Teck earns international accolade again BY LIZ BEVAN Times Staff

For the third year in a row, Teck Resources have been internationally recognized for its efforts in sustainability. The company earned the highest spot for any mining operation

on the Global 100 Most Sustainable Corporations list, put together by Corporate Knights, an investment research and media company. Companies around the world are judged on 12 different factors to determine a ranking and right here in Trail, Teck is doing all it can to keep the

international company on the list. “Teck scored well on our performance in a number of areas such as water, energy, carbon productivity and safety performance,” said Catherine Adair, community relations leader at Teck Trail Operations. See SAFETY, Page 3

There's no getting around the fact that tree stumps look less appealing than a healthy forest. But Trail made a lot of green from Violin Lake logs last year, so it's unlikely the city will cut future financial gain through forestry. Sustainability is key for the local industry and a must for the family-owned business that has logged the area for more than 60 years. “The timber that is harvested supports many hundreds of direct and indirect jobs in our communities,” says Mark Semeniuk, ATCO Wood Product's chief operating officer. “And ultimately becomes a myriad of products that can be found in our homes and in lumber stores around the world.” Recognizing that everyday decisions directly affect the health and future of forests, ATCO has been certified by the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) since 2006. The Fruitvale-based company remains committed to environmental stewardship and responsible forestry on both crown and private lands– because after all, they also live, work and play here. With aggressive and successful silviculture, otherwise known as sustainable forestry management, the city lands will support a healthy stand of trees in 30 years, much like the reforested hectares that ATCO logged in the early 2000s. While a newly harvested site looks less appealing than a healthy green forest, Semeniuk maintains that stage is a necessary part of the renewal process. “We are proud of our efforts to minimize the negative aspects of the harvesting process,” he said. “And the ultimate results of a healthy, diverse new forest only a few years after harvest.” The company was recently certified for another five years under the voluntary SFI program, which uses guiding principles of sustainable forestry to enhance the link between healthy forests, responsible purchasing and sustainable communities. Every five years SFI standards are revised to update forest research data and to address emerging issues such as conservation of specific species, water protection and the minimization of chemical use.

Human rights complaint to be heard

THE CANADIAN PRESS CASTLEGAR - The B.C. Human Rights Tribunal will hear a complaint made by a former Castlegar pulp mill employee who says she and other female supervisors were denied equal pay and promotions. Adrienne McKellar said she rose to a senior position as human resources advisor in a job previously held by a man though his title was human resources superintendent. Despite performing identical duties as the man who retired, McKellar said she was paid $35,000 less per year at the mill operated by Zellstoff Celgar Ltd. McKellar said she complained to her supervisor and to the mill’s parent company, Mercer International Inc., which agreed to launch an investigation. The investigator found no proof of discrimination and McKellar was fired soon after in June 2012. “She was fired because she had the courage to complain that sex discrimination was going on in that company,” said her lawyer Lindsay Lyster. Three other female supervisors are named in the complaint and also claim they faced discrimination based on gender. Susan Meredith said she was denied a promotion in favour of a man with less experience. Christine Galer resigned because she allegedly received less pay and vacation time than subordinate male colleagues, and Diane Perehudoff was allegedly paid $10,000 less a year than a man with less experience. The mill previously sought to have the complaint dismissed, saying each of the women made substantially different allegations, but the tribunal decided there were enough similarities for the complaint to proceed. A date for a hearing has not been set. The tribunal did not make a decision about the merit of the complaint and the allegations have not been proven. In its response to the complaint, Zellstoff Celgar denied that discrimination occurred.

Safety performance a highlight for 2014 FROM PAGE 1 In the safety category, 2014 was a big year at the smelter. “Safety is always our first priority,” said Adair. “In 2014, we achieved our best safety performance for recordable injuries in the past eight years. In addition, we had zero lost time injuries during our maintenance shutdown this fall with over 700 contractors on site.” Teck also excelled in the energy sector and in Trail, the Waneta hydroelectric dam provides the smelter with clean and renewable energy. “We are pleased to be the top-ranked mining company worldwide and the second-ranked Canadian company on this year’s (list),” said Adair, adding that the company is continually working to improve on operations wherever they can. “We recognize we have more work to do too, but this sustainability recognition confirms that we are moving in the right direction.”

Logged area to be replanted this spring FROM PAGE 1 Biodiversity and sustainability has long been part of ATCO’s practices, noted Semeniuk. “Forestry activities that local mills conduct, including ATCO, are important pieces of the social and economic health of our region,” he continued. “As such ATCO has a vested interest in long term health and sustainability.” While the SFI certification only applies to Crown land, the company incorporates the same standards of practise to City of Trail private lands. Forest planning and harvest management practices include training to identify potential species at risk, Semeniuk said. Rather than replanting only one or two species on City of Trail property, ATCO plans to plant six varietals, including Douglas Fir,

Englemann Spruce, Western Red Cedar, and Western White Pine. “This will allow for a vibrant new forest consisting of the “Kootenay Mix” of species that has historically grown on these lands,” he added. By the end of the current logging project, up to 75-hectares of land will be clear cut logged, said Gus Young, ATCO’s woodlands manager. “We have left wildlife tree patches (reserve areas) throughout these clear cut areas,” he explained. “We also plan to do a light selective cut on another 15 to 20 hectares.” Keeping with SFI principles of prompt reforestation, most of the logged areas are slated to be replanted with multiple conifer species in May, he added. The SFI is a non-profit

organization, governed by a board of directors, that covers 100 million hectares from Canada’s boreal forest to south of the international border. Total revenue from Violin Lake logging by the end of 2014 was $735,000 said

Provincial

MP urges feds to stop stalling on First Nations treaty deals By Anna Killen Terrace Standard

Skeena-Bulkley Valley NDP MP Nathan Cullen says he was “surprised and somewhat shocked” to learn Kitselas and Kitsumkalum have been waiting nearly two years for the government to sign off on the nations’ agreements in principle (AIP) so that they can move on to the next step in treaty negotiations. Cullen, also his party’s finance critic, said the holdup is indicative of a government that is disconnected from the moves that need to happen on the ground in order for resource negotiations with First Nations to move forward. “It was the government who agreed and negotiated this with the Kitselas (and Kitsumkalum) people ...

Orthodontist

What is an Orthodontist?

An Orthodontist is a Dentist who has taken an additional 2-3 years of full time training in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics (facial growth & development) at an accredited University. As an Orthodontic Specialist, they focus their practice 100% on this area rather than also performing other Dental procedures such as fillings, crowns, implants, and cleanings. Orthodontists have a wealth of knowledge and experience in assessing the teeth, jaws, face and bite. They can detect muscle imbalances, breathing issues, and jaw joint concerns. For each individual, they determine whether Orthodontic/Orthopedic treatment would be beneficial, the most ideal time to start, and provide customized treatment options. These may include Braces, Invisalign, Orthopedic appliances, or Expanders. The ideal time for children to be first seen is around age 7, but Orthodontics can be beneficial at any age. Orthodontists work together with your General Dentist, Hygienist, and sometimes other Dental Specialists to make your (or your child’s) smile, bite, and dental health the best it can be. We are passionate about our role in improving smiles and enhancing lives. No referral is needed.

and good faith and you make everybody wait for two years before you act, it shows that this isn’t a priority and that they just don’t get it,” said Cullen, of the federal Conservative government. “It’s a political problem but more importantly, it’s an economic problem.” Kitselas and Kitsumkalum negotiators signed off on AIPs in January of 2013. By the spring, both AIPs were approved through votes by Kitselas and Kitsumkalum members, with the understanding B.C. and Canada would soon follow. Last year, the province indicated it had approved the AIP and was ready for an official signing ceremony whenever the federal government was, but the federal government has not yet made an official commitment to a formal signing, with the federal aboriginal affairs ministry indicating late last year that the AIPs were still under review. Cullen said that after learning of the situation from Kitselas, he moved to meet with the minister to find out what the holdup is but noted he’s yet to receive a satisfying answer. “Usually once an agreement like this gets an approval, it’s relatively quick,” said Cullen Friday, Jan. 23. “Really I’m at a loss (as to why it hasn’t been finalized yet).” He continued, “it’s like going to go buy a car and you negotiate the price and then the dealership goes away for two years – are you going to stick around waiting for them? If you’ve agreed on the price and everybody’s said so, what’s the problem? And that’s what’s confusing.” There had been some chatter in the past that overlapping land claims issues between the Kitselas and Kitsumkalum nations and the Gitxsan could be contributing to the delay, but Cullen said he brought up the overlapping claims with the minister and that did not seem to be an issue on the federal government’s part. “First Nations are just so not a priority for the government and they just can’t seem to make the intellectual link between First Nations and the resource economy. It’s the Ottawa bubble again,” he said. Cullen said that this file is going to be on his agenda when he returns to Ottawa when Parliament resumes this week and he will be putting pressure on the government to finalize the AIPs. “Let’s get this done, or why not? What can 2.83 x5” we do to bring certainty,” he said. MIR CENTRE FOR PEACE LECTURE SERIES

Penticton

Hockey associations investigating fight between parents in stands Penticton Western News Both the Penticton and Salmon Arm minor hockey associations are investigating a fight that occurred between parents at a game on Jan. 17 Mounties responded to a report of an altercation at the Sicamous and District Recreation Centre, where a game was being played between Salmon Arm and Penticton midget Tier 2 teams. “Two people in the stands had a disagreement over a penalty call by a referee,” said Sicamous RCMP Sgt. Scott West. “This verbal dispute led to a physical confrontation in which some punches were thrown.” West said the parties involved claimed it was a consensual fight. “Whether or not it’s a consensual fight, you can stand to be charged with causing a disturbance and activities such as that won’t be tolerated in our public venues,” West added. Penticton Minor Hockey Association acting president Val Fulton said she and her counterpart in Salmon Arm learned of the incident Monday and are conducting a joint investigation. “If we find that one of the parents that was involved instigated and caused the issue, then we’d

have to look at a disciplinary action,” Fulton said. Salmon Arm Minor Hockey Association president Tim Giandomenico said the incident in the stands followed one on the ice where a Salmon Arm player was knocked down, and the Penticton player responsible was thrown out of the game. He said the Salmon Arm player has since been to the doctor and is OK. “It’s not like he can’t play any more or anything, but it was a questionable hit — enough of a hit that the official chose to toss the offending player from Penticton,” said Giandomenico. He noted it’s his association’s practice to meet with parents at the beginning of the season to explain what behaviour is acceptable and what is not. “It is important to know we do take this very seriously,” said Giandomenico. “As president, that’s something that’s really important to me, our association’s reputation. And that’s why we’re probably the only association in B.C., if not Canada, that actually sits down with every parent at the beginning of the season and explains what our philosophy is on that,” he added.

Chamber backs program to encourage U.S. tourists to shop in Canada

Abbotsford News The Abbotsford chamber of commerce has written to federal finance minister Joe Oliver supporting a proposal to create a pilot project for a Road Travel Rebate Program (Road TRIP) as part of the 2015 federal budget. The proposed tax rebate would encourage U.S. tourists to shop in Canada by allowing them to “take 5.”

American visitors travelling into and out of Canada through a land border crossing would be eligible for a rebate of 5 per cent (equal to the GST) on purchases made during their trip. Applications for this rebate would be available at participating Canadian duty free stores, located at land border crossings across the country. The rebate could then be spent at each cross-

National Parliament resumes

Five things to know THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA - The House of Commons resumed Monday following a five-week break and now enters its last scheduled sitting before the fixed federal election date next October. Here are five things you should know: - It’s all about the economy and Finance Minister Joe Oliver insists he’s staying the government course, notwithstanding plunging international oil prices that have blown a multibillion-dollar hole in federal revenues and delayed the delivery of the 2015-16 budget until at least April, after the fiscal year-end. New Democrats and Liberals believe they’ve found a fresh crack in the Conservatives’ economic armour and spent most of the first question period Monday challenging the government’s fiscal management. - Conservative House leader Peter Van Loan framed the spring sitting of the Commons with an address to reporters that mentioned taxes seven times and “strong” leadership six times. Conservative tax-cutters in a dangerous world, backed by new anti-terror laws and more tough-on-crime bills, is the campaigntested government brand. - NDP Leader Tom Mulcair’s first three questions in the House revolved around the Canadian military being drawn into a ground war in Iraq. Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau also explored the subject during his initial round of questions. A debate over extending Canada’s six-month mission against the Islamic State - and defining Canada’s military role - appears likely to be a dominant theme this spring. - New Democrats are calling for an economic “reality check” from the government to summarize the current state of the economy in light of the decision to delay the budget. The Conservatives used a similar demand for “report cards” from the Liberals during the 2009 global financial crisis to stage a series of campaign-style town hall meetings the Liberals soon came to regret. - The government is promising new anti-terrorism legislation later this week in response to last fall’s deadly domestic attacks on soldiers in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Que., and Ottawa. Civil libertarians may be concerned about the impact of new laws on the right to free speech and dissent, but in Parliament this was the dog that didn’t bark Monday, with nary an opposition probe. “Of course one of the most important things is to protect Canadians,” Mulcair told reporters after question period. “We’re going to wait and see what is actually in the bill.”

Changes pondered for northern food subsidy THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA - It appears the Conservative government is open to the idea of changing the way it tries to offset the high cost of food in the North. The department that oversees the beleaguered Nutrition North program has posted a notice of proposed procurement, asking for someone to come up with different ways of providing northerners with the federal food subsidy. “The Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development has a requirement to develop subsidy models and support an engagement with communities for the Nutrition North Canada Program in 2015-16,” it says. The notice, posted Monday, did not elaborate on the nature of any possible changes to Nutrition North. Aboriginal Affairs Minister Bernard Valcourt’s office did not answer specific questions about the notice. Instead, spokeswoman Andrea Richer sent a generic, four-line response that mentioned the amount of money the government is spending on Nutrition North and the work of its advisory board. “We are also working with the

Nutrition North Canada advisory board to engage with northerners, retailers and suppliers on ideas to keep the program on a sustainable path including increased operating efficiencies and other program improvement proposals,” Richer wrote in an email. “These suggestions will be used to develop a range of options to help the program stay on a sustainable path while increasing healthy food consumption in the North.” Nutrition North - which replaced the old Food Mail program in 2011 is intended to help defray the cost of nutritious food in the North by providing retailers with a subsidy that they are supposed to pass on by cutting food costs for consumers. But the $60-million annual food subsidy - to which the government recently added another $11.3 million for the program’s 2014-15 budget and a five per cent annual escalator in future years - has been under scrutiny ever since auditor general Michael Ferguson’s fall report in November. The audit revealed that Aboriginal Affairs is largely in the dark about whether Nutrition North actually does anything for the people who need it the

Bank slashes economic outlook THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA - The squeeze of the oil slump is prompting one of Canada’s biggest banks to slash its 2015 forecast for the country’s economy and warn that another interest-rate cut could be on the way. TD Bank said Monday it now expects the Canadian economy to grow by just two per cent this year, down from its December projection of 2.3 per cent. It foresees Canadian growth creeping back up to 2.2 per cent in 2016, said a TD report to clients. The big bank economists also predicted the Bank of Canada will

trim its trend-setting interest rate in March by another quarter of a percentage point, to 0.50 per cent. From there, it expects the key rate to remain on hold until the second half of 2016. Last week, the central bank stunned financial markets and observers when it lowered its overnight-rate target by a quarter of a percentage point to 0.75 per cent. Economists had expected the Bank of

Canada to hold the rate at one per cent, where it had been since September 2010. But in defending his decision, governor Stephen Poloz pointed a finger at the threat of low oil prices, which he called “unambiguously negative” for the Canadian economy. Poloz indicated the goal of the rate drop was to provide “insurance” against the risks cheaper oil poses to Canada’s inflation and financial stability.

most. That’s partly because the department has not required merchants to report their profit margins, which over time would indicate whether the full subsidy is being passed on to consumers. Ferguson’s team also heard that sometimes the subsidy exceeds the very shipping costs it is meant to defray. The department now says that as of April 1, retailers will have to provide information on their current and longterm profit margins. The audit also flagged another glaring problem with the subsidy. Nutrition North gives retailers a subsidy based on the weight of eligible foods shipped to eligible communities. However, the auditor general found Aboriginal Affairs choose eligible communities based not on need, but on whether they had year-round road access and if they had used the Food Mail program. Aboriginal Affairs told Ferguson’s team it has looked at expanding the full subsidy to around 50 fly-in northern communities, but doing so would increase the cost of the program by $7 million a year.

Wolf kill is the last hope for caribou

hen the B.C. government last resorted to shooting wolves from helicopters in the 1980s, an emotional public outcry forced a retreat. In the B.C. tradition, sensation-seeking urban media and protesters led the way. An outraged reporter named Pamela Martin marched a BCTV crew off the road near Fort St. John to expose this presumed crime against nature. With a metre of snow and temperatures dipping to -40, they didn’t get far, but public sentiment was aroused enough for politicians to overrule wildlife biologists. This winter, while snow reveals the wolves’ location from the air, the choppers and rifles are out again. And my heart goes out to the biologists and First Nations hunters who face this grim task. The South Selkirk

mountain caribou herd, which ranges between B.C., Idaho and Washington, has been the target of intensive conservation efforts by governments on both sides of the border. Six of the remaining 18 animals now wear radio collars. There were 46 in 2009, only 27 by 2012, and wolves have killed two more since last spring. Targeted hunting and trapping haven’t been sufficient, so up to 24 grey wolves are to be shot from the air before the snow melts. There are seven caribou herds in the South Peace, with the Graham herd the largest at about 700. It’s the control group, left to fend for itself as a measure of wolf removal for the rest. The Burnt Pine herd is down to one bull, effectively extinct. The province and Treaty 8 First Nations are working on a plan to kill 120-160 wolves in that region. It’s long been accepted

that resource roads, logging and recreational trail use have increased herd disruption and predator access through what would otherwise be seamless bush and deep snow. Snowmobiles and even back-country skiers can shift the balance. Smithers-area outdoor enthusiasts are currently being urged to stay away from the Telkwa Mountains, where the caribou herd is down to fewer than 20 animals. Local hunting and snowmobile clubs have observed a ban on motorized travel since 2003, but

of course there will always be yahoos who chase animals for fun. A mountain caribou recovery plan was implemented in 2007, protecting 2.2 million hectares from logging and road-building, including most of the core habitat of the South Selkirk herd. The Nature Conservancy of Canada bought 550 square kilometres in that region to protect habitat. Strategies include transplanting animals from healthier to weaker herds to increase genetic diversity, and capturing and penning females with young calves to keep them from being picked off by wolves. The B.C. grey wolf population averages around 8,500, with managed hunting and trapping to protect livestock while preserving the wolf as apex predator in most of its wide range. This context is seldom reported by Vancouver media, which mostly sees

its role not as explaining issues but rather embarrassing whatever political party is in power, and providing an uncritical platform for the stop-loggingmining-energy crowd, which is seen as popular with urban viewers. Remember the spotted owl, with the fringe of its range extending into southern B.C.? Our branch-plant enviros marketed that one for years. Its core habitat is Washington and Oregon, where many sawmills were shuttered to “save” them. Now they’re shooting invasive barred owls, which have emerged as a greater threat to spotted owls than logging. Context is important. I suppose we’ll never know what difference the 1980s wolf kill would have made if it hadn’t been shouted down for TV ratings and urban envirodonations.

Charlebois

Canada likely felt that its brand image was harmed beyond repair. In hindsight, Target’s failure in Canada is surprising, given its brand pedigree in the U.S. It remains a challenge to the retailer to successfully compete against WalMart. Two years on, the company’s failure to establish itself in Canada gives its critics good reason to believe that its first attempt at moving outside its borders was fundamentally flawed. Cultural adaptation was tricky, as it got too big, too quickly. By contrast, Wal-Mart’s entry into Canada after their acquisition of Woolco was careful and incremental, as opposed to Target’s swift invasion.

But ignorance is more likely to blame in this case, not arrogance or strategic myopia. The lesson seems to be more about a mix of blind enthusiasm and skewed assumptions. The value proposition for American consumers seemed to have been clearly laid out for quite some time, but this was never the case in Canada. Canadian consumers are too smart to buy into a bad deal, and that is all what Target Canada was offering. In food, its deal was simply pathetic and the experience was distinctly underwhelming. Ironically, Target Canada’s legacy will be defined by its entry and not by its exit. The very announcement that the com-

A better way to improve pensions An editorial from the Winnipeg Free Press Manitoba NDP leadership candidate Theresa Oswald has jumped on Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne’s pension bandwagon, arguing a provincial pension is needed to keep people from poverty in their old age. That, however, is an expensive option to the better idea: Improving the Canada Pension Plan by hiking contributions from employees and employers. All premiers should continue to press Ottawa to do just that. The problem is, Prime Minister Stephen Harper isn’t listening. Discussions on improving the CPP began years ago, but the prime minister has insisted the timing isn’t right -- the global recession made for a tough time to hike costs on the business sector and the Harper government, citing economic uncertainty, still refuses to budge. This ignores the interests of a majority of working Canadians, who do not have private pension plans. Statistics show people are not squirreling away enough money for retirement. Twothirds of working Canadians

do not have a company pension plan and RRSPs are the purview of upper income families. Some provinces are becoming frustrated with the federal government’s lack of response on the topic and are thinking of going it alone. Last year, Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne introduced a bill to launch the Ontario Retirement Pension Plan, a mandatory investment plan that will see workers and employers each contribute 1.9 per cent of income into the fund. Manitoba has stood alongside the provinces in vigorously calling for improvements to the CPP, which allows contributions up to a maximum income of $53,600. The maximum CPP benefit is $12,500 annually, but the average draw is $6,800. The CPP is a welcome supplement for those who have healthy work pensions, or have socked away private retirement savings, but that describes relatively few Canadians. Provincial plans are not the answer. They won’t allow residents to transfer their pension investments to another province, and that can limit career moves or cut the potential

benefit of the investment. A provincial plan could only be portable if all provinces and territories committed to falling in step, with comparable plans, and that’s unlikely to happen. Portability is the attractive backbone of the CPP -it doesn’t matter where a Canadian lives and works, or where she or he moves in the country; the benefit earned is there upon retirement. As well, the national plan pools risk among a huge number of members, supporting the fund’s sustainability at a reasonable cost. The smaller the province, the smaller the fund, increasing risk. Setting up another pension fund also means an unnecessary duplication of administration costs, which erodes the benefit that such investing can return and chips away at the argument that supports taking more money out of Canadians’ pockets. Increasing contribution rates to the CPP is more efficient, and it’s better for all working Canadians. The drive to create a patchwork of programs at the provincial level is the federal government’s making.

Letters to the Editor Policy The Trail Times welcomes letters to the editor from our readers on topics of interest to the community. Include a legible first and last name, a mailing address and a telephone number where the author can be reached. Only the author’s name and district will be published. Letters lacking names and a verifiable phone number will not be published. A guideline of 500 words is suggested for letter length. We do not publish “open” letters, letters directed to a third party, or poetry. We reserve the right to edit or refuse to publish letters. You may also e-mail your letters to editor@trailtimes.ca We look forward to receiving your opinions.

pany intended to open numerous stores in such a short period of time compelled many other major retailers, including WalMart and Loblaws, to become better and more efficient. For that reason alone, Canadian consumers are the main beneficiaries of the Target Canada caper. The aggregate quality in the food industry for Canadians is, at the very least, better

than two years ago. While it is difficult to know what the future holds for food consumers in our county, rest assured something else will arrive to compel companies to further improve themselves. In effect, Target paid $5 billion to learn that Canada is not America. It is an expensive experience, but in all likelihood the company will learn from this

experience. At the very least, paying close attention to local idiosyncrasies when looking at markets abroad is increasingly becoming a significant conditional factor for a successful entry.

Alberta Mountie’s sister urges mourners to live life to the fullest

THE CANADIAN PRESS ST. ALBERT, Alta. The sister of an Alberta Mountie told mourners at his funeral Monday that he would want them to live life the way he did - with joy, passion and with every effort to make the world a better place. “He would want us to throw ourselves into the things that bring us joy and to do it for him. He would want us to follow our hearts ... he certainly did that,” Mona Wynn said in her eulogy before thousands at a recreation centre in St. Albert, Alta. “David would want us to forgive. He was a peaceful man. He didn’t have the time to even notice a grudge much less hold one.” Const. David Wynn, 42, died last Wednesday, four days after he and auxiliary Const. Derek Bond

were shot during a struggle with a suspected car thief at a casino in St. Albert. He was shot in the head and never regained consciousness before he died. The shooter, career criminal Shawn Rehn, killed himself hours later. Wynn’s sister remembered her brother as a person who brought enthusiasm to everything he did be it scuba diving, swimming, fly fishing, spending time with his family or serving his community and country. “Over the past 10 days, there has been such an outpouring of stories about Dave and obvious love for him from the people that he has touched that I have realized he was far more than I ever imagined,” she said. “Dave was an ordinary man with an extra-

ordinary capacity to make the world a better place for everyone around him.” She noted that her brother’s organs and tissue were donated and the family has been told they will help as many as 35 people. Insp. Kevin Murray of the RCMP called him “the finest example of a front-line police officer.” The Rankin Family and Paul Brandt both performed songs in Wynn’s memory. Two friends and colleagues from his paramedic days in Bridgewater, N.S., also sang an emotional song about the life of a first responder. Earlier in the day, the skirl of bagpipes filled the air as a procession of 2,000 police officers, military members and first responders wound its way through the streets of St. Albert. A riderless horse, a pair of brown boots turned backward in

the stirrups, led a black hearse carrying Wynn’s coffin to the funeral service. The procession included 860 Mounties in their traditional red serge and 450 officers from the municipal police force in nearby Edmonton. The Mounties came from across Canada and from as far away as Newfoundland and Nunavut. A handful made the trip from Bridgewater. Hundreds of spectators, who were encouraged to wear red, lined the procession route under sunny skies and unseasonably warm temperatures. Many were holding Canadian flags and one giant flag was strung from the erected ladder of a fire truck. Thousands of white ribbons were tied to trees and poles along the route. “We lost an important person in our society and we just wanted to be here to pay our

respects,” said Beverly White, who lives about five minutes from the shooting scene and attended the procession with her grandson. “It’s going to be an emotional day.” Laredo Nault, 14, travelled from Legal, Alta., with a quilt emblazoned with the quote: No greater love than to give one’s life for another. “It kind of popped up in our minds - an officer gave his life away to protect our country and I think that quote represents it good,” he said. Wynn is survived by his wife, Shelly and his three sons, Matt, Nathan and Alex. Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Alberta Premier Jim Prentice and RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson all attended the service. Bond, who was shot in the arm and torso, survived the attack, but faces a long recovery.

Harmony Santano

10am - 2pm

June 13, 1948 ~ December 21, 2014 Our Mom, Harmony Santano, met a sudden, unexpected death on December 21, 2014 in Creston. A million thanks to the Creston Fire Department and medical staff for their tireless efforts to save Mom. Left behind are eight children and ten grand children to grieve. Mom lived the Bible deeply and enjoyed the insights and study with the Jehovah’s. Her two green thumbs kept us eight kids fed in Grand Forks in the 1970s and 1980s. Always the gypsy, mom lived in northern BC in Grassy Plains and Smithers but considered herself a “Kootenay Girl”, loving the Slocan Valley and Creston. Harmony lived her recycling philosophy, never wasting a scrap of metal, wood, plastic or compost. We are all going to miss you until our last breath.

Toller Cranston

Figure skater was Olympian and six-time Canadian champion

THE CANADIAN PRESS One of figure skating’s brightest stars and most colourful characters is gone. Toller Cranston, a larger-than-life star on and off the ice who helped revolutionize the sport, died at his home in Mexico from an apparent heart attack, a Skate Canada spokesperson said Saturday. He was 65. Cranston, a six-time Canadian senior men’s champion who won bronze at the 1974 world championships and 1976 Olympics, was known for his dramatic showmanship on the ice. While he never won an Olympic or world title, his unique artistic vision forever changed the sport. There was a moment of silence in his honour between the men’s event and the ice dance Saturday night at the Canadian figure skating championships in Kingston, Ont. In a sport that later became full of highflyers replete with arsenals of quad jumps, Cranston was all about the artistry. “He is his own work of art,” the Globe and Mail wrote in 2003. When he hung up his skates, Cranston kept on creating with a paintbrush. “He was one of a kind,” said Brian Orser, a former Canadian and world champion, Olympic silver medallist and now in-demand coach. “Nobody will ever be like him. And such a great contribution to figure skating but me, personally, (it was) just his sense of humour and his outlook on life and (his) free spirit ... (he was) somewhat of a rebel. Always spoke his mind, wasn’t always so accurate but he spoke his mind.” A member of Canada’s Sports Hall of Fame since 1977, Cranston was always one of a kind. “A skater with a painter’s eye, his original artistry and dramatic showmanship on ice broke new ground in figure skating and thrilled audiences,” said Skate Canada. Cranston was born in Hamilton, grew up in Kirkland Lake, Ont., and Montreal before settling in Mexico once his skating days were done. He was also an avid artist and his work was exhibited in galleries and museums around the world. He lived a unique life, cycling in and out of the public eye after his skating career. In his 2000 book “When Hell Freezes Over, Should I Bring My Skates?” Cranston wrote of knocking hockey star Wayne Gretzky off a bicycle, chasing jazz singer Nina Simone down a Montreal street trying to recover a fur coat, of his costume sticking to the ice on the Rideau Canal during an outdoor show in Ottawa, and much, much more. “Within the skating world, I’ve been privileged to have had a textured and multifaceted career,” he told The Canadian Press in an interview at the time. He was inducted into the Canadian Olympic Hall of Fame in 1976 and was made an Officer of the Order of Canada in 1977. “Toller Cranston was a stellar athlete and a trailblazer for sport in our country,” Marcel Aubut, the president of the Canadian Olympic Committee said in a statement. 2003 HYUNDAI TIBURON GT: 100,000kms, V6, 6spd, power everything, silver, never winter driven, incredible condition, $10,000.

Smoke Eaters winless on coastal road trip BY JIM BAILEY

Times Sports Editor

GUY BERTRAND PHOTO

Over 150 athletes road the lift to the top of Links’ Line on Granite Mt. last week to compete in the 2015 Canadian Open Freeskiing championships.

Freeskiers take flight

BY TIMES STAFF Rossland freeskiers soared to top placings at the 2015 Canadian Open Freeskiing championship at Red Mountain on the weekend. About 160 participants competed in the three-day competition that began Thursday with the Male and Female ages 7-11 and 12-14 dropping down Links’ Line for their first runs on Granite Mountain. In freeskiing competition, skiers are scored on a combined total of two runs that are judged on a competitor’s creativity in selecting natural terrain features and aggressive lines. The point system is based on five categories where judges give credit for line choice, control, fluidity, technique and aggression. In the Female 7-11 category Rossland’s Erin Flood led the whole way scoring 33.7 on her first run and 31.5 on her second go to capture gold with a 65.2 total. Meadwo Webber meanwhile rocketed from fourth place after her opening run to count 27.5 in her second run and finish in second with a

53.6 total. Audry Hall of Rossland took fourth place. In Male 7-11, the Rossland freeskiers sat 1,2,3 after the opening heat, with Xander Bankes leading with a 31.6 effort, Bodi Kuhn right behind him at 30.8 and Toby Hillis in third with a 29.9 run. An unfortunate fall would put Hillis out of the medals in seventh, but Bankes and Kuhn would finish first and second with final scores of 64.4 and 62.6 respectively. Blaise Swain of Rossland finished fourth, while Simon Impey took sixth spot. In female 12-14 Rossland’s Samara Kuhn had a strong second run with a tally of 27.4, that moved her from fourth into second place, 4.3 points behind gold medalist Anna Thompson of Seattle who finished with 58.8. Simon Hillis of Rossland led the Male 12-14 category after the first run with a 30.9 score, but trouble on the second go-around dropped him out of contention, dropping him to 15th place. See FREESKIING, Page 12

The playoff window has all but closed for the Trail Smoke Eaters who ended a threegames-in-three-days road trip to the coast with a 5-2 loss to Coquitlam Express on Sunday. The Smokies managed just one point over the trifecta, an 8-7 overtime setback to the Chilliwack Chiefs on Friday, followed by a 4-3 defeat to the Langley Rivermen on Saturday, and the loss to the Express Sunday. “You have those weekends where you end it on a good note with a win in the last game and you feel a little bit different about the outcome,” said Smoke Eater coach and GM Nick Deschenes. “But our Coquitlam game was just overall a big disappointment. I know as a group we realize that, although it’s not a focus, we’re still pushing for a playoff spot, but to show up with that kind of effort is unacceptable.” Trail missed a prime opportunity to make up ground on the Interior division rivals West Kelowna Warriors and Merritt Centennials as both teams went winless on the weekend. The Smokies sit 17 points back of the final playoff spot in the Interior division with just 13 games remaining. Coquitlam rolled to a 5-0 third-period lead before Trail would find the scoreboard, with goals coming from captain Jake Lucchini and Jordan Passmore. Trail outshot the Express 41-27 but could not beat the game’s first star, goaltender Chris Tai, who stymied an erratic Smokies attack until Lucchini’s 23rd goal of the season at 6:16 of the third. Coquitlam’s Thanvir Bandesha scored the only goal of the first period despite Trail’s 18-7 edge in shots. The Express netted three more in the second frame on goals from ex-Smokie Brendan Lamont, Corey Mackin, and

Brett Supinski. Mackin would score his league-leading 41st goal and 84th point to make it 5-0 on the power play five minutes into the third to round out the scoring for the Express. “Shots were deceptive that game,” said Deschenes. “There was no traffic to the net, no driving the net, we looked off good opportunities to shoot the puck, and their top line produced four of their five goals, we weren’t hard enough on them.” The first two games of the road trip also took its toll as Trail dressed three AP’s, and were without Dallas Calvin and Evan MacEachern for the Express game. In addition, forward Kienan Scott and defenceman Bryan Gerstenfeld missed the road trip due to injury. The Smokies also deserved better on Saturday against the Rivermen, as they dominated play but came up short on the scoreboard. “It was an effort I was happy with. As a group we played hard, and we outplayed them, outshot them, and outchanced them but we ran into a goal post three times and a cross bar, or it would have been a different story.” The Rivermen went into the third period with a 4-2 lead with two goals from Marcus Vela and singles from Colton Kehler and Gage Torrel. Lucchini scored both Smokies goals and Cooper Leitch added the other marker for Trail with 1:36 remaining after goalie Adam Todd was pulled for an extra attacker. Trail outshot Langley 38-28. Friday night’s game started well but a disastrous final seven minutes of the third period allowed Chilliwack to comeback from a 7-4 deficit. Chilliwack pulled its goalie, Aiden Pelino, off-and-on over the last seven minutes and the strategy worked. With 6:46 to go, Jake Hand one-timed a Scott Davidson pass past Brett Clark to make it 7-5. The Chiefs coach pulled Pelino

again, and with 5:48 to go Jordan Kawaguchi deflected a Tkachuk point shot past Clark to make it 7-6. Then with Pelino on the bench, extra skater Craig Puffer would score with 27 seconds left on the clock to force OT. “We completely blew the lead against Chilliwack,” added Deschenes. “I can count three or four moments when, had we executed, we could have won that game.” The Chiefs Tipper Higgins ended it 1:23 into OT to complete the improbable comeback. Jake Hand scored two goals and added three assists for the Chiefs, and former Smoke Eater captain Davidson had two assists. Lucchini and Craig Martin each had fourpoint nights with two goals and two assists. Max Newton, Harlan Orr, and Charlie Zuccarini had the other goals for Trail, that was outshot 49-33 by the Chiefs. The three-and-three against the Mainland division teams was the final extended road trip of the season for the Smoke Eaters, with 12 of their 13 remaining games against division rivals. Trail is, mathematically at least, still in the hunt for a playoff spot, and while the Smokies coach acknowledges the team has underachieved this season, he expects their best effort in every remaining game. “We’ll just look at video and learn, and if we can’t learn from these and keep moving forward as a group, then we might as well end the season right now. There is still a lot to play for and there is a lot of players moving on to the next level. They still have to elevate their games in a big way I think to make those opportunities seem justifiable, in my opinion, and then there’s also players playing for next year.” Trail’s next game goes Friday at home against the league leading Penticton Vees at 7:30 p.m.

Planning for success requires succession planning.
