed wood supply. Unfortunately, they were not the successful applicant on that particular bid so they reviewed their options and returned to Community Futures Boundary with a new loan proposal. Under the new proposal they were able to purchase their own logging truck giving them control over hauling and providing an additional pre-approved sum which enables them to enter bids on future woodlot sales. Chris has since obtained his Class 1 licence and is thrilled with the newly purchased used logging truck. Olivia tells us that he has had several offers on it but won’t be selling anytime soon as his own operations and family continue to flourish and grow in Beaverdell.
HIGHLAND LOGGING
W.K. LOGGING
W.K. Log Ltd. The other company is a lifelong venture W.K. Log Ltd. a mature business owned by Wayne Klein established on Texada Island in 1968 and moved to Rock Creek in 1983 and still operating today. I recently had the pleasure of touring the two woodlots that Wayne Klein owns and harvests through W.K. Log Ltd. It took approximately two hours to complete the tour and I was immediately captivated by the obvious care his company has taken to preserve the beauty of the sites while selectively logging. I was able from this tour to see areas that Wayne had logged several years ago under contract to the previous owner. Natural new growth was evident and from every direction you looked there was a sense that the woodlot was a place that was worked but not destroyed in the process. Wayne knows every aspect of the logging business having owned his business since 1968 and being taught the industry by his father. The two subcontractors a Faller/Bucker and hauler have been happily working with Wayne for over 20 years. W.K. Log Ltd approached Community Futures Boundary for his financing requirements and worked with us to complete his business plan, projected cash flows and application. He was
approved and funds advanced to purchase the woodlot. Between his existing contract work for other woodlot owners and his own woodlot Wayne was able to make a large balloon payment to his loan followed a few months later by settling the balance of outstanding debt months ahead of schedule. Wayne was pleased that there are no pre-payment penalties on Community Futures Business Development loans.

Small Business Week 2014 • Oct. 19-25
Tips offer advice to achieving small business success
In celebration of Small Business Month, taking place across Canada this October, Community Futures, B.C.’s best resource to grow your small business, is offering advice from experts across its 34 local offices throughout rural BC, including in Grand Forks and Greenwood. As a key business development organization within BC that supports entrepreneurs at all stages of their development, Community Futures’ has a track record of clients who have grown faster and lasted longer when compared to other traditional financing options. “All our rural areas are dependent on the businesses and services in our communities. Small businesses provide the jobs, the products and services we require and drive the economy of our regions. They are essential to our wellbeing. Small business should be celebrated for their dedication, hard work and commitment”, says Wendy McCulloch, general manager of Community Futures Boundary. “Being a successful small business owner is one of the most gratifying career experiences,” says Marie Gallant, executive director, Community Futures British Columbia. “The secret is not only perseverance, but also knowing who to go to for help along the way. We’re fortunate in B.C. to have fantastic resources for people looking to start or grow their own business. At Community Futures offices across the province, we offer a variety of services from business planning advice to loans. We’re not a bank, but rather a rural development organization that provides business financing to small businesses. It’s a system that works.” Community Futures offers these Top 5 Tips for small business success: 1. The best business plan remains flexible with measurable and realistic goals – One thing constant is change. Operating a business can lead to a lot of surprises, so along with a solid Plan A have a well thought out Plan
B. Many entrepreneurs know what success looks like for them; they’re just unsure of how to achieve it. We help our clients focus on realistic revenue projections, expense management, and where they want their business to be 1, 2 and 3 years later. This is imperative so business owners are making the right decisions and investments early on to reach their goals. Being undercapitalized at the beginning makes everyday a struggle and could result in missed opportunity and goals 2. Cash is king – Being profitable only on paper doesn’t mean all is ok. What really counts is what’s in the bank. Cash flow is the biggest issue for new businesses. Stay on top of your receivables (customers who owe you money); business owners need to keep a close eye on money owed to them as well as money they owe. Margins may be great, but if you are not collecting at the same rate you have to pay important expenses like payroll and taxes – it could be the end of your business 3. Keep your friends close and your competition closer – Studying your competition is one of the best ways to learn how you can make your business better. It’s an excellent way to learn from what they’re doing right, while avoiding what they might be doing wrong. Rest assured that your customers are keeping a close eye on them too 4. Don’t stop believing and don’t stop learning – Remember that old saying, “Rome wasn’t built in a day”? It’s very true and it very much applies to you and your business. It takes time and patience to get your brand/business name out there. The rate of change in today’s world is crazy, and you need to keep up somehow. As a small business owner you are the business. We tell our clients that an investment in themselves is an investment in the business. Turning to an organization like Community Futures allows you to

Employees are arycf.com. stakeholders in your business, too! Employee engagement adds to workplace culture. Hire the right fit for your organization’s culture; you can teach skills but you can’t teach attitude. Communication is critical; having team meetings and a written policy manual can be helpful, you want to make sure your employees understand what is expected of them and what you want in return. Ongoing training is often overlooked by small businesses. How your employees deal with situations, questions and special requests are things you need to make sure they understand before they get in front of clients.

Students give presentation on field trip JAKE BIANIC
Boundary Creek Times Reporter
A delegation of students was the focus of a presentation to trustees and senior administration prior to the Oct. 14’s School District 51 (Boundary) meeting in Midway. Grade 8 students Sara MacDonald, Rosemary Steele and Faith Zitko gave their presentation of their schools’ Grade 6/7 field trip, where 37 students, seven “brave” parents and one bus driver took to the road and toured Vancouver, going everywhere—even the Bug Zoo. To finance the trip $15,000 was raised over the course of two years, through fundraisers such as a spaghetti dinner, bingo nights and bake tables. Other topics discussed at the school board meeting were enrollment, the Kettle River Watershed Management Plan, and the District Parental Advisory Council (DPAC). Expected enrollment projections as of Oct. 8 were low, expecting 29 fewer students; however, student enrollment is actually up 19 students. Trustee Vicky Gee spoke about the proposed Kettle River Watershed Management Plan, an initiative that would get people to try to
monitor and conserve water usage. “This plan affects everybody in the whole area; it’s a very comprehensive plan,” Gee said. She continued, “As an institution, schools are probably big water users, and there are some philosophical issues. In the past we have talked about watering school grounds. What’s really nice about how the plan is laid out is that it’s not hard and fast, it’s saying we need to analyze this; we need to look at government and assess. It’s aiming for something, to align government and resources along with it.” Doug Lacey, SD51 director of learning, agreed with Gee’s proposal. “Questioning our consumption is definitely something we can ask ourselves. I think a lot of it that can come to the operations committee and look at the consumption; for example, there are different grass blends that would consume a tenth of the water. It’s not really that cost prohibitive an idea, I like the idea of giving a statement of the board’s direction of water consumption on their buildings.” The board agreed on a motion to pass the issue on to the Operations Committee for further review. The current DPAC executive is

getting ready to retire. The board proposed having representatives from West Boundary and BCSS who were former members of DPAC go to the meetings. It was agreed that they should find ways to keep momentum in the program going, with incentives to make it easier on the parents to attend, such as telecon-
ference, or carpooling. As Rose Zitko, board DPAC representative, put it, “Try to introduce something that has extra excitement into something that has focus.” The next school board meeting will be at 6 p.m. on Nov. 4 at the School Board Office in Grand Forks.

Library shows off The Grand Forks Public Library is boasting new tables and chairs in the adult reading area. The tables were crafted by Kettle River Woodcraft of Rock Creek and purchased by the Friends of the Library—a $2,862 donation. The chairs, 32 in total, were a generous donation from Mike Oran of Campo Marina in Osoyoos. Showing off the new furniture are (from left) William Caley (library board member and liaison to the Friends), Avi Silberstein (library director), Della Mallette (Friends president) and Jane Grey (long-time Friends member).

FOWL SUPPER – Sept. 25 –
The winner of the 50/50 draw ($140) is... Marci Redding!
Penticton resident Richard (Dick) Cannings has been chose as the NDP candidate in the 2015 federal election. Members of the NDP Riding Association for South Okanagan – West Kootenay (SO-WK) met in Grand Forks Saturday for the vote. SO-WK is a new riding, the bulk of which falls within the riding currently represented by NDP MP Alex Atamanenko. Known for his hard work, honesty, and integrity, Atamanenko—who chose to not run for a fourth term— offered his congratulations to Cannings and committed to working with him in the lead up to the election. Margaret Maximenko, who was also seeking the nomination, moved to make the vote unanimous and joined Cannings in praising the way both campaigns were run throughout the nomination. “I’m humbled to be nominated and excited to be part of the Tom Mulcair’s team, offering Canadians a real alternative to the Harper Conservatives in the 2015 election,” Cannings said.

CRAIG LINDSAY
Grand Forks Gazette
Coming soon to a theatre near you: Grand Forks! That’s right, the city has commissioned a videographer with local roots to produce a number of professional videos promoting and celebrating Grand Forks. The results are six excellent videos that the city plans to use to attract out of town businesses, tourists and potential newcomers. Nik Green, a former Grand Forks resident who still has roots here, was commissioned by the city to make the videos which would incorporate the new brand and tell the story of the area. The idea for the videos came from the Economic Development Advisory Committee, which made a recommendation to city council in the fall of 2013. “Shooting and producing the Grand Forks videos was a passion project that saw my team and I shoot various footage of the area over the course of 10 months,” said Green in a press release. “The end result is six videos that are intended for different applications within the city’s branding and marketing efforts. It’s very important for people to share them on Facebook, Twitter and the like for outsiders to see.” Green moved to Grand Forks when he was 11 and lived here until he was 27 when he moved to Vancouver to attend film school. He is a former reporter for the Gazette and also opened up Jogas Espresso Café. His interest in media began with taking photographs around Grand Forks. “I think it’s a natural transition from photography,” Green said in an interview with the Gazette. “Bill Wilby, then of Contact Photo, got me started with my first camera and I went around and photographed this town to the point of absurdity. I had a shot of every building and every tree. I kind of went from there into amateur videography. I went from there to Vancouver Film School where I learned cinematography prop-
erly and production.” Through his company, Global Authority Media, he has been able to film commercials, which he really enjoys. “I like the concept of having to sell a product using visuals,” said Green. “It’s different every time. For example, this week we’ve shot for a major car brand, we’ve shot for the City of Grand Forks, we’ve shot for Community Futures. We just had a call from Google to go down to San Diego and shoot for them.” Green first learned about the city project contract through the grapevine and knew he had to get involved. “I knew the budget wouldn’t be what we’re used to with Ikea or BMW but it was something I had to do,” he said. “I would’ve felt silly if I watched someone else do it. I thought it had to be done right.” When he first began the project, Green sat down with several city staff members and councillors to go through what they wanted. “I wanted to make sure I knew what they were focusing on these days just to be sure I still had my finger of the pulse of the community,” said Green. “Obviously, there’s certain things that are a given, such as the outdoor living. We wanted to really talk about the lifestyle aspect.” Green said he really enjoyed shooting the project and found that everyone who helped out were tremendously helpful. Of the shots he took, the time lapse photography was one of his fa-
vourites. “It’s incredibly peaceful to shoot a time lapse,” he said. “You’re sitting there forever to make a four second shot in the final edit. You really get a chance to reflect on everything.” Another popular piece on the videos was a funny one where Nik asks local residents to describe, and spell, borscht with mixed results. “We tricked people,” Green admitted. “People thought we were just going to use the good components but we used their mess ups where they were trying to figure out what to say. It worked out well. We got genuine (touching) moments but maybe people don’t know as much as they thought. I think it was pretty funny.” Mayor Brian Taylor said the videos are very well done and encapsulate the city perfectly. “The whole process took just over one year in order to capture the four seasons that we experience here in Grand Forks,” he said in the press release. “It’s been a major accomplishment for the community and means that we can take authentic footage of the area on the road to try and spark interest in our community. What we are really looking for is growth of the community both from an economic and a social perspective. We really think these videos, once people get a glimpse of them, are going to help us accomplish this.” The six videos can be viewed at the city website at www. grandforks.ca.

Film a ‘wonderfully woven tapestry’
Roger Ebert was the first journalist to win a Pulitzer Prize for criticism, a pondering point for the annoying horde of much lesser critics. Employing Ebert’s best-selling memoir of the same name as a template, Steve James (Hoop Dreams) directed the film that recounts the inspiring and entertaining life of the film critic and social commentator who once gave the United States two thumbs down for the conflict in Vietnam. Life Itself is personal, funny, painful and transcendent. Though the hospital scenes may be difficult to watch, they are brightened by the wounded Ebert’s phenomenal determination and the inspiring, touch-
ing relationship with his wife Chaz. Ebert valiantly stood firm against the cancer to which he eventually succumbed but not before putting a new face on the disease, literally and figuratively, while continuing to be a cultural force. This film does not pull its punches as it unsentimentally recounts Ebert’s early years as a self-loathing alcoholic, his memorable run with Gene Siskel, the annoying brother he never had, and with whom he sculpted some fine TV debates on the virtues or failings of a variety of movies, some of which achieved atmospheric proportions as a result, ie. Hoop Dreams. As one friend put it, “Siskel was a rogue planet in Roger’s solar system.” What may well shine through is Ebert’s compulsion to control people and their opinions, revealed in hilariously

Grand Forks Gazette
Grand Forks Secondary held a junior girls volleyball playday on Wednesday, Oct. 15 at the school. Grand Forks Secondary (GFSS) had two teams playing as did Stanley Humphries (Castle-
gar). Also playing was Boundary Central (Midway). GFSS team captain Riley Steinbach said the team played well over the course of four games and have shown steady improvement since the beginning of the season. “We really played as a team,” she said. “We showed some
good technique on the court and both teams won three out of four games.” Steinbach said the team has been working on calling for the ball more and bumping, setting and spiking on each play. “We need to work on that more but today it got better,” she said.

Grand Forks Secondary School (GFSS) hosted a junior boys soccer play-day on Wednesday, Oct. 15. Joining GFSS in action were Nakusp, Boundary Central (BCSS) and Prince Charles from Creston. GFSS lost all three games but showed promise with a young team. The Wolves lost to BCSS 2-0, Creston 5-0 and Nakusp 3-0. “For a predominantly Grade 8 team playing older, stronger teams, we performed with great promise,” said coach Mike Phelan. “Our scores do not necessarily reflect that however!” The junior Wolves travel to J.L. Crowe in Trail on Oct. 22 for a play-day with the host school, BCSS and Creston.

Playtime for adults with GFREC OK to play It is proven scientifically that play is essential for childhood development. But did you know that it is crucial for adults to play on a regular basis? Play time for adults is an opportunity to release stress, improve brain function, stimulate the mind and boost creativity. Play keeps you feeling young and energetic and is a significant avenue for improving relationships and connecting with others. It doesn’t matter the activity; however, play should include at least one other person and away from the sensory-overload of electronic gadgets in order to reap the greatest benefits. Grand Forks Recreation is all about play. In fact we insist “It’s OK to Play @ GFREC.” There are a variety of adult recreation programs taking place within our community on a daily basis. All activities are drop-in and everyone is welcome. Volleyball, badminton under way Monday and Wednesday nights from 8:30 to 10 p.m. at the GFSS gym, adults can bump and spike the ball across the net to fellow volleyball enthusiasts.

Use influence of vote
Influence and persuasion, the air is alive with promises, perspectives and proposals. It is municipal election time in British Columbia. Through your vote, you have influence to choose the people who will influence, through their decisions, the course Martin Fromme Executive Elder, of the community. Something is different Evangel Chapel this time. The people who are placed in office will be there for FOUR years. That is a significant amount of time in the history of a community. How important it is to examine the depth of the person for whom you place the X. You don’t want to look at the veneer, at the outward appearance; you want to look at the heart, at the depth of character, at the persons’ track record and values. For four years these attributes of the person are going to be working either for or against the sustainability, development, peace and good order of your community. When King Darius was managing his great Empire of the Medes, he had various levels of managers over the regions and sub regions. In the captives from Jerusalem, he found one, Daniel, who is described this way: “Then this Daniel began distinguishing himself among the commissioners and satraps because he possessed an extraordinary spirit, and the king planned to appoint him over the entire kingdom.” (Daniel 6:3) So, what are some of the things to consider? Is the person self-indulgent or self-sacrificing? Does the person know how to give into the community, or is the person primarily interested in what he/she can get from the community. Is the person truly concerned about the interests of others? What kind of fruit is in their lives? How do they relate to the individuals and community groups for whom they will be working? Talk is cheap; commitment is expensive. Big challenges are best met by people who are accustomed to small successes. The principles of decision making and the commitment to success is an on-going process like the growth of a tree—ring by ring, experience by experience. The wood at the heart of the tree is a good indication of how strong the tree is and how long it will be around. Learners can learn. In a changing economic and social environment, people who are accustomed to learning, to doing research, to synthesizing information from a variety of sources, are going to be the most successful in bringing forth decisions and policies that will help the community through unfamiliar or unforeseen circumstances.

Stan Allen
Thank You To all attending Ben’s Celebration of Life. Thank you for sharing your support, your stories, and your food with us. Thank you also for recognizing his love for life, humankind, nature, and especially his family, particularly his daughter Paris Fawn. We all miss him but respect his choice and forever admire his tenacity at doing his best with his short time. To the Zorn clan, you did him proud. Terry Clark and family, for all the work and thinking of things needing doing when we couldn’t think. To the LaBounty’s, Newman’s, Cameron and Merna Boltz who held the pieces together – still Kim, Ed and Annalise.
Love, Hastings Family

Effie Rita Jones (nee Antal) Aug. 10, 1937Sept. 30, 2014
It is with our deepest sadness that we announce the passing of our dear Mom and Grandma. At 77, Effie went quietly into the night with family by her side and her husband Ken to greet her at the pearly gates. Effie was born the oldest child of Alex and Sophie Antal in Saskatoon, Sask. where she finished school, married Larry Young, and had two precious children, Jack and Valerie. Shortly thereafter they divorced. In 1970, Effie and Ken Jones moved to Grand Forks with 7 rug rats in tow. Ken and Effie married in 1982. Effie was a little Hungarian woman in Red (her favorite color). She was a fabulous cook who could whip up an amazing meal with a little meat, a lot of imagination and a whole lot of faith. A devout Jehovah’s Witness, Effie attended church and volunteered where she was needed. She kept the books for the family business, cooked at the GF Hotel and gave her time to Girl Guides. Effie loved to go camping, fishing and hunting with family and friends where her cooking skills were always put to use over the fire. When she wasn’t finding a way to stretch a pound of meat into a delicious feast, she could be found beating someone at “Scrabble” or enjoying Bingo. She loved her cats (Squeakers and Rudy) and had a fixation for elephants (350 collected at last count). Effie was predeceased by her husband Ken Jones by 6 months. She leaves her 7 children, 8 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren to keep her memory alive. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
