Photo: Contributed When Dearborn Ford first opened its doors in Kamloops, it was common for owner Ed Gillespie to not only sell a vehicle, but to teach the buyer how to drive it as well. That’s what happened when you started selling cars in 1924. The showroom carried Model T soft tops and Model A cars, and Gillespie’s staff included a bookkeeper, two mechanics and one salesman. Dearborn Ford is still going strong today and is in the midst of celebrating its 100th anniversary. Current general manager Justin Grover says the dealership’s “deep roots” are what make it so stable in today’s day and age. “Having Ford as our business partner has been great, because they’re always a forward thinking company,” Grover says. "And everybody here works hard, everyone’s dedicated to the store, to the company, and we’re family based." Dearborn Ford started as a gas station with a garage attached to it in 1923. The following year it started selling Ford vehicles, and in 1925 it was officially recognized as a Ford dealer. Its actual location has changed several times, as have its owners, but it has stood the test of time and for the longest period was the largest B.C. dealership outside of Vancouver. The business has grown along with Kamloops, weathering economic shifts, technological advancements and the ever-changing needs of its customers. Dearborn Ford, which is named after the Michigan city in which the company’s vehicles are made, is currently owned by Cam Clark Automotive Group, but the family values that have been a mainstay over the last century have not changed one bit. “Our core values are integrity, growth, commitment, community and fun,” Grover says. “We stay true to our these values while still being part of the larger organization, Cam Clark Ford, which is family based, family driven and family operated. It's great having the support of the group whilst remaining family operated.” Beyond selling vehicles, Dearborn Ford has built its reputation as a community-driven business. Over the decades, the dealership has championed countless local initiatives, from sponsoring youth sports teams and supporting local charities to contributing to Royal Inland Hospital and hosting community events like charity golf tournaments. As Dearborn Ford looks back on a century of achievements, the dealership is also looking forward. With advancements in electric vehicles, sustainability efforts and customer-focused innovations, Dearborn Ford is embracing the future of the automotive industry while honouring the traditions that have defined its legacy. To mark this momentous occasion, Dearborn Ford is inviting the community to a series of celebrations in 2025, including a centennial gala, special promotions and events that honour the people who have made the milestone possible. So stay tuned for more information. To see what a 100-year-old business looks like, feel free to stop by Dearborn Ford at 2555 East Trans-Canada Highway to say hello and check out the seven-acre site, modern showroom and comprehensive service facilities.

US proposes voluntary guidelines for self-driving vehicles in waning days of Biden administration DETROIT (AP) — In the waning days of President Joe Biden's administration, the government's highway safety agency is proposing voluntary safety guidelines for self-driving vehicles. Tom Krisher, The Associated Press Dec 20, 2024 11:13 AM Share by Email Share on Facebook Share on X Share on LinkedIn Print Share via Text Message FILE - A Waymo minivan moves along a city street as an empty driver's seat and a moving steering wheel drive passengers during an autonomous vehicle ride, on April 7, 2021, in Chandler, Ariz. (AP Photo/Ross D. Franklin, File) DETROIT (AP) — In the waning days of President Joe Biden's administration, the government's highway safety agency is proposing voluntary safety guidelines for self-driving vehicles. But a rule from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration putting the plan in place won't be approved before the end of Biden's term in January and likely will be left to whoever runs the agency under Republican Donald Trump. Tesla CEO Elon Musk, whom Trump has named to co-lead a “Department of Government Efficiency” to cut costs and regulations, has floated the idea of him helping to develop safety standards for self-driving vehicles — even though the standards would affect Tesla's automated driving systems. At present there are no federal regulations that specifically govern autonomous vehicles, and any regulation is left to states. However, self-driving vehicles must meet broad federal safety standards that cover all passenger vehicles. Under the agency's proposal, released on Friday, automakers and autonomous vehicle companies could enroll in a program that would require safety plans and some data reporting for autonomous vehicles operating on public roads. To apply companies would have to have independent assessments of their automated vehicle safety processes, and there would be requirements to report crashes and other problems with the vehicles. Companies would have to give NHTSA information and data on the safety of the design, development and operations of the vehicles. The agency would decide whether to accept companies into the program. But auto safety advocates say the plan falls short of needed regulation for self-driving vehicles. For instance, it doesn't set specific performance standards set for the vehicles such as numbers and types of of sensors or whether the vehicles can see objects in low-visibility conditions, they said. “This is a big bunch of nothing,” said Missy Cummings, director of the autonomy and robotics center at George Mason University and a former safety adviser to NHTSA. “It’ll be more of a completely useless paperwork drill where the companies swear they’re doing the right thing.” Michael Brooks, executive director of the nonprofit Center for Auto Safety, said one of the few good things about the plan is that companies will have to report data on crashes and other problems. There have been reports that the Trump administration may want to scrap a NHTSA order that now requires autonomous vehicle companies to report crashes to the agency so it can collect data. A message was left Friday seeking comment from the Trump transition team on crash reporting requirements. Brooks said the incoming administration probably will want to put out its own version of the guidelines. NHTSA will seek public comment on the plan for about 60 days, then the plan would have to wind its way through the federal regulatory process, which can take months or even years. The agency said it believes the plan can accelerate learning about autonomous vehicles as well as work toward future regulations. “It is important that ADS (Automated Driving System) technology be deployed in a manner that protects the public from unreasonable safety risk while at the same time allowing for responsible development of this technology, which has the potential to advance safety,” the proposed rule says. The agency concedes that in the future, there may be a need for NHTSA to set minimum standards for self driving vehicle performance that are similar to mandatory safety standards that govern human-driven cars. But the agency says it now doesn't have data and metrics to support those standards. The voluntary plan would help gather those, the proposal said.

Bombers GM Walters sees no need to blow up roster despite another Grey Cup loss

WAITROSE has finally revealed who stole the dessert in its star-studded "whodunnit"-style Christmas advert. The upmarket retailer has released the final instalment in its two-part series centring around a mystery theft of a festive pudding . The clip sees the ensemble cast from the first advert returning, including Matthew Macfadyen of " Succession ", comedian Joe Wilkinson from "Afterlife" and Rakhee Thakrar of " Sex Education ". Sian Clifford from " Fleabag ", Dustin Demri-Burns of "Slow Horses" and Eryl Maynard of "Agatha Christie’s Miss Marple" are also back. In the first part , the star-studded cast were left stunned after finding out a Waitrose desert had gone missing. The ad ends with self-appointed detective of the crime scene revealing that he had solved the mystery. READ MORE IN MONEY The second one-minute clips picks up right where the first left off, with Macfayden working to establish a motive, switching back to moments on Christmas Day when the guilty party could have gotten their hands on the dessert. We then see the detective working out how someone could pull off such a delicious crime before revealing that Steve (Dustin Demri-Burns) hid the dessert in the gingerbread house under everyone's noses. He is then caught in the act in the family garden shed enjoying the first bite. Once unveiled, the film ends with the whole family digging into the delicious dessert. Most read in Money The first advert has amassed over 150million views across social, TV and digital channels, with viewers flocking to social media to guess who the culprit was. If you haven't seen the first part of the advert, you can watch it below. A poll by Waitrose found that Fig the Cat was the top suspect, with Steve - the real villain - the least suspected. Nathan Ansell, customer director at Waitrose, said: "The last few weeks have been filled with suspicion, guessing and alibis. "I can’t wait for everyone to find out who did it." While Dustin Demri-Burns, who plays food lover Steve said: "I can fully empathise with Steve and his pud-thieving ways. "The pressure of making Christmas wonderful can get to us all - sometimes we just want to eat our pudding in the shed and that’s ok." The ad, which was created by advertising agency Saatchi & Saatchi, will air tonight during Channel 4 's Great British Bake Off and ITV 's I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here .

But if you can't wait until then, it is available preorder now through the supermarket's website for £20. Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how you can save money on your Christmas shopping. Limit the amount of presents - buying presents for all your family and friends can cost a bomb. Instead, why not organise a Secret Santa between your inner circles so you're not having to buy multiple presents. Plan ahead - if you've got the stamina and budget, it's worth buying your Christmas presents for the following year in the January sales. Make sure you shop around for the best deals by using price comparison sites so you're not forking out more than you should though. Buy in Boxing Day sales - some retailers start their main Christmas sales early so you can actually snap up a bargain before December 25. Delivery may cost you a bit more, but it can be worth it if the savings are decent. Shop via outlet stores - you can save loads of money shopping via outlet stores like Amazon Warehouse or Office Offcuts. They work by selling returned or slightly damaged products at a discounted rate, but usually any wear and tear is minor. What are other retailers doing? John Lewis' highly anticipated Christmas advert - called The Gifting Hour - follows a woman's last-minute dash to find a gift for her sister. Sainsbury's has unveiled its festive ad for 2024 , featuring iconic Roald Dahl character the BFG. Meanwhile, Morrisons' Christmas ad has singing oven gloves taking centre stage. German discounter Aldi has teased a "super cute" ad, although shoppers have been left asking after Kevin the Carrot . The Debenhams campaign features an all-star cast - Elizabeth Hurley , Leomie Anderson, Ellie Taylor , and Hannah Cooper-Dommett - as they embrace the ease of online shopping. And the Argos Christmas ad stars the retailers' much-loved mascots, Connie the doll and Trevor the dinosaur. Retailers aren't just releasing Christmas ads this year either - some are shutting up shop for two days over the festive period.

John Arch of La Vista speaks during the second day of the legislative special session in July. Arch on Friday revealed the framework of his plan to permanently restore access to the Legislature's oversight offices tasked with keeping tabs on the state's most troubled agencies. KEARNEY — In a move meant to resolve constitutional concerns raised by Nebraska's attorney general last year, state lawmakers will seek to establish a permanent oversight committee next year to supervise the Legislature's watchdogs tasked with investigating the state’s troubled prison and child welfare systems. The plan to establish the new committee, which Speaker John Arch of La Vista and legislative staffers unveiled at an annual gathering of lawmakers Friday, comes more than a year after Attorney General Mike Hilgers suggested the watchdogs, formally known as the Office of the Inspectors General, were unconstitutional in a legal opinion his office released in August 2023. Though Hilgers' opinion was nonbinding, Nebraska's Departments of Correctional Services and Health and Human Services — both arms of the executive branch — almost immediately shut off access the inspectors general had to agency facilities and records, leaving the Legislature without oversight of the agencies for six months. People are also reading... Lawmakers established the watchdogs in the 2010s to keep tabs on the agencies following a disastrous attempt to privatize Nebraska's child welfare system and a murder spree carried out by an inmate the prison system had inadvertently released early. The lockout ended in April, when lawmakers reluctantly approved an agreement with the executive branch to temporarily restore access to the watchdogs while a special committee of lawmakers studied the structure of legislative oversight functions to come up with a long-term solution. The special committee's plan — which Arch said will come in the form of a 126-page bill that is still being drafted — could create an oversight division within the Legislature that would supervise the inspectors general and the Legislative Audit Office, which for now is governed by the Performance Audit Committee. That committee would be replaced by the new, nine-member oversight committee. Under the plan, the Legislature would hire a director of legislative oversight who would appoint the inspectors general tasked with keeping tabs on the troubled agencies to five-year terms. The plan calls for the legislative oversight committee to be notified prior to the release of any investigative reports compiled by the watchdogs. The plan is meant to establish an obvious chain-of-command from lawmakers to the watchdogs in an attempt to address Hilgers' claim that the Legislature had violated Nebraska's constitution by permanently delegating their oversight authority to the inspectors general, whom Hilgers suggested are "unsupervised." The plan would also remove from state law a provision that had required Nebraska's prison and child welfare systems to provide direct computer access to the inspectors general, who were previously able to review incident reports and other internal agency documents in real time. The proposal would also create a process to allow for the executive or judicial branches to object to disclosing "legally privileged" information to the watchdogs. The new plan would allow law enforcement agencies to decline to provide information to the inspectors general, who would also be required to suspend an investigation at the request of a police department. And the proposal would make it illegal for the watchdogs to disclose any confidential information or records provided to the newly created oversight division. In all, the plan Arch and legislative staffers outlined Friday marks the framework of a weaker legislative oversight system than the one that already exists in state law — which Nebraska's executive branch has been in violation of for more than a year. Arch said he is "sure that there will be those who want to see us go further" but said the plan represents an attempt to rebuild the Legislature's oversight framework while addressing Hilgers' constitutional concerns. In his 38-page opinion last year, Hilgers had said the watchdogs “untrammeled power to impede, control and access” information of other government branches had violated the state constitution's separation of powers clause. "I'm very hopeful that we can establish a way of relating (with the executive branch) that can put us in compliance with the statute and provide us with the information that we need," Arch said. John Arch Arch said he was confident the plan would draw broad support from lawmakers, some of whom have been critical of his handling of the oversight lockout initiated by the executive branch. The Legislature initially retained legal counsel in the wake of Hilgers' opinion and the subsequent lockout, mulling a legal fight with Gov. Jim Pillen's executive branch over the issue, but instead opted to try to resolve the dispute without litigating it in court. Omaha Sen. Machaela Cavanaugh, who was one of 15 lawmakers on the special committee that concocted the plan, said members haven't seen a draft of the bill Arch is set to propose next month and "so it's hard to have firm opinions and thoughts on it." Cavanaugh "The devil is definitely in the details, and I'm concerned about how this is going to be executed, because to me, on face value, it looks like we are diminishing our ability to provide oversight of the executive branch," she said, adding: "It's creating additional obstacles to transparency and giving more authority to the executive branch to refuse transparency." Lawmakers may have little choice but to support the plan. The stopgap agreement the Legislature entered into with the executive branch to restore oversight access is set to expire at the end of the 90-day legislative session that kicks off Jan. 8.
