Home invasion accused headed
for trial
C AROLYN GR [email protected]
The City of Kimberley had completed its Climate Action Report for 2013, and will be submitting it to the province.
Since signing the Climate Action Charter in 2007, Kimberley committed to the goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2012. Commu-nities who signed the charter are eligible to receive a grant which offsets the carbon tax.
In addition to striving for carbon neutral-
ity, communities must measure and report on greenhouse gas emissions and work to-wards being a “complete, compact and en-ergy efficient community”.
While it has been generally acknowl-edged that reaching carbon neutrality is not a realistic goal, Kimberley’s GHG emissions were down considerably in 2013 — to 1,236 tons of carbon dioxide emitted from 1,612 in 2012. This was primarily due to a major up-grade at the Aquatic Centre, which was one of the biggest GHG producers, as well as
continued behavioural shifts.Coun. Jack Ratcliffe, in addressing the
issue, said he would take the opportunity to “rant”.
Ratcliffe said that while there was no doubt that climate change is occurring, he was not impressed with the way the whole world was addressing it.
He pointed out that Canada was well down the list in terms of emissions. In fact, he said, the yearly increase in emissions from the biggest offender, China, was larger
than Canada’s total emissions.“This needs a massive action, something
on the scale of the Manhatten Project, and we’re messing around changing light bulbs,” Ratcliffe said.
Coun. Kent Goodwin said that while he agreed that greater action needed to be taken, Canada’s emissions were low due to a low population density and per capita emis-sions were close to the highest in the world.
“But absolutely, changing light bulbs is not going to do it,” he said.

Two people charged over a series of home invasions in Cranbrook have pleaded not guilty and are headed for trials later this year.
On Monday, March 3, Megan Sands ap-peared via video in Cranbrook Provincial Court and entered not guilty pleas on all 16 charges against her. She has chosen to have a trial before a provincial court judge. A date will be set for her trial on March 31.
One of her co-accused, Jay Hills, has also pleaded not guilty and is headed to trial in Cranbrook provincial court on June 17.
Meanwhile, Terrence Allan appeared in Cranbrook court on Monday and told Judge Grant Sheard that he plans to plead guilty to the charges he faces. In the meantime, he re-mains in custody awaiting a bail hearing. Allan will next appear in Cranbrook court on March 17.
The final of the home invasion accused, Andrew Monnette, was granted bail in Cran-brook on Feb. 17 with a $10,000 recognizance. His next appearance is also on March 17.

A tax by any other name is still a tax
NORM MACDONALDMLA Columbia River -
Revelstoke
Whether it is a fee, a rate or a service charge, if you are paying it to fund a government program, you might as well call it what it is: a tax. Premier Clark might claim that her budget didn’t raise taxes, but we all know that costs to tax-payers for government ser-vices are still rising.
For instance, BC Hydro rates are going up by 28% over the next 5 years. While the Minister of Energy will tell you that the reason for the rate in-crease is to repair aging infra-structure, the truth is that much of that increase is going directly to provincial revenue.
Here’s how it works. In order to ‘balance’ the budget, the BC Liberals simply require crown corporations such as BC Hydro to pay a specific ‘dividend’ to the province as the corporation’s only share-holder. It does not matter whether or not the corpora-tion actually has enough profit to pay the dividend; the divi-dend must simply be paid.
The only way for BC Hydro to make this payment to gov-ernment’s coffers is to raise your hydro rates. That’s a tax.
We all know that we have to contribute in order to fund government programs; we don’t like paying taxes, but we know we have to work togeth-er to make society function.
And we agree that those who are most able to pay should pay more than those who are struggling.
But the BC Hydro rate ‘tax’ hits hardest those who can least afford to pay. Every per-son, regardless of income, will pay the same rate increase, and for many in our commu-nities this is just too much to bear.
So when you hear Premier Clark and her Minister of Fi-nance claim that there are no new taxes and we have a bal-anced budget, keep in mind the path we are taking to get there.
In the case of BC Hydro, we are heavily taxing individuals who have no other option to heat and light their homes. And we are throwing away our established principles of tax fairness just to serve the Pre-mier’s political agenda.

Mural approved for Platzl parking lotC AROLYN GR ANT
Council has approved the installation of a mural on the rear facade of the Mark Creek Mall building.
Local artist Simon Hadi-
uk is applying to the Co-lumbia Kootenay Cultural Alliance for funding to pro-ceed with the mural and spoke to Kimberley City Council last week.
Instead of painting di-rectly onto the building, the
mural will be painted on banners, which can be re-moved for building mainte-nance. The weather proof banner’s lifespan is approx-imately ten years.
The banner has the added advantage of being
less expensive than paint-ing directly onto the build-ing.
The mural will be a mountain scene, with the view of Fisher’s Peak in-cluded.

Whoa, Nelly, that was a tough one. Cranbrook’s MasterChef Canada con-testant, Danielle Cardozo, was forced to cook with beef tongue in Monday’s seventh episode – and she came away smiling.
As this episode of the CTV reality cook-off series began, the home cook contestants were shown a picture of their childhood selves and instructed by the judges to prepare a dish inspired by their memories of that age.
In Danielle’s photo, she was sitting on a dock holding a fish.
“That photo was taken at Loon Lake in Grasmere,” Danielle told the Towns-man. “It was my family’s favourite camp spot that we went to each year.”
Although her dish wasn’t show in the episode, Danielle cooked a lentil and pancetta salad with spiced prawn.
“I loved the dish,” she said. “Unfor-tunately, it wasn’t enough to impress the judges. But I am still proud of it.”
The best dish was prepared by On-tario’s Eric Chong, who prepared Chi-nese barbecue pork with noodles. For winning the challenge, Eric was safe from the next elimination challenge,
and he was given a pre-view of the food his fel-low contestants would be tasked with prepar-ing: a top to tail Alberta cow. What’s more, Eric was allowed to choose which of his competi-tors cooked with which part of the animal.
Straightaway, he sin-gle out Danielle and Kelowna’s Kaila Klassen for the two most vom-in-ducing cuts: the tongue and the brains.
“I thought for sure Eric would have my back,” Danielle said. “We were pretty tight throughout the compe-tition, and still are. I talk to him every day. When I saw that he chose tongue for me, I knew he had a target on me. I had no clue why my close friend would do that, except that he ob-viously saw me as com-petition.

Meet Sibel Thrasher Thursday after-noon in Kimberley.
From Page 1The four people face
numerous charges in-cluding break and enter, disguising the face with the intent to commit an offence, uttering threats, and use of a firearm in committing an offence.
According to RCMP, a home on 1st Avenue
South in Cranbrook was the location of a home invasion on Dec. 18. There was a break and enter at the same home on Dec. 24.
On Boxing Day, there was a second home in-vasion at a property on 6th Street North in Cranbrook.
RCMP said four peo-ple allegedly entered the residence carrying a long gun, a shot gun, an Uzi-style firearm, brass knuckles and a baton. In both cases, electronic devices were allegedly stolen.
Two accused plead guilty, will go to trial
From Page 3“During the compe-
tition, he told me he wasn’t gunning for me and he gave me what was remaining from his choices. I laughed to-night, as he texted me and apologized. He knew the truth would come out that he was gunning for me. I have serious respect for Eric; he played the game well in both a culinary sense and a social sense. How can you get mad at good game play?”
Meanwhile, faced with a cut of beef she’d never cooked with be-fore, Danielle was freaking out.
“I was scared. Straight up scared. Beef tongue? Really, Eric? I had no clue. Never seen it or touched it before in my life. I tried to take that awful layer of skin on it and it wouldn’t budge. I could barely cut through it.
“The only thing I knew was that tough meat can be cooked in a pressure cooker in a significantly reduced amount of time. The problem? I have never used a pressure cooker before. I have to laugh because I think I had the judges a little ner-vous. I had no clue what I was doing with that piece of equipment, and used improperly it can be extremely dan-gerous.”
But thankfully, she managed to pull it off, serving slices of beef tongue beside a beet salad. While it wasn’t an inspiring dish, judge Claudio Aprile said the tongue was cooked
well. Danielle was safe.Things didn’t look so
rosy for three of the other home cooks who had arguably three of the easiest cuts. Dale Kuda’s tomahawk steak was blue raw when he served it; Mike Green’s liver had oxidised and turned green, so the judges wouldn’t try it; and Dora Cote had made a stew from the beef cheeks that Aprile told her looked like barf. In the end, it was Dora – who has been somewhat of a nemesis to Danielle in the com-petition – who was cut from the program.
“I, like everyone else, was surprised to see Dora go on the beef challenge,” said Dan-ielle. “An Alberta plumber goes home on Alberta beef – there’s something a little ironic about that!
“For anyone who knows me, it’s no sur-prise that Dora and I weren’t exactly best friends. So was I sad to see her go? No, not at all. At the same time, I didn’t see her as com-petition, and you’re al-ways hoping someone strong will go home.”
Meanwhile, Danielle continues to prepare her dishes at the Heid Out in Cranbrook each Monday night for a popular viewing party.
“I served both my prawn, lentil, and pan-cetta salad; as well as my roasted beet and beef tongue salad. They were a hit. I can’t wait to serve next week’s dish to the community again,” she said.

Alright. Woo-hoo. We’re partying now. With the kind of enthusiasm normal-ly reserved for sorting Phillips head
screws from flat head screws, Arizona Gov-ernor Jan Brewer last week publicly vetoed SB 1062, legislation that would provide legal cover to businesses denying services based on the operator’s reli-gious beliefs. The return of Jim Crow with a cactus beat.
Yes, the finger-jabbing governess banged down the brakes of the bigot bill. And the disappointment rumbling through the evangelical community caused snakes to be mishandled all the way to Eastern Ten-nessee.
Give the lady credit. She hemmed. She hawed. She deliberated. Took her time like a molasses coated snail slogging up Ever-est against the wind in the dead of winter. The right thing was done; for the wrong reasons. The same way deciding not to drink that eighth beer was a smart move, whether the cause was self-restraint or misplacing the bottle opener under the front seat.
Mostly it was the threat of another state-wide economic boycott including the pos-sibility of losing a second Super Bowl that did the trick. Once again, the NFL trumps
religion. Of course, if those darn liberals hadn’t put up such a stink, she would have signed it so fast it would make a roadrun-ner’s head spin, mid beep-beep.
Ironically, Brewer’s painstakingly lack-adaisical response was re-sponsible for ratcheting up the backlash that in-flamed the country. She inadvertently gave the press time to trumpet the story. And the resulting uproar bodes as well for the umpteen other states
considering similar legislation as a dead gila monster head in your Frosted Flakes.
This is what happens when the tourist industry, the business community, the state’s two GOP U.S. Senators and even some of the bill’s co-sponsors turn against it. With friends like these, who needs ene-mas?
You’d think that vetoing a bill that sanc-tioned discrimination would be a no-brainer, but no-brainers aren’t quite the sure thing in Arizona. This is the state famous for voting against recognizing Martin Luther King, Jr.’s birthday as a holi-day and encouraging local police to stop anybody with a tan on both their arms.
Perhaps Arizona legislators are un-aware that religions other than Christianity
exist, because depending on the faith of the business owner, this bill would have allowed folks to refuse service not just for sexual orientation but for sporting nail polish, fastening pants with zippers or eat-ing shellfish. The burning hunger for des-ert shellfish having been dealt with many millennia ago.
Not wearing a hat offends some gods, while the wearing of hats offends others. The gods, they are sartorially conflicted. Suspected of engaging in premarital sex? No ice cream for you! Divorced patrons can purchase their organic rutabagas somewhere else, thank you very much. Wear a turban? Don’t need a couch. Cus-tomers would need to take a urine test every time they dropped something off at the dry cleaners.
With every piece of ludicrous legisla-tion, it becomes increasingly apparent that AZ — the postal abbreviation for the Grand Canyon State — stands for “Angry Zeno-phobes.” And yes, xenophobe is actually spelled with an X, but the insensible and intolerant denizens of Arizona are proba-bly unaware of that. Arizona: the American Uganda. It’s not the hate, it’s the stupidity.

TRE VOR CR AWLEYSports Editor
The Kootenay Ice were shut out for the sixth time this season in a 4-0 loss to the Red Deer Rebels on Tuesday night at Western Financial Place.
It’s the second straight loss for the Ice, which re-turned from a three-game road trip into Sas-katchewan over the weekend, falling 4-2 in Prince Albert on Satur-day after collecting a pair of wins.
Kootenay was two players short of a com-plete lineup, missing five players to injury. The club also refused to com-ment or update the situa-tion with sniper Tim Bozon, who, according to social media chatter, was hospitalized in Saska-toon during the road trip.
The Rebels came into Cranbrook with three wins in their last 10 games, and were scrappy right from the start as they fought for one of the last remaining playoff spots in the Eastern Con-
ference. Red Deer scored a trio
of goals in the first peri-od, and rode the lead till the end of the game, seal-ing it off with an empty netter.
Brooks Maxwell opened the scoring less than five minutes in the first frame, while Wyatt Johnson went bar down in the slot 10 minutes later.
Aspen Sterzer made it a three-goal deficit for Kootenay, sniping the short side top corner on a backdoor pass during a Red Deer powerplay.
Ice assistant coach Jay Henderson was not happy with the effort in the first 20 minutes.
“Lots of silly mistakes, to put it bluntly,” Hen-derson said. “I don’t think we were very good, we were flat footed, and they’re a desperate hock-ey club. They were play-ing desperate and they out-competed us and outworked us in every aspect of the game.”
On the flip side, it was a great start Red Deer,
which are tied with the Prince Albert Raiders for eighth place in the con-ference.
Sterzer, a Rebels for-ward who hails from Canal Flats, said the win was a team effort.
“They’re a little short staffed, which is obvious-ly tough, but we just came into this game and it’s desperation time for us right now,” Sterzer said. “We’re trying to make the playoffs—most lines on the team were going tonight.”
Rebels goaltender Patrik Bartosak was bril-liant in keeping the Koo-tenay Ice off the score-board. Sam Reinhart, Zach Franko and Jaedon Descheneau all had quality chances to score, but the Red Deer net-minder shut the door every time.
Henderson also said the Ice didn’t elevate their game after digging themselves into a three-goal hole.
“Obviously, we came out pretty flat. I didn’t like our compete in the
first period, and it did im-prove slightly, but not to where it has to be,” Hen-derson said.
“…I didn’t like the ef-fort and again, we can use the excuse that we’re short on bodies, but that doesn’t work for me.”
The two teams held each other scoreless through the second peri-od and most of the third. Ice goaltender Macken-zie Skapski, who made 29 saves, vacated his net with three minutes re-maining in the game for an extra attacker, but Rhyse Dieno scored the token empty net goal for a 4-0 final.
NOTES: Ice captain Sam Reinhart was named the WHL Player of the Month on Tues-day. Reinhart tallied 10 goals, 22 assists in 13 games in February

NUMBER ONE: The EKVC 15U girls played very well this past weekend, placing 1st in Division 2 at the Premier 1 South tour-nament in Calgary. The weekend started with some tough competition in the their pool. Strong defense and killer serves shocked the Jr Dinos as they won by only four points and three points. The Jr. Dinos went on to place 2nd in division 1. Can West took the win after winning the second and third set. (25-22, 19-25, 8-15) Can West went on to place 4th in Division 1. EKVC’s third place took us into Division 2 playoffs where they cruised through Game One against the Jaguars. They comfortably won the first set against the ACVC Reign (25-17). The second set was a bit of a struggle but they pulled through with a 25-20 victory. In the finals EKVC met TSA Gray. First set began with five unreturnable serves and that set the tempo for the rest of the match, 25-12 and 25-13 were the final scores, with both lines playing extremely well.
Canucks trade Luongo to Florida Panthers
The Vancouver Canucks have traded goaltender Roberto Luongo to the Florida Panthers.
Luongo’s unhappiness in Vancouver since the 2011 Stanley Cup final included being usurped as the starter by Cory Schneider, demanding to be traded, complaining that his US$64-million, 12-year contract “sucks” seeing Schneider being dealt away.
Coach John Tortorella added another chapter by choosing not to start the 34-year-old in last week-end’s Heritage Classic, opting instead to go with backup Eddie Lack.
Now Lack could split duties with Jacob Mark-strom, acquired from the Panthers as part of the Luongo deal along with forward Shawn Matthias.
ECHL-based Forward Steve Anthony also heads to Florida.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) A friend whom you might not have heard from in a while could help perk up your day in the af-ternoon. Use your intuition when making a decision involving your funds. Be as clear as possi-ble when dealing with others. Confirm what you are hearing. Tonight: Your treat. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You tend to blossom in situa-tions where others might get frustrated. You might be used to someone being rather cold and difficult. Do not internalize this person’s behavior or words. A boss might not openly compli-ment you, but he or she thinks highly of you. Tonight: All smiles. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Know that you might need to get a little perspective on a situation. Your best bet would be not to say too much and just observe more. Imagine what it must be like to be in the other person’s shoes. Detach as much as you can. To-night: Let it all hang out.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Zero in on priorities. A meeting could be more important than you realize. Once you see the dis-cussion evolve and witness the immediate results, you will gain a sense of appreciation. A close friend might want to talk. Make time for this person. Tonight: Opt for togetherness. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Follow your instincts. You might want to head in a different di-rection and follow a new path. Others could openly disagree with you. Once you feel that you have answered their questions, you’ll be able to relax. Let go of the issue for now. Tonight: Take a break. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You’ll have the opportunity to accomplish a lot. Detach and get opinions from people who do not think like you do. Once you recognize the myriad of possibil-ities, you will need to revisit the matter at hand. Tonight: Put on some great music, or drop in on a jam session. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Listen to what is being shared by
a trusted pal -- there are nuggets of important information there. Build on an existing premise, rather than begin a new one. Remember that everyone is entitled to his or her opinion. To-night: Visit and chat with a loved one. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You could decide that enough has come down your path. Un-derstand that it is up to you to state your boundaries; other-wise, how would others know? Share what is happening on a more open level with a close friend. This person’s feedback will be helpful. Tonight: Happy at home. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Be aware of what is happening in your immediate circle. Not everyone will agree with you, so keep an eye on someone who is prone to backstabbing. You can talk until you are blue in the face, but reconciliation is unlikely until later. Tonight: Make exercising a must. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Honor your feelings by coming up with a creative solution for
a child or loved one. You will see how grateful this person is. What he or she might not real-ize is how relieved you will be to get past this problem. Do not rehash a routine matter. Tonight: Around good music. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Someone might become stub-born in a conversation. Know when to pull back and say less; otherwise, it could be much harder to rectify the situation. If a situation is as you see it, time will be your ally. Tonight: Sink into the sofa, watch a favorite show or indulge in a relaxing pastime. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Examine alternatives with more care. Your innate ability to see the other side of an issue and find a way to make everyone happy will emerge. A partner could be exhibiting crankiness rather than disagreement; he or she needs an outlet. Tonight: Hang out with friends. BORN TODAY Actor Rex Harrison (1908), philosopher Rosa Luxemburg (1871), actress Eva Mendes (1974)
Dear Annie: You printed a letter from “Concerned in Galesburg, Ill.,” about pho-tographing naked babies. I have a slightly different problem, but it’s in a similar vein. I have a toddler grandson. Maybe I’m just old-fashioned, but our daughter-in-law has close to 500 pictures of the boy naked, from birth to his second birthday. She also has videos of him naked in the bathroom, re-cording him for several minutes while he’s getting ready to take his bath. My son and I have talked about this, and he, too, finds this to be odd behavior. A few pictures would be normal, but 500 seems ex-cessive for anyone. Neither of us has talked to her about this. She has since taken the boy and moved out. We do not consider this por-nography, but we cannot understand why there are so many photos. Can you help? -- Concerned Grandmother Dear Grandmother: We would be con-cerned, too. New parents often take hun-dreds of pictures of their children, but 500 naked photos and videos is excessive by any standard. Add to that your daughter-in-law’s taking the boy and leaving the home, and we worry that she is using these photos for purposes other than a personal record. There may be nothing going on, but your son needs to be vigilant. He should visit with the boy often and not be afraid to ask his wife about the photos and videos. He also should seek legal counsel if they do not reconcile soon. Dear Annie: I am a highly educated indi-vidual who speaks English as a second lan-guage. Sometimes I have to deal with cus-tomers over the telephone. There have been instances in which I have been told, “Your English is terrible” or “Call me back when you learn the language.” It’s not as if these individuals have a Ph.D. in English. Their grammatical mistakes are horrible. Just because English is their first language does not mean they have finished elementary school. Who are they to pass judgment over foreigners speaking English? Annie, what should people in my situation tell these very rude people? I doubt they understand the meaning of the word “xe-nophobia.” There are many hardworking, productive people in this country with an accent. Please tell your readers to try to un-derstand how difficult it is to learn another language and to stop being so disrespectful to us. -- Sick of Xenophobes in Jeffersonville, Ind. Dear Indiana: Agreed, and we hope our readers are paying attention. These rude people are not commenting on your lan-guage skills or your intelligence. They are telling you that your accent is too thick for them to understand what you are saying. Of course, this doesn’t excuse them. The polite response when you don’t un-derstand someone is, “Excuse me. I didn’t catch that. Could you please repeat it more slowly?” There is absolutely no reason to be insulting. When faced with such disrespect, your best response is to be polite and pa-tient. Dear Annie: I was very touched by the letter from “Miserable Forever,” whose hus-band is emotionally and financially abusive. You advised her to get out of the marriage and contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline. I would like to add that she may want to contact her local legal aid office. Also, most states have an attorney referral service, and in some states, attorneys are required to take cases pro bono (free of charge). She may want to look at these resources and see whether she can find an attorney who will take her case for free or at low cost. -- Martha Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.
