BIGGEST SALE<br />

OF THE YEAR!<br />

“We are fairly new to the area and when we decided to buy a home,<br />

we found using a mortgage broker the easiest way to find the best<br />

financing available. We are very happy we worked with Nancy Trotman<br />

at The Mortgage Centre. It was a great experience!<br />

We can’t thank her enough. Nancy was great to work with.<br />

She was very thorough and professional but friendly and<br />

approachable. She answered all of our questions and concerns.<br />

She made the whole process of getting a mortgage easy; staying<br />

on top of everything every step of the way and made sure all our<br />

deadlines were met.<br />

We appreciate all the time she gave us and highly recommend her for<br />

any mortgage or financing needs.<br />

controlling pests and/or vegetation associated with gas & electrical facilities, rights of way,<br />

wood structures and related operating infrastructure. The overarching goal of the program<br />

is to support the safety and reliability of FortisBC’s gas and electric infrastructure. These<br />

Glyphosate, Imazapyr, Saflufenacil, Flumioxazin, Pyroxasulfone.)<br />

• Pesticides proposed for wood pole maintenance: Cop-R-Plastic, Cobra Wrap Gel, Can-Bor,<br />

Radon detection kits<br />

available at your library<br />

The Kaslo & District Public Library<br />

is offering a radon detection kit that<br />

patrons can borrow to measure radon<br />

levels in their homes or places of business.<br />

The aim of this lending program<br />

is to increase awareness about radon and encourage people to test their homes, as<br />

the majority of the exposures occur where people spent most of their time.<br />

Radon detection kits will be available for three week loan periods. The digital<br />

monitors are extremely easy to use: all one has to do is place the device in a specific<br />

area of the home, or work, for three weeks to determine the radon level in that<br />

environment. The kits come with information about the gas, factors that influence<br />

indoor levels and strategies to reduce exposure.<br />

Radon gas is radioactive and comes from naturally occurring uranium in soils<br />

and rocks; it is an odorless, tasteless and colourless indoor air hazard that can lead<br />

to serious health issues. There are several regions in Canada that have higher levels<br />

of uranium than others, and parts<br />

of the <strong>Kootenay</strong>s/Boundary region fall<br />

into that category.<br />

A group of SFU researchers have<br />

been working with Health Canada<br />

and the BC Lung Association in order<br />

to raise awareness of the dangers of<br />

radon exposure. Through a grant, this<br />

group has made available radon detection<br />

kits to all public libraries in the<br />

<strong>Kootenay</strong>s.<br />

The digital monitors used in this program<br />

are intended for short-term testing<br />

and do not replace the long-term<br />

tests recommended by Health Canada.<br />

Because the loan period needs to be<br />

limited, the intent of providing these<br />

devices is to simply allow patrons to<br />

get an idea of the radon levels in their<br />

home.<br />

Dexter<br />

Dexter is a 1 1/2-year-old mastiff mix that has come to us from Alberta<br />

where he was brought in as a stray. Dexter is an active, playful, friendly<br />

young man that needs a family willing to put some training into him and<br />

keep him active both mentally and physically. He’s good with children,<br />

but as he still acts like a puppy we recommend older children who are<br />

used to being around big dogs. If this beautiful brindle boy sounds like<br />

a perfect match for you, then come down to the West <strong>Kootenay</strong> BCSPCA<br />

and meet this wonderful boy today!<br />

What’s in your farm soil?<br />

Bring soil and compost samples to look at under the microscope<br />

in this hands-on, intensive Soil Biology Identification<br />

workshop and identify the soil organisms on your farm. The<br />

instructor’s microscope will be projected, but bring a microscope<br />

if you have one or can scare one up. (Email andrew@<br />

kbfa.ca for specs on a basic scope).<br />

This workshop is intended for commercial producers with<br />

some knowledge of soils. You will learn how to use a microscope<br />

as a regular farm tool, what organisms to look for in<br />

healthy soils and ways to enhance their habitat and increase<br />

their numbers.<br />

Jo Tobias is a regenerative soils consultant, permaculture<br />

practitioner, educator and owner of RootShoot Soils. Jo will<br />

be presenting the workshop on Monday, <strong>Feb</strong>ruary 17, 9 am to<br />

4:30 pm at the Taghum Hall, 5915 Taghum Hall Road, Nelson.<br />
