Creeping groundwater
believed a threat to
homes near Penticton
Local state of emergency
declared at community
of 350 homes over rising
level of Okanagan Lake
By JOE FRIES
Penticton Herald
A new concern has emerged just north of
Penticton at Red Wing Resorts, where a local
state of emergency was declared Tuesday
night.
Besides the obvious threat from a swollen
Okanagan Lake, officials are also worried
about the migration of groundwater under-
neath the community of 350 homes.
Dale Kronebusch, emergency services
supervisor for the Regional District of
Okanagan-Similkameen, said the lake’s pro-
jected crest of 343.5 metre above sea level is
about the same height as land at the base of
the silt bluffs on the western edge of the
resort.
If groundwater spreads that far and under-
mines the bluffs, they could crumble and
damage houses above and below, he
explained.
Kronebusch said a geotechnical engineer
was expected on site Wednesday to assess
the situation, which could take weeks to
unfold.
In the meantime, the threat from wave
action on Okanagan Lake is being mitigated
by sandbag defences along the community’s
waterfront.
“I believe that once we get (the sandbag
wall) designed and built to the standard we
want it to that the water won’t come in,” said
Kronebusch.
“But I’m not so sure on the water table
because it can accumulate the water on the
back of (the dam) and start flowing from that
side.”
The emergency declaration, issued jointly
by the RDOS and Penticton Indian band, on
whose reserve much of Red Wing is located,
will allow groundwater monitoring experts
to set up on site and take whatever steps are
necessary to mitigate the threat to the com-
munity.
Kronebusch said crews are also re-evalu-
ating the situation in Naramata to assess if
sandbag walls are high enough there and
make any adjustments needed.
Across the water in Penticton, crews are
continually tinkering with defences to guard
against Okanagan Lake, which has risen lit-
tle since the weekend.
“We’re just adapting all our protection
daily to what the risk is. The water is ris-
ing slowly, so we keep adapting our infra-

Rylee McDonald prepares a sandbag for

structure to that,” said city manager Peter
Weeber.
The area of greatest concern is the
Penticton Yacht Club and Marina, where the
lake is expected to overtake a temporary dam
and flood the parking lot.
“But they’ve already over the weekend
built a fallback position for spillage into the
parking lot to protect the main building,”
Weeber added.
Some infrastructure around the Penticton
Lakeside Resort, such as a pump station, boat
rental office and walking pier, is also under
threat, but Weeber said damage won’t be
assessed until the lake recedes.
He estimates the city’s flood response to
date has cost $500,000, which will be reim-
bursed by Emergency Management BC.
There was no cost Wednesday for dozens
of students from Penticton Secondary School
who volunteered their time on the sandbag
brigade at Red Wing.
Rylee McDonald, whose Grade 10 gym class
lent its services to the flood-stricken commu-
nity for people age 40 and up, said she found
the work gratifying.
“These people might not be able to do it for
themselves,” McDonald explained.
Red Wing manager Don Kelly said he
appreciated the help, and he described the
mood of residents as “anxious.”
“I think we’re pretty well-protected (from
the lake) now,” he said. “It’s the winds that
will kill us.”
As of noon Wednesday, the lake level was
hovering around 343.25 metres, virtually
unchanged from the same time Sunday,
according to Environment Canada data.
Last week, the District of Summerland
declared local states of emergency in two
parts of that community due to groundwater
overtaking electrical equipment.

Okanagan Lake.
Shaun Reimer In each of the past
five weeks, the flow of
water into the lake has averaged 100 million cubic
metres.
“Our inflow into Okanagan Lake has been higher
than we’ve ever seen before,” Reimer said.
Put another way, water from creeks that flow
into the lake would have raised its level by 169 cm
if not for the ability of the drainage system to draw
down the lake by 55 cm.
So the lake has climbed by 114 cm over the past
five weeks, a rise over a period of time that Reimer
said was unprecedented. The rush of water was
caused by a combination of a late-season snowmelt
and a rainy spring, Reimer said.
From March through May, total flows into
Okanagan Lake were 2 1/2 times the normal
amount for the period, said Dave Campbell of the
B.C. River Forecast Centre.
Kalamalka Lake had an elevation Wednesday of
392.44 metres above sea level, which is down from
recent measurements. There’s little snow left in
the mountains that feed Kalamalka Lake, and sig-
nificant declines in its elevation are expected in
the next few weeks.
Across the Central Okanagan, however, flood
protection measures remain in place or are even
being fortified at several locations. The lake has a
predicted maximum elevation of 343.5 metres
above sea level, expected to occur around June 17.
In Peachland, a 1.7-kilometre bladder dam was to
be installed along Beach Avenue, where basements
and crawl spaces in some homes and businesses
have been flooded.

TRANSPORTATION
New owner for NewLeaf
Flight vendor taken
over by charter airline
Flair Airlines
By Daily Courier Staff
Kelowna-based Flair Airlines
Ltd., the charter carrier operating
the flights behind NewLeaf’s low-
price tickets, has become a nation-
al airline after buying out the tick-
et vendor.
Flair announced Wednesday it
had completed the purchase of all
NewLeaf’s assets, and was lauding
itself as “Canada’s third national
airline.”
While Flair is based in Kelowna,
NewLeaf currently doesn’t offer
any service out of the local airport.
“But Kelowna is our home and
we think a lot of Kelowna, so we
hope Kelowna will be in our future
plans,” said Flair vice-president of
operations Chris Lapointe.
NewLeaf’s summer schedule in-
cludes flights between Abbotsford,
Edmonton, Winnipeg, Hamilton
and Halifax.
When it launched in mid-2016,
NewLeaf offered short-lived service
between Kelowna and Edmonton,
Regina, Saskatoon and Winnipeg.
Those routes, and others, were
discontinued as the startup strug-
gled with schedules and logistics.
Flair has been the operator for
all flights sold by NewLeaf. The
company’s fleet consists of five
Boeing 737-400s, each of which
holds 156 economy seats.
Until now, Flair has been a char-
ter airline doing work for the mil-
itary, sports teams, flying workers
from Calgary and Edmonton to the
oilsands for Shell and flying for Air
Transat from Kelowna, Calgary,

Flair Airlines, the operator for flights sold by NewLeaf, is now also NewLeaf’s owner.
Edmonton and Vancouver to
Mexico.
Flair will continue this charter
work and continue to operate
flights under the NewLeaf banner.
However, the expectation is that,
come fall, both divisions will be
known as Flair.
“This announcement makes it of-
ficially a national scheduled air-
line,” explained spokeswoman
Julie Remple. “There are many re-
gional or charter airlines, but only
two other major carriers existed in
Canada prior to today.”
According to a media release is-
sued Wednesday morning, “the
purchase of NewLeaf’s assets estab-
lishes Flair’s new position as a low-
fare national airline in Canada.”
“The combination of NewLeaf’s
marketing, selling and distribu-
tion engine along with Flair’s avi-
ation expertise will continue to
provide Canadians with the most
affordable air travel options avail-
able,” read the media release.
NewLeaf began selling “ultra-low
airfares” for flights in smaller air-
ports across Canada. As part of its
introductory offer last year, some
flights were sold for as low as $19,
while prices typically ranged be-
tween $60 to $100.
Earlier this year, the Consumers’
Association of Canada had issued
a travel alert for NewLeaf and
Flair Air flights, following a num-
ber of “arbitrary cancellations and
alterations to flight dates and
times on thousands of tickets.”
“It is extremely important that
prospective buyers of NewLeaf
tickets have an alternative plan to
reach their chosen destinations
and return home on time,” read
the alert. “Buyers of NewLeaf tick-
ets should be asking themselves
the question ‘Does the saving of
buying cheap tickets warrant the
risk of being stranded?’”
According to a statement by Flair
president and CEO Jim Rogers,
new destinations are being plotted
and will be announced later this
year.
Kelowna may or may not be on
those schedules.
“As with all important business
decisions, we will work closely
with our partners, employees and
customers to make the integration
process as smooth as possible,”
said Rogers.
At the beginning of the year,
NewLeaf also announced it was
cancelling its Arizona and Florida
offerings due to competition from
other major carriers travelling the
same routes.

DEFENCE COMMUNITY

$62B more for military

Extra cash promised
over next 20 years
as part of update
to defence policy
By The Canadian Press
OTTAWA — The Trudeau gov-
ernment committed Wednesday to
spend $62 billion more over the
next two decades for a major
expansion of the Canadian Armed
Forces, aimed at ensuring it can
properly defend the country in an
increasingly unstable world.
But much of the money won’t
flow until after the next election,
and Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan
refused to entertain the question
of whether the spending spike
would mean bigger federal deficits
or spending cuts in other areas.
The promised new cash is the
cornerstone of the government’s
long-awaited defence policy
update, which Sajjan unveiled to
much fanfare at the Cartier Square
Drill Hall in Ottawa.
“If we’re serious about our role in
the world, we must be serious about
funding our military,” he told a
news conference attended by dozens
of uniformed military personnel.
“And we are.”
That cash will be essential for the
ambitious, 20-year vision laid out
in the new policy document, which
includes old standbys such as work-
ing with the U.S. to defend North
America, saving Canadians in dis-
tress and working with NATO
allies to confront threats abroad.
But the plan also calls for adding
various military capabilities, such
as the ability to conduct offensive
cyberattacks, the purchase of armed
drones and the addition of 5,000
more full- and part-time troops.
At the same time, the review also
acknowledged significant short-
falls to date in terms of supporting
ill and injured soldiers, as well as
the amount of money that has
already been set aside for major
procurement projects.
For example, while the previous
government planned to spend

frigates and destroyers, the actual
cost will be closer to $60 billion, the
review says.
Underpinning everything is the
reality — spelled out in a major
policy speech Tuesday by Foreign
Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland
— that Canada can no longer rely
on the U.S. for its defence to the
same extent it has in the past.
While some of the new money
will start flowing this year, the
taps aren’t expected to really open
until 2020-21 — well after the next
election, and a veritable lifetime in
political Ottawa.
Officials speaking on background
said the delay was unavoidable
because of the amount of time
needed to buy new warships, fighter
jets and other major equipment.
But it immediately raised con-
cerns among the opposition
Conservatives, as well as some
defence analysts, about future
spending cuts, which is what hap-
pened to Canada’s last defence
policy.
1-year delay MPs hear allegations
“This is a book of empty prom-
ises,” said Tory defence critic
James Bezan, whose party
released a defence policy while in
government in 2008 but raided it a
few years later to eliminate the
deficit.
“All this spending has been
punted down the road until we see
any increases after the last elec-
tion. And of course the government
can change its mind.”
Sajjan shrugged off such con-
cerns, saying the current as well
as future governments “owe it” to
those in uniform to “fully fund the
Canadian Armed Forces on a long-
term footing. And that’s what we
have done.”
There were also unanswered
questions about where the
Liberal government — already
staring at a deficit projected at
$23 billion for 2016-17 — will actu-
ally find the money to make good
on its promises.
Officials say the money for the
first five years has already been
included in the government’s cur-
rent fiscal plan, but that decisions
will need to be made over the
longer term.
For his part, Sajjan would only
say that the Liberals’ defence pol-
icy had been “rigorously costed”
and was “fully funded,” before
emphasizing what he described as
good news for the military.
The plan sparked immediate
praise from NATO secretary gen-
eral Jens Stoltenberg, who has pre-
viously joined U.S. President
Donald Trump in calling for all
allies to spend more on their
militaries.
“This new policy affirms
Canada’s unwavering commitment
to NATO and will ensure Canada
has the armed forces and key capa-
bilities that the alliance needs,”
Stoltenberg said in a statement.
“In these challenging times,
Canada’s commitment to the
alliance is important as we work
to keep our nations safe and NATO
strong.”

KAMLOOPS — The first Pride parade in Kamloops
is planned for this summer.
Parade president Kirstin McLaughlin says the event
is intended not only for those who want to march, but
also for people or businesses who want to set up a
booth at a festival that will accompany the parade.
She says first priority will go to groups working with
the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transsexual, transgendered,

will also be considered.
The event is scheduled for Aug. 20.
$10-a-day daycare still on
VANCOUVER — NDP Leader John Horgan says he
will stick to his campaign promise of $10-a-day child
care in British Columbia after signing an agreement
with the Green party to oust Christy Clark’s Liberals.
Horgan campaigned on the commitment, but the
pact signed with Green Leader Andrew Weaver was
less specific, saying only that a New Democrat gov-
ernment would expand spaces, increase affordabil-
ity and ensure child care is accessible.
Asked Wednesday which child-care platform B.C.
parents would see if he is premier — the NDP’s or

Democrats’ platform.
His government would create 22,000 new child-care

spaces in five years, he said.

ISIL attacks Iran’s parliament

By The Associated Press
TEHRAN, Iran — The Islamic State group
claimed responsibility Wednesday for a pair
of stunning attacks on Iran’s parliament and
the tomb of its revolutionary leader,
Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, which killed
at least 12 people and wounded more than 40.
Tehran Police Chief Gen. Hossein Sajedinia
announced late Wednesday night that five
suspects had been detained for interrogation,
according to a report in the semi-official
ISNA news agency. Sajedinia did not offer
any further details.
Reza Seifollahi, an official in the country’s
Supreme National Security Council, was
quoted by the independent Shargh daily as
saying the perpetrators of the attacks were
Iranian nationals. He did not elaborate.
The bloodshed shocked the country and
came as emboldened Sunni Arab states —
backed by U.S. President Donald Trump —
are hardening their stance against Shiite-
ruled Iran.
The White House released a statement from
Trump condemning the terrorist attacks in
Tehran and offering condolences, but also
implying that Iran is itself a sponsor of ter-
rorism.
“We grieve and pray for the innocent vic-
tims of the terrorist attacks in Iran, and for
the Iranian people, who are going through
such challenging times,” the statement said.
“We underscore that states that sponsor ter-
rorism risk falling victim to the evil they pro-
mote.”
In recent years, Tehran has been involved
in conflicts in Syria and Iraq against the
Islamic State, but had remained untouched
by IS violence. Iran has also battled Saudi-
backed Sunni groups in both countries.
Iran’s powerful Revolutionary Guard indi-
rectly blamed Saudi Arabia for the attacks. A
statement issued Wednesday evening stopped
short of alleging direct Saudi involvement
but called it “meaningful” that the attacks
followed Trump’s visit to Saudi Arabia,
where he strongly asserted Washington’s
support for Riyadh.
The statement said Saudi Arabia “con-
stantly supports” terrorists including the

Islamic State group, adding that the IS claim
of responsibility “reveals (Saudi Arabia’s)
hand in this barbaric action.”
The “spilled blood of the innocent will not
remain unavenged,” the Revolutionary
Guard statement said.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the country’s
supreme leader, used the attacks to defend
Tehran’s involvement in wars abroad.
He told students that if “Iran had not
resisted,” it would have faced even more trou-
bles.
“The Iranian nation will go forward,” he said.
The violence began in midmorning when
assailants with Kalashnikov rifles and explo-
sives stormed the parliament complex where
a legislative session had been in progress.
The siege lasted for hours, and one of the
attackers blew himself up inside, according
to Iran’s state TV.
Images circulating in Iranian media
showed gunmen held rifles near the windows
of the complex. One showed a toddler being
handed through a first-floor window to safety
outside as an armed man looks on.
The IS group’s Aamaq news agency
released a 24-second video purportedly shot
inside the complex, showing a bloody, life-
less body on the floor next to a desk.
An Associated Press reporter saw several
police snipers on the roofs of nearby build-
ings. Police helicopters circled the parlia-
ment and all mobile phone lines from inside
were disconnected.
Shops in the area were closed as gunfire
rang out and officials urged people to avoid
public transportation. Witnesses said the
attackers fired from the parliament build-
ing’s fourth floor at people in the streets.
“I was passing by one of the streets. I
thought that children were playing with fire-
works, but I realized people are hiding and
lying down on the streets,” Ebrahim
Ghanimi, who was around the parliament
building, told the AP. “With the help of a taxi
driver, I reached a nearby alley.”
As the parliament attack unfolded, gunmen
and suicide bombers also struck outside
Khomeini’s mausoleum on Tehran’s south-
ern outskirts. Khomeini led the 1979 Islamic
Revolution that toppled the Western-backed
shah to become Iran’s first supreme leader
until his death in 1989.
Iran’s state broadcaster said a security
guard was killed at the tomb and one of the
attackers was slain by security guards. A
woman was also arrested. The shrine was not
damaged.
The Interior Ministry said six assailants
were killed — four at the parliament and two
at the tomb. A senior Interior Ministry offi-
cial told Iran’s state TV the male attackers
wore women’s attire.

Cosby’s accuser stands by story

By The Associated Press
NORRISTOWN, Pa. — The woman who
accuses Bill Cosby of drugging and violat-
ing her more than a decade ago stood by
her story at his sex-crimes trial
Wednesday, withstanding hours of often
ponderous cross-examination that didn’t
produce the stumbles the TV star might
have hoped for.
Calm and composed, Andrea Constand
brushed off suggestions she and Cosby
had a romantic relationship before the
2004 encounter at his suburban
Philadelphia home.
And she explained away the numerous
phone calls she made to him afterward by
saying she was merely returning Cosby’s
messages about the women’s basketball
squad at Temple University, where he was
a powerful member of the board of
trustees and she was director of team oper-
ations.
Constand, 44, left the witness stand after
some seven hours of testimony over two
days, during which she told the jury that
the comedian gave her three blue pills and
then penetrated her with his fingers as
she lay paralyzed on a couch, unable to
tell him to stop.
Constand’s mother followed her on the
stand and bolstered her daughter's
account. Gianna Constand told the jury
that she was distraught to learn what
Cosby had done to her daughter.
“They were good friends. She viewed
him like a father. He is 10 years older than
even her own father,” the mother testified,
breaking down on the stand.
Gianna Constand said she confronted
Cosby by phone during a two-hour call in
which she said he “surrendered” to her
about the sexual encounter and told her
he “was sick.”
After that conversation, she said, she
bought a recording device in hopes that
Cosby would again confess to harming her
daughter. But she said he kept their next
conversation short.
Prosecutors played a recording of the
call, in which Cosby offered to pay for
Constand’s education.
“She could go to school,” he said. “If she
wanted to do that, then I would be willing
to ... pay for the schooling.”
Cosby is charged with aggravated inde-
cent assault. The 79-year-old comedian
once dubbed America’s Dad could get 10
years in prison if convicted.
Cosby’s lawyers have argued that the
sexual encounter with Constand was con-
sensual and have cited phone records

British leaders wrap up campaign and Heartworm Prevention

By The Associated Press
LONDON — After a seven-week election
campaign that veered from the boredom
of staged soundbites to the trauma of two
deadly attacks, Britain's political leaders
asked voters Wednesday to choose: Who
is best to keep the U.K. safe and lead it out
of the European Union?
Conservative Prime Minister Theresa
May and opposition Labour Party leader
Jeremy Corbyn crisscrossed the country
on the final day of campaigning, trying to
woo voters with rival plans for Brexit,
building a fairer society and combating a
terrorist threat made all too immediate by
attacks in Manchester and London.
May promised to crack down on extrem-
ism if she wins Thursday’s vote — even if
that means watering down human rights
legislation.
“We are seeing the terrorist threat
changing, we are seeing it evolve and we
need to respond to that,” May said.
Corbyn argued that the real danger
comes from Conservative cuts to police
budgets.
“We won't defeat terrorists by ripping
up our basic rights and our democracy,"
he said.
Polls will be open today until 10 p.m.
British time (2 p.m. PT) with all 650 seats
in the House of Commons up for grabs.
May called the snap election -- three
years early — in a bid to boost the
Conservative majority in Parliament,
which she says will strengthen Britain’s
hand in divorce talks with the European
Union.
“Get those negotiations wrong and the
consequences will be dire,” she warned
Wednesday.
The Associated Press
Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn
Brexit negotiations will take up much
of the incoming government’s time over
the next two years. But it has taken a back
seat in the election — initially to debates
about how to narrow the gap between rich
and poor, then by the attacks in
Manchester and London.
Regarding the former, a Conservative
victory would mean continued cuts to pub-
lic spending in a bid to reduce the nation's
deficit; Labour says it will pump millions
more into education and health care and
raise income tax on the highest earners.
Corbyn said Thursday’s vote offered a
clear choice between “another five years
of a Tory government, underfunding of
services all across the UK ... or a Labour
government that invests for all, all across
Britain.”
The deadly attacks in Manchester on
May 22 and London on Saturday twice
brought the campaign to a temporary halt
— and put the threat from international

terrorism front and centre.
As May vowed to bring in new anti-ter-
ror measures, Corbyn criticized cuts to
the police under the Conservatives, which
saw the number of officers plummet by
almost 20,000 between 2010 and 2016.
May responded by assailing Corbyn’s
security record. He opposed British mili-
tary interventions in Afghanistan, Iraq
and Libya, wants to scrap Britain’s
nuclear arsenal and shared platforms
with Irish republicans in the years when
the IRA was setting off bombs in Britain.
Conservative-supporting newspapers
went on the attack against Corbyn on
Wednesday. The Daily Mail branded him
and senior colleagues “apologists for ter-
ror,” while the Daily Express exhorted:
“Vote May or we face disaster.”
Labour had a better campaign than
many expected, with opinion polls show-
ing a narrowing of the gap between it and
the Conservatives.

Inquiry

It’s time for a critical review
and reset of the national
inquiry into missing and mur-

The inquiry is needed.
Indigenous women have a mur-

City adds to concrete jungle
E ditor:
City Hall is at a critical time in its evo-
lution and we, the citizens – and our beau-
tiful city – are caught in its lack of fore-
sight and refusal to hear from its con-
stituents.
City Hall seems to be committed, in the
words of that plaintiff song, to “paving
paradise” — or if not paving, building on.
It amounts to the same thing: concrete.
The decision to approve the tourist cen-
tre building on the waterfront was a for-
gone conclusion, which was so apparent at
the sham public hearing.
The wisdom from the audience wasn’t
heard — “tourism is changing – a stand-
alone building will become obsolete; the
building will block more of the quickly
diminishing lake view — our major
tourist attraction; there is abundant space
available on Bernard Avenue; the site was
originally created with fill for a 1940s ferry
dock; that efforts to restore the much-
diminished and in this season, much more
diminished, shoreline will be thwarted;

Doctor-assisted suicide is in the news again,
and reasserts the need for death with dignity
in the face of unbearable pain and disability.
It brings to mind the dichotomy presented
by the College of Physicians and Surgeons
regarding the opioid crisis where a policy of
practical usage of milder forms of opioids has
been overturned because of abuse of that pol-
icy and the pursuit of recreation.
Like so many other examples of social mod-
ification that address the needs of the few and
penalizes the majority, I wonder if the scales
of suicide will tip in the other direction.
I’m writing about the many thousands of
arthritis sufferers who depend on a pain solu-
tion to function without having to be sub-
jected to sedation and three pages of side
effects (SSRIs).
The SSRI solution does not address pain,
but does render the user too numb to care.
For those of us who choose to remain alert,
the prospect of increasingly severe chronic
pain just may tip those scales in the other
direction.
Last year, when the law changed to allow
doctor-assisted suicide, we all had the discus-
sion, what would each of us do if presented

hether you are an athlete,
in your golden years of
retirement, or the typical
person on your feet all
day at work, if you have suffered a knee
injury you know how debilitating it can
be. Tendon injuries are very common and
there are three types of knee injuries that I
often encounter: iliotibial band syndrome
(pain on the outside of the knee); patellar
tendonitis (pain below the knee); and
hamstring injuries (leading to pain in
the back of the knee). As well, arthritis
plagues many people and often results in
knee replacement surgery. Each of these
injuries comes with its own set of obstacles
when treating with conventional methods:
tendonitis can create fibrous adhesions and
scar tissue that disrupts the normal function
of the muscle; arthritis erodes the cartilage,
decreasing the joint space; and surgery,

that onsite parking matters, as is evident
at the current highway site.”
The only voices heard were the tourist
association — self-serving at best, but at
worse, wrecking what they purport to be
selling — shame on them.
Then there’s the “private property”
parkade built on Ellis Street in defiance
of the Simpson covenant – a truly ugly
concrete box in a location that was speci-
fied “for the use and enjoyment of the cit-
izens of Kelowna ... with no commercial
activity.”
When the BC Supreme Court ruled that
the terms and conditions of use of the civic
centre lands, as agreed to by previous city
councils, were in fact, still valid and the
city could not remove them, the Save the
Historic Simpson Covenant Society and
its legal counsel, Tom Smithwick, met
with city staff to express concern that paid
public parking on the civic centre lands
did not live up to the spirit and intent, nor
in fact, the terms of the original agree-
ment.
and tourist taxpayers.
And spending they are, $12 million in
land and cash.
What financial shenanigans. A building
of this size is required by the city to pro-
vide a minimum eight parking spots.
Since Tourism Kelowna wants none,
they must pay a fine of $22,500 each, or
$180,000.
So we taxpayers will give them our grant
and Tourism Kelowna will give us back a
portion to pay the $180,000.
For the 16 years after the city bought the
land from the province, until December
2016, the B.C. government had a covenant
attached to the title forbidding the con-
with that dilemma?
So the subject is fresh in our minds. I feel
that seniors, with arthritis in all of its forms,
and chronic pain sufferers are being pushed
to make that consideration. How is that jus-
tified?
More and more accommodation is being
made for street users in terms of injection
sites, street supervision and even in actually
providing the drugs —all, I might add, at the
taxpayer’s expense.
Chronic pain sufferers, believe me, are not
looking for recreation, nor are they addicted.
When pain is present, the medication is not
euphoric. Once again, How is that justified?
I think the college is treading on dangerous
ground by withholding century’s old solution
of a natural substance to those who could
truly benefit and function productively.
Cannabinoids offer soft-tissue relief, but do
little to alleviate the bone grinding effects of
joint pain.
I truly hope the college will reconsider
equating codeine and milder forms of opiods
with drugs such as fentanyl, morphine and
heroin.

KNEE PAIN?
although sometimes necessary, creates
scar tissue on the surrounding muscle and
tendon, binding the knee and often creating
soft tissue pain.
For the past seven years I have
successfully been using shockwave therapy
(ESWT) to treat these conditions as
shockwave therapy breaks down scar tissue
and adhesions and stimulates blood vessel
growth to restore muscle function and
promote healing. There are also increasing
numbers of journal articles supporting the
use of shockwave therapy for knee pain/
injuries/arthritis. For example, The Journal
of Surgical Research 2012 showed ESWT
is effective in preventing knee arthritis. In
The American Journal Of Sports Medicine
2007, 90% showed significant improvement
in patellar tendonitis with ESWT.
Furthermore, in The Archives of Orthopedic
Trauma Surgery 2007, it was indicated that
ESWT caused a significant reduction in
the progression of knee arthritis (ESWT
stimulates cells to produce cartilage). The
following are just a few of the knee-related
testimonials I have received.

knee joints. Prior to coming to Glenmore

City staff disagreed, stating that park-

certain, was this the intent of the original
agreement.
And now we have, in an area that could
have been green space in an area of
unsightly congestion, a multi-storied, very
ugly concrete box that will be there for a
long, long time. Is there not something
ludicrous about using this precious down-
town space for the tenants who have just
built a fitness centre in their newly
opened building?
Does this city council have no vision, no
aspirations for what this city could be if
they would look beyond their short-term
agenda? And then listen to the wisdom of
all those the voices who want to speak,
before making up their minds.
Then we might have a more hopeful,
more optimistic, less confrontational, and
less of a drop-in/drop-out community that
what we now have developing.

MLAs must learn
to work together
to benefit province
Editor:
The result of the B.C. election poses some interest-
ing questions. The citizens of the province have
elected 87 people to run the province. Can they work
together to get things done or will the adversarial
party system cause a breakdown and the call for
another election?
Until about 1900, B.C. did not have political parties.
The party system has developed over the years and
now party “whips” assure support for proposals put
forward by party leaders.
The fact is that on a great many issues, the views
of people elected are not that far apart. Is it possible
that they just might work together to get things done?
Some issues should be easy — electoral reform,
party and campaign finance policy, Medicare premi-
ums. All shared the idea of the need for change. These
issues should be addressed first.
Some issues are controversial — pipelines, the Site
C dam, carbon tax.
Here there is a need for dialogue and compromises
to consider the best interests of the province. The
problem here is that the real issues are not the ones
most often debated.
For example, there is just no question that the safest
and most economical way of moving petroleum prod-
ucts to market is by pipeline — not railways. Should
we be exporting raw crude or refined product is a sep-
arate issue. The fight against pipelines focuses on the
wrong issue.
Regarding the Site C dam, I like the idea of having
the utilities commission do an economic assessment
to determine the need for this huge expenditure. If a
case can be made for it, so be it. I have not heard a
sound case yet.
On the carbon tax issue, I am as concerned as any-
one about the human impact on climate change.
However, I can’t see where applying a tax on things
like natural gas used to heat your home serves any
purpose.
With an energy-efficient furnace, there is nothing
else one can do to reduce consumption. The tax was
supposed to be revenue neutral. Wrong.
It’s true that increased homeowner grants have
been provided to owners of homes on deeded land,
but for the rest of us, it is just another tax and we have
yet to see any concrete plans for addressing the car-
bon emissions issue.
I think the fact that the provincial vote was so close
provides an opportunity to work together to address
the real issues facing our province.
This may be idealistic, but the close vote provides
a real opportunity to try a new approach.

Veteran receiver back with Lions after ‘fluke’ injury
KAMLOOPS (CP) — Nick Moore got behind
the coverage with ease on a slick corner
route, fighting off the glare of the setting sun
to haul in his first touchdown of 2016.
On his way back to the bench, the veteran
B.C. Lions receiver spied teammate Loucheiz
Purifoy, and in the excitement of the moment,
the two leapt in the air to lightly bump shoul-
ders in celebration.
Purifoy landed on his feet. Moore crumpled
to the turf. And the euphoria of that 30-yard
TD in Regina last July, one that gave his team
the lead over the Saskatchewan Roughriders,
was gone in an instant.
Moore had torn the anterior cruciate liga-
ment in his left knee and was done for the
season.

PITTSBURGH (CP) — Evgeni Malkin ex-

Stanley Cup final, and anticipates his own
“best game” too.
The Penguins will likely need Malkin and
Kessel at their best to wrestle back control of
a series that’s lately gone the Predators way.
Nashville captured Games 3 and 4 in front of
a raucous home crowd and did so, in part, by
continuing to stifle the two-headed offensive
monster that lines up behind Sidney Crosby.
“It’s time,” Malkin said. “It’s a good time to
show your best game because there’s only
three games left and (then) we have two, three
months (of) summertime.”

“It was frustrating the way that it

who had also caught a 52-yard pass

What he could control, however,
was his desire to get back on the

Canada, which has never beaten New

With just three days between games, the

For Canadian coach Francois Ratier, it’s a

World Cup.
For his players, it’s a chance to showcase
their skills on a big rugby stage. Friday’s

Seattle picks
influential
investor for
KeyArena
renovation
By TIM BOOTH
The Associated Press
Seattle has taken a significant step
forward in a long-running arena
saga whose culmination could see ei-
ther an NBA or NHL team playing
in the city.
Mayor Ed Murray announced on
Wednesday that the city will begin
negotiations with the Oak View
Group on a proposal for a privately
financed renovation of city-owned
KeyArena, the former home of the
Seattle SuperSonics. Plans for the re-
model would bring the building up
to standards that could attract an
NHL or NBA franchise once com-
pleted.
While Seattle’s history is as a bas-
ketball town, the completion of an
arena could be the ticket for getting
an NHL team into the market first.
The NHL has not hidden its interest
in Seattle, the No. 14 media market
in the country and the only market
in the top 25 nationally that does not
have an NBA or NHL team.
But the NHL has also grown frus-
trated by the starts and stops of an
arena process that’s seen more road-
blocks than successes.
Oak View Group, led by industry
leader Tim Leiweke, is the only re-
maining group from the proposal
process that started earlier this year,
making Murray’s announcement an-
ticlimactic. A competing bid from
Seattle Partners — a group that in-
cluded arena giant AEG — withdrew
its proposal Sunday amid criticism
of how the city handled the proposal
process.
For most of the last month, OVG
has seemed the likely group to win
the bid for revamping the arena so
it would be capable of hosting major
pro sports again. OVG’s proposal
called for a $564-million overhaul
that would be financed through a
mix of revenue streams. OVG also
has financial backing from Madison
Square Garden Entertainment.
OVG boosted its proposal by an-
nouncing Wednesday that billion-
aire David Bonderman and filmmak-
er Jerry Bruckheimer were joining
the investment group. Bonderman
has been a minority owner of the
Boston Celtics since the early 2000s
and was among those looking into
purchasing the Golden State Warr-
iors less than a decade ago.

Burk and Latoya Blackwood, Ratier is still
putting out a seasoned lineup. Of the match-

Cup final when Canada lost 21-9 to England.
“I’m working on the continuity, . . . Since
last summer, through the November tour and
Can-Am Series, the core group is the same,”
said Ratier. “I can say now we have an expe-
rienced team.”
Both coaches have drawn on their coun-
try’s sevens strength.

Kelly Brazier and star strike runner Portia
Woodman all start for the Black Ferns.

“It’s a long, long season,” said
Buono. “Injuries occur, but if you
don’t disrupt your team too much
then I think the opportunity to win
is greater. Nick was a part of that
plan.”
But Moore probably sits further
down the depth chart than at any
other time in the last five years,
with Emmanuel Arceneaux, Bryan
Burnham and Chris Williams, who
is also coming back from an ACL
tear, ahead of him in the pecking or-
der.
After his future looked uncertain
11 months ago, that situation suits
Moore just fine.
“It’s super exciting because you
know the man next to you, he’s go-
ing to open you up and you’re going
to open him up,” he said.
“We’re all brothers. We all want
each other to do well. It’s going to be
fun.
“It’s going to be a pick-your-poi-
son situation.”
Buono believes Moore’s knee was
already damaged before his season
ended, recalling how former Lions
quarterback Dave Dickenson suf-
fered a similar injury without con-
tact in 2003.
“Dave played the last game of the
(regular season), hurt his knee,”
said Buono. “Didn’t think too much
of it because after the bye he recov-
ered a little bit.
“First time he goes out and throws
the ball, drives with his right foot,
plants it, tears his ACL.”
Moore said the legendary coach
might be onto something.
“If you really go back and look at
it, I didn’t really jump that high off
the ground, and the way I landed it
just kind of gave a little bit,” said the
University of Toledo product.
“There could have been some dam-
age in there before, but you never
know.”
Buono didn’t ban similar celebra-
tions after the injury, but he also
doesn’t have to worry about a repeat
from Moore.
“Looking back at it now, I laugh,”
said Moore. “It’s just a crazy, fluke
accident.
“I can guarantee you I won’t be
jumping up like that again.”
Seattle
Continued from page B1
The franchise eventually went to
Joe Lacob.
Although he lives in Texas,
Bonderman has significant Seattle
ties. He graduated from the
University of Washington with a de-
gree in Russian in 1963 and has a fel-
lowship in his name at the school.
Bruckheimer has no sports own-
ership ties but was rumoured to be
involved in talks about the expan-
sion NHL franchise in Las Vegas
that eventually went to Bill Foley.
The decision to go with OVG is
subject to both sides agreeing on de-
tails of the proposal and the final-
ized transaction must receive ap-
proval from the city council. That
may prove tougher than it sounds,
as numerous community groups
have expressed concerns about
KeyArena becoming a year-round
destination venue in a neighbour-
hood that has seen a building boom
with transportation shortcomings.
There’s also the question of how
much influence Murray’s decision
will have since he is not running for
re-election in November.
Seattle Partners proposed a $521
million remodel that required using
$250 million of the city’s bonding ca-
pacity to complete the financing,
which was deemed a deal breaker
after the city demanded the project
be privately financed.
Still waiting across town is in-
vestor Chris Hansen and his hopes
of building a privately financed are-
na in an area near Safeco Field but

whatever I do.”
Malkin, the second highest pro-
ducing current player in the post-
season after Crosby, wanted to do a
better job himself of keeping and
shooting the puck more. He has only
four shots in the series, including a
shot-less Game 3.
“It’s not easy, but I know I can be
better myself,” Malkin said.
Some of that started, he believed,
with spending more time in the of-
fensive zone and wearing down the
top of Nashville’s defence. Malkin
figured Subban and Ekholm, as well
as Roman Josi and Ryan Ellis, were
“tired for sure” with each logging
24-26 minutes per game.
He thought the Penguins got their
best looks in Game 4, but were ulti-
mately denied by Rinne, who redis-
covered his way after a rocky start
to the series.
Scott Wilson, a rookie winger
who’s lined up with Malkin occa-
sionally this season, thought he was
at his best when he was “feisty.”
“I think when he’s going he plays
with that fiery edge a little bit,”
Wilson said.
But the Predators’ defenders made
it tough because of how well they
skated and how capable they were
with the puck. It was difficult to es-
tablish much pressure because
Subban and Ekholm got the puck up
and out of the zone with such ease.
A more potent power play would
help Malkin and Kessel, who lead
the team with 11 power-play points
apiece. The unit went 0-6 in the two
defeats, but generated more in the
latter loss.
Penguins head coach Mike
Sullivan has mostly kept the two to-
gether at even-strength and underly-
ing numbers suggest that’s proba-
bly best. Still, it lessens the overall
depth of the Pittsburgh lineup and
allows the Preds two clean
matchups — with Josi and Ellis
guarding Crosby, who was a force
in Game 4.
Sullivan said earlier this series
that the duo is most effective “when
they’re playing the game the right
way, they’re winning puck battles,
they’re good on the wall, they’re
stopping on pucks, they’re being dif-
ficult to play against.”

husband
must prove
he can be
trusted
QUESTION: After 17 years of mar-
riage, for eight months our relation-
ship has been very inconsistent.
My wife said she’s lost feeling for
me because when our kids were
young and we’d visit friends’
houses, she’d end up going home by
herself in snowy and bad weather.
Also, I exploded at her when I got
drunk, was rude, and said I wanted Photo contributed

to break up.
But now I’ve changed a lot to be a
better person, husband and father.
I admitted my wrongdoings and
am doing everything I can to keep
our marriage going.
But she’s hot and cold to me, and
my daughter noticed that my wife’s
bi-polar.
I’m a passionate person and love
her and the family very much.
But I can’t stand her not appreciat-
ing what I did for her and every-
thing else to keep our family
together.
I told her if she can’t let the past
go, then we can’t be happy together
and should separate.
She said she loves me. It’s just that
the memory of the bad side of me
affects her mood.
What can I do to avoid being
depressed and wanting to separate?
— Desperate Husband
ANSWER: It’s what you can now
do for her that matters.
Your history as a couple wasn’t
easy — you drunk, her trudging
home alone in the cold; you “explod-
ing,” her hurt and angry.
It created years of resentment.
Now, you believe you’ve changed
enough that she has to forget the
past and show the love.
Not so. It’s you who has to help her
believe that she can trust you to not
treat her badly again.
Invite her to go to counselling
together and both openly discuss the
past. Learn ways to make a fresh
start as a loving couple.
I’m dismissing the bi-polar com-
ment since there’s no mention of a
professional diagnosis. But if it were
new information, a loving husband
would see a doctor with her.
QUESTION: My live-in boyfriend
of three years has a daughter, eight,
who’s here 30 per cent of the time.
My kids are in their 20s.
My boyfriend does almost every-
thing for her, including showering
her and wiping her bottom after she
goes “number two.”
She calls him into the bathroom.
Early on, she asked me as well. I was
shocked, but gave her a lesson.
I thought by now she’d be doing
this by herself and they’d realize

NBC doesn’t care what Oliver Stone thinks
By The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Film director Oliver Stone,
whose series of conversations with Vladimir
Putin air next week on the U.S. cable channel
Showtime, said he watched Megyn Kelly inter-
view the Russian president on NBC and con-
cluded that “he knew his stuff and she didn’t.”
Kelly’s interview, which aired on the debut
of her newsmagazine, Sunday Night with
Megan Kelly, on Sunday, “became machine-gun
like,” Stone said, and was an example of how
American journalism frequently leaves little
room for nuance.
“I think she was attractive and she asked
hardball questions, but she wasn’t in position to
debate or counter him, because she didn’t know
a lot of things," he said.
NBC News President Noah Oppenheim shot
back that “no one here is interested in Oliver
Stone's unsolicited thoughts on Megyn Kelly’s
Mitchell is one of New York’s most prolific
pianists and a member of various ensembles
including John Hollenbeck’s Large Ensemble,
and the Dave Douglas Quintet.
As “one of the most exciting new arrivals on
the New York avant-garde jazz scene” (Peter
Margasak, Chicago Reader), Webber demon-
strates a rich, intricate, and at times fiery rela-
tionship between composition and improvisa-
tion.

Don’t give up on her. She’s still

action of a turned stomach isn’t
helping any of you.
Try another approach with kind-
ness. Reward some progress, even if
it’s with a treat.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I have
lupus, so my kidneys and other
organs are always of concern.
After having chronic urinary tract
infections for about two years, I
was referred to a nephrologist for
further testing, and was diagnosed
with stage 4 kidney disease. My
creatinine level in February was
2.35.
However, when I went back three
weeks later to discuss biopsy, a
new lab report suggested that the
disease had reversed.
The creatinine was back down to
my normal, around 1.31. Other lab
reports in the past indicated kid-
ney malfunction as well, so while I
was not surprised at the disease
diagnosis, I was surprised at the
reversal.
Is this reversal normal at stage 4?
I had not been given any changes
in medications or diet during the
three-week period.
ANSWER: Creatinine is a sub-
stance in the blood, a waste prod-
uct of normal muscle turnover. It
is removed by the kidney, and it is
a pretty good, but not perfect, meas-
urement of kidney function. If kid-
ney function is poor, the creatinine
will rise. However, people with
K E I T H
ROACH
Medical Advice
more muscle to begin with will
have creatinine levels a bit higher.
Some medications, especially
ACE inhibitors, increase the crea-
tinine level while still protecting
the kidney.
Also, changes in fluid status will
affect the creatinine. People who
get too dry and volume-depleted
will have a bump in their creati-
nine (the bump will be larger in
people who already have some kid-
ney malfunction).
Because of this, it’s the overall
trend that is important, and a sin-
gle elevated number may or may
not be the beginning of a trend,
which is why the nephrologist (kid-
ney specialist) wisely rechecked it
before performing an invasive pro-
cedure like a biopsy.
I think the 2.35 number was a
bump, perhaps from being dry. Lab
errors are rare.
You are absolutely right that peo-
ple with lupus need to be con-
cerned about kidney function. A
biopsy may be appropriate for a
sudden increase in the creatinine,
but it must be confirmed by a sec-
ond test on a different day.
DEAR DR. ROACH: I have had
several bouts with iritis over the
years. My ophthalmologist
requested bloodwork from my gen-
eral physician, and I tested positive
for HLA-B27. I am not sure what
that actually means. My physician
said it has to do with inflammation
and arthritis. But he didn’t suggest
more tests or treatment. If this is
the basis for the iritis, is there any-
thing I need to be doing to prevent
future episodes? Could you explain
what HLA-B27 means?
ANSWER: Iritis, also called ante-
rior uveitis, is inflammation of the
iris, the coloured structure of the
eye. It causes pain and redness, and
may cause some loss of vision. It
isn’t one disease: It can happen by
itself or in association with other
systemic diseases.
Three common and feared sys-
temic diseases that are associated
with uveitis are ankylosing
spondylitis, reactive arthritis and
inflammatory bowel disease.
The human leukocyte antigens
(HLA) are molecules on our cell
surfaces that allow the immune
system to distinguish self from
nonself. If a cell is recognized as
nonself (such as a foreign invader),
it is attacked by the immune cells.
HLA-B27 is a family of these mol-
ecules. It is associated with autoim-
mune disease. Only about six per
cent of North Americans have
HLA-B27, but 90 per cent of people
with ankylosing spondylitis and
reactive arthritis are HLA-B27-pos-
itive.
The body’s immune system can
be the cause of the damage to the
eye, joints and gut.
I am guessing your ophthalmol-
ogist and physician may look for
evidence of joint or gut disease,
even if you don’t have symptoms
now.

and Patrick; second family Ben, John and Chris Healy; all of the Kourany
family; father Richard Dorion and family; and our incredible extended
family and friends in Kelowna and Ottawa. Kris moved across the country
to be close to his mom and dad. Once here, he fell head over heels in
love with Kelowna and British Columbia. He was so fortunate to have
a terrific job with Brookfield GIS – his best career experience ever with
wonderful colleagues and associates. Kris was an outdoors guy with a
passion for sports – his pursuits included golf, fishing, kayaking (while
fishing), skiing (most elegant skier on the mountain), playing and watching
hockey (especially his beloved Sens). We will miss his quirky sense of
humour, his gentle smile and kind heart, his soft blue eyes, his introverted
chattiness, his high culinary standards, his relentless teasing and most of
all his strong loving hugs. A huge piece of our existence has vanished, but
we will rebuild our lives the way we know Kris would want us to. A small,
private Celebration of Life will be held in Ottawa, Kris’s home town, later
in June. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the BC
SPCA Kelowna Branch. Condolences may be sent to the family by

Laurettta Charlton, John, Terry and Allen
Euper as well as many extended family and
friends who will also miss her dearly, including
Pat Wood, her best friend for 50 years. Born May 1, 1945 in Vancouver to
Jack and Dorothy Euper, June spent most of her childhood in Vancouver
and Bellingham, WA. She lived for many years on Quadra Island and in
Campbell River where they raised the kids and then headed for the sunny
Okanagan when John retired in 2000. She and John loved exploring the
area where they enjoyed the warmth of the weather and the friends that
they met there. June continued to work and enjoyed brightening the days
of many others during her time at Capri Insurance in West Kelowna. June
was active in the local quilting clubs and thoroughly enjoyed the many
hours she spent making beautiful treasures for various charities. She and
John also liked to travel, particularly to the warm climates in Hawaii and
Arizona. Most of all, June loved spending time with her family and friends.
Her infectious smile and warm welcome brightened the lives of those
she touched and she truly was the glue who brought the family together.
Support from friends, family and faith gave June the strength needed in
her courageous battle with cancer. While saddened by our loss, we are
glad to know she is Home and reunited with Dad. A celebration of June’s
life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers donations may be made
to the Canadian Cancer Society or the Central Okanagan Hospice House
(www.hospicecoha.org). Arrangements entrusted to Everden Rust Funeral
Services, condolences may be made by visiting www.everdenrust.com
