Readers may recall that famous line spoken by HAL 9000, the computer in the 1969 film, 2001: A Space Odyssey. It was of course a line that sent Dave to his death in outer space. It was also a line that was remarkably prescient for its time, envisaging as it did, the possibility of machine intelligence no longer being subservient to its creators. As our feature writer, Peachland Resident, Robert Tarrant, points out we are edging ever closer to a time when that which was once science fiction is well and truly upon us.

Locating Peachland grave sites now made easier

If you have occasion to locate the grave site of anyone you believe may be buried in the Peachland Cemetery, that task has now become much easier.

The District has announced the launch of an interactive Cemetery Map Viewer which can be accessed on the District website.

The map can be searched by family name or by cemetery block if known.

The announcement includes some interesting information about the cemetery which is located at the intersection of Elliott and Vernon Avenue.

• It is believed the cemetery was donated by J.M. Robinson, the founder of Peachland

• The cemetery is thought to be one of the oldest in the Central Okanagan, established in the late 1890s

• Some of the oldest grave markers date back as far back as 1900

• The cemetery data is compiled from historical records dating back to the late 1890s. Records earlier than that have been lost over time.

The cemetery is always open to pedestrians through two un-

locked access gates.

Cemetery burial sites are available for purchase from the district and can be reserved for future use.

To access the map viewer on the District website go to peachland.ca/cemetery.

To enquire about the purchase of a burial site contact the Peachland Operations Department at 250 767 2108.

District offices closed for Truth and Reconciliation Day

By Keith Fielding

On Monday, September 30, Mayor and Council and the District of Peachland observed Canada’s fourth annual National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

In a message to residents, Mayor Patrick Van Minsel, highlighted the District’s commitment to recognizing the lasting impacts of Canada’s residential school system.

“Four years ago, our Nation took this vital step to collectively honour the survivors of Canada’s residential school system and all its uncountable victims on this day each year.

I again promise to seek the

truth and true reconciliation, and I believe that meaningful truth and reconciliation occur in our everyday actions and in our everyday words.

When Peachland Council gathers, we recognize that we conduct business on the unceded, traditional territory of the Syilx/Okanagan people, the first residents of this area.

We are committed to respectful dialogue with our First Nation friends and neighbours, and we are proud of the ongoing Council-To-Council meetings we have held this year with Westbank First Nation.

We discuss issues of mutual concern openly, with an essential

and eternal foundation of respect and friendship supporting our discussions.

Peachland consults with First Nations any time an issue is before us that should be considered with their knowledge and understanding, and we happily receive this feedback. WFN and Peachland joined as a delegation at this month’s UBCM conference to lobby for improved power security for our communities.

I am happy to stand together in the spirit of reconciliation as we support each other in improving our neighbouring communities.

On behalf of Peachland Council and the residents of this community, I extend the deepest condolences to the survivors of this devastating time in our nation’s history and to their families who continue to suffer from its ramifications.

I encourage Peachlanders to take a moment on September 30 to make your own promises to seek meaningful truth and true reconciliation.”

As a way to engage the community in recognizing the Truth and Reconciliation Day the District made handprint tags available at the Swim Bay concession stand for people to write and post messages of healing and support.

The tags were attached to railings during the period September 24 to October 1st.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Protect the uniqueness of Peachland

Dear Editor:

I read with great interest the September 12, 2025 article by Janice Liebe entitled, “How Peachland’s heritage could be the key to a thriving downtown.”

In the early 1980’s Canada realized this need by establishing Heritage Canada and its Main Street program which at the time was a newcomer to the world of heritage organizations like The National Trust of England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, established in 1895. Today ours is called The National Trust for Canada.

Perth, Ontario, was an early adopter of this program and today can boast being awarded the 2004 Prince of Wales Prize as well as being a thriving tourist town.

(https://nationaltrustcanada. ca/nt-awards/town-of-perth)

The National Trust is an independent national charity that empowers communities to save and renew heritage places.

Heritage places are the backbone of resilient, diverse and sustainable communities: think historic lighthouses and schools, rural landscapes, Indigenous heritage sites, places of faith, older homes and neighbourhoods, and the building and vibe on Main Street.

Think of our Beach Avenue and other areas in Peachland.

“We work with partners, donors, and funders to see heritage places play their part as cornerstones of climate action and social cohesion, and we spark important conversations about Canada ....” (https://nationaltrustcanada.ca/who-we-are)

Peachland

A deeper look at this organization and all it offers may be just what we need to coalesce many of Peachland’s stated goals.

Anne Wigfield (Former researcher for the Peachland Historical Society

Our heritage buildings are key

Dear Editor:

Thank you, Janice Liebe, for voicing what I have felt since moving to Peachland in 2009: our heritage buildings could be the key to a thriving, attractive downtown.

The majority of residents in Peachland want to retain our history, character, and small-town feel.

This vision is written into our Official Community Plan, yet

without enforceable bylaws, it remains only words on paper. Under current zoning, heritage buildings can be demolished and replaced with generic structures that have no connection to the past.

The only way these buildings can truly be preserved is if the District acts. Janice Liebe rightly highlights Revelstoke as a model. Revelstoke has retained its charm because the city requires an Alteration Permit for any new development or change. These rules are set out in the Development Approval Procedures Bylaw and enforced through the Official Community Plan’s heritage guidelines that ensure new construction respects and enhances historic character.

Preserving a building is not enough. A single oversized, modern structure next door can erase its charm.

Peachland needs strong bylaws requiring developers to show how any new build will complement neighbouring properties, including trims, façades, and streetscape impact.

If Council truly listens to its residents, it must act now to protect what makes Peachland unique—before our history disappears forever.

Gillian Evans, Peachland,

When I ask for directions, please don’t use words like ‘East’.

One

big difference between men and women is that when a woman says “Smell

this”, it usually smells nice.

Heritage honors the past and shapes the future

As the public consultation process regarding downtown revitalization heads to its closing stages, many Peachland residents remain determined to ensure that our heritage buildings and historic roots are not merely protected but are also celebrated as core features of the OCP policies, zoning bylaws and design guidelines, that will govern the future look and feel of our town.

Earlier this month retired architect Janice Liebe asked and answered key questions: what does small town charm really mean, and what are its key characteristics in Peachland? That was no easy task, given that it meant putting into words, features and impressions that are factually

POLICY MATTERS

Keith Fielding

observable but also subjective. Getting that task “right” is important because it will be words, and possibly legal interpretations of them, that will matter the most when it is time to draft the rules governing what developers will be allowed and not allowed to do in future.

Previously, Liebe had made the point that the old and the new can co-exist and that heritage preservation does not mean we cannot also welcome and embrace modern design.

And, while that co-existence may be a tricky seam to manage, success in doing so will again depend on the words that define the rules.

A key issue to emerge from DRIS (the Downtown Revitalization Implementation Strategy) is that the worst possible outcome will be a loosey-goosey “rule book” that fails to include the appropriate language needed to achieve the outcomes desired.

To help keep the discussion “outcome focused” we have included two letters that readers

have submitted, one of which addresses a vision and the other that reminds us of resources available to help us navigate the territory. We have devoted a little more space to these letters than is customary and hope that other readers will weigh in with their thoughts about the future look and feel of downtown Peachland. The articles that Janice Liebe contributed and are referred to by letter writers appeared in the July 18 and September 12 editions of Peachland Post.

Win or lose: it is on the field the contest is decided

When Canada’s women’s rugby team beat defending world champions New Zealand during our stay in England, there was a lot of chirping on an English rugby site. Most liked the Canadian team but some were saying they were lucky to be there, that they are “just amateurs” and that their win was somehow a surprise. So, I posted a comment which got a lot of likes. It went like this:

‘Cheering Canadian Women on. When it comes to war, Canadians are always the first to join the battle amongst allies and the last to join the parade afterwards. It’s the Canadian way. Get the job done and leave the celebration and rewriting of history afterwards to those countries with a better movie industry.’

LOCAL COMMUNITY SPORTS

In 1972 when Canada’s best men’s ice hockey team finally played Russia’s best in an eight game series, Canada played the last four games in Russia down 2-1 in the series. Canada ended up winning the series. 75% of Canada watched the final game even though it was broadcast live from Moscow early in the Canadian morning.

NO HISTORY? KNOW HISTORY by RICHARD SMITH

Sheep on the move

around Peachland

For many years in the 1930’s and 1940’s the Mannring family herded 1000 sheep on the hills above Peachland, on the Pennask Plateau. In the winter they were herded on the hillsides above the town and above Greata Ranch and

the Miller Ranch, now Okanagan Lake Park campground. In spring, with the help of sheep herding dogs, the sheep were moved up Princeton Avenue to the summer range on Pennask Mountain. Daughter Betty (Mannring) Sim still lives here.

Schools and businesses closed or brought in TVs so students and employees could watch. The Russians had some dirty tactics during the series, kicking the Canadians in the calves with their skates after the whistle, etc.

In the second period of the final whistle, a Russian did that to a Canadian and the Canadian in front of a sellout Moscow crowd with a large contingent of Soviet troops in the stands beat the daylights out of the Russian in the ensuing fight. When the Canadian commentator stated as the fight ended, “The Russian has a bleeding nose,” all of Canada roared!

In the third period when Canadian manager Alan Eagleson complained loudly about the officiating, Soviet troops came over and tried to arrest Eagleson at the stadium. Seeing this, the whole Canadian team left the bench, skated across the ice, went into the stands, snatched Eagleson back from the Russian troops, and took him back across the ice to the Canadian bench where he stayed safe for the rest of the game. En route across the ice Eagleson “flipped the bird” with both hands to the Russian fans. Back home watching the game, 75% of Canada roared again.

Canada won the deciding game and series in a last minute

goal by forward, Paul Henderson. For years afterwards a depiction of that goal was featured on the Canadian five dollar bill.

Had this been any other nation, the US, UK etc. the movie industry and international sports media would have run wild with it. Movies made, legends broadcast worldwide, etc. but we are Canadian. We just get the job done no matter what and move on.

Despite a great performance, the Canadian Women’s team did not win the rugby World Cup final against England. They were defeated 33-13 in front of a record crowd of 82,000, at London’s Twickenham stadium.

But that is the beauty of sport. It is decided on the field, not in fan’s commentary beforehand. And win or lose, that’s the way Canadians like it. Because it is on the field and in the trenches where life’s battles are truly won.

Congratulations to our Canadian women’s team!

AI threatens to fundamentally transform our society

AI FROM PAGE 1

By RoBeRt taRRant

As a senior in Peachland, I’ve witnessed many technological changes throughout my lifetime—from the advent of television to the rise of the internet. But nothing compares to the transformative potential and existential risks posed by artificial intelligence.

While our community focuses on immediate concerns like infrastructure and wildfires, we must also turn our attention to the coming AI revolution that threatens to fundamentally reshape our society in potentially dangerous ways.

We hear of the wonderful future AI can bring in medicine, longevity, manufacturing, education, counselling, scientific breakthroughs, climate and many other areas. AI could introduce an age of abundance for all of humanity.

However, none of this will happen if we are unable to align it with our goals and ethics.

The accelerating pace of AI development presents risks that extend far beyond the technology sector. We face potential for mass job displacement that could devastate local families, skill mismatches that leave workers behind, and inequality that could lead to social unrest.

AI systems can perpetuate harmful biases, enable malicious use by bad actors,

and facilitate more successful cyber attacks that compromise our privacy and security.

One of the most concerning is the erosion of trust we are already witnessing through mass misinformation and sophisticated deep fakes. When we can no longer trust what we see or hear, how can our democratic institutions function? How can our financial systems remain stable when humans no longer understand AI-driven trading algorithms, and they malfunction? When we are no longer able to control the things we depend on?

Canada has taken initial steps with the Canadian AI Safety Institute, but much more must be done. We need robust regulations, safety standards, and oversight mechanisms that keep pace with this rapidly accelerating evolution of technology.

A 2025 poll by Research Co. found that 50% of Canadians now view AI as a threat to humanity. This percentage is increasing each month. I asked seven different AIs: “What do the top leaders in this field think is the probability that AI will destroy humanity?” All AIs gave almost identical answers:

• ELON MUSK: CEO of Xai

- makers of Grok: 10-25%

• DARIO AMODEI: CEO of Anthropic - makers of Claude: 10–25%,

• GEOFFREY HINTON: Nobel Prize, 2024 as the Grandfather of AI: 10-20%

• STUART RUSSELL (top

programmer): wrote the standard university training AI text books: 10-20%

• YUVAL NOAH HARARI (historian/philosopher/political advisor): wrote Sapiens, Homo Dias, Nexus: 20%

Ask yourself this question: Would I decide to get on a plane after multiple mechanics have told me it has a 10-20% chance of crashing?

Elon Musk and Dario Amodei expect Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) to be here by the end of 2026, followed quickly by Artificial Super Intelligence (ASI) in only a year or possibly a few months later. What can we do? First, we must demand action from our elected representatives at all levels. Second, we must educate

ourselves and our neighbors about these risks. This isn’t about stopping progress—it’s about ensuring that progress doesn’t destroy us. Third, we can support organizations working on AI safety through donations and advocacy. The window for action is closing rapidly. Our children and grandchildren’s future—indeed, humanity’s future—depends on the actions we take today. The time for complacency has passed. The time for action is now.

STORY SLAM

From poetry to bodice rippers: Storytelling builds community

With clammy hands, I nervously awaited my turn to share a piece of writing in Peachland’s popular Story Slam. “What is Story Slam?” you may ask.

Story Slam is an evening when writers and story tellers of varying experience, either read an original piece of writing such as a poem, a story, a tidbit from their manuscript or… choose to stand up and share a story spoken off the cuff.

Five volunteer judges offer a score out of ten to determine a winner for the cash prize of half the money collected from the $10 door fee. A timer is set with a five minute limit after which, half a point is deducted for every ten seconds a speaker goes over. The first ten participants to sign up get a slot to speak. Liquid courage is available for purchase.

Story Slam is rapidly becoming Peachland’s favourite way to spend a Saturday night and we have Denise Miller’s volunteered time to thank.

Denise has been a professional Storyteller specializing in topics from history to mythology, since 1996. She has enthralled thousands of listeners, speaking at venues ranging from schools and libraries

to cruise ships. In collaboration with The Okanagan Folk School,

Denise started Story Slam right here in our hometown, located at Our SPACE on the second Saturday of each month from 6-8 p.m. (Denise is soon also offering a workshop on story telling!)

So why does storytelling matter? Since the origin of speech, sharing stories has been the foundation of how we have survived, preserved history and tradition, learned from one another, and created community.

Indeed, storytelling is a sacred art deeply ingrained in our very human nature. It is also incredibly fun!

So despite my anxiety, I wrote out a personal story and marched my sweaty self down to the big yellow schoolhouse.

To be clear, I wasn’t nervous because of the audience. The crowd was friendly and generously supportive. I wasn’t nervous because I had never spoken in front of a group; I’ve done a lot of public speaking. I was nervous because I have never shared deeply personal writing rather than something work-related. But because I try as often as possible to stretch myself beyond my comfort zone, clammy and anxious, I did it anyway.

I can confidently report back to anyone nervously considering it, I not only survived but enjoyed the evening immensely. Some of

the speakers had us in stitches; some brought a tear to our eyes. And, I believe we all left with a deeper sense of connection.

The next Story Slam is October 11. Come join the fun while building community! Whether you attend to be a supportive listener or choose to bravely share, you won’t regret it.

Children who love reading

Forty children completed a summer reading program organized by the Peachland library.

“We had a wonderful summer of education and entertainment,” reported Catherine Mamo, Peachland librarian. “Forty children completed their ‘Reading Log’ which meant 49 days of reading!” The children received a medal, a certificate, a book and a special prize for all their hard work.

PRINCESS STREET

ROAD NAME of the week

This is one of the original roads in Peachland, running off Princeton Avenue named by Peachland founder, John Moore Robinson. It is marked on the 1902 survey map, signed by Robinson and held in Peachland’s municipal offices.

It is believed that the Princess after whom this street was named was Princess Mary of Teck (1867-1953), the wife of Queen Victoria’s grandson George.

Princess Mary was well known in Canada since both she and Prince George had made a visit to western Canada and the Klondike in 1901.

Royal visits in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries appear to have had enormous impact in Canada and the naming of this street likely reflects that 1901 visit which happened shortly after the founding of Peachland.

In 1910, George succeeded his father (King Edward VII) as King George V, and Princess Mary became Queen Mary. She lived until 1953, by which time her granddaughter Elizabeth had ascended the throne as Queen Elizabeth II.
