Spring Reminder to Residents
Sumas Mountain Road - Temporary Road Closure
Family Emergency Preparedness Day - May 1 at Mill Lake
During a rainstorm event in June 2010, the Kilgard Creek culvert on Sumas Mountain Road, near Lower Sumas Mountain Road, collapsed. Single lane alternating traf¿c was implemented as an interim measure until the culvert could be replaced.
Are you prepared for an emergency? Make sure you and your family are safe during an emergency by attending the Annual Family Emergency Preparedness Day at Mill Lake Park (Bevan Entrance) on Sunday May 1 from 11am to 2pm.
The culvert design is now complete and the replacement is scheduled for May 2011. To facilitate the culvert replacement and to address safety concerns during construction, a full road closure will be implemented May 2, 2011 to May 27, 2011. Road detour signs will be posted to direct traf¿c to the newly opened Whatcom Road connector.
There will be FREE Emergency demonstrations from emergency providers, community group kiosks, information on emergency planning for your family, games and activities.
Enquiries may be directed to Jan Loots, P.Eng., Manager of Projects, Engineering Department, telephone 604-864-5514. Thank you for your cooperation.
The City of Abbotsford is working to create a 25-year development vision for the area around the University of the Fraser Valley (UFV), otherwise known as the University District or ‘U District’. Once complete, the U District vision will provide planned and predictable development direction for this area, and support the City’s strategic goals of growing UFV and attracting increased commercial and industrial investment in the City. The City of Abbotsford invites you to a neighbourhood workshop to discuss future development ideas and opportunities and provide input into the future vision for the U District.
Motor vehicles should be parked in driveways or on parking pads, not on the lawn or in landscaped areas. Unlicensed motor vehicles are not allowed on the street, including the area between your property line and the roadway. You are allowed one unlicensed vehicle on your property, provided it is not a wrecked vehicle.
The neighbourhood workshop will be held on May 11th, 2011, between 4:30 and 7:00 pm, at the University of the Fraser Valley in room B121, 33844 King Road, Abbotsford, BC. Once the ¿rst phase of public consultation is complete, staff will develop U District vision concepts and present them at a second public open house to be held in June.

An officer with the Abbotsford Police Department (APD) was suspended with pay yesterday and is under investigation for impaired driving after he crashed into a pole on April 14. Const.

Coalition or majority? Key issue this election, say candidates Neil CORBETT Abbotsford News
Local candidates say Canadians will head to the polls on Monday to choose between either a Stephen Harper Conservative majority government, or a coalition government led by NDP leader Jack Layton. With Layton surging ahead of the sagging Liberal in the polls, it is he, rather than Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff, who is pegged as the alternative to Harper. “That is the stark choice that is presented to voters,” said Abbotsford Conservative candidate Ed Fast. He said Canadians will choose between “a stable Conservative majority government,” that can continue to provide a sound economy to pay for important social programs; or a Layton government that will focus on spending and high taxes “beyond what Canadians can afford.” “He (Layton) has already promised some $70 billion in spending for programs,” said Fast. He said the Conservatives have a plan for the economy that will see economic stimulus spending end, and a return to balanced budgets by 2014. “The other parties have no plan for realizing that.” Abbotsford NDP candidate David Murray is thinking big. He said he has seen polling projections that put the NDP
with as many as 100 to 115 seats. “We still have an opportunity here to even have an NDP minority government,” Murray said. His director of communications Scott Fast said it was clear from election advertising that the other parties see Layton on the rise. “We are a little bit charmed when we watch the hockey games, and all the attack ads are aimed at us. They’re taking us seriously,” said Scott Fast. “We’re in the big leagues now.” He noted that the Conservatives have spent much of the campaign accusing

•
the opposition parties of getting together with the separatist Bloc Quebecois to form a coalition, but that argument has been taken away as the NDP steals support from the BQ in Quebec. “There aren’t going to be many Bloc members left – they’re down to about seven seats,” Scott Fast predicted. “National pollsters all see a huge reduction in Bloc seats.” The local campaign asserts that the NDP is popular because the party knocks on doors, and responds to what people tell them. “They’re concerned about their pensions, health care, that life is becoming less affordable, the affordability of post secondary education....” said Scott Fast. “Jack Layton is the most respected leader in Canada, and the leader more people feel good about, as opposed to Ignatieff and Harper.” Abbotsford Liberal candidate Madeleine Hardin said the recent polls show that people want new leadership. “Sadly, the attack advertising the Conservatives did on Ignatieff worked,” she said. Although he holds a seat that is considered safe Conservative territory, incumbent Fast said he is taking nothing for granted in this campaign. He has told his volunteers,” “If you coast and you boast, you’re toast.”

NewsBytes ARMED ROBBERY Police are seeking a suspect in the armed robbery of a convenience store in Abbotsford Thursday afternoon. A man entered Granny’s Market at 3590 Gladwin Rd. at about 1:30 p.m. and demanded cash. Const. Ian MacDonald said the cashier reported that the suspect appeared to have a long gun tucked into the waistband of his pants. When the employee called for help, the man fled with only some cigarettes. He headed north on Gladwin Road, and a police dog unit was called to the scene, but the man was not located. He is described as Caucasian, about 35 years old, 5’ 9” and about 200 pounds. He was wearing blue jeans, white runners and a black hoodie. Anyone with information is asked to call the Abbotsford Police at 604-859-5225.

The fire began at the back of the building, located at 31545 Walmsley Ave., at about 10:45 a.m. The facility is owned by the Fraser Valley Hindu Society and is the only Hindu temple in Abbotsford. Deputy Fire Chief Mike Helmer said the blaze was reported by staff of the adjacent Lafarge Canada concrete plan. Fire, smoke and water damage is estimated at $250,000.

Economics, P3 funding among debate topics
From A4
“We’ve cleaned up after the Conservatives before, and we’ll do it again,” she said. By contrast, Fast listed his government’s economic achievements, saying they met the challenge of the global economic crisis with an action plan that saw the largest infrastructure investment in the nation’s history. “It’s no surprise
Canada has been referred to as an economic star,” he said. “Tax freedom day comes three weeks earlier than it used to under the old Liberal regime,” he added. Fast was asked whether the city is being forced into a P3 water system to get federal funding. He responded that most of the infrastructure grants from the federal government
D N G A N I GR EN OP
are for projects with traditional financing, and a small part are set aside for P3 partnerships. He said city council has chosen to pursue that funding model. “It will be going to referendum, and the people will have their say,” Fast pointed out. Murray used one of his opportunities at rebuttal to state: “No private company should own water.”
Hardin said, “The Liberals will get rid of the P3 fund. It’s not working. Only eight per cent of the fund has been drawn.” The Abbotsford Chamber of Commerce partnered with the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board in hosting the event. David Mackay, candidate for the Marxist-Leninist Party of Canada, did not attend.
‘Only wave that counts ... washes in on election day’ From A4
to bolster candidates in other nearby ridings, such as the Chilliwack-Fraser Canyon’s Mark Strahl. “In the past, it has been such a whitewash in this riding that they have been able to send help – workers – to other ridings that need help,” said Murray. “I think we’ve tied them up.” Liberal candidate Madeleine Hardin echoed his sentiments. “I think Ed is running a bit scared,” she told The News. “He’s up against three strong candidates. “It’s flattering. He’s feeling the
heat. He’s called in the biggest gun of all.” Fast responded that he doesn’t take Abbotsford for granted, and his campaign has been “working feverishly” to make sure the Conservative vote gets out. He said Abbotsford was probably chosen as a convenient location, with a site that could be booked last-minute. “He (Harper) knows there are a lot of Conservatives in the Fraser Valley, and this is a central location for them,” he said. “The only poll that counts – the only wave that counts – is the wave that washes in on election day.”

‘Vote mob’ phenom Alexandria Mitchell Contributor
No disrespect to your grandmothers and grandfathers (they do their civic duty every few years), but this election, the narrative isn’t about them. 2011 – the election that started with the typical back and forth political spin between major parties, and Elizabeth May shouting from the sidelines, has taken a new direction. Suddenly, it’s energetic, engaged, and including a whole demographic of voters who, in recent elections, have usually been withdrawn from the political process. While the Tories claimed this was an election that no one wanted, it’s being turned on its head by the growing movement of ‘Vote Mobs’ across the country. At 35 universities and counting, hundreds of youth are taking to their campuses and producing videos to
share with the rest of their country. The message is simple: Youth are voting. This election seems to be everywhere, and especially dominating social media, which accounts for growing youth participation. After all, if you want to get young people involved, you have to go where they are. No one really knows what the vote mob movement will result in this election. Consider this: most youth aren’t registered to vote, most youth don’t have a landline to be tracked by Elections Canada, and thirdly, most youth haven’t given their cell phone number to a political party in order to be targeted through that medium. If youth actually show up this time, this election could leave everyone surprised – without anyone having seen it coming. Alexandria Mitchell is the co-organizer of the UBC VOTE MOB

QUESTION
OF THE WEEK Will you have voted in this federal election?
Parking for disabled The purpose of the disabled parking sign is for those with dificulties or a disability to be able to have parking that is convenient so as they can get around with more ease. It does not state to leave a disabled parking spot available in the case that maybe someone with a wheelchair may also be at the same facility as you at the same time. All who possess a disabled parking sign are entitled to using it when they are in need. All of us who have a disability have a hard enough time living our lives without others who feel the need to compare our disabilities.
To answer, go to abbynews.com
LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:
Are you following national media coverage of the federal election campaign?
inappropriatejudging I don’t think it is any of Ms. Gardner’s business regarding anyone’s disability and their right to use a handicapped parking spot. That judgment was made at the time the person applied for the disability placard and does not need to be questioned further.

YES: 48% NO: 52%

Dawn discourse on feline philosophy Andrew
Holota
On Point It is 5:50 a.m. I am in bed. I should not be awake. Yet, I am. I am awake because there is something sitting on my back. More specifically, a very black, very large cat – 15 pounds to be exact. Cat says … “meow”… which loosely translates into: Might I inquire as to when you and the missus intend to rise from your slumbers, and proceed to the kitchen, where my breakfast shall be prepared? Get lost, Fritz. (That’s the cat’s name.) That is not the correct response. I must now continue to sit on your back. It’s not even 6 a.m. and I’m talking to a cat.
Cat, it’s not time for breakfast yet. Time is a human concept, to which cats do not adhere. I don’t care. The clock on my bedside table says it’s too early for breakfast. Go away. Unlike humans, we cats are not slaves to small devices with glowing symbols. No, you’re slaves to your stomachs. That’s only because you control the food. If the principle of free will existed for cats in this house, we would not be dependent upon you to eat, which is oppressive. Say what? Controlling access to food is oppressive. There are many examples of this throughout your human history. Governments that control the food, control the people. You are not a people. You are a cat. Yes, a hungry one. And one with attitude. Take your oppressed bulk off my back, and go have some kibbles. I’ve been snacking on those things all night. I need real food. You’re aware history also teaches that oppression can lead to rebellion.
Now you’re rebelling? Not if you feed me. Can I presume your sister is going to join your little uprising? She is poised, at this moment, to hack a furball into your slippers. Nice. By the way, speaking of your better-behaved sister, have you ever noticed she doesn’t do a dawn walk between my shoulder blades?
You are not a people. You are a cat. Yes, a hungry one. And one with attitude. She leaves the heavy jobs to me. Ha. That was a pun. I’m glad I humour you. Now what about some action with the can opener? Go do it yourself, if you’re so clever. That’s not funny. It’s too early for this. I want to sleep. If you didn’t stay up all day, and took proper naps like cats do, you
wouldn’t have to sleep so long at night. Now you’re telling me I don’t have to work? Work is another human concept which cats do not endorse. We do not work. We just are. Ah, behold Fritz, the overweight, existentialist, philosophizing feline. No need to be condescending. OK, seriously, then. How do you know that you “are” … that you exist? I’m hungry, therefore I am. I sense a certain theme in this discussion. Good. Now what about breakfast? Give me a moment to wake up from this dream, in which I’m talking to a cat. You are awake. I was afraid you were going to say that. Pass me my housecoat. What am I, your servant? No, you’re right. Silly me. That would be my role. Here, have some Fat Cat Crab Tidbits with Whitefish Sauce ... I swear you eat better than I do. We had that for dinner last night. Y’know ... I grow weary. I truly do. You’re grumpy. You should get some sleep.

Make down time mandatory for health-care workers While we were going through over 60 9-1-1 calls with my child in medical distress, from March to November of 2009 I was given a perspective into our health care system that most don’t get to experience. We found out at the end she was having seizures due to a prescription medication. We have been slowly healing from that year, and as I have reflected back on the things we experienced in the medical system, one of the things that stands out most is witnessing doctors and nurses who were working on second and even third winds, and were visibly burnt out.
I witnessed many mistakes do to exhaustion. I witnessed a doctor give a patient a diagnosis that was for a different patient. He was visibly working past his limitations, as there was a look of exhaustion on his face. I have done a lot of thinking about that time, and the thing that keeps coming back in my mind is that commercial bus and truck drivers are forced by law to have down time before they are able to resume driving, due to the subsequent impairment that will occur if said down time is not taken. I feel this same consideration should be taken with
our health-care workers. I understand we are facing a shortage of health-care workers at this time, but I strongly feel it is in the best interest of all that a law be imposed on health-care workers as it is on commercial drivers. Imagine health-care workers working at optimum performance because they are not burnt out; how much more our medical system would run at optimum performance; how many more health-care workers you would not have out on stress leave; and how many more people you would attract to the field if they knew the burnout rate was lower.

Re: Bad turn for a good deed, April 26. It is a terrible shame when a citizen gives his own time and money to help keep the kids off the streets and become competitive athletes, and then have a few bad apples ruin it for everyone. I am a retired shop teacher who would be glad to help you get your equipment fixed. You
should not have to carry this load by yourself. Perhaps others involved in the BMX or local industries could help. Thanks for helping the kids, we need more people like you. I am sure activities such as BMX has an effect on crime rate. Thomas D. Lester

YOUTH HELPING YOUTH – Fountainview Academy students are SUPER EXCITED about the local ministry this concert will benefit! Admission is by FREEWILL MONEY DONATION collected AT THE DOOR for “CYRUS CENTRE”. You will not want to miss this opportunity to be thoroughly blessed by listening to the GREAT gospel hymns such as “How Great Thou Art”, “Be Still my Soul” and “When I Survey the Wondrous Cross” as well as several others. At the same time you will have opportunity to support this worthy ministry located in our own community! The guest musicians, Denis Letourneau and Susan Schaffer, will captivate you as you listen to the beautiful selections they have chosen to perform. Denis has been the Concertmaster of the Okanagan Symphony for 33 years, and Susan, the assistant Concertmaster, has played in the Okanagan Symphony since 1992. Together they form the Romanza del Arco duo and have been featured with the Royal Winnipeg Ballet and on CBC radio. They have also performed for many dignitaries, and this is their 13th year as violin and viola instructors at Fountainview Academy. There will be a FREEWILL OFFERING collected during the concert for the school’s gospel music ministry. INCOME TAX RECEIPTS can be issued for donations of $25 or more. At the 2010 Christmas concert, many in the audience brushed away tears as the majestic strains from the “Hallelujah Chorus” were sung. The students are confident the music they share at this spring concert will stir your heart and bless your soul in much the same manner! Doors open at 6:15 pm. An informative DVD of “Cyrus Centre” will be shown shortly before Special Guest Artists the concert begins. The students look forward to having you attend!
Responding to a proven need, Cyrus Centre was created as a Drop-In Resource for youth. The youth who utilize the services come from all walks of life. We see many kids walking around hopeless and looking for a helping hand. Our services extend beyond teens to include the whole family including siblings and babies of teen moms. Services provided through Cyrus Centre are: • Laundry, Showers • Help exiting the streets • Emergency & Extreme • Freedom from sexual Weather Shelter exploitation • Emergency Dental Care • Youth Phone & Computers • Meals, Food Hampers • Music Lessons
• One to One • Advocacy • Referrals • Family Support • Clothing Vouchers
Most importantly relationships are built with youth showing them compassion. Many youth have been restored to their families, yet there is much work to be done, currently we have only 4 emergency youth beds in Abbotsford which Cyrus Centre provides. Staffing is handled by 5 FTE’S, 4PTE’s and approximately 16 volunteers and practicum students.

Abbotsford News
An alleged Red Scorpions gang member arrested after a bust at his Aldergrove residence in November 2009 has pleaded guilty to two offences, while all charges have been stayed against his girlfriend. Jason William Brown, 36, pleaded guilty Wednesday in New Westminster Supreme Court to possession for the purpose of trafficking and possession of a prohibited firearm with ammunition. Both offences are linked to
Brown’s activities in Abbotsford. Another trafficking charge and a weapons charge were stayed, as was a charge of possession of property obtained by crime. Brown’s girlfriend, Terra Lynn George, 25, had been charged with four of the same five offences. The couple’s rented home in the 26900 block of 26A Avenue was the subject of a raid by Abbotsford Police, Langley RCMP, the Integrated Gang Task Force and the Municipal Integrated Emergency Response Team on Nov. 12, 2009.
The two were not home at the time, but police seized two kilograms of cocaine, one kilogram of meth, a 9-mm handgun, a loaded magazine, two bulletproof vests, Red Scorpions clothing, and about $12,000 cash. Brown and George were arrested several days later. Brown’s sentencing date has yet to be set. He was also among 18 members of the
Hells Angels or associates who were arrested in 2005 in Vancouver and Kelowna. The two-year investigation was dubbed Project E-Pandora. That project led to Brown being charged with two counts of conspiracy to produce/traffic meth and two counts of commission of an offence in association with a criminal organization.

DRINKING WATER WEEK MAY1-7
Here in B.C. we often take our tap water for granted, but it is a finite resource that we should value
at a glance
and protect.
■ 25% of Canadians have no idea where the water that flows out of their taps comes from. ■ Canadians use an average of 329 litres of water per day - twice the amount used by Europeans. However, the average Canadian thinks they use only 79 litres per day. ■ Canadians admit to knowingly engaging in water wasting activities such as leaving the tap running while washing dishes (44%) and hosing down their driveways (19%). ■ Canadians are more concerned with saving electricity than water: 29% of Canadians don’t know what they pay for their water, but only 10% don’t know what they pay for their electricity bill.
We need to value our drinking water industry and agriculture, and the effects of climate change all place enormous pressure on our water supply.” Drinking Water Week, May 1st - 7th, is dedicated to creating awareness of the value of our water, our water systems, and the people who make it accessible and safe for us to drink. Many communities throughout B.C. are holding events to celebrate Drinking Water Week, including hosting tours of their local reservoirs and treatment plants, and we encourage you to take the time to visit them. Check your local newspaper to find out about events in your community, or visit www.drinkingwaterweek. org for activities and educational resources provided by the BC Water & Waste Association.

Tips for conserving water:
DRINKING WATER WEEK MAY1-7
■ Take shorter showers ■ Check your toilets and faucets for leaks ■ Turn-off the water while brushing your teeth ■ Purchase water-efficient appliances
BC Water & Waste Association and others who keep your water safe and clean, ask you to value our water and celebrate Drinking Water Week 2011. Visit: www.drinkingwaterweek.org
1. British Columbians use less water each day compared to other Canadians. 2. Most indoor water use occurs in the bathroom. 3. It does not matter what we put down our drains, as all of our wastewater gets treated in B.C.

■ Install low-flow shower heads ■ Wash your car with a bucket instead of a hose ■ Install low-flow toilets that use less water
True and False: Test your water knowledge by trying our quiz. T__ F__ T__ F__ T__ F__
ANSWERS: 1; F. British Columbia residents use an average of 490 litres of water per day compared to the national average of 329 litres. 2; T. We use 65% of our water in the bathroom, 20% for laundry, 10% for drinking and kitchen needs, and 5% for cleaning. 3; F. While it is true that most wastewater in B.C. is treated before it is returned to its source, we should be careful not to put harmful substances down our drains or in our gardens. These substances can harm fish and other aquatic creatures (check with your municipality to find out how to properly dispose of harsh chemicals).
When you turn on your tap and clean, safe water comes out,do you ever stop to think: how does it get there? Who brings it you? Where does it end up when you’re finished with it? BC Water & Waste Association and the Province of British Columbia have officially proclaimed Drinking Water Week May 1st to 7th, 2011. We invite you to celebrate this exciting week by “getting to know your H2O” – including where it comes from, where it goes, and how you can protect and conserve it. Here in B.C., where we have an abundance of natural resources, we often take our tap water for granted. However, there is no such thing as ‘new water’ – the water that we use continually cycles through the environment, and is reused again and again. British Columbians personally use an average of 490 litres of water per day compared to the Canadian average of 329 litres per day. That is about double what Europeans use! Although it may not be apparent to all of us, the costs and energy required to deliver water to our taps, treat it to be safe and clean, and safeguard the environment by managing wastewater, add up to billions of dollars every year in Canada. Daisy Foster, CEO of the 4,400-member BC Water & Waste Association notes, “Increases in our population, the growth of

Q&A: Federal candidate
Abbotsford News Saturday, April 30, 2011
A15
Looking good! www.abbynews.com Have a better look online!
Abbotsford riding federal candidates respond to the News’ questions
David MacKay, Marxist-Leninist Occupation: Retired postal worker and ESL teacher Marital status/children: Father of two Political experience: Has been a political activist since his youth when he was involved in the movement against the Vietnam War at the University of British Columbia and Simon Fraser University. He continues to advocate against the privatization of vital services like the post office. What are the most important issues of this campaign to you? The most important issues of this campaign are those of democratic renewal – ending the dictatorship of the present old-line parties including the NDP – and the election of anti-war candidates to the next Canadian Parliament. Is the P3 water plan good for Abbotsford, and is promoting P3s good public policy? I must say that on an ideological basis I am opposed to P3s since it is only through publicly and democratically controlled resource and public service plans that the interests of the people will be guaranteed.
MACKAY
Do you see the HST as a federal election issue? As far as the HST is concerned, I don’t believe in regressive sales taxes whether supposedly “harmonized” or not. Taxation is an issue at the election of any level of government and in this case the responsibilities of two levels do overlap at the present time. What is your reaction to the federal government being found in contempt of parliament? My reaction to the federal level of government being found in contempt of Parliament is that this was long overdue, but I am more concerned that the present government is in contempt of the Canadian people. My belief is that the Tories represent all that is bad in the Canadian body politic. Why should the people of Abbotsford vote for you? The people of Abbotsford should vote for me because of the policies of the party I am standing for - in the hope that the election of those who oppose our dying economic, political and constitutional system will give new support and courage to all those fighting against war, poverty and injustice.

Results of a vote on whether school uniforms should be introduced at Eugene Reimer Middle School could take up to another three weeks to be announced. Julie Stroszyn, acting president of the school’s parent advisory council (PAC), said the PAC wants to ensure that at least 90 per cent of parents cast a vote on the issue. Voting opened Wednesday at the school, and Stroszyn estimates that about one-third of parents took part. Those votes have now been sealed, while the process continues. She said parents who have not yet voted are welcome to do so at the PAC meeting on Monday (May 2) at 7 p.m. or at Eugene Reimer during school hours. The vote is open to parents of the school, as well as feeder elementary schools with students scheduled to attend Reimer next year. Under school district policy, one vote for each student enrolled at the school is alloted to the parents/guardians. There are almost 500 students currently attending Eugene Reimer. At least 66 per cent of the votes cast must be in favour in order for uniforms to be implemented. The percentage required used to be 75 per cent, but the board of education recently decided to reduce that number. The matter arose after a parent survey.

Two new recuits for UFV men’s hoops Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News
As the University of the Fraser Valley men’s basketball team rolls out its list of recruits, head coach Barnaby Craddock says there’s one common denominator. “We want guys who know how to win,” the Cascades bench boss said. “The biggest thing is, winning breeds winning, and we’re trying to recruit guys here who have had success.” Craddock’s two latest recruits – power forward Luke Braund and point guard Klaus Figueiredo – certainly meet that standard. Figueiredo helped the Alberta provincial U17 team to a national title in 2007, and won a 4A high school title
with the Paul Kane Blues of St. Albert. He’s heading into his third year of eligibility, after playing two seasons of college ball for the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology in Edmonton. Figueiredo fills a need at point guard for UFV, as veteran floor general Zeon Gray is planning to play professionally in Europe next season. “He had some interest from the Alberta Universities – Calgary and U of A – and he chose us,” Craddock said. “I think he’s going to be an impact type of kid.” Braund was a member of a B.C. AAA championship team with the St. George’s Saints of Vancouver in Continued on A27

Abbotsford-born goalie Nathan Lieuwen has been red-hot throughout the WHL playoffs.
Lieuwen leads Ice to WHL final Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News
When a team goes on an unexpected playoff run, much of the chatter tends to centre on how they knew they could do it, and how no one ever gave them any respect. Reflecting on the Kootenay Ice’s eyebrow-raising sprint to the Western Hockey League final, Nathan Lieuwen puts forth no such pretensions. “It may be a bit of a surprise to us as well, yeah,” the Abbotsfordborn goalie admitted
during a phone interview Thursday. “We knew we were capable of this, but it definitely wasn’t expected. Of course, we came in thinking we’re going to win every game, but for us to be playing this well, it’s awesome. “We’re having a lot of fun.” Indeed, the most stunning aspect of the Ice’s playoff run is the level of dominance with which they’ve achieved it.

New Botox® Q & A QUESTION: How does Botox® work … will it help to ‘stop the clock’ on further deepening of lines around my eyes and forehead?
Open Houses
Marion, Chilliwack
We want to hear from you. BC Transit is working with the City of Abbotsford and the District of Mission to develop a 25-year transit future plan.
ANSWER: Botox Cosmetic® is an injectable treatment derived from a purified protein and works by relaxing the muscles that cause the dynamic wrinkles, giving your face a more relaxed and refreshed appearance. Regular use of this simple treatment will soften expression lines and prevents the further deepening of lines. Botox® is a safe FDA approved treatment. A tiny amount of Botox® is injected precisely into the muscle that is being treated. A very fine needle is used so that the pain associated with the injection is minimal. It is a very quick simple procedure with no downtime. You can expect results within a few days and the effect usually lasts from 3-6 months.

The Yale Lions senior boys rugby team played a game of keep-away on Thursday afternoon that was successful on a couple of levels. Playing on their home turf against the Robert Bateman Timberwolves, their East Abbotsford rival, the Lions dominated possession en route to a hard-fought 33-22 victory. In the process, Yale retained the Abbotsford Cup, emblematic of local senior boys rugby supremacy, for the second year in a row. “They did a great job of controlling the ball – you’ve got to give them full credit for that,” Bateman coach Stephen Rowell noted afterward. “They didn’t give the ball up, and when you don’t have the ball, you can’t score.” A strong performance by Yale’s forward pack paved the way for the keep-away game plan to succeed. But on those occasions where they did spill the ball, Bateman was able to strike quickly. Former U17 national teamer Justin Douglas capitalized on one such turnover, sprinting 60 metres for a try that brought the T-Wolves to within 25-22 in the second half. But the Lions buckled down from there, and Tyler Barons’s late try in the corner sealed the win.

Outside centre Christian Styles and prop Paul Ahn also had big games for Yale. For the T-Wolves, Douglas finished with two tries, while Michael Rose found the end zone once and Jorden Best booted two converts and a penalty kick. Lions coach Doug Primrose said the victory represented a step in the right direction for his team. “We’ve got a lot of good athletes who have been playing rugby for a long time, but sometimes they get too individual,” he said. “We’re trying to get them playing as a team – 15 guys working together. Today, we did a good job of that for the most part.” The Lions clinched the Abbotsford Cup by going undefeated against the other four local schools. They defeated W.J. Mouat in league play and knocked off Abby Collegiate (AAA Tier 2) and Rick Hansen (AA) in exhibition action. Yale (3-0) maintained its perfect record in the Fraser Valley Elite League, setting up a big game against the Earl Marriott Mariners in South Surrey next Thursday. Both teams are unbeaten in league, and the winner receives an automatic berth into the Valley title game.

2009. After redshirting with the Trinity Western Spartans in 2009-10, he planned to transfer to the University of Western Ontario before changing his mind. “He decided to sit out this season,” Craddock explained. “He’s actually been studying at UFV since Christmas, taking classes and working. He sort of re-found his passion for basketball, and we’ve been talking to him for quite a while trying to get him to play here.” At 6’5”, Braund boasts a smooth shooting stroke from beyond the three-point line. Craddock’s previously announced recruits included Yale Lions guard Jordan Blackman and centre Mike James, a transfer from the University of Winnipeg.

entered the post-season as the No. 4 seed in the Eastern Conference, and after dispatching the No. 5 Moose Jaw Warriors in six games in the first round, they swept aside both the top-seeded Saskatoon Blades and the No. 3 Medicine Hat Tigers. Add it all up, and the Ice have won 11 straight playoff games – one shy of the WHL record. Lieuwen, 19, has been a huge catalyst, and his post-season numbers are off the charts. He leads WHL goalies goals against average (1.96), shutouts (3) and wins (12), and is fourth in save percentage (.929). He was particularly spectacular in blunting the Blades in the second round. Saskatoon was tied for tops in WHL goalscoring during the regular season, but after limiting them to five goals in four games, Lieuwen was named the Canadian Hockey League’s goalie of the week. “The playoffs are the time where your play is so crucial,” Lieuwen noted. “I’m just trying to stay focused on what I have to do – just go out there and do my thing. So far, it’s been working for me. “I’m just trying to take my team to a

Custom Vehicle Make Over
A Show Quality Classic “The process is definitely timeconsuming,” said Stobbe. “It’s a lot of work, but I’m happy with the car.” The Chevy arrived at the shop in mid-November with faded turquoise-ivory paint and several rust spots. It still had all its original parts, except for the engine and transmission. The first step was completely dismantling the car. Every nut and bolt was removed, the interior taken out and the body separated from its frame. “What we try to do is keep the original look of the car inside and out with some
Stuart Stobbe has reached a new career milestone. The owner of Valley Custom Rods and Collision in Abbotsford recently completed his quickest restoration project ever, on a 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air Post. Stobbe and his restoration team logged more than 1,000 hours customizing the classic car over five months – a rebuild that normally takes a year to complete.

minor changes,” said Stobbe. “The organization of parts is the biggest challenge ... getting them here on time and fitting.” The majority of parts used on the rebuild were imported from the United States through a supplier in Chilliwack. The Chevy is now equipped with a new engine, custom-designed chassis and air suspension. It features a Hilborn fuel injection system that provides one carburetor for every cylinder. Originally used in racing to increase horsepower, the system provides a constant flow of fuel to the motor. The vinyl interior has also been restored and new digital gauges were installed on the dash. However, the original radio and switches are still intact. “It’s gone from a daily driver up to show quality,” said Stobbe. “The undercarriage is now as shiny as the top side.” The restored Chevy is being unveiled at the B.C. Classic & Custom Car Show this weekend at Tradex. The annual event attracts hundreds of street rods, muscle cars, classics and race cars from across the Pacific Northwest.

Carter Bancks made a major impact when he was in the Heat lineup this past season. Ärst star honours in a 3-2 shootout win. He didn’t absorb any big hits during that game, but in the third period and in the hours afterward, the worst of his concussion symptoms returned – namely, a pressurized feeling in his head, accompanied by nausea. In retrospect, Bancks says he came back too soon. But it was his Ärst concussion, and he simply didn’t know how to analyze the symptoms. “It was 100 per cent my fault because with concussions, obviously a doctor and trainer can’t diagnose it completely because it’s all in how you feel,” he said. “When it goes on for a while with a concussion, you kind of have to remember what you felt like before and what normal is. “Looking back, I might have still had a couple symptoms that were lingering, and maybe should have left it for a
couple weeks after that. You live and you learn, I guess.” Finally returning in March was a huge accomplishment for Bancks, in the sense he was able to prove to himself he was all right. But at that point, his Ätness wasn’t where he wanted it to be – a product of spending the better part of four months on the couch during his convalescence. So the Ärst order of business for Bancks this summer is getting his cardiovascular level back to where it needs to be. “This year, I feel like I showed I can be a successful forward in this league, and I’ve just got to continue to blossom,” he said. “I’ve also got to put on weight, but I don’t want to lose quickness and speed. I want to stay fast. As I mature and Äll out, I think I’ll be able to do that. I’ve just got to work really hard.” Continued on A36

What kind of response have you gotten from other fans? "The response has been really good, actually. I've been asked to make a couple helmets for other people, but I'm kind of iffy on that because I want this to be my own thing. The thing is, if I don't have it on, I get in trouble from other fans. They all think it's great, and want to see more of it." What is it that you enjoy most about attending Heat games? "It gives people in Abbotsford something to do. I was born and raised here, and there really is absolutely nothing for young kids to do here. For this organization to step up and bring this here, it really puts Abbotsford on the map. Abbotsford was on the map with the air show, but to me, once it's gone, Abbotsford is a boring town. The hockey is worth it, and I want people to catch on to it."

his off-time to go read at local schools or make community appearances on behalf of the team. "I really enjoyed reading to the kids, I Änd that fun," he explained, adding that he always Ägured teaching may have been his career path had he not chased his pro hockey dream. He also had the chance to help out at practices for the Aldergrove Minor
Hockey Association. "That is where I got started, where I got to play," he said, reÅecting on being back in the Aldergrove Arena. "It was a neat feeling. I remember how many hours I practised there, so to be able to go back there, it brought back a lot of memories." Keith also spoke to some of the AMHA players following the tragic passing of one of their teammates, Coleton Nelson,
who died after being injured in a car accident in February. That was a very hard day, and much different mood from when Keith usually spoke to young hockey players. "It really puts things into perspective," he said. "To be a part of that, it was different, but very touching." Keith, who becomes a free agent on July 1, would love to be back for another season with the Heat.

He led the team in goals (20) and points (35) as well as shots on goal (216). A former second-round pick of the Chicago Blackhawks, he has two goals and Äve assists in 27 career NHL games with the Hawks and the New York Islanders. But ultimately, he knows there are a lot of factors that will determine whether he can stay close to home as he pursues his NHL ambitions, or whether he will be off to another destination next season.

Bancks headed for free agency campaign at that point. He’ll be an unrestricted free agent as of July 1, and while he’d welcome a two-way NHL contract, he’s just waiting to see how everything plays out. “I’d love to play here again, but it’s just a matter of what happens,” Bancks noted. “If Calgary’s interested, I would love that. But I’ve just got to be patient.”

Helen Nickel Sept. 11, 1929 - April 22, 2011 With husband Dan at her side, Helen passed into the presence of Jesus at 5:00, Good Friday, April 22. She was 81 years of age. She is survived by her husband Dan, four sons, Larry (Edna), Gordon (Gwen), John (Sue), Ron (Karen), brothers Henry (Elizabeth), Frank (Esther), Vern (Ruth), Victor (Shirley), sister Charlotte (Bill), eleven grandchildren, 3 great grandchildren and many nieces and nephews and extended family. She is predeceased by her brothers John and Bill. Helen was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba on September 11, 1929 to John and Amalia Martens, who moved to Greendale B.C. shortly after Helen’s birth. Helen’s life is a fascinating story of faithful loving service to her family, to others and to Her Lord. When her mother tragically died in 1944, Helen only 14 years of age assumed the care of the home and her younger siblings. After marriage to Dan Nickel in 1949 and the birth of her four sons, Helen and Dan felt the Lord calling them to overseas missions. Over a period of 20 years extending from 1965 to 1985 they served with distinction and great sacrifice in the countries of India and Indonesia. When health issues required their return to Canada they continued reaching out to the local immigrant community through their pa storal position at the Bakerview MB church. Even after retirement, Helen participated in 7 mission trips to India, and was involved with Dan in compassion ministries, loving and encouraging recovering alcoholics, prisoners, single mothers and many others in need. In 2001 Helen was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and entered Maplewood house in 2008. We sincerely thank the staff who cared for our Helen with tenderness and love. Helen will be fondly remembered for her exemplary life, her infectious joy, and laughter always bubbling out of a heart of pure love. We anticipate our joyful reunion with her in the Lord’s presence where she is now at rest. A memorial service will be held on Tuesday, May 3 at 7pm in Bakerview MB Church, 2285 Clearbrook Rd., Abbotsford. Online condolences may be given at www.woodlawnfhabbotsford.com. Woodlawn Funeral Home 604-853-2643
STEVENSON HORSTING “Rose” Marta On Tuesday, April 26th, 2011 our lovely mom, “Rose” Marta Horsting (Venturin) passed away peacefully at the age of 88 with her family by her side. Rose was born in the “Delair” house in Abbotsford and was raised on a farm in Clayburn, BC. She married her childhood sweetheart, Ted Horsting in 1939 (pre-deceased in 1991) and began raising their family. Not only did they raise 6 children but they were pioneers who cleared their land using horses. They eventually developed teamwork into one of the most famous fruit and vegetable farms in the Fraser Valley. Rose and Ted were known for their strawberries, raspberries, sour cherry orchard, and they were the first to grow broccoli, cauliflower and brussel sprouts commercially. Rose will especially be remembered by her generous nature, her great flair with cooking and feeding many family, friends, and farm workers, her love and enjoyment with young children, her bowling achievements, photography, love of music, many ceramics and her creative talent that she has passed on to many of her family members. She will be sadly missed by her children; Margaret, Mark, Ted Jr. (Donna), Patricia (Karl), Corinne (Rolf), and Teresa; her 14 grandchildren; her 12 great grandchildren; her sisters Adele and Olympia, and many other relatives and friends. The family would like to extend a warm thank you to all the nurses and staff in Baker 2, Dr. Winner, and Dr. Gill; as well as all her beloved friends and staff at Hallmark on the Park. A very special thanks from our family to Betty-Lou Dietz; to whom we will be forever grateful for her kindness, friendship and loyalty to our mom. An informal family gathering will be held on Sunday, May 9th to celebrate her colourful life from 1pm - 4 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations should be forwarded to Children’s Hospital, “Be A Super Hero” foundation.
