Sportsfieldsneedrepairs
BY CORNELIA [email protected]
The sports fields at the Chilli-wack school district’s $46.4million pair of brand new
schools need fixing.“At one point we had ducks
swimming in the middle of thefield,” Rosedale traditional com-munity school principal HelenPlummer told the Times. “As funnyas that is, when you’re standingthere looking at your brand newfield going, ‘Really?’ there’s a prob-lem.”
Since the new kindergarten-to-Grade 9 school opened last Janu-ary, students there have had onlylimited use of the fields, and nextmonth they will be shut downaltogether for work that could takeuntil next spring.
Dra i n a g e a n d u n e v e n n e s scaused by settling are the problem,Plummer said, and they’ve beenobvious since before the schooleven opened.
“Everybody knew: the contrac-tors, our district team. Everybodyknew that the fields were an issue,”she said.
Fields at Yarrow elementary,Chilliwack’s newest school, willalso be shut down next month toaddress drainage issues.

The Chilliwack school boardwill get its first look at nextyear’s 2013-14 operating bud-
get Tuesday.The proposed financial plan,
which totals $123,619,241, will dipinto the district’s accumulated sur-plus to the tune of $909,103, com-pared to $3.2 million last year.
This year’s deficit figure includes a$194,000 operating deficit as well as$500,000 that will go to completingthe district’s $2.5 million technologyplan launched in 2009 and another$215,000 in restricted surplus mon-ey that will be used for the district’sKeeping Kids in School program foraboriginal students.
The plan would leave the district’srestricted surplus (money that mustbe used for specific purposes likeaboriginal education) at just under $4million and its unrestricted reservefund at $694,103, for a total accumu-lated surplus of about $4.7 million.
The proposed budget features$125,000 in new spending to addressrecommendations in the district’sspecial education review, includingan extra educational psychologist.
The preliminary figures also callfor $260,000 more to be spent onbusinessservices,including$180,000for three extra custodians and custo-dial supplies for the new Chilliwacksecondary that will open its doors inSeptember.

2013CCNABLUE
RIBBON
BY PAUL J. HENDERSON
City hall will consider heritagestatus for two historic Chilli-wack homes after receivingrequests from the property
owners.The owners of properties known as
Stonehurst and the Gervan Residencehave voluntarily requested heritagedesignation, which will be consideredafter a public hearing on June 4.
The designation amounts to a noticeon title that regulates any changes tothe exterior of the buildings.
The applications come on the heelsof council approving a new version ofthe “out of date” heritage designationapplication process at its May 7 meet-ing. The new protocol means propertyowners can apply to voluntarily giveheritage status to their buildings orsites.
Some communities have createdheritage commissions to help desig-nate heritage properties, but staff saythey have received so few requests that
a commission was not recommended.Instead, the city paid for statements
of significance to be prepared by Van-couver consultant Donald Luxton &Associates to describe the heritage val-ue and “character-defining” elementsof the homes.
Stonehurst at 46290 Yale Rd. has beenowned by Rob O’Brennan and GwynethJones since 2011, but is best knownrecently as La Mansione restaurant.
The home was built by ChaunceyErwin Eckert in 1909. It has four levels,17 rooms and is described by the con-sultant as a “grand mansion” built dur-ing the Edwardian era boom period.
“It reflects the optimism of thetimes,” according to the report.
The consultant says the home “is avaluable record of the urban and socialdevelopment of the residential areaadjacent to downtown Chilliwack inthe early years of the 20th century.”
The latter statement also applies tothe Gervan Residence at 46054 FirstAve. Owner Linda Phelps has alsoapplied for heritage status for herhome.
The Gervan Residence was built byHarry Herbert and Hattie Gervan in1911. Harry went on to serve as alder-man three times and mayor in 1913.
Council gave introduction and firstreading to the heritage designationbylaws for both homes at the May 21meeting and public hearings will beheld on June 4.
AChilliwack man is inhospital and recov-ering from injuries
sustained when he fell off abalcony Sunday evening.
Mountiessaytheyrespond-ed to a call at the 5600 blockof Teskey Way around 8:30p.m. Sun-d a y t oassist withan injuredman.
A 2 2 -y e a r - o l dman hadfallen fromthe third-storey balcony of atownhouse, police say.
He sustained non-life-threatening injuries.
RCMP spokesperson Cpl.Len Vannieuwenhuizen saidthe “police investigation con-cluded that this was not acriminal issue and that drugsand alcohol may have been afactor in this incident.”
Avacant house sus-tained damage aftera fire broke out early
Friday morning.Fire crews arrived at the
house, in the 7400 block ofChilliwack River Road, tofind smoke and flame com-ing from the front of thetwo-storey residence.
Firefighters entered, foundfire and smoke in the base-ment and on the first floor,and knocked the flamesdown. Officials say the homesustained heavy fire andsmoke damage to the base-ment and first floor.
The cause is under investi-gation.

The consolidation and expan-sion of Unity Christ ianschool has been an unex-
pected boon to young families inthe Eastern Hillsides, where thereare few places to run and play.
The small private school com-pleted a $3.45 million buildingproject at its Hack Brown Roadcampus this spring to bring its ele-mentary school (previously housedat a separate McNaught Road cam-pus) under the same roof as it mid-dle and high school.
Along with additions to thebuilding, the expansion includeda brand new $110,000 playgroundand will also see the installation ofa new $170,000 sports field by nextspring.
The playground has been a god-send to kids in the neighbourhoodabove the school, according tofamilies who live nearby.
“It’s fantastic for my kids,”neighbour Lorraine Brown toldthe Times. “They have no play-ground up here. There’s nothingfor them to play on but the streetor our backyard, so it gives the kids
a safe place to play. There’s lots ofkids here, so it’ll benefit the entireneighbourhood.”
The Eastern Hillsides develop-ment is chock full of young fami-lies, and a lack of green space forkids to play is a common com-plaint.
“When they put this develop-
ment in they were supposed tohave green space for the neigh-bourhood, and that was con-sidered to be the creek,” saidStephanie Brown, another parentwho lives close to the school. “Butthe houses along the creek, eventhough they don’t own right up tothe creek, they have blocked it all
off so you can’t access it.”“There’s really nowhere else close
enough to walk or even bike ridewhere you could run free and havesome fun,” said another mom whodidn’t want to be named.
It’s a problem Unity administra-tors were well aware of, said vice-principal Mike Campbell, and
the playground was built with theneighbourhood in mind.
“We recognize there’s no otherplayground or field within fivekilometres of here,” Campbell said.“We thought about that when webuilt it. We wanted to do a good jobfor our community.”
The playground is easily acces-sible by new stairs and a new walk-way that lead up into the adjacentdevelopment, and Campbell saidthe playground is usually hop-ping with neighbourhood kids byaround 5 p.m. on school days.
Despite the benefit the new facil-ities represent, however, the schoolhasn’t gotten a lot of help fundingthe project so far.
Because independent schoolsdon’t receive capital funding fromthe provincial government, Unityhas had to rely on donations andthe sale and development of prop-erty owned by the school to fundthe expansion.
The school’s requests for Chilli-wack Foundation and Federal Infra-structure Grants were denied, butprincipal Ed Noot said he is still indiscussions with the City of Chilli-wack about a possible arrangementinvolving the playground.
◗ All of Unity Christian’s shiny newfacilities will be on display thisThursday during an open houseand barbecue from 5:30-7:30p.m. Tours will be available. Formore information, visit www.uni-tychristian.ca.

The skull tattoo was a dead give-away.
Called to Prospera Credit Unionon Nov. 18 after a report of a rob-bery, investigators found themselveslooking at video of the distinctivelytattooed head of James Turnbull.
Eighteen months later, Turnbullwas in Provincial Court as Crowncounsel Brian Fell asked a judge tosend the repeat offender to prisonfor between five and seven years.
The robbery was “doomed to fail”from the outset, according to Turn-bull’s lawyer Suzanne Paterson, whoasked for house arrest.
A large man, Turnbull had alreadybeen designated as a prolific offend-er by Chilliwack RCMP. He enteredthe credit union wearing a hoodedparka, but complied when asked toremove the hood, the court heard.
When he reached the teller, hepassed a note that read:
“I want $15,000 in 50s and 100s.Do not put a dye pack in or hell topay. Think of your customers . . .someone is outside with a scanner.Do your job, no [one] will get hurt.”
Turnbull left with just $400.After quickly identifying their sus-
pect, police immediately headed to
the house of Turnbull’s sometimes-girlfriend. She arrived on the sceneto find the Mounties had not yetapproached her home.The girlfriendinvited the officers inside, sayingTurnbull should not be there. WhenMounties entered, they immediatelyspotted Turnbull, who was arrestedwithout incident.
In asking for a stiff sentence, Fellcited a pre-sentence report com-piled by Turnbull’s probation offi-cer.
He said the report “shows some-one who is entrenched into crimi-nality at an early age and has never
taken any steps to rehabilitate him-self.”
Turnbull has a long criminalrecord, and has previously spenttime in jail for mischief in connec-tion to a 2009 fire, and to offences in2006 and 2002.
But Paterson took issue with thereport and its insistence that Turn-bull hadn’t been trying to turn hislife around.
She called Turnbull to the witnessstand, from which he told the courtthat he had been clean of drugs for17 months since weaning himselfoff methadone.
He said he had gotten clean ina recovery house and had alreadybeen admitted to a Chilliwack RiverValley treatment centre.
“Forty-three-years-old, I’m burntout man,” he said. “I’m just donewith it.
“Now it’s time for me to get up,man up and go back to being nor-mal.”
He said he had burnt his bridgesand distanced himself from friendsconnected to the drug world.
“I’m not a bad guy,” he said. “I’vemade bad decisions.”
The sentencing hearing will con-tinue at a later date, with Fell giventhe opportunity to cross-examineTurnbull’s testimony.

The twinning of theTrans Mountain oilpipeline through Chilli-
wack took another step for-ward on Thursday as ownerKinder Morgan filed a projectdescription with the NationalEnergy Board (NEB).
The filing comes on theheels of the NEB’s approvalof how Trans Mountain willcharge customers to send oilthrough the expanded pipe-line.
Kinder Morgan’s $5.4-bil-lion proposal would nearlytriple the capacity of the60-year-old pipeline from300,000 barrels per day (bpd)to 890,000 bpd. This wouldinvolve 981 kilometres of newburied pipeline, new pumpstations and tanks, along withnew tanker loading facili-ties at Burnaby’s WestridgeMarine Terminal, accordingto the project description.
The company has remainedsilent on the routing for thenew pipe, saying only that itwould follow the existing right-of-way wherever possible.
In a May 23 letter accompa-nying the application to theNEB, Kinder Morgan Canadapresident Ian Anderson saidthe company has begun itsconsultation with aboriginalpeoples, landowners, munici-palities and other stakehold-ers.
“Trans Mountain is work-ing with these groups tobetter define the issues andconcerns and address themthrough development of ourfacilities application and theproject,” Anderson wrote.
The filing with the NEBis part of the pre-applica-tion process, which ini-tiates certain activitiesincluding preliminary aborig-inal engagement and otherpublic consultation.
According to the NEB, theproject description filing
allowsforthoseaffectedtocon-tact the proponent for moreinformation and for those whowant to participate in thehearing process to organize“to present an effective andefficient single voice on oneor more issues at a hearing.”
Groups can also inquire ifthey qualify for the NEB par-ticipant funding, which isavailable for those with direct,local interest in the pipelineexpansion and those who“would play an important anddistinct role in the process.”
Local opposition to theproposal has come from anti-pipeline group PIPE UP. Thegroup points to oil spills frompipelines over the years as areason to oppose the project.The closest to home was the110,000-litre oil leak on Jan.24, 2012 at the company’sSumas Mountain terminalsite.
In 2007, a contractor inBurnaby ruptured the pipe-line spraying 234,000 litres ofcrude oil into the residentialneighbourhood. Burnaby-Douglas NDP MP KennedyStewart has come out againstthe project, calling it a baddeal for B.C.
“We don’t really in B.C. seeany benefits from that,” Stew-art said, suggesting the bulkof any taxes on the revenueare federal. “This new pipe-line is for export only. There’sno local revenue share. Byall accounts, there will be nolocal jobs and there will be nolocal use of the product.
“On the other side, we’ll betaking the risks.”
Another local issue cameup when the Fraser ValleyRegional District (FVRD)approved the company’srequest to conduct a corridorstudy through the CheamLakeWetlands Regional Park.
Trans Mountain expects tofile its expansion applicationin late 2013. If approved, theproject would be operationalby 2017.

Given the number of realinjustices and outragesin the world, it’s probably
wrong of me to flip out aboutgrammar and word usage.
Especially since I am far fromperfect myself, in both speech andwriting.
But a few days back, the phrase“on accident” hit my brain again,and I cringed.
I’ve always, always used “by acci-dent” and “on purpose.” For thevast majority of English-speakingpeople, “by accident” is consideredcorrect.You will scarcely ever see“on accident” in print or on TV,unless you’re watching a realityshow.
But “on accident” is slowly creep-ing into use in both American andBritish English, and although I can’tfind much evidence north of the49th parallel, I’d be very surprisedif it isn’t already embedded here inCanada, too.
I hate this phrase. Every timeI hear it, it’s like steel wool beingrubbed across my exposed brain.
This then forces me to confrontthe fact that I have absolutelyno good reason for my seething,almost violent rage on this subject.
English changes. It grows, itbranches, it sprouts dialects thatwither and die or are absorbedback into the main branch of thelanguage. I know this. Regionalchange, and change over time, areconstant. Compare Jane Austen toMark Twain, or Charles Dickens toRaymond Chandler, and you’ll see
radically different styles and wordchoices evolve over a few decadesand a switch in continents.
I also know I’m being irrational,because some differences in wordusage don’t bother me at all. I grewup saying “pop” when I wanted acarbonated sugar-laden beverage.That’s the most common usageacross much of Canada, and a kidsaying “soda” is looked at askance.But on TV, we saw nothing but“soda,” as that’s the common usagein California, where most of thenetwork TV shows are written andproduced. Pop versus soda is high-ly variable across North America,with much of the south preferringto use the word coke, as in “Whatkind of coke would you like?” “I’llhave an Orange Crush.”
Similarly, we’ve reduced otherbrand names to common nouns,from kleenex in North America tohoover in the U.K.
None of this leaves me the slight-est bit upset. Let others use theiridioms, and I’ll use mine.
Then I’ll hear an Americandescribe a group of friends as aclique, and pronounce it “click,” orsay that they’ve found their niche,pronounced “nitch.”
The rage comes right back, andI have to fight the urge to stranglesomeone while screaming “It’s pro-nounced “cleek,” you moron, it’sFRENCH!”
Canadians, with their exposureto French words, French class inschools, and Quebec accents onthe news, are much more likely togo with the (to my way of think-ing) correct pronunciations thanAmericans.
Why do some words or sentencestructures sound so wrong, andwhy do others sound right? Andwhy do I get so angry about it whenI hear the wrong words used?
It isn’t like this sort of thing hasn’thappened before. “May I?” and“Can I?” used to be distinct ideas,with “May I?” asking permission,while its sibling asked if some-thing was possible. “Can I?” hasswallowed up the former, and I’msure there were some grammargrumps who raged against it asmuch as I do against “on acci-dent.”
I’m not sure which I want more:to win the fight and banish “onaccident” to the remotest innercircle of hell, or to find the abilityto calm down and understandthat it really doesn’t matter thatmuch. English is going to changewhatever I want, and most ofthose changes will be by accident,rather than on purpose.
Not that I’m ready to change yet.

Deservebetter fromour leaderO
nce upon a time, Prime MinisterStephen Harper’s statementsof outrage against governmentwaste and cronyism sounded
more convincing. That time was when heand the Conservatives were in opposition.
When the federal Liberals were caughtwith their hand in the cookie jar of theQuebec sponsorship program, Harper andhis Reform/Alliance/Conservative allieswere right to raise a great noise of outrage.
But saying “I’m not happy,” and “I’mvery upset” when it’s your own senators,your own (now resigned) chief of staff isnot enough.
We brought up the sponsorship scan-dal, and so did Harper when he spoke toreporters for the first time about how thesenators he appointed—Mike Duffy inparticular—seem to have an interestingunderstanding of how much money theyare owed by taxpayers.
Harper should stop talking about whatthe Liberals did a decade ago. Yes, it wasbad. Canadians know that. It’s why they’renow only the third largest party in theHouse of Commons.
The Conservatives, on the other hand,have been in power since 2006. They haveheld a majority government since 2011.
But as with every government thathangs on to power in Ottawa for morethan a year or two, Harper now has hisown list of scandals, including Bev Oda’staste for expensive orange juice and limorides, or Peter MacKay’s use of a searchand rescue helicopter to go fishing.
Harper cannot pretend to be pure andabove it all. Obviously, a thorough investi-gation of the senators and of former chiefof staff Nigel Wright is needed. But all ofthese people were appointed by Harper.
We need not question Harper’s personalintegrity to question his judgment. Whyare those he handpicked to help leadCanada embroiled in scandal?
We deserve a more complete answerthan platitudes and blaming the last gov-ernment.

Editor:Open letter to the new
MLAs:Dear Laurie and John:Now that the dust has
settled, the campaign officeshave been vacated and theelection signs taken down,you should be feeling theweight of responsibility aboutnow.You have both beengiven an honour that very fewpeople get the opportunityto experience, the mandateto sit in the B.C. Legislatureand speak on behalf of yourconstituents.
As the outgoing MLA forChilliwack-Hope, I’d like toshare some words of wis-dom to assist you both inbecoming the best possiblerepresentatives for the com-munities that make up boththe Chilliwack and Chilli-wack-Hope ridings.
You’ll know if you’re on theright track if you’re so busyit will take two assistants tohelp manage your schedule.If you find yourself asking“Wow, is this normal?” let metell you now, the answer is“Yes,” especially within yourfirst year and especially if youtruly want to do a good job.
There are many key rela-tionships that need to beestablished and maintained.This takes time and a willing-ness to engage and, quitefrankly, it is now an expecta-tion. Know that your encour-agement and your presencecan make all the difference inthe lives of community mem-bers. A healthy communityhas environmentalists, non-profits, union members, non-union members, faith groups,secular groups, health careassociations, corporate lead-ers . . . you get the picture. Alazy politician builds rela-tionships with the thoughtof fundraising and gettingre-elected as his main drive.Don’t go down that path.
Know that the people whovisit your office may respondto you and your staff withanger and animosity. Helpthem anyway. It’s your job.Much of what you do will gounnoticed and unrewarded.That’s what you signed on for.
Take the time to reallyget to know the municipal,aboriginal and regional repre-sentatives. They have a lot ofwisdom and experience thatyou can glean from them.After all, they are the mostaccessible elected leaders.They don’t have the luxury ofdebating important issues inVictoria or Ottawa, they con-duct such business right intheir communities and theywill let you know if you’re onthe right or wrong path.
Find a good mentor. Don’tget me wrong, you’ll be givena lot of fancy binders to readand pages of notes, but thereis no substitute for experi-ence. Find the right colleagueto offer advice along the way.This is key. Choose a personwith integrity, not the most
powerful.Everyone makes mistakes,
including politicians. How-ever, your mistakes will makethe six o’clock news. Don’tdrive drunk, run red lights, orlose your SkyTrain ticket. Thefirst two may be forgivablebut the last could cost you anelection.You get the picture.Your life is no longer yourown. This is the great trade offthat comes with the job.
Now comes the mostimportant piece of advice.You will have your share ofsuccesses and outright disas-ters and when you do, don’tpuff yourself up with arro-gance but don’t berate your-self either. Recognize thereis quite a lot you can accom-plish, especially when you arein government, but that alsomeans taking responsibilityfor poor judgments and beingupfront when it comes to dif-ficult decisions.You may bemembers of the BC LiberalParty, but you are first andforemost MLAs. That meansthat you are the representa-tives for everyone, includingthose pesky “socialists” whose“butts you kicked” on May 14.
Listen closely to the wordsspoken at your swearing inceremony. If they cause youto tear up that’s perfectlynatural.
You’ve both been awarded,in my opinion, the best jobsin the province, which areestablished on a sacred trust.Don’t screw it up.Wisdom,compassion, patience andsincerity—may you holdtightly to these virtues asyou lend your voices to theimportant decisions thatwill be made, not only forthe communities in our tworidings, but throughout theprovince.

No real upsideto pipelinesEditor:
I would like to point out afew more negative aspectsof the Kinder Morgan pro-posed doubling of theirpipelines.
They would like us tobelieve that there will be afinancial benefit to Chilli-wack by this project. I wouldpoint out that if any jobsare produced by this work
they will be only temporary.No full-time jobs will resultfrom this. Pipeline work isusually performed by highlyspecialized workers, and Idoubt there are very many inthe Chilliwack area. Most ofthese positions will be takenby experienced pipeliners.
Secondly, much civic andprivate property will haveto be destroyed to lay thispipeline.
Thirdly, if it is allowed togo ahead, there will be a tre-mendous increase in supertanker traffic on our coast-line and into Vancouverwaters. The risk of a majoroil spill will increase expo-nentially. It is not a matter ofif, it is a matter of when thenext oil spill will happen andwe sure don’t want it on ourcoastline.
Finally, I would like torepeat the mantra of bigoil and most large corpo-rations of any kind: “Ourfirst responsibility is to ourstockholders.” In otherwords, as long as it is profit-able, we don’t care aboutanything else.
Be forewarned, folks.Remember Kalamazoo,Mich.

Elation quicklyturns to disgustEditor:
Dropping my kids off atschool at Tyson is a dailyoccurrence, and has been sofor the past four years.
There is no shortageof speeders through thatschool zone in front ofTyson; people on theirway to work, in their ownvehicles and a lot in com-pany vehicles. Racing likethe devil is after them wellexceeding the 30-kilometreposted limit. Some even pullinto Tyson to drop their ownkids off, some are even ontheir cellphones.
It’s ridiculous how peoplejust don’t care about anyoneother than themselves. An“I don’t care” attitude witha big helping of a sense ofentitlement, throw in a cell-phone call or two and youhave made the perfect rec-ipe. One for hitting a childin a school zone, or quitepossibly killing that child
all in the name of “I have toget there or I’m going to belate.”
So imagine my surprisewhen 10 days ago, I takemy kids to school and therewere police officers at theentrance to the school witha couple of tents and someother adults and studentshanding out flyers—hot-dog! They’re doing speedenforcement, about time.
In four years I’ve only seen
them there a total of twoother times and this timewas third. I was elated. Itook my kids into the schooland came back out got intomy car and proceeded toleave the parking lot. Twoofficers standing on thecurb, three more underthe tent. I got closer andcouldn’t believe my eyes andmy elation quickly turned todisgust. The officers underthe tent were handing out
Tim’s coffees and gettingtheir pictures taken withmotorists leaving the park-ing lot. What was the point?I saw no speed enforcement,only some information cam-paign. To me it was apparentthe price of a child is thesame price as a free cup ofcoffee. No speed enforce-ment, no tickets, and nocream for my coffee.

BRAMPTON, ON– A small company in theU.S. has developed a new lure that mimics themotion of a real fish so realistically eight pro-
fessionals couldn’t tell the differ-ence between it and a live shadwhen it “swam” toward them onretrieval. The design eliminateswobbling, angled swimming andother unnatural motions thatproblem other hard bait lures. Itswims upright and appears topropel itself with its tail.
Curiously, the company may have designed ittoo well. Tournament fishermen who have used itsaid it’s possible officials will not allow it in con-tests where live bait is prohibited. They claim itswims more realistically than anything they haveever seen. If so, that would hurt the company’s pro-motional efforts.Winning tournaments is an impor-tant part of marketing a new lure.Fish would probably prefer to see it restricted.
I watched eight veteran fishermen test the newlure (called TheKickTail®) on a lake out-side Orlando FL for aboutfour hours. Four used theKickTail and four used acombination of theirfavorite lures and shiners(live bait). The four usingthe KickTail caught 41fish versus 14 for theother four. In one boat theKickTail won 19 to 4. TheKickTail also caught big-ger fish, which suggests it
triggers larger, less aggressive fish to strike.The KickTail’s magic comes from a patent-
ed technology that breaks the tail into fivesegments. As water rushes by on retrieval, a
little-known principle called aeronautical flut-ter causes the tail to wag left and right, as ifthe lure were propelling itself with its tail.Unlike other hard baits, the head remains sta-tionary—only the tail wags. A companyspokesman told me this.“Marine biologists will tell you that the more
a lure swims like a real fish, the more fish it willcatch. Well, the only live thing the KickTaildoesn’t do is breathe. It’s always swimmingwild and free. Fish can’t stand it. We’ve seenfish that have just eaten go for the KickTail. It’slike having another potato chip.”Whether you fish for fun or profit, if you want
a near 3 to 1 advantage, I would order nowbefore the KickTail becomes known. The com-pany even guarantees a refund, if you don’t catchmore fish and return the lures within 30 days.There are three versions: a floater, a diver and a“dying shad” with a weed guard. Each lure costs$9.95 and you must order at least two. There isalso a “Super 10-Pack” with additional colors foronly $79.95, a savings of almost $20.00. S/h isonly $7.00 no matter how many you order.To order call 1-800-873-4415 (Ask for
item #kts), or click www.Fishing TechToday.com anytime or day. Or send yourname, address and a check to ScientificEdge LLC (Dept. KT-604), 40 E. MainStreet, Suite 1416, Newark, DE 19711. TheKickTail® is 4 inches long and works infresh and saltwater.
Out-fishes other bait19 to 4 in one contest.

Middle schooler TashaWilling may notwin gold competing
against much older girls atthis week’s B.C. High SchoolTrack and Field Champion-ships, but she hopes pittingherself against the toughercompetition will pay off in thelong run.
The Grade 9 student domi-nated the junior throwingevents at the Fraser ValleyChampionships earlier thismonth, winning gold in shotput, discus and hammerthrow, but she has her sightsset on international com-petition and, ultimately, theOlympics some day.
So she’s opted to push her-self and compete againstseniors instead of competi-tors her own age.
Willing got into throwinga few years ago after joiningthe Chilliwack Track and FieldClub as a way to keep activeafter the end of soccer season.
“From the start I kind of justknew I wasn’t going to be arunner; I wasn’t going to be ajumper,” she said.
But one thing set her apartalmost immediately.
“Right from the start shotput she won pretty mucheverywhere,” her mom Marcysaid.
Discus and hammer throwfollowed, and before long,Willing was getting pointersfrom former national teamhammer thrower Harold Will-ers (now a math teacher atChilliwack secondary). And,two years ago she joined histhrowing group that trainstwice a week in Abbotsford.
“She’s very good,” Willerssaid of Willing. “She’s got a lotof the gifts: she’s strong, she’s
quick and she’s reasonablypatient for a young lady inGrade 9.”
Surprisingly, patience is keyin throwing events, accordingtoWillers.
“You need to be powerfuland strong and fast, but youalso have to have the rightattitude,” he said. “Becausethrowing events are technical,it’s not one of those instantreward things. You have towork at it for a long period oftime to reap the benefits.”
Willers expects his youngcharge to advance to thefinals in at least two eventsat the B.C.’s and gain valu-able experience in the pro-cess.
“Later on, when she’sactually in senior high, she’llbe used to the whole atmo-sphere,” he said.
Willing won’t be the onlyChilliwack competitor at theprovincials this week.
G.W. Graham jumper RyanHiguchi will compete in thejunior triple jump and longjump.
Sardis secondary’s Ash-ley Heisler qualified for thesenior girls 400 metres and800 metres, and the 4x100metre relay with teammatesJennifer Wiebe, MichaelaEngland and Caitlin Geary.
Chilliwack secondary’sLevi Halfpenny qualified forthe senior boys 200 metres,while teammate Caitlin LeB-lanc qualified for the seniorgirls 1,500-metre steeple-chase.
And Katie Procee of UnityChristian will compete inthe senior girls 400-metrehurdles.◗ The 2013 B.C. High SchoolTrack and Field Champion-ships run May 31 to June 1at McLeod Athletic Park inLangley.

Pouring rain and cold temperatureswere no match for hundreds oflocal residents Sunday who head-
ed to Abbotsford for the annual Run forWater.
Nearly 5,000 runners raised $358,000for clean water projects and took part inmarathon, half-marathon, 10-kilometreand five-kilometre races.
In the marathon there were two Agas-siz residents and six runners from Chill-iwack in the 226-person field. ThomasHoogendoorn was the top Agassiz racerin 29th spot with a time of 3:23:11, andKristopher Barkowski was the top Chilli-wack marathoner, finishing 48th in atime of 3:37:23.
David Palermo of Vancouver won themarathon in a time of 2:35:08.
In the half-marathon distance, fiverunners were from Agassiz, one fromCultus Lake and 82 from Chilliwack.
The first local across the line in the 21-kilometre race was Stacie Weinbergerof Chilliwack who ran a 1:34:55, goodenough for 29th overall. The top Agassizrunner was Adam Sippel who finished56th in a time of 1:41:51.
The winner of the half was Abbots-ford’s David Jackson who set a blisteringcourse record of 1:10:49.
Sixteen residents of Agassiz, one fromHarrison Hot Springs, one from CultusLake and 143 from Chilliwack compet-ed in the 10-kilometre race. The fastest
Chilliwack runner was Rodrigo Zereceroin 49th place in a time of 46:02.

In the five-kilometre distance, 218Chilliwack residents took part, alongwith 16 from Agassiz, one from Cul-tus Lake and one from Harrison HotSprings. The fastest Chilliwack runnerwas young Yarrow resident MaijkenMeindertsma (male 8-11 category), whoran a 21:07, good enough for 19th over-all. Not far behind him in the same agecategory was local Finnegan Longhurstwho finished in 50th in a time of 22:52.
On Saturday, about 15 runners joinedCanadian adventurer Ray Zahab on a54-kilometre ultramarathon that tookoff from the start of the Rotary Trail inChilliwack and ended at the EnvisionAthletic Centre in Abbotsford.
Zahab is known for his 111-day runacross the Sahara Desert six years ago
and his 250-kilometre run the length ofDeath Valley in August of 2011.
In June, if all goes well, Zahab andteammate Ferg Hawke will attempt torun across the Gobi Desert at its widestpoint in summer, approximately 2,000kilometres.
Raising fundsThe Run for Water is a popular road
race but, more importantly, it’s a chari-table cause. This year, Cheam elemen-tary students, under the leadership ofGrade 3/4 teacher Duane Morellrade3/4 teacher embraced the cause andraised $2050.80, which amounts toclean water for about 56 people in Ethi-opia for the rest of their life.
The teachers took this on as a part ofclass curriculum, running with fund-raising ideas students came up with.The school also organized a mini-runof their own on May 16.

But she’s not just after ice-based events,pointing to our whitewater kayaking andequestrian as examples. She’s after tourna-ments at national or even international levelbut also private events along the lines of theWhistler’s Tough Mudder.
And Heritage Park has capacity for BMXand motocross events both inside and out, asdemonstrated by events already held there.
“I think that’s a market that we can easilytap into and Chilliwack can take advantageof.”
Colthorp said there are three importantlocal benefits to attracting major tourna-ment to town: heads in beds, media expo-
sure and community pride.The first is obvious as it translates into dol-
lars for local hotels and restaurants. The sec-ond, media coverage, gives the city exposureto all the parents, siblings and friends whohear about Chilliwack.
And the third, community pride, just helpsshore up a city’s sense of itself. Sometimesan event will not make money, maybe barelybreak even, but it can serve a more abstractpurpose, according to Colthorp.
“What it will do is bring the rest of thecommunity up,” she said. “It just makes peo-ple do the ‘rah, rah, rah’ about Chilliwack.”

Surrounded by Kalamalka secondary school opponents, G.W. Graham’s Josh Pretty releases a passduring AA provincial championship rugby action in Kelowna Saturday.
The G.W. Graham senior boys AA rugbyteam dug deep late in the last half towin their first-ever provincial champi-
onship game in Kelowna Saturday.The Grizzlies defeated Kalamalka second-
ary 15-10 with tries scored by Austin Creasey,Cameron Meldrum and Jake Creasey.
“This game was truly a team effort,” Gra-ham coach Paula Jordan said. “The boys dugdeep to pull out the win late in the secondhalf.”
The victory puts Graham into the topbracket of the provincial tournament, whichmoves to Abbotsford’s Rotary Stadium forthe final three rounds, and the Grizzlies willface top-seed Brentwood College in a quar-ter-final match Wednesday.
“The squad is ready and hungry for this
next challenge,” Jordan said. “Our goal is toimprove upon our eighth place ranking.”
The Grizzlies game kicks off at 10:30 a.m.Sardis secondary’s AAA senior boys team,
meanwhile, ran into a wall during their first-round match against Kelowna secondarySaturday, losing 66-3.
“Sometimes it just doesn’t go as planned,”Falcons coach Darren Purych said of theresult. “I have to hand it to Kelowna they werebetter prepared and came ready to play.”
The loss drops Sardis to the bottom eightof the tournament, and the Falcons will takeon 13th seed Lord Byng at Abbotsford’s Exhi-bition Field Wednesday at 2 p.m.

Local kayakers say they are opposed to
a plan to install a run-of-river power
project on a Chilliwack River Valley
creek.Tamihi Creek, which enters the Chilli-
wack River just west of the Tamihi Rapids,
is popular with kayakers, who say an eight-
kilometre stretch provides a diverse range of
whitewaters that attracts users from around
the world.
But kayakers fear they won’t be able to use
the creek if a run-of-river power project pro-
posed for the creek goes ahead.
During BC Hydro’s 2006 call for tenders for
independent power
projects, KMC Energy,
a subsidiary of Win-
dRiver Power Corp.,
successfully bid for the
right to install a run-
of-river project on the
creek.
While the Tamihi remains undeveloped,
kayaker Adam Frey was spooked when he
recently visited and found pink flagging tape
lining the entire run.
When contacted by the Times, WindRiver
chief development officer Greg Trainor con-
firmed the project is “in the pre-consultation
planning stages.”
Trainor said that while the company is not
saying much publicly about the project at
this time, “there will be ample opportunity
to discuss the project during the public con-
sultation process at which time better infor-
mation will be available.”
If and when the project gets to that point,
WindRiver will face opposition to their
plans.Frey, who represents the Vancouver Kay-
ak Club (VKC) on the Outdoor Recreation
Council (ORC) of BC, said the creek is a local
treasure that provides an economic benefit
to the Chilliwack area.

Aformer firefighter dismissed
because of his age says a lack
of manpower often makes it
impossible for the Chilliwack Fire
Department (CFD) to adhere to
operational guidelines meant to
reduce health and safety risks.
Russell Shellard has asked the BC
Human Rights Tribunal to rule that
the City of Chilliwack’s mandatory
retirement age of 60 for firefighters is
discriminatory. On Friday, the tribu-
nal declined to throw out Shellard’s
complaint.
Shellard, formerly a paid-on-call
firefighter, was forced out of the
department at the start of 2012.
In his submission to the tribunal,
Shellard argued“it is not uncommon
with CFD fire ground scenes to be
lacking sufficient manpower in order
to follow operational guidelines set
out to reduce health and safety risks
for firefighters. . . . The older per-
sonnel, because of life experiences,
are vital and help reduce the risk of
health and safety on all emergency
scenes.”The city says the age requirement
is needed because the job’s physical
demands put older firefighters more
at risk of deadly on-the-job heart
attacks.According to the tribunal’s ruling,
Fire Chief Rick Ryall suggested “the
work for paid-on-call firefighters is
more dangerous than for full-time
career firefighters” because they
can be paged at any time and must

Cassidy Ediger’s bedroom in her Chilliwack
home is filled with flower-shaped lights, and
the walls are painted blue.
“Same colour as a Tiffany box,”
said her mom, Carolyn Ediger. “When we head
home, she starts to laugh and giggle. It’s like
heaven to her—it’s where she wants to be.”
The Ediger family’s 12-year-long fight for jus-
tice after their daughter Cassidy was left with
severe brain damage due to a botched delivery has final-
ly come to a close.
Cassidy, now 15, lives with spastic quadriplegia and
cerebral palsy. She and her family will be awarded $3.2
million in damages after the Supreme Court of Canada
unanimously restored a decision this month against
obstetrician and gynecologist William G. Johnston for
breaching the standard of care during her birth in 1998.
The initial 2009 trial decision found he had failed to
ensure a backup surgical staff was readily available to
help deliver the child by caesarean section when a for-
ceps procedure failed.
Johnston successfully appealed that decision in 2011,
before the family pushed to have the case heard in Can-
ada’s top court.
“We’re really overjoyed and just completely over-
whelmed,” said Ediger, who launched the court action
in 2008 on behalf of her daughter, and had even begun
discussing legal action when Cassidy was only
three.“It’s a huge burden lifted off our shoulders
and it’s just complete peace of mind, knowing
we’ll be able to provide for her (financially) for
the rest of her life.”
In January 1998, Johnston induced labour early
at 38 weeks after determining Ediger’s pregnancy was high
risk. After running into complications part way through
the delivery, he decided to switch to a caesarean proce-
dure instead, and left the room to make arrangements.

Aboriginal elders will rally at
the Sto:lo Nation grounds
Wednesday to protest a
“moral injustice” they say they
have suffered at the hands of the
Coqualeetza Cultural Education
Centre (CCEC) board of directors.
The Coqualeetza Elders Group
(CEG) has been a part of CCEC
for almost 40 years, but in Janu-
ary, members say the CCEC board
suddenly and without consulta-
tion announced it was dissolv-
ing the program and, further, that
any group that remained would
be forbidden to use the name
“Coqualeetza.”
Members of the group, which
meets weekly for luncheons and
engages in cultural activities in the
community, said they have tried
unsuccessfully to meet with the
board to resolve the issue and now
have no choice but to make their
grievance public.
“What they’re doing is totally dis-
respectful,” CEG president Virginia
Joe said of the board, “and in our
culture respect is one of the biggest
things that we talk about.”
The Jan. 30 letter announcing
the dissolution of the group pro-
vides no rationale for the board’s
decision, stating only that the
board had “reviewed [its] mandate
regarding program funding and
service delivery” and was dissolv-
ing the group “following the CCEC
mandate and policies, the voices of

Tamihi Creek has become
a “poster child” for British
Columbia waterways endan-
gered by independent power proj-
ects (IPP), according to a provincial
recreation group.
The popular kayaking creek—
which feeds into the Chilliwack River
just below the Tamihi Rapids—has
been named one of two “rivers to
watch” by the Outdoor Recreation
Council (ORC) of British Colum-
bia, which released its annual Most
Endangered Rivers List Monday.
The Fraser River was also on the
list, having been named the second-
most endangered river in the prov-
ince, behind the Peace.
Tamihi Creek is the location of a
proposed 15-megawatt power proj-
ect by KMC Energy, a subsidiary of
WindRiver Power Corp. Last month
the Times reported that local kay-
aker Adam Frey recently found pink
flagging tape along the entire run,
leading to worries that work on the
project would soon begin.
A WindRiver official told the Times
the project is in the “pre-consulta-
tion planning stages.”
ORC executive director Jeremy
McCall said the Tamihi is a stand-
in for hundreds of creeks and rivers
around the province that are threat-
ened by such projects.
“They’re called run-of-river proj-
ects [but] that is almost a total mis-
nomer,” McCall said. Instead, he
says the projects siphon off much
of the water and divert it through
pipes, thereby affecting fish down-
stream and the humans who use
the waterways for recreational pur-
poses.“To many, Tamihi Creek is becom-
ing a poster child of sorts, empha-
sizing the need for better regional
planning when it comes to IPP devel-
opment; something that has been

Ayear after reporting that Chill-iwack residents were threemore times likely than aver-age British Columbians to be
licensed medical marijuana growers,the Times has learned the number hastripled.
According to figures obtained throughan Access to Information request inJanuary 2012, 238 Chilliwackresidents were licensed topossess marijuana for medi-cal reasons and 193 werelicensed to produce marijua-na for medical purposes.
There were 4,608 licensedusers and 3,831 licensedgrowers in all of BritishColumbia 13 months ago. That trans-lated to about 85 growers and 102 usersper 100,000 people. But Chilliwack hadabout 280 growers and 344 users per100,000 residents.
Health Canada has told the Timesthere are now 666 persons in Chilliwackwho hold a licence to possess marijua-na for medical purposes.
That’s a 180 per cent increase in oneyear and mirrors provincial increases.As of Feb. 18, there were 13,362 peoplein B.C. authorized to possess, up 190per cent from a year ago, and account-
ing for nearly half of the 28,076 acrossCanada.
The number of those growing mari-juana increased even more.
As of last week, there were 513 indi-viduals in Chilliwack who hold personaluse production licences (PUPL) and 77who hold designated person produc-tion licences (DPPL). Assuming the 193number from a year ago included bothPUPLs and DPPLs (Health Canada wasunable to confirm this by press time)
that’s a three-fold, or 206per cent, increase in grow-ers in the city in one year.
Provincewide, the num-ber of growers rose from3,831 a year ago to 11,601(9,369 PUPLs and 2,232DPPLs) today. That com-pares to a total of 9,846
growers in the nine other provinces andthree territories combined.
In the past decade, Health Canadasays the medical marijuana programhas grown exponentially across thecountry, from under 500 authorizedpersons in 2002 to more than 28,000today.
Mayor Sharon Gaetz and several citycouncillors have made no secret of theirhealth and safety concerns regardingmedical marijuana licences.

More local students aregraduating within sixyears of starting Grade 8,
but the Chilliwack school districtstill lags almost seven per centbehind the provincial grad-rateaverage, according to 2011-12 sta-tistics released last week.
The district saw a 3.3 per centincrease in its six-year completionrate overall last year, with a 5.1 percent gain among girls and a 1.4 percent bump among boys.
Since grad rates in the provinceas a wholeimprovedb y l e s st h a n o n ep e r c e n t ,2 0 1 1 - 1 2saw Chilli-wack makethe biggestgains against the provincial aver-age in more than 10 years.
One important area where thisdidn’t apply, however, was amongaboriginal students.
While the provincial averagethere went up by 2.7 per cent, Chill-iwack saw a 2.7 per cent decline,putting its aboriginal rate 3.5 percent below the provincial average.
Before last year, grad rates inChilliwack had consistently comein about 10 per cent below theprovincial average for more than adecade.
But local officials now say thosefigures haven’t accurately reflect-ed the real picture in Chilliwackbecause the traditional six-year

moving to Alberta two yearsago, they moved back toChilliwack last month. Law-rence, an alarm technician,was due to start a new joblast week.
He had travelled to Albertaduring the May Long Week-end to spend time with hisgirlfriend, Ken said.
Early reports that a fightled to his brother’s deathannoyed Ken, who said Law-rence wasn’t a fan of houseparties and “would avoidconfrontation at any meansnecessary.”
Ken said his brother wasurged to hide in a closet pri-or to the stabbing, but didnot heed those warnings.
“In his mind, he felt heneeded to protect the peo-ple he was with,” he said.
According to RCMP Sgt.Ben Scott, in a meetingof “happenstance,” twowomen were invited into ahouse with Lawrence andhis girlfriend.
“From there a disputearose,” Scott told reporterson Friday. “I can’t get intothe specifics.”
Lawrence’s 20-year-oldgirlfriend was attacked,according to RCMP reports,and he was stabbed whiletrying to protect her.
Lawrence, a Chilliwacksecondary school grad, isbeing remembered as afriendly guy who “just want-ed to be loved.”
Ken said Lawrence would“act geeky or nerdy” to geta laugh, and was known forhis love of cars and, in par-ticular, his blue Nissan 350Z.
It’s those memories, andthe knowledge that Law-rence died while trying toprotect his friends, that areconsoling his family.
“It’s hard, but it helps a bitto know that he died hon-ourably,” Ken said. “It sucksthat he died the way he did,but it happened—there’snothing you can do tochange it.
“I wanted people to knowthe person that he was,” Kensaid. “He was the kind of guywho wouldn’t hurt a fly.”
A 20-year-old woman wasalso hurt in the incident,but has since been releasedfrom hospital.
Two people have beenarrested and charged inconnection to the killing.
Kristy Noel Redgun, 18,and Allison Oldwoman, 20,of Siksika, have been chargedwith first-degree murder,which indicates policebelieve the killing involved adegree of premeditation.
A public viewing will beheld Friday at Henderson’sFuneral Home, with a funer-al and ceremony scheduledfor the following day.

Chilliwacksecondarygraduate
An Agassiz chiropractor hasbeen suspended from practis-ing for six months and fined

him for professional misconduct, (2)suspending his registration for sixmonths commencing no later than60 days from the Order issued onMay 3, 2013 (with three months to bestayed if all other terms of the order
are met), and requiring him to (3)complete approved coursework onboundary issues at his own expense;and (5) pay costs of $10,000.”
Henke operates Mount CheamFamily Chiropractic.

One section of those fields,built and seeded last spring,has been usable since theschool opened in September,but a second portion, seededabout two weeks ago, won’tbe available in September asplanned.
“The district has recog-nized that it would be bet-ter to do more work on thatfield,” principal Nathan Ngi-eng said.
Plummer credits the districtfor being proactive about theproblems and—eager as herP.E. teachers are to get full useof the fields—she is happy thedistrict seems to be lookingto solve the problems for thelong term instead of settlingfor a “quick fix.”
District officials, mean-while, won’t say much aboutwhy the perennial drainageproblems at the two schools(both sit in a floodplain) havepersisted after the construc-tion of new fields, how much
it will cost to deal with themor who will pay for it.
Those discussions havebeen held in camera, super-intendent Evelyn Novak toldthe Times earlier this month,because making them publiccould interfere with negotia-tions between the district anda company originally involvedin building the fields.
She didn’t name a specificcompany, but Port Moody-based Yellowridge Construc-tion Ltd. was the builderawarded the $46.4 millioncontract for both schools inApril 2010.
It’s possible the mattercould end up in court if thetwo sides can’t come to anagreement, secretary-treasur-er Maureen Carradice said,but she added that would beunlikely.

BY TYLER [email protected]
The number of Chilliwack res-idents heading for bankrupt-cy has declined each of the
last two years, according to num-bers released recently by a LowerMainland bankruptcy trustee firm.
In 2012, 178 people in Chilliwackapplied for bankruptcy protection,while another 67 people submittedconsumer proposals to erase theirdebt.
The combined number—245—was down 23 percent from 2010,when 317 bankruptcies or con-sumer proposals took place.
The numbers were collected bythe government of Canada andbroken down and disseminated byBlair Mantin, a vice-president ofSands & Associates.
Mantin said the numbers suggestconsumers are seeking financialhelp earlier to avoid bankruptcy.
“Debt levels are at an all time high,”he said,“but it’s interesting that bank-ruptcies are actually declining inChilliwack—they were down about12 per cent from 2011 to 2012.
“However, consumer proposalshave increased more than 11 per
cent in that same time period,”Mantin said. That increase includesproposals filed in Mission.
Consumer proposals give debt-ors the ability to avoid bankruptcyby offering to pay back a portion ofthe money owed. Mantin—whosefirm promotes the use of consumerproposals—says the numbers showa trend towards people trying tonegotiate down their debts beforebankruptcy is the only option.
Mantin said foreclosures are amain driver of bankruptcies.
“A lot of people who are com-ing in who are doing bankrupt-cies these days, it’s because theybought the house a couple yearsago, expected it to go up . . . [but]
the house has declined in valueand they’re having trouble makingthe mortgage payments,” Martinsaid. “I see a surprising number ofyoung families who overextend-ed themselves, had to sell, and ifthey’re locking in a $50,000 loss,sometimes it’s too much for themto consider doing a proposal on.”
Martin says the tightening ofconsumer credit and mortgagerules, along with the fear of risinginterest rates, has put a damperon some of the speculation thatfuelled much of the debt accumu-lated over the last decade.
But, he says, British Columbianscontinue to carry loads of personaldebt—$37,000 on average.
Fewer locals seeking bankruptcy protectionQuicker to seekfinancial help

Allergiesare a modern epidemic
Helps to activate naturally millions of stem cells from our own bone marrow. The increasein stem cells released from the bone marrow into the blood stream have the potential to becomeother types of tissue cells with specialized function. Stem cells will multiply and are able to becomeheart cells, liver cells or any other organ. Located everywhere in our body, stem cells are evenunder our skin layered between the epidermis and dermis. This is why an increase in stem cellsunder our skin may help to create a more youthful cell that would replenish elastin and collagenand thus may make us look younger. If our bone marrow does not produce enough stem cells thiscan result in many illnesses, especially a weak heart, kidneys, liver, pancreas, in fact all healthyfunctions of our body are decreased. Sufficient stem cells in our body have a great potential of self-repair and the ability to rejuvenate tissues. !Women looking for anti-aging help! We all wantto slow down aging.
