There are terrifying pictures and video im-ages coming out of the Fort McMurray area as a huge wildfire has forced the evacuation of over 80,000 people.

It’s not just the scope of the destruc-tion — entire neigh-bourhoods being de-stroyed by fire — but also the speed at which the fire has advanced towards, and into, the city itself.

Over 80,000 people fled the fire in Fort Mc-Murray this week, and there is a personal story behind each one of them. Kyle Lomon, born and raised in Kimberley, and now working as a firefighter at one of the oilfield sites, spoke to the Kimberley Bulletin from an evacuation centre in Edmonton on Thursday morning.

Lomon, and his part-ner Katie Brown, also from Kimberley, who works at the Northern Lights Regional Health Centre as a nurse, evacu-ated Fort McMurray on Tuesday evening.

Before they left, they lent a hand with the hos-pital evacuation.

Last fall, there were public meetings held with residents of Areas E and B to discuss an Agricultural Land Com-mission boundary re-view Some landowners had received letters stating that their land would be removed from the Agricultural Land Reserve, others had not.

There was concern expressed by residents on both circumstances. One of the primary areas of concern was that hav-ing a property removed from the ALR would mean higher taxes. For those on a fixed income or pension, this was troublesome.

At the time, both Co-lumbia River Revel-stoke MLA Norm Mac-donald and Kootenay East MLA and Minister of Energy and Mines Bill Bennett said that their constituents had expressed concern on the process.

This spring, the Ministry of Agricul-ture is proposing an amendment to the Agriculture Land Commission Act (ALCA). The amendment will support the preser-vation of land in the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR) by requiring the ALC to obtain the owner’s consent

before excluding land from the re-serve in situations when the applica-tion is not from the landowner, such

as when the ALC is con-ducting a boundary re-view.

The amendment was introduced Monday in the Legislature and Mac-donald says he is pleased to see it.

“It requires property owners to agree to hav-ing their land taken out of the ALR. It can’t be arbitrarily removed,” he said. “It’s what people were asking for.”

However, nothing has changed with the process for those wanting their land out of the ALR. That remains the same.

Still, Macdonald says it’s a good thing.

“It hasn’t passed yet, it was just introduced but it will pass this session. I’m really pleased they’ve acted as quickly as they have.”

Bennett says that the Agriculture Minister was acting on his advice, as arbitrary removal from the ALR was one of the

chief concerns he heard last fall.

“The boundary re-views are worth doing but it is grossly unfair to force someone out if they don’t want out,” he said. “Perhaps fi-nally Norm and I agree on some-thing!”

OPEN HOUSESEASONAL OUTDOOR PATIO BYLAW

FOR THE CITY OF CRANBROOK

The City of Cranbrook is considering adopting a new bylaw to facilitate establishing seasonal outdoor patios on City owned lands in downtown Cranbrook.

Specifi cally, the proposed draft bylaw provides regulations for establishing seasonal patios accessory to eating and drinking establishments on City sidewalks and/or on-street parking stalls in the downtown core.

The purpose of the open house is to provide an opportunity to review the bylaw, ask questions and collect feedback.

The Open House will be held at:

Manual Training SchoolCranbrook Public Library

1212 2nd Street North, CranbrookWednesday, May 11, 2016

6:00 pm to 8:00 pm

If you have any questions, please contact Rob Veg, Senior Planner at (250) 489-0241 or [email protected]. Copies of the draft bylaw will be made available at the Open House.

From Page 1“Our company is just

waiting for approval to send one apparatus and a team of firefighters in. Right now they are doing prevention work but as soon as they get that wrapped up, the plans are to send out a team. I want to be on it.”

Katie is waiting for word from Alberta Health. Many of the pa-tients from Fort McMur-ray are now in Edmon-ton and she has been told she will likely be put to work at one of the local hospitals to help with the increased pa-tient load.

In the meantime, Kyle says that the mood at the evacuation centre is relatively upbeat.

“Everyone is pretty tired but in a pretty good mood. A lot of people have lost their homes but they are trying to stay positive. From what we are hearing it could be ten days, two weeks

or more before anyone can go back. And for people who lost their homes, it could be a lot longer. We’re not sure where we stand, really.”

Lomon says he knows people want to help and the best thing to do is to donate to the Red Cross because both the Alberta and federal governments are match-ing dollar donations.

“If you have a way to send stuff, gift cards, pet supplies, and kid’s stuff. There are a lot of little kids here.

“And we’d like to thank everyone at home in the East Kootenay for the support and the help already coming, like the airplane.”

Integra Air flew a plane full of supplies out Wednesday evening.

You can donate to the Red Cross at donate.redcross.ca/ and follow the Alberta Fires Emer-gency Appeal link.

From Page 1

Highways were jammed and cars were running out of gas on the streets during the largest evacuation in Alberta history. Some residents had no time to pack, escaping with family members and pets with only clothes on their back.

Though there isn’t a city as large as Fort Mc-Murray in the East Kootenays, officials with the Southeast Fire Centre and the Region-al District of East Koo-tenay stress the impor-tance of being pre-pared and having an

evacuation plan. The possibility of

East Kootenay resi-dents being evacuated from a wildfire isn’t necessarily out of the question, considering it happened last year during a blaze out near Kragmont and Baynes Lake.

Granted, Kragmont is a much smaller scale than Fort McMurray, but it always helps to be prepared for the possi-bility, according to Tra-vis Abbey, the Emer-gency Services Coordi-nator with the RDEK.

“I think it became pretty clear last night on any television chan-nel, watching what’s going on in Fort Mc-Murray that I’d say most of those people probably didn’t have an opportunity to take what they wanted to take with them,” Abbey said.

“It came by surprise to them and there’s no reason why we couldn’t expect something simi-lar to happen like that

here under the right circumstances, so we’re just trying to impress upon people the need to be prepared in ad-vance.”

According to an RDEK emergency pre-paredness document, there are three levels that go into publicly announcing evacua-tions.

• An evacuation alert is the first step, which advises residents of the potential need for evacuation. Any res-idents or households affected by an evacua-tion alert should be prepared to leave quickly and should gather personal sup-plies necessary for sev-eral days.

• An evacuation order is the second es-calation, which dictates that all residents are re-

quired to leave the area.

• When the danger has passed, an evacua-tion order is rescinded, which allows residents to return to the affected area and their homes.

If there is an imme-diate danger to proper-ty or life due to a wild-fire or an explosion, the evacuation alert may go directly to an evacu-ation order.

“The biggest thing is being aware of your surroundings for one, your physical sur-roundings, as far as your property goes, but also your neighbour-hood and your access and egress routes from your neighbourhood,” said Abbey.

“A bit of preplanning with your neighbours in advance helps. We’re currently working with

the community of Moyie giving them some advice on how to prepare themselves as a neighbourhood, be-cause you just may not have the opportunity to have a whole lot of time to think about it.”

Abbey also said that people should be self-resilient, meaning that if a sudden evacua-tion occurs, they can take care of themselves and have a stockpile of necessities such as extra gas, food and water, along with other items such as import-ant papers (wills, birth certificates), appropri-ate prescription drugs, credit cards and cash.

Additionally, if under an evacuation alert and if time per-mits, there are things that people can do to prepare your home and

property for an incom-ing wildfire.

Inside the home, shut all windows and doors, leaving them unlocked and move all flammable furniture the the centre of rooms away from windows and doors. Shut off gas meters or propane, turn off pilot lights as well as air condition-ing.

Leave house lights on so fire fighters can see your house under smokey conditions.

Outside your house, gather up flammable times such as door mats, toys and trash cans and store them in-side, move barbecues away from the house and connect garden hoses to spigots for use by firefighters.

Leave exterior lights on so your home is vis-ible to firefighters in heavy smoke condi-tions or in darkness and leave a ladder, if you have one, so fire-fighters can access the roof, if needed.

However, before any imminent threats of a wildfire, property own-ers can do things like reducing pine needles, leaves and other small fuel. Keep a three-me-tre barrier of non-com-bustible material away from your house and trim any tree limbs that may overhang struc-tures on your property.

Though it’s only the month of May, wildfire season is here, accord-ing to Karlie Shaugh-nessey, a Fire Informa-tion officer with the Southeast Fire Centre.

“Wildfire season is definitely here already, it’s earlier than nor-mal,” Shaughnessey said. “We’ve also been experiencing some re-cord-breaking tem-peratures for the month of April and into May, so its really im-portant that people liv-ing, especially near the forest land and and grassland areas, should take some precau-tions.”

were arrested, appeared before a Judicial Justice and were released with conditions. Both face charges of Trafficking, possession of a con-trolled substance, ob-struction and drug manufacturing. Investi-gators also seized the traffickers’ vehicle, which will undergo pro-cess under the BC civil forfeiture Act as offence related property.

The seizures are the result of a months long investigation into the traffickers activities by the Cranbrook CRU which was greatly as-sisted by a traffic stop conducted by a vigilant Cranbrook General Duty Member.

“The results were a combined effort of both the Cranbrook and Kimberley RCMP units that continues to demonstrate that drug trafficking knows no

geographical boundar-ies,” said Cpl. Chris Newel Kimberley RCMP.

Of concern was the presence of Metham-phetamine being ped-dled within the two towns by the traffickers which, as experienced by other communities can be devastating. Any persons with informa-tion regarding drug traf-ficking are urged to con-tact Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

A small fire at the Fort Steele transfer sta-tion was quickly con-tained on Tuesday by a B.C. Wildfire crew and RDEK staff.

“We had a grass fire on our transfer station property Tuesday after-noon when a con-trolled burn of a small brush pile got away,” says RDEK Solid Waste Superintendent Jim Penson. “Thanks to the swift action of a BC Wildfire Service crew, staff, contractors and a neighbour we were able to extinguish the fire very quickly and prevent the situation from becoming more serious.”

The blaze burned 1.5 hectares and was contained within three hours by two B.C. Wild-fire Service personnel, RDEK staff, a neigh-bour and a water ten-der.

The incident is a stark reminder that wildfire season has ar-rived in the East Koote-nay, indeed across the Southern Interior.

Community-wide preparation, popula-tions and infrastruc-ture can withstand the

devastating effects of a wildfire, reducing loss of life and property. That preparation de-pends on strong collab-oration between agen-cies and the public at the provincial and local levels.

Important wild land fire preparedness con-cepts include:

• Defensible space — The required space between a building structure and wildland area that surrounds it, creating a buffer be-tween a home and ra-diant heat or flames.

• The Ember Issue — Windblown embers are a cause of concern in the wildland urban interface because most structures are not de-stroyed by direct flames, but rather from embers. Embers may precede the fire front, carried by winds that distribute burning brands or embers over long distances, which can ignite fuels on structures or property.

• Hardening your home — A conceptual plan that looks to pro-tect a home through it’s actual composition of roofs, eaves, vents, decks and windows.

• Home ignition zone — Another con-ceptual plan that places the home in the context of hits surroundings. In a high hazard area, this zone can extend up to 20 feet from a home and includes a preparation focus on the home and surrounding vegetation.

“There are various public education tools focusing on wild land fire preparedness from which individuals and

homeowners can learn,” said Wayne Price, the Director of Fire and Emergency Services in Cranbrook. “At the pro-vincial level, these in-clude the FireSmart Communities program. The program focuses on teaching residents how to adapt to living with wild land fire and en-courages neighbours to jointly collaborate in a community-wide effort before a fire threat to

prevent the loss of life and property.”

For more informa-tion on the FireSmart Program, visit: http://bcwildfire.ca/preven-tion/firesmart.htm

The Southeast Fire Centre warns that fire danger rating in the Cranbrook area are moderate, with pockets of high.

“For the Cranbrook area, it looks like the danger rating is moder-

ate with a couple pock-ets of high,” said Karlie Shaughnessey, a Fire Information Officer with the SFC. “I know that we are supposed to get some light precipi-tation this evening and into tomorrow, so that will reduce the risk, but it looks like we’re sup-posed to get some warmer temperatures coming for the week-end, so that will in-crease the risk.”

Shaughnessey says that there have been 18 fires to date in the SFC that has burned 85 hectares — all save one being person-caused.

Activity is higher than normal, as the five year average for this time of year is nine fires that burns 44 hectares, she added.

Integra Air donated a flight full of locally donated items to Fort McMur-ray evacuees on Wednesday evening, as the Cranbrook community rallied to support those who have been dis-placed by a massive wildfire threaten-ing the Northern Alberta town.

Cranbrook residents spent Wednesday stockpiling all kinds of items such as underwear, socks, pil-lows, toiletries and pet food at the Manual Training School, which was

then trucked up to the Canadian Rockies International Airport and flown to Edmonton.

The Jetstream 31 aircraft was tasked for Alberta fire fighting efforts, but after it’s finished it’s charter, tax-ied to the Canadian Rockies Interna-tional Airport to fly the supplies up to Fort McMurray.

The donations were given to th-eEdmonton Emergency Relief Society at the Edmonton International Air-port, which were then dispersed to locations housing evacuees.

L ast week a weasel weaselled its way into the Large Hadron Collider near Geneva and managed to bring the

world’s largest atom smasher to a halt. No atoms were smashed for a while, but the weasel was. Not much left of the critter ac-cording to news reports. Pop goes the weasel.

In other weasel news, Ted Cruz is kaput in Indiana, which spells the end of his run at the White House. While evangelical Christians in Indiana preferred him to Trump, they couldn’t forgive Cruz’s larger sin. He called a basketball hoop a ring. I know! Blasphemy! In Indiana if you don’t know what to call the thingy that holds the basketball net, you are done. Hoop! Don’t forget that, Cruz. Not that he’s likely to forget it, since the lowly metal ring, er, hoop, brought him down.

Oh and also, Carly Fiorina, Cruz’s Vice Weasel, in a sweet metaphor, fell off the stage while introducing Cruz at a cam-paign event this week. Now she will fall off the political stage altogether.

That means that the way has been cleared for the Weasel in Chief, Donald Trump, to pick up the Republican nomina-tion on the first ballot. It is barely a year since he announced his nomination to great jocularity from one and all. Nobody is laughing now.

Trump not only picked up the Indiana

primary, he also picked up an endorse-ment from a Grand Wizard , or maybe Weasel, of the KKK. Trump supporters say The Donald can’t choose who endorses him and refuse to face the rather obvious fact that the KKK wouldn’t be endorsing

someone who didn’t es-pouse somewhat similar views to their own. Purely coincidence! The KKK could have endorsed Ber-nie Sanders too, but chose not to because they are yoogely impressed by The Donald. And not by any

remarks he made that could be construed as racist and made their pointy, white hats twitch. The KKK is not just about racism! It’s… Oh, forget it. There’s only one reason the Klan would endorse Trump and we all know it.

Trump also refused to leave the lowest valley on the low road of the presidential campaign by accusing Ted Cruz’s father Rafael of being involved in the assassina-tion of JFK. Cruz resounded by calling Trump a pathological liar. Strong words from the man dubbed Lyin’ Ted. Such is the state of discourse in U.S. politics this year.

In slightly less weasely, but still import-ant news, right here at home, the BC NDP has filed a complaint with the province’s conflict of interest commissioner about Christy Clark’s allowance. You know if I

had known as a kid that there was some-where I could file a complaint about the measly (not weasely) 25 cents a week my parents gave me, I would have been on that. Of course Premier Clark’s allowance is somewhat larger. It seems the BC Liberal Party pays her an extra 50 large a year, on top of the $192,000 we taxpayers pay her.

The NDP says that the money is raised through political contributions, including donations that come from private meet-ings with the Premier, and that’s not right.

Actually, it sounds a little shifty to me too, but if I were a BC Liberal or Premier Clark I wouldn’t be too worried. It’s the BC NDP filing the complaint after all. You’ve got to figure they’ll find a way to mess it up.

Meanwhile in Quebec, Pierre Karl Péladeau has announced he is resign-ing as head weasel of the Parti Québécois, less than a year after being elected leader of the sovereignist party.

Péladeau  told a news conference in Montreal he made the decision for family reasons. 

“I had to make a difficult  choice be-tween my family and our political project,” he said in a speech. “I chose my family.”

How honourable. He will put off trying to rip a country apart in order not to rip his family apart. What a belette! Guess what that means?

OPINION/EVENTSCranbrook Townsman / Kimberley Bulletin

W e’ve all seen the bumper sticker about doing random acts of kind-ness. It’s a wonderful concept.

Being kind does two things: it makes us feel good about ourselves; and it helps someone else.

Being kind does a third thing: this is how we change the world. I know, it sounds like an outrageous claim. But I believe it to be true.

Last week, at a work-shop, the speaker told us about Cesar Chavez, a la-bour leader and civil rights activist. He is best known for founding the National Farm Workers Association and organiz-ing the grape boycott in California, which resulted in higher wages for mostly immi-grant workers who worked for grape and lettuce growers.

Chavez was asked once how you start a movement. His reply? “You talk to one per-son; then you talk to another; after that, you talk to another.” The reporter persisted, “Yes, yes, but how do you organize a move-ment?” Chavez replied, “You talk to one person; then you talk to another; after that, you talk to another.”

The same applies to how we can change the world through random acts of kindness. Be kind to one person; then be kind to an-other; then be kind to another person.

As we begin practicing kindness in this way, we become more aware of what we are actually doing. We become mindful of how we behave from moment to moment.

I was reading a blog the other day, in

which the writer mentioned that as he was fumbling for his boarding pass at the air-port, he dropped a dollar (presumably an American paper dollar). A woman told him, “Sir you dropped a dollar.” “Her son picked it up, and I told the boy he could have the dollar. Another guy comes up to me after and said, ‘That was really nice of you—that kid will remember that the rest of his life.’”

The writer Maya Angelou once said, “I’ve learned that peo-ple will forget what you said; people will forget what you did; but people will never forget how you made them feel.” We have the ability to radically change someone’s life for good by mak-

ing them feel good, either by a kind act or word.

In this way, random acts of kindness can change the world.

We are so addicted to “stuff” these days, but the sad reality is that “stuff” discon-nects us from the people around us. I want to suggest that laughing with a friend is more important and ultimately more satis-fying than buying a better car to impress your friend. Saying something pleasant to a stranger is more beneficial than buying a new pair of shoes for yourself. Making a person smile is more lasting than filling our lives with more stuff.

Recently, a friend alerted me to the “1,000 Acts of Kindness Challenge.” You can find it at 1000acts.ca. It is “a social move-ment that encourages people to end hate by spreading kindness — one generous act at a time!”

It was initiated in 2009 by the LUSO Community Services program in London, Ontario. It challenged people living in Lon-don and surrounding communities to complete 1,000 acts of kindness during October. The movement took off, and over 50,000 acts of kindness were recorded. Since then, the movement has spread throughout Canada and the USA.

Perhaps this year it can reach Cran-brook, not just in October, but every day.

What kind of acts of kindness? Simple things. Inexpensive things. Wonderful things.

Buy someone a cup of coffee. Smile at someone. Say thank you to the cashier at the grocery store, and call them by name; after all, they’re wearing name tags for a reason! Open a door for someone whose arms are full. Offer to rake leaves for your elder neighbor. Offer a hug to someone. Help a new mom in your neighbourhood. Be grateful. Don’t cuss at the driver who’s trying to cut in front of you; just let them in. After all, it will only delay you 3 or 4 sec-onds. Encourage someone instead of criti-cizing them. Be present. Drop a can of soup in the food bin for the Food Bank.

I guarantee you that as we all begin to do this, we’ll also become more mindful of our actions and we all will pay it forward. As we do that, we’re going to change the world.

Can you think of a better thing to do than that?

You can start today! It’s simple. It’s easy. It’s satisfying.

Changing the World Through Kindness

Rev. YmeWoensdregt

S hortly before John Kasich dropped out of the race for the Republican presidential nomination, leaving

Donald Trump as the only candidate, the Ohio governor put up a spoof video on the internet. Modeled on the old-fashioned intro that scrolls up the screen at the start of each Star Wars movie, it en-visioned a future in which Trump won the candidacy, lost the presidential elec-tion, and left Hillary Clin-ton triumphant.

Titled “Our Only Hope”, Kasich’s video began: “Upon defeating Donald Trump in the largest landslide since Rea-gan in 1984, President Hillary Clinton is preparing to name her newest Supreme Court justice, Elizabeth Warren. (House) Speaker Nancy Pelosi is planning new tax hikes, hoping that Senate President Chuck Schumer and his new Democratic majority can swiftly get it to the President’s desk for her signature.”

“New executive orders restricting the Second Amendment are being drafted while increased federal spending on Obamacare is readied. Meanwhile, our al-lies across the world are swiftly losing faith in America’s role as a global leader, em-powering our enemies and leaving Ameri-ca in a more dangerous position. But we have hope it can be different...”

It was a roll-call of all the nightmarish things that Republicans fear a Clinton pres-idency would do: create a “liberal” majority on the Supreme Court, raise taxes, bring in gun control, and spend more money on health care for poor Americans. Kasich, of course, was the “Only Hope” to prevent this disaster. (It was his video, after all.)

If Kasich didn’t get the Republican

nomination, according to the video, then Trump would win it, but then lose the na-tional election and put Hillary Clinton into the presidency. That would be followed shortly by dragons, plagues and strange portents in the sky, leading to the full-on End Times during her second year in office.

Well, Kasich is out of the race, Trump will get the Re-publican nomination, and Clinton will win the presi-dency by a landslide, just like the video says. Not only that, but the Democrats real-ly may win control of both houses of Congress.

Hillary Clinton probably will create a liberal majority on the Supreme Court, tax the rich a bit more, and expand the Afford-able Care Act (what Republicans call “Obamacare”). She probably will tackle gun control, too, although you should not hold your breath while awaiting a positive result.

She will certainly push on with Obama’s intiatives on climate change and add to them. (She talks about wanting “half a bil-lion more solar panels deployed in the first four years.”) But will she do anything genu-inely surprising? It would be astounding if she did. Hillary Clinton is “a safe pair of hands,” not a radical.

On foreign policy, she belongs to the “Washington consensus”, so she is suspi-cious of Russia and Iran, reflexively pro-Is-rael, and uncertain what to do about China. She resents the fact that people still bring up her vote in support of George W Bush’s invasion of Iraq in 2003, but it does high-light her inability to think outside the box that the rest of the consensus is trapped in at any given time.

She takes the standard liberal positions

on practically every domestic issue from gay marriage and abortion (cautiously pro) to immigration (no mass deportation of il-legals). She has talked about the need to reform the rules on political campaign fi-nances, but would have trouble in getting that through even a Democratic-controlled Congress (“the best Congress that money can buy”), and might just decide not to waste her political capital that way.

If all this makes Hillary Clinton sound like a profoundly unexciting president, that would not bother her a bit. Nearly three decades of experience with the political game at the highest level has reinforced her natural tendency to think only in terms of incremental change, and her whole ap-proach to politics is managerial, not trans-formational. She will not rock the boat.

This is perhaps not such a bad thing in a peacetime national leader — and the Unit-ed States really is at peace, despite the small overseas military commtments that entail an occasional military casualty.

It is perhaps especially not a bad thing in the First Female President in American history, just as it was not a bad thing for her predecessor, the First Black President in US history. When you are setting a new prece-dent for who can hold the office, steady competence is a better advertisement for the new rules than high excitement.

It’s also the best way to assure a second term in office — which could also be within Hillary Clinton’s grasp if the Republican Party splits before either before or after the electoral debacle that, with Trump as its candidate, now seems almost certain. Al-though that would make her 77 at the end of her second term.

Taylor rocc aCALGARY — Peyton

Krebs has been tabbed as the next elite-level talent for the Kootenay Ice.

The Ice selected Krebs, a 15-year-old for-ward, with the first-over-all pick at the 27th an-nual WHL Bantam Draft, Thursday morn-ing at Hotel Arts in Cal-gary.

“Peyton, not only is he a building block, he’s going to be a top-line forward,” said Garnet Kazuik, director of scouting for the Koote-nay Ice, Thursday morn-ing during a break fol-lowing the first round of the draft. “When you’re in the search at trade deadline and trying to go for it, we don’t have to search for that now.

“His character is sec-

ond to none. He comes from a phenomenal family... I can’t say enough about that and how important it will be for our leadership group down the road.”

Krebs, a native of Okotoks, Alta., stacked up 46 goals and 56 as-sists for 102 points in 27 games with the Rocky Mountain Raiders of the Alberta Major Bantam Hockey League (AMBHL) this past sea-son.

Sitting at home over a family breakfast with his parents and grand-parents, the well-spo-ken Krebs was elated when he heard Kazuik call his name.

“It’s a pretty surreal feeling, it still hasn’t re-ally settled in,” Krebs said over the phone Thursday. “I’ve still got

the jitters a bit. It’s just an awesome feeling, a great day for family and everyone that has sup-ported me. Now the work begins and I’m very excited to get going.

“Ever since I was very young I wanted to play in the WHL. It’s one of the main suppliers to the NHL and that’s, in the end, the ultimate goal.”

Standing 5-foot-10 and weighing in at 164 pounds, Krebs is the lat-est first-overall selection of the Kootenay Ice since Jarret Stoll was the top pick at the 1997 WHL Bantam Draft.

Krebs idolizes Jona-than Toews, the heart-and-soul captain of the Chicago Blackhawks, and tries his best to em-ulate the 200-foot play of the Chicago star. That

should be exciting news for Kootenay Ice fans as the club continues to re-build.

“I’m a fast-moving, puck-moving guy who likes to put the puck in the net,” Krebs said. “I like to use my team-mates and try to be a good leader on and off the ice.

“Whether it’s as a first-line or fourth-line player, every player has an impact on the team. I’ll be working my hard-est and playing my game to hopefully help the team find some suc-cess.”

Krebs helped the Raiders to a silver-med-al finish at the 2016 Western Canadian Ban-tam Championships and was both the AMBHL South Division Most Valuable Player and Outstanding For-ward for 2015-16. Krebs and the Raiders also won the AMBHL cham-pionship during his rookie campaign in 2014-15.

“His offensive in-stincts are off the charts,” Kazuik said. “His speed is off the charts. He isn’t far off from NHL-calibre speed, in my opinion… His speed is dynamic. When you have a team full of speed, it kills other teams and oppo-nents. It’s very tough to defend speed.”

Krebs becomes the third first-overall selec-tion and 20th first-round pick in Kootenay Ice franchise history, fol-lowing in the steps of Stoll (first overall, 1997) and defenceman Steve McCarthy (first overall, 1996). He is the highest pick since the franchise chose forward Ben Max-well with the sec-ond-overall selection at the 2003 WHL Bantam Draft.

“I don’t want to com-pare [Peyton] to any-body,” Kazuik said. “I want Peyton to become Peyton Krebs. I don’t want to compare him to anyone that’s come through our organiza-tion or other organiza-tions.

“He’s going to be-come his own player.”

According to Kazuik, the selection of Krebs

Kootenay Ice select Peyton Krebs first overall at WHL Bantam Draft

came down to the wire, as the club debated over defenceman and Cran-brook native Bowen Byram, as well as for-ward Kirby Dach.

The Saskatoon Blades traded up from

third overall, acquiring the second-overall pick from the Vancouver Gi-ants in order to select Dach (Fort Saskatche-wan Rangers). With the third-overall pick the Giants then selected

Byram (Lethbridge Golden Hawks).

The Ice finished the 2015-16 WHL season with a record of 12-53-6-1 to place last in the league. In March, the club won the WHL Ban-tam Draft Lottery, re-taining the first-overall selection and the op-portunity to dictate the start of the draft.

Expected to be a dy-namic WHL talent, Krebs isn’t eligible to join the Ice for the 2016-17 season as 15-year-old, but will likely earn a full-time opportunity when the 2017-18 cam-paign rolls around. He can play up to five games as a 15-year-old affiliate this coming sea-son.

Krebs joins the Ta-phorn twins — Kaeden and Keenan — atop the prospect chart for the rebuilding Kootenay Ice.

Keenan was the top selection of the Ice, 34th overall during the sec-ond round of the 2015 WHL Bantam Draft, while brother Kaeden was the 47th-overall pick of the Giants in 2015, before being trad-ed to Kootenay in ex-change for a sec-ond-round pick (2016).

ANNUAL GENERALMEETING

Wednesday May 18, 20167:00 p.m. at Kimberley Elks Hall

Election of Offi cers. Board positions available.Everyone welcome. Open to general public.It’s board members and volunteers that keep the team going!

“We’re looking at our 2000-age group and how [Krebs] will fit into that,” Kazuik said. “There’s no denying we have the two Taphorns. That looks like a good line, but doesn’t mean it will be a line in the fu-ture. Building with that and what we’ll do in the 2001 [age group] is going to be two groups built together for the Kootenay Ice.”

Both Taphorn twins saw action in two games as affiliates during the 2015-16 season and will be eligible to join the club on a full-time basis this fall.

The Ice did not have a first-round pick in 2015, with the team’s last first-round selection coming in the form of defenceman Griffin Mendel (11th overall, 2014) who has since committed his services to the NCAA’s University of Denver.

Jared Legien, a first-round pick of the Ice (ninth overall, 2013), posted four goals and eight points in 69 games as a rookie during the 2015-16 season. Ice de-

fenceman Troy Murray is also a former first-round pick (10th, 2012).

Krebs has an older brother with WHL bloodlines — defence-man Dakota Krebs plays for the Tri-City Ameri-cans.

Through the 2016 bantam draft, the Ice se-lected four forwards, four defencemen and two goaltenders.

“We always say you’ll be able to judge the draft class two years, three years time from now,” Kazuik said at the conclusion of the draft. “That will be the true indicator of how we did today. We feel good today as I’m sure 21 other teams feel good as well.

“Things went pretty much the way we planned it.

“We got some tre-mendous players and it’s going to be very ex-citing to watch them come in.”

Kootenay Ice select Krebs

taylor roCC aCALGARY — The

Vancouver Giants got their man, selecting Cranbrook native Bowen Byram third overall at the 27th annu-al WHL Bantam Draft, Thursday morning at Hotel Arts in Calgary.

“It’s an obvious hon-our,” Byram said Thurs-day afternoon. “It’s a great organization. I was pretty happy when I saw my name come up there.”

Byram heard his name called while sit-ting with his mother and father, a particularly special moment for the 14-year-old as he said it had been months since he had seen his mom, Stacey, while living in Lethbridge in order to play Bantam AAA.

The Giants originally held the second-overall selection, but traded down with the Saska-toon Blades before choosing the 6-foot, 163-pound defenceman at third overall.

“In the draft [class] this year, I didn’t see a guy that could carry the

puck up ice as quick as [Byram] can and who plays hard on both ends of the ice,” said Jason Ripplinger, director of player personnel for the Vancouver Giants, Thursday morning during a break following the first round of the draft. “He makes a great first pass. He’s a very smart player and he’s a player you can build around in order to win.”

The Giants sent the second-overall pick, 50th-overall pick (third round) and 147th-over-all pick (seventh round) to the Blades in ex-change for the third-overall pick, 36th-overall pick (sec-ond round), 113th over-all pick (sixth round) and a seventh-round selection in 2017.

The deal gave Van-couver four selections in the top-40 of the draft, with goaltender Trent Miner being another key pick at 20th overall.

Meanwhile, the Blades grabbed forward Kirby Dach with the sec-ond-overall selection.

“Saskatoon really

Cranbrook’s Byram selected 3rd overall by Giants

wanted the Dach kid,” Ripplinger said. “We were willing to risk it. We’re fortunate it worked out.

“When you’ve got multiple picks like we did, getting [goaltender Trent] Miner, to do that and get a player you re-ally want can make an impact on your hockey club in the future.”

Byram dominated

the Alberta Major Ban-tam Hockey League (AMBHL) in 2015-16, stacking up 22 goals and 37 assists for 59 points in 34 games played with the Lethbridge Golden Hawks, ranking him as the top-scoring bluelin-er in the AMBHL.

“It would be best if my mentality doesn’t change,” Byram said. “I’ve just got to keep

seasons playing Bantam AAA hockey across the Alberta-B.C. border.

Byram’s steady play on the back end helped the Golden Hawks to a bronze-medal finish at the 2016 Western Cana-dian Bantam AAA Championship on the heels of winning the AMBHL.

“His IQ of the game is the most important thing,” Ripplinger said. “He’s just so smart, makes those good plays and can find guys that are maybe covered, but for some reason he still gets the puck to that player.

Hockey runs in his bloodlines with father Shawn having suited up for 178 WHL regular season games split be-tween the Regina Pats (1984-85 to 1986-87) and Prince Albert Raid-ers (1986-87 to 1987-88).

“He’s going to be a team leader for us,” Rip-plinger said of Byram. “As the years go on, he’s going to be able to run our power play. We’re

looking at him as a Joe Hicketts-type of player, not comparing the two, but playing the 30 to 35 minutes a game. When you can get a guy on the ice like that playing against the best players, it gives you a good chance to win.”

The Giants are in desperate need of an elite-calibre player like Byram after finishing the 2015-16 campaign second last in the WHL with a record of 23-40-5-4.

“I just want to be a good defenceman, a good, two-way defend-er,” Byram said. “Hope-fully I’ll put up some points and keep a good plus-minus throughout the year.

“I’m sure [the Gi-ants] will be getting stronger. They had a good three or four years at the draft, especially today, they had a good draft and last year they had a real good draft. I’m really confident in the organization and the team we’ll have going ahead.”

working hard. Just be-cause I’ve been drafted, doesn’t mean I’m on the team at all. I’ve just got to keep working hard and hopefully I’ll earn myself a spot on the team.”

Standing 6-feet tall and weighing in at 163 pounds, Byram grew up in Cranbrook but has spent the previous two

Bandits set roster, begin preparations for seasonWith 11 returners & five rookies, Cranbrook Bandits look ahead to American Legion Baseball season

It took some serious deliberation, but Paul Mrazek has his men.

The head coach of the Cranbrook Bandits firmed up his roster Tuesday, setting the stage for the American Legion Baseball season, which is slated to begin Saturday, May 14 at the Wood Bat Classic in Libby, Mont.

“I feel good, it was great that we had a lot of interest,” Mrazek said Tuesday afternoon.

“We had a lot of young kids that are looking really good, they’re just a little bit young right now. They’re not ready, but they will be.

“It’s nice. I know there are some good athletes, some good baseball players coming my way. We’re doing a good job with develop-ing the younger kids right now.”

With 11 returners, Mrazek added five new-comers to his full-time roster and another four to the practice squad.

In his 10 years with the program, Mrazek has never seen such great interest and turn-out as 14 hopefuls audi-tioned in addition to the 11 returners.

“Baseball is growing in Cranbrook right now,” Mrazek said. “We’re going to have 20 kids at a Bandits prac-tice. That’s huge. I’ve never seen that.

“There’s a lot of pretty exciting stuff going on.”

WHAT’S ITS WORTHA Business Valuation Services Seminar

CBI HEALTH CENTRE - CRANBROOK28 - 11th AVE, Cranbrook, BC V1C 2P1

250.426.7097WWW.CBI.CA

After 11 years of maintaining physiotherapy services at the Kimberley Health Centre, CBI Health Centre – Cranbrook (Formerly Cranbrook Physiotherapist Corporation) has made the difficult decision to conclude our onsite services at Kimberley Health Centre.

This decision allows us to focus our rehabilitation programming out of the Cranbrook office. These changes will take effect May 1, 2016.

CBI Health Centre – Cranbrook will continue with our mission to improve the health and wellness of our communities through physiotherapy and rehabilitation services based in Cranbrook. The torch in Kimberley will be passed to Karen Cornish (Physiotherapist) who will continue to offer physiotherapy and hydrotherapy services to our shared clients through Purcell Physiotherapy at the Kimberley Health Centre.

Physiotherapists are important professional care providers for encouraging and maintaining active, healthy lifestyles for Canadians. We look forward to continuing our relationships with our Kimberley and Cranbrook clients through our office in Cranbrook.

I want to thank the Kimberley medical professional network and our past and future clients for your support of our business in Kimberley since 2005.

Sincerely,

Floyde Spencer Clinical Manager

Better health begins here

CBI Health Centre - Kimberley is Closing

belts are Brendan Bird, Jake Bromley, Kei Chlopan, Rylan D’Etch-everrey, Cedar Kemp, Cayden McCormack, Carson Meggison, Dan-iel Mercandelli, Robert Nickell, Noah Renette and Tyler Thorn.

Joining the crew as rookies are Hayden Mastel, Linden Meg-gison, Greg Rebagliati, Parker Thomson and Brandon Thorn.

The practice roster includes Brayden Far-quhar, Braiden Koran, Tanner McLean and Cameron Reid.

Putting the pieces to-gether wasn’t an easy process for Mrazek.

“The hardest thing was where are they going to play?” Mrazek said. “I’ve got guys that are interested that can play at this level, but I’ve got five excellent out-fielders right now. These guys aren’t going to take a spot there. They’re going to grow into it, but they’re not going to take a spot away from five 18- or 19-year-olds when they’re only 15 years old.

“The infield has a couple holes to fill and we’ll maybe slide some guys around, but what is opening up is also maybe not an area where these guys are going to play. I want to get them involved so they’re a part of the team and the pro-gram, because their time will come.

“The toughest part was where am I going to use them. I need extra arms for pitching. It’s a big commitment and

they have to be okay fill-ing the role of a pitcher that might get some starts, might be a mid-dle guy.”

With the hard work away from the diamond in the books, Mrazek’s focus now shifts to pre-paring his charges for opening weekend of the American Legion Base-ball season.

Set to play 46 games over the course of ap-proximately 11 weeks, the mantra early on is simple — mechanics, hard work and routine.

“We always start very strong so maybe I should continue to do more of what we do early in the year,” Mrazek said with a laugh. “The last two or three years we’ve started very strong by working on good fundamentals and mechanics.

“We’re going to go over our signals. We do want to cover first and third, bunt defense. As long as we can cover some of those basics. We know we’re not going to cover all the sit-uations in the first week.

“They should be able to make the routine plays. They’ve been playing their high school season already. As it ad-vances we’ll focus more on situational practices and situational BP [bat-ting practice], which are at game speed.”

With the big num-bers emerging from try-outs, Mrazek is getting to work on developing a Junior Bandits program, which he expects to tar-get and develop for

youngsters aged 13 to 16 years old. The goal is to have the program up and running in time for next season, in addition to the regular Bandits squad, which is aimed for kids 15 to 19.

Mrazek is also in the process of working alongside Cranbrook Minor Baseball with younger groups, aged nine to 12.

All in all, baseball is heating up in Cran-brook.

Should everything go to plan with the 2016 edition of Mrazek’s Ban-dits, that trend will con-tinue as they seek a third

consecutive appearance at the Montana State ‘B’ championship.

Pursuit of that goal begins Saturday, May 14,

in Libby, Mont., when the Bandits travel south for the Wood Bat Classic.

Home-opening ac-tion at Cranbrook’s

Confederation Park is scheduled for Saturday, May 21, when the Ban-dits host Trail for a dou-bleheader.

AleeshA KoersenTo most, Mary Poppins pro-

vides a sense of nostalgia or an image of Julie Andrews and Dick van Dyck or, at the very least, a spoon full of sugar. In their up-coming production of Mary Pop-pins, Mount Baker Secondary School’s Wild Theatre brings their own magic to the classic story.

Music and theatre are huge parts of the high school’s culture, so it’s no surprise that they were able to find over 30 talented and dedicated young actors to put on a show.

“The other thing that might be interesting to point out is that many of our actors have never acted before,” said Mary Hamil-ton, director and drama teacher, over the phone Wednesday night.

While most of the cast does not have a lot of acting experience, there’s no denying that they’ve pulled off something great. Lively dance numbers and heart-filled moments promise to keep the au-dience engaged.

Rehearsals started in January three times a week, at three hours each. It was only on Monday that the cast started to rehearse on stage. In a few days’ time, they have adapted to the stage and started to soak up the spotlight.

It takes much more than a great cast to successfully pull off a play, especially a musical. From chore-ography to music to costumes to set designs, you can tell that un-measurable amount of effort has been put into making this perfor-mance great. Siona Jackson cho-

reographed the musical, which is abundant in impressive dance se-quences including aerial moves. A community band headed by music director Caitlin Matwey serves as the pit band, adding to the live music experience. Penny Medig designed the fun and co-lourful costumes seen throughout the play. With some help, MBSS vice principal, Dave Hill, designed the sets. His craftsmanship shines at its brightest in a kitchen scene where dishes and shelves seem to move on their own.

You can go see the all the fun for yourself from May 5-8 at the Key City Theatre. Shows start at 7:30 May 5-7 and at 2:30 on May 8. General admission is $18.

Tre vor Cr awleyUsually, a library is a

place where all sorts of the written literature can be checked out and enjoyed in the quiet moments of the day.

However, there is a new initiative at the Cranbrook Public Li-brary where people can take some knowledge and apply it directly —

specifically to their gar-dens.

The library, in part-nership with the Cran-brook Garden Club, has started up a seed library — a bank of seeds that members of both the li-brary and the garden club can sign out and plant in their gardens. Seeds from those plants can then be harvested at

the end of the season and donated back to the seed library.

Just a small sampling of those seeds include Calendula, Canna Lilly, double pink poppies, Wild PEI Lupins, Purple Sweet Peas, Pink Lavat-era and Baptista false indigo.

The seed library is borrowed from libraries

Garden Club, Library join up for seed bank

in other areas, but the idea isn’t new.

“For libraries, so often libraries with books, and the fact is that you hear a lot of talk these days about the sharing economy,” said Ursula Brigl, the chief librarian with the Cran-brook Public Library. “Well, we’ve been doing that since before it was a catchphrase.

“Different types of li-braries, we’ve always had collections of differ-ent types of things, as the concept of the shar-ing economy has really developed and grown, we’ve looked at how li-braries can do what they’ve always been doing in new and inter-esting ways.”

Libraries in Creston and Grand Forks have done something simi-lar; Grand Forks’ library has mason jars with seeds in them and peo-ple could help them-selves to the seeds.

In a nod back to the days of yore before Goo-gle searches and the In-ternet, the seeds are stored in an old in-dex-card catalogue.

“We have a variety of seeds in there that peo-ple harvest from their gardens in the fall and donate,” said Linda Mu-raro, the president of the Cranbrook Garden Club.

Adds Brigl: “I guess it’s a good way for peo-ple who otherwise might be hesitant of try-

ing out some plants to experiment with and because they’re from gardens in this area, you know they’re actually going to grow here.”

The idea of lending out more than just books isn’t new either, as the library has a cake-pan collection where people can sign out a particular baking pan and return when fin-ished when their baking is done.

Brigl also made mention of a tool-lend-ing library that was set up after wildfires tore through California, that residents used to repair and rebuild their homes.

“In other libraries, they’ve tried it where

they have a tool-lending library and that actually started down in Califor-nia after the fires went through there,” Brigl said.

“There were people who hadn’t had a need for power tools in their lives that needed to do some repairs to their house and they didn’t want to buy a power tool just for a one-time thing, so they set up a tool-lending library.”

The Cranbrook Gar-den Club is busy getting going for the spring sea-son with projects throughout the com-munity leading up to their Open Garden Day Tour on Sunday, July 10th.

Tre vor Cr awleyCranbrook got a

taste of what Syrian cul-ture is like with a monthly themed meet-ing last Friday night courtesy of the Cran-brook Multicultural So-ciety.

Every month, the so-ciety gathers to cele-brate a particular nation or culture and Syria was chosen for April be-cause of it’s indepen-dence day on April 17, 1946, which marks the day the last occupying French soldier evacuat-ed the country.

“There are two fami-lies right now in Cran-brook and we invited them and their spon-sors and sponsor groups and volunteers,” said Coco Seitz, with the Cranbrook Multicultur-al Society. “...We dedi-cated the event to Syri-an culture so we made displays with informa-tion about Syria.”

The evening featured

some food and snacks native to Syria as well as some fashions for the ladies at the Connect Church Gravity space.

In February, the So-ciety celebrated Chi-nese New Year, while March was themed around St. Patricks Day and Ireland. May will showcase Mexican cul-ture because of Cinco de Mayo, while June will focus on The Philip-pines.

The Cranbrook Mul-ticultural Society will use July and August and ramp up their prepara-tions for the annual Multicultural Festival on Saturday, August 20, at Rotary Park.

If anyone is interest-ed in having a display and/or showcasing their culture at the Mul-ticultural Festival, con-tact Coco Seitz at 250-5801-0678 or search ‘Cranbrook Multicultur-al Society’ for their Facebook page.

Local multicultural society showcasing cultures monthly

The Cranbrook Multicultural Society featured Syria as part of a monthly gathering where a nationality or culture is showcased at an event last week in the Connect Church Gravity space. The Society is gearing up for their annual Multicultural Festival, which will be held at Rotary Park on Saturday, August 20, 2016.

Trevor CrawleyA small fire at the fort

Steele transfer station was quickly contained on Tuesday by a B.C. Wildfire crew and RDEK staff.

“We had a grass fire on our transfer station property yesterday af-ternoon when a con-trolled burn of a small brush pile got away,” says RDEK Solid Waste Superintendent Jim Penson. “Thanks to the swift action of a BC Wildfire Service crew, staff, contractors and a neighbour we were able to extinguish the fire very quickly and pre-vent the situation from becoming more seri-ous.”

The blaze burned 1.5 hectares and was con-tained within three hours by two B.C. Wild-fire Service personnel, RDEK staff, a neighbour and a water tender.

The incident is a stark reminder that wildfire season has ar-rived in the East Koote-nay, indeed across the Southern Interior.

The City of Cran-brook is reminding resi-dents that with proper c o m m u n i t y - w i d e preparation, popula-tions and infrastructure can withstand the dev-astating effects of a wildfire, reducing loss of life and property. That preparation depends on strong collaboration be-tween agencies and the public at the provincial and local levels.

“Many people move to the wild land urban interface, brining with them the same fire pro-tection expectations they had when living in urban or other subur-ban communities,” says Wayne Price, the Direc-tor of Fire and Emergen-cy Services in Cran-brook. “The responsibil-ity of the public is to understand and prepare

Small fire contained near Fort Steele, Cranbrook reminds residents to be prepared

for the risk of wild land fire. Homes that do not reflect the risk pose not only a threat to the resi-dents themselves, but neighbouring homes and emergency services as well.”

Important wild land fire preparedness con-cepts concepts include:

• Defensible space — The required space be-tween a building struc-ture and wildland area that surrounds it, creat-ing a buffer between a home and radiant heat or flames.

• The Ember Issue — Windblown embers are a cause of concern in the wildland urban inter-face because most struc-tures are not destroyed by direct flames, but rather from embers. Em-bers may precede the fire front, carried by winds that distribute burning brands or em-bers over long distances, which can ignite fuels on structures or property.

• Hardening your home — A conceptual plan that looks to protect a home through it’s ac-

tual composition of roofs, eaves, vents, decks and windows.

• Home ignition zone — Another conceptual plan that places the home in the context of hits surroundings. In a high hazard area, this zone can extend up to 20 feet from a home and includes a preparation focus on the home and surrounding vegetation.

“There are various public education tools focusing on wild land fire preparedness from which individuals and homeowners can learn,” Price said. “At the pro-vincial level, these in-clude the FireSmart Communities program. The program focuses on teaching residents how to adapt to living with wild land fire and en-courages neighbours to jointly collaborate in a community-wide effort before a fire threat to prevent the loss of life and property.”

For more informa-tion on the FireSmart Program, visit: http://bcwildfire.ca/preven-

tion/firesmart.htmThe Southeast Fire

Centre warns that fire danger rating in the Cranbrook area are moderate, with pockets of high.

“For the Cranbrook area, it looks like the danger rating is moder-ate with a couple pock-ets of high,” said Karlie Shaughnessey, a Fire In-formation Officer with the SFC. “I know that we are supposed to get some light precipitation this evening and into to-morrow, so that will re-duce the risk, but it looks like we’re supposed to get some warmer tem-peratures coming for the weekend, so that will in-crease the risk.”

Shaughnessey says that there have been 18 fires to date in the SFC that has burned 85 hect-ares — all save one being person-caused.

Activity is higher than normal, as the five year average for this time of year is nine fires that burns 44 hectares, she added.

A small fire at the fort Steele transfer station was quickly contained on Tuesday by a B.C. Wildfire crew and RDEK staff.

presents...ARIES (March 21-April 19) You are likely to gain a new be-ginning financially. Your sense of what needs to be done should be verified with others who un-derstand more about fiscal mat-ters than you do. You will have the opportunity to clear the air with an associate. Tonight: Lots of chatter and sharing.TAURUS (April 20-May 20)The New Moon in your sign heralds a peaking of your skills, intuition and intellect. Let’s toss in some charm as well. If you are determined to have anoth-er shot at a relationship or a matter involving someone at a distance, no one will stop you. Tonight: Be spontaneous.GEMINI (May 21-June 20)Know when to back off and let others handle a situation. You have been under increasing pressure as of late. You will need to step back a bit in order to gain some perspective. You don’t need to be the only per-son who takes care of things.

Tonight: Not to be found.CANCER (June 21-July 22) One-on-one relating takes you down a new path. Emphasize what you want rather than what you think will appeal to a certain friend or group of friends. You’ll hear news that might surprise you and change your opinion about a key person. Tonight: Christen the weekend well.LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You might be in the role of lead-er of the gang. Consider revising your attitude and approach, just for today. Know that your ability to squeeze a lot of work into a small amount of time is not a reflection about the quality of your work. Tonight: As usual, in the limelight!VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You could be in a situation where you see a personal matter a lot differently from how the majority of people see it. Per-haps in this case the roles have been reversed; suddenly you could have a revelation of what it means to be the other party. Tonight: Try something new.LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Success greets you once more, as long as you can avoid getting caught in a serious discussion. This talk needs to have a per-sonal, intimate tone. As a result, the other party will be more responsive, even if the discus-sion involves a business matter. Tonight: Be a duo.SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)Defer to others who are anxious to take the lead. The worst that could happen is that they’ll flop and then learn from the experi-ence. Your compliant response will show that you are confident in the outcome. You know you can handle anything. Tonight: Sort through offers.SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might want to understand what is motivating someone else. You can watch what this person does, but you might not understand how he or she got there, or why. Making a resolu-tion involving a habit or a health matter today probably will work. Tonight: Try being tame!CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)Your ingenuity is endless and creates many options. Some-

times people get confused when you toss out several dif-ferent ideas that get you to the same spot. They might wonder whether you want feedback or are simply showing off. Tonight: Paint the town red.AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) If you don’t want to go out, make that OK. You’ll need to be the tortoise and give up the role of the hare. You run around so much that you rarely have time to relax and recharge your batteries. The time has come to do just that. Tonight: Make sure you want to follow through.PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You have a way with words. You tend to add a lot of flourishes to what you say, even if only in your mind. Others find you to be unusually colorful in your self-expression right now. Don’t be surprised when they come to you looking for creative ideas. Tonight: All smiles.BORN TODAY Actor George Clooney (1961), singer/songwriter Bob Seger (1945), former British Prime Minister Tony Blair (1953)

Dear Annie: I am 15 years old and I love your column. Here’s my problem: Ever since I was a little girl, I had one dream -- to be-come an astronaut. I would gaze at the stars for hours each night, and I learned every-thing I could from books. However, my parents have always drilled into me that I was to become a doctor or lawyer. They are very strict, and I always have obeyed them. I believe they do this for my benefit. My parents grew up poor. They want me to make heaps of money so I will want for nothing. Whenever I bring up the topic of becom-ing an astronaut, they quickly shut it down, because they don’t believe astronauts earn enough. My parents will never support me in this. I have only one path, already drawn, complete with college courses and job open-ings. My parents see their friends’ children becoming lawyers, surgeons or specialists, and they expect me to do the same. Even my teachers and friends give me doubtful looks when I tell them what I want to do. But let’s say that I cut ties with my parents and take college classes in physics and as-tronomy and don’t get into NASA. Medicine is a solid field. You can find jobs anywhere. Shoot for the stars? Very funny. Do I live for myself or my parents? -- Trapped in the Grave of a Dream Dear Trapped: Dreams are great, but they do not always translate to reality, as you know. According to NASA, the competition to be an astronaut is, well, astronomical -- there are an average of 4,000 applicants for 20 openings every two years. You’d need a degree in engineering, science or mathe-matics, and then three years of related expe-rience. Astronaut salaries are solid, but will not make you wealthy. But we don’t want you to give up your dream if you are that committed to it. The good news is, you don’t have to decide today. In college, a pre-med program will re-quire many of the same science classes that you would need to be an astronaut. This will give you an opportunity to see how well you do in those subjects, and your parents will have no objections.

Dear Annie: My husband died recent-ly from complications due to Parkinson’s disease. He, too, suffered the indignities of incontinence, and initially refused adult di-apers, even though he needed them. I solved the problem by asking the nursing staff not to use the “D” word. After all, infants wear diapers and I did not want to infantilize my husband. I asked them to use the word “undergarments” to preserve the patient’s dignity. I am happy to report that the entire staff eliminated the word “diaper” around my husband, and probably around all the oth-er residents of the nursing home, as well. Hopefully, they understood that one must give dignity and respect to everyone, no mat-ter the circumstances. -- Advocating for My Husband Dear Advocate: Sometimes the solutions to such problems are simple.

Wednesday’s answer

Mercury makes rare transit of sunMarcia DunnAssociated Press

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - Earthlings are in for a treat Mon-day as Mercury makes a relatively rare transit of the sun.

The solar system’s smallest, in-nermost planet will resemble a black round dot as it passes in front of our big, bright star. The last time Mercury crossed directly be-tween the Earth and sun was in 2006, and it won’t happen again until 2019 - and then, until 2032. NASA says the event occurs only about 13 times a century.

Louis Mayo, program manager at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, considers it “a big deal.”

“Astronomers get excited when

any two things come close to each other in the heavens,” Mayo said in a statement.

The eastern U.S. and Canada will see the entire 7 1/2-hour tran-sit, as will most of South America, western Europe and westernmost Africa. In the western portion of North America, stargazers can join in midway, at sunrise, while those in eastern Europe, central Asia, the Middle East and most of Africa will have to call it quits early when the sun goes down. Austra-lia will have to sit this one out alto-gether.

Forget eclipse glasses. At barely 3,000 miles across, Mercury would be too small to spot. You’ll need binoculars or telescopes equipped with proper solar filters to protect

your eyes.Look for Mercury south of the

sun’s equator. The planet might appear as though it’s hardly mov-ing, but in reality it will be zoom-ing past the sun at nearly 106,000 mph.

Three spacecraft will observe the transit, so if you can’t catch it with your own eyes, check out the space agency online . NASA prom-ises images close to real time from its Solar Dynamic Observatory.

Astronomers have been ob-serving Mercury transits since the 1600s. Monday’s occurrence will allow scientists to fine-tune in-struments aboard solar observa-tories like SDO and learn even more about the sun.

associateD PressNEW ORLEANS - A

110-year-old Louisiana man who enlisted in the army during World War II to serve his country has died.

Local television sta-tion KPLC-TV in Lake Charles reported that Frank Levingston died Tuesday.

Multiple media out-

lets described him as the country’s oldest World War II veteran but that could not be independently con-firmed.

Levingston was born Nov. 13, 1905 and grew up in northern Louisiana.

ABC News reported that he enlisted in the army on Oct. 6, 1942,

less than a year after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and launched the U.S. into the war raging in Eu-rope and the Pacific.

“He felt the obliga-tion to give to the country whatever he possibly could, and he was very excited about it,” his nephew Lee Levingston told ABC

News. “He gave it his very best.”

In December, Lev-ingston was part of a group of veterans who travelled to Washing-ton, D.C., for a ceremo-ny marking the Dec. 7, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor.

Ahead of the trip, Levingston was hon-oured at a ceremony.

Premier Christy Clark’s $50,000-a-year “leader’s allowance” from the B.C. Liberal Party does not breach B.C. law, Conflict of In-terest Commissioner Paul Fraser has ruled.

Fraser’s decision was released late Wednes-day in response to a complaint filed by NDP MLA David Eby, who accused Clark of being paid out of proceeds from “exclusive” fund-

raising events where people paid up to $10,000 to meet with her.

“There may be cir-cumstances where re-ceiving a political dona-tion places a Member [of the Legislative As-sembly] in a conflict or apparent conflict of in-terest situation,” Fraser wrote. “However, the are generally limited to situ-ations where a candi-date receives a personal campaign contribution and due to a variety of

other factors, is in a po-sition to ‘return a favour’ to the person who made the donation.”

Fraser added that the Members’ Conflict of In-terest Act “is not a moral code and I am not an arbiter of what may be political morality in the campaign finance con-text.”

Clark has said she in-herited the allowance when she became B.C. Liberal leader in 2011, and it was instituted by the party when former premier Gordon Camp-bell became opposition leader in 1993. The party says Clark’s allowance is $50,000 for this year and last year, up from $45,000 a year in 2013 and 2014.

The NDP has pressed the B.C. Liberal govern-ment to ban corporate and union donations and cap personal dona-tions, as has been done at the federal level. In the legislature this week, the opposition high-lighted donations from mining and oil execu-tive N. Murray Edwards and associated compa-nies totalling more than $800,000.

NDP leader John Horgan has also partici-pated in private recep-tions with donors who pay extra. He says his leader’s allowance has been about $5,000, mainly to provide him with clothing.

Clark’s party pay OK, commissioner says

For the townsmanWhether you enjoy

lawn bowling or golf, take to the backcountry on foot, skis or bike, or prefer to hit a tennis ball or pickle ball, dozens of expansions, improve-ments and new devel-opments to the spaces that keep you moving are on their way. Thanks to Columbia Basin Trust’s Recreation Infra-structure Grants, 42 projects around the re-gion are getting over $3.5 million in support.

The Trust an-nounced the $9-million, three-year program in January 2016. It pro-vides financial support to help communities and groups build new recreation infrastruc-ture or upgrade existing recreation infrastruc-ture.

“We’re pleased to provide grants to such a wide range of projects that will help people stay fit and enjoy where we live,” said Neil Muth, Columbia Basin Trust President and Chief Ex-ecutive Officer. “Sup-porting residents to lead active, healthy lifestyles is one of our strategic

priorities, and develop-ing the amenities that help them do so is an important step.”

One of the recipients is the Rotary Club of Kimberley. It will be de-veloping the Kimberley Splash Park to provide an aquatic playground for children of all ages and abilities.

“The splash park will offer a safe, inclusive, low-maintenance and free option for residents and tourists to cool off at on hot summer days,” said Sandra Roberts, President. “Children will be able to strength-en their gross motor skills, develop their hand/eye coordination, enjoy water play and learn social skills. Plus we will use low-flow nozzles and have select-ed each feature with water conservation in mind.”

Other successful Kimberley and Cran-brook projects include:
