Parks, Recreation & Culture Commission

Let’s get

waterwise! Stave Lake Water Supply Development Project The Abbotsford Mission Water & Sewer Commission (AMWSC) currently supplies drinking water to 160,000 homes in the City of Abbotsford and the District of Mission. Within the next two decades, the demand for water in these two communities will more than triple to approximately 430,000 users. While water conservation measures and more efﬁcient water use will help Abbotsford and Mission to manage short term water shortages, a new water source will be needed to meet demands by 2015. The AMWSC plans to develop Stave Lake as a new water supply for the City of Abbotsford and District of Mission. The Stave Lake Water Supply Development project includes the construction of new source works, a water treatment plant and transmission mains to convey water into the existing Abbotsford and Mission distribution systems. An energy recovery station will also be built to convert hydraulic pressure into energy for use at the J.A.M.E.S. Wastewater Treatment Plant to help to offset Greenhouse Gas emissions.

The Regular meeting of the Parks, Recreation & Culture Commission is scheduled for 4:30 pm on Tuesday, February 15, 2011 in the School District No. 34 Boardroom, 2790 Tims Street, Abbotsford, BC. For more information on the meeting, please contact Carla Soltis at 604-859-3134, Local 5287 or by email csoltis@abbotsford.ca.

The Stave Lake Water Supply Development project will provide a reliable and sustainable water source for the entire region and will allow for future expansion to accommodate residential, commercial, and industrial growth. Approximately $250 million is required for this project, which is beyond the AMWSC’s capacity to develop alone. Cost-sharing partnerships and a variety of funding agreements are currently being considered and the AMWSC expects to have recommendations for project funding for both Abbotsford and Mission Councils to review this spring.

Misread CT scans

NewsBytes MORE COURT

Investigation ordered into misinterpreted medical data Jeff NAGEL Black Press

Several B.C. patients may have cancer that went undetected because two unqualified radiologists misinterpreted the results of CT scans performed at hospitals in Abbotsford and Powell River last year. Health minister Colin Hansen has ordered an investigation into the cases of misdiagnosis to determine how the radiology physicians in question were allowed to read the scans when they were restricted from doing so. Fraser Health Authority CEO Dr. Nigel Murray said there may be untreated cancers in some of the 10 patients scanned at Abbotsford Regional Hospital and Cancer Centre where misinterpreted scans may have contributed to patients receiving incorrect treatment. “They could include missed

They were read by an unqualified radiologist. cancers,” Murray said. “Approximately three or four could be in that category.” False positives included one case where the radiologist wrongly identified a pulmonary embolysm in the lungs of an Abbotsford patient, but Murray said the patient’s doctor did not rely entirely on the scan result

and treated on the basis of other evidence as well. “At this time we believe there was no inappropriate treatment given due to false positives.” The radiologist in question performed a total of 170 CT scan interpretations in the eastern Fraser Valley between mid-August and mid-September 2010,

Crashed plane struck from behind Mid-air collision takes the lives of men from Surrey, Langley

Jason ROESSLE Black Press

The lead plane that crashed into Mission’s Nicomen slough was rear ended by another plane which made an emergency landing in a farmer’s field Wednesday, said a Transportation Safety Board (TSB) investigator. TSB’s Damien Lawson released the information Thursday afternoon a few hours after RCMP announced the victims were 70-yearold Patrick Lobsinger of Surrey, a passenger in the lead plane, and pilot Donn Hubble, 60, from Langley. The second plane was flown by Pitt Meadows’ Paul Knapp, said Mission Sgt. Miriam Dickson. The two planes were part of a foursome that regularly practised formation flying, and took off from Langley Airport. George Miller, airport manager, said

the small team has taken part in Remembrance Day fly-overs in the area for the past six years. The first reports of the crash came in at approximately 4:15 p.m. Wednesday. A man who knew the pilot of the second plane was told the planes collided at 1,500 feet and were locked together for moments as they fell. Ron Smit said his friend worked the controls and tried to disconnect the planes. At about 500 feet, the planes separated and the pilot found his controls were functional. He was able to shut off the fuel, power down the plane, and make an emergency landing into the field. Lawson said the area is officially recognized as a training area and that the four planes were flying in a diamond formation when the Continued on A7

The Diocese of New Westminster has filed a brief with the Supreme Court of Canada, asking for an end to the lawsuit that involves four churches, including St. Matthew’s parish in Abbotsford. The diocese has asked the court to decline to hear the appeal initiated by the churches – members of the Anglican Network in Canada (ANiC) – so it can stop spending money on lawyers and devote more resources to ministry. The churches are challenging a B.C. Court of Appeal ruling, which upheld a B.C. Supreme Court decision, removing their right to use church buildings and awarding the properties to the diocese. The diocese belongs to the Anglican Church of Canada. The churches broke away from ACC to join ANiC, following a disagreement over same-sex blessings. ANiC believes the blessings are contrary to core Anglican doctrine. The three other churches are in Vancouver.

NEW CONTRACT Leisure Recreation Group (LRG) will continue to run Abbotsford’s Centennial Pool. Council has approved a new contract which will pay the Victoria-based company $45,000 per year until 2013 to operate the outdoor swimming facility. LRG has been running the pool for the past 10 years. The new contract, which is $5,000 a year more than the previous deal, also has the option for a two-year extension.

Pilot died doing what he loved From A5

incident occurred. The lead plane was lifted from Nicomen slough early Thursday afternoon by helicopter, then deposited at a Mission firehall parking lot, where a crew removed the wings and prepared to truck the aircraft to a TSB facility where the remainder of the investigation will occur. Formation flying is a regular occurrence in this airspace, said Lawson, and the distances between planes are not regulated and are up to the individual pilots. “This is really just a tragic accident.” Lobsinger was a longtime Delta Hospice Society volunteer and former pilot involved with the Boundary Bay Flying Club. He died at the scene, and Hubble, also a member of the Boundary Bay Flying LOBSINGER Club, passed away after being taken to Royal Columbian Hospital. In a press release, Delta Hospice Society executive director Nancy Macey said Lobsinger died doing what he loved – flying. “This tragic news hit many of us very hard at Delta Hospice who have known and worked with Pat for almost 20 years,” said Macey. “Pat had devoted his life to serving people and was one of our greatest advocates. He loved people and he lived his life fully every day, while living with his own health issues which he just pushed aside.” Lobsinger and Hubble were members of a formation group called Delta Flight. “Donn was our formation leader. He’s a very serious, safety-minded person,” said fellow pilot Harry Pride. “He organizes our ground instruction and our practice flights. Pat was a teacher and a pilot.”

propriate actions.” One of the 10 patients where scan interpretation problems were flagged has since died, a case Murray said is under investigation but could be due to natural causes. Fraser Health and the Vancouver Coastal Health Authority are notifying a total of 3,400 patients who may have been affected by the work of the two radiologists. The Powell River radiologist worked there full-time from April to October 2010. The Abbotsford radiologist worked here temporarily for a month, and had been previously involved in a similar incident of analyzing scans in the Cranbrook area. Both lacked the appropriate credentials or experience to analyze CT scans. The doctor at Abbotsford was from out of province, but was professionally credentialed and licensed in B.C., although without the authority to interpret scans. Besides potential cancers, the scans may have involved scans of organs or heart conditions, Vancouver Coastal officials said. There were a total of 900 cases in Powell River where suspect scan interpretations were re-interpreted by qualified radiologists and then adjudicated again by another group of doctors on Vancouver Island. A total of 130 of those cases were found to require further checks with patients. Neither of the two radiologists are now practising in B.C. Dr. David Ostrow, CEO of Vancouver Coastal, said he is also worried some cancers may have gone undetected due to the faulty readings at Powell River. “It absolutely should not have occurred,” he said, adding he was “deeply troubled” that procedures of the health au-

thorities and the B.C. College of Physicians and Surgeons were ineffective. “We do have a screening process and that screening process failed,” Ostrow said. “The ball was dropped in a whole bunch of places.” The two health authorities knew about the suspect scan results since last October but Vancouver Coastal did not notify the health ministry until Feb. 4. Hansen said he only learned of the Fraser Health incident Thursday (Feb. 10). The CEOs said they had to perform due diligence before telling Victoria. “I want to apologize for the stress and any new anxiety this may cause,” Hansen said. “The incidents raise important questions that need to be answered as quickly as possible so all British Columbians can have confidence in their health care system.” Hansen has appointed B.C. Patient Safety and Quality Council chair Dr. Doug Cochrane to conduct a two-part investigation of the incidents and report publicly. Cochrane is charged with ensuring within 30 days that all radiologists now working in B.C. are correctly credentialed. He’s also been given six months to examine all aspects of the incidents and make recommendations to ensure they are never repeated. Fraser Health says all 170 patients affected in the Fraser Valley will receive a registered letter and the 10 patients or families with the most urgent concerns have or will be directly contacted. Patients with concerns can contact the Fraser Health Patient Care Quality Office at 1-877-880-8823 or email pcqoffice@fraserhealth.ca.

Confessed killing to Langley priest From A4

rang out while they waited in the vehicle. As they drove away, the boy saw smoke coming from the house. The man told the kids that his wife wasn’t coming with them because she was still sleeping. The man dropped off the kids and then proceeded to a church in Langley, where he confessed to a priest, telling him the killing was “an act of love” and he loved his wife “more than anything in the world.” He phoned police to turn himself in, and was arrested at the church.

Investigators concluded the victim had been shot three times – twice in the torso and once in the head. This is what killed her, and not the subsequent fire that the man ignited, the judge said. A metal canister was found between the woman’s feet. The man has been remanded to the Forensic Psychiatric Hospital in Coquitlam, where he has been in custody since his arrest. The matter now proceeds to the B.C. Review Board, which will determine whether he receives an absolute discharge, a discharge with conditions, or remains in the psychiatric hospital.

QUESTION

Council raises

OF THE WEEK Do you support salary raises for the mayor and council?

It amazes me how there are always enough funds to give themselves raises, but not enough for the community. Honestly, the people of Abbotsford should be the ones voting on their salaries, not themselves. Moomur

To answer, go to abbynews.com

Where’s the taxpayer, “the employer,” in this equation? Something is wrong with this picture. In my opinion, they get a raise when they earn it. rhiebert

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:

Do you still use handheld devices while driving?

It is also a shame that they have not been completely forthright about the ﬁnancial obligations with the Heat. What do they have to hide that they can’t keep the people who are paying for all of the expenses in the loop? We know you are wasting our money, council, but be upfront and timely about it. Do you only want the public upset about it once per year? The anger and frustration doesn’t go away between your press announcements. Robert

Valentine’s Day on the other 364 Andrew

Holota

On Point Seven Ways to Have the Best Valentine’s Day Ever. That was the headline on the press release in my email inbox. Oh, my imagination raced into racy gear. But, as usual, I downshifted and actually read the thing. It was from a New Age-type psychologist, and listed stuff like “Breathe in Love; and Love is Energy.” Oh pifﬂe. The doc probably orders tofu for Valentine’s dinner, too. Mind you, she did recommend “Practising forgiveness.” That’s a good one. My wife practises that a lot. Me, I don’t have to practise much, on account as to how I don’t have a lot to forgive, unless I’m forgiving myself, which is pretty much an ongoing exercise. I’ve become pretty good at it.

Anyway, since this document had nothing to do with anything remotely resembling what I originally imagined, I lost interest in it. However, it did pose an intriguing question. What do real women think would be among the Seven Ways to Have the Best Valentine’s Day Ever? So off I went to do a few minutes of in-depth research. The one guy who happened to be within earshot of my ﬁrst mini-interview offered up the stereotypical male perspective. That supported my initial decison to omit males from the polling, and avoid degrading our stereotyped gender any further. However, the men reading this, and who are probably already losing interest, may want to pay attention. What I discovered from my extensive survey of the women in my immediate vicinity provided important insight. The majority of the responses were along the lines of, “big whup.” Whoa! What about the ﬂowers, the bling, the obligatory mushy card?

Not one woman listed any of those things. A couple of respondents said dinner was appreciated, at a restuarant, without the kids in tow; or at home. The latter would feature a dish she would like. Hint: The man is supposed

What I discovered from my extensive survey of the women in my immediate vicinity provided important insight. to know this and be able to prepare it. In this speciﬁc case, I happen to know it is not steak on the barbie, and a cold beer. Said man is going to have to get creative. That was a key word, too – creative. My test gals wanted to see some imagination. An unexpected weekend

getaway. Or a day doing something they’d like, that their partner wouldn’t normally do. How do you feel about getting your legs waxed, guys? OK, just kidding. (Or maybe not!) Here’s the bottom line, gents. My survey group – ranging from newly married to relationship veterans – were unanimous in opining that Valentine’s Day did not register a major ping on their romance radar. It is a Hallmark occasion – a marketing ploy to spur spending. And there’s the irony. All that money spent on ﬂowers, and bling, and mushy cards, when it really doesn’t mean much. Well, actually, it can, especially not on Valentine’s Day. I know, I just lost some of the guys, there. Far more important, you see, is what happens the other 364 days of the year. That’s what it takes, lads, if you wish to be more than a lowly spud in the great, colourful landscape of romanticism. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have just one day left to get creative.

Getting tired of TransLink So the South Fraser municipalities are mulling over leaving TransLink – good! For too long TransLink has used South Fraser municipalities as milk cows to fund politically prestigious and very expensive SkyTrain projects in Vancouver. For too long, TransLink has misrepresented expensive SkyTrain planning and has failed in its fiduciary duty to plan for modern, affordable and efficient public transit for the Lower Mainland, especially for those who live south of the Fraser River. For too long, TransLink has invented criteria to support its expensive SkyTrain construction program at the expense of modern light rail, yet if one scrutinizes TransLink’s claims, they become mere pixie-dust. One tires of overpaid TransLink’s bureaucrats, whose sole function is to bamboozle the public with a TransLink-speak of vague promises, distorted figures and invented facts.

fooled by TransLink, as only seven (soon to be six) SkyTrain-type rapid transit systems are in operation around the world, despite being marketed for over 30 years and out of those six only two, Vancouver and Kuala Lumpur (one of three different elevated metro systems operated in the city) are used for regional transportation, with the remaining systems being two demonstration lines and airport/fun fair people-movers. To date, there are over 450 cities around the world that operate one or more light rail/streetcar/ tram lines. Yet, the fact that modern light rail made SkyTrain obsolete two decades ago is lost by TransLink, who constantly invent new facts from myth to confuse the public. It is time for the South Fraser municipalities to leave TransLink and create their own transportation authority, let those north of the river who want gold-plated transit projects, pay for them.

Camera caught Cavalier Evidence brought police to Butorac Monique TAMMINGA Black Press

To catch a killer in Langley took old-fashioned police work, documents released in B.C. Supreme Court reveal. Two drug-addicted prostitutes had been killed within four months of each other in 2007 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but in two different cities. The MOs (modus operandi) were the same. Both suffered blunt trauma head injuries and strangulation, but the cases were being looked at separately. Investigators really had no leads in the death of Abbotsford sex trade worker Gwendolyn Lawton. Torrential rain had all but washed away any clues on the secluded site on Pemberton Hill in Abbotsford, where her body was found dumped down an embankment. But in the murder case of Langley City prostitute Sheryl Lynn Koroll, the killer wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t as lucky. Surveillance footage at the Mufford Crescent concrete plant where her body was found showed an older model white Chevy Cavalier driving in on the morning her body was found, the driver taking something out of the trunk, and leaving again. The vehicle returned a short while later and the driver got out, stepped out of view, and later drove away. The car on the surveillance tape had a luggage rack on the trunk. There were also unique â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Vanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; shoe impressions at the scene, as well as distinctive tire marks on the victimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wrist and on the ground. The tire track on her wrist matched that of a BF Goodrich tire. Officers narrowed down the two-door Chevy Cavalier as one made between 1988 and 1994. Police obtained a list from ICBC of all the white Chevy Cavaliers in the Lower Mainland which matched that description. There were 60 to 70. Police interviewed a number of registered owners of white Cavaliers that had sun roofs

and trunk luggage racks. Police knew they were looking for a vehicle with a BF Goodrich tire. Different teams of officers set out to interview the registered owners of those vehicles, and Butorac was the first such check. He wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t known to police, nor was he on their radar. When police arrived at Butoracâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Aldergrove home, they found he was not only the owner of a white Cavalier with BF Goodrich tires, a sun roof and luggage rack, but he was also wearing distinctive Van shoes. He later told police they were his only pair of shoes. They contained blood from Koroll, splattered on the shoelace and in the grip of the sole. When he was arrested and brought to a cell, some interesting conversations emerged from an undercover operation. Chatting with an undercover officer posing as his cellmate, the Aldergrove killer mentioned notorious serial killer Robert Pickton. Butorac said Pickton was â&#x20AC;&#x153;stupid for giving a 12-hour statement.â&#x20AC;? He told his cellmate he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be talking. DNA from his vehicle led police to look in Butoracâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s direction in trying to solve Lawtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s murder. As the jury learned at his trial, Butorac wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t known to local sex trade workers, nor was he on their â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;bad dateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; list. In July 2010, Butorac was found guilty, by a Supreme Court Jury, of two counts of seconddegree murder for the deaths of Lawton and Koroll. Butoracâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reasons or motivation for killing may never be known, however. Motivation was never part of his trial. He never took the stand. He is facing a third murder charge in the death of Aldergroveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Margaret Redford. Her body was found in Bertrand Creek on May 20, 2006, just blocks from where Butorac was living with his father.

Tax Free Savings Account (TSFA) TFSAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s were brought in three years ago and every year you can contribute up to a maximum of $5000 into a TFSA. The key to a TFSA is that all income and growth in the account does so on a tax free basis. For example, if you had invested $5000 back in 2009 and it had grown to $9,000, and then you withdrew the funds none of it would be taxable. A great advantage of a TFSA is that if you do not contribute the maximum allowed in any given year, the unused amount carries forward. Again for example, if you did not contribute money to your TFSA in 2010, then in 2011 you can put in $10,000 ($5,000 for 2010 and $5,000 for 2011). TFSAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s however are not like an RRSP. You do not get a deduction for tax purposes with a TFSA like you do with an RRSP. To learn more about TFSAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s go to www.CanadianIncomeReview.com REMEMBER:

Abbotsford News Saturday, February 12, 2011

First Sikhs met with hospitality This article is part of a community-wide centennial celebrations honouring the building of the National Historic Site Gur Sikh Temple (est. 1911). These centenary celebrations bring to the forefront the efforts of those first Sikh pioneers who helped to build our community. The Abbotsford News will be publishing a monthly article to correspond with a decade of Sikh Pioneer and Indo-Canadian history in the Fraser Valley, British Columbia, and Canada. Beginnings: 1900-1910 The first Sikhs to ever arrive in B.C. were on an official trip as part of the Hong Kong army regiments who were travelling through Canada in commemoration of Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee in 1897. Following this initial visit, a second contingent of Punjabi soldiers visited British Columbia in celebration of the coronation of King Edward VII in 1902. Arriving in Victoria on the Empress of Japan, on June 3, 1902, and led by Sardar Major Kadir Khan Bahadur, it was this group of South Asians who became intrigued at the possibilities of residing in B.C. The larger community tended to treat the Punjabi soldiers with respect, as papers exclaimed, “Turbaned Men Excite Interest: Awe inspiring men from India held the crowds.” The first few Sikhs arrived in the Fraser Valley from Punjab, India in 1905 and settled in the Valley by working on the farms and in the forestry industry. Almost all the men who arrived in B.C. worked in labour industries such as forestry, fishing and the railway. On average, these men earned from $1 to $1.25 a day, which was less than the pay received by Caucasian workers. Wages being so low and discrimination rampant, most South Asian men

Early Sikh settlers in the Valley took physical jobs that offered little pay, on farms in the forest industry. lived together, with often between 20 to 50 men living under the same roof. The Abbotsford Lumber Company owned by the Trethewey family, employed many of these Sikh workers who first came to the Fraser Valley. It was the Trethewey family who also donated the lumber, which was carried on the backs of Sikh men, so that they could begin the construction of the first Sikh Temple in the Fraser Valley, today designated as the National Historic Site Gur Sikh Temple, located on South Fraser Way. After 1906, South Asian migration into B.C. increased, and the racial tensions which had for those early years remained at bay also became a reality. That year some 700 South Asians arrived, and the Canadian government took notice. Furthermore, because employers preferred to hire Punjabis due to their work ethics and lower pay, many Caucasian workers Continued on A15

resented their presence in Canada. Racial chaos ensued from 1906 onward, as South Asians were laid off from work, barred from public facilities, evicted, physically abused by people and the police, as well as in the local press. On Jan. 8, 1908, an Order-inCouncil required any immigrant entering Canada to arrive on a continuous journey from his or her country of origin. This ban

hit the South Asians and Japanese immigrants hardest, hindering the wives and children of even those men who already lived in Canada, from immigrating. As we will see in the next article, the continuous journey legislation formed the backdrop of one of the darkest episodes in Canadian history, The Komagata Maru tragedy.

Police bust three properties Weapons and pot seized during raids Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News

Abbotsford Police busted three properties on Wednesday, resulting in the seizure of weapons and drugs. Const. Ian MacDonald said a search warrant executed by the gang suppression unit in the 33200 block of Robertson Avenue turned up a loaded shotgun, a loaded rifle, ammunition and a small amount of marijuana. A suspect was taken into custody.

Road project grows The scope of the Clearbrook Interchange project could get bigger. Due to competitive bids and a surplus of funds, the city plans to petition the provincial and federal governments to include reconstruction of Marshall Road, to Townline Road, into the original plan. The $25-million project is being funded equally by all three levels of government and the city needs approval before it can proceed. The city cost would be $1.6 million. If approved it would be the second time the project has been upgraded. In August, 2010, sewer mains, water main and widening of Marshall Road was added to the original plan.

In the 27600 block of Nathan Place, police in the drug enforcement unit discovered a grow-op with 2,400 plants in the basement of the home. MacDonald said the operation was “sophisticated.”

Further information was not yet available. The Municipal Integrated Emergency Response Team assisted in both busts. The third search warrant was executed by the patrol divi-

sion, which found a 700-plant grow-op in the 30800 block of Sandpiper Drive. MacDonald said no one was home at the time. No names or possible gang affiliations have been released.

Stolen Mercedes followed through city streets Abbotsford man charged Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News

An Abbotsford man who was allegedly in a vehicle involved in a police pursuit in Chilliwack in May 2009 has been charged in connection to another pursuit in Langley on Friday, Feb. 4. Michael Jacob Milligan, 30, has been remanded in custody and is next due to appear in Surrey provincial court on Feb. 17 for a bail hearing. He has been charged with dangerous driving, possession of stolen property over $5,000, and possession of a controlled substance. On Feb. 4, at about 2:20 p.m., a black Mercedes caught the attention of a Langley RCMP officer as it made a highspeed turn from 32 Avenue and headed north on 272 Street in Aldergrove. The vehicle had no front licence plate. The officer caught up to the vehicle, and a check of the rear plate showed the car was stolen. The Mercedes then travelled west on Highway 1 and exited at 232 Street, where the officer lost sight of it. Mercedes Benz Canada called Langley RCMP to advise that they were tracking a black Mercedes on GPS

Michael Milligan, 30, has been charged in connection with a police pursuit. as it drove through Langley. The vehicle had been stolen Jan. 30 from a residence in north Langley. The Air 1 police helicopter was in the area and observed the vehicle being driven erratically, including abrupt U-turns, unexpected lane changes across three lanes of traffic, and hitting speeds up to 150 km/h. At one point, the vehicle narrowly missed another car, forcing the motorist into the oncoming lane. The Mercedes then entered the Willowbrook Mall parking lot, where two occupants exited the car and ran into the mall. The driver was seen removing some of his clothing. He then purchased and wore a new shirt. Lower Mainland Police Dog Services found the driver in the mall and arrested him. They retrieved his discarded clothing from the garbage. Police were unable to locate the passenger. Police found the

suspect in possession of a bag of what was believed to be methamphetamine. Milligan has an extensive record, according to the provincial court database. He is due to appear on June 14 in Chilliwack provincial court on two counts of possession of stolen property, relating to a police chase through Chilliwack in May 2009. He is alleged to have been in a stolen GMC Yukon before a woman, Cassandra Rowell, allegedly rammed police vehicles and attempted to flee. She was shot by police, and survived. Rowell was charged with several offences, but died in custody early last year from an undeter mined cause. Another man involved in the incident, Tyler Cavan Suel, pleaded guilty in June and was sentenced to five years in jail for dangerous driving, flight from police and driving while disqualified.

Emerging group blends musical styles Casino Jazz Trio in concert this month Kerrie-Ann SCHOENIT Abbotsford News

hree budding musicians are challenging the boundaries of progressive jazz. Jonathan Tobin, Stephan Smith and David Park emerged on the local music scene four years ago playing simplistic funk as the Casino Jazz Trio. The Grade 12 students from MEI Secondary have since evolved into other genres, mixing elements of Latin, Cuban jazz, swing, bebop and alternative rock. “For me, I feel that jazz is a really powerful means of expression. It’s influenced pretty much every style that’s come after it,” said Tobin. “But we don’t really want to limit ourselves to one audience, so we try to incorporate different sounds.” Tobin’s percussive, floating and occasionally dissonant piano lines are accented by Park’s relaxed drumming style and Smith’s flair on the alto saxophone.

Incognito, Muse, Radiohead, Mute Math, Miles Davis, John Coltrane and Monty Alexander. The group plays a combination of original compositions and jazz standards.

communicate with audiences through music is great, even if it may not be their cup of tea.” The trio is currently preparing for the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival in Idaho (Feb. 23-26) and recording a full-length studio album with local producer Rick Havinga. Their debut EP Casino was released last February and featured several original compositions, including Tobin’s award-winning ballad “The Rain.” “We’re doing what we love and making music together,” said Tobin. “This is a way for us to hone our skills. If there happens to be an audience there as well, that’s cool too.” Casino Jazz Trio performs at Gourmet Gallery on Feb. 19 at 7:30 p.m. with Scott Currie. Shows are also scheduled at House of James on March 4 and 5. “We’re going to throw in a lot more explorational elements to our music,” said Tobin of the concert. “It’s going to have a live jam feeling.” Gourmet Gallery is located at 3033 Immel Street. General admission is $5 at the door and $3 for students.

fully affected by the horrors of battle, Bauman returns home to find he has lost more than he could ever have imagined.

After the sudden demise of Maverick later that year, Warrington and founding member Louise Burns left the band. The Evin sisters decided to take a hiatus from the music industry to regroup, and later emerged with former Savage Blade drummer Eric Hoodicoff, Cameron Brass and Alex Varon Lacey-Lee and TashaRay grew up listening to their dad’s rock and roll collection, which still influences their music today. Tigerlily features several upbeat dance tracks, infused with indie-disco, pop and rock. “As you get older, your music matures with you,” said 25-yearold guitarist TashaRay. “We’re not afraid to write about certain subjects. You just have to write what you feel. If somebody relates to it, that’s awesome.
