The flume rehab is finishedIt’s been a long, bumpy

ride, but water is flowing through Mark

Creek again

C AROLYN GR ANTBulletin Editor

The flume is finished. At City Council on Monday eve-ning, Mayor Don McCormick said that the last large rock was placed last Thursday and water is flowing through Mark Creek again rather than the bypass.

There will be landscaping and clean up work to be done in the spring, but for all intents and purposes the project — cause of considerable angst for two different mayors and councils — is wrapped up.

With the first phase of the flume going vastly over its esti-mated budget, Council kept a much closer eye on phase II. In December of 2015 it was announced that the second phase was $163,689 over bud-get, a figure Mayor McCormick said he could live with given the scope of the project. There is also an additional cost since

the project ran well over the expected finish date. Who will pay those costs — city or con-tractor — will be decided through arbitration.

McCormck says there will be a full report on the entire project submitted to Council, however, it is unlikely that it will be written until the dis-pute with the contractor is set-tled.

“However that turns out will affect the final financials. Shortly after that is settled, we’d like to see the report. I’d like it to include lessons learned and it will cover the

entire project. A lot of the diffi-culties with Phase II were caused by Phase I, so we want to look at all of it.”

McCormick says that over-all feedback is positive on phase Ii although there have been some complaints about the new concrete flume put in by BJ’s Restaurant.

“People are complaining that it is not really very artistic. We will be doing a few things to enhance that area.”

The City will plan an event in the spring to celebrate the completion of the project.

Taxing time

C AROLYN GR ANTBulletin Editor

Kimberley City Council and staff are deep in budget preparation at the mo-ment, finalizing a financial plan that will be released in early May.

Draft budgets have been prepared but at their regular meeting on Monday eve-ning, Kimberley City Council passed a resolution directing staff to prepare the 2016 Financial Plan with a projected tax increase of no more than 3.46 per cent. That would include a two percent general tax increase and 1.46 per cent for financ-ing the flume project.

“We have had preliminary budget dis-cussions,” said Mayor Don McCormick. “Staff have been directed to go back to the drawing board and come up with a plan that works within the resolution.”

McCormick says that most Kimberley residents already know about the 1.46 per cent to finance the flume project.

“That’s not a variable, most people are aware of that. However the two per cent is a variable. That basically represents our rate of municipal inflation. Two per cent is the maximum we are prepared to au-thorize this year. There may be additiona savings found there. We are still working very hard to keep the increase as low as possible, and it will be no more than 3.46 per cent.”

increase of 3.4%

What is Family Literacy?When we celebrate Family Lit-eracy week each January, some may wonder “what exactly does that mean”? Family Literacy re-fers to the way parents, children, and extended family members use literacy at home and in the community. It is something that occurs naturally during the routines of daily living, and helps children and adults get things done.

Most of us spontaneously engage in meaningful and pur-poseful literacy all of the time, regardless of our socioeconomic, cultural or linguistic di� erences. Our children learn within this context.

This year, we are celebrating Family Literacy with the theme “Let’s Play Together!” Play is vital in children’s lives. It is important for healthy physical, social, emotional and cognitive

development. It helps children make sense of the world around them.

Children are active learners, when they play they are exper-imenting, observing, making mistakes and trying again, imitating, asking questions and listening carefully. This is how they learn. Play is a child’s ‘work’ and allows opportunities to investigate, explore, experiment, mimic - and learn!

Parents, grandparents and caregivers have a special role. As children reach school age, they will only spend 900 hours a year in school compared to 7,800 hours outside of school. Clearly, this is important time to in� uence a child’s development. “Parents have the opportunity to enhance those enjoyable and invaluable learning moments that occur in daily life such as reading street signs, counting forks, and singing silly rhymes,” re� ects Diana Card, CBAL literacy facilitator. “These simple

skill-building experiences pro-vide the communication skills, excitement, and motivation to learn that is needed for life-long success.” When parents are more involved and more engaged, children tend to do better academically.

Literacy Matters for Children and Youth

In BC, one in four children is ‘de-velopmentally vulnerable’ when beginning kindergarten and one student in � ve is not completing high school in the expected time. Almost 4 in 10 youths aged 15 have insu� cient reading skills. This has an impact both socially and economically – to an annual cost of $2500 on employment insurance and $4000 on social assistance annually for each high school drop out.

Family Literacy Programs

Family Literacy programs are designed for both parents / caregivers and children. While they have a signi� cant impact

on children’s cognitive skills (in-cluding language, numeracy and literacy) they can also positively a� ect motivation, behaviour and self-con� dence. Adult learners bene� t also, from forming vital social and supportive networks to developing their own skills and further opportunities.

Kimberley is fortunate to have a number of Family Literacy programs provided through the Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy (CBAL) and o� ered out of the Blarchmont Early Learning Centre. Community partners help make this a vital resource for local families – where they can learn to cook healthy meals with their children, � nd assis-tance with learning strategies and homework, or simply enjoy time with other new parents learning songs, rhymes and stories with their toddlers.

Learning is a family a� air – help celebrate! See the community events listed on this page.

The great thing about “ shinny hockey “is you never know who is going to turn up to play. Such was the case at Wasa during the hol-idays when some Kim-berley lads came out to play on the new Wasa Lions Club Rink.

For those not famil-iar with “shinny”, it is a hockey game where the players have skates, sticks, and gloves (no other equipment) and a

gentleman agreement that the puck will not be “raised” off of the ice, which includes passing and shots on goal.

Being an “old timer’ I noticed that all of the kids who played were very well mannered and polite to me and each other. The game itself was a swift affair. We shared one dressed Goaltender Ty Verigin of Wasa Lake.

One of the boys on my team apparently plays for the Kimberley

The speediest of the speedy? Well that would go to Ben Verigin of Wasa, a 13 year old hockey player who ac-quitted himself very well in the company of older players.

The Wasa Lions rink is about 180 feet long located behind Wasa Lions Hall, has boards and great lighting and it is free. There is a figure skating rink next to it as well.

Colin Fabro, a long time resident of Kimberley, passed away recent-ly.

Colin did exceptionally well at University of Notre Dame in Nel-son, and Queens University (Kings-ton, Ontario).

The Canadian Govt came calling with an offer to work in the Diplo-matic Section of External Affairs. How hard is it to gain a position with External lAffairs?? Well of the 3000 who apply, they accept 6 to 10 people per year. Colin Fabro was accepted and posted to the Canadi-an Embassy in Lima, Peru. Colin personally told me he spent most of his time in the Lima Prison inter-viewing Canadians, who had be-come involved with drugs (this was the 70s).

Calling their parents back in Canada was part of the job Mr. Fabro did not relish whatsoever.

Growing up in Kimberley, Colin was an excellent baseball player, much like his twin brother Alan. Colin patrolled the outfield for the .B P.O.E. Angels under Coach John MacKenzie. If memory serves, Colin was a pretty good left fielder, and hit for a high average, until a back injury curtailed his baseball pursuits.

Twin brother Alan played pro ball in the .U.S.A.

Colin Fabro was the last mem-ber of his family to live in Kimber-ley. His twin Alan passed away on June 11th, 2015. Their mother, Fio-

rina, passed in July (at age 98). Fa-ther Milo Fabro and their eldest son Robert passed on some years ago.

Colin was a highly principled man, incredibly smart, yet very hum-ble. Colin always thought before he spoke , much like his Dad Milo. Alan was the extrovert, much like his Mom. As Kimberley is a “hockey town “ i would make this compari-son. In the 1950s 60s and 70s, the Fabro family were to Kimberley B..C what Gretzky was to hockey in the 1980s. A fair comparison.

As Chris Sorensen said to me re-cently “with the passing of Colin, the Fabro home on Burdett St is now empty for the first time in 60 years.

The Fabro Family left a legacy here in Kimberley. Each one was pretty amazing in their own right.

Nakusp RCMP took immediate public safety measure precautions on Monday, January 25 and has evacuated two residences at a mobile home park in Nakusp. Nakusp RCMP officers located what were con-firmed to be explosives, during the execution of a search warrant at a residence early Monday morning.

The Nakusp RCMP executed a search war-rant at a residence in the Canyon Trailer Park lo-cated on 9A Avenue, as result of an ongoing in-vestigation of illegal possession of explo-sives. A male resident was home at the time of police attendance and was cooperative with of-ficers. The man was taken into custody when officers located what ap-peared to be dynamite in the home.

Officers removed the man from the home and immediately notified the nearby residents, advising them of the sit-uation and that it was a necessary precaution that they be evacuated

until the items could be properly examined and dealt with by the BCRC-MP Explosives Detec-tion Unit.

The EDU officers confirmed that the items found in the home were explosives. The EDU members removed the items and transport-ed them to a location to be safely detonated.

The residents of two nearby homes, which had been evacuated early Monday morning, were permitted to re-turn home following the evenings’ outcome.

As a result of an on-going investigation, Jo-hann Blattnig who is in his 30s, was arrested when officers located what appeared to be dy-namite and a blasting cap in his residence during a search Monday morning. Blattnig has been charged with one count of Possession of explosives for an unlaw-ful purpose under sec-tion 82(1) of the crimi-nal code. Johann Blat-tnig has been remanded into custody until his next court appearance on Wednesday January 27, 2016.

man arrested

From page 1“The offender passed two

vehicles and then two more at which time he was in the opposite lane while going through the intersection,” Newel said. “Two vehicles coming from the other direc-

tion were forced onto the shoulder as they approached the intersection.”

Police were able to track down the owner of the vehi-cle and then the driver who was issued a violation ticket. The charge carries a $368

fine and 6 demerit points, Newel says.

Police are paying particu-lar attention to Highway 95A between Kimberley and Cranbrook, he says.

“Police have received a number of driving com-

plaints along Highway 95A between Cranbrook and Kimberley, especially during peak periods. Targeted en-forcement is being conduct-ed and complaints are acted upon if there is sufficient evi-dence.”

PAGE 6 WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 27, 2016

The outcome of the US presidential primaries was supposed to be Hillary Clin-ton, the wife of an ex-president, vs. Jeb Bush, the son and brother of other ex-pres-idents: both worthy but somewhat boring candidates, and both definitely members of the “establishment”. Less than a week before the first primary, the Iowa caucuses, Bush is dead in the water and even Clinton is looking vulnerable.

In Bush’s place as the Republican front-runner is Donald Trump, billionaire property developer, TV reality star and demagogue, who told a campaign rally last Saturday “I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose voters.” His arrogance is not mis-placed: to the despair of the Re-publican Party’s hierarchy, he probably has the party’s presidential nomination locked up.

Three months ago, Democrats thought this would virtually guarantee Hillary Clin-ton’s election, as a majority of Americans would refuse to vote for such a crude clown. That was probably correct, but it’s irrelevant if Clinton doesn’t get the Demo-cratic nomination. Ominously, her “social-ist” rival, Bernie Sanders, is neck-and-neck with her in Iowa and clearly ahead in the next primary, in New Hampshire.

Sanders is also raising as much money from small voluntary donations as Clinton has raised from her rich friends and corpo-rate donors. He can stay in the race right down to the finish, and the belief that he will fade when the more populous states vote in the later primaries is based on the shaky assumption that Americans will never vote for universal government-pro-vided health care, free college tuition and soak-the-rich taxes.

Sanders is not really a socialist — fifty

years ago he would have been an unre-markable figure on the left wing of the Democratic Party — but in any case “so-cialist” is no longer a curse-word in the United States. When pollster Frank Luntz asked “Would you be willing to vote for a socialist?” last June, nearly 60 percent of the Democrats surveyed said yes — and an astonishing 29 percent of the Republicans.

Both the major parties are facing a mu-tiny among their traditional supporters

this year. A presiden-tial race between Donald Trump and Bernie Saunders (the Tea Party vs. Occupy Wall Street) is entirely possible. But both Trump and Saunders are too radical for at

least a third of American voters. That would leave the middle ground of Ameri-can politics unoccupied.

Enter Michael Bloomberg, another bil-lionaire, who started out as a Democrat, became a Republican to run for mayor of New York City in 2001, and now calls him-self an independent. He won’t run if Hil-lary Clinton still seems likely to win the Democratic nomination — but if Sanders is pulling ahead, he probably will.

In a three-way race featuring Trump, Sanders and himself, Bloomberg would be the one “moderate” candidate, and he might even win. The probability that all this will come to pass is still well below 50-50, but the fact that it exists at all shows just how far American politics has departed from the usual track. Why?

The rise of Trump is mainly due to the fact that gerrymandering has turned 90 percent of the seats in the House of Repre-sentatives into safe seats for one party or the other: win the nomination, and the seat is guaranteed. So would-be Republi-

can candidates have to appeal to the par-ty’s strongest supporters, white work-ing-class people without a college educa-tion, not to voters in general.

A lot of these Republican stalwarts are very, VERY angry. Their incomes are stag-nant or falling, and as demography change gradually turns the United States into a country where the minorities are a majori-ty, they feel that they are being marginal-ised and forgotten. They want their candi-date to be angry too, and Donald Trump intuitively understands this and plays to it.

Paradoxically, Sanders appeals to some of the same people, because he also rep-resents a radical break with business as usual. Anecdotal evidence suggests that for many people whose first choice is Trump, their second choice is Sanders. But most of Sanders’s support comes from people who are not so much angry as de-spairing.

In the new documentary “Dream On”, comedian John Fugelsang sums up what has driven them farther left than they ever imagined they would go. “America has be-come a reality show,” he said. “Food, Med-icine, Rent: Pick two.” Median US house-hold income in constant dollars is still $4,000 a year lower than it was in 2000, and the ‘American Dream’ is dying if not dead.

So it’s a horse-race that anybody could win, unless Hillary Clinton gets the Demo-cratic nomination, in which case she would be the odds-on favourite to win. She even promised last Sunday to “relieve” Michael Bloomberg of the obligation to run by winning the nomination herself.

But if she does win, of course, nothing will really change, including an unre-formed financial system that is setting us all up for a rerun of the 2008 crash.

Marchi continues phenomenal season as Nitros edge Thunder CatsKimberley native scores twice, adds assist to build on franchise all-time scoring lead and boost team to victory

Taylor rocca PhoTo

Jared Marchi racked up two goals and an assist Tuesday night, padding his Kimberley Dynamiters franchise scoring lead and helping his squad to a 4-3 victory over the Creston Valley Thunder Cats.

Taylor rocc aSports Editor

Some things just get better with age. For the Kimberley Dynamiters, that something is Jared Marchi.

Affectionately re-ferred to as “Grandpa” by his coaches and teammates, Marchi con-tinues to do heavy lifting with captain Jason Rich-ter out of the lineup.

The 20-year-old na-tive of Kimberley did it all Tuesday night, scor-ing twice, setting up an-other and playing an ef-fective role on the pen-alty kill as he led the Ni-tros to a 4-3 victory over the Creston Valley Thunder Cats in KIJHL action at the Kimberley Civic Centre.

“Grandpa did a heck of a job,” said Jerry Bancks, head coach of the Kimberley Dynamit-ers, following Tuesday’s triumph. “He was a man amongst boys out there. He protected the puck, he drove the net a cou-ple more times…He could’ve easily had more. He was definitely a great leader out there tonight, which you need when you’ve got Richter out of the lineup. Some-one’s got to step up and he did a great job.

“He’s a great kid on and off the ice. He’s as Kimberley as you can be. It means a lot for him to play well here, because he’s always got lots of friends and fami-ly [in the crowd]. He’s been a great role model.

“It’s hard when you’ve been in the league as long as he has. Sometimes you have some lulls, but that’s to be expected. His lulls don’t last long. You just give him a gentle little reminder that he’s not working that hard and away he goes. He’s been phenomenal the whole time he’s been here. He’s what you want from the Dynamiters as a local guy. He’s a solid, solid person.”

The 2015-16 cam-paign has been a re-markable one for the 5-foot-11 East Kootenay product.

Tuesday’s output es-tablished new career highs in assists (33) and points (58) for Marchi, who also posted his 24th

and 25th goals of the season, tying the career high he set during the 2013-14 campaign.

On top of establish-ing career marks in all major offensive catego-ries, the locally-pro-duced Marchi recently etched his name in the Kimberley Dynamiters record book, becoming the first player in Junior ‘B’ franchise history to surpass the 200-point plateau while taking a firm grip on the fran-chise scoring lead. After Tuesday night, Marchi is up to 206 points (94 goals, 112 assists) in 219 games spread across six seasons (2010-11 to 2015-16).

Second in Junior ‘B’ franchise scoring is Richter, with 100 goals and 196 points through 177 games.

“It’s huge. I grew up watching these guys every Friday, Saturday night,” Marchi said. “I idolized a lot of them growing up. To come here and beat the all-time record for scoring is really something spe-cial that I look forward to holding for a while, hopefully.”

Marchi’s landmark 200th point came back on Jan. 8 in a 6-4 road win over the Golden Rockets.

“I honestly didn’t even know until after the game,” Marchi said. “Buckley just gave me a nice dish down low and I walked out, pulled it to my backhand and it was an empty net so I slid it in there. Really, it’s a sur-real moment after you realize that you’ve hit 200 points in the league.”

Fast-forward to Tues-day night and Marchi continued to rack up the points, opening the scoring in the first peri-od Tuesday against Creston. Taking a long lead pass from new line-mate Brodie Buhler at centre ice, Marchi burned in alone on Thunder Cats goalten-der Dawson Fennell be-fore snapping a quick shot home for a 1-0 lead.

In the second period, Keenan Haase sparked the man advantage by putting a power-play goal past Fennell. In on the act was Marchi, as-sisting on the play.

“He’s a pretty old guy,

so his wisdom from all the years in this league definitely helps us out,” said the 19-year-old Haase, with a laugh, in regards to his pal on the top power-play unit. “He’s strong on the puck, he guards it really well and many guys can’t get him off the puck. I try to look at that and try to copy what he does.”

After Liam Plunkett cut into the 2-0 Dyna-miters lead, Marchi saw to restoring the two-goal advantage for the home team.

Blazing down the right side, Marchi cut to the net before working his way cross crease, leaving Fennell down and out before roofing the puck to make it 3-1 heading into the second intermission.

“I just kept my feet moving all night,” Marchi said. “I was trying to pro-tect the puck as much as I could and take it to the net. Good things were happening for me. You throw a puck on net and it will hopefully find its way in.”

Early in the third pe-riod Thunder Cats cap-tain Jackson Bruce-Fuo-co clawed his team back within one only 3:55 into the final period.

At the other end, Fen-nell did everything in his power to give his squad a chance, including turn-ing aside a grade-A scor-ing opportunity off a two-on-one that saw Jor-dan Busch feed Franco Colapaolo. The cross-crease feed looked to be a sure-fire goal for one of the newest Nitros, but the 18-year-old Fennell shot from the right post to his left to make a spar-kling stop on Colapaolo and keep the game with-in reach.

Shortly after, veteran Eric Buckley made it 4-2 with his 20th goal of the campaign and the in-surance proved neces-sary as Plunkett regis-tered his second of the night 4:46 later to make it a 4-3 contest.

The final minutes of regulation, while nail-biting for the 446 in attendance at the Kim-berley Civic Centre, pro-duced nothing in terms of scoring for the visitors, despite Fennell making his way to the bench for the extra attacker.

By the end of the night, the Thunder Cats rookie puck stopper turned aside 27 shots, while Mitch Traichevich was steady at the other end, making 16 saves on 19 shots.

Both Nitros goalten-ders saw ice time Tues-day night, as Tyson Brouwer entered the contest for a whopping 46 seconds in the first period as Traichevich experienced a minor “equipment malfunc-tion,” according to Dy-namiters president/trainer Chad Koran.

Brouwer was perfect in his one shift between the pipes, turning aside the lone shot sent his way.

After going 0-for-7 on

the man advantage in Friday’s 4-2 win over the Columbia Valley Rock-ies, the Dynamiters’ third-ranked power-play unit (24.0 per cent) was back in regular form Tuesday, going 1-for-3.

Also taking care of business was the Dyna-miters’ second-ranked penalty kill (87.9 per cent) as the Thunder Cats went 0-for-5 on the power play Tuesday.

Next up, the Dyna-miters (34-5-0-4) head to Castlegar to face the Rebels (27-12-2-0) Sat-urday night.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You’ll slow down by choice. A demanding boss might put the kibosh on a heartfelt project. Once you cool off some, you will put greater effort into a differ-ent, more meaningful venture. You refuse to let anyone push you in a certain direction. To-night: Get some exercise. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Someone enjoys tossing you his or her problems, because he or she believes you have the cre-ativity to sleuth right through them. Your ability to get past present thinking and break away from patterns allows you to see situations in a very dif-ferent light. Tonight: Out on the town. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You are likely to express a clarity that is unique to you. You’ll rec-ognize where you have created a problem for yourself in a do-mestic situation. The question remains: How do you fix this is-sue? A discussion with a partner will be the first step. Tonight: A

cozy night at home. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Don’t do nothing. If someone is disagreeable, make a point of initiating a talk with him or her. You are big on having con-versations to clear up problems, but not everyone is responsive to this. Know that you might get nowhere with this person. Tonight: Out on the town. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) After a risk has backfired, you might choose to lie low for a while. Good idea! You might believe that an overly confident associate is probably wrong. How you convey this informa-tion to this person will make all the difference in its reception. Tonight: Count your change. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) The Force is with you! You might experience a momentary back-fire, but you’ll manage to turn it around into a success story. Use your intuitive and creative sens-es, and you will come up with a very successful idea, project and/or interaction. Tonight: Be more spontaneous. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

The smart move is to acknowl-edge that you don’t feel up to snuff. Playing it low-key works. You have a lot to do involving a family member and a surprise, which you won’t want to dis-close as of yet. No one will know unless you reveal it to them. Tonight: Be secretive. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You tend to express yourself in a fiery way. As a result, you could cause yourself a problem; people are not used to this type of behavior and self-expression from you. Once you get past a hurdle and focus on the bottom line, you will be a sure winner. Tonight: As you like it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might feel encumbered by a professional situation. Tap into your imaginative streak. Your resourcefulness is one of your assets, but you often don’t count it as one. You know how to successfully turn around a difficult situation. Tonight: A force to be dealt with. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You’ll ask yourself why you are holding back in a dynamic situ-

ation. You can transform others’ perceptions, yet you might re-fuse to. What do you gain by not helping others see the big pic-ture? Open doors -- not only for you, but also for those around you. Tonight: Watch a movie. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) To your credit, you are discov-ering how easily you can relate on a one-on-one level. In fact, a discussion about how you view certain situations, specifically with a key person, is likely to open doors you didn’t even re-alize existed. Tonight: Celebrate this particular relationship. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might feel bombarded by several associates or loved ones. The cost of popularity is high! Be willing to respond as much as you can, yet still honor your priorities. How you say “no” or “I can’t” will be instrumental in your interactions. Tonight: Get on the phone and return calls. BORN TODAY Composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756), U.S. Chief Justice John Roberts (1955), author Lewis Carroll (1832)

Dear Annie: Several years ago, I had a much talked about affair with an older married man at my office. It lasted for several years. I was single at the time, and I met him at a very low period in my life. He told me I was smart, pretty and fun to be with. He showered me with flowers and gifts. He led me to believe his marriage was loveless and his only happiness was seeing me at work and talking to me on the phone. We did everything leading up to sex, but never actually completed intercourse due to religious reasons. After a few years, I met the man I am now married to. The older man became very angry and began harassing me, emotionally and verbally. I reported him to my supervisors several times, but it only made matters worse. He has finally retired, but I still feel him watching me. I can’t prove anything, and I can’t tell my husband because he has no idea how involved we were. Aside from warning other women to beware of married men bearing love and gifts, what can I do? -- Learned My Lesson Dear Learned: If your affair did not include intercourse and it happened before you met your husband, he may be more understanding than you think. Everyone makes mistakes. Also, if the people in your office are aware of the relationship, your husband may find out about it anyway. A loving spouse can be a tremendous source of support, and your husband may be perfectly willing to forgive this lapse in judgment. Nonetheless, it will help you to talk to someone, and if your husband is not the right person, please consider discussing your fears with a counselor or clergyperson. The more serious problem is the possibility that the ex is stalking you. If you ever catch him watching your home, car or office, or following you anywhere, please notify the police immediately and, if necessary, get a restraining order. Dear Annie: I have read many letters in your column from mothers-in-law who don’t understand why they have a strained relationship with their daughters-in-law. May I add a perspective from the other side? We lived a couple of miles from my in-laws. We had a good relationship until our children were born. Then my MIL dropped in unannounced at least once a day. She refused to call in advance, despite numerous requests to do so. Her attitude was overbearing and critical. She had nothing positive to say, and criticized our house, child rearing and financial decisions. She loudly and repeatedly accused me of putting my kids in front of the TV all day, which was blatantly untrue. A new job across the country helped separate me from her venom. Her terrible behavior and her efforts to hang on to her son cost her a decent relationship with my husband and any connection to her grandchildren. Perhaps the letter writers need to honestly examine their own behavior to determine the cause of their family strife. It isn’t always the daughter-in-law. -- Been There, Survived Dear Been: How sad for everyone. We hope all estranged family members will make a genuine effort to consider whether their own actions need adjusting before placing the blame on the other person.

Olga Edythe Graham (nee Bortnik)

August 8, 1937 - January 20, 2016

Our dear loving mother, Olga, passed peacefully in her home at the age of 78 years.

Olga is survived by her 4 children Stewart (Laura), Lorna, Jean Carruthers (Paul), Sonia Graham; brothers Phillip (Teri) and Max (Judy); grandchildren (Robert (Christin), Jessica,

Andrew, Elizabeth, Grace, Hannah); great-grandchildren (Colt, Violet, Isla); nieces and nephews; Aunt Manya and cousins in Belarus. Olga was predeceased by her husband Eliot (2006), daughter Laurie (2013), parents Maksym and Elizabeth, brother Stephen and sisters Tanya and Helen.

Olga was born in Creston, BC and grew up in the Crowsnest Pass region graduating high school in Cranbrook, where her parents retired. She attended business college in Calgary while working as a stenographer and teletypist. She met Eliot at a dance hall in Balzac and eloped in Billings, Montana.

Olga dedicated her life to her family. She was an exceptional family matriarch and friend. Relationships and family bonds were important to her. She was consistently compassionate, taking time to listen and offer kind, sound advice to all who knew her.

A visitation will be held at Westlawn Funeral Home, Edmonton, AB, Thursday, January 28 from 7-9 pm. The service will be held at Trinity United Church, 8810 Meadowlark Road, Edmonton, AB, Friday, January 29 at 10 am.

Donations (in lieu of flowers) can be made to the Edmonton Humane Society

In times of grief, these caring professionals are here to serve and comfort your family.

BC SPCA supports federal e-petition to ban import, sale of dog and cat fur

A Vancouver MP has sponsored a new e-petition, or electron-ic petition, asking the federal government to ban the import and sale of dog and cat fur in Canada, a move supported by the BC SPCA.

Created by The Association for the Protection of Fur-Bearing Animals and sponsored by Vancouver Kingsway MP Don Davies, the petition, e-123, will be formally introduced in the House of Commons if it receives 100,000 signatures by May 17, 2016.

“Cat and dog fur can be used in many products that the gener-al public may not be aware of,” says Geoff Urton, BC SPCA senior manager, stakeholder relations. “It is typically found on things like the trim of a jacket, or lining in a pair of boots or gloves, or the plush exterior of a ‘stuffi e’ toy.”

Sadly, that means domestic dogs and cats and raccoon dogs, who are a member of the canine family, are raised and kept in tiny cages and eventually, slaughtered for their meat and fur in many foreign countries, Urton notes. Dog and cat fur re-mains legal to import and sell in Canada, although the United States, the UK, Australia and the European Union have all prohibited the practice.

“The BC SPCA believes that all animals should enjoy, as a minimum, fi ve essential freedoms, and (dogs and cats) living their entire lives in tiny cages only to be slaughtered does not align with those freedoms,” says Urton. “Many people might not know that the ‘faux’ fur trim on their coat actually contains real fur because there is no requirement for labelling. We support the ban and encourage all animal lovers to take the time to sign the e-petition.”
