A vision for public mental 

health care 

The time is now for public mental health 

care. Our current public health care system 

covers few mental health resources, and what 

is covered is often too little, too late. It doesn’t 

have to be this way. 

In this second part of a mental health panel 

series, the BC Health Coalition will bring 

together key leaders in the area of mental 

health to explore a vision for public mental 

health care. We will spotlight community 

based mental health programs that are paving 

the way for providing accessible and publicly 

funded mental health supports. 

The webinar will be at noon on Nov 25, 

2021. For more information and to register,

Patient advisory group 

seeks new members 

Are you interested in making health care 

more patient and family-centred and equitable? 

The Kootenay Boundary Patient Advisory 

Committee & Community (PACC) may 

be the group for you and it’s looking for new 

members! 

“Patients are central to conversations about 

the health system, from the bedside to the 

boardroom,” shares Mindy Smith, PACC 

Chair. “Our members bring their experiences 

as patients and citizens to provide 

perspectives on important issues to health 

care providers and policymakers in our 

region. We want to increase our membership 

to better represent the communities of 

Kootenay Boundary, both geographical and 

identity-based.” 

The PACC provides input into decisions 

related to the Kootenay Boundary Collaborative 

Services Committee (CSC), a group of 

health care leaders, providers & coordinators, 

and Aboriginal and patient partners. The CSC 

is tasked with advancing primary health care 

through enhanced team-based care in acute, 

residential, and community care settings. 

Dr. Shelina Musaji, local physician and 

CSC Co-Chair, shares “patients have been 

instrumental in the design and implementation 

of the Primary Care Network (PCN), 

and this has contributed to its early success. 

The CSC works well as a group and we value 

our collaboration with patient partners. Their 

voices are important to ensure that patients 

are well-represented in all our discussions 

about health care in the Kootenay Boundary.” 

Suzanne Lee, Co-Chair of the CSC and 

Director, Clinical Operations Boundary & 

Kootenay Boundary Primary Care Lead with 

Interior Health echoes this view. “We must 

bring the patient voice to the forefront of our 

work if we are to transform our current system 

of care into a patient and family-centred 

system that represents the people we serve 

and provides the best possible outcomes. We 

must listen to the patient experience to make 

the decisions that will transform health care.” 

The Kootenay Boundary Patient Advisory 

Committee & Community is warmly inviting 

residents to explore their new website at 

https://kbpacc.ca to learn more about their 

work and how to get involved. For more 

information, please reach out to pacc@divisionsbc.ca 

or call 604.373.9466.

“If you could say it in words, there would 

be no reason to paint”-Edward Hopper 

Creativity and curiosity go hand in hand 

to pave the way toward greater intelligence 

and personal expression. The brain’s elasticity 

strengthens and expands when people are 

curious and seek different experiences. 

A way to foster both creativity and curiosity 

is through art education. Different art forms 

push students to take up the challenge of 

creating personal works of art. Students forget 

their concerns as their thoughts become 

focused on the journey of a creative activity. 

Their innate curiosity to try new things, make 

new projects, and learn new art forms ignites 

their creativity. 

The process of creating art expresses ideas, 

information, and dreams. Art builds a sense 

of self, self-esteem, and the well-deserved 

feeling of pride in creating a personal piece of 

artwork. “You get what you give…except with 

art you always get so much more,” says Shauna 

Davis, the Seven Summits Centre for Learning 

Art Education teacher. “Art is an activity 

that allows students to learn through discovery 

and to display their personal creativity.” 

Students do this by slowing down and taking 

time to 

observe. 

Participating 

in the 

process of 

making art 

encourages 

students 

to look at 

the world 

differently 

as they discover 

hidden 

talents 

and newfound 

abilities. 

Davis 

particularly 

likes the clay 

project her 

art students 

completed. 

“I like to 

begin with 

artwork 

students 

are going to 

be good at 

because it 

builds interest 

and confidence,” 

she 

says.

Davis describes her class workshop as a 

secure place for students to express themselves. 

This leads to optimism as students 

spread the message that it is fun making 

things. “Art is not out of reach whether a 

student believes, or has been told, that they 

are good at it or not,” says Davis. She adds, “I 

firmly believe that art is for everyone.” 

Everyone has art-making skills as they are 

transferable from the other areas of their 

lives. For example, Davis explains that the 

fine motor skills start from infancy and continue 

to develop when students learn cursive 

writing. As children learn to link letters with 

pencil to paper, the more neatly the child tries 

to write, the more they sharpen their future 

drawing skills. It is just a matter of connecting 

these familiar skills to the techniques of 

art that they may have never tried before. 

Davis’s greatest joy is when students come 

in with a negative idea about art, and from 

the instructed activities, they begin to see that 

they too can make amazing artwork pieces. 

“Students are often rushing to get through 

the project, and I like to give them extra help 

to conceptualize possibilities, get them to do 

more with each project as I always leave room 

for improvement by meeting them where 

they are at and nudging them to experience 

more. After all, art is just a bunch of teachable 

skills that with curiosity and time, everyone 

can learn to take part in creating individual 

works of art,” says Davis. “Being a teacher, 

workshop instructor, and photographer 

allows me to meet people that I otherwise 

wouldn’t meet, and help people to learn art 

which gives me a greater appreciation for my 

artistic path in life.” 

Getting students more involved in visual 

arts starts with exposure, interesting options, 

engagement, and time. “I make it my goal to get 

the students to work with various types of art 

material in class,” she says. “They really enjoy 

the different paths art can take them.” Currently, 

Seven Summits students attend art workshops 

throughout the entire year. This immersion in 

the arts allows for students to gain from the 

many benefits that result from curiosity, creativity, 

and, of course, art exposure.

Two art exhibits in the Langham 

Come on in to Kaslo’s Langham galleries where we currently 

have two excellent art exhibits reflecting two very different 

styles, media and content. 

In the Main Gallery we have an arresting and deeply affecting 

show from Tl’azt’en artist Damian John. Indian Agency 

uses the approachable medium of the comic book to explore 

the traumatic and difficult story of Indigenous peoples and 

the Indian Act. While this is a story of grief and pain, there is 

also growth, hope, and ultimately, resiliency. 

John says of the exhibit, “What if I reworked the images 

in comic book cover art to address some of the complicated, 

unusual, and deeply disturbing aspects of the Indian act and 

the treatment of indigenous people in Canada? If I mimicked 

the cover art closely, would it hold some power in explaining 

CHRISTMAS 

comes early 

at Kaslo ACE! 

both the ethereal nature and the very real impact of the story 

that is our history? How different would life be if we did things 

another way?” 

John will be offering an artist talk on his compelling exhibit 

Saturday November 27th 4pm in the Langham theatre. 

Admission by donation, max 50 people, all attendees must 

show proof of vaccine passport at the door. 

In the Lobby gallery we have a photo exhibit from Kaslo 

emerging artist Robert Banks Foster. Entitled Reality is 

Clumpy, the show encompasses 22 black and white photographs 

portraying trees over the winter of 2019/20, with the 

title of each piece forming a singular poem. 

Exhibits run through December 12. Gallery hours are 

Thursday-Sunday, 1-4pm.

ES:MO comes to the Langham 

With over a dozen JUNO nominations between them, Elizabeth 

Sheppard and Michael Occhipinti have been exceptional musical 

creatives on the Montreal & Toronto Jazz/Folk scenes for decades. 

Their new project ES:MO mixes both original composition and 

iconic Canadian songs arranged for Occhipinti’s slick eclectic guitar 

stylings and Sheppard’s warm unique voice & adventurous keyboard 

compositions. 

Occhipinti has been called a guitar chameleon for his ability to 

work with many colours in different genres, while Shepherd’s velvety 

voice and soulful piano compositions also resist easy labeling. 

Together they create a magical and compelling world of sound that 

can have an audience holding it’s breathe one moment, and moving 

in rhythm the next. 

ES:MO are touring across Canada with their latest album The 

Weight of Hope, which includes songs by Canadian legends Leonard 

Cohen, Bruce Cockburn, and Gordon Lightfoot, as well as forgotten 

Toronto soul legend Jackie Shane. Don’t miss this night of 

wonderful music Live in the Langham Theatre Thursday November 

25 at 7pm. Tickets $20 at Sunnyside or Willow in Kaslo.

No one wants to believe that a loss like this 

could happen to them.

I have walked the walk. I am here to support you as you

Mandates affect us all 

Nobel Prize winning peacemaker Desmund 

Tutu, teaches that “Freedom is Indivisible”. 

We are in a very challenging time. Not 

taking a side and standing for unity is more 

important than ever. Divisions are established 

and people on both sides have much evidence 

that they are right. There is a steady stream 

of information and misinformation, leading 

citizens on both sides to boycott or harass or 

support specific establishments, service providers 

and individuals. This righteousness 

and the fear surrounding it could prove to 

be as dangerous as the virus or the vaccine, 

depending on your stance. 

History has many examples of how, even 

with good intentions, we can be convinced 

to do horrible things to those identified as 

“other”. Many people are now aware of the 

impacts of intergenerational trauma; how 

harm done to human beings can be passed

down for generations. What we do today and 

how we treat each other matters. 

If in fact we are all connected, it means 

when some community members are suffering 

we are all impacted. The beginning of 

the pandemic inspired much support and 

kindness in our community. We were all in 

it together. Since the passports and mandates 

have been imposed, we are separated, even 

influenced to dissolve once loving relationships. 

Many professionals: doctors, nurses, 

teachers, police officers, who were admired 

and appreciated last week are now disposable. 

When both sides think they have the answer 

and are righteously holding their side of the 

argument – we completely lose the bigger 

picture. 

So what is the bigger picture? 

Currently 85.7% of BC is fully vaccinated; 

yet the health officials continue to pressure 

the province for a 100% vaccination rate. 

Qualified workers, who serve 

the public, signed contracts 

that did not include a vaccine 

requirement, are now unilaterally, 

being put on leaves of 

absences without pay with the 

threat of being terminated. They 

are not being given severance 

or unemployment insurance. 

Nor is consideration for medical 

exemptions or acquired immunity 

through recovering from 

COVID 19 even being acknowledged. 

Other effective safety 

measures are also not being allowed. We are 

told that mandates and vaccination alone are 

the only way to fulfill our social contract to 

care for each other and stop the spread of the 

virus. 

We have to ask is this fair, logical, moral or 

even legal? How many local businesses will 

close leading us to a recession and potential 

depression? Will our former colleagues 

become homeless when they can’t pay their 

rent or mortgage? Will they need to use the 

food bank to feed their children? How many 

of us have the privilege to be able survive 

beyond a couple of months without income? 

Are these mandates justified for public 

safety when the vaccination rates are so high 

or is our government behaving unreasonably 

and irresponsibly? If an 85% vaccination rate 

isn’t doing the job, will a 100% rate do it? 

It is the BC government who made the 

decision, not the unvaccinated, to underfund 

the healthcare system in our area for decades 

and now it’s poised to stress it even further 

by forcing understaffing in the middle of a 

pandemic. This will and already has affected 

those with chronic illness and those in need 

of surgery. If a recent experience in the Kaslo 

area is any indication, where after calling 911, 

the caller was put on hold for 20 minutes 

before they were able to talk to an ambulance 

dispatcher, our safety is being seriously compromised. 

Would you prefer a paramedic or 

nurse with a health status different than yours 

or have no help at all when your loved one 

needs immediate medical attention?

Government enforcement of mandates has 

and will increase unemployment numbers 

and numbers of people living in poverty, as 

they let go of a thousand health care workers 

in Interior Health followed by other essential 

workers and public servants. This will 

have a profound impact on our economy and 

disrupt services including the food supply 

chains. Inflation is already happening. If we 

don’t unify, all of us are partially responsible 

for businesses closing, foreclosures on homes, 

bankruptcies, and increased mental health 

distress including: depression, suicide, addiction, 

domestic violence for adults and children 

alike. Is it possible that the government 

is creating an unnecessary crisis? 

With Remembrance Day just last week, let’s 

use this opportunity to learn from history, 

unite and preserve our services, our relationships 

and our community. Unifying is a 

logical choice, a compassionate choice. We 

have the chance to get this right. Let’s work 

together to find the answers to keep us all safe 

and thriving as a community.

Trail and Beaver Valley 

residents 

The City of Trail and the Regional District 

of Kootenay Boundary Beaver Valley Regional 

Parks and Regional Trails Service (BVPARTS) 

are pleased to announce they have successfully 

negotiated and approved a 5-year (60 months) 

recreation services agreement. The reciprocal 

agreement permits residents in the Beaver 

Valley (Montrose and Fruitvale) and Electoral 

Area A to access the city’s recreational facilities 

and programs at the reduced Trail Resident 

Program fee and allows City of Trail residents 

to access all Beaver Valley recreational facilities 

and programs. 

All City of Trail recreational facilities, services, 

and programs are covered in the agreement, 

including the Trail Aquatic & Leisure 

Centre, the Trail Memorial Centre, and the 

Willi Krause Fieldhouse. “We all benefit when 

we work together as neighbours. This agreement 

allows all Beaver Valley and Area A 

residents to continue to enjoy access to high 

quality recreation facilities and programming. 

Children can learn to swim year-round and 

our communities can take advantage of the 

excellent recreation opportunities available. I 

encourage everyone to stay active this winter 

and have fun!” said Area A Director Ali Grieve, 

RDKB Beaver Valley Regional Parks and 

Regional Trails committee chair.City of Trail 

Snow removal in Trail 

Trail has 76 kilometers (152 lane kilometers) 

of roads to maintain and has 14 pieces of equipment 

including loaders, sand spreaders, snow 

plows, and a grader. From mid-November to 

March, the city has at least one employee on duty 

24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The number of 

employees involved in snow removal is dependent 

on the amount and duration of snowfall. 

Snow Removal Priorities 

City streets are maintained on a priority basis 

as follows: 

#1 Priority - Major collectors and emergency 

routes, i.e. Hospital Hill, Warfield Hill Road 

(from Warfield Teck Operations to Highway 22), 

Fifth Avenue Hill, and hills with extreme gradients 

and significant volume, i.e. Green Avenue. 

#2 Priority - Bus routes. 

#3 Priority - Downtown core, including 

downtown parking lots and the Trail & Leisure 

Aquatic Centre. 

#4 Priority - Hills with lighter traffic volumes, 

i.e. Lilac Crescent, Park Street. 

#5 Priority - All remaining residential streets 

and parking lots. 

When all 5 priorities have been accomplished, 

lanes will be plowed and all other streets will be 

widened.

Afterschool care coming 

to Winlaw 

Winlaw Elementary School will be supporting 

their youngest learners and families with 

the Seamless Day Kindergarten pilot program, 

slated to begin providing after-school 

care services this coming January, 2022. 

The new childcare, Kindergarten and support 

services facility has been supported by 

the Ministry of Education and Columbia 

Basin Trust and is part of the government’s 

10-year Childcare BC plan, as the province 

works to build an inclusive universal childcare 

system that meets growing childcare 

needs in BC communities. 

The childcare pilot program at Winlaw Elementary 

will launch in the new year,offering 

space for 12 students and will be limited to 

after-school care only at this time. Winlaw 

students, aged Kindergarten to Grade 5, are 

eligible to apply and parents are encouraged 

to contact the school principal, Monica 

Doyle, at monica.doyle@sd8.bc.ca 

“Our participation in this pilot will improve 

access to after school care that parents genuinely 

need in our district,” said Superintendent 

Trish Smillie. “It is an example of a 

community coming together to support our 

youngest learners. I am looking forward to 

how this program will provide the ability for 

busy parents to get to work and knowing their 

children are cared for and learning.” 

The Kootenay Lake Board of Education will 

continue to work with parents, the Ministry 

of Education, and municipal governments to 

be innovative about how to create supportive 

environments for early learners.

It’s cold out there 

The Coldest Night of the Year is a 

covid-safe, family-friendly walk to raise 

money for charities serving people experiencing 

homelessness, hurt, and hunger. 

Walk with the Nelson CARES family 

of supporters virtually or in-person on 

February 26, 2022 – there’s a place for 

everyone! 

At Nelson CARES we reach out to 

support the most vulnerable people in 

the community. One of our goals is the 

preservation, maintenance and development 

of affordable housing in Nelson, 

British Columbia. The focus of the last 

three CNOY walks was the refurbishment 

of our downtown affordable housing 

building, Ward Street Place. This 

year the funding focus shifts to support 

individuals. 

Our Ready For Home program provides 

supports to homeless individuals 

ready for housing, individuals newly 

housed and those at risk of losing their 

housing. At the core of Ready For Home 

is a paid staff member who works oneon-one 

with individuals to find housing, 

to transition into affordable housing 

and to sustain them in their existing 

accommodation. 

At Nelson CARES respect for every 

individual is an ordinary everyday occurrence. 

Please join us and show your 

respect to all individuals in our wonderful 

community.

Action on old-growth 

Today I am writing with an update on historic 

new action to better care for BC’s old 

growth forests. 

First of all, I want to thank everyone that 

took the time to communicate with me, my 

team, and shared their thoughts on Old 

Growth. It helps to inform my work on your 

behalf, and your engagement is crucial to 

our democracy. 

I know many of you are celebrating the 

news of the deferrals however it is important 

to also recognize that some families are 

terrified about job loss. Our government is 

going to be working closely with communities, 

workers and companies impacted 

by the announcement to ensure people are 

supported. 

Over the summer, our government 

worked closely with independent experts on 

the Old Growth Technical Advisory Panel 

to identify the most at-risk old growth forests 

in the province. The areas proposed for 

these deferrals include all 900,000 hectares 

of the area identified by the expert panel as 

“Ancient” and “Remnant” forests. These are 

the oldest and rarest forests in the province. 

Our commitment to reconciliation is at 

the forefront of this process. The days of 

making unilateral decisions without First 

Nations rights and title holders are over. Our 

intention is to move forward on deferrals as 

quickly as we can while respecting our commitment 

to work with rights and title holders 

on important decisions like this. 

Let’s be clear: our work on old growth isn’t 

done. These deferrals align with recommendations 

of the Old Growth Strategic Review 

panel and give us time to engage with First 

Nations, communities, workers, and industry 

to build a plan to take care of all our 

forests. 

We’re implementing a long-term vision 

that protects old growth while ensuring 

workers and communities benefit from 

secure and innovative forest jobs for generations 

to come. We’re supporting workers 

and communities with a comprehensive 

package including employment opportunities, 

education and training options, or 

funds to bridge to retirement. 

Our forests make BC an incredible place 

to live. We owe it to our children and grandchildren 

to better care for our old growth 

forests. Thank you for your interest in protecting 

them. 

As always, if you have any questions or 

concerns about COVID-19 or any other 

provincial issue, please don’t hesitate to 

reach out. We are here to help you. My office 

can be reached at 1-887-388-4498 or Brittny.Anderson.MLA@leg.bc.ca. 

In Your Service, Brittny Anderson
