‘Murder capital’ title – again
Family escapes landlord’s rampageVikki HOPESAbbotsford News
Korinne Tjepkema was lying down for a nap when she was awakened by a bang.
She jumped out of bed and ran to her husband Brian, who was in the liv-ing room with their two children, ages three and five.
“What was that?” Korinne asked, thinking something had happened to one of the kids.
“It’s him again,” Brian said, referring to the land-lord who lived in the base-ment suite.
For the first 11 months in the home, there had been none of this behaviour, but it had escalated in the last few weeks.
The man would yell at the family from downstairs anytime the kids made noise. He would turn up his stereo full-blast, and then leave the residence. He often paced frantically back and forth around his living room, with the blinds open.
Sometimes, he stood at the end of the driveway and stared at the family.
Korinne and Brian believed these tactics were aimed at driving them out
of the home so the land-lord could raise the rent. They had tried to find a new place, but had been unsuccessful.
They contacted police and were told they should move out as soon as possible.
Now, the landlord was causing a commotion again. The couple heard a second bang. Brian set up a video camera to record the noise.
Then there was a third
bang, followed by yelling and screaming. Brian went to the bottom of the stairs to listen, while Korinne called 911.
The man was swear-ing, yelling and banging around. Brian ran back upstairs to tell Korinne to relay to the 911 operator what he had heard the man say.
“He said he’s going to set the house on fire!”
While Korinne was on
the phone, the man took a hammer to the basement door, which led to their part of the house and was locked from their side.
When the heavy door wouldn’t budge, he left through the basement suite and hammered at the side of the house as he pro-ceeded to the front.
He pounded at the front door, screaming that he was going to set the house
Vikki HOPESAbbotsford News
The Abbotsford-Mission census metropolitan area (CMA) had the country’s top murder rate – 5.2 per 100,000 population – for the second consecutive year, according to Statistics Canada which released its national homicide rates on Tuesday, reiterating 2009 figures revealed in July as part of its annual report on crime.
Abbotsford had 11 murders in 2009, but two of them – Joseph Randy, 18, and Dilsher Gill, 17 – were not counted in the Stats Can figures because they occurred on native land not included in the CMA. Mission had none in 2009.
So far this year, Abbotsford has had four murders – compared to eight at the same time last year – and Mission has had one.
This week’s report revealed additional information on national homicide statistics, but there was nothing new about Abbotsford, said Police Const. Ian MacDonald.
He said it’s frustrating, once again, to have to defend the community’s reputation.
“We’ve stepped up and accepted our homicide rate, and we’re doing something about it.”
He said Abbotsford Police introduced new strategies this year – such as the formation of the gang suppression unit – that have resulted in a 15 per cent drop in violent crime.
Based on current stats, Abbotsford-Mission is not likely
to reclaim the “murder title” capital again next year, but MacDonald said anything can happen in the next two months.
However, the crime rate has dropped in almost all categories.
“Abbotsford is a far safer city this year,” MacDonald said.
No suspects have been arrested in any of the murders that have occurred so far this year..
The Tjepkema family unpacks as they settle into a new home after a harrowing incident in which their landlord allegedly threatened to burn down their last house.

BUSTED INKOOTENAYS
Two Abbotsford men are among 21 people charged with drugtrafficking following a four-month RCMP investigation. The sting, dubbed Project E-Pylorus,targeted drug dealers at the Nakusp Music Fest, the Kaslo Jazz Fest, Shambhala (near Salmo) and the Grand Forks International Baseball Tournament. The drugs involved include marijuana, LSD, magic mushrooms, ecstasy, cocaine and methamphetamines. The 21 suspects, ranging in age from 17 to 59, were all charged with drug trafficking. Most reside in B.C., while three are from Alberta and one is from Saskatchewan. No names have been released. The two Abbotsford men are both 24 years old. One faces five counts, and the other eight counts.
BURSARIES BOOSTED
The Student Union Society (SUS) at University of the Fraser Valley will establish grants andbursaries following a $105,000 return on its investment in the My Safe Ride Home (MSRH) pro-gram. A cheque presentation was made last Thursday (Oct. 21) by MSRH co-founder Stephen Paul to the SUS, which incorporated MSRH as part of its U-Pass, providing unlimited access to local transit, recreation centres and other programs and services. One of these services is the MSRH program, which enables students with a U-Pass to call Central Valley Taxi in Abbotsford or Chilliwack Taxi if they need a safe ride home.
INSTITUTION LOCKED DOWN
Mission Institution was locked down this week after an inmate was assaulted by an unknown assailant. The victim was taken to an outside hospital fortreatment and later returned to the prison. The lockdown was initiated to enable authorities to search the facility. Aninvestigation is ongoing.

City expects more out of arenaKevin MILLSAbbotsford News
It’s been a quiet year at the Abbotsford Entertainment & Sports Centre (AE&SC). The often maligned building has had few opportunities to show-case its versatility.
In the past eight months, the AE&SC has only hosted four major events, including Reba McEntire in March, the Harlem Globetrotters in April, Monster Trucks in June and Sesame Street Live in July.
Two concerts, Meatloaf and Heart, were cancelled.
“2010 was humble, not just here but in the entire industry,” said Michaella Petrik, director of marketing.
She says early signs indicate a
better year in 2011.“From my perspective, it will
be better – how could it not be?”
With the Abbotsford Heat’s second season of hockey under-way, the building is getting more
use. However, many more event nights are needed to prevent the AE&SC from running into another big deficit.
Last year, the facility ran $2.6 million of op-erational red ink, $1.6 million higher than an-ticipated.
“It’s not acceptable,” said Abbotsford Mayor
George Peary. “We have ex-pectations and have expressed those expectations to Global Spectrum. We have some op-tions if they don’t meet them.”
Global Spectrum is the Philadelphia-based company
that manages the arena for the city. A 10-year deal pays the company $150,000 a year as a base rate, plus incentives for making a profit.
The deal also contains a perfor mance clause that would allow the city to pull out.
“They (Global Spectrum) are in the option year of their contract,” said Peary.
Despite the l a c k l u s t r e performance, Peary is optimistic the AE&SC is capable of getting on track.
He said Global Spectrum is getting “to know our commu-nity” better and “has a feel” for what shows will work.
Disney on Ice is coming to
Abbotsford in December (Dec. 3-5) and sales are strong.
“Family shows should do well here,” said Peary.
Also performing, on Dec. 17, is Christian singer Michael
W. Smith, who is on his It’s A Wonderful Christmas tour.
This week, it was announced that profes-sional ice rac-ing will return to the AE&SC. Last year, that event was a dis-appointment
at the box office as fewer than 1,000 people turned out to watch modified ATVs and motorcycles race on ice. Petrik is confident this year’s showcase will attract a larger audience.

Neil CORBETTAbbotsford News
A single mom who’s ill and in dire finan-cial straits is suddenly seeing brighter days, thanks to fellow employees and man-agement at local McDonald’s franchises.
Last Saturday, The News told the story of Stephnie Smith, who is sick with an undiagnosed illness, cannot work, and has been cut off from employment insurance benefits. Suffering severe stomach prob-lems and rapidly losing weight, she has surgery scheduled for Nov. 25 that should determine what’s wrong. In the meantime, she has no source of income.
On leave since June, her $375 bi-weekly EI payments ran out three weeks ago, and she has been told she no longer qualifies for EI sickness benefits, which run for a maximum of 15 weeks. With bills to pay and a three-year-old daughter to sup-port, she has appealed that decision with Service Canada, which oversees employ-ment insurance benefits. She was told it can take up to 30 days for the agency to even decide whether it will accept an ap-peal.
Smith inquired about income assistance, but was told she does not qualify because she lives with family. Smith resides with
her sister, but she still has to support her-self and her daughter.
If she moves out, she can get welfare.“Our medical system doesn’t meet up
with our EI system,” she said.On Tuesday, Smith walked into the
McDonald’s restaurant where she worked, to pay her $40 health and benefits premi-ums. She was told the owner, Chuck Vertes, will be covering those expenses. What’s
more, the staff at the six Abbotsford and Aldergrove restaurants owned by Vertes are going to be taking up a collection for her, which will be topped up by the busi-ness.
The restaurants will also make Stephanie and her daughter Daleen their Christmas family, meaning staff and customers can donate cash and presents to make sure the two have a happy holiday.
Co-workers told Stephanie they just want to see her get better. And although she hasn’t worked in four months, she left the restaurant that day with a cheque for $500.
“Knowing they’re there and they care is enough for me, but they went above and beyond,” she said in an emotion-filled voice. “They’re amazing.”
Last Saturday’s newspaper article came as a shock to the McDonald’s community.
“We had no idea her situation was so bad,” said Christy Patterson, administra-tive manager of the six stores.
“I admire that she was at work. She could have been a person who relied on the sys-tem, but she worked,” added Patterson. “Now that she needs the system, they won’t help her.
“The goal is to get enough to get her through the end of the year.”
By that point, Smith is hopeful doctors will have learned what is causing her trouble, and she will be far enough into a course of treatment that she can return to work, back with the people who have come to her rescue.
“I’m absolutely, so thankful.”

on fire and he was giving the family two minutes to get out. Korinne brought the kids into one of their bedrooms, and the children hid under the bed.
They waited there, while Brian stood guard at the top of the stairs, holding a broom pole for protection.
The man threw the ham-mer against the glass beside the door and yelled at Brian through the gap.
Then he ran back into his suite and banged around some more before returning to the front of the house, and sitting on the lawn. Police arrived,
and he was arrested.The man has now been
charged with break and enter, uttering threats, mischief and arson.
Abbotsford Police Const. Ian MacDonald said the man had poured cooking oil over the entire kitchen of his suite, and had turned on all four burners on the electric stove.
He said police receive at least one call a day involving a ten-ant-landlord issue. However, this case is unusual in that it crossed over to criminal behaviour.
“Probably about 90 per cent of the time when we get called to tenant-landlord disputes,
it’s the landlord calling,” he said.
In most cases, MacDonald said police can’t take any action, other than advising the parties to take their concerns to the Residential Tenancy Branch.
The Tjepkemas have now found a new place to live, but said the incident has caused them great anxiety.
“Any noise we hear, we’re both on edge,” Korinne said.
They plan to get counselling for their kids, who worry the man will return.
They are now sharing a room because they feel safer together.
“It’s a different promoter and a higher level of competition. Last year we had to educate people on what it was,” she said.
Motorcyle ice racing features a no-brake rule.
Other shows are expected to be announced soon as winter is usu-ally a busier season in the enter-tainment industry.
“We have two or three announce-ments coming in November.”
She added some of the shows expected to come here in 2010, look to be available for 2011.

If only local taxes got attention
The B.C. government is expecting rec-ommendations any day now from its task force set up to examine local taxation of industry.
Here’s a tax issue that could use some of the public attention that’s been lavished on the anti-HST circus. It has smouldered for years with mill closures and fl ared up recently with a forest industry tax revolt against selected (mostly coastal) municipalities.
Rich Coleman set the tone during his tour as forests minister, when he said local governments are “dining out” on their industrial base, overtaxing mills while giving a free ride to the residential voters who keep them in offi ce. In some cases the mill is paying 20 times the tax rate of a homeowner, without regard to the local services actually consumed by each one.
Finance Minister Colin Hansen got a
verbal draft of the task force’s recom-mendations at the end of September. He didn’t wait for the written version, giv-ing his response to the key recommenda-tion to mayors and councillors at their convention in Whistler. Do not expect a proposed $25 million transition fund for those municipalities who let their indus-trial taxes get out of control.
“The ratio between the residential tax rates and the industrial tax rates in some communities is a problem for job creation and job retention in those communities that I think local govern-ments have to deal with,” Hansen told reporters at the convention. “We want to be a supporting partner, but that doesn’t necessarily mean we’re simply going to be writing big cheques.”
Hansen mentioned Powell River, one of the mill towns where Catalyst Paper withheld $15 million in property taxes and went to court to protest the rate. After municipalities’ right to set outra-geous tax rates was upheld in court, Catalyst pleaded with Premier Gordon Campbell to provide some interim assis-tance to the communities.
Paying their current costs means shutting the doors. Powell River got that
message, and began negotiating what it will take to keep its mill from shutting down, being dismantled and scrapped or shipped to Asia.
Nanaimo came to that stage with the Harmac pulp mill and it has reined in its industrial taxation for new owners. Employees there also learned the hard way about pricing yourself out of the
marketplace, buying shares, taking pay cuts and cranking up productivity to restore their jobs.
The grind continues for towns such as Port Alberni. Catalyst workers there have voted 98 per cent to reject a com-pany bid to reopen their contract, which
runs to 2012 and includes a three per centwage increase set for next year.
The union says the company wants concessions that add up to 21 per cent. If the local taxpayers won’t pay more to keep the mill going, the workers will have to, under this owner or the one that picks up the pieces after bankruptcy.
Is the B.C. government going to ride to the rescue of these communities, many of which are growing on the residential side as the baby boom retires? No. And it shouldn’t, either.
Municipal leaders came away from their convention with a faint hope that cabinet will consider some kind of aid inthe spring budget. But Hansen said that would send a poor message to communi-ties with more reasonable tax rates. The province would be using their tax moneyto subsidize communities that have been gouging industry.
It’s a low-profi le version of the har-monized sales tax debate. Consumers, in this case consumers of roads and sewers,are being asked to pay their way.

With more and more B.C. munici-palities, including Abbotsford, severely restricting public access to fi reworks and their discharge, it is time for the province to step in and provide a uniform solution.
The Fire Chiefs Association of B.C. has lobbied for this for some time in an effort to reduce the workload of its crews on or near holidays at which fi reworks are traditionally used widely by the public.
Municipalities are right to try to protect citizens from an activity that in the past has often caused serious personal injury or property damage.
But as it stands, a patchwork of bylaws across B.C. makes it confus-ing for people who would like to set off fi reworks in an appropriate man-ner, and reduces the effectiveness for cities trying to limit their use.
Currently, the sale, possession or discharging of even so-called “low hazard” fi reworks is prohibited in
Abbotsford.Used properly, fi reworks can be
an entertaining experience that can bring families and neighbours together. With a strong educational program highlighting the dangers involved, respect for this tradition can be garnered and appreciated.
These positive steps can be taken not by depriving citizens of some enjoyment, but by addressing the problem at its root.
Currently, there are no standards in Canada for manufacturing fi re-works. They don’t come with instruc-tions or a warning, or any safeguards to prevent injury or damage.
Under a blanket regulation, the province could call on manufacturers to be more responsible and innova-tive, while still enabling citizens to enjoy their own private festivities.
Compromise, after all, is some-thing we can all celebrate.

City eating up valleyThe news that an
industrial park is planned on an orchard of our agricultural land , is sad news.
In years past, those who established the land freeze were certainly people of wisdom.
Those who fail to respect that impor-
tant decision cause all of us to become losers in this lovely, fertile valley.
The ‘city in the val-ley’ will ‘eat up’ the valley.
Is city hall really saying that there is no room within our city limits for industrial development ?
Owners of proper-ties in the valley are now encouraged to sell their land, begin-ning to neglect it, and so causing our fruit production to suffer a serious loss.
Let’s honour that land freeze. How about a plebiscite?

Regarding story of local mom, Stephnie Smith, fighting illness and loss of income.
On behalf of the McDonald’s restaurant franchise owner, where Stephanie Smith is currently on medical leave, we would like to thank The Abbotsford News for printing her story.
We were not aware that her situ-ation had become so dire.
As a result of reading your story, all six of our franchise locations
in Abbotsford and Aldergrove have been notified, and the staff are pulling together and making donations from their paycheques.
Stephnie and her daughter will also be our Christmas family this year.
We are like a family here, and we are happy to help one of our own.
Thanks again for making her story public.

P3 waterworks examinedKevin MILLSAbbotsford News
The city is studying every possible revenue option to help deal with its need for a new water system, including public partnerships.
The idea of a public private partnership (P3) first surfaced at one of several budget infor-mation meetings held this month.
City staff members, discuss-ing alternatives with interested members of the community, said the P3 option was being examined.
“We are likely going to sub-mit an application,” said Abbotsford Mayor George Peary. “Just to see if it’s viable.”
He emphasized nothing has been submitted yet. The P3 option is being
examined, as are all financial possibili-ties.
A P3 is a legally binding contract between government and business for the provision of assets and the delivery
of services. In a P3 arrange-ment, government remains actively involved throughout the project’s life.
Abbotsford and Mission need to tap into Stave Lake to improve their shared water sys-tem. The project likely has to be completed in the next 10 to 15 years at an estimated cost of $200 million.
If the cities decided to enter into a P3 agreement, it would open the door for 25 per cent federal funding, equalling $50 million.
“That’s the lure,” said Peary.While still in the idea stage, Peary
says the project might not be approved for P3 status, or at least not all of it. He said most private businesses won’t have any interest in laying the pipes.
“It may just be the water treatment portion of the project that qualifies,” he said.
While some are concerned about involving private business in the city’s water supply, Peary is not worried.
“We have the poster boy for P3 projects in our backyard,” he said, referring to the Abbotsford Regional Hospital.
The final public budget meeting is scheduled for tonight (Oct. 28) at 7 p.m. at the Matsqi Centennial Auditorium (32315 South Fraser Way). The public is encouraged to attend, meet with city staff, provide input and ask ques-tions on the new budget. For more information visit www.abbotsford.ca/budget2011

Abbotsford Homeowners Want to KnowThe Value of Their Home, But Are Afraid to Ask!
Abbotsford – A hassle-free service allows homeowners to receive up to date real estate market information speci c to their home without having to meet with a real estate agent.
Some homeowners are reluctant to meet with a realtor as they may only be in the early stages of planning a move or may not yet know if they will move. “Should we sell or stay? How much equity do we actually have?” Often these questions cannot be answer ed without knowing the current value of your home.
Determining the value of your home is based largely on comparing your home to similar homes that have recently sold. This comparative approach should con-sider several factors – features of each home, location, neighbourhood, length of time on the market, etc. However, access to this type of information is general ly re-
served for the real estate agents and their clients.
This free service provides each home-owner with a Real Estate Market Update speci c to their property. This update in-cludes detailed sales informa tion of simi-lar homes that have recently sold within the homeowner’s area, as well as the cur-rent listings. This data includes a photo-graph of each home, asking prices and selling prices, the number of days on the market, price reductions and a complete description of each home.
To have a free Market Update sent to you, specially tailored for your home, call this 24 hour free recorded message at 1-800-251-4944, enter extension #4811. This hassle free, no obligation service is provided by Rod Poole of Landmark Realty Corp. You may also call Rod’s of ce directly at 604-309-6068.

Some respite for struggling SPCA
Donors came forward in response to theAbbotsford SPCA’s recent appeal for help, butthe situation is only slightly less dire.
On Oct. 16, The News ran an article document-ing how a Thanksgiving weekend break-in wasthe latest problem for the agency. Donationsare off by about 50 per cent, or $58,000, thisyear. What’s more, adoptions of pets is on thedecline, but the kennels are full to capacity.
Abbotsford SPCA manager Jodi Dunlop saida handful of people came forward with dona-tions that amounted to $1,600, which put “asmall dent” in the budget shortfall.
Two volunteers, Richard and Penny, donatedtheir time to fix the cut fence and door whichwere damaged during the break-in. It wasabout a day and a half of work. Rona on SumasWay donated the supplies.
While the SPCA has received some help, ithas also received ever more felines. The dayafter the public appeal, eight more arrived.
“Our cat population is through the roof, andthe public keeps trying to surrender them, andwe just don’t have room,” said Dunlop.

Dan KINVIGAbbotsford News
Late goals decided both games between the Abbotsford Heat and Rochester Americans this week, and the home side tasted both elation and dejection.
On Monday, Heat forward Jon Rheault scored the game-winner at 1:16 of overtime, rip-ping a wrist shot past Rochester goalie Jacob Markstrom to lift Abbotsford to a 4-3 victory. Rookie centre Gaelan Patterson chipped in with two goals for the Heat, who posted their first win in three tries at the Abbotsford Entertainment Centre.
“It felt great, because it’s been a little bit of a rough start for me,” acknowledged Rheault, who had just a single goal to show for the Heat’s first eight games. “Coach (Jim Playfair) challenged me to get back to my roots as a hard-working guy.”
On Tuesday, it was Rochester’s Michal Repik who filled Rheault’s shoes as the hero. With Heat winger J.D. Watt in the penalty box for a high-stick-ing infraction late in the third period, Repik tracked down a
rebound and swept the puck past a diving Matt Keetley. That goal snapped a 1-1 draw and stood up as the game-winner.
The win boosted Rochester to the .500 mark at 4-4-1-0, while the Heat still sit atop the AHL’s North Division with a 5-4-0-1 record.
“I took a penalty at a bad time, and lost the game for us,” Watt said afterward, shouldering the
blame. “I had a guy come to hit me, and I got my hands up to protect my face . . . I can’t take a penalty at that time.”
The Heat started slowly on Tuesday – the Americans had them hemmed in their own zone for the first five minutes of the game, and that pressure yielded a goal by Evgeny Dadonov.
The home side carried the play from that point, and lev-
eled the score late in the second period when Matt Keith scored off a Rochester defensive-zone turnover.
“We didn’t get the start we wanted, but the last 40 minutes, we played the way we wanted to,” Keith said.

Dan KINVIGAbbotsford News
In light of the young faces that characterize the Columbia Bible College sports teams this season, perhaps a nickname change is in order.
Instead of Bearcats, how about Bear Cubs?
“We’re a really young pro-gram this year – we only have
a handful of returning ath-letes for all our teams,” CBC athletic direc-tor Rocky Olfert ac-knowledged. “It’s a lot of learning for all of us . . . but we’re see-ing some really good things.”
The Bearcats vol-leyball teams open the B.C. Colleges Athletic
Association regular season this weekend, hosting the
UBC-Okanagan Heat on Friday (6 p.m. and 7:45
p.m.) and the Selkirk Saints on Saturday (1 p.m and 2:45 p.m.).
The CBC hoopsters tip off the regular sea-
son next week in Victoria, where they take on the
Camosun Chargers.
Of all the Bearcats sports teams, the men’s volleyball squad helmed by Olfert is the most seasoned.
Setter Jason Warkentin, last year’s team MVP, leads a tal-ented veteran core that also features dynamic outside hitter Matt Kaminski and 6’9” middle Danny Grant. There are plenty of fresh faces as well, including

on Monday following a second-period hit from Rochester’s Triston Grant. He sustained a shoulder injury, and his timeline for return is still murky at this point.
Up next for the Heat is a Friday-Saturday dou-bleheader against the Milwaukee Admirals. The puck drops at 7 p.m. both nights at the AESC.

named to the Canada West squad for World Junior A Hockey Challenge.

A20 Abbotsford News I Thursday, October 28, 2010
After a slowdown in July and August, the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board (FVREB) saw a modest month-over-month increase in sales on its Multiple Listing Service (MLS) in September and a decrease in overall inventory for the fourth month in a row.
Deanna Horn, FVREB President, says, “This is the beginning of the fall market. Our sales, while lower than a typical September, are up compared to the summer and the average days to sale for single de-tached homes decreased slightly compared to August.”
A total of 1,044 sales were processed on FVREB’s MLS in September, an increase of five per cent compared to 997 sales in August, however a decrease of 34 per cent compared to 1,590 sales in September of last year. The board received 2,411 new listings last month, a 15 per cent increase from August, yet a nine per cent decrease compared to September 2009. The board finished September with 9,959 active listings, three per cent fewer than in August and an increase of 13 per cent compared to September 2009.
“Although consumers have 13 per cent fewer properties to look at in Fraser Valley than they did in May, it remains a buyers’ market with a healthy selection, near-record low interest rates and stable prices. It’s important that both buyers and sellers
recognize that as long as inventory levels continue to decline, there is less downward pressure on pric-ing,” explained Horn.
The benchmark price for Fraser Valley detached homes in September was $507,429, down 0.5 per cent compared to August and 3.3 per cent higher compared to $491,404 in September 2009.
The benchmark price of Fraser Valley townhouses in September was $321,843, a 0.8 per cent de-crease compared to August and a 3.1 per cent increase compared to September 2009 when it was
$312,143. Year-over-year, the benchmark price of apartments decreased 0.3 per cent going from $240,378 in September 2009 to $239,625 last month. It remained unchanged from the benchmark price in August.
Modest increase in MLS sales
It remains a buyers’ market with a healthy selection, near-record low inter-est rates and stable prices.

I was born and raised here inAbbotsford. I grew up on a farm in Mt. Lehman – and helped my dad and mom build spec homes locally through the 70s and early 80s. My family has watched this town grow from the small farming community it once was to the city it’s becoming today. When looking for a realtor to work with in today’s busy and competitive market, it’s important to choose someone who knows the history of the area, who un-derstands the “whys” and the “hows” and can help you navigate the highs and the lows of buying and selling a house. If you’re like most, a home is the largest and most important investment you’ll ever make. It’s my job to provide you with the support, the information and the know-how that will help you make the best decision for you and for your family.

YO U R R E A L E S TAT E P R O F E S S I O N A LI was born and raised on a farm in Abbotsford and have lived here all my life. I’ve been very fortunate to have a well rounded career that has given me the tools to become a successful Realtor today. I worked in construction for a few years after graduation and then moved on to many years of sales at Blackwood Building Center. This is where I met a lot of great people and learned more about the building industry. After Blackwood’s I moved on to Agricultural Equipment and Sales industry where I met more great people over the next years. All the while I owned and ran my own poultry farm. I went on to help manage a large farming operation for a friend which included many types of poultry farms, hatcheries, organic dairy and a Sawdust supply trucking company. Real Estate seemed like a great fi t for me so I got my real estate license and started selling homes and farms in 2004. My experience and hard work ethics has helped me to become one of Fraser Valley’s Top Realtors, becoming a Medallion Club award winner as well as receiving the Re/Max Hall of Fame Award. I believe that honesty and integrity will always bring you positive results and look forward to many years of meeting old friends and making new ones.

CBC v-ballers open at homeJustin Wood, an MEI grad whom Olfert refers to as “one of the best we’ve had in a long time.”
The Bearcats men finished fourth in the BCCAA regular season standings last season, and Olfert expects them to be near the top once again in 2010-11.
Under the stewardship of fourth-year head coach Janelle Rozema, the CBC women’s volleyball team has yet to miss the playoffs.
Rozema has a new challenge this fall, as she’s got just one returning player on the roster. The good news is, that player is standout fourth-year libero Hannah Antonio.
“Hannah is everything you want to build a team around,” Rozema said.
“She’s a real hard worker.“I want to pass on all those qualities
to the new, impressionable rookies.”April van Wieren, a 6’3” recruit out
of Calgary, leads a solid rookie class that also features MEI product Chrysta McNicol.
Columbia Place will be the host site for the BCCAA basketball provincials in March, and the Bearcats men are determined to make it to the party.
“We’d love to be there,” bench boss Mike McLaverty said. “That’s our goal.”
Forwards Matt Wirch and Chris Thompson are the returning veterans, and McLaverty will lean on them to provide leadership. The rookie class includes Chris Mader, a 6’5” centre out of Chilliwack’s Highroad Academy,
and Bateman grad Brady Kaethler. In terms of degree of difficulty, few
coaches would relish the task ahead of CBC women’s basketball coach Jay Duke.
CBC’s nine-player roster recently shrunk to five, after four players who had committed to the Bearcats changed their plans late in the summer. As many as four new recruits could join the team for the second semester, but in the meantime, it leaves the ’Cats in a precarious situation with no bench.
“With five players, we have to be very efficient,” Duke observed. “We have to place a high value on decision-making.”
Keywanna Kendrick, a six-foot centre from Georgia, will anchor the team, while Bateman grad Sharece Thoutenhoofd will also be a key contributor.

MORTIMER, Patricia May ( nee Whyte)
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mom and nana. Mom’s battle with cancer came to a close with her family by her side on October 22, 2010. Mom was predeceased by her husband Geoffrey Mortimer and leaves behind her three children, Greg (Sandy), Joanne (Brent), Cathy (Jules) and 7 grandchildren . Patsy as dad like to call her, was born in Edmonton Alberta on Oct 12, 1924 but grew up in Red Deer. After completing her schooling she attended the Royal Alexandra School of Nursing and then went on to the U of A and got her degree in Public Health. She met our dad, Geoffrey Mortimer who was an RCMP offi cer sta-tioned in Alberta and in 1950 they married. They soon start-ed their family and their across Canada adventures. As dad rose in the ranks we moved to Ottawa, Regina, Penhold, Ed-monton, Victoria and then back to Ottawa. After retire-ment they moved to Calgary and then Victoria. Mom had the hardest job in the world as a stay at home mom and man-aging our busy family. After dad died mom moved to Ab-botsford in 1989. She loved the community and the ability to go for walks around Mill Lake with her Nordic poles. She had many interests and enjoyed needle point, curling, playing bridge, knitting, and learning about the latest tech gadgets. She was an avid sports fan and enjoyed follow-ing her grandchildren’s adven-tures and accomplishments. What mom is best known for is her incredible spirit; her sense of humour and her ability to light up a room with her smile.To Wendy Vaughan-Thomas, thank you for being there for the entire journey. There are no words that can thank you enough for your help, love and support. We are forever grate-ful. We would also like to ex-press our heartfelt thanks to Dr. Mike Newton and his staff, as well as the nurses at ARH Oncology ward, Dr. Gailbraith and the staff at the chemo therapy ward of the Cancer Clinic, staff at Abbotsford Con-tinuing Care and at Valley Home Support and the doc-tors, nurses and volunteers at the Christine Morrison Hos-pice. A very special thank you is extended to the staff at Hall-mark on the Park. You provid-ed mom with comfort and love and you have become like family to us. We know mom that you are once again danc-ing with dad. You will be forev-er in our hearts. Until we meet again. Celebration of Life will take place Friday, October 29 at 6 pn at Cascade Commu-nity Church, Delair Rd. Ab-botsford. In lieu of fl owers do-nations may be made to Abbotsford or Mission Hos-pice.

ABBOTSFORD NEWS I Saturday, October 28, 2010

Cam Cardow’s self portrait.
Neil CORBETTAbbotsford News
It’s a conversation Cam Cardow has replayed many times in his life.
“What do you do for a living?”“I’m an editorial cartoonist.”“Wow, that’s cool! I’ve never met one
before!”“That’s because there are only about
20 of us in the country.”“And that’s a real job? They pay you
enough to make a living? How much do you make?”
“So far, so good.”Pretty darn good, actually. Cardow
now plies his trade from his home in Abbotsford, but he is the cartoonist for the Ottawa Citizen, one of the bastions of political reporting in Canada.
At the peak of his profession, when his Syndicam Productions company was sending his work across the coun-try, he was a relative rock star in the world of Canadian news media.
“I was getting published in every (daily) newspaper in the country. The business was good,” he said. “We paid off our house in two years, it was that good.”
Competition bit big into those salad days, and now Cardow’s job is to send fi ve cartoons a week to Ottawa, and they are picked up and published worldwide by another syndication company. Recently, his neighbour said he saw Cardow’s work while vacation-ing in Germany.
He got his start in 1983, with the Citizen.
“I walked in with some dog-eared copies of work I’d done.”
They put him to work on an art proj-ect – making riding maps at election time. “
In the beginning, as a newspaper artist, he would produce illustrations for feature pages, and produced one cartoon per week.
He was soon on his way to the Regina Leader-Post as a full-time cartoonist.
Cardow has bumped around the media, serving as art director for the Calgary Herald and web editor for Telus, But for the last 12 years he has made his living cartooning.
It’s not napkin doodling, it’s high
profi le editorial comment for the paper of record in the nation’s capital. At its best, Cardow’s work can infl uence how people feel about an issue, change how they vote, or at least give them a good laugh.
When it comes to the vener-able tradition of his craft – lampooning politicians – he’s in there with the best.
“I loved drawing Mulroney,” he recalls. “It was so simple and everyone hated him. And we also had Grant Devine in Saskatchewan, and I owned him – it was a great one-two,” he recalls. “But I always liked him, and I liked Mulroney.”
He recalls how Joe Clarke was run out of offi ce, head-
ing an unpopular Conservative gov-ernment, with cartoonists having their way with him, drawn with mittens tied to his coat and a little-kid caricature
that was too easy to do.When cartoonists discuss
their work, they acknowledge that when they really start to dislike a politician, the cartoons go bad – no longer funny.
Cardow got that way in 2003. Watching the U.S. invasion of Iraq, hearing propaganda about weapons of mass destruction, he began skewering George W. Bush. Finally, his editor asked

‘...most ofus guysare pretty cynical...’
him to back off.Political cartoonists have helped to bring
down unpopular politicians, but Cardow gener-ally has a gentler touch. An associate who syn-dicates his work calls Cardow, “The Hallmark Card’s cartoonist.”
“I’ve met a lot of cartoonists, and most of us guys are pretty cynical and pretty ruthless, but I’m not built that way,” he said.
A recent cartoon of his poked fun at the Lib-eral leader’s limelight seeking ways, showing him emerging from the Chilean mine yelling
“It’s great to be alive!!” while rescuers remark “Ignatieff never misses an opportunity, does he.”
Not fl attering, but not overly mean.The next day, also about the rescued miners,
was pure Hallmark – an image of television screen showing a miner hugging his family, while in the living room, a few feet away, family members hug one another.
“I tried to put emotion into a cartoon, and it’s diffi cult to do.” he said.
He’s a family man, married 21 years to his wife Gaylene. They keep busy taking their
daughter to piano, dance and swimming les-sons, and keeping up with church activities.
In the fi rst three years of his career in Regina, Cardow was nominated for a National Newspaper Award each year, winning once. It was an unmatched achievement.
“When I wasn’t nominated the following year, I thought I was losing it.”
But he would be nominated three more times. Last year he won again, for a 2008 car-toon with Stephane Dion walking the plank offa sunken Liberal ship.
Apparently, he’s still got it.

The massive fl atscreen TV – the focal point of the entire room – is mounted on the wall, ready to display the hockey game, the

Renewing an old home is a major undertaking: from the design process to permit approval to completion, it is an involved process for homeowner and renovator.When that renovation can actually give the homeowner more space, the renewal becomes an upgrade.Such was the case at a West Side Vancouver single-family home – situated on a desirable corner lot in a fantastic neighbourhood – where the house itself was in need of a major overhaul of almost everything from the ground up.The homeowners called in RJR Con-struction management.“This house is on a small corner lot. If the client had decided to tear down and rebuild, they would only have been allowed to build a 1,600-square-foot home,” notes RJR owner Shawn Stewart.“By renovating instead of building new, we were able to (make) it a 3,300-sq.-ft. home by creative use of guidelines while staying with the rules. It made perfect sense to renovate.”Stewart says they met these clients on a recent tour of homes where one of his company’s completed projects was on display.The homeowners were interviewing a number of contractors – which is what everyone should do, Stewart says – and they really liked what RJR had done on the house on tour.So RJR made a full presentation and discussed everything with the clients, from xed-price contracts to cost-plus to the approach on the project.“If the client doesn’t have an archi-tect, which this client didn’t, they

out a doubt, become the mainstream TV.”That may not happen right away, Laird says, but notes that a lot of 3D programming is already available or on its way, such as footage from the successful 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games in Vancouver and Whistler and the more recent FIFA World Cup (soccer).It will also be an instant hit - if it’s not already - to gamers who love their xBox, PlayStation, Nin-tendo Wii and other video game players.‘’The biggest part of 3D will be movies and gaming. 3D games will become very prominent when you see pieces of a car go fl ying by your head,’’ Laird says.But whether 3D TVs or the still ultra-popular fl atscreen televisions (plasma, LCD/LED), Laird says the thinner, fl at screens remain highly sought-after.And the TV remains king in the media room, he adds.‘’How large (the TV is) usually depends on the size of the room ... the TV is always the focus,’’ he says.Being comfortable while watching the movie or
game is also important.A sales manager at a local Brick says sofas are as trendy as ever with clients, but especially in sectionals - for media rooms - whether in leather, microfi bre or other materials. Sectional sofas with built-in reclining seats are often purchased for home entertainment theatres; some sectionals feature three or more reclining parts that can be joined together or pulled apart as separate seating.
While projectors are still available - and soon, 3D projectors - the vast range of large,
fl atscreen TVs that are readily available attract many customers, he says.Other technologies, such as sophisticat-ed home speaker and intercom systems, are advancing every day.
Darryl Rosenfeldt, director of ConnectPro Services - the installers and experts avail-
able through Future Shop - says some 3D TVs are starting to come with WiFi access (wireless Internet capability).People can already download movies from the Internet and watch them on TV through their

need to contract with a company that has a de-sign, architectural and build capability, which we do,” says Stewart.“Because of our complete service we were able to satisfy their needs from design to build with a xed price. We told the client this renovation was going to be in the range of $600,000 to achieve what they wanted.”Before a xed price is agreed on, RJR does a thorough examination of the home, assesses what can be seen, then evaluates what changes need to take place and the cost of those changes, and then go from there.RJR has the architectural/design department involved in the initial process and works closely with the estimating department, so they are well versed in the costing. This allows them to assure their clients – if the scope of the project isn’t changed by the clients – what the price will be.Sometimes, there are unpredictable costs, Stewart says, but RJR does its best to mitigate any extra spending.“In this case, there was an old oil tank we discovered when we came across a copper line buried in the soil,” Stewart says. “We were able to get that removed safely and this was an
extra cost to the client.”The Vancouver house required a lot of struc-tural upgrades in order to make the home sound, so it was structurally re-engineered and approved to earthquake standards.In order to meet the requirements of the city, RJR had to reinforce with sheer walls and structural beams, which were masked by nished materials. On the exterior, the porch
was rebuilt and enhanced, raised fascia details were applied to gables, pre-painted Hardie board siding was added, and modern materials were used to complement the period appear-ance of the house with stone, natural wood trim and cladding.Inside a sprinkler system was installed throughout the home, along with radiant in- oor heating, true divided berglass windows
and a high-ef ciency boiler.The creative use of space includes two sepa-rate units for a total of three baths, two kitch-ens, and nine bedrooms. The nishes in both units are superb, with extensive use of natural wood and re-milled existing doors; both units t naturally into the style of the home.
Both suites have open-plan living, with the living room, full-size dining room and kitchen

owing naturally from one to the other. The atmosphere is casual yet elegant with the striking mill-work – from the replace to the crown mouldings, from the base-boards to the bookcases – adding a sophisticated touch. As with any job, there were a few bumps in the road – a huge glacier boulder was found when the house was lifted, for example, and the property line was found to be two feet off, plus the fact that RJR had to work in an incredibly tiny space when the neighbour asked that a fence be installed between the two homes prior to the start of the renovation.This is when a client will likely, be thankful they have hired an experienced contractor.Brought back from the brink with a sensitive and stunning renovation, this Vancouver home is now a delight to the homeown-ers and to the neighbourhood, where it now ts in like it has always belonged.

Would you like that Fried, Baked or Barbecued?Personally, I prefer my electronics uncooked, and I’ll bet you do too.
For all of your home’s electrical service, repairs or installations, call the company you can trust.
This past season’s thunderstorms, undoubtedly, had many homeowners scrambling to unplug their computers and other expensive electronic equipment, with the intention of protecting them from a potentially damaging power surge caused by a lightning strike. A lightning strike up to two kilometres away can fry your home’s sensitive electronic equipment. But what about the fi xtures and appliances you are unable to disconnect, such as the range, refrigerator, laundry machines, furnace or air conditioner? It costs approximately $8,000 to $10,000 to replace the electronic equipment in the average BC home. This amount can more than double if you have invested in a sophisticated entertainment system, newer appliances, or if you work from a home offi ce. Although lightning strikes are relatively uncommon in the Fraser Valley, power surges are not unusual and every home is susceptible to the searing damage caused by a surge.
A power surge, sometimes called a voltage surge or a transient voltage fl uctuation, is a very brief spike in voltage, usually lasting only millionths of a second and varying from a few hundred volts to several thousand volts. Power surges can also vary in duration and magnitude. If the spike exceeds an appliance’s normal operating voltage requirement, an electrical arc is created inside the appliance which generates heat. This heat will seriously bake the circuit boards and other electrical components in the appliance and can potentially cause a fi re.
So where do power surges come from? An electrical storm is certainly a very powerful and destructive source, but surges also originate directly from your electrical utility supply company, to which some Mission residents can attest. On January 5, 2009 a sudden and very destructive power surge, originating from the power grid, left hundreds of Mission homes without power and major damages to electronic components and appliances. Homeowners were left to battle with insurance companies to replace damaged or destroyed possessions.
Small power surges are also created within your own home when larger appliances turn on and off. This is sometimes evident by lights that go dim, but then brighten up again when the appliance is turned off (although aluminium wiring or a grow op in the neighbourhood might cause the same symptoms, but those are topics for another day).The average home is hit with over 20 internal energy spikes in a single day. These internal surges are distributed throughout your home and can signifi cantly shorten the life of your electronics and appliances.
Many people have a false sense of security thinking that their point-of-use surge strips or power bars will provide all the protection needed. In reality, the common surge suppressor power bar should only be used as a secondary line of defence as many have a very limited or one-time use only. A surge strip or power bar that has been compromised is nothing more than an extension cord and
you will fi nd your electronics barbecued by the next surge that comes along.
The best line of defence against all types of power surges is a good quality main panel surge suppressor installed directly on your main electrical panel by a knowledgeable and certifi ed electrician. Telephone and cable line protection should also be included as surges can also enter your home by this method. A good quality panel surge protector will repeatedly absorb any incoming spike and reduce it to an acceptable level, thereby protecting the valuable electronics in your home or offi ce. There are many brands of surge protection on the market and some are defi nitely of better quality than others. Our knowledgeable electricians will be able to offer valuable advice, as a properly sized surge protector for the whole house can save you thousands of dollars from just one single incident.
Aside from the obvious benefi ts of whole home surge protection, there may be an added bonus. Some experts claim that homeowners can expect to get up to 30% more life out of their appliances, electronic equipment and even light bulbs, when this important safety device is installed. To protect your home investment, the installation of a full panel surge protector on your main electrical service panel is a must. Let’s reserve the cooking for something edible.
