Real estate market shows local variation Despite climbing home prices and tighter mortgage rules, home sales in the Fraser Valley are on the rise this spring. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board processed 1,608 property sales in May, an increase of nine per cent compared to 1,477 sold in May 2010 and an increase of six per cent over April’s 1,516 sales. “Overall, the Fraser Valley market is in a balanced position, however, there are significant differences amongst individual communities and property types stressing the importance of getting local expertise if you’re thinking of buying or selling,” said board president Sukh Sidhu. “For example, sales of single family detached homes in South Surrey/White Rock, Cloverdale and North Delta remain brisk with those markets favouring sellers, however, in Abbotsford and Mission high inventory and downward pressure on prices is good news for buyers.” In Langley, Surrey Central and North Surrey, conditions remain balanced for sales of detached homes. A new monthly report released by the board shows variation in home prices. In May, the benchmark price for Fraser Valley detached homes was $529,810, an increase of 2.8 per cent year-over-year. The benchmark

price is the predicted sale price of a typical property in the Fraser Valley. However, May’s average price for detached homes was $630,870, an 11.6 per cent increase over May 2010. Sidhu says this growth has been influenced by the sale of higher-end homes or homes with larger lots. “The average price and its percentage change often do not provide an accurate picture of the real market, which is why we talk about prices of ‘typical’ homes that most people are buying or selling,” he added. In May, the benchmark price of Fraser Valley townhomes was $324,730, a decrease of 1.1 per cent compared to $328,295 in May 2010, while the price of apartments was $250,988 in May, a decrease of 0.5 per cent compared to the $252,221 price in May last year. May also finished with 2.9 per cent more active listings than it had in April – 9,978 compared to 9,697 – but 12.6 per cent fewer than the 11,411 listings that were active during May of 2010. Overall, the real estate board reported 3,070 new listings in May, which translates to an increase of 5.2 per cent over April but a decrease of 11.2 per cent compared to the 3,457 new listings received in May 2010.

I am a self-confessed “car guy” and have been racing, restoring, and appreciating all kinds of vehicles since the day I brought home my driver’s license. Over the years I noticed how difficult it can be to find the right property for “toys”, from cars to boats to recreational vehicles.

Home targeted twice

First an arson, followed by a shooting Vikki HOPES
An east Abbotsford home was the site of two targeted attacks this week, including a shooting early yesterday morning. Just before 3 a.m. Wednesday, residents reported hearing eight to 12 semi-automatic rounds being fired in the area of Marshall and McMillan roads. Police traced the shooting to a house in the 2000 block of Monteray Place, a five-home cul de sac located north of Marshall and east of McMillan. Const. Ian MacDonald said no one was injured in the incident. Several bullets struck the front of the home, including the living room window, front door and garage. Neighbours reported seeing a person, likely a man, running from the street and getting into a vehicle on Marshall Road. Investigators are still trying to gather more detailed descriptions of both the suspect and the car. On Wednesday, investigators at the scene were looking at an assault rifle, but MacDonald could not confirm whether it was the suspect weapon. He also said that for the safety of those in the home, he could not identify how many people were in the residence at the time of the shooting. The house was also targeted Tuesday at about 1 a.m., when a fire was set to some shrubbery at

Semi smacks Sumas overpass Bridge damage estimated at more than $200,000
Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News
An accident in which a truck hit the underside of the Sumas Way overpass on Tuesday morning can be blamed on two issues, according to a representative with the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure. Doug Wilson, area manager of bridges, said the truck had been authorized to travel the route from Surrey to Maple Ridge and use the underpass, but the permit listed its height as 4.8 metres. He said the trucker then missed the signs on the south side of the underpass, indicating a height clearance of 4.62 metres. “The permit should never have been issued, but the truck driver should have noticed the signs,” Wilson said. The truck, owned by Ludeman
WELL CAPACITY BOOSTED Watering bans shouldn’t be an issue this summer, due to the approval of the Bevan wells groundwater supply project. The City of Abbotsford recently received an environmental assessment certificate. The Bevan wells have been used at a lower capacity, said Tracy Kyle, Abbotsford’s water and solid waste manager. The wells can now be used at full charge. The $3.5-million project will increase the pumping capacity of the four operating wells from the current rate of 74.9 litres per second to 290 litres per second. Mitigation wells are presently being installed at Horne Creek and Boa Brook to augment the water flow in the creeks so they aren’t impacted, said Kyle.

Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure inspect damage to the bridge on Sumas Way on Tuesday morning. Three of the beams were damaged. Trucking Ltd. of Surrey, was headed for Maple Ridge at the time of the accident. The vehicle was travelling north
on Sumas Way, and the tank that it was transporting hit the north side of the overpass as the semi was emerging from
beneath the structure. It is now being determined whether the trucking company’s insurance will cover the estimated $200,000 to $300,000 repair costs, or whether the ministry will foot the bill. A spokesman for Ludeman Trucking said the company is waiting to hear the outcome, but stands by a solid 40-year reputation. “We handle over-sized cargo regularly. I can’t remember the last time we’ve had an incident,” he said. “There are rules to be followed, and we followed them.” Wilson said a temporary post is holding the structure’s damaged girder in place. Drivers can expect lane closures when more extensive repair work begins in another couple of weeks. It is expected to take two or three months to complete, he said.

the front of the home. The homeowners extinguished the fire with a garden hose before it could spread. A police car was parked outside the home all day Tuesday. The accelerant burn line could be seen along the driveway. He said the occupants of the home do not have a criminal background, although they have had previous contact with police. A property title search indicates the home was purchased in the fall of 2003. A neighbour described the owners as “very nice, soft-spoken people. I’ve never heard of anything happening there,” he said. The News has learned the couple are the parents of Shafa Aram, 29, who was sentenced to four years in prison in February 2003 for manslaughter. He shot Gregory Huebner, 41, five times on Jan. 9, 2009 as Huebner sat in his car at an apartment complex at 2970 Gladwin Rd. During Aram’s sentencing hearing, it was revealed that he was a dial-a-dope drug dealer who went by the street name “Savio.” He got
in Huebner’s car with the intention of conducting a drug transaction, and shot him after Huebner pepper-sprayed him in the eyes. Aram was initially charged with seconddegree murder but pleaded guilty to manslaughter. This is the fourth targeted shooting in Abbotsford this year. On Jan. 4, eight to 12 shots were fired at a home at 2504 Bradner Rd., narrowly missing the head of a 25-year-old woman who had just pulled into the driveway. On Feb. 20, 10 shots were fired at a home on Hope Road, where a family with no criminal background lived. The man who police believe was the intended target lived in a different house on the same street. The third shooting was on March 11 at a residence in the 32900 block of Gatefield Avenue. Four adults and two young children were home at the time. Anyone with information about the latest shooting is asked to call the Abbotsford Police at 604-859-5225 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-2228477.

HST expected to create jobs From A4
estimated the average family spends $350 more per year under the HST– and that’s why he’ll vote to bring back the PST. Bringing it back won’t be easy, or cheap. The panel estimated the province would lose $820 million in the first year, have to reinstate provincial tax offices which cost $35 million each year to operate, and possibly repay Ottawa $1.6 billion it received under the HST agreement. If left intact, by the year 2020 the HST is
estimated to grow the economy 1.1 per cent and create 24,400 more jobs than it would under the PST/GST. The Fraser Institute released an analysis on the HST June 3 estimating the average B.C. family will pay $953 less in sales tax in 2014 with a 10 per cent HST rate, though increased corporate taxes would reduce overall tax relief to $750. It also said eliminating the HST would only reduce the tax bill of an average family by $73 a year.

Comment on any story online at abbynews.com or email newsroom@abbynews.com Published and printed by Black Press Limited 34375 Gladys Avenue, Abbotsford.
Region’s come a long way The huge crowds that have gathered at downtown viewing sites to watch the Vancouver Canucks ’ drive to win their first Stanley Cup have been celebratory and well-behaved. No matter that they’re crammed onto narrow city blocks straining to see what they can on distant big screen monitors. Surrounding municipalities have also jumped on board, multiplying the sites as the series moved to Boston for games three and four. Abbotsford, Burnaby, Surrey and Richmond all set up big screens for large gatherings of fans to soak in the Stanley Cup vibe. It’s human nature to share the company of others at monumental occasions, be they happy like a victory in the Stanley Cup, the arrival of a new year, or tragic like the 9/11 terror attacks. Most world class cities have some sort of easily accessible location to host huge gatherings of people: New York has Central Park ; Paris has the Champs de Mars below the Eiffel Tower, London has Hyde Park, Berlin
has the wide boulevards and parks around the Brandenburg Gate. Limited space and short-sighted urban design have left Vancouver without such a venue. That absence was a contributing factor to the 1994 Stanley Cup riot when post-game crowds ran amok downtown because they had no place to go. The lessons learned from that experience were put to good use during the 2010 Winter Olympics , when organizers created satellite gathering sites to serve the crowds seeking some Olympic buzz. It worked. That spirit has fueled the Stanley Cup street party. The addition of suburban sites has spread the party atmosphere around the Metro region. The lack of stories on the nightly news about stabbings and liquor seizures at these sites are testimony to how well they’ve been managed and how far the region has come since ’94. – Black Press
Yale treaty is the toughest yet Tom
Fletcher
B.C. Views The treaty with the Yale First Nation in the Fraser Canyon was hastily approved as the B.C. legislature adjourned for the summer last week. This treaty was by far the most significant work of the legislature session, and it may make or break the hugely expensive B.C. treaty effort. Yet it received all of four hours of debate during the abbreviated spring legislature session and will probably get little attention when it reaches the House of Commons for final approval. A few eyebrows were raised when Chief Justice Lance Finch of the B.C. Court of Appeal entered the legislature to give royal assent to the treaty and a handful of other bills. This would normally be the duty of Lt.-Gov. Steven Point, but he was on a four-day visit to promote literacy at reserves in the Quesnel and Williams Lake area.
I’m advised by the lieutenant-governor’s staff that this trip had been scheduled for some time, and his absence had nothing to do with the treaty awaiting his signature. It is purely a coincidence that Point is a former tribal chair of the Sto:lo Nation, which sent a delegation to the legislature to protest the Yale treaty just before it was tabled. The only substantive scrutiny of the treaty, and the only vote against it, came from independent Cariboo North MLA Bob Simpson. He stressed that he supports the Yale’s right to a treaty, but detailed the Sto:lo’s objections. Their central objection is that the 150-member Yale band is an arbitrary creation of the Indian Act, a splinter group of the larger Sto:lo Nation. The treaty formalizes the Yale’s control over key canyon fishing and rack drying sites that were vital to survival for thousands of years. Ottawa outlawed transfer of native hereditary property rights in its notorious potlatch law of 1884, and native fish sales in 1888. This disrupted whatever order had been imposed by Sto:lo clans on the fishing sites. Some Sto:lo people
were moved south to reserves in the Fraser Valley, where they were expected to abandon their traditional ways and become farmers. Sto:lo Nation president Joe Hall put it to me this way: “I don’t want to be like Donald Trump and look at people’s birth
Their central objection is that the 150-member Yale band is an arbitrary creation of the Indian Act. certificates, but the Yale are a Sto:lo band. They would have been chased out of there a long time ago if they weren’t.” In the treaty debate, Simpson put it to Aboriginal Relations Minister Mary Polak that the federal and provincial governments have resorted to a “firstpast-the-post” system to force progress on treaties. He said the tiny Yale community gets a huge advantage by complet-
ing a treaty, while some Sto:lo bands remain at an early stage of negotiations and still others aren’t in treaty talks. Polak cited a section that is now standard in modern treaties. It protects the constitutional rights of other aboriginals where a court upholds a claim to Yale territory, which they will soon own as fee-simple property. Polak insisted the Yale treaty will ease tensions in the disputed fishing sites, where violent incidents have taken place. She argued that exclusive access to the main areas of dispute was long ago included in the Yale’s original reserves. The treaty will provide a process for temporary access by other people, native and non-native. We will see if she is right, perhaps as early as this summer. There are two regions of B.C. where the encroachment of European settlers led to shooting wars with aboriginal people. One was the Cariboo-Chilcotin and the other was the Fraser Canyon.

Robert FREEMAN Black Press
A Chilliwack man and woman were killed when their vehicle left Highway 1 and plunged into the Vedder Canal early Wednesday morning. The two people, in their mid50s, were heading east at the time of the 4:45 a.m. accident. “For whatever reason, they left the road just prior to the cement barriers and ended up in the canal between the two bridges,” said RCMP Staff Sgt. Jim Simmill at Fraser Valley Traffic Services. The cause of the accident is still under investigation. Most accidents at the bridge over the canal have involved westbound, rather than eastbound, traffic. The names of the victims are not being released until

Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News
The Abbotsford Police got their man Monday afternoon on a logging road between Yale and Spuzzum. James Douglas Campbell, who was wanted on a Canadawide warrant for a parole violation, was found riding a bicycle at around 4 p.m. and was arrested without incident. Const. Ian MacDonald said police tracked him to the area after releasing information earlier that day about his whereabouts. Police reported that Campbell, 60, had been tracked to Deroche (east of Mission) last Wednesday. He was next traced to Hope, where he used an ATM and bought items at a convenience store. He now faces a charge of breaching his parole. Campbell was wanted for violating his parole conditions after failing to return home on May 27. He had been released from prison on May 11 after serving a 24-year sentence for sexual offences against three girls – ages 12, nine and seven. He abducted one of them while she was walking to school.

Bronze at nationals
An Abbotsford student has returned from the Skills Canada competition with a bronze medal in carpentry. Bentley Klassen, of Abbotsford Collegiate, was among five local students to compete in the national contest held June 2 and 3 in Quebec City, and the only one to place in the top three. The five were among those who won gold medals at the provincial skills competition held in April at Tradex in Abbotsford and qualified to go to the nationals. The other four national com-
petitors from Abbotsford were: Shelby Prodeahl, a Cascade Culinary Arts student competing in the culinary arts category; Aaron Spitters from Abbotsford Collegiate in architectural CAD; Andrew Graham of Abby Collegiate in electrical wiring (secondary); and Morgan Cox of University of the Fraser Valley in electrical wiring (post-secondary). Skills Canada draws together about 500 young people each year to compete in more than 40 trade and technology areas.

Kevin Richmond (right) along with Barry Drews and Les Rever are organizing the second annual 3rd CAV Ubique Memorial Ride for the Fallen on June 11.
Riding for the fallen
Katie BARTEL Black Press
Last year’s Memorial Ride for the Fallen was only supposed to be a one-time event. That is until organizers came face to face with B.C.’s silver cross families. “I could not say no to the silver cross moms,� said Barry Drews, vice president of the 3rd CAV (Canadian Army Veterans) Ubique Unit, which organized the ride. “They told me they couldn’t wait until next year. I knew we had started something here, that we couldn’t just let it go.� The second annual Memorial Ride for the Fallen is on June 11 starting at 11 a.m. This ride is not going to be your typical hog show. Yes, there’s going to be motorbikes of all calibre screaming down the highway, and riders, who at first glance come off as being tough and gruff with their scruffy beards and leather chaps. But if you look closely enough, you’ll likely catch a glimpse of their super sized hearts. The Memorial Ride for the Fallen was organized as a way of honouring and paying respect to B.C. soldiers who have lost their lives (nine to date) and to show their families that their children, their siblings, their nieces and nephews will never be forgotten. Hundreds of riders from all over B.C. will gather in Vancouver and ride their bikes down Highway 1 all the way to the Lickman Road exit in Chilliwack. A memorial service will be held at the cenotaph to remember soldiers from B.C. who
lost their lives fighting in Afghanistan. Silver cross families will be in attendance. Organizers hope to attract 1,000 riders and $20,000 in donations. Funds raised will go to the Military Family Resource Centre, and to the Honour House Society. Visit www.honourhouse.ca.

The Vikings of Reik Félag are invading this weekend’s Optimist Family Fun Fair. Made up of 40 history buffs, the Norse Culture Recreation Society brings the Viking age into the present with interactive living history portrayals. On Saturday, the MSA Museum’s front lawn will be converted into a seasonal trading village, equipped with tents, crafts, games and activities for all ages. The society, whose Icelandic name is translated to travelling fellowship, draws on archaeological, literary and historical sources to create an authentic experience. “We really try to present life in a Viking village as opposed to just the warriors in a Viking village,” said museum public relations coordinator Sheila Louise Wright, who is also a member of the Norse culture society. “We consider ourselves to be liv-

She’s getting into character for Saturday’s Optimist Family Fun Fair. ing history experts or experimental archeologists. There is certainly a portion of entertainment to it, but we’re definitely more about teaching you what Vikings are actually about.” The village will illustrate what it was like for travelling merchants during the Viking era, what kinds of items were traded,
and what was used for bartering. Reik Félag members will bring some of their weapons, armour, weaving, music, food, spinning, stories, metalworks, and other arts and crafts to show and trade. Visitors will also have an opportunity to try their hand at spinning with a drop spindle, carry a Viking sword or learn
to play Kubb. One aspect of the education is dispelling some of the myths associated with the Vikings, such as the fact they didn’t wear horned helmets. There’s a lot more to Viking culture than being raiders or pillagers, said Wright, and much of that is still evident today. For example, she points out that Canadian law is actually based on a Viking judicial system. “There’s a lot of things the Vikings gave to our modern world that people don’t realize and that’s the kind of stuff we’re trying to educate people on,” said Wright. “They were a very sophisticated society which people don’t realize. They weren’t just a bunch of barbarians.” The fair runs from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Free food and refreshments will be provided by the Abbotsford Optimists Club. MSA Museum is located at 2313 Ware St.

The initial excitement of fans was quickly washed away as the Vancouver Canucks went down to a dismal 8-1 defeat to the Boston Bruins. The AESC will also carry Games 6 and 7 on its JumboTron, if the series goes that far.

The BMX BC Cup was held in Abbotsford June 5, featuring a new world-class track. The Olympic-sized Supercross track was funded in part by the not-for-profit athletes charity B2ten ($110,000) and the City of Abbotsford. It is one of three in North America, and the only one in Canada now similar in size and structure to the track used during the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. Last weekend’s event included the Men’s Elite Union Cycliste Internationale Class 4 and 5 events. In the Class 5 category, 19-year-old Tory Nyhaug of Coquitlam came in first place. Nyhaug has established a name for himself in BMX racing, finishing fourth in the UCI BMX Supercross World Cup in the Netherlands on May 28. He now sits sixth in UCI world rankings. “He’s our local star, we’re really proud of him,” said Steve Baxter, president of Abbotsford BMX.

Valley soars to 7-0 start Adrian MACNAIR Abbotsford News
The Abbotsford Valley Rebels squeaked by the Nanaimo Timbermen 3-2 on Sunday to move to 7-0 in the West Coast Senior Lacrosse Association Senior B standings. Head coach Jim Nishiyama said it was one of the lowest scoring lacrosse games

he’s ever been a part of, but added the team was shorthanded with just 12 runners. “It was scoring by committee,” he said, adding Tommy Tran netted the winning goal with 10 minutes left in the game. Although the offensive output was limited, Valley’s standout goalkeeper Matt
Morehouse kept them in the game, allowing just two goals on 31 shots. Morehouse turned aside 47 of 49 shots in a 15-2 drubbing of the Langley Warriors last Friday, posting a 0.959 save percentage, while picking up two assists of his own. The offensive output was heavy in that game
as Jordan Hernandez scored four goals, including a powerplay marker, and added five assists on the night. Valley was scheduled to play Nanaimo in the rubber match tomorrow (Friday) in Abbotsford, but that game has been tentatively moved to Sunday in Nanaimo because of the Stanley Cup final.

Mariners still winless despite goal surge Adrian MACNAIR Abbotsford News
The Abbotsford Mariners launched a season-high threegoal offensive output against the Tacoma Tide last Sunday, but it wasn’t enough for the victory, as defensive lapses resulted
in coughing up four goals and the game. It was the third loss of the young season, accompanying two draws, putting the Mariners in a tie for last place with the Washington Crossfire in the Premier Development League
Northwest Division. “From an attacking perspective, we were obviously delighted with the three goals,” said head coach Ian Knight, but added defensive blunders were like “shooting ourselves in the foot.” Midfielder Adriano

Abbotsford golfers James Lepp and Nick Taylor had a tough time at the Times Colonist Island Savings Open golf championship in Victoria last weekend. The locals were paired in the final round, with Lepp shooting a 4-under 66 on the final day to push him into a five-way tie for 17th place. Taylor came in 22nd. Meanwhile, Adam Hadwin, who was second on the money list heading into the tournament, missed the cut after two rounds of 73. Only one Canadian finished in the top 10, Dustin Risdon of Alberta, who finished in third place at 10-under-par. Mexico’s Jose de Jesus Rodriguez shot 4-under-par on Sunday for a four-round total of 267, picking up the win and $32,000. The next Tour stop is in Kamloops, June 9 to 12 at the Rivershore Estates and Golf Links.
