By Tom Fletcher, Black PressEducation ministry staff have searched in

vain since this summer to locate a backup hard drive containing B.C. and Yukon student information from 1986 to 2009.

The computer memory disk contains 3.4 million public school education records, including names, postal codes, grades and personal education numbers.

Citizens’ Services Minister Amrik Virk said Tuesday there is no evidence the information has been taken or misused. After a lengthy physical search of a secure warehouse in Victoria turned up nothing, ministry electron-ic records continue to be searched to see if the hard drive was moved or destroyed.

Virk said there were two unencrypted back-up hard drives created in 2011, contrary to ministry information and privacy rules. Information and Privacy Commissioner Elizabeth Denham has been notified and is investigating.

“There’s no doubt that a mistake was made, first in how the hard drive was created, and secondly, how it was stored,” Virk said. “This should not have happened.”

The drive also more than 9,000 personal education numbers for children in govern-

ment care, connected to information such as health and behaviour issues. This sensitive personal information could be connected to names by comparing the personal education numbers to names through the larger data file.

NDP education critic Rob Fleming said Virk is coming forward after several weeks because he doesn’t believe the missing hard drive will be found.

“For government to admit this has hap-pened is not good enough,” Fleming said. “They have to tell us how and why it hap-pened, and the minister specifically has to say why he failed to do his job.”

The government has set up a phone contact centre through Service BC for specific inqui-ries about the data breach. The centre is open 7:30 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday to Friday, and call-ers should be prepared to say when they attended public or post-secondary schools in B.C.

In Victoria, call 250-387-6121. In Metro Vancouver, 604-660-2421. Elsewhere in B.C. call 1-800-663-7867.

Details of the information on the missing drive can be viewed online at http://bit.ly/1YzSt9p

B.C. government liquor stores are collecting donations to help the Red Cross in its efforts to assist refugees fleeing four years of civil war and recent terrorist invasion.

Customers are asked to donate $2, $5 or mul-tiples of that amount. Red Cross is providing emergency supplies to Syrian refugees including food, water, clothing, temporary shelter and hygiene items.

The federal government has established a $100 million fund to match donations from indi-vidual Canadians and registered charities, from now to the end of 2015. The B.C. government has also established a $1 million fund to help Syrian refugees settling in B.C.

The previous donation drive by BC Liquor Stores collected $102,000 for assistance to peo-ple affected by wildfires in the Rock Creek and Oliver areas.

Friday, September 25, 2015 Lakeshore News A3 www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

By Tom Fletcher, Black PressThe three contenders for the prime

minister’s office clashed in their second debate Thursday evening in Calgary, where slumping oil prices and industry layoffs framed a discussion on the econ-omy.

NDP leader Tom Mulcair accused Conservative Stephen Harper of having a “rip and ship approach” to natural resource development, adding that Harper “put all of his eggs in one bas-ket, and then dropped the basket.”

Harper said it is “sim-ply false” that the oil industry’s woes represent the entire economy, and overall it continues to perform well and produce more tax revenue despite a 40 per cent reduction in small business taxes and other tax cuts.

Liberal leader Justin Trudeau said his plan also includes reduction in small business taxes, and he emphasized he is the only leader willing to raise personal income taxes on the wealthiest one per cent of income earners, to finance a cut for the middle class.

Moderated by David Walmsley, editor of The Globe and Mail, the debate drew out differences between the three estab-lished party leaders on several topics.

Greenhouse gases:• Mulcair favours a cap-and-trade

system, but he avoided questions about what his system would cost the econo-my or consumers. The NDP will

“enforce overarching sustainable devel-opment legislation,” he said.

• Trudeau defended his position that each province should address emissions in its own way. He said Mulcair wants to impose a national bureaucracy, including on B.C., which Trudeau called a world leader in use of carbon tax.

• Harper said carbon taxes are about revenues to government, not the envi-

ronment. He said under his 10-year administration, Canada has seen a decline in emissions while the economy grew, adding that his government invests $1 billion a year in alternative energy.

Infrastructure:• Trudeau defended his plan to run

three deficits of up to $10 billion to finance roads and other infrastructure, with interest rates at a low ebb and Canada’s debt relative to the size of the economy declining.

• Mulcair called Trudeau’s plan “reck-less and uncosted,” while the NDP calls for steady investment over 20 years.

• Harper said over 10 years, his gov-ernment has spent 15 times what the previous Liberal government spent on infrastructure. That includes record deficits for public works projects in the wake of the 2009 economic crisis.

Taxation:• Harper said the other parties prom-

ise tax relief for small businesses, but their plans to increase Canada Pension

Plan and Employment Insurance premiums amount to a payroll tax 10 times as big as their small business tax cuts.

• Mulcair said he will raise income tax from 15 to 17 per cent for large corporations, but he believes individuals are paying their fair share now. Mulcair reminded viewers that Trudeau has supported Conservative budgets, and his first vote in Parliament was to sup-

port Harper’s tax “giveaway” to big business.

• Trudeau emphasized that his is the only plan that increases taxes for bank executives and other wealthy individu-als as well as on banks, while reducing income tax on the middle class.

Green Party MP Elizabeth May wasn’t invited to the Globe debate, but chipped in with videos on her Twitter account. In one, May noted that there was no discussion of “investor state agreements” such as one with China that have intruded on Canada’s sover-eignty.

oats, especially oat bran, as cereal helps to lower cholesterol. Oats are therefore a heart-healthy cereal.

Oats have silicic acid esters which are good for the skin. Many people apply oats during bathing to soothe dry skin, treat psoriasis, inflam-mation, itchiness, eczema and insect bites. Oats are also used in Aveeno products such as body lotions, for the benefits to the skin. These lotions are safe for adults as well as children.

When the oat tops are harvested in their milky stage, they are known as milky oats. Milky oats have additional health benefits. They have anti-anxiety and energizing effects. Oat straw is the stem of the oat that is known to have calming effects, so is helpful for people dealing with stress and fatigue.

Herbalists often add oat straw in the formulas to treat erectile dysfunction, depression, and in the treatment of certain withdrawal symptoms from addictions like nicotine, valium, and alco-hol. Herbalists also consider oat straw to be a good nervine tonic (for the nervous system).

It’s best to consult a health care practitioner to understand what type of oats you need and for which health conditions. People with gluten allergies are cautioned against the consumption of oats.

Oats have many more health benefits. Cold weather is rolling in, and oats in a warm porridge can be a good food to start your day.

Stretch for health

COURTESY OF HARBOURFRONT FAMILY CHIROPRACTIC

by Dr. Warren Gage

familychiropractic

When it comes to improving your health, nearly every person understands the impor-tance of regular exercise, a healthy diet, stress management, and striving for sufficient rest and sleep. However, an important and often overlooked activity that also benefits your health is regular stretching.

When you observe a person’s “regular” weekly routine, it soon becomes evident that most people are creatures of habit when it comes to their physical activity. Whether it is one’s occupation or leisure time, most people put their body through fairly repetitive and usually quite limited ranges of motion. And the worst offender for this limited movement is from excessive sitting.

Incorporating regular stretching into your daily routine will have a lasting benefit to your overall health and wellness. When muscles, joints, and ligaments are regularly moved through their full range of motion (stretched) they experience a number of benefits. In addi-tion to increasing overall mobility and adapt-ability, regular stretching also improves circu-lation to deliver increased amounts of oxygen and nutrition to tissues. Regular stretching has also been found to reduce stress; a benefit every person needs today.

In order to achieve the greatest benefits from a stretching routine, a few simple practices should be followed. First, think of this exercise as a journey, not a destination. If you have never stretched before, you cannot expect to be a yoga master by next week. Understand that in order to stretch and lengthen tissues and joints, it must be a gradual process. Stretching too aggressively can result in sprains and strains, which will put a hold on your self-help efforts. It should also be noted that stretching is not just a physical activity. Focussing your mind and calming your breath while visualiz-ing the lengthening of the muscle being stretched will increase your success, while at the same time greatly reduce stress.

If you are not currently scheduling a few minutes a day to stretch, then now is the time to begin. If you already regularly stretch on your own at home, or have discovered the ben-efits of regular yoga or pilates, congratulations and keep it up! Finally, if you are wondering if your old bones are up to the task of stretching or are concerned about injuring yourself, I would also recommend a chiropractic assess-ment and spinal x-rays to know if there are any activities that you should avoid and which areas of the body need more attention. Regular chiropractic adjustments will also greatly improve your range of motion to make a stretching program easier and more effective.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper sought to shore up Conservative support among older voters by promising a new tax break for single and widowed seniors if his government is re-elect-ed.

The $2,000 tax credit would translate into up to $300 a year in reduced income tax for nearly 1.6 million sin-gle seniors who have private pension income beyond CPP and OAP.

Eligible seniors could combine it with the existing $2,000 pension income tax credit for a combined benefit of up to $600 a year.

“It is an affordable commitment,” Harper said Tuesday in North Vancouver, noting it will be phased in over

four years at an eventu-al annual cost of nearly $400 million. “It helps the seniors who need it most.”

Both the NDP and Liberals have promised to increase the Guaranteed Income Supplement for lower income seniors.

The Liberals say their proposed immedi-ate 10 per cent hike to GIS payments would add up to an extra $920 a year for a low-in-come senior.

The Conservatives have sought to portray Liberal and NDP prom-ises as unaffordable and therefore unreli-able.

The Liberals and NDP have also pledged to scrap the Conservatives’ 2012 decision to make many future seniors wait an extra two years until age 67 before becom-

ing eligible for OAP and GIS. That change is to be phased in start-ing in 2023.

Both Opposition par-ties aim to expand CPP, drawing criticism from Harper that their approaches amount to hefty payroll tax hikes.

The NDP and Liberals both would unwind another Harper government change they say benefits only the wealthy – the increased $10,000 con-tribution limit for Tax Free Savings Accounts.

But both parties say they would preserve income splitting for seniors.

Earlier in the week, NDP leader Tom Mulcair pledged to bol-ster health care trans-fers to the provinces with an extra $1.8 bil-lion.

In last week’s issue of Blain’s Biz it was erro-neously reported that the salmon run as already having started. The full run starts at the begin-ning of October and it is the early run is going on now at Scotch Creek. The interpretive centre is open up at Roderick Haig-Brown Provincial Park, Fridays through Tuesdays, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

And don’t miss the SalmonFest! Participating restaurants in downtown Salmon Arm will have signature salmon dishes. For more details on SalmonFest, contact Downtown Salmon Arm at 250-832-5440.

LAURIE’S DUE DATE IS NEAR, SHE’S STILL WORKINGLaurie Ljubojevic is due to have a baby on October 8,

but she is still teaching yoga classes in Salmon Arm and Sicamous. What makes her unique is she’s in mid-life and still teaching yoga. She wrote: “Most yoga teachers are in their twenties and have more energy than me, however, by the grace of God I’m still able to manage teaching almost right up to my due date!” Like some mothers who are teaching in Sicamous, Laurie will probably bring her baby to class and keep teaching with hardly a break. If you see Ray Doerksen with a smile, it’s because he is the daddy.

I BROUGHT MY CAR HOME MONDAY EVENINGAfter four weeks in Calgary, the 2008 SmartCar is back

in my yard where it belongs. On Sunday I took the night Greyhound bus to Calgary, which I wouldn’t do again at my age. I got there are 4:40 a.m.! The Mercedes Benz shuttle took me to the dealership in SE Calgary, and before too long I was on my way home to Salmon Arm. After a few stops for naps, at book stores with the Seymour Arm book, and a usual visit with management at Three Valley Gap, I was home at dusk. With a new part from Germany and another from Calgary, the car works beautifully!

Thank you to Budget for the car rental the first week, to the transit drivers who provided efficient rides on their schedules, to Salmon Arm Taxi, and to my friends. I will always remember you.

A CONNECTION BETWEEN SUGAR INTAKE & CANCER RISK

Dr. Adam McLeod, a naturopath in Vancouver who is known as Dreamhealer, tells patients who are trying to fight cancer or prevent its recurrance, to reduce sugar intake. Cancer cells respond very rapidly to insulin and they will always be more effective at grabbing sugar from the blood stream and utilizing it as an energy source. Cancer cells will always grab the sugar before normal cells due to this fundamental shift in their metab-olism. From www.hans.org e-newsletter.

BUTTER IS OK, BUT MARGARINE MIGHT KILL YOUA McMaster University professor found that trans fats

found in processed food such as margarine, raise the risk of death by 34 per cent in less than a decade. An article in The Telegraph, Aug. 12, states trans-fats are mainly produced industrially from plant oils for use in marga-rine, snack foods and packaged goods.

The British Medical Journal published research that shows death rates from heart disease have fallen in the UK by about 55 per cent since 1997 despite the rise in obesity. This may be due to fewer trans fats and more omega-3 fatty acids.

Looking back through history:SALMON ARM AMALGAMATED ON SEPT. 1, 1970

For the first time in 58 years, Salmon Arm residents were citizens of one single community, stated a front-page article in one of the local papers. The one square mile had been formed in 1912 when the City of Salmon Arm broke away from the 1905 Salmon Arm Municipality, and the two Salmon Arms were one again. The downtown wanted water, sidewalks, street lights, etc., which the outlying agricultural areas did not choose to support.

Unlike today (1970), the article stated the Municipal Act did not make it possible for benefitting area to pay for their own improvements. “If the city area was to acquire the ser-vices it needed, it could only do so by withdrawing from the municipality.”

IT TOOK THREE VOTES FOR THE AMALGAMATIONSerious talk of reuniting the city and the municipality of

Salmon Arm first began in 1962, according to the article. It resulted in a number of studies, meetings and proposals. “These culminated in amalgamation votes in 1965 and 1967, which narrowly failed to achieve the required 60 per cent approval; and in the successful June 1970 vote.

“Municipal officials are optimistic that unity will prove to the overall benefit of the community, simplify many of the problems which face any growing municipality, and open the door to a type of orderly development and planning which Salmon Arm has never known in its 58 years of divi-sion.”SALMON ARM’S INTERIM COUNCIL MET SEPT. 14, 1970

The interim council, including all sitting members of both the former village and district councils, met on Sept. 14. The Sept. 2, 1970 newspaper article stated: “The 11-member body will be headed by mayor Martin Budziak of the old district, while former village mayor Victor Nancollas will serve as his deputy. A new council of six aldermen and a mayor will be elected in December and will take office on the first Monday following Jan. 1, 1971.

“Unity of the two previous communities was approved by residents of both by a margin of 1,200 to 573 in a referendum held June 20.”

Letters to the EditorIn the Sept. 18, 2015 edition of the Lakeshore News,

Kalene Bourque wrote about a truck driver who blew a red light. First, I am sorry that she had to go through that experience. I am thankful that it was a near-miss inci-dent. I would ask that she not judge too harshly – truck drivers are not perfect, nor are car drivers. I can not speak to this issue directly as I was not there. I know that the vast majority of professional drivers are extremely mind-

ful of safety on the road. I also know that all collisions are the result of one or more of four reasons:

1. lack of courtesy, 2. lack of patience, 3. lack of atten-tion, and 4. mechanical failure.

My own driving record is very good and I work hard to keep it that way.

David Lenzi, professional driver, Edmonton

Don’t judge poor driving too harshly

The MSP (Medical Services Plan) “over-pay-ments” are beginning to flood into the Shuswap! A lady called our office a couple weeks back and told us she had read our article last spring and had just received a cheque for over $5,000. A gentleman stopped by the office and told us he had received over $4,500 back from MSP.

Those are just a couple of the stories we’ve heard. I’m sure there are a lot more!

Remember, if your combined family income has dropped for any reason (retirement/loss of a job); be sure to look into whether you are enti-tled to MSP premium assistance. There are a couple different things that go into the formula, but in general if your combined family income is less than $40,000 you may qualify and should look into it.

Another way we can drag some money out of Victoria and back to the Shuswap is the BC Training and Education Savings Grant or BCTESG. We reminded you about it in an arti-cle this past March and alas; it is finally here.

The BCTESG is the one-time provincial gov-ernment grant available to BC residents who have an RESP (Registered Education Savings Plan). The grant is $1,200 and is for children born after January 1, 2007. So if you are like me and your last child was born in 2006; tough luck!

The BCTESG was announced a couple years ago and they’ve finally worked out the adminis-trative kinks. So as of August 15th it is now available.

You have to apply for the grant before the child’s 9th birthday. However, if the child was born in 2007, 2008 or 2009 there are some extensions in place due to delay of rolling out the program.

Either way, if you have children born 2007 or later you need to look into this program. It’s “free” money that can be used for your child’s education.

So there you have it; once again Mall Arkey is leading the charge to bring tax dollars back into your wallets. A simple pat on the back is fine, but we do like chocolates!

Just to set the record straight, the Liberal Party is not cancelling income-splitting for pensioners, as is alleged in a September 18 letter to the editor written by Ron Dash. Voters who do not take the time to verify for themselves what they read or hear second-hand are at risk of supporting a can-didate or party that does not represent their choices in the upcoming election. The best way to address any policy concern is to go directly to the party, either by contacting your local candi-date’s campaign office or visit the party website.

Black PressB.C.’s minimum wage has risen 20 cents to

$10.45 an hour, the first annual increase since the the provincial government tied it to the B.C. con-sumer price index.

It’s the first increase since 2012, when the wage was increased to $10.25. For restaurant and pub servers, the minimum wage rises from $9 to $9.20. Jobs Minister Shirley Bond has said the discount from the general minimum wage will remain at $1.25 to account for income earned in tips.

NDP labour critic Shane Simpson called the increase “dismal” and “paltry.” B.C. Federation of Labour president Irene Lanzinger said by the end of 2015, B.C. will have the second lowest mini-mum wage in Canada.

“Seattle will reach $15 an hour by 2017, Alberta by 2018,” Lanzinger said. “B.C.’s minimum wage will reach $15 per hour by 2034.”

Brian Butcher still has his badge, now faded with time, that reads: 5 125 Butcher B.D. When he was three years old, it was pinned on his clothes with a safety pin when he, along with his parents, were interned by the Japanese in a prison camp in China in 1942.

“Our family was British and therefore non-combatant enemies of Japan. We were interned for three years,” says Brian. Life in the camp formed his earli-est memories.

“There was very little food, mostly stew, or soup or bread. I remember see-ing a big wagon drawn by horses with piles of meat for the stew. It was guts and stuff that no one else wanted.”

The Butchers found themselves in the camp because William and Elsie, Brian’s parents, were missionaries from England. William went to China in 1936, and his fiancee, Elsie, joined him two years later.

“Mom took the railway. She went from France to Moscow and took the Trans Siberian railway to what was Peking at the time (now Beijing). Mom did worry about health and den-tal. Before she left she had all her teeth removed and had dentures in.”

The Butchers were married and had their first child, Brian, in the northern province of Kalgan, (now known as Zhangjiakou). There were fellow mis-sionaries, Alan and Violet Benson.

“Much later, Dad described what had happened to him. In late 1940 Alan Benson was arrested and tortured by the Japanese who thought he was a British spy. He was imprisoned for months and during that time they used water torture, pulled out his toenails and fingernails, strung him up by his wrists so that his toes barely touched the ground, and beat him until he passed out, all in order to obtain a confession. This was the con-text for my parents and me, when the Japanese came to order us to leave for internment.”

The Butchers were allowed to take three suitcases.

“We were marched through the streets between armed guards watched by the Chinese. We traveled by train to Weihsein where, along with many oth-ers, we were lined up in the hot sun to wait for assigned billets.”

Initially the three were put in a very small room in a long one-story building.

“We slept on the floor until some beds arrived. There was no stove until later in December and the room was bitterly cold. Because I was a small child and with my parents, we were given a stove and we built a chimney out of tin cans and made fuel balls by mixing powdered clay and coal dust. We kept the balls under the bed to keep them dry.”

Weihsein was one of the largest intern-ment camps with over 2000 people, 500 of whom were children.

“At the beginning there were very few flush toilets and the line-ups were incred-ible. Breakfast was bread soaked in water and for dinner there was a stew or soup of sorts. Sometimes there was dry bread

and the only thing we had for the bread was salt. For years afterwards I still ate bread and salt. Somehow the taste was embedded in my memory.”

The adults were assigned jobs within the camp. Brian’s parents were gone during the day and he was left alone much of the time and would play with the other children.

“Dad was assigned to the bakery. The story is very vivid in my mind for I heard my dad describe this so many times. The first day a guard came to my father and said in Chinese: ‘Your name is Butcher. You will make the bread.’ My dad’s experience with making

bread was very lim-ited to making the odd single loaf and he protested that his name meant ‘butcher’ – cutting meat. The guard was convinced that Dad was lying and he said: ‘You are butcher and you will make bread. The Imperial command never makes a mis-

take.’“Dad was taken to the bakery

and told to make a huge number of loaves. Dad’s belief that God would guide was very strong and he prayed for help. He and fellow internees mixed the

flour, yeast, and water into three huge vats. He had no idea how much to use but God impressed on him the amount that was required. As the mixture rose, it occurred to Dad that the dough needed to be kneaded down. That seemed so con-trary to what should be done, but they proceeded to do just that. When the dough rose again, they put the loaves into the oven and waited.

“The next morning the guard who had assigned my dad to the bakery came into the bakery, cut off a slice from one loaf with his bayonet and ordered dad to eat the slice. To dad’s surprise, the bread was as perfect as the ingredients would allow. The guard said, ‘Liar’ and left. During the summer the temperature in the bakery

often reached 130 degrees and dad would take off his shoes and pour out the moisture. There were three shifts of twelve men in the bakery and when internment ended my dad was a shadow of his former self at 100 pounds.”

His mother was also assigned to the kitchen. She sold her engagement and wedding rings for extra food.

Despite these conditions, his parents tried as best they could to shield Brian and make life as normal as possible. For the most part they succeeded. He played with his wooden car and collected labels from tin cans and razor blade covers.

Although the guards treated the intern-ees humanely, inevita-bly he saw things that most young children don’t.

“I can remember one day when we were allowed to cut some of the dead branches on trees for fuel. One young boy climbed a tree to cut wood while others watched below and he fell from the tree and was killed. It was my first encounter with death.”

Eric Liddell, the Scottish Olympian whose story was depict-ed in the 1981 film Chariots of Fire, died in the camp of a brain tumour just five months before liberation. Eric, like Brian’s parents, had been in China as a mis-

sionary. He spent his time at the camp as a leader, teaching Bible classes, arrang-ing games and teaching the children.

“Everyone was aware of him in the camp,” says Brian, but he doesn’t remem-ber him personally.

In August, 1945, two days after the official Japanese surrender to the Allies, a small rescue team parachuted from an American B24 Bomber.

“The huge plane flew overhead with a great roar. It circled around and out came seven parachutes – six American soldiers and one Chinese guy, an interpreter. When they landed the internees burst out the gate and overran the guards. I remem-ber them coming in and the Japanese bowed.”

Food parcels were dropped and the starving prisoners ripped them open to get the food; “People gorged on it and were sick.”

The Butchers, along with others, were taken to a hotel where they had food and clean beds. The Butchers went back to England but returned to China two years later as missionaries near Tibet.

“In 1949 the Communists came and were killing missionaries so we had to leave. We were in rugged mountainous country and we waited for a plane in an open meadow. I remember hearing the noise (of the plane) but it couldn’t come in (due to the weather) so it turned around and went back. We hid out there in the mountain and it came back the next morning and landed. As it took off the Chinese Communists came on horseback and were shooting.”

The Butchers moved around after that. They spent a month in India and then went to Japan for three years.

“The bitterness was gone for my par-ents but it must have been a struggle at first to work with Japanese after what we had experienced and what had happened to dad’s co-worker, Alan Benson.”

Brian’s school was two hours away by train – a commute he did every school day. They went back to England and then the United States and eventually to Canada, where Brian’s dad had relatives.

Brian got into the teaching profession and was instrumental in starting an off-shore BC school in Shanghai. He has been back to China several times but this summer he made a special trip.

This year marks the 70th anniversary of the liberation of the Weihsien Internment Camp and the Chinese gov-ernment invited all those who had been prisoners there to come back to celebrate this anniversary along with their fami-lies. Brian, with his wife, Emma, and his younger brother and his brother’s family took part in the celebration.

He saw his name, alongside his moth-er’s and father’s in the wall of remem-brance.

“It was special. They have made it a park and a memorial. It was amazing to see. One of the most interesting people who came was Joe Cotterill. He’s 98 years old and he came from England with his wife. He was a great friend of my dad’s and he remembered me. It recon-nected me, it came full circle.”

Shiver me timbers!

SALMON ARM – The North Okanagan Shuswap School District will receive $30,000 from the Industry Training Authority (ITA) for Secondary School Apprenticeship (SSA) program support for the 2015-16 school year.

The funds will support the School District 83 in placing SSA students in Grades 10, 11 and 12 with local employers to attain practical experience. Students will “earn while they learn” and gain credit towards their high school diploma and the apprenticeship portion of their trades training.

“The funds that we receive from the ITA are directly used to support existing youth apprentic-

es in their journey to complete Red Seal trade certification and to engage students, employers and parents in navigating and sharing the benefits of youth apprenticeships,” says Mark Marino, School District 83 dis-trict career supervisor. “The funds provide school staff with valuable time to build connec-tions and liaise with members of their communities.”

“Career programs are very important in the North Okanagan Shuswap School District and for the region in general,” Shuswap MLA Greg Kyllo says. “These program meet the needs of our students and help them prepare for life beyond high school.”

Last year’s SSA registration

numbers were the highest they have been since the 2009 pre-re-cession years. In 2014-15, 1,048 students registered in SSA pro-grams across B.C., representing an increase of more than 10 per cent over 2013-14.

“The youth play a pivotal role in sustaining B.C.’s future eco-nomic boom,” says ITA chief executive officer Gary Herman. “There are more skilled trades-people retiring from the work-force than entering it, so we need to support the youth in trades training so they are ready to respond to the increasing demand in the labour market.”

ITA partners with the Ministry of Education to deliver four youth programs focused on

ITA continues to support local trades trainingawareness building of skilled trades’ careers, practical work experi-ence and apprenticeship technical training: Skills Exploration 10-12; Ace-It; SSA; and Yes-2-It.

ANSWER TO PUZZLE NO. SU15904A



I was interested to read the letter by B. Campbell (Sept. 18/15 issue of Lakeshore News) and could not help but notice the parallel to what might have been written some 300 years ago about some other migrants seeking a new life.

“One of the concerns surrounding newly arrived people from other countries is their wanting to introduce all of their religious beliefs (Christianity in all of its forms) and customs (witch hunts, intol-erant class value system, dogmatism, the inquisi-tion by the Catholic church) from their previous homelands. Prior to immigrating, the applicants may have known or would have quickly become aware that Kanata’s laws, values, traditions, and practices differed from the ones that they were leaving. These differences range from religion, culture and how an individual lives. In spite of the differences these individuals (hundreds of thou-sands all from Britain and Europe) chose to immi-grate to Kanata.”

Not withstanding B. Campbell’s other comments in the letter, everyone now knows or should know what happened next to the indigenous people as a direct consequence of “all their immigrants’ reli-gious beliefs and customs being introduced” in a Draconian manner right up to the final closure of the last Canadian government-run Indian residen-tial school in 1996.

Natural assimilation takes more than a genera-tion – look at the excellent example of the boat people from Vietnam and the obstacles they have overcome in 40 years. Canada is a nation still evolving, so let us not go down a path seeking national purity. Our more recent history is guiding us towards a truly liberal civic nationalism not based on common ethnic ancestry, but a political entity whose core identity is not ethnicity.

For contemplation.James Roberts, Blind Bay

I just can’t sit on the sidelines and let people accept the Islamophobic rant from B. Campbell last week (Sept. 18/15 issue of Lakeshore News). To suggest that these people should have “chosen to move to a country that already practiced their chosen religion and ways of life” smacks of religious bigotry and suprema-cy. While preaching that “Canada is well know for its tolerance of others” on one hand, the letter writer then intolerantly suggests that “The majority of Canadians” believe in his or her narrow view of what Canada is. Please, for the sake of our country, let this not be true.

Canada indeed has a very long history or religions, traditions, cultures and free-doms but only some of these were estab-lished by B. Campbell’s great grandpar-ents and grandparents. They have also been influenced long before by the first peoples of this country who since wel-coming great grandpa might wish to take back that tolerant attitude given our histo-ry of persecution since. Our Canadian culture has been a work in progress for

the last three hundred years formed by those who chose this great country to flee religious or political persecution in their home country or just to make a better life economically for their family. Canada is built on the labour and dreams of Christian, East Asian, Asian, African, and Muslim peoples among others. Despite the protestations of the letter writer, our culture continues to change constantly whether you like it or not. I would sug-gest it is time to leave home and perhaps head to Vancouver to take in some of the rich culture and religious festivals that have been brought to our country by oth-ers.

With regard to our Muslim brothers and sisters, please stop defining their culture and religion by the remote prac-tices of “forced sex organ surgery” and denied education found in other countries and small sects of the religion. I think we can dig up enough dirt in the fringes of Judeo-Christian religion to show this in an unattractive light too, but what some bizarre Christian sect does with multiple

marriages and the subjugation of women does not define Christianity. Also, give the culture and religion time to absorb our culture within it. Arranged marriages, strange clothing, and the separation of men and women have occurred in many religions including many branches of Christianity and is not foreign to us. I bet B. Campbell’s great-grandmother was not allowed to vote and was generally prohibited from many institutions in our great country including land ownership. Whatever church they belonged to the governing body and ministers were (and perhaps still are) men. The notion of equality is a relatively new phenomenon in our world and Canada. Give it time.

In the meantime let’s welcome those that are different and celebrate what makes this country great. And let us wel-come them to our area. We are certainly not the most culturally diverse area of the province. Let us be the most open-mind-ed, caring, loving, and tolerant.

Think about the debt we’d have to cover

Send your comments and opinions in a short letter to

Letters to the EditorEmail: editorial@

lakeshorenews.bc.ca

Back in 1995, I had the extreme pleasure of being one of five Kelowna residents that took exception to Mr. Paul Martin’s concept of paying down the government deficit by increasing person-al income tax.

Our approach was to start a letter writing cam-paign to Mr. Martin and Mr. Cretien that outlined our views and our intended action, should he (they) carry out their plans. Suffice it to say that the cam-paign met with unbelievable success, and the only increase in taxation that year was one cent per litre of gasoline! (you’re welcome)

As I understand it, the problem was that the defi-cit had been created by Mr. Martin’s own party when a previous leader had scooped the idea of deficit financing from observing our neighbours down to the south, while under the leadership of Mr. Ronald Reagan. It seemed to be working for them, so why not us?

Well, by 1995, it was my understanding that Canada’s deficit had risen to something in the neighbourhood of thirty-four billion dollars. (That’s $34,000,000,000!) Where is it now? I’m not sure. But what is the significance of a thirty-four billion dollar debt?

Let’s put it into a different perspective. Let’s start with only one billion dollars, and let’s suppose that you owed someone one billion dollars, and let’s

suppose that you decided to retire the debt at the rate of one dollar per second. Let’s do the math!

To retire your debt at the rate of $1/second, that would mean $60 per minute, $3600 per hour, or $86,400 per day! Looks like this shouldn’t take too long, eh? But let’s continue.

At $85,400 per day, that would mean $31,536,000 per year! (that’s thirty-one million, five hundred and thirty six thousand dollars per year!) Now if you divide one year’s payment into the billion dol-lars that you owe, you’ll discover that it will only take 31.7 years to retire your debt at the rate of $31.5 million dollars per year! Now, the real prob-lem with all of this is simply that with debt comes “interest”...and we haven’t even begun to do the math on that!

So, the next time you hear your candidate in the upcoming elections, talking in terms of all the money they plan to spend in order to “buy” them-selves that comfy seat in Ottawa, try to remember that it’s your money that they plan to spend, and you, and your descendents will be saddled with covering the debt!

When the government says they’re spending tax money to give you something for free, look out! It’s your money they’re spending, so “it ain’t free!”

The advocate for our riding.

During the exhibi-tion in Armstrong ear-lier this month, I was one of 12 people staff-ing a booth with infor-mation about the upcoming federal election. I did so as an organizer for the Dogwood Initiative, which sponsored the booth, and a member of Renewing Democracy through Cooperation. Both groups are not affiliat-ed with any party, focussing on issues important to us includ-ing: improving democracy, more local d e c i s i o n - m a k i n g power over projects

which affect the envi-ronment, improving relations with First Nations, restoring Canada’s social safety net, and dealing with climate change. DI is a BC-wide organiza-tion, active for 15 years while RDTC is a new local group, focussed on the feder-al election.

We gave out infor-mation about the Dogwood question-naire for BC candi-dates (votebc.ca). All of the local candidates had completed it, excep t t he Conservative, Mel Arnold. This is line

with the rest of the province with only 1 of 42 Conservatives filling out the ques-tionnaire; almost all candidates for the other three parties did so. Many passers-by were puzzled or dis-mayed by the Conservatives’ lack of openness.

People wanted information on the 2014 changes in voter registration require-ments under the new elections act which make it more difficult for some people to vote. We encourage everyone to see if they are registered and if not, to register online (www.elections.ca), or at the Elections Canada offices in Vernon and Salmon Arm. We were struck by both the degree of uncertainty of voting intentions, and the willingness of voters to consider voting for parties for whom they had never before voted.

We carried out an informal poll, where passers-by were encouraged to vote with a spoonful of water in the jar of the party of their choice. We performed the exercise three times over the course of the IPE. In the first result, the Conservatives nar-rowly beat out the NDP. In the second and third polls, the NDP came out ahead. It’s certainly not a sci-entific poll, but an indication of the mood of the people who came up to speak with us at the IPE.

Eli Pivnick, Vernon


Informal poll shows uncertainty

Will you care for your parents when they need you? I know many seniors in facilities that rarely see their family. Maybe you’re just too busy with your job and your kids. And when you do see them it can be rather unpleasant because they are often miserable and complain about everything. And what do they have to complain about? Don’t they have medical professionals at their beck and call?

No. In many facilities they do not. Government facilities have insufficient staff and services such as therapy, due to a lack of funding. Whereas many privately owned “facilities for profit” choose to neglect our seniors. After all, their investors are expecting those large dividends. And this govern-ment allows this “business of neglect” by refusing to enforce adequate standards of care.

My research has proven that the senior health care system has been going downhill for years. What level of care will the system provide for you in the future? The citizens of this province must stop this decline, now. Our future depends upon the protest that we make, now. We must raise our voices to a level that can no longer be ignored by this government.

Anyone with a personal account of abuse or neglect of a loved one in a facility can make a dif-ference by emailing me their story which I will forward to the government. Please remember that children learn by example. If they see that you have not taken the time to protect your loved ones, will they protect you? [email protected]

Judy Galley, Sorrento

Gertrude and I just spent two weeks travel-ling in southwest Saskatchewan and southeast Alberta. We were amazed at the number of lakes and sloughs in that area and to notice that every one was brim full of water. On Highway 6 going north from Regina, there was one place where the water was encroaching onto the high-way. If this were a regular occurrence I’m sure the highways department would have built up the road there. Most farmers have enough intel-ligence not to build a barn where it might end up standing in water. Yet we saw a farm where the barn had to be at least fifty years old and was standing in two feet of water. We noticed a slough about every fifty to one hundred meters along the highway full of water. We spoke with some farmers in the area who told us last fall was the wettest harvest season in memory. It may turn out that this year will be wetter.

If you have read the book “Men Against the Desert,” or grew up in that region, you will know that it is in the heart of what is known as the “Palliser Triangle.” You will also know that during the 1920s and 1930s, this area had become desert, was blowing away, and water was non-existent. Yet here we are almost one hundred years later and it is one vast wetland. Why am I reporting this? It is to let all the “cli-mate Chicken Littles” know that Canada is not drying up! Climate changes, has for centuries, and will continue.

It is good to be concerned about doing what we can to save water and maintain a good cli-mate. But when it comes right down to it, we have very little control as to when and how much rain/snow we get and ultimately that determines our wetlands. Decided I would share this good news with our “Chicken Little” friends.

Seeking accounts of poor care or neglect


Letters to the EditorMy MP should show gumption Cats need food

As difficult as it may be for Mr. Fred Engels to believe while he wallows in his “utter disgust and contempt” for what he claims is my opinion, I made no insinuation as to whether or not I view lawyers or university professors as being “much more qualified to represent the people of this riding in Ottawa.” Sadly, most MPs no longer repre-sent their ridings in Ottawa. They stand up to vote when called upon. William Shakespeare in “Henry the Sixth,” wrote, “The first thing we do, let’s kill all the law-yers.” I have personal experience with both lawyers and university professors, ranging from very good to very very bad. I wrote fol-lowing Sally Scales’ column claiming that Mel Arnold was the only candidate who was still working, which I did not believe to be true. Does this depend on how you define the word “work-ing”?

Do I consider educa-tion a matter worthy of consideration? It could influence my vote, and it is certainly some-thing that makes me check the abilities and background of a candi-date. Education can be no more than lipstick on a pig. It does not guarantee wisdom or courage. Do I believe that other people are going to vote based on education alone? Yes. Do I know how they are going to vote? No. Do I believe that a Conservative MP from our riding will ever be anything more than a rubber stamp for Stephen Harper? No. How then does Mel Arnold manage to “speak for me” when

I have lived in Canoe for seven years. When I first moved in, I saw several cats dashing in and out of the hedge bushes; they looked sickly and undernourished. I discovered they were hiding under my neighbour’s trailer. The neighbour worried about the cats because she fed the birds year-round. I believe this was the cats’ main food source. I have seen several of the cats die. Four months ago I advertised asking if anyone had lost a pet. These cats may have been pets at one time but are now wild. I set up a feeding station five months ago and can’t believe how good they look. Three wonderful people pitched in and gave me some cat food, and these cats come several times a day looking for food.

Now, the food is almost gone and winter is coming up fast. The cats eat about 10 cups of dry food per day. The plan with the SPCA is to have these cats spayed and neutered sometime in the

all he will be allowed to say is “yes, sir!”? Did Colin Mayes? Ask MP Brent Rathgeber about this. Do I believe there will be a Conservative majori-ty? That would require one humongous politi-cal rabbit being pulled from the hat.

Mr. Engels has joined Sally Scales in supporting Mel Arnold for opposition back-bencher. That is their choice. I agree that anyone running as the Conservative candi-date should be “some-one who is not afraid of getting his hands dirty.” Whether or not that qualifies them to be an MP is or should be a matter for serious debate. Would anyone choose a heart surgeon or an airline pilot for that reason, and if so, why? I’ve butchered deer. How different can it be? The only job Stephen Harper ever had was mail boy in Imperial Oil Calgary, and he has always tried to avoid personal responsibility for dirty hands, yet they sup-port him. Was Stephen

Harper “good to go” with bribery?

This may sound naive, but I would like an MP who would be willing to show some gumption and tell the party that he or she does not support the party line and cannot vote according to something which has been decided by the spin doctors running the party because it is in direct opposition to the wishes and best interests of his or her constituents. That would be leadership. Or suicide. Remember Lac Megantic? Would Mel Arnold commit political suicide for us, or let us fry? Do we get to choose the bar-becue sauce?

The question Mr. Engels should now consider is “Do I believe that any of the candidates currently seeking to be our MP show signs of such moral fibre?” I will answer that question at the ballot box, as I hope will you all.

Those of you who come to see the annual Floating Lantern Celebration will have an extra treat: a lunar eclipse is predicted to occur at 7:45 p.m. on Sunday, September 27th, just as the lanterns are floating towards the bridge.

This wonderful spectacle, led by Runaway Moon Theatre, has taken place on B.C. Rivers Day several times over the past few years. Crowds of people from the Shuswap and Okanagan areas and beyond have come to enjoy this hon-ouring of the Shuswap River.

Please arrive at the Info Centre near the bridge in Enderby at around 6:30 p.m. The launch begins at dusk. If you are bringing a lantern, please arrive a little earlier to have the organizers ensure that it is ship-shape. Over a hundreds lanterns, made by local residents of all ages

including many children from M.V. Beattie and Shihaya Schools, will be lit and set to float in the current. With the aid of kayakers and canoeists,

the lanterns will be guided past the bridge to an area where they can be taken out of the river by volunteers. (If you are interested in bring-ing a boat and going down the river with the lanterns, please contact [email protected].

Lanterns are simple and fun to make. You can make

one at home, or attend one of the remaining drop-in times: At 904 Maud Street (by the Employment Centre) Friday 2:00–5:00 p.m.; and Saturday, September 26, 11:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.

And, there will be a chance to make a last-min-ute lantern on Sunday between 3:00 and 5:30 p.m.

Presenting an unconventional portrait of Brian Wilson, Love & Mercy explores the two eras of The Beach Boys’ lead singer and songwriter’s life when his creative process was both at its peak (set in the 1960s and portrayed by Paul Dano) and its most suppressed (set in the 1980s and portrayed by John Cusack). In his youth, he tirelessly searches for the perfect sound to keep his music original and ahead of the competition, all driven by an obsession to please his abusive father that slowly drives him to a mental break-down that haunts him for decades. It is 20 years

later that we find him over-medicated and domi-nated by his doctor (Paul Giamatti), but falling in love with Melinda (Elizabeth Banks) whose strength eventually helps Brian to free himself of his abusers and reach his salvation.

Love & Mercy shows at 5:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, September 26th at the Salmar Classic Theatre.

next Come Try Ringette event is Sunday, September 27, at 1:00 p.m. at the Shaw Centre. It’s a free event open to girls and boys ages 4-12 years. Please visit www.shuswapringette.ca for more information. Photo contributed.

SPORTS & LEISURE

The first annual Copper Island Fine Homes Charity Classic was an incredible success, thanks to the efforts of enthusiastic golfers, dedicated volunteers and generous sponsors.

The event, which took place on August 28, 2015 at Talking Rock Golf Course, saw 115 golfers of all abilities come out to compete for great prizes—and to show their support for the North and South Shuswap First Responders.

The day began around noon, with a chipping and putting contest held near the practice tees. A shot-gun start got the tour-nament underway at 2:00 p.m. sharp. Participants entered as either part of a four person scramble team, or as individuals in the men’s and women’s low gross and low net competition.

Ironically and unfortunately, while the First Responders were helping set up for the auction they were called out to an emergency. Two of the tournament volunteers, Pat and DJ Stanford, were injured in a car accident on their way home from the golf course. The First Responders were first on the scene and were able to stabilize both of them before the ambu-lance arrived, once again proving how neces-sary their services are.

At 7:00 p.m., players moved off the course into the banquet room at the Quaaout Lodge, where they were treated to refreshments and a buffet dinner. After dinner, prizes (which ranged from Android tablets, to cordless drill sets) were awarded to the top finishers in the various categories. This was followed by the live auction and silent auction results, acknowl-edgement of our sponsors, and a presentation by the First Responders.

The final part of the evening saw Copper

Island F ine Homes present a cheque to the North and South First Responders for $10,000. But this was only a preliminary amount, and in the days that followed, a post-event audit was completed and determined that the final dona-tion would be $15,000!

“This tournament was an unqualified suc-cess,” says Greg Vistisen, President and CEO of Copper Island Fine Homes. “We’re in awe of the total community effort, from the enthu-siasm and selflessness of both volunteers and participants, to the incredible generosity of our sponsors—the suppliers and sub-trades who we work with every day on our jobsites who really stepped up to the plate. Ultimately, what really matters is that we raised significant funds for our First Responders—the members of our communities who volunteer and pro-vide critical pre-ambulance care during medi-cal emergencies. Thank you to all who made this event such a success.”

Sunshine broke through the clouds long enough for approximately 150+ participants and volunteers to raise about $4,575 for the Terry Fox Run. Children, parents, pets and out-of-town visitors enjoyed a good walk or run and visiting with old friends at Blackburn Park while enjoying snacks, drinks and good music and donating to a great cause. “Terry’s dream lives on,” say local run organizers Cliff and Fran Evans, “and he would be so proud all these 35 years later. Thank you for all your support.”

Twirling dancers Fishing reopensThe B.C. government has lifted its fishing ban

in the Okanagan region, joining most areas of the South Coast region where fishing was reopened earlier this week.

Fishing is reopened on the Similkameen, Kettle, Middle Shuswap and Okanagan River mainstem, after rain and cooler water tempera-tures reduced the risk to fish stocks.

In the South Coast region, the Seymour and Coquihalla Rivers remain closed, due to barrier restrictions from rockslides that restrict upstream migration of steelhead.

The restrictions and reopening are co-ordinat-ed with Fisheries and Oceans Canada regula-tions for migratory salmon.

If you want a valance over the kitchen win-dow, put one up. If you want to paint one wall of your living room orange, go ahead and do it. If you still love that peculiar 1990s floor lamp whose bobbing arm tentacles seem to take over the whole room, leave it in place.

More frequently than you would think, I am asked if a particular decor item, style or element is ‘in’ or ‘out.’ I think the things that go ‘out’ – and tend not to come back – are trends. Like wallpaper borders of fruit bowls marching around the ceiling in the kitchen. Or stacked glass backsplashes. Or feature walls. And it’s probably not a bad idea, generally, to avoid these things. They can really date-stamp your home...if that’s something you care about.

Good interior decorating starts with function, and that includes how the decorating fits the lifestyle of the homeowners. If an orange wall fits your lifestyle, so be it.

I guess I shouldn’t be so hard on feature walls, but here is what I know about them:

Way back, the housing boom gave us big rooms in big houses which were built quickly, seemingly without one iota of thought given to style. So there were no architectural interests in most rooms–like fireplaces or arches, or bay window seats. Just big rectangular rooms.

So, to give these rooms a focal point, we paint-ed one wall a contrasting colour. (Eye goes to the area of greatest contrast first...). Gradually, we learned to create interest with art, area rugs, fur-niture groupings, spectacular beds and great accessories; the odd-coloured walls became a hindrance and were painted out. And for that I am, personally, thankful.

But that doesn’t mean you can’t have one. I’ll repeat,”If you want to paint one wall of your living room orange, go ahead and do it.”

William Morris, (the “grandfather” of modern interior design), said, “I do not believe you should have anything in your home that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful.”

So there is my rant about in and out. I’ll keep answering the question, I’m sure, but it would be really great if you would stop following trends and just do what you want to do. Do what feels right, do what makes you happy.

After all, you live in your home – not a bunch of advice-giving self-described poo-bahs.

And remember, too, that free advice is often worth what you paid for it.

designdilemmas

By Tom Fletcher, Black PressOver vocal objections from some representa-

tives, local politicians have narrowly endorsed a call for an “environmental bill of rights” for B.C. at their annual convention.

Calling it “an idea whose time has come,” Richmond Coun. Harold Steves sponsored the motion Wednesday at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention in Vancouver. It calls for recognition of a right to “live in a healthy environment, including the right to clean air, clean water, clean food and vibrant ecosystems.”

Steves reminded delegates of a summer of smoke from forest fires and a drought that saw his Cache Creek farm run out of water. He noted the bill of rights has been supported by 36 municipal-ities around B.C., after a tour of local councils by the David Suzuki Foundation’s Blue Dot cam-paign.

The idea was quickly challenged.“How is this resolution going to prevent forest

fires and create clean air?” North Cowichan Coun. Al Siebring asked. “It’s not.”

Williams Lake Mayor Walt Cobb dismissed the bill of rights movement as “David Suzuki propa-ganda” backed by urban people who don’t under-stand that mining and forestry provide the lumber, copper and other products that build their homes and communities.

Cobb said it already takes years of environmen-tal review before resource extraction can be

approved, “and if this passes, it will be another nail in the coffin of rural B.C.”

Chilliwack Mayor Sharon Gaetz urged support for the bill of rights, arguing it would “raise our consciousness.” Victoria Mayor Lisa Helps quot-ed from a presentation to council by an 11-year-old boy and joined other delegates in calling for the resolution to support future generations.

Coquitlam Coun. Terry O’Neill listed a dozen provincial laws governing clean water, air pollu-tion, public health and food safety, calling on the convention to focus on specific measures instead of asserting rights that are actually “a demand for others to do something for you.”

Nanaimo Regional District director Julian Fell agreed, saying four of the six rights proposed to his board are actually “entitlements.” He called for the UBCM to declare that water and air should be legally guaranteed to remain public assets.

Politicians split over environmental ‘rights’

AQUARIUS Aquarius, you appreciate all the positive feelings coming your way, especially in a week as challenging as this one. Make the most of all of the positive vibes.

PISCES Pisces, you may have a hard time distinguishing between fantasy and reality the next few days. But enjoy the extra time to daydream.

ARIES Hasty reactions can lead to unnecessary problems, Aries. Instead of making assumptions, wait until you get a clear picture before you come to any conclusions this week.

TAURUSTaurus, others are impressed with your analysis and ability to get the job done at work. Don’t be surprised if you soon find yourself in line for a promotion.

GEMINIThere is nothing wrong with trying to make special moments last as long as they can, Gemini. If you want to linger over a romantic dinner or keep the party going, do so.

CANCERTry to find a balance between your need for connection and a desire to be alone, Cancer. This week you may have to do some juggling, but it is nothing you can’t handle.

LEOLeo, you may feel free and adaptable right now, but in reality your plans are much more fixed. You may not want to stray too far from what’s expected.

Hi Reena,I’m so glad you have a blog now, so I can

go back on some articles you have had in the past. Also, we go away for winter, so I can keep up with you that way. I have a question: My friend had a new driveway poured, and he also had an apple tree nearby that dropped those little apples on the driveway with a splat and left dark brown marks. What would you suggest he use to remove those marks? I know it’s too late in the season now, but hopefully you can suggest something for the spring. Thanking you in advance, Elvera

Dear Elvera,Sprinkle the driveway with a box of bak-

ing soda. Using a stiff brush, dampened with water. Scrub the area until the stains are gone. If the stains remain, scrub the drive-way with one of the following: laundry detergent and water or TSP (trisodium phos-phate) and water or washing soda and water. Rinse. As a last resort, combat tough spills with muriatic acid and a pressure washer. Apply the acid following the manufacturer’s directions, and let it soak for several seconds. Keep in mind that muriatic acid is a danger-ous product; if you use it, wear rubber or latex gloves, safety goggles and protective clothing; and never wash it down storm drains. Test all solutions on an inconspicuous area first.

Dear Reena,Can you please tell me how to clean wood

finish cupboards? Also, what is a great reci-pe for ‘Monster Cookies’? Sincerely, Lorraine

Dear Lorraine,Mild dish soap and water is all that is

recommended for cleaning the grease off of kitchen cupboards (just a damp clean cloth or mildly abrasive cloth and no excess water, dry immediately). This is very effec-tive, since dish soap is created as a grease cutter.

Here is a wonderful recipe that makes six dozen ‘Best Monster Cookies’! In a bowl combine 1 cup butter, 1 and a half cups peanut butter (if you don’t like peanut but-ter, substitute 1 cup margarine for peanut butter), 2 cups brown sugar and 2 cups white granulated sugar. Add 4 eggs and 1 tbsp. vanilla, beat until smooth. To the bat-ter add, 3 cups flour, 5 cups rolled oats, 2 tsp. baking soda, 1 tsp. baking powder and 1 tsp. salt. Mix until combined. Stir in 2 cups chocolate chips and 1 cup M & M’s. Drop by tablespoons onto greased cookie sheets and bake at 350 degrees for 10 min-utes or until edges start to turn light brown. Freeze leftovers. Extra tip: You can substi-tute peanuts or walnuts for the same amount of some of the candy.

Hi Reena,I own a water cooler that is about 10

years old. I have misplaced the directions for cleaning the inside of my cooler. I seem to remember using a bleach solution to clean the reservoir. Can you give me sug-gestions please? Thank you in advance, Inez

Dear Inez,Health Canada recommends that you

clean your cooler system after every bottle change. Begin by disconnecting the unit from the wall. Remove the bottle from the cooler unit. Drain the water through the blue faucet into a bucket. Disconnect any removable parts from the unit. Wash parts thoroughly with dish soap and water. Rinse. If you have a hot and cold dispenser, plug the hot dispenser off using a cork or plug. Doing this prevents sanitizer from getting into the hot tank. Combine one gallon water and one tbsp. vinegar. With this solution, clean all of the interior surfaces of the reservoir. Let the solution sit for 7 min-utes. Fill reservoir full of fresh bottle water and drain the water through the cold faucet. Repeat three times. Remove cork from the hot tank and replace all parts. Plug unit into wall. You can use 1 tsp. bleach instead of 1 tbsp. Vinegar; however, I prefer vinegar since it is safe for consumption.

Dear Reena,A very recent column suggested that

Meghan’s boyfriend’s “world’s worst man-ners” were primarily a result of sub-cultur-al variances. While I whole-heartedly agree with your explanation and solution, I am slightly bewildered by Meghan’s concern that her ill-manneredly boyfriend “leaves his napkin on the table when he goes [away] to the bathroom”. Where does she expect him to leave his napkin?

I was under the impression that the nap-kin should always be left on the table when leaving, for whatever reason with the only exception that the (home) hostess would

place her napkin on her chair-seat when she arose to attend to items to or from the kitch-en. Have I been wrong all these many years? Has this napkin-placing etiquette changed? Thank-you for a truly fascinating column, James

Dear James,Nice that you have given this matter some

thought! Manner experts advise that if you need to leave the table during a meal, place your napkin on the seat of your chair. You are never supposed to put your napkin back onto the table before the meal has ended. According to North American etiquette, at the end of the meal the hostess picks up his/her napkin and places it on the table to the left of his/her plate. When this occurs, guests also place their napkin on the left of their plate. This indicates that the meal is over.

Fabulous Tip of the Week:• I recently read an article about rabbits in

the yard eating things we do not want them to eat. I found an excellent inexpensive, environmentally friendly and easy solution. Grate Irish Spring bar soap just like cheese and sprinkle it around problem areas (or around perimeter of property) to keep rab-bits away. Submitted by Mel

I enjoy your questions and tips – keep them coming! Missed a column? Can’t remember a solution? Need a speaker for an upcoming event? Interested in grocery coupons? Check out reena.ca.
