‘Negligible progress’ to protect farmlandJeFF NageLBlack Press

Little to no action has been taken in the year since B.C.’s auditor general red-flagged a se-ries of big holes in the Agricul-tural Land Commission’s ability to protect farmland.

Auditor General John Doyle’s original report in the fall of 2010 contained nine recommen-dations, some of them urging the ALC to fix inaccurate maps of Agricultural Land Reserve boundaries and tighten enforce-

ment against those who degrade farmland.

The commission’s budget has been cut 30 per cent since 2002 and the audit had found the agency is underfunded and un-derstaffed to carry out much of its duties.

But in a new follow-up report, Doyle sees inaction over the past year. Nothing has been done with five recommendations and the rest are only partly imple-mented.

“I am disappointed that the ALC has made negligible prog-

ress,” he said in the report. The ALC tabled a new stra-

tegic vision for the future last November but the proposed new directions are stalled in Victoria because the provincial govern-ment has yet to make any deci-sions.

On all nine of the original rec-ommendations, Doyle’s report says the ALC is “awaiting direc-tion from government.”

The commission is seeking in-creased funding for several ini-tiatives.

The future food-growing pro-

ductivity of the ALR continues to be damaged by illegal activity such as the dumping of construc-tion material and tainted fill on farmland.

Doyle previously found the ALC too often gives violators written or verbal warnings in-stead of issuing orders or fines because it can’t afford to defend tougher measures if they’re chal-lenged in court.

The Lower Mainland has lost eight per cent of its ALR land since the reserve was created in 1973.

Toshio Suzuki post-

poned a cancer treat-ment to be at the B.C. legislature Monday, to witness a formal apol-

ogy for the province’s role in the internment of Japanese Canadi-ans during the Second

World War.Suzuki was seven

years old in the spring of 1942 when he and

his family were or-dered off their 16-acre strawberry farm in Pitt Meadows and put on a train at Port Ham-mond. Along with his parents and two older siblings, he worked in the sugar beet fields of Manitoba until six years after the end of the conflict.

“The timing is per-fect today, because it is the 70th anniversary of the internment,” Su-zuki said as he joined other former internees at a reception at the legislature Monday.

“It’s also the 30th anniversary of when the constitution was repatriated back to Canada, which in-cludes the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Those two, for me, kind of tie it all to-gether.”

As with the assets other Japanese-Ca-nadians, the Suzuki family farm was sold off and the proceeds went toward the cost of internment camps in the Kootenays and elsewhere.

Advanced Educa-

tion Minister Naomi Yamamoto introduced a motion to apologize Monday, with unani-mous support.

Yamamoto told the legislature how her fa-ther was removed from high school in Vancou-ver and interned along with 21,000 Canadians of Japanese descent, 14,000 of whom were born in Canada.

Yamamoto said a B.C. government del-egation went to Otta-wa after Japan’s entry into the war, urging in-ternment of Japanese-Canadian men of mili-tary age and seizure of their fishing boats.

“The RCMP and senior officials with-in Canada’s military opposed these rec-ommendations and argued that Japanese-Canadians did not pose a threat to na-tional security,” Ya-mamoto said.

“In spite of this, the B.C. delegation insist-ed upon the removal of all Japanese Cana-dians from the Pacific coast and threatened non-cooperation if the

federal government did not heed their de-mands.”

Men were separated from their families and put on work crews for farming or building roads and railways. Women, children and seniors were sent to camps in the B.C.

Interior, including Greenwood, Sandon, New Denver and Slo-can in the Kootenays.

After the war ended, Japanese Canadians were offered a choice to settle east of the Rocky Mountains or be deported back to Japan.

The right to live on the West Coast and vote in Canadian elec-tions was restored to them in 1949.

In 1988 the federal government made a formal apology and provided a $300 mil-lion compensation package, including $21,000 for each of the 13,000 survivors, $12 million for a Jap-anese community fund and $24 million to set up the Canadian Race Relations Foundation.

prescription service”

The month of May is usually when allergies to pollen begin to be noticed. The beauties of spring often bring

misery to those with hay fever and similar allergies. It doesn’t have to be this way. It’s difficult to live life by avoiding the pollens that cause the allergies. However, there are many effective medications that can control your symptoms. Our pharmacists would be happy to advise you.

Alcohol does interact with many drugs but for antibiotics the interactions are few. Pharmacists will certainly inform you, when it’s important, with an auxiliary label on the prescription bottle and will reinforce it verbally at the counter. These labels give important information about your prescription and should be heeded.

It’s a good thing to include green leafy vegetables in our daily diet. One of these veggies that doesn’t get the attention it deserves is kale. It contains healthy amounts of antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids, fibre, potassium and vitamins A, C, E and K. If kale isn’t part of your diet, give it a try.

There are some very good medications available to reduce stomach acid and heartburn. If you find yourself without your medication and have bad heartburn, you may find relief from drinking a glass of water. The water will reduce the stomach acidity and bring temporary relief till you can take your medication.

It’s important to be an advocate for your own health. Be an active learner about all health matters including the drugs you take. We can help you with this information. Windsor

B.c. apologizes for Japanese internment

Perhaps it has some-thing to do with foxes.

After all, Denise Dela-ronde spent a few months short of working 20 years at the Grey Fox restau-rant at Williams Inn and now she’s managing the Fox’s Den restaurant at the Williams Lake Golf and Tennis Club.

“We opened at the be-ginning of the golf season and I’ve been here since mid-March preparing for the mid-April opening,” Delaronde says.

New this year is full-table service, daily drink,

lunch and dinner spe-cials, along with two-for-one appetizers night on Fridays.

Menu items include a variety of salads, burg-ers, sandwiches, steaks and fish and chips, and there’s now an apply platter, which was never been on the menu previ-ously.

The restaurant is open to the public — people don’t have to golf to go there and Delaronde says families are showing up to eat there often.

One of the things Dela-

ronde has really fallen in love with is the view from the restaurant.

“It overlooks the town of Williams Lake. It’s really beautiful up here at nighttime,” she says, adding newcomers to the restaurant also comment on the “gorgeous” view.

There’s a nice big pa-tio, she adds.

Having lived most of her life in Williams Lake, Delaronde left for a short time.

The golf course ap-proached her to come and run the Fox’s Den

and even customers at her previous place of em-ployment were pressur-ing her to take the job.

“I got together with the president and an ex-ecutive member, had an interview, and they hired me on the spot,” she says.

Very new to golfing, she admits she’s been out on the course once so far.

“It was a long journey for me. It’s 18 holes, but I enjoyed it and am look-ing forward to going again,” she chuckles.

Reservations are not required, unless it’s a large group because the staff likes to know ahead of time to prepare.

So far they’ve hosted an array of functions, in-cluding birthdays, anni-versaries and retirement parties, and have already received six bookings for Christmas parties.

In addition there are the scheduled men’s and ladies’ nights, juniors’ and seniors’ day, and tournaments taking place that brings in customers.

Open hours are 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday through Wednesday, and until 10 p.m. on Thurs-day and Friday.

Fox’s Den under new management

I was doing a little spring pruning on my fruit trees a

couple weeks back and things are looking hope-ful for our mystery tree. This could be the year I finally get some apples! Exactly what kind of apples remains to be seen.

Five years ago we bought three apple trees — a Norland, a Heyer 12 and a crab. It was Mother’s Day weekend and the nursery was a mad house. We eyed the crowds, considered the distance between us and the checkout counter in-side and came up with a brilliant idea. Instead of lugging three trees through the crowds and into the store we would set the trees by our near-by truck, remove the tags and take them to the counter instead.

Feeling beyond bril-liant we proceeded to the counter with our light load. It wasn’t until we were on our way home that we realized we no longer knew which tree was which. Two of the trees died over the first winter leaving us with one that could be a Nor-land, a Heyer 12 or a crab. We have since re-

placed the other two and added three more. All of which, I am happy to report, are alive and carefully named. Our miniature apple orchard now includes another Norland, a Honeycrisp, a Battleford, a Kirk, a Minnesota 447, a Thun-derchild crab and, of course, our Mystery Apple.

The Thunderchild (and perhaps our Mys-tery Apple) is the only one of the bunch with-out the potential for ap-ples sweet enough to eat off the tree. Thunder-child has gorgeous pink blooms in the spring but the fruit— like all crab apples — will be a bit sour and best used for making jelly. Even if it wasn’t beautiful I would have bought it anyway, just for its name. Thun-derchild! How poetic is

that? It certainly rolls off the tongue better than Heyer 12 or Min-nesota 447.

Speaking of apples and tongues, last year I discovered Ambrosia apples in the grocery store and it was love at first bite. The taste was so swoon worthy it moved me to do a search online in the hopes of being able to grow one of my own. Instead I stumbled on a story as incredible as the flavour itself.

Back in 1989 a rogue apple sapling sprung up in a newly planted row of Jonagolds in B.C.’s Similkameen Valley. It should have been grubbed out but for some reason was overlooked until it had reached such a size the orchard owners decided to leave it be. When it started to bear fruit in the early 1990s the pickers were drawn to the tree; the fruit was irresistible. Though the pickers sel-dom ate apples, this par-ticular tree became their favourite and was con-sistently stripped clean and consumed on the spot. The orchard own-ers were intrigued and tried propagating the

tree. To their delight the offspring produced the same delectable apples as the mother tree. They moved through the pro-cess to have it registered, naming it Ambrosia … food of the gods! It rip-ens in late September or early October and keeps for about six months, which sadly means that locally its season has now come to an end. Foodies out there will want to circle October on their calendars and write “Ambrosia apple harvest” in bright red ink — you won’t be dis-appointed!

In the meantime you could sample some im-ports — though local is better. Today Ambro-sia apples are grown in orchards not only in Canada but throughout North America, Europe,

Chile and New Zealand and available in gro-cery markets the world over. What an incred-ible thing! Hundreds of thousands of Ambrosia trees all stemming from a single tree that found its roots by chance right here in western Canada; a tree that appeared on its own as if by magic; a mystery tree that has become a legend in its own time.

Now that’s the kind of mystery tree to have. As for a mystery tree result-ing from a pair of idiots removing its label? Not so much.

Get active on Canada Health Day Margaret NgPacific Blue Cross

With Canada Health Day fast approaching (May 12), the Pacific Blue Cross is offering some tips on how to stay healthy and live an active life.

• Take a walk. Walk-ing is one of the sim-plest activities: take a walk after lunch or get off one bus stop early

on your way to work. • Make a play for it.

You might have flown a kite or thrown a Fris-bee as a kid — why not now? Once in the park, you might see other ac-tivities that inspire you and your family to have fun exercising.

• Start a family “health club.” Gather your family together one evening or week-end and make up a list

of activities that every-one enjoys.

• Support the sports. Most sports activities increase your physical fitness, contribute to heart and bone health, and help you maintain a healthy body weight — so why not join a new club or team?

• Just the basics. Sci-entific evidence suggests that even low-intensity lifestyle activities have

health benefits. Casual activities that can con-tribute to greater health include: gardening and yard work; housework; dancing; walking up stairs; water exercise; and having fun — find something active you enjoy and stick with it.

• Get virtually moti-vated. Take advantage of some of the mobile applications and online portals that provide

guidance and informa-tion on healthy living. My Good Health is a free resource for Pa-cific Blue Cross plan members that provides a personalized health report identifying indi-vidual health risks and assistance on making a positive change.

Margaret Ng is the program manager of health and wellness for the Pacific Blue Cross.

Law opens door to aboriginal developmentBy Tom FletcherBlack Press

The B.C. government has introduced legisla-tion to allow provincial laws to apply to two ma-jor developments on ab-original reserve land.

A liquefied natural gas project on a Haisla Nation reserve near Kitimat and a four-tower condominium commercial develop-ment on a Squamish Nation reserve in West Vancouver will be sub-ject to the B.C. building code and environmental regulations once federal and provincial laws are harmonized. Currently, reserve lands are sub-

ject only to federal laws under the Indian Act, which prohibits the sale of reserve lands.

B.C. Aboriginal Rela-tions Minister Mary Po-lak said the changes were sought by the Haisla and Squamish, because they create certainty for pri-vate investors to finance and build the projects.

“This is really a histor-ic opportunity to begin to regularize the types of developments that take place on reserve,” Polak said.

Kitimat LNG, a con-sortium led by gas pro-ducer Apache Corp., hopes to have the first of two proposed LNG pro-cessing lines completed

by 2016 on a vacant Haisla reserve at Bish Cove, a site on Douglas Channel. It is one of two proposals in the area to liquefy gas from north-eastern B.C. and load it on pressurized tanker ships for export.

Haisla Nation Chief Councillor Ellis Ross called the LNG proposal “a game-changer for the Haisla people,” adding that the federal and pro-vincial legislation will clarify regulation as well as investment certainty. The new law will allow the LNG project to be governed by B.C.’s Oil and Gas Commission along with the rest of the petroleum industry in

the province.Polak said the federal

legislation, and its pro-vincial counterpart, are needed for the Kitimat LNG investors to make their final financing de-cision this fall.

The Squamish Nation proposal is for 600 con-dominium units with re-tail space in four towers next to Park Royal shop-ping centre in West Van-couver. The legislation would not allow units to be sold, so they would be leased.

The legislation in-cludes a framework for the Squamish Nation to contribute to roads, wa-ter and other services needed for the develop-

ment, and to register the property with the pro-vincial land title system.

“We have been work-ing in partnership with local, provincial and federal governments on this initiative because we believe it will enable our lands to compete on a level playing field in the marketplace,” said Squamish Nation Chief Ian Campbell.

Polak said the legis-lation doesn’t solve all problems of land use on reserves. Currently aboriginal communi-ties can build or operate businesses on reserves without regard to pro-vincial environmental laws or local zoning.

The B.C. NDP has ramped up its op-position to the pro-

posed Northern Gateway oil pipeline.

First the party formal-ized objections already ex-pressed by NDP MLAs who have spoken at hearings held by the federal review panel along the B.C. coast. Leader Adrian Dix sent an 11-page letter to the panel, then launched an attack on the B.C. Liberal govern-ment in the legislature that emphasized the letter’s top objection.

Why doesn’t Premier Christy Clark stand up to Ottawa and protest the abandonment of the long-standing “moratorium and exclusion zone” on oil tank-ers off B.C.’s north coast, Dix and NDP energy critic Rob Fleming demanded.

Clark’s answer was the same one given for many years by federal and pro-vincial governments. The 1972 federal “moratorium” was directed at offshore oil drilling, not tankers bound for B.C. A separate Canada-U.S. agreement in 1998 calls for U.S. tank-ers to avoid B.C.’s Inside Passage as they transport Alaska crude oil to refiner-ies in Washington state and further south.

I asked Fleming for docu-mentation that shows tank-ers are banned from B.C.’s north coast. He said it is “fragmented,” which means he doesn’t have any. Nor does the NDP’s heavily

footnoted letter to the fed-eral panel offer any source for this assertion.

This argument flared up in 2006 after Methanex Corp. shut down its Kitimat meth-anol plant. Instead of ship-ping methanol out, a practice that was never questioned, it started bringing tankers into the Kitimat port loaded with a liquid natural gas by-product called condensate. From there it is sent by rail to Alberta to dilute oil sands crude. This process led to Enbridge’s proposed double pipeline that would send condensate east and diluted crude west.

The Dogwood Initiative, one of the multiple U.S.-funded groups that now dominate B.C.’s environ-mental lobby, rose to protest these early condensate ship-ments, saying they violate a moratorium on tankers. Wrong, said Don Rodden, superintendent of environ-mental response for the Ca-nadian Coast Guard Pacific Region. The 1972 moratori-um “wouldn’t apply to ves-

sels coming into Canadian ports like Kitimat,” Rodden told the Globe and Mail at the time.

The Coast Guard would be the agency legally re-quired to enforce such a tanker ban, if one existed.

As I’ve mentioned be-fore, there are legitimate ar-guments against the North-ern Gateway proposal. This hippy-fantasy tanker mora-torium isn’t one of them.

Then there is the hypoc-risy and pro-U.S. bias that is so clearly evident in the

manipulated B.C. debate.The Northern Gateway

pipeline would generate as many as 350 tanker trips each year to and from Kiti-mat. More than twice that many tankers already sail each year through the Strait of Juan de Fuca, past the Gulf and San Juan Islands.

Many are heading to re-finery complexes at March Point and Cherry Point in Washington. These super-tankers can be seen sailing past Victoria most days. Strangely, this U.S. crude

traffic excites no protests.Some of the smaller tank-

ers come in to fill up from the Trans-Mountain pipeline in Burnaby, whose operator is preparing a bid for expan-sion. This attracts protests organized by people paid to oppose Alberta “tar sands” oil.

Where do urban protest-ers think we get the gaso-line and diesel fuel sold at B.C. filling stations? Do they think it’s all made at the little Chevron refinery in Burnaby, the last rem-

nant of refining capacity in southern B.C.?

We could use a serious debate about how B.C. handles petroleum. Instead, we see factually inaccurate claims promoted by U.S. interests to attack Canadian crude only.

Our opposition politi-cians and media mostly just go along for the ride.

LeGion, siGht And sound buy tv For deni house

Pictured from the left are adult-day program participant Louise Holst, Sight and Sound employee Sean Ryll, Deni House resident Harley Hiebert, Legion first vice-president Jan Hermiston, Legion bar chair Bob Samchuck and Joel Gyselinck from Sight and Sound.

My sister played baseball on a work-place team some years ago and took my six-year-old son to her practice one evening.

He listened careful-ly and with great in-terest as she explained the basic rules in the game.

He told her he had seen baseball on TV and always watched the World Series with me.

He “knew all about it,” he told my sister, and watched carefully as the preparations for the game took place.

When the teams went out on the field, a very small voice on the hill started sing-ing.

Although this just was a fun-ball game, my son apparently took it very seriously and there he was on the hill alone, stand-ing at attention, sing-ing O Canada at the

top of his voice and holding the sharp Air Force salute he had been taught by my dad, a Second World War fighter pilot.

It was impossible for everyone on the field to resist that show of patriotism and all stood quietly and waited respect-fully until he finished singing before they threw a ball.

He had most of the words and most of the tune and he was deter-mined to do the right thing, as he saw it.

He sang the entire

tune and, as he fin-ished, the sun was slowly setting.

There was a moment when no one moved, as if waiting for that familiar “play ball” heard at the profes-sional games.

Everyone took one last look up the hill at my son and the game was on.

It was a lively game and, every so often, the players would smile up to my son and give him a wave.

He watched every-thing carefully, as if he was suddenly in

charge, and waved back to the players in a very business-like manner.

Afterwards, when my sister asked him about his singing, he explained with his typically forthright attitude, chest stuck way out

“Well, isn’t that how they always start base-ball games? I wonder why no one else was singing that song with me, like on TV?” Why, indeed?

TEAM OF THE WEEK

Sports can be great for a child. They can help develop a wide variety of skills that can be used for the rest of their lives. Playing soccer can teach social skills, making new friends, playing well with others, and listening to authority. Soccer teaches kids how to be active, how to stay healthy and gives them exercise that can be continued as they get older, keeping them healthy and in shape. The most important part of soccer is to have fun.

CORNER STORIESCOLLEEN CROSSLEY

Gaeil FarrarTribune Staff Writer

The Studio Theatre’s production of Crimes of the Heart was right in the zone Wednesday evening on a solid tract for some awards at the Central Interior Zone Drama Festival coming up in the lakecity May 24-27.

The actors were siz-zling in a performance super-charged with the kind of kinetic energy that gets audiences laughing and crying right along with them.

Three sisters and a critical cousin come together to deal with a series of compounding family crises in a dra-matic story with comi-cal overtones about how families deal with difficult situations, and not always connecting in predictable ways.

The set is an impec-cable translation of the 1970s era in which the play is set in an old Mis-sissippi family home.

And the southern ac-cents aren’t bad either – charming in fact.

There was almost a full house for the Wednesday evening

show and some tickets may still be left at About Face Photography or at the door for the play tonight, Friday, May 11, although Saturday night is usually sold out.

If you miss it this weekend there will be another chance to catch Crimes of the Heart

during Theatre B.C.’s 2012 Central Interior Zone Drama Festival which has been moved from its original venue in Prince George to the Williams Lake’s Studio Theatre.

The zone festival takes place at the Studio Theatre, May 24 to 27,

says member Michael Rawluk.

For the first time ever the 100 Mile House players are entering the festival. They are bring-ing their musical pro-duction A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum by Ste-phen Sondheim, Burt Shevelove, and Larry Gelbart.

The 100 Mile House performance is sched-uled for Thursday, May 24 starting at 8 p.m.

The Kersley players are bringing two plays to the festival that will be staged Friday, May 25 starting at 8 p.m.

Kersley playwright Roy Teed is bringing his play Blind Date and the club is bringing their production of the short comedy, The Wed-ding Story by Julianne Homokay.

The Williams Lake Studio Theatre Soci-ety is also entering two plays, Norm Foster’s Office Hours that was on stage at the Studio Theatre earlier this year, and Beth Henley’s Crimes of the Heart that wraps up its regular run tonight and tomorrow night.

Office Hours will be on stage at noon on Sat-urday, May 26. Crimes of the Heart will be on stage Saturday evening, May 26 at 8 p.m.

The adjudicator this year is Amy Baskin who will provide brief pub-lic adjudications after each performance and more in-depth critiques for the cast and crew of each entry the morning after their performanc-es, Rawluk says.

Sunday, May 27 the adjudicator will also provide a workshop for the entry chosen as best play that will go on to compete in the provin-cial festival this sum-mer.

Awards are presented during a gathering after

the set has been struck for the last performance on Saturday night, Raw-luk says.

“Tickets are being printed and should be at About Face tomorrow or Saturday,” Rawluk says.

“And we are always looking for extra bodies to help.”

PARSONS PENBY CAMERON JOHNSTON

Christians, Jews and many Moslems believe that God speaks to us in the Bible. How can we know if this is true or not? Is there a reliable way to know de�nitely that God actually speaks to us? Is there an objective way to test the validity of scripture with a reasonable degree of accuracy?

God wants us to come and reason with him. One way we do that is using what has been revealed in ful�lled Bible prophecy. All Biblical predictions, except the few that are still future, have all been ful�lled with 100% accuracy. Biblical prophecy is very different from the various predictions of the future that abound today, both inside and outside the church. Most forecasts are attempts to determine what will happen down the road. Biblical predictions do this in a general way but they can only be fully understood after the event actually happens.

The primary purpose of biblical prophecy is not providing precise details about what is to come but to provide speci�c evidence for belief once the event has occurred. Many believers, even theologians, miss this vital detail. As Jesus put it so clearly, “I am telling you this ahead of time so when it happens you might believe.” The ful�llment of Bible predictions is designed as positive evidence that we can trust the Bible as a word from God.

There are literally hundreds of

precise predictions in the Old Testament relating to the �rst coming of Jesus that have all been ful�lled exactly! It was predicted 2000 years in advance, that the messiah would be a direct descendent of Abraham through the tribe of Judah. Later this was narrowed down to the family of King David and that he would be born in Bethlehem.

Many speci�c predictions of Jesus suffering and death were given by the prophet Isaiah hundreds of years before the actual events recorded in the New Testament. The precise prediction that is most impressive for me is a prophecy of Daniel made �ve hundred years before which details the exact year of his baptism in the fall of AD 27 and then his rejection and death three and a half years later at a Jewish Passover in the spring of

31 AD. These dates and events can be historically veri�ed and provide impressive evidence of something supernatural.

A second powerful Bible prophecy revealing the divine nature of scripture is the amazing detailed outline of political history from the time of the prophet Daniel and up to this very day. Beginning during the Babylonians, 2500 hundred years ago, Daniel chapter two takes us through four powerful empires, Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and Rome and down to today. We are literally living at the very end of this prophecy which ends with the second coming of Jesus. For some excellent online Bible study guides visit: www.vop.com.

Be aware of those who will attempt to give you speci�c times and events leading up to the end of the world. What we need to know is that God and his word can be trusted, that God exists and cares about what happens on this earth and at the right time he will come and bring deliverance.

Ful�lled Bible prophecy gives positive objective evidence that God’s word can be trusted. If you know the peace and joy of God then relax and enjoy your God. If you do not know this peace then I challenge you to study the word of God and you will �nd a loving and caring friend that will help you with all the challenges of life.

Three Steps to Emergency Preparedness

IS YOUR FAMILYPREPARED?

If an emergency happens in your community, it may take emergency workers some time to get to you. You should be prepared to take care of yourself and your family for a minimum of 72 hours. By taking a few simple steps today, you can become better prepared to face a range of emergencies - anytime, anywhere.

GetPrepared.ca • 1-800-O-Canada

#1 KNOW THE RISKSAlthough the consequences of various disasters can be similar, knowing the risks in your region can help you better prepare. Across Canada, we face a number of hazards, such as earth-quakes in B.C., blizzards in Nunavut and tornadoes in Ontario. In addition to natural disasters, there are other types of risks, such as power outages and industrial or transportation accidents.

#2 MAKE A PLAN

Every Canadian household needs an emergency plan. It will help you and your family know what to do in case of an emergency. Your family may not be together when an emergency occurs. Plan how to meet or how to contact one another, and discuss what you would do in different situations.

#3 GET AN EMERGENCY KITIn an emergency you will need some basic supplies. You may need to get by without power or tap water. Be prepared to be self-sufficient for at least 72 hours. Make sure your kit is easy to carry and everyone in the household knows where it is. Keep it in a backpack, duffle bag or suitcase with wheels, in an easy-to-reach, accessible place, such as your front-hall closet.

Saturday isrecycling day

For the third year in a row Canadian Tire in Williams Lake is team-ing up with different recycling stewards to accept a plethora of goods during an all-day recycling event on May 12.

Billed as Reduce Your Footprint, store manager and organizer Brian Stefan says stew-ards will be accepting tires, electronics, and small appliances.

Canadian Tire nor-mally accepts a long list of items for re-cycling — including glass, oil, batteries, and florescent bulbs — so those bins will also be waiting and ready.

Glass goes across the road to United Concrete where it is recycled.

The event runs from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Salvation Army

fundraiser

During May people can support the Salva-

tion Army by making a donation at Dockside Haircuts for a gift bas-ket of Goldwell Prod-ucts.

All proceeds from the donations will go to the Salvation Army. Dockside Haircuts is located at 147C First Ave. North.

Duct tape fun forteens

Duct tape can be used for just about anything, including arts and crafts.

On Tuesday, May 22 teenagers between the ages of 13 and 18 can go to the Williams Lake library to learn how to make their own duct-tape rose and belt.

The event, presented by the WIlliams Lake library and the Youth Advisory Council, is free and runs from 4 to 6 p.m.

The event is spon-sored by the Williams Lake & District Credit Union.

Talk with nurse pracitionerWhat duties can a

nurse practitioner per-form?

Come to the Seniors’ Advisory Council regu-

lar meeting at the Wil-liams Lake library meet-ing room at 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday, May 16. Bring your questions

for nurse practitioner Sandy LaChapelle to answer.

Members and visitors are welcome.

GOOD POSTURE HELPS REDUCE BACK PAINCorrect posture is a simple but very important way to

keep the many intricate structures in the back and spine healthy. It is much more than cosmetic—good posture and back support are critical to reducing the incidence and levels of back pain and neck pain. Back support is especially important for patients who spend many hours sitting in an office chair or standing throughout the day.Problems Caused by Poor Back Support and Pos-

ture Not maintaining good posture and adequate back support can add strain to muscles and put stress on the spine. Over time, the stress of poor posture can change the anatomical characteristics of the spine, leading to

the possibility of constricted blood vessels and nerves, as well as problems with muscles, discs and joints. All of these can be major contributors to back and neck pain, as well as headaches, fatigue, and possibly even concerns with major organs and breathing.Ergonomic Office Chairs for Back Support Office

work often results in poor posture and strain to the lower back. Many people work sitting in an office chair that is not properly fitted to their body and does not provide enough lower back support. One strategy is to choose an ergonomic office chair that often provides better support than a regular chair and may be more comfortable for the patient.

DEALING WITH TINNITUSTinnitus is a very common symptom suffered to some

extent by 70-85% of people with hearing impairment.For most it is more of an “irritant” than a major

problem. Tinnitus can be perceived as many different sounds, such as humming, ringing or buzzing, and it can be constant or periodic and vary in loudness.There can be many causes of tinnitus. Often the reason

is unknown. Frequently it is noise induced, is related to medical disorders such as ear infections or Ménière’s disease, or may be caused by use of certain drugs.Regardless of the cause, there is a very high correla-

tion between the presence of hearing loss and tinni-tus.This correlation is probably related to the well-estab-

lished principle that a peripheral disorder (such as a cochlear hearing loss) produces an increase in brain ac-tivity. In other words, the brain tries to compensate for

the lack of stimulation from the inner ear.Often, negative emotion is attached to the tinnitus,

and increased attention is paid to it –making it difficult for the patient to cope. It is consequently important to talk to patients about their thoughts and concerns. Tinnitus is often more difficult to deal with when

there is uncertainty or fear involved.Once medical evaluation has ruled out a treatable or

serious disorder, education and reassurance can be ex-tremely valuable and may be sufficient for some peo-ple.Fortunately the brain has the capacity to learn to ig-

nore stimuli that are not essential for wellbeing.Hearing aids can be used to provide sound stimula-

tion in several ways. They provide an excellent ampli-fied sound, which for some hearing aid users is enough to reduce tinnitus annoyance to an acceptable level.

Health Awareness


The Canadian Mental Health Association will once again underline Mental Health Week. This illness has a direct or indirect impact on most Canadians, either through family members, friends or colleagues and this is a perfect opportunity to learn more about the importance of mental health and how to achieve it in our daily lives.

Mental illness shows no discrimination as it affects people of all ages, educational back-grounds, income levels, and cultures. Over the

course of their lifetime, 20% of Canadians will experience a mental illness; figures show that in 1999 the cost to our health care system was at least $7.9 billion - $4.7 billion of which was spent in care and $3.2 billion in disability and early death. In addition, $6.3 billion was spent on unin-sured mental health services and time taken off work due to depression and distress that was not treated by the health care system.

The Canadian Mental Health Association’s Web

site (www.cmha.ca), provides a whole array of valuable information, from tips on balancing work and life, to coping with unemployment, and stress. There is also a support centre which offers advice for people living with a mental illness and infor-mation on identifying a potential problem, where to seek help as well as coping strategies for par-ents, siblings and other family members. The site also provides links to specialized services, support groups, health care providers and other helpful resources.

MENTAL ILLNESS SHOWS NO DISCRIMINATION

Mental Health Week May 7 - 13, 2012

Here are the common types of nurses and the type of educa-tion required to become a nurse.

* Nursing aide/orderly: Nursing aides and orderlies help nurses care for patients and perform routine tasks. They spend most of their time with patients, serv-ing meals, keeping patients comfortable, answering call lights, making beds, and giving baths. Most nursing aides work in a hospital setting or long-term facilities for the elderly.

* Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN): An LPN studies for a year after earning a high school diploma. LPNs typically record medical histories, weigh and measure patients, record symp-toms, and administer injections.

* Registered Nurse (RN): An RN typically pursues a two-year Associate’s degree in nursing or may receive a Bachelor’s degree

in the field. RNs must pass a national exam before they are licensed. The duties of an RN are generally more varied and in-depth than those of an LPN and can include helping patients manage treatment plans.

* Nurse practitioner (NP): Nurse practitioners are among the most educated hospital employ-ees. In addition to their RN study, they earn a Master’s degree and may specialize in one area. Also, NPs may be able to work outside of the authority of a physician. In such instances, an NP can run a medical practice, diagnose and prescribe medication just as a doctor would.

Although doctors are often thought of as the primary care providers in most healthcare set-tings, nurses are growing in numbers and have taken on many of the roles once reserved exclusively for doctors.

Nursing Week May 7-13, 2012

Enter a hospital, doctor’s office, adult care facility or medical clinic and you are bound to encounter nurses. Nurse is

a broad term used to describe most indi-viduals who perform patient-based care in a variety of settings. A nurse’s duties

and title will vary depending on his or her educational background and the certifica-tions and licenses he or she has received.

Just in time for Mother’s Day

Perennial of the yearJean AtkinsonRichbar Golf & Gardens

Perennial of the Year for 2012 is Brun-nera macrophylla ‘Jack Frost’. The winning plant must fill the crite-ria set out by the Peren-nial Plant Association.

First, it must suitably grow in a wide range of climatic conditions. Lucky for us Brunnera ‘Jack Frost will grow in zone 3. It does well in partial to full shade, preferring a moist soil .Add some organic mat-ter such as compost or peat moss to your soil at planting time. Top dressing with a couple of inches of bark mulch or old leaves to retain moisture around the plant. Once established, Brunnera is drought tol-erant. Plants with silver foliage are tough and thrive in drought, heat and cold.

The Perennial of the Year must be relatively pest and disease resis-tant. Neither slugs nor deer seem to be attract-ed to Brunnera. Appar-ently the deer don’t like the rough leaf texture. Just remove any tattered leaves and old flower stems throughout the growing season. They aren’t invasive and can be easily divided every 3 years in the spring.

The winner must also possess multiple seasons of ornamental interest and be readily available to gardeners. I’m going to be totally honest here and admit that I’m not the biggest fan of silvery spotted fo-liage. It reminds me of a virus riddled mutant plant! I’m sorry if I have offended any of you, but really, Pulmalaria? I rest my case. But I do like ‘Jack Frost’.

The heart shaped leaves are more silver

than green. Sprays of delicate forget-me-not blue flowers appear in spring and seem to hang around for long time. The big bright foliage brightens up any shady spot from spring to fall. Use this plant in the front of the shady bor-der or in a container. It grows in a tidy mound 45cm x 45cm.

It can be easily com-bined with other shade loving plants. The colour silver, links green and white in the garden creating a cool palette. For a simple and calm-ing planting combi-nation, use the green ruffled foliage of Hosta sieboldiana ‘Elegans’ in the background, ‘Jack Frost’ in the middle and

white impatiens in front. Too subdued for you? Instead of the white im-patiens, use hot pink or a mix.

In a container, plant ‘Jack Frost’ alongside the new white ‘Baby Wings’ begonia which is also heat tolerant and can grow in either sun or shade. I’m a huge fan of the pink Baby Wings be-gonia. It has to be one of the best annual perform-ers out there, so nice to have another colour.

The Hosta of the Year is ‘Liberty’. I will try to squeeze this one into my garden. The thick dark green leaves are edged with a beautiful wide golden yellow border. The 100cm semi-up-right clump makes quite a statement in the land-scape. It is a sport of ‘Sagae’ and if it is like its parent plant it will be a winner. Thanks go out to Joan Murphy for put-ting me onto ‘Sagae’.

Basil is deliciousJean AtkinsonRichbar Golf & Gardens

Herbs are definitely increasing in popular-ity and probably one of the all-time favorites to grow is basil. This year we have a couple of new varieties to help fill the demand. The first is called ‘Pesto Perpetuo’, a Genovese type. Not only does it make delicious pesto but it looks beautiful. The green and white variegated leaves are very striking. It looks great in a pot, in the garden or as a garnish on your plate.

It grows in a com-pact columnar shape up to 125cm tall, that’s impressive! Pesto Per-petuo doesn’t produce flowers so all its en-ergy goes into making leaves. Basil is an an-nual and likes lots of sun and warmth. Grow basil in a pot inside,

on a sunny window sill until the risk of frost has passed. To extend its life bring it back inside before the first frost and enjoy it a lit-tle bit longer.

Wild Red Basil is

also very ornamental in both the garden and your salad. The leaves are deep green and red with contrasting dark pink blooms. This grows to a height of 35 cm. Remember to

prune your basil sev-eral times throughout the season to encour-age new growth. Pinch out the flowers, other-wise they will form seed heads and slow the vegetative growth down.

We will be grow-ing these two types of basils in a new fibre pot. This ‘green’ pot can be directly plant-ed into the soil, thus reducing transplant shock and reducing the landfill of plastic.

Basil is delicious in sauces and salads. A classic use for basil is pesto. Freezing is the best way to save your basil for later, like when it’s thirty below and you crave a little bit of summer! Simply grind the basil leaves with a little olive oil and freeze ‘dollops’ of it on a cookie sheet. Put into bags once fro-zen and take it out as needed.

Planning your gar-den, adding to, or wanting to re-do an area?

Why not consid-er planting an easy maintenance garden area where little wa-tering and weeding are needed?

With the frequent spells of hot and dry summer days, it may be time to reconsider the ‘large lawn’ and try something new.

A xeriscape garden will allow you more time to enjoy your garden, and takes less time and money to maintain.

In a xeriscape land-scape, plants that are native to our drier area and need less water are a good choice.

Native trees and shrubs also offer the local wildlife a familiar and varied habitat.

There are many ground covers, an-nuals, perennials, shrubs and trees that do well in dry cli-mates. Visit your lo-cal garden centre for more details on spe-cific plants, or email [email protected].

When planning your garden, consider grouping plants that need more water in one area, preferably on the north or east side of your house or slope in your garden.

For the very hot dry areas of your garden consider succulents. Succulents prefer a lean (no compost) well-aerated, gritty soil with good drain-age.

After they are es-tablished (within two years), you need only water these plants during prolonged draught.

If you currently

have a large lawn, think of reducing it to a size that meets your requirements and try to avoid nar-row strips.

When planning a lawn, bluegrass lawns can go dor-mant (brown off) for several months dur-ing warm spells with little or no long-term damage.

A good alternative to a lawn is planting ornamental drought hardy grasses and ground covers.

The ideal soil for water conserving landscapes, achieved by keeping your soil well aerated and in-creasing the organic material, is one that drains well and stores water.

Once your xeri-scape landscape is set up, water only in extended periods of drought.

Over watering will contribute to rapid growing, weak plants, and leach-ing out the goodness from the soil which predisposes your gar-den to insect/disease problems.

Frequent, shallow watering, destroys deep roots of lawns and garden plants, leaving only shallow surface roots which are susceptible to draught.

Lawns in our area do well with a once a week deep watering (30 minutes is usu-ally enough) or a ½” of rain every two or three days.

You can tell when your grass needs wa-tering – when walked on it should spring back, if not, it is time to water. Letting your lawn grow lon-ger (3”) also helps as taller grass keeps the soil cool, and slows growth down which means less cutting.

Watering trees de-pends first on the type – is it a drought hardy Douglas Fir, Mountain Ash, Weeping Carrigana or Sumac?

These trees require water only in ex-treme drought; you need only look at the forests they are thriv-ing in.

With trees that need more water, be sure to mulch the ground around them but do not cover any visible roots or the trunk.

A rule of thumb for

watering your garden trees that do need moderate watering is 10 gallons of wa-ter for each diameter inch of tree trunk… once a week for small trees, once ev-ery ten days for me-dium trees, and once every two weeks for large trees.

This would mean

for a tree with 2” di-ameter water for 10 minutes with a soaker hose, or 10 minutes with a small sprinkler set at its base.

Realize that the less lawn and areas to cut, weed and wa-ter means more time for you to enjoy your garden!

60% of clean drinking water in North America is used on lawns and gardens. Consider a rain barrel for your outdoor watering. Rain barrel water is better

for your plants, and saves water from leaving our watersheds.

This Summer, resolve to reduce water use at home & in the garden

Did you know? A centimetre of rain falling on an 1100 square foot roof area will produce about 1,145 litres of water. With 4 gutter outfl ows on each roof,

one rain barrel can collect approximately 258 L from one centimetre of rain.

That’s a lot of Water!

In Loving Memory

As children, we can’t comprehend or fully realize the meaning of a Mother’s love, how tender and how

wise, the patience and forgiveness that are part of

every day.

The unexpected “little things” she does in her own

way. Years go by before we can look back on life and see,

through older eyes and wiser hearts her love and loyalty. And yet it’s these and other special

things we’ll hold so dear. For memories of her steadfast love will keep her ever near.

With the greatest of love and respect Mother,Patricia, Leckie, Jim, Forrest, George, Robin, Elke

and our families.

The 150 Mile House Fire Department and the McFaddin family invite you to join us for a remembrance service for Lorne McFaddin on May 12, 2012 at 2 pm at the 150 Mile Fire Hall.

In lieu of owers it was Lorne’s wish to have dona ons go to the 150 Mile Volunteer Fire Department.

Art i s t / ins t ruc tors Dwayne Davis and Ivanna Ko have been hired by the Station House Gallery to teach the gallery’s after-school art classes dur-ing May and June, says gallery manager Diane Toop.

Children taking the classes will be encour-aged in a structured manner to explore their imaginations.

After-school art classes will break for the summer.

Toop says artist Kath-ryn Steen will return to teach children’s art classes during July and possibly offer classes in August.

In other gallery news the Cariboo Piecemak-ers Quilting Club has also donated a king-sized quilt as a raffle piece to raise funds for the gallery.

Raffle ticket purchas-ers must be 19 years and older.

The deadline is also fast approaching on May 31 for artists to submit their proposals for participation in the summer show at the Station House Gallery.

The gallery has issued an open call for sub-missions for art work inspired by the Potato House project.

Accepted submis-sions will be on exhibi-tion at the Station House Gallery July 6 to Sept. 1 with an opening recep-tion on Thursday, July 5 from 5 to 7 p.m.

Artist entry forms are available at Dandelion Living at 271 Oliver St. and must be submitted to Dandelion Living by 5 p.m. May 31.

The Potato House at 49 Borland St. was once owned by local gardeners and avid po-tato farmers Alcina and Manuel Quintela.

Through their in-spiring past, the Po-tato House Sustainable Community Society or Potato House Proj-ect was formed in late 2009.

The goal of the proj-ect is to promote and carry out programs that inspire personal and community self-suffi-ciency through a high profile drop-in centre and garden space for

the educational benefit of citizens.

For more information on the Potato House

Project visit www.pota-tohouseproject.com or e-mail [email protected].

The deadline is also coming up Aug. 31 for artists — individuals or groups — to submit pro-

posals for the monthly shows taking place dur-ing the 2013 exhibition year.

For more information on this process visit the gallery or go to http://www.stationhousegal-

lery.com/?page_id=338 or e-mail Beth at [email protected].


54 or older as of March 31, 2012 You may still obtain OAS/GIS at age 65

The age of eligibility for OAS/GIS will change gradually between 2023 and 2029

Starting in July 2013, Canadians who are eligible for, but not yet receiving OAS will have the flexibility to delay receiving it in exchange for a higher monthly amount at a later date.

53 or younger as of March 31, 2012

What does this mean for you?

*Subject to parliamentary approval

The number of working-age Canadians per senior is decreasing, placing additional pressure on the OAS program.

The number of working-age Canadians for every senior is decreasing**

Canadians are living longer and costs for the Old Age Security (OAS) are rising.

On April 1, 2023 the Government of Canada plans to start raising the age of eligibility for OAS and the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) from 65 to 67.*
