‘We stand up for Canada’ BY LANA MICHELIN ADVOCATE STAFF Sadness, outrage and even defiance were expressed as veteran soldiers gathered with other Central Albertans at Red Deer’s Cenotaph Saturday, in memory of the two Canadian soldiers killed on home soil. “We stand up for Canada” by remembering the sacrifices of Corp. Nathan Cirillo and Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent, said Bobbi McCoy, national vice-president of Alberta and Northwest Territories Command of the Royal Canadian Legion. She was among 25 local vets and civilians who stood soberly side-byside as bag pipes played to mark two minutes of silence in memory of the murdered soldiers at 10 a.m. These tragedies have united Canadians, and “it’s very important we stick together now. To be killed on home soil is never acceptable,” added McCoy. Cirillo, 24, was gunned down Wednesday by an Canadian-born Islamic extremist while standing guard at the National War Memorial in Ottawa, while Vincent, 53, was purposely struck and killed last Monday by a car driven by a Muslim convert in Quebec. Indignation about those acts was expressed at the memorial gathering — as well as pride in the role of Canadian soldiers. Vince Martin, a former Canadian Forces serviceman who, like Cirillo,

hails from Hamilton, Ont., said he has “strong feelings” about extremists threatening Canadian freedoms. “I think that was brought home this week to a lot of other Canadians,” he said. “I think we need to be prepared and vigilant.”

Larry Quintilio looks over some of his many family photos he has in his home. Quintilio’s wife June died in June of this year after suffering with Alzheimer’s disease.

Red Deer man pushing for more Alzheimer’s support BY LANA MICHELIN ADVOCATE STAFF More affordable and appropriate care options are needed for the growing number of younger people with Alzheimer disease, says a Red Deer man, whose wife got sick at age 55. Larry Quintilio’s whole world was up-ended when his formerly active and efficient spouse, June, began drifting into confusion. First he had to move his work home to become a caregiver to her. But after just a year, his wife’s deteriorating condition required round-the-clock vigilance, so he sold his electrical contracting business and retired early. It was the start of a long, painful and frustrating journey that ended on June 3, when June died at age 68, after suffering from Alzheimer’s for more than 13 years. Before losing her mental faculties, she had raised two children, hiked the West Coast Trail, and had

been a highly organized perfectionist. The genial June had helped co-ordinate dozens of school tours during the 1986 Canada Olympics in Calgary and later worked as an education co-ordinator at Red Deer hospital, plotting nurse training and other schedules. The first sign of something wrong came in 2001, when June began losing track of whether she had paid household bills. Quintilio knew this wasn’t normal behaviour for his spouse. But it took several more years to get a medical diagnosis because his wife didn’t want to accept what was happening and refused to see a doctor. One of the biggest difficulties, as June’s disease progressed, was she never lost confidence in her own abilities, said Quintilio. This meant her exasperation would mount as various obstacles — such as the supposedly screwed up utility bills — were thrown into her path.

SOLDIERS: Displayed their medals Although off-duty Canadian soldiers were ordered not to wear their uniforms as a precaution after the killings, veterans proudly displayed their medals and insignia at the Red Deer gathering. “I think it’s always important to wear it, and even more so now,” said Martin. Retired Canadian Forces Sgt. Bob Dale, who served in Bosnia, Croatia and Germany, was born in Ottawa, said he’s very upset by this week’s deaths, saying Canadians don’t expect their soldiers to be killed at home during peacetime. But what happened to Cirillo and Vincent resulted in an outpouring of Canadian pride in their soldiers. Dale, who stood vigil at the Cenotaph a couple of evenings this week, said people have been stopping to shake his hand and bring him hot chocolate. “One woman hugged me and she was crying, she was that emotionally upset.” Soldiers have often felt isolated while serving their country and this kind of public endorsement shows their contributions are valued, Dale added. Support for soldiers can be seen around Central Alberta, where people have been raising Maple Leaf flags — including about 30 on the south side of Hwy 11 towards Sylvan Lake. A waving flag as well as a burst of spectator applause also greeted a regiment of reservist soldiers who marched to Red Deer City Hall at noon on Saturday. The symbolic “Freedom of the City” parade to honour military units that have provided service to the community was several months in the making, but suddenly took on more poignant significance, in light of the killings of two Canadian soldiers. “This city is indeed free,” said Mayor Tara Veer, due to the men and women who have defended Canada in the past and present. On behalf of the citizens of Red Deer, she thanked the reservists in the 41 Signal Regiment for their efforts after conducting a ceremonial inspection of the troops. “The tragic events of the past week are evidence that our freedoms are paved with sacrifice,” Veer added. This cold fact gave former mayor Morris Flewwelling another perspective on public service. Flewwelling, who watched the parade, said “This is an aspect we don’t often think of — people risking their lives.” City resident Marissa Hutchison came to honour the soldiers at the Cenotaph because she has a greatgrandfather who fought in the First World War and two great uncles who were in the Second World War. Having just given birth to a baby boy, she said she hopes her son won’t have to go to war someday. lmichelin@reddeeradvocate.com

MOM: Humbled She wants her children to understand that while there is poverty in the Dominican, there’s also poverty in Canada. So they head to the Hope Mission regularly, and hand out things like sandwiches, hot chocolate and toiletries. The Mom of the Year Award comes with $10,000 to go to a cause Marlene chooses, and $10,000 for herself. “I’m humbled by the fact that I’ve won this award, because there are many people out there who deserve it. I just happen to be the one who was

nominated and due to my circumstances and things that have gone on in our life in the last five years or so, it kind of stands out, and I think that’s why I was chosen. It’s an honour and I’m excited about it, it’s just a little overwhelming.” She has chosen Hope for the Nations, the Canadian connection to Dominican Feed The Kids, as the group to receive the $10,000. In the past, Marlene would travel to the Dominican Republic several times a year, bringing along friends and other groups to help out. “But since Damian’s accident in January, I haven’t gone back this year. I don’t expect to until maybe February or March of next year, when I feel OK to go back. The last time I was ever in the Dominican was with Damian for his birthday last October. We spent his 19th birthday there working in the villages. “I have a hard time going back right now. I will, but just not yet. “We call ourselves humanitarians because that’s what we are. We aren’t connected to a church. So when we go on humanitarian trips, we go work in the villages. The last trip I took there was 11 of us.” Husband Denny is her support group in Canada. “He backs me 100 per cent with what I do.” So what will she do with the $10,000 she receives for herself? January, she admits, will be a very hard month because it will be one year since Damian’s death. So a trip to Mexico is planned with a group of friends. Marlene’s holidays are always working ones. This one won’t be. What’s left from the award will “pay our bills and live life.” “I think in our family we’ve come to the conclusion that the best that we can do is try to honour Damian by being who we were before he passed away, by being happy, by doing things that we know he would be proud of us for. “I hope that we are doing the right thing. I think we are.” To see video and more about Marlene and the award, go to www.momoftheyear.ca. barr@reddeeradvocate.com

SUPPORT: Lost their sense of logic “We are used to dealing with people who are rational and logical,” he added, but people suffering from Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia have lost their sense of logic. Although June was on two drugs to slow the progress of the disease, her mental condition gradually worsened. As she lost touch with reality, she would point to external sources for her confusion. Quintilio recalled his wife blaming his decision to prevent her from her driving for all the problems she was experiencing. She would get so agitated in the evenings she couldn’t rest. “We would have to go for walks at three in the morning. I would tell her ‘I’m taking a billy club and bear spray with me,’ because she worried somebody would (attack) us, and she felt safe with me,” recalled the local man, who gets emotional thinking of June’s last years. “We would walk through the night. After 20 minutes in the fresh air, I would get her home and she could fall asleep.” When the time came for Quintilio to investigate long-term care facilities for June, he found very few affordable or appropriate options. Private facilities were expensive (up to $6,000 a month), while public facilities (in the $1,500$2,000 range) were usually geared for the very old. Wards were often not locked, so people with dementia could

Because his wife’s strong personality made her hard to handle, she finally got a spot at Centennial Hospital in Ponoka. Quintilio had to travel an hour round-trip every day to see her, but he praised hospital staff for the excellent care his wife received during her last 3 ½ years in this secure facility. June kept busy with recreational options, such as woodworking. But many other people with Alzheimer’s won’t get a spot in Centennial Hospital, he said, since the facility is not meant for long-term care patients. Quintilio knows a 48-year-old local woman with children at home who must now also care for a husband with Alzheimer disease. She lost an income since her spouse can no longer work, and unlike a widow, does not get insurance money to

This ruins you financially, and there is no government provision.” Studies have shown dementia will grow to “epidemic” proportions. In 20 years, the number of people with the condition is expected to at least double from the 500,000 Canadians who currently have dementia. The Early Onset Alberta group met at Red Deer’s Sheraton Hotel on Saturday to discuss how to spread awareness of the need for more long-term care options and community services. Quintilio urges area residents to write to their MLAs asking for more Alzheimer support. He also encourages anyone affected by the disease to contact the Alberta Alzheimer Society and local support groups to learn to cope. lmichelin@reddeeradvocate.com

ALBERTA EDMONTON — Premier Jim Prentice is looking to gain a seat in Alberta’s legislature Monday in one of four byelections, but he rejects any suggestion that the votes are a referendum on his government. “These are four individual byelections,” Prentice told a Calgary radio station on Friday. “You run hard on the basis that you’re four votes behind, which is why I’ve knocked on 6,000 doors myself over the course of the last period of time. “I trust the judgment of the citizens in those ridings to make the choice.” The vote caps a campaign of angry ads, pumpkins, no-shows, sod turnings and debates over the true meaning of political manners. Prentice, who is running in Calgary-Foothills, called the byelections four weeks ago. The others are in Calgary-West, Calgary-Elbow and EdmontonWhitemud. The legislature is set to resume sitting Nov. 17. All four have been strongly contested by opposition parties. The Opposition Wildrose took to running attack ads on TV and radio. They reminded voters of failed Tory promises to fix health care and build schools, while spending lavishly on travel and office perks under former premier Alison Redford. “Send the PCs a message. It’s time to put the service back in public service,” Wildrose Leader Danielle Smith said in one radio ad. Prentice and his running mates also came under fire for not attending many candidate debates. Prentice did not participate in any debates in Calgary-Foothills, which prompted rivals to put a pumpkin in his place on stage. That led to the nickname “Pumpkin Premier.” NDP member Brian Mason, in his farewell speech as party leader last weekend, used the Halloween gourd to craft a rallying cry, telling Albertans: “Don’t elect four more pumpkins!” The PCs said they felt the best way to connect with voters was by knocking on doors. Prentice criticized the Wildrose party for running the attack ads against him. He said political “courtesies” traditionally give a party leader a break in byelections. The opposition, in turn, accused Prentice of being equally discourteous by running a passive-aggressive campaign for his candidates using taxpayer money. In recent weeks, Prentice has announced millions of dollars for hundreds of new care beds to alleviate hospital bottlenecks and for dozens of new schools. Education Minister Gordon Dirks and Health Minister Stephen Mandel are both running in byelections. On Friday, Dirks posed for photographers as he helped turn the sod on three new schools in Calgary. Opposition members cried foul, but Prentice said the ceremony was an apolitical site blessing organized by Calgary’s Catholic School District. The byelection outcomes don’t have the potential to change the balance of power. The Tories have 57 seats in the 87-seat legislature. All the seats up for grabs were won by the Tories in the 2012 election, including Redford’s riding of Calgary-Elbow. Alberta Party Leader Greg Clark, a candidate in that riding, said many voters are telling him it’s time for change. “How many second chances does the PC party want?” said Clark in an interview. “What I’m hearing from people at the doors is very clearly that after 43 years (in government), the PC party cannot represent change.” Donna Wilson, the Liberal candidate in Edmonton-Whitemud, said voters need to remember the past if they want to shape the future. “It’s not just our health-care system that is in deep trouble,” said Wilson. “(It’s also) our schools, post-secondary (institutions), our environment (and) our job creation. “This is a government that has failed in every way.”

Inaugural Flags of Remembrance pays tribute to those killed in service to Canada BY BRENDA KOSSOWAN ADVOCATE STAFF SYLVAN LAKE - A biting wind seems somewhat fitting as 116 Canadian flags flap and strain at their moorings in remembrance of Canadians who have fallen in service to their country over the past 100 years. At noon on Saturday, the 116th flag was raised to commemorate 116,000 Canadian men and women killed on duty since the opening shot was fired in the First World War. The last flag to be raised will bear a plaque memorializing the most recent losses: reservists Patrice Vincent and Nathan Cirillo, killed last week on home soil. Vincent died in a targeted hit and run in St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Que. on Monday. Cirillo was shot at close range while standing guard at the National War Memorial in Ottawa on Wednesday. The inaugural edition of Flags of Remembrance is the brainchild of Veterans Voices of Canada founder Allan Cameron and supporter Deryn Blondheim. In a speech during the flag raising at noon on Saturday, Cameron said he and Blondheim were talking over a coffee earlier this year about ways to raise money for Veterans Voices of Canada. Cameron created the non-profit organization to create video interviews with combat veterans, telling their own stories in their own words. Cameron has been criss-crossing the country, focusing on Second World War vets so he can catch as many as possible before their time runs out. The videos are provided free of charge to vets and their families as well as to schools and libraries, so Veterans Voices of Canada has had to find other means to raise money to keep the project going. The idea came to fruition when the Blue Grass Sod Farm offered its fenceline and access to one of its fields, located alongside Hwy 11, about 1.5 miles east of Sylvan Lake. Cameron felt people would be impressed at the sight of a long row of Canadian flags, especially knowing that each flag was raised in tribute to 1,000 people killed on duty. As of Saturday afternoon, Veterans Voices of Canada had found sponsors for roughly half of the flags, offered with a minimum donation of $200 each. He has invited people to sponsor a flag in tribute to an individual veteran of

Flags and plaques will be returned to their sponsors on the Saturday after Remembrance Day, when the display will be dismantled. Even before this project started to come together, Cameron was dreaming of bigger things. He hopes to erect similar displays across Canada in the near future - at least one in every province and territory.

RCMP in Kelowna, B.C., have arrested a man in connection with threats made against a WestJet flight that had just arrived from Edmonton and was heading to Calgary. Kelowna airport spokeswoman Jenelle Hynes says a man phoned the airport with a threat specifically directed toward the flight to Calgary. She would not provide details about the threat and says police took the man into custody at the airport. Hynes says the plane was parked away from the terminal and passengers who’d arrived from Edmonton were transported to the main building on a bus. She says they waited nearly two hours to retrieve their luggage. RCMP did not immediately return calls seeking information about the arrest.

Clean-tech will lead way What’s the fastest-growing sector in Canada’s economy? Given what you hear from politicians and the media, you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s the resource industry, especially extraction and export of fossil fuels like oilsands bitumen and liquefied natural gas. But we’re no longer just “hewers of wood and drawDAVID ers of water” SUZUKI — or drillers of oil, frackers of gas and miners of coal. Although extraction, use and export of natural resources are economically important and will remain so for some time, we’re starting to diversify. According to Ottawa-based consultants Analytica Advisors, clean technology, or clean-tech, is the country’s fastestgrowing industry. The firm’s 2014 Canadian Clean Technology Report, found direct employment by clean-tech companies rose six per cent from 2011 to 2012, from 38,800 people to 41,000, with revenues

SCIENCE

increasing nine per cent to $11.3 billion. According to Industry Canada, mining and oil and gas sector revenues grew just 0.3 per cent in the same period, manufacturing 1.9 per cent and the construction industry 3.9 per cent. At the current growth rate, Analytica estimates Canada’s clean-tech industry will be worth $28 billion by 2022. But with the global market expected to triple to $2.5 trillion over the next six years, Canada hasn’t come close to reaching its potential. It’s our choice to seize the opportunity. With just two per cent of the global market (matching our share of population), we could have a $50 billion clean-tech industry by 2020 — double the size of today’s aerospace industry. Clean-tech also outshines other sectors on research and development investment, with $1 billion invested in 2012 and $5 billion from 2008 to 2012. That’s more than the combined research and development investments of natural resource industries (oil and gas extraction, mining, agriculture, forestry and fishing), and only $200 million less than the aerospace sector. “If you look at the sum of the investments and revenues of all these companies, we have a significant industry today,” Analytica president Céline Bak told the Hill Times. “Given the growth in investments today, it will continue

to be significant and can grow into an industry comparable in size to other significant industries, like aerospace for example.” The clean-tech sector is broad. “These companies are working on problems that we all care about, like how to use the constant temperature from the ground under our offices buildings for heating and cooling, and how to replace expensive and polluting diesel power in our remote communities with clean affordable energy, or transforming greenhouse gases into stronger concrete to build greener buildings,” Bak said in a Vancouver Sun article. Clean-tech comprises about 700 companies in 10 sectors across Canada, including renewable energy, water treatment, green building and development of environmentally friendly consumer products. Many experts argue that putting a price on carbon, through carbon taxes or cap-and-trade, is a good way to stimulate clean-tech, by targeting greenhouse gas emitters and encouraging technologies and measures aimed at energy conservation and renewables. But we could lose out if we take the industry for granted — especially because 74 per cent of clean-tech companies here sell products and services outside Canada, with export revenues of about $5.8 billion in 2012 and 42 per

cent going to markets other than the U.S. “High-performing companies are often bought by international players that take the intellectual property, manufacturing and jobs to other countries,” Bak cautioned, adding, “The world already looks to Canada for our clean technology solutions. Isn’t it time that we did too?” And, while the federal government has strategies to track and promote the fossil fuel and aerospace industries, it has yet to do this for clean-tech. Diversity in nature is important — ensuring ecosystems remain resilient in the face of threats. So, too, for the economy. It’s folly to rely too heavily on extracting and selling finite resources, especially those that cause pollution and contribute to climate change and other threats to the environment and human health and survival. Canada’s economic growth potential through clean energy is huge, but it needs to be given the same priority government gives other industries. Clean-tech may not be the answer to all our problems, but it’s a sector that offers a lot of promise for our economy and environment.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

When did Canada depart from its peacekeeping role to active warfare? Traditionally, at least for several decades, Canada was known around the world for its peacekeeping role. On all of our travels, especially to Europe, we heard very positive comments about Canada being a peacekeeper in the world. This changed when Canada had an active combat role in Afghanistan for 11 years. A war that cost the lives of more than 150 young Canadians, many more severely injured and almost all soldiers returning with PTSD that effects not only them, but their children, wives and parents, not to mention the tremendous cost the Canadian taxpayer to the tune of $ 45,000 a day times 11 years. That is just for the war effort, not the cost of treating returning soldiers, some for life. What exactly was accomplished in Afghanistan? Was it worth that kind of human and financial cost? Now we are in war again, this time in Iraq, active combat, fighter jets, plus boots on the ground? Why could we not stick to a peacekeeping mission and humanitarian aid? Last week, the first Canadians died on Canadian soil perhaps in response to Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s decision to actively participate in another war. Canadian secret service officials and RCMP said the first one likely won’t be the only one. They don’t have the finances to monitor all ISIL-influenced young men in Canada! Are we willing to risk these kinds of attacks on Canadian soil? Are we ready to sacrifice very young Canadian lives again? Are we willing to pay tens of thousands daily to another long drawn-out war? In a recent letter, Get behind our war effort, the author writes that he sensed a lack of patriotism. Really, is it patriotic to go to war against a country that has not attacked Canada? This is not political, it is staying out of foreign country wars and most of all staying with our peacekeeping mission and humanitarian aid! The cost of burden of this war is not on ‘government coffers,’ it is taxpayers’ money. Do what we did in the Second World War, sell government stamps and war bonds? What? I and apparently millions of Canadians would not buy any as I am not for involving Canada in another war. I am totally behind NDP Leader Thomas Mulcair, who is right that this is not a UN-sanctioned operation. The letter writer suggests we should go to war singing. Do you also feel like singing when you see the coffins coming back on Canadian soil? In the 1980s when terrorism started, strategies were developed to deal with it in the best way. The best way was identified as to not being provoked by the terrorists, to not rush into action and it will end. But now that they have a international coalition to fight, it won’t. So, Canada, get ready for another long, drawn-out war effort with huge human loss, including Canadians, and a tremendous financial cost in a very fragile global economy. Ilse Quick Lacombe

pendence referendum, we find that is was, in fact, a rebellion against the widespread impoverishment caused by the present economic system. It is no coincidence that areas like the biggest city, Glasgow, in which the majority voted Yes to independence, were mainly working-class in composition. They were places that have suffered the most deprivation since the years of Thatcherite de-industrialization and are in desperate need of change. London-based Advocate columnist Gwynne Dyer writes on Sept. 16: “The real grievance that fuels Scotland’s independence movement is the fact that Britain keeps electing governments that are either explicitly Conservative or (like Tony Blair’s three terms in office) conservative in all but name. They take Britain into stupid foreign wars and they impose austerity on ordinary British people while looking after the rich.” Despite the immense relief experienced by the British establishment at the No vote, this is not the end of their problems. On the contrary, it is merely the beginning. Millions of people from 16-year-old first-time voters to workers who had been alienated for years by the lack of a real alternative turned out in record numbers to vote. This demonstrates to leaders of the labour movement, in Canada as well as in Britain, that the majority, the ordinary working people will vote in large numbers when there is something to vote for, something that inspires hope for the future. There has been a political awakening in Scotland with discussions in pubs, in shops, at bus stops and on street corners. This gigantic passionate debate signals the opening of a new historic chapter for a people who are now fueled by the knowledge that they have the ability to change society.

The fallout from this referendum will not be limited to Scotland because the same deteriorating conditions for working people exist not only in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and also increasingly across the ocean in Canada. Canadians have been watching the debate with great interest while making comparisons between their own falling living standards and having the same type of inept politicians. Austerity is badly affecting the lives of workers right across Canada and in particular east of the Prairies, where, despite the lowering of corporate tax rates, traditional heavy industries are being run down by lack of investment. The lowering of corporate taxes was paid for by reducing things such as transfer payments to the provinces for health care and once again the working class loses out. The affect that cuts have on the lives of working people is demonstrated by the storming of Montreal City Hall on Aug. 18. This action was provoked by a serious threat to cut the hard-earned pensions of the police, firefighters, transit and other municipal workers. Events of this nature are an indication of the pressures that already exist in our society. When the world economy was booming, only just over 80 per cent of the existing industrial capacity was being used and now during the slump it is less than 70 per cent. The political leadership of the labour movement must offer new horizons in the form of a genuine socialist alternative, a planned economy that will liberate the existing productive capacity and transform our society.

Ottawa shooting driven by B.C. ceremony marks ideological motives: RCMP hanging of First Nations chiefs 150 years ago MOTHER SAYS HER SON WAS AT ODDS WITH THE WORLD

BY THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA — The killing of a Canadian soldier in Ottawa and subsequent gunfight on Parliament Hill was driven by “ideological and political motives,” RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson said Sunday. A statement from Paulson said the man responsible — Michael Zehaf Bibeau — made a video recording of himself just prior to last Wednesday’s attack. “The RCMP has identified persuasive evidence that Michael Zehaf Bibeau’s attack was driven by ideological and political motives,” Paulson’s statement said. “The RCMP is conducting a detailed analysis of the video for evidence and intelligence.” The statement, released during the Sunday dinner hour, said the video could not be immediately made public. In their statement, the RCMP said they are still looking into the origins of the “old and uncommon” gun Zehaf Bibeau used, but believe he obtained a knife from his aunt’s property near Mont-Tremblant, Que., where he had buried it previously. The RCMP say they have traced Zehaf Bibeau’s savings to money he had earned while working in Alberta’s oil patch. And they say they are still investigating contact Zehaf Bibeau had with other individuals in the days before the attack, to determine whether he had any help. Zehaf Bibeau gunned down Cpl. Nathan Cirillo as he stood guard at the National War Memorial. He then went to the Parliament Buildings where he died in a hail of bullets after a gunfight with RCMP and House of Commons security. Paulson’s statement was issued hours after a published report in which Zehaf Bibeau’s mother said her son acted in despair and expressed doubt he was radicalized. In a letter published by Postmedia News, Susan Bibeau painted a picture of her son as an “unhappy person at odds with the world” and mentally unbalanced in his final days. Bibeau writes Michael told her he wanted to go to Saudi Arabia where he could

‘THE RCMP HAS IDENTIFIED PERSUASIVE EVIDENCE THAT MICHAEL ZEHAF BIBEAU’S ATTACK WAS DRIVEN BY IDEOLOGICAL AND POLITICAL MOTIVES.’ — RCMP STATEMENT

study the Qu’ran and thought he would be happier in an Islamic country. Bibeau says Michael was angered that federal officials had not granted him a passport and felt trapped. “He felt cornered, unable to stay in the life he was in, unable to move on to the next one he wanted to go to,” writes Bibeau in the letter to Postmedia, adding she may never understand what drove her son to commit such acts. She also disputes a suggestion from the RCMP last week that Zehaf Bibeau wanted a passport so he could go fight in Syria’s civil war. Bibeau writes she doesn’t believe Michael was part of an organization or acted “on behalf of some grand ideology or for a political motive.” She said she believes “he acted in despair.” Last week Prime Minister Stephen Harper referred to Zehaf Bibeau’s actions were a terrorist attack and his office didn’t change its tune Sunday. “This was a terrorist attack. He attacked two Canadian institutions - the soldiers standing guard at the War Memorial, and Parliament - had espoused extremist ideology, was, as the police have indicated, radicalized,” said Jason MacDonald, a spokesman for Harper told The Canadian Press in an email. Paulson says the RCMP have also asked an outside police force to review the Mounties’ handling of the gunfight in the halls of Parliament. “Consistent with the principles of independent investigation where police shootings or use of force result in serious injury or death, the RCMP has asked the Ontario Provincial Police to take complete conduct of the investigation of the shooting of Zehaf Bibeau inside Parliament.”

QUESNEL, B.C. — On a grey, bonechilling day commemorating the hanging of a group of aboriginal chiefs in British Columbia 150 years ago, pounding drums and singing voices heralded new beginnings and brighter times. About 200 people gathered in a tiny grass field overlooking the Fraser River in Quesnel to honour five Tsilhqot’in Nation chiefs who were hanged at that spot on Oct. 26, 1864. A sixth chief was hanged the following year in New Westminster, near Vancouver. The chiefs were killed during a bloody dispute known as the Chilcotin War. Three days before Sunday’s ceremony, B.C.’s premier apologized for the hangings and exonerated the six men a century and a half after their deaths. “These warriors, when their lives were taken, it gave our nation an identity,” Tsilhqot’in Chief Joe Alphonse told Sunday’s gathering. “It’s our version of Remembrance Day today. How we look at the province of British Columbia is affected by these guys. It’s led us to here.” A small plaque that was placed in the middle of the field 15 years ago serves as the only official marker of where the five chiefs were hanged and buried. The chiefs’ execution is part of a long history of conflict between the Tsilhqot’in and the government. The most recent chapter saw the Tsilhqot’in fight a long-running legal battle that ended earlier this year with a landmark decision from the Supreme

Court of Canada, which for the first time awarded the band title to their territory. The six chiefs were hanged after the colonial government in B.C. approved a toll road from Bute Inlet on the coast to Barkerville in the Cariboo gold fields. But the Tsilhqot’in, decimated by smallpox and fiercely protective of their homeland, mounted a resistance. It began in April 1864, and by the end of the following month, 19 road builders and a farmer were dead. Government militia failed to capture the chiefs, but the chiefs came out of hiding when they received overtures to speak with the government. They were arrested and tried for murder and hanged. Two hundred and fifty people witnessed the hangings in Quesnel in 1864. The sixth chief was hanged later in New Westminster, the former capital of B.C.The road was never built. “They gave us hope for a better future,” said Alphonse, who told the gathering the spirit of the defiant chiefs was always present during the Tsilhqot’in’s legal wars to protect what they consider their territory. “We have fought in court, and we sit there day after day hearing professional, or so-called professionals, try to dismiss us as a people,” he said. In June of this year, the Tsilhqot’in, who live in the Cariboo-Chilcotin plateau area west of Williams Lake, won a historic Supreme Court of Canada land rights case that gave them title to 1,700 square miles of land in the remote Nemiah Valley, making them the first aboriginal band in Canada to win title to their territory.

Moncton shooter faces possibility of 75 year sentence BY THE CANADIAN PRESS MONCTON, N.B. — When Justin Bourque appears in court Monday, he faces the harshest sentence since the death penalty was abolished for fatally shooting three Mounties and wounding two others in Moncton in early June. However, legal scholars say it’s unlikely the 24-year-old will face the maximum penalty — 75 years in prison before he is eligible to apply for parole — given his age and lack of a criminal record. In early August, Bourque pleaded guilty to three charges of first-degree murder and two counts of attempted murder. A single conviction for firstdegree murder carries a mandatory life sentence and a ban on applying for parole for 25 years. However, Judge David Smith of the Court of Queen’s Bench has said the Crown wants him to use a 2011 amendment to the Criminal Code that allows judges to extend parole ineligibility in the case of multiple murders. In this case, Smith could decide that the 25-year ineligibility period for each murder conviction should be imposed consecutively, which means Bourque wouldn’t be allowed to apply for parole until he was 99 years old. The Harper government changed the law to eliminate what it called the “volume discount” for multiple murderers. The law has been used only once since it was changed. In September 2013, a judge in Edmonton sentenced an armoured-car guard to life in prison with no chance at parole for 40 years for gunning down four of his colleagues during a robbery in June 2012. Travis Baumgartner had pleaded guilty to one count of first-degree murder, two counts of second-degree murder and a charge of attempted murder. It was the toughest criminal penalty since Canada’s last executions in 1962. Baumgartner was facing a 75-year parole ineligibility period, but the judge cited mitigating factors, including his age, lack of a criminal record and his guilty pleas, which prevented a prolonged trial. It’s for these same reasons that law professor Isabel Grant believes Bourque will be given a lighter sentence.

“I would be surprised if the court imposed 75 years on someone his age,” said Grant, who teaches at the University of British Columbia. “To make the jump to 75 years would be quite dramatic.” As well, Grant said the judge may consider mental illness as a mitigating factor during the two-day hearing. Though Bourque was recently found competent to stand trial after undergoing a psychiatric assessment, an affidavit filed by his father Victor says that in the 18 months before the shootings, Justin Bourque’s mental or emotional state deteriorated to the point he was “ranting and raging against all authority.” The affidavit says the young man went from living peacefully with his parents and six siblings in Moncton to buying guns, getting kicked out of the house and becoming depressed and paranoid. Allan Manson, a law professor at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ont., said the judge has to be careful not to impose a sentence that could be the subject of a constitutional challenge on the grounds it amounts to cruel and unusual punishment. “There is ample evidence of serious psychological effects that stem from long-term incarceration,” Manson said in an interview. Archie Kaiser, a law professor at Dalhousie University in Halifax, said the Criminal Code states that when consecutive sentences are imposed, they should not be “unduly long or harsh.” “A person ... sentenced to serving his or her whole life in penitentiary could effectively lose hope,” he said. “Saying that somebody has to be in prison for that long also diminishes one’s confidence in the ability of the prison system to rehabilitate inmates. ... It does begin to look more like vengeance and less like a fit and appropriate sentence.” An agreed statement of facts filed with the court says Bourque’s “actions were both planned and deliberate” when he used a Poly Technologies M305, 308-calibre semi-automatic rifle to kill constables Dave Ross, Fabrice Gevaudan and Douglas Larche. The officers were responding to a report of a man carrying firearms in a residential neighbourhood in the northwest area of Moncton on June 4.

Second worker in critical condition after explosion at Sarnia facility SARNIA, Ont. — A second victim of an explosion at an industrial facility in southwestern Ontario is now in critical condition, police said Sunday. The worker at the Veolia ES Canada Industrial Services Inc. plant in Sarnia has been airlifted to a hospital in London, Ont., Staff-Sgt. David Bonnema said. The explosion ripped through the industrial cleaning and maintenance services facility Saturday afternoon, sending five employees to hospital with burn injuries — one of whom was also critically injured and immediately transferred to London. Bonnema said the Ontario Fire Marshal is investigating the cause of the blast, which tore a hole in the building’s exterior wall. The Ontario Ministry of Labour and Ministry of Environment are also at the scene. No chemicals were released in the explosion, he added. While the scene is contained, a “small, smoldering fire” continues to burn inside the destroyed facility, Sarnia Fire Capt. Dan Nelles said, but crews haven’t reached it yet due to danger from the partial collapse of the roof. Eight workers were inside the building when the blast occurred in the facility’s paint shop, with three assessed at the scene and released. In a statement, Veolia said it is “fully co-operating with the Ministry of Labour and other local authorities to investigate its cause.”

Canadian consulate in Turkey remains closed as officials await test results OTTAWA — Canada’s consulate in Istanbul will remain closed Monday as officials await the results from tests of

a suspicious yellow powder. The consulate in Turkey’s largest city was shut down Friday after the facility received a package containing the powder. Staff members who came into contact with the powder were sent to hospital, though there has been no further information about them. Similar to packages were also sent to the German, Belgian and American consulates in the city. The Department of Foreign Affairs says test results won’t be available before Monday, so the consulate will remain closed. The department says Canadians in the area who require consular assistance should contact the consulate in Ankara.

Montrealers march against Canadian participation in Iraq combat mission MONTREAL — A Montreal anti-war group led a march through the city’s streets today to denounce Canada’s participation in the international combat mission against Islamic State extremists in Iraq. Diane Johnston, one of the protesters, says Canada and the United States need to stop meddling in other the affairs of other countries. The rally began near a downtown cenotaph, where a vigil was held a day earlier for the two Canadian soldiers killed in the past week in two separate attacks in Ottawa and near Montreal. Johnston says those events were tragic but it doesn’t change her belief that Canada shouldn’t engage in military action, which creates more problems than it solves. More than a hundred people were on hand for the protest. Six Canadian fighter jets left on Tuesday to join the mission in Iraq. The CF-18 Hornets headed to Kuwait, which will serve as Canada’s base of operations. About 600 personnel, along with the jets, two surveillance planes and an aerial tanker, will be based there.

SPOOKTACULAR BY ADVOCATE STAFF National Waste Reduction Week wrapped up with the second annual Waste Reduction Spooktacular on Saturday. The Halloween-themed event at the city’s Waste Management Facility saw Red Deerians deck out in costumes and brave the wintery chill in the air for a fun spin on how to reduce, reuse, recycle and divert waste from the landfill. Children were invited to collect Halloween candy while exploring the Interpretive Centre, a place where they can learn first-hand how a landfill breaks down waste, as well as the length of time -15 years- it takes for the simplest of items, such as newspapers, to begin to decompose at the facility. Simple suggestions and ideas on how to minimize waste at home, including ditching the brown paper bags in favour of reusable lunch kits, were on display. The Kerry Wood Nature Centre’s Kathryn Huedepohl was on site to talk about upcycling old household items such as tablecloths, sheets and purses by turning them into unique Halloween costumes and themed decorations. Hearts for Women, Habitat for Humanity and the Recycling Council of Alberta were also in attendance to talk with residents about their waste reduction efforts in the community. Families then had the opportunity to go on a guided bus tour of the facility, a popular activity from last year’s event, where they could view everything from the tipping point of the landfill where weekly household garbage is dumped, to the salvage and composting areas. However, while much of the event promoted the three R’s of waste reduction,it also served to raise awareness about environmentally appropriate disposal. Red Deerians were encouraged to bring in hazardous household waste such as batteries, nail polish, compact fluorescent light bulbs, which cannot be safely dumped into the landfill, as well as electronic waste, much of which can be recycled and reused in other products. Those who brought in items, or dressed up, were entered for a chance to win an iPad. More information on the facility, as well as the city’s Waste Management Master Plan to reduce the amount of waste sent to the landfill through recycling and reduction initiatives over the next ten years, can be found at www.reddeer.ca/waste.

High demand for drugs during outbreak PHARMA INDUSTRY BETTING ON BIG BUCKS DURING WORST EBOLA OUTBREAK BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Drugmakers are racing to develop vaccines and drugs to address the worst outbreak of Ebola in history. It’s unclear who will pay for their products, but companies are betting that governments and aid groups will foot the bill. There are no proven drugs or vaccines for Ebola, in large part because the disease is so rare that up until now it’s been hard to attract research funding. And the West African nations hardest hit by the outbreak are unlikely to be able to afford new Ebola vaccines and drugs. But governments and corporations now are shifting millions of dollars to fight Ebola in the wake of the outbreak that has infected nearly 10,000 people and killed over 4,800. Experts say drugmakers are wagering that international groups and wealthier governments like the U.S. will buy Ebola vaccines and drugs in mass quantities to stockpile them for future use once they’re deemed safe. “The political bet is that the U.S. and World Health Organization have been so embarrassed and burned by this event that they will be willing to change the way they do business,” said Professor Lawrence Gostin of the Georgetown University Law School, who studies global health issues. Drugmakers have benefited from stockpiling before. During the bird flu pandemic of 2009, Western governments spent billions to stock up on drugs and vaccines that mostly went unused. Shelf-life varies by product, but can be as little as a year. Still, it’s unclear who will pay for the Ebola vaccines that are in development, even after a WHO meeting on Thursday that included government officials, drugmakers and philanthropic groups. “Something concrete needs to be developed soon,” said Dr. Manica Balasegaram of Doctors Without Borders, who attended the meeting. “This needs to done in tandem for us to prepare for when these vaccines are deployed in the larger scale beyond clinical trials.” Even with the uncertainty, drug companies are rushing to begin testing in patients. Johnson & Johnson said last week it will begin safety testing in early January of a vaccine combination that could protect against an Ebola strain that is “highly similar” to the virus that triggered the current outbreak. The New Brunswick, New Jersey, company is spending up to $200 million to speed up production of the vaccine, which it licensed in part from a Danish company last month. If safety tests are successful, the company hopes to begin large clinical trials in May 2015.

This photo provided by the World Health Organization (WHO), a package of vials in the first shipment of the experimental vaccine known as VSE-EBOV is opened at the Geneva Cantonal hospital in Geneva. The two leading Ebola vaccines in the pipeline have largely been funded by government efforts, but their testing is being completed by a combination of corporate and public financing. Human trials of a vaccine co-developed by the U.S. National Institutes of Health and GlaxoSmithKline are being funded by the company, its charitable trust and funds from the U.S. and U.K. governments. It is being tested for safety in the U.S., U.K. and Mali. GSK said it might be able to make about 1 million doses of its vaccine per month by the end of 2015, assuming that some logistical and regulatory hurdles can be overcome. A small U.S. drugmaker, NewLink Genetics, holds the license on the second front-runner vaccine, which was initially developed by the Public Health Agency of Canada and has been sent to the U.S. Walter Reed Army Institute of Research in Maryland for testing on healthy volunteers, with preliminary safety results expected by December. Dr. Marie-Paule Kieny from the U.N. health agency told reporters last week that millions of doses could be available in 2015 in West Africa if early tests proved that the two leading experimental vac-

Halloween spending expected to grow this year BY THE CANADIAN PRESS MONTREAL — Halloween holds no fear for retailers. In fact, rather than spooking the economy, all those little (and sometimes not so little) ghosts and goblins scare up monthly spending on tasty treats that is second only to December and the Christmas season. And with the day falling on a Friday this year, interest will likely peak as both children and adults go looking for costumes and decorations as well. Retail consultant John Winter sees Halloween spending growing this year. “Retail sales are not bad at the moment and anyways the expenditure is not high on any of these items and so I expect it to be more popular than last year,” Winter said in an interview. BMO senior economist Robert Kavcic says a drop in gasoline prices will save consumers a few dollars that will likely translate into higher retail sales leading up to Halloween. “The recent slide in oil prices should provide a boost to consumer spending away from the gas station,” he said. Statistics Canada said Canadians doled out $381 million on candy, confectionery and snack foods last October, leaving the month second only to the nearly $451 million spent in December. And the spending doesn’t stop there. Nearly 70 per cent of Canadians plan to celebrate

Halloween this year even though one in eight believe it is getting more expensive, according to a poll conducted by digital coupon website RetailMeNot. About one-third of respondents said they planned to spend more than $50, with spending highest in Alberta and Ontario. The biggest spenders are adults aged 18 to 34 who expected to fork out $75 on average this year, including $25 on costumes, said the online poll of 1,010 Angus Reid Forum panelists conducted Oct. 1-2. Nearly half of those surveyed — including 53 per cent of those polled in Quebec and Alberta — said the pressure to have the best candy is prompting people to spend more. Meanwhile, the survey indicated half of Canadians planned to purchase costumes, with Albertans the biggest buyers and British Columbians the most likely to make their own outfits. Only about half of respondents planned to give out candy to trick-or-treating children knocking at their doors, while 56 per cent said they would buy candy for themselves. One quarter admitted to having taken sugar loot from a child’s stash. The RetailMeNot survey also found that 32 per cent of respondents planned to attend a party involving alcohol, with spooky costumes being the most popular. The polling industry’s professional body, the Marketing Research and Intelligence Association, says online surveys cannot be assigned a margin of error because they do not randomly sample the population.

cines are safe and provoke enough of an immune response to protect people from being infected with Ebola. Kieny also said five other possible Ebola vaccines should start being tested in March, but she gave no details about who is making them, or where those five vaccines would be tested. Virologist Ben Neuman said the unprecedented focus on Ebola also will benefit smaller companies that are developing drugs that can slow the diseases, such as MAPP Pharmaceuticals of San Diego and Tekmira Pharmaceuticals of Canada. “There are lots of very promising options out there,” said Neuman, a professor at the University of Reading in Britain. “One of the treatments or vaccines that they are trying now is going to work. But we don’t know which one.” While there are no reliable estimates of the potential market size for an Ebola drug or vaccine, some drugmakers have already seen their stocks rise on the potential of the therapies in their pipelines. Neuman noted that while Ebola was only confirmed at the end of March, there were reports of suspected Ebola in January. Tekmira’s stock price tripled between January and April of this year.

BRIEF Large gold nugget found in California Gold Country finds secret buyer SAN FRANCISCO — One of the largest gold nuggets in modern times pulled from Northern California’s Gold Country has sold to a secret buyer. The new owner of the so-called Butte Nugget and its exact price will both remain mysteries at the buyer’s request, the San Francisco Chronicle reported Saturday. But Don Kagin, the Tiburon-based coin dealer who brokered the deal, said that a “prominent Bay Area collector” paid about $400,000 for the nugget weighing 6.07 pounds (2.8 kilograms). That wasn’t far off from the asking price, he said. “Let’s just say it’s a win-win for everybody, Kagin said, adding that the nugget went up for sale Thursday with the deal finalized on Friday. Historically, prospectors found giant gold nuggets in California during the 19th century Gold Rush days, including a 54-pound chunk found in Butte County in 1859. It has been decades since a report of anyone discovering a rock of 6 pounds or more in California. The gold hunter who found the nugget found it in July in the mountains of Butte County. He also asked Kagin to keep his name and the location of the discovery a secret. Reports of the nugget’s pending sale caused a near frenzy among gold and history buffs, with the newspaper reporting one bidder inquiring from Australia. “We spoke with six different people who seemed to have a legitimate interest,” said David McCarthy, Kagin’s chief numismatist. “But he was the first person to make an offer and he had the right prices.”

More parents are opening RESPs Higher education is a costly pursuit in Canada that likely will get more expensive in the future. With thousands of students now back at university and college campuses across the country, a study by BMO Global Asset Management has found that a lot of the financial burden of getting a post-secondary education in this country is being borne by the parents. Parents are expecting to pay for 42 per cent of their children’s university and college expenses, including tuition, books, supplies and living expenses. The total cost for an undergraduate university degree currently can exceed $80,000 and is expected to be more TALBOT than $140,000 by the time BOGGS a child born this year is old enough to enrol. “With many Canadian parents footing the bill for such a large portion of their child’s university or college experience, it’s not surprising that the majority are concerned about the costs,” said Robert Armstrong, vice-president and head of managed solution with BMO. “Given these amounts, the sooner parents start

saving for their children’s education through taxefficient vehicles like registered education savings plans (RESPs) the better.” The study found that besides relying on their parents, the other main sources of funding for a postsecondary education include federal and provincial student assistance programs (18 per cent), 17 per cent from students’ savings and 11 per cent from scholarships. Forty-six per cent of parents said they wish they had more support from family and/or friends to help finance their children’s education and 52 per cent wish people would contribute to post-secondary education instead of giving gifts. Parents are worried about the high cost of postsecondary education, their children’s ability to afford it and whether all the expense and work will end up getting them a good job after graduation. Parents increasingly are turning to the RESP to help them put away money to fund their children’s post-secondary education. Sixty-six per cent of parents already have started an RESP for their children, an increase from 52 per cent only two years ago. “It’s clear that parents already have enough to worry about when they send their kids off to school without having to think about how they’re going to pay for it,” said Armstrong. “Opening an RESP as soon as possible, contributing often and taking advantage of government grants such as the Canada learning bond can help lower the financial stress associated with funding a postsecondary education.”

The Canadian government created the registered education savings plan (RESP) in 1998 as a vehicle for parents and others to put aside money to pay for a child’s post-secondary education. RESPs are relatively easy to set up and have some tax and investment advantages. Parents, guardians, grandparents, other relatives or friends can set up an RESP through a financial institution, such as a bank or credit union, a certified financial planner or through a group plan dealer. Up to $50,000 can be contributed into a plan for each child named who is enrolled in qualified educational programs, such as a trade school, college or university. There is no annual contribution limit and the government will add a grant of up to a maximum of $7,200. Income and capital gains can be generated within an RESP through investment in a variety of options, such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, guaranteed investment certificates, and grow tax-free until the children named in the plan are ready to pay for their post-secondary education. They only pay income tax on the gains earned by the plan and the grants as they are withdrawn, which usually is low because the income of most post-secondary students is very limited.

Investors hope economic data will continue to fuel rebound TORONTO — North American stock markets are likely in for more choppy trading, with investors hoping that economic data and this week’s corporate earnings reports will add to last week’s rebound from the recent sell-off. They will also look to the U.S. Federal Reserve for word about further stimulus and the timing of future interest rate hikes. There had been speculation during the worst of the correction two weeks ago that the Fed might delay winding up its key stimulus program at the end of this month — its program of buying hundreds of billions of dollars of bonds to keep long-term rates low and, in turn, encourage people to buy equities. “Given the markets have rebounded somewhat — I think it is premature to say that markets have stabilized — I would say right now that the calls are going to be all across the map,� said Andrew Pyle, senior wealth adviser at ScotiaMcLeod in Peterborough, Ont. “I think you’re going to get folks thinking the Fed may take a more cautious approach to exiting quantitative easing,� he said. “They might be more dovish in their statement per se, but I think you’re going to have views across the map because of this sharp decline, now that we have a rebound.� Meanwhile, U.S. economic growth data for the third quarter comes out Thursday and investors are looking for growth to come in at an annualized rate of three per cent. That is down from 4.6 per cent in the April-June period. But the previous two quarters were volatile after severe weather pushed the American economy into contraction in the first quarter, while the strong showing in the second quarter reflected a rebound from very unusual circumstances. In Canada, gross domestic product for August is expected to come in flat, reflecting a poor showing in the auto sector. The Toronto stock market just had its best week since late August with a gain of 316 points or 2.2 per cent, leaving it down seven per cent from its highs of early September. The TSX is still up 6.75 per cent year to date. The Dow industrials gained 425 points or 2.6 per cent last week and the blue chip index is also well off the

worst of the retracement, down just 2.75 per cent from its most recent record high Sept. 19. Meanwhile, traders will have plenty of earnings reports to consider this week. “Investors in general are looking very closely at the earnings to confirm their hopes that, underneath all the headlines, the fundamentals remain pretty good,� said Bob Gorman, chief portfolio strategist at TD Waterhouse. Investors will be looking particularly at results from the mining and energy sectors, both heavily weighted groups on the TSX which sustained severe losses during the downturn. Teck Resources (TSX:TCK.B) reports Wednesday and expectations are very tame, in large part because markets are at the bottom of the commodity cycle. Teck’s products are essentially copper, zinc and metallurgical coal used to make steel and Gorman pointed out that “those commodities have been flat as a pancake and so the earnings are going to be down.� He said that Teck handed in 44 cents a share a year ago and he suspects that will be cut to 25 or 26 cent for the most recent quarter. Gorman said this doesn’t mean to say Teck doesn’t have a lot going for it — it’s just the wrong time of the business cycle. “The stock has been crushed here — this was over $60 a few years ago and about $18 today, (but has a) solid balance sheet, decent dividend,� he said. “Something like this if you’re patient you will probably do OK with it.� Gorman is also keeping an eye on Suncor Energy (TSX:SU) and Canadian Oil Sands (TSX:COS). Earnings will be impacted by oil prices, which fell heavily in the quarter. Gorman notes that Suncor posted earnings of 95 cents a share a year ago and says they will deteriorate to around 80 cents for the most recent quarter. He sees Canadian Oil Sands posting earnings in the low 40s, down from 51 cents a year ago. “Not bad and frankly, after the Canadian energy stocks were so beaten up, in my opinion they’re trading at very reasonable multiples here so I remain quite keen about Suncor in particular,� said Gorman.

CBC cuts ties with Jian Ghomeshi BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

per screen. Next weekend’s top film is essentially already decided. Christopher Nolan’s space travel thriller Interstellar, one of the year’s most anticipated releases, opens in select theatres Wednesday and then wide on Friday. Nolan, an ardent advocate for film, is releasing the movie first in about 240 theatres that still project 35mm or 70mm, rather than digital. Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theatres, according to Rentrak. Where available, the latest international numbers are also included. Final domestic figures will be released Monday. 1. Ouija, $20 million ($1.3 million international). 2. John Wick, $14.2 million. 3. Fury, $13 million ($11.2 million international). 4. Gone Girl, $11.1 million ($18.4 million international). 5. The Book of Life, $9.8 million ($7.8 million international). 6. St. Vincent, $8.1 million. 7. Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, $7 million ($2.5 million international). 8. The Best of Me, $4.7 million. 9. The Judge, $4.3 million ($6.9 million international). 10. Dracula Untold, $4.3 million ($14.7 million international).

NEW YORK — The spirits moved Ouija to No. 1 at the box office, with the board-game adaption leading the weekend with a $20 million debut, according to studio estimates Sunday. The horror movie release, timed to Halloween, attracted more moviegoers at the North America box office than the violent Keanu Reeves thriller John Wick. The R-rated hit-man revenge tale from Lionsgate opened with $14.2 million in second place. Last week’s top film, the Brad Pitt World War II action film Fury, slid to third with $13 million. In two weeks, the Sony Pictures release has made $46.1 million. Board-game adaptions such as Ouija have had a checkered history at the box office, with the big-budget Battleship — the last Hasbro game turned into a movie — famously flopping in 2012. But Ouija, made by Blumhouse Productions and released by Universal Pictures, was made for just $5 million, and scared up moviegoers with a micro-budget summoning of brand-name occult. Universal also could claim the top spot in the world’s other top market, China, where the Scarlett Johansson sci-fi film Lucy opened with $19 million.

TORONTO — Q radio host Jian Ghomeshi says he has been fired from the CBC because they believed his “sexual behaviour was unbecoming of a prominent host” on the public broadcaster. Ghomeshi made the claim in a startling Facebook post Sunday that surfaced just hours after CBC issued a statement saying they were severing ties with the popular personality because of “information” they’d received about him. After that announcement, a Toronto law firm representing Ghomeshi issued a brief statement saying it would launch a lawsuit against the CBC. “I’ve been fired from the CBC because of the risk of my private sex life being made public as a result of a campaign of false allegations pursued by a jilted ex girlfriend and a freelance writer,” Ghomeshi said in the post, which a publicist confirmed had indeed been written by the radio host. In the post, Ghomeshi said he has “always been interested in a variety of activities in the bedroom” but only engages in “sexual practices that are mutually agreed upon, consensual, and exciting for both partners.” He said he began to date a woman in her late 20s two years ago and that they had an “affectionate, casual and passionate” relationship that involved “adventurous forms of sex.” He went on to say he ended their relationship earlier this year, which upset the woman, and that early in the spring there was “a campaign of harassment, vengeance and demonization” that resulted in “months of anxiety.” He went on to say in the post: “It came to light that a woman had begun anonymously reaching out to people that I had dated (via Facebook) to tell them she had been a victim of abusive relations with me. In other words, someone was reframing what had been an ongoing consensual relationship as something nefarious. I learned — through one of my friends who got in contact with this person — that someone had rifled through my phone on one occasion and taken down the names of any woman I had seemed to have been dating in

recent years. This person had begun methodically contacting them to try to build a story against me.” In addition, he asserted in the post: “Someone also began colluding with a freelance writer who was known not to be a fan of mine and, together, they set out to try to find corroborators to build a case to defame me.” Ghomeshi said he has been open with CBC about the matter and that he has “never believed it was anyone’s business” what he does in his private affairs but that he wanted his bosses to be aware of the situation. “CBC has been part of the team of friends and lawyers assembled to deal with this for months,” he wrote. “On Thursday I voluntarily showed evidence that everything I have done has been consensual. I did this in good faith and because I know, as I have always known, that I have nothing to hide. This when the CBC decided to fire me.” “CBC execs confirmed that the information provided showed that there was consent. In fact, they later said to me and my team that there is no question in their minds that there has always been consent. They said they’re not concerned about the legal side. But then they said that this type of sexual behaviour was unbecoming of a prominent host on the CBC. They said that I was being dismissed for ’the risk of the perception that may come from a story that could come out.’ To recap, I am being fired in my prime from the show I love and built and threw myself into for years because of what I do in my private life.” A CBC spokesman said the broadcaster had no comment on the Facebook post because of the pending lawsuit. Earlier, the broadcaster said the decision to cut ties with Ghomeshi was: “Not made without serious deliberation and careful consideration. Jian has made an immense contribution to the CBC and we wish him well.”

Rebels rewarded for strong team play GET WIN OVER MOOSE JAW FOR SECOND VICTORY IN AS MANY GAMES BY GREG MEACHEM ADVOCATE SPORTS EDITOR Rebels 5 Warriors 1 All hands were on deck for a second consecutive night as the Red Deer Rebels rolled to a 5-1 Western Hockey League win over the Moose Jaw Warriors Saturday. Coming off a complete-team effort in Friday’s 6-3 victory over the visiting Prince George Cougars, the Rebels turned in a similar performance against the Warriors before a recorded gathering of 4,491 at the Enmax Centrium. “It was really a strong team game. I was really happy with everyone in our lineup, right from (goaltender Rylan) Toth right on through,” said Rebels GM/head coach Brent Sutter, who watched his two best players — centre Conner Bleackley and defenceman Haydn Fleury — perform to their lofty standards. Bleackley scored once and picked up a pair of helpers and Fleury was a two-way force the entire evening. “When your top guys are where they need to be, it allows everyone else to settle in and play their game too,” said Sutter. “I thought both Haydn and Bleacks played very well this weekend. And all of our other older guys were good too . . . right down the line.” Wyatt Johnson squeezed a shot past Moose Jaw netminder Justin Paulic to open the scoring 13:25 into the contest and the lead held up until Kolten Olynek notched a short-handed, two-on-one goal at 2:55 of the middle stanza. Bleackley converted a fine feed from rookie Jeff de Wit just over five minutes later

Red Deer Rebels goalie Rylan Toth stops Moose Jaw Warriors forward Brayden Point in WHL action at the Centrium in Red Deer on Saturday. Red Deer won 5-1. and his third tally of the season proved to be the winner. Evan Polei connected from close range and Meyer Nell cashed Kayle Doetzel’s nifty

pass from the point before the period was over. Scott Feser closed out the scoring with a third-period short-handed goal, beating

Paulic after taking a two-onone feed from Bleackley. The losers of five in a row and the owners of a 3-7-1-0 record prior to the weekend, the

Rebels decided to take a new approach and embrace a fresh start. So far, so good. “We hit the reset button and started our season over this weekend and said we need to play a 61-game season now,” said Sutter. “Everyone is back in the right frame of mind and with the right attitude, now we just have to continue to carry it through. When we think and play the right way, we’re a good hockey team.” Fleury said the key to the back-to-back wins was the Rebels’ ability to handle misfortune, such as the Warriors’ short-handed goal. “We played the full 60 minutes tonight and anything that came our way, we seemed to deal with it really well,” he said. “We dealt with adversity way better than we did during the last two weeks.” As for his own performance.... “I kind of had some time to get refreshed last week and get refocused on what I need to do each and every night,” said the Carolina Hurricanes prospect. “I’ve been preparing a bit differently and it showed the last two nights.” Toth had a relatively easy night while stopping 22 shots. The Rebels fired 35 shots at Paulic. The Rebels host the Medicine Hat Tigers Tuesday at 7 p.m., then head out on a sixgame road trip starting Friday against the Kootenay Ice. Red Deer is in Spokane the following night, then visits the Seattle Thunderbirds, Everett Silvertips, Portland Winterhawks and Tri-City Americans over the next seven days. gmeachem@reddeeradvocate. com

Saints march Bumgarner leads Giants to past Packers win and World Series lead BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Saints 44 Packers 23 NEW ORLEANS — Drew Brees treated a national audience to yet another prolific performance in the Superdome, and New Orleans’ defence helped out with a few big plays of its own. Brees completed 27 of 32 passes for 311 yards and three touchdowns, and the Saints ended the Green Bay Packers’ four-game winning streak, 4423 on Sunday night. Rookie receiver Brandin Cooks had a 50-yard touchdown catch and a 4-yard scoring run, and tight end Jimmy Graham caught a touchdown pass. The Saints (3-4) pulled even in victories with Carolina (3-4-1), setting up a Thursday night showdown for first place in the NFC South. Aaron Rodgers, intercepted only once in Green Bay’s first seven games, was picked off twice on tipped passes and sacked three times. He still passed for 418 yards, including a 70-yard touchdown pass to Randall Cobb, but it was not nearly enough to prevent the Packers (5-3) from falling a game behind NFC North leader Detroit. Eddie Lacy, who grew up in the New Orleans area, had 181 yards from scrimmage — including 123 yards on eight catches — in his homecoming, but was stopped on fourthand-short in Green Bay territory in the third quarter. Soon after, the Saints cashed in on Graham’s touchdown to make it a two-score game. Brees completed all 11 of his passes in the second half, including a 2-yard touchdown pass to tight end Josh Hill, as the Saints improved to 3-0 at home this season. It also marked New Orleans’ 14th straight victory in a night game in the Superdome, going back to 2009. Most of those games weren’t close, and the latest one followed suit. Green Bay was without two starting defensive backs: cornerback Sam Shields and safety Morgan Burnett. Compounding matters for Green Bay’s defence was the strong running of Mark Ingram, which only made Brees’ play-action fakes more effective. Carrying a heavy load in the absence of

NFL MORE NFL ACTION ON B4 injured running backs Pierre Thomas and Khiry Robinson, Ingram had 24 carries for a career-high 172 yards and a touchdown. The game appeared to turn on the Saints’ first interception, which came when the Packers were in range of a gohead score early in the third quarter. Cornerback Corey White tipped a pass intended for Andrew Quarless near the goal line and linebacker David Hawthorne caught it. That led to Cooks’ TD. Later, Saints coach Sean Payton set up New Orleans’ fourth-down stop by challenging the spot of a reception near the first down marker. Initially ruled a first down, the spot was moved back a yard, then Hawthorne and defensive tackle Tyrunn Walker stuffed Lacy’s run to the right. Neither team had trouble moving the ball in the first half, but both defences were largely successful in mitigating the damage on the scoreboard. Each offence got in the end zone only once. Green Bay’s Mason Crosby and New Orleans’ Shayne Graham each kicked three field goals and there were no punts. Brees hit Kenny Stills for 45-yard completion on New Orleans’ opening drive, which ended with a 4-yard touchdown run by Cooks, tying it at 7. Green Bay marched right back down the field thanks to Lacy, who turned a short-pass into a tackle-shedding 67-yard gain to the 3. However, the Saints responded by stuffing Lacy on his next run, then got a break when veteran linebacker Julius Peppers, inserted as a tight end, dropped a pass in the end zone. Defensive end Cameron Jordan then sacked Rodgers, forcing a field goal. The Packers tried to steal an extra possession with a surprise onside kick, but the Saints’ Ramon Humber got the ball first and diverted it out of bounds at the Green Bay 46.

SERIES HEADS BACK TO KANSAS CITY WITH GIANTS ONLY NEEDING ONE WIN BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Giants 5 Royals 0 SAN FRANCISCO — With every pitch, Madison Bumgarner etched his place among the World Series greats. The long, tall lefty kept slinging away and put the San Francisco Giants just one win from yet another championship, throwing a four-hitter to beat the Kansas City Royals 5-0 Sunday night for a 3-2 Series edge. Hardly menacing on the mound, Bumgarner was simply untouchable — again. As “MVP! MVP!” chants broke out from each packed corner of AT&T Park, Bumgarner finished off the first World Series shutout in 11 years. “You know what? For some reason, I keep getting really lucky this time of year, so I’ll take it,” Bumgarner said. It must be more than luck. Because by the time the 25-year-old from Hickory, North Carolina, closed out his second win in a week, he had evoked memories of Bob Gibson, Sandy Koufax, Curt Schilling and the top October aces of all-time. Joined them, and maybe even passed them. Who else has gone 4-0 in four World Series starts with an 0.29 ERA? Throw in only 12 hits in 31 innings, along with 27 strikeouts, and that adds up to the very definition of BigGame Pitcher. On this evening, he fanned eight without a walk and never was in trouble. There hadn’t been a shutout in the Series since Josh Beckett’s clinching gem for the Florida Marlins in 2003 at Yankee Stadium. The Giants’ work isn’t done yet. To lock up their third crown in five years, they’ll need to win in Kansas City. “We’re looking forward to getting back to our home crowd, where it’s going to be absolutely wild and crazy,” Royals manager Ned Yost

Kansas City Royals Salvador Perez misses the throw to home as San Francisco Giants Hunter Pence scores on a two-run RBI double by Juan Perez during the eighth inning of Game 5 of baseball’s World Series Sunday, in San Francisco. said. Jake Peavy gets the first chance to seal it for San Francisco when he starts Game 6 at Kauffman Stadium on Tuesday night against rookie Yordano Ventura. If the Giants don’t win then, there is always this possibility: Bumgarner out of the bullpen in Game 7. “This guy was right on tonight. He was strong all night,” manager Bruce Bochy said. “You know when this guy is on, it’s fun to watch. I mean, he was hitting his spots, had great stuff.” Ahead by five, Bochy let Bumgarner bat in the eighth inning. “Sure I thought about maybe taking him out, but he was throwing too good,” Bochy said. Hunter Pence once again was in the middle of things for Giants. He singled off James Shields in the second and scored on a groundout by Brandon Crawford, who had three RBIs. Later, the enigmatic Pence accidentally threw his bat past the mound while striking out, and appeared to apologize to Shields. Pence added another hit in a three-run eighth, making him 9 for 19 in the five games. Post-season star Pablo Sandoval also singled twice. Juan Perez broke it open with a two-run double off the top of the centre-field fence in the eighth off Wade Davis and

scored on a single by Crawford. Since trailing 4-1 in Game 4, the Giants have responded with 15 straight runs. San Francisco won that game, putting aside concern that Bumgarner should’ve been moved up to pitch on short rest. Bumgarner won for the fourth time against one loss in this post-season, and this blanking bookended the fourhit shutout he threw at Pittsburgh in the NL wild-card game. Durable, he’s thrown 47 2-3 innings this October, trailing just Schilling’s 48 1-3 in 2001 for the most in a single post-season. Given an early lead, Bumgarner was in control. He surely didn’t need much of a cushion, and looked even better than he did in winning the opener in Kansas City. And on the rare occasion when the 6-foot-5 Bumgarner made a mistake, failing to cover first base on a grounder to the right side, his defence bailed him out. Toward the late innings, it appeared that only a lightning strike could rescue the Royals, perhaps a home run out of nowhere. Not happening — this was the third straight game without either team hitting a homer, the longest streak in the World Series since 1948 when the Boston Braves and Cleveland began with a threegame drought, STATS said.

Numbers put Bergeron in same class as Crosby ANALYTICS RANK BRUINS STAR AMONG NHL’S TOP 3 FORWARDS, MIGHT EVEN BE NO. 1 The best forwards in the NHL last season were Sidney Crosby, Jonathan Toews and Patrice Bergeron. And not necessarily in that order. There isn’t much disagreement as to the first two, but most hockey fans wouldn’t put Bergeron in the same class. They’d be wrong. In almost every aspect of the game - both offensive and defensive - last season, Bergeron not only held his own against “Captain Canada” (Crosby) and “Captain Serious” (Toews), he actually beat them or even blew them completely out of the water. Everybody realizes Bergeron is a premier defensive player, but before we talk defence let’s consider offence. Last season in 5-on-5 play Bergeron scored as many goals as Toews (19) and just one fewer than Crosby. Because Bergeron gets slightly less ice time than those two, his goals per 60 minutes is actually higher than both of theirs. In terms of total points, Bergeron fares slightly worse, though his 2.27 points per 60 minutes is just a shade behind Toews’ 2.35 P/60 and within striking distance of Crosby’s 2.54 P/60. That’s offence. Let’s look at some metrics that incorporate defensive performance, which has always been Bergeron’s strong suit. Because Corsi For % (CF%) reflects the percentage of shots taken by the player’s team relative to his opponent, it incorporates defensive play. There’s nobody better than Bergeron in CF%. At 61.2 per cent last year (in 5-on-5 play) he was No. 1 in the league. Toews’ excellent 59.1 per cent was good for eighth overall, while

Crosby only registered 53.0 per cent (30th). To be fair, CF% isn’t exactly an apples-to-apples comparison because the Bruins and Blackhawks were much better possession teams than the Penguins. So Crosby’s CF% would have been brought down by his teammates’ performance. To account for this factor many in the hockey analytics community prefer a stat called “CF Rel%” As we explained last week, CF Rel% measures each player’s CF% “Rel”ative to that of his team. Basically it reflects how much better (or worse) the player’s CF% was relative to his team’s average, thus providing a Corsi-based

stat that more accurately reflects just the player’s own performance. It turns out Bergeron’s CF% Rel stacks up even better than his straight CF%. At +9.69 (third overall), Bergeron was almost 10 points higher than the average player on a Bruins team that was already one of the best in the league. Crosby’s CF% Rel was a very solid +6.93 (19th), with Toews at +5.33 (38th). For the coup de grace let’s look at one of my favourite stats: WOWYs. “WOWY” is an acronym for With Or Without You. It measures the performance of a player by looking at whether other players produce more when playing with him or without him. Captains Canada and Serious have excellent WOWYs (to see their WOWY graphs, visit us at www.depthockeyanalytics.com). But Bergeron’s is jawdropping. Although Ryan Getzlaf also has to be in the running for best forward in the world after finishing second in both scoring and MVP voting last season, he doesn’t hold a candle to Bergeron. Using a simple average, Bergeron’s CF% WOWY was +10.1. In other words, on average his Bruins teammates had a CF% more than

10 points higher when playing with Bergeron versus playing without him. Getzlaf’s average was +0.8. And just to drive the point home, take a look at what Bergeron did for Zdeno Chara - arguably the best defenceman since Nik Lidstrom. It’s not that hard to take a bad player and make him look average, but Bergeron took one of the best defencemen of our generation and added a massive 8.7 points to his CF%. Unreal. Bergeron isn’t even the captain of the Bruins (Chara is). But I think he deserves a captain nickname to go with Crosby’s Captain Canada and Toews’ Captain Serious. Given what the numbers tell us, “Captain Everything” has a nice ring to it for Bergeron.

Pair of goals from Ward pushes Capitals past Flames Capitals 3 Flames 1 CALGARY — Dropped to the fourth line by Barry Trotz, Joel Ward responded just as the coach knew he would. Ward scored twice — including the game-winner — to lead the Washington Capitals to a 3-1 victory over the Calgary Flames on Saturday. “I’ve known Joel a long time. Sometimes, Joel recognizes when he can go a little better. It’s a great response from him,” said Trotz. “He scored two big goals for us tonight and that’s what you want. You want guys to respond, not to pout. You want him to take it as something to motivate him and he played very well.” Ward’s second of the night 5:31 into the second period broke a 1-1 tie and gave the Capitals a lead they would not relinquish. The goal was set up by rookie Michael Latta, who carried the puck in deep before centring it to the front of the net where Ward, at the far goal post, was able to backhand it behind Karri Ramo. “Heck of a job from our line today. Latts and (Liam) O’Brien played a really strong game,” said Ward. “They work hard but they also work smart. Both can play. Latts played quite a few games up with us last year. O’Brien had a great camp. We’re just having fun. I think that was key. In practice we had a couple of moments where we made some good plays and it carried over today.” Reunited with Trotz, who he had as his coach in Nashville for his first three NHL seasons, Ward has four goals — just one back of Alex Ovechkin’s teamleading five. Nicklas Backstrom also scored for Washington (4-1-2), which has split the opening two games of its three-game road swing through Western Canada. The Capitals wrap up the trip Sunday night in Vancouver with a game against the Canucks. The Capitals moved to within two points of the

Exactly why the man nicknamed MadBum is so dominant isn’t easily apparent. Royals cleanup hitter Eric Hosmer said before the game that Bumgarner’s “cross-body” delivery is tough to pick up. Bumgarner definitely has an impressive whip, along with an imposing WHIP in the World Series. His walks-plus-hits ratio per inning is incredible. Bumgarner certainly excels at keeping hitters swinging at shadows by changing speeds. Kansas City batters chased balls that bounced as well as high ones out of the strike zone. After Salvador Perez led off the second with a single — he homered in Game 1 for the lone run off Bumgarner — the slow-walking lefty who never seems to be in a hurry made quick work of the Royals. Bumgarner struck out the next three batters, all swinging. He was at his best against pesky Omar Infante on three pitches: a 76 mph curve, a fastball at 91 and a slider at 86. About the only thing Bumgarner didn’t do was get a hit. He takes pride in his plate prowess and launched four home runs this season, including two grand slams. Bumgarner went 0 for 4, leaving him hitless in 22 post-season at-bats. Yep, he’s still got some work to do.

New Orleans drove inside the 10, only to settle for a tying field goal after Peppers’ third-down sack of Brees. Green Bay had a 16-13 lead on Crosby’s 27-yard field goal with 1:51 left in the second quarter, but Brees quickly marched the Saints to the 19 before a lack of time forced New Orleans to settle for Graham’s 37-yard field goal to tie it.

Roethlisberger sets records in Steelers win over Colts NFL ROUNDUP BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS STEELERS 51 COLTS 34 PITTSBURGH — Ben Roethlisberger set franchise records with 522 yards passing and six touchdowns and the Pittsburgh Steelers raced by the Indianapolis Colts 51-34 on Sunday. Roethlisberger’s yardage total was the fourth highest in NFL history. He became the first player to go over 500 yards passing twice as the Steelers (5-3) won consecutive games for the first time this season. Antonio Brown caught 10 passes for 133 yards and two scores. Heath Miller caught seven passes for 112 yards and the clinching TD with 5:14 remaining. Andrew Luck passed for 400 yards and three touchdowns, but also threw two interceptions. He handed the Steelers a safety when he was called for intentional grounding in the end zone midway through the fourth quarter as the Colts saw their five-game winning streak end spectacularly. BENGALS 27, RAVENS 24 Andy Dalton made up for his two second-half turnovers by scoring on a 1-yard sneak with 57 seconds left on Sunday, rallying the Cincinnati Bengals to a 27-24 victory over the Baltimore Ravens that tightened the AFC North race. The Bengals (4-2-1) wasted an 11-point lead as Dalton’s fumble and interception helped the Ravens (5-3) pull ahead 24-20 with 3:59 left. That’s when Dalton pulled it out against the NFL’s stingiest defence. He threw a 53-yard pass to Mohamed Sanu on third-and-10 — safety Terrence Brooks got turned around — and took it the final yard on fourth down, completing a 10-play, 80-yard drive. LIONS 22, FALCONS 21 LONDON (AP) — Matt Prater kicked a 48-yard field goal on the last play of the game Sunday, lifting the Lions after trailing by 21 points. Prater capped a second straight late winning drive for the Lions (6-2), who also rallied to beat the Saints last week. Matthew Stafford threw for 325 yards and two touchdowns, giving him 120 TDs, breaking the Lions record of 118 held by Bobby Layne. Matt Ryan led the Falcons (2-6) with 228 yards passing and two touchdowns, but clock management problems, a penalty and a dropped pass doomed the Falcons at the end. The blown halftime lead tied the biggest in Atlanta history. CARDINALS 24, EAGLES 20 GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Carson Palmer lofted a 75-yard touchdown pass to rookie John Brown with 1:21 to play to give Arizona a stunning victory in a matchup of two of the NFL’s four one-loss teams entering this week. The Cardinals (6-1) had a goal-line stand that forced the Eagles (5-2) to settle for a 20-yard field goal that put Philadelphia up 20-17 with 1:56 left. Then on third-and-5, Palmer — who also had an 80-yard TD pass to Larry Fitzgerald — heaved the ball deep, where the speedy Brown gathered it in and crossed the goal line just as he was being tackled. The Eagles drove to the Arizona 16. On the last play, Jordan Matthews caught a pass from Nick Foles in the end zone but landed out of bounds. SEAHAWKS 13, PANTHERS 9 CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Russell Wilson threw a 23-yard touchdown pass to Luke Willson with 47 seconds left. It’s the third straight year Wilson has brought the Seahawks (4-3) back from a second-half deficit to beat the Panthers on the road. In the previous two seasons, Wilson threw second-half TD passes to Jermaine Kearse and Golden Tate in tight defen-

Carolina’s defence, which had allowed at least 37 points in four of its previous five games, held the Seahawks in check before Wilson led a nine-play, 80-yard drive for the only touchdown. Wilson finished 20 of 32 for 199 yards with one interception and one touchdown. Cam Newton was 12 of 27 for 121 yards with an interception and a fumble for the Panthers (3-4-1). PATRIOTS 51, BEARS 23 FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Tom Brady threw five scoring passes and the streaking Patriots crammed three touchdowns into the last two minutes of the first half. New England (6-2) scored on all five of its possessions in the half — and one of Chicago’s — on its way to its fourth straight win. The Bears (3-5) fell behind 45-7 early in the second half and lost for the fourth time in five games. In one of the best statistical games of his brilliant career, Brady completed 30 of 35 passes for 354 yards. He threw three scoring passes to Rob Gronkowski and one each to Tim Wright and Brandon LaFell. VIKINGS 19, BUCCANEERS 13, OT TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Anthony Barr forced a fumble on the first play of overtime and returned it 27 yards to score. The stunning end came just 17 seconds after the Vikings (3-5) extended the game on Blair Walsh’s 38-yard field goal on the final play of regulation. Teddy Bridgewater threw for 241 yards, one TD and no interceptions to help Minnesota stop a threegame skid. Mike Glennon threw a 7-yard scoring pass to Austin Seferian-Jenkins to give Tampa Bay (1-6) a 13-10 lead with 2:02 remaining. But the Bucs’ porous defence couldn’t stop Bridgewater from putting together a nine-play, 61-yard march to get the game into OT. Glennon’s pass to Seferian-Jenkins gained 10 yards before Barr stripped the ball from the rookie tight end and took it up the left sideline to score. CHIEFS 34, RAMS 7 KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Jamaal Charles ran for two touchdowns, Knile Davis returned a kick 99 yards for another score and the Chiefs trounced their cross-state rival. Cairo Santos added a pair of field goals for Kansas City (4-3), including a career-best 53-yarder. Alex Smith was 24 of 28 for 226 yards, while Davis capped a run of 34 unanswered points with a short touchdown run late in the fourth quarter. Justin Houston had three of the Chiefs’ seven sacks.

The banged-up Rams (2-5) lost their sixth straight to Kansas City dating to Sept. 25, 1994, when they were still in Los Angeles. Austin Davis threw for 160 yards with a touchdown and a pick. DOLPHINS 27, JAGUARS 13 JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Rookie Blake Bortles had two interceptions returned for touchdowns, costly mistakes that helped the Dolphins win. Louis Delmas (81 yards) and Brent Grimes (22 yards) scored on the turnovers for the Dolphins (4-3), who won consecutive games for the first time this season. Ryan Tannehill’s 3-yard pass to Rishard Matthews made it 24-6 late in the third quarter and gave the Dolphins a comfortable cushion in a game they could have easily trailed by double digits. The Jaguars (1-7) dominated the first half, but trailed 10-3 at the break because of miscues. Bortles was the culprit, continuing a trend that started when he took over the starting job last month. Bortles had three turnovers Sunday, giving him six in the last two weeks and 13 in six games. Four of those have been interceptions returned for touchdowns. BILLS 43, JETS 23 EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Kyle Orton threw four touchdown passes and the Bills forced six turnovers, three each by Geno Smith and Michael Vick. Orton won for the third time in four games since replacing EJ Manuel as the starting quarterback for the Bills (5-3), tossing TD passes to Robert Woods, Lee Smith, Scott Chandler and Sammy Watkins against the listless Jets (1-7). Stephon Gilmore, Preston Brown, Aaron Williams and Da’Norris Searcy had interceptions for the Bills. The Jets have lost seven straight for the first time since 2005, in Herm Edwards’ final season as coach.

Young Raiders looking to repeat HIGH SCHOOL VOLLEYBALL BY JOSH ALDRICH ADVOCATE STAFF There’s a reason the cliche about the difficulty in repeating as a champion exists and at the high school level it only becomes tougher. It is the feat the Lindsay Thurber Raiders senior boy’s volleyball team is trying to accomplish this year after capturing last year’s provincial banner. However, they only return three players and one starter from their championship roster due to graduation. Still, they find themselves as one of the top teams in the region, along with Notre Dame, with their sites set squarely on returning to the provincial tournament. “We’re quite close with (Notre Dame),” said Raiders head coach Terence McMullen, noting several close battles already this season. “We’re young, they’re young and it’s going to be the team that figures it out the fastest that gets out of the zone and goes on to provincials.” The Raiders finished tied for third at their 41st annual varsity tournament this weekend with the Catholic Central Cougars out of Lethbridge — Thurber rolled through undefeated to the semifinal where they lost to the Notre Dame Cougars 2-0 (25-15, 25-19). Notre Dame then lost 2-1 (2125, 25-21, 15-9) to the E.P. Scarlett Lancers out of Calgary. There is still glut of talent in the lineup, including Grade 11 left side Ben Holmes who is the only starter back from last year and even he is moving over from the middle. But as one of the most talented prospects in the region, the move was made necessary to better take advantage of his raw offensive skills. “He’s had a little bit of a transition, but he fits well for us, he’s one of our best athletes so he needs to be on the outside so he can get the ball a whole bunch,” said McMullen. “Looking forward for this year and next year it was a no-

brainer to out him in a spot where he’d get a high volume.” Holmes will be joined by Grade 12 returnees captain Jarrett Zilinski on the left side and setter Fischer Kooman and together form a solid leadership core. Having this trio back is key in passing on the lessons they learned in becoming the best team in Alberta. “When you build programs, in high school it’s hard because you can’t really recruit anybody, so having your program develop those things on their own and pass them on is huge,” said McMullen. “That experience is invaluable right now, especially with Jarrett, he’s very vocal and he’s very helpful in that he’s almost an assistant coach on the floor.” There are a number of young players that have shown a lot of potential in the young season that has McMullen encouraged not just for this season but for subsequent years including Grade 10 middle Reece Lehman and setter Chris Graham, both of whom come from deep volleyball families. “They’re able to do thing that most Grade 10s can’t in terms of just what they understand and the kind of pressure you can put on them,” said McMullen. “It’s really nice to have two really good Grade 10s and a couple of really good Grade 11s and the older Grade 12s that are your leaders. You work through that whole program not just this year but next year and the year after as well.” The Raiders senior girls team is also coming off a successful season in which they won the consolation title at provincials and also are in a bit of a rebuild this year. They have five veterans back from that team — Grade 12s setter Bretton Bowd, setter Molly Rumohr, outside hitter Tara Sudlow and Grade 11 libero Kaylee Domoney and outside hitter Kelsey Lalor — but are in the process of figuring out who they are as a team. “We’ve been striving to be competitive in every game,” said head coach Kirsten De-

JUNIOR B HOCKEY Copperheads 6 Vipers 5 The Red Deer Vipers notched a pair of unanswered third-period goals but fell just short in a 6-5 Heritage Junior B Hockey League loss to the host Coaldale Copperheads Saturday. Nick Glackin, Kale Lapointe, Eric Moltzahn, Adam Ferguson and Justin Corbett scored for the Vipers, who got a 31-save outing from Rylan Bardick. Carefoot MacCauley made 30 saves for the Copperheads, who led 4-2 after one period and 6-3 after 40 minutes. Vipers 3 Generals 2 On Friday, Cole deGraaf scored in overtime to give the Vipers a 3-2 victory over the visiting Cochrane Generals. It was the second goal of the game for deGraaf, who connected at 15:44 of the third period to force the extra session. Matthew Thiessen accounted for the other Red Deer goal, while winning netminder Lane Congdon blocked 23 shots. Cochrane goaltender McKenzie Chalmers made 32 saves. In other Heritage League weekend contests: ● The Three Hills Thrashers posted a pair of wins — 4-2 over the visiting Okotoks Bisons Saturday and 5-2 over the Thunder Friday at Airdrie. Scoring for the Thrashers Saturday were Connor Ablett, Joey Ramsell, Spencer Fournier and Dru Hickie. Greg Pols came up big in the Three Hills

net, making 54 saves as his teammates were outshot 56-28. Derek Schneider and Michael Lougheed potted second-period goals Friday to open the Thrashers’ scoring. Tom Vanderline, Cody Phillips and Patrick Fougere, into an empty net, scored third-period goals for the visitors. Pols turned aside 47 shots, while James Fisk made 39 saves for Airdrie. ● The Ponoka Stampeders dropped a pair of games — 7-1 to the visiting Strathmore Wheatland Kings Sunday and 8-6 to the Mountainview Colts Saturday at Didsbury. Nate Higgins accounted for the only Ponoka goal Sunday. Netminder Eli Falls made 22 saves in a losing cause as each team had 29 shots on goal. The Stampeders got goals from six players — Higgins, Tyson Crampain, Brendan Scott, Chandler Knibb, Cody Lemon and Tye Munro — during Saturday’s setback. Zane Steeves made 42 saves for Ponoka, outshot 50-35. ● Scott Ternes erupted for four goals but his Stettler Lightning dropped a 6-5 decision to the visiting Medicine Hat Cubs Saturday. Adam Ternes also scored for the Lightning, who were outshot 51-42. Jordan McCallum made 46 saves in a losing cause. The Lightning fell 3-1 Sunday to the host Okotoks Bisons. Details were unavailable.

Bandits steal win from Grizzlys JUNIOR A HOCKEY Bandits 2 Grizzlys 0 OLDS — Jared Cockrell scored the eventual winner late in the first period and the Brooks Bandits went on to defeat the Olds Grizzlys 2-0 in an Alberta Junior Hockey League game Saturday. Mark Logan potted what amounted to an insurance marker at 11:27 of the second period. Bandits netminder

Josh Davies stopped 32 shots for the shutout, while Jordan Piccolino made 33 saves for Olds before 613 fans at the Sportsplex. Brooks was zero-for-14 on the power play. Olds was zero-for-nine with a man advantage. The Grizzlys are idle until Friday when they host the Calgary Mustangs.

Lindsay Thurber Raiders right side Wesley Hackel blocks an attack by Robert Thirsk Comets Jordan Crayford during the LTCHS senior volleyball tournament on Friday. Zutter. “We have a young team but it’s an exciting team to coach. We’re just focusing on developing skills.” The Raiders girls also finished tied for third at their tournament on the weekend, though with the Hunting Hills Lightning. The Raiders finished first in the A pool with a 3-1 record and beat Notre Dame in the quarter-final 2-1 (20-25, 25-16, 15-11) but fell 2-0 (25-16, 25-21) to the Bev Facey Falcons out of Sherwood Park in the semifinal. Bec Facey went on to beat Scarlett 2-0 (25-21, 25-18) in the final. While they would like to at least repeat last year’s accomplishments, they are building towards the future with five Grade 11s and three Grade 10s currently on the roster and a strong group of girls on the junior varsity team.

“They work so hard in practice, they are so coachable,” said DeZutter. “It is one of the most positive teams I’ve ever worked with.” DeZutter is leaning on the experience of her five returning players to pass on the Raiders way. “It’s critical, you try and draw on their experience from the previous year to help the rest of the team be prepared for what’s coming from other teams, but also for Lindsay Thurber Raiders play and how we work and how we function and what are our team traditions,” she said. They are not the biggest team in the province, so they focus on using their speed and team defence to counter the attacks of some of their taller competition. Still expectations are high

for this year. “We want to compete at a high level and compete at with the Central Alberta teams,” said DeZutter. “Our goal is to be the Central Alberta representative at provincials.” NOTES — The Hunting Hills Lightning girls finished 4-0 in Pool B, and beat Robert Thirsk out of Calgary in the quarters before falling 2-0 (2927, 25-19) in the quarters to Bev Facey ... Scarlett was the only team to beat the Notre Dame boys in the round robin, winning 2-0 (26-24, 25-19) ... The Hunting Hills boys finished 0-3 in the round robin before losing 2-1 (26-24, 21-25, 15-11) to Lindsay Thurber in the quarter-final ...

RDC men’s cross-country finish fourth at ACAC championships, Queens sixth BY ADVOCATE STAFF FORT MCMURRAY — The Red Deer College Kings went into the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference cross-country championships in Fort McMurray as legitimate podium contenders and came back with a fourth place finish, just four points out of the medals. They were led by Noah Arychuk (28 minutes, 28 seconds) and Mitchell Dore (28:38) who finished the eight kilometre course in eighth and ninth respectively and Andrew Jacobs (29:31) was just out side the top 10 in 13th. The Queens meanwhile, finished in sixth place, led by Jordanna Cota (21:11) who finished the five kilometre course in 13th. “I thought the men’s team would be medal contenders and the guys all ran well,” said head coach Brian Stackhouse in an email. “All of RDC’s runners ran

consistently strong races and two had notable breakthrough performances. Lucas Plamondon (32:23) was just over two minutes faster than he’d been in previous races this Fall and Autumn Jackson (23:24) surprised us by placing second amongst the RDC women in her first ACAC race” Team points were accumulated by the top four runners from each team. RDC finished fourth in the men’s race with 56 points while NAIT secured third place with 52 points. Concordia University College in Edmonton won gold with 41 points while Lethbridge College got silver with 45 points. Edwin Kaitany (26:36) of Lethbridge College won the men’s race while his teammate Boaz Korir (27:12) was second. Hans Asfeldt (27:46) of Augustana was third. Other RDC finishers in the men’s race include: Austin Midkiff (32:09) in 26th, Jonathan Allan (35:23) in 46th, Jonathan Lam (35:38) in 50th and

Carter Weber (36:27) in 54th. Grande Prairie Regional College won the women’s race with 16 points and will likely head into nationals as the top ranked team in Canada.

RDC Kings open basketball season with perfect weekend, Queens swept by SAIT BY ADVOCATE STAFF CALGARY — The Red Deer College Kings opened their Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference men’s basketball title defence with a perfect 2-0 weekend. The Kings followed their home opening win on Friday with an 87-70 win at SAIT against the Trojans on Saturday. Denny Bankazo led RDC with 21 points, 11 rebounds and five assists, while JP Leblanc had 15 points and Brian Prenoslo and Matt Johnson had 13 points each. Nick Molina and Emmanuel Malu combined for 31 points for SAIT. Still, Kings head coach Clayton Pottinger was not completely satisfied with the victory. “SAIT is a good team with excellent players in every po-

sition. These were quality wins for our team,” he said in an email. “I think we still have to finish games a bit stronger and remain solid defensively.” It was a tough weekend for the RDC Queens under rookie head coach Ken King as they were swept by the Trojans, including falling 63-39 in Calgary on Saturday. Brenna Seymour was the top Queen with 10 rebounds and four assists, while Morgan Dool led RDC with 11 points and added six rebounds and three assists. RDC hosts Medicine Hat this weekend with the women tipping off at 6 p.m. on Friday and 1 p.m. on Saturday and the men at 8 and 3 p.m., respectively. ● The RDC Kings improved to 3-1 in men’s volleyball with a two-match sweep in Caronport, Sask., over the Briercrest Clippers, including a 3-0 (25-17, 25-17, 27-25) win on Saturday.

Anthony Finnigan was named player of the game with nine kills, seven digs and one block while Tim Finnigan had 19 kills, six digs and an ace. ● The RDC Queens fell 3-1 (27-25, 26-24, 22-25, 25-22) to the Briercrest Clippers in women’s volleyball in Caronport, Sask., on Saturday to split their weekend series. Alex Donaghy was the Queens player of the game with nine kills, 11 digs one ace and two blocks. “We were in this match the whole way, and had our chances to put them away,” said Queens head coach Talbot Walton in an email. “Our play got a little too uncertain at times and this lead to some poor decisions.” Volleyball is off this weekend with a bye but will raise their national championship banners on Nov. 7 when they host the Medicine Hat Rattlers in their home opener.

Good goaltending leads to offensive onslaught Kings 7 Huskies 2 PENHOLD — Generally in a blowout goaltending is not a major story line for the winning team. But on Saturday, Mike Salmon was critical to the Red Deer College Kings 7-2 win over the Keyano Huskies at the Penhold Regional Multiplex in Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference men’s hockey. The second year Red Deer goalie made 34 saves, many of them if the highlight reel variety, to keep the Kings in the game until they broke it wide open in the second period. In the end, the score was a laugher with Greg Lamoureux and Tyler Berkholtz both scoring twice for RDC while Shamus Graham, Blair Mulder and Alex Marcinew all added singles from the blue line. Kenny Murduff and Owen Sobchak replied for Keyano while Logan Stebnar allowed four goals on 20 shots before being replaced by Dustin Nikkel who allowed three goals on 15 shots over the final 28:25. “I thought we played to what I consider our identity, which is using our speed, pressuring the other team, but playing tough two and standing up for each other and finishing checks,” said RDC head coach Trevor Keeper. “Keyano is a tough team physically and we stood up to that challenge and answered the bell on the score sheet too.” Salmon was particularly strong as the Kings were outshot 36-35 overall and 26-22 over the final two periods. He made several big saves to shut the door on the Huskies while the Kings were clinging to 2-0 and 2-1 leads through the first half of the game. “Sammy did a really good job at stepping up and playing today, he made key saves and timely saves and gave us a chance to keep scoring too,” said Keeper. He gives the Kings a solid one-two

punch in net with the veteran Kraymer Barnstable in his fourth and likely last season of eligibility. Salmon missed the first few weeks of the season with a groin pull, but has come back looking as strong as ever, posting a 2-1-0 record, with a 2.34 goals against average, third in the ACAC and a .941 save percentage, first in the ACAC. No. 2 in both categories is Barnstable (3-3-1) who has a 2.26 G.A.A. and a 0.925 save percentage in seven games. But instead of their being an intense rivalry or competition between the two for playing time, the exact opposite is true. They both understand as long as they are healthy they will be splitting time in the crease. “We both are capable of starting for this team and because of that our practices are usually pretty competitive, but as soon as we get in the locker room we’re pretty good buds and we sit beside each other every day,” said Salmon. “It’s a really healthy competition between the two of us.” Though this is Salmon’s second year with the Kings, this is his fourth season playing for Keeper, having spent two year under the head coach while playing for the Red Deer Midget AAA Optimist Chiefs from 2007-09. If all goes well he should have another two years at least playing for Keeper. It was an easy sell job to get Salmon to commit to the Kings in their inaugural season last year. “After playing junior all over Western Canada, it’s kind of nice coming back home,” said Salmon, 22, who is in the business administration program. “Red Deer College has a lot of good courses to choose from ... and there’s also a lot of guys from Central Alberta who I’ve played with and played against and it’s nice to be familiar with the guys and the coaching staff right off the get go.” It is an enviable position for the Kings’ head coach to have a goalie he can lean on into the future with this potentially being Barnstable’s final year, he has one year of eligibility left,

MINOR HOCKEY ROUNDUP The Red Deer Northstar Chiefs, with Canon Whitbread making 17 saves and Jeremy Klessens and Jerryd Wold scoring power-play goals, earned a 3-3 draw with the visiting Rockyview Raiders in minor midget AAA hockey action Saturday. Justin Paarup had the other Northstar goal. The Chiefs outshot their guests 32-20. In another Saturday outing, the Red Deer Aero Equipment Chiefs dropped a 3-1 decision to the host Calgary Gold. Luke Pluto scored for Aero, while Riley Katchuik made 32 saves for the visitors, who were outshot 35-31. Major midget girls The Red Deer Sutter Fund Chiefs were edged twice during the weekend, 2-1 by the host St. Albert Slash and 2-1 by the Southeast Tigers at Vauxhall. Paige Grenier scored against the Slash, who fired 25 shots at Red Deer netminder Sarah Murray. Erynn Shantz made 16 saves for the hosts. Breanna Martin scored for the Chiefs at Vauxhall, where Bailey Knapp made 16 saves in a losing cause. Red Deer held a 43-18 advantage in shots. Midget AA The Red Deer Indy Graphics Chiefs racked up a pair of weekend wins to sustain their undefeated record. Tanner Zentner and Josh Bussard each potted a pair of goals as the Chiefs thumped the Bow Valley Timberwolves 7-1 Sunday. Mack Differenz, Ryan Morrell and Kody Knash also scored and Geordan Andrew stopped 23 shots as the winning goalie. Kirt Fortney scored twice in Saturday’s 6-4 defeat of the Calgary Stam-

peders. Differenz, Lane Sim, Devon Langelaar and Declan Johnson rounded out the Red Deer attack, while Justin Anderson made 23 saves. Major Bantam The Red Deer Rebels Black dropped a pair of one-sided weekend contests and the Rebels White came out on the short end of their lone game. Tristen Hato potted the lone Rebels Black goal in an 11-1 loss to visiting Leduc Saturday. Wyatt Argent made one save and Steven Arthur stopped 34 shots for the Rebels Black, who were outshot 46-22. The Rebels Black were thumped 13-2 by the visiting Calgary Northstars Sunday. Details were unavailable. In another Sunday game, the Red Deer Rebels White were 7-2 losers to the host Calgary Bisons, their goals coming off the sticks of Rylan Burns and Keaton Sawicki. Duncan Hughes made 33 saves for the visitors, who were outshot 40-20. Major bantam girls The Red Deer Sutter Funds Chiefs swept a weekend series from the Southeast Tigers at Vauxhall. The Chiefs prevailed 7-3 Sunday as Caleigh Meraw and Megan Benoit each scored twice and Taryn Hunt, Brooklyn Park and Shae Demale also connected. Mandi Fitzsimons made 18 saves for the Chiefs, who outshot their hosts 3921. The Chiefs mauled the Tigers 9-1 Saturday, getting four goals from Jade Bussard and singles courtesy of Benoit, Meraw, Demale, Shaelynne Bilodeau and Kira Weddell. Chantelle Sandquist stopped 12 shots for the winners, who directed 37 at the Tigers net.

Taveras was a teenager when he signed a free-agent deal with the Cardinals in 2008. Before this season, Taveras was ranked as the No. 3 overall prospect by MLB.com and Baseball America, and had a .321 average over six minor league seasons. He homered against the Giants’ Yusmeiro Petit in his major league debut on May 31.

Red Deer College Kings defenceman Joel Topping tries to get control of a bouncing puck in front of Keyano College Huckies goaltender Dustin Nikkel during ACAC game action at the Penhold Multiplex on Saturday. The Kings defeated the Huskies 7-2. but signs point to him graduating this year. “He’s very athletic, he’s a very strong goaltender,” said Keeper. “Sammy’s big attribute to me is how hard he competes in practice and it carries over to games. He works really hard to stop every puck in practice.” Still, it also helps when they get seven goals of support. Offence has been a bit of a struggle this season with only Riley Simpson consistently producing to this point. On Saturday they were firing on all cylinders. RDC took a 2-0 lead through the first period on power-play goals by Graham and Mulder. Keyano cut the lead to 2-1 on Murduff’s marker, half fanning on a shot that knuckled past Salmon at 8:48. But then the Kings completely took over.

Lamoureux scored his first goal at 9:39, then Marcinew made it 4-1 at 11:35 on a point shot that chased Stebner from the net. The Kings closed out the frame with Lamoureux’s second at 17:37 and Berholtz’s first goal at 18:52. Sobchak beat Salmon at 8:36 of the third period on the power play, finishing off a two-on-one, but Berkholtz closed out the scoring with his second at 15:43 on a goal that mirrored Sobchak’s. “Riley has such good composure that he finishes consistently, the other guys have the potential to do that too and it was good to see them break out today,” said Keeper. The Kings are off next weekend with the bye, and will return to action the following weekend with a home-andhome set with the SAIT Trojans. jaldrich@reddeeradvocate.com

Streb gets first PGA Tour win in playoff at McGladrey Classic BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. — Two items on Robert Streb’s bucket list are attending an Oklahoma-Texas football game and playing at Augusta National. He never could have guessed which would be the first one scratched off the list. Streb closed with a 7-under 63 on Sunday and won the McGladrey Classic with the most significant shot of his young career, an 8-iron to 4 feet for birdie on the second extra hole of a three-man playoff at Sea Island that helped secure a trip to the Masters next April. “One is easier to get to. I just haven’t done it yet,” Streb said with a smile. “Definitely thought I would have made that game by now.” Winning the McGladrey Classic for his first PGA Tour victory was no picnic. He opened the tournament with a duck-hook into a bush for double bogey

and spent the next two days worried about making the cut. He began the final round Sunday five shots out of the lead and made bogey from a fairway bunker on the first hole. Right when he was making a run, he three-putted for bogey on the 13th hole to fall four shots behind with only five holes to play. The rest was a blur, and then a long wait. Streb ran off four straight bogeys to finish at 14-under 266. He waited 90 minutes to see if it would stand, and then faced Brendon de Jonge and Will MacKenzie in a playoff. MacKenzie was eliminated on the first playoff hole with a bogey from the bunker. On the par-3 17th, where two hours earlier Streb had rolled in a 30-foot putt to tie for the lead, he hit 8-iron that never left the flag until it plopped down right behind the hole. “What can you do? He hit a great shot,” said de Jonge, who closed with a 65. “And as I said, it’s nice for him to have a birdie. It’s a good way to win the tournament.”

Earnhardt Jr gives Hendrick emotional victory MARTINSVILLE, Va. — Dale Earnhardt Jr. earned his fourth win of the season on Sunday at Martinsville Speedway in an emotional victory a week after he was eliminated from the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. Jeff Gordon was second, giving Hendrick Motorsports a 1-2 finish on the 10-year anniversary weekend of the fatal plane crash that killed 10 people on their way to the speedway. Lost on that day were team owner Rick Hendrick’s son, brother, twin nieces, the team general manger, head engine builder, a key sponsor representative, two Hendrick pilots and a pilot for Tony Stewart. “This means so much to all of us,” Earnhardt said. “I lost my daddy a long time ago and I know how hard that is. I can’t imagine losing the amount of people Rick lost. My heart goes out to him during this weekend. This honours them.” Gordon was the highest finishing Chase driver. Without a Chase driver in Victory Lane, no driver clinched an automatic berth in the Nov. 16 championship finale at Homestead. “That means so much to Hendrick Motorsports,” Gordon said. “That’s the best way you can possibly pay tribute to those that we lost 10 years ago. To have a 1-2 finish, that’s pretty awesome. I would have loved to have gotten that win to move on to Homestead, but this is certainly a great start for us.” Chase driver Ryan Newman was third, and Tony Stewart finished fourth. Chase drivers Joey Logano and Matt Kenseth were fifth and sixth. Running fifth, Stewart gambled and stayed on the track after the race was red-flagged with 10 laps left. Earnhardt and Gordon pitted for fresh tires, and that one final stop was just enough for the successful finish. “If we had to do that 100 times over, we’d do the same thing,” Stewart said. “We didn’t have anything to lose. It was worth the gamble. “This is as good as a win to me.” Other Chase driver results included: Denny Hamlin eighth, Carl Edwards 20th, Brad Keselowski 31st and Kevin Harvick 33rd. Harvick crashed just past the halfway point when he had contact with

Aldo beats Mendes in UFC 179 to keep title

Keselowski just climbed out of a similar hole a week ago — he had to win at Talladega to advance into this round of the Chase. “It’s been tough but it builds character and makes us stronger,” Keselowski said. “With this format, we’re by no means out.” Another accident led to a second red flag with 10 laps left that lasted for nearly 10 minutes. Earnhardt and Gordon lined up 1-2 and instantly took off

for pit road when the action resumed. Stewart stayed out, but was passed by Earnhardt for the lead with four laps remaining. Earnhardt got the win he needed a week late and is simply running for trophies down the stretch instead of a championship. “We tried to win here so many years,” he said. “This place is so special to me. I wanted to win here so bad. We’ve brought some good cars.”

Kenseth following a restart. It made for a mixed day for Stewart-Haas Racing: Team co-owner Stewart scored his first top-five finish since March, but Harvick’s championship chances took a huge hit. Harvick had to take his car to the garage, where crew members from all of SHR’s teams worked furiously to repair the damage and get him back on the track. Even competition director Greg Zipadelli was working on the Chevrolet, which received significant repairs before Harvick returned to the race, down 40 laps. “Yeah, he won’t win this championship,” Harvick said of Kenseth. “If we don’t, he won’t.” Added Harvick crew chief Rodney Childers: “He just flat-out wrecked us. It’s a bad decision on his part, for sure.” Kenseth called the race “one of the lowlights of my career,” and said he understood Harvick’s frustration. “I don’t blame him for feeling like that, to be honest with you. It was a mistake,” Kenseth said. “He was an innocent bystander, at the wrong place at the wrong time. I totally understand how he feels, I totally understand why he would say that, I totally get it. “He knows it’s a mistake, too, but that doesn’t really help him. I don’t blame him. He got taken out of the race for being at the wrong place at the wrong time.” Harvick likely needs to win at either Texas Motor Speedway next week or Phoenix International Raceway — where he’s a five-time winner — to advance to the finale. Same for Keselowski, who overcame an early speeding penalty to be in the hunt until a mechanical problem in his Ford caused a multi-car crash that involved Edwards with 64 laps left and forced a red flag.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil — Brazilian Jose Aldo beat American Chad Mendes by unanimous decision to successfully defend his featherweight title in UFC 179 at Maracanazinho arena early Sunday. With the victory, Aldo remained the only champion the division has known and extended his winning streak to 15, one short of Anderson Silva’s record of 16 straight victories from 2006 to 2012. The highly anticipated mixed martial arts fight was a rematch of their encounter in Rio de Janeiro in 2012. Aldo knocked out Mendes with a powerful knee strike to his face with a second left in the first round of that match. Mendes extended the fight to the fifth round this time but still couldn’t come up with the victory. All three judges scored it 49-46. In the co-main, American Phil Davis (13-2), a former NCAA wrestling national champion, beat Brazilian Glover Teixeira (22-4) by unanimous decision to earn his first shot at challenging light heavyweight champion Jon Jones. Teixeira lost to Jones in his previous fight. In other main card fights, Beneil Dariush of Iran beat Brazilian Diego Ferreira in a unanimous decision in the lightweight division, and Darren Elkins of the United States edged Brazilian Lucas Martins with a split decision in the featherweight division.

GRAHAM Edith 1934 - 2014 Mrs. Edith Mary Graham (nee Morgan) of Red Deer, Alberta, died at her home on Thursday, October 23, 2014 at the age of 80 Years. Edith grew up in Swift Current, Saskatchewan, where her parents, Dave and Peg, worked at the Federal Department of Agriculture Research Station. Edith taught kindergarten first with the Fairview Kindergarten Society and then with the Red Deer School District. She was uncredentialed but unparalleled - so many children and teachers got a real good start from Edith. Some of those students still remember her fondly. She was a generous, gracious and a brilliant parent - protective and encouraging, opinionated, creative, mischievous and smart. Edith was a hub of any community she belonged to. Relationships were important to her and she loved her family and friends in word and deed. She was a good woman to have in your corner. You might have thought of her as quiet and shy but she would not roll over in the face of adversity. She was also a relentless and unrepentant punster. We will miss her very much. Edith will be lovingly remembered by her daughter Erin and son Shawn; daughter -in-law Wendy and her grandson and granddaughter -in-law, Jeff and Cendra and their two sons, Dominick and Kash. She will also be missed by her sister Gwladys (Ron) and her brother Tom (Marilyn) as well as numerous nieces, nephews and eighty years of friends and neighbors. Edith was predeceased by her son, John Scott in 1961, her husband, John Graham in 2005, her parents, David and Margaret and two older brothers, Jim and Ed. A Celebration of Edith’s Life will be held at Parkland Funeral Home and Crematorium, 6287 - 67 A Street (Taylor Drive), Red Deer, Alberta on Wednesday, October 29, 2014 at 1:00 p.m. If desired, Memorial Donations in Edith’s honor may be made directly to the Canadian Diabetes Association, 5105 48 Street, Red Deer, Alberta, T4N 1S9 or at www.diabetes.ca Condolences may be sent or viewed at www.parklandfuneralhome.com. Arrangements in care of Ashley Paton, Funeral Director at PARKLAND FUNERAL HOME AND CREMATORIUM, 6287 - 67 A Street (Taylor Drive), Red Deer. 403.340.4040.

NEW YORK — The gulf between politicians and scientists over Ebola widened on Sunday as the nation’s top infectious-disease expert warned that the mandatory, 21-day quarantining of medical workers returning from West Africa is unnecessary and could discourage volunteers from travelling to the danger zone. “The best way to protect us is to stop the epidemic in Africa, and we need those health care workers, so we do not want to put them in a position where it makes it very, very uncomfortable for them to even volunteer to go,” said Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. Meanwhile, Kaci Hickox, the first nurse forcibly quarantined in New Jersey under the state’s new policy, said in a telephone interview with CNN that her isolation at a hospital was “inhumane,” adding: “We have to be very careful about letting politicians make health decisions.” Saying the federal health guidelines are inadequate, the governors of New York and New Jersey announced a mandatory quarantine program Friday for medical workers and other arriving airline passengers who have had contact with Ebola victims in West Africa, and Illinois soon followed suit. Twenty-one days is the incubation period for Ebola. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie on Sunday defended quarantining as necessary to protect the public and predicted it “will become a national policy sooner rather than later.” “I don’t believe when you’re dealing with something as serious as this that we can count on a voluntary system,” said Christie, who is expected to run for the Republican nomination for president in 2016. He added: “I absolutely have no second thoughts about it.” Fauci made the rounds on five major Sunday morning talk shows to argue that policy should be driven by science — and that science says people with the virus are not contagious until symptoms appear. And even then, infection requires direct contact with bodily fluids. He said that close monitoring of medical workers for symptoms is sufficient, and warned that forcibly separating them from others, or quarantining them, for three weeks could cripple the fight against the outbreak in West Africa — an argument that humanitarian medical organizations have also made. “If we don’t have our people volunteering to go over there, then you’re going to have other countries that are not going to do it and then the epidemic will continue to roar,” Fauci said.

In this Aug. 7, 2014 photo provided by the Spanish Defense Ministry, aid workers and doctors transfer Miguel Pajares, a Spanish priest who was infected with the Ebola virus while working in Liberia, from a plane to an ambulance as he leaves the Torrejon de Ardoz military airbase, near Madrid, Spain. The gulf between politicians and scientists over Ebola widened as a top infectiousdisease expert warned that the mandatory, 21-day quarantining of medical workers returning from West Africa is unnecessary and could discourage volunteers from travelling to the danger zone. Christie, travelling the country as head of the Republican Governors Association, said he was not worried that quarantining might discourage volunteers. Other than saying last week that those under quarantine could be confined to their homes or medical facilities, Christie and New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo have given no details on how the measure would be enforced and what would happen to those who refused to co-operate. But Cuomo, who is up for re-election next week, said the order is legally enforceable, and expressed confidence that medical professionals would go along. Earlier this month, four members of a family in Texas that Ebola victim Thomas Eric Duncan stayed with before he died were confined to their home under armed guard after failing to comply with a request not to leave their apartment. Also, 75 Dallas hospital workers were asked to sign legally binding documents in which they agreed not go to public places or use mass transit. The New York-area quarantine measures were announced after Dr. Craig Spencer returned to New York City from treating Ebola victims in Guinea for Doctors Without Borders and was admitted to Bellevue Hospital Center last Thursday to be treated for Ebola. In the week after his return, he rode the subway, went bowling and ate at a restaurant.

Hospital officials did not immediately update his condition Sunday but said a day earlier that he was experiencing gastrointestinal symptoms and “entering the next phase of his illness.” Hickox, the quarantined nurse who just returned from Sierra Leone, said she had no symptoms at all and tested negative for Ebola in a preliminary evaluation. “It’s just a slippery slope, not a sound public health decision,” she said of the quarantine policy. “I want to be treated with compassion and humanity, and don’t feel I’ve been treated that way.” Hickox has access to a computer, her cellphone, magazines and newspapers and has been allowed to have takeout food, New Jersey Health Department officials said. Samantha Power, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations who is on a trip to West Africa, said returning U.S. health care workers should be “treated like conquering heroes and not stigmatized for the tremendous work that they have done.” In other developments, Florida Gov. Rick Scott ordered twice-daily monitoring for 21 days of anyone returning from the Ebola-stricken areas. The World Health Organization said more than 10,000 people have been infected with Ebola in the outbreak that came to light last March, and nearly half of them have died, mostly in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia.

MURSITPINAR, Turkey — A Syrian activist group said Sunday that the death toll in 40 days of fighting in and around the northern Syrian border town of Kobani has reached 815, as Kurdish fighters battled Muslim militants for a hill west of the town. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the death toll includes 21 Kurdish civilians and 302 fighters with the main Kurdish force known as the Peoples Protection Units, or YPG. It said 481 fighters with the Islamic State group have been killed since the battles began. IS fighters launched a wide offensive on Kobani in mid-September cap-

turing dozens of Kurdish villages and entering parts of the town. The attack has displaced more than 200,000 people who crossed for safety in Turkey. On Saturday, IS launched an attack on a Kurdish-held neighbourhood in Kobani without succeeding in advancing, the Observatory said. It added that seven IS fighters were killed as well as several YPG fighters. An Associated Press reporter on the Turkish side of the border said occasional mortar fire could be heard in the centre and west of the town as well as occasional gunfire. At least one airstrike was carried out by the U.S.-led coalition. The U.S. Central Command said in a statement that five airstrikes near Kobani destroyed seven IS vehicles

and an IS building. It said the five airstrikes were conducted on Saturday and Sunday. Last week, the U.S. Central Command said that its forces conducted more than 135 airstrikes against the militants in and around Kobani, killing hundreds of IS fighters. Idriss Nassan, a Kurdish official from Kobani, said the fighting concentrated Sunday on the Izaa hill west, of the town. That area is close to the strategic Tel Shair hill, which overlooks parts of the town. Kurdish fighters recently regained control of the Tel Shair hill. “The units (YPG) are advancing slowly on the eastern and southern fronts,” Nassan said. “The situation is relatively calm compared with yesterday.”

Pro-Western parties seen leading Ukraine parliamentary vote in major political earthquake BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KIEV, Ukraine — Ukrainians overwhelmingly voted in several pro-Western parties in a landmark parliamentary election Sunday, another nudge in the former Soviet nation’s drift away from Russia. Two exit polls released as voting closed indicated that President Petro Poroshenko’s party will secure a narrow win in the parliamentary election, falling substantially short of an outright majority. Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk’s Popular Front followed closely. Although they lead rival parties, Poroshenko and Yatsenyuk share pro-Western postures and have campaigned on reform agendas aimed at pulling Ukraine back from the brink of economic ruin. The parties are expected to join forces with similarly reform-oriented groups to form a broad pro-European coalition. Talking to supporters at his party headquarters, a visibly ebullient Poroshenko said coalition talks will start Monday and will last no longer than 10 days. Almost three million people were unable to vote in eastern regions still gripped with unrest as government troops continue to wage almost daily battle against pro-Russian separatists. The vote on Sunday will substantially overhaul a legislature once dominated by loyalists of ousted former president Viktor Yanukovych. “We are seeing a triumph of proEuropean forces and a collapse among pro-Russian parties,” said Mikhailo Mischenko, an analyst with the Razumkov Center think-tank . “Ukrainian people see their future in Europe, and this is something that all Ukrainians politicians will have to account for.” The Rating Group Ukraine exit poll said the Poroshenko Bloc won 22.2 per cent of the votes and that Popular Front came second at 21.8 per cent. Another exit poll, organized by three Ukrainian research groups, saw the Poroshenko Bloc with 23 per cent of the vote and Popular Front in second place at 21.3 per cent. A recently formed pro-European party based in

western Ukraine, Samopomich, was seen in third with around 14 per cent of the vote. In an address published on the president’s website, Poroshenko said the authorities had received an unprecedented show of support from the Ukrainian people. “A constitutional majority — more than three-fourths of voter taking part in the election — have powerfully and irreversibly supported a European course for Ukraine,” he said. “Any delay in reform will spell a certain death. So I expect the quick formation of a new coalition.” Other groups that look likely to have entered parliament include firebrand populist Oleh Lyashko’s Radical Party, the nationalist Svoboda party and the Fatherland Party of former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko. While around 36 million people were registered to vote, no voting was held on the Crimean Peninsula, which was annexed by Russia in March, or in parts of Ukraine’s easternmost regions of Donetsk and Luhansk, where shelling remains a daily constant. The fight against armed separatists on the border with Russia has claimed the lives of more than 3,600 people. Yanukovych was overthrown after a wave of sometimes violent street protests sparked by his snap decision to put ties with the European Union on hold in favour of deepening trade relations with Russia. The outgoing parliament was previously largely controlled by his Party of Regions, which had its main base of support in the heavily Russian-speaking industrial east. Some supporters of the Party of Regions were viewed as likely to back the Opposition Bloc party, which exit polls have shown with almost 8 per cent of the vote, well above the 5 per cent threshold needed to enter parliament. Tamara Shupa, a 62-year old retiree in Kyiv, the capital, said she hoped incoming lawmakers would put an end to conflict in the east. “We are very tired of the war,” Shupa said at a polling station. “To bring about change, we need peace.” Andrei Voitenko, a 40-year old

A woman examines a list of candidates during parliament elections in a polling station in Volnovakha, a village on the front line of fighting between Ukrainian government forces and rebels, eastern Ukraine, Sunday. Ukraine headed to the polls Sunday to elect a new parliament, overhauling a legislature tainted by its association with ousted President Viktor Yanukovych. teacher casting his ballot at a school in Kyiv, said a new parliament would have to work toward repaying the high price paid by his fellow Ukrainians. “We are overhauling the government because Ukraine and Ukrainians have made a European choice,” Voitenko said. “We need a new parliament to make a European future. We have drawn a line under our Soviet past.” The public mood has turned sharply against the leadership in Moscow over what is widely seen as its direct role in fomenting separatist unrest. “Russia cannot interfere with Ukraine. We will become part of Europe,” said 30-year old economist Anton Rushailo, after voting in Kyiv. “Sooner or later, we will join NATO, and today we are taking an important

step in that direction.” Igor Seleznev, a retired 65-year old economist, said he cast his ballot for Opposition Bloc as he believed it was the only party willing to resist the emerging pro-reform consensus. “For now, I see only change for the worse. Standard of life is getting worse, we are at war with Russia and there is economic chaos,” Seleznev said. In Volnovakha, a government-controlled town 60 kilometres (38 miles) south of the main rebel-held city of Donetsk, voting took place under heavy security. “Nobody wants what is going on now,” said Nadezhda Eshtokina, a retiree in Volnovakha. “I think everything will be good with time, and our grandchildren will live well and live like Europeans.”

Suspect in sheriff shootings avoided scrutiny Rousseff has narrow lead despite criminal, immigration history BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SAN DIEGO — Luis Enrique Monroy-Bracamonte had a lot to hide. He was living in the U.S. illegally even though he had been convicted in Arizona for selling drugs and twice deported to Mexico. His background would have almost certainly flagged him to be expelled from the country again, but he managed to stay under the radar until his arrest Friday on suspicion of murder, attempted murder and carjacking in the deaths of two sheriff’s deputies during a shooting rampage in Northern California. More than 2 million deportations have occurred under the watch of President Barack Obama, whose administration has laid out three priorities for people to be expelled from the U.S.: Anyone who poses a public safety threat; anyone with a serious immigration history; and recent border crossers. Monroy-Bracamonte would appear to have been a prime candidate on the first two counts. How he escaped detection was a mystery on Sunday. The suspected shooter told investigators that he was 34-year-old Marcelo Marquez of Salt Lake City, but his fingerprints matched biometric records of Monroy-Bracamonte in a federal database, said U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokeswoman Virginia Kice. He was first removed from the country in 1997 after a conviction for possession of drugs for sale in Arizona, then arrested and repatriated

to Mexico again in 2001. Sacramento County Sheriff Scott Jones told The Sacramento Bee on Sunday that he may have lived under multiple identities and that he may have had troubles with the law under another name. “We’re not convinced we have a full picture of his identity,” Jones told the newspaper. “Immigration has come up with one identity. We are not entirely convinced that is his only identity.” Mauro Marquez, his father-in-law, told the Los Angeles Times that he always knew him as Luis Monroy and said his son-in-law worked as a house painter. He said Monroy-Bracamonte and his daughter moved to Utah a couple of years after marrying about 14 years ago in Arizona. Marquez told the newspaper that and he and his wife spent a couple days around Christmas with them each year at their home in West Valley, a suburb of Salt Lake City. Janelle Marquez Monroy, 38, was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and carjacking after the attack on Friday that left two deputies dead and a sheriff’s deputy and the carjacking victim wounded. A search of Utah court records for Marcelo Marquez shows a history of about 10 tickets and misdemeanour traffic offences between 2003 and 2009, which typically wouldn’t trigger a fingerprint check against immigration records. The records list one speeding ticket in 2009 and three small claims filings attempting to collect outstanding debts.

Monroy-Bracamonte appears to have avoided work for government contractors or other employers that might have exposed him to extra scrutiny. Krista Sorenson of Salt Lake City said Monroy-Bracamonte and his brother mowed her lawn and fixed her sprinklers about four years ago, describing them as “just super nice, decent hard-working, trying to figure out how to make a living.” They distributed handbills that said Brothers Landscaping. Hector Monroy told KXTV in Sacramento that his brother assumed another name because “he got into some kind of trouble.” He said he gave his brother $400 early last week and, under threat, returned a bag of his brother’s weapons that he had hid. Monroy said his brother called throughout the week to demand more money and on Friday afternoon to say he was “in the woods” after killing a police officer and that he needed to be picked up. Monroy said his brother hung up when he refused and that he called his brother again, but he didn’t pick up the phone. Sacramento County sheriff’s Deputy Danny Oliver, 47, was shot in the forehead with an assault rifle at close range as he checked out a suspicious car in a motel parking lot. Two deputies who approached the pickup while it was parked alongside a road were shot with an AR-15-type assault weapon, police said. Homicide Detective Michael David Davis Jr., 42, died at a hospital.

Three fighting for lives after Seattle-area school shooting BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS MARYSVILLE, Wash. — Three students fought for their lives in Seattlearea hospitals Sunday, days after being shot in the head during an attack at a high school on Washington state’s Puget Sound. The close-knit community, meanwhile, on the nearby Tulalip Indian reservation struggled with the news that the shooter was a popular teenager from one of their more well-known families. A tribal guidance counsellor said no one knows what prompted 14-yearold Jaylen Fryberg to walk into a busy school lunchroom and open fire Friday. “We can’t answer that question,” said Matt Remle, who has an office at Marysville-Pilchuck High School. “But we try to make sense of the senselessness.”

Churches have held vigils since the attack that killed one student and wounded four others, including two of Fryberg’s cousins, and gatherings were planned Sunday afternoon in the high school gym and at a tribal centre. In the nearby community of Oso, where a mudslide this spring killed dozens, people planned to gather to write condolence letters and cards. Of the wounded students, only 14-year-old Nate Hatch showed improvement, though he remained in serious condition in intensive care at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. Fifteen-year-old Andrew Fryberg remained in critical condition in intensive care. Both are cousins of Jaylen Fryberg. Meanwhile, 14-year-olds Shaylee Chuckulnaskit and Gia Soriano remained in critical condition in intensive care at Providence Regional Medical Center Everett. The girl killed in the shooting hasn’t

been officially identified. Fryberg died in the attack, after a first-year teacher intervened. It’s unclear if he intentionally killed himself or if the gun went off in a struggle with teacher Megan Silberberger. The Snohomish County medical examiner’s office said it was unlikely to have autopsy results before Monday. Remele said he knew Fryberg and the other students well. They all were “really happy, smiling kids,” Remle said. “They were a polite group. A lot of the kids from the freshman class were close-knit. Loving.” “These were not kids who were isolated,” he said. “They had some amazing families, and have amazing families.” These factors make the shooting that much more difficult to deal with, “Maybe it would be easier if we knew the answer,” Remle said. “But we may never know.”

with in Brazil presidential race BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil — Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff leads opposition contender Aecio Neves 51to-49 per cent with 96.5 per cent of the vote counted in Sunday’s presidential election. Still, there are too many uncounted votes for a winner to be declared, according to the official count from the top electoral court in the world’s fifthlargest nation. Rousseff is counting on Brazilians’ gratefulness for a decade of progress to overcome concerns about a sluggish economy as the leftist leader seeks re-election on Sunday after a bitter, unpredictable campaign. The choice between Rousseff and Neves has split Brazilians into two camps — those who think only the president will continue to protect the poor and advance social inclusion versus those who are certain that only the contender’s market-friendly economic policies can see Brazil return to solid growth. The Workers’ Party’s 12 years in power have seen a profound transformation in Brazil, as it expanded social welfare programs to help lift millions of people from poverty and into the middle class. But four straight years of weak economic growth under Rousseff, with an economy that’s now in a technical recession, has some worried those gains are under threat. “Brazilians want it all. They are worried about the economy being sluggish and stagnant but they want to preserve social gains that have been made,” said Michael Shifter, president of the Washington-based Inter-American Dialogue. “The question is which candidate is best equipped to deliver both of those.” Rousseff and Neves have fought bitterly to convince voters that they can deliver on both growth and social advances. This year’s campaign is widely considered the most acrimonious since Brazil’s return to democracy in 1985, a battle between the only two parties to have held the presidency since 1995. Neves has hammered at Rousseff over a widening kickback scandal at state-run oil company Petrobras, with an informant telling investigators that the Workers’ Party directly benefited from the scheme.
