Above are a number of the Kimberley Klassics, Red Hatters. Queen Mother, Annie Johnston, is presenting Carol Fergus of the Building Committee for Centre 64 and an envelop with $400 in it from our group. The Chapter has been in Kimberley since May 2005. The ladies meet the second Tuesday of the month either for lunch or dinner. Dues are collected for the Chapter and this time the ladies decided that rather than have the money sit doing nothing, they would donate $400 to the Building Fund for Centre 64. The money will go to the new elevator, and all who know Annie know she is a champion of accessibility in Kimberley. The Kimberley Klassics also collect money each gathering for the Food Bank and give approximately $300 to $400 at Christmas time for gifts for their clients. They are strictly a social group of women who enjoy eating out and talking with friends and supporting our Community in any way they can. For more information about the group, contact Annie Johnston at 250-427-4418.

First Saturday in June

KIMBeRley FesTs

Buskers, artisans wanted

c arolyn gr [email protected]

After a great start in May, the First Satur-day in June is almost upon us. First Satur-days are all about celebrating arts and cul-ture in Kimberley, and the June 1 celebra-tion will be no exception.

The anchor event for this First Saturday is Marysville Daze (see related story this page) but a number of events have also been planned for Kimberley’s Platzl.

The First Saturday concept is to have one anchor event that will get people out and about, and then to try to capture that crowd and get them moving to other events as well. This was accomplished in May with the Dynamiter’s Bull-A-Rama as anchor. That First Saturday took on a Western theme and there was plenty of free, family friendly entertainment provided.

This Saturday, June 1, Kimberley will celebrate Heritage. In addition to all the ac-tivities around Marysville Daze, there will be entertainment in the Platzl from noon to 4 p.m.

The committee running First Saturdays, which includes Kimberley Arts Council in partnership with the City of Kimberley, Tourism Kimberley and the Kimberley Chamber of Commerce, will be providing busking opportunities in the Platzl on every First Saturday between 1 and 4 p.m.

This is an opportunity for musicians and other acts to showcase their talent and get some exposure. If you want to perform in the Platzl you must register for each First Saturday event ahead of time through the Kimberley Arts Council. All performances will be limited to 30 minutes in one location and will be unplugged. Buskers must also keep in mind that they are performing for a family audience.

Marysville Daze this weekendc arolyn gr anT

[email protected]

The Marysville Lions may no longer exist as a separate club, having amalgamated with the Kimberley Lions Club to form the Mark Creek Lions, but that doesn’t mean the big event, Marysville Daze, has ended.

Marysville Daze is a tradition in Kimberley

and the Mark Creek Lions are ready to present its 53rd rendition this weekend, Saturday, June 1.

It all kicks off with a pancake breakfast be-ginning at 8 a.m. at the Marysville Arena. Pancakes, sausages, hash browns, strawber-ries and cream are on the menu.

Entertainment starts at noon and features the Kimberley Pipe Band, Cranbrook All Girls

Drum and Bugle Band and the Bunkhouse Boys with displays by the Dragon Forge, the Kimberley Dance Academy, Gymnastics Club and Highland Dancers. There is an all new Kids Korner with lots of activities to keep the kids amused while parents explore the Flea Market and Craft Show or enjoy the entertain-ment.

Introducing Nutri MULTI for women featuring 1000 IU of VITAMIN D in a new

super-sized, pleasant tasting formula.

Why you should consider a LIQUID multivitamin supplement. Many experts now believe that consuming vitamin supplements in liquid form is substantially more benefi cial than relying on solid pills-a belief that is supported by research studies: “liquid supplements contain the nutrients in a more highly bioavailable form, are gentler to the stomach, and sometimes are more suitable than solid supplements, especially for children and elderly patients.”The liquid advantageA liquid multivitamin supplement offers a number of benefi ts over solid forms for people of all ages, but especially for older adults or those with known digestive issues. Among the benefi ts are the following:• Liquids are quickly and readily absorbed, as they do not fi rst need to be broken down.

• Liquids contain no fi llers, binders or coatings that may interfere with proper dissolution.

• Liquids are fully dissolved upon ingestion, and allow for absorption of key nutrients along the entire gastrointestinal tract.

• Liquids are a welcome alternative for people who have trouble swallowing solid pills, particularly children, the elderly and those who are ill or convalescing.

• Due to enhanced absorption of nutrients, liquids may allow for lower general dosing than with solid pills.

For the Bulletin

Selkirk Music stu-dents went on an amaz-ing trip to Calgary in late May, stopping enroute to perform at Isabella Dicken Elementary in Fernie, where they were well-received by stu-dents and staff. In Cal-gary the students saw the Calgary Philhar-monic Orchestra per-form the music from the movie The Fellowship of the Ring, while audienc-es watched the film on a giant screen. With over 250 musicians and sing-ers on stage, audiences had the opportunity to

hear the amazing soundtrack from The Fellowship of the Ring in a whole new way. It was thrilling to watch some of Western Cana-da’s finest musicians perform this impressive and exhausting work, playing almost straight for over 3 hours.

At the beginning of last month students also performed at the Music Monday celebrations in the Platzl, along with Mr. McCue’s class from McKim, and several hundred outstanding singers from Lindsay Park and Marysville Ele-mentary. This is the first time in recent memory that Music Monday Cel-ebrations have taken place, and we are very excited to do so again in the future.

norm macdonaldMLA Columbia River -

Revelstoke

I want to begin by

thanking the people of Columbia River – Revelstoke for choos-ing me to represent them in the Legisla-ture. It is clear that people here want a better government that puts the inter-ests of regular British Columbians ahead of corporate interests or a chosen few.

I will continue to serve as a member of the Opposition, a critically important role in a democracy. Our parliamentary system is set up to provide balance and scrutiny. My job is to be relentless in hold-ing the government to account for its ac-tions.

I will view every piece of legislation through the lens of what is best for my constituents. And I will push govern-ment to amend every piece of legislation to ensure that it serves the public interest.

And I will fight

every government action that hurts my area. Whether it is in reaction to cuts to healthcare services, reduced services for children, or the mis-use of public lands, I will stand with you in opposition.

Recent history tells us that people can force change. We have been successful in reversing the HST, stopping the privat-ization of our rivers and getting services

and facilities for our seniors. But we al-ways did it together, and it was always a fight.

The first item of Legislative business will be the passing of a budget for the Prov-ince. The BC Liber-als tabled a budget in February that they claimed was bal-anced. But that sup-position was based on the use of deferral accounts in BC Hydro, the fire sale of assets and significant reductions in ser-vices.

The fact is that those cuts will come hard and fast over the next months, and the BC Liberals have always targeted rural communities first.

We have only one choice. We must s t a n d t o g e t h e r against the loss of services. We must make it so uncom-fortable for the gov-ernment that they have to back down.

I look forward to standing with you for the next four years. Thank you again for your support.

a new hair salon (Mane Street) and plenty of thriving busi-nesses.

Creekside Physio is up to 10 staff; Signal Collision has been spruced up with a new look; and of course there’s the new putting

course just up St. Mary Lake Road at the Kim-berley Riverside Campground.

Even a business that is currently for sale — Buddha Belly Deli — is not doing poorly. The owners, Chris and Liz, just

want to retire, but say that they have a great clientele and business is booming.

There are also a number of other busi-nesses, plus the eco park and boardwalk to the falls, two golf courses, the Purcell

soccer fields and more.With Marysville

Daze just around the corner, it might be a good time to check out what’s happening in Marysville. There’s a positive mood in the air, and lots to see and do.

Whether you’re a beginner or advanced climber in the East Kootenays, there is now a guidebook to help you locate the best spots in the area. The East Kootenay Climbing: Cranbrook/Kimberley Area guide-book was assembled by Cranbrook climber Gordon McArthur.

McArthur has been climbing in the Koote-nays for over 16 years and has competed on an international level for the past five, repre-senting Canada for three.

He said he will be hard at work for the next six months train-ing and focusing on upcoming events.

But somehow over the past couple years, McArthur has found the time to work on the book.

“It’s a guidebook ac-tually that took me two and a half years to build,” he said. “It fea-tures a lot of editorial stories from climbers all over North America and seven different venues as far as climb-ing location. A lot of

stories about climbing in the area. It’s a guide-book but it has a coffee table kind of feel to it.”

He said the book was a collaboration as far as content goes from quite a few climb-ers in the area.

It features various stories by climbers talking about what it is that drives them to climb and how it af-

fects them personally. McArthur himself

added quite a few of his own stories. He said climbing to him is something he needs to live.

“Without it, it feels like I can’t breathe,” he said. “I get short of breath. When I do climb, I feel better.”

McArthur was happy to finally see the book released.

“It’s just so awe-some to finally have a proper guidebook for

the area,” he said. “I think it’s going to grow the sport. It’s a great service to have so peo-ple can get out there safely and enjoy the venues. I’m just really excited to share that with everybody now.”

He said there are a couple of the venues that require the climb-er to be aware of logis-tics and other things, which the guidebook defines. He said

“It provides info so that your experience

can be safer and you have a heads up going into certain areas,” he said. “You’re not just blindfolded.”

McArthur will be signing books and posters from his spon-sors from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. on Saturday, May 25.

MONDAY, MAY 27, 2013

Premier Christy Clark is recalling the legislature for an unusual summer session to enact the B.C. Liberal par-

ty’s hold-the-line election budget and say “no” to expectations of a big jump in pro-gram spending.

“Now is the time for us to get to work,” she told a roomful of beaming B.C. Liber-als who gathered for a postelection de-brief-cum-celebration in downtown Vancouver last Thursday. “This summer we’re going to call back the legislature … to pass balanced budget 2013.”

The house hasn’t sat for any significant length of time at high sum-mer since 2001, when the newly-elected Liberal government of then premier Gor-don Campbell (with Clark as deputy pre-mier) called a session to enact a 90-day plan.

Clark’s plan of action is not as sweep-ing as Campbell’s. But the goal is similar, namely to ensure the new government hits the ground running and to set the tone for the next four years, starting with what she regards as “an obligation” to the electorate.

“We made them a promise. And that was that we weren’t going to grow the government, we are going to grow the economy. We’re not going to spend more of your money that we don’t have. We’re going to leave it in your pockets. We’re not going to leave our children with moun-tains of debt. We are going to balance our budget and pay off that debt.”

The first element, holding the line on the growth of government, will be one of the toughest to sustain, as Clark made clear in her speech.

“There will be calls to spend money,” she told the mix of newly-elected MLAs, re-elected veterans, and candidates who like herself failed to win their seats. “For the next little while our answer to most of those questions has to be no, not now. “

One of the first groups to hear that firm “no, not now” will surely be the B.C. Teachers Federation, representing thou-sands of unionized teachers whose con-tract expires at the end of June.

Clark made a passing reference to the idea she’d floated earlier in the year for a 10-year agreement to bring labour peace

to the K-12 school system. “We will make sure that every one of our children has the chance to fight and win on the world stage be-cause we are going to find labour peace in our class-rooms.”

Not likely would the government be prepared to front-end-load such an agreement with any signifi-cant increase in pay and benefit beyond the roughly two-per-cent-per year that has been advanced to other public sector unions of late.

But the BCTF can’t expect any gener-osity from the Liberals. The union was counting on them to lose the election, a preference that was unabashedly on dis-play in a remark that outgoing president Susan Lambert made to a cheering crowd at the union convention earlier this year.

“You know, I may be a lame duck,” she declared, “but I think Christy’s goose is cooked.”

Speaking of birds of a feather, she and the other BCTF leaders (the comment drew a standing ovation from some 600 teacher delegates) might wish to join poll-sters, pundits and others in a tasty dish of crow.

The union also dared to hope that it would be facing a more receptive New Democratic Party government by the time the contract talks began. “Our job now is to challenge the NDP, possibly our next provincial government, to commit to in-crease spending on public education, even if that means increasing taxes,” said Lambert. “That political advocacy is an inextricable part of our work as a profes-

sion because we are a social justice union of professionals.”

Instead, the union’s self-styled advo-cates for social justice will find them-selves across the table from the represen-tatives of a government that believes it won a mandate from the voters to hold the line on spending and to pursue peace in the schools.

Should make for a provocative round of bargaining.

The looming negotiations with the BCTF do not begin to exhaust to-do list for Clark and her newly elected cohort of MLAs.

There’s keeping the budget in balance, closing deals to establish a liquefied natu-ral gas industry, sorting out the dubious financial picture at BC Hydro, dealing with an increasingly restive community of First Nations, and ensuring that her vaunted jobs plan delivers a steady stream of private sector jobs.

“If any of you thought the last 28 days was hard, now comes the hard part be-cause the people of B.C. have entrusted us with a tremendous responsibility and we have an obligation to deliver on that responsibility,” she told her Liberals yes-terday, not understating the challenges ahead.

As to the timing of Clark’s proposed summer session, it could be complicated by her stated goal of “being there” when the legislature sits. She lost her own bid for a seat on the floor of the house and has yet to line up a replacement.

Standard practice would be for one of the Liberals to resign and make way for a byelection in a seat counted as relatively safe for the governing party.

On that expectation, and allowing for the established timetable for holding a byelection and certifying the result, she and the legislature could both be back in action by mid to late July.

OpiniOn/EvEnts

On May 31, 2013, health care organi-zations around the world bring at-tention to World No Tobacco Day.

This year’s theme is “Ban tobacco ad-vertising, promotion and sponsorship.” Tobacco advertising bans aim to counter-act the misleading information used in marketing campaigns and also strive to prevent youth from being exposed to the lure of to-bacco advertising.

Sadly, only six per cent of the world’s populations are protected from expo-sure to tobacco industry advertising tactics.

In Canada, the Tobacco Act aims to protect the health of Canadi-ans by regulating tobacco advertising, re-stricting access to tobacco products and increasing public awareness of the health hazards of using tobacco products. The Tobacco Products Labelling Regulations require that tobacco product labels in-clude health warning messages covering 75 per cent of the front and back of the packaging of cigarettes and little cigars.

Health information messages such as “never quit trying to quit” are required to

be included inside the packaging and a Canadian quit line number must also be provided to link smokers with cessation services in their province.

Because most tobacco users begin be-fore the age of 14 it is important to ensure our youth are not exposed to tobacco pro-motions. The Tobacco Act prohibits to-

bacco marketing directed at youth but despite this, the tobacco industry re-mains aggressive in pro-moting tobacco products to youth in new and clever ways.

Flavoured products and colorful packaging

have recently been used to attract youth to tobacco products. Flavoured tobacco comes in almost every imaginable flavour — cherry, strawberry, banana and mint and more. Many youth equate these prod-ucts to candy, rather than seeing them as harmful and addictive tobacco products. Flavours appeal to kids because they re-duce the unpleasant odor and disguise the bad taste of tobacco. Flavoured tobacco products are just as addictive as other non-flavoured products.

The tobacco industry is also using fla-vours in other products such as hookahs and electronic cigarettes to entice chil-dren, youth and adults.

The global tobacco epidemic kills near-ly 6 million people each year. Over 600,000 people are non-smokers dying from expo-sure to second hand smoke. It is projected tobacco will kill more than 8 million peo-ple every year by the year 2030. Over 80 per cent of these deaths are preventable.

Tobacco advertising bans can play an important role in preventing people from starting to use tobacco and subsequently reducing others from being exposed to second hand smoke. Let’s support and drive national efforts to protect future generations so they can live, work and play in a smoke free world.

Letters to the editorFraggle rock

I’m the guy responsible for naming Fraggle Rock.

My first sign stayed for nearly a year, then it was gone.

I made another sign and it stayed about a year, then it was gone. After a few months it came back for a short time, then it was gone again.

After reading the letter to the editor from John Nesbitt, it inspired me to make my third and final sign.

It stayed there for one week and it’s gone.

It’s obvious someone dislikes the sign being there, but to some of us it will always be Fraggle Rock.

at any cost …The election ad in the May 8 Towns-

man by Cranbrook Physicians for Health was a big case of errors and omissions.

Were they too busy or too important to bother complying with the Election Act? Section 231(1) of the Act requires third parties who wish to advertise during an election campaign to register with Elec-tions BC. Further, they must state in their ad that they are a registered sponsor under the Election Act, and they must provide an address or phone number where they may be contacted. The ad in the Townsman by the Cranbrook Physi-cians for Health failed to fulfill these re-quirements.

The errors include the statement that “Cranbrook is a full-service regional hos-pital” and that “We have a full comple-

ment of medical specialists.” The ad lists 14 specialties. The Kalispell Regional Hospital lists 39 specialties including: car-diology 9 physicians, cardiothoracic sur-gery 2, medical oncology 6, neurology 6, neurosurgery 3, nephrology 2, rheumatol-ogy 2, pulmonology 3, endocrinology 3. For a fuller look at a regional hospital of-fering a full spectrum of health care ser-vices, google Kalispell Regional Medical Center’s clear and informative website.

How does the Kalispell area, with a population not much greater than Cran-brook’s health area, get to where Dr. Mil-ton Glatterer says “It will be an uncom-mon need to travel out of the Flathead Valley for heart surgery”? How? The area legislators work hard and quietly bring home their fair share, while not having their funds drained off to pay for big city stadiums and convention centres—all without political cheerleaders.

There is much more to life than win-ning elections at any cost.

senate scandalOver the past week I have heard from

constituents voicing disgust and displea-sure with recent events that have occurred in Ottawa, specifically the issues revolving around Senators Duffy, Wallin, Brazeau and Harb.

I can tell you unequivocally that I am equally upset over the entire set of events. I do not condone nor tolerate any form of illegal activity whether criminal or civil in nature.

I am frustrated by a set of legislative rules that do not allow us to remove some-

one from public office for a breach of trust. Furthermore, if a criminal act has been committed and enough evidence is gath-ered then it should be brought before the courts for judgement.

The Senate is enshrined in the Consti-tution. That is why we have asked the Su-preme Court of Canada whether the re-forms we have proposed can be accom-plished by Parliament alone. We have also asked the Court to rule on options for abolishing the Senate completely.

Most, if not all pundits, agree that the latter is not likely due to a constitutional challenge. Most amendments can be passed only if identical resolutions are adopted by the House of Commons, the Senate and a two-thirds majority of the provincial legislative assemblies repre-senting at least 50 per cent of the national population. This formula, which is out-lined in section 38 of the Constitution Act, 1982, is sometimes referred to as the “gen-eral amendment procedure” and is known more colloquially as the “7+50. In simple terms, it is not likely to happen.

There is no room for ignorance of law or procedure when you sit at the highest level of government. We have at our dis-posal countless legal authorities to give us advice and guidance. If you choose not to accept that advice or guidance then, in my opinion, you live with the consequences.

Any person who holds a public office position, either elected or appointed, should not only withstand public scrutiny, but stand before the public to explain any short comings.

If you can do neither, you should do the honourable thing and quit the position.

SUBMIT TED With athletes com-

peting – from 13U all the way up to 18U, the East Kootenay Volleyball club had a banner year in their 2013 club season. In fact, they won 2 pro-vincial banners, medaled in many of the premier and provincial events with the indoor season that concluded Nation-als tournament a week ago.

At the Nationals the 16U girls and 16U boys team came home with medals. With over 200 athletes and coaches, the club has grown to record size with 18 teams - in-cluding satellite teams

existing in Invermere, Sparwood and Creston.

The club is fortunate to have mentor coach Steve Kamps, head coach of the COTR mens volleyball team work with the club coaches to help improve their coaching skills.

The club philosophy is to develop coaches through certification and professional develop-ment.

This year Steve Kamps, Herb Tepper and Andrew Zurrin will at-tend Art of Coaching Vol-leyball conference in Calgary to bring back more information to the club coaches. The con-

ference includes interna-tionally renowned coaches such as USA Olympic Coach Hugh McCutcheon who coached the USA Men’s and Women’s Volleyball Team.

The EKVC teams compete in the Alberta Volleyball Association because the distance to travel to tournaments is shorter than competing in BC.

The club gets the best of both worlds by being able to compete in Al-berta – yet BC allows us in their provincial events and tournaments. Last year, EKVC Ben Smith made Team BC and will

move onto the College of the Rockies Avalanche team.

The 2nd annual Rich Wayling Memorial home tournament proved to be a big success bringing teams from as far away as Edmonton and Kelowna.

The 15U Red team finished 3rd while the 16U Red team finished 2nd in the tournament. The tournament also al-lows for excellent devel-opment of our local offi-cials.

Senior officials John Kendal and Ken Taka-hashi have put on 5 offi-ciating courses over this past two years that certi-fied 20 Local officials and six Provincial officials.

A highlight of the year is 18U athlete Shacarra Orr being named to the Canadian Sit Volleyball National team.

Shacarra will travel to Oklahoma in October to represent Canada and the Board of Directors and fellow teammates are proud of her accom-plishment.

The club was found-ed in 1997 with one boys

team and the intent of creating a feeder system for the COTR Avalanche program. Since those early beginnings, the girls teams have multi-plied with 2 teams at the 13U and 15U age and 3 teams at the 14U and 16U age.

While soccer is the number one participant sport played in the world, not many people know that volleyball is number two. Finding indoor practice time for all the teams can be challeng-ing. The club is grateful for the gym time allotted at the schools and the college.

As the indoor season winds down, the club transitions from indoor volleyball to beach vol-leyball.

Many of the athletes use beach volleyball to improve their indoor game. Movement and jumping are greatly im-proved by playing volley-ball in the sand. Some of the club athletes are be-ginning their training for BC Games Beach Volley-ball in 2014.

Hockey Canada bans bodychecking at the peewee level

C ANADIAN PRESS

CHARLOTTETOWN - The game of hockey will soon change for pee-wee-level players across the country after a vote by Hockey Canada on Saturday that banned bodychecking.

Hockey Canada’s board of directors over-whelmingly voted to eliminate bodychecking for peewee players at its annual general meeting in Charlottetown on Sat-urday, with only the Sas-katchewan Hockey Asso-ciation voting against.

The decision comes in the same month that both Hockey Alberta and Hockey Nova Scotia did away with bodychecking for its peewee players, who are usually 11 and 12 years old. Quebec had also previously banned it.

Debate over when to allow players to start hit-ting has inflamed emo-tions on both sides of the argument for years.

But research that

came out of Alberta last year showed there was a three-fold increase in the risk of injuries for pee-wee players who check in Alberta, compared to those in Quebec where bodychecking is not al-lowed until bantam.

Paul Carson, vice-president of hockey development for Hockey Canada, said safety was a key factor in the board’s decision. He said reac-tion at the meeting was mixed, but most thought it was the right move.

“While some would be reluctant because of their traditional beliefs of the game, they also un-derstood that the safety and the area of skill de-velopment were critical issues to consider,” said Carson on Saturday.

Kelly McClintock, general manager of the Saskatchewan Hockey Association, maintains that bodychecking is a skill that should be taught to children as young and eight and nine.

“Our membership has always been very strongly in favour of hav-ing bodychecking as early as possible,” he said. “It’s always been a pretty emotional discus-sion.”

Heat topple Pacers to take 2-1 series lead

INDIANAPOLIS - LeBron James scored 22 points and the Miami Heat rediscovered their offensive punch, routing the Indiana Pacers 114-96 on Sun-day night to take a 2-1 lead in the Eastern Confer-ence finals.

James got plenty of help as the Heat reclaimed the home-court advantage they lost two nights ear-lier. Dwyane Wade had 18 points, and Udonis Haslem added 17.

David West led Indiana with 21 points, and Roy Hibbert had 20 points and 17 rebounds. The Pacers lost for the first time at home in the playoffs this season, dropping to 6-1.

Game 4 is Tuesday night in Indianapolis.Associated Press

Mooseheads capture Memorial Cup, beat Winterhawks in final“It felt like the lon-

gest game ever but now it seems as if it went so fast, as if the past two years just flew by. This feels as if it’s not even real. This is crazy.”

Mooseheads coach Dominique Ducharme said his best players excel when the games mean the most.

“Nathan, Jonathan and Fucale ... those guys, they like big mo-ments,” he said. “They like playing in big games and they want to be difference makers and tonight they were.

“They like playing in big games. Those guys like facing big teams and big moments and big challenges. Tonight they just showed that they’re big-time play-ers.”

Ty Rattie had a goal and three assists, while Nicolas Petan added a goal and two assists for the Winterhawks. Seth Jones and Brendan Leipsic scored for Port-land, while Mac Car-ruth made 35 stops for the Western Hockey League champions.

“It’s not kind of dis-appointing, it’s very dis-appointing,” said Win-terhawks coach Travis Green, whose team was down 3-0 after the first period. “I thought we showed a lot of heart coming back. We made a late push but it wasn’t enough.”

Leading 3-2 in the third, MacKinnon gave his team some breath-ing room at 7:36 with his tournament-leading sixth goal by chipping a puck past a fallen Car-ruth.

Abeltshauser then followed up on a MacK-innon rush to bury a re-bound at 11:11 to make it 5-2.

Leipsic got one back for Portland at 14:32 and Rattie scored with 1:14 left to cut the defi-cit to one, but MacKin-non iced the game with 22.4 seconds remaining before the Mooseheads spilled onto to the ice to celebrate at the final buzzer.

“It’s probably the greatest game I’ve ever played. It’s just the greatest moment,”

Drouin said. “It’s unbe-lievable. Winning the Memorial Cup with this group of guys is remark-able.

“We’ll remember this game for probably the rest of our lives.”

Down 3-0 after a di-sastrous first period, the Winterhawks came out with renewed vigour in the second, outshoot-ing the Mooseheads 18-6 and scoring twice.

Portland got its first while killing a penalty when Rattie jumped on a Halifax turnover in the Mooseheads end and fed Petan, who beat Fu-cale with a backhand move at 10:36.

The Winterhawks, who won the WHL title despite the season-long suspension of coach and general manager Mike Johnston for transgressions that in-cluded financial perks for players and their families, looked to have cut the deficit to one later in the period, but after a video review it was judged Rattie di-rected the puck into the net with his glove.

Jeff DavisCanadian Press

SASKATOON - Hali-fax Mooseheads golden boy Nathan MacKin-non was named the most valuable player at the 2013 MasterCard Memorial Cup on Sun-day, raising Nova Sco-tian hopes for another homegrown hockey phenom.

MacKinnon capped off the tournament with a hat trick in the final, nailing down a 6-4 vic-tory by flipping a loose puck into an empty net with 22 seconds left in the third period. It was his second three-goal game of the tourna-ment, both against the demoralized Portland

Winterhawks.“It’s pretty cool,”

said MacKinnon. “The feeling would be the same whether I had one point, no points or five points tonight.”

MacKinnon hails from the town of Cole Harbour, N.S., which few Canadians had heard of before the me-teoric rise of superstar Sidney Crosby. The two attended the same high school, Shattuck-St. Mary’s Academy and both are five-foot-11 centres.

But MacKinnon says there really is no com-parison.

“He’s in a class of his own for sure,” said MacKinnon. “He’s the

best in the world.”At 17-years-old,

MacKinnon is already a veteran of the Canadi-an world junior team and a Quebec Major Ju-nior Hockey League champion. After being selected first overall in the 2011 QMJHL draft, he’s heading into the NHL draft on June 30 as the second-ranked North American skater by NHL Central Scout-ing.

Graham MacKin-non, a Canadian Na-tional Railway worker with a thick red beard, said his son honed his skills the old fashioned way: playing shinny.

“We live on a small lake, and in the winter-

time I used to flood it every day,” said the older MacKinnon. “He was always out shoot-ing pucks down on the lake.

“He was just always competing hard, and just loved the game.”

Starting when Na-than was seven, the MacKinnon’s billeted Mooseheads players Frederick Cabana, who went on to play profes-sional hockey in Ger-many.

“He was with us for two or three years and I got to know him pretty well,” said Nathan MacKinnon. “Being a kid I idolized him, and always wanted to get to this moment.”

MacKinnon deals with budding stardom

Joshua ClippertonCanadian Press

SASKATOON - Na-than MacKinnon says he may never score a bigger goal.

Bold words for a player with a bright NHL future, but fans of the Halifax Mooseheads would probably agree.

MacKinnon had a hat trick, including a ti-tle-clinching goal into an empty net, and Jona-than Drouin had a sub-lime five-assist perfor-mance as Halifax held off a late Portland rally to defeat the Winter-hawks 6-4 in the final of the MasterCard Memo-rial Cup.

Leading 5-2 with under six minutes to go,

the Mooseheads watched as Portland cut it to 5-4 with 1:14 left.

That’s when MacK-innon, a 17-year-old with maturity beyond his years, scored into an empty net to send Hali-fax to its first Canadian Hockey League title.

“I might not score a bigger goal in my life,” said MacKinnon, who added two assists and was named tourna-ment’s most valuable player after scoring a tournament-best seven goals and six assists in four games. “It’s just ... 22 seconds left. We won it. We’re champions.

“The empty netter will be in my mind for-ever.”

After the game, play-ers mingled with family on the ice as a small but vocal group of travelling Mooseheads fans chanted, cheered and banged on the glass in the near-empty Credit Union Centre.

“It’s unbelievable. I grew up in Halifax. I’ve watched this team go through hard times and good times,” MacKin-non added. “After that second period there was a little doubt creep-ing into our mind but at the same time we had a pretty solid third peri-od. They made it close again but it’s all worth it.”

Konrad Abeltshaus-er added two goals and

an assist, while Martin Frk had a goal and two assists for Halifax, which got 40 saves from Zachary Fucale as a team from the QMJHL won the Memorial Cup for the third straight year.

“Right now there’s so much going through my mind,” Fucale said. “It’s that feeling you can’t describe.

Bayern Munich takes Champions League titleMat tias K arenAssociated Press

LONDON - With minutes left to play and the biggest game in club football once again in his hands, Arjen Robben made sure he didn’t miss this time.

Robben found redemption at Wembley Stadium on Saturday, scoring the winner in the 89th minute of the Champions League final to give Bayern a 2-1 victory over German rival Borussia Dort-mund - ending four years of frus-tration for his team in Europe’s biggest tournament and erasing some of the painful memories of his penalty miss in last year’s final.

“I don’t know how many times I dreamed about it,” Robben said. “Everybody I spoke to before the game I said, ‘Today is going to be the night and we’re going to do it.’ To do it in the end is an unbeliev-able feeling.”

This was a win that was long in the making for both Robben and Bayern, not only because of the stubborn challenge from a Dort-

mund side that refused to accept its status as underdog in the club’s biggest game in 16 years. Bayern had lost two of the last three Champions League finals, includ-ing the gut-wrenching defeat in a penalty shootout to Chelsea last year in its own stadium in Munich.

Robben missed a penalty in extra time in that game, a mistake that stung the Bayern fans so much that many temporarily turned against him. This time, when he carried the European Cup toward the thousands of cele-brating red-and-white fans and raised it over his head, there was nothing but undivided adulation in return.

“There are so many emotions, especially after where we came from. Last year was such a disap-pointment,” Robben said. “We’ve spoken about it. The last four years, we’ve been in the final three times. It needed to happen but you still have to do it.”

In a game that featured a slew of chances for both teams, Mario

Mandzukic put Bayern ahead in the 60th minute at Wembley Sta-dium before Ilkay Gundogan lev-elled from the penalty spot eight minutes later, after defender Dante fouled Marco Reus in the area.

Robben had missed two great chances in the first half, reviving memories of last year and even of the 2010 World Cup final, when the winger missed the Nether-lands’ best chance when he came one-on-one with Spain goalkeep-er Iker Casillas and missed.

Even Bayern great Franz Beck-enbauer, the club’s honorary pres-ident, said on TV during halftime that “evidently in the big games he just can’t score.”

But this time, he could.Robben ran onto Franck Rib-

ery’s backheeled flick-on in the area and calmly slotted the ball past goalkeeper Roman Weiden-feller to give Bayern its first Cham-pions League victory since 2001. Bayern lost to Inter Milan in the 2010 final.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Your ability to find out what is going on with others will play out.

Tonight: Get into the moment. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You need to get past someone’s distress. If you feed into it too much, you will get nowhere. Deal with a financial issue head-on. A get-together provides excitement and an opportunity to catch up on others’ news. To-night: With a favorite person at a favorite place.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Others might come on too strong, which could make it dif-ficult to sort through plans. You easily might get so distracted that you can’t accomplish what you want. An older relative could be unpredictable. Let your inner voice guide you. Tonight: Say “yes” to keeping the peace. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You might want to assume more control, but consider the respon-sibilities before you do. Don’t think that you have to jump through any hoops. A visit to the doctor and/or dentist in the near future might be in order. Tonight: Play a sport or go for a walk -- do whatever is best for you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might be stumped, as a friend could throw a boomerang in your path. You’ll see it coming and will be able to avoid it, per-haps to the surprise of many.

You might not realize this initially, but you

will in time. Worry less about the immediate outcome; instead, fo-cus on the long term. What you value now might not be import-ant later. Tonight: As you like it. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Sometimes you need to let life flow more easily. You might not want to get into heavy discus-sions, even though you could be pondering life issues. Lately, your impressions of others have been changing. Avoid making any big decisions right now. Tonight: Not to be found. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Focus on a meeting in which ev-eryone feels free to share more of what is on their minds. Listen to your sixth sense with a pal who might be transforming in front of your eyes. Evaluate news with a more open mind. Wait before acting on a key matter. Tonight: Where the gang is.

Dear Readers: Many of you will be enjoy-ing your Memorial Day weekend with bar-becues and picnics, but we hope you will also remember the purpose behind the ob-servance. Please consider taking the time to visit a veterans hospital or military cemetery and pay your respects. And if you have a flag, it is appropriate to display it at half-staff until noon. “Last Monday in May” by John T. Bird of Birmingham, Ala. We pause to remember those who died with so much courage so much pride. They’ll never come back but memories endure to remind us of freedom: fragile, pure. We’re worthy of their sacrifice if we pause each day not just on the last Monday in May. Dear Annie: My youth sometimes rises but is mostly used up. On my last flight (sever-al years ago), the pilot announced that we might hit some rough weather and that he would leave the “fasten seatbelts” sign on. Eventually, I had an urgent need to use the bathroom. I buzzed the flight attendant, explained my predicament and asked for permission to make the needed trip. She au-thoritatively announced that I would have to wait. I winced and said that really wasn’t an option, and she became hostile that I ques-tioned her authority. I haven’t tracked how many thousands of miles I’ve flown, and I know there’s been a crackdown on people wandering around when the seatbelt sign is on. But it seems to me that having the seatbelt sign on at that time was optional, while having an urgency issue was not. I have not subsequently boarded another airplane. I would not feel comfortable uri-nating on the floor, nor would I appreciate being arrested. The flight attendant probably was only following instructions. Not traveling by plane has saved me a lot of money, to say nothing of countless hours waiting in airports. But how would you have handled that situation? Would you wear dia-pers? Do the airlines expect flight attendants to collect urine bags left on the planes? -- Grounded Dear Grounded: We think you were the vic-tim of an overzealous flight attendant. Even with the seatbelt sign on, passengers are al-lowed to use the bathroom when necessary (although not to stand in line in the aisle). Also, certain inconveniences regarding trav-elers who are already on board have been somewhat relaxed since you last flew. You are unlikely to have this particular problem again. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “N.N.” about her verbally abusive husband. I, too, am the spouse of a constantly critical, con-trolling and emotionally abusive man who thinks all of our relationship’s problems rest solely on my shoulders. Your response was spot-on. Two days ago, after my husband again called me names in a heated rant in front of our children, I decided I’d had enough and told him I wanted a divorce. I finally recognized that suffering through it for our children’s sake wasn’t right for any of us. An unstable and tense home environment can be more detrimental than a broken but hap-py one. Deciding to leave the relationship was difficult, but I look forward to a future not spent walking on eggshells, not feel-ing ashamed in front of my children, living comfortably in my home and giving my kids a calm, stable place to grow up. “N.N.” de-serves respect and someone who truly loves her. -- Better Now Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Dear Wendy:I have been estranged from

my son for about three years, after I made an innocent com-ment to him. It wasn’t said in-tentionally to hurt anyone. However, my daughter-in-law went a little crazy. Since then my son refuses to talk to me I’ve tried to phone him several times. His wife will not let me see my grandchildren.

Can you tell me when I will be able to see my grandchil-dren again?

My nerves are really bad now, Wendy. Can you help me or give me some advice.

Mourning Grandma

Dear Mourning Grandma:Well, don’t feel bad — this

seems to be the rage with some of these children and the way they treat their parents. This also seems to be the rage with grandmas pitted against each other over the grandchildren as well.

The thing is, these types of children feel that they can use their children to have power over the grandparents. In a lot of cases it works very well for these children to finally be able to control their parents by hold-

ing the grandchildren as hos-tages. Well, I for one am livid about this type of insecurity and down right maliciousness these children hold over their parents.

There are also grandmothers competing with other grand-mothers for their grandchil-dren’s affections.

To those types of grand-mothers who only want to be the principal grandmother and shoo the other grandmother out, I say “Get a life, and stop making the grandchildren your only source of enjoyment in your life.”

Didn’t these grandmothers have an identity, or learn to re-gain their identity when they had their own children? These types of grandmothers are fear-ful, weak and insecure and use the grandchildren again as pawns to make their life happy. The same goes for these chil-dren that use their children as

pawns to control the grandpar-ents.

The whole key to this mess is to set your boundaries and if the grandchildren want to see you then that’s the way it’s sup-posed to be. However, these types of people who are using children to fulfill their animos-ities or insecurities are not thinking about what their karma will be like in the future. I say hold your breath because everyone that premeditatedly seeks out to hurt others will get it back ten fold.

I hope it gives you some comfort to realize that there is so much of this going on and you are not the only one living this nightmare. Having said all that let’s clarify some facts in your situation. Your daughter-in-law does not like you. She did not like you when she was dating your son. Your son is in the middle of this war between you and his wife. Your son and his wife do not get along. We feel there is just a bit too much alcohol involved in both of their lives. We do not see them stay-ing married on this plane in this lifetime. My guides feel you will be able to see your grandchil-dren in July of 2013. You will

eventually have a good rela-tionship with some of these grandchildren as they grow older.

I asked my guides if there were any other messages to give you and a female voice from the other side said, “Be patient dear and wait, it will be okay.” She is smiling down on me as she says these words. I don’t feel it’s your mother but I think it’s your grandma; you need you to be in the same room as me. Your grandpa has also come to visit you — he had bad legs the right one in par-ticular was quite painful for him. They want to tell you that there is a baby up there with them and they have the baby. So think if anyone in the family had an abortion or miscarriage. Because that’s the baby they are talking about.

Life is just too darn short to be dictated by children for the remainder of a person’s life. Think of it as a holiday because when these kids come back and start their melodrama again then your vacation is over if you let them back in your life. So think about these things, grand-ma, and may God Bless.

VANCOUVER — Scien-tists at the Vancouver Aquar-ium have sprung into action, as part of an effort to prevent an endangered frog popula-tion from becoming extinct in eastern British Columbia.

The Rocky Mountain pop-ulation of northern leopard frogs plummeted by the mil-lions in the 1970s, and only two populations are now known to exist near Creston, in B.C.’s West Kootenay re-gion.

The aquarium announced Thursday its scientists have, for the first time in Canada, bred the species in an aquar-ium setting and created an assurance — or backup — population.

Dennis Thoney, the aquarium’s director of ani-mal operations, said officials plan to release about 2,000 tadpoles Monday in the Co-lumbia River marshes north of Cranbrook, while main-taining a population at the

aquarium.He said the frogs are ex-

pected to become the third Rocky Mountain population of northern leopard frogs in the province.

“Frogs, in general, are fac-ing probably the largest ex-tinction since the dinosaurs right now,’’ said Thoney. “Of the 6,000 species, a third to more are threatened or en-dangered now.’’

Known by the scientific name Lithobates pipiens, the species is medium sized, green-brown in colour and possesses distinctive dark spots encircled by paler rings that resemble halos.

The frogs possess large hind legs with dark bars and are known for their pale under parts.

From nose to rump, the frogs measure between 5.5 and 10 centimetres, and have a distinctive call described as a “chuckling’’ or “gabbling’’ or even as a hand rubbing against a wet balloon.

Scientists don’t know why

the population plummeted.Suspected causes for the

decline include habitat de-struction, water-quality changes, the introduction of new species like the bull frog, and the spread of a fungus carried by the African clawed frog, which at one time was injected with urine from human females as part of pregnancy testing, said Thoney.

The Committee on the Status of Endangered Wild-life in Canada has listed the population as endangered, and the provincial govern-ment has included it on its red list, which according to the Ministry of Environment means it’s extirpated, endan-gered, or threatened.

“Animal diversity is pre-cious to start with, but it’s also important and all part of

a food web,’’ said Thoney.“And frogs themselves are

pretty important in that they feed on a lot of insects, in-cluding mosquitoes and ev-erything else, and so they help keep those populations under control, but also they get fed upon by a lot of ani-mals also, including various birds, like heron, or various mammals like raccoons.’’

Thoney said aquarium scientists have worked with other species, like the Ore-gon spotted frog, another en-dangered frog, but have been working with northern leop-ard frogs for about four years to create an assurance popu-lation.

“That’s what our expertise is in: maintaining and breed-ing animals and holding ani-mals,’’ he said.

Thoney said the aquari-um has been acquiring a few eggs each year, and this was the first year the frogs reached maturity to breed.

“I think it’s a wonderful opportunity to reintroduce

the northern leopard frog into the Columbia Marshes,’’ said David Hillary of the Koo-tenay Conservation Program.

His organization worked with the regional district and the Columbia Valley Local Conservation Fund to gener-ate seed money for the proj-ect, said Hillary who noted a contractor from Kimberley will release the tadpoles.

The Columbia Marshes are the best-possible site to reintroduce the frogs and will give the amphibians the best opportunity for a viable pop-ulation, he added.

Meantime, the aquarium will keep adults and tadpoles at the aquarium and will try to acquire a few more to maintain genetic diversity, said Thoney, adding the pro-gram is expected to last at least about 10 years.

“It’s not inexpensive,’’ he said, noting the program costs thousands of dollars. “Well, it’s hard to put a price on a species, right?’’

VIMY RIDGE, FRANCE — A group of Canadian soldiers, strug-gling with post traumatic stress, paid a moving visit to Vimy Ridge, in the hope the carnage from one of the country’s most horrific battles will give help bring them com-fort.

Capt. Andrew Rich-ardson says the journey to the site of the historic engagement helps him make sense of his time in Afghanistan.

The names of all

3,598 killed in the April 9, 1917 assault are etched into the stone surface of the soaring monument, but Richardson says he thinks about the ones who went home and picked up the pieces of their shattered lives.

Richardson says he knows how his war expe-riences in Afghanistan shaped him.

He says the fact that most of the soldiers who survived Vimy resumed their lives, likely suffer-ing from post traumatic stress, gives him hope for

his future.Richardson was one

of handful of soldiers, both serving and retired,

who visited the monu-ment today in northeast-ern France.

The visit was brought

about through the sup-port of Wounded War-riors Canada, an organi-zation dedicated to rais-

ing awareness of mental health in the military.

The group’s aim has been to help cover the

gaps in government ser-vices with innovative programs and activities.

Top Ten Reasons to Advertise in a Newspaper

1. Advertise to Reach New Customers.Your market changes constantly. Advertising is tremendously helpful in directing customers to the product and services they need, and helps put you ahead of your competition.

2. Your Competition Isn’t Quitting.You’ve got to advertise to get your share of business or lose it to the stores that do. If you cut back on your advertising, you may forfeit new prospective customers to your competition.

3. Advantage Over Competitors Who Cut Back.A five year survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising during a troubled economy saw sales increase an average of 100%.

4. Continuous Advertising Strengthens Your Image.When people who postpone buying come back to the marketplace, you’ve got a better chance of getting their business if you’ve continued to maintain a solid, reliable image.

5. Direct Advertising is Cost Efficient.Direct has the advantages – demographic and geographic numbers to afford advertisers the best value and exposure for their advertising dollar.

6. Advertise to Generate Traffic.Continuous traffic is the first step toward sales increases and expanding your base of buyers. The more people who contact you, the more possibilities you have to make sales.

7. Advertise to Make More Sales.Advertising works! Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. You’ll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.

8. Advertise Because There is Always Business to Generate.Salespeople are on the payroll. As long as you’re in business, you have overhead and you’ve got to advertise to generate a steady cash flow.

9. Advertise to Keep a Healthy Positive Image.In a troubled economy, rumors and bad news travel fast. Advertising corrects gossip, shoots down false reports and projects positively.

10. Advertise to Maintain Employee Morale.When advertising and promotion are cut, salespeople become less motivated. They may believe the store is cutting back, even going out of business.

Want to reach new customers? We read the newspaper every day, Monday to Friday.

OTTAWA — The penny may be history, but some Canadians suspect the Bank of Canada has been circu-lating a new scent along with its plastic bank notes.

Dozens of people who contacted the bank in the months after the polymer notes first appeared asked about a secret scratch-and-sniff patch that apparently smells like maple syrup.

“I would like to know ... once and for all if these bills are in fact scented, as I do detect a hint of maple when smelling the bill,’’ says a typical email from a per-plexed citizen.

Said another: “They all have a scent which

I’d say smells like maple? Please advise if this is normal?’’

Under the Access to Information Act, The Canadian Press ob-tained a year’s worth of correspondence to the Bank of Canada from or-dinary Canadians about the new currency. Names were withheld to protect privacy.

For the record, bank official Jeremy Harrison says no scent has been added to any of the new bank notes.

The maple mystery was born soon after the first polymer note — the $100 bill — was released in November 2011, and has persisted in cyber-space on YouTube vid-eos, blogs and Tweets.

A few people were so convinced about the fra-grant funds that they ac-

tually complained to bank officials that some of their new plastic notes were odour-free.

“The note ... lost its maple smell,’’ said one writer. “I strongly sug-gest the Bank increases the strength of the ... maple smell.’’

Another correspon-dent asked for an expla-nation after he “could not discern any maple syrup aroma. ... I would very much appreciate if you could confirm or bust this myth.’’

Yet another cited an alleged scratch-and-sniff area on the new $100 bank note: “I could smell the scent once but not all the time. ... I bet a couple friends and can-not find proof, is it just me’’?

One person wrote in French asking for the bank’s confirmation or denial of the maple scent to forestall a nasty family dispute at the dinner table.

“Everyone I asked who’s smelt the bills agree they smell like maple,’’ wrote someone convinced the odour was real.

“So, did the Bank purposely scent them

maple? Or is it just a co-incidence?’’

The Bank of Canada’s repeated denials are un-likely to quash the Myth of the Maple Moola.

A Vancouver woman who creates perfumes said her discerning nose picked up the scent of maple in the very first $100 polymer bills she encountered.

“I didn’t know about this phenomenon until a friend asked me to close my eyes and tell him what I smelled,’’ Monique Sherrett said in an email to The Cana-dian Press.

“Maple syrup.’’Sherrett, who has

created a small collec-tion of Harry Potter-in-spired perfumes or po-tions, says the bills had been freshly removed from the friend’s back pocket.

“I do think heat has something to do with activating the smell. ... Scratching will create some heat friction but my friend’s warm butt is likely the activator.’’

The Bank of Canada initially withheld all of the public correspon-dence about the new polymer bank notes, cit-

Canadians claim new bank notes smell like maple syrup

ing privacy concerns, but recently released a package of material after an investigation by the information com-missioner of Canada.

In dozens of emails and telephone calls, people complained about other aspects of the plastic notes, such as:

— the new bills gen-

erally exclude images of women, whereas the old bills celebrated wom-en’s-rights pioneers and others;

— the notes stick to one another, making them hard to count. The bank says that’s normal for all brand-new bills and will disappear as the currency gets han-dled;

— the stylized maple leaf on the currency rep-resents a Norway Maple, a foreign invasive spe-cies. The bank categori-cally rejects that claim;

— the bills are prone to melting when ex-posed to high heat, such as in a clothes dryer. The bank says its extensive, rigorous testing dis-proves that.

TORONTO — Drug allega-tions that have dogged Toron-to’s mayor for more than a week may have some rivals and observers calling for his resignation, but Rob Ford vowed on Sunday to seek re-election.

On his weekly radio show, Rob Ford said he can’t wait for next year’s municipal race and plans to start campaign-ing as soon as legally possible.

“I’ll be the first putting my name on that ballot,’’ he said

Sunday afternoon.He repeated that the accu-

sations against him are false and bitterly attacked the media for the way the story has been covered, calling them “a bunch of maggots.’’

The Toronto Star and gos-sip website Gawker reported earlier this month that they viewed a cellphone video that appears to show the mayor smoking crack cocaine.

Ford, who hosts the radio show with his brother Coun. Doug Ford, repeated the claim is ridiculous and in-

stead boasted of his record in cutting fat at city hall and said there’s still more he plans to achieve if re-elected.

It’s the first time the broth-ers have put on the show since becoming engulfed in a drug scandal that has attract-ed international media atten-tion and inspired late-night TV jokes.

Some political insiders and pundits have called for the pair to step down, saying the controversy is interfering with city business.

But supporters who are

part of the so-called Ford Na-tion have sided with the brothers and condemned what they consider unfair at-tacks by the media.

Meanwhile, the alleged footage has not surfaced de-spite an effort by Gawker to raise $200,000 dollars to pur-chase it — $176,210 was raised as of Sunday after-noon.

The mayor has said the en-tire incident had taken “a great toll’’ on his family, friends and the people of To-ronto.
