ARNE PETRYSHENOn Monday, council
voted to sell Fire Hall no. 1. Council also voted to not extend an agreement to re-purpose the building to house the Cranbrook and District Arts Council.
Mayor Lee Pratt gave the news at the end of the Mon-day, April 27 city council meeting. Council came to the decision during the in-camera portion of the meeting prior to the public agenda.
Pratt noted the decision was not an easy one.
“It was a tough decision made, and we feel it was the right decision made for the majority of the citizens of
Cranbrook,” Pratt said.The Memorandum of
Understanding that the city previously had with the Cranbrook and District Arts Council will also not be ex-tended. The agreement was around the potential repur-posing of Fire Hall no. 1 into a permanent home for the arts council.
“That was the decision of council following the meet-ing this evening,” Pratt said. “Several significant con-cerns about the overall via-bility without a significant investment from the city were raised, along with the level of services within the city being duplicated, espe-cially with organizations
and facilities that already get funding and support from the city as well as with services delivered by local private sector businesses.”
Pratt said council also believes the scale of the project is beyond the arts council’s ability to deliver.
Pratt added that council also voted Monday night to have staff talk to a realtor and put the building up for sale.
“There will be a number of contingencies or rules pertaining to the sale and the listing, which staff will be discussing with the city’s realtor,” he said.

For the townsmanThe Barenaked La-
dies announced Tues-day that Cranbrook will be stop on the band’s major 20 date cross-Canada tour in support of their upcom-ing album “Silverball,” available June 2.
Th popular Canadi-an rock band touches down at Western Finan-cial Place in Cranbrook on October 26, 2015.
The tour includes special guest Alan Doyle, former lead sing-er of Canadian rock band Great Big Sea. It kicks off October 19 in Prince George and wraps up November 21 in Ottawa. Every ticket
purchased for Canadian show dates include a digital download of Sil-verball delivered on June 2.
Tickets will be on sale May 1 at 10 am. Visit barenakedladies.com for more information on ticket bundles and VIP packages.
The Barenaked La-dies are currently com-posed of Jim Creeggan, Kevin Hearn, Ed Robert-son, and Tyler Stewart. They formed in 1988 in the Toronto area, and are known for their hit singles, “One Week”, “The Old Apartment”, “Pinch Me”, “If I Had $1000000”, “Brian Wil-son” and the theme

song for the sitcom The Big Bang Theory. They have a reputation for light-hearted, comedic performance style and humorous banter be-tween songs — impro-vised raps and songs are staples at most concerts. They have won multiple Juno Awards and have been nominated for Grammy Awards.
A press release is-sued by the group’s management said fans who pre-order Silverball now at iTunes will get the tracks “Say What You Want” & “Matter Of Time” instantly. An ad-ditional 3 tracks will be available with iTunes pre-orders in the weeks leading up to the June 2 release. Silverball is also available to pre-order at Amazon. Spotify users can also stream “Say What You Want” & “Matter Of Time” from Silverball beginning today.
Fans can also stream the band’s first single “Say What You Want” which has premiered via Entertainmentweek-ly.com. “Say What You Want” is a celebration of letting go,” Ed Robert-son says. “It’s about feel-ing confident, and real-izing that you can’t con-trol what other people do or say, you can only control how you react to it.” The band recently filmed a video for the track with director Matt Hullum of Rooster Teeth, the Austin-based production company that worked with the band to create videos for “Odds Are” and “Did I Say That Out Loud”.

Eight volunteers from the local Speed Watch attend-ed and were treated to hamburgers with all the fixings, side dishes and a beautiful cake. Speed Watch is one of the many groups in the community that is committed to making Kimberley a better place. Speed Watch is contributes to the safety of our streets through education and awareness. Cpl. Newel, detachment commander, thanked the volunteers for their support. Acting mayor Albert Hoglund, spoke on behalf of the city and commented on the visibility they provide in promoting road safety.

A Cranbrook woman is recovering from se-vere burns after a grass-fire accident on her property last week.
Tammy McDonald was tending a con-trolled fire when a light-er fluid bottle exploded in the grass beside her, engulfing her in flames.
She suffered first- and third-degree burns covering 50 per cent of her body and is on a ventilator because of
the smoke inhalation. Doctors say McDonald will need skin grafts from her elbows to her fingertips due to the se-verity of the burns, which with a six-month estimated recovery time.
A GoFundMe ac-count has been set up by family friends to help cover the medical costs of treatment.
“The plan is to fly her to Vancouver today and get her set up with the
burn specialists there,” according to a post on the account. “ She faces an at least 6-month healing process, and probably longer. Van-couver is expensive, so let’s keep this trail a’roll-ing! Thanks so much for your support and help! It means so much!”

Additionally, a press release issued by Chris Zettel, Corporate Com-munication Officer for the city said the deci-sion is a chance to give the historic building new life.
“The opportunity is now there for the cur-rently empty fire hall to be purchased, renovat-ed and given a new and useful purpose that will help continue to revi-talize the downtown,” the release read. “The new owners will also be able to take advantage of the city’s downtown Revitalization Tax Ex-emption bylaw de-signed to encourage and stimulate develop-ment and improvement in the downtown help-ing enhance the econo-my and add to the beautification of the area.
“Those who take ad-vantage of the bylaw can receive a property tax exemption of be-tween 80 to 100 percent of the total improve-ment cost for a term of five years.”
The release stressed that council is not sell-ing the city’s heritage: “Regardless of its future use, the city’s Heritage Bylaw is in place to help maintain the heritage character of buildings designated under the bylaw, such as the fire hall – whether the own-ership is public or pri-vate. Council will re-view all offers being put forward for the old fire hall by potential buyers including all future use plans. Council is very keen to see what oppor-tunities may exist for the building.”
On the subject of the Memorandum of Un-derstanding, the release stated that the review of the structural assess-ment completed by an independent engineer showed significant structural issues with the building.
“Similarly, in terms of the proposed busi-ness plan, there are sev-eral significant defi-ciencies with the draft business plan that makes Council suspect

the viability of the plan,” the release said. “For example, the plan lacks a proper basic feasibili-ty assessment of the market. While there are a number of statements throughout the docu-ment claiming a high demand for the services proposed by CDAC, there is no actual sup-porting information justifying the state-ments. The plan also
lacks a proper analysis of the competition. In fact, many of the pro-posed activities and services of the plan du-plicate what is already offered by existing facil-ities supported by the city.
“In essence, the plan proposes to go into di-rect competition with facilities already fund-ed by the City including the Key City Theatre, the Studio Stage Door, the Royal Alexandra Hall at the Cranbrook History Centre and the Manual Training Cen-tre along with private sector businesses and other service organiza-tions.”
The release said that council is prepared to work with the CDAC to help them find an af-fordable permanent home.
“Although a new MOU will not be en-tered into at this time, Council will continue to support CDAC through its grants to organiza-tions program and have committed $20,000 for operations of the CDAC in 2015,” it said.
“In essence, the (CDAC) plan proposes to go
into direct competition with facilities already
funded by the City including the Key City
Theatre, the Studio Stage Door, the Royal Alexandra Hall at the
Cranbrook History Centre and the Manual Training Centre along
with private sector businesses and other
service organizations.”City of Cranbrook

“W hat’s emerging is what we need,which is a comprehen-sive plan, going after the
criminal gangs, going after the traffickers, going after the owners of the boats ... and stabilising the countries from which these people are coming.”
And when you have finished “stabilis-ing” Syria, Somalia and Libya, overthrowing the Er-itrean dictatorship, and ending poverty in West Afri-ca, could you drop by and fix my plumbing? Oh, and Yemen. Fix Yemen too.
“These people” are the 1,300 refugees who drowned in the Mediterranean in the past two weeks, the 30,000 who will drown by the end of this year while trying to cross if nothing more is done — and of course, the estimated half million who will make it safely to Italy, Malta or Greece. The speak-er was Britain’s Prime Minister David Cameron, but he was just one voice in the European Union choir.
The EU’s leaders were meeting in emer-gency session because of a public outcry over all the refugees drowning on the crossing between Libya and Italy. These same leaders were responsible for most of the deaths, because last year they ended a very effective Italian Navy search-and-res-cue operation and “replaced” it with an EU operation that had a third of the resources and was not supposed to operate more than 50 km off the Italian coast.
So now they had to fix it somehow, but they were all aware that their electorates at home still don’t want millions of migrants flooding into the EU, refugees or not. So they did what politicians do in circum-stances like these. They came up with a displacement activity.
The problem, it turns out, is not refu-
gees fleeing from places like war-torn Syria and Somalia, from cruel dictatorships like Eritrea, and from impoverished parts of West Africa. It is the evil traffickers — the new slave-traders, Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi called them — who lure the migrants away from their homes and charge them $2,000 per person for a place
on a leaky boat to Europe.Well, of course. Why
would anybody want to leave a nice, safe place like Syria or Somalia unless they had been tricked into it by unscrupulous peo-ple-smugglers? So if we just break up those crimi-
nal gangs, maybe even go into Libyan terri-torial waters and destroy their boats before they leave the coast, then the demand for their services will vanish. Everybody will stay home, and the problem will go away.
Wait, sorry, we forgot. We have to “sta-bilise” their countries too. But THEN the problem really will go away, and we’ll all live happily ever after.
Are any of the 28 EU national leaders so naive that they believe this garbage? Of course not. So why are they saying it? Be-cause they, like the people who voted for or against them, are torn between a dis-taste for seeing innocent people die, and a determination that millions of those inno-cent people cannot come and live in their countries.
So they want to hide what the policy is really about, and displace the blame for its bad effects (namely a lot of people drown-ing) on somebody else. Racist and hypo-critical, you say, with a bit of Islamophobia thrown in. You’re right about the hypocri-sy, but for a lot of Europeans the problem really is the numbers.
There are millions of people living with-in 1,500 km. of the European Union’s bor-
ders who would move there tomorrow if they had the chance, and that’s just the desperate ones who are trying to escape from wars, violent anarchy and extreme repression.
Count in all the others who would just like a chance to make a decent living in a place where corruption is relatively low and the law is usually enforced, and you are probably into tens of millions of po-tential migrants. Most of them are not desperate enough to risk the trans-Medi-terranean route. Make it easier and safer, however, and lots of them would come too.
There are now close to one billion peo-ple living within 2,000 km. of the EU’s bor-ders. Thanks to some of the world’s highest population growth rates, that will double in the next 30 years, which virtually guar-antees that there will be more civil wars, more failed states and even more refugees. And that’s before you factor in the impact of climate change in the sub-tropics.
The EU’s own population is about 650 million, and it is not growing. So there is deep concern among EU leaders (though many of them don’t want to say it in pub-lic) that in ten or ten years they will be fac-ing illegal migration so massive that it would fundamentally change the cultural identity of European countries.
They want to get the new, much tough-er policy towards refugees in place now, before the refugees taking the sea route to Europe start coming in even greater num-bers, but they don’t want to take responsi-bility for the deaths that will happen as a result. How to shift the blame? Try this. “It’s not our fault that all those poor people are dying at sea; it’s the fault of the evil people-smugglers.”

Kimberley native and University of Idaho Vandal Jared du Toit tees off during second-round action at the 2015 Big Sky Conference Men’s Golf Championship Tuesday afternoon at Greenhorn Creek Golf Resort in Angels Camp, Calif.
Title trackersdu Toit & Vandals seek individual & team victories at Big Sky
Taylor rocc aSports Editor
With 36 of 54 holes in the books, Kimberley’s Jared du Toit has sights set on both the individ-ual and team titles heading into final-round action at the 2015 NCAA Big Sky Conference Men’s Golf Champion-ship.
“Solid play should be able to do it,” du Toit said over the phone from Angels Camp, Calif., following his sec-ond round Tuesday af-ternoon. “Play smart golf. I feel like we’re doing the right things. If we continue to do so, we should come out with the championship.
“Going in with the lead I’m definitely going to be, I wouldn’t say con-servative, but definitely favour the inside of the green or the middle of the green on a lot of ap-proach shots. Maybe take a little bit more of a conservative line on a couple tee shots as well. We’ll see where it goes from there.”
du Toit fired a three-under 69 Tuesday afternoon, good enough to vault him into first place on the individual leaderboard by a two-stroke margin.
With a final-round tee-off time set for 8:51 (Pacific time), the Kim-berley native will look to fend off the competition and claim his second NCAA tournament vic-tory of the season Wednesday at Green-horn Creek Golf Resort in Angels Camp.
“For me, I try to take my mind off it,” du Toit said of having a target on his back as the leader heading into the final day. “When you start thinking about it, you get a little too in your own head about it. Being with a bunch of guys, we kind of talk about other stuff, have a good time and really just try and take our mind off the round.
“Come game time [Wednesday], we pre-pare and we’re ready to go come tee-off.”
Devon Purser (Weber State), Nic Booth (South-ern Utah) and Aaron Cockerill (Idaho) are in hot pursuit of du Toit heading into the final day as they sit in a three-
way tie for second place at even par after Tues-day’s second round.
du Toit, a former Sel-kirk Secondary School student, paced his Uni-versity of Idaho Vandals team to a combined four-over 580 and first-place standing through two of three rounds.
As he did during Monday’s opening round, du Toit came out firing to start the second day of competition Tuesday morning.
The Vandals sopho-more birdie three of his first four holes on the front nine, en route to a three-under 33 to kick-start his day.
“It’s definitely a good way to set the tone for the rest of the round,” du Toit said. “When you do get a couple putts to drop coming out of the gate you’re almost re-lieved a little bit that you’ve seen a couple putts go in and you can keep going.
“Coming out of the gate hot was huge. It’s the best way to do it…When you do come out hot, it takes the weight off and you can build off that.”
The back nine caused a bit of trouble for du Toit and most of the compe-tition on opening day, but having seen that half of the track, the Kimber-ley native wasn’t about to repeat his open-ing-day 38 on the back.
With a birdie on the 188-yard, par-three 15th hole and a bogey on the 485-yard, par-five 18th, du Toit scrapped his way to an even 36 to fin-ish the day three-under.
“I thought I hit the ball really well [in round one], I just kind of made a couple mental mis-takes of leaving myself on the wrong side of the hole,” du Toit said. “[In round two] I did a good job of really focusing on where I wanted my ball to be and I did a good job of executing that.
“I just played solid, pretty well top to bot-tom.”
While du Toit paced his Vandals crew atop the leaderboard, his teammates did their part to keep Idaho in com-plete control of the team lead at Greenhorn Creek.
After two rounds, the Vandals lead the pack
by a wide margin, with second-place Sacra-mento State sitting 12 strokes behind.
“Throughout the year we’ve done a good job of, not really ham-and-egging it, but some guy will have a tough go every once in a while,” du Toit said. “If that guy does have a tough go, the rest of the team usu-ally steps up pretty well. Good teams do that and we’ve continued to do that all year, which has been really nice to see.”
Cockerill carded a second consecutive 72, to sit at even par with a share of second place in-dividually after 36 holes.
Not far behind is Daniel Sutton, who fol-lowed up an open-ing-day 73 with an even-par 72, leaving him in a tie for fifth place on the individual leaderboard.
Rylee Iacolucci rounded out the Van-dals top-10 crew, finish-ing his second round with a two-over 74 after opening the tourna-ment with a five-over 77 on Monday.
Idaho’s Ryan Porch turned around his tour-nament by carding an even-par 72 in round two after battling to a 10-over 82 on opening day. He sits in a tie for 18th heading into the final round of play.
All that remains be-tween du Toit, the Van-dals and the 2015 Big Sky Conference Men’s Golf Championship is 18 holes.
Mother Nature will do as she pleases and the superintendent will have his own say when it comes to pin place-ment. With that in mind, du Toit is keeping a level head as he looks for-ward to the final round.
“If I do see a couple shots the wrong direc-tion, don’t panic,” du Toit said. “Don’t get in my own head. Don’t get rattled. Play shot by shot. By the end of the round [Wednesday], you can’t do anything once you’ve signed the scorecard. Hopefully it will be enough.”
The final round of ac-tion is slated to get un-derway at 7:30 .a.m (Pa-cific time), with du Toit in the 10th group and scheduled to tee off at 8:51 a.m.
du Toit is one of four Canadians competing for the 2015 Big Sky Con-ference Men’s Golf Championship. He is joined by Cockerill (Stony Mountain, Man.) as well as Jack Sedgewick (Newmarket, Ont.) and Sameer Kalia (Camp-bellville, Ont.), both of Binghamton University.
Sedgewick sits 14-over for the tournament and in a tie for 30th.
Kalia turned around his conference champi-onship firing a two-un-der 70 on day two, a 15-stroke improvement on his opening-round 85. He climbed the lad-der into a tie for 21st after round two.
The men’s golf cham-pionship features 40 competitors from eight NCAA institutions. Com-peting for the Big Sky Men’s Golf Champion-ship are: the Bingham-ton University Bearcats (Binghamton, N.Y.), Uni-versity of Hartford Hawks (West Hartford, Conn.), University of Idaho Vandals (Moscow, Idaho), University of North Dakota (Grand Forks, N.D.), University of Northern Colorado Bears (Greeley, Col.), Sacramento State Hor-nets (Sacramento, Calif.), Southern Utah University Thunderbirds (Cedar City, Utah) and Weber State University Wildcats (Ogden, Utah).
The Big Sky Confer-ence is a Division I NCAA conference.
Greenhorn Creek Golf Resort is located in Angels Camp, Calif., ap-proximately 130 km southeast of Sacramen-
to.The 6,801-yard, par-
72 track re-designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr., opened in 1996 and wanders through the rolling Sierra Foothills, featuring 100-year-old
oak trees above under-ground diggings left be-hind from the California Gold Rush of 1848 to 1855.
This year marks the first NCAA Big Sky Con-ference Men’s Golf
Championship since Weber State University claimed the 2002 con-ference title. Men’s golf was absent from Big Sky Conference athletics from 2003 through 2014.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Generally your communication excels, but when others remain nonresponsive, you can get very upset. What you choose to do is likely to shake up the status quo, but it might not draw the response you desire. Tempers suddenly could flare up. To-night: You need to relax a little. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) A caring gesture will warm up emotional waters. You can be direct as long as you are non-judgmental and exhibit depth and caring. A friendship will allow you to spread your wings and understand others better. Let your fun side emerge. To-night: Enjoy every moment. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Listen to a loved one before you make a decision. Someone might be whispering gossip in your ear rather than facts. Go directly to the source. Remain on top of what you need to do. Express your feelings in a way in which they can be heard. To-night: Respond to a friend.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You could be past the point of no return. Your ability to have a discussion despite someone’s manipulation and some excess anger might surprise even you. You tend to understand this per-son better than he or she under-stands him- or herself. Tonight: Say little for now. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Much is happening behind the scenes. The less you say, the more information you will get. Someone who cares a lot about you might not be able to ex-press it. Be kind to this person, as you don’t get friends like this very often. Tonight: A force to be dealt with. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Someone you need to answer to or who can cause commo-tion in your life could be quite enthralled with what you are doing. This person might be unwilling to share his or her thoughts. Pressure builds around a decision to break past barriers. Tonight: The world is your oyster. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
You might not realize how im-portant you are to someone. As a result, you could feel left out. Make a call to a loved one and have a long-overdue discussion. Be aware that communication is off right now. Proceed with care. Tonight: Be more forthright. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your understanding of others easily could pay off. A friend will seem calculating and cool, but he or she could be quite emotional. You’ll see through this person’s defenses, but you might choose to not let him or her know. Tonight: Buy a token of affection for a loved one. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You could feel as if a boss or an associate tends to be over-bearing. You might want to run away. Perhaps a discussion at a later date would be appro-priate. A family member, who likely will have good intentions, could make the situation worse. Tonight: In charge. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Reach out to someone you care about. Your ability to make a difference will take you down a
new path. You could see a situ-ation in a totally different light as a result. Be careful not to be too distracted. Tonight: Listen to an option that you have not yet thought of. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might feel as if a partner is too controlling about a fi-nancial matter. Be careful if you are unhappy, as you are likely to do whatever it takes to stop overthinking the issue. A family member encourages you to spend. Ask yourself why. Tonight: Follow someone else’s lead. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Your emotional mood could evoke a strong reaction from someone who is often too much in his or her own head. Bypass this person and get to the root of the problem. You might not be able to clear the air immedi-ately, but you will soon. Tonight: Visit with a friend. BORN TODAY Publisher William Randolph Hearst (1863), comedian Jerry Seinfeld (1954), composer Duke Ellington (1899)
Dear Annie: My brother is 42 and getting married for the first time. His bride-to-be has been married before. My mom and I would like to give her a bridal shower, but it seems they have most of what they need. However, they don’t own their own home. How do we send out invites and ask guests to give money toward either the cost of the wedding or larger purchases like new furniture or a down payment on a home without being rude? Is there a proper way, or is it not OK to ask for this? -- Stumped in Wisconsin Dear Stumped: It is not OK to expect guests to pay for the wedding. The brid-al couple should have the wedding they can afford. Showers, however, are about gifts, so there is some leeway when it comes to registries. There are now reg-istries for honeymoons, vacations and, yes, houses, including furniture and appliances. If the couple has such reg-istries, the websites can be listed on a separate sheet of paper with the shower invitation. You also can pass along such preferences by word of mouth. But part of a shower is unwrap-ping gifts so everyone can “oooh” and “aaah.” It might be wise for the bride to register at more traditional places where unwanted gifts can be returned or exchanged for something more to her liking (after she writes her thank-you notes, of course). Dear Annie: With your ability to reach many people, how about a plea to have hooks put in all public restrooms? I’m sure other women also hate to put their purses on the bathroom floor in these public places. -- Germs, Yuck Dear Germs: We suspect most wom-en would rather put their purse on their head than drop it on the floor of a public restroom. If there is no hook, try resting the purse strap over the door latch. If that doesn’t work, there may be space on the toilet paper dispens-er. You also could place your purse on your lap (awkward, but doable), or get a purse with a shoulder strap and don’t take it off at all. And you might look into purchasing a little plastic hook that will slip over a door and hold a purse, of-ten available at drugstores or hardware stores. (But do be careful if you hang this over the door, as someone can lift it from the outside.) As always, if there is a manager with whom to register a complaint, do so. Dear Annie: I’d like to help those who feel the same as “Also Lonely in Chesa-peake, Va.,” the 29-year-old virgin who hasn’t found Mr. Right. I know it may sound strange in this day and age, but 15 years ago, my husband was a virgin. Due to low self-esteem and a lack of self-confidence, he was afraid to ask a woman out. We were 43 when we met, and I am so glad. We’ve had 15 very happy years, and I hope there are many more to come. -- Donna Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

In Memoriam
The moment that you left us,Our hearts split in two;One side was filled with
memories;The other side died with you.
Loving you was easy as you made the most of everyday. Missing you is a heartache
that will never go away.
You blessed us with your laughter, your beauty and
your love;And we know you will
continue to shine down from above.
Loving you forever and always,
With all of my liver, cause it’s bigger.
Love Mom, Dad, Katie, Brittany & Bentley

Canadianscontinue to turn to DAILY NEWSPAPERS for breaking news, analysis of the day’s top events and entertaining content, according to the latest NADbank data. “Increased media compe-tition, besides raising the editorial bar at dailies, doesn’t change one crucial fact”, says media buyer Bruce Claassen, CEO of Genesis-Vizeum (Toronto) and chair of Aegis Media Canada. “Daily newspapers offer the same benefi ts they always have: the ability to reach customers quickly. Only with a daily paper are you able to choose to do an ad and run with it in two days, and reach a sizable portion of the population, in a fairly mass, fairly broad and fairly fast way. That’s a set of qualities very few other media can match.”
