Students at McKim School are taking part in the Roots of Empathy program. Here’s what Mr. Sutherland’s Grade 4 class has to say about the program: Roots of Empathy is a great program to learn. It teaches you to care for one another. Roots is a program to teach children what to do and not to do with babies. It helps us to be kind and respectful. Roots helps us to understand feel-ings and sharing. Every visit the baby comes with something new to show us. Sometimes we measure and weigh him. We watch him grow and develop. We get to see the baby reach new milestones like crawling, eating, jumping and more. Schools should continue with Roots of Empathy because it is absolutely a great source of knowledge for everyone. We are lucky to have Roots at McKim. Thank you Brenda Kraushaar, baby William, Anali and Mr. Sutherland. Written by Mr. Sutherland’s grade 4 class

All invited to Rails 2

Trails AGM Tuesday, May

12, Heritage Inn Cranbrook

C AROLYN GR ANTBulletin Editor

The Rails 2 Trails is an asset that the com-munities of Kimberley and Cranbrook, and surrounding Regional District area, are justi-fiably proud of.

The Rails 2 Trails Society is responsible for stewardship of the trail, and makes all the decisions about proj-ects and maintenance. Members also do a lot of hands on volunteer work.

If you’d like to have a say in the Trail’s fu-ture, attend the up-coming Annual Gen-eral Meeting on Tues-day, May 12 at 7 p.m. at the Cranbrook Heri-tage Inn.

Society President Rob McIntyre says one and all are invited to the AGM, which alter-nates location yearly between Kimberley and Cranbrook.

“As an all volunteer society, we need your help,” he said. “Thanks to seasonal workers and volunteers the trail is looking great. It’s heavily used by both locals and visi-tors.”

That help can come in the form of dona-tions, volunteering or becoming a new mem-ber of the Society.

In the past year the Society has taken on a

number of projects, including the pur-chase and use of a trail truck and equipment, vegetation manage-ment (noxious weed control), new benches and a kiosk have been purchased, trail maps and brochures have been printed, guide-lines posted, trail guides and security measures implement-ed, a new website has been developed, and financial statements and budgets clarified.

“We appreciate our ongoing funding sup-port from the Colum-bia Basin Trust, the cities of Cranbrook and Kimberley, and now the RDEK,” McIn-tyre said.

“We thank every-one for being a friend to the trail and we hope to see you at the AGM.”

Ski racing generates $400,000 this past season

FOR THE BULLETIN

KIMBERLEY, BC – April 22, 2015 . The ski season this year was notable for all the wrong reasons. Unseasonably warm in February, unseasonable cold in April.

But Dreadnaught Ski Racing persisted and is helping to grow the ski tourism market, with an estimated economic im-pact of over $400,000 this season in Kim-berley.

The Dreadnaught Ski Race Series, which ran 33 days of racing between Jan-

uary and March, is a cooperative effort between the Kimberley Alpine Racing Club, the Kimberley Alpine Resort, and the Kimberley Disabled Skier Associa-tion.

The resurgence in ski racing this year saw 3,160 competitor days between Keurig, NorAm IPC, Masters, and Zone races. Dreadnaught Ski Racing was aided this year by $15,000 in funding to pur-chase racing infrastructure including tim-ing clocks, netting, and a power cord that extended snowmaking to the far reaches of the Dreadnaught race course.

Funding was provided by the City of Kimberley as part of the BC Resort Mu-nicipality Initiative (RMI). Kimberley is

one of 14 BC communities eligible to par-ticipate in the RMI, a provincial program that provides small, tourism-based mu-nicipalities with funding to invest in tour-ism related infrastructure and amenities in order to grow their visitor economies.

According to volunteer organizer Donna Briggs, “This race season would not have been possible without the fund-ing for race infrastructure and the god-like grooming provided by the Kimberley Alpine Resort. Both enabled us to pro-duce an environment and conditions that could endure one of the most difficult seasons in years.”

Trevor CrawleyAnyone wandering

the local highways over the last few days be-tween Creston, Cran-brook and Fernie may notice a lone figure walking along the side of the road.

Accompanied by an Australian Shepherd and pushing a cart with a few belongings for the road, Robin Edgar-Ha-worth is walking across the country as he heads to Ottawa. On foot.

Edgar-Haworth, an

aboriginal artist living in Penticton, began his trek earlier in the month and arrived in Cranbrook on Friday, April 24th.

While Edgar-Ha-worth has dedicated his walk to the issue of miss-ing and murdered ab-original women, he is also mounting a cam-paign he’s christened ‘Right the Wrong’, which highlights a number of environmental, social and economic issues that are important to him.

His cart, a three-wheeled buggy, is stocked with food for the road, a sleeping bag and two personally signifi-cant items, he said.

“It’s for the women and it’s for all Canadi-ans,” said Edgar-Ha-worth. “I’m carrying a sacred Eagle feather I’m carrying for all Native people and I’m also car-rying a Canadian flag.”

Earlier in January, after fasting for a few days, Edgar-Haworth was moved by what he called ‘injustice’ wrought by political de-cisions in all areas of government, decided to undertake his trek with the goal of reaching Ot-tawa by the next federal election.

He’s averaging 20 ki-lometres a day, pushing and pulling his 150-pound cart up and down the hills, but when he hits the flatlands, he’s able to make much bet-ter time.

“The walk’s fine, my dog’s fine, we’re in good spirits. We’re picking up a lot of support along the way,” Edgar-Haworth said.

For more informa-tion about his Right the Wrong campaign, visit his website at www.pat-re o n . c o m / r ig ht t h e -wrong.

Grade 7, 8, and 9 Band students from Laurie Middle School took part in their second garbathon of the year on April 11. Students and volunteer parents spent the morning collecting garbage in order to raise money for trips to Penticton and Edmonton.

The memorial reads “This area overlooking the Sullivan Mine’s reclaimed No. 1 shaft waste rock dump and with a view of the beautiful Rocky Mountains has been chosen as a memorial site for all employees, contrac-tors and emergency responders who lost their lives while assisting or work-ing at Kimberley Operations. Kimberley Operations consisted of many work areas. The ore from the Sullivan Mine provided feed material to the Sullivan Concentrator located five kilometres from the mine. In turn, the Sullivan Concentrator delivered processed materials to the Fertilizer Operation and Iron and Steel Plant to be further refined into fertilizer, iron and steel. Kimberley Operations included water systems, rail transportation corridors, power and communication lines and various other structures and services throughout the City of Kimberley. Thousands of people contributed to the success of Kimberley Operations over the life of the Sullivan Mine. Over almost 100 years of operation, various tragic events resulted in the deaths of 88 individuals.Now that the Sullivan Mine is closed it is important to make sure that their deaths are remembered.Those who lost their lives will be forever a part of the legacy of mining activ-ities that helped create the City of Kimberley.

From page 1Mayor Don McCor-

mick agrees. “Despite the challenging condi-tions, feedback from coaches and competi-tors on our facilities and track was over the top - ‘among the top half dozen in North America’. This positive experience means the teams are most likely to return. We appreciate the RMI pro-gram and the incredible commitment of the Dreadnaught Team.”

Matt Mosteller, Se-nior VP Marketing, Sales and Resort Experience for Kimberley Alpine Re-sort and Resorts of the

Canadian Rockies sug-gests ski racing is a model for success. “This is great example of suc-cess driven by strategy and collaboration by all parties involved — this sport tourism strategy shows real economic de-velopment through wise investment, support and dedication by volunteer leaders.”

According to Eco-nomic Development Of-ficer Kevin Wilson, “Kimberley has received $682,342 in RMI funding since joining the pro-gram in 2007.  $75,000 is anticipated in 2016 and 2017. In the coming months we will be en-gaging the community to

identify projects for the next two years.”

stay the CourseAlthough I am of the opinion that it is

my duty to vote, I have not made my per-sonal views known. However, about two years ago I started to notice things going on in our city that concerned me. Some of these concerns were:

1). The fountain at the Fire Hall — I drive by the Fire Hall daily and I noticed that the construction of the fountain was taking forever, and I thought that this must be costing us a fortune. I then heard that the city workers were working on the fountain when they had nothing else to do, so we weren’t really incurring labour costs. I am sure that these workers were on the city payroll.

They were not working for free. If they had they had nothing else to do, and were being paid anyway, that raises a whole new batch of questions.

2). The next thing I noticed was anoth-er marathon project on 14th Avenue South, just below the Catholic Church. The end result of this is a weed and gar-bage filled ditch.

3). Then there were all the benches on 14th Avenue South. I have yet to see any-one sitting on these benches. Why not put some of these at some of the bus stops?

4). Next was the pile of rocks at the south entrance to town. I watched a rent-

al crane sit there for days and days. The end result is a sign that you cannot read (day or night), contrary to one ex-coun-cillor’s opinion. What did this project cost us?

5). Then I started hearing suggestions about dog parks and traffic circles and other grandiose schemes, including the old Fire Hall/CDAC issue. All the while our streets were getting worse and worse and our infrastructure was getting more fragile.

These activities really concerned me, and when I discovered there were citi-zens running against the incumbent mayor and council who shared my con-cerns, I volunteered to assist in an elec-tion campaign, something I had never done before. While I was out assisting this individual I discovered a very large number of people shared my concerns.

These citizens and I voted in a new council and mayor with approximately 65 per cent of the votes cast. The old guard was replaced en masse! What does this say about their ideas and policies? It says that the voters did not like the direc-tion the city was going. I am not suggest-ing that the previous mayor and council were wrong in all their decisions, just that the voters wanted something different going forward. In fact, I applaud all those who put their name forward. It is a big commitment and I for one am apprecia-tive of their efforts, whether I agree with them or not.

My final comments are directed to-wards our new mayor and council. The majority have spoken. Do not let a few dozen prolific letter writers sway you. Stay the course. Let’s get our city back on track.

What the numbers really tell us

When I went to university I majored in Science and minored in Economics for my first degree. Facts and numbers are important to me — you will often hear me responding to information with “Show me the science behind that state-ment.” I also have a real respect for his-tory and believe it should help to inform the present. It is from that perspective that I was musing on yesterday’s federal budget.

There is much to be said for balanc-ing budgets. When I was Mayor of Cran-brook we always balanced our budget – municipalities are bound by law to do so, which is why local government is often called the most fiscally responsi-ble level of government.

When I look at last Tuesday’s bal-anced federal budget I couldn’t help but be a little cynical, which is not how I approach life in general. That cynicism is based on a couple of things.

How was the budget balanced? $2 billion comes from reducing the govern-ment’s contingency fund down to $1 billion. This is the money that govern-ments put aside to cover the costs of natural disasters, or national crises. An-other $3.3 billion comes from selling off shares in General Motors.

Let’s put these choices into a context we can all understand. This method of balancing the budget would be the same as you paying your bills using money you received by selling your car at a fire sale price and cashing in your RRSP’s. Your bills might be paid but there is little reason to celebrate!

My second concern with this budget comes from reviewing recent history. The Harper Conservatives ran deficit budgets every year from 2008 to 2014 ranging from a low of $6.1 billion dollars to a record high of $58.2 billion. In the last 9 years Stephen Harper has added $4400 in new debt for every man, woman and child in Canada.

With this record, it is remarkable that anyone in Canada still believes the spin that the Harper Conservatives are good fiscal managers.

To m F l e Tc h e rBlack Press

The B.C. government re-leased details of its pre-elec-tion property sales Thursday, showing it came out with more money overall than ap-praisals or B.C. Assessment Authority values forecast.

Opposition critics called for the disclosure after obtain-ing government memos that showed a rush to make the deadline for the 2013-14 fiscal year, where the B.C. Liberals campaigned on a balanced budget tabled before the 2013 election.

NDP critics highlighted

property in Coquitlam that sold for millions less than an appraiser estimated it would get.

Finance Minister Mike de Jong said the 14 Burke Moun-tain properties are an “outli-er” in the dozens of land sales that closed during the finance ministry’s budget-balancing program. Later appraisals by the City of Coquitlam identi-fied steeper terrain and streams with protective set-backs that limited their devel-opment, decreasing their market value by 20 per cent overall.

Development property

south of the B.C. legislature beat its appraisal by $13 mil-lion, selling for $34 million to help the government meet a $350 million target to end the fiscal year.

A former hospital site in Surrey was sold for $20.5 mil-lion, $3 million less than its B.C. Assessment Authority value for property tax purpos-es. Finance ministry records showed the sale price was midway between two apprais-als, one commissioned by the government and the other by the buyer.

De Jong said surplus Crown property is sold every year,

with about 1,500 properties disposed of in the last 30 years. They will continue, but there won’t be another identi-fied program in future bud-gets now that post-recession deficits have ended, he said.

NDP finance critic Carole James said there was an obvi-ous rush to meet ministry tar-gets for asset sales, and some could continue to be sold below market value without the public knowing.

Many of the surplus prop-erties are school sites, and there are other transactions with municipalities.

B.C. land sales reached election target

PAGE 6 MONDAY, APRIL 27, 2015

Opposition is growing to legislation that would force Elections B.C. to give the political parties a complete list of every-one who voted in an election, once the campaign is over.

Privacy Commissioner Elizabeth Den-ham first rang the alarm bell about the proposal in an April 13 open letter, saying it represented an unwarranted intrusion into the personal privacy of voters and non-voters alike.

Denham recognized that political par-ties, through their volunteers, try to keep track of who votes early during a campaign for the purposes of driving people to the polls on election day and other get-out-the-vote efforts.

But she expressed deep concern that the after-the-fact measure would turn the independent elections office into a name-gathering agency for the parties, enabling them to spend the next four years targeting voters and non-voters for fundraising, lobbying and other “intru-sive purposes.”

Initially, none of the political parties responded favourably to Denham’s call for the measure to be withdrawn or re-written.

Not surprising, since the parties them-selves had lobbied for the change through their representatives on an election advi-sory committee. Amid growing difficulties in attracting enough volunteers to gather names at hundreds of advance polls and election day voting stations, they wanted to enlist the staff at Elections B.C. to pick up the slack.

After media coverage of the proposal — and a public-awareness effort by the watchdog group Integrity B.C. — opposi-tion politicians began acknowledging this week that Denham raised a valid concern.

First out of the gate was Vicki Hunting-ton, the Independent MLA for Delta South, who took direct aim at the major political parties.

“It’s an incredibly self-interested piece of legislation,” she declared in a Wednes-day press release. “Privacy concerns are

being brushed aside for the sake of mak-ing political campaigning easier for the parties.”

She further objected because the obli-gation to provide the list would apply to registered political parties but not to in-dependents like herself.

“This information should not be avail-able in the first place,” she said. “But at a minimum it should apply fairly to every-one who runs, not just to those working within the party machines.”

Following Huntington, Green MLA Andrew Weaver spoke out as well. “I do agree with the privacy commission-er’s concerns,” he told Global TV Thursday. “I will be voting against it.”

Both Huntington and Weaver promised to move limiting amendments

when the enabling legislation, Bill 20, is called for debate.

Then the New Democratic Party Op-position acknowledged the privacy com-missioner’s concerns as well.

“We think there’s some validity and le-gitimacy to some of the issues that she’s raised,” NDP house leader Mike Farnworth told me during an interview on Voice of B.C. on Shaw TV Thursday evening.

“And so what we’ve said that we’re going to do is to put in place an amend-ment that will tighten the language around how the information can be used. For example, it could not be used for commercial purposes. We hope that the government accepts it.”

The NDP had to tread carefully be-cause, as Farnworth conceded, his party had sought the measure along with the others: “All parties have indicated that they would like that.”

Indeed, the New Democrats would ap-pear to have originated the idea back in October 2012 at a meeting of the all-party advisory committee to Elections B.C.

Meeting minutes indicate that Jan O’Brien, then a senior NDP official, “asked if parties could be provided with a data extract of voters who participated follow-ing the election. She explained that this

information would help with engagement efforts.”

Embracing the notion was Mike Mc-Donald, representing the Liberals. “He explained that while they can collect voter participation information at voting plac-es, it is inefficient for the party. He added that a voter participation extract would benefit parties in their efforts to get the vote out.”

That’s still the position of the Liberals, judging from a missive put out on social media this week by executive director Laura Miller.

“Provincial parties currently have ac-cess to voter participation data through advance polls and election day,” she wrote in a series of postings on Twitter. “Pro-posed changes simplify the manner in which this info is provided, levelling the playing field for all, including emerging parties. Ensures all parties can play an active role in encouraging greater voter engagement and higher voter turnout. Good for democracy.”

She also disclosed that she’d recently been in touch with NDP officials to con-firm that her party still supported the change: “They said they did too.” But that was before Farnworth announced the ap-parent change of direction.

Which could make for some interest-ing exchanges across the floor of the house once the bill is called for debate, perhaps as early as next week.

For all that, Miller doesn’t dispute that the privacy commissioner raised a valid concern.

“I appreciate the privacy commission-er raising flags,” she told me Friday. “We must be thoughtful when managing per-sonal information and I hope, if this pass-es, that Elections B.C. consults with her on the rules. It isn’t and can never be carte blanche.”

Enough room there to incorporate those concerns into a compromise amendment to the legislation, if only the parties will seize the opening and avoid the showdown.

Wheat Kings take lead in WHL’s

Eastern Conference championship

Rob HendeRsonBrandon Sun

Given the playoff track records of both teams, it seemed like only a matter of time be-fore the Brandon Wheat Kings and Calgary Hit-men took an Eastern Conference final game into overtime.

It happened on Sat-urday night at Westman Place as the Wheat Kings, coming off a 9-4 victory in the opening game of the WHL play-off series, took a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven set by nipping the Hitmen 3-2 in OT. Brandonite T y l e r C o u l t e r tipped in Ryan Pilon’s point shot for the win-ning goal, only 51 seconds into the extra session.

The Wheat Kings have gone a sparkling 4-0 when extra time is needed, but head coach and general manager Kelly McCrimmon said there’s little more that can be read into their success than some well-executed plays at the key point of the game.

“We’ve played four overtime games, they’ve played seven, so it wasn’t uncharted territory for either team,” McCrim-mon said. “It’s hard to predict. We put a puck deep, (Jayce) Hawryluk won a battle with a Cal-gary defenceman, gen-erated two quick chanc-es. … Then, as we went on, a shot from the point where we did have traf-fic, and that’s sometimes how those things hap-pen in overtime.”

Hawryluk and Peter Quenneville scored first-period goals to put the Wheat Kings up 2-0 before the Hitmen bat-tled back to tie the game on Adam Tambellini’s marker late in the first and Michael Zipp’s point shot through traffic in the third that forced overtime.

Aided by some Bran-don misses on quality opportunities, Calgary goalie Brendan Burke made 43 saves, nearly doubling the 22 by Bran-

don’s Jordan Papirny. But once overtime came around, the Wheat Kings netminder wasn’t tested at all as his teammates immediately swarmed the Hitmen net and didn’t let up until Coulter had clinched the win.

Quenneville said the Wheat Kings have fol-lowed a simple recipe in their overtime games.

“I think you’ve just got to stay calm,” said Quenneville, who has scored one of Brandon’s OT winners. “We try to preach just to keep play-ing and keep doing what

we’re doing, and you’ve just got to keep fight-ing and trust that some-one in the room’s going to be that

hero. And so far we’ve had guys step up and get that big goal.”

Already without high-scoring forward Connor Rankin, the Hit-men played Game 2 without two more of their top producers in Chase Lang, who was hurt in Game 1 and Jake Virtanen, who was sus-pended following the se-ries opener. Zipp said the Hitmen gained some confidence as the series shifts to Calgary for Game 3 on Tuesday.

“We were down a couple bodies tonight,” Zipp said. “Some guys stepped up big time and played a lot of minutes. We showed we can play with (the Wheat Kings).”

Coulter expects the Wheat Kings will also benefit from the way Sat-urday’s game played out.

“This definitely adds a lot of intensity to the series,” he said. “It’s real-ly good for us to have a game like this. We don’t learn too much when the games get out of hand either way, so I think this really helped us going into Game 3.”

ONE-TIMERS: Mc-Crimmon’s 62nd career playoff coaching win moved him into sole possession of ninth placed on the WHL’s all-time list … Hawryluk (seven goals, five assists) is on an eight-game point-scoring streak …

Wheat Kings LW Tanner Kaspick and D Kale Clague, who were hurt in the opener, both missed Game 2. Brandon’s other scratches were C/RW Reid Duke, LW Quintin Lisoway, LW Ty Lewis, D Mark Taraschuk and G Logan Thompson … The length of Virtanen’s sus-pension, for the hit that injured Kaspick, hasn’t been determined yet … Calgary coach Mark French was fined $1,000 by the WHL for his stick-throwing outburst and ejection in Game 1 … Saturday’s crowd was 5,004.

AVONDALE, La. - Justin Rose birdied the final two holes Sunday to win the Zurich Classic.

Rose, who entered the week ranked ninth in the world, completed a 7-under 65 in the rain-delayed third round and closed with a 66 at TPC Louisiana for his seventh PGA Tour title.

The Englishman has won at least once in six straight seasons, the sec-ond-longest streak on

the tour behind Dustin Johnson’s eight straight.

Playing aggressively on a soggy course, Rose made six birdies in the final round and played the last 66 holes without a bogey. He finished at 22-under 266.

Rose’s final two putts from 10 and 13 1/2 feet allowed him to hold off Cameron Tringale by a stroke. Tringale birdied the 18th for a 65.

Boo Weekley, led after the first round, fin-ished third at 20 under,

and Jim Herman and Jason Day tied for fourth at 19 under.

David Hearn of Brantford, Ont., tied for sixth at 18-under par. Nick Taylor of Abbots-ford, Ont., was in a group tied for 48th at 10 under, while Calgary’s Roger Sloan was tied for 70th, even at par.

When Rose sank his final putt, he punched his right hand high above his head and looked behind the green to fans in the suite of one

of his sponsors, Zurich, which also sponsors the tournament. He took off his white cap whipped it across his body and flexed his arm to bring attention to the spon-sor’s logo on his sleeve.

Rose began the final round tied with Day for the lead at 16 under. Day found trouble when he hooked his drive into trees lining the left boundary of the second fairway. Next swing, his ball smacked a tree and bounced back to him.

Five reasons for Calgary Flames

advancedonna spenceR

Canadian Press

CALGARY - The Cal-gary Flames advanced to the second round of NHL playoffs for the first time since 2004 and will face the Anaheim Ducks. Not considered a playoff contender this season, here are five reasons the Flames beat the Vancou-ver Canucks four games to two in the first round.

1. A light team plays a heavy game

Series against Van-couver turned nasty in the Games 2 and 3. The Flames, the playoff team with the lightest average weight, took care of themselves and each other. Calgary had the third-least penalty min-utes during the regular season. As of Sunday, they had the most in the first round with 152.

2. T.J. Brodie“Supersonic”, accord-

ing to coach Bob Hartley, the tireless defenceman was Calgary’s bedrock on offence and defence. His speed with and with-out the puck opened up scoring chances and his poise in Calgary’s end was a heart-rate relaxant. Averaged 27 minutes a game and was plus-three.

3. Sam Bennett and Michael Ferland

Calgary got new for-wards for the post-sea-son without trading for them. Stepping in for injured Lance Bouma, Ferland was a punishing deterrent against Van-couver. In addition to 40 hits in six games, Fer-land scored late in the first period Saturday to spark Calgary’s come-back. With just one reg-

ular-season game under his belt, 18-year-old Bennett scored the game-winner in Game 3 and brings a combina-tion of speed, skill and scrappiness to the post-season lineup.

4. Top line of Hudler, Gaudreau & Monahan

Somewhat quiet with three power-play goals between them over the first five games of the se-ries, centre Sean Monah-an and wingers Jiri Hud-ler and Johnny Gaudreau brought it when it really mattered. They pro-duced four goals in Game 6 including two equalizers. Calgary had zero second-period goals in the series until Monahan and Gaudreau collected their first at even-strength Saturday.

5. Bob HartleyCalgary’s coach con-

tinues to foster his play-ers’ belief in themselves and each other with a light, but decisive touch. Pulling starter Jonas Hill-er with less than eight minutes played in Game 6 wasn’t an “uh-oh” mo-ment. Hartley followed the philosophy during the season of “he who wins the last game, starts the next.” The Flames play as confidently in front of Karri Ramo as they do Hiller, in contrast to the Mikka Kiprusoff days when the Flames were tentative in front of a seldom-used backup. Hartley preaches “no fear” to his troops and he practised it with his bold goalie move. “I said ‘there’s no way that I’m going back to Vancou-ver,”’ the coach said. “My job was to go down strik-ing and not get caught looking.”

than the minuses. You need to be more trusting of your own thought process and also of those around you. Understand what is happening between you and someone else. Think before you act. Tonight: You need some downtime. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Tension builds during the day. You might question your choices and the reasons behind them. Slow down and listen to feed-back, because the results will be much better if you do. The late afternoon will lead to an important discussion. Tonight: Zero in on what you want. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Reach out for more information and greet a loved one’s feedback positively. You might not agree, but more insight always helps to solidify your ideas or plans. Tension is likely to build later in the day; perhaps, you feel as if you have not done enough. Tonight: Out late. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) A one-on-one conversation will lead you down a different path. How you deal with someone’s

responses could change after this talk. You might not agree with this person, but you will understand him or her better as a result. Detach if possible. Tonight: Relax to music. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You don’t have trouble making the first move, but others might want to step up first. They could get difficult if you try to bypass them. You seem to be review-ing a matter in your head that revolves around your personal life. Tonight: Sort through invi-tations, then choose. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You could be overwhelmed by everything that is happening around you. Your words, though well-intended, might fall flat. Verbalize the same statement in different ways until you make some headway. Clear out as much as you can. Tonight: Re-turn calls, then decide. BORN TODAY Author Coretta Scott King (1927), inventor Samuel Morse (1791), former U.S. President Ulysses S. Grant (1822) ***

Dear Annie: Two years ago, I made a big mistake. I married a widower and agreed to move into his house in a large city that is a 30-minute drive from the small town I love living in. I now realize that I absolutely hate liv-ing in the city and, more importantly, living in the home that he and his late wife picked out and decorated together. Initially, he said I could make changes to the house, but the only changes he is willing to make involve replacing worn-out things with newer versions of the exact same style and color. I thought I could redecorate using some of his things and some of mine to make a home of our own. Instead, I feel like a permanent houseguest. I love my husband, and our relation-ship is wonderful except for this issue. Here’s the real problem: I recently learned that I have metastatic breast cancer. I cannot bear the thought of living what’s left of my life in his house and in this city. Three years ago, he said he’d move into a condo in five years. Last month, he said the same thing. I know he’s not ready. But he is 81, and I am 70, and it’s time to downsize. He knows how I feel, because we’ve had quite a few discus-sions about it. But because he’s most likely going to outlive me, I don’t feel it’s fair to ask him to move to another place when he doesn’t want to. He owns a condo in my hometown that he rents out. I own a house that is rented out, although mine still has a small mortgage on it. I’m thinking of asking him not to renew the rental on his condo so we can stay there some of the time and in his home the rest of the time. I am so torn inside. What do you think? -- T. Dear T.: We think you have suggested an excellent compromise -- live in the condo part of the time, and in his house for the rest. You also could stop rent-ing your house and live there part of the time. Should your husband outlive you, he can move wherever he chooses. Right now, you should not be stressed about your living situation, and we hope your husband cares enough to make you as comfortable as possible. We think he will want to do whatever he can. Dear Annie: You printed a letter from “M.W.,” who doesn’t like to travel be-cause she suffers from motion sickness. When I lost the sight in one eye, my ophthalmologist said I’d no longer get airsick or carsick. He said a NASA astro-naut discovered that by closing one eye, the dizziness from the effects of being weightless went away. He was right. I can now fly and look out the plane win-dow or read while riding in a car and suffer no ill effects. I have told several people who suffer from carsickness to close one eye or wear an eye patch, and they have re-ported back that it worked for them. Maybe this will help others. -- One Ad-vantage Dear Advantage: Thanks for the inter-esting suggestion. We hadn’t heard of this before, and we hope our readers who have this problem will try your solution.

In Remembrance of Rose Johnstone

Your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure,You are loved beyond words,And missed beyond measure.

Gates of memories will never close.How much we miss you, no one knows...

Days have passed away, into years....And we’ll think about those memories,

With silent tears.

Love and miss you always and forever,Bud and Family.

Western Financial Group hosted the Pink the Rink event back in February to raise awareness and funds for local anti-bullying initiatives. The event was hosted at Western Financial Place during the Kootenay Ice game on February 20.

Western Financial Group sold pink pucks to be tossed onto the ice during the second intermission. In total, the event raised $1,595 and now Western Fi-nancial Group has do-nated $500 to four schools in Cranbrook for their anti-bullying initiatives.
