A preliminary hearing has begun for the man accused of killing 16-year-old CJ Fowler.

Damien Taylor is charged with second-degree murder in the death of Fowler, whose body was found in Guerin Creek near downtown Kamloops on Dec. 5, 2012.

Taylor’s preliminary hearing, which began yes-terday (Sept. 22), is scheduled for four days and will hear testimony from 16 witnesses.

Police have said Fowler and Taylor had been involved in a dating relationship at the time and had travelled together from Terrace, where they lived, to Kamloops.

The two had been in Kamloops visiting friends and police believe Fowler was planning to return to Terrace prior to her death.

Taylor, 22, was arrested after an RCMP investi-gation that lasted more than a year.

On Jan. 10 of this year, Mounties took him into custody in Kelowna, where he had been living.

A preliminary hearing is a pre-trial matter held to determine if there is enough evidence to go to trial.

All evidence and testimony presented is subject to a publication ban.

PRELIM INTO MURDER OF TEEN BEGINS

THE ACCUSED:Damien Taylor is charged with second-degree murder.

THE VICTIM:Teenager CJ Fowler was killed in December 2012.

SLURPING FOR THE FOOD BANKThree-year-old Dominic Marchi gets some sips in before having to share his cream soda and 7-Up Slurpee with mom Kim on Friday, Sept. 19, at the Sa-Hali 7-Eleven store. Friday was the day 7-Eleven customers could name their price for a Slurpee, with all proceeds going to Food Banks Canada.

School back in session

School halls in Kamloops were filled yesterday (Sept. 22) with a sound that’s been missing for some time — children’s voices.

However, with a contract in place and the school year begin-ning again this week, there remain some issues to be resolved beyond decorating the walls and getting final class lists confirmed.

David Komljenovic, president of the Kamloops-Thompson Teachers Association (KTTA), said the Kamloops-Thompson school district 73 opted for a two-day phase-in for kinder-garten students, while other districts in the province are allowing four days.

“We would have preferred a gradual entry so the kids can take the time to get used to their new sur-roundings,” he said.

School-district Supt. Karl deBruijn said with the number of lost school days and

the fact parents have been inconvenienced by the teachers’ strike, his administration decided on the two-day plan, with kinder-garten in full session on Thursday, Sept. 25.

The goal is to mini-mize the number of instructional hours that need to be made up somehow through this school year, he said.

Otherwise, deBruijn said, the first day of school went well.

He expects to have a better idea of total enrolment later this week.

There are other details to be worked out — class-prep-aration times have changed in the new contract and a planned professional-development in-service day on Friday, Sept. 26, has been moved to November.

Before classes start-ed at mid-morning yesterday, some teach-ers were asking each other how to handle angry parents they might encounter.

INSIDE KTW

STEPPING ON THE SEPTEMBER GRASSJames Garner and Erin Aarenritchie-Bonat take advantage of a perfect September weekend by visiting Riverside Park. The month has been spectacular, weather-wise, and, despite forecast showers today (Sept. 23) through Thursday, the sun is set to return by Friday.

A former Kamloops RCMP jail guard compared the atmosphere in the detach-ment to that of a hockey team’s locker room while describing a number of police officers and municipal employees watching via closed circuit video two drunk female pris-oners engage in sexyal acts four years ago.

David Tompkins took the stand yesterday (Sept. 22) in RCMP Cpl. Rick Brown’s trial on one count of breach of trust by a public officer.

“It’s kind of akin to guys having a hockey game and they just won the hockey game,” Tompkins said.

“They’re boisterous.”Brown was charged following an incident

in the cellblock of the Kamloops RCMP’s Battle Street detachment in the early-morn-ing hours of Aug. 18, 2010.

Brown, who was watch commander at the time and the de facto head of the detachment, was among a group of six RCMP officers and jail guards, as well as a municipally employed clerk, who watched via closed-circuit video as two intoxicated prisoners engaged in explicit sex acts in a drunk tank.

Four people — Brown and Tompkins, as well as constables Evan Elgee and Stephen Zaharia — were initially charged.

The counts against Elgee and Zaharia were later stayed, but Tompkins pleaded guilty last year and was placed on a year-long probation term.

In court, Tompkins said he and Brown were in a room used by guards to moni-tor prisoners when they noticed the two women beginning to become intimate.

“I said, ‘Well, I guess we should move them,’” Tomkins said.

“He [Brown] said, ‘Let’s just wait and see

what happens.’”Tompkins said he was uncomfortable

with what the women were doing and that he stopped watching the video feed.

However, in a recorded phone call played in court, in which Tompkins calls watch clerk Richard Beveridge, he sounds excited.

“You gotta see this,” Tompkins says on the tape.

“Browny’s down here and he’s going, ‘You gotta see this.’”

Court has earlier heard “Browny” was Brown’s nickname at the detachment.

In court, Tompkins said he was trying to get more people to come to the guard room so that action would be taken to separate the two women.

Tompkins said Beveridge asked Brown if he was going to break up the sex acts, but Brown said there was nowhere to move the women.

With food banks throughout the country shutting down from lack of support, the people who run the Kamloops agency con-tinue to marvel at the way the community rallies around it.

Bernadette Siracky, executive director of the Kamloops Food Bank, said “the food just flowed” during the 13th Rotary Food Drive on Saturday, Sept. 20.

At the end of the day, 56,000 pounds of food had been col-lected and will help keep the shelves stocked until Christmas.

In years past, Siracky said, the collection was housed in two storage areas but, with the completion of the addition to the Wilson Street site, volunteers

can watch as the shelves fill up again.

“It brings a beautiful energy to our building,” she said.

A food bank in London, Ont., closed last year and one in Montreal has turned to grocery stores to help it stay in opera-tion.

Many others are run only with volunteers.

The semi-annual drive in Kamloops — promoted by inserting yellow plastic collec-tion bags in every copy of the Sept. 18 edition of Kamloops This Week — is a growing com-munity event, Siracky said, with Rotarians out collecting the bags of food and an army of volunteers waiting for the service-club members to arrive at Interior Vault, where the col-

lection, weighing and packing is done.

“People call us to volunteer,” Siracky said, noting this year’s crew included cadets, scouts, seniors, local politicians and people from Valley First Credit Union, Tenisci Piva accounting firm and NRI Distribution — a cross-section of the community.

Siracky said the drive itself is inclusive as anyone, from a toddler to a great-grandmother, can put a can into the bag to be collected.

She said the Kamloops agen-cy is unique among food banks not only because it continues to thrive and serve a growing number of clients, but because it also provides food to 42 agen-cies to provide meals to people they help.

The federal Kamloops-Thompson-Cariboo Liberal constit-uency association will choose its candidate for next year’s federal elec-tion at a nomination meeting on Saturday, Oct. 4 — but one of the three candidates has dropped out due to a

family emergency.Peter Mutrie told

KTW he has informed the party he won’t be running for the right to represent the Liberals.

Mutrie’s son, Evan, is fighting a serious autoimmune disor-der sparked by a viral infection and is now in Vancouver General Hospital.

The 19-year-old is a defensive back with

the Kamloops Broncos of the B.C. Football Conference.

“I’ve had to let that go,” Mutrie said of the nomination.

“I can’t go in with half a focus.”

The two remaining candidates running for the nomination are school teacher Steve Powrie and business consultant Niki Remesz

The nomination

meeting will be held at Thompson Rivers University’s Irving K. Barber Centre.

The two candidates will give speeches at 6 p.m., followed by vot-ing until 8 p.m.

The winner of the contest will face incumbent Conservative MP Cathy McLeod and NDP can-didate Bill Sundhu, a city lawyer.

She wants her Lululemon backA Kamloops woman has filed

a lawsuit seeking more than $500 from a former acquain-tance who she claims won’t give back her Lululemon shirt — including $200 for “stress” caused by the incident.

Darlene Hay filed a notice of claim in Kamloops provincial

court on Sept. 17, seeking $130 compensation for the shirt from Francyne Joe.

In addition, Hay is seek-ing $40 for a pair of boots, $13 for “courier service,” $200 for “stress” and $120 in court costs.

“Francyne won’t give my clothes back after several times

asking for them back,” the notice of claim reads.

The claim states Joe has had the items since June.

Once Joe is served, she’ll have 14 days to file a response.

None of the allegations in the statement of claim have been proven in court.

TRU suing to retrieve tuitionThompson Rivers University is taking two for-

mer students to court, seeking more than $37,000 in unpaid tuition.

The university has filed two separate notices of claim in Kamloops provincial court seeking alleg-edly unpaid tuition in the amounts of $22,490.94 from Charlene Muchipisi and $14,600 from Birna Thorbjorg Long-Hjorleifsdottir.

The documents state both students were enrolled at TRU between the fall of 2007 and the winter of 2011.

Both documents state “the university does not provide a mechanism for tuition to be paid over time.”

TRU is also seeking court costs of $156 from each former student.

Once they have been served, Muchipisi and Long-Hjorleifsdottir will have 14 days to file responses.

None of the allegations in the notices of claim have been proven in court.

A shockwave is an intense, but very short energy wave travelling faster than the speed of sound. The basic technology involved with extra corporeal shockwave technology has been used for decades on millions of people.

Certain musculoskeletal and orthopedic conditions have a hard time healing due to the development of unhealthy, disorganized tissue in the area of injury. Over time, this dysfunctional tissue limits the body’s ability to repair and heal itself. Research has shown Shockwave Therapy to be highly effective in treating musculoskeletal and orthopedic conditions be stimulating the body’s own natural healing response.

A city man is in police custody after a standoff following an alleged armed robbery on the North Shore on Friday, Sept. 19.

Kamloops RCMP Cpl. Cheryl Bush said police were called to a reported armed robbery at Tranquille Market, on 12th Street and Tranquille Road, at about 1:45 p.m.

The clerk said a man flashed a firearm before making off with an undisclosed amount of cash and fleeing on foot.

Bush said Mounties received calls indicating

the suspect had entered a housing complex on Singh Street and Lethbridge Avenue.

Officers set up a perimeter around the building and evacuated neighbouring suites.

RCMP emergency-response team members eventually entered the unit at about 7:30 p.m. and arrested a 44-year-old man.

Bush said investigators found two BB guns inside the apartment.

Facing charges is Feroz Kamahl Buksh of Kamloops.

Arrest follows North Shore standoff

An hours-long police opera-tion in Sahali on Friday night (Sept. 19) was the result of a prank phone call known as “swatting.”

Kamloops Mounties rushed to 1775 McKinley Court at about 7:20 p.m. after receiving a call from a male who claimed he was armed, had shot someone

inside a home at that address and would shoot any responding police officers.

The RCMP’s emergency-response team was deployed, along with other Mounties and paramedics, and the area on McKinley Court was cordoned off for hours, until all units in the townhouse

complex were cleared.Ultimately, police deter-

mined the call had been a prank, one intended to have Mounties rush to a non-existent event, a practice known as “swatting” and one that can lead to criminal charges.

Mounties are still investigat-ing who made the call.

PRANK CALL BRINGS OUT ERT

Kamloops RCMP cordoned off McKinley Court on Friday, Sept. 19, after receiving a call from a male who claimed to have shot someone. The call was eventually determined to be a prank.

What has a 30-year-old North Shore resident who last made headlines pick-ing up needles around McDonald Park plan-ning a run for mayor?

“I’m bored,” said Ben James.

“I’ve got nothing else to do and Kamloops needs a new mayor. We need some fresh blood in this town.”

James, who previ-ously made an unsuc-cessful bid for city council in 2008, said he thinks Kamloopsians have checked out of politics and hopes his campaign can capture the interest of the 70 per cent of eligible vot-ers who sat out the last election.

“There’s a reason why people don’t vote for these elections,” he said.

“They’re terribly boring, right? It’s the exact same people run-ning for the exact same positions. If you look at the council, it’s hardly changed at all over the years.”

James said he believes people who aren’t voting are less pleased with the status quo and more turned

off by the city’s political culture.

While he didn’t have a specific platform for KTW, he said he hopes to shake up the city.

“Kamloops is a great

place to live but it’s plagued by conven-tion,” he said.

“If you look at the

town, we have a very a beautiful town, but we’re a very ho-hum town. We’re a drive-

thru. We have Wal-Marts, McDonalds — just the most bland places to work, places to shop.”

James was previous-ly in the news in 2013, when he started col-lecting and disposing of discarded needles his neighbours were too scared to pick up.

When asked why he would make a good mayor, James said he’s got a thick skin and isn’t worried about criticism in his crusade to shake up Kamloops.

“I’m unemployed, so I have nothing but time to devote to it,” he said.

“I’m strongly opin-ionated, so I can’t be bought off by, say, Ajax.

“I don’t care what people think, really.”

James said his chal-lenge is a serious one.

“Whether or not I’ll get in, we’ll see how it goes,” he said. “But, if Kamloops decides they want to try me out, then they’re more than welcome to vote for me.”

James has two oppo-nents in the mayoral race: Mr. Open Pitbelly (a performance-art pro-test by Elaine Sedgman) and incumbent mayor Peter Milobar.

Notice of Temporary Closures


Kamloops Mayor Peter Milobar was in Prince Edward Island on the weekend, attending the

annual Communities in Bloom conference and inviting one and all to the Tournament Capital in 2015, when the event is held here.

On the election front, Milobar’s prospects may be coming up roses if more mayoral candidates of the fringe variety declare for the Nov. 15 civic vote — the more to split the vote.

Milobar is already campaign-ing, with large bus ads and a social-media effort underway as “The Kamloops Way.”

Incumbents in municipal elections have a big advantage in name-recognition alone, particu-larly when voter turnout routinely stalls at about the 30 per cent mark (though a Kamloops initia-tive — Vote 50 — is working to have at least half of all registered voters in the city cast a ballot this year).

In the 2011 civic election, Milobar was nearly shocked out of office by Dieter Dudy, a Westsyde farmer who joined the race late and who almost pulled off a shocking upset at the polls.

Milobar was re-elected by the razor-thin margin of 235 votes.

It could be argued Dudy would today be mayor had two fringe candidates not entered the race.

In 2011, Gordon Chow garnered 441 votes and Brian Alexander received 251 votes.

Assuming those voting for Chow and Alexander were actu-ally casting ballots against the status quo, it can be argued the majority, if not all, of Chow’s and

Alexander’s 692 votes would have gone to Dudy — propelling him into city hall.

In fact, four days before the election, Alexander was urging his supporters to vote for Dudy, while a fifth mayoral candidate, Frank Stewart, pulled out to support Dudy.

In 2008, by contrast, Milobar was elected mayor by a landslide, with his 13,000 votes nearly three times that of his two challeng-ers — Murphy Kennedy and Alexander — combined.

This year, the first of a new four-year municipal cycle in B.C., Dudy is running for city council, while Milobar has thus far two challengers — and both of the fringe variety.

First up was performance artist Elaine Sedgman, who wants to run under her anti-Ajax mine character’s name — Mr. Openpitbelly.

While there is humour in her campaign, her message is decid-edly serious and she may indeed garner more votes than expected strictly from the anti-Ajax crowd.

Then, four days ago, Ben James, called KTW to announce his mayoral candidacy.

As far as I can tell, James

is best-known as the North Kamloops man who made the news in 2012 for taking it upon himself to clean up discarded needles in his neighbourhood.

He also ran for city council in 2008, finishing 24th of 26 candi-dates.

Of course, the wildcard in the entire mayoral race remains the decision yet to be reached by Denis Walsh, owner of MovieMart and former city councillor.

There is a significant segment of the Kamloops populace that wants to see Walsh run as the candidate to upset the status quo apple cart, to become the 2014 answer to Dudy.

Walsh is an active member of the community, involved in myri-ad organizations and causes.

He was also a popular city councillor, finishing fifth of 26 can-didates en route to being elected in 2008.

To this day, Walsh has yet to make a decision, but has told KTW he is considering a run.

Unless and until Walsh declares (and he has until Oct. 10 to file nomination papers), Milobar may be looking at a repeat of 2008 as fringe candidates line up, each one sharing a few what-the-hell votes as they clear a path for the incumbent.

• The election of 2011 was historic in Kamloops in that five women — the most ever in one election — were voted onto city council.

Even more impressive is the fact only seven of 26 city-council candidates were female.

Oddly enough, Sedgman/Mr. Open Pitbelly is the first female mayoral candidate in Kamloops since 1999.

VIEWPOINT

Fringe festival begins anew

CITY SCORES TD WITH B.C. LIONS

When Wally Buono left Vancouver for a quick day trip to Kamloops last week, he came to the Tournament Capital to help make an announce-ment that bodes well for the economy and repu-tation of the city.

Buono, who this past weekend was inducted into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame during a magical weekend in Montreal, made that visit to Kamloops eight days ago to further cement the B.C. Lions’ relationship with the City of Kamloops.

The Lions began play in 1954 and have held training camps in various Lotusland locales during those 60 years. However, the six-time Grey Cup champions have not spent as much time in one location as they have in Kamloops — at least, not in the modern era of the squad.

Buono came to Kamloops to join city officials to announce an exten-sion to a previous extension that will see the Lions continue to call

Kamloops training-camp home through the 2017 pre-season.

The announcement means the Leos will have held training camp in Kamloops for eight consec-utive years by the time the new contract expires in 2017.

And, that contract may extend even longer.As Lions’ vice-president of business George

Chayka said last week: “It’s been difficult to leave the City of Kamloops.”Having the Lions call Kamloops training-camp home is good for the

city’s reputation, but it is even better for the bottom line of various busi-nesses.

While the city pays the team $40,000 per year to hold camp here, there is a estimated economic spinoff of about $300,0000.

Add to that the fact Tourism Kamloops has promotional videos shown on the big screen at B.C. Place Stadium and the city’s ability to secure eight years of this agreement is the economic equivalent of hoisting Albert Henry George Grey’s Cup.

Without a doubt, city hall has once again scored a touchdown.

Editor:I have four children, three of whom are not

typical learners.Although I’m not exactly sure what a typi-

cal learner is, none of us learn in the same way.

I found the labels that needed to be attached to my children in order for them to get support wrong on so many levels.

I advocated for normalcy at every turn, inherently knowing that segregating or impos-ing repressive limitations would be so damag-ing.

Fear for their futures consumed me and my worry was not going to help them.

I found hope in the fact too many success-ful people to name were at one time labelled with a learning struggle, and the strong belief that the qualities my kids excelled in — such as kindness, hard work and determination — is what success really looks like.

I encouraged them with Jack Layton’s “Never let them tell you it can’t be done.”

An aquaintaince recently said that kids with extra needs should not be in the same classrooms as other kids.

I pointed out that every student has

extra needs, including gifted learners, and that their teachers want to be able to include and support them all.

That is why they are standing up so pas-sionately for class size and composition.

Classrooms need extra support and rea-sonable student numbers so all of our kids get their equal share of the teacher’s time.

The reality is extra needs are not only learning disabilities, but often also include nutrition, addiction and home-trauma issues.

These issues can and do cause students to fall through the cracks.

My kids went on to achieve good grades and they either have or will graduate with their hard-earned Dogwood diplomas.

The oldest are now at Thompson Rivers University, independently successful in their chosen programs.

They work and voted in the last election, but I am most proud of the fact that overcoming this adversity has made them compassionate about the adversity others face.

I wasn’t the only one who believed in my children.

I have immense gratitude for the many

amazing teachers and CRA’s along the way who championed their ability to be success-ful, encouraging them to push past challenges while focusing on strengths, looking beyond the assessments to their true potential.

They were there for my family when we were misunderstood and, at times, facing bias and ignorance.

And now it is our turn to support them.

I heard a comment that teachers were “just being greedy.”

Ironically, teachers, many parents of chil-dren in the public-school system, were living without their paycheques while they held the line for better learning conditions for all of our kids.

They deserve our respect.My family proudly supports the B.C.

Teachers’ Federation with the knowledge no worthwhile change was ever easily achieved.

We want to now encourage them with Layton’s advice: “Never let them tell you it can’t be done.”

FAITH COLUMNIST FANS FLAMES OF INTOLERANCEEditor:

Re: Chris Kempling’s Faith col-umn of Sept. 18 (‘Examining the appeal of Jihad in the West’):

I am not Muslim, but have considerable understanding of the religion and do not appreciate falsely blaming any religion.

Kempling is correct that the rationale is “complex.”

But, then to claim Canada is no longer a Christian country is absurd, in that it never was a 100

per cent Christian country if it is accepted that First Nations had been here before us.

But, that is a relatively small issue.

The bigger one is that he claims Islam is “simple to join . . . with clear standards of morality,” etc.

Well, yes, but then so is a Christian denomination equally easy to join if one prescribes to its own “clear standards of morality.”

Or pick any other religion.

He then says the “military life is highly masculine, with clear lines of authority,” etc.

This is true anywhere. He then adds it’s the “attrac-

tion of power inherent in being a soldier and the affirmation of the masculine ideal” that draws young men. If that were the simple case, they could join the Canadian mili-tary.

He finally mentions “radical Islam.” To this point, he mischar-

acterised “Islam” without the adjective “radical.”

Radicalism is not unique to Islam, but present in every main-stream religion.

By his absurdities and false attributions, Kempling further fans flames of intolerance rather than contributing to better understand-ing of the complexities of the jiha-dist aura.

TAKE ACTION AT:


As a $1.16-million paving project on Westsyde Road draws to a close, city staff are asking both the con-tractor and the driving public to check their behaviour in the con-struction zone.

The project covers a span of the road from the Halston overpass to Franklin Road.

Work has been ongoing since late August and has frus-trated some drivers in the area.

In an email to KTW, Kirsten McAndrew said the project is unsafe and had led to several damaged vehicles.

“The randomly scattered bollards, tubular traffic cones,

or whatever they are called, are the worst.

“There’s no clear indication of which lane(s) is/are closed,” McAndrew, a Calgarian visiting Kamloops, wrote.

McAndrew said several people have reported having their vehicles damaged by unmarked holes or, in one instance, “from a member of the paving crew not paying atten-tion and inadvertently stepping close enough to be clipped.”

WorkSafeBC senior manager Trish Knight Chernecki confirmed a driver clipped a traf-fic controller on the Westsyde project in early September.

Chernecki encour-aged drivers to slow down and pay more attention to the posi-tion of workers on the road.

Chernecki said WorkSafeBC has not had any requests for action about the Westsyde project, but has a routine inspec-tion of the project scheduled.

City of Kamloops capital-projects man-ager Darren Crundwell said the city is con-cerned about reports of unsafe conditions at the site and has asked contractor BA Dawson Blacktop to revisit its traffic plan for the project.

“We do have a

pretty detailed con-tract that does cover off safety and it is the contractor’s responsi-bility,” Crundwell said.

“But, when they’re not following, we don’t turn a blind eye by any means,” he said.

Crundwell said it appears some of the project’s issues have more to do with driver speed.

“We actually con-tacted the RCMP last week to have more of a presence on the site,” he said.

“I think it’s helped, although I heard there were some delays and issues on the week-end.”

Crundwell said major paving works

should wrap up by the end of this week, though line painting and landscaping will carry on into early October.

Overall, he believes the project has gone well.

“Probably pub-lic perception when they’re going through a project like that is it’s never finished soon enough,” Crundwell said.

“But, I don’t think there’s been anything out there that’s out of the ordinary.”

Mike Smith, vice-president of opera-tions at BA Dawson Blacktop, did not return requests for comment by KTW.

CITY SENDS FIVE TO 2014 UBCMKamloops’ mayor and city

councillors are making the rounds with provincial min-isters this week as the annual Union of B.C. Municipalities convention gets underway in Whistler.

The convention, which runs until Friday, Sept. 26, is a chance for local govern-ments around the province to lobby the government as a collective and one-on-one.

Also on the agenda are study sessions on topics such as dealing with a natu-ral disaster, along with a host of political speakers.

Premier Christy Clark will address the convention on Friday.

Coun. Tina Lange, one of five Kamloops attendees, said she expects positive results when she, Mayor Peter Milobar and council-lors Marg Spina, Pat Wallace and Arjun Singh sit down with various ministers over the course of the week.

Topics of discussion are expected to include the pro-posed Ajax copper and gold mine south of Kamloops and the city’s bid to expand its boundaries to include New Gold Mine to the west.

“It’s quite interesting. It reminds me of speed dat-ing,” Lange said.

“You’ve got the minister and their people there and you’re got 15 minutes.

“You go in, lay it on the line and Peter is — it’s one of his best strengths, his deal-ing with the ministers.

“He’s direct with the asks.“He doesn’t beat around

the bush, which they appre-ciate.”

Resolutions up for debate by delegates at this year’s convention touch on recy-cling, property-tax rates for the liquefied natural-gas industry, compensation for cities whose fire services serve as first responders dur-ing medical emergencies and more.

The City of Kamloops is backing a resolution of its own, which calls on the province to expand the pow-ers of bylaw officers so they may rescue distressed ani-mals from vehicles.

Currently, provincial law only allows RCMP and SPCA animal cruelty offi-cers to break animals out of vehicles.

Lange said she believes much of UBCM’s value comes not from lobbying, but from the opportunity to talk with councillors from other parts of the province.

“Half the value of going to these conferences is sitting with a stranger and asking what they’re doing in their community,” she said.

“You get all kinds of neat ideas and, if nothing else, you feel like at least we’re not the only ones.

“We’ve all got our prob-lems.”

Singh, meanwhile, is hop-ing to re-capture his seat on the UMBC executive board when elections are held this week.

Spina is also a member of the board, as president of the Southern Interior Local Government Association.

Sun Rivers wins national Bloom awardSun Rivers Resort Community

is a national champion in the 2014 Communities in Bloom competition.

The national and international com-petition’s various winners were revealed on Saturday, Sept. 20, in Charlottetown.

Sun Rivers was the national award winner in the 1,001-5,000 population category, besting Bruderheim, Alta., Carbonear, N.L., Harrison Hot Springs, Indian Head, Sask., and Windsor, N.S.

Judges made a note of Sun Rivers’ edible gardening.

“What a tremendous honour to go up against some of the finest communities in Canada and to come out at the top”, said Karri Loadman, community admin-istrator at Sun Rivers.

In 2013 and 2012, Sun Rivers received five blooms at the national level.

Headed by Loadman, and communi-ty Communities in Bloom chairwoman Viki Bentley, Sun Rivers has been adher-ing to the organization’s principles for the past six years.

“The sense of belonging within the community and participation in com-munity events has strengthened as the community has evolved,” said Leslie Brochu, the resort community’s vice-president of marketing and public rela-tions.

“Sun Rivers has benefitted immense-ly by embracing the CiB principles. Sun Rivers is all about building community.”

The City of Kamloops, which will

host the 2015 Communities in Bloom national and international awards cer-emony, was among non-evaluated cit-ies or towns recognized in the Circle of Excellence category.

Communities in Bloom is a Canadian non-profit organization committed to fostering civic pride, environmen-tal responsibility and beautification through community involvement and the challenge of a national program, with focus on the enhancement of green spaces in communities

It was established with the guid-ance of Britain in Bloom, Tidy Towns of Ireland and Villes et Villages Fleuris in France. Communities in Bloom held its first edition in 1995.

LOCAL NEWS

On a Facebook page with many KTTA members, Komljenovic posted that the best

reply would be:“Every child

deserves more support. “We stood up to get

more support for stu-dents and to ensure the

system meets the needs of students. We didn’t fully achieve that, but change will start hap-pening this year. We returned to work once

we had another way to advocate for that sup-port which is through the courts.”

One lingering reality from the five-

week labour dispute, Komljenovic said, is there will be anger.

“And I would say there are a lot upset here,” he said. “It will

take time for the heal-ing to happen.”

Some of that was shown on the same Facebook page, where teachers posted and commented on a rumour they had heard regarding savings the province netted from the labour impasse would not be coming back to school districts as had been promised.

Scott Sutherland of the Ministry of Education’s commu-nications department said money saved to the end of June, a month that saw rotat-ing strikes by the B.C. Teachers’ Federation and, eventually, a lock-out by the government, will be going to the learning-improvement fund as promised, with 20 per cent of the sav-ings remaining in each district.

Money saved from

Sept. 2 (when school was supposed to begin) to Sept. 19 (the last day of labour action) will be used to pay the $40 daily grant to parents of pre-teens in the public-education sys-tem for each day their child could not go to school.

Any money left after those payments are made will be subject to discussions between the ministry and school districts.

DAVID KOMLJENOVIC:KTTA president notes anger persists.

Defence to call no witnesses

“All of the sudden, Elgee showed up, Zaharia, [RCMP Const. Bryce] Fiegehen. I went, ‘What am I supposed to do now?’” Tompkins said.

“If you tell the watch commander what’s going on, we’ve been told in the past, then it’s no longer your problem.

“It’s up to the watch commander to decide if he wants to do anything at all. I can say everybody saw and knew what was going on in there.”

Brown has been on paid administrative leave since August 2010.

Tompkins remains employed by the City of Kamloops, though not as a jail guard. He works in the parks department.

In testimony on Friday, Sept. 19, Zaharia — seen laughing on a closed-circuit video — testified he was joking with another officer about a soon-to-be-released Hollywood movie, not about two drunk female prisoners engaging in sex acts on the video monitors in front of them.

Zaharia said he was actually joking with Elgee about an upcoming Hollywood release.

“Him and I are both movie buffs — we go to the movies a lot,” Zaharia said.

“We were talking about what we were going to see. At that time, Resident Evil 3 was coming out in 3D. We were discussing how badly it was going to bomb — and it did.”

Zaharia said he glanced at the monitor and saw two prisoners lying down and fondling each other, but didn’t think much of it.

“My supervisor [Brown] was standing beside me,” he said. “I didn’t do anything because nobody else was doing anything.”

The Crown closed its case yesterday and defence lawyer Glen Orris said he won’t be call-ing any evidence.

Closing arguments are expected to take place tomorrow (Sept. 24).

All of Canada is invited to participate in this year’s National Forest Week from Sept. 21 to 27, 2014. This year’s theme “Sunrise in the Forest” sheds light on the great opportunity, rewards innovation, diversity, and sustainability within Canada’s forest sector.

Established circa 1920 as Forest Fire Prevention Week, the intention of National Forest Week was to encourage greater public awareness towards Canada’s forests. At the time, there was no apparent shortage of trees for industrial expansion – the greatest threat came from forest fires, due mainly to human causes. Since then National Forest Week, as it was renamed in 1967, has evolved to encompass the many and varied human and environmental aspects of Canada’s forest resources – past, present and future. Although special activities are promoted across Canada, National Forest Week remains first and foremost a challenge to individual Canadians to learn more about their forest heritage and support greater recognition of this valuable resource.

National Tree Day, which takes place during National Forest Week on Wednesday, Sept. 24, will serve as a celebration for all Canadians to appreciate the great benefits that trees provide us —clean air, wildlife habitat, reducing energy demand and connecting with nature.

Check out the official website at nationaltreeday.ca for more information and events.

National Forest Week is an initiative of the Canadian Institute of Forestry and the Canadian Forestry Association. The BC Provincial Coalition is a group of companies and associations within the B.C. forestry industry who present the National Forest Week program in B.C. It was established in 2013 with the overarching goal of showing young people in BC that they can enjoy time spent outdoors and learn more about the different uses of BC’s forests including wood products, jobs, recreation and spiritual values. For a list of events and more information about National Forest Week in B.C., visit the Association of BC Forest Professionals at www.abcfp.c

NATIONAL FOREST WEEK

This year’s theme, Sunrise in the Forest, not only speaks to the natural beauty of B.C.’s forests, but the resiliency of the forest sector. Since the downturn of 2009, B.C.’s forest economy has been steadily recovering. From 2009 to 2013, timber harvesting has increased 47%, the value of B.C.’s forest product exports increased by 53% to a total of $11.6 billion and employment increased by 13% providing 58,000 direct jobs throughout the province.

In 2009, government introduced the Wood First Act to require that wood be considered as a primary building material in public sector construction, and 53 local governments, have followed suit by adopting Wood First bylaws, policies or resolutions of their own. Changes to the BC Building Code in 2009 increasing the maximum height of wood frame residential construction from four storeys to six, has translated into over 200 mid-rise buildings completed or under construction.

To ensure we have forests for future generations to enjoy, companies are legally required to reforest the areas they harvest. While an average of 200 million seedlings are planted each year, in 2014, we managed to plant over 240 million. We manage our forests for 11 different values, including provisions for wildlife habitat, cultural heritage, biodiversity and recreation.

The provincial National Forest Week coalition has also produced a Tree Identification App. It will be available for download from http://www.abcfp.ca/about_us/events/national_forest_week.asp on Sept. 23. The app provides photos and information on every native tree found in B.C., and also allows you to take photos and record notes and GPS the location of your favourite trees!

I encourage you to take the time to enjoy and learn more about B.C.’s forests this National Forest Week.

NATIONAL Forestry week

�e Association of BC Forest Professionals is encouraging BC residents to not only spend some time learning about the province’s forests this National Forest Week, but also consider jobs in the sector.

Casey Macaulay, registered professional forester and associate registrar for the Association said of the 5,300 members they have, close to 300 reside in Kamloops.

“That’s a fairly large number because we are a major regional centre,” he said.

He attributed it to the two forestry-related government offices in Kamloops as well as the forestry companies within the outlying areas of the Thompson Nicola — Tolko to the north, Interfor in Adams Lake and West Fraser near 100 Mile House.

Most of the local members hold traditional forestry jobs. Many are involved with harvesting, planting preparations or silviculture — controlling and monitoring growth and health of trees.

“When we plant the trees we ensure that they are growing and well on their way, and for every tree that is cut there are several that are planted in its place,” Macaulay said.

On the government side, foresters work to uphold rules and regulations relating to the industry and authorize activity. Foresters are also employed in consulting fields with companies like CN Rail, fisheries and municipalities.

Amanda Brittain, director of communications for the association said they see a high demand for professionals with a post-secondary degree in forestry. The University of British Columbia and the University of Northern British Columbia are currently the main post-secondary institutions that offer degree programs in forestry.

Although the forestry sector has struggled at times throughout the last ten years, Macaulay maintains that opportunities within the sector are plentiful as the industry is being rejuvenated.

“Right now the industry is enjoying a bit of a reprieve from the major economic meltdown of the last decade or so,” he said. “They are enjoying much better prices.”

Because the industry is very sensitive to U.S. housing starts, the American recession had a negative impact on B.C.’s forestry sector. But, the industry has always been cyclic, tending to see five-year highs followed by two-year lows, Macaulay said.

“Now we are coming back to the top end of that cycle again and that’s why we are seeing such high demand and good prices and I think people are pretty

happy with their opportunities,” he said.

The industry is also dealing with the repercussions of the mountain pine beetle, which killed off many of the province’s trees. The pest has left the industry with a slight supply shortage.

“It’s forcing everyone to work a little but harder and deal with a little less volume coming out of the forests, so the mills are feeling that bit,” Macaulay said. “But, there is still a high high demand for forestry skill set and that’s not going away any time soon.”

In addition to regulating the forestry professionals the Association of BC Forest Professionals maintains a growing advocacy mandate. The association advocates for good forest stewardship on behalf of the people of B.C., ensuring the province’s forests are maintained and utilized in the best interest of the public.

“The pressures we see right now on us on the environment, the concerns that different interest groups have, they are growing over time,” Macaulay said. “Our answer to that is to put more energy more time more resources into advocating for sound forestry practices and good environmental stewardship.”

Most recently, the association, along with the College of Applied Biology, the Association of Professional Biology and the Planning Institute of British Columbia, pledged joint action on climate change. Together they represent more than 9,000 forest professionals, professional biologists and technologists and professional planners.

The statement commits the professional associations to take steps to enable and encourage their members to “incorporate the best available climate-science into their professional decisions.”

“What we are trying for is that planning piece,” Macaulay said. “Where we gather the science, take a look at it and say, ‘How does this affect forestry?’ and then communicate to our members some of the information about how to adapt.”

“�at’s where we’re at but its a big big project.”



Venture Kamloops outlines the role Kamloops plays in the forestry industry. Find out more at venturekamloops.com

British Columbia is the largest producer of forest products in Canada, with Kamloops contributing signi�cantly to production. As a provincially recognized forest centre, Kamloops and the Central Interior of B.C. account for the second highest concentration of value-added plants in the province.

�e number of value-added wood products manufactured in Kamloops continues to grow and ranges from plywood, veneer products and �nger jointed lamina to prefabricated housing units and custom kitchen cabinets. Many companies, agencies, and services related to the forest industry are headquartered in Kamloops including Domtar, Tolko Industries, FORREX and Compwood Products.

Competitive AdvantagesKamloops’ Location: One of Kamloops’ advantages is its geographic location in the province of British Columbia. As a transportation hub with trucking, rail and air cargo access, the ability to move products from Kamloops to other locations in a cost-efficient method is ideal.

SUPPORTING THE FORESTRY AND LOGGING INDUSTRY FOR 22 YEARS

The Association of BC Forest Professionals (ABCFP) and the Truck Loggers Association (TLA) are holding an art competition from Sept. 18 to Oct. 17, 2014 to celebrate National Forest Week. The art competition is open to kids aged 4 to 12 ─ parents can submit their own kids’ artwork or teachers can enter the work of the whole classroom.

Kids from across the province are invited to draw a picture of what the forests in their communities mean to them. There will be three winners ─ one from each age group. Winners will receive a $50 gift certificate to Chapters and will have their pictures published in the ABCFP and TLA magazines and posted on the websites of both organizations.

“ Asking children to draw pictures of the forest is always interesting,” says Dan Graham, RPF, LLB, president of the ABCFP. “Kids from different culture draw different animals and trees than what we’re used to seeing and sometimes the creatures are completely imaginary. I love seeing the pictures every year!”

“Forestry plays a significant role in the communities these kids live in,” said Don Banasky, TLA President. “It’s great to see what the kids draw each year—always lots of camping and animals. But I always love the ones that have a big machine in the picture!”

Pick up your pencil crayons and visit the ABCFP or the TLA websites to download the art competition entry form, www.abcfp.ca or www.tla.ca.

The Association of BC Forest Professionals, established in 1947, is the largest professional forestry association in Canada with more than 5,400 members. The association registers and regulates professional foresters and forest technologists under authority of the provincial Foresters Act.

The TLA (Truck Loggers Association) represents over 400 independent coastal forest contractors and their suppliers in British Columbia. The TLA promotes a thriving, sustainable forest industry in BC, and fosters communication and education within resource communities, urban centres and governments.

Canada stretches across five time zones and numerous climate regions.

The Arctic Circle is covered in permafrost, yet Point Pelee in southern Ontario is further south than northern California. The soil and water and conditions that sustain the nations forest, vary greatly across such geographic expanse.

As a result, Canada features 12 forest regions and sub-regions, each supporting characteristic tree species and forest types.

The largest forested area in Canada.

This region forms a continuous belt from Newfoundland and Labrador west to the Rocky Mountains and north to Alaska.

The boreal forest is mostly coniferous, but includes a mix of deciduous trees such as white birch and trembling aspen.

Boreal (forest and barren)

A sub-region north of the Boreal Forest Region.

A colder climate and shorter growing season

nurtures predominately spruce and larch (tamarack).

Along the northern edge the forest thins into open lichen-woodland and then treeless Tundra.

A sub-region south of the main Boreal Forest Region.

A warmer climate nurtures this deciduous forest where trembling aspen and willow flourish along the edge of the prairie.

A coniferous forest stretching from the mountainous uplands of Alberta, across the Rocky Mountain range, through the interior of British Columbia to the Pacific Coast.

The Sub-alpine and Boreal regions both features species such as black spruce, white spruce and trembling aspen.

Covers most of the interior uplands of British Columbia, part of the Kootenay Valley and a small area east of the Rocky Mountains.

It is a northern extension of the typical forest of much of the western mountain system of the United States.

Extensive prairie communities of bunch-grasses and herbs are found in many of the river valleys.

A unique area along the Pacific coast of British Columbia that is almost exclusively coniferous.

Encompasses a large part of the Kootnay Valley, the upper Thompson and Fraser river valleys and the Quesnel Lake area of British Columbia.

This coniferous region merges with Coast, Montane and Sub-alpine forest regions.

Widespread across the eastern United States and extending into southwestern Ontario between Lakes Huron, Erie and Ontario.

Some southern deciduous trees have their northern limits in this region: tulip tree, cucumber tree, pawpaw, red mulberry, Kentucky coffee tree, sassafras, black oak and pin oak.

Conifers are few but there is a scattered distribution of eastern white pine, Tamarack, eastern red cedar and eastern hemlock.

Extends inland from the Great Lakes and St, Lawrence River to southeastern Manitoba, but does not include the area north of Lake Superior.

This region is mixed coniferous-deciduous which in addition to the principal tree species includes wide ranges of eastern white cedar and largetooth aspen

Stretches across most of the Maritime provinces.

The region is closely related to the Great Lakes–St Lawrence Region and to some extent Boreal Region.

Though not a forest region, the prairies of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta support several species of trees in great numbers.

Trembling aspen forms groves or bluffs around wet depressions and continuous dense stands along the northern boundary.

A treeless area between the polar icecap and the treeline of the Arctic region.

Its permanently frozen sub-soil (permafrost) and a short growing season supports only small, hardy vegetation.

A world leader in chemical solutions for managing wild land, industrial and municipal �res since 1962.

OTTAWA — The Islamic extremist group that has occupied parts of Iraq and Syria has issued a new threat against Western coun-tries including Canada, the U.S. and Europe.

In an audio record-ing distributed on social media, Abu Muhammad Al-Adnani of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant urges supporters to kill Westerners from coun-tries who have joined efforts in northern Iraq,

whether military or civilian.

The Canadian gov-ernment has not said whether it views the recording as authentic, but France appears to be treating it as such, as is SITE, a Washington think-tank that analyz-es terrorist groups.

The group repre-sents a threat not just to the Middle East, but the world, said Jason MacDonald, a spokes-man for the Prime Minister’s Office.

“We will continue to work with allies to push back against this threat,’’ MacDonald said in an email.

“Like our allies, we will not be cowed by threats while innocent children, women, men and religious minorities live in fear of these ter-rorists.’’

The Harper govern-ment has taken a hard line on ISIL. Last week, Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird likened the fight against the al-Qai-da splinter group to the struggles against com-munism and fascism.

Canada is also send-ing 69 special forces personnel who will serve as advisers to Iraqi forces battling ISIL militants.

ly signed their bilateral free-trade agreement announced earlier this year, as well as a strategic partnership.

Harper repeatedly referred to Park’s state visit as “his-toric.’’

The Harper government has said the free-trade deal, finalized after a decade of on-again, off-again negotia-

tion, would increase Canadian exports to South Korea by 32 per cent and grow the econo-my by $1.7 billion.

As its first major trade deal in the Asia Pacific, it is also seen by many as a major step-ping stone for Canada’s trade ambitions in the region.

Harper made it clear he shared that view.

“For getting a foothold in terms of free trade in the Asia Pacific, there’s just no better and no more ideal partner the Republic of Korea,’’ he said.

In addition to the South Korean pact, Canada’s recent investment-protection agree-ment with China is also seen as an important step towards the government’s goal of boosting business ties with Asia to help grow the econo-my.

Lower interest rates needed:

Bank of CanadaTORONTO — Canada’s struggling economy still needs the extra boost of monetary stimulus to help keep the recovery on track — and it might take longer than expected to get there, Bank of Canada senior deputy governor Carolyn Wilkins said on Monday, Sept. 22.

She said “persistent headwinds’’ could mean “some degree of stimulus’’ will be needed to keep inflation on target, even after the economy returns to full capacity.

In her first speech as the senior deputy governor, Wilkins said the neutral interest rate — the level at which the economy can be sus-tained at full capacity with stable inflation — has dropped to a range of three to four per cent, about 1.5 percentage points lower than before the economic downturn.

The lower estimate for the neutral rate means interest rates could be lower than they have been in the past when the economy is running at full steam.

PROVINCIAL NEWS

SURREY — Police are crediting residents and businesses with providing information that led to the arrest of a man suspected of killing a 17-year-old girl in Surrey, B.C., though he has yet to be identified.

RCMP say the man has been charged with the second-degree murder of Serena Vermeersch as part of a random attack and was scheduled to appear in court yesterday (Sept. 22).

Staff Sgt. Jennifer Pound of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team said the name of the man arrested in Vancouver early Saturday will not be released because of a

publication ban sought by his defence lawyer.

She said a news conference Monday was delayed by an hour as police tried to get the ban lifted in the case that Chief Supt. Dan Malo called “a horrible crime of opportunity.’’

Pound said the tips were piv-otal as police worked around the clock to arrest a suspect.

“The community worked closely with us on this one,’’ she said, adding tips from the pub-lic and “extreme support’’ from businesses helped police appre-hend the man as fear spread among residents in the area.

Pound read a statement from Vermeersch’s family saying that while they are grateful for the

support they’ve received they wish to be left alone to grieve their loss.

Vermeersch was last seen walking along railroad tracks last Tuesday night, and when she didn’t come home by early Wednesday her mother phoned police.

Her body was found later Wednesday, prompting RCMP to issue a public plea for infor-mation about a man seen in a Dodge pickup truck near the tracks shortly before the grue-some discovery by a volunteer search and rescue team.

On Monday, Pound said police had not yet identified the driver but that police would like to speak with him.

Cops credit tips for arrest of Surrey murder suspect

VICTORIA — BC Ferries wants to convert its two largest vessels to dual-fuel capability, allowing the ships to operate on both diesel and liquefied natural gas to save millions of dollars a year.

The agency said it’s

also aiming to have the hulls of the Spirit of Vancouver Island and the Spirit of British Columbia modified and has filed an applica-tion with the BC Ferries commissioner.

BC Ferries said the modifications would

save about $9.2 million annually.

Ferries president Mike Corrigan said LNG is 50 per cent cheaper than marine diesel and the conver-sions, planned sepa-rately between 2016 and 2018, would also

bring environmental benefits.

The two ves-sels operate on the Tsawwassen-to-Swartz Bay route, which car-ried 28 per cent of total passengers in the fiscal 2014 year.

HOWARD HERBERT ALLAN WILHELMHoward passed away peacefully, with his family by his side, on Saturday, September 13, 2014. Howard was born in Sherkston, Ontario to Herbert and Marjorie Wilhelm on September 26, 1928. The Wilhelm family moved to Sudbury, Ontario in 1936 and then to Hamilton, Ontario in 1943 where he fi nished his schooling at Central Collegiate.

Howard entered the working world as a teller at the then Imperial Bank of Commerce in Hamilton. Having decided that banking was not for him, he changed course to the mining industry which took him to Yellowknife, Northwest Territories; Uranium City, Saskatchewan; and Elliott Lake, Ontario. In January, 1961, Howard’s travels lead him to Nicaragua where he met the love of his life, Edna. They married October 12, 1961, returned to Canada in 1962 and eventually moved to Ashcroft where their son Richard was born, followed by daughter Carol. Howard’s chosen career in the mining industry saw further moves to Tasu, BC; Kitsault, BC; Williams Lake, BC; and the Dominican Republic. The family fi nally settled in Kamloops in 1977. Howard retired from Afton Mine in 1992 and again in 1995.

The next chapter of Howard’s life, that of grandfather, began in May of 1994 as he welcomed beautiful granddaughter, Julie. Julie was followed by Madeline in 1996, Jack in 2000 and Jonathan in 2005. Those who knew Howard, quickly realized that this was his true calling. He loved his grandchildren with a passion, and spent his time driving them to piano, hockey, swimming, soccer and tennis lessons. When not in the company of a grandchild, he could be found in his well tended garden, or going for a walk, usually with son Richard.

Howard will be remembered most for his integrity, patience, subtle sense of humour, strength and wisdom, qualities he kept with him right up to his very last moments.

Howard is survived by his wife of 53 years, Edna; son Richard; daughter Carol (Scott); grandchildren Julie; Madeline; Jack; and Jonathan. Howard is also survived by sister June (Jack) of Bellavista, Arkansas; sister Patsy of Oakville, Ontario; and sister Carol (late Carl) of Hamilton, Ontario, as well as many nieces, nephews and cousins.

The family would like to thank Doctor Terry Simpson and Susan for over 30 years of exceptional care, Doctor Sean Gorman and Doctor Steve Rollheiser for their compassion and dedication, the wonderful Nursing Staff of 4 North for their support during his stay, Doctor Miranda DuPreez and Doctor Elizabeth Montgomery.

Cremation has taken place. Funeral to be held 11 a.m. Friday, September 26 at St. Paul’s Anglican Cathedral. In lieu of fl owers, the family requests that donations be made to RIH Foundation in Howard’s name.

JOYCE BOHAY February 5, 1950 – September 15, 2014

Joyce, or ‘Joycie’, as she was known to more than a few, packed a lot of living into 64 short years. Born in Saskatchewan to loving parents John and Tina Storzuk, Joyce grew up in Wynyard in a little blue house beside her childhood best friend, Kathy. She was the youngest of four and the only girl and John was fond of spoiling his daughter. She told tales of being the fi rst kid to get a bike with hand brakes which she showed off until she crashed on the only hill in town. In 1967, Joyce met Orest, the love of her life, and they married in July of 1969 and moved to Kitimat like her three brothers before, Ray, Merv and Bernie, (the boys). A son, Trevor, was born out west while Tracy was born in Regina. The small family moved back to Wynyard in 1974, and when the kids were old enough, Joyce worked at the Wynyard Bakery (moonlighting as a cake-

decorator), and then at Stedman’s, followed by a stint at the Co-Op as the ‘produce lady’. Many great times were had with the Fichtner’s and other friends, and Fishing Lake was a favourite spot.

Eventually all things must change. As great as Wynyard had been to the Bohay family, Joyce and Orest decided to move to Victoria, and then in 1994, the Bohays moved one last time, to Kamloops, where they would be near family once again. Family was important to Joyce and it was inconceivable to be far from them. Joyce and Orest continued to work hard, supporting their kids when needed and taking pride in the accomplishments of their children. Joyce reveled in being a grandmother and spoiled her grandsons, Zack and Aidan, relentlessly. She also enjoyed spending time with her daughter-in-law Heather. Ten years ago, Joyce battled cancer for the fi rst time. She made a recovery, continuing to work in the offi ce at Wal-Mart and being a fantastic grandmother. Joyce was renowned for being good at three-spot and loved fi shing. She prepared a great traditional Ukrainian Christmas Eve dinner that even the fussiest of eaters came to look forward to, and there was always room at her table. She was well-loved and fun to be around. She had a loud, infectious laugh and enjoyed the ribbing bestowed upon her by her kids and her cherished brothers and in-laws; although if you took it too far, you’d hear your name through those clenched teeth as a warning to wrap it up. Tracy’s friends called her ‘mom’, and Tracy’s partner; Will and his daughter, Brittany, enjoyed her friendship.

Joyce passed too soon, as did two of her brothers before her. She didn’t get to enjoy retirement, and didn’t travel enough. Still, she didn’t complain. She made the best of every day she had.

The thing she loved the most was spending time with her loving husband, Orest, who she remained in love with until the day he kissed her goodbye that last morning. She leaves behind a loving family and a lot of friends.

Funeral services will be held at the Kamloops Funeral Home, Saturday, 4 October. In lieu of fl owers, donations can be made to the Kamloops Hospice Society, where compassionate staff made her last days comfortable and dignifi ed.

Condolences may be expressed to the family from www.kamloopsfuneralhome.com

The ShipI am standing upon the seashore. A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean. She is on object of beauty & strength & I stand & watch her, until at length, she is only a speck of white cloud just wheret he seas & sky meet and mingle with each other. Then someone at my side exclaims, “There, she’s gone!”

Gone where? Gone from my sight, that is all. She is just as large as she was when she left my side & just as able to bear her load of living freight to the place of her destination. Her diminished size is in me, not her.

And just at the moment when someone at my side says she is gone, there are other eyes watching for her coming and other voices ready to take up the glad shout “There she comes!”.

When defensive line-man Kyle Crall forced a Valley Huskers fumble with 1:36 left to play in the fourth quarter, the Kamloops Broncos recovered and their fans could finally be assured of victory.

Kamloops let Valley hang around but, in the end, moved to 6-2 with a 23-14 triumph over the visitors from Chilliwack on Saturday, Sept. 20, at Hillside Stadium in front of 651 fans.

“The effort was there, but we came out extremely flat at the beginning of the game,” said Broncos’ head coach Duncan Olthuis, who credited Valley for its spirited effort.

“It’s always tough with the third matchup with these teams. It’s tough to get the guys up. We didn’t come out prepared.”

Kamloops had already twice beaten Valley, which was winless at 0-7 heading into the game, and it seemed the home team’s guard was down in the first quarter.

Valley running back Benedict Muhima was dominant before leaving the game with an injury.

He rushed for 75 yards and a touchdown and Valley held a 12-4 lead before Kamloops quarterback Stephen Schuweiler connected with receiver Devin Csincsa on a touchdown pass with time winding down in the first quarter.

“On defence, the start was ugly,” Olthuis said. “I didn’t like how Valley marched the ball on us, but the guys tightened stuff up.”

Too many Broncos’ drives stalled deep in Huskers’ terri-tory on Saturday night and, if it weren’t for several defensive stands by a Kamloops unit that

congealed in the second half, including one on the goal line late in the third quarter, Valley might have went home victori-ous.

“We cannot be kicking field goals, especially against Okanagan and Vancouver Island, if we expect to win,” Schuweiler said.

The Broncos’ pivot, who will likely have the reins the rest of the way, had an up-and-down game.

He completed 21 of 34 passes for 260 yards, throwing two touchdowns and one intercep-tion, the pick leading to a Valley score on the very next play.

Schuweiler also fumbled in the Huskers’ red zone early in the second quarter and Valley recovered.

On defence, Kyle Richardson had a team-high six tackles for the Broncos and Chris Rosa had an interception.

Colin Mather came up with a big play on special teams, intercepting a pass when the Huskers faked a punt in the third quarter.

Valley receiver Tyron Ledingham gave the Broncos’ secondary fits, the 6-foot-5, 230-pound wideout finishing with 112 yards on seven catches.

Jacob Palmarin led the Kamloops rushing attack with 67 yards on 11 carries and Csincsa was the Broncos’ top receiver, catching three passes for 74 yards and one major.

Derek Yachison racked up 66 yards receiving on six catches, including one of the highlight-reel variety in the fourth quarter.

In the second quarter, Jesse Neufeld caught Schuweiler’s second TD pass.

Broncos’ kicker Aaron Smit was good on three of four field-goal attempts and tacked on a rouge.

Kamloops can place no lower than third in the BCFC and will finish with a winning record for the first time in franchise his-tory.

The Okanagan Sun of Kelowna are atop league stand-ings at 7-1 and the Broncos and Langley Rams are tied for sec-ond at 6-2.

With the top two teams set to host playoff games, a first-ever post-season matchup at Hillside is not out of the question, although it is a long shot.

Should the Rams and Broncos finish with match-ing records, Langley holds the tiebreaker, having walloped Kamloops 70-24 on Aug. 31.

Langley ends the cam-paign with games against the Sun in Kelowna and Valley in Chilliwack.

The Broncos are hosting the Vancouver Island Raiders (3-5) of Nanaimo at Hillside on Saturday, Sept. 27, before wrap-ping the regular season against hometown Okanagan on Oct. 5.

Game time on Saturday is 7 p.m.

Kamloops’ detractors will say the team’s record is inflated by victories, all six of them, over the league’s weaker teams, in Valley and Westshore of Langford.

Bronco backers will argue the wins have mostly been of the convincing variety and it’s clear the squad has taken a step forward in 2014, separating itself from the Rebels and Huskers.

Beating Vancouver Island on Saturday would go a long way in legitimizing the Tournament Capital’s BCFC squad and it would keep afloat its hopes of hosting a home playoff game.

“When game day comes around, we’ve got to make sure we put it all together,” Crall said.

Mark Ferner is the head coach and general manager of the Vernon Vipers, having opted to leave his position as associate coach of the Kamloops Blazers.

Speculation of a second stint in Vernon — where Ferner led the Vipers to three consecutive B.C. Hockey League championships and two consecutive national junior A championships between 2007 and 2011 — began on Sept. 8 when Jason Williamson vacated his post as bench boss and GM of the Snakes, citing personal rea-sons.

“Their [the Vipers] owner [Duncan Wray] called me and asked permission to talk to Mark about 10 days ago,” Blazers’ GM Craig Bonner told KTW.

“I never really heard anything about it until yesterday. They offered the job and he was inter-ested. His house and family are in Vernon.”

Ferner, hired as head coach of the Everett Silvertips in July of 2011 and fired in January of 2013, joined the Blazers as an associate coach in August 2013.

If he did have aspirations to take over behind the bench in Kamloops, those were curbed when Don Hay was named the Blue and Orange’s head coach in May.

Bonner said the search for Ferner’s replacement is underway.

“Me and Hayzer will sit down and talk about it. It’s fairly new to us,” Bonner said.

“Obviously, it’s not the best time of year, but there are a lot of coaches who should like the opportunity to work with Hayzer.

“Don will have a lot of influ-ence on the decision. He has to work with him and travel with him. We’ll have some interest-ing names come up now that the news is out.”

Bonner said there was no rift between Hay and Ferner, noting their relationship was “fine.”

Ferner’s coaching career start-ed with the Vancouver Giants fol-lowing his retirement from profes-sional hockey in 2001. He played in North America and Europe for 16 seasons and suited up in 91 NHL games.

It takes a village to raise a child.

For Kelly Olynyk, that village was Kamloops.

Olynyk, son of Thompson Rivers University athletics director Ken Olynyk and a centre with the NBA’s Boston Celtics, will deliver a keynote address at the TRU

WolfPack’s athletic scholarship breakfast on Thursday, Sept. 25.

The talk will be based on the idea that it takes a village to raise a child, or, in Olynyk’s case, an athlete.

“I’m just try-ing to come back to Thompson Rivers University and give back to them,” Olynyk told KTW last week in a call from Boston, where he was training for Celtics camp, which

opens on Monday, Sept. 29.

“In my lifetime, being out there as a young student, a young player, they’ve done so much for me in helping me get to where I am and giving me oppor-tunities to play and get better.”

Olynyk said the keynote will be based on his personal expe-riences. He will talk about the things that have helped him in his

life both on and off the court.

He hopes to be able to draw attention to the little things people do for a community and its athletes — those which don’t often stand out or make the head-lines.

Olynyk said he will also talk about the importance of living in the present and enjoy-ing life in the moment.

BLAZERS OUT OF THE GATESForward Jake Kryski, 16, and the Kamloops Blazers opened the WHL regular sea-son with a win and a loss on the weekend.

Prior to his time with Boston, Olynyk was on a full-ride scholar-ship, playing for the NCAA Division 1 Gonzaga Bulldogs.

The 23-year-old said he was blessed to have his costs covered when he was with Gonzaga and acknowledged that isn’t the case for the vast majority of athletes playing in Canada.

It’s a reality he said makes the experience of returning home to Kamloops and lending his name to the WolfPack’s scholarship breakfast all the more special.

“It [Kamloops] has been such a vital part to my life,” Olynyk said.

“Like the talk says, you need a village to raise a child and they defi-nitely have been a major contribu-tor to my success and getting me to where I am today.

“I know how important scholar-ships are,” Olynyk continued, “giving that opportunity to kids who maybe wouldn’t have that opportunity if

those things weren’t there.”As a student-athlete who had his

ups and downs with Gonzaga — he was mostly a bench player in his freshmen and sophomore years, before red-shirting as a junior to improve his game and get stronger — Olynyk said he hopes to impart the importance of working hard and persevering to any WolfPack athletes who might be in attendance.

“Life’s not going to be easy,” he said. “It’s the hard things that are the most worthy and the most satisfying at the end.

“Everyone is going to hit adversity, whether it’s one shape, one form, or another. It’s the people who bounce back and get up after they’ve been knocked down, those are the tough-est people to play against or the toughest people in the world or the most successful people in the world.”

Tickets are still available for the athletic scholarship breakfast. For more information, call 250-828-5264 or email [email protected].

NATIONAL SPORTS

Tony Romo and the Dallas Cowboys were big-time come-back kids in Week 3 of the NFL season.

So were Nick Foles and the Philadelphia Eagles. The Baltimore Ravens, too.

Peyton Manning rallied the Denver Broncos back in a Super Bowl rematch, but Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks came up with the victory — as they did seven months ago on football’s big-gest stage.

“I can’t wait for those moments, those big-time moments and have guys to continue to believe in what we do,’’ Wilson said after the Seahawks’ 26-20 victory Sunday. “That was a great experience tonight.’’

The Cowboys had the big-gest comeback of all.

Terrance Williams scored the go-ahead touchdown late in the fourth quarter, Bruce Carter returned an intercep-tion 25 yards for a TD on the next snap and the Cowboys matched the largest comeback in team history to stun the St.

Louis Rams 34-31.“We never blinked. I can

honestly say that,’’ Bryant said.

This marked the fourth time this season a team has overcome a deficit of at least 17 points to win, tied for the most through the first three weeks of a season since the 1970 merger (2011).

Romo has 21 comeback victories in the fourth quarter or overtime, a franchise best.

“Tony went out there and did what Tony do,’’ Bryant said.

Janoris Jenkins’ 25-yard interception return, the fifth defensive touchdown in his three seasons, put the Rams (1-2) up 21-0 with 6:06 to go in the first half.

At Philadelphia, Jordan Matthews, the draft pick who replaced DeSean Jackson, and veteran Jeremy Maclin lifted the Eagles past the star receiv-er’s new team.

Philadelphia again stormed from behind to win, beat-ing the Washington Redskins 37-34 as Matthews caught two touchdown passes and Maclin had one.

The Eagles are the first NFL team to start a season 3-0 after trailing by 10-plus points in each game.

“Man, that was an emo-tional one,’’ said Matthews, who scored his first NFL touchdowns. “They are close [games], so I know that coach [Chip] Kelly is losing some hair.’’

The nasty game was marred by a fourth-quarter brawl near the Washington sideline after Eagles quarter-back Nick Foles was blindsid-ed by defensive lineman Chris Baker during an apparent interception return. Baker and Eagles left tackle Jason Peters were ejected — and then the INT was overturned by video replay.

That led to Maclin’s 27-yard touchdown to break a 27-27 tie.

At Cleveland, the Ravens pulled off a victory as Justin Tucker kicked a 32-yard field goal as time expired to give Baltimore a 23-21 win over the Cleveland Browns.

At Seattle, Wilson kept Manning and the Broncos from seeing the ball in over-

time. He led Seattle on an 80-yard drive on the first pos-session of the extra session, capped by Marshawn Lynch’s six-yard touchdown run for the victory.

“We almost overcame them,’’ Manning said, “but didn’t quite do it today.’’

The Super Bowl rematch lived up to the billing of what everyone expected in February and never trans-pired.

The 43-8 blowout by Seattle (2-1) was replaced this time by Denver (2-1) rallying from a 17-3 fourth-quarter deficit to force overtime by going 80 yards against the best defence in the NFL in the final minute of regulation.

And then Wilson upstaged Manning. After nearly get-ting sacked for a safety and throwing an interception in the fourth quarter, Wilson was brilliant in overtime, rushing for 21 yards and completing four of six passes. Lynch went the final six yards for the win.

“I don’t think anyone ever doubts Russell,’’ Seattle tight end Zach Miller said. “He’s just too good.’’

European Ryder Cup partnership drawing attention

GLENEAGLES, Scotland — European captain Paul McGinley is having second thoughts about a Rory McIlroy-Graeme McDowell partnership in the Ryder Cup.

Attribute that to an ordinary record, not an acrimonious lawsuit.

The Northern Irish duo has made it clear in recent weeks McIlroy’s lawsuit against Dublin-based Horizon Sports Management — which involves allegations against McDowell — has not affected their friendship and would not be a problem.

“Both of them have assured me all along that there’s no issue and that’s the way I’ve always seen it,’’ McGinley said on

Monday, Sept. 22.McDowell and

McIlroy are longtime friends and major champions.

They have been Ryder Cup partners for all but one session dat-ing to 2010 at Wales, though their record is hardly impressive. They have won only two of those matches and halved another.

Both teams arrived at Gleneagles on a rela-tively quiet day in which a haircut attracted most of the attention.

Rickie Fowler stepped off the U.S. charter in Edinburgh with “USA’’ cut into the side of his hair.

“I thought it was terrific,’’ said Tom Watson, the 65-year-old American captain. “It brings a light spirit to the team.’’

Europe is considered a favourite.

OLAF BRADLY JENSENBorn in Wadena, Saskatchewan on February 19, 1952

A heart of gold stopped beating August 31st, 2014, as our beloved Bradly passed away at the age of 62, after his courageous battle with cancer. Left to carry on his legacy is the love of his life and wife of 37 years, Linda; the light of his life and 25 year old daughter, Kirsten; his mother, Maxine; his two brothers, Terry and Les; his four sisters, Adriann, Brenda, JoAnn and Barbie; his best friends, Glen and Brian; his “second daughter”, Aubrey; as well as

the many other relatives, in-laws, friends and loved ones too numerous to mention.

Brad was a well respected welder and mentor at Highland Valley Copper Mine, putting in over 30 years with his TECK family. His words of wisdom, unconditional love and thoughtful teachings will continue to live on despite his absence, for they will be carried in the hearts of many and shared for generations to come.

The family wishes to extend their thanks to Dr. Bushra, Dr. Jones and the many staff at R.I.H., as well as their heartfelt gratitude to the dedicated and caring staff at Kamloops Hospice for all that you did to bring peace and comfort to Bradly during his last days.

His spirit lives on as he now watches over us in the heavens with his father, Olaf, and son, Lewis, along with his many other loved ones who have left us here on earth.

A celebration of life for Brad’s friends and family will be held at the Calvary Community Church on Thursday, September 25 at 2pm. We ask that everyone who will be attending please dress in an attire that’s bright and cheery to represent the joyous demeanor of our cherished loved one.

In lieu of fl owers, donations may be made to the Kamloops Hospice Association.

Gone yet not forgotten, Although we apart,

Your spirit lives within us, Forever in our hearts.

Thank-you for a life time of love. Bye-bye for now.

Marian Truscott is going through a lot of memo-

ries these days — racks and racks of them.

The woman behind Pandora’s Costume Box will be shutting the doors for good at the end of the year.

She said it’s a retire-ment from retail sales, not from designing and creating costumes and working with the region’s many theatre companies.

In fact, Truscott said, the move, while difficult, will give her more time to go back to where it all began and work with set designers, directors, actors, the costume department — all those various skills that come together to create magic on a stage.

And it will mean a studio in her basement at home, another mem-ory of how the Pandora story began.

Perhaps it’s ironic she almost failed her home-economics class in school — in particu-lar because, when told to hand-baste an item and having been taught to sew at the age of five by her grandmother, she decided “that’s just nonsense and I went home and sewed it.

“I went to school and the teacher made me pick out all that stitch-ing and do it by hand.”

Community theatre in Fort St. John eventual-ly beckoned her and, in 1982, saw Truscott start what would become her designing career.

The theatre troupe there would head out to festivals, other acting

companies would see her work and her busi-ness started to grow.

It was a chance encounter with David Ross at one of those theatrical festivals that saw Truscott and hus-band Kevin move to Kamloops 16 years ago.

Ross, then the man behind the Western Canada Theatre, learned of her abili-ties and asked her to do costume design for one of the company’s upcoming plays.

Shortly after, Ross called and asked her to fill the vacant head-costumer position.

The Truscotts, with the help of family and friends and a veritable convoy of vans and trucks and cars, moved what was in essence a complete store of cos-tumes and accessories in their basement to a new home in Kamloops — then made the trip one more time to move the actual family items.

The store was again set up in their house at the far north end of Westsyde and was moved into town for about six weeks every year — right before Halloween.

Eventually, they decided a separate retail outlet was needed and Pandora’s was opened eight years ago at the east end of Victoria Street.

Halloween remained the best time for sales, Truscott said, and that busy time provided the revenue to help keep the store afloat the rest of the year.

With the increase in seasonal pop-up stores at this time of the year, temporary retail outlets

selling pre-packaged costumes, her business has started to feel that pinch, Truscott said, so the hard decision was eventually made.

It’s hard to com-pete with them, given their inventory can be returned to the manu-facturer if not sold.

The clothing on hangers in her store are, for the most part, one-of-a-kinds, at least half of which she has created.

There are some repeats — poodle skirts, for example — but the rest all have some-thing that makes them unique.

One of the qualities they have is longevity because they’re made to a professional stan-dard with quality mate-rials. In fact, Truscott said, she has some costumes in her stock that are more than 25 years old.

They may have been altered through the years, had different

accents applied, but they’ve stood that test of time — and multiple wearings.

Closing the store doesn’t mean the end, though. Truscott said she’ll still work with large groups needing costume rentals, but it will also give her more time to work with WCT, BC Living Arts, Stage One, Project X and many others.

She’ll be able to take on more out-of-town jobs as well.

Truscott has started selling off inventory — hence the memories as she, Kevin and WCT’s Melissa Thomas have been pricing things to move out — but won’t be letting the Santa suits go yet.

They’re pretty much all spoken for by local elves who will need them in December.

“It’s kind of sad,” Truscott said.

“But, I’ve been tell-ing people I’ve ripped the Band-Aid off now.”

speakingRED WINE PARADOX!

The red wine paradox was �rst published in 1991 by

Serge Renaud reporting that despite having a high fat diet, the moderate daily consumption of red wine led to lowered rates of heart disease amongst the

French versus North American population. This theory has since been debunked in many studies. So although we might emotionally want to drink to our health... red wine is unequivocally proven to be detrimental to your oral health.

Red wine has an acidic pH and over time stains teeth. We can all bear witness to this when you attend a dinner party and are speaking with someone drinking red wine! In addition, coolers and spritzers with extremely high sugar levels are a double whammy, as alcohol & sugar act synergistically together to break down tooth enamel even faster.

Why is this bad for teeth? Acidic drinks demineralize and create micro-porosities in the enamel coating of our teeth (the outer translucent white layer), making our teeth sensitive to a bacterial attack from over 900 bacterial species in the mouth. Champagne or Prosecco are even worse as they are carbonated indulgences and attack teeth as a third whammy; which is why it’s better to drink a �at drink than a �zzy drink.

Fruit juices, smoothies, soda pop are all �lled with sugars & acids and summertime is the most common time to drink these beverages during a social hour or sparkling wines during wedding celebrations. To offset the acidic pH in the mouth, drinking water between drinks will help lessen the threats of demineralization.

Coffee based cocktails like Irish coffee or martini’s mixed with dark fruit juices (i.e. cranberry cocktail) also have similar negative impacts. So if you want to indulge in these summer cocktails, do yourself a favour and brush with non abrasive toothpaste or no toothpaste afterwards - preventing stain is easier than treating stain.

Treatment of the problem can vary in extent depending on the causes & depth of staining. The most predictable treatment is the customized systems using infrared light from the dental of�ce. These work by having custom �tted trays to contain and protect the percolating carbamide peroxide gel from the soft tissue. Speci�c laser light wavelengths are then applied to activate particles in the gel to start the bleaching process. The protocol is to apply the gel three times to access the deeper layers of staining, which have accumulated over the years, but often twice is enough. The difference between off the shelf whitening products vs. dental of�ce products is that the depth of penetration that determines how “white” your teeth will become and how quickly they will restain. There is also a maintenance program for any of these products.

In essence, “Prevention rather than treatment” is the same metaphor used in all of dentistry. Cheers!

Reverend Carolyn Ronald has gone fishin’ — and the minister of the Kamloops Plura Hills United Church is hoping the rest of the city’s faith-based com-munity joins her.

“Plura Hills United Church is issuing a challenge to other churches in the com-munity, and other faith communities, to do a campaign through the fall while the salmon run is on, on the Adams River,” Ronald said as she stood along the shore of the South Thompson River.

The challenge will

run until the end of October.

“We’re going to do a salmon run in Kamloops where all the faith communities collect tinned fish of various kinds.”

Ronald said the salmon run is an annual event for the United Church and is aimed at stockpiling a good source of protein to be utilized by peo-ple in need throughout the winter.

Fish is also a sym-bol of Christianity and considered a “brain food.”

Though it has been dubbed the salmon run, the challenge isn’t

limited to salmon — tuna and sardines will also be accepted.

The United Church is hoping its challenge will also get the rest of the city’s churches involved.

It certainly seems to have worked for Barry Baskin and St. Paul’s Anglican Church.

Baskin stood riv-erside with Ronald — wearing a fish head.

“The Anglican Church is definitely going to win,” he said.

The fish head was Baskin’s way of inspir-ing his congregation during last year’s chal-lenge.

“I believe, if my

memory serves me correctly, we did win last year.”

Though the mood was light along the river, Ronald said the impetus behind the challenge is no laugh-ing matter.

“The problem we find when we’ve related to people at [New Life] Mission or Weiser House or the food bank, is that one of the hardest things for people in poverty to get is a high-quality protein,” she said.

AUTO MARKETKAMLOOPS’ NO. 1 AUTOBUYERS’ GUIDE

A sexy Civic?

Yeah, it sounds like an oxymoron, a contradiction of the popular but eminent-ly practical image of

Canada’s perennial top-selling, Mom & Pop family car.

But we’re talking about the two-door coupe here, built on the same bones as the four-door sedan, but with a little more emphasis on form instead of just function, a fast-backed, aggres-sively styled and sleeker sibling of the more mundane Honda Civic sedan.

Honda Civics have undergone a fast and forced makeover over the past two years. Honda has been back pedalling since critical grum-bles about the dumbed-down 2012 Civic lineup, scrambling to make a quick fix of the sedan for 2013 and, more recently, turning their attention to the coupe for the 2014 model year.

The new and rejuvenated 2014 Civic Coupe comes in four trim level choices: LX ($18,840), EX ($20,995), EX-L Navi ($25,600) and Si ($26,710).

Changes across the board include sportier styling cues, inte-rior design upgrades with new available technologies, suspension adjustments and improved engine performance bolstered by the availability of a new optional, fuel-efficient CVT transmission.

Let’s look at our tester as an example, a mid-range EX model, and a typical example of Canadian compromise that adds just enough extras without blowing the family budget.

Exterior design changes include a more aggressive style to the grille and air intakes, a sportier front bumper, new fender designs, a new hood and sleek new head-lights.

The wedge-like profile has been accentuated by new side mirrors and new wheel styling, the tapered design tailing back to a new rear bumper with a sporty rear diffuser and new taillights.

And all of this has been wrapped, as tested here, in a new shade of Modern Steel Metallic for 2014.

Under the skin of this Civic Coupe EX, the 1.8-litre 16-valve, SOHC, i-VTEC four-cylinder engine carries over with a minor tweak to the exhaust system, freeing up the power output to a slightly higher rating of 143 hp (up 3 hp) and 129 lb/ft of torque (up 1 lb/ft). Not a lot more, but every

little bit helps.The coupe comes stan-

dard with a five-speed manual transmission but our tester had been optioned with the new Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) automatic transmission, replacing the previ-ous optional five-speed automatic.

The CVT allows for normal hands-off automatic function or for manual shifting through seven pre-programmed shift points, selected via steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters.

And, with a 22 per cent wider ratio range and reduced internal friction, the CVT was designed to compliment the fuel-efficient four-banger to an improvement of 0.4L/100km (city) and 0.2L/100km (combined).

The official fuel economy rat-ing for 2014 is 6.7/5.0/6.0L/100km (city/hwy/comb).

In real world terms, I took the Civic Coupe on a long highway trek at normal 100-120 km/h speeds and earned a 5.9L/100km average after a 300 km highway

trek. Our combined averages with more city driving were closer to 7.0L/100km.

Additional performance enhancements for 2014 include revised suspension tuning with higher spring rates and a stiffer rear stabilizer bar.

There’s little to complain about in ride and handling.

The coupe handles long dis-tance highway hauling, urban chores and even country road corner carving with good manners and sure-footed aplomb.

Inside, the cabin has a driver-oriented ambiance with controls, readouts and instruments all angled towards the left seat. It offers comfortable confines for two but forget about the back seat.

As with most coupes, because of the sloping roofline and limited legroom, the second row is suit-able only as a receptacle for tossed bags, umbrellas and the other peripherals of life.

New seat fabrics, new textures, and new door panel trim pieces are part of the premium interior

refinements enhanced by the addition of new available driver technologies.

Our EX tester comes standard with most of them, including the seven-inch capacitive touch-screen Display Audio system with HondaLink, an app-based platform that allows smartphone integration, online access and automatic emergency response.

New body-coloured heated side mirrors include an Expanded View Driver’s Mirror on the left and, on the passenger side, a built-in camera that has been added below the mirror. It turns on during lane changes, with the LaneWatch blind spot display popping up on the Display Audio Screen. Curiously, the image looks flipped around the wrong way, but it somehow works.

Honda also dropped the previ-ous remote key entry system and now uses a new proximity-based Smart Entry with Push Button start.

And the MP3/Aux input jack has been deleted in favour of two

USB slots and an HDMI socket.You know, the last time I

counted, Civic Coupes made up less than 15 percent of over-all Civic sales in Canada. So we could argue about the impact of a refreshed and refined coupe that occupies only a small niche of the broader segment.

And, no doubt, many of the improvements made to the 2014 Civic models were done just to keep pace with other viable contenders in the compact class — Hyundai Elantra, Mazda3 and Toyota Corolla, to name just a few.

But there are plenty of rea-sons why the Honda Civic has remained the best-selling passen-ger car in Canada for 16 consecu-tive years.

And a new and refreshed Coupe, may be a minor player but it is still the halo car of the Civic lineup.

It can only help benefit the benchmark qualities and reli-able reputation of the top selling, made-in-Canada, Civic compact lineup.

ROB BEINTEMA METROLAND MEDIA

This Civic is sexy

After an early refresh, this latest coupe offers new exterior styling, interior design upgrades, new available technologies, suspension adjustments and tweaked engine performance bolstered by the availability of a new optional, fuel-efficient CVT transmission.

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20Aries, your thoughts are spinning and it’s pretty difficult for you to get a hold of any one thing. Take a step back and try to clear your head before proceeding.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Libra, staying the course may be a challenge this week. You have too many things pulling you in different directions. But you’ll be successful if you can get a foothold in one thing.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, you have plenty of motivation to get a project started. All you need is some help to get things off the ground. Others will be inspired by your enthusiasm.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21Use your charm to win someone over, Sagittarius. This is an influential person who will be good to have in your corner. You never know when you might need a good ally.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Leo, you may be anxious to try a new hobby this week, but just don’t know which direction to go. Get some recommendations from friends about what keeps them busy.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, the coming weeks may be ideal for some rest and relaxation. Plan for some downtime and make the most of this chance to recharge your batteries.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Taurus, don’t let your nerves get the better of you this week. Find someone who can calm your nerves and help you realize you have nothing to be nervous about.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Work associates may not be holding up their end of the deal, Scorpio. You’re content to help out once in a while but not take on the work of everyone else.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Cancer, others seem to spend time in the spotlight, but you’re more comfortable spending time in the shadows. Make the most of this time for quiet reflection.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Capricorn, if certain ideas didn’t work in the past, give them another try. All of the components may fall into place this time around, and you’ll like the results.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22Sometimes it is difficult for you to talk about your feelings, Virgo. You want to present a brave front, but you’re only human and should let others in this week.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20Pisces, expect things to flow much more smoothly this week than they have in recent weeks. You may find you have more free time.
