People with Type 1 diabetes have reason to hope that they won’t have to inject insulin for the rest of their lives. Scientists are working with stem cells. It is known that stem cells can be trained to act like any other type of body cell and the researchers are training them to produce human insulin. Many steps must be taken before actual clinical trials can take place around 2017, but it looks promising.

Everyone loves snack foods at times. Instead of reaching for the potato chips and pretzels, try some nuts. Almonds, pistachios, cashews, walnuts and pumpkins seeds do contain fat but these fats are polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats which are good for us. They are also packed with protein.

It takes about 5 to 6 hours for our bodies to eliminate

half the caffeine in a cup of coffee. Some people need that to help kickstart their days. It’s also a reason why a coffee too late in the day may not be advisable if you have sleeping problems.

Most “cold pills” contain an antihistamine and a decongestant. The antihistamine helps to dry mucus secretions and reduce the irritation caused by coughing. The decongestant relieves

the stuffy feeling in the nose and sinuses. Some products may contain a pain reliever and/or a cough suppressant which may or may not be needed. The best product choice is one that treats only the symptoms you have.

CP Rail engineers, conductors end strikeA strike by CP Rail engineers

and conductors ended Monday less than two days after workers took to the picket lines across the country.

The end of the strike was announced by Kellie Leitch, the Federal Minister of Labour, Mon-day morning, who told report-ers in Ottawa the two sides had agreed to arbitration.

The announcement was fol-lowed by statements from CP Rail and the Teamsters Canada Rail Conference.

The move came moments before Leitch was set to table back-to-work legislation in Par-liament.

“We took this strike action to improve the quality of life and the working conditions for our mem-bership,” said Doug Finnson, the president of the TCRC in a news release. “Our preference is to negotiate these improve-ments through collective bargain-ing, and the worst thing that could happen is a legislated process.These issues are far too important to our members to have a legis-lated process decide the issue.

“Consequently the better option is to use a fair mediation and arbitration dispute resolution in front of an independent arbi-trator, where we can demonstrate that our plan is a proven fatigue management system which is highly regarded for a long time and is far superior to what the employer seeks to obtain.”

TCRC represents about 3,300 workers across Canada, including about 175 in Revelstoke.

Pickets were taken down Mon-day afternoon and rail traf� c was set to resume Tuesday morning.

John Kiengersky, one of the chairmen for the Revelstoke local, said members were disap-pointed by the news.

“There’s a lot of big concerns the members have,” he said. “They were hoping that through

the process of the democratic right to picket that these issues were going to be dealt with.”

A CP Rail news release said the federal government would appoint an arbitrator.

“This decision ensures both sides will get back to the table, and gets us back to moving Can-ada’s economy forward,” said E. Hunter Harrison, CP’s Chief Executive Of� cer. “While we would have preferred a negotiated settlement, this is the right thing to do at this time.”

The 1.5 day strike began Sun-day at midnight when engineers and conductors set up picket lines outside rail yards across the coun-try. In Revelstoke, they set up in the CP parking lot on Victoria Road.

Finnison announced the strike with a news release on Satur-day night. He said CP Rail was demanding severe concessions from the union.

“We are on strike to overcome the culture of fear initiated by CP management, to achieve a healthy and safe work environment for the working people, and to intro-duce effective and progressive fatigue countermeasures within our workplace without diminish-ing the collective agreement.” he said.

CP Rail says it has offered increased wages and bene� ts, as well as changes to work sched-ules that would improve the qual-ity of life for conductors and engineers.

Harrison said engineers and conductors aren’t taking the time off they’re entitled to. “We want to implement a model that allows us to properly schedule crews while maintaining the highest standards of safe railroading,” he said in a news release.

On Sunday, Leitch, who involved herself in the bargaining late in the week, issued a state-ment accusing the union of sti-� ing progress in negotiations and calling on it “to cease all strike action and immediately return to

the negotiating table.”“Due to this reckless disregard

for Canadians, and the Canadian economy, our Government will review all available options to end any work-stoppage expediently, up to and including the introduc-tion of legislation in Parliament,” she stated.

In response, Finnison issued a statement on the TCRC website expressing disappointment in the government’s support of CP Rail. “Disappointment in our Govern-ments clear favouritism towards the corporate position is only exceeded by our determination to never give up the � ght to protect the rights and working conditions of our fellow workers,” he wrote. “The workers voices will not be silenced by legislation and the workers rights in Canada are not something that should be over-ridden by the corporate elite and their political allies.”

Despite the strike, rail traf� c continued at a reduced level, with managers driving trains. That has been an issue for the union recently, said Kiengersky.

Engineers and conductors in Revelstoke have complained of deteriorating working con-ditions over the past few years since Hunter Harrison took over as CEO of CP Rail. Recently, the company merged the Moun-tain and Shuswap divisions into one super-pool, which workers say makes it more dif� cult to pre-dict when they will be called in to work.

“The primary issue that we’re striking for is fatigue manage-ment,” said Kiengersky while on the picket line on Sunday. “We have issues of the company reduc-ing our rest, wanting us to be at work more. The guys are tired.

“We have collective agree-ment issues. We have hundreds of examples of crews coming on to work and serving 10 hours notice in accordance with the collective agreement, and the company fail-ing to recognize that and forcing us to work more than 10 hours.”

Members of the Teamster Canada Rail Conference stand on the picket lines at the CP Rail parking lot on Victoria Road on Sunday. They held signs with ‘fatigue’ and ‘strike’ written on them on the � rst day of their 1.5-day labour stoppage. Alex Cooper/Revelstoke Times Review

MP David Wilks ask for $5 billion for Trans-Canada twinning

MP David Wilks put in a $5 bil-lion request to twin the Trans-Canada through the national parks in his rid-ing, he told council.

“That cost, so that everyone knows, is the cost just to do twinning of the Trans-Canada Highway through the national parks, not including any pro-vincial portion of the highway,” he said.

He said twinning the highway through Yoho National Park would

cost $1 billion, Glacier National Park would cost $2.5 billion and Mount Revelstoke National Park would cost $800-900 million.

Those are 2012 dollars.“What I have impressed upon

the Prime Minister and Minister of Finance is that every year we wait, it will cost more,” he said.

Last year, $50 million was spent paving sections of the highway and upgrading bridges through the national parks, said Wilks, and the snowsheds east of Rogers Pass are expected to be lit this year.

“(The Trans-Canada) is my number one priority bar non in my whole constituency,” he told council.

BIG COMPETITION FOR INFRASTRUC-TURE GRANT

Revelstoke is facing tough competition for infrastructure grants, MP David Wilks advised council.

Wilks was in Revelstoke to talk to council about the Small Communities Grant, which is a federal-provincial infrastructure fund for all communities under 100,000 people.

“The challenge is it’s a $1 bil-lion fund,” he said. “$1 billion doesn’t go too far when you con-sider all the communities that are eligible.”

Revelstoke has applied for funding for the $5.7 million needed to upgrade the Big Eddy Waterworks.

More than $60 million in applications has been made in the Kootenay-Columbia riding alone, Wilks said.

That includes $30 million for a waste water treatment plant in Kimberley, $13 million for road upgrades in Cranbrook, $8 mil-lion for a water main in Creston, and many other infrastructure projects in communities through-out the riding.

“I will do my best to move these forward,” he said. “What I suggest and what I told all the communities is that staff move forward with their applications, and that you give us knowledge of what they are so we ca follow them through the system.”

COUNCIL REJECTS VACATION RENTAL APPLICATION

A proposed vacation rental in Upper Arrow Heights was rejected by council after unan-imous opposition from neigh-bours.

“After reading the letters from the neighbours and presentations from the owners, I don’t feel they have sufficient space for park-ing and also they are not going with what they said they would do with the neighbourhood,” said coun. Gary Sulz.

The application was from a property at 1766 Biatecki Road. At a public hearing on Jan. 27, neighbours opposed the applica-tion, both in writing and in per-son.

“I’m all for vacation rentals if they’re good for the commu-nity and they’re good for the loca-tion,” said coun. Connie Brothers. “Most of the complaints seem to be dealing with an enforcement issues. I don’t think I can support this given the letters that are sub-mitted.”

Couns. Aaron Orlando and Linda Nixon, and Mayor Mark McKee also voted against the application.

“The number one message for vacation rental is it acceptable to the neighbourhood. Is it meeting the bylaw?” said McKee. “Vaca-tion rentals have to respectful of the neighbourhood and for that reason I’m voting against this application as well.”

Meanwhile, a public hear-ing was held for an applica-tion for 817 Silver Ave. Council received a letter from Bruce Allen and Eileen Fletcher asking that encroachment and access issues are addressed before approving the application.

An application for a vacation rental at 2077 Mountain Gate Road was adopted by council.

MVE HERITAGE DESIGNATION PROCEEDS

Council gave first and second reading to a bylaw that would give heritage designation to Mountain View Elementary.

The Revelstoke School Dis-trict applied for the designation following public consultation. It removed additions to the school in the fall and only the original building remains on the site.

A public hearing will be held in council chambers on Tuesday, Mar. 10 at 2:30 p.m.

DAVID RAVEN REMOVED FROM RCFC BOARD

Council voted to remove for-mer Mayor David Raven from the board of the Revelstoke Commu-nity Forest Corporation.

Raven was on the board in his capacity of mayor, but his removal was questioned by the Times Review given his many decades of experience in the for-est industry.

Mayor Mark McKee said the decision was because of the pol-icies that govern the makeup of the board. According to the pol-icy, the seven-member board must include four members of council or city staff, and three members of the public. The pub-lic members currently include Geoff Battersby, Loni Parker and Jim Blake.

BUDGET DELIBERA-TIONS BEGIN FRIDAY

Revelstoke council will hold its first budget meeting in coun-cil chambers this Friday, Feb. 20, at 3 p.m.

A second special budget meet-ing is scheduled for Tuesday, Mar. 3. Council hopes to approve the plan at a special meeting on Thursday, Apr. 9.

The budget process was delayed when Graham Inglis, the city’s director of finance, fell ill earlier this month.

Tim Palmer retires as City of Revelstoke CAO

Tim Palmer, the Chief Admin-istrative Officer of the City of Revelstoke, has retired, the city announced on Friday.

Palmer has been with the city since January 2011, when he was hired for the CAO position from Burns Lake, B.C.

He led a restructuring of city hall, merging the planning and engineering departments in a move that was designed to lower costs by reducing staff, and make the city more customer friendly. He has also overseen efforts to address the city’s financial issues by reducing reliance on borrow-ing, increasing reserves and mini-mizing tax increases.

His time has not been without controversy. Notably, in 2013 he started a renovation of city hall that stalled after a few months when the city ran out of money to complete the project. The down-stairs offices at city hall have sat empty for more than 1.5 years, and work is not expected to be completed until this spring.

His departure was not unex-pected. In October, in the days leading up to the election, he sus-pended Alan Mason, the city’s popular director of economic development, without pay. The move was decried by many and quickly reversed by council. Palmer was forced to issue a pub-lic apology. He was also stripped of his supervisory duties over Mason.

Following his election victory, Mayor Mark McKee threw his support behind Mason.

Palmer’s departure has been rumoured for several weeks, though no one would confirm his status at city hall until Friday. He was not at city hall for more than two weeks prior to his retirement.

He missed the last two coun-cil meetings and council has held two closed-door meetings in recent weeks to discuss personnel issues.

Mayor and council denied multiple requests to comment on his situation until Friday morn-ing. At that point, questions were directed to councillor Linda Nixon, not the mayor. McKee declined to answer questions about Palmer’s retirement.

In a news release, council-lor Linda Nixon praised Palm-er’s work ethic and the leadership team he built.

“He has streamline the orga-nization and has the unique abil-ity to bring highly dedicated and quality people to the city’s team,” she said. “The City of Revel-stoke is a unique community with unique challenges and Tim has helped us accomplish a great deal.”

In an interview, she said Palmer

was retiring on his own volition. He said his contract allowed for a payment upon retirement, but did not know for how much.

“This is quite common when there is almost a complete change in council to see the top staff retire,” she said.

PALMER RETIRING WILLINGLY

Tim Palmer says he has left Revelstoke with a strong legacy that will allow for growth going forward.

Palmer showed up in Revel-stoke on Friday, hours after the city announced his retirement as Chief Administrative Officer.

His appearance was unex-pected given the mysteries that have surrounded his situation since he left city hall three weeks ago.

“I’ve had a few irons in the fire, I’ve been checking things out, so there’s been a little suspense for the last couple weeks,” he told me in an interview in my office.

Palmer said he’s retiring hap-pily and willingly and the move is not being forced. He avoided a question asking if he was receiv-ing a buy out or settlement from the city to leave the post he’s held since 2011.

Palmer appears to be taking advantage of the election of a new mayor and council to leave his post. The Alan Mason affair did not play into his decision.

“The people have spoken with the council and they’re look-ing at a change,” he said. “This affords an opportunity for them to see where they want to go in the future.”

Palmer, 55, intends on staying in Revelstoke with his wife Jac-qui, and serving as a consultant for local governments.

“Retirement for me doesn’t mean stop doing things,” he said. “It means there’s new opportuni-

ties. I’ve been approached by oth-ers already and I’m looking for-ward to it.”

He touted the restructuring of city hall and moves towards fiscal prudence as his biggest accom-plishments with the city.

“We’ve made huge head-way is reducing debt, address-ing reserves, making sure our expenses are brought in line,” he said, adding that former mayor David Raven deserves credit there. The fiscal changes, which included no new borrowing last year, will benefit the city going forward, he said.

He also cited the restructuring of city hall, including the merging of the planning and engineering departments, as a major achieve-ment.

“It came with controversy but it was needed in order to bring an organization that was fiscally responsible and provided good service,” he said. “The key part is the employees we have are dedi-cated to providing good service in an efficient manner.”

Palmer countered criticism of the delayed city hall renovations by saying the decision to stop work was necessary. At the time, he said the move was a result of lost revenue from success-ful assessment appeals by Revel-stoke Mountain Resort.

“Your statements don’t fully reflect the reality there,” he said. “Maybe in hindsight we would have just got it done and found the money in other sources or borrowed.”

He feels positive about the future of the community and is looking forward to watching as the new mayor and council move forward.

“I’ve built an organization I feel very proud of leaving, know-ing the expertise for the commu-nity will continue to be there,” he said. “I see a legacy that will con-tinue on into the future.”

We all feel sad from time to time. It is a normal and appropriate response to dis-appointment and loss. But how do you tell whether your child or teen is experiencing normal sadness or suffering from clinical (or major) depression that may need expert help?

Telling the difference can be difficult as the symptoms of depression can be differ-ent in children and teens from adults. In young children, it may express itself by being excessively clingy, frequently cry-ing, expressing fear that they or others will die, losing interest in toys or friends, los-ing interest in school or refusing to go, fre-quent headaches, stomach aches or feeling sick.

In older children and teens, along with many of those symptoms can come others like withdrawal and social isolation. Other symptoms can be a lack of energy, extreme boredom, inability to concentrate or com-municate, loss of friends, or lack of desire to see friends. Changes in patterns of eat-ing and sleeping (either too much or too lit-tle) are common signs, as is being unable to get out of bed or off the couch. If your teen has previously been involved in sports and hobbies, depression may show up as

an inability to enjoy or partake in activities that used to bring pleasure. Also common are feelings of excessive regret, guilt and remorse and increased irritability, aggres-sion and hostility, as well as extreme sen-sitivity to rejection, criticism or failure. Sometimes untreated anxiety can turn into depression when the child or youth feels overwhelmed by their fears. One or two such symptoms usually aren’t enough to make a diagnosis, but a pattern of sadness or loss of interests or pleasure combined with three or four such symptoms extend-ing over two weeks or longer is more sug-gestive of clinical depression.

For parents, some of these symptoms can seem at times like normal teenage angst, lack of motivation or even misbe-haviour. In fact, up until about two decades ago, it was thought that depression was pri-marily an adult disorder that rarely affected children or teens. Any symptoms displayed were put down to "a phase," moodiness, over-dramatization, or self-indulgence. "Snap out of it!" many a parent would bark — thinking erroneously that cajoling or scolding might help.

Now we know much better. Depression is a serious mental health issue that affects about two per cent of BC children and ado-lescents every year. It is more common in girls, but it may be that depressed boys and teenage males display other behaviours like aggression, substance use, and delin-quency, which can mask the depression.

The risk of experiencing an episode of depression rises with age and with fam-ily history. While sometimes depression comes seemingly out of the blue, it can also be triggered in susceptible youth (with a genetic predisposition or with low self-esteem, perfectionist tendencies, for exam-ple) by trauma, anxiety, guilt or regret, or the death of a loved one or other signifi-

cant loss.On its own, depression is bad enough,

but its hopelessness and despair, with the inability to see a brighter future, can also lead to suicide, which is the second lead-ing cause of death among 15-24 year olds.

Fortunately, depression is highly treat-able and youth are more likely to respond well to treatment if they receive it early. Treatment can consist of psychotherapy to teach youths how to address thoughts and behaviours that can lead to depression. Also, anti-depressant medication can be very effective at reversing depression and keeping relapses at bay.

If your child seems to be showing symp-toms of depression, talk to your family doctor, a mental health professional or the mental health clinicians through the Min-istry of Children and Family Development (MCFD).Call Service BC at 1 800 663-7867 to find the MCFD office nearest to you. Their experts will screen for depres-sion and help your child access the most appropriate treatment if needed.

We do know that healthy diets, regu-lar exercise, good sleep, and the ability to talk about problems with people who care are all protective against depression or relapses. Information and support are avail-able through a number of websites, such as: ok2bblue.com, dwdonline.ca, heretohelp.ca; mindyourmind.ca; keltymentalhealth.ca, mindcheck.ca, openmind.ca.

For youth with suicidal thoughts please call the BC Youth Crisis Line 1-800-sui-cide, visit youthinbc.com to chat with a counsellor in real time, or go to the Emer-gency Department of your nearest hospital.

Next column, we will talk about sub-stance use.

MENTAL HEALTHBY DR. DAVID SMITH

A petition has been launched calling for a halt to logging on Mt. Macpherson "until a publicly acceptable solution is found that considers and legally protects all values and interests (recreational, quality of life, economic) in the area."

The petition was posted to Change.org last Monday, Feb. 9. It asks the City of Rev-elstoke, Columbia Shuswap Regional Dis-trict and provincial government to engage with local stakeholders regarding the future management of the Macpherson area.

The Times Review reported in Septem-

ber that sections of Mt. Macpherson are slated to be logged by BC Timber Sales in 2016. The harvesting would impact sev-eral mountain biking and cross-country ski trails.

In response to concerns, local forestry companies held an open house last month that was attended by about 150 people, however it did little to address concerns regarding logging close to Revelstoke.

The petition asks: "We respectfully request that the City of Revelstoke, CSRD and the Province of BC work together with the citizens and stakeholders of Revelstoke to ensure that all values (recreation, qual-ity of life, tourism, forestry etc.) and inter-

ests are considered and legally protected in the management of the Mt. Macpherson area. In the interim, we request that all log-ging activities affecting the Mt Macpher-son recreation area are suspended until a workable, and publicly acceptable solution is found."

The petition had garnered more than 1,100 supporters by Monday’s press time.

Disclosure: I wrote a column in Septem-ber advocating for a new land-use plan for Mt. Macpherson. I have also signed the petition. If you have a problem with my reporting on this subject, please contact myself or my publisher Mavis Cann at 250-837-4667.

Sitting in jail, it wasn't the drugs or even the partying Margo Talbot missed – it was the fresh air and the mountains she was yearning for.

“I had a boyfriend at 28, he was a partier like me, but he was also an ice climber and he took me,” said Tal-bot, the author of All That Glitters: A Climbers Journey Through Addiction and Depression. “Two weeks later I was thrown in jail for drug dealing. When I was sitting in jail I didn't miss my friends or the drugs. I missed the mountains.”

While Talbot had only been ice climbing once, she had begun ski tour-ing a few years before that, and had cross-country skied since the age of nine. Her exploits – she is credited with many first ascents in the Cana-dian Rockies – have led her to moun-tain ranges around the world, garnered her sponsorships, and seen her com-pete at the X-games.

It was ice climbing that became Tal-bot's catalyst to heal from her depres-sion and drug addiction.

“My addiction was because I was self-medicating for my mental health,” said Talbot.

Asked what it is that drew her to develop a passion for ice climbing, Talbot is quick to mention the aggres-sion required of the sport.

“It takes a certain level of aggres-sion to kick the ice and swing your axe. When you first start it feels dan-gerous and risky. It forces you to be in the present moment.”

Looking back, however, she had no idea where ice climbing would take her.

“I was just trying to figure out a way to stay afloat. I had no idea where it would take me,” she said.

Talbot says while there is still a stigma about mental health issues within the sports world it is changing.

“I'm starting to see it [talk about mental illness] come out in sports like the NHL. In the big sports world there is still a huge stigma,” said Talbot,

however she doesn't feel that same stigma towards herself when speak-ing about her own struggles with men-tal illness

“There's not a stigma towards myself because I'm so comfortable talking about it. I think I'm immune to it now. Mental illness and addic-tion have always existed in this cloud of mystery and I do my part to dispel that mystery.”

Perhaps it is for that very reason Talbot is adamant that it is not only climbers and those struggling with mental illness who can make a con-nection to her story.

“Mental health issues and addiction affect everyone in some way. These are social problems, they are not indi-vidual problems.”

Margo Talbot will be at the Revel-stoke Library to talk about her book All That Glitters on Thursday, Febru-ary 19 at 7 p.m.

Margo Talbot’s battle with depression through ice climbing

Margo Talbot’s ice climbing exploits have led her around the world, includ-ing Antarctica.

Publishing February 25th

STOKE YOUTH

Welcome to the new Stoke Youth Network page. Once a month, the Times Review will feature articles by youth, about youth in Revelstoke. The goal is to highlight the many great things they are up to in the community. The work is a collaboration between the Stoke Youth Network, Revelstoke Secondary School and the Times Review.

Last April in Ono-Cho, Japan, myself and a group of 11 other Revelstoke Secondary School students found ourselves warmly greeted by the students and fam-ilies of the suburb of Gifu City, Japan. The � ashy signs screamed our names and called us over as if we were already family.

My sister and I were given the incredible chance to stay with two Japanese families for two nights each. They fed us tradi-tional Oriental cuisine, took us shopping in the local supermar-ket, and taught us to speak a bit of Japanese. The hospitality we were shown was like nothing we had ever experienced before, and we appreciated the willingness of the families to help us learn and experience Japanese culture.

When the day came for the Revelstoke Secondary students to part with the families we had grown so close to and learned so much from, it was a dif� cult goodbye to make. Myself and the other Canadian students and teacher chaperones boarded the

bullet train at Shinjuku station, and departed for the very short, fast ride to the nation's capital.

Tokyo Disney, the � rst stop in the big city, was an amazing experience for all of us, and our teacher chaperones may have had the most fun of anyone. Tokyo Skytree gave us the view of a lifetime — the whole city from 634 metres in the air.

It was truly the greatest week of our lives to be able to experi-ence � rsthand the incredible Jap-anese culture, schools, language, art and so much more.

Now it's time for Canada to welcome the annual visit from the students of Ono-Cho, Japan, who arrived on Thursday, Feb-ruary 12. The inbound teenagers will have spent four days in our beautiful city, improving their English skills and exploring all that Revelstoke has to offer.

My family and I are lucky enough to be hosting two girls from Ono-Cho, who will have stayed at our home for � ve nights. Izumi (Izu) and Kaai will learn about Canadian history and culture, visit Revelstoke Sec-ondary School and participate

in a wide range of winter activi-ties such as skiing, sledding, and more.

The volunteer families that are hosting Japanese students this year are forging new relation-ships and friendships, strength-ening Revelstoke's ties with our Japanese sister city.

When asked about her favou-rite part of the trip so far, Izu replied “The welcoming fami-lies,” and Kaai answered sim-ilarly with “the kind people.” Other visiting students gave dif-ferent answers as well, such as the food and the school tour.

All hosting families will try to ful� ll the wishes of each stu-dent and what they hope to expe-rience and try here in Canada. We in Revelstoke welcome all of our Japanese friends to our beau-tiful city, and we hope they expe-rience the best parts of Canadian life. On behalf of the students and staff of Revelstoke Second-ary School, I would like to wish these students an enriching jour-ney, safe travels home, and we hope they share their stories with family and friends in Japan.

SPRING & SUMMER 2015

In October of 2014, I applied to become a mem-ber of the 86th British Columbia Youth Parliament (BCYP).

BCYP is an organization which connects 95 youth aged 16-21 in Victoria every year from Dec 27-31 to debate legislation that is put into effect throughout the year by the service projects and fun-draisers which we hold around the province.

As a member, I had the privilege to travel to the provincial legislature building in Victoria where I spent an incredible � ve days meeting great people and learning so many things.

We had the opportunity to tour the other parts of

the parliament buildings and government house and I gained debate experience and political understand-ing � rst hand.

Members who return to the organization in con-secutive years can hold positions on cabinet or shadow cabinet to help create the legislation that is proposed, or lead debate on it.

I am looking forward to being a part of the proj-ects which are run this year and would like to return next year.

I would like to thank Alan Mason and the City of Revelstoke for their support in sending me to BCYP. I would also like to invite any youth aged 14-18 who are interested in attending Southern Interior Youth Parliament to contact me at [email protected].

There was a big youth involve-ment at the Carousel of Nations, which took place on February 1 at the Revelstoke Community Cen-tre.

The event had a diversity of cultures and a wide range of ages taking part. There were many stu-dents participating in and observ-ing the event. There were crafts for young children and karaoke for everyone. Many booths were being run by youth at the event.

Among the food booths was an Aboriginal foods booth run by students from School District 19.

At the We Day booth, youth were selling bracelets made in Kenya and the funds made from them went to buying goats in East Africa. Love buttons were also being sold and the funds from that went to the same cause as the bracelets.

At another booth, students from Begbie View Elementary were selling bags from a women's cooperative in Bangladesh. The money went to social support and education. The students were also selling dolls and soap made in a small Indian village. The money from those went towards social support and education as well.

There are also many other

youth projects at Begbie View Elementary for good causes such as Project Warm, where stu-dents collect winter clothing and give it to those who need it. Stu-dents were also selling Ra� kis and bracelets made by mothers in Kenya. The money from each different colour of bracelet goes to a different cause. For example a blue bracelet might be raising money to go towards fresh water.

The youth involvement at the Carousel of Nations was amaz-ing. It was great that youth in the community had the chance to come together and get involved in multiculturalism at the Carousel of Nations.

The Grizzly’s season came to a heart-breaking end this weekend. Despite win-ning two more back-to-back home games, they couldn’t squeeze their way into a playoff position.

“It’s kind of bittersweet. We have been so strong lately, and I don’t think there was a better team in the league since the Christ-mas Break, so it’s unfortunate we couldn’t secure our spot in the playoffs,” said coach

Ryan Parent following Saturday night’s game.

Revelstoke started the weekend one point back of the Sicamous Eagles. They needed to � nish ahead of them in the standings because Sicamous held the tie-breaker. Instead, the two teams � nished the season tied in points, with the Eagles advancing to the playoffs because they had more wins.

Revelstoke found themselves at Sicamous’ mercy after losing 5-0 to 100 Mile House last Monday. That set the

stage for two more must-win games on the weekend.

On Friday, the Grizzlies took on the Kamloops Storm in front of a full building of excited fans. Revelstoke came out on top, and won 3-2.

Before the game began, the Grizzlies handed out three more awards. The � rst award went to Dean Cruickshank for the Most Dedicated Fan. Ray Speerbrecker was named Senior Fan of the Year. Finally,

Two of Revelstoke's minor hockey teams are battling for the league championships after winning their respective semi-finals this weekend.

The Bantam team defeated Summerland in a best of three series to advance to the league finals against Kam-loops in Tier 4 division. Rev-elstoke beat Summerland 8-5 and 4-2 to sweep the series.

Revelstoke and Kam-loops were separated by one point in the regular season. The best-of-three finals will take place over the next two weekend.

Revelstoke's Peewee rep team will be taking on North Okanagan in their finals. The team defeated Clearwater 9-3 and 8-1 over the week-end to sweep the semi-finals.

Revelstoke finished sec-ond in the Tier 4 division in

the regular season — well ahead of North Okanagan – however North Okanagan upset the division-winning Kelowna team to reach the finals. The final takes place over the next two weekends.

At the Atom level, the Revelstoke rep team won the Super League title, finish-ing at the top of the 11-team league witha 15-1-2 record. They start the playoffs this weekend.

the Grizzlies announced that Jeff Bochon was voted Fan Favourite.

After a scoreless first period, the Storm finally opened the scoring at 11:10 in the second. Revelstoke responded with a power play goal from Tyler Chavez Leech, assisted by Kyle Baron and Michael Roberts. The score was even at 1-1 going into the third.

Kamloops restored their lead at 11:45, but Revelstoke fired back and tied it up again with a goal from Josh Pilon three minutes later. Just as the game was about to go into overtime, Steven Fiust put one in to take the lead, and win the game for the Griz-zlies.

Meanwhile, Sicamous defeated the Spokane Braves to stay ahead of Rev-elstoke in the standings.

The Chase Heat were in town on Saturday as another massive crowd of nearly 600 came out to support the Grizzlies in their final game of the reg-ular season. They ended the season on a high note with a 4-1 win over the Heat.

The Grizzlies, along with the Rev-elstoke Minor Hockey players, and the President of the KIJHL, Bill Ohl-hausen, took a few minutes before the game to honour the late Larry Black, and remembered the legacy he left for the team and hockey in Revelstoke. Black died of cancer in Kelowna on Dec. 1 at the age of 66.

He was a member of the Revel-stoke Selkirks senior men’s team and coached minor hockey here. He went on to be the general manager of the Revelstoke Grizzlies, winning the KIJHL championship in 1997-98. He moved up to become a scout for the Vernon Vipers, where he was part of two national championships. Later, he became the assistant general manager

of the Salmon Arm Silverbacks.Grizzly player Steven Fiust was

then honoured with “Rookie of the year” of the Doug Birks Division.

The Grizzlies were first to get on the board at 17:19 when Pilon scored after a nice end-to-end rush. Shortly after, Roberts scored a second for Revelstoke. At 6:25 Carter Huber added a third, with help from Chavez-Leech. Chase made it onto the board at 5:18 to leave the score at 3-1 going into the third.

Roberts scored his second of the game at 8:05, with assists from Brady Mende, and Levi Morin. Chase couldn’t close the gap on the Griz-zlies, and the score was left a 4-1 final.

What may have been a celebration was dampened when news spread that Sicamous sent their game to overtime, clinching a playoff spot before the Grizzlies game was even over. That knowledge spread to the Revelstoke bench and was evident in the players subdued reaction to their win.

“We found out that we didn’t get in before the game was over, and we were shocked that the season was over,” said rookie forward Louie Fed-erico.

As the final buzzer went, the play-ers remained on the bench while Chase left the ice. They then skated over to goalie Aiden Doak’s net for a team huddle before skating around the ice and saluting their fans.

Coach Parent went on to talk about his thoughts on the season overall.

“We have had a great group of players this year, and they have came a long ways. 14 of them were affili-ated with Junior A teams, and 13 of them actually played in games, which was good to see,” Parent said. “I think we will have a bunch of them return for next season, and we have built a strong foundation to be even more of a force next year.”

Revelstoke Ski Club skiers had some great results in two locations over this past week. The FIS team were in Kimberly for a six-day event, where Revelstoke’s Domenic Unterberger, skiing for the BC Ski Team, was on top of the podium twice for two slalom races. Mitch Smith also placed strong, coming

in fourth overall in one race, second among the U18s. Teammate Jamie Park also did well, with a fifth place finish.

The Kimberly event was origi-nally scheduled to include a super G and a downhill race, which would have been the first downhill competition for some of our first-year FIS skiers. Unfortunately, the speed races were cancelled because of the rain and warm tem-

peratures. Organizers set up another sla-

lom race and then had to cancel the rest of the competition. Our FIS team is now training at Nakiska, preparing for a NorAm race next week.

Our U16, U14 and U12 skiers went to Sun Peaks over the week-end for a GS race. Revelstoke ath-letes posted a number of podium finishes as well as top-10 results.

Caroline Bouwmeester took first place in two events in the U14+ category, which allowed all rac-ers over 13 years old. Aleks Klas-sen took third place on Saturday and sixth on Sunday in the U14 cat-egory, and Alex Jay, our only U12 racer at the event, took two sixth-place finishes and ended up on the podium in third place on Sunday. Jenna Knight was seventh among the U14 girls on Saturday and sixth

on Sunday. “The conditions were excel-

lent over the weekend with cold, hard snow, and our kids faced some tough competition,” said head coach Ned Lazarevic. “They skied very well and we’ll con-tinue to work on technique to get ready for a number of important races coming up, including the Can-Ams, the Provincials and Whistler Cup.”

Revelstoke skaters were in fine form at the Okanagan Interclub Figure Skat-ing Competition Feb 13-15, 2015, bring-ing home four gold, four silver, and three bronze medals.

“Achievement is a great feeling and a positive experience for our maturing young athletes,” said head coach Nina Greschner. “It is terrific to see many of our skaters set-ting personal goals and achieving or reach-ing past those goals at competitions.”

Hosted by the Armstrong and Enderby Skate Club and held at Armstrong’s new Nor-Val arena, the event attracted skat-ers from clubs across the Southern Interior and from as far away as Whitehorse, Yukon Territory. Thirteen Revelstoke skaters put their skills to the test during the three-day competition.

Senior skater Makenna Howe led the charge on ranked events, receiving one gold and three silver medals. Alexis Larsen brought home both a gold medal and a bronze.

For dance performances, Jaimie Reyn-olds was awarded a gold medal and Alex-andra Robertson received a silver. Bronze medals were awarded to both Sophie Dor-rius and Jacqueline Cottingham. During assessed events, gold level performances were delivered by Jackie Bracken, Rhenna Secord, Karlie Beattie, Alexis Larsen, and Sophie Dorrius. Samantha Veninsky and

Ryan Howe got solid silver, and Lauryn Kline a bronze.

Andie Reynolds also demonstrated her skating abilities in two events.

“Learning skating techniques and train-ing is what we focus on at home,” said Greschner. “It is exciting to watch our skaters develop the mental approach to the sport needed to put their hard work to the test and deliver in an exciting and chaotic environment.”

Want to see the Revelstoke skaters in action? Come out Thursday, March 12, for Name that Movie, our year end ice show featuring movie-themed performances from our figure skaters, powerskaters, and coaches. Fancy yourself a movie buff? Test your knowledge by naming the four mys-

tery movies and enter to win a prize. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and the show starts at 6:00 p.m. Admission is by donation. Find us on Facebook for mystery movie hints and more details about the show.

And remember it is never too late to learn how to skate or improve your skating skills. Starting again in September 2015, the Revelstoke Skating Club will be offer-ing a variety of skate programs for adults and kids including Skate Canada Cans-kate and Starskate programs for begin-ner and developing skaters, Powerskate – a fast-paced program designed for hockey and ringette skater – and adult programs. Watch for early bird registration starting in June.

Leslie KingsnorthJones

Mr. Leslie Kingsnorth Jones passed away at Mt. Cartier Court Cottages, Revelstoke on the morning of February 7th, 2015 at the age of 93 years. A memorial reception was held at the Anglican

Church Hall on Thursday afternoon, February 12th with family and friends officiating.

Les was born in Maple Creek, Saskatchewan on July 21, 1921. When he was five years old he travelled with his family by covered wagon to Brooks, Alberta, wintered in a tent and continued the journey by Model T to Creston, B.C.

Les was in the Air Force during the war and was stationed in Gander, Newfoundland. After the war he was employed by the B.C. Forest Service throughout the Kootenays, with stationings in Creston, Canal Flats and Invermere. Les and his family lived in Arrowhead for a short time, before moving to Revelstoke in 1965. He was employed as a Clearing Inspector for the Keenleyside Dam. Les spent the majority of his working years in Revelstoke at the C.P. Rail Engineering office. He loved the outdoors and his horses.

Les is survived by his wife of 67 years, Merle of Revelstoke, B.C; children: Ronda (Gary) of Parksville, B.C., Erle (Maria) of Golden, B.C., Jim (Melanie) of White Rock, B.C. and Neil (Theresa) of Revelstoke, B.C. Grandchildren: Trevor, Nicole, Derrick, Jarred, Brittany, Kodi, Jaana and Mike. Great Grandchildren: Lindsey, Taylor, Tessa, Nathan and Eila.

The family would like to thank the Mt. Cartier staff and Dr. Cam MacLeod for their wonderful care of Les.
