A new flower shop has opened on Wallace Street in time for one of the busiest holidays of the year – Valen-tine’s Day.
Carli Spielman recently moved to Hope with her two children, Frankie and Charlie, to pursue a business opportunity that combines two of her passions: plants and natural crafting. After spending a decade living in Vancouver, she was ready to return to her roots in the Fraser Valley, where she has lots of family and friends.
“Hope has always been some-
where I’ve really had my heart set on as a place for my kids to grow up,” said Spielman. “I definitely wanted my kids outdoors and living in a mountain town, more than I wanted them in a city.”
The young entrepreneur opened Wild Rabbit Flowers + Handmade on Feb. 1, a shop that boasts shab-by chic decor and environmentally friendly products. Spielman offers a wide variety of flowers for all oc-casions, with a focus on fresh hand tied bouquets.
“My mandate with this shop is to think as locally and sustainably as possible, especially when it comes
to cut flowers,” she said. “Rarely do I bring in anything that is import-ed. I’m always looking for closer alternatives and finding a greener alternative. Having a product that is thoughtful to the environment doesn’t mean you should be pay-ing tons out of your pocket for it. You should get value in your smart choices.”
Spielman’s goal is to have her shop not only be a creative outlet for her-self, but for others as well. She plans on hosting monthly workshops on seasonal topics. The first one in April will be about mason bees, learning how to care for them and creatinh
your own mason bee house. “I’ve always been someone who
has used plants for many differentthings and everything I do is hand-made. So I really wanted to bringthat into some kind of retail out-let,” said Spielman. “You’re able to reuse and repurpose materials that you might already have in your ownbackyard or in your home, and cre-ate something that is good for theearth.”
So far, Spielman has been taken aback by the amount of communitysupport for Wild Rabbit Flowers + Handmade.

Families enjoyed a guided snowshoe trip across Strawberry Flats during Family Day celebrations in Manning Park on Monday. Hosted by the Hope Mountain Centre and Manning Park Resort, the event offered people of all ages a chance to play in the snow. Activities included snow cave building, a scavenger hunt, obstacle course, snow art, and ice cream making, with hot chocolate and prizes as well.

Chamber supports recycling changes Th e Hope & District Cham-
ber of Commerce applauds the B.C. government for amending a recycling regulation that was causing substantial concern among businesses.
“Th is is a huge relief to our local business community,” said Kathleen Alexis, president of the Hope & District Chamber of Commerce. “Th is change ex-empts the majority of our local businesses, including all of our mom and pop shops, from new costs and red tape.”
Th e regulation targets pack-aging and printed paper (PPP) and is slated to go into force in May.
Th e B.C. government has an-nounced that it will enshrine in regulation an exemption for any B.C. business that meets any of the following criteria: annual revenues of less than $1 million, less than one tonne of packag-
ing and printed paper produced annually and/or a single point of retail sale (and not supplied by or operated as part of a fran-chise, chain or under a banner). Th at means that less than 3,000 businesses in the province will be captured by the regulation, out of more than 385,000.
Alexis noted that the Hope & District Chamber of Commerce supports the principle of ex-tended producer responsibility (EPR), which aligns with B.C. business values, but cautioned that EPR programs need to be implemented carefully to avoid unintended consequences.
“Th is exemption correctly balances environmental goals with business needs,” Alexis said
Th e Hope & District Cham-ber of Commerce raised the alarm about the regulation last summer aft er businesses across the province were contacted
about coming new obligations and fees by Multi Material BC (MMBC), the agency charged with producing a stewardship plan under the regulation.
“It became clear that this reg-ulation would have unintended fallout for businesses, and par-ticularly small businesses, across B.C.,” said Alexis. “As a Chamber network, we knew we needed to roll up our sleeves, get to work and fi x this.”
Backed by local Chambers, the B.C. Chamber of Commerce worked extensively with the B.C. government and MMBC to hammer out a way forward that avoided a “one-size-fi ts-all” ap-proach.
“Th e announcement is the fruit of those labours: A re-tooled regulation that achieves B.C.’s environmental goals, while protecting the vast major-ity of B.C. businesses from new
costs and red tape,” said John Winter, president and CEO of the B.C. Chamber.
Winter commended the B.C. government for actively listen-ing to, and responding to, busi-nesses’ needs.
“Th is exemption is a testa-ment to a responsive govern-ment that’s serious about its commitment to businesses and to cutting red tape,” Winter said.
Winter also commended lo-cal Chambers throughout B.C. for helping drive the solution.
“Our partnership with local Chambers, such as the Hope & District Chamber of Commerce, has been crucial to achieving this victory,” said Winter.
Th e B.C. Chamber and its network of local Chambers will carefully monitor the imple-mentation of this regulation, to ensure that any further issues are quickly identifi ed.

A 43-year-old Kamloops woman has died in hospital fol-lowing a single vehicle crash Monday aft ernoon on Highway 1 near the Peters Road inter-change.
According to police, the woman’s 42-year-old husband was driving a 2007 Toyota mini-van eastbound at about 3:30 p.m. when he lost control in the slush when attempting to pass another vehicle. Th e minivan left the road and came to rest on it’s side
partially submerged in a slough.Th e driver and his two boys,
aged 11 and eight, were able to escape from the vehicle. How-ever, the woman was submerged and lost consciousness, and had to be cut out of her seatbelt and removed from the vehicle.
Emergency personnel and passing motorists attempted to resuscitate her and restored a pulse. Th e woman was trans-ported to Chilliwack Hospital and then transferred to Royal
Columbian Hospital, where she succumbed to her injuries.
Police say weather and road conditions were contributing factors in the crash, however, speed, vehicle mechanics and driver error have not been ruled out.
Sgt. Peter Th iessen of the Low-er Mainland District RCMP said Fraser Valley Traffi c Services re-sponded to three serious crashes resulting in three deaths and se-rious injury to several others be-
tween 12:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. on Monday.
“Th e public is reminded to adjust there driving as dictat-ed in accordance with the road, weather and traffi c conditions,” he added.
Th e crash remains under investigation by Fraser Valley Traffi c Services. Anyone who witnessed the collision and has not yet spoken to police is asked to contact Const. Blair Fuller at 604-702-4039.
A single vehicle crash in Deroche Monday af-ternoon has claimed the lives of a 56-year-old man from Lake Errock and a 73-year-old man from Yale.
Th e collision hap-pened around 1:30 p.m. in Deroche on the Lougheed Highway,
about one kilometre east of Brooks Road.
According to po-lice investigators, the 56-year-old driver ap-peared to have lost con-trol of the 1998 Ford Es-cort as he was heading westbound. Th e vehicle started to rotate clock-wise before leaving the
road and crashed into the ditch on the north side. Th e car came to a rest at the bottom of the steep embankment.
Police say weather and road conditions ap-pear to be factors in the incident, but have also not ruled out speed, vehicle mechanics and
driver distraction as causes.
Th e driver and his passenger were treated at the scene by emergen-cy personnel, but both succumbed to their in-juries. Th e names of the deceased are not being released until approval is given by their imme-
diate families.Fraser Valley Traffi c
Services and the coro-ner’s offi ce continue to investigate the crash. Anyone who witnessed the crash and has not yet spoken to police is asked to contact Const. Jared Schell at 604-702-4039.

Chilliwack approves waste recycling facility
Jennifer Feinberg Black Press
Chilliwack city council is defend-ing its unanimous approval last week of a controversial waste recy-cling facility near the Fraser River.
As threats of legal action swirled, Mayor Sharon Gaetz said those op-posed to the facility are simply mis-informed. Council approved fourth and fi nal reading last Tuesday of a rezoning proposal for a waste re-cycling and transfer facility at 7582 Cannor Road.
Critics said they value the recy-cling work the Ontario-based ap-plicant Aevitas is known for, but not the proposed location in the heavy industrial Cattermole lands.
Th e threat of legal action sprang up last week about details around the city’s hearing notice from a co-alition of groups opposed, who say they are also worried that an acci-dental spill could impact the Fraser River.
Unfortunately there is a clear lack of understanding about the City of Chilliwack rezoning process and the actual safeguards proposed for the site, said Mayor Sharon Gaetz.
“I get that some would not fully understand our process,” she said. “But what has been frustrating and unwelcome is the desire to twist in-formation around. We on council all want a safe community, and we all want to make sure we look aft er the environment.”
Strict rules guide council when conducting a rezoning hearing. Th at’s what kept them from answer-ing questions following the Dec. 3 hearing, certainly not a Machiavel-lian desire to push something un-popular through city hall quickly, she emphasized.
“If we’ve been silent on this, it was because we had to be silent under the legislation,” she told Black Press last Wednesday. “We never tried to circumvent any questions.”
Council had to be careful not to take in any new information be-tween the third and fourth read-ings. But in the wake of the coalition clamouring for answers about why the riverside location on Cannor Road was chosen, Mayor Gaetz is trying to clear the air with facts. It’s only now that she can speak public-ly. Th e only window for public in-put was the public rezoning hearing on Dec. 3, she underlined. Coun-cil acts in a quasi-judicial capacity during these hearings. To off er the public additional time or consider-ations would not be fair. Th ey have to conduct hearings, and the notifi -cation for them, the same way each and every time, said Gaetz.
Aevitas is gearing up to build a state-of-the-art recycling operation employing 40 to 50 people, not a toxic dump of any kind, she said, as some have erroneously suggested. With myriad and multi-layered environmental safeguards in place, council felt confi dent about its con-troversial decision. Engineering staff made it clear to council that the
distance of the facility from the riv-er, which is about 150 metres, is in fact a suffi cient distance from which to operate this recycling plant safely. Th e location was chosen by the ap-plicant, but city offi cials hold the view that is acceptable and expect Aevitas to be able to operate safely.
“Given the interconnectedness of all major waterways in Fraser River watersheds, no other location in Chilliwack, or throughout the Low-er Mainland for that matter, would be inherently safer than this one for the facility,” she said.
In other words whether the fa-cility site was 150 metres from the river, or 1500 me-tres, there would be similar vulner-ability in the event of a major disaster, either catastrophic fl ood or earth-quake.
As a high-hazard facility it would have to be built to withstand earth-quakes, even the “big one” threaten-ing the West Coast. Storm water fl ows would not go directly into the river, but into a ditch and then staff could close a valve at the pump station, re-sponding if necessary.
Critics who took issue with the M6 special industrial zoning desig-nation, according to Mayor Gaetz, are not aware that it not only further restricts the use at the site, but also gives the city authority for more en-forcement and monitoring.
Containment specifi cations found within provincial regulations and standards would have to be met, and Aevitas, has pledged sev-eral safeguards that the opposition has seemed to be ignoring. Th ere are plans to install a clay liner, as well as secondary containment abil-ity. Storage areas will be covered, and storm water goes into a con-tainment well that’s valved off .
“What people don’t seem to understand is that this recycling facility takes things that are lying around in people’s backyards and basements, and safely recycles these materials.”
Th e proposal by Aevitas would see transformer oils re-used and re-cycled, as well as mercury removed from light bulbs and lamps.
“If we had a fl ood or other disas-ter where do you think this stuff , which is laying around at home, would go with out this recycling plant? It would get into the river.”
Th e proposed location within Cattermole Estates on Cannor Road, already saw heavy industrial use through the years, with adjacent parcels also compatible with heavy industry and special industrial uses.
Th e remote location just off the highway also makes it perfect for transportation reasons, as trucks can access the site without having to go through residential or busy
industrial areas. So the proposedM6 special industrial zoning, alongwith a restrictive covenant with itsconditions was viewed as the “mostappropriate zone” for this facility.
“So from my perspective asmayor, when council votes unani-mously as it has done here, it meanswe are completely convinced thatstaff has done the work to keep usall safe, and council has done itshomework.”
Th e application has drawn fi erceopposition from the critics who saythe facility’s location poses a realthreat to the nearby Fraser River.It has even drawn a letter from a
B.C. Liberal MLA,as well as a visit bythe B.C. NDP en-vironment critic.About 30 mem-bers of a coalitionof more than 20groups opposed tothe location werepresent as the votewas recorded andare angry about thedecision.
“We plan to chal-lenge this in court,”said Glen Th omp-
son, president of Friends of theChilliwack River Valley, one of thegroups in the coalition that includesFirst Nations, environment andriver stewardship groups.
Th e coalition has been workingwith a lawyer for West Coast Envi-ronmental Law, who sent the city alast minute letter asking them notto approve fourth reading basedon some questions about the noticeprocedure for the rezoning hearingon Dec. 3. Th ompson said there arenow plans to fi le in court.
Th e waste plant, proposed by Ae-vitas Inc., which will recycle insulat-ing oil and powdered mercury fromlight bulbs among other activities,received unanimous council sup-port at third reading, on Dec. 3.
Fourth reading was also unani-mous, signalling the applicant metconditions set out during the re-zoning process. Final approval waspassed without comment, whichseemed to surprise some.
“Th ere was no discussion andno reaction on the part of the city,which is kind of disturbing for us,”said Th ompson.
Th e notice of hearing for the re-zoning contained “glowing errors,”according to Th ompson, which in-clude the omission of the Aevitasname, nor any mention of the wasterecycling activities of hazardousmaterials that could involve PCBsor mercury powder.
“Plus their map doesn’t indi-cate the Fraser River or the berm,”Th ompson added.
City offi cials maintained that theconditions set in the special M6 in-dustrial zoning and restrictive cov-enant, coupled with the company’sunblemished safety record, weredeemed suffi cient for rezoning ap-proval.

New ESL program launchedNews
The Read Right Society is run-ning another free program this month to help residents with their English skills.
A government funded initia-tive called English as a Second Language Settlement Assistance Program (ESLSAP) has already existed in Hope for several years. However, efforts are now being made to revitalize English learn-ing opportunities for adults who need the support. Classes for those who speak English as their second language will start on Feb. 20 and casual conversation circles will begin on Feb. 25.
Thursday mornings from 10-11:30 a.m. free English as a
Second Language (ESL) classes will take place at Grace Baptist Church (GBC generously donat-ed their space for the community program). The class will be run by a certified ESL instructor and will focus on individuals with level one, two or three English skills.
On Tuesday mornings from 10:30 a.m. to 12 p.m., a drop in conversation circle will run at the Hope Library. Participants of this group will get to take part in facilitated discussions that will give them opportunity to prac-tice their conversational skills in a stress-free and supportive envi-ronment.
Both programs are free but registration is required. To regis-ter contact Shayna Jones at 604-869-1973 or [email protected]
Read Right Society is a reg-istered non-profit agency that works to bring community based literacy and learning opportuni-ties to Agassiz, Hope, and Boston Bar. Programs are volunteer run and community focused.
To learn more about volunteer opportunities contact execu-tive director Jodi McBride ([email protected]) or literacy outreach coordinator Shayna Jones ([email protected]).
Boston Bar RCMP is looking for the driver of a vehicle that struck a 72-year-old man and then fled the scene on Jan. 31.
The man was walking
against the flow of traf-fic, north bound in the 47000 block of Highway 1, at about 4:30 p.m. when he was clipped by the vehicle.
He was unable to pro-
vide a description of the vehicle or the direction it was heading.
The man sustained minor injuries and has since been released from hospital.
Any witnesses or any-one with information is asked to contact Boston Bar RCMP at 604-867-9333, or CrimeStop-pers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS).

Prescription pot pretense ending
On April 1, medical marijuana growing licences expire across the country, and only licensed com-mercial growers will be able to le-gally fi ll a prescription for pot.
Ottawa is moving to clean up the mess it created by issuing medical licences all over the country. Since then, municipalities have com-plained that small-scale medical licences have been greatly exceed-ed, with many used as fronts for a criminal drug trade that has made B.C. infamous around the world.
How big is the problem? Th ere are about 38,000 Canadians li-censed to carry marijuana for medical purposes, and half of
them live in B.C. Th eir permission to grow their own or buy it from designated small-scale growers is withdrawn in a couple of months.
Here’s a look at the community level. Police in the Fraser Valley suburb of Maple Ridge estimate that it alone has 500 properties licensed to grow pot. No, Maple Ridge is not a world hotspot for glaucoma or arthritis. It is histori-cally known for its secluded prop-erties and as a base for B.C.’s prison system and the province’s Hells Angels.
Police have only an estimate be-cause Ottawa’s bungled medical pot scheme conceals the location of licensed growers from provin-cial and local governments.
RCMP Insp. Dave Fleugel told Maple Ridge council last week that his detachment will fi rst tar-get medical growers they know are linked to organized crime. But it’s
diffi cult to determine which are le-gal and which are not.
“Th is has the potential to cripple the courts,” Fleugel said. “Some-thing is going to have to take a back seat if we are going to go aft er all of them.”
Th e police and fi re department have proposed an amnesty or grace period, allowing people to disclose their location and have it properly dismantled without pen-alty, to help deal with the volume.
Th is mess was created by Ottawa in response to a court ruling that forced them to make medical pot available. Th e Harper government remains trapped in a failed war-on-drugs mentality that prevents any innovation or even common sense.
Th en there is the circus in Van-couver, where self-styled princes of pot exploit the confusion of the medical marijuana law to run an
Amsterdam-style retail trade.Cannabis Culture, the pot and
propaganda empire built by Marc Emery before he was jailed in the U.S., rants about the government’s “war on patients,” amid garish ads for “pot by post” and exotic weed varieties.
“By Health Canada’s own esti-mate, the cost will increase from $5 per gram to $8.80 per gram – going up by nearly 400 per cent,” its website warns. Apparently smoking lots of weed really is bad for your math skills.
Dana Larsen, who spearhead-ed the ill-conceived and failed decriminalization petition last year, heads up the serious-looking “Medical Cannabis Dispensary.” It has done so well at its location in the drug bazaar of East Hastings Street that it’s got a branch offi ce on Vancouver’s west side.
Its offi cial-looking forms have
a long list of conditions whereonly a confi rmation of diagnosisis required. In addition to genuineconditions such as side eff ects ofchemotherapy, it includes anxiety,psoriasis, spinal cord injury andeven “substance addictions/with-drawal.”
And did you know you can geta vet’s note to buy medical pot foryour pet?
Larsen has boasted about the ex-otic off erings of his stores, includ-ing “watermelon hash oil” at $150for 2.5 grams. Wow man, that’s like400 million per cent higher!
Fittingly, this farce goes backunderground on April Fool’s Day.Medical users can only order ship-ments from an approved commer-cial producer.

OpinionPublished at Hope, Boston Bar, Yale and surrounding area by Black Press
Weigh economic benefitsTh e debate about oil pipelines and supertankers in this province is
entering a signifi cant new phase.In its fi rst report, a B.C.-Alberta government working group on en-
ergy development recommends increasing “the public’s energy literacy on oil transportation, production and impacts on daily life.”
Since the group was formed by Premier Alison Redford, whose prov-ince’s economy runs on oil, and Christy Clark, whose province has seri-ous economic challenges, expect the group to favour oil and gas devel-opment.
As reported by Black Press B.C. legislature reporter Tom Fletcher, the report notes a “disconnect between public perception and the reality” of the importance of oil and gas to the Canadian economy.
Th ere’s truth to this.While many people understand the devastating eff ects of an oil spill,
the economic upside is a case industry and government still have to truly make.
For starters, the industry is the largest contributor to Canada’s balance of trade.
Canada is losing an estimated $50 million a day in potential revenue due to lack of access to oil customers outside the U.S., adds the report.
It further urges a better eff ort to educate people in communities, First Nations and schools about the upside of the industry to counter “misin-formation on numerous fronts.”
Speaking of which, the report paints a rosy picture of oil spill response off the B.C. coast in spite of a B.C. government study showing little ca-pacity to recover crude oil spilled off the North Coast.
As usual in a battle for our hearts and minds with so much at stake, expect misinformation from both sides.
To make the best possible decision, though, in a referendum or an election that will decide the matter, we should educate ourselves.
At the heart of this is weighing the economic benefi ts against inevi-table environmental catastrophe. If oil and gas exploration doesn’t hap-pen, we might have to make some lifestyle changes.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK:
Should teachers be allowed to negotiate class
sizes and composition?
Here’s how you responded: Yes 38% No 62%
LAST WEEK WE ASKED:
Elders on reserve and senior citizens everywhere, ask ques-tions and do research on reputa-ble repair men/women, contrac-tors, building, renovations, cars, appliances etc, etc.
I’ve had a bad experience this winter, mostly during the coldest periods. My furnace worked part of the time. As I write this letter to the editor on Feb. 11, 2014, my furnace is still not working. Th ank God the weather is warm-ing up.
I’m not asking for free repairs,
as I’ve always paid my way all my life. In my community I do not qualify for help of any kind. Th e funds go to administrations. An Elder does not count as they are no longer a productive member. Th erefore an Elder can put up with an unheated house during the winter months, right? I’ve had people off er help, such as a warmer place to stay while I have my furnace fi xed.
Th at’s where the problem is, the furnace man will not come out anymore, even though the
furnace is only fi ve years old.When I pay my bills on time
and I don’t take hand outs, why do we have to freeze in our home when we’re willing to pay for re-pairs?
Is it because I’m a female or be-cause I’m old or is it because I’m aboriginal?

On behalf of the Canadian So-ciety of Hospital Pharmacists B.C. branch, it is my pleasure to invite British Columbians to share our celebration during Pharmacy Awareness Month. Th is year’s theme is Th e Pharmacist is In.
Th e process by which medica-tions reach a patient in a hospital setting may not be as familiar to the public as the one that occurs in a community pharmacy. Th e hospital pharmacy team consists of pharmacists and pharmacy technicians, working with pa-tients and other healthcare pro-viders to ensure appropriate, safe
and eff ective medication use. Th e preparation of medications in the dispensary is just one aspect of medication delivery that the pharmacist is involved with in the hospital. Pharmacists will also be involved on patient wards as part of the interdisciplinary health-care team that serves patients. Th e pharmacist will work to as-sess patient’s medication thera-pies to help them better optimize their regimens, minimize the occurrence of adverse drug reac-tions and educate them on the drug therapy that they are taking. Regulated technicians, with their
expanded scope of practice, are performing more technical duties enabling the pharmacists to be more involved with direct patient care activities.
During Pharmacy Awareness Month, a number of hospitals and community pharmacies will be hosting activities. I encourage everyone to join in the festivi-ties, drop by and discuss with the pharmacy team how they contrib-ute to patient care on a daily basis.

Re: Neil Young take a look at your facts, B.C. Views (Jan. 23)
Tom Fletcher should stop taking Natural Re-sources Minister Joe Oliver’s advice. Drinking from tailings ponds does not appear to be bring-ing any clarity to his ar-gument.
Th e fact that simi-lar environmental de-struction exists in the U.S. means Canadians should shut up and ig-
nore what goes on in our country? Would Fletch-er at least concede that any industrial develop-ment of this size comes at a signifi cant cost to the environment?
I agree that the oil-sands are extremely
important to the Cana-dian economy and pro-vide thousands of high-paying jobs to people across this country, but surely there’s room for a balanced discussion. Perhaps we could start somewhere between
shutting it down as Neil Young would prefer or expanding it as fast as humanly possible, the clear choice of the pres-ent federal and Alberta governments.
If Young’s comments lead to discussions at
dinner tables across this country then he did us all a great service.

Re: Neil Young take a look at your facts, B.C. Views (Jan. 23)
Th anks to Tom Fletch-er’s column, a few more people know the truth. Using lies to sell a point of view robs any movement of credibility. Th ere is no truth by vote; if enough people believe a lie, it’s still a lie. If we citizens want to fi ght the good fi ght, we must use the truth and not recursively quote each other’s untruths. Otherwise, the moment our lies are found out, we are discredited. Neil Young, your lies betrayed the movement you claim to support.

B.C. moves ahead with liquor reforms Tom FletcherBlack Press
The B.C. govern-ment is moving ahead with promised liquor reforms, promising free-range drinking at music festivals, stadi-ums and hotels as well as eventual sales in grocery stores.
Attorney General Suzanne Anton an-nounced that the gov-ernment is accepting all 73 recommenda-tions from Richmond-Steveston MLA John Yap, who led a con-sultation last year on updating archaic li-quor laws. New rules include eliminating the requirement for fencing around music festival beer gardens, licensing the entire
site via a simpler ap-plication.
“This will allow fam-ilies to stay together at events, reduce costs for festival organizers and make the festival experience that much better for all fans of live music,” said Bob D’Eith, executive di-rector of Music B.C.
Along with a dip in the Canadian dol-lar, the move should be good news for the Squamish Valley Mu-sic Festival in early August. Organizers have announced a high-profile lineup in-cluding Detroit rapper Eminem, Quebec’s Ar-cade Fire and Hawai-ian singer-songwriter Bruno Mars.
The normally laid-
back Salmon Arm Roots & Blues Festi-val had an incident in 2009, when reggae-rock band Bedouin Soundclash invited patrons of the packed beer garden to break down the fence and join the main throng in front of the stage for their final Saturday night set. The invita-tion was quickly ac-cepted, with damage restricted mainly to the snow fencing.
The Merritt Moun-tain Music Festival ran for nearly 20 years, be-coming notorious for uninhibited all-night parties featuring out-door couches and hot tubs. It was cancelled in 2010 after efforts to tone it down resulted
in poor attendance. Ithas since been replacedby the Bass Coast Mu-sic and Art Festival,a dry event that relo-cated from Squamishlast year. The countrycrowd now has theoption of the Rockin’River Music Fest inMission Aug. 7-9, withthis year’s lineup in-cluding Rascal Flattsand Terri Clark.
In sports stadiums,hard liquor sales willno longer be restrictedto premium seatingand private boxes. An-ton warned that somer e c o m m e n d a t i o n s ,such as liquor salesin grocery stores, willtake time to imple-ment, and legislationis needed for somechanges.

Mario BartelBlack Press
A Burnaby man whose neg-ligence while piloting a pas-senger on a hang gliding flight in Agassiz caused her to fall to her death has been sentenced to five months in jail.
Jon Orders, who’s originally from New Zealand, had ear-lier pleaded guilty to a charge of criminal negligence caus-ing death after Lenami Godi-nez-Avila, a 27-year-old from Mexico, plummeted 300 metres during a tandem flight from Mount Woodside just before noon April 28, 2012.
Orders was also charged with obstruction of justice after he swallowed a memory card from a video camera that recorded the incident, but that charge was stayed. The card was even-tually recovered and its con-tents were described during the
court hearing Feb. 7 when Or-ders pleaded guilty.
The flight was Godinez-Avi-la’s first, a gift from her boy-friend who was watching from the ground. Shortly after taking off, Orders realized something had gone wrong and his pas-senger was slipping out of her harness. He tried to hang on to her but she fell to the ground. Her body was found later that night.
Shortly after the incident, Orders made a public apol-ogy and vowed he’d never hang glide again.
The Hang Gliding and Para-gliding Association of Canada, which also investigated the in-cident, said it was the first time such a fatality had occurred in Canada. It found Godinez-Avi-la’s harness had not been con-nected to the glider at takeoff and Orders had failed to per-
form a pre-launch readinessassessment. A report releasedby the association four monthsafter the accident suggested“multiple distractions” mayhave contributed to the over-sights.
As part of his sentence, Jus-tice Brian Joyce also placedOrders on probation for threeyears during which he’ll be pro-hibited from hang gliding. He’llalso have to perform 24 hours ofcommunity service work, likelylecturing hang gliding groupsabout safety, said Crown Coun-sel spokesman Neil MacKenzie.
The sentence was consistentwith what Crown had request-ed, said MacKenzie.
The hang gliding associationhad already suspended Orders’certification as an instructor.

Public Safety Notice – Snowmobiler and Winter Recreation Users
Winter recreationalists and snowmobilers should be aware that construction of the Interior to Lower Mainland (ILM) Transmission Line continues. On-site activities include clearing of the right-of-way; construction of access roads and tower foundations; and tower assembly and erection.
The ILM right-of-way continues to be a construction zone with restricted access. Restricted access is required for worker and public safety to avoid risks associated with such things as guy lines, partially constructed foundations, construction materials, or other potential hazards that may be hidden or partially hidden by the snow.
Please avoid using the right-of-way for your activities. If you are in the area, use extra care when traveling around the right-of-way.
The ILM project is a new 247 kilometre 500 kilovolt transmission line between Merritt and Coquitlam that will expand the electrical system so that BC Hydro can continue to deliver clean and reliable energy to homes and businesses in the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island.

New comedy about marriage and retirement
Gord Sutherland is debuting his latest comedy His Her Re-tirement at the Hope Legion this week.
The show, presented by Family of Comics, deals with the chal-lenges of being togeth-er 24/7 when a couple retires. The couple is faced with renewing their relationship and finding dreams they can chase now that their time is their own.
“Retirement can be confusing, but it can also be time to recon-nect, reflect and have a laugh. Laughing in the face of wrinkles is what this show is all about,” said Sutherland.
“It is my hope that this work will connect with my generation,
the Baby Boomers, as we face the reality we never prepared for – we’re now the old folks. The movers and shakers are now being sidelined and finding
retirement is not the great life the 55 plus commercials prom-ised.”
Sutherland’s connec-tion with Hope’s loca-tion and people com-
pelled him to debutHis Her Retirementhere.
“Now in my 60s Ican say I’ve had a life-long love affair withHope,” he said.
“I have stood in aweat the natural beautyand delighted withthe humour and wel-coming nature of resi-dents.”
Sutherland re-members hitchhikingthrough the commu-nity as a teenager fromhis home in Surrey topick fruit in the Okan-agan. Arriving late intown, a motel ownertook pity on him anda friend, and providedthem with a room andmeal.
He also has fondmemories of canoeingthe Fraser River andstopping for breakfastnumerous times on hisway out of town.
Sutherland will bejoined on stage by sea-soned actress NancyGuitar. The pair pres-ent His Her Retire-ment Feb. 14 and Feb.21. Showtimes are 2:30p.m. and 7:30 p.m.
Tickets are $12.50for matinee and $15 forevening shows. Reser-vations can be made at604-217-0849.

When the dust settled, it was visiting teams taking home the treasure after the sixth annual Dusty’s Men’s Hockey Tournament last weekend.
The 14-team, two-divi-sion event attracted squads from as far away as Ques-nel.
That 30-plus men would travel such a distance says something about their pas-sion for the game — but also something about the value of connections and friendships. The Hope Ice-breakers junior B hockey team hasn’t been in town since 2007 but they have left a legacy that keeps bringing players to the Hope Arena.
“The Quesnel team has two brothers that were on the team in the A-division that are related to old Icebreaker co-owner, Ja-nine Skerratt,” said event organizer, Dusty Smith. “They’ve come down for the last three years. The other Quesnel team’s rep had played with Reghan and Jason Skerratt before, but he wanted to bring his own team this year.
“The Quesnel B team were all young. Their old-est player was 25,” added Smith. “The youngest player in the tournament was Kevin Misumi, who is 18. He played for Ogilvie Mountain Holdings… Rick Limb’s team.
“And the oldest player was 63 years old, on the Jolly Miller team from Chilliwack,” said Smith. “Dave Gormley. He used to play pro hockey and he was probably one of the steadi-est defensemen out there last weekend.”
Of the more than 200 participants, Smith fig-ured about 45 were former Hope Minor Hockey play-ers, many now living out of town.
Former Hopians Chris Budau and Bill Nash brought in a team from Maple Ridge and picked up
locals Mike Talarico and goalie John Fortoloczky. They beat the Abbotsford Snakes 4-2 in the B-final on Sunday and received $250 in prize money, which helped defray some of their $750 entry fee.
Friday’s opening match at 4 p.m. featured Mark Petryk’s Bruins against Smith’s Car Guys squad, with the Car Guys getting
run over 7-1. The Bruins’ Kurtis Bergstrom iced the win with a late-game goal, following an end-to-end rush that he might be hard-pressed to ever repeat. It was a thing of beauty.
Jolly Miller grounded the Abby Flyers in Sun-day’s A-final, winning 4-2.
“Jolly Miller also has Mike Carlson, who used to play on the Abby Pilots in
the same era as the Hope Icebreakers,” added Smith. “And the Flyers play in a premier league in Abbots-ford. They’re pretty good.
“If I had more ice times available, I could have gone to 16 or 18 teams,” figured Smith.
“I’ll try to have it on the same (Family Day) week-end next year, so I can run it a bit later on Sunday and
the guys won’t have to rush home. The holiday Mon-day is a nice day for re-couping.”
Even with the 14 teams, there were some red-eye game slots on Friday and Saturday nights, with 11:30 and 10:30 starts.
“We’re shooting for 14 teams in our March 21, 22, 23 league tournament,” said Smith, the president
of the six-team Hope men’sleague.
“We’ll have all six localteams and I hope to haveeight others.”
The formerly-annualHope Friendship HockeyTournament will be a no-go this year, said Smith— though he has a planto perhaps run one at thebeginning of next season,shortly after Brigade Days.
Hockey tournament attracts former Hope players
The Car Guys’ Jeff Smith shoots on the Bruins’ Clayton Steinebach in the opening game of the Dusty’s Tournament last Friday. The game featured two Claytons in net, with Clayton Kellum at the other end. The Bruins prevailed for a 7-1 win but ran out of magic for the rest of the weekend. The 14-team tournament attracted teams from as far away as Quesnel.
