Community Association asks for stable, long-term funding for

noxious weed control

C AROLYN GR [email protected]

The Select Standing

Committee on Finance and Government Ser-vice is travelling the province seeking input on provincial budget deliberations in Sep-tember and October, and stopped in Cran-brook on Monday, September 30

A number of differ-ent organizations pre-sented to the commit-tee seeking to direct some government funding their way. In-

cluded in that group was the Meadowbrook Community Associa-tion, which brought its concerns about under-funding of noxious weed programs in the Regional District of East Kootenay.

Bob Johnstone of the Meadowbrook Community Associa-tion presented to the Committee. Johnstone says that while the government has legis-

lation designating re-sponsibilities for nox-ious weeds, which in-dicates concern, fund-ing for dealing with weeds is being cut.

“Provincial funding for control of noxious weeds in the East Koo-tenay has decreased over the past three years from $469.761.43 in 2011 to $295,000.00 this year,” Johnstone said.

One World Garden

Workshop Thursday

October 3 in Kimberley and

Cranbrook

The fifth workshop in the One World Gar-den Series, The Magic of Perennials, is coming up Thursday, October 4, 10-noon in Kimber-ley and 3-5pm in Cran-brook. Please note the change of timing to daytime, mid-week for this session. We’re planning a very hands-on experience this month, so if English is not your most comfort-able language, it will be easier to follow this workshop.

In The Magic of Pe-rennials we’ll be learn-ing about some of the food-producing peren-nials that grow here, and the care required to prepare for bountiful harvests next year. This is a good time for trans-planting; whether you’re moving things around in your garden or putting in new plants, we’ll go over some tricks to lessen the shock on plants.

The goal of this workshop series is to increase the local ca-

pacity for growing food by offering a place where immigrants or people new to garden-ing can learn more about growing food lo-cally while gaining hands-on experience and exchanging skills with local members of the community.

This is the 5th work-shop in a 6 part series, and it has been really wonderful to share a season of gardening with many participants since June. We’ve been fortunate to have differ-ent guest garden men-tors at each workshop, and this one will be no exception. The wealth

of local knowledge is inspiring and the gar-den is a great place to learn and share, as well as meet new people and get to know our local community gar-dens.

The Kimberley workshop will be held from 10-noon at Com-inco Community Gar-den, located at Comin-co Gardens in townsite and in Cranbrook from 3-5pm at the Public Produce Garden in Eric McKinnon Park.

As part of the Wel-coming Communities project, Columbia Basin Alliance for Liter-acy, Cranbrook Food

Action Committee and Wildsight Kimberley Cranbrook have teamed up to provide these gardening work-shops for free. This project is made possi-ble through funding from the Government of Canada and the Province of British Co-lumbia.

The workshops are free but require regis-tration. To register, in Cranbrook: [email protected] or call (250)427-7981, in Kim-berley: [email protected] or call (250)427-2535 ext 223.

There’s been a change in management at Kimberley’s Overwaitea Store as Ted Murrell moves on to Nelson and Asst. Manager David Burki moves to Cranbrook. The new Operations Manager in Kimberley is Andrew Sanders, who comes to Kimberley after eight years with Overwaitea in Creston.

“As a result, existing infestations are thriving and adjacent areas are being contaminated.”

The Province’s efforts to preserve agricultural capacity and to promote tourism can be seriously impaired if noxious weeds are not controlled, he continued.

The RDEK has a cost sharing program to assist property owners with weed control, and while money shrinks, applica-tions to the program have increased from 32 in 2010 to 63 thus far in 2013.

Johnstone decided to present in person to the committee in hopes of having more of an im-pact.

“Last year our associa-tion made a written sub-mission to this Select Standing Committee re-questing additional pro-vincial funding and ac-tion,” he said. “The result was a reduction in fund-ing for the East Kootenay of close to $175,000; so this year we came in per-son.”

The Meadowbrook Community Association believes a partnership between the provincial government, local gov-ernments, community associations and individ-ual landowners to edu-cate about the threat of

noxious weeds; control noxious weeds; and en-force the legislative re-quirement to address the issue is needed.

To reach those goals, the Association requests stable, long-term funding for noxious weed pro-grams province-wide.

The Select Standing Committee on Finance and Government Ser-vices is an all-party par-

liamentary committee of the Legislative As-sembly of British Co-lumbia. All British Co-lumbians are invited to submit to the com-mittee.

The deadline for submissions is Wednesday, Oct. 16, 2013. The committee will release its report by Friday, Nov. 15, 2013.

VICTORIA – Education Minis-ter Peter Fassbender says boards protesting the cost of a 3.5 per cent raise for school support should have known it was com-ing, but some opted to wait and hope for an NDP government to take over.

Fassbender said in an inter-view that school trustees have been working with the education ministry for months on “savings plans.” They knew the B.C. Liber-al government would not in-crease budgets to cover a raise for workers who haven’t seen one in four years, and have been with-out a contract for more than a year.

“I think there was some hope on the part of some [trustees] that

we would, with our backs to the wall perhaps, come up with addi-tional dollars,” Fasssbender said. “And the other reality, quite hon-estly, was that up until May 14 there was some anticipation that there was going to be a change of government.”

Trustees around the province are grappling with added costs for contracts with 69 union locals representing education assis-tants, bus drivers, custodians and crossing guards.

Union locals and boards of education must all vote to ratify the agreement by December for it to take effect. It includes a one per cent raise retroactive to July 1, another two per cent starting Feb. 1 and 0.5 per cent in May 2014.

Districts calculate costs from

the deal to be more than $2 mil-lion in Vancouver, $700,000 in Chilliwack and proportional amounts in other districts, most of which have already cut ser-vices due to declining enrol-ment.

Fassbender said the support staff settlement meets the gov-ernment’s “cooperative gains” mandate imposed on all public service unions, because CUPE chose to accept a smaller raise and protect its ability to bank sick days.

School support staff and teachers are the last provincial government unions to accept a “cooperative gains” contract. Fassbender and Premier Christy Clark have offered to fund raises for teachers, if they will agree to a long-term settlement.

School boards knew of CUPE costs, minister says

From Page 1Under Dinners At

Home, people can order whatever quan-tity of frozen meal they require, enough for one each day, and reheat the meal them-selves at home. But packages of meals must be picked up from the F.W. Green Home in Cranbrook or the Kimberley Special Care Home.

Volunteers in the Meals On Wheels pro-gram have expressed concerns that Dinners At Home won’t be ap-propriate for some cli-ents, many of whom can’t drive to pick up meals, or can’t reheat meals because they are blind or suffer memory loss.

But according to Interior Health, this doesn’t take into con-sideration other ser-vices the clients have available to them.

“We are working individually with each

individual client or a family contact to en-sure that the supports that they have are available for heating meals. If they need a home support worker to come in and reheat meals and ensure that they are eating regu-larly, then these meals are in their home al-ready and with their likes and dislikes (ca-tered to) as well,” said Laresa Altenhoff, Inte-rior Health East’s area manager for food and nutrition services. Home support work-ers can visit every day if required to reheat the meal, she said.

According to Alten-hoff, Dinners At Home will give clients more choice of meals, meals more often, they can choose what time they eat, and meals will be available to people living outside city lim-its.

“People think that Meals On Wheels is

Interior Health’s new Dinners At Home program provides meals such as this turkey dinner for people to reheat in their microwave or oven for $6.25 per meal.

sustaining people, but three meals a week is really not enough,” she said.

Clients are already making arrangements for meals on the days that Meals On Wheels is not delivered, she went on.

“Right now, they get only three meals a week. So out of 21 meals, if you ate three meals a day, what are clients doing for the rest of the 17 meals? Someone is out shop-ping for them, getting their incidentals, toi-let paper, all those type of things.

“Somewhere there is a support. So we will locate a support so that someone can come and pick up their meals. If there

isn’t anyone, then the volunteer drivers who wanted to do that will come and pick up the meals.”

The meals are pre-pared in Penticton, frozen and transport-ed to the East Koote-nay. Cranbrook and Kimberley are the last cities in the Interior to join Dinners At Home. Its popularity among active seniors led to the program being in-troduced to the Koote-nays in Trail in 2004. Requests from Cres-ton brought it to the East Kootenay in Cres-ton in 2009.

There are 21 meals that clients can choose from when they order, including gluten free and puree options. The meals are slightly

larger in Dinners At Home than they were in Meals On Wheels, but are cheaper at $6.25 per meal, com-pared to $6.50 per meal.

“It also supports clients not just in city limits; it’s for our rural remote areas as well,” said Altenhoff. “Meals On Wheels was re-stricted to city limits for our drivers.”

People who take part in the adult day program at the F.W. Green Home or Kim-berley Special Care Home can have their meal packages trans-ported with them when they take the community bus home.

And while Meals on Wheels had a limit of how many clients it could take on, Dinners At Home is offered to as many people as need it, including peo-ple who are just leav-ing hospital and need a few meals while they get back on their feet.

“There are a lot of positives to this pro-gram, but right now people aren’t aware what we are transi-tioning to because they haven’t experi-enced it,” said Alten-hoff. “The important thing is that we are working with each in-dividual client and as-sessing if they need support, where do they need the support, etcetera.”

Rhetoric means nothing;

MacdonaldPattern of

ignoring needs of seniors: MLA

C AROLYN GR [email protected]

It’s just a bunch of empty rhetoric from the provincial Liberal government about keeping seniors in their homes, says Co-lumbia River Revel-stoke MLA Norm Macdonald on the cancellation of Meals on Wheels by Interior Health.

“Despite rhetoric

about keeping se-niors in their homes, over the past ten years support has changed dramatical-ly, making it more difficult to stay at home,” Macdonald said. “The rhetoric is there but the situa-tion on the ground is very different. It’s part of a pattern where seniors are left in isolation and not given the support they need to remain in their homes.”

SALLY MACDONALDTownsman Staff

Interior Health’s chief of staff was in Cranbrook this week inspecting the site of the new Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at East Kootenay Regional Hospital.

Dr. Robert Halpenny, Chief Executive Officer for the Interi-or Health Authority, walked through the grassy area where the new, state of the art unit will be built.

The $20 million project will consist of a 6,500 square foot ICU with six beds, including equipment. The Kootenay East Regional Hospital District chipped in $8 million for the project, while the B.C. govern-ment will provide the remain-ing $12 million.

About 50 per cent of the project cost will go to upgrad-ing the hospital’s electrical sys-

tem.On Monday, September 30,

Dr. Halpenny toured the site of the ICU, which will be built on two levels to the north of the hospital’s existing footprint.

“It’s terrific. We’ve looked at the site out here. We are in the mock-up stage so that the staff have input into what they are actually going to be working in. That’s exciting for them. We are as close as you can be to being on time,” said Dr. Hal-penny.

He said medical staff have raised several concerns over the current ICU, but it was hard to envisage the problems until he saw the cramped unit himself.

“When we were getting the requests for the new ICU here, having not seen it, it was diffi-cult to read the report. But then as soon as you came in and looked at the ICU, you

said, ‘Now I see the issue,’” said Dr. Halpenny.

“The biggest (concern) was the issues of size. It’s very small, very cramped. When people are in the ICU and they are very sick, and for example if there is a trauma, there are a lot of people around an indi-vidual’s bed. That leads to the person in the next bed being compromised. So we will be looking at a much larger unit with appropriate separation. With that appropriate separa-tion comes improved care spe-cifically related to infections.”

A request for proposals for the ICU is expected to go out in mid-December or early Janu-ary. However, because the electrical work must be care-fully scheduled, it will take 36 to 40 months to complete, meaning the new ICU ward should open in late 2016.

Dr. Halpenny’s visit was not

just to see the ICU; he spent Monday in meetings with staff, physicians, elected officials and hospital foundations and auxiliaries.

“There are a number of dif-ferent reasons for visiting, but I think the biggest one is to meet with the staff and understand what their issues are,” he said.

In 2012, Interior Health re-cruited more physicians than the rest of B.C.’s health author-ities, according to Dr. Halpen-ny.

“So we are doing some good work in that field. But there is a worldwide shortage of primary care physicians specifically and a shortage of general internal medicine spe-cialists as well,” he said, adding that ultrasound technicians are particularly difficult to re-cruit.

Interior Health CEO applauds ICU project

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 2, 2013

Two governments did bold, brave things last week. One of them quit and called a new election even though it had a viable ma-jority in parliament. The other

arrested the leaders of a neo-fascist party on charges of heading a criminal gang. And you can’t help wondering if things would have turned out a lot better if a couple of other govern-ments had had the courage to do the same thing.

Last Saturday, the Tuni-sian government that has been in power since the country’s first free election in 2011 announced that it would resign. Ennahda, the leading party in the ruling coalition, had not tried to im-pose its Islamic values on the whole popu-lation, and it had brought non-Islamic parties into the coalition, but the situation in the country was starting to feel like Egypt. So Ennahda quit.

Like any post-revolutionary govern-ment, Ennahda faced a huge economic challenge, and its inevitable failure to cre-ate enough jobs to meet the expectations of the young had eaten into its popular support. But what really brought it into a confrontation with the secular majority of the population was two assassinations of high-profile opposition leaders.

Nobody thinks that Ennahda was in-volved in the killings of Chokri Belaid last February and Mohammed Brahmi in May (both with the same pistol). At worst, peo-ple think that the government was not se-vere enough in cracking down on the Salafists, Islamist radicals who are widely suspected of responsibility for the mur-

ders.With many of its former voters suffering

from the dire state of the economy, Ennah-da will probably not win the next election (which is to be organised by a caretaker government). But Tunisia will still be a de-mocracy, Ennahda will still be a legal party, and there will not be thousands killed by

the army in the streets. Un-like Egypt.

You can find some ex-cuses for why Egypt stum-bled back into a military dictatorship last July. The Muslim Brotherhood over-played its hand and made secular Egyptians feel that

they were under attack. The army had been running the country for decades, and wanted to protect its many privileges. But if President Mohammed Morsi had had the wisdom to do what Ennahda has done, even at the last moment, Egypt would still be a democracy today.

And now to Greece, where the ruling coalition of centre-right and left-wing par-ties has taken decisive action against Eu-rope’s most violent political movement, the neo-fascist Golden Dawn Party, over the past two weeks. The sweep culminated in an anti-terrorism operation early last Saturday morning in which police stormed the homes of party leader Nikos Michalo-liakos and five other Golden Dawn mem-bers of parliament.

Only three years ago Golden Dawn was a tiny fringe party that ranted about “sub-human foreigners” stealing Greek jobs and polluting the Greek gene pool, and got less than 1 percent of the vote in the 2010 elec-tion. Then came the debt crisis that has

plunged Greece into poverty – and in last year’s election it got 7 percent of the vote.

Waving Greek flags and the party’s logo (which looks quite like a swastika), Golden Dawn’s bully-boys took over the streets, attacking immigrants, gays and leftists. It had the support of some senior police offi-cers, and its members were arming them-selves for some final confrontation. But Prime Minister Antonis Samaras’s govern-ment moved first.

Golden Dawn’s members openly ad-mire Adolf Hitler, but the only reason they even know his name is that the German state failed to take similar action against his National Socialist (Nazi) party in the last years before Hitler took power in 1933.

Like Golden Dawn, the Nazis’ share of the national vote jumped sevenfold after the onset of the economic crisis in 1929. but they were still a small minority in Ger-many, and their violence against their op-ponents and the Jews gave the state ample reason to act against them.

It didn’t, and as Germany’s economic situation worsened the Nazis’ support grew further. In the 1933 election they got one-third of the vote, and Hitler was ap-pointed Chancellor. That was the end of German democracy and much else be-sides.

Greece is not a great power, so what happens there matters much less, but without this prompt action it could have ended up the same way. It’s a lot easier to be wise after the fact, but it is the job of politicians to be wise before the fact. Some pass the test; others do not.

TRE VOR CR AWLEYSports Editor

If you noticed a new face on the bench with the Kootenay Ice this weekend, that’s because there was one.

Joining head coach Ryan McGill and his as-sistant, Jay Henderson, was Mike Dyck, who will lend his support to the franchise when Mc-Gill takes off with Team Canada for the World Juniors at Christmas.

Dyck, a former WHL coach with the Leth-bridge Hurricanes and Vancouver Giants, has been out of the league since 2009, but jumped at the chance to join the Ice and help out.

Dyck, a native of Le-thbridge, will make the trip down to Cranbrook

once a month leading up to Christmas, where he will be around full-time during McGill’s ab-sence.

He was present during Ice training camp and had a chance to check out the talent on the roster.

“I think, coming in, I knew that the team ob-viously had a strong sec-ond half last year with a young team, and I was impressed with how close everybody is, the character of the group,” said Dyck.

“We got a real good group of guys here and obviously, it’s easy to come in when you have solid leadership at the top. It’s an easy situation to come into.”

Dyck was an assis-

tant coach in Lethbridge for four years, before taking on the same role with the Vancouver Gi-ants for another three. He returned to the Hur-ricanes in 2005 to lead as head coach for three seasons, taking his squad to the WHL finals in 2008.

Dyck and McGill began talking in the summer, when the latter found out he was part of Team Canada’s coach-

ing staff.“It really wasn’t that

difficult a decision for me,” Dyck said. “I had to clear it with my family, but it’s a great opportu-nity for me to get back into the Western Hock-ey League again, and at the same time, I don’t have to move my family or sacrifice what I’ve got in Lethbridge right now.”

McGill and Dyck have history, playing against each other in major-junior in the 1980s and later coach-ing against each other, when Dyck was an as-sistant in Lethbridge and McGill was coach-ing the Ice in Edmonton and Cranbrook in his first tenure.

“We’ve got some his-

tory together, got some similar values and simi-lar ways to play the game so I think this weekend was a real good indication of how all three of us are going to work as a staff and I’m really happy with how it went,” McGill said, after Kootenay wrapped up training camp at the beginning of September.

Dyck has remained in Lethbridge while raising a family, but has kept his foot in the game at the minor hockey and elite levels. He coached Sam Reinhart and Jae-don Descheneau at the 2012 World U-17 Hock-ey Challenge and will helm Team Alberta for the 2015 Canada Winter Games.

Yankees want manager Joe Girardi backRONALD BLUMAssociated Press

NEW YORK - If anything, the Yankees like Joe Girardi even more now than when they hired him to manage the team six years ago.

General manager Brian Cashman praised Girardi’s handling of the team during a disappointing season and is about to offer him a new con-tract.

“He knows we’d like to have him stay and continue as man-ager of the New York Yankees as we move forward,” Cashman

said Tuesday. “I feel we hired a good one. He’s been a world champion player for us. He’s been a coach, a broadcaster and obviously a world champi-on manager. So we’ve benefited from having him and we’d like to do that going forward, but we’ll have to speak with him and see how it plays out.”

Girardi has led the Yankees to a 564-408 record and a World Series title. Crippled by injuries, New York had its poorest sea-son since 1992, missing the playoffs for the second time in 19 years and finishing tied for

third in the AL East at 85-77.Cashman met Girardi for

coffee on Monday, a day after New York’s season ended, and plans to have lunch Wednesday in New York with Girardi’s agent, Steve Mandell.

“We’re entering the sensitive conversations that will either lead to a deal or lead us to the understanding that there won’t be a deal,” Cashman said.

Girardi won out over Don Mattingly to replace Joe Torre after the 2007 season and was given a $7.8 million, three-year contract. He is completing a $9

million, three-year deal.The Chicago Cubs may be

interested in Girardi after firing manager Dale Sveum. Girardi grew up in Illinois, went to Northwestern and played for the Cubs. But Girardi is under contract through October, and Cashman wouldn’t say whether he would give the Cubs permis-sion to speak with the manager.

“I think he likes it here,” Cashman said. “We’re going to give him a real good reason to stay, and he’s earned that through his six years with us so far.”

Kessel, Leafs agree to eight-year extension worth $64MTORONTO - The Toronto Maple Leafs are locking up

star forward Phil Kessel to a long-term contract exten-sion.

A source tells The Canadian Press that the two sides have agreed to terms on an eight-year extension worth US$64 million.

Kessel had 20 goals and 32 assists for the Maple Leafs over last season’s 48-game schedule.

He has 379 points (185-194) in 504 regular-season games over seven seasons with Toronto and Boston.

The 26-year-old right-winger was drafted by the Bru-ins with the fifth overall pick in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft.

Hoping for a cure.

Breast cancer is the second most common cancer among women, second only to lung cancer. One in eight women is expected to develop breast cancer in her lifetime, and a recent survey by the Society for Women’s Health Research found that 22 percent of women named breast cancer as the disease they fear most. The specter of breast cancer makes it no surprise that women are eager to seek various ways to reduce their risks of developing this potentially deadly disease.

Though cancer treatments continue to evolve, there remains no cure for breast cancer or any other types of cancer. However, there are steps men and women can take to reduce their risks of developing breast cancer. In fact, the National Cancer Institute says avoiding breast cancer risk factors is the best path to prevention.

* Avoid exposure to radiation. Repeated exposure to radiation therapy used to treat illnesses like Hodgkin’s disease can increase a person’s risk of breast cancer, particularly if treatments begin at an early age.

* Keep a healthy weight. Obesity increases the risk of breast cancer, particularly

in postmenopausal women. Healthy eating and exercise can help women control their weight while reducing their risks of developing breast cancer and a number of other diseases. Scientists at The Mayo Clinic believe there is a link between estrogen production in fatty breast tissue and breast cancer.

* Get your exercise. Exercising four or more hours a week can lower breast cancer risk. Exercise need not be heavy lifting at the gym. Any moderate physical activity, from cycling to walking, can be effective. Exercise decreases hormone levels in the body that can impact breast cancer risk. Some studies indicate simply walking briskly for one to three hours per week can reduce a woman’s breast cancer risk by 18 percent.

* Eat a low-fat diet. The Women’s Intervention Nutrition Study from the National Cancer Institute found that the highest rate of breast cancer reduction was among a group of women who ate

a low-fat diet.

* Reduce alcohol consumption. Various studies have indicated that women who drink alcoholic beverages may develop cancer at a higher rate. Women who consume two to five drinks daily have a greater risk of developing breast cancer than those who abstain from alcohol.

* Weigh the risks of hormone replacement therapy. There are mixed reviews on hormone replacement therapy, or HRT, for postmenopausal women. There may be a link between long-term HRT and breast cancer, particularly when estrogen and progesterone are used in combination. Some doctors advise estrogen-only hormone therapy for women who have had a hysterectomy.

* Use of SERMs and aromatase inhibitors. Selective estrogen receptor modulators, or SERMs, are drugs that act like estrogen on some bodily tissues but block the effect of estrogen on other tissues. Aromatase inhibitors decrease the amount of estrogen made by the body. Women with a high risk of breast cancer may benefit from taking a SERM or aromatase inhibitor.

Let’s fight to find a cure.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You might not be comfortable with everything you need to do. You know that the only way to get it all done is to dive right in and get going. You will be delighted at how quickly your to-do list dissolves. A discussion with a boss might be necessary. Tonight: Join a friend for fun. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You’ll observe as someone con-tinues to encounter obstacles -- one right after the other. Trying to pitch in and/or make a suggestion might be helpful to this person. Use your creativity in order to make your day easier. Tonight: Remain responsive to a loved one at a distance. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You’ll want to see a situation with more insight and under-standing; however, you might be stuck watching the same mental reruns over and over again. Open up to a new way of thinking; you will get a better grasp on what is motivating someone else. To-night: Easy works.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You have a chance to open up to new people and new attitudes. Be willing to turn a situation around and see it differently. Your input could be most helpful to a close associate or loved one, as it could helping this person see what has been hidden. To-night: Relax. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You might be wondering when you should say that enough is enough. Someone close to you keeps taking advantage of your generosity. Be prepared for this person to have a surprised re-action when you finally decide to say “no.” Maintain a sense of humor. Tonight: Order in. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You will be in your element, and you might feel as if you are able to make a difference. Your creativity spins a new solution for a child or friend. Resist trying to control a situation. A call or interaction with a neighbor or close associate could be touchy. Tonight: Just be yourself. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Recognize what is happening

behind the scenes with a friend or loved one. Sometimes the most supportive action is not acknowledging what is happen-ing, but rather letting this person handle the issue on his or her own. Use care with your funds. Tonight: Get some extra R and R. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) If you feel the impulse to take the lead, and you know full well that you have the support of the majority, do. You need to carry this issue or situation to comple-tion. Recognize what is possible. A discussion will draw in positive results. Tonight: Ask, and you shall receive. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You have a way of helping others that allows them to see a contro-versial idea in a manner in which they can accept it. You could be in a position to make a big change, as long as you get the right sup-port. If you’re feeling insecure, pull back. Tonight: Could go to the wee hours. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Detach before deciding whether you can go along with a group decision. You’ll want to zero in

on the most efficient and func-tional way to proceed. You can decide to convince others that you might have a better path to the same end. Tonight: Opt for something different. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Listen carefully to news that seems out of the norm. Perhaps the person who is delivering the message might not be empha-sizing the right points. Reach out to the original source in order to find the truth. Ask questions, if need be. Tonight: Visit with a favorite person. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Defer to others, and make a dif-ference that counts. You might be stopped by someone who cares about the same cause, but he or she might not have the same vision as you. A meeting easily could transform into a fun get-together. Let it happen. Tonight: Go where the action is. BORN TODAY Musician Sting (1951), spiritual and political leader Mohandas Gandhi (1861), fashion designer Donna Karan (1948) ***

Dear Annie: I recently became engaged to my boyfriend of four years. Immediately af-ter he proposed, I phoned my parents, who always gave the impression that they liked my boyfriend and enjoyed spending time with him. I thought they’d be happy for us. I was very wrong. My mom was really angry and said that I am “way too young” to be getting married. Annie, I’m in graduate school. My dad said that my boyfriend “isn’t good enough” and that I should “seriously reconsider this guy.” (This guy! Like he doesn’t have a name.) I am still in school, so perhaps this is their way of expressing their worry that if I get married I won’t finish my graduate program, but regardless, I’m really hurt by their re-action. I’ve tried reassuring them, but they keep brushing me aside, insisting I’m mar-rying too young and to the wrong man. I cannot figure out their problem. We are in our late 20s, which doesn’t strike me as “too young.” And if they truly believe my fiance isn’t the right person, why didn’t they say so in the intervening four years? Why won’t they give me any concrete reasons for their objections? Sometimes I think what they’re really objecting to is the presence of another person in our small, close-knit family. But it seems selfish of them to place the current family dynamic over my future marriage and happiness. Kids grow up. They get married. I never in my wildest nightmares thought my engagement would be such a source of anger. What do you think about this? -- Sad Bride-To-Be Dear Sad: It does seem as though your par-ents suddenly realized that you are leaving the nest and they are panic stricken. Since they refuse to discuss their reasons with you, please ask a trusted friend or family member to intercede on your behalf and try to ascer-tain whether their objections have any jus-tification. But ultimately, the decision about marriage belongs to you. We hope your par-ents will welcome your groom into the fami-ly instead of pushing you both away. Dear Annie: I am 84 and have five children, 10 grandchildren and 18 great-grandchil-dren. I am twice widowed, and one of my boyfriends also died. I now have a new boyfriend. He is upset with two of my daughters-in-law and a son-in-law because when they see me they say, “Hello, Mother-in-Law!” He says they are being disrespectful for not using my name. He says they should call me “Grandma” or “Mom” or my given name. This has caused a problem between us. What do you think? -- J.G. Dear J.G.: Your boyfriend has no business issuing orders about how your children or their spouses address you. If it doesn’t both-er you, it shouldn’t bother him. He sounds bossy and controlling. Tell him to back off. Dear Annie: “Phone Me,” the 28-year-old who did not find out about her high school reunion because she isn’t on social media, needs to be proactive. Don’t blame others because you didn’t seek out the information. If you know it is the 10th year of your grad-uation, contact the school or ex-classmates and find out whether anything is planned. I have been on every reunion committee since I graduated in 1979. We do the best we can to contact people. However, it gets expensive sending out invitations by regular mail. Word of mouth and seeking out the in-formation is key. So perhaps in anticipation of the next reunion, “Phone Me” could make the effort to find out instead of being “left out.” -- Mary in Ventura, Calif.

VANCOUVER — A group of tree planters originally from Afri-ca found living in deplorable con-ditions in a Golden, B.C., camp endured slave-like conditions be-cause their employers discrimi-nated against black people, a B.C. Human Rights Tribunal heard.

Lawyer Sarah Khan told the tribunal on Monday that the workplace, operated by Khaira Enterprises Ltd., was divided along racial lines. Black workers were forced to work on harder terrain than non-black employ-ees, and the latter were given dif-ferential treatment, she said.

Khan is representing 50 tree planters, many of whom were im-migrants or refugees, and who she said were subjected to “ex-treme racial harassment,’’ includ-ing racial slurs, verbal abuse, and mockery that were “consistent with slavery and anti-black racial segregation.’’

Khan also alleged that the workers lived in squalid condi-tions. They were given under cooked or expired food to eat, and were forced to drink untreat-ed water from nearby streams and rivers. At night, they slept on dirty mattresses in a cramped storage container with no ventila-tion and inadequate showers, she said.

They were also expected to work with few breaks in between, and were given little or no pay, Khan said.

“It made the workers realize their experiences as refugees are not over,’’ she told Norman Tre-rise, who is presiding over the tribunal hearing. “They also felt unwelcomed in Canada, and they were not valued for their work or as human beings.’’

The camp in Golden, in south-east B.C., was shut down by B.C.’s Ministry of Forests in July 2010, when ministry staff discovered the tree planters, and were told that they had not had anything to

eat for two days, the tribunal heard.

After the camp was disband-ed, many of the workers suffered financial difficulties because of the lack of wages, said Khan.

“Some became homeless for a period of time, many did not have enough money to purchase food and basic necessities of life,’’ she said. “Some weren’t able to sup-port their wives and children.’’

Several investigations of Khai-ra, which does reforestation as well as other silviculture work, were launched by various agen-cies.

The province’s Employment Standards Branch ordered the company to repay $260,000 in wages in 2011, but Khan said that not all of the wages have been paid.

The tribunal, scheduled for five weeks, is expected to hear testimony from several of the tree planters.

Moka Balikama, who filed the human rights complaint on be-half of all the black workers, told the tribunal on Monday that he came from the Congo to Canada as a refugee in 2008, and worked for Khaira in Revelstoke and Golden from June to July in 2010.

He had become a permanent resident by then, and he decided to move from Winnipeg to B.C. because he had heard that tree planting was a fast way to make more money — something he needed to help his sick father in Africa, he said.

The 38-year-old, who now lives in Calgary, said through a Swahili translator that he worked 10 to 12 hours, seven days a week that summer. He also lived with other tree planters in what he believed was a “cargo container’’ attached to his boss’s truck.

He also said he was never paid on time, and that the cost of food and accommodations were de-ducted from his paycheques even though that issue was never dis-cussed with him before.

According to documents that Khan submitted as evidence, the Employment Standards Branch found that the deductions were not authorized, and Khaira owed Balikama several thousand dol-lars more than what the company paid him.

Khalid Bajwa and Hardilpreet Sidhu, the firm’s owners, have denied the allegations of mis-treatment and discrimination.

Bajwa told the tribunal that Khaira has hired seasonal tree planters for years, and many of the workers found in the camp had worked for him in previous seasons.

The company has never had complaints from workers, and its camps have always passed in-spections from WorkSafeBC, he said.

In 2010, as in previous years, his tree planters were hired to work in various areas of B.C., in-cluding Texada Island, Powell River, Kamloops, Revelstoke and Golden, said Bajwa. He said the majority of workers were of Afri-can origin, but there were also South Asian and white workers, and everyone was treated well.

“We are very friendly, they work very good with me, we never had any problems,’’ he said. “Whenever I need more workers, I ask them, ‘So can you bring some more guys?’, and they bring more guys to work in the compa-ny.’’

Bajwa said he has promoted several black workers to manage-rial positions before, and he questions how he could be per-ceived as a boss who degrades and racially discriminates against his workers if many happily come back to work for him every year.

Sidhu, who also spoke at Mon-day’s hearing, said he has been very hurt by the allegations be-cause he treated the workers like his friends.

Allegations of sexual harass-ment against one female worker were also presented on Monday.

Tree planters endured slave-like conditions, lawyers tells rights body

C anadian Press

TORONTO — A group of nota-ble Canadian women is launch-ing a campaign for gender-neu-tral language in the English lyrics of O Canada.

The group says the change would restore Canada’s English national anthem to its original gender-neutral intentions.

The group — which includes author Margaret Atwood and for-mer prime minister Kim Camp-bell — has set up a website to promote the idea.

It is calling on Canadians to join the campaign and encourage

Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s government to change the line “in all thy sons command’’ to “in all of us command.’’

RestoreOurAnthem.ca is being launched on the 100th an-niversary of the change made to Judge Robert Stanley Weir’s origi-nal English lyrics.

The coalition says for no docu-mented reason the lyrics were revised in 1913 from “thou dost in us command’’ to “in all thy sons command’’ and that it is time to make a change to reflect the in-clusive intentions of the original lyrics.

Other members of the group include Senator Nancy Ruth, re-tired senator, author and fashion designer Vivienne Poy and Sally Goddard, mother of Nichola Goddard, the first female Canadi-an soldier killed in combat.

“The words ‘All thy sons com-mand’ in the English national an-them suggests that only male loy-alty is being invoked,’’ said At-wood.

“Restoring these lyrics to gen-der-neutral is not only an easy fix to make our anthem inclusive for all Canadians, but it’s also long overdue.’’
