Winter is Here!
Lighten Up!
Snow & Ice Control
Please keep sidewalks, boulevards and footpaths next to your property clear of snow or ice, so others may safely use them. Under the City’s Good Neighbour Bylaw every owner or occupier of property shall remove snow and ice by 12:00 noon, the day after it accumulates. Failing to comply with the City’s bylaw may result in a ¿ne of $150.00.
Collection workers lift approximately 2,000 containers per day, which places signi¿cant strain on the body. To ensure the safety of collectors, maintain timely collection and reduce costs, limits have been placed on the size and weight of containers.
The goal of the City’s Snow and Ice Control Program is to maintain travel routes where there is snow and ice on roads and restore mobility for the traveling public. Our roads are classi¿ed:
The City’s bylaws may be viewed on-line at www.abbotsford.ca or, if you have any questions, call us at 604-864-5512.
Frozen Yard Waste Containers During frigid temperatures, yard waste is particularly prone to freezing in the yard waste container. The collection worker will try to empty the yard waste container by tipping it as usual, but the yard waste may stay frozen inside the can. The collection worker is not able to bang the container to try and dislodge the yard waste due to the damage that may result to the container when frozen. If your yard waste container and contents are frozen, try bringing it into a heated space a day or two before collection day so it thaws, and then put it out on the morning of the collection day by 7:00 a.m. Alternatively, during frigid temperatures, try using Kraft paper yard waste bags. follow us on

Public Notice Appointment of a New Member to the Board of Variance Members of the public are invited to submit their resumés and letters outlining their interest and quali¿cations for serving on the City of Abbotsford’s Board of Variance, as well as their anticipated availability for attending Board of Variance Hearings. The Board of Variance (BOV) meets when applications are received for minor variances to certain provisions of City Bylaws. When necessary, the BOV convenes on the third Tuesday of every month at 10:00 a.m., at Abbotsford City Hall. The BOV consists of ¿ve members who are appointed by Council. Currently, there is one vacancy on the Board. The BOV member will be selected on the basis of availability, experience and the expertise he/she can bring to the Board and not necessarily as a representative of a particular agency, organization or interest group. Correspondence concerning the BOV appointment must be directed to the Director of Legislative Services/City Clerk, Abbotsford City Hall, 32315 South Fraser Way, Abbotsford, B.C. V2T 1W7; email: bÀitton@abbotsford.ca or by fax: 604-853-1934 by no later than 4:30 pm, Friday, February 4, 2011.
• ¿rst priority (high volume and strategic arterial and collector roads, and major access roads to hillside areas); • second priority (remaining arterial, hillside areas and collector routes); and • third priority (remaining roadways not identi¿ed as ¿rst and second priority).
When placing garbage out for collection, remember the following: • Waste must be securely contained to ensure materials do not escape into the environment, • Garbage containers must be watertight with a secured lid and two separate secured handles • Garbage cans be no more than 80L in size and no can or bag must weigh more than 23 kg
First priority roads are maintained until conditions are under control subject to worker/equipment availability and weather. Only then are resources redirected to second priority routes and subsequently third priority routes.
City Waste Collection During Winter Weather
The City of Abbotsford, which takes a pro-active approach to snow and ice control, operates three anti-icing units (tanks containing sodium chloride solution) on four-lane roads and rural priority roads. The units are used to spray road surfaces before and during a storm. Anti-icing helps keep roads ice free and improves snow removal. Several pre-wetting units, which inject liquid sodium chloride into the salt/sand mixture before it is applied to roads, are also used by the City. These units increase the melting of snow and ice, and reduce the loss of salt/sand caused by traf¿c.
The City will make every attempt to collect curbside recycling, yard waste, and garbage during snow and ice conditions, however safety of workers, residents, and property always comes ¿rst. If there is any such risk, we won’t be collecting. If collection is missed, please set out your materials on your next collection day. The usual container limits will be doubled for areas that have missed a collection day. On some occasions the City, or its contractor, may provide additional collection as soon as possible after the missed collection day. For more information, please see: www.abbotsford.ca/engineering, or call 604-853-5485 regarding CITY pickup or 604-864-9177 regarding CONTRACTOR pickup.
The City does not remove snow and ice to bare pavement conditions. The public is encouraged to use caution, and wherever possible, park vehicles off the streets. Abandoned vehicles or vehicles obstructing roadways will be towed without notice to allow for snow clearing operations to continue and towing costs will be the responsibility of the vehicle owners. We ask that you do not plow snow from private properties onto the public roadways as this can result in visibility hazards and obstructions and will require additional time for clearing roadways.
Reduce Your Waste in 2011 The Holidays are over and time for the New Year. A great New Year’s resolution is to reduce waste starting with materials left over from the holidays. Try to reuse, recycle and compost as much as possible. Save and reuse boxes, wrapping paper, decorations, bows and ribbons.
The City will work 24 hour days until the snow ends and ¿rst priority routes are passable for travel. For more information, please contact the Engineering Operations Division at 604-853-5485.
Recycle your old, unwanted, incandescent light strings (wire only) at the Abbotsford Mission Recycling Depot: 33670 Valley Rd., 604-850-3551. Remember to remove the bulbs! Donate to charity, reusable toys and clothes that your children have outgrown.
Notice of Public Information Meeting Bi-Monthly Utility Billing
When trimming the branches off your tree, place them in your backyard composter or use them to cover your garden.
The City of Abbotsford is holding a public information meeting on January 17, 2011 from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm in the Matsqui Centennial Auditorium located at 32315 South Fraser Way regarding proposed bi-monthly utility billing. The public is encouraged to attend for information on the new proposed billing structure and the transition plan.
Real Christmas trees are accepted at the curb through the yard waste collection program. Trees must meet yard waste collection weight and size limits to be eligible for collection. Alternatively, you can drop off your tree directly to the Abbotsford Mission Recycling Depot, 33670 Valley Rd., 603-850-3551.

‘Unsafe’ ICBC spies Investigators reprimanded Jeff NAGEL Black Press
It’s bad enough ICBC investigators relentlessly videotaped an Abbotsford man in a fruitless attempt to reduce the payout he was due after being badly hurt in a car crash. But was it safe for the surveillance investigators to videotape him one-handed while driving on busy streets and highways at the same time? That’s the question raised by a judge that now has the insurance corporation back-pedalling. B.C. Supreme Court Justice Nancy Morrison last month awarded Ron Madill $760,000 for damages and lost future earnings stemming from the 2004 accident on Clearbrook Road, where Madill was a passenger in a vehicle that was hit by another car. ICBC hired private investigators who videotaped Madill for hours at a time on numerous occasions between 2005 and 2010. But Morrison concluded the videos did little to undermine his case and then noted much of

Ron Madill was under surveillance for five years by private investigators hired by ICBC. the recording happened while investigators were driving in traffic, tailing Madill on road trips all over the Lower Mainland and to the Okanagan. “The investigators testified they drove with one hand on the
wheel and the other hand operating the video camera, up at the side of their head, to allow them to view through the camera what they were taping,” the judge stated in her decision in the case. “That continues to be their

practice today, according to at least one of the investigators, which was interesting, considering from whom they receive their instructions, a corporation dedicated to road safety.” ICBC officials now say they’ve ordered all contracted investigators to cease such tactics, which violate ICBC guidelines requiring they drive safely and obey traffic laws. “We don’t think driving with a video camera with one hand and steering with the other is in compliance with those guidelines,” spokesman Mark Jan Vrem told Black Press. “It’s not a safe way to operate a vehicle.” Since ICBC’s private investigators work alone and not in pairs, it’s not clear how ICBC could have expected them to do anything but use a handheld camera while driving solo. Jan Vrem said the private investigation company ICBC uses had indicated it is installing dash-mounted cameras, which were to be in operation by this month. He said the videos recorded while driving happened before B.C.’s distracted driving laws took effect in early 2010, although court evidence suggests it continContinued on A7
Pot bylaw ‘cash cow,’ say critics Tips and inspections down in Abbotsford
Neil CORBETT and Kevin MILLS Abbotsford News
The District of Mission is facing a class action lawsuit from residents who say their homes were illegally searched by the grow-op busting Public Safety Inspection Team, and the B.C. Civil Liberties Association, working on their behalf, is in discussion with lawyers this week. The litigants claim the program, with its $5,200 inspection fees, is little more than a cash cow for the municipality. In 2009, Mission dealt with 219 files and levied 137 inspection fees, bringing $712,400 to the district for the year. Many Lower Mainland municipalities developed
such teams to combat growops, including Abbotsford. But Gordon Ferguson, Abbotsford’s manager of bylaw enforcement, is not worried about a lawsuit. The city’s team is far less active than when it first was formed, and now generally links its safety inspections with police busts. The Abbotsford Public Safety Inspection Team formed in 2005, and by 2007 there were three teams of inspectors. They investigated 725 properties, and 150 confirmed grow-ops were shut down that year. Those in violation faced $4,500 in inspection fees. Now there is only one team, and no longer a separate manager for the program. In 2010, Abbotsford performed 47 inspections.
Of those, 45 were found to be engaged in illegal activity (43 marijuana grow-ops and two meth labs). The 45 successful inspections generated $33,000 in fines and approximately $250,000 in fees. Ferguson said the number of grow-op tips from the public are way down from when the program started, and it’s likely many growers have packed up and left the city. In light of the Mission lawsuit, Ferguson is not overly concerned about legal challenges. “Bylaws are subject to challenges. All bylaws are,” he said. One of the leaders of the lawsuit is Mission resident Stacy Gowanlock. Continued on A7

CHICKS TRAMPLED About 150 chicks were trampled to death when metal thieves targeted a Bradner poultry farm on Monday. Abbotsford Police Const. Ian MacDonald said the thieves were stealing galvanized metal and stainless steel around the water supply of the farm located in the 7300 block of Bradner Road. He said the situation could have been even worse if the water supply had been more rapid, resulting in flooding. With temperatures below zero that day, the birds would have frozen to death. MacDonald said police have sent an advisory to farm owners, informing them of the situation and how to protect their properties from metal theft. Anyone with information is asked to call police at 604-8595225.
PEACEMAKING FISHING COURSE A two-day course next week in Abbotsford for sport fishing and aboriginal groups is geared to reducing fishing-related conflicts on the lower Fraser River. The focus will be on “peace-making” processes and developing skills for collaborative approaches, which is wholly different than “peace-keeping” efforts, said David Moore, executive director of the Fraser River Salmon Table. The workshops are set for Jan. 18-19 at Sumas First Nation. Attendees will delve into some of the access issues and challenges that arise on the lower river, as well as ways to foster relationships and capacity, while developing skills for better fisheries management. The “peace-maker” training program is being put on by a partnership led by the Fraser River Salmon Table and an Integrated Salmon Dialogue Forum drawn from a broad range of interests in the West Coast salmon fishery. The focus will be on a group of First Nations and sport fishing groups that have been meeting in the wake of an altercation on the Fraser near Chilliwack two years ago.

ICBC appealing judgment ‘Don’t get excited’ ued through much of last year. Video cameras aren’t on the list of handheld electronic devices drivers are banned from using under the new law, Jan Vrem said, but he noted their use could amount to driving without due care and attention. Madill said he can’t comment on the case because ICBC is now appealing the judgment and he doesn’t want to risk a lengthy delay in receiving his payout. But he was critical of the corporation’s investigation practices.
“ICBC’s conduct in handling people isn’t in the interest of the people they insure,” he said. “It’s in the interest of their bank accounts.” Before the accident, Madill was an avid motorcyclist, pilot, gardener, skier and skydiver. His head injury, which left him with headaches, vision and balance problems, means he likely won’t be able to keep his pilot’s licence or trucking licence. He’s had to ride a trike rather than the two-wheeled Harley he had before and he hasn’t skied since the crash.
Although videos shot on 12 different days were entered in court, they make up a small slice of hundreds of hours that were recorded of Madill, his family and neighbours. The corporation made no apology for hounding Madill or making extensive use of surveillance in other investigations. “We are dedicated to protecting our customers and their premium dollars against fraud and exaggerated claims,” Jan Vrem said. “We will not sit back and simply pass those costs on to our customers.”
Fighting city hall for a year

Gowanlock said his property came onto the PSIT team’s radar because of high hydro usage – properties are flagged at 93 kWh per day. He has a 6,000-square-foot home, a detached 1,200-squarefoot shop, an outdoor pool, a hot tub and landscape lighting. His property was using between 102 and 140 kWh per day. “And they feel it gives them the right to come into your home.” He says it took just 15 minutes for inspectors to say they had found evidence of a former grow-op. Gowanlock has been fighting city hall for more than a year, and has found other Mission residents with similar stories. In November, the district said it would be reviewing the process which allows the PSIT team to enter homes. But Monday, chief administrative officer Glen Robertson said “the program
is operating as it always has.” David Eby of the B.C. Civil Liberties Association said his group is concerned that municipal officials are using bylaws to get around the constitutional requirements of police officers, which he called “an unconstitutional approach to the law.” The association was an intervenor in a Surrey case in May 2010 that found Surrey safety inspections were contrary to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. He said the case against Mission could be expensive if the courts order that fines are to be refunded, and particularly if damages are awarded. “Municipalities should leave police to police work,” said Eby. The B.C. Court of appeal ruled that Surrey’s municipal grow-op program, the first of its kind, violates the Charter. However, Surrey’s program continued with “minor tweaks,” according to fire chief Len Garis.

often felt inferior and had low self-esteem. “She looked at me as a mentor, more than anything,” he said. Domaradzki also referred to a meeting that was arranged between Careen and a former female student. Several text messages were referenced in court that were exchanged between the two before they met in a Fort Langley pub on Jan. 28, 2009. “Martin, honey, the place is called 1827 … I don’t look fabulous, so
“I called all the students different names at different times,” he said. In another text that Careen confirmed he sent to that same student, he commented on how much she had matured. “You are a sophisticated lady and beautiful. I don’t think you really know how beautiful you’ve become,” the message stated. Careen said he sent her the text and told her similar things in person because the girl

The woman, who had kept in touch with Careen and his wife after she graduated, wanted to discuss a personal issue she was having with someone else, he said. Careen is charged with invitation to sexual touching. The trial continues Feb. 4 in New Westminster Supreme Court.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK
Transit costs
Would you use transit more often if bus schedules were more frequent and expanded?
Truly the biggest problem is usage. Why would I, the taxpayer, want to support something that I don’t use? We pay tax already for services that are pointless to me and most of the people I know and deal with. The end user should pick up the tab for the whole cost, not just part. So, if a bus ticket now is two dollars but the actual cost is 80 dollars, my suggestion is charge the people using it and see how you all get on without property owners’ subsidy. 5440
To answer, go to abbynews.com
LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:
Home invasions: Do you feel safe in your residence?
So, the answer is simple then. Start using the bus and get your money’s worth. Adam Roper I am pretty sure that if Abbotsford council and other Fraser Valley communities fought for a light rail connection to Surrey, then local transit use would increase significantly as users utilize buses to access the train stations. Maybe then the transit system would come closer to paying for itself. KHabkirk

Winter driving advice for the unadvisable Andrew
Holota
On Point OK, repeat after me… Winter. Snow. Prepare. Which one of these words does not belong? In the Lower Mainland, you could almost suggest all three. Judging by the mayhem that results every time a bit of frozen water falls from the sky in this corner of the world, there are a whole lot of people who are in deep denial about winter, and snow, and preparation for both. They must like being in denial, year after year, because there can’t be that many newbies here who haven’t a clue how to deal with a spot of real winter. To whit: A cold snap hits, and there’s a major run on space heaters, salt, winter boots, windshield washer antifreeze, scrapers and anything else that similarly might be good to have when the thermometer goes below zero.
Ditto with snow. Ask any tire shop owner when it gets crazy-busy. Of course, when the snow is coming down thick and heavy. After all, why buy snow tires until you really need them ... like to get to the tire store…? Wild thought, I know. Mind you, some credit has to be given to those folks. They actually get proper tires, albeit last minute – as opposed to the legions of motorists who slip and spin and bumper-car their way through every snowfall, placing faith in the gas pedal, and all the while crabbing about how the city can’t plow the roads fast enough. For those individuals, I offer the following winter driving guide, which will be blissfully disregarded. 1. The city does not have a snowplow waiting on the corner of every street, ready to attack the first flake that falls. You are on your own. For awhile, anyway. That’s why equipping your car with snow tires, and a shovel, and maybe a tow rope would be a dandy plan. You might even throw in a heavy coat, a hat, boots and gloves, so that when you have to dig out your hopelessly buried, bald-tired ride, or per-
haps just walk away from it entirely in the middle of some hill, you won’t freeze your keister off. 2. If you approach a stop sign or intersection at the same speed in snowy conditions as you do on a dry, summer day, expect to carry on right
There are a whole lot of people in deep denial about winter in this corner of the world. through said stop sign and/or intersection until your car meets an immovable object, such as another car, or ditch, pole, etc., or your vehicle eventually dissipates its kinetic energy. While you are involved in this unanticipated travel plan, you can jam the brake pedal down as hard as you can, and administer a death-grip to the steering wheel, and neither will change the forces of nature at work on your car.
3. SUV owners: See above. Because you have a fancy $50,000 all-wheeldrive does not mean your vehicle is suddenly free of the fundamental physics of velocity and friction. Of the former, you have too much. Of the latter, not enough. With all tires locked and sliding, you now have a fancy no-wheel-drive. Good luck, and clear sailing. 4. Another physics lesson. A tire rotating at 1,000 rpm has no more grip than a tire rotating at 100 rpm. In fact, it has less. Far less if the tire in question has summer tread, or virtually no tread at all. Look out your side window as your motor screams and tires howl. Note that you are barely moving, or not at all. This illustrates my point. 5. If your instinct tells you to ignore all the above, please do the following. Dress warmly. Shovel a path from the front door to the driveway. Face away from your vehicle, toward the largest expanse of fresh, deep snow available. Now throw your car keys away, as far as you can. You will find them when the snow melts. You can then resume driving. Thank you.

Mindless, dirty people
With all the violence, misery, poverty, and disasters in the world, it is hard not to be depressed at times. I was feeling a little that way, so I decided to take a nice walk in the park with the dog. I went to Fishtrap Creek Park. The walk started well, but then I came across a 45-gallon garbage bin that had been dumped out, and thrown into the water. I continued walking, feeling disgusted. Shortly after, I came across several bags of garbage that had been thrown from a lookout onto the ice. They cannot be retreived as the ice is unsafe. Needless to say, my walk was not very uplifting. The attitude of these dirty people is beyond my comprehension. The chances of these mindless people reading this letter is almost nil, as they probably have never read a newspaper or book in their lives.
It would be nice if they knew what I, and I am sure most
A9
of Abbotsford think of them. They are mindless,
filthy, dirty, disgusting people. Brian Gerty

Abbotsford News I Saturday, January 15, 2011
Charges laid, then stayed
'".*-: -"8 40-65*0/4
Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News
Abbotsford Police say they are perplexed about how four suspects in a home invasion and abduction on Jan. 7 were charged and then had their charges stayed a day or two later. Const. Ian MacDonald said he didn’t realize the suspects had been formally charged until their names showed up on the Abbotsford provincial court list on Monday, Jan. 10. Crown counsel makes the decision on whether to lay charges, based on evidence presented to them by police. However, MacDonald said police were still gathering evidence to support the case. He sent a press release to media outlets on Monday, saying three suspects had been released because there was not enough concrete evidence to charge them. A spokesperson from the Crown counsel office was not available for comment before press deadline. The four suspects were each charged with two counts of forcible confinement and two counts of using a firearm. Those charges have all been stayed, and Crown counsel has up to a year to reinstate them. Police initially identified three suspects who were located in a vehicle along Highway 1 near 200 Street. He did not say what role the fourth suspect played.The suspects who were charged are Jimi Sandhu, 21, Balwinder Narang, 20, Rajan Sharma, 19, and Daniel Bajaj, 19. Two 19-year-old men were abducted last Friday from a path on Homestead Crescent and were forced to drive to a home in the 500 block of McCallum Road. The 44-year-old mother of one of the men was then taken from the home. The three captives were then abandoned on Hwy. 1 near Clearbrook Road.

ICBC has unveiled a list of 140 intersections where it’s activating new digital cameras to bust red light runners. The insurance corporation says the $20-million expansion of its existing program means there’s a better of catching violators, who then get $167 tickets in the mail. Under the old system, 30 film cameras were rotated through about 120 locations. Placing digital cameras in all 140 new locations mean there’s a nearly five-fold increase in intersections that can be electronically patrolled at any given time. Most of the sites are in Metro Vancouver, with 46 in Vancouver, 29 in Surrey, 11 in Burnaby, 10 in the Tri-Cities, eight in Richmond, four in both Langley and North Delta and three each in Maple Ridge and Abbotsford. The biggest increase is in Surrey, where more than twice as many cameras are to be deployed as before, and Vancouver, which gets an an extra 21 patrolled intersections. See ICBC’s map of sites for
File photo
There will be more red light cameras in Lower Mainland intersections. the complete list of intersections and accompanying crash statistics at http://www. icbc.com/road-safety/saferdrivers/intersection-safety ICBC denies it’s out to ring up tickets for a cash grab, however, and says it will be
selective in when and how many cameras are activated at a time. About 35 of 140 sites are now activated and the rest are to be added over the balance of the year. All the sites are considered high-risk intersections, many of them notorious for T-bone type crashes. Tickets are only issued to drivers who enter the intersection on a solid red light. ICBC predicts there will be a six-per-cent reduction in serious injury and fatal crashes at intersections as a result of the cameras, and reduced claims costs will pay for them. About 33,000 tickets a year are now expected to go up, an increase of 10,000. The ticket fine revenue will go to local municipalities, not to ICBC. The digital system means tickets will go out in days, rather than the current four to six weeks. The Integrated Safety Camera Unit issues 20,000 tickets a year to red light runners. Roughly 40 per cent of serious crashes happen at intersections.

3 Things to Remember... if you’re the proud new owner of electronic exercise equipment, a new TV or other home entertainment components, updated appliances, or anything else that requires power to operate. Here are some things you can do to protect your investment and ensure you get the longest possible life out of your new electrical components. 1) Make sure the electrical circuit that powers your new acquisition is able to handle the extra load. According to the Canadian Electrical Code, a 15 amp circuit should not carry more than 12 amps of load to operate safely. An overloaded circuit creates a dangerous situation both in the service panel and at all the connection points along the affected circuit. A faulty circuit breaker is a ¿re hazard. A continuously tripping breaker, aside from being annoying and inconvenient, will eventually wear out. Don’t ignore it. Call us to get the problem identi¿ed and corrected. 2) Never compromise on the equipment manufacturer’s electrical requirements. Some equipment and appliances need a lot of power and require a dedicated circuit to avoid a dangerous overload situation. A dedicated circuit, with the correctly sized wire for the circuit length and load, will also protect the equipment by giving it the full power that it needs.
JOHN VAN PUTTEN
Abbotsford News
An abandoned car rests in the centre median west of Whatcom Road overpass on Wednesday morning, following a big snowfall overnight that made driving conditions treacherous. Freeway patrol RCMP waited to tow cars out unless they were blocking the road.
3) Surge protection is a must have. Power bars or surge strips are a good idea but have a limited use and should only be used as a secondary line of defense. The average home experiences approximately 20—30 daily internal energy spikes created by appliances cycling on and off. These surges will prematurely wear out the circuit boards in your new electronic equipment. Electrical surges are believed to be the main cause of 40% of all computer hard drive failures. A whole home surge protector, professionally installed directly on the main electrical panel, will protect the entire home from the damaging effects of power surges. Call us for professional installation of our high quality surge protector.

New TransLink chair
Simon F raser University economist Nancy Olewiler is the new chair of the TransLink board. She took over Jan. 1, replacing former board chair Dale Parker, who stepped down this fall after serving three years. T ransLink’s appointed board of directors elected Olewiler chair. She had recently been reappointed to a second three-year term on the board. “You can expect TransLink to continue its focus on efficiency and effectiveness to maximize the benefits we deliver with our existing transportation system,” Olewiler said in a statement. TransLink will aim to give local mayors and the province the best possible infor mation and advice on developing a progressive transportation plan for the region and determining how to fund it, she said. Olewiler credited Parker for his leadership and meeting or exceeding service and budget targets. The appointed
board, created after the province swept away local politi-
cians who served on the old board, has operational control
of TransLink and meets behind closed doors.

temperatures soaring above 10 degrees in January for 13 days. “Vancouver has never seen a warmer stretch of winter weather than the 31-day period ending on Feb. 9, with records dating back 114 years.” Vancouver was already the warmest bid city in Winter Olympic history. The outlook seemed good in November and December of 2009, when plenty of snow fell on local mountains, but that gave way to Pineapple Express storms in a January that felt more like April. A few days into the Games, a high pressure system took hold, bringing clear skies and mild dry weather for a solid week. “In spite of the horrendous weather leading up to the opening ceremonies and
continuing through the first three days of the Winter Games, the event was a renowned success,” Environment Canada concludes. “When the weather changed, so did the mood, culminating in an emotional uniting of the entire nation.” The list also includes Hurricane Igor’s pounding of Newfoundland (No. 2) and the costliest hailstorm in the country’s history (No. 10).

David Hancock watches as a gull nabs a juicy glop of food from the Vancouver Landfill and tries to flap away with it. Ten eagles dive on the gull, which drops the morsel nearly on his windshield. A great flurry of wings swarm Hancock’s car in the ensuing food fight – one that’s being replicated all over the landfill. “They’re all here because there’s 50,000 gulls eating garbage,” the wildlife biologist explains. “As soon as a gull grabs a piece of garbage that’s too big to swallow immediately, there’s five eagles hassling him.” Hancock, who runs eagle webcams on his website hancockwildlife.org, says the spectacular scene is not a happy one.

instead ranging further inland because the chum came back poorly and this is not a year with any significant number of pink salmon returning. As a result, nearly 7,500 eagles flocked last month to the Chehalis River near Harrison Hot Springs, where more coho salmon had been spawning. And Hancock estimated nearly 1,000 eagles were near the Vancouver Landfill in Delta from Boundary Bay to Burns Bog Monday. The largest number he’s ever seen before in that area was 860. And never in his life, he said, has he seen as many birds within a couple of square kilometres as the record numbers at the Chehalis. “It’s really a statement on the devastation of our fishery stocks on the coast of British Columbia and Alaska,” he said. “We’ve got this huge early influx of eagles looking for dinner.” While an astonishing 30 million-plus sockeye salmon returned to the Fraser River this sum-
mer – a phenomenon some scientists theorize is a one-time jump due to an Alaskan volcano’s ash fertilizing the ocean – later running salmon species are critical to eagles. “It does not bode well for our coastal future,” Hancock said. “We’re not treating the oceans very well.” Eagles, despite their majestic appearance, are predominantly scavengers, he said. And it’s not uncommon to see them perusing dumps, which Hancock says aren’t that different from a stream filled with spawning salmon. In both cases, he said, eagles take advantage of the fact “there’s a lot of extra protein about to go to waste or be recycled.” Despite the large numbers of eagles being seen in the zone from Delta to Chilliwack, tens of thousands more should be on the coast right now. Hancock suspects the eagles that normally load up on B.C. and Alaskan salmon have ranged as far as the Mississippi River in pursuit of introduced fish stocks there.

Crossing musical boundaries JOHN MORROW
The Abbotsford News
Christian rapper Toby Mac brings his Winter Wonder Slam show back to the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre on Jan. 27.
Toby Mac glad to be back at AESC, wants non-Christians to feel welcome Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News
Make no mistake about it, by the basic definition of the term, Toby Mac is a Christian musician. He is, after all, both a Christian and a musician. He lives and works in Nashville which, in addition to its status as the capital of country music, happens to be the hub of the contemporary Christian scene. His lyrics have a message that’s consistent with his faith. But in a conversation with The News, the 46-year-old rapper/singer/ songwriter/producer made it clear he aspires for his music to have an
impact beyond the boundaries of Christendom. “When I’m asked to go to a city and I play a church, it’s not always what I feel like I’m supposed to be doing,” he said. “I feel like I’m supposed to be in an arena in a town where anyone can come. Where it’s not intimidating to someone who doesn’t believe the way I do. I want them to feel invited.” In that sense, the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre is an ideal venue for Toby Mac. When his Winter Wonder Slam tour rolls into town for a Jan. 27 show, it will mark his second local appearance in just over a year. Mac also played the AESC on Dec. 11, 2009.
“It was an overwhelming success of a night, with the people’s reaction to the music,” Mac said. “It just seems to be a growing concert market, and I think whenever I feel that kind of feedback from the people when I’m onstage, I don’t want to let it sit too long, honestly. “The people seem to be hungry for what we’re doing – something entertaining, but at the same time sort of a little bit of soul satisfaction in the music.” Since the last time he was here, Mac has released a new album, entitled Tonight. He performed the lead single, City on Our Knees, at his last AESC show, but this time around,
he’ll be showcasing an additional six or seven new songs onstage. “I sort of have a tendency not to subtract, but just to add,” he said. “We have some songs that are so great live that people would probably go nuts on me if we didn’t do them. “I love creating medleys of old songs, just kind of smashing three of them together.” At this stage of his career, Toby Mac is an icon among Christian artists. He burst onto the scene with DC Talk, a hip hop/rock trio that lit up the charts with albums like Free at Last, Jesus Freak and SupernaContinued on A24

tural in the 1990s. All told, DC Talk won four Grammys and racked up more than eight million units sold before disbanding in 2000, as Mac and bandmates Michael Tait and Kevin Max pursued solo careers. Mac’s four solo albums have topped two million in sales. Quizzed about how the Christian music scene has changed since the salad days of DC Talk, Mac says the wall between Christian and mainstream music is gradually coming down. “I think we began to get confidence as an industry that we can make music that gets the world’s attention,” he said, alluding to the crossover success of bands like Switchfoot in recent years. “I think many times with the moniker ‘Christian music’ in the sub-categorized industry, people might turn a deaf ear to it,” he continued. “But if it’s just out there as music and it’s dear to you because of what it’s saying,
you can choose it amongst all the other things just the same way you choose a film before you walk in the theatre. Maybe it’s good for your life or right for you, versus something that will sort of tear down who you want to be. “I would love to say the same things that we have always said in our music, but for it to be available to everyone and anyone.” On Wonderin’, one of the tracks on his new album, Mac reminisces about his DC Talk days. As to the prospect of a reunion tour at some point, he didn’t rule it out. “I think, you know, it’s probably going to happen sooner or later,” he said. “Once in a while, we’ll all get on the phone and talk about when it should be, what it could look like. I can say nobody’s ever shut the door on it. “Right now, I think we’re really just enjoying the mountain we’re climbing, each of us individually. It’s never been a completely closed door. We’ve always sort of laughed about it, smiled about it. It’s timing, I guess.”

Last Saturday’s game against the Adirondack Phantoms, when Irving got the hook early in the second period after surrendering two goals on nine shots, was a case in point. “I think that Irv hasn’t been as sharp as he needs to be to be a No. 1 goaltender,” Playfair told The News earlier this week, speaking of Irving’s recent play. “I want to make sure that we don’t slip back and have a situation where we need to challenge our goaltenders each and every night to be the No. 1 guy. I fully expect Irv to step up and be the No. 1 guy.” Irving fully expects the same of himself. “Any goalie, they take pride in coming back strong in a game that they’ve been pulled,” he said. “Not that you change anything – you just

ICE CHIPS: Q Two of the Heat’s rookie centres are going in opposite directions, health-wise. Gaelan Patterson, recovering from a concussion, appears poised to return to the lineup after practising this week. Mitch Wahl sat out last Saturday’s game and hasn’t practiced since after sustaining a neck injury on Friday vs. Adirondack. His timeline for return is uncertain at this point. Q Playfair said that John Negrin (knee surgery) is still two to three weeks away from returning. Kris Chucko, who played just two games this season before suffering a concussion, is back riding the bike at the AESC this week, which Playfair called an “encouraging” sign. Carter Bancks, also out with a concussion, is beginning to ramp up his bike riding, but is still not skating at this point. Q The Heat host the Toronto Marlies in a two-game set at the AESC this weekend – 7 p.m. on Friday, and 11 a.m. on Sunday.

The Claremont Spartans turned in a pair of impressive results en route to gold at the Mennonite Educational Institute senior girls basketball tourney last weekend. The No. 5-ranked Victoria squad blew out No. 10 Maple Ridge in the semifinals, and posted a 20-point win over No. 4 South Kamloops in the title
game. Shalie Dheensaw, the Spartans’ 6’4” centre, earned tournament MVP honours. The host Eagles dropped all three of their games, falling to Maple Ridge, Penticton and Stelly’s of Victoria. MEI’s closest call was against Penticton. The Eagles trailed by four points with less than a

minute remaining, but rallied to tie the score on a three-pointer by Olivia Loewen and a free throw by Harvina Kaler. But Penticton came back down the floor and got a putback layup just before the buzzer to steal a 55-53 victory. While their weekend opponents were all AAA squads, the MEI senior girls have moved down to the AA ranks this season. They’re thriving at that level, posting a 4-0 record in league play. Q The MEI junior girls won the B.C.
Christian Schools Championship on the weekend in North Vancouver. The Eagles defeated Unity Christian (6538), Pacific Christian (36-35) and four-time defending champ Abbotsford Christian (39-38 in overtime) en route to the final, where they knocked off Kamloops Christian 55-45. Tessa Retzlaff and Grace Tadrous led the Eagles’ offence throughout the tourney, while Ashleen Bajwa was the defensive catalyst.

GEBBINA LOENEN (nee Buikema) Gebbina passed into glory on Wednesday, January 12, 2011 at the age of 73, with several family members at her side. She was predeceased by her daughter, Joyce in 1978 and brother Bill in 2007. She is survived: by her loving family, husband Ed, children Roger, Nora, Mark, daughterin-law Shawna Van Hove, grandchildren Courtney and Camille. Her siblings Grace Gytenbeek, Anita de Water, Aafke Colyn, Cor Buikema and John Buikema and her large extended family. Ed and Gebbina had a dream that their handicapped, eldest daughter, Joyce, would be cared for in a Christian setting. In 1971, Ed and Gebbina, together with 12 other Christians, established “Bethesda” - the Christian Association for People with Disabilities. Gebbina worked quietly behind the scenes, and often gave wise advice. Soon, ‘Saturday Relief’ and ‘Sunday School’ were developed as well as several Summer programs. With those developments, Gebbina was more able to focus her energies on the rest of her family. She loved being a homemaker, playing table games with her children and was happiest being in service to others. In later years, she continued working with disabled people in Special Education classes and with the ‘Friendship Ministry”. In all, Gebbina gave 40 years of service for People with Disabilities until she became ill. A Memorial Service will be held January 17, 2011 @ 2 p.m. at Trinity Christian Reformed Church, 3215 Trethewey Street, Abbotsford, B.C. A graveside service will be held for immediate family. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to: Bethesda ChristianAssociation (www.bethesdabc.com or 105, 2975 Gladwin Rd, Abbotsford, BC V2T 5T4) and Christine Morrison Hospice (www.missionhospice.bc.ca or 7311 James Street - Suite E, Mission, BC V2V 3V5)

Adam was born on December 30, 1986 in Campbell River, B.C. - son of Maggie Reimer (nee Comerford) originally from Victoria, B.C. and Don Reimer of Abbotsford, B.C. Brother to Ryan Dear (Margo) and Erin Reimer. Adam had attended Cultus Lake Elementary, Vedder Middle, graduating from Sardis Senior Secondary in 2005. After a long & courageous battle with Niemann-Pick Disease, surrounded by his family, his best friend Ian Fournier and fiancé Felicia, his other “big brother” Steve Hiscoe, Adam passed away in the early hours of January 11, 2011. Adam played hockey in the Chilliwack Minor Hockey league and hockey was his life. Everyone who knew Adam realized that they had to bone up on the Canucks before they went to see him. Adam loved to dance - and had a wicked sense of humour. His smile would light up the room. Thank you to his caregivers from the Chilliwack Society for Community Living and We Care who, through their care, extended his life. Thank you to the nurses and doctors in Emergency and ICU at Chilliwack General. Special thanks to the many Paramedics who rushed him to hospital so many times. Thank you to Dr. Ian Morrison and Dr. Mark MacKenzie for the tough job we gave them, which they shouldered with compassion. Prayers will be held on Friday, January 14th 2011 at 8:00 p.m. at St. Mary’s Roman Catholic Church. Services will be held on Saturday, January 15th 2011 at 1:00 p.m. at St. Mary’s Roman Catholic Church, 8909 Mary Street, Chilliwack. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Canadian Chapter of the National Niemann Pick Disease Foundation can be made in his memory.
