BARRY COULTERKimberley resident Robert

Nogier is a truck driver by trade, and an actor by vocation.

Recently Nogier had the chance to exercise his both his actor’s chops and his demonic side, appearing as a supporting character in a new TV series,

which debuted last week in Canada on the independent station CHCH on April 1, and on Syfy in the U.S.

The show, “Wynonna Earp,” is based on the comic book se-ries by Beau Smith.

Nogier spoke to the Towns-man from the road, days before

the premiere of “Wynonna Earp,” on Friday, April 1. He ex-plained the show’s basic prem-ise and main character’s trait, being careful to avoid spoilers.

Every time an heir to the name of legendeary wild west lawman Wyatt Earp appears, all the villains that were killed by

Wyatt Earp back in the 1800s come back to raise a little hell — literally.

“The Earp heirs have to send them back to hell with a special gun, called the peacemaker,” Nogier said.

Back to Hell, you demonsKimberley actor takes on supporting role in new series “Wynonna Earp”

BARRY COULTERGuitar legend George Thorogood will be very

much in the house at Western Financial Place Sunday, April 24, but at the moment we’re keep-ing his location secret.

“I’ve sworn an oath to the government not to give away the whereabouts of my location,” he joked, “but I didn’t say which government.”

The inspiration and energy of Thorogood’s music and shows comes from the Blues, not least the Chicago Blues of the legendary artists of the Chess record (which Thorogood has paid tribute to on his most recent album 2120 South Michigan Ave, (the Chicago address of Chess Records).

Every Tuesday evening, the Kootenay Kings Arm Wrestling Club meets at the Byng to go head-to-head with fellow competitors to train, learn and develop the proper techniques — because brute strength doesn’t mean much of anything if the proper technique isn’t there. See Friday’s issue of the Daily Townsman for a feature story on the club.

Thorogood’s music is straight ahead and di-rect — there’s a direct throughline to Elmore James, Hound Dog Tay-lor, Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, et al, and he’s even incorporated Hank Williams and Johnny Cash into his covers. His original material — like 1982’s “Bad To The Bone” — helped put him at the top of the

pole.He was a popular fa-

vorite in the early ‘80s through radio exposure and the arena rock cir-cuit. But he has never gone away — he has re-leased albums of covers and original songs through 2011, and his legendary stage show is as incendiary as ever.

teryear — never more so, in the Townsman’s opinion, than when he cranks up the slide gui-tar. Are we going to hear lots of that in his Cran-brook show.

“I sure hope so,” he says.

For slide guitar, he tunes his guitar to an open chord — open D or open G.

“You know what’s in-teresting: the Blues cats I’ve worked with — like Hound Dog Taylor and Robert Lockwood — when you tune it open like that they always call it ‘Spanish.’ I don’t know why they call that way — you’re either tuned to ‘natural’ or ‘Spanish.’

The Blues, of course, was a great influence on the great music of the 1960s and ‘70s. The Townsman asked Thorogood if the Blues was still a vital force and influence in today’s music.

“It still is, but it’s shrinking, and shrinking rapidly,” he answered. “Two summers ago we did a couple of shows with Buddy Guy — it was right after B.B. King had passed away — and we all lined up in a hall-way when Buddy came

to do his show and ap-plauded him. He was very touched by this and everything, and he asked ‘why are you doing this?’ We said B.B. King just passed away, and passed the torch — you’re the number one guy now. You’re the top Bluesman left on the planet.

“The best blues gui-tarist outside of Buddy Guy is probably Elvin Bishop. The best Blues harp player is probably Charlie Musselwhite at this point, and the best Blues singer next to Buddy Guy is probably John Hammond.

“There’s only a hand-ful left who really can deliver. And Buddy Guy is the last of that era, that time and genre of au-thentic Blues cats. I wouldn’t say it’s gone, but it’s dwindling. Taj Mahal can play the Blues as well as anybody, but he can play anything.”

“They have these Blues societies — but they’re more of an inter-pretation of the Blues, and homage to the Blues, as opposed to the real deal like Buddy Guy is.”

But when George Thorogood and the De-stroyers hit the stage,

though, Blues power is as fresh as ever.

It’s fresher,” Thoro-good says, “because you get new people watch-ing you play every night, who’ve never seen us play. There’s a lot who have seen us before, but the majority haven’t and will never see us again. So that does keep it fresh — you keep the regular customers happy, and turn on the new custom-ers and hope they come back next time.”

Thorogood is re-nowned for his intense, high energy perfor-mance and an intense touring schedule.

“I’ve always appreci-ated the value of a good night’s sleep.”

So we won’t see you out in the bars after-wards, out partying?

“The party will be on the bandstand,” Thoro-good assures us.

George Thorogood (lead vocals and lead guitar) and the Destroy-ers (Jeff Simon – drums, percussion; Billy Blough – bass guitar; Jim Suhler – rhythm guitar; Buddy Leach – saxophone, piano) take the stage at Western Financial Place in Cranbrook on Sun-day, April 23, at 7:30 p.m.

INVITATION TO BID

The Kimberley Trails Society is inviting qualified persons to submit expressions of interest for the following project:

Construction of a Flow Mountain Bike Trail in the Bootleg Mountain Recreation Site

Approximate Length: 5400 m

Brief Description: This is a downhillprimary “flow” trail primarily aimed at intermediate mountainbike riders, with options for more experienced riders. Construction will include approximately 70 features including berms, jumps and tabletops. Preliminary design and flagging has been done as part of the Bootleg Trails Master Plan; detailed design will be the responsibility of the contractor, in consultation with the Kimberley Trails Society and Rec Sites & Trails BC.

The project is expected to commence Summer/Fall 2016. To obtain a more detailed information package, send an email to [email protected] .

“I play one of the rev-enants, as they’re called — the demons — called John.

“I do get killed off to-wards the end of the season. But there’s a chance my character can come back, because they do flashbacks over the years to other eras.”

Melanie Scrofano plays Wynonna Earp — the great-granddaugh-ter of Wyatt Earp.

“She’s very reluctant to be the next heir — she doesn’t want to have nothing to do with it,” Nogier said. “She

doesn’t come from a nice family, she had a tragedy in her youth — I can’t say what that is, because it’s part of the show — but basically she’s a bad girl, she grew up living on the street. She’s not who you’d expect as a hero-ine.”

The show has plenty of action, plot twists, and its share of the good old gore — sounds like it was a blast to be part of.

“Literally a blast, for my character,” Nogier said. “We spent four days filming the scene where I get blown up. But like I said, we have to be killed by Wyatt Earp’s gun. A lot of us get hurt, maimed, somewhere along the line, but even when we get shot with Wyatt Earp’s gun we’re not re-ally killed, we’re just sent back to Hell.”

Nogier added that the previews of “Wyn-onna Earp” have been great. Reviews online tend to agree.

Nogier said he’s lived on and off in Cranbrook

LocaL NEWS

For the townsmanTwo vehicles, a trailer and a tree were all part of

a serious game of bumper cars when a 50-year-old Cranbrook woman decided to look at her phone while driving.

On April 5, at about 4:45 p.m., Cranbrook RCMP received a call of an accident on 14th Ave-nue where a vehicle had ended up on the front lawn of a residence.

The female driver had been travelling north on 14th when she looked down at her cellphone to see the incoming call. While looking at her cell-phone she struck a parked vehicle. The airbags in the vehicle were working at the time and de-ployed. The vehicle then careered across the road, hit a second vehicle, and ended up next to a travel trailer.

The driver was not seriously injured but the potential was there for serious injury, to not only herself but others in the vicinity, RCMP reported in a press release Wednesday.

“14th Avenue is a busy street at any time of day but during rush hour there is the potential not only for other vehicles but young children and students to be in the area and on the sidewalks.”

Cranbrook RCMP would like to remind motor-ists that distracted driving is one of the leading causes of motor vehicle crashes and deaths.

“Leave the phone alone!”

Accident shows the dangerous reality of distracted driving

since the early 1980s — he and his wife moved back to Kimberley about a year ago. He talks about he got into the acting game — an original childhood ad-venture.

“The first thing I ever did was when I was nine years old — I was a run-away, actually. I went to went to sneak on a boat going to Vancouver Is-land, and ended up

going to Gibson. Where I wound up doing some background work on “The Beachcombers.”

“After that I did mostly background work, with the odd stunt here and there. I worked on ‘Wise Guys,’ ‘21 Jump Street,’ ‘MacGyver’ — all those shows taking place when Vancouver was just getting started

in the film industry, be-fore it blossomed into what it is now.”

The 13-episode se-ries “Wynonna Earp” launched Friday, April first, and the first season will conclude June 24, 2016.

PREPARE YOUR HOME TO PROTECT AGAINST WILDFIRE

Owners of homes and properties that are not conscious of the risk, not only pose a threat to their properties, but also threaten neighbours and emergency services personnel. The reality is that if you don’t take basic steps to minimize the wild� re risk around your home or property, emergency services will focus their response on properties they can save -- the rest will have to fend for themselves.

There are plenty of public education tools available to provide advice on wild� re preparedness for individuals and homeowners, which can teach how to adapt to living with the threat of wild� re and how to work with your community and your neighbours to prevent loss of life and property in the event of a wild� re.

If you have questions about techniques, materials, and procedures, contact Cranbrook Fire & Emergency Services, provincial forestry personnel or local landscaping groups.

You can also visit http://bcwild� re.ca/Prevention/� resmart.htm or http://cranbrook.ca/our-city/city-departments/� re-and-emergency-services/� resmart/ for plenty of great information to help you prepare.

CELEBRATING 25YRS of building beautiful homes in the Kootenays

Georgie Award Winning Home Builder

Tre vor Cr awleyThe East Kootenay is

receiving eight new substance use treat-ment beds as part of a total of 73 that will be distributed throughout

the Interior Health Au-thority.

The new beds are part of a provincial plan to meet a 500 threshold through the Substance Use Spaces Initiative,

which is designed to support and enhance existing substance use treatment services.

“These new beds for Interior Health are part of a large provincial ini-

tiative to improve care outcomes for individu-als living with substance use challenges,” said Health Minister Terry Lake. “The beds will provide a safe and sup-

those requiring them.”There will be a com-

petitive procurement process, the first round of which will be posted to the BC Bid website for the creation of the 57 support recovery beds — which includes four support recovery beds to be provided by an Ab-original organization.

“We’re in the pro-cess of building a sys-tem to further support mental health and sub-stance use health-care teams across Interior Health,” said IH Mental Health and Substance Use Executive Director David Harrhy. “We cur-rently have 121 sub-stance use treatment beds and the addition of these 73 new beds will

allow us to better pro-vide integrated special-ized care planning and services in collabora-tion with clients and their families who have complex substance use issues.”

The second round of the procurement pro-cess will be for the cre-ation of the eight adult withdrawal manage-ment beds in the Koote-nay Boundary.

The third and final round will be for the creation of the four youth withdrawal man-agement beds.

The procurement process is expected to wrap up in summer and overall completion of all 73 beds is anticipated for spring 2017.

EK getting eight ‘substance use’ beds from IHportive environment for clients and are part of the Province’s commit-ment to add 500 addi-tional substance use spaces throughout Brit-ish Columbia by 2017.”

The breakdown of the 73 beds are as fol-lows: 57 will be support recovery beds providing clients a safe, sub-stance-free setting while they await residential treatment, return from residential treatment or a transition to a more stable lifestyle.

Sixteen more beds will be withdrawal (detox) management beds—12 for adults and four for youth going through the early stages of withdrawal from al-cohol or other sub-stances.

“Improving out-comes for mental health and substance use cli-ents is a top priority for Interior Health,” said IH Board Chair Erwin Mal-zer. “These additional treatment beds for both adults and youth repre-sent a significant im-provement and will help ensure appropriate levels of supports and services are available to

“These are my principles, and if you don’t like them...Well, I have others.”

Groucho Marx

T he odds have lengthened against a Donald Trump presidency after his Wisconsin defeat, and they were

probably already ten-to-one against. If he wins the Republican nomination, which is still very likely, he will al-most certainly face Hillary Clinton in the November election, and lose badly.

Or at least that is the orthodox calculation, for Trump is far behind Clin-ton with key voter groups like women, Latinos, Afri-can-Americans, and young people who bother to vote. But she is an uninspiring campaigner, she is the ultimate Washing-ton insider in a season where insiders are out, and there are a few skeletons that might come rattling out of her closet during the campaign. A big terrorist attack could also change the odds.

So President Donald Trump is still a small but real possibility. You wouldn’t be a fool to put a dollar down if somebody offered you twelve-to-one odds. That frightens a lot of people quite badly, espe-cially when it comes to foreign policy, for he is the loosest of loose cannons — or so it seems.

There he goes, starting a trade war with China, pushing Japan and South Korea to get their own nuclear weapons, trashing NATO, building a wall to keep Mexicans out, and closing the US border to all Mus-lims. He’s even in favour of torturing sus-pected terrorists. But would he really be as rash and ignorant in the White House as he is while in campaign mode?

All of his present positions are calculat-ed to appeal to the group whose support he must win to get the Republican nomi-

nation: “angry white men” who feel that they have been cheated of their right to a good job and a central role in American politics by unseen economic and demo-graphic forces and clever, wicked foreign-ers. The internal politics of the Republican Party is now largely dominated by their concerns.

Trump is so focussed on getting their support that he even op-poses the traditional Re-publican policies that have contributed to their mar-ginalisation and impover-ishment: free trade, low taxes for the rich, deep cuts in welfare programmes. And he gets away with it,

although no other Republican candidate would.

Once Trump wins the nomination, however, he must appeal to a broader au-dience to win the election, and he is a past master at changing his tune. Five years ago his publicly declared principles would have qualified him to run for the Demo-cratic presidential nomination — but, like Groucho Marx, he can come up with other principles in a flash when it serves his in-terests.

Take abortion rights: five years ago he defended women’s right to choose, last week he wanted to jail women if they chose abortion — and in the face of a pub-lic outcry, he rapidly retreated and said he just wanted to punish the doctors who did the abortions. Whatever the audience wants, it gets.

Once the Republican nomination is in the bag and the audience Trunp must ad-dress a broader audience to win the elec-tion, he will have to shift his ground, and he will do it. (The angry white men will just have to tag along, because they have no-where else to go.) Then, if he should win the election, he might change his policies

again. Who is the real Donald Trump?The answer is that there is no real Don-

ald Trump, in terms of policies and princi-ples. He will do anything and say anything to get what he wants — but beyond being elected president, it isn’t clear that he wants anything in particular. If ideologues frighten you, then you needn’t worry about the Donald.

What does legitimately frighten people about Donald Trump is his ignorance (which is not just a show to appeal to his current audience) and his impulsiveness. On the other hand, he is actually quite in-telligent, and as president he would have to rely on military officers and civil ser-vants who really do not want to uproot and overturn everything. Moreover, they can generally block or sabotage truly stu-pid decisions, if that becomes necessary.

The result might be a presidency with a foreign policy like Richard Nixon’s: para-noid, unscrupulous, but not ideological at all and not given to needless provocations on the international scene. The trickiest bit would be Trump’s first few months in office, because he has definitely fright-ened the horses internationally and they are getting ready to bolt.

It is hard to overstate just how fright-ened other governments are about Trump in the White House. The word “fascist” gets used a lot in private even by national leaders, and of course it used publicly every day by the mass media in most other countries. Perhaps the biggest danger is that America’s allies and enemies would react preemptively to his rhetoric without waiting to see what he actually does in of-fice.

So, on mature reflection, it really would be a very bad idea for Trump to become the president of the United States.

OpiniOn/EvEnts

C ynthia assured me that she would murder me at birth in cold blood should I mention her ambition to

write a novel, so, henceforth, I shall just call her CD.

Years ago, CD told me that she was in the process of writing the Great Canadian Novel and was therefore brushing up on her English grammar. She had even pur-chased a second-hand copy of ‘Eats, shoots and leaves’ by Lynn Truss. “There’s more gram-mar in that tiny book than you can shake a stick at,” she assured me, and I was duly impressed.

She also took a writers’ course at university but the professor ‘put her off’. “He didn’t like my subject matter and wanted me to write about city life,” she told me, “and I am definitely a country girl. “I’ve never lived in a city.”

She also paid for a correspondence course that must have cost her an arm and a leg but didn’t help her at all. “Whenever I submitted a piece,” she explained, “they swore that I was brilliant. Everything that I wrote was graded as A Plus and so, I rea-soned, if they think that my work is that good, they themselves must be awful. Con job!” she explained ruefully then, appar-ently, dropped the whole topic and took piano lessons.

Fortunately, I never had to suffer the vicissitudes of CD’s music but, suddenly,

she is once more back at The Great Cana-dian Novel and she is getting on with things just fine, so she says.

The latest piece of information that she dumped on me was that she had even created a fully annotated back-story on the characters but was having problems in deciding 1) in which country the story is occurring 2) in which era. She, like me, was born in Britain and is getting on in

years.To me, listening with

barely half an ear, this all sounded like a terrible amount of work; I’d want to get on with things before I died or went completely gaga.

Eventually, probably in a bit of a sulk, CD handed me her ‘first couple of chapters’ from her Great Cana-dian Novel and, after stalling for ages, putting off the awful moment because I was convinced that her ladyship would want me to audit her breathless prose, I dived in.

CD writes quite well and, apparently, uses her spell-check. Her studies with Lynn Truss had paid off. She is literate.

It appears that the Great Canadian Novel is about a woman who makes a long adventurous and arduous journey in the mountains with her brother-in-law. His wife instigated the trip but then, for some unknown reason backed out and so Doro-thea sets off into the unknown with Jacob,

whom she doesn’t know well at all, and isn’t sure whether she is having fun or not.

From what I’ve waded through so far, there is no naughty sexual inter-play in this epic, not so far, anyway, but Jacob is a flirt and Dorothea doesn’t know whether to be offended or flattered. It’s a bit breath-taking.

But now CD is complaining bitterly about at least one of the characters that she has created. “I hate Dorothea,” she told me. “She gets more and more like me. She’s ghastly. I’d like to drop her off a cliff somewhere.”

“Change her,” I suggested humbly.“I can’t. She’s taken over. Jacob is hav-

ing an awful time.”I was wondering if Ian Fleming got to

hate the James Bond he’d created. Did the Bronte sisters get into such pickles? Did Charles Dickens have to forcibly curb his characters’ ambitions? How does Marga-ret Atwood handle her creations when they act up?

I said, “Change the woman. You invent-ed her; change her.”

“Oh! Damn it!” exclaimed CD in frus-tration. “No way! She’s far too much like me.”

So, if any of my ardent readers happen to be in the process of writing the Great Canadian Novel, please, whatever you do, don’t haul your breathless prose round to me. I am getting an editor’s head-ache and I see CD outside getting out of her car so I am going to hide.

The Importance of Zinc

Live Life Well.New patients always welcome in

Kimberley and Cranbrook!For detailed information please visit:www.roots-to-health.com

or call 778-481-5008734 Rotary Drive, Kimberley

Zinc is an essential mineral in the body and is also the most common mineral de� ciency due in part to a large focus on macronutrients (protein, carbohydrates, fats) and a low intake of micronutrients in the standard North American diet.

A recent study showed that approximately 75% of older Americans did not even reach the lower end of the recommended daily allowance of zinc intake which is most likely the case in Canada as well.

Zinc is important for the formation of connective tissue, proper immune function, prostate health, protein synthesis, wound healing and normal taste and smell.

Zinc is also needed for proper growth and development during pregnancy, childhood and adolescence. We always add zinc supplementation as part of our surgery protocol to help speed up healing and support the immune system to reduce risk of infections. The highest concentration of zinc in the body of men is in the prostate gland and can help reduce the symptoms of an enlarged prostate.

A daily intake of zinc is required to maintain a steady state because the body has no specialized zinc storage system and zinc must be given with the appropriate amount of copper as they will actually cause de� ciencies of one another if given separately.

Foods that contain a high concentration of zinc include shell� sh, beans, legumes and whole oats. If you are planning to supplement with zinc talk to your health care professional as it is important to use the proper dose, form and ratio with copper.

If you have any questions about zinc or other nutritional supplements please feel free to contact us.

Top three players at Masters stick with coaches from youth

Doug FergusonAssociated Press

AUGUSTA, Ga. - The smell of turpentine takes Rory McIlroy back to his roots.

At the golf course where McIlroy grew up in Northern Ireland, there were certain times of the day when juniors were not allowed to play. So the 6-year-old would hang out in a tiny room behind the count-er at Holywood Golf Club and pester Michael Bannon, the pro who taught him the game.

“There were vices and grips and all that sort of stuff,” McIlroy said. “I would hang out in the back of the shop and just torment him all day until I could go out and play again. There are so many great mem-ories. Anytime I smell White Spirit, it reminds me of Michael. He would teach me how to put grips on clubs and stuff like that. Really, re-ally nice memories.”

That’s were a rela-tionship was formed, and it has been unshak-able. Bannon still has video of McIlroy’s natu-ral swing at age 8, into his teens and onto star-dom.

He is with him this week at the Masters. He is the only coach McIl-roy has ever had.

“Michael knows my swing better than any-one,” McIlroy said. “Knows my swing better that me, basically.”

The other two mem-bers of this current “Big Three” have the same stories, different circum-stances. Jordan Spieth and Jason Day have been with the same coach since they first got seri-ous about the game be-fore they were teenagers.

What these coaches lacked in fame, they made up for with pas-sion for the game and their pupils. More than coaches, they are men-tors.

Day’s life was headed in the wrong direction after his father died. His mother depleted the family savings and bor-rowed even more to send him to Koralbyn

International School in Queensland, where the golf program was run by Colin Swatton. It changed his life. Swat-ton not only remains his only coach, he is Day’s caddie.

“He’s taken me from a kid that was getting in fights at home and get-ting drunk at 12 and not heading in the right di-rection to a major cham-pion winner,” Day said after he won the PGA Championship. “And there’s not many coach-es that can say that in many sports.”

Cameron McCor-mick also is from Austra-lia. He came over to America in the early 1990s and played golf at a junior college in Kan-sas, then at Texas Tech. He became a teaching pro and eventually land-ed a job at Brook Hollow. That was about the time Shawn Spieth felt his 13-year-old son needed formal instruction.

McCormick said Jor-dan Spieth was “the most talented man he had ever come across.”

They did the heavy lifting early, getting Spi-eth’s arms and wrists moving in a different way, and then it was about refining. He learned early on that Spi-eth was all about compe-tition - and winning. “I haven’t beaten him in a short-game competition since he was 13,” McCor-mick said.

The trust they devel-oped is as valuable as any technical coaching.

“The more you’re around someone, you get to know them at such a deep level,” Mc-Cormick said. “There is a greater degree of hon-esty over time, and it’s easier to process. He’s good at articulating things to me in ways I understand. There is no

message interpretation needed. We can say any-thing to each other, and it’s coming from a place of genuine desire to help for both of us.”

McCormick only comes to about 10 tour-naments a year, the Masters and other ma-jors included. If some-thing is off, a phone call or a video text is all that’s needed.

“It’s a deeper level of trust,” Spieth said. “If you’re switching be-tween people, you’re searching for answers versus someone who’s seen so many swings of yours. They know your tendencies, and all of our tendencies keep coming up. If you ask any of us, when we get off, it’s something that’s been off before.”

Tiger Woods is on his fourth swing coach as a pro. Bubba Watson has never had one. Jack Nicklaus worked with Jack Grout from his teenage years, and while coaching was not as in-tensive as it is now, he only saw Grout a few times a year.

“I think it’s nice to have someone who knows you - not only knows your golf game, but knows your person-ality,” Nicklaus said. “These guys have had one teacher, and that’s great. I think it’s nice to have a relationship. Guys that change teachers constantly ... good gra-cious, you’re so much better off if you learn to correct yourself.”

All three players buy into the adage of not try-ing to fix what isn’t bro-ken. All three have trad-ed time at No. 1 in the world the last six months. They have won five of the last six majors.

“I feel like with Jor-dan and Jason, you’re seeing more and more guys adopt this ap-proach that if it has worked all the way through your junior and amateur career, these are the people that got us to this stage,” McIlroy said. “There’s no reason why it’s not going to work going forward.”

MARK DIDTLERAssociated Press

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - Steven Souza Jr.’s first multihomer game helped the Tampa Bay Rays to a second straight late come-from-behind victory.

Souza’s second home run of the game, a go-ahead, three-run drive in the eighth inning, lift-ed the Rays over the To-ronto Blue Jays 5-3 Wednesday.

Erasmo Ramirez (1-0) allowed one hit over the final two in-nings as the Rays split the four-game series after losing the first two.

“Just to even it up with those guys over there was so big for us,” Souza said. “It’s a great team over there. Obvi-ously a playoff team and one of the best in the American League.”

Souza pulled Tampa Bay to 3-2 in the sixth with a solo homer off J.A.

Happ. Tampa Bay has homered in a team-re-cord 18 consecutive games dating to Sept. 20.

“I’m just staying within myself,” Souza said. “Letting the ball take its course.”

Evan Longoria and Desmond Jennings sin-gled off Gavin Floyd (0-1) in the eighth, and Arnold Leon relieved with one out. Souza homered to centre for his fourth hit of the game, tying his ca-reer high.

Josh Donaldson hit a three-run homer in the third off Matt Moore. The reigning AL MVP left after a seventh-in-ning at-bat with a strained right calf.

“The calf just sort of locked up,” Donaldson said. “I tried to go three or four innings with it. It was just one of those sit-uations where one, I didn’t think I was quite able to play defence the way I wanted to, and two,

if I had to try and run, it was pretty difficult. But I don’t think it’s too seri-ous and, hopefully, I’ll be back for our next game.”

Troy Tulowitzki nearly made it 6-0 later in the third, but his drive with two on was caught by centre fielder Kevin Kiermaier near the wall at the deepest part of the ballpark.

Tampa Bay won 3-2 Tuesday night on a dis-puted game-ending double play in the ninth that was the result of a video review under baseball’s new slide rules. Logan Forsythe had given Tampa Bay the one-run lead with a two-run homer in the eighth of that game.

“Not a real good 24 hours, put it that way,” Toronto manager John Gibbons said.

The Blue Jays failed in a bid to win their fourth series in the last 26 trips to Tropicana Field.

“Obviously an excit-ing win,” Tampa Bay manager Kevin Cash said. “Anytime you drop the first two and you can come back, whether it’s the opening series, last

series, whatever, it feels pretty good. It’s a quality split because we put ourselves in a little bit of a hole.”

Moore gave up three

runs, five hits and two walks in five innings with six strikeouts. Happ al-lowed two runs and seven hits in six-plus in-nings.

TRAINER’S ROOMBlue Jays: LF Michael

Saunders, who played the first three games of the series on the artifi-cial turf at Tropicana Field, got the day off. He was limited to nine games last season due to left knee injuries. . RHP Marco Estrada (back) remained on schedule to start Sunday against Boston LHP David Price.

STRIKEOUT ZONERays pitchers struck

out 46 during the series. “They have a pretty good pitching staff over there,” Gibbons said. “That’s what they do.”

REAL HIGH FLYCasali hit a pop fly

that struck an overhang-ing catwalk 194 feet above the infield in the third inning that was caught by Tulowitzki at shortstop. It was just the fourth ball to strike the ‘A’ ring, which is in play, since the Rays started playing at Tropicana Field in 1998.

MOVING DAYThe Rays claimed OF

Jake Goebbert off waiv-ers from Pittsburgh and optioned him to Tri-ple-A Durham.

UP NEXTBlue Jays: RHP Mar-

cus Stroman (1-0) is to face Boston RHP Rick Porcello on Friday night in Toronto’s home open-er. . The Blue Jays are scheduled to work out Thursday in Toronto.

Rays: RHP Chris Ar-cher (0-1) will start a three-game trip against Baltimore and RHP Chris Tillman of Friday night. The Tampa Bay ace is 0-4 with a 5.50 ERA in seven starts since the beginning of last September.

Souza homers twice as Rays beat Blue Jays for split

STEPHEN HAWKINSAssociated Press

ARLINGTON, Texas - Robinson Cano hom-ered twice and drove in five runs, including a two-run homer that capped Seattle’s five-run ninth, as the Mariners rallied for a 9-5 victory at the Texas Rangers Wednesday in the finale of a three-game series.

Rangers closer Shawn Tolleson (0-1) allowed all five batters he faced to reach base and score.

Pinch-hitter Nori Aoki and No. 9 batter Ketel Marte started the ninth with consecutive singles, and Leonys Martin had a tying RBI double. Kyle Seager then had a two-run sin-gle before Cano’s fourth homer chased Tolleson.

Cano has homered in all three games for Seat-tle and is the first Mari-ners player ever with four homers in the first three games of the sea-son. He had 21 homers last season, and his fourth didn’t come until

his 71st game on June 26.Joaquin Benoit (1-0)

pitched a scoreless eighth.

Prince Fielder hit his first homer of the sea-son, a three-run drive in the sixth off Wade Miley put Texas up 5-3. It was the first homer this sea-son for the Rangers, who have allowed nine long balls.

Martin also homered for Seattle, his first of the season putting the Mari-ners up 3-0 in the second against Colby Lewis.

Cano hit a two-run homer in the first. He drew a bases-loaded walk in the seventh to get Seattle within a run before Nelson Cruz had an inning-ending flyball to Ian Desmond. The former All-Star short-stop for Washington made his first big league start in centre field and playing his first two games for Texas in left.

Miley struck out seven without a walk over six innings in his

Mariners debut. He was acquired from Boston in an off-season trade.

The 36-year-old Lewis went six innings in his first start of the sea-son, with four strikeouts and three walks.

TRAINER’S ROOMMariners: Aoki was

out of Seattle’s starting lineup, a day after the outfielder fouled a ball off a shin. Manager Scott Servais said he was ten-der, but available if need-ed. Aoki started the ninth-inning rally.

UP NEXTMariners: Seattle

gets a day off before its home opener Friday night against Oakland. Taijuan Walker, who was 11-8 last season, is the scheduled starter.

Rangers: Left-hander Derek Holland, who got hurt in the first inning of his first start last season, is to take the mound Thursday night when Texas opens a four-game series at the Los Angeles Angels.

Cano homers twice, Mariners rally in ninth

Nominees for Business Excellence Awards Juried63 Cranbrook businesses and organizations were nominated for a

2016 Business Excellence Award. The nominees all completed an interview with a three person jury panel as part of the awards process.

The Chamber office was crazy busy for the entire week. “We had 63 nominees, 33 judges and at times up to four rooms going simulta-neously all week”, said Chamber office manager Laura Kennedy. “The process is really rewarding. The judges and the nominees find the process very satisfying and worthwhile.”

With the 11 award recipients protected by a cloak of secrecy all was reveled at the sold out gala event last Saturday at St. Eugene Golf Re-sort and Casino.

The event was a roaring success with the evening wrapping up with a dance to the music of local recording artists The Black Dia-mond Band.More information or comment: Cranbrook Chamber of CommerceDavid D. Hull, Executive Director250 426 5914 office 604 302 7212 mobile 24/7

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Reach out to someone you re-ally care for. Often this person can be difficult to handle. Make this effort, and expect surprises along the way. You’ll have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make a new beginning in an area of your life. Tonight: Make this night yours. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You often keep your thoughts to yourself. This trait serves you well, as you are unlikely to say something you might regret. Sometimes your mind goes overboard when wondering about someone’s intentions. This could be the case today. To-night: Share with a close friend. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Zero in on what is important. You have a lot on your plate. You could be at a point where you will want to gather some friends for a brainstorming ses-sion. You might be surprised by what you hear, and you’ll need to ask questions to test out ideas. Tonight: Be spontaneous.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Know what you need to do. Honor someone else’s opinion, but also realize that this person tends to be controlling. Don’t hold that trait against him or her, but don’t play into this be-havior. In a discussion with an associate, you might be floored by what he or she says. Tonight: Up late. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Be willing to take a leap of faith. You might perceive a matter in a very different light once you can see the big picture. Don’t allow someone to drag you down. Detach with compassion and understanding. You don’t need to get involved. Tonight: Opt for the unusual. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) A partner comes in a lot closer than you had anticipated, and you could experience discom-fort as a result. Avoid manipula-tive behavior. Get together with a friend you really care about. You often can speak with this person on a deep level. Tonight: Opt for togetherness. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Someone comes forward to share what is going on in his or her head. You might have dif-ficulty interacting with others who might be part of the pack-age. Make that OK. You might want to observe an associate’s response to these people. To-night: Defer to others. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Be more forthright. However you choose to deal with a per-sonal matter will be the right move. Just realize your limita-tions. You have only so much time and energy to prioritize. Be much clearer about what you want and where you are going. Tonight: Pace yourself. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might be full of ideas, but others don’t seem to be on the same page as you. They are dealing with their own issues. You probably can’t get a group together to discuss a certain issue at this moment in time. Expect the unexpected. Tonight: Act as if it were the weekend. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Most of the day’s activity sur-rounds your personal life. You

might decide to spend more time at home. You might have a project to deal with, or perhaps a domestic matter encourages you to say close to home. Follow through on what feels right. To-night: Make it easy. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Keep communication flowing in an efficient and powerful manner. The exchange of ideas encourages depth and mutu-ality between you and others. You will experience a new be-ginning as a result. Stay on top of a personal issue. Tonight: Opt for something fun. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Be aware of what is happening around a loved one. You have a way of looking at a personal matter that invigorates others, partially because it reflects your authentic self. Make an effort to listen more carefully. Act on a long-term desire. Tonight: You are all smiles. BORN TODAY Guitarist John Oates (1949), ac-tor James Garner (1928), singer Billie Holiday (1915) ***

Dear Annie: While my leashed dog and I are bonding and enjoying our time together, people will virtually block our way and -- without asking me -- begin to vigorously pet my dog and interact directly with her. My dog is small and fluffy, and strangers, particularly kids, feel free to approach and play with her. These encounters are often not welcome or convenient for me. Sometimes I only have enough time to walk the dog before I have to be elsewhere, and other times, frankly, I’m just not in the mood. My dog doesn’t care one way or the other about the attention, but her long hair gets sticky, smelly and dirty when it’s stroked by unclean hands continually. I know other pet owners experience similar problems, but feel too guilty to deprive dog lovers of their fun. Are there any tactful and effective ways for me to keep people’s hands off my dog without sounding hostile? -- Need to Get Moving Dear Need: No one, particularly children, should approach and pet a strange dog without permission. It is dangerous. It’s perfectly OK for you to say, “Please don’t pet my dog.” If you say it nicely, but firmly, most people will not consider it hostile. They will think you are protecting them or your dog from potential harm. We have also heard about pet owners tying a yellow ribbon on the dog’s collar to indicate that the dog needs to be left alone. If this is not common practice in your area, feel free to inform everyone that when your dog is wearing the yellow ribbon, it means she needs her space. We think they will appreciate the information and respect your decision. Kids especially love having “special knowledge” and will be sure to pass it along. Dear Annie: This is for “Sad Nana,” who says her granddaughter isn’t allowed to bring presents back to her Dad’s house because it might create resentment with her stepsister, who rarely gets presents. Nana needs to step up to the plate. How can any grandmother buy gifts for one child and not the other, even if she is not a blood relative, when they are living in the same house? She is just pitting the girls against each other. I want to tell her to open her heart. This is an opportunity for her to have a second granddaughter. She could be a special person in this young girl’s life, providing a true gift of friendship and love that will last a lifetime. The girl will always remember Nana’s kindness, and hopefully she’ll pass on the same thoughtfulness when she becomes a grandmother. We should be building bridges and teaching our young the right values in life. These girls are now sisters and should be treated as such. Nana should be helping to cement this family, rather than separating them. If money is an issue, both gifts can be smaller. Kids don’t need so many things anyway. -- Nana of Seven Dear Nana: We are with you 100 percent. It is so much better to be kind to one another.

Jacobus Dirk Boon “Jack”

1920 – 2016Jack passed away peacefully with his family by his side on Thursday, March 31, 2016 in Cranbrook at 95 years of age.

Jack was born on October 25, 1920 in Holland. He married Helena de Kruijff on April 9, 1948. In 1954 they immigrated

to Canada with four children. They resided in the Burnaby and Abbotsford area where they had four more children. Jack owned a family plumbing business for over 40 years. For 10 years he had a chinchilla farm. In 1992 Jack and Helena moved to Fort Steele. Jack was passionate about his family, his faith and nature. He advocated for preserving the environment for his grandchildren and great grandchildren. Jack was always ready for a new adventure or a relaxing visit.

Jack is survived by his eight children Adriana (Dirk) Van Tongeren, Gina Blake, Andrew (Dawn) Boon, Peter (Tina) Boon, Jim (Barb) Boon, Martin (Bev) Boon, Helen Boon and Ken (Arlene) Boon. He was a loving Opa to 17 grandchildren and 28 great grandchildren. Jack was predeceased by his wife Helena in 2006, his brother Cornelius (Janny) Boon and his sister Hendrika (Arie) Van Dermeer from Holland.

A visitation for Jack will be held at Knox Presbyterian Church in Cranbrook on Saturday, April 9, 2016 from 10:00 am until 11:00 am. His service will follow at 11:00 am. Jack will be interred in the Fort Steele Cemetery.

The closure of Yahk Elementary School is being recommended by administrative staff of Kootenay Lake School District.

Although there are only three students at-tending classes current-ly, Superintendent of Schools Jeff Jones is rec-ommending a “tempo-rary closure” for Sep-tember 2016, when no students are projected to attend the struggling school.

The Canyon-Lister Elementary School catchment will be ex-panded to include Yahk if the School Board adopts the recommen-dation to close the small rural school. No addi-tional costs will be in-curred to transport stu-dents to Canyon, Jones said, because the school district is already re-quired to provide bus transportation for grade 8-12 students.

In his report, Jones addresses a number of considerations that dis-trict policy outlines when a school is consid-ered for closure. Under the category Potential Parental and Local

Community Support, he writes, “The local com-munity relies on the presence of a public school as an attractor for individuals, and to support the economic plan of the community. Given that the school enrolment is presently 3, and projected to be zero for 2016/2017, it is assumed that parents of students living in Yahk have tolerance for trans-porting their children to Creston or Canyon/List-er because some par-ents from Yahk have al-ready been sending their children to schools outside of the Yahk Ele-mentary School catch-ment area, seeking more breadth and opportuni-ties for their children.”

With an enrolment of only 3 students, Jones said, “Students from Yahk would benefit from being members of a larger school communi-ty, with a greater breadth of programming and learning supports.”

That benefit comes at a cost, however.

“However, it should be noted that lon-ger-than-preferred bus routes to transport the children to school would be required.”

Strangely, closing the school will actually not save money for Koote-nay Lake District in the short term.

The report outlines savings of $15,600 for custodial services, $15,346 for clerical ser-vices, $78,042 for ad-ministration/vice prin-cipal, $2,600 for tele-phone and supplies and $2,258 for utilities. How-ever, a loss of $172,620 from provincial Small Community Supple-ment Funding means there will be a net annu-al cost to close the school of $56,516.

“Although there is an annual on-going cost to close the school, the District would divest it-self of $491,866 future deferred maintenance costs. The closure of Yahk and movement of students to Canyon List-er will not impact the capital plan in that no new or renovated space will be required.”

Yahk Elementary School faced a closure threat in 2011 but a flur-ry of enrolments brought the student population up to a total of 18 for 2011-12. Enrol-ment has been on the decline since that time.

Yahk school faces closure

Yahk Elementary School currently has only three students attending, but its closure will cost the Kootenay Lake School District. district money.

c anadian PressVICTORIA - Premier Christy Clark

says she’s not about to overhaul Brit-ish Columbia’s political funding rules despite Opposition moves to ban cor-porate and union contributions and limit individual contributions.

Clark says she represents all British Columbians and that the amount of money connected to individuals or businesses does not come into play in her government.

Recent media reports say individu-als pay thousands of dollars for meet-ings with the premier, but Clark says she doesn’t walk into meetings with anyone asking how much they donat-ed to her party.

Elections BC financial statements released this week reveal the govern-ment received almost $10 million in

political contributions last year, while the Opposition New Democrats pulled in $3 million.

NDP Leader John Horgan was set to introduce a private member’s bill to review campaign financing and spe-cifically set limits on individual dona-tions.

B.C. does not have political contri-bution limits, but the province’s Elec-tion Act establishes limits on the amount of anonymous contributions a candidate, registered constituency association or political party can ac-cept.

B.C. premier rejects calls for spending reforms,

NDP seeks donation bans

FOR THE TOWNSMANLoss of access to the Lower

Canyon of the Kicking Horse River has resulted in a groundswell of support for whitewater rafters and kayak-ers as Golden and area resi-dents take action to protect access to this vital part of the community, says Mayor of Golden Ron Oszust.

“Along with a community of caring and committed stakeholder on Thursday, I

sat down with representatives from CP Rail to make our community’s position clear: CP Rail’s response to our community cannot be no,” said Oszust. “Golden and area residents accept the risks that come with having a rail-way in the heart of our com-munity, including the risk of derailments and spills. In contrast, over more than 30 years, not a single incident has occurred at the crossing

in question.“As a community, we miti-

gate the risks that we face, and our expectation is that CP Rail will do the same in this situation. Access to the Lower Canyon of the Kicking Horse River must continue, and this needs to be resolved prior to the season opening in May.”

Mayor Oszust was joined by representatives of the raft-ing and kayaking community,

Golden and District Search and Rescue, Tourism Golden, Kicking Horse Chamber of Commerce, MP Wayne Stets-ki by phone, a representative from MLA Norm Macdon-ald’s office, Regional District Director Karen Cathcart, and members of council.

“I was carrying the mes-sage that I have heard from every single stakeholder. We are expecting that CP Rail will return to its role of a good

corporate citizen and com-munity partner to negotiate a solution for all parties. There is a solution, and collectively we need to find it.”

Rafting companies and politicians have received nearly 200 letters of support from local citizens, local busi-ness owners, regional and provincial tourism organiza-tions, and people from around the world who have visited the Lower Canyon.

“The response we have re-ceived in just a week has been really amazing,” said Ryan Jo-hannesen, owner of Glacier Rafting, speaking on behalf of the Kicking Horse River Out-fitters Association. “Thou-sands of people from around the world have heard about this situation, and they just want to know what they can do to help keep access to the Lower Canyon open.”
