On the Sunny Side

December 31, 2020

On the Sunny Side Whenever I think I’ve had it really bad in 2020, I would do well to consider the following verified account of circumstances during the 30 year war between Sweden and Germany. Martin Rinkart, son of a poor coppersmith, became the Lutheran Archdeacon of Eilenburg, Germany in 1617, just before the 30 year war with Sweden broke out. Fugitives from the war sought refuge in Eilenburg. Forced quartering of soldiers, plundering of goods, and seizures of food made life severe and starvation rampant. By 1637 the famine, devastation and pestilence had become so bad that over 8000 people died that year. Among them were most of the town’s council, many pastors, whole families and many children. People would fight over a dead cat. Martin remained healthy, gave away much of what …

A sobering thought

December 31, 2020

To best position us as we go into 2021, an amendment to provincial health officer (PHO) orders has been put in place to reduce the hours that alcohol may be sold or served on New Year's Eve. The selling and serving of alcohol must cease between 8 p.m. (Pacific time) on Dec. 31, 2020, and 9 a.m. on Jan. 1, 2021. As before, liquor sales for onsite consumption must cease at 10 p.m. on all other dates. "This order applies to any establishment that sells or serves alcohol, including bars, restaurants, pubs, liquor stores or grocery stores. "Unless a full meal service is provided, premises that are licensed to serve liquor must close between 9 p.m. on Dec. 31, 2020, and 9 a.m. on Jan. 1, 2021. "We know alcohol can impair people's judgment and their ability to effectively use the layers of …

Best of the season

December 31, 2020

A thought for our care workers. As we are ..now.. a hot spot for Covid-19 it highlights just how important our healthcare workers are. It is not possible to express understanding of your positions with mere words so it must suffice to say: "I hold the deepest respect for all those who move toward danger to be of service to others who are in jeopardy and need. May you and your families be safe and may you find peace amid the turmoil." Thank you for your service   Area “C” Director Rick Knodel …
