It is a signifi cant segment of Canadian history, albeit not one to be proud of. Last Saturday Okanagan media and special guests were in-vited to the debut screening of the fi lm of TORA, star-ring David Suzuki in his fi rst ever acting role. TORA addresses the issue of Japa-nese Canadian internment during WWII.

Th e 30-minute fi lm is

set in the stunning scenery of B.C.s Interior, shot on a lakefront property in Lake Country, and swings be-tween present day and the cold winters of the 1940s. Th e poignant story follows a jaded city woman Jenna, played by Vancouver ac-tress Kate Bateman, who in-herits a lakefront property, which she soon learns was once a Japanese internment camp. Unsettling visions of a ghostly eight year-old

Japanese girl, Kimilo, hint that theres more to her new property than shes been told.

Suzuki plays a motorcy-cle-riding lawyer who con-tacts Batemans character about her inheritance, and greets her at the property.

History fades as easy as its lessons, is a poignant line used by Suzuki, as he and Jenna discuss the his-tory of the acreage and its dilapidated buildings.

Over 50 Japanese Cana-dians took part in the fi lm, including Kelowna resident Roy Kawamoto who was an extra in the movie.

While he may have had a bit part in the produc-tion, Kawamoto, 80, and his family had a real life role in a Greenwood, B.C., Japanese internment camp in the 1940s.

All the people of Japa-nese origin were ordered to be moved 100 miles from

the coastline to various centres, already selected by the government, recalls Kawamoto.

Only 11 years-old at the time, he, his mother and six siblings were up-rooted from their Vancou-ver home and ordered to a Greenwood camp in the Kootenay Boundary region of southern British Colum-bia. Canada interned more than 22,000 people of Japa-nese descent during WWII,

three-quarters of who were Canadian citizens. All of their belongings were sold and the profi ts used to the support the camps.

Kawamotos father had a non-confrontational outlook on the situation. Kawamoto recalls his fa-thers words: Th is is how it is, and theres no point in worrying about things. You

At the top of the agenda at Tuesdays Committee of the Whole meeting of Peachland council was the districts re-quest to the Ministry of Trans-portation and Infrastructure (MOTI) for better illumination of Drought Hill and the instal-lation of a traffi c signal at Cle-ments Crescent and Hwy 97.

District staff met with the MOTI early in the new year and were advised, with respect to Drought Hill: Full cost re-sponsibility lies with the mu-nicipality for both installation and ongoing maintenance and power costs, for illumination between the intersections. For illumination at intersections, installation costs are shared equally with the province.

MOTI has not studied the Drought Hill stretch of High-way 97 to determine the cause of accidents, but are prepared to review the accident statistics and make recommendations on how the highway condi-tions might be improved.

A rough cost estimate by Urban Systems for installing illumination on both sides of Highway 97 along Drought Hill is $919,500, excluding any

unknowns, which could push the cost close to $1 million

Less costly options than light standards are temporary speed reader boards, more road markings and rumble strips.

A traffi c signal at the inter-section of Clements Crescent and Highway 97 was also dis-cussed. MOTIs initial rough cost estimate is $300,000. Two-third of that is payable by MOTI, and one-third by the district.

However, according to El-sie Lemke, Peachland District Chief Administration Offi cer, MOTIs 2011/2012 electrical budget is already fully allo-cated. Th ey did off er another option.

Th e MOTI has stated that the district can choose to up-front the full costs for the sig-nalization, and enter into an agreement with MOTI to pay back its share over the next few year, when budgets permit, said Lemke.

Council has taken this un-der consideration, as well as passed a resolution request-ing the MOTI review acci-dent statistics and recom-mend improvements to the Drought Hill stretch of Hwy 97.

Th e Peachland Chamber of Commerce held its quar-terly membership meet-ing at Rocky Js Beach Hut on Monday, Jan 17. It was a packed house at the dinner gathering of local business owners.

In addition to regular business, Peter Rotheisler, manager of the Central Okanagan Regional Waste Reduction offi ce, was on hand to give a presentation on a new 2011 Commercial Waste Diversion program, which includes new trash and recycling regulations and penalties.

Th e prime objective of the program, said Rotheisler, is to reduce landfi ll from multi-family dwellings, in-stitutional, and local busi-ness. It is estimated that an additional 35,000 tons of waste could be diverted from the local landfi lls each year with proper commer-cial sorting.

Loretta Robinson of the Peachland Visitor Centre

discussed the new 2011 Of-fi cial Visitors Guide, which is published annually as part of Destination Peach-land.

Th e Destination Peach-land Guide is an exciting, informative guide that will provide readers with an in-viting overview of all that Peachland has to off er, said Robinson.

Th e guide will be out in mid-March and is expected to be 40 pages in length, up from 16 pages last year. Th ere will be 20,000 copies printed, which are available throughout the year at the Peachland Visitor Centre, as well as widely distributed to over 100 visitor centres throughout B.C.

Also at the meeting, Wal-ter Huber of Deep Creek Estate Winery and Hainle Vineyards was presented with a special Award of Distinction by chamber president Rob Campbell, in recognition of being the fi rst organic winery in Can-ada. A Huber wine was also served at last years 82nd

annual Academy Awards night dinner.

During his presidential report, Campbell thanked the crowd for their ongo-ing support. Our member-ship is increasing, which is encouraging and we will continue to work with you in whatever way we can to increase your exposure and keep business moving for-ward.

Aft erwards, Campbell said he was happy with the high turnout at the quar-terly meeting.

I thought it well attend-ed. Typically in the past only the regulars would at-tend, so it was nice to see some new members.

Th e Chamber has several upcoming events sched-uled, including their Break-fast Speaker Series, Food Safe Course, Business Aft er Hours, and Business 2 Con-sumer Trade Expo.

For more information on these and other events, you can visit the Chamber website at www.peachland-chamber.bc.ca.

I sure am reading and hearing a whole lot about a federal election coming at us. You too?

In case you're wondering, we're not the ones pounding the drum. Our feeling is that we should be continuing to focus on growing the economy and maintaining a climate that will see ongoing oppor-tunities for jobs and financial security for Canadians. That approach seems to be working fairly well for us. Canada continues to be seen as something of a model for how to steer an economy through chal-lenging financial times globally.

As I've said before, the things and the ideas that matter most to you as my constituents are the items we try to forge into productive policy instru-ments.

Naturally I can't guar-antee that the wish or suggestion of every citi-zen in the Okanagan, Nicola and Highland Valleys will be-come a matter of law or statute. How-ever, I do try to distil into workable in-gredients the main streams of insights, which I get from you as we meet and stay in touch around the riding.

On that note, I am not hearing a surge of chorus calls for a general election. What I hear is a sort of: "Well, an elec-tion, if necessary, but not necessarily an election.

This sentiment seems to cross party lines here at home. There is some needed legislation to work on right now in par-liament and more initiatives to explore that are at the discussion and committee stage.

There are items being brought for-ward by members of all parties that have the potential for improving the lives of Canadians. Among ourselves as MPs

we certainly do not agree on all of the policy positions of all parties. But we are able to find common ground on a num-ber of items that are worth pursuing.

As I've shared with you, we are right in the midst of putting together a budget that must be able to steer us through the ongoing challenges of a still fragile glob-al recovery. I am not divulging any cabi-net confidences by telling you that Min-

ister Flaherty will want to table that budget not too late in this spring session on Parliament Hill.

Whether or not the op-position parties will use that as an opportunity to force a vote of non-con-fidence and trigger a fed-eral election will remain to be seen. It is somewhat disconcerting to hear po-litical leaders say they are going to vote against the budget before they even see it.

However, if they firmly believe that is what the

voters want them to do then its clearly their democratic right to take that ap-proach. You may be interested to know I don't hear an endorsement for that tactic locally from any of my friends or acquaintances who are Liberal, NDP or Green Party supporters.

Most people are of the view that some-thing as important as a federal budget should at least be looked at before it is condemned. Anyway, democracy is all about choices so we'll have to see which way this one will go.

I'll be in Ottawa early in the week for cabinet meetings. I will have meetings on Friday and Saturday in Vancouver and Victoria and will be available here in the riding for meetings on Wednesday or Thursday. As usual, just contact the office locally or email if there are items of concern where we can work with you.

Extreme avalanche con-ditions, blowing snow and freezing rain are ham-pering highway travel in many parts of British Co-lumbia. Anyone planning a highway trip is advised to "know before you go" by checking the DriveBC web-site at drivebc.ca for the lat-est road reports.

In the Kootenay region, the Kicking Horse Canyon is experiencing a once-in-30-years avalanche cycle, with over a metre of heavy snow falling on top of a weaker layer of snow. Th is, combined with unseason-ably warm temperatures and strong alpine winds, is making the snow pack throughout the Kootenays extremely unstable. As a result, more than 30 large avalanches have occurred along Highway 1 in the Kicking Horse Canyon, east of Golden.

Th e Ministry has 10 ava-lanche experts working around the clock along with technicians from Parks Canada. Th ese technicians are highly specialized and skilled in avalanche con-trol activities with over 150 years of combined fi eld experience, and are all reg-istered with the Canadian

Avalanche Association.Once senior avalanche

technicians determine that avalanche paths are safe, highway mainte-nance crews immediately begin the process of clear-ing the roadway, and crews and equipment are always standing by.

In addition to the ava-lanche activity, some areas of the province are experi-encing prolonged snowfall, freezing rain and blowing snow to the extent that a number of travel adviso-ries have been established. Travel advisories are used to warn motorists of road or weather conditions that will present a signifi cant travel challenge. It is im-portant that motorists pay heed to travel advisories and check webcams and information on DriveBC before they decide to travel, and ensure their vehicles are properly equipped for severe winter weather.

Travel during advisories is not recommended unless absolutely necessary.

Maintenance crews are patrolling the highways 24 hours, seven days a week, plowing and sanding. DriveBC provides current highway conditions, travel advisories and closures. You can also see current conditions, with 175 high-way webcams strategically placed around the prov-ince.

The remnants of a landed Japanese incendiary balloon bomb are seen in this 1940s photo.

During World War II one of the great secrets was the indiscriminate bombing of B.C. and the west coast of North America by the Japanese with fi re bombs. The hydrogen fi lled balloons were launched from Japan and

carried at high altitudes by the jet stream to North America with the intent of causing destructive forest fi res.

During this time, a Peachland offi cer was sent to investigate an incendiary bomb, such as shown in the photo, that landed between Peachland and Merritt. He brought the remnants back to Peachland for investigation.

Although we have some great Canadian companies, many have become American owned; the Bay and Future Shop are examples. But what about Tim Hortons? It was Canadian, then American (purchased in 1995 by Wendys), and then in 2006, Tim Hortons became a stand-alone public company. So ownership depends on who buys the shares.

As a tour guide, I have oft en taken groups to Tim Hortons for a tea/coff ee stop. On one of the Canadian tours, we stop at three diff erent Tim Hortons for our fi rst three morning coff ee stops. Th en comes the inevitable question, Do you have shares in this company, Eric? But British people are impressed with the great value.

Travelling in Quebec, we sometimes need to try our knowledge of the French lan-guage. So, at the Tim Hortons in Drummondville we always ask for une vraie tasse, pas paper, to get a proper cup. It is probably our most French experience of the whole tour; theres not much English spoken there.

In Calgary recently, a young couple got married in their lo-cal Tim Hortons. Th e bride said, Th is is just a place that weve become so familiar with, its a place where weve spent so much time with each other, with our friends, just hanging out. Th ey had 45 guests. Th e justice of the peace said, Why shouldnt they do this in a place theyve already shared so much joy and love? Th ey do say that the less money couples spend on their wedding, the more the chance of the mar-riage succeeding. On that basis, it should be a long-term relation-ship.

Tim Hortons has a reputation for great value and good service and they are famous for helping young people through their Chil-

drens Foundation. Th e foun-dation sends underprivileged kids each year to camps across the country. But today, there are some disgruntled franchise owners. If you read Macleans magazine you probably know that theres a legal battle brew-ing (excuse the pun) within the Tim Hortons coff ee empire. Th e root of the prob-lem seems to be about the fact that all of Tims donuts are now made by Maidstone Baker-ies in Brantford, Ontario.

As many people know, Tim Horton was a hockey player and his business partner was Ron Joyce. But what happened to these two guys and what is happening at Tim Hortons to-day?

Tim Horton was born in 1930 in Cochrane, Ontario, and used his hockey skills to escape from childhood poverty. In 1948, the Toronto Maple Leafs signed him and he moved to Toronto to play junior hockey. By 1952, he was married and playing regularly for the Leafs in the NHL. Hor-ton played for the Toronto Maple Leafs for 20 years winning four Stanley cups with Punch Im-lach as manager. Horton was an outstanding and hard-working defenceman. He was known and feared for his strength and deter-mination and was recognized as a good team player.

Horton opened his fi rst cof-fee and doughnut shop in 1964 in Hamilton, Ontario. Ron Joyce (also born in 1930) was a Ham-ilton police offi cer who got to know Tim Horton by visiting his restaurant whilst on foot patrol. Joyce became Hortons business

partner and handled the fran-chise system.

Horton later joined the New York Rangers (1969-1971), the Pittsburgh Penguins (1971-1972) and fi nally the Buff alo Sabres (1972-1974). Horton joined his old manager Imlach in Buff alo. At 44, and with a successful restaurant business developing,

Horton didnt need to play any-more. But Imlach convinced him to play one more season with a rich contract and a bonus $125,000 sports car, a Ford Pantera. Early on the morning of February 21, 1974, Horton was driv-ing on the QEW (Queen Elizabeth Way freeway) from

Toronto on his way home to Buf-falo. He lost control of his sports car in St. Catharines, whilst trav-elling at over 100 mph and hit a concrete culvert. He was dead on arrival at the local hospital.

When Horton died there were 40 restaurants. In 1975, Hortons widow, Lori, signed over control of the company to Ron Joyce for one million dollars. Joyce went on to become a business legend in Canada. As Tim Hortons ex-panded, Lori Horton decided that the deal had not been fair and started a court action. She lost the case in 1993 and passed away in 2000. Th ere was a happy aspect to the story. Tim and Lori had four daughters. Hortons eldest daughter, Jeri, married Ron Joyce junior and they have started a family. Th ey run a Tim Hortons restaurant in Cobourg, Ontario. When Ron Joyce sold the company in 1995 for shares in Wendys, he then owned more shares in Wendys than its found-

er, Dave Th omas. Joyce is now re-tired but continues with charity work and lives in Calgary.

Today, there are over 2,000 Tim Hortons franchises in Can-ada and over 3,000 locations in total. And there are locations in some American states as well. Most of the American Tim Hor-tons are in Michigan, Ohio and New York. Outside of North America there are operations in Ireland and the UK. Th ere is also a Tim Hortons in Kandahar, Af-ghanistan, for the benefi t of our Canadian soldiers there. Total revenues in 2009 were $2.24 bil-lion with an operating income of $495 million.

Tim Hortons is doing well, so what is the lawsuit about? In 2003, Tim Hortons replaced their in-store deep fryers and started to truck in donuts and muffi ns from Brantford, On-tario. Th ey are made by Maid-stone Bakeries, which is now owned by a Swiss company. Th ey are partially baked and delivered frozen. Many franchise owners supported the change, as it was easier to manage the supply and reduce wastage. It also avoided the need to employ an experi-enced baker on the night shift .

So, from a business point of view, it seems to make sense. But is the product as good? Well, I suppose that depends on indi-vidual taste. One of the major issues with the new system is the fact that it gives head offi ce control over the profi ts made by the franchise owners. One of the strengths of the company has been the support and know-ledge coming from the franchise owners. So it is very unfortunate that it has come to court. As law-yers study the thousands of pages of affi davits, regular customers can only hope that the cost of their double double wont be going up because of court costs.

Dear Editor, Community spirit is indeed alive and well in Peachland. We see many displays of it on Canada Day, at the World of Wheels, and it was demonstrated once again at the Community Consultation hosted by the Peachland Wellness Centre on January 12. Even the tons of snow couldnt contain the enthusiasm our residents have for our little town. Th e organizers were delighted to see so many people come out and share their thoughts on how the Peachland Wellness Centre, along with other com-munity groups, could ensure we are reaching all the right people with our programs and services. Many good ideas were discussed and we all left knowing our heart is in the right place, we just need to communicate better. We plan to do this is by having a semi-annual networking meeting where interested groups can get together and inform everyone about the activities and plans of each group. Th ank you to everyone who took the time to care about the community we all share, and for making the eff ort to make it just a little better.

Prison vs. mental health facility

Community shares thoughts with Wellness Centre

Dear Editor,

Th ere is much talk of building a new prison in the Okanagan. How about using the money to build a mental health facility, or a drug treatment centre? We would have good care for those unfortunate people with mental problems; the prison system is not the place for these people.We wouldhelp drug addicts kick their habit, with the likely result of reducing crime (even unreported crime!) It would also provide good paying quality jobs for trained professionals.It would be a win-win-win situation.

Angela Harrop,

Agent of Change working for YOU

Writer calls for Tussock moth spray

TORA

Open letter to Peachland residents,If you were a prisoner in your own home last summer due to the Tussock moth and tus-

sockosis, you need to take action now and contact the two Ministry of Forests and Range specialists listed below. If you want to be able to mow your lawn, harvest your garden, hang your laundry, save your shady Douglas Fir trees, walk your pet and allow your chil-dren to play and eat in the backyard again, then contact these persons and inquire into the possibility of another aerial spray application over upper Peachland.

Last spring the Trepanier Bench area andother Kelowna locations were sprayed suc-cessfully with Bt-k. Unfortunately, the Tussock moth had already spread voraciously through the McColl Lake area and has infested the forest interface and residential areas above Princeton Avenue,Law Street, Pineridge Road, Forest Hill,upper Turner Avenue andalong Victoria Drive.

We are only inthe third or fourth year of the seven year cycle of these pests and onlyaer-ial sprayingorman-lift truckswith a 60' or 80'boomcan reach the moths as they appear in spring and before they cocoon.Topical spraying the pests in your trees and on your buildings from the ground up will only remove the cocoons 20' uptrees and structures, not nearly eff ective enough.

I trust you will agree the situation last year in these areas was quite unbearable, please contact your Ministry before these moths return.

leave when you leave, and that is it.

His father also ex-plained, Th is is the gov-ernment, and by virtue of being at war with Japan, they had to do something to make sure we wouldnt be a nuisance. You cant fi ght, you just have to go.

Kawamotos mother was left in charge of her large family, as their father was taken away to a prisoner of

war camp in Ontario. Four years would pass before they would be reunited.

David Suzuki was not present at the premiere of TORA, but more than 500 people, consisting of cast, crew, media, and Japanese elders, fi lled the Okana-gan College theatre for two back-to-back screen-ings. Due to high demand, Mountain Lake Films, who produced the fi lm, are considering two more

screenings, possibly one in Vernon and another in Penticton.

Th ere are no confi rmed television broadcast slots scheduled, as of yet, al-though the company is talking with a few broad-casters.

For more information on TORA, you can visit the site at www.torath-emovie.com, where you can also purchase a DVD of the fi lm.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

If you ever decide to run for public office and succeed in winning an election, one of the first things you will soon discover is that the job is a fair bit different then you may have previously thought. It is often said that there are two sides to a story and many of us un-derstand the importance of hearing from both sides in any discus-sion or debate. In govern-ment I often like to think there are three sides, because as elected offi-cials we must first hear from both sides and ultimately it is our responsi-bility to come up with the third side, which is, hope-fully, the happy medium, balance or compromise that is in the publics best inter-est. As I am certain many of you will not be surprised to hear, this process is not one without controversy.

The intent of my report this week is not to dwell on the challenges elected of-ficials face in making deci-

sions, but rather, to focus on the process. More often than not we hear from citi-zens and various interest groups who would like to see changes made to exist-ing legislation, spending and policy. Often problems with existing rules, regula-tions or spending are iden-

tified and s o m e t i m e s proposed so-lutions are also tabled, other times not. The big-ger challenge in govern-ment is always to investigate why existing practices exist as opposed to the suggested alternative.

One thing you will f ind in govern-

ment is that you have access to a considerable amount of information and recom-mendations through staff and archives. In many cases what may seem like a simple solution or a f lawed process may well have been created in a certain way by design. For example, most anyone who has resided in an area where electrical infrastruc-

ture has been expanded or upgraded generally may not be supportive of the British Columbia Utilities Com-mission. That said, we must also recognize that if every power line was buried un-derground and substations were always in geographi-cally remote areas, our monthly power bills could be into the thousands and affordability would be a paramount concern.

Having said that, I also realize that a 10 per cent in-crease in power rates tends to draw a public outcry and yet few recognize that de-mands to paint power poles, or relocate or bury power lines will all lead to in-creased rates for consumers. This is no different than ask-ing government to increase spending on health or edu-cation that will result in ei-ther an increase in taxation or reduced spending in oth-er areas. I mention most of these points because if there is one theme I hear often, it is that taxpayers gener-ally tell me they are taxed to death and do not want to pay any more increases in taxes. Yet, at the same time, I of-ten hear calls for increased funding in certain areas or claims of underfunding in other areas. Traditionally it

has fallen on elected offi-cials to achieve or attempt to achieve the balance. I sub-mit if you asked most on the street they would suggest we are collectively failing at all levels of government.

This is where democracy comes in. Very few people vote for increased taxes and ever fewer vote for reduced spending or services, yet we cannot continue down the path of unsustainable spending as has largely been occurring for close to the last 30 years in Brit-ish Columbia. Its no secret that I am fast approaching the twilight of my own po-litical career, however I do believe it is time that citi-zens all across this province take some time and give some very serious and real-istic consideration toward our future as both a prov-ince and an electorate. If we continue to escalate our demands through the demo-cratic process we may well one day reach a point where we exceed citizens abilities to pay for the government services we demand. Some other countries are already at or near this point and as taxpayers we must all be vigilant to ensure the same fate does not fall into British Columbia.

This bulletin has been prepared to inform Designers, Landscapers, Building Con-tractors, Architects, and Homeowners of the District of Peachlands Building Bylaw requirements pertaining to the construction of new or replacement / alteration of existing retaining walls.

New denition in Building Bylaw No. 1574 which was adopted on November 9, 2010 by Peachland Council and is now in affect:

Retaining Wall shall mean any structure other than a building wall which exceeds 1.5 meters in height from the ground level on one side to the ground level on the opposite side of the structure and which is intended to hold the ground in place against the forces of gravity. Multiple terraced retention structures at a ratio of less than 2 hori-zontal to 1 vertical shall be considered a single structure for calculating wall height.

This means that; terraced retention structures with a clearance ratio of less than 2/1 (2 horizontal to 1 vertical) between structures will be considered one structure in determining retaining wall height.

All proposed retaining structures in excess of 1.5 meters in height (combined or singular) constructed within the District will require the supervision of a registered professional and a requirement to obtain a building permit prior to commencing any retaining wall work.

Please note: Failure to comply with the requirements of Building Bylaw No. 1574 will result in a Stop Work Notice being posted on the construction project. Please contact the District Planning and Development Services for more information.

and preserves, Peachland Fall Fair

Imagine the surprise and elation when you open your mail and read: Congratulations! You have been selected as our 1st place winner in the Bernardin 2010 National Gift Basket Competition for your gift basket entry at the Peachland Fall Fair. Your $100.00 prize is en-closed.

This is what happened to Lorraine MacTavish this past week. Last Sep-tember she entered a gift basket commemorating the 2010 Winter Olympics, and won first place in the Peachland Fall Fair, which in turn entered her basket into the Bernardin Na-tional Competition held in Ontario in late Novem-ber. To win at the national level, she had to com-pete against the winners of over 200 county fairs, from British Columbia to

Newfoundland, which are sponsored by Bernardin. (There are 35 county fairs in BC alone.)

Two years prior, Lor-raine placed 2nd overall in Canada, but the win this year is an amazing accom-plishment considering the quality and quantity of en-tries.

Congratulations to Lor-raine and we hope this may encourage more peo-ple to enter their canning and preserves into this years Peachland Fall Fair.

January 21, 2011 The Peachland View 11

When I was a teenager I used to listen to a band named the Sweet Com-fort Band. Ironically, they played rock. Th ey dont ex-ist anymore. Th ey didnt become rockn roll legends like the Rolling Stones or U2. One song they sang was called You Led Me To Believe. While the lyr-ics arent specifi c enough to discover what the song-writer had been led to be-lieve, what is clear is that the mentor or teacher had eventually rejected what he had taught the songwriter. Th e chorus is worded like this You led me to be-lieve and I followed every-thing youd say and do. You led me to believe. Youve

changed your way of think-ing now, but I know what is true. And I will keep on holding on to all the things you led me to believe.

I believe the way God set up society is that parents become the main teachers or mentors of their chil-dren and teens. Alongside of them, extended family, coaches, teachers, pastors, and other trusted individu-als help guide a child and teen in becoming a focused and properly mentored adult. With our amazing ability to engage the world through the Internet, our children and teens learn about the world in a less controlled environment than they did in previous

generations. Th e mentors I listed above must interpret such learning.

When parents fail to re-alize their role or are so wrapped up in their own issues that they cant men-tor their children and teens, others need to step in and help. However truth, love, justice, mercy, ideas about the world, history, human nature and spiritual ideas are transferred from one generation to the next, it is clear that every generation has grown up and has very defi nite opinions on a num-ber of issues. My question is why do you believe what you believe?

Th is past June, my el-dest daughter who had just

turned 14 years old entered a crisis of faith. Specifi cally, she experienced a sudden awareness that the faith in Jesus her parents had taught her had to become her own faith. She couldnt simply rely only on the fact that mom and dad had taught her what to believe. So she wrestled with thoughts and ideas and emotions. By the end of the ordeal, she came out of the struggle recog-nizing that she believed for herself what she had been taught and that she was go-ing to live out her faith in Jesus because it had become her own.

So why do you believe what you believe? Who led you to believe? Have you

made that belief your own or are you still standing on the belief of those who have taught you? Im not just talking about spiritual things. Our political views, our views of human sexual-ity, the meaning of life, why one brand (of anything!) is better than another, or how to spend and save your money are all topics that re-quire decisions that in turn result in some kind of life-style.

Personally, I think par-ents need to hang onto the mentoring years a bit lon-ger. Having been a youth pastor for nine years I lamented the amount of freedom parents gave their teens without proper men-torship coming alongside

of that freedom. And, on the other hand, I lament-ed the amount of control some parents had over their teens to the point that teens were not allowed to think for themselves. More of-ten than not, both of these extremes resulted in teens growing up as irresponsible and misguided adults.

So whats the bottom line? Parentsknow what you believe and why you believe it. If your views arent well researched, then research them. Th en pass your be-liefs on to your children. Mentor them in this way through their childhood years and into their teen years. Th en begin to release them, passing the torchlike at the Olympics. Help them work through their struggles. Lead them to the place where they believe in specifi c concepts and ideas because theyve chosen it for themselves. At that point, even believing in something diff erent than you, is better than having them believe something simply because you believe it.

By Lisa Spalleck,Peachland Wellness Centre

Many random acts of kind-ness occur everyday at the Peachland Wellness Centre (PWC). Recently, the staff and volunteers experienced an increase in phone calls as the weather turned ugly and many of our residents felt more isolated than ever. Th ese folks know that they can call the PWC and reach a familiar voice on the end of the phone. With todays technology, we all know how reaching a warm body on the other end is a miracle in itself, let alone all the little miracles the PWC angels perform each day.

Over Christmas a fam-ily called Linda Tyreman, our long-term staff member, as they needed help bringing their aging father home from the hospital in time for Christ-mas. Whenever they can, the PWC refer these calls to the Red Cross Loan Cupboard in West Kelowna, but as the holi-days were in full swing, she knew they would be closed. Linda, along with the fam-ilys neighbours, were able to help them sort out what they needed in order to bring their father home for Christmas.

Another random act oc-

curred when Olive Fielding, the PWC Seniors Outreach coordinator, called a client to check in on her before the holidays. Our client was con-cerned that if she wasnt able to fi nd someone to look aft er her cat, she might not be able to go to Vancouver to spend Christmas with her daughter who was ill. Olive contacted Linda at the PWC, and her fi rst thought was No problem - I will just do it myself. Af-ter some consideration, Linda remembered that one of our volunteers lived close by and perhaps she would do it. Linda made the call and sure enough a PWC volunteer came to the rescue. Th is is just an example of the many connections the PWC makes all year long.

Recently, Linda arrived very early to open up the cen-tre only to fi nd a man wait-ing anxiously for help. He was waiting for the arrival of his pension and didnt know where to turn. Aft er looking over his paperwork, Linda was able to match him up with the correct resources and con-tact numbers he so desper-ately needed. Th e Peachland Wellness Centre Society was created just for this reason. Without any government agencies in Peachland, many

people just dont know where to turn or who they can trust for just this kind of help.

Private home care agencies also turn to the PWC for help with their clients. As these agencies are not located in Peachland, they are not fa-miliar with the resources that are available. Th e PWC helps them assist their clients with links to service providers and use of our transportation pro-gram.

Staff and volunteers at the PWC have earned the trust of many people in the com-munity. When they call the PWC it is like they are call-ing their own daughter for help. One senior called ask-ing if we could prepare a highly confi dential docu-ment for them on the com-puter. A PWC staff member was pleased to help and even recruited a board member to deliver the document where it needed to go!

Th ese are just a few of the great, heart-warming stories that emerge from the hap-penings at the PWC everyday. A quick visit or participation in one of our many programs and you will see what I mean. For more information, you can visit our website at www.peachlandwellnesscentre.ca.
