Samaritan gets carjacked, gunman shotCreston’s Alan Armstrong made national news last week
when he was forced from his Toyota Forerunner at gunpoint, then pepper-sprayed and left at the side of the highway
By LORNE ECKERSLEYAdvance staff
Creston’s Alan Armstrong was making a routine run to Cranbrook on Tuesday evening when the trip turned into a night-mare.
“I was hauling parts on Highway 3 through Goatfell (west of Yahk) when I saw a guy waving me down on the road. He said he had run out of gas and had no money and needed a ride,” Armstrong said on Tuesday morning.
It was snowing and Armstrong was on a timeline, so he told the man and his girl-friend to get in quickly.
“Then I said to him, ‘If you were going to Cranbrook, why was your car faced in the other direction by the road?’ I guess I shouldn’t have said anything. He grabbed my head and smashed it against the door.”
“’Pull over motherfucker, or I’ll blow your fucking skull open,’ he screamed. He was screaming and shaking. I got my truck pulled over and he pushed a gun against my head.”
The carjacker pepper-sprayed Armstrong before tearing off in the 2006 Toyota Forerunner.
Armstrong said he was vomiting and mucous was pouring through his nose as he staggered around and tried to get his bearings.
“I’d had enough wits about me to grab my cell phone as I was being pushed from the truck so I managed to dial 911. But of course there is no cell coverage out there.”
He saw a residence nearby with a light in the window and made his way to the front door, where he stood screaming and
crying for help. But his ordeal wasn’t quite
over. A male resident opened the door, armed with a rifle, fearing that he was about to be a victim himself.
“It was dark and they weren’t about to let me into the house until they knew what was going on, so he brought his car around so the headlights could shine on me,” Armstrong said. “Then they saw what a mess I was and brought me into their house.”
He used the residents’ landline to call 911 and was informed that Cranbrook and Creston RCMP and a police dog were already respond-ing.
An ambulance arrived to transport Armstrong to Creston Valley Hospital, but it had to make a few stops along the way as the smell of pepper spray was overwhelming the paramedics, Armstrong said.
He was released from hospital early Wednesday morning.
While initial media reports said the carjacker was pulled over in Yahk, he was actually stopped in Cranbrook, Creston RCMP Staff Sergeant Bob Gollan said on Wednesday.
According to a Cranbrook Daily Townsman report, the suspect vehicle was pulled over a short time later, RCMP pulled over the suspect vehicle in Cranbrook and the male carjacking sus-pect was shot. He has what police describe
as non-life-threatening injuries. The female in the car and the police officer were unharmed. The female is now in custody while the male suspect is in Cranbrook hospital.
The BC government announced last-Wednesday that the new Independent Investigations Office (IIO) will assume control of the shooting scene when six of its personnel arrive by air.
“The IIO and the involved police ser-vice will work within the terms agreed upon in the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that was signed by the Chief Civilian Director and B.C.'s police services in July, 2012. The MOU provides for circumstances where there are concurrent investigations underway.
“As set by the Chief Civilian Director,
the IIO's goals are to conduct fair, unbi-ased, timely, thorough and competent investigations and ensure transparency through public reporting,” the announce-ment said.
Twenty-six-year-old Nickolas John Bullock and a 17-year-old girl, both from Port Coquitlam, appeared in Cranbrook court on Friday and have been charged over Tuesday’s carjacking outside Creston and the later shootout with RCMP in Cranbrook.
According to an RCMP press release Thursday, Bullock is facing charges of robbery and possession of stolen prop-erty. The girl, who cannot be named because she is under 18 years old, is fac-ing one charge of possession of stolen property.
Annalee Grant photoIndependent Investigations Office investigators arrived on the scene of a police-involved shooting that occurred last Wednesday just outside Cranbrook city limits, off of 22 Ave South, about a block from Kootenay Orchards Elementary School.

EXTRAVAGANZA
A concert of piano, vocal, band and string ensembles

Tickets at Black Bear Books and at the door
Extravaganza! promises to be the biggest concert that the local music teachers have yet produced.
They started in an unassuming way, local piano teachers playing a concert of piano solos and duets in 2001. They followed this with a tribute to Mozart that featured Warren Bruns in period costume as the teachers performed primarily
piano music.This week, however, the Creston Valley
Music Teachers’ Association is pulling out all the stops as they are supported by vocal and instrumental groups. The Creston Community Band provides great pre-show music. Velle Weitman Trio always delights the audience with toe-tapping fiddle music. Close harmonies are featured in the vocal music by Key of
She. In contrast, the Kokanee
Brass ring out bright tones and dynamic rhythms. Solo artists Bob van der Poel (sax-ophone) and Sophia Smith (cello) add their talents to a variety show that you won’t want to miss. Yes, there will be two piano solos, but the
piece de resistance will surely be the Galop-Marche by Lavignac, as four piano teachers jockey positions to play eight hands on one piano. They com-pletely banish the image of the stern, unsmiling piano teacher of bygone days!
The mission of the CVMTA is to pro-vide expanded musical opportunities for local students. They sponsor work-shops by music specialists, organize student recitals (the next one is November 18 to celebrate Canada Music Week), and provide music schol-arships. The teachers’ annual concert is a fundraiser for the Monte Anderson Music Scholarship fund.
Concert proceeds go to the fund, and a representative of the Creston-Kootenay Foundation is also available to receive donations. Both concerts are at the Prince Charles Theater--Friday, October 12 at 7:00 pm and Sunday October 14 at 2:30 pm. Tickets are avail-able at Black Bear Books and at the door. These are very affordable at $12/adult, $10/seniors and students, $8/children under age 11. For further
information, check the website www.cvmta.ca.

Former chief librarian honoured for literacy effortsBY BRIAN LAWRENCE
Advance Editor
Ann Day recently received the Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy’s Community Literacy Award, placing ahead of seven other nominees.
Following in the footsteps of winners Vicky Koenig and Family Place (2011) and Kootenay Employment Services (2010), a round of public voting ranked Day ahead of nominees Kathy Tompkins, Linda Price, Henry Schoof, Margaret Basaraba, Teresa Caruso and Coral Buchholz.
“This community has repaid me a million times for the work I did,” said Day. “This just blows me away.”
As chief librarian of the
Creston and District Public Library from 2005-2012, she broadened the library’s collec-tion to promote literacy to young adults and children, and encouraged computer literacy among all ages.
For the last couple of years, she has also organized a book club for Therapeutic Activation Program for Seniors (TAPS) members. About 10 women form a core group in the club, which meets each Tuesday to read chapters aloud, and dis-cuss the book they’re reading.
“They’re voracious. They read the whole gamut of books,” said Day, from Catherine Cookson to early Saskatchewan history.
Her inspiration for the pro-gram came from a couple of sources. Genevieve, a library
patron and TAPS member, asked her about a book club one day at the library. The library’s club wasn’t geared to seniors, so at the suggestion of local author Tanna Patterson and with the help of TAPS co-ordinator Bridget Currie, the seniors club was started.
“It’s a group effort,” she said.
Through work and volun-teering, Day has appreciated the chance to encourage litera-cy in the Creston Valley, hoping to pass on some of the excite-ment she felt when the school librarian read The Hobbit to Day’s Grade 3 class.
“I met all aspects of Creston because of literacy,” said Day. “I met all the people that read-ing really means something to.”

Fly fishing in the Yemenfeatures terrific cast
Friends of the Cinema
Two of the silver screen’s most watchable stars team up for next Monday’s Friends of the Cinema presentation, Salmon Fishing in the Yemen.
Ewan McGregor and Kristin Scott Thomas team up for the improbable story about a visionary Middle East sheik that wants to enrich the lives of
his people by allowing them to fish for salmon. Yes, in the des-ert.
With money to burn or, per-haps more accurately, to cast away, he works to lure Britain’s leading fisheries expert (McGregor) to lead the project.
Thomas, meanwhile, plays the Prime Minister’s press sec-retary who is anxious to spin the tale into a rare positive
story about Anglo-Arab rela-tion ships.
Salmon Fishing in the Yemen will be shown on Monday, October 15 in Prince Charles Theatre at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are available at the door for those who don’t have season’s pass-es. Net proceeds from the film series go to support Friends of the Library and Friends of the Auditorium.

Thunder Cats drop a close oneby LORNE ECKERSLEY
Advance staff
The Creston Valley Thunder Cats came this close to defeating perennial powerhouse Fernie Ghostriders in the team’s only game last weekend.
It was the Fernie team, though, that was most able to enjoy Thanksgiving dinner after squeaking out a 2-1 over-time victory at home on Saturday eve-ning.
“Overall we played a really good game and we had many chances to win,” Cats’ coach Josh Hepditch said on Tuesday. “But they put a lucky bounce by us in overtime to gain the extra point.”
While the stat sheet indicated a 41-33
edge in shots for the Ghostriders, Hepditch thought the game was pretty even.
“We had a goal called back in the first period that probably shouldn’t have been called back,” he said. “But those things happen and they tend to balance out.”
Standouts in Saturday’s game, according to the first-year head coach, included Trevor Hanna, who scored the Thunder Cats’ only goal—“and had a lot of good chances”—and goalie Michael Hails.
“Our goalie gave us a chance to win,” said Hepditch. “He kept us right in the game throughout.”
A strong effort by defenseman Brady Ward was also noted, though the coach
added the entire roster played well.“It was good to see that we are as
competitive as the Fernie team,” he said.
The close Eddie Mountain Division shows only four points separating the five teams, with Fernie now in top spot with 11 points, followed by Kimberley (10), Columbia Valley (9) and Golden and Creston with 7 points apiece.
The Thunder Cats could be right back in the thick of the race for first place with a pair of victories over the Kimberley Dynamiters this weekend. The teams play on Friday in Creston and Saturday in Kimberley.
“These are two really big games for us,” Hepditch said.
CorrectionThe early bird doesn’t always get the worm.
The Farmers Market is now running from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. each Saturday at Morris Flowers Greenhouse on Erickson Road.

The purchase of two Duck Lake prop-erties from Wynndel Box and Lumber by the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) is intended to benefit grizzly bear and northern leopard frog populations.
The sale, recently announced by NCC, involves 306 acres (124 hectares), some of which is currently in agricultural produc-tion. That use will continue.
“Protecting this land in the valley bot-tom is vitally important for the long‐term
prospects of the South Selkirk grizzly bear population,” said Nancy Newhouse, Canadian Rockies program manager for the NCC. “These lands are also incredibly important for agriculture. The NCC is proud to be able to work hand in hand with local producers to protect both wild-life habitat and our farming heritage.”
The purchased land is frequented by an at-risk population of grizzly bears that move between the Selkirk and Purcell mountain ranges. It is also home to the only known breeding population of the endangered northern leopard frog, which has been a key
focus of t h e C r e s t o n V a l l e y
Wildlife Management Area for years.The project is named Frog‐Bear
Conservation Area in honour of two of the key species that will benefit from its con-servation. The total cost of the project is $1.1 million, which includes an endow-ment fund to enable long‐term steward-ship of the properties.
The Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative (Y2Y) played a critical role in this project, Newhouse said.
The joint U.S.-Canada organization works to ensure that wild animals are able to move through and around human com-munities and activities within the 1.3 mil-lion-kilometre Yellowstone to Yukon region. Y2Y not only provided half the purchase funds for the property, but also
helped fund the research that identified the significance of this parcel.
“We are pleased to have come together with NCC to buy this land at Duck Lake, which is critical for the survival of large mammals and amphibians,” said Harvey Locke, Y2Y Strategic advisor. “Highway 3 is the most important area to ensure wild-life connectivity is preserved in the entire Yellowstone to Yukon region.”
Renowned grizzly bear expert Michael Procter supports the land purchase.
"Grizzly bears are what we call an umbrella species, meaning their range is so large that it overlaps the habitat of many other species," said Proctor, lead researcher of the Trans‐border Grizzly Bear Project. "Through habitat modelling we identify where bears will most likely travel through the valley, which then guides our conservation efforts to the highest value habitat for bears and, by default, many other creatures."
Additional funding for the project came from the Fish and Wildlife Compensation Program, the US Fish and Wildlife Service, the Donner Canadian Foundation, Wilburforce Foundation and other private donors.
The Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) is the nation’s leading not‐for‐prof-it private land conservation organization, working to protect our most important natural areas and the species they sustain. Since 1962 NCC and its partners have helped to protect more than two million acres (800,000 hectares) coast to coast.

Investigation underway in weekend arrest incidentCreston male injured in alleged obstruction
Count me among those who, only a few months ago, suspected that at least one, and probably more, of the MLAs who have announced they are run-ning in next spring’s election would make a move to the BC Conservatives. Now it seems in doubt that party leader John Cummins will be around for long.
Cummins brought the same pedigree to the provincial Conservatives that Prime Minister Stephen Harper carries as the leader of his party. He was first elected as a Reform MP, then moved on with the Canadian Alliance and then the Conservatives. For 18 years he sat in the House of Commons, mostly without distinction, at least to my memory.
But he has his former leader’s stick-to-it-iveness, standing up for conservative values and brooking no dissent. Cummins’ leadership was thought to be in question going into last months convention, but he survived, albeit not without some effort on his part. Being a leader is one thing, though. Having followers is entirely differ-ent, something the Lower Mainland politico is learning the hard way.
Sitting MLA John van Dongen’s
flirtation with the BC Conservatives came to an end
after the convention, with the for-mer Liberal being quoted as say-ing, “I cannot carry on with a lead-er who probably really doesn’t care whether I stay or go, and so I’ve got to do what I believe is right for my constituents and what I believe is right for British Columbians.”
Cummins might have been able to dismiss van Dongen as a per-petually disgruntled politico, and he might not have been far off, but the defection to the Liberals of recently unsuccessful by-election candidate John Martin, along with the loss of a party executive mem-ber, does not bode well for the short-term future of Cummins or his party.
The laughable thing about this, if there is anything funnier than Cummins ordering party dissidents to resign by yesterday (Wednesday) at noon, is that the
most recent Angus Reid poll put his party only six percentage
points behind the governing Liberals (19 to 25 per cent, with the NDP the clear leader with 46 per cent).
With a more charis-matic leader, the BC Conservatives might be gunning to form the official opposition next spring, with vot-ers appearing having
no end of difficulty warming up to Christie Clark as premier. Instead, they look for all the world like an organization on the verge of imploding.
It must be frustrating for right- and centre right-leaning voters who must suspect that Adrian Dix, under pressure, might begin to look less like premier material and more than the old legislative pit-bull who was such an effective opponent in the legislature. Instead, it is Dix, not Clark or Cummins, who has the cool, calm and collected look of a premier in waiting these days.
The Liberals aren’t likely to find a way to deep-six Clark with less than eight months to the election, and now it appears that a very stubborn, and not very charismat-ic, John Cummins is not going to go quietly into that good night, either.

To the Editor:(Open letter to Kootenay-Columbia
member of Parliament David Wilks)I hope you had a good summer and
are ready to go to Ottawa and repre-sent your Kootenay-Columbia constit-uents to the best of your ability and conscience. I also hope that you will vote for or against what you truly believe in and what best represents the wishes of your fellow Kootenay-Columbia Canadians. Even if you have to be our independent MP because of your principles, I would fully support you.
I grew up under the Hitler dictator-ship and lasted, for some years, under
the brutal Soviet dictatorship. Because of this, I have become very sensitive to any politician who practices contempt of parliament and pushes his will and ideology in a dictatorial way into law.
You have observed and witnessed that Mr. Harper has done just that again and again. You have spoken out against Bill C-38 but when it came to the vote, you caved in or didn’t have the courage to vote against it. I do hope it will be different in the coming Parliament ses-sion. And please try to make Mr. Harper understand that we can’t have a healthy economy without a healthy planet and that climate change is the greatest threat facing humanity.
It would be great to have an MP who stands up for freedom and democ-racy and a healthy Mother Earth, an MP we can be proud of — in other words, a great Canadian. As you do your work in Ottawa for us, please take Albert Einstein’s words to heart: “The world is a dangerous place to live because of the people who don’t do anything about it.”
for the coming session, I wish you health, happiness, wisdom and courage. Thank you for carrying the burden of responsibility and representing us in Ottawa.

To the Editor:Creston has fulfilled our expectations
in every way possible. Some 15 years ago we fell in love with the area and moved here nearly a year ago, bought a house and settled in to this amazing community. The stunning views, the astounding agriculture, the wilderness and clean air (until this fall) had us smil-ing every single day. We noticed, too, that people weren’t afraid to say hi and we quickly became connected with neighbors within several blocks on either side of our home. But just the other day I was reminded of the incred-ible, warm hearted and concerned pro-active people we have here in our new community.
Walking our dog, Skyla, along Pine Street just below the grain elevators, we saw a little rusty brown dog running down the middle of the road. His whit-
ened tongue was hanging out so far to the side that it was quickly evident that he was exhausted. He didn’t look like he knew where to go and it seemed like he really wanted to approach us. Skyla, of course, wasn’t too sure about that and was a bit energetic, so the rusty brown dog went around us and contin-ued to run down the middle of the road oblivious to cars.
At that moment, a lovely woman jog-ging by shared my concern and we both stopped there, not sure what to do — she was ready to go banging on neigh-bors doors to see if anyone knew the dog — when a red SUV drove up slowly and the woman driver stopped to talk to us. She had been following the dog since she saw it a few blocks above the farmers’ market and was going to try and catch it. Concerned, I decided to cut my walk short and turned around for
home.The lady driver came back around
the corner and slowed to tell me that the dog was in her vehicle and she was headed for the Pet Adoption and Welfare Society shelter, but wanted to give the dog a drink first. I gave the driver my card because I immediately wanted to comb out the bedraggled fur and care for the dog, but knew that it had to be reported to PAWS first. Luckily, little Coco, as PAWS now calls him, is being taken care of with lots of love by the wonderful staff there and they hope to find his family soon.
I was so impressed that in that short amount of time so many people were concerned enough to take action for the little dog. We love Creston!

To the Editor:I want to be wrong when I think that
the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality cares no more about impacts to peoples’ health than the Idaho Department of Agriculture did when it oversaw the field burning before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeal ruled that IDEQ would be better at “watching the henhouse” than the agriculture com-munity itself.
I want to be wrong when I doubt that burns completed in counties closest to our Canadian border, which impact Canadians’ health, matter to those in the U.S. who are supposed to care about impacts to their neighbours immediate-ly beyond their border. After all, we work together to help each other fight wildfires, why wouldn’t we care about
how we impact each others’ health from field burning?
I want to be wrong when I call the 1-800-345-1007 hotline to report effects from an Idaho field burn and get the feeling that they are just going through the motions of caring how they impact us, when really it doesn’t matter that we are in exceptionally dry conditions here or already daily impacted by wildfire smoke from Washington state.
I want to be wrong when it seems that the IDEQ crop residue burning advisory committee is mastering the sci-ence of better burning and moving the practice to new heights by igniting fields when they are sure the impacts will be minimized to surrounding com-munities, then has a year like 2012, which is one of the worst I have seen in
the Creston Valley in 20 years.I want to be wrong when I suspect
that our Ministry of Environment doesn’t even seem to communicate with IDEQ regarding burn bans in effect, cur-rent nearby wildfires and recent air quality in our valley before a field is lit. And I want to be wrong when I suspect that my efforts to get our farmers here in Creston assistance in developing better burning practices by learning from Idaho will not result in any improve-ment, because Idaho is, at least this year, just not pulling it off themselves.
I want to be wrong.But judging by the smoke from Idaho
fields this year, I don’t think I am. Pat Martin

Pick a sunny, late morning or early afternoon for an outing on foot and you may meet up with some colorful butter-flies doing the same thing you are. A mourning cloak butterfly you may just chance to meet along the sunny edge of an orchard, in openings along a woodland trail, on a quiet road or along a forest edge. Chances of a meeting are best where there is a diversity of landscape aspects and vegetation enhanced with warm sunshine.
Butterflies? A bit out-of-season? No, not really. Late summer, early fall is the time for some species to be flitting about.
Now, backing up a bit, like insects in general butterflies are fairly ubiquitous. At least in some stage of life, they are found in just about every time and space. There are butterfly species spe-cific to spring, to mid and late summer and also autumn.
Most but-terflies are habitat specific. They are frequently found hanging around in special places that, in several ways, including food, satis-fy their needs. Or, they are on the search for them. Females will hang out in areas having their caterpil-lars’ food plant, waiting for a mate to come along.
In very early spring there are elfin butterflies, followed by some blues and whites. In late spring there are swallowtails and in early and mid summer there are yellow sulfurs, and fritillaries accompa-nied by wood nymphs, and in late summer appear the fall butterflies.
Now, some species are double brooded so adults may occur at two different times. Some species appear again, later than usual, because they hatch out at higher elevations and fly down. So, in
spring, when temperatures approach plus 20 C., even in sheltered niches, but-terflies begin to hatch out and fly about.
W h e n a u t u m n frosts begin to occur but-terflies are seen less and less.
The late summer or fall butter-flies usually
begin completing their lar-val life in late July and begin hatching out into adults in early to mid August and are more com-monly seen as the month progresses. Autumn but-terflies comprise two main groups along with several other kinds. One group includes the mourning cloak and tortoise shells and the second, the anglew-ing (not angelwing) butter-flies.
Most fall butterflies mate the following spring after a winter “hibernation” in sheltered crannies protected from direct frost and winds. Their “antifreeze” is of the natural kind. In the fall after a frosty night they
may crawl out, if warm enough, and flit around in some sunny spot. Being able to feed as adults they will “sip” moisture and nutritional fluids through their “tongue” which, otherwise, is coiled up between the eyes.
Some animals have gross-to-human eating habits and, here, butterflies are not excluded. In some tropical parts of the world butterflies are attracted to rotting fish. In our area I have seen them sipping from horse manure, coyote droppings and from some unidentified foul sub-stances. They often sip at moist sand on
trails or dirt roadways either getting water and/or nitrogenous nutrients. I have also seen fall butterflies feeding at compost piles and at rotten apples around the orchards. All this is to obtain essen-tial nutrients to carry them over the win-ter into spring.
It is not too late to catch up with some of these autumn butterflies, dressed up in fall colors, sporting yellow and purple and brown, black, white, orange and red blotches and spots. Pick a warm and sunny autumn day and go “hunting”. Recently, on a late morning walk we caught up with mourning cloaks, green and gray commas (anglewings), and Compton's tortoise-shells. In a rare autumn I have encountered California tortoise-shell butterflies and the rarer West Coast painted lady around gardens with hollyhocks. “Open” your eyes, take your camera and have fun!

The first thing a visitor to Brenda Lukasie-wich’s Wynndel
home notices is the scent of lavender filling the air, both outside and inside.
But with over 700 plants on the property, it’s no surprise that their pres-ence is so evident.
“It’s a hobby gone mad,” said Lukasiewich, who was a nurse for 29 years.
Wynndel Lavender didn’t start out as such a going concern, though.
After moving to the Creston Valley from Edmonton, Lukasiewich was looking for plants to put around a backyard pond, so a friend gave her some lavender. When it grew bigger than the cedars sharing the space around the pond, she knew what she had to do — she got 360 more lavender plants.
“I probably would have settled for that if it hadn’t been for the farmers’ mar-ket,” she said.
But the success of her booth at the Creston Valley Farmers’ Market — which runs through December — prompted Lukasiewich to expand her business to 750 plants, which isn’t as much as it seems, depending on your point of view.
“By lavender farm stan-dards, that is still rather small — some commercial growers can have as many as 14,000,” she said.
It’s enough, however, that she can’t harvest it alone, and annually enlists the help of her children and grandchildren.
“It’s gotten to be so much, now the kids come in August to help with the
harvest,” Lukasiewich said. “I buy their fishing licences and they harvest.”
Lukasiewich grows mainly French lavender, a hybrid developed by French perfume industry, which smells less sweet than the English type grown in most gardens.
The harvest results in a lot of lavender, which Lukasiewich dries and sells in bundles — she sells fresh bundles in season — as well as jars of buds, drawer liners, stress balls, closet fresheners and eye pillows, the latter being her most popular item.
Growing lavender means that Lukasiewich’s plan to move to the Creston Valley from Edmonton worked out
well — she wanted to gar-den and her husband wanted to fish, and they started building their Wynndel home in 2005.
Before leaving Edmonton and retiring from her nursing career, Lukasiewich became a master gardener, and then furthered her knowledge by joining the Creston Valley Garden Club, where the members learn by “snooping in each oth-ers’ yards.”
To top it all off, she’s thrilled with the climate in the valley, which couldn’t serve her hobby better.
“It’s so rewarding to put a stick in the ground and it grows,” she said. “You can’t do that in Edmonton. It’s my therapy.”

Canadian citizenship is not for sale. Our Conservative Government is taking action to strip citizenship and permanent residence status
from people who don’t play by the rules, who lie, cheat, and scam their way into obtaining citizenship.
Having Canadian citizenship is an honour and a privilege. We will apply the full strength of Canadian law against those cheapening its integrity by fraud.
Our Government’s investigation into residence fraud continues to grow, with nearly 11,000 individu-als potentially implicated in apply-ing for citizenship or maintaining permanent resident status illegiti-mately.
We have already begun the pro-cess to strip 3,100 fraudulently obtained citizenships.
In most cases, suspects will use deceitful immigration representa-tives to fraudulently create evi-dence of living in Canada while actually living overseas. This decep-
tion is created so that individuals can fraudulently maintain their permanent residence status and later apply for citizenship.
Shockingly, criminal inves-tigations have found that a family of five may pay upwards of $25,000 over four or more years to create the illusion of Canadian resi-
dence.This fraud hurts everyday
Canadian families. Those who ille-gitimately obtain permanent resi-dence or citizenship status have access to taxpayer subsidized edu-cation, health care, and other social benefits without ever contributing as a taxpayer themselves.
It also hurts the majority of immigrants who come to Canada, who follow the rules with honesty and integrity.
Over the past six years since the Conservatives formed Government, Canada has had the highest sus-tained level of immigration in his-tory. We are committed to creating an immigration system that brings the world’s best and brightest to Canada while protecting our immi-gration system against those who would abuse our generosity.
No more free ride Sunny fall brings out treatsAfter another cool, wet
spring it sure has been great to enjoy all the sunshine we've had lately. It is nice to see the fall colours creeping their way into the foliage.
As I've men-tioned before a little short term drought stress at the end of summer encourages plants to go into their winter dor-mancy faster. Bright reds, yel-lows and oranges appear ear-lier on these plants. With no serious frosts to contend with the leaves of these trees will just hang on until the next big windstorm hits. This seems to happen every time the jet stream gets the valley lined up between north and south systems.
Speaking of early...when it comes to the harvest season of various fruit trees, we have an Early Italian prune plum that we just finished picking last week. We also have a Late Italian tree which we are just now starting to harvest. Two different cultivars, roughly ten days apart.
Redhaven peaches offer another example of this. The Early Redhaven is ready around Aug. 10th and while it is great eating the later Redhaven Peaches offer great eating as well as the usefulness of a freestone pit which makes canning them a lot easier. In addition to the varieties ripening date, the more sun the fruit tree receives the faster it will
ripen the fruit. If you have a very light crop of fruit the lack of volume would speed
the process up as well.For a cucumber plant each
and every fruit will take the same amount of energy out of
the plant regardless of fruit size. The fruit is basically an energy sink. For plants like the tomato, more sunlight expo-sure means more fruit and this is directly proportional. That is
to say ten per cent more sun-light should yield you ten per cent more fruit in a given sea-
son if all else is the same.
While writing of harvests and just recently having c e l e b r a t e d Thanksgiving I was going to men-tion the pumpkin plant that grew out of the nursery's compost pile. No
fewer than 45 pumpkins rang-ing from 4 to 20 pounds off one enormous volunteer plant. It's ironic that with the late start to
the gardening season this year this one just popped up on it's own and presto. That's one of the great joys of gardening! There's always another pleas-ant surprise.

Who: Josh Hepditch.What: Better hockey players, better
people.Where: As head coach of the Creston
Valley ThundercatsWhen: Since September.Why: “I just loved the game and want-
ed to see how far I could go.”
“He’s the sort of guy you think you’re going to be saying, ‘I knew him when’ one day,” RCMP Staff Sergeant Bob Gollan says of Josh Hepditch.
Hepditch, the new Creston Valley Thunder Cats coach, makes that kind of impression on a lot of people. He got a ter-rific reception recently when he spoke to both local Rotary clubs, leaving members talking about this young man who is articulate, passionate and intensely dedi-cated to a game he loves.
Hepditch got off to a good start when
he arrived in Creston—after driving across Canada on his honeymoon to start his first ever head coaching job with a league team. The recruiting package that former Thunder Cat coach Joe Martin sent him included photos of the Creston & District Community Complex--before it was renovated and had new aquatic and fitness facilities added.
“You’d think he might have thought that new photos would have been a selling feature,” Hepditch laughs. “So we drove into Creston and see this incred-ible facility, and the next day the big Sportsnet community event was on and we were just amazed at the facility and the commu-nity.”
Hepditch, whose grandpar-ents were Inuit, was born in Fredericton NB and has been playing hockey since he was about six.
“I went through the whole minor system in Frederiction right from Mites all the way up to Midget Triple A. “I had a group of friends that I pretty well played with from PeeWee straight up until Midget and we were a very successful group on the ice. We won at every level that we played except our Midget year when I chose at 17 to play Junior—the majority of my friends stayed in Midget and ended up winning the year that I left,” he says. “That’s kind of where it all started for me.
Obviously, winning is a fun thing, but I just loved the game and wanted to see how far I could go.”
Of average size and never much of a goal scorer, Hepditch wasn’t drafted into Junior hockey.
“There are so many things that go into why you get drafted and why you don’t. I felt like my size was one of the things against me,” he recalls. “I was a big believ-
er that if I got a shot I could do it. I went to the Moncton Wildcats as a walk-on and ended up making the club there at 17.
“Every year I had to battle my way on to the team. At 20 years old is when it got extremely competitive and serious—not that the other years weren’t—as a 20 year-old the teams were only allowed to have

From page 13 three 20-year olds on the team. A lot of
the guys at that age in our league ended up making the pros, making the jump to the NHL even.”
In his final year as Junior, he got a break any aspiring coach would die for. Ted Nolan, former NHL coach, and his friend Danny Flynn were brought in to to help the team make a run for the Memorial Cup, emblematic of Canadian junior hock-ey supremacy.
Hepditch spent part of the year on the cusp—Major Junior teams can only have three 20-year-old players on the roster.
“The 20 year olds are supposed to be the elite players. I wasn’t a goal scorer. I played third line forward and defense, I really prided myself as being a team leader.”
Although at one point Nolan talked to him about what might happen if he was traded, and dangled the possibility that he could stay on with the team as a coach, Hepditch kept his spot in the lineup.
“We had a very successful team. We won the President’s Cup, then we ended up losing in the Memorial Cup final. But it was a great year. After Moncton I returned
back home to Frederiction to start univer-sity.”
The younger of two brothers, with “lots of step-brothers and sisters, Hepditch says he didn’t give much thought to his First Nations heritage as a youngster.
“My grandparents and especially my grandmother never really pushed it on me because back then a lot of people weren’t especially proud to be First Nations. She thought she was looking after my best interests because she didn’t want me to have to deal with some of the things they dealt with,” he says.
At 17, he was selected to the New Brunswick Aboriginal Team and he played in the National Aboriginal Games.
“That was a great experience,” he says. That same year he was awarded the
Tom Longboat Award for being an Aboriginal role model.
At the University of New Brunswick, Hepditch pursued a degree in kinesiology. In his fifth year, he added a degree in edu-cation to his resume.
And for all five years he played in one of the best university hockey programs in the country. One of the best? How does three national university championships in five years sound?
“Making the transition to university hockey was a big step,” he admits. “The CIS (Canadian Interuniversity Sport) is a g r e a t l e a g u e . It’s all ex-j u n i o r p l a y e r s that are older and a lot more e x p e r i -e n c e d . There’s no age limit at univer-sity. My first year my stall mate was 30 and I was 21. “
For his entire uni-v e r s i t y c a r e e r , Hepditch played on an elite team. It won national champion-ships in is first, third and final year. But it’s the first year that he talks most about.
“My first year we won Nationals in Moncton,” he says. “When I was playing in junior in Moncton we beat Quebec to win the President’s Cup and then we turned around and lost to Quebec in the Memorial Cup final. The next year UNB
lost to Moncton in the AUS final and we beat them in the final—it’s almost like a role reversal.
“It was almost like I’d lived this before, like we were in the other team’s shoes. I explained that to my team-mates and that’s one of the things the coaches still talk about, is that I kind of stepped up as a 21 year old and explained myself.
“I remember sit-ting in the dressing room and everyone was so down because we had just lost and I just stepped up and said, ‘You know what, I was in this same situation last year and nobody remembers my
team because we won a President’s Cup. They remember Quebec because they won a Memorial Cup. We still have an oppor-tunity.’
“We ended up winning although we weren’t supposed to win—that wasn’t the year we had the greatest team. That was the year that UNB went from being a really good organization to a great one—
winning makes such a difference. “
An average student in high school, Hepditch returns to the subject of Ted Nolan when he explains how much he learned from Nolan, who is Metis.
“He’s an amazing coach and an amazing person – I learned so much from him in that one year that I’ll never be able to learn any-where else. His big-gest thing was life les-sons—as a coach on the ice he didn’t just team the game, he made us understand why we were doing things, why we had to put in the time and effort to get where we want to go. That was the biggest thing for me. What I’m trying to do with the Thunder Cats now, helping the kids understand the reasons we are doing things.
“A lot of kids do the exercise and skating drills because they think it’s punishment or a way for the coach to express his power but I really explain to them that it’s not about me being able to tell you guys, it’s because you have to be able to skate and you have to be the best conditioned team. It’s a big differ-ence when they under-stand it instead of just doing it because they are told.”

VERNON ARMY CADET SUMMER TRAINING CENTRE
VERNON — The Materi family of Creston continued a long tradition of honouring a staff cadet at Vernon Army Cadet Summer Training Centre (VACSTC) in memory of Cadet Master Warrant Officer Blayne Materi, a VACSTC staff cadet who died in June 1995 from injuries sus-tained in a motor vehicle collision.
The award is presented annually by a mem-ber of the Materi family at the Okanagan Valley centre. The award recognizes a cadet who has participated in or supported activities with the local community, who has taken a personal interest in the well-being and morale of his cadets, and who respects and uses authority properly and maintains outstanding personal conduct.
Cadet Warrant Officer Rene Duguay of Victoria was awarded the Blayne Materi Citizenship Award at the final parade and sunset ceremony at VACSTC. Duguay is a member of Victoria’s 3005 Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps.
Capt. Bryanne Materi is the commanding offi-cer of 3005 Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps and the training officer at VACSTC. Her mother, Capt. Carol Materi, is the commanding officer of 1746 Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps in Creston.
After the final parade, the cadets made their way to their homes in Western Canada.
During the summer, 1,100 army cadets from Western Canada spent up to six weeks in the Okanagan Valley centre, expanding the training they receive at their home corps, developing new skills and forming friendships.

Fire Safety and Prevention
DON’T RISK YOUR MOST PRECIOUS ITEMS
A Reminder fromCreston Fire & Rescue
Creating an evacuation plan doesn’t have to be complicated
Such a plan can be established in a few minutes and then reinforced
through practice every so often to keep everyone fresh on what to do
Establish a
Home Fire Safety Plan• Begin by assessing the layout of the home. Figure out the
two best exits from the home.• If your home doesn’t have two doors, invest in a fi re ladder
so that one of the windows can be a point of exit.• Know how to gain access to the exits, including the best
path to take to avoid injury. It’s a good idea to consider a few different scenarios.A kitchen adjacent to the upstairs staircase may become engulfed in fl ames and make exit by way of staircase impossible.Just because you have doors to the outside doesn’t mean they’ll present the best type of exit.
• Sketch out the layout of the home and the escape plan. Smoke can make it diffi cult to know up from down. Be sure everyone can reach the exits even if vision is obstructed.Try it with your eyes closed.
• Check fi re alarms routinely, and change batteries at least every year.
• Make sure windows can be easily opened if they are an exit point.
• Make note of who will be helping children or the elderly out of the home.
• Establish a place where the family will meet outdoors. This area should be far enough away from the home so that everyone will be safe from smoke, fl ames and falling debris. Fires may ignite fuel explosions, so be sure the meeting spot is a good deal away.
• Children should be instructed to run to the meeting spot immediately without waiting behind for anyone to catch up. No one should reenter the home after arriving at the meeting spot.
• Do a few practice runs so that everyone will be accustomed to getting out quickly. TF128383

(NC)—Carbon monoxide has taken the lives of entire families, left scores of people with debili-tating physical and mental handicaps, and, sent hundreds more to hospital. So why do so few of us have the one inexpen-sive safety device in our homes that protects us from this deadly gas?
“Carbon monoxide safety comes down to awareness and education,” says Carol Heller, a home safety specialist with Kidde Canada. “First you need to realize the danger is very real. Second, you need to know the potential sources of CO in your home. Many people think they don't need a carbon mon-
oxide alarm because they have electric baseboard heaters. But they may have a gas water heat-er or stove, a gas or wood fire-place, or a garage or carport attached to their house. All these are potential sources of CO.”
So long as carbon monoxide is vented outside, there is no dan-
ger. But if appliances or heating systems are not properly maintained, or chimneys and vents become blocked or cracked, deadly CO can seep back into your home…and you won't even know it.
And since exposure to CO mimics the flu, many
people make the mistake of thinking the symptoms they are experiencing will just “go away” in time. So they stay home from work or school hoping to get bet-ter, when exactly the opposite happens.
“If you have potential sources of carbon monoxide in your home, installing protection is easy and inexpensive,” Heller says. “You can find CSA-approved carbon monoxide alarms in any hardware store that cost on average about two cents a day to operate over their lifespan.”
Installing one CO alarm per floor is recommended by the National Fire Protection
Association but, at a minimum, install one outside all sleeping areas. Canadians seem to prefer models that feature a continuous digital readout.
“A digital readout shows you any level of CO in your home,” says Heller. “So you can take action before the gas reaches dangerous levels. Look for mod-els where the display is continu-ous, not models where you need to physically push a button to get a reading. That way you get instant peace of mind every time you glance at the alarm and see its zero reading.”
More CO safety tips can be found on the www.safeathome.ca web site.
CO alarms provide peace of mind in home
Help is only a phone call awayDo you have concerns about home safety?
Perhaps on the installation of smoke or carbon monoxide alarms? Or recommendations for fire extinguishers and their placement? Perhaps you have recently moved into your home or had some work done. Is it safe? Are there steps you can take to make it less worrisome?
You don’t need to be an expert. The Creston Valley has plenty. Local fire departments have a wealth of expertise and up-to-date information. And the last thing they want to do is be called to fight a fire that could have been prevented. Hardware stores and specialty services are also happy to help. Don’t be afraid to ask.

In case of fi re - GET OUT AND STAY OUT – never go back into a burning building• Crawl low near the fl oor to the nearest exit maintaining contact with the wall.• Test the door by feeling it with the back of your hand. If it is hot, do not open. Use analternative route.• If the door and knob are cool, stay low with your shoul-der against the door while opening slowly. Be ready to close the door if smoke and heat rush in.
• If trapped, put as many closed doors as possible between you and the fi re, and seal all cracks in doors and windows with towels or bedding.• If your clothing catches fi re,
stop where you are, drop gently to the ground
and cover your face with your hands while rolling back-and-forth to put out the fl ames.
• Cool minor burns with cold water.
• Make sure the damper is open before you light the fi re; close it when the ashes are cool to the touch.
• Never leave the house or go to bed with a fi re burning.• Keep combustible materials a safe distance away from the fi replace.• Keep a fi replace screen in place to protect children, pets and carpet from embers.• Supervise children around the fi replace at all times.• Use dry, well-seasoned fi rewood a small amount at a time. (Never overload.)
• If you use artifi cial logs, follow the instructions on the packaging.• Have your chimney cleaned and serviced regularly.• Never use gasoline or starter fl uid in your fi replace.• Place ashes in a metal container and take them outdoors.• Install smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and remember that adequate
ventilation is key to keeping your fi replace safe. (News Canada)
As we all prepare for the frigid winter season, it’s a great time to refresh our memories about using our fi replaces safely. Fire Prevention Canada says that winter is the worst time of year
for home fi res!
TIPS TO KEEP YOUR FIREPLACE SAFE
Many fatal fi res start at night
Smoke alarms save livesWhen the rest of BC turns back the clocks on Novem-ber 4, here are some timely smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) safety tips:• At their time change, test your smoke alarm.• You have less than three minutes to es-cape a fi re. So when smoke alarms sound, everyone must know what to do and where to go. Having and practising an escape plan is essential.• Install one smoke alarm on every storey and outside bedrooms. Install inside bedrooms if you sleep with doors closed. • Ensure all smoke alarms are fully powered. Never take out batteries or remove an alarm from ceiling due to a false alarm.• If your home has any fuel-burning devices such as a gas furnace, gas water heater, gas appliances, or an attached garage or carport, install at least one CSA-approved carbon monoxide outside all sleeping areas. One per storey is recom-mended.
• Replace smoke alarms ev-ery 10 years, and CO alarms every 7-10 years (depending on manufacturer) whether
battery operated or hardwired into your
home’s electrical system.Carbon monox-ide is colour-less, odourless and tasteless. So without a CO
alarm, humans cannot detect its
presence. Despite the average home hav-
ing several potential sources of the deadly gas, studies show that nearly 60 per cent of Canadians have not installed a CO alarm. In ad-dition to being impossible to detect, CO also has another nefarious trait. Symptoms of carbon monoxide exposure mimic the fl u, without the fever. It is routinely respon-sible for thousands of clinic and hospital visits each year, and is commonly misdiag-nosed. Prolonged or extreme exposure causes nausea, diz-ziness, confusion, the loss of physical mobility, brain dam-age and ultimately, death. More home safety resources can be found on the www.safeathome.ca web site.
Investigations into home fi re deaths very often fi nd that a smoke alarm did not sound. It may have been discon-nected or not in working order. The batteries may have been dead, or some-one may have taken them out. Smoke alone won’t necessar-ily wake you up. In fact, the fumes could put you into an even deeper sleep. Often, victims never wake up. Se-
niors will often need assistance from fam-ily members to put safety measures into place. As well, family mem-bers are in the best position to reinforce the precautions necessary to help their loved ones prevent or respond to a fi re. Focus on
these six priorities to help aging family members pro-tect themselves against fi re in the home.
� INSTALL smoke alarms inside every bedroom, outside each sleeping area and on every level of the home, including the basement.� Larger homes may need ADDITIONAL smoke alarms to provide enough protection.� For the best protection, INTERCONNECT all smoke alarms so when one sounds they all sound.� An IONIZATION smoke alarm is generally more responsive to fl aming fi res and a PHOTOELECTRIC smoke alarm is generally more responsive to smoldering fi res. For the best protection, both types of alarms or combination ionization and photoelectric alarms (also known as dual sensor alarms) are recommended.� Smoke alarms should be INSTALLED away from the kitchen to prevent false alarms. Generally, they should be at least 10 feet (3 meters) from a cooking appliance.� REPLACE all smoke alarms when they are 10 years old.
Only a working smoke alarm can save your life!FIRE PREVENTION WEEK OCT. 7-14
“Fall back” to smart home safety
Analysis was undertaken on almost 50,000 fi res that occurred in Alberta, British Columbia, and Ontario over a 5-year period involving 663 fatalities. The fi ndings demonstrated that the death rate per 1,000 fi res in the absence of a present, functioning smoke alarm was 74% greater than when a functioning smoke alarm was present.

College of the Rockies’
Kimberley Campus, along with the Invermere and Fernie Campuses, will be offering train-
ing to older workers thanks to a funding of $840,000 provided by the governments of BC and
Canada through the Targeted Initiative for Older Workers. The Targeted Initiative for Older Workers Program will provide train-ing for individuals between the ages of 55 and 64 who are currently unemployed and looking to return to the workforce.
Coordinated through the Kimberley Campus, training is regionally dis-tributed and will include
six sessions throughout the East Kootenay with the inau-gural programs running in Cranbrook beginning October 15 and in Fernie starting on October 16. The program will then run in Invermere in November and again in Fernie in January, 2013.
Kimberley Campus Manager, Mike Flowers, says, “BC Stats lists the Kootenays as having the highest unemployment rate in BC at 9.4%. We are hoping to help address that through this training.” Currently, about one quarter of the East Kootenay’s
population is in the 55 to 64 age bracket.
The 14-week program includes 10 weeks of instruction in areas like computers, soft-skills, workplace skills and job-search strategies. This will be followed by a four-week job placement. Participants will receive payment for their time in the program.

“One of the best parts about the weekend was making fast friends with people who had been strangers 48 hours earlier. This trip reminded me there are people out there who are interested in the same things as I am, and now I know where to find them!”
These words, written by Thea Rodgers, a Grade 12 student at Mount Baker Secondary School in Cranbrook, nicely sum up the shared enthusiasm of the 10 East Kootenay students who partook in the fourth annual Conrad Kain Centennial Society (CKCS) Bugaboos Teens climbing program from July 20-22. She also “really enjoyed meeting our mountain guides, and learning from them and their stories.”
Sharon Wood, the first woman to become an Association of Canadian Mountain Guides (ACMG) alpine guide in Canada and first North American woman to climb Mount Everest, added her wealth of guiding and instructing experience to that of Wilmer ACMG pros Kirk Mauthner and Tim McAllister.
BC Parks rangers Amanda Weber-Roy and Rae Busse accompanied CKCS chair Pat Morrow or Wilmer to round out the adult component. Bugaboos Teens alum-nus Megan Kinley of Toby Benches prepared the meals for the group ahead of time, as she would be participat-ing in a student congress program in Beijing and couldn’t join them.
This year the students hailed mostly from the excellent outdoor skills class taught by Leigh Cormier at Mount Baker school: Noah Beek, Hannah van der Roest, Curtis Hall, Axel Chore, Hope Blisset, Thea Rodgers and Justin
Hayes. From Invermere, Alastair White and Courtney Hoffos joined the group, along with Creston’s Peter Tarrant.
“In the Bugaboos, every day was different,” said Tarrant. “The first day it was climbing through a forest to the Conrad Kain hut, and learning how to self arrest on the snow slopes above the hut with an ice ax. The second day it was mostly glacier work through thick fog. But on the third day we did everything: we hiked on a glacier, we rock climbed to the top of East Post Spire, we rap-pelled, and we hiked back down through the forest. This trip was a great life experience, and I look forward to climbing in the future. Berg heil!”
Budding film maker Curtis Hall carried a heavy pack of camera equipment and produced a video of the outing, which can be viewed at Youtube.com (search “Bugaboo Mountaineering Camp”).
Rodgers said she will return. “I can't wait to be back in the Bugs again, maybe working for BC Parks or tending to the Kain hut as a custodian. I am so grateful that I could be a part of this adventure, and would not trade it for any other weekend of my life! I really hope this camp continues to happen for teens of the Kootenays. It has opened my eyes to many possibilities, career-wise, adventure-wise and lifestyle-wise.”
Of Kain, she added: “It was incredible to learn about Conrad Kain and his history as a mountaineer. I could not imagine climbing in these mountains in 1916 with just the rudimentary mountain gear! I gained a new respect for one of histo-ry's greatest unsung heroes, and an even stronger respect for our provincial
parks.” Before they left the vicinity of the Kain hut, the
group hid a small waterproof box containing a Conrad Kain geocache prepared by Dave Humphrey (a.k.a. Scottie), a veteran geocacher from Cranbrook. In con-junction with the CKCS, Humphrey has created a series of 10 caches in key places in the Columbia Valley, Banff and Mount Robson areas that are associ-ated with Kain. The most popular cache to date, which has received nearly 1,200 visits, is near the Whyte Museum of the Canadian Rockies in Banff, and the third most popular is at the Kain interpretive panel in Radium.
Morrow praised the program’s sponsors. “The CKCS is grateful to BC Parks, BC Hydro, Canadian Mountain Holidays, the Alpine Club of Canada (ACC), members of the CKCS and ACMG, and the efforts of many individu-als in the Columbia Valley who have helped to make this a popular annual event. Over the years we’ve seen a growing interest amongst young people who are keen to connect with nature in a non-mechanized fashion. What better place than the world class Bugaboos granite play-ground right in their backyard!”
Immediately following next year’s Bugaboos Teens program, the ACC and CKCS plan to host a special climb-ing camp to be held in Mount Robson Provincial Park for both adults and youth, to commemorate the 100th anni-versary of Kain’s first ascent of Mount Robson.

This time…Every so often, opportunities to put
your spiritual principles into practice come up. How many times have you let those opportunities pass by unnoticed? I think of this slogan as the mañana slogan. It is the idea that there will always be time to practice later, but right now there are just too many other things to do.
To divide your week up into a day when you pay attention to your spiritual path and days when you do not, goes against the grain of the Zen approach. The Zen teachings look at every situa-tion as an opportunity for spiritual real-ization. In Zen practice, there are no excuses for not meditating daily, for not following Buddhism’s ethical guide-lines. There is no right or wrong time. The truth is that “this time” is the only time we have, so why not infuse it with spiritual training. Why not make every time an opportunity to practice the main points of Zen.
But what are the main points? The first point is to take the attitude
that benefiting others is more important than benefiting self. Obviously, this is a pretty major attitude shift so this prac-tice begins at the level of thought. Begin
simply, by noticing what you think about, how much your thoughts revolve around you and your wants and needs; and how often do those thoughts con-sider the wants and needs of others? How often do you have thoughts about what you could do right now, to actually benefit others?
The second point is that meditation practice and ethical behavior are more
important than studying words written in the past. The relationship between medi-tation and study is often described as being like two wings of an airplane. Both
are essential and complemen-tary. But this slogan tips the plane a tad, tilting it towards developing and sustaining daily meditation sessions and ethical awareness. Book study of historical and theo-retical knowledge only goes so far. Practice is what infuses the spiritual teachings with vitality and empowers them to transform situations and
people that you encounter as you navigate each day.
The third main point is that, of all pos-sible activities, the most important is to remember that spiritual development is the primary purpose of human life – more important than jobs, relationships, and the acquisition of knowledge or material goods. Expressing spiritual development through loving-kindness is not just a
warm fuzzy add-on, but it is the very core of a deeply spiritual life. We live in the culture of psychotherapy and self improvement, but too much focus on self can make us even more self-centered. In Buddhism, self-centeredness is the root of all suffering. This slogan encourages us to cultivate greater love, compassion, and sympathy for all sentient beings every day.
Suggested practice: Loving-kindness begins simply, with connection. Notice your interactions. Notice the ways in which you continually connect with and disconnect from others. What draws you out of yourself? What causes you to pull back?
This column is a long series of short essays exploring the meaning of the Lojong Slogans. It is inspired by the work of Judy Lief.

LOcaL newsBonners Ferry Community Choir
All singers are invited to join in the 60-70 voice Bonners Ferry Community Choir which starts rehearsals on Tues. Oct. 16 at 6:30 pm.
The choir rehearses at Trinity Lutheran Church on Cody St. in Bonners Ferry. This non-auditioned community choir is free to any who would like to participate high school age through senior citizens. Middle students are wel-
come if their parent sings in the choir as well. The choir will rehearse each Tuesday until it's umpteenth annual Christmas Concert series which will be held Fri. Dec. 21 at 7:30 pm and Sun. Dec. 23 at 3 pm. The choir has presented Christmas concerts since 1978 and per-haps even earlier, no one seems to remember the first one! This year the theme for the concerts is "Christmas Across America". Conductor is Vicki Blake Thompson who has conducted
the choir since 1997. Accompanist is Barbara Nelson. Each year CD's are made of each part so even those who don't read music well can join in the singing. Often times college students who come home for Christmas will learn the music on their own and join the choir for the final week of rehears-als. It is truly a community celebration and a long standing tradition for Bonners Ferry. For more info about the choir call Vicki at 304-0866

COLLEGE OF THE ROCKIES
Did you know that you can graduate with a bachelor of education degree with-out leaving the East Kootenay? The College of the Rockies, in conjunction with the University of Victoria, offers the full four-year bachelor of education program at COTR's Cranbrook campus.
“This program offers Kootenay resi-dents a unique opportunity to gain a Bachelor of Education degree while remaining close to home,” said Sandi Lavery, East Kootenay teacher education programs co-ordinator.
Following one year of pre-education course work, students apply to University of Victoria to be accepted into the East Kootenay teacher education program. Students in the program acquire the knowl-edge, skills and practice to become elemen-tary or middle school teachers. Once stu-dents complete the teacher education pro-gram they are eligible to apply for a teach-ing certificate in B.C. or in other provinces and countries.
“Our graduates are getting hired,” said Lavery. “Nine of our fifteen graduates in 2012 are working full-time in locations all over the world while others have secured roles as teachers on call.”
The advantages of taking a bachelor of
education degree at College of the Rockies are many. Students gain a rural teaching perspective and rural teaching is one of the fastest growing opportunities in education.
They also receive face-to-face instruction in smaller classes where they are a name and not a number.
For more information, call Hugh Moore at 250-489-2751 ext. 3329 or visit www.cotr.bc.ca/EKTEP.

With summer finally falling into autumn, the “Seasons” begin. School sea-son, soccer season, hockey season(usually) just to name a few…help us enjoy the long “winter” we must “weather” before we find ourselves once more under the Summer Sky; feeling carefree.
Perhaps art and culture arose as the brain’s answer to the sports’ brawn.
The Arts Council and its members look forward to the season finding a variety of wonderful and entertaining things to do.
The Concert Society has Lorne Elliot in town on Saturday October 20th at 7:30pm. The Canadian comedian is absolutely great. I’ve listened to him on
CBC Radio. Seasons tickets are available at Creative Fix and tickets for individual p e r f o r -m a n c e s are avail-able at Black Bear Books.
Extravaganza 2012 put on by the Creston Valley Music Teachers Association
is happening Friday October 12th at 7:00pm and Sunday the 14th, at 2:30pm.
Kokanee Brass, Key of She, Bob Van Der Poel and more.
The Library Show is back for another season. “Shutter” fea-tures the photog-raphy of Howard Smith, Jim Smith and Jeff Banman.
It can be seen during Library hours until November 17th, 2012.
Art in the Chamber currently has two exhibits on. Works by the Creston Fibre Artisans and their “Slice” of Creston are in the Chamber until November 19th. So too, are the works of the Go-Go-Grannies who - raise money for grannies in Africa to look after kids with hiv/aids.
Having entered the season of hockey parent just recently (my grandson started to play) I’ve discovered that arts & culture is definitely brains answer to brawn’s sport. I’m guessing in the perfect world we’d get just enough of both.
I’m eagerly looking forward to the 2012/13 season…let the games begin.
