New water quality tax in the works

By Barb BrouwerMARkEt NEWS StAff

Everyone was onboard with the Shuswap Water-shed Council’s water quality monitoring program.

But how to pay for it was the basis of much discussion at an Aug. 20 on-the-road meeting of the Columbia Shuswap Regional District board in Golden.

Directors approved a Shuswap Watershed Water Quality Service Establishment Bylaw, but not the way staff recommended.

Staff had recommended an assessment-based tax which, based on the average assessed value of 1,700 parcels in the District of Sicamous and elec-toral areas C, D, E and F, would have been $10.30 annually for the average household.

“But after some discussion, the board deter-mined the preferred method to be a parcel tax,” said CSRD chief administrative officer Charles Hamilton. “The differential between a parcel tax and a property value tax for the average assessed residential property was minimal, in fact slightly lower for the assessment scheme.”

Salmon Arm will make an annual contribution of $40,000 for three years through a contractual arrangement, but will do so through its own taxa-tion process.

CSRD would enter into a similar contract with the Thompson Nicola Regional District, but no time frame has been set yet.

The bylaw was given three readings and will now go to the Ministry of Sport and Cultural

Shuswap Watershed Council: cSRD directors opt to fund program through a parcel tax.

Development for ap-proval.

After the approval is obtained, the CSRD has to initiate an alter-native approval process (APP).

“That will com-mence after we receive approval and everyone

will have the opportu-nity to petition against the tax if they don’t support it,” said Hamil-ton. “Staff recommend-ed the APP process given that, in the larger scheme of things, the annual requisition is not overly significant and there appears to be broad public support for the water quality

program generally.If more than 10 per

cent of those eligible to file petition against the initiative do so, CSRD will be unable to pro-ceed with the bylaw.

“In such circum-stances, the decision for the CSRD would be to go to a full-scale referendum,” Hamilton says.

Police warn against confronting suspectRCMP are warning

the public not to try and apprehend a suspect af-ter a homeowner was injured in a confronta-tion.

On Aug. 20 at 5:15 a.m., a man was seen lurking in a home-owner’s driveway in the 1600 block of 3rd

Street. The man was wearing a balaclava and RCMP report it appeared that he might have been entering ve-hicles, although his exact intentions are un-known.

The homeowner confronted the suspect outside and the suspect

sprayed him with bear spray.

The spray incapaci-tated the homeowner, who received medical assistance from B.C. Ambulance Service personnel. Meanwhile, police made patrols, but were unsuccessful in locating the suspect.

“Any case where you personally confront a would-be thief and enter into any kind of confrontation could end poorly for the in-nocent party,” says RCMP Staff Sgt. Scott West. “Again, call 911 and make sure you pre-serve your safety.”

Despite all the education and sig-nage around a ban that has been in place for 50 days now, people con-tinue to break the law when it comes to campfires.

The campfire ban has been in place throughout the region since July 3, yet conservation officers is-sued 13 tickets so far in August alone and received 42 complaints of campfires.

“There is zero tolerance now,” said Sgt. Josh Lockwood, conser-vation officer who covers Kelowna to Seymour Arm and to the Nakusp ferry.

“We are just asking people to be vigilant and abide by the regula-tions, they are there for a purpose.”

With fires burning throughout the province this summer, it’s not likely the ban will be lifted anytime soon.

But people still aren’t getting the message.

In fact two tickets were issued Tuesday evening in the Aberdeen plateau, right after a Global Okana-gan newscast on the fact that people continue to flout the ban.

And ignorance is no excuse, says Lockwood.

“It’s on every highway sign as you come into the province, you can’t travel a back road without seeing a sign and lots of communities have done their own (signs).”

One of the recent tickets issued was for an abandoned fire on Irish Creek Road (just north of Vernon). The individual responsible for the fire was located and issued a $345 ticket for having the fire, plus an-other $173 for failure to extinguish a fire.

“We’ve had people using burning barrels burning garbage, we had one golf course that did a bunch of trim-mings after a storm and burned dur-ing the day.”

While complaints are a main source of how officers are alerted to

fires, they are also discovering fires in remote areas on their own.

Those who are caught around a campfire are reminded that they too are on the hook for the $345 fine.

“Even if they didn’t start it, every person who uses that fire is also tick-eted,” said Lockwood.

Some of the excuses Lockwood has heard include:

“I didn’t start it. It was here when I got here.”

“It’s out now, it was just a little one we cooked a hotdog on.”

“What’s camping without a camp-fire?”

“I have a fire but I know how to put it out.”

But even if the fire is out when of-ficers arrive, if there a witness to the fire, tickets will be issued.

While they are out, officers are also finding additional illegal ac-tivities, such as impaired driving on back roads, which they will issue a 24-hour drivers licence suspension for. And it’s not just land activity that is keeping conservation officers busy. They are also patrolling the lakes.

The North Okanagan Enhanced Policing Patrols cover Mabel, Sugar and Mara Lakes as well as Cosens Bay (it is in addition to the Okana-gan and Shuswap patrols).

Since the enhanced patrols started at the end of June until Aug. 8 they have checked 153 vessels, 426 peo-ple, issued 56 violations, 202 warn-ings and ordered 19 boats off the wa-ter for either alcohol consumption or safety issues.

Tickets are issued for a variety of reasons from no life jackets (which paddle boarders are also ticketed for) to no pleasure craft operator card or no registration to towing without a spotter, littering and angling without a licence.

“There’s not a lot of compliance,” said Lockwood, as there are usually few boats and operators out on the water which meet requirements.

Changes are in the works for the SmartCentres shopping centre in Salmon Arm.

A Winners store and a Dollarama at the site are getting closer to reality, while a third Salmon Arm Tim Hortons restaurant is projected for late next year.

City staff report that a building permit was is-sued for Dollarama on Aug. 17, with a construc-tion value of approximately $1.18 million. Four days later, on Aug. 21, a building permit with a construction value of nearly $3 million was issued for Winners.

As for Tim Hortons, Kelly Moores, owner of the two existing Salmon Arm franchises, confirms the plan is to put a Tim Hortons at SmartCentres likely in October or November of 2016.

“Things can change all the time so I wouldn’t say it’s a done deal yet,” he cautioned.

Moores says he predicts it will be a smaller store than the other two, with a double drive-thru, or two lanes of drive thru.

“It’ll just offer another alternative for customers on that end of town; because of the closeness to other retail, there will be a lot of evening busi-ness.”

He noted it will also be closer for people stay-ing in cabins in areas such as the North Shuswap, and will cater to the industrial area on the west side of Salmon Arm.

He expects it will employ about the same num-ber of staff as the other two Tim Hortons.

“We typically run with 30-plus employees per location.”

Sandra Kaiser, vice-president of corporate af-fairs for SmartCentres, also confirmed a Tim Hor-tons.

“Yes, Tim Hortons along with Winners and Dollarama will be tenants on our site. As soon as I have more precise timing of openings, I will let you know,” she stated Monday in an email.

VICTORIA – The B.C. legislature is being recalled Sept. 28 for a fall session that will likely deal with in-creasing penalties for distracted driv-ing and careless smoking.

The B.C. government has sig-nalled its intention to increase pen-alties in both areas. Justice Minister Suzanne Anton announced prelimi-nary results of public consultation on distracted driving penalties at the end of June, with 90 per cent of respon-dents calling for stiffer penalties for using smartphones while driving.

Anton said the current $167 ticket for distracted drivers is not sufficient for repeat offenders, who could have their vehicles impounded. Saskatch-ewan has introduced a one-week sei-zure of the vehicle for drivers who get two distracted driving tickets less than a year apart.

After dry conditions sparked an early start to the B.C. forest fire sea-

son, Forests Minister Steve Thomson announced a review of penalties for violating campfire bans and tossing lit cigarettes. 

Thomson appointed Prince George-Mackenzie MLA Mike Mor-ris, a former RCMP superintendent, to lead a similar review of those pen-alties. Morris said he was consider-ing the vehicle impoundment option for careless tossing of cigarette butts, and prohibiting people from camp-ing in provincial parks if they violate campfire restrictions.

Fire bans allow use of camp stoves or barbecues with briquets for cook-ing, but conservation officers contin-ue to find people lighting wood fires that give off sparks and can spread in dry conditions.

The fall session will complete an unusually busy year for the B.C. leg-islature, which was recalled in July to authorize a project development agreement for the Pacific Northwest LNG gas export project proposed for Prince Rupert.

Each morning for the past week or so I have walked out the door where I’m stay-ing here in Fort Steele to look up at an eerie, fiery red ball hanging in the sky. It is the sun, covered by a hazy shroud of smoke from all the fires burning just south of here.

I cannot help but think about all the fires that I cov-ered when I was still at the Observer. Those images will stay with me forever.

In the evenings, however, I have also been able to enjoy just sitting out in the back-yard, thankful for the cool breezes that have been blow-ing through. The night air is a welcome respite from the hot days and smoke-filled skies. Sunsets too have been strangely interesting. Some nights the whole sky seems to be on fire, especially when there is a bit of cloud in the sky. Even the moon has taken on an eerie, other world, reddish-orange ap-pearance. It is strangely in-teresting looking up at the moon, bathed in its crimson shroud of red. I don’t know how many times I used to sit in my front yard in Salmon

Arm on a clear summer’s evening looking up at the moon, contemplating the true meaning of life or some such nonsense.

Some years back, how-ever, I did learn to take the moon into consideration when I was planning my fishing trips. I now always make a point of consulting something called the Solu-nar Tables when making my plans.

The word ‘solunar’ comes from sol (sun) and lunar (moon). The basis for the Solunar Tables is derived from the concept that the sun and moon affect the tides, and that the rise and fall of the tides are caused by the force or pull exerted by the moon.

The theory of the Solunar Tables was developed by John Alden Knight, author of The Modern Angler: In-cluding the Solunar Theory, 1936. Initially, Knight com-pared 33 factors that seemed to influence the behavior of fish and caused them to be-come more active. Of those, he further examined three: sunrise and sunset, phases of the moon and tides. From those he developed the Solu-nar Tables. To substantiate his theory, Knight system-atically compared the tim-ing of 200 record catches and found that more than 90 per cent were made dur-ing a new moon (even when one was not visible). This is the time when the influence of solunar periods is stron-gest. Because of the interac-tion of many solar and lunar cycles, no two days, months or years are ever the same. June has a greater combined solunar influence than any other month. During a full moon, the sun and moon are nearly opposite each other and throughout the course of the day either one is nearly always on the hori-zon. Whereas, during a new

moon, both celestial bodies are in near-perfect alignment travelling through the sky to-gether with their forces and influences combined. If one is willing to concede the sun and moon affect the tides in the oceans and seas, then it should not be too much of a leap of faith to believe they exert a similar influence on inland bodies of water.

Scientists concur that fish in both tidal and non-tidal waters are affected by the sun and moon at specific times of the day.

The Solunar Tables were developed from this rela-tionship. Each day is divided into four periods: two in the morning and two in the af-ternoon. There are two types of periods, one known as the major period and the other referred to as the minor pe-riod. The major period is usually of approximately two-hours duration and the minor lasting one to one-and-a-half hours. Each day has two major and two mi-nor periods. The trick is to know when these periods will occur on any given day, and then, plan your fishing trips accordingly.

OpiniOn

The GreaT OuTdOOrs

James Murray

reading the sun and the moon

The deaths of three firefighters in Washington State are a reminder of how much these brave people are putting on the line, on both sides of the border. Last Wednesday, three U.S. Forest Service firefighters died after their vehicle crashed and was likely caught by flames as they battled the Okanogan complex of fires near the town of Twisp. Four other firefighters were injured including one who was taken to hospital in critical condition.

They were on the initial attack, trying to stop a fire before it could threaten nearby communities – in some cases, their hometown.

Firefighters know how dangerous their jobs can be, whether it is day-to-day operations of our local department or forestry service crews battling major wildfires. But it’s so very easy for the public to take their work for granted, and it’s stunning when such a tragedy happens. Considering the level of danger, it is amazing that relatively few are lost.

Evacuees from the Rock Creek blaze and other fires also are dealing with their personal adversity in loss of homes and livelihoods or the uncertainty of not yet knowing what has been lost. But we who aren’t directly exposed to the fires, complaining about the smoke and ash in the air, and the other inconveniences brought on by fires burning in our region and south of the border, might imagine the risk is small.

The deaths of Tom Zbyszewski, Rick Wheeler and Andrew Zajac show us how great the risk firefighters face is, and continues to be for the thousands of fire-fighters battling blazes in B.C. and Washington. As you read this, they are still digging in with shovels and axes in searing heat and choking smoke, strug-gling against so many fires it is hard to keep track.

We extend our thanks to these brave men and women who are putting their lives in front of wild-fires to protect people and property from devastation and death.

VIEW POINTTime to get off the sidelines

At a time when those wanting to be our next MP are out on the hus-tings, Mel Arnold’s ap-proach is interesting.

The Conservative candidate is cherry-picking which forums he attends leading up to the Oct. 19 election.

“We’re trying to bal-ance our time, we have a busy schedule and we’re doing as much door-knocking as pos-sible and meeting people one-on-one,” said Arnold in a recent article.

He has committed to forums hosted by the Greater Vernon and Salmon Arm chambers of commerce but, as of press time, he still hasn’t said yes to an

invite to participate in a forum hosted by the Vernon Performing Arts Centre Society.

“Why can’t he take part in two?” said Sig-rid-Ann Thors, society president, of Arnold.

“I don’t think that’s a great problem when running a 78-day cam-paign.”

And Thors raises a valid point as previous campaigns were about 37 days long and can-didates generally were able to juggle the vari-ous demands placed on them, whether it was forums, teas or shak-ing hands and kissing babies.

This time around, the campaign is twice as long so there should be sufficient time to fit everything in, and per-haps even a little bit more.

Arnold has indicated that he’s receiving mul-tiple requests to appear at forums throughout the riding.

That’s likely the case, but it’s also the nature of the beast in a vast riding that ranges from

Cherryville to Falkland and from Coldstream to Chase and the North Shuswap. Each com-munity, no matter how big or small, is distinct and they want to hear from the election hope-fuls directly.

By not attending a forum in one of these communities, a candi-date can be perceived as not taking the com-munity seriously. Such a move can feed a com-mon attitude that the larger towns are more important than their smaller, rural counter-parts.

Beyond geography and civic identities, some forums focus on specific issues such as the environment. If a candidate doesn’t at-tend, what does that potentially say about the candidate and their attitudes towards that issue?

Of course there will be those who will try and link Arnold’s ac-tivities to those of Conservative leader Stephen Harper, who is boycotting some na-

tional leaders’ debates. But I suspect Arnold is legitimately trying to balance his schedule and not controlling the message as occurs at the senior level.

In the interview, Ar-nold didn’t appear con-cerned that selectively attending forums will negatively impact his chances, particularly in Vernon where the Salmon Arm resident isn’t widely known.

“We’re spending hours and days door-knocking throughout the riding, meeting people face-to-face and we’re in Vernon almost every week at the Av-enue Market,” he said.

But while forums aren’t the be-all and end-all, they do provide an opportunity to ap-pear before a captive audience, especially in the smaller communi-ties. It’s like speed dat-ing for the electorate wanting to become in-formed. Door-knocking is a key campaign strat-egy but it’s hit and miss as people may not be home or the reception

may not be overwhelm-ing if you show up dur-ing Wheel of Fortune.

The other thing to consider if you are a candidate is, why would you give your competitors an advan-tage? But that’s exactly what you are doing if they show up at a forum and you don’t.

Hopefully Arnold will free up some time in his busy schedule and not disappoint the volunteer organizations that put the forums to-gether or the public he wants to represent.

GUEST SHOT

Richard Rolke

Campaign trail littered with ‘empty bottles’When there’s a

drought, people under-stand the long-term im-plications but still need to be prodded into cut-ting back on their wa-ter consumption. Most people do it willingly and a few cheat. But

none of us expect the restrictions to be lifted until the reservoirs are once again filled.

Where does this col-lective common sense go when there’s an election? Canada is tee-tering on the edge of a

recession and the global economy is facing what could be called an eco-nomic drought. Our politicians, even the ar-rogant ones who preach fiscal restraint and rant against government handouts, are tossing

around expensive elec-tion promises as if they are empty water bottles and then claiming only their party has the mag-ic necessary to create the rain to fill them.

Named after Cecel the brave lion. Cecelia arrived to us after being rescued. She and her three sisters found themselves up a very tall tree and after a few days still could not get down. Her rescuers set up a tarp near the ground for the kittens to bounce off of and it worked. Cecelia went into foster care for a few days to get used to being around humans and is now ready to � nd her forever home. She loves cuddles and scratches on her ears and near her tail. She would do well in a quieter home with someone who loves to cuddle.

Quick action by the Tappen Sunnybrae Fire Department prevented the loss of a home and shop on Ford Road on Monday evening.

At 4:19 p.m., the call came in that a tree had blown onto a hydro line and the resulting sparks ignited a forested area.

Seventeen firefight-ers responded and were able to put water on the blaze right away; how-ever, due to the gusty winds, other fire depart-ments were called as back up.

“Then Mother Na-ture helped us out. Just as we got water on the fire, the wind died down,” says Fire Chief Kyle Schneider.

This enabled the fire-fighters to get a handle on the blaze, and then they dug a fire guard around the nearby home and shop. The fire came within 10 feet of the shop before it was contained.

Firefighters then sprayed the area with a special foam to keep the area moist and help prevent any hot spots

from flaring up.The homeowner and

his dog were outside the residence when the fire department ar-rived, but the man was worried for his cats in-side.

“The firefighters worked their butts off. I’m very impressed… The homeowner sure was lucky,” Schneider says.

(NC) Now that the sun is shining and the birds are singing, it’s time to get outside for some favourite summer activities. Is a lack of energy holding you back?

Men over 40 often deal with fatigue, poor concentration, body and mood changes, and/or reduced libido, and attribute these changes to age. For some, age isn’t the only issue. Changes in energy, mood and motivation can be caused by a number of other factors, as follows:

Sleepless nights: Sleep plays an integral role in our day-to-day lives, and getting enough is as vital for fueling the body as food is. Losing even one hour of sleep a night affects your ability to think properly and respond quickly. It also impacts your cardiovascular health, energy levels, and ability to fight infections. While sleep requirements vary from one person to the next, it’s important to get enough for the body to function optimally.

Got the blues: Depression can affect

how a person thinks, feels or acts. Changes in mood and energy that get in the way of everyday activities, productivity at work, or cause strain on relationships, should be addressed with the help of a healthcare professional.

Couching around: Lack of physical

activity can impact physical and mental health. An analysis by University of Georgia researchers found overwhelming evidence that regular exercise plays a significant role in increasing energy levels and reducing fatigue. Making time for exercise is important to improve mood, control weight and help your body fight infection.

Hormones on hiatus: Hypogonadism, also known as low testosterone, is estimated to affect up to 25 per cent of men in Canada over the age of 40. While testosterone levels naturally and gradually decrease to a degree with age, it’s important to be aware of the role this hormone plays in the body. Symptoms of abnormally low levels of testosterone include fatigue or lack of energy, low sex drive, depressed mood, decrease in bone density, increases in body fat, loss of muscle mass and sexual dysfunction. Men over the age of 40 with any of these symptoms should speak to their doctor. www.newscanada.com

TIPS TO HELP PREVENT SUICIDE(NC) It is all too easy

to think of suicide as something that happens to other people’s families. We want to believe that youth who experience suicidal thoughts or behaviours come from dysfunctional families or they have been exposed to violence, neglect, or abuse. While these factors may increase the risk of suicide, it’s important to understand that suicidal thinking and behaviours cross all racial, economic, social and ethnic lines. No one is immune.

When individuals are overwhelmed, whether by life stresses, mental health

problems or mental illness, suicidal behaviour may seem like a way of coping. People can have suicidal thoughts or feelings when they feel disconnected from other people, helpless to deal with issues, and/or hopeless about their situation ever improving.

All youth are different; however, if you are concerned that your youth may have a problem, look for changes in how he or she is thinking, feeling or acting.

Here are some warning signs to look for from the Partners for Mental Health’s parent guide:

Does your youth:• seem very unhappy,

worried, guilty, fearful, irritable, sad, or angry?

• feel helpless, hopeless, lonely, or rejected?

• complain about being a bad person or have a negative self-image?

• blame him or herself for things beyond their control?

• want to be alone often or have trouble getting along with friends?

• have trouble concentrating?

• have trouble relaxing or sleeping?

• exhibit aggressive, impulsive, rebellious, and/or violent behaviour?

• overreact to fairly small incidents?

• seem preoccupied with death?

Additional information is available within the free parent guide from the national charity, Partners for Mental Health at www.rightbyyou.ca.

Jeff Moat is the President of Partners for Mental Health, an organization that seeks to transform the way Canadians think about, act towards and support mental health and people living with a mental illness.

Juvenile team being formed

For the first time in years, Salmon Arm Minor Hockey As-sociation will attempt to ice a Juvenile recreation team in the Okanagan Mainline Amateur Hockey Association.

Since overage midget players will not be allowed to participate in the Midget Recreation Super-league as of this year, interested players between the ages of 18 and 20 have an option for sign-ing up to play juvenile hockey. Salmon Arm has an illustrious juvenile hockey history as they brought home the provincial championships back in the early ’70s.

First practise is tentatively scheduled for Sept. 10. Players must bring registration forms and fees prior to first skate on Sept. 10. Four other teams in the Okanagan might join this league.

For more info, interested play-ers can contact Betty Turko at 250-253-8163, Kim Dodge at 250-832-7626 or the minor hockey office at 250-832-0095.

In Canada, it is es-timated that the aver-age meal travels 2,400 kilometres to get from field to plate and con-tains ingredients from five other countries.

When we visit our grocery stores, we are confronted with such a vast array of choice, we are left overwhelmed: what should we eat? Local food? Organic Food? Whatever is on sale?

While most of us agree with the idea of supporting a local food economy and avoid-ing pesticides, we have difficulty paying the premium that these choices can entail.

Why is it more ex-pensive to eat local food? Why should the consumer pay more money for making an environmentally re-sponsible choice that is better for our health?

One of the problems with our current food system is that the cost at the supermarket does not usually reflect the true cost of the food to our planet and our health. “Cheap” foods – instant noodles, hot dogs, crackers – are enabled by processing high volumes of gov-ernment subsidized inputs into products that will last longer on your shelf. Meanwhile, the related costs to our health and environ-ment are externalized.

The industrial food system is happy to sell us tasty, addictive foods with little nu-tritional value, but are less willing to pick up the tab for problems their system contribute to: increased health-care costs, waistlines and disease; increased fossil fuel use and pol-lution to waterways, airways, pathways.  

In an ideal food sys-tem, the government would support and en-force environmental stewardship in all food production and encour-age a robust local food economy, rather than depend on the consum-er, who may not have the choice to pay more for food.

So what can we do to help?

When at the grocery store, pay attention to where your food origi-nated.

• Grow your own food (or befriend a kind neighbour with a garden.)

• Support your local farmer’s market.

• Write your MLA and vote for politicians who will support more and facilitate a local food economy and sounder food policy.

• Choose seasonal foods when you can.

If you have the finan-cial means, support the food system that you believe in!

On Aug. 22, Chase RCMP received a call regarding an attempted theft of fuel from a ve-hicle at Chabellos RV Resort.

The complain-ant stated a male in his thirties, who was balding and wearing a T-shirt, attempted to syphon fuel from the complainant’s pickup truck.

The complainant grabbed the can and the perpetrator fled the scene in a blue Dodge Ram 1500.

Forensic Identifica-tion Services will be assisting the investiga-

tion with scene analy-sis.

 Oops

On Aug. 22 about 8:30 a.m., Chase RCMP received a call regarding a collision on the Trans-Canada Highway near Elson Road in Sorrento.

The driver, a man from Australia, was driving a rental Nissan Altima when he col-lided with a concrete highway barrier. 

Police say cause of the collision was likely inattention while driv-ing, and there were no injuries.

 Fire warning

On Aug. 24 about 9 p.m., Chase RCMP re-ceived a complaint of a bonfire on a beach in Magna Bay.

A group of youth was having a bonfire at the beach. 

The RCMP remind the public that fire bans continue to be in effect, and bonfires are pro-hibited (except for pro-pane-fueled certified campfire appliances).

Tube troubleOn Aug. 23, a pick-

Many men and women find physical activity unenjoyable, which may make it difficult for them to include exercise in their daily routines. The following are some approaches men and women living sedentary lifestyles can take to make physical activity more enjoyable.Find activities you like. Physical activity is not limited to working out in a gym. Many adults find gyms great and motivational places to get in shape, while others are bored by strength-training or intimidated by gyms. Finding a physical activity you enjoy increases the chances that you will make exercise a part of your daily routine. Yoga, walking

and cycling are just a few of the many physical activities that can help you live a less sedentary life.Get a workout buddy. Another way to make exercise more enjoy-able is to enlist a friend to workout with you. Friends can supply motivation on those days when you don’t feel like working out while also making workouts more en-joyable by sharing a few laughs as you lift weights, walk around the neighborhood or engage in whatever physical activity you do together.

Salmon Arm is ex-periencing a busy con-struction year. While the value of construc-tion is not as high as last year, we are seeing more single- and multi- family home construc-tion than we have for a few years.

In addition, you have most likely noticed a few larger construc-tion projects under-way, such as the sec-ond phase of Lakeside Manor and foundation work at the Smartcen-tre’s site for Winners, Dollarama and Tim Hortons stores.

As well, a number of buildings that were started last year are now either near or at completion.

Projects include the new CSRD and School District 83 office build-ings, the large apart-ment building on 4th Avenue and Andover Terrace located on the

corner of Lakeshore and 20th.

You may also have observed a number of paving and sidewalk projects this summer as we get ready for back to school. Yes, believe it or not, it is that time already.

Please use an extra measure of caution as children head back to school on September 8; they could be happily chatting with friends they have missed all summer and not be as careful as normal.

It was a great sum-mer with lots of hot dry days and I personally want to thank each and

every person who let their lawn go brown as part of your own water conservation initiative. When I heard from oth-er communities about their water usage issues I was extremely proud of Salmon Arm resi-dents.

Lastly, I am really looking forward to our Salmon Arm Fall Fair on September 11 to 13.

It is sure to be fun for all ages with a variety of exhibits, competi-tions, entertainment and the midway.

Best of all, it is a chance to meet your friends and neighbours and have one of those

wonderful 4-H ham-burgers. See you there!

-Nancy Cooper is mayor of Salmon Arm.

Locally-owned businesses often put a larger share of their revenue back into their communities. Small business owners may be more inclined to employ local residents, giving more people in the community solid employment. Business owners may reach out and support other neighborhood efforts, such as fundraising initiatives for charities and schools. By shopping at local stores, you have a hand in supporting these efforts as well.

Hard work and determination will pay off for Shea Weber in February when he suits up in the red and whites of Team Canada.

The 24-year-old Sicamous product was tagged last month to represent the nation in the 2010 Olympic Games. It’s a goal Weber had been working towards, and an opportu-nity he’s proud to be part of.

“The Olympics are a very special event, not only for hockey but for winter sports and to be able to play for your country and compete for a medal is kind of neat,” says Weber.

The 6’4”, 234 lb. Nashville Predators defenceman will be sporting the maple leaf with other big names in hockey like Scott

Niedermayer (Anaheim Ducks), Roberto Luongo (Vancouver Canucks), Chris Pronger (Philadelphia Flyers) and Sidney Crosby (Pittsburgh Pen-guins).

Apart from a camp held last summer, We-ber guesses the team may have a couple of days to gel in February before hitting the ice in Whistler, and he’s interest-ed in seeing how everyone fi ts. But Weber’s mom and dad, Tracy and James, don’t ex-pect Shea will have any problems.

“Whatever they want him to do, he’ll do it,” said James. “He’s a team-fi rst guy, he’s not a selfi sh player at all.”

Both parents share what could be described as a subdued excite-ment for their son and the hon-our that’s been bestowed up on him.

“Shea phoned home and said ‘I’ve been chosen

to play in the Olympics, and I said ‘okay,’” Tracy commented, explaining it’s kind of a family trait not to overreact – one that Shea

shares. But she and James who, with Shea,share roots in Sicamous minor hockey, are defi nitely excited, and are hoping to attendat least one of their son’s games.

Sicamous Eagles manager Wayne Marchis also pretty excited by the news that Shea, an Eagle alumni, will be playing forhis community and country at the Games.March says Shea has been totally focusedthroughout his career on what he wanted todo: make it to the NHL. In the process, Sheahelped the Eagles win the KIJHL West-ern Canadians in 2001-02; he helped takethe Kelowna Rockets to three consecutiveWHL Memorial Cup championship games,including the win in 2004; and, after signingwith Nashville in 2004, he helped the Ca-

“No one can set the price of oil. It’s up to Allah,” said Saudi Ara-bian Oil Minister Ali al-Naimi in May. But less devout people be-lieve that Saudi Arabia has been trying very hard to set the price of oil – and set it low. Moreover, it has been remarkably successful, because last week the price of oil was in the mid $40s per barrel, down from just over $100 last May. But Ri-yadh is not achieving its objective.

Saudi Arabia, like any oil producer, likes a high price for its oil, but since it is very rich and has huge reserves it thinks long-term. Watching American oil production almost dou-ble in the past seven years, mainly thanks to the rapid rise of frack-ing, the Saudis could see that they risked losing their role as the “swing producer” who can raise or lower the oil price just by cutting or increasing its own production.

The only way Saudi Arabia could keep that role was to drive the American frackers out of business. Produc-tion costs are secret in the oil world, but the Saudis assumed the in-jection of water, sand and chemicals into shale rock at high pres-sure makes hydraulic fracturing – fracking – very expensive.

So the Saudi strategy is to keep its own pro-duction high in order to push the oil price down. If the price stays low enough for long enough, high-cost pro-ducers like the frack-ers will have to close down. Then, once the competition had been eliminated, Saudi Ara-bia jacks the price back up by cutting its own

production, and the glory days return.

In the meantime Saudi Arabia is losing income too, of course, and oil revenues ac-count for 90 percent of the national budget. It can live on savings for a while, but it needs a fairly quick win.

It would be politi-cally unwise to cut the lavish government spending that keeps the Saudi population hap-py, and the government is also involved in an expensive war in Ye-men. The missing in-come has mostly been replaced by withdraw-als from the country’s huge foreign reserves, estimated a year ago at $700 billion – but those reserves have fallen by $65 billion in the past year.

The Saudis don’t want to run those re-serves down too far: without them, it could not afford to play the role of “swing pro-ducer,” and would lose most of its diplomatic clout. So last week, for the first time in eight years, Saudi Arabia started selling govern-ment bonds, planning to raise $27 billion by the end of the year. The strain is starting to show.

The strain of this at-tritional battle is also showing in the United

States, where vari-ous shale oil produc-ers have cancelled or postponed new drilling projects. But the shale producers have consol-idated into bigger com-panies and increased the efficiency of their production processes, and U.S. oil production is actually continuing to grow this year. It is now at about 90 per-cent of Saudi produc-tion.

The brutal fact is that the Saudis are losing this battle. When the U.S. was the biggest producer of oil, before about 1970, it was the swing producer. With-in a few years, it will have overtaken Saudi oil production and will be the swing producer again. And there is nothing Riyadh can do about it.

The Saudis made two mistakes. The first was to overestimate the cost of U.S. shale

oil production, and as-sume that any price below about $80 per barrel would make it unprofitable. There are some shale oil plays for which this is true, but the costs vary wild-ly, according to the lo-cal geology, and can be as low as $20 per barrel. Most shale oil is profitable at $60 per barrel, and that propor-tion is rising rapidly as consolidation proceeds and efficiency rises.

Their other, bigger mistake was to believe that victory was pos-sible at all. When you stop production from a conventional oil well, there is a large perma-nent loss of flow when you restart production. The pores in the oil-bearing rock clog up, and that permanently reduces the “bottom-hole” pressure that forces the oil to the surface.

Stopping production at a shale-oil site incurs no such loss, since the producers create the pressure themselves. Uncap it, and the flow resumes as before.

So even if the Saudis succeeded in forcing most of the shale-oil sites to close, the shale producers would just turn the flow on again as soon as Saudi Ara-bia declared victory and cut production to

get the price of oil back up.

It will take a little more time for the Sau-dis to acknowledge their mistake, and they may not even be able to get the price back up to where they need it by cutting production. American production will continue to rise, and Iranian oil will probably also be com-ing back on the market in a big way by next year.

The Saudis will stay rich, but they will have to cut their spending and they will suffer a permanent loss of influence. Their only consolation will be that Iran, which they see as their greatest enemy, won’t be able to use its oil to buy influence either.
