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.
Photo Credit- Shauna Davis
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

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.

If you have lost someone you love to an overdose or other

are enduring a devastating loss in a society that blames
the victim and their families and disenfranchises our grief.
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
navigate the traumatic grief associated with addiction

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.

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

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

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

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
