Pair arrested for Tyler Myers murder # Police tape marked off the area where Tyler Myers’ body was found on Nov. 21, 2008. He died from a single gunshot wound. A 20-year-old man and 21-year-old woman have now been charged with first-degree murder.
Four years to the month
he was killed, police have
charged two people in the
murder of 22-year-old Ty-
ler Myers of Salmon Arm.
Myers died of a gunshot
wound on the evening of
Nov. 21, 2008, his body
discovered by a passerby
about 7:30 p.m. on a trail
on the grounds of Bastion
Elementary School.
On Monday of this week,
police arrested a 20-year-
old man and a 21-year-old
woman, both who were
under 18 years at the time
of the murder so can’t be
named under the Youth
Criminal Justice Act.
Both are residents of
Salmon Arm and both have
been charged with fi rst-de-
gree murder.
The pair appeared briefl y
in Salmon Arm Court on
Tuesday where the charges
were read out. They were
ordered to be held in cus-
tody until their next joint
court appearance on Nov.
20. The parents of the ac-
cused man and the mother
of the accused woman were
also present in the court-
room.
At a news conference at
the Salmon Arm RCMP
detachment Tuesday after-
noon, Insp. Gary Shinkaruk
of the RCMP’s E Division
Major Crime Section said
the man had been arrested
at his home in Salmon Arm
while the woman was ar-
rested in a public setting in
Vernon – both without inci-
dent.
Both were known to the
deceased, he said.
“We talked to the Myers
family – certainly it was
a very emotional time for
them as we can all imag-
ine... We told them who
they were, they were aware

of both the individuals.
The three individuals –
Mr. Myers and the two
charged, knew each
other. I won’t go into
the specifi cs of that
relationship; we’ll let
that come out in court.
Certainly the families
also knew each other
and I think that the
Myers family was sur-
prised at who has been
charged...”
Shinkaruk empha-
sized that the investiga-
tion remains active and
further charges could
be laid.
“Certainly we fi nd
often that once charges
are laid, some people
at that point may feel
safer or may have in-
formation they didn’t
want to really bring
forward for a variety of
reasons.”
Shinkaruk said he
would encourage any-
one who has any in-
formation regarding
the crime to contact
police.
The courtroom was
almost fi lled to capac-
ity with many young
people, some of whom
were expressing shock
at the identities of the
accused. Many said
they felt compelled to
come to court to try
and look the accused
killers in the eye.
Shinkaruk was asked
at the news conference
if the murder could
have been drug-relat-
ed.
He replied: “Tyler
Myers, a 22-year-old
Salmon Arm youth, did
not deserve in any way
to be murdered in 2008
or any time. The inves-
tigation, the details of
what motive or other
details are best coming
out in court, respecting
the charter rights, but
certainly, we’ll say the
three individuals did
know each other. We
don’t believe this was
a random murder. By
virtue of the fi rst-de-
gree murder charge we
believe it was a planned
and deliberate murder
of Tyler Myers.”
He said the investi-
gation went through
several stages. He
credited the Salmon
Arm RCMP Detach-
ment for its thorough
preservation of evi-
dence, initial investiga-
tions, interviews and
follow-up interviews.
The RCMP Southeast
District Major Crimes
Unit then joined the
investigation, which
Shinkaruk also credit-
ed for its work in mov-
ing the investigation
forward. This year, the
Unsolved Homicides
Unit took on the in-
vestigation from the
Southeast District and
has been working on it
full time.
“Certainly when
Unsolved comes on, it
gives the opportunity
to focus full time on
that... It allowed a team
of dedicated investiga-
tors to concentrate on
this,” he said, noting
that the earlier investi-
gations paved the way
for the arrests.
The murder took
place when there was
a function going on at
the elementary school,
Shinkaruk said, noting
that Salmon Arm is a
small, safe community
– and this crime was a
shock.
“It was after school
hours but there were
adults that were there...
It reinforces that when
people do murder in
public places, in open-
air places, it really does
put people at risk. This
happened in a trail on a
school ground. People
heard the shots when
they were at a school
function.”

# The Sturgis North organization intends to partner with the Neskonlith Indian Band to bring the motorcycle rally back to the Shuswap after it was moved to the Spallumcheen MotoPlex last summer.
MARKET FILE PHOTO
Sturgis North is returning to the
Shuswap in 2013.
A joint news release from Joan
Hansen, president of Sturgis North,
and Chief Judy Wilson, chief of the
Neskonlith Indian Band, was issued
Wednesday, Nov. 7, announcing that
Sturgis North and the Neskonlith
band will be hosting the 2013 Sturgis
North Annual All Make Motorcycle
Jamboree and Music Festival.
In a follow-up phone interview,
Hansen said the event will not be
in Salmon Arm but is proposed for
Neskonlith land closer to Chase – and
will be held in August, not July.
“Our feedback from our patrons
was they really wanted to have water.
We lost a lot of people to the different
lakes,” she said. “We want to have
more of a waterfront location. We
want people to have fun and not have
to leave.”
In July 2011 the motorcycle rally
and music festival was held on two
sites – the Salmon Arm Fairgrounds
and Neskonlith land in Gleneden.
This summer, it moved to the Spal-
lumcheen MotoPlex Speedway.
Hansen said a portion of the event
will remain in Spallumcheen.
“It was a tough decision, the mo-
toplex is a really great venue. There
are still going to be some events at the
motoplex,” she said, noting Sturgis is
on good terms with the owner.
When the event was held in Salm-
on Arm in 2011, it left a bad taste
in the mouths of some businesses.
Several were not paid for the services
they provided.
“We’re going to be getting some-
thing together with the people, once
we have the property secured... We
will sit down with the creditors,” Han-
sen said, adding that Sturgis North
would like to set up an account to pay
off debts owed.
Hansen said Sturgis set up a restruc-
turing company that advised them to
pay creditors reduced amounts. She
said she doesn’t agree with reduc-
tions, even though it will take longer
to pay people what they’re owed.
“Even if it takes five years, our
plan is to pay off all legitimate debt.
There was a lot of illegitimate debt,”
she added, contending that Sturgis
was over-charged for many services.
“The costs were $2.6 million,” she
said of 2011. “This year it was only
$700,000. That’s a lot of over-billing.
With that in mind, I think we’ll do
fine.”
She said the event hasn’t made
money yet, but similar events don’t
for the first four years. She pointed to
the Merritt music festival and the Live
Nation festival in Squamish.
“It’ll take a couple of years; it’s
not going to happen overnight. We’re
not going to aim for a huge festival –
we’re going to shorten the days and
bring the prices down.”
Asked about former Sturgis presi-
dent Ray Sasseville, Hansen said he’s
no longer involved.
“He’s pursuing his music and writ-
ing a book,” she said, explaining that
he is working on a recording label for
up-and-coming artists.
Wilson was unavailable for com-
ment.

Having enjoyed a taste of civic politics, Greg Kyllo is ready for the next level as BC Liberal candidate for the Shuswap riding.
Kyllo, a first-term councillor with the District of Sicamous, decided last Friday to run for nomination to lead the Shuswap rid-ing of the BC Liberal party – a position held by retiring MLA George Abbott since 1996 – into the May 2013 provincial elec-tion.
Others seeking nom-ination include former Salmon Arm Mayor Marty Bootsma, former Spallumcheen Mayor Will Hansma and Jor-dan Ross of Salmon Arm.
Along with being a municipal councillor, Kyllo is the co-owner and manager of TA Structures in Sicamous. Both Kyllo and the company feature prom-inently in the provin-cial government’s cur-rent BC Jobs Plan cam-paign. But Kyllo has a longer, deeper connec-tion to the BC Liberals (including his friend-ship with Abbott), which has, in part, prompted him to try his hand at provincial poli-tics.
“The Liberals are certainly free enterprise – It’s all about small business, and the rights of the individual,” says Kyllo, explaining what it is about the BC Lib-eral party that appeals to him. “Obviously it’s all about job growth, and I lived through the NDP-era through the late ’80s, early ’90s. It was just a disaster for our business.
“I think the Liberals have done a fantastic job and I want to see that they retain power. The Conservatives I certainly don’t see as a viable option….”
Kyllo says he actual-ly began thinking about running to represent the Shuswap earlier this summer, after he and his wife Georgina were approached by a number of individuals who thought he’d be a good candidate.
“We thought pretty long and hard about it and we initially made a decision about five weeks ago that we were not going to run,” says Kyllo.
Things changed, however, when Greg and Georgina attended the recent BC Liberal convention in Whistler. There, the Kyllos – un-beknownst to them – were chosen to receive the BC Liberal Party’s May Brown Award, an
honour bestowed upon party supporters for “contributions to the community, the prov-ince and the cause of liberalism…”
Asked what hurdles he sees ahead for the BC Liberals in the coming election, Kyllo acknowledged the pub-lic is still angry about the HST. But he says he sees the momentum of public opinion swinging back in fa-vour of a Liberal gov-ernment, something he believes to be essential to the province’s econ-omy.
Kyllo says that as much as he enjoys serv-ing as a councillor, he would be able to do
more for Sicamous, and the Shuswap, if elected MLA.
In the meantime, his
sights are set on secur-ing the nomination for the Shuswap riding.
Kyllo joins the race for riding

On October 31, 2012, BC Supreme Court Justice Bruce Cohen’s long awaited, 1,191 page, $26 million report, The Uncertain Future of Fraser River Sockeye, was released after almost a year-and-a-half of public hearings, the col-lection of some 2,000 exhib-its, the review of more than 500,000 documents and two time extensions.
While the report was very clear in stating that there was no single cause or “smoking gun” to explain the poor (2009) Fraser River sockeye salmon run, it did cover a wide range of issues includ-ing the negative impacts of warming oceans, climate change and contamination and development along the river, as well as the non-im-plementation of the Depart-ment of Fisheries and Ocean’s wild salmon policy. The re-port also states that “much remains unknown and more scientific research is need-ed.”
At a press conference fol-lowing the release of the re-port, Justice Cohen said that much more scientific re-search is needed and called on the government “to start
that work now, and not put it off because of budget con-cerns.”
Of the 75 recommenda-tions (to the federal govern-ment) contained within the report, 11 were focused pri-marily on the province’s salmon-farming industry, ad-dressing issues like govern-ment management, the loca-tions of open net-pen farms and the need for more re-search. The report says that Fraser River sockeye face a “likelihood of harm” from disease and pathogens on farms, especially in the Dis-covery Islands, located north-east of Campbell River, be-tween Vancouver Island and the province’s mainland.
“Disease can cause signifi-cant population declines,
and, in some situations – for example, if a disease were to wipe out a vulnerable stock of Fraser River sockeye – such effects could be irre-versible,” wrote Cohen. “I therefore conclude that the potential harm posed by salmon farms to Fraser River sockeye salmon is serious or irreversible.”
The report states that “the federal government should prohibit net-pen farms in the Discovery Islands... unless the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans is satisfied those farms pose at most a minimal risk to migrating sockeye.”
Implicit in the report is the implication that the DFO is caught in a conflict of inter-est.
On one hand it has a duty to protect wild salmon stocks while, on the other hand, is expected to promote farmed salmon. The report recom-mends that DFO be released from its conflicted mandate and that the protection of wild salmon stocks and the promotion of aquaculture be moved to a different depart-ments.
It also recommends the full funding and immediate
implementation of the gov-ernment’s 2005 Wild Salmon Policy.
Predictably, the BC Salm-on Farmers Association put their own spin on the report.
In a statement made by B.C. Salmon Farmers Asso-ciation board member Stew-art Hawthorn, the association said: “We’re very happy with Justice Cohen’s praise of the quality and quantity of our data,” adding that, “he didn’t ask us to stop farming, just to do more research, which we’re happy to do.”
A number of other recom-mendations deal with the need for increased research and monitoring of fish and habitat.
The Cohen report is a compelling document that deals with one of the most complex environmental problems B.C. (and Ottawa, due to the fact that salmon stocks fall under federal ju-risdiction) have ever faced. If the federal government truly wants to save B.C.’s wild sockeye salmon stocks, it is imperative they move quick-ly to implement the recom-mendations made by Justice Cohen in his report.
On Sunday many of us will gather around ceno-taphs and in city squares for solemn ceremonies paying tribute to Canada’s service men and women. We’ll hear words like sacrifice and hon-our, some of them uttered by politicians.
But for some veterans they’ll ring hollow.In 2006, Parliament passed the New Veterans
Charter that changed the way injured soldiers are compensated. Instead of a lifetime pension, indexed to inflation, veterans injured after that year, or who had their injury diagnosed since then, would get a lump sum settlement.
But some veterans, say Canadian soldiers injured in Afghanistan, and those suffering the lingering mental and emotional effects of their tour, are get-ting substantially less support than they would have received with the former indexed pension.
A study by Queen’s University last year con-cluded most disabled soldiers will receive only two-thirds the compensation under the New Veter-ans Charter than they would have received from the old Pension Act.
Recently Canada’s auditor-general criticized the Canadian Forces and Veterans Affairs for their shoddy treatment of injured veterans, saying the system to get them help is “complex, lengthy and challenging to navigate.”
Even in death, the indignities continue. A pro-gram that is supposed to contribute just over $3,600 to the funeral costs for destitute ex-soldiers has rejected more than two-thirds of funding requests since 2006. Even when approved, that money is still less than some social services departments will pay towards the burial of the homeless.
It’s one thing for Canada’s politicians to honour our veterans. It’s another to treat them with hon-our.

MAIL BAGYou can always tell
when the Conservatives have something that appeals to their base — take the long gun registry. Members of the government con-stantly inform us of what they have done to the registry. The repeal warranted a separate debate, with no limita-tions on time. By this standard, they are very, very embarrassed about the Chinese-Canadian free trade agree-ment. No debate. No boasting. No informa-
tion. Rather like the agreement itself.
Why do I have to listen to Rick Mercer to find out that there is a 15-year notification re-quired for cancellation of the agreement? NAFTA only needs six months.
Why are the Chinese demanding that every-thing be secret? If this was so good for every-one, as Colin Mayes and his sidekick from the People’s Republic of China imply, wouldn’t they be pa-
rading it around like they did with the gun registry? What do they have to hide?
Now Mayes informs us that we should be happy because Prince Rupert Port is investing in a wood pellet termi-nal. Are pellets the best use of our forest lands? Are our coal mines only profitable if we have temporary Chi-nese miners working there?
Trade can be good, but it can also be bad. Otherwise, Mr.
Mayes would be crow-ing about the good re-sults of the Opium wars, which forced China to accept opium in exchange for their exports, rather than the silver bullion they orig-inally demanded. If the only requirement of prosperity was exports, the copperbelt coun-tries of Zambia and the DRC would be super-powers. They can’t even afford roads.
Canadian oil can be refined and used here, and thus maintain and
rebuild our infrastruc-ture, pay our pensions, and provide healthcare, or it can be exported raw to China where it will build Chinese in-frastructure.
It can’t do both. Must we wait until our high-ways look like some-thing out of Mad Max... or Zambia?
Richard Smiley
Writer would prefer to trade governmentIn his opinion piece
on Nov. 23, Colin Mayes trots out all the usual buzzwords and hyperbole surrounding the issue of trade, in-cluding “vibrant econ-omy” and “prosperity” and other typical group-speak propagan-da. Mayes then cites various statistics re-garding the increasing volume of trade and concludes by stating that the Harper govern-ment is concerned with protecting the environ-ment through all of this.
Of course, it is the
Harper government which recently took all the teeth out of envi-ronmental oversight and legislation. And it is the Harper govern-ment, along with Mr. Mayes, who conve-niently ignore the fact that, despite the current unprecedented level of global trade and trade agreements, the stan-dard of living is in fact in decline in Canada, unemployment remains persistently high (while we import workers from China for mines in British Columbia), the Canadian economy
is lurching and creak-ing as though it is about to fall down complete-ly, Canadians have re-cord levels of personal debt, and the taxpaying Canadian middle class is being wiped out as jobs are exported to countries with much lower wages and labour standards.
Who actually bene-fits from all of this? I see no reduction in the fat compensation pack-ages for corporate CEOs, or for our politi-cians for that matter. There is nothing trick-ling down to the aver-
age Canadian, which of course is nothing new as trickle down eco-nomic theory is noth-ing but a fabrication used by the wealthy to keep the herd from stampeding.
No, the next trade agreement I wish to see in Canada is one where we trade our current “government” for one which actually cares about the average Ca-nadian, rather than con-tinuing to line the pock-ets of the one-percen-ters.

He sits in the com-
fort of his living room
chair, next to a win-
dow with a serene view
of Shuswap Lake. His
wife, Wendy, sits by
his side.
Dean’s life here is
calm and relaxed, the
only indication of his
involvement with war
is the name of one of
the two rescue dogs
that lie at his feet.
Dixie, is a subtle nod
to his days spent soar-
ing through the skies as
a navigator for Royal
Air Force bomber com-
mand, a time when he
was known as Dixie
Dean.
It is his story that
earned him an invita-
tion from by War Torn
Productions to appear
on the History Channel
series, War Stories. The Blind Bay veter-
an will be appearing in
two episodes, which air
this weekend – Bomber Command – Hitting Back and the second
called Bomb Command – Heading Home.
“I was touched when
they came to me,” says
Dean. “I thought people
had forgotten about all
that stuff. I didn’t think
anyone was still inter-
ested in what happened
back then.”
Dean was only
16-years-old when the
Second World War
broke out in 1939. Not
allowed to enlist until
his 18th birthday, Dean
jumped at the chance
to join the Air Training
Corps.
He was later called
up to RAF 51 Squad-
ron, at which time there
was a major shortage of
navigator-bombardiers.
“I was nervous,” he
says, “but I had a strong
religious background, I
had faith that I would
make it through.”
Dean says that many
of his friends were not
as lucky as him.
“We used to say
that once you made it
through six ops you
would finish your tour,”
he explains, “Most did
not make it.”
Dean completed 28
operations during his
first tour.
His final operation in
that tour had him head-
ing to Peenemunde,
located in North Ger-
many.
“Berlin was big, we
wouldn’t dare touch it,
but when they began
bombing London, well,
we had to show them
that they could not do
this.”
The operation was
considered successful.
About 600 RAF, Ca-
nadian and Australian
aircraft left on Aug. 17,
1943. Their goal was
to destroy the factories
that were producing
V1 doodlebugs, V2
Rockets and unmanned
bombs.
“It was quite a sight
you know,” says the
veteran. “We were fly-
ing to Berlin to destroy
the factories making
flying bombs as well as
their launch sites, and
here they were flying
past us on their way to
London.”
On the way there,
Dean describes how
some pilots attempted
to shoot the bombs.
“This, I guess, was
not a very smart thing
to do because it would
have been so easy to
cause them to explode
and possibly take out
the pilot as well.”
If the pilots were
able to knock the fly-
ing bombs off course
it would cause them to
fall from the sky and
explode on the ground
below.
Either way, the fly-
ing bombs were faster
than the planes, and in
most cases the pilots
were not able to tar-
get the bombs success-
fully.
This, he adds, was
one of his biggest and
most nerve-racking ops
he flew.
Winston Churchill
had delivered his or-
ders, Dean explains.
“He said that if we
did not complete the
mission that night, we
would be sent out the
next, and the next and
the next until we were
successful.”
About 600 planes
in total were sent out,
of which 41 did not
return.
“Each plane had at
least a six-man crew,”
says Dean. “When one
plane went down, we
lost six men.”
During the Second
World War, 55,000 air-
men lost their lives, he
points out.
After Dean finished
his tour, he took a short
break, filling in the
time by teaching navi-
gation and bombing
techniques.
He was soon asked
to return to the skies,
this time as the head of
his squadron.
Dean often filled in
for other navigators,
who had been grounded
for some reason. These
were unsettling mis-
sions at times, he adds.
Sometimes he went
on operations with well-
trained veterans, but
in other cases he flew
with “first timers.”

# Ken “Dixie” Dean was home on leave in Eastleigh, England, in 1943, after his first tour of duty with the Royal Air Force, when he read in the local newspaper that he had been awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross.

That magical time of year
is quickly approaching and
the Cedar Heights Community
Center is deep into the planning
process for their annual bazaar.
Locals will soon be able to
put a dent in their Christmas
shopping list Saturday, Nov.
24, with some very unique
gifts, many of which are locally
made.
Take along a little extra
money to pick up some of the
scrumptious holiday baking that
includes everything from home-
made pies and cookies to pero-
gies. This can save you hours of
slaving over your own stove and
free you up to enjoy the season.
If you cannot make the entire
event, or know just what you
will be looking for, you can
place a baked good order ahead
of time and stop in to pick it up
at the sale. Guests will also be
able to buy delicious homemade
soups and buns for a satisfying
lunchtime break.
For more information, call
Barb Cotterill at 675-5308.
The bazaar runs from 9 a.m.
to 2 p.m. and tables are still
available by calling Agnes at
250-675-3102.
“On the plus side, it
seemed to give the new
guys a sense of confi-
dence to be flying with
someone who had been
there, done that.
“They thought we
would keep them out
of hot water,” he says.
“However, it didn’t
matter how much expe-
rience you had, if you
got hit, there wasn’t
much you could do.”
Dean completed
some 14 to 18 more
operations before the
war came to an end
and he was able to re-
turn home.
Towards the end of
the war, he was invited
to Buckingham Palace,
where King George V1
presented him with his
Distinguished Flying
Cross.
“A friend and I
went to see The King’s Speech not too long
ago,” laughs Wendy. “I
told her that Ken met
him and she was kind
of shocked.”
Wendy maintains
the importance of re-
cording the war stories.
“Once we lose our
veterans, all this his-
tory will be gone with
them.”

A16 www.saobserver.net Friday, November 9, 2012 Shuswap Market News
The Shuswap Lake Integrated Planning Pro-cess (SLIPP) was initi-ated in 2007 and after three years a strategic plan was developed with three basic goals that address the need for protecting water quality, and ensuring that both development and recre-ational experiences are sustainable. Since the plan was created, SLIPP has focused on monitor-ing water quality, im-proving compliance and enforcement and resto-ration of foreshore habi-tat. This year, efforts have begun to develop a recreation management plan for Shuswap, Little Shuswap, Mara and Ad-ams lakes.
It is an ambitious project, with goals that include providing a vi-sion for how recreation-al resources will be managed and determin-ing objectives for infra-structure needs, zoning, use thresholds and mon-itoring. Key to the proj-ect is the use of what is called a “Recreation
Optimization Manage-ment Model,” which provides a guide to un-derstanding the Shus-wap’s current recre-ational management system. The model iden-tifies the supporting en-vironmental, economic and cultural conditions; the existing activities such as boating, camp-ing, and fishing and the recreationists, including both permanent and sea-sonal residents, and visi-tors.
The first step for de-veloping a recreation plan for the Shuswap has been the preparation of a background report or “situation analysis.” This report, completed in spring 2012, is now available on the SLIPP website: www.slippbc.ca.
There exists an overly complex management structure, with four lev-els of governance: local, provincial, federal and First Nations. At the lo-cal level, there are three regional districts and three municipalities. Because of many, inter-secting levels of govern-ment, coordination of recreational services is restricted, which results in a barrier to sustain-able management.
There has been a sig-nificant growth in tour-ism revenue in the Thompson-Okanagan region, which includes the Shuswap, as the sta-
tistics show a 55 per cent increase in hotel revenue over the last 10 years. However, the data from the Salmon Arm Visitor Centre shows little change over the last five years, with most of the visitors being lo-cals, followed by the next largest group from B.C., then Alberta, fol-lowed by Europe.
Of all the activities that take place on the lakes, power-boating is both the most popular and the most conten-tious. However, statis-tics show a decline in boating, with fewer camping permits sold to those arriving in boats in the Shuswap Lake Marine Park. The statis-tics also show a decline in the visual tally of houseboats visiting park sites from a peak of 13,565 in 2005, and a decline in the number of commercial houseboats registered with BC Parks from 225 in 2006 to 178 in 2011.
Although there has been one informal boat count by Shuswap Lake Watch in 2010 that showed a high number of boats during the July long weekend, there is a lack of any hard data on the quantity of boats on the lake. While the re-port does identify the 11 commercial marinas and notes there are 40 smaller, private marinas, it does not describe how the 1,704 existing moor-age spots are likely filled to capacity. Nor does the report provide any data about the huge number of buoys that were placed in the lake prior to the new bylaw coming into force this October.
There is scant data on non-motorized water recreation, although there is anecdotal infor-mation about an increase in canoeing, kayaking and paddle boarding. Statistics do show that both provincial park camping and fishing
numbers have remained fairly consistent, al-though there has been a sharp decline in private campgrounds.
The report provides no shortages of issues that need to be ad-dressed, including con-flicts from overcrowd-ing, noise pollution, limited lake access, lim-ited infrastructure, in-sufficient enforcement, a lack of research and the impacts of high- speed boats on shore-lines and habitat. In ad-dition, concerns contin-ue to increase regarding houseboat greywater ef-fluent, agricultural run-off and the impacts on natural ecological val-ues. Missing from the report are the mounting concerns about the im-pact of motorized recre-ational vehicles on ri-parian areas adjacent to the lake.
This past summer, two students collected survey information from both residents and visi-
tors to address the gaps and provide more data for the planning process. This survey will be available online (at slip-pbc.ca) for local resi-dents to participate in until the end of Novem-ber. If you care about the future of the lakes
and recreational experi-ences, please take the survey and provide in-put on the draft plan. There will be more op-portunities to provide input next spring, as completion of the plan is expected in the fall of 2013.

A wealth of young
talent will be featured
in the next Songwrit-
ers Showcase presented
Nov. 17 by Kelly Hop-
kins & Silvercreek Mu-
sic.
The show, to be held
at 7:30 p.m. at SAGA
Public Art Gallery will
be hosted by tried and
true singers, songwrit-
ers and performers
Richard Owings and
Murray MacDonald of
One Camel Short.
As One Camel Short,
MacDonald and Ow-
ings have created a rep-
ertoire of original pieces
and arrangements that
explore musical cross-
roads from around the
world.
Their concerts and
their new CD take lis-
teners on a rocking
musical journey which
might begin with a
homegrown song of
the Canadian Prairies,
then jump to a Bulgar-
ian handkerchief dance,
followed by a sliding
snake oil blues or brand
new fi ddle tune, and
perhaps fi nishing up in
a sultry groove that may
make you want to belly
dance.
The pair have been
performing and record-
ing together for several
years and their show is
an eclectic mix of mu-
sical styles and genres
guaranteed to get your
toes tapping.
This, the third show-
case in the fall series,
will also include the in-
credible talent of several
young, up-and-coming
artists.
Shuswap Idol singer-
songwriter winner Jesse
Mast, Megan Abel, the
winner of the “Songs
for the Shuswap” junior
category and a fi nalist in
the “Our Kids Have Tal-
ent” contest, and per-
forming songwriter and
recording artist Aimie
Laws will add their fl air
and fl avour to the mix.
Mast, who recently
moved to Salmon Arm
with his family, picked
up a country fi ddle eight
years ago.
Four years ago, he
learned the guitar and
began singing, writing
and performing within
the last year.
He will and Abel will
perform as a duo.
Hopkins is excited
to be presenting these
young performers and
designed the singer-
songwriter series to
showcase the wealth
of talented people cre-
ating and performing
their own music. The
intimate gallery setting
adds a fun, house party
feel.
The show starts at
7:30 p.m. Tickets at $10
are available at Acorn
Music, or at the door.
A portion of the pro-
ceeds will go to the
Second Harvest food
bank. Gourmet refresh-
ments will be available
by donation.

While most of their
8,000-kilometre bike
tour across Canada was
about warmth, welcome
and music, Mike Shaver
and Steph Webster felt
humbled to be follow-
ing the route of Terry
Fox.
The couple, who per-
form as a Million Dol-
lars in Pennies, dipped
their bike tires in the
Pacifi c Ocean near a
memorial to the coura-
geous young cancer vic-
tim in July. They did the
same when they arrived
at the Atlantic after a
four-month concert tour
fuelled entirely by pedal
power.
Speaking from Cow
Bay, N.S. last Friday,
the couple described
their delight in the tour.
“It’s the best thing
I’ve done in my life,”
raved Webster.
Any preconceived
fears about the long
journey were laid to
rest, added an equally
enthusiastic Shaver.
“The only downside
is I found it to be ad-
dictive,” he says. “If
that looked daunting
and wasn’t, what more
could be possible?”
Webster says once
they cleared Rogers
Pass, she thought she
could do anything.
That, in part, could
be a result of their close
encounter with a bear
that had them penned
in an outhouse for 20
minutes.
“He was just so curi-
ous, he came up around
the outhouses and no
amount of banging,
yelling or honking
would move him,” says
Webster. “We fi nally
got to our bikes and just
bolted.”
The reception the two
received on the rest of
the tour was far more
heartening.
“All the way across
the country we expe-
rienced so much kind-
ness, welcome and
warmth,” Webster says.
“It defi nitely restored
our faith in humanity.
It’s amazing the gener-
osity we experienced, it
was so overwhelming.”
Shaver describes the
experience as absolute-
ly mind-blowing and at-
tributes it to the emails
announcing their next
destination, asking if
anyone knew anybody
who would put them
up, give them a place to
set up their tent, or feed
them, in exchange for a
concert.
“People would pass
on messages to their
friends,” he says. “We
met people who were
friends of friends, or
friends of friends of
friends.”
Shaver says he was
overwhelmed by the
willingness of people
to become part of their
experience.
“I think the notion
of a bike is instantly
disarming and we were
travelling as a male-
female duo,” he says of
people’s willingness to
accept them and their
“biker” gear. “And it’s
kind of hard to look
tough and menacing
when you’re wearing
tights.”
The couple played
music, tidied up after
themselves as much as
possible at each place
they stayed and left a
CD with a thank you
note.
The couple’s on-road
experience was also
stellar.
“The big transport
trucks were the most
courteous by far; we
have nothing but good
things to say about
them,” says Webster,
noting the weather co-
operated for most of the
journey.
As of last Friday a
Million Dollars in Pen-
nies had played 24
shows, with three more
on the slate.
The couple will board
a train in Halifax on Fri-
day for a more relaxed
journey home.
Accepted to VIA
Rail’s onboard enter-
tainment program in
lieu of tickets, Webster
and Shaver will play
two 45-minute sets
daily all the way back to
Vancouver.
They arrive in the
Shuswap Saturday,
Nov. 17 and, as prom-
ised, perform in concert
that night at Sunnybrae
Hall.
Vancouver singer and
guitarist Missy Don-
aldson will open for a
Million Dollars in Pen-
nies at 8. Tickets at $15
are available at Synergy
and Acorn Music.
Following great footsteps

Saturday, Nov. 17.
“If you’ve enjoyed
shows one, two and
three, you will be de-
lighted with this ‘best
of’ show that combines
songs from all of the
previous shows,” says
Hayride creator Lori
Risling. “If you’re new
to the Louisiana Hay-
ride live musical expe-
rience, this will be the
perfect show to see for
your fi rst time.”
All the original char-
acters are back, includ-
ing Patrick Ryley as
Hank Williams, An-
drea Anderson as Patsy
Cline, Adam Fitzpat-
rick as Elvis and Gil
Risling as Roy Orbi-
son.
In addition to their
wonderful songs, you’ll
love the other classic
tunes in the show.
Rounding out the en-
semble are musicians
William Brookfi eld
and Mike Melnichuk.
Lori will again pro-
vide interesting anec-
dotes about the original
singers, such as Elvis,
who was told he prob-
ably shouldn’t pursue a
career in singing.
Tickets are available
at Wearabouts on Alex-
ander Street and Touch

Piccadilly.

JAMES MURRAY/MARKET NEWS
Author tells tales of her solitary life
Chris Czajkowski has
lived in the far reaches
of the Chilcotin for al-
most 30 years, where
she has hand-built all of
her cabins, often with
no help at all.
Resourceful and
fi ercely independent,
Czajkowski has become
one of B.C.’s favourite
wilderness dwellers.
She will share her ex-
periences and introduce
her new book, Ginty’s Ghost: A Wilderness Dweller’s Dream, at
SAGA Public Art Gal-
lery at 7 p.m. Friday,
Nov. 9.
In 2006, Czajkowski
bought a derelict home-
stead at Ginty Creek.
Although there is rough
road access into this
property, it is still quite
remote.
Her new book is
Czajkowski’s account of
settling into this homes-
ite, which previously
belonged to Ginty Paul,
an eccentric recluse
with whom Czajkowski
became quite intrigued.
Accounts of Ginty
vary greatly. Some lo-
cals remember her as
a cheerful woman, al-
ways laughing, while
others feared her vola-
tile temper.
This fascinating
character comes alive
as Czajkowski inter-
sperses her own expe-
riences with excerpts
from Ginty’s letters and
documents, as well as
accounts of this peculiar
woman from friends
and neighbors.
Ginty’s Ghost is a sto-
ry about two unconven-
tional women who have
lived remarkable lives,
immersed in B.C.’s
spectacular wilderness.
Performers roll out best of the Hayride
# The gang’s all here as Gil Risling, Adam Fitzpatrick, Andrea Anderson, Patrick Ryley, Wil-liam Brookfield and Mike Melnichuk are ready to perform in the Best of the Louisiana Hayride.

Optometrists take on diabetes
According to the Canadian Diabetes Associa-
tion, more than three million children and adults
in Canada alone have diabetes. That’s more than
10 per cent of the population.
People with diabetes are at increased risk for
eye complications, and most people with diabetes
will get some form of retinopathy, a disorder or
deterioration of the retina. People with diabetes
also have a higher risk of blindness than people
without diabetes. The earlier these problems are
diagnosed, the more successful the treatments can
be.
To aid in this fight, optometrists from Shuswap
Optometric Centre, Dr. Robert Allaway, Dr. Alan
Ewanyshyn, Dr. Tracy Thompson, and Dr. Lauren
Koch are joining with optometrists across the
country to raise awareness of this problem and its
treatability. Throughout November, Shuswap Op-
tometric Centre will be providing a variety of edu-
cational and awareness building efforts for pa-
tients in the hope of diagnosing this disorder be-
fore it affects their sight.
“You will see this topic featured on our website
at www.shuswapoptometric.ca as well as our
Facebook page as we try to reach as many of our
community members as possible,” says Dr. Alla-
way of Shuswap Optometric Centre, with offices
in Salmon Arm and Chase. “This is a very pre-
ventable and treatable disorder and education is
our best weapon.”
Also during the month of November, Shuswap
Optometric Centre will be donating $5 for every
diabetic eye exam they perform and another $1 to
the Canadian Diabetes Association for each Face-
book “like” they receive on their fan page.
Dealing with stigma of dementiaSalmon Arm families
living with the impact of dementia are also cop-ing with stigma, accord-ing to a new study.
Nearly three-quarters of people with demen-tia, and 64 per cent of family caregivers, be-lieve there are negative associations for those diagnosed with demen-tia, says Alzheimer’s Disease International.
Another alarming sta-
tistic revealed in the re-port: 40 per cent of people with dementia say they have been treated differently.
The report puts a spotlight on stigma as a real issue that impacts individuals and families who are living with Al-zheimer’s disease,” says Michelle Hallgren, the local support and educa-tion coordinator for Salmon Arm and the
North Central Okana-gan for the non-profit Alzheimer Society of B.C.
A free local support and information group serves as a forum for sharing practical tips and strategies for coping with the disease. For more information con-tact Hallgren toll-free at 1-800-634-3399 or email mhallgren@al-zheimerbc.org.

The Columbia Shuswap Regional District (CSRD) is looking for volunteers in Electoral Area ‘F’ interested in joining their local Advisory Planning Commission (APC).
APC members work with the Area Director and CSRD staff in making recommendations to the CSRD Board on Planning and Land Use Management issues (community planning, land use, proposed planning bylaws and permits) within the Electoral Area.
APCs usually meet once a month depending on the number of referrals they receive from the CSRD Board. Members will be appointed to the APC for a term ending May 2015. Training will be provided.
Individuals from different areas and neighbourhoods within the Electoral Area who best demonstrate the following will be recommended to the CSRD Board of Directors for appointment:
• an interest and passion for sustainable community development;
• a desire to share knowledge and experience in a range of subjects relevant to planning and development (e.g. housing, agriculture, construction, parks, environment, youth, seniors, business, geography, engineering, education, arts and culture).
Expressions of Interest forms are available on the CSRD website (www.csrd.bc.ca) and at the CSRD offi ce.

Shuswap Market News Friday, November 9, 2012 www.saobserver.net A21
Salmon Arm resident Selina Metcalfe an-nounced last summer that after three years she could no longer be the go-to volunteer for car seat questions and seat checks.
Plans are in place to bring an instructor to
town to train a new batch of technicians who could take on this much-needed service for Salmon Arm and surrounding areas. In-structor Jen Shapka, with the Child Passen-ger Safety Association of Canada, has seen onl
three perfect seat in-stallations in the hun-dreds she’s checked. That rate of misuse is not acceptable.
Shapka is coming to Salmon Arm from Van-couver Island to teach a car seat technician (CRST) training course
to certify 10 new tech-nicians. The course is 2.5 days long and is scheduled to run on Nov. 23-25, culminat-ing in a free public seat check event to give the new technicians hands-on experience and local families access to qual-
ity help. The cost is $175 and includes all materials, fees, and personal liability insur-ance upon completion.
To register or for more information, con-tact Jen Shapka at cv-carseattechs@gmail.com.

Community forum on palliative careAn action plan for palliative
care will be a step closer to reality
following a Nov. 14 community
forum.
The delivery of palliative-end-
of-life care in the Shuswap has
been identifi ed as an area need-
ing improvement.
The forum will feature the re-
sults of a community survey that
was carried out in the summer, an
opportunity to share ideas on how
palliative care can be improved
and a discussion on next steps.
Organizers are hoping for a
good turnout at the Nov. 14 fo-
rum to be held at 6:30 p.m. at the
Prestige Harbourfront Resort.
“Sooner or later, we all die, so
we’re all potential consumers,”
says Dr. Adele Preto.

Movember prep # Martina Bopp of Martina’s Classic Barber Shoppe gives Salmon Arm SilverBack’s gener-al manager Troy Mick, defenceman Bennett Hambrook, marketing director Josh Gordon and head coach Scott Robinsona a quick lesson on the straight razor before applying it to Salmon Arm GM’s Richard Dahlen. Representing the Salmon Arm SilverStaches and the GM Super-Staches, the men were having their faces prepped Thursday to grow moustaches for the Mo-vember Canada prostate fundraiser and awareness campaign.
First time # SilverBacks forward Bryden Marsh celebrates his first BCHL goal during Saturday’s 2-1 overtime loss to the Nanaimo Clippers. The night before the’Backs defeated West Kelowna 4-2. The SilverBacks host the Surrey Eagles Friday and play Saturday in West Kelowna.
# Kelowna scores the first touchdown of the game for the Sun Devils de-spite the best efforts of #21 Luke Matheson of the Salmon Arm Peewee Colts Sunday in Kelowna.
It’s a wrap for ColtsThe Salmon Arm Pee Wee Colts
season came to a close Sunday on
the losing end of 13-6 score against
third-place West Kelowna. Each Colt
gave it their all, but the fuel tank ran
out in the second half. With a short
bench, many Colts had to play both
offence and defence the entire game.
This season was a developing year for
the team, who always played a strong
fi rst half.
The 2012 Peewee Colts, coaches
Mark Lindgren, Rob Seaman, Ron
Blackburn, Aronn Heckrodt, Shawn
Casimiri, Matt Bacon, and team man-
ager Bonnie House appreciate all the
parents for their support and cheers
from the sidelines.
The coaches also appreciate the
Colts themselves for always seeing
the fun side of football regardless of
the score.
Broncos face hungry LionsThe Salmon Arm JB Broncos
played in the fi rst-round playoffs
and defeated the Kelowna JB Drag-
on by a score of 36-12.
The Broncos’ offence started
slowing in the fi rst half but luck-
ily the defence did not and kept the
Dragons at bay. In the second half,
the Bronco offence woke up and
began to tally up some drives and
scores behind a strong power run
game led by tailback Jayden Mou-
rato.
With both a strong Bronco offence
and defence in the second half, all
the Dragons could do was watch.
The entire Bronco defence de-
serves mention but the play of Reil-
ly Jacques, Mathew Nesdoly and
Jacob Morland was exceptional
The Broncos now face the fi rst-
place and former 2011 BC Provin-
cial Champions, the Kelowna Lions.
The game goes Sunday in Kelowna.
Varsity Golds shut outIt was one of the toughest seasons
ever for the Salmon Arm Varsity
Golds.
The winless Golds were defeated
by the formidable Mt. Boucherie
Bears last Friday at the Apple Bowl
in Kelowna with a 41-0 score.
The Bears’ win completed an un-
defeated season in the Okanagan and
wrapped up what one sports reporter
termed, “a valiant but frustrating sea-
son” for the Salmon Arm team.

# David Shiner, Rachael Jeffery, Tina Schoenbach and Rob Sengotta watch some of the on-ice antics during the 17th annual Canadian Cancer Society’s Funspiel held Sunday at the Salmon Arm Curling Club.
After 17 years, it was once again a
sunny event.
The 17th Annual Canadian Cancer
Society Funspiel was held Sunday at
the Salmon Arm Curling Rink.
The theme this year was tropical
and many of the teams were dressed
up in grass skirts, leis and beach
attire.
A huge silent auction added to the
fun and fundraising, with items and
gift certifi cates coming from many
local businesses.
Thirty-two rinks participated in
this funspiel supported by team
sponsors, many of whom return year
after year.
The winning team was Masonic
Lodge # 52, made up of Doug
Ramsbottom – skip, Ron Brown –
third, Doug Toop – second, Gary
Carlson – lead.
The second-place fi nishers were
the Brian Maurer rink, and third
place was the Salmon Arm Savings
and Credit Union team.
Collectively over the past 17
years, thousands of dollars have
been raised in Salmon Arm, with
this event intended to:
•Fund continued research to
enable the discovery of new ways to
prevent, diagnose and treat cancer.
•Provide continued support for
programs that will enhance the
quality of life for those dealing with
the disease.
•Increase public awareness
through education of the risks of the
disease as about half of all cancers
are preventable.
•Enable continued access to
the Cancer Information line and
directory where everyone can get
current and credible information.
The curling club appreciates all
those who participated, donated
goods and supported the fundraiser,
including much gratitude for the
tireless volunteers of the Salmon
Arm Cancer Society for all their
hard work.

What does $1,000 a
month buy an MLA in
Victoria?
In the case of Kev-
in Krueger, MLA
for Kamloops South
Thompson, it’s a pad in
an RV lot for the fifth
wheel trailer that serves
as his home base when
he’s at the legislature.
Krueger claimed
$6,000 in accommoda-
tion expenses between
April 1 and September
30, 2012, according to
the MLA travel expense
documents released
Oct. 31.
While the last legis-
lative session ended on
May 31, Krueger said
he’s often in the capital
for other reasons — and
was on his way there for
a function as he spoke
to KTW.
“Even when we’re
not in session, we have
committee meetings,
caucus meetings, lots of
times when we have to
meet,” he said.
There are a few op-
tions for MLAs who
have to travel to Vic-
toria from other parts
of the province, each
which has a differ-
ent maximum amount
which can be claimed.
For those who rent
or buy a place to stay
in the capital, as Krue-
ger does, the monthly
maximum is $1,000.
While the rent on his
RV pad is more like
$1,400 in the summer
months, he said it drops
in the winter and the
amount averages out to
about $1,000 a month.
“I just go with that,”
he said. “It’s less ac-
counting and hotels are
much more expensive
for me.”
During the same
period, Krueger also
claimed $2,498 in per
diem expenses. MLAs
get a per diem of $61
per day while in Victo-
ria on legislative busi-
ness.
Krueger also claimed
$13,439 in general trav-
el expenses, and $2,376
in in-constituency trav-
el.
According to his ex-
pense summary, North
Kamloops MLA Terry
Lake claimed only
$5,959 in total travel
expenses for the same
six-month period.
However, that
amount doesn’t include
expenses racked up in
his role as Minister of
the Environment, which
are posted separately on
the province’s “open
government” website.
The most recent min-
isterial expense report
for Lake, from August
2012, shows he has just
under $20,000 in travel
expenses for the year at
that time.
Neither regular or
ministerial expense re-
ports include details of
where MLAs traveled,
how the got there, or
where they dined.

Making their mark # Haldane Elementary School has made their mark nationally by their efforts to go green. It was recently the first school in Canada to receive the Earth 7 Status for successfully complet-ing 7000 environmentally friend-ly projects. Jethro Morris and Kennedy Erbin, this year’s first two Official Green Kids Club members, hold up a banner rep-resenting their achievement.
Every four years people
from across the country and
around the world visit Roder-
ick Haig Brown Park to wit-
ness one of nature’s greatest
stories – the return of the Ad-
ams River sockeye salmon.
The Adams River Nature
Society (ARNS) is working
on a project to create an “app”
that brings the experience of
the sockeye salmon run into
the palm of your hand: a tablet
game with enriched and in-
teractive content that tells the
sockeye story.
The app will allow users
to virtually adopt a salmon
and take care of it from egg
to adult, through stages of its
perilous journey from the Ad-
ams River to the Pacifi c Ocean
and home again, using mo-
bile smart phones, tablets and
classroom smartboards.
The next big salmon run is
in 2014. To develop, deploy,
test and market the Adopt-A-
Salmon App, the project is
seeking funding. Last week,
ARNS received a $4,000 grant
for the project from the Shus-
wap Community Foundation.
The project has been taken
on by Toronto’s Small Change
organization and gifts to the
fund will be used to design
and develop the app, and pay
programmers and graphic art-
ists for their work.
Funds raised from the app
itself will be directed toward
the society’s ultimate goal of
acquiring the property located
next to Roderick Haig-Brown
Provincial Park in order to
protect sockeye salmon and
other species of fi sh and en-
hance fi sh habitat.

the rink.
Apologies are ex-
tended to those who
live in the proximity of
Art Holding Arena be-
cause when each game
was over the fans were
loud and proud.
Friday night, Nov. 2
saw the Grizzlies from
Revelstoke come to
town. So far this year
they’ve had the Heat’s
number but not on this
evening. In a battle be-
tween two teams that
highlighted fast skat-
ing and hard hitting,
the local side took a
5-3 victory.
Captain Kurtis
Johnson opened scor-
ing, assisted by Shelby
Kostyshen and Reece
Forman. The grumpy
bears got that one back
before Kostyshen got
one assisted by McK-
enzie Guardiero and
Johnson.
Johnson potted his
second goal in the sec-
ond frame, with assists
from Catlin McLeod
and Kostyshen. Rev-
elstoke scored to get
it close.
In the third period,
the Heat scored twice
and Grizzlies once.
Kostyshen got his sec-
ond goal, assisted by
Ryan Beach and Wade
Cline. Johnson com-
pleted scoring into an
empty net, assisted by
Forman.
Johnson got the hat
trick along with an as-
sist, while Kostyshen
tallied two goals and
two assists. Jacob
Mattes faced 42 shots
between the pipes.
On Saturday, Nov.
3 the Penticton Lak-
ers came to town to
face the Heat. Chase
got two first period
goals – the first by Re-
ece Forman, assisted
by McLeod and Levi
Chamberlain. The sec-
ond goal was by Ethan
Kalugin, assisted by
Aiden Silzer-Hooker.
There was no scoring
in the second period,
with Chase sandwich-
ing one in the third
frame between two
Laker goals, courtesy
of Johnson from For-
man and Kostyshen.
Devon Pearson faced
23 shots for the win.
The Heat play host
to the Kelowna Chiefs
on Thursday night,
Nov. 8, and then head
to Armstrong for a Fri-
day night tilt versus
the North Okanagan
Knights. The Heat siz-
zled all weekend and
currently are very hot
entertainment.
Heat live up to name in weekend action
Chase curlers first
pancake breakfast of
the season was so suc-
cessful, they already
have another one in the
works.
The Chase Curling
Rink will be hosting
their second pancake
breakfast of the season
on Dec. 2.
Volunteers will be
serving up food from
9 a.m. until noon, so
even the late risers can
swing on by.
Chase residents are
invited to come and
enjoy some tasty, lo-
cally-purchased food
and help support their
local curling club while
doing it.
The Chase curlers
would also like to ex-
tend a thank you to all
their volunteers who
had worked their fin-
gers to the bone during
their last fundraiser,
as well as their many
hungry patrons who
stopped by the curling
rink.
This event saw such
a successful turnout
that the club is now
planning to host the
event on the first Sun-
day of every month.

Debris coming to North America from the earth-quakes, tsunamis and nu-clear accidents in Japan in September 2011 is not ex-pected to be as bad as first
anticipated. Coun. Ken Jamieson re-
layed this information at a recent meeting of Salmon Arm council after attending a session at the Union of BC Municipalities convention last month.
He said the main part of
the debris will probably land on North American shores in the winter months of 2013/2014.
“It’s not as bad as expect-ed, but it is still causing a lot of concern,” he said, noting that a number of jurisdic-tions have come together to
deal with and monitor the potentially radioactive de-bris, including Alaska, B.C., the Canadian and U.S. gov-ernments, as well as U.S. states bordering the Pacific.
“The second thing is there’s no radiation showing up on any of the debris,
mainly because the explo-sions and break down of (nuclear) plants came after the tsunamis hit. Most is on the floor of the ocean near Japan. Volunteers up and down the continent’s coast are cleaning up.”
Last month, a Japanese
National Police Agency re-port confirmed 15,870 deaths, 6,114 injured, and 2,814 people missing in the aftermath of the earthquakes and tsunamis. Five million tonnes of debris is estimated to have gone into the ocean following the tsunami.

Rotary International is well known for the good works it does around the globe, various projects in many countries undertaken by local Rotarians and supported by monies from the Rotary Foundation. The Foundation is the monetary arm of the Rotary International, established to allow for a sustainable monetary resource to support projects Internationally; projects such as Polio Plus (to eradicate polio) and the building of schools, digging wells, sending Dentists and Surgeons to help in some of the poorer places and too many more to mention. Promoting Peace is a major goal of Rotary International and
towards this we have been involve in the Youth Exchange programme and the Ambassadorial Scholarship and Peace Scholar Programmes. Another International project is the exchange of vocational groups between countries to learn about how business is done in another culture. In the past it has been a group of business people from mixed vocations. The new focus will be to a single vocation within the group to allow for a more tailored experience.
This past September Shuswap Rotary was pleased to welcome our District Governor, Doug Everett and his lovely wife Jacquie. While he was
here he did us the honour of presenting a Paul Harris Fellow. This Fall we have presented several other PHF’s to members, past members and wives of members and have one more yet to present.
A Paul Harris Fellow – What’s that?
The work of Rotary both within our own country and in the world cannot happen on a continued basis without the Foundation. A Paul Harris Fellow is someone who has donated $1000.00 to the Foundation. As recognition they receive a Certi cate and a pin. For every $1000 after the initial donation they receive a PHF with a + designating the number of
times they have reached the Paul Harris Fellow level. Anyone can donate to the Rotary Foundation. It is usually done through a Rotary Club or a friend who is a member of a club.
Shuswap Rotary has
been a part of the Youth exchange since our beginning here in Salmon Arm. This year we are welcoming Emma Rosell from Sweden and have sent Derek St Onge to Cuenca Ecuador. Derek is looking forward to working with Dr Gene Tymkiw and his dental team when their group arrives for a Surgical/Dental Mission to the hill country above Cuenca.
November is Foundation Month
Thank you…Thank you to everyone who honked, waved or gave thumbs up on
October 24 at Alexander and Trans Canada Highway for our Polio Awareness campaign.
A special thanks to the gentleman who stopped to donate to the cause.
To date, Rotary has donated more than $1 billion U.S. towards the eradication of Polio.
Due to the work of Global Polio Eradication Initiative, more than seven million people, mainly in the developing world, who would otherwise be paralyzed are walking because they have been immunized against Polio.
A child is given the polio immunization in drop form.
Dr. Gene Tymkiw with his Dental Assistant Donna Cook at the Esperanza Medical and Dentistry Mission in Ecuador. The mission provides priority orthopaedic surgery and dental care in that country. Dr. Tymkiw will attend his third dental mission in Ecuador in February.

B.C. does about-face on tourism policy
Three years after the
B.C. government took
over international tour-
ism marketing to direct
post-Olympic efforts,
Premier Christy Clark
has put the tourism in-
dustry back in the driv-
er’s seat.
Clark and Jobs,
Tourism and Innova-
tion Minister Pat Bell
announced the creation
of a new Crown cor-
poration Monday in
Vancouver. They said
Destination BC will be
industry led and have
formula funding from
provincial taxpayers to
advertise the province’s
attractions outside the
country. Clark said she
spoke out as a radio host
against the government
takeover when it was
announced in 2009 by
former tourism minis-
ter Kevin Krueger. The
Council of Tourism
Associations expressed
“grave concerns” at the
time, when the indus-
try-led Tourism BC was
disbanded.
Bell said Destina-
tion BC will have an
increasing emphasis on
marketing in Asia. It is
to take over responsibil-
ity April 1, 2013, us-
ing currently budgeted
funds for the first year.
After that, the intention
is to base the budget on
a legislated percentage
of annual sales revenue.
Clark and Bell took
the first step to chang-
ing tourism marketing
in October 2011, with a
$1.1 million campaign
to promote B.C. ski re-
sorts. Half the spending
went to Ontario, and the
rest was split between
Seattle, San Francisco
and Los Angeles.
NDP leader Adrian
Dix tried to pre-empt
the expected announce-
ment last week, making
his own promise that
an NDP government
would return control
over tourism marketing
to the industry.

HILDEGARD HEGEL(nee Gorray)
March 30, 1927 - September 27, 2012It’s is with the deepest sorrow that we say goodbye to our beautiful kind Mother, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother, who slipped away quietly at home after a long couragous battle with cancer. She was born in Wenna-Eickel, Germany and came to Canada in May 1948 with her husband Herman and daughter Renate. Predeceased by her husband of 54 years Herman (1999) and her brother Eric Gorray (2001).
Left to chersh her memory are all her 8 loving children, Renate (Bruce) Logan, Laura (Laury) Haines, Margarete (Allan) Gouge, Jerry Hegel, Linda (Dan) Johnson, Ron (Sherri) Hegel, Ray Hegel and Rick Hegel; 13 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren. Also her good treasured friend Marianne and many friends and relatives in Germany.
We little knew that morning, that God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you. You did not go alone, for part of us went with you, the day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories. Your love is still our guide. And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same, but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link gain.
