Area D town hall meeting productiveCRAIG LINDSAYGrand Forks Gazette

Residents from area D (rural Grand Forks) got a chance on Feb. 17 to hear a presentation on the upcoming fi ve-year fi nancial plan and learn about the Regional District of Kootenay Bound-ary (RDKB).

The town hall meeting featured director Roly Russell who talked about his role and the role of the RDKB in governing the region.

“Every year the electoral areas present a town hall meeting where they give an update on what the regional district is and how it came to be and talk about some of the services provided,” said Russell after the meeting. “I thought it was good.

Phoenix hosts first bonspiel ever in Boundary with three GF rinks 1910

H. Whiting, FRHS, undertakes the planting and pruning of large and small orchards.

The first bonspiel ever held in the Bound-ary district opened at Phoenix last night with three rinks from this city participating.

1920T. Padgett of the enterprising east-

end ranchers, took delivery last week of a caterpillar traction motor, which is rapidly coming to the front as a neces-sity to progressive farming.

Carrying credentials from several lo-cal representative bodies with a view to pressing the government for further action in connection with the irrigation project for the Grand Forks valley, vice-president C.A.S. Atwood of the local branch of the United Farmers of B.C. leaves tomorrow for Victoria to attend the annual convention of the UFBC to be held next week.

1930 The building which for some years

has been used as a bicycle repair shop by J. Mooyboer, is being taken down this week. By removal of the building, Mr. Mooyboer’s garage can more read-ily be seen from Bridge Street.

A.L. McDougall of Penticton and Ben Hoy of Kelowna will be the speakers at a special meeting of the Farmers Insti-tute.

1940Start of a new fruit and vegetable

cannery at Grand Forks, has been made possible by the lease of a government building to Robert Broder and Elwood Cross. A brick cannery building erected by the government at the close of the last

war has been leased to the operators for use as a cannery supplement for the output of foodstuffs for the war. They will take over on March 1 and install up-to-date machinery.

1950M.R. Benniger of Fort Francis, Ont.,

has purchased the business of S.G. Den-coe in west Grand Forks and the busi-ness is now operated by the new man-agement.

The 25th annual Joy Night, held in the school gymnasium, proved to be the most successful in the long line of Joy Nights.

1960A nursing shortage and overcrowded

conditions have strained the local hos-pital staff.

1970Axel Franson retired after 48 years

with the CPR. He had maintained a job with the railroad since age 17, when he had come from Sweden.

The guest skater for the ice carnival was Margaret Konken, 17-year-old Can-ada Gold Medalist from Vancouver.

1980From all indications, large numbers

of Boundary area shoppers responded just as enthusiastically as their neigh-bors in the West Kootenays, when on Feb. 8 many Colville, Washington retail-ers accepted Canadian money at par “in appreciation” for our country’s role in the recent escape of six U.S. diplomats from Iran.

1985A telegram has been sent to environ-

ment minister Tony Brummet by the

B.C. Cattlemen’s Association, protest-ing the transplant of bighorn sheep to the Overton-Moody range near Grand Forks.

1990With most of the profits from the an-

nual bottle drives going up the chim-ney of the Scout hall, local Scout leader John Billwiller says the time has come to make needed repairs.

1995The Grand Forks Doukhobor Mill-

ing Heritage Society has received two provincial government grants to restore the Doukhobor Flour Mill and develop a museum and gift shop in the building. The society sees the site, with its Douk-hobor architecture and history, becom-ing a popular tourist destination.

2000Less than a year after opening its

new track, Grand Forks is now home to the Canadian BMX Association. The head office opened up at the beginning of February and society president Frank Astofooroff says it should be the start of a beneficial relationship between the city and BMX, especially with Grand Forks slated as one of the sites for the National series of races this year.

2005Two elderly people had their peace-

ful weekend shattered when an uniden-tified man burst into their Grand Forks home wielding a crowbar. He assaulted them when he failed to get the money he demanded, sending both to hospital.

2010Minister of Forests and Range Pat

Bell paid a visit to Grand Forks Friday. He was taken on a tour of Interfor and then met with representatives of the Grand Forks Stock Breeders Associa-tion. He was impressed with what was being done at Interfor.

Pet of the Week FloydHi, my name is Floyd the beagle and I am 5 years old. I was recently rescued from Washington State and enjoy living in Canada, eh. I crave food and treats, like any good beagle does, and love going for walks and rides. I went for my first ride on a motorcycle last week and enjoyed that, especially with all the treats that I was given. Congratulations to my hot cousin, Miss P from Enderby, B.C. on being named top dog at the Westminster Dog Show. Finally the recognition that we friendly, happy beagles deserve! I really enjoy being petted and scratched, but my best friend Joe gets jealous!

School board facing money crunchCRAIG LINDSAYGrand Forks Gazette

Cuts to education are eventually going to hit classrooms, says school board chair Teresa Rezan-

soff, who is also the president of the B.C. School Trustees As-sociation (BCSTA).

The budget was announced during the throne speech on Feb. 17 and includes a $29 million cut for the next school year. It also includes a further $25 million cut the following year.

“Overall, the increase that came to the education budget primarily are dollars that will be going towards funding the negotiated settlement with teachers and our support staff, pri-marily CUPE but all support staff, and the increase that was negotiated for the learning improvement plans,” said Rezan-soff. “What is also happening is that government is requesting boards to cut administration spending. It’s $29 million reduc-tion this coming year and $25 million more next year. So that’s $54 million and another $54 the following year. That’s $147 million over three years.”

Rezansoff said that the cuts equal about 7.6 per cent. “It’s a significant amount to try to cut when essentially those are the areas we always go to first when tightening up our budgets

rather than going into our classrooms.”Rezansoff said it will be tough for the board to make more

cuts to administration considering, “we’ve already cut as lean and as tight to the bone as we possibly could. It’s going to be a very big hardship to boards.”

Local budget amendedThere are no surprises in the amended budget bylaw for school district 61, says Rezansoff. At the school board meeting on Feb. 10 in Grand Forks, trustees voted to agree to give the amended budget bylaw all three readings.“We passed our budget back in June of 2014,” explained Re-zansoff. “The amended budget in February is just the recon-ciliation of everything. It just shows a more accurate picture of where we’re at.”Overall revenues are down from $16,975,465 in the earlier budget to $16,819,818 in the amended budget, while expenses are also down from $17,750,554 (earlier budget) to $17,585,946 (amended budget).The net expense is down from $775,089 to $766,128. The to-tal budget bylaw amount in the amended annual budget is $17,947,946 down from the earlier budget at $18,022,554.

ATV club dinner and discussionThe Grand Forks ATV Club held its annual appreciation dinner at the Royal Canadian Legion #59 on Saturday night. About 50 club members and guests were treated to a full dinner, socializing, prize draws and speakers. Connie Herman, natural resources officer with the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, gave a PowerPoint presentation detailing what the role of a natural resources officer is; and Kayla Hahn and Diane Muscroft from RHC Insurance spoke about the new laws requiring registra-tion and insurance of off-road vehicles.Pictured are Doug Zorn, vice-president of the ATV club, as well as Muscroft (middle) and Hahn speaking on the new laws govern-ing ATVs and other off-road vehicles.

Today (Feb. 25) is Pink Shirt Day, a day to wear pink to raise awareness and to stand up against bullying.

Pink Shirt Day started several years ago in Nova Scotia when two grade 12 boys wore pink in support of a young-er boy who was bullied mercilessly for wearing pink.

Bullying can take on many forms. When we were in high school (in the 1970s and 80s), bullying was pretty obvious. It was bigger, stronger, older boys who would physically pick on younger, weaker kids. It also meant verbal abuse through name-calling and belittling.

As society changed over the years, so has bullying. Cyber-bullying is now much more prevalent and can be more subtle but just as bad. Well known cas-es such as Amanda Todd have brought more light to the subject but it’s still tough for kids (and adults) to step up and fight back against any bullying.

Of course, bullying isn’t just about kids, it can also be in the workplace or neighbourhood as one person tries to force there way onto someone else us-ing threats, force, or coercion.

Everyone deserves a workplace, home and school free of bullying.

Why not make every day a day to treat people how you would want to be treated?

HOW TO REACH US

It seemed like just the other day; school memories

When we are growing up there are a lot of people in our lives who become mentors, those people who help us along the way by explain life and how best to live it, or by being a great role model.

Happily for me—and most if not all my classmates—Grand Forks schools had the best teachers you could find any-where.

When I arrived I was in Grade 5 in Miss MacMillan’s class. She was a thoughtful, kind and involved middle-aged teacher who really cared about me as well as the other students. She wanted us to do well, and taught with passion. She was also moved up a year later to Grade 7 so we had her twice and we were happy with

that. My memories are all posi-tive—and with one funny one.

She was presenting to us in English class when one of the students near the back of the room leaned over and started talking to his seatmate across the aisle. She paused from her writing something on the blackboard and looked at them, expecting a little quiet. One of them sat up but then quickly leaned over again for more ex-change of words.

Miss MacMillan, now frus-trated, threw her piece of chalk at him, Leonard Bay I think it was, just as he leaned over. The chalk flew by him and hit Snuggy MacIntosh (as he was nicknamed) in the forehead. He had been looking down reading something and when the chalk hit him he raised his hand and in an agitated voice shouted out, “Miss MacMillan, some-body just threw a piece of chalk at me and hit me in the head!”

The class went into hysteri-cal laughter. To Miss MacMil-

lan’s credit, she took it all posi-tively and apologized, and said, “I shouldn’t have done that, I am sorry.” A good role model, admitting honestly and right away that you do something that’s not so nice.

Grade 6 had my favourite teacher of all my years in school: Ken Bradley. Along with being a great teacher about every sub-ject, he was passionate about music and it came through ev-ery Friday afternoon.

After lunch he would use the first hour or so to play classical music on his record player with the old, 12-inch plastic records. As the music played he would often stop it and say something like, “Did you hear those vio-lins and how they affected how you feel?” or, “Didn’t that loud trumpet and drumming get you excited?” We learned about Beethoven and Mozart and so many more composers.

After the music he would then take an hour or more to read us from a book that was

not on the curriculum, like The Lost World, or 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea—many wonder-ful stories.

Whenever I go to a music concert now, Mr. Bradley is al-ways in the seat beside me. He was also the leader of the Grand Forks City Band, and made it a lot of fun for us all. He lived to be over 100 years old and at his 100th birthday party in Victoria he was up and about, walking, talking and really enjoying him-self and behaving much young-er than he was.

Finally, in elementary school Grade 8 as it was called then, we had Ray Orser, who lived on his farm in the valley. A tall and strong man, you always knew when something was bothering him as he would clench his fists and give you that look: measure up or move out.

The school day didn’t al-ways end at 3:30 for him. I re-member when we were teach-ing astronomy we had to meet

Opinion

Letters to the editor Throne speech lackingThe Legislative Assembly of British Columbia began a new sitting on

February 10, 2015 when Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) met in the legislature for the first time since the fall. Their actual meet-ing time will be 47 days. The legislature will adjourn in late May.

Lieutenant Governor, the Honourable Judith Guichon, OBC opened the 2015 Legislative Session--the 4th Ses-sion of the 40th Parliament--by reading the Speech From the Throne. Guichon does not write the speech; she reads what she is given.

The throne speech is traditionally a lavish affair that opens every session of the legislature. Its purpose is to set out the government’s broad goals and directions and the initiatives it intends to take on behalf of British Colum-bians.

Throne speeches for 2013, 2014 and 2015 are different in their messages. In 2013 the emphasis was on strengthening the economy by increasing trade with Asian countries and including liquefied natural gas (LNG) as a sought after fossil fuel. Premier Christy Clark talked about it as “the cleanest non-renewable fuel on the planet” and the government sees its export as “one of the greatest economic opportunities our province has ever seen.”

Should the liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry ever become a reality, royalties from the sale of it would stashed away in the British Columbia Prosperity Fund, a fund that could exceed one trillion dollars by 2040 or so we are told. Building a fund of such magnitude will depend on the size of the royalties.

B.C.’s prosperity fund would be used first to pay down the province’s debt of $18 billion and then to build the fund. That’s the plan, but it may never come to fruition.

The plan in 2014 was to continue economic development. “Economic de-velopment is about creating more opportunities for everyone, lifting people out of poverty, and allowing all citizens to reach their enormous potential.”

There is an admission in the 2015 throne speech of a fragile world econ-omy and unstable market conditions. The “fragility” is caused by the low price per barrel of crude oil. Such unstable conditions are worrisome for the government’s finance minister.

In spite of the global conditions the B.C. government is confident that the province will fare better than other provinces because of its diverse economy and its BC Jobs Plan “to strengthen our diverse economy and to stick to it with purposeful determination.”

The Jobs Plan was first introduced in 2011 and is spread across eight key sectors: International Education, Transportation, Forestry, Mining and En-ergy, Technology and the Green Economy, Tourism, Agrifoods, and Natural Gas. The government says it is delivering in all sectors and there are now 2.3 million people working in B.C.

To “grow the economy” the government proposes to: focus on small businesses, open three new B.C. offshore schools, renew the Softwood Lum-ber Agreement, introduce amendments to the Forestry Act, improve the per-mitting process for major mines, reduce red tape and processing times for land-based tenured tourism operations, launching a LNG-Buy BC program, and introduce a comprehensive LNG tax framework.

John Horgan, leader of the New Democratic Party, is reported to have stated, “We have a government today that brought forward a half hour of emptiness.”

Parliamentary reporters were also highly critical of the speech. A reporter for The Vancouver Sun stated that it was “mainly recycled old themes and promised only housekeeping items in an effort to deal with unstable eco-nomic conditions.”

Michael Smith, a parliamentary reporter for The Province stated, “All-in-all, the speech was a tale that contained no sound, no fury and still signified nothing. Whoever wrote it deserves a medal.”

Is that all there is? The details are sketchy but there was one new thing mentioned in the speech, a Medal of Good Citizenship to recognize exem-plary volunteers. Now that is exemplary!

Rousing the Rabble

ROY RONAGHAN

Is city in violation of plumbing code?Editor, The Gazette:

This is something that the residents of Grand Forks really should know: By using “certi-fied water meter installers” instead of certified plumbers to install water meters, the former mayor and council of Grand Forks have violated the BC Plumbing Code. The code is very specific:

“1.2.3.1. Personnel Performing Plumbing Work

1) Personnel performing the installation, ex-tension, alteration, renewal or repair of a plumb-ing system shall

a) possess a Canadian tradesman’s qualifica-tion certification as a plumber,

b) be an indentured apprentice supervised by a journeyman who meets the criteria set out in Clause (a), or

c) be the registered owner and occupant or in-tended occupant of the single family dwelling in which the plumbing work will occur.”

These building codes are in place to ensure our homes are up to standards of safety, and in-surance companies insist on code compliance. Apparently the city’s insurance will cover any issue that may arise from a faulty in-home wa-ter meter installation, but will their insurer re-ally cover work that didn’t comply with building codes?

Professionals who earn their degrees, trades-people who earn their certificates, white collar or blue, might be appalled at this breach of stan-dards. It takes years of hard work and dedication to become a doctor, engineer, teacher, plumber, electrician, any professional.

The standards that are set as to who can do the

work in these professional categories are there for a reason, not to be arbitrarily applied by a lo-cal city council.

Sure, anyone with the basic skills could have installed these meters, but it’s the principle of the thing, the way it was done. Does this mean we don’t have to adhere to the BC Building Codes in Grand Forks?

And, the irony of the situation is that the city itself, to my understanding, is responsible for en-forcing the building codes. Double standard?

To be clear, this code violation has nothing to do with city staff… they got their marching or-ders from former mayor and council, and had to comply.

One additional point in the plumbing code:“1.2.1.2. Responsibility of Owner Unless otherwise specified in this Code, the

owner of a building shall be the person responsi-ble for carrying out the provisions of this Code in relation to plumbing systems for that building.”

So, in sort of a tricky twist, council had vio-lated the plumbing code, but per the code the homeowner is responsible for the violation.

This is not an argument against water meters; already stated my opinion on that. This is about the way it was done. The water meter program in Grand Forks was ill planned and just plain wrong on so many levels.

The meters should never have been installed inside our homes to begin with, violating our pri-vacy and potentially harming our health. Violat-ing the plumbing code just added insult to injury.

Jack Koochin,Grand Forks

Councillors backtrack on water metersEditor, The Gazette: Council’s acknowledgement of water meter-ing as an equitable system of monitoring and paying for the increasingly precious commod-ity sounds the death knell on the seats of Mayor Konrad and Cllrs. Butler and Wirishagin, all three of whom were elected on a rotten plank in otherwise skimpy platforms; repudiation of the metering programme was the only arrow in their otherwise bereft quivers and it’s time to pay the piper.

Even allowing their names to be associated with such a speciously fallacious campaign – perhaps even fuelling those nasty little embers - was a dereliction of democratic principles and they are left with the moral imperative to clean out their lockers and vacate the premises. Soon-er rather than later, there is much to be done. A prompt by-election beckons.

And, even being as big-hearted as I know I can be, it is very difficult to understand Cllr. Butler’s appointment to the water rates commit-tee because she, perhaps more than anyone else, stood four-square for the destruction of the ini-

tiative. It feels to me like slipping a fox into the chicken coop because I fail to see how she could possibly function even-handedly.

Given large swimming pools, midnight sprinklers, and the grow-ops the Nuesslers mentioned in their letter of a couple of weeks ago, I wish the water rates committee fair sail-ing; theirs is an onerous task. I didn’t volunteer to sit because I lean too far towards detecting miscreants and dealing with them rather more punitively than leniently. Committee will have to find something more middle of the road to avoid rocking a boat that has already weath-ered stormy waters – no pun intended. I doubt they’ll satisfy everyone.

I believe that with a renewed council and the steady hand of CAO Doug Allin returned to the tiller, the future bodes well for our community and wish us all well in getting back to the sub-stantive tasks at hand. My appreciation to the staff who so ably stepped up to the plate in his absence. We are a well-blessed community.

Dave Milton,Grand Forks.

Letters to the editor

Appalled at vaccine cartoon Editor, The Gazette:

I know, I know it’s just a cartoon, right? Wrong! The Grand Forks Gazette ran a cartoon on the

editorial page of Feb. 18th’s paper which I find truly appalling. I am a 42-year-old man with three children and amazingly enough I, my wife and my three children have NEVER had ANY vaccinations! That goes for my siblings as well.

I fall ill far less than people in my age group as is the same with my wife and kids.

Looking at this truly ridiculous cartoon, it implies that people who do not subscribe to the idea of introducing toxic chemicals (mercury, etc.) and a cocktail of trace virus into their bodies are somehow dangerous to people who choose such a route is borderline brain damaged.

Think about this for a moment. You have your shot so you’re more protected, right? Then in what possible way can a non-vaccinated person

be a threat to you!? This vaccination propaganda which is sweep-

ing North America is utterly stupid and com-pletely unfounded! You go ahead and trust Big Pharma, that’s your choice but do not mock me for not following blindly. The CDC has admit-ted that this year’s flu vaccine was completely worthless in combating this year’s flu bugs, so who is dangerous? I have not fallen ill without the shot, have you with it?

Inform yourself about the history of the vacci-nation industry and the effects that it has had on millions throughout the world. Please use some common sense, Gazette, and don’t run any car-toons that belittle the people’s right to choose for themselves....it’s beneath you.

Silver Kettle sidewalk a step closerCRAIG LINDSAYGrand Forks Gazette

Plans to put a sidewalk outside Silver Kettle are getting closer to finalization.

The item has been added to the 2015-19 fi-nancial plan review agenda as a new capital re-quest under the manager of development and engineering, but still requires approval from council.

“It was brought up…as a possible capital budget project,” said Coun. Wirischagin. “Un-til the plan is adopted, we won’t know if it is in or out. But the first draft shows it as being in the budget. There are different options that we spoke about in the Committee of the Whole such as whether to use asphalt or concrete. Each comes with differing pros and cons and a huge difference in cost.”

Wirischagin said putting in a sidewalk in that location will be very beneficial to residents.

“Between the Silver Kettle and the Gables,

being able to have proper access between those facilities and Dick Bartlett Park, the pool, the arena, the curling rink. Making it so kids and seniors have the ability to walk safely and not have to walk down the middle of the road would be a real benefit to those who live in that area and the community as a whole.”

The proposed sidewalk would be installed along 72nd Avenue from 19th Street to 27th Street. The reason cited in the original request was a desperate need for a safe walkway along the public street in front of the village. The side-walk would provide walking access to shop-ping (Extra Foods) and to recreation facilities (Rec Centre), as well as connect to the sidewalk on 19th Street which leads to multiple facilities and locations.

The cost of an asphalt sidewalk would be $67,000, while a concrete sidewalk would be $158,000. Additional costs for removing fences, reshaping existing subgrade and driveway tie-ins would be approximately $17,500.

budget,” he said. “That’s not to say I’m not ea-ger to think about some big, new projects but it’s still too early to budget for them because there is a lot of work that would have to go into it.”

Russell said he would love to see a commu-nity hall at some point in rural Grand Forks but admits they are a long way from budgeting for it.

He also said that assuming the budget doesn’t change much, residential taxes will have a small increase.

The tax rates are set by the surveyor of taxes based on how much money each regional district area needs.

The general residential tax rate for rural Grand Forks in 2014 was 0.56. Russell explained the 2015 tax rates will come out after area D and other regional districts send their final budgets in.

Russell said there were many good questions asked by residents during question period at the end of the meeting.

“People wanted to know more about the or-ganic recycling (green bin) program,” he said. “I’m thrilled with how this program has been picked because it’s going to save us money. The green bin helps divert waste from filling up the landfill.”

Russell said that as the landfill fills up, the regional district has to be more money into the closure reserve.

“Aside from being an environment win is also a win directly on people’s tax assessments,” he

said.Russell also thanked members of the advisory

planning commission (APC), which help advise directors on land issues. He also talked about the animal control contract with the Commission-aires which is going very well.

Last year (2014), RDKB residents paid a total of $7,211,935 in property taxes with $1,560,997 coming from area D. The total annual budget in 2014 was $17,333,155.

In the proposed 2015 budget, the total annual budget is $20,338,821 and the property taxes are $7,136,460 with $1,574,842 from area D residents.

The total tax paid by area D residents is up $13,845 from 2014.

The assessment rate for properties in area D is down 0.92 per cent from 2014 ($393,010,556) to 2015 ($389,393,922).

Most costly services for RDKB area D are:Region-wide services:Environmental planning and zoning at

$86,610 (area D contribution – 2015) down $112 from 2014; and

Regionalized waste management at $85,375 (area D contribution - 2015) down $543 from 2014.

Electoral area D services:Grand Forks rural fire protection at $320,689

(area D contribution – 2015) up $689 from 2014; and Grand Forks Aquatic Centre at $246,225 (area D contribution – 2015) up $8,076 from 2014.

Historical group meetsThe Boundary Historical Society celebrated its 64th anniversary luncheon on Saturday at the Seniors’ Centre in Grand Forks City Park. About 60 members filled the hall for a baked potato luncheon with all the trimmings. President Les Johnson (above) presented a video about preserving history in today’s popular formats—the future is our past, he says. The annual luncheon is an opportunity for members from throughout the region to come together to socialize, but was made special this year as it was also the launch of the society’s 16th report.

he confirmed that he had the correct numbers. He spoke to the Gazette over the phone from there.

He said he was pretty calm when he found out and that the ladies at Pharmasave were more excited.

“I was pretty excited but I didn’t want to show too much,” said Senger. “I noticed that the check-a-ticket machine had a lot of writing on it and I thought is said ‘not a winner.’ When I looked closer, it was a five and a lot of zeros.”

With eight children, 18 grand-children, eight great-grandchildren and nine brothers and sis-ters, Senger has a large family to share in all the excitement.

Senger said he hasn’t told too many people other than close relatives. He hasn’t made any big plans yet for the money.

“I think I’m just going to bring it home and deposit it in the credit union, I guess,” he said. “I’ll think about it for awhile.”

Roots rocker coming to Grand ForksWith over 40 years of musical journeying be-

hind him, Stephen Palmer has a story or two to tell.

Originally a guitarist working in country bands, rock bands and just about any kind of band, Palmer didn’t start singing as a soloist until the ‘80s when some unexpected life changes pre-sented him with an opportunity to study music with a more thorough dedication.

Now touring as a solo act, Palmer entertains his audiences with a unique blend of country-roots, folk, blues and ragtime with plenty of toe tappin’ tunes and praise-worthy guitar picking.

Said to resemble both John Prine and Leonard Cohen, Palmer’s versatility is evident by the skill-ful delivery of songs and tunes crossing numer-ous musical genres.

Expect to hear some of Palmer’s original work, and some well-loved classics. Be prepared to sing along; Palmer likes to get his audiences in on the act.

Presented by Alive! Entertainment Group, Palmer will be

entertaining local audiences at gallery 2 in Grand Forks on Friday, Feb. 27. The show starts at 7:30 p.m.

Tickets are available at Pharmasave, gallery 2 and Koko-mos, $10 advance and $15 at the door.

MICHELE CIPRESSI DEANfor the Grand Forks Gazette

GFSS hosting traveling film festLARRY HUDEMAfor the Grand Forks Gazette

On Friday, Feb 27 at 7 p.m., the No Boundaries Film Club will be opening the 10th an-nual Grand Forks showing of the Traveling World Community Film Festival (TWCFF) in the Grand Forks Secondary School auditorium.

The TWCFF is B.C.’s longest running social issues film festival, started in the Comox Valley by the World Community Development Education Society in 1990.

Opening films are Reaching Blue: Finding Hope Beneath the Surface, a beautifully filmed 22-minute journey in which an oyster farmer, writer and ocean scientist share their thoughts on the challenges faced by a coastal life style; and All the Time in the World: Disconnecting to Reconnect, a tale of a family of five (kids aged 4, 8, and 10) that unplugs……really unplugs as in no electricity (TV, phone, Internet) or running water for nine months in the Yukon, including during the depths of the northern winter.

This delightfully Swiss Family Robinsonish (with a non-tropical twist) flick won Audience Favourite at both the Vancouver International Film Festival and the Victoria Film Festival.

Here’s why the documentary format is likable: It lends a deeper perspective to the news bits that imbed themselves in our collective consciousness. It helps to take the illusionary edge off the sometimes distorted partial truths dispensed by media, the result often being fear and a sense of uncertainty.

We all (save for the severely delusional) want the best for ourselves, our kids and, in short, a better cleaner world, sans conflict. Beneath the cultural veneers we share core values and challenges. Something else the doc does is expose the morally deficient that manage to dodge the nightly news.

The doc also allows us to peer into the lives of just plain remarkable, uplifting people, be they artists, farmers, social activists, fishers, mechanics, visionaries, scientists, illuminated spiritual leaders, or any combination thereof.

The documentary film also reminds us of just what an incredible world we live in, what an intriguing species we are and that we are not beneath facing challenge. It is a valuable asset on our way forward. At the end of the weekend you will feel inspired.

As in years past, the Boundary Peace Initiative will be providing absolutely delicious fare for the event, culminating in the raffling of the remaining borscht (should there be any left). The meals and snacks are served in the multi-purpose room close to the auditorium and offer, during lunches, evening meals and the longer breaks, an opportunity to socialize and maybe discuss the merits of previously viewed films or the potentials of upcoming ones.

The festival will close with Alive Inside, a joyous homage to and cinematic exploration of music’s capacity to reawaken our souls and uncover the deepest parts of our humanity.

Social worker Dan Cohen uses music to combat memory loss and restore a deep sense of self to those suffering from it. Some of you may recognize the pattern. No Boundaries has traditionally polished off the weekend with an uplifting, usually, musical film. Some habits are just too hard to break, especially when they inspire a smile, outright grin and/or a tear of joy. This film won the Audience Award at Sundance.

A cursory glance at the admissions will show you they are the same smokin’ deals they were in 2006: $20 for a festival pass, $10 for low income; and $5/session (morning, afternoon, evening), $3 for low income. GFSS stu-dents are free. Passes available at the door only.

The program for the film festival can be viewed at noboundariesfilm-club.weebly.com or at a variety of establishments around Grand Forks: Ko-como’s, Jogas and the Wooden Spoon to name just a few

Girls in Action busyGirls in Action celebrated their

Scrap wire stolen from Telus

On Feb. 10 at 6:25 a.m., police received a report of someone stealing scrap wire from the Telus lot on Third Street.

“A female suspect was apprehended and a bunch of scrap metal was found a distance away from her but could not be positively as-sociated to her,” said Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison.

The scrap metal was returned to Telus. At this point, police do not have enough infor-mation to lay charges.

Drunk driver walks into police station

On Feb. 16 at 10:20 a.m. and individual entered the police station on Central Avenue. Upon leaving, it was noticed by the clerk that he appeared to be intoxicated.

“He hopped into his vehicle and drove away,” said Harrison. “A constable gave pur-suit and found him on 22nd Street on High-way 3.”

The individual took two roadside breatha-lyzer tests resulting in failures.

“As a result, he received a 90-day imme-diate roadside prohibition and a 30-day im-pound of the vehicle.”

The individual involved is a 53-year-old Grand Forks male.

Stolen tools

On Feb. 16, RCMP received a complaint of stolen tools from a house on 17th Avenue in Grand Forks.

“It was unknown when they were stolen but over the previous couple of days,” said Harrison. “Stolen were a cordless drill, jig-saw, skill saw, orbital sander, a gasket hole punch and a drill index.”

The estimated value of the tools is $400. “It appears there was also an attempt to

open a locked shed; however, entry wasn’t gained,” said Harrison.

At this point, police have no suspects and no witnesses.

No valid driver’s licence

On Feb. 17 at 2:58 p.m., police stopped a vehicle on the highway and found out that the driver did not have a valid driver ’s licence.

“As a result, the driver was charged for having no driver ’s licence and was also served a notice of suspension for too many points on his licence,” said Harrison.

The individual charged was a 54-year-old Greenwood male.

Another drunk driver

On Feb. 18 at 8:41 p.m., a constable was east-bound on Highway 3 when he observed a vehicle approaching with only one head-light working.

“As a result of the stop the officer detected that the driver had been drinking,” said Har-rison. “A roadside screening device deter-mined two fails after two samples given.”

As a result, a 90-day immediate driving prohibition was issued as well as a 30-day ve-

hicle impoundment. The driver was a 64-year-old Grand Forks

male.

Multiple vehicle accident

On Feb. 21 at 12:36 p.m., police received a report of a motor vehicle accident involving three vehicles on 16th Street and 75th Avenue in Grand Forks.

“Police attended and spoke to the com-plainant who heard the crash outside her home and went outside and saw the colli-sion,” said Harrison. “It appears the driver drove her car without due care and attention on 16th Street northbound, wandered to the right edge of her lane, jumped over a snow pile, continued 100 feet straight before rear-ended a parked truck, which then struck an-other vehicle parked in front of it.”

Harrison said there were no injuries but there was extensive damage to the young la-dy’s vehicle, which was towed.

The driver, a 24-year-old Christina Lake fe-male, was charged with driving without due care and attention.

Stolen motorcycle

On Feb. 22 at 10:26 a.m. police received a report of a stolen motorcycle on Riverside Drive.

“It appears that overnight someone stole a motorcycle from a residence on Riverside Drive,” said Harrison. “The complainant had loaded his bike into his truck the previ-ous night and discov-ered it missing in the morning.”

The motorcycle is described as a white 2010 Yamaha YZ450 with smoke-grey let-tering 68 on the front.

At this point police have no suspects or witnesses. No one in the area saw anything suspicious, said Har-rison.

Number of files

There were 88 po-lice files last week in Grand Forks and Midway.

The goal of the Pink Shirt Day campaign is to raise $300,000 to fund local anti-bullying programs and you can be a part of this amazing campaign!

Bullying and CyberbullyingBullyingBullying happens when there is an imbal-

ance of power; where someone purposely and repeatedly says or does hurtful things to someone else. Bullying can occur one on one or in a group(s) of people. � ere are many di� erent forms of bullying:◼ Physical bullying (using your body or objects to cause harm): includes hitting, punching, kick-ing, spitting or breaking someone else’s belongings.◼ Verbal bullying (using words to hurt someone): includes name calling, put-downs, threats and teasing.◼ Social bullying (using your friends and relationships to hurt someone): includes spreading rumours, gossiping, excluding others from a group or making others look foolish or unintel-ligent. � is form of bullying is most common among girls (Cana-dian Children’s Rights Council).

CyberbullyingCyberbullying involves the use of communication technologies such as the Internet, social network-ing sites, websites, email, text messaging and instant messaging to repeatedly intimidate or harass others.Cyberbullying includes:• Sending mean or threatening emails or text/instant messages.• Posting embarrassing photos of someone online.• Creating a website to make fun of others.• Pretending to be someone by using their name.• Tricking someone into revealing

personal or embarrassing information and sending it to others.

Cyberbullying a� ects victims in di� erent ways than traditional

bullying. It can follow a victim everywhere 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, from school, to the mall and all the way into the comfort of their home - usually safe from traditional forms of bullying.

Bullying and the LawBullying can be a traumatic experi-ence, and some forms of bullying can even be considered illegal. � ese include:• � reats – whether done face to

face, online, over the phone or through text messaging.

• Assaults – including push-ing, tripping, slapping, hitting or spitting.

• � eft of personal items – like a backpack, books, electronic devices, etc.

• Harassment – repeated tormenting on-line, with texts, phone calls and/or emails.

• Sexual Exploitation – sharing videos or photos with nudity of people under 18.

• Hate crime – bullying based on ethnicity, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, etc.

For all of these criminal o� ences, it is important to notify your local police or report it to CYBERTIP.CA. Based on the available information, police will decide if an investigation is warranted and whether charges may be laid.

What You Can DoYouthIf you are a victim of bullying• Walk away or leave the online conversa-tion.• Keep track of the bullying (write it down

and/or save a screenshot of the online message).

• Tell a trusted adult. If you don’t trust anyone or need to speak with someone urgently, contact the con� dential, toll-free Kids Help Phone: 1-800-668-6868.

• Report the bullying to school administra-tors.• Report criminal o� ences, such as threats,

assaults and sexual exploitation to the local police detachment.

• Report unwanted text messages to your telephone service provider.

• Report online bullying to the social media site and block the person responsible.

– Facebook – YouTube - Safety Centre – Twitter – Instagram – block a user or report something – Tumblr – how to “ignore” (block) someone

If you know

someone whois being bullied...

Most types of bullying go on as

long as someone is watching and laugh-ing. As a bystander, know that you have

the power to stop the bullying. 60% of the

time, bullying stops in less than 10 seconds when someone steps in (Kids Help Phone).• If you feel it’s safe to do so, tell the bully to stop.• Find friends/students/youth or an adult

who can help stop it.• Befriend the person being bullied and lead

them away from the situation.• Report it to a teacher or school sta� .• Fill out an anonymous letter and drop it

o� to a teacher or any adult you trust.AdultsIf you know or think that a child is a victim of bullying...• Talk to them – Let them know that they

can trust you and that they shouldn’t deal with bullying alone.

• Help them: • document the bullying; • report unwanted text messages to their

telephone service provider, or cyberbul-lying to social media sites;

• report the bullying to school adminis-trators; and • report criminal o� ences, such as

threats, assaults,  harassment and sexual exploitation to the local police.

Here is a snippet of a Globe & Mail article that describes how Pink Shirt Day began:

David Shepherd, Travis Price and their teenage friends or-ganized a high-school protest to wear pink in sympathy with a Grade 9 boy who was being bullied [for wearing a pink shirt]...[� ey] took a stand against bullying when they protested against the harassment of a new Grade 9 student by distribut-ing pink T-shirts to all the boys in their school.

‘I learned that two people can come up with an idea, run with it, and it can do wonders,’ says Mr. Price, 17, who organized the pink protest. ‘Finally, someone stood up for a weaker kid.’

So Mr. Shepherd and some other headed o� to a discount store and bought 50 pink tank tops. � ey sent out message to schoolmates that night, and the next morning they hauled the shirts to school in a plastic bag.

As they stood in the foyer handing out the shirts, the bul-lied boy walked in. His face spoke volumes. ‘It looked like a huge weight was lifted o� his shoulders,’ Mr. Price recalled.

� e bullies were never heard from again.

Today, February 25, 2015 we encourage everyone to wear something pink to show that we are all working together to prevent bullying in our schools, in our communities and online. Pink Shirt Day comes from two Nova Scotia high school students, who decided to take a stand against bullying in their own school.

How it began

Suicide is de� ned as intentional, self-in� icted death. Experts in the � eld suggest that a person considering suicide is likely feeling so much pain and hopelessness that they can see no other option, other than death. � ey may even view suicide as the solution to a problem. Suicidal ideas and actions may be related to a mental health problem (like depression, anxiety, substance abuse). If identi� ed, and support and treatment are provided, the mental health problem can often be resolved. Most people who think of suicide do not want to die; they are in desperate need of support and help.

Suicides are also rarely the result of one single event. � ere are usu-ally many contributing factors and events that have occurred or developed over a period of time, with one “trigger”

event leading to thoughts or acts of suicide.

Youth suicide: what you need to know

Signs that your child is a bully

All talk of suicide or signs of suicidal behaviour must be taken seriously. Seek the helpof a mental health professional immediately – or, if your child needs help immediately because they are in imminent danger of hurti ng him/herself, go to the emergency room at your near-est hospital or call 9-1-1 (or your local police or authority, if you do not have 9-1-1).

event leading to thoughts or acts of suicide.

All talk of suicide or signs of suicidal behaviour must be taken seriously. Seek the help

The role of the bystander

A bystander is someone who sees or knows about bullying or other forms of violence that is happening to someone else; they can either be part of the problem (hurtful bystander) or part of the solution (helpful bystander). It’s easy to ignore incidents of bullying, or walk away thinking “at least it’s not me”.

But believe it or not, by doing nothing you are contributing to the problem — and you may be giving bullies the “okay” to carry on with their behaviour.

Research shows that bystanders can e� ectively stop bullying within 10 seconds of an intervention — so, what are you waiting for?

Children and youth who bully may show signs that they are using power aggressively, such as:

• Little concern for the feelings of others• Aggressive with siblings, parents, teachers, friends and animals• Bossy and manipulative to get his/her own way• Coming home with unexplained objects or extra money• Secretive about possessions, activities or where they have been• Easily frustrated and quickly angered• Believe aggression is an acceptable way to resolve con� icts• Abuse others physically or verbally• Get into � ghts and blame others for starting them• Have a need to dominate others• Have two or three friends who are also aggressive• Hang out with increasingly younger children• Quick to interpret accidents or neutral events as deliberate hostile acts

No worries...thanks to competent professionals

Consulting competent professionals

will help you to simplify the management

of your fi nances.

Are you one of those people who are easily worried about their fi nances? With the present economic situ-ation, it’s becoming more and more complex and dif-fi cult to effi ciently manage our fi nances, our estate and our investments. This can be a real headache, a task which some people can lose sleep over.

There is no magic formula to transform the manage-ment of our fi nances into an easy and foolproof un-dertaking. But consulting competent professionals can certainly help to simplify things and make them less onerous.

What kind of professionals are we talking about? Per-haps a good fi nancial advisor or planner can help you sort out your fi nancial situation and take the necessary measures either to correct a diffi cult situation or to help you achieve your objectives. An effi cient accountant will assist you in the sensible management of your affairs while limiting the amount of income taxes to be paid. A reputable fi nancial institution will be able to meet your credit needs, offering the right product for your particu-lar situation.

Other resources could also be of use: a good insur-ance broker to give you the protection you need as well as a real estate agent who can advise and help you dur-ing the purchase or the sale of your home.

Together, all these people, all these resources, can provide you with a valuable support system and can greatly simplify the management of your fi nances. This is the road to take to avoid problems... and to get a good night’s sleep.

McKinlay excels at university rowing competition

Larissa McKinlay of Grand Forks rows at the Monster Erg competition at the University of Victoria with some help from varsity rower Rebecca Zimmerman. McKinlay finished first in the women’s novice cat-egory. Submitted photo

CRAIG LINDSAYGrand Forks Gazette

Going from high school in a small town to university in a big city is a daunting task for anyone. Having to get up for 8:30 a.m. classes are no fun

at the best of time, but what about getting up at 5 a.m. to drive to a lake and row for two hours and then go to class?

For GFSS graduate and University of Victoria (UVic) first year student Larissa McKinlay, that’s reality and she wouldn’t have it any other way.

McKinlay ended up walking on and making the women’s novice rowing team. She also competed in a national monster erg (indoor seated rowing machine) competition and finished first in her category.

“I had no idea about the rowing team,” said McKinlay, who had never rowed before. “I had no experience rowing. They have a really good novice rowing program at UVic and they were recruiting students at the start of the year. They kept saying, ‘We have try-outs coming up. We have try-outs coming up. Come try out!’ So I decided to try it out.”

McKinlay played volleyball at GFSS throughout high school and played basketball until Grade 10. She graduated this past year and was accepted into UVic. She is taking pre-requisites for teaching.

McKinlay said she went to the try-outs and was one of 18 rowers selected out of around 60 who tried out.

“We started practice on the ergs and then got out on the water,” she said. “We had a regatta in the fall.”

The team practices twice a day, six days a week. “The team usually prac-tices at 5:45 a.m. every morning and then again in the afternoon either out at Elk Lake or to the gym on the ergs.”

McKinlay said getting up that early was tough when she started but now she wouldn’t have it any other way.

“It was hard at first but now I’m used to it and I love it,” she said. “Be-ing on the water when the sun rises—that’s amazing. My teammates have become my best friends. It just gets me going and off to a great start for the day.”

She also says she is in the best shape of her life after all the training. “I didn’t realize it was such a high intensity sport,” McKinlay admits. “It’s really got me in shape.”

She said the novice team struggled early on at their first regatta but has really im-proved since with all their hard work.

“It’s really cool to see the team come together,” said McKinlay. “We’re working as a team. Our balance in the boat has got better. We’re working as a crew a lot better.”

Winning the Monster Erg, which doubles as the Canadian Indoor Rowing Champi-onships, was a bit of a surprise for McKinlay. She was competing against rowers from throughout Canada in the 40th annual event in the women’s novice category. McKinlay won her category with a time of 7.25.

“I’ve never felt so much pain in my life,” she said. “I said to my friends that I didn’t

even remember the race because you just go unconsciously.”McKinlay said she was able to track her success as she rowed on a screen above the

rowing machine.“I also had one of the varsity rowers behind me the whole time coaching me, yelling

at me,” she said. “I could not walk after. I needed help after and went to a spin bike to spin out my legs. I was relieved to have been done but also very excited.”

McKinlay has a few more regattas with the novice team. She has set her sights on making the varsity rowing team next year.

“I’ve trained a couple of times with the varsity girls,” she said. “Next year should be the varsity level.”

McKinlay will be competing in the Elk Lake spring race on March 7 and 8. The team will then train in anticipation of the spring season opening regatta in Seattle on May 1 and 2.

Junior boys head into play-offs on winning streak

The Grand Forks Secondary junior boys bas-ketball team is clicking at the right time. Extend-ing back to February 14, the Wolves are 5-0 in competition against both the East and West Koo-tenays. The boys beat Golden and Fernie back to back on Saturday February 14 before continuing on and beating rival Stanley Humphries (Castle-gar) for the second time in February.

Coach Sean O’Brien credits the mid-season turnaround to a shift in defensive philosophy, and a more positive approach. The results are showing, as a young team who shakes hands, claps adamantly at hustle plays, and always picks up their team mates are starting to show a knack for winning close games. The Wolves most recent two games were in Nelson this weekend against top Ranked Mt. Sentinel and basketball powerhouse LV Rogers (Nelson) The Jr boys won the first game of the mini tournament in

convincing fashion beating Mt. Sentinel 56-42. Standout of the game was Noor Sibat who made four 3 pointers and was able to draw fouls from the opposition’s big men. Playing in back to back games, the Wolves were sloppy in the 4th quarter giving up a five point lead letting LV Rogers take them to overtime. “We were deflated, and de-feated, but i told my guys that if you act defeated then its over. you have already lost. It’s a great moment for me as a Coach because the boys got the message. They finished the game with a re-newed confidence and a second wind. We turned Nelson over twice and scored back to back up layups. It was awesome.” O’Brien can’t help to be happy but the Jr. Boys are not satisfied. They have the West Kootenay Finals at GFSS February 27th/28th.

“I encourage all people to get on board now. These kids are going to be good,” said O’Brien.

Grand Forks plays Salmo at 4:15PM Friday to begin tournament play.

Narrow loss for senior Wolves nets fourth Gazette Staff Grand Forks Secondary senior girls basketball

team finished fourth at Kootenay A play-offs in Nakusp on Saturday. GFSS lost their opener to top seeded Fernie Falcons 42-26 despite eight points from Katrina Makortoff. Fernie, the top seeded team at the tournament and 9th ranked team in B.C. for single A, used pres-sure defence and aggressive play to get the victory.

In the third place game, the Wolves faced nearby rivals Boundary Cen-tral from Midway. GFSS had lost four times before to the Roadrunners in-cluding several times by more than 30. GFSS kept it close the whole game but struggled to score and eventually fell 51-48 in their last game of the season. Grade 10 guard Alyssa Makortoff led GFSS with 14 points.

“It’s been a tough season with having to merge the junior and senior players as one senior team,” said coach Craig Lindsay. “But these girls that stuck it out have been committed and worked hard and improved more than any team I’ve coached in 25 years.”

After losing their first 10 games by margins of 35 plus, the Wolves have had two wins over AA schools and three of their four losses were by five points or less.

“They’ve just made so many strides everywhere but particularly on de-fence where we’re 100 per cent better than we were two weeks ago,” said Lindsay. “Offensively we struggled a bit to score, but we passed well and did a good job getting open.”

passed away at Hardy View Lodge surrounded by his family.

Adolf is survived by his wife Shirley and their children Elaine Napier (Craig), Madonna Taylor (Kevin), Paula Franz and Allan Franz, grand children Megan and Derrick.

He is also survived by his sister Rosie Plamondon (Denis) and their three sons; David, Chris and Mark and their families, brother-in-laws Bob Johnson (Lau-ra), their children Joe and Susanne and their families, Murray Johnson (Patsy) and their sons David and Michael and their families. His sister-in-laws Donna Balogh (Paul) and their sons Greg and Wayne and their families and Carol Johnson and her sons Bob, Jim and Tony and their families.

Adolf was born in Kelowna and met his wife of 60 years, Shirley in Oliver. They married in March 1954 and made Osoyoos their home, during that time their four children were born.

In 1970 they moved to Grand Forks and Adolf began his career with Mutual Life of Canada as a life underwriter and fi nancial planner. He enjoyed being a member of the Gyro club of Grand Forks and loved to spend long days golfi ng with his wife and friends.

Most of all Adolf was a fun loving man who loved music, cars, travel and spending time with family and friends. He will be dearly missed by all that he knew and will forever be in our hearts. Special thanks to the doctors and nurses at the Boundary Hospital and the staff at the Hardy View Lodge.

In memory of Adolf you are welcome to make a donation to the Pines Bible Camp or the Alzheimers Society of B.C.

A private family burial was held at Evergreen Cem-etery prior to the memorial service which was held at Gospel Chapel on Monday, February 23rd at 2:00 p.m.

Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Grand Forks Funeral Home [email protected]

It is with great sadness that the family of Norman Stevenson announces his passing after a brief illness, on Saturday, January 17, 2015, at the age of 61 years.

He is survived by his wife, and best friend of 30 years, Cheryl Unger, daughter Nichole, son Brad (Allie), his grandchildren Tayler, Harley, Annie, and Kaitlin, by his siblings Barb (Joe) Cornish, Tim, Jennifer (Brian) Karp, Wilf (Pam) and many nieces and nephews. Norm was predeceased by his parents, Tom and Joyce Stevenson, and brother John Steven-son.

Norm had a varied career, fi rstly 10 years with the BC Forest Service Marine Depot in Vancouver, and then 20 years as a benchman for West Fraser in Hin-ton Alberta, from where he retired in 2008 to Christi-na Lake, B.C. He returned to work as a summer relief benchman for a few years for Interfor in Castlegar.

Norm loved living life. He enjoyed meeting people and made all he met feel like they had always been friends. Fishing was his passion, and nothing was better than a sunny day in the boat with a good buddy. Storytelling around the campfi re with old and new friends was his forte. Norm had a real me-chanical aptitude and he could build, fi x, replace and repair anything he set his mind to. If he didn’t have a project he was looking to help you with yours.

Norm’s retirement dream was to settle in Os-oyoos, which he did in 2013.

A celebration of life will be held 11:00 a.m. May 9, 2015 at the Osoyoos United Church.

Condolences and tributes may be directed to the family by visiting:

“It is not the length of life, but depth of life”*

Fighting hunger an ongoing battleHunger matters, and many people and

organizations in the Boundary are fighting hunger on an ongoing basis. But, how do we know if we’re successful?

The usual way is to study statistics, and if that’s all we look at, then I’m pleased to be able to say that in 2014 we actually had a small drop (1.5 per cent) in the number of hampers distributed as well as in the num-ber of people served (-3.5 per cent).

Unfortunately, the numbers are still far higher (30+ per cent) than at the beginning of the recession in 2008, and we continue to add new clients at an alarming rate.

At the end of 2014 we deemed 59 client files as inactive—these are clients who did not come in at all in the previous year. Success, right? Maybe not. We started 70 new client files during 2014 and this year we had already started 12 new files by the end of January.

Perhaps success, for a food bank, can be better measured by considering the $53,000 plus worth of food donated by the community and passed on to our clients; or by the financial donations that allowed us to spend almost $36,000 on food

(most of it locally) for our clients—including 2,800 litres of milk for children 16 and under.

Perhaps success can be BEST measured by the gratitude of our clients, the smiles, the thank-yous, the hugs. Every client whose use of our services enables them to keep a roof over their head, or keeps their children from going to school (or to bed) with a growling tummy or helps to reduce their stress load so they can

better focus on finding employment or more affordable hous-ing means the food bank, along with other hunger-fighting agencies, are successes.

You can be a part of it. Donations of quality, healthy food items, cash donations, and volunteering are all important parts of that success. You can even help your heirs deal with your estate’s final income taxes by leaving a bequest in your will!

It will take more than the food bank or the local soup kitch-en to eradicate hunger in the Boundary, but as long as it exists, you can continue to help us help our clients, one smile, one not-so-empty stomach at a time. Hunger matters and it’s up to all of us to deal with it.

Bernard Frank Hartinger died in his bed at his home on the Chilliwack River on February 7, 2015 after a lengthy illness (49 years) of Multiple Sclerosis, at age 76. His last 16 years were spent as a quadriplegic in a wheelchair or bed.Bernie was born in Grand Forks, BC on June 15, 1938 to Frank and Erma (Spiller) Hartinger. His only sibling Frances was 9 years older. Bernie’s great grandfather (1861-1924) had the Grand Forks Hotel built in 1907. His parents owned and operated the Grand Forks Hotel until they sold it in 1944.Bernie’s primary and secondary education was in Grand Forks and his post secondary education was in Nelson, BC at Notre Dame College. Sometimes when a person put on “airs” Bernie would tell them that he graduated from Notre Dame College with a “BAC” (Bounced At Christmas in his 2nd year).Bernie and Ruth deWilde were married in 1962. They had three beautiful children together before Ruth died while celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary in Vancouver.He is survived by his three children, Catherine, Peter and Rick (Diana), four grandchildren, Kristina, Christopher (Natalie), Samantha (Peter) and Alicia (Chris); three great grandchildren, Kylie, Ryan and Marley.Bernie is also survived and missed immensely by his wife of 31 years Gail Bell and their two dogs Victor/Victoria and Repita.Bernie was predeceased by his parents Frank (1980) and Erma (1995) Hartinger; sister Frances (1981) and fi rst wife Ruth (1982).Hardy (Bernie) worked in Grand Forks, Prince George, Quesnel and Trail. In his mining career Hardy worked in open pit or underground mines at Jedway Iron Ore (Queen Charlotte Islands), Brynnor Mines, Boss Mountain Div. (Hendrix Lake near 100 Mile house), Granisle Copper (Babine Lake) and Similkameen Mining Co. (Princeton). Hardy, Ruth and their children made their home in most of Hardy’s career moves.During his career Hardy had a variety of jobs from electrician’s helper, welder’s helper, auto body apprentice, dump truck driver, D9 cat skinner, backhoe and loader operator, chief surveyor, heavy duty truck driver, shift supervisor and mine general foreman. In 1986 Bernie had to quit his general foreman job in Princeton due to the progression of MS. In 1989 Bernie and Gail moved to Chilliwack. In 1990 they moved to their home the beautiful Chilliwack River Valley. Bernie enjoyed travelling within Canada, USA, Barbados and Mexico.He shoots, he scored! - In hockey, curling, basketball, baseball, in hunting, fi shing, camping, water skiing, in photography, and in computer photo repair. In the Grand Forks Gazette newspaper: * March 23, 1954 - With 5 min left in the game Bernie Hartinger scored on a diffi cult shot. Bernie Hartinger, always a strong-man for the team, showed his ability at playing both ways on the ice, attacking and defending well. Assists were given Fred Fedorak and Bernie Hartinger for Morris’s goal. * March 24, 1955 - B. Hartinger (def)…GP-20 G-7 A-23 TP-30 PIM -6. * Year-End Round-Up HARTINGER TOPS - Turning to the individual members of the team, the coach labeled Bernard Hartinger as the best “all around sport” and hardest working member of the Flyers. *March 9, 1961 - Grand Forks Curlers

take most prizes at Greenwood weekend ‘spiel. Bus Wilkins and his rink of Wm. Sookochoff Jr., Bernard Hartinger and Jim Henniger took the “A” event with the Greenwood Curling Club Trophy.Whatever Bernie did he usually did well. Wherever Bernie went he made friends. Everybody loved Bernie. His numerous old and new friends miss his sense of adventure, his unique sense of humour and his jokes - “Shoulda bought a hat Bert, shoulda bought a hat.”In friends’ own words Bernie was Hardy, loyal, friendly, honest, competitive, compassionate, intelligent, funny, stubborn, sensitive, sentimental, strong, self determined, persevering and gentle-hearted. Bernie was a man of integrity. He touched so many of our lives in a positive way. Bernie was a social democrat with NDP stickers attached to his wheelchair. Bernie was phenomenal at driving and parallel parking his chin-operated wheelchair. The following are Bernie’s written words…”This is a beautiful valley. Living along the river is great. The sound of the river lulls us to sleep at night. We get a beautiful view of the river and the mountain from our deck. Ducks, geese, herons, eagles, deer, the odd bear and once a young cougar was 25ft up our neighbour’s cedar tree. Years ago we had an old raccoon visit us every night on the front deck. We even had a mother opossum with her baby living under our shed. Quite often we hear coyotes in the far distance. While out walking the dogs one morning in the park, Gail took photos of a beaver travelling on foot down a little stream. The beaver was about 10ft away from her.”“In the winter we put bird seed on the deck railing. The Steller’s Jay, the Varied Thrush and a squirrel get the east railing and the Juncos, Chickadees, Sparrows and the Rufous-sided Towhees get the west railing. Yesterday Gail and I saw 2 adult Bald Eagles fl ying together up river. We also have a Heron who seems to have claimed the river in front of our place. When the salmon are running, the sky above the river is alive with the sight and sound of many birds. We do live in a paradise. What more can we ask for?”There will be no service by request. Donations made to Bernie’s charity The Stephen Lewis Foundation, would be appreciated.

Farewell Bernie…until we meet again.

Celebrating heritageStudents from Mrs. Garrison’s grade 4/5 class at Perley Elementary enjoy the heritage display at gallery 2. Explaining the display was Dawsha Hunt of the tourism centre.

Craig Lindsay photo

him one evening after dark out in the school yard and he pointed out the ma-jor constellations for us as well as setting up a stand with an apple box on it so we could calculate the latitude of the North

Star—49 degrees as it turned out. One of the great events of spring was the May Day celebration. Elementary

school students danced around the two May Poles set up in the school’s front yard, and the Grade 8 students chose the May Queen.

We spent much of the week before putting up the bleachers for the parents and many others to sit in as we performed a play as well (Peer Gynt). It was the year I was in Grade 8.

In addition to the teachers, there were two other outstanding mentors: Constables Reg McKernan and Bill Dunn, both RCMP officers. They were our baseball coaches as well as good friends. They got to know us by name and always were looking for the good things we did.

There were so many good mentors for us: Drs. Perley and Tomashewsky, who not only cared for people, they care about them. And the Doukhobor community—that is a whole new column ready soon.
