Dangerous driving search finds cache of stolen goods

Burning questions for council candidates Jennifer Feinberg The Progress Most of questions fired out at would-be councillors at the all-candidates’ meeting were on topics ripped from Chilliwack headlines. All 17 council candidates were on stage Monday night, as they vied to make an impression on the large crowd of more than 400 people who showed up at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre. Topics ranged from recognition by Chilliwack of unceded territories, where the Aevitas waste recycling plant should be sited, and whether the risks
of the Kinder Morgan pipeline expansion were worth it. Here are some of the questions and responses. On Kinder Morgan pipeline expansion the question some were asked was: “In case of a spill municipalities will likely be first responders and possibly saddled with a portion of the cleanup costs, where do you stand on the pipeline expansion and do you think the risks are worth it? Incumbent Chuck Stam cast doubt that municipalities “will be saddled with the cost,” of a spill. Kinder Morgan would be getting a “hefty bill” if that were the case.
“We’ve outlined our concerns,” he said about Chilliwack’s issues, as covered by the FVRD as an intervenor in the NEB hearings. Candidate Dick Harrington said he has concerns about the expansion, and possible leaks. “I don’t think the risks are worth it,” Harrington stated. Candidate Patti MacAhonic answered similarly “not worth it,” adding that events in Burnaby raise even more ques-

tions. Candidate Gerr y Goosen later tackled the same question in round three, on the environmental risk the pipeline expansion poses, and reminded ever yone the country was “built co on risk” and “We should be taking sh risks to keep movri ing forward.” in On the growing truck traffic in at Lickman, all four candidates expressed the need for improvements to infrastructure to relieve the pressure.

An investigation into a bizarre chase down Evans Road early Halloween morning has uncovered a cache of stolen goods, and led to multiple charges against two individuals. Chilliwack RCMP were following up on a complaint of dangerous driving when they located a stolen vehicle. That complaint had stemmed from an incident that began in the early hours of Oct. 31. An RCMP member had seen a vehicle pulling a trailer southbound on the Eagle Landing Parkway, drifting across the center line as it went. The officer turned his car around and followed the truck, which veered into oncoming traffic. It then went through the Evans Road roundabout in the wrong direction. The officer turned on the patrol vehicle’s lights and sirens in an attempt to get the truck to pull over. The driver ignored him. The truck sped up on Evans Road, still driving the oncoming lane and forcing another 10 vehicles off the road. Another five were forced to the side on South Sumas Road, at which point the officer decided it was too dangerous to continue. “A suspect has been identified,” RCMP Const. Ashley St. Germaine said at the time. Three days later police searched a property in the 4700 block of Columbia Valley Highway near Cultus Lake. What police found included vehicles, travel trailers, quads, motorcycle, and a transport trailer, along with other property. Police are still trying to determine the rightful owners. Two individuals have been charged: Blake Dunstall, 30, of Chilliwack has been charged with multiple counts of possession of stolen property, multiple counts of driving while disqualified and breach of probation. Dunstall was also charged with flight from a peace officer and dangerous driving stemming from the Oct. 31 incident. Melody Lingenfelter, 33, of Chilliwack, has been charged with multiple counts of possession of stolen property and identity theft.

“The congestion has become almost unbearable,” said incumbent Ken Popove. “We need to partner with the province, and fast track the Prest Roundabout project.” Candidate Richard Williams’ repeated in each of his responses the lack of information available online at the city website. It would help to know where a project falls in the priority list, “so we know why it should be fast-tracked,” he said. On the Aevitas recycling facility by the river, candidate Chris Kloot said he thought the biggest problem was that the public was “not aware” of what was being proposed in this location. “I would want to look at this very carefully,” he said. Incumbent Stewart McLean noted that even though the matter is before the courts, the province still has yet to speak to it, and underlined that Aevitas would sign a covenant on how the community would be protected. “We did not go into this with our eyes closed,” he said about the unanimous council decision in favour. “We did our due diligence.” Incumbent Sue Attrill encouraged critics to go to the city website for details that could clear up some of the “misinformation” circulating. Candidate Phillip Maxwell said he agreed the opinion that the Aevitas facility was “in the wrong place,” and challenged everyone to come up with “a good place it could go.” “Don’t just leave it to city council to make this decision. Everyone needs to be involved.” On the value of Chilliwack Economic Partners Corporation to Chilliwack, all three who were asked indicated support for CEPCO’s contributions. Candidate Sam Waddington said CEPCO made Chilliwack the “envy” of other Lower
Mainland communities because it “enables the city to do things they wouldn’t otherwise be able to” achieve. Incumbent Jason Lum said the city needed to do a better job of communicating the economic value CEPCO brings. The public ended up have a fair bit of sway on which questions were asked. “Of the 13 questions that were asked, nine of them were actually submitted from the floor that night,” commented
Kyle Williams, executive director of the DT Chilliwack BIA. Some topics from the floor included: • Lickman truck traffic • Agriculture • CEPCO • Flood protection • Taxation Topics prior to the event: • Crime rates • Revitalizing downtown • Aevitas hazardous waste recycling plant jfeinberg@theprogress.com

Bringing them in from the cold Jennifer Feinberg
“
The Progress When the temperature dips below freezing in Chilliwack, it’s tough to be out on the streets. That’s the motivation behind a local effort to get help from the province from reps at Salvation Army, Ruth and Naomi’s Mission and Cyrus Centre Chilliwack. It’s the first time they have joined forces to put in a BC Housing funding bid for what’s known as “extreme weather” shelter beds, so they can bring street people in from the cold. “The application is going in soon as possible,” said Tim Bohr, director of community ministries for Chilliwack Salvation Army. It’s been years since Chilliwack has received funding specifically for extreme weather shelters. They’re scrambling now since the mercur y dipped. “We’ll be
All of this is to make sure no one is forced to sleep in sub-zero temperatures. It’s because we genuinely care ~ Tim Bohr
”
petitioning for an exception to be made because of the demonstrated need for this,” Bohr noted. The trio of local groups serve a similar client demographic, those who are homeless or at risk of being homeless, so it made sense to join forces. “We’re blessed to have multiple agencies working in concert on this,” said Bohr, which included City of Chilliwack reps. The last Homeless Count in Chilliwack showed there were 77 people on the streets,
which did not include the hi people who were staying in emergency shelters. There are emergency beds available, but they fill up quickly when the weather turns. There are up to 16 beds at the Salvation Army’s Care and Share Centre, and another 18 beds at Ruth and Naomi’s Mission, and four at Cyrus Centre. But winter and extreme weather is another thing. “All of this is to make sure no one is forced to sleep in sub-zero temperatures. It’s because we genuinely care,”
said Bohr. “The need is growing,” said Bill Raddatz, executive director at Ruth and Naomi’s. “And the need for extreme weather beds funding is also clear.” A year ago they’d have seven or eight taking shelter for the night at the downtown mission on Margaret. This year it has been more like 14 people per night, said Raddatz, which doesn’t include the extra beds needed when the weather gets nasty. So this week they squeezed 21 people on cots, who needed a bed when winter showed up in November. “It’s happening earlier than usual this year,” said Raddatz. “I think this cold caught us all off guard since we just put the application in last week.” They hope the extreme weather funding is okayed. “It’s cold out,” said Bohr. “We are hopeful it doesn’t get to point where we have to turn people away.”
Metro moves to open extreme weather shelters More overnight spaces for homeless Jeff Nagel Black Press Several Metro Vancouver cities have opened up extreme weather shelters for the homeless this week in response to the arrival of freezing overnight temperatures. Rebecca Bell, coordinator of the Greater Vancouver Shelter Society, said shelters
providing extra overnight spaces were opened this week in Vancouver, Richmond, Bur naby, New Westminster, Surrey, Langley and Maple Ridge. “It’s earlier than normal,” she said, but added cold weather spaces were opened in the first week of November last year. More than 600 addi-
tional spaces can be deployed across the region to meet extra demand during cold weather when local cities issue extreme weather alerts. Extreme weather sites are often set up in churches or community centres using temporary mats and provide spaces over and above those available in regular homeless shelters. As of Wednesday night, the extra spaces being offered across the region included
110 out of a maximum 135 in Surrey, 27 out of a maximum of 57 in Burnaby, 25 out of 45 on the North Shore, and all 30 spaces available in both Langley and New Westminster, 22 in Richmond, 20 in the Tri Cities and 15 in Maple Ridge. Bell said openings change according to anticipated need and can vary across the region because of differences in local weather. “The temperature varies across the Lower
Mainland quite substantially,” she said. Bell noted Port Coquitlam also has the Tri Cities Bridge Shelter, a cold wet weather shelter that’s run seasonally from October through March. A total of 9,260 stays were recorded at Metro extreme weather shelters last winter. For more information or a list of shelters across the region see http://gvss.ca.

R AESIDE
One of the more talked about issues in the municipal election campaign is something the candidates – if elected – can do little about. The Aevitas hazardous waste recycling and transfer facility has been unanimously approved. So candidates who say they will either block or reverse council’s earlier decision have some important questions to answer. First, they need to explain whose backyard they will move the facility to if they attempt to get Aevitas to voluntarily relocate. There is a paucity of heavy industrial land in Chilliwack, especially land as remote as the Cattermole properties. Options, therefore, are limited. Second, if Aevitas chooses not to relocate, are they prepared to embroil Chilliwack taxpayers in a lengthy and likely futile effort to force the company to move. How much are they prepared to pay, and where will that money come from? Higher taxes? Fewer services? But still, there is a broader issue. It’s easy to mouth opposition to Aevitas site. It is more difficult to articulate a vision for a property that has been zoned heavy industrial for decades. If candidates say they have the authority to pick and choose what businesses they would allow on private property that already has the appropriate zoning in place, they are mistaken. And, more importantly, they are setting city taxpayers up for lengthy and expensive legal fights. If they say they can tailor the rezoning process to match their personal attitudes about the businesses seeking that rezoning, they again are risking taxpayer dollars. And if they plan to arbitrarily downzone the property to prevent the kind of industry they find so distasteful, they have an obligation to tell taxpayers what it will cost them. To be clear, the property Aevitas wants to build on is privately owned. And, like the 100 acres around it, the land has been zoned heavy industrial for years. Changing that reality will take more than a campaign slogan or blustery rhetoric. ~ Greg Knill, Chilliwack Progress

Breaking the code of silence on sexual assault
The Jian Ghomeshi scandal has blown open a nation-wide debate on sexual assault and the appalling number of women who suffer in silence, tormented with self-blame, shame and fear. In October, Jian Ghomeshi, past host of the highly popular CBC radio show Q, was fired. Based on graphic evidence viewed by CBC executives, it was alleged he had caused physical harm to a woman and that his conduct was a fundamental breach of the corporation’s standard of conduct. Since the explosive news of his firing broke, the entire issue of non-consensual sex and what constitutes sexual assault has got everyone talking. In the weeks since Ghomeshi was let go, nine women have said they experienced sexual non-consensual violence or intimidation by Ghomeshi and two – actress Lucy DeCoutere and
lawyer Reva Seth – have publicly come forward with information. The police have begun a criminal investigation but he has not been charged with any crime. According to Statistics Canada, in 2009 472,000 women selfrepor ted being sexually assaulted and 945,000 selfMargaret reported physical assault. The most EVANS likely victims are teenagers and young women between the ages 15 and 24. One in four women will be sexually assaulted at some point in her lifetime. Women of sexual assault invariably suffer in silence. There is a stigma that cloaks this whole malevolent experience. In decades past, I can remember
an entrenched attitude that, if a woman was assaulted, the automatic question was “What did she do to deserve it?” Answer: Nothing. But once abused, women endure many debilitating emotions. They are fearful for their safety. They suffer from guilt, shame, depression, and low self-esteem. They trust no one and often live in fear of losing their jobs should the encounter become public. Some fear retribution from family or scorn from friends with accusations of behaviour they were not guilty of. And then there is the fear that they may have contracted a sexually-transmitted disease. It’s no surprise, then, that less than 10 per cent of sex assaults are reported to the police and of those, a pathetic mere one or two per cent actually go forward to a conviction.

The frequent belief among victims is that the incident is not that important, it’s a personal matter, they won’t be believed, or that their entire private sex life will be put on public display. Less than 50 per cent seek help from a family member but two-thirds (62 per cent) may seek help from a trusted friend or neighbour. Needless to say, sexual assaults are far less likely to be reported than other forms of physical abuse. According to Canada’s Criminal Code, sexual assault spans the range from penetrative rape to any form of unwanted sexual contact. That invasion of highly personal, physical space can do complex emotional scarring leading to many debilitating emotions. And sexual assault doesn’t stop at women. According to the Canadian Women’s Foundation,
men (49 per cent) and women (51 per cent) in Canada are equally at risk of violence. One in ten men is sexually assaulted and 60 per cent of males in secondary schools are sexually harassed. But men may be more likely to be assaulted by a stranger while women are likely to be assaulted by someone they know. Men, though, can have a more difficult time identifying that what happened to them was actually a sexual assault and know how to act on it, especially in a culture that denies this happens to men in the first place. Maybe the Ghomeshi scandal has a silver lining in that it will help to finally break the code of silence and provide a pathway forward for sexually abused women. The sooner the better.

Act of kindness touches many Today is remembrance day. My parents parked their car at Sears. They have veterans’ plates. There was a lovely card on their windshield. It read how grateful a community member was for their sacrifice for our freedom. Inside the card was a gift card for Tim Horton’s, “a
truly Canadian thank you.” While my parents received this card and gift with gratitude, what this person does not know is how this gesture means so much to our family. My parent’s son has served for 26 years, and continues; their son-in-law for 21 years.
As a veteran’s wife, daughter and sister, I thank you for your direct kindness and thanks. We all make a difference in life, but today, your gift reached far beyond the parking lot. It went across our world. Thank you! God bless. Susan Harrison
Check the due date before you vote Do politicians have a best before date? Some do. Some don’t. One only needs to look at our federal government and reflect on Brian Mulroney and Jean Chretien to see what can happen to an organization when a politician stays too long. What about local government?
When an incumbent trustee seldom enters into debate, makes less than five substantive motions during a three year term, abstains on critical issues and about 80 per cent of the time only seconds motions made by one other trustee, there appears to be a disconnect. On November 15th
Chilliwack voters hopefully will mark their ballots for incumbents based on their contribution to policy development, leadership in the boardroom and stated positions on educational issues rather than attending teas, name recognition or community/church affiliation. Further, there are
outstanding candidates other than incumbents running for school board this year. For these challengers, the non-incumbents, please do your homework. Their names may not be as familiar but at least three of them deserve to get elected. It really is time for change. Doug McKay
Referendum urged to keep DST Is the issue of Daylight Saving Time a Provincial or Federal matter? Since Saskatchewan made a wise Provincial decision to maintain Daylight Saving Time throughout the year, I am guessing it is a Provincial matter. I, like many others including Dr. Art Hister, believe Daylight Saving Time should be kept year round. No more “spring forward and fall back” one-hour time changes!
Advantages include: 1. Improved child health as children can play outside longer in the lighter evenings. 2. Less time/employment disruption to many businesses operating 24/7. 3. Improved health and safety of the general public and consequently improved economics as, for example, ICBC notes spikes in vehicle accident rates in the few weeks following each time change.
4. Numerous other safety and economic reasons to maintain Daylight Saving Time year round. 5. If a provincial decision could be made to maintain Daylight Saving Time, such as the decision to increase the speed limits on some provincial highways, that would be great. Alternatively asap, could the choice be decided by a provincial referendum? Roger Pannett
CSO concert earns applause On Nov. 8 I was lucky enough to attend the Chilliwack Symphony Orchestra’s “Piano Extravaganza.” The Number 1 talent is Paula de Wit: she is formidable; I participated in her Chorus for some time until I could not do it anymore. She never ceased to amaze me.
Paula likes to give children a chance... 16 of the piano performers were Fraser Valley youngsters between five(!) and about 17 and they were all fantastic! What a delight to see and hear them perform! And some of the instrumentalists in the orchestra were obviously still ver y
young. What a wonderful opportunity for these kids to play with a real orchestra. And for me, born in The Netherlands 83 years ago, coming to Canada in 1959, it was an added pleasure to see a number of Dutch names in the list of participants. The featured performer: Ian Parker,
played my favourite Mozart Piano Concerto. I had a most enjoyable evening. December 13: The Nutcracker with the Fraser Valley Academy of Dance; mark your calendar: come out and bring the family. Hanny Kensington, Chilliwack

Immigrant Making a Services Difference in the Lives of Newcomers
November 17 k e -22 e Multiculturalism W November 17 - 22 is Multiculturalism Week. Every year, communities across British Columbia celebrate and share the cultures and traditions of our diverse population. We have lots to celebrate! We live in a province of more than four million people where almost 30 per cent of British Columbians immigrated to BC from somewhere else and another five per cent of the population is aboriginal. Multiculturalism is a reality in the province and in the City of Chilliwack. It is a (left to right): Wenhua Ma, ESL Instructor reality that is celebrated Bev Willms, HongYan Zhao on a daily basis at our Immigrant Services offices. Here newcomers are welcomed. They get the help they need to settle quickly and easily. Staff and volunteers deliver English classes as well as orientation sessions about the community, Canadian culture and navigating our systems. They provide short courses on citizenship, computer literacy and more. An employment counselor helps with job search, networking and preparation for work. The efforts of the newly formed Chilliwack Newcomer Connections are a positive addition to Immigrant Services. Aware of the changing face of Chilliwack, this group of nonprofit, business, education, civic, faith and public organizations aims to coordinate services to support the successful settlement and integration of immigrants in our community. They want newcomers to become success stories in whatever personal, business, or professional path they choose. Wenhua Ma, an immigrant from China, has begun a new life in Canada. He arrived just over 10 months ago. “When I started attending English classes at Chilliwack Community Services,” he says, “everything started changing for me. I learn not only language skills and Canadian culture, but also life skills and information about Canada.” Keen to explore the community and expand his knowledge of the area, Wenhua has participated in field trips and orientation sessions. He is well on his way to settling comfortably in Chilliwack. By providing a variety of services and supports, Chilliwack Community Services is making positive change in the lives of immigrants! Be a part of Multiculturalism Week! Come and meet newcomers and hear their stories.

Karen Wheatley, president of Orphaned Wildlife Rehabilitation Society (OWL), watches as a juvenile male bald eagle is released at Sandpiper Golf Course on Wednesday. The bird was found in Surrey and brought to OWL at the end of July when he was about four months old. He was emaciated and too weak to fly. After about 3-1/2 months of being rehabilitated, he was released. The event kicked off the 19th annual Fraser Valley Bald Eagle Festival which runs this weekend in Harrison Mills.

Watch, ICBC, the City of Chilliwack By-Law Enforcement and the Fraser Valley Integrated Road Safety Unit just wrapped up the campaign. It was held a little later than normal this year because of the school strike. However, organizers are still calling it a success. The two week project had members of the organizations involved dedicate their time to enforcement in the local school zones. The goal was to draw attention to the presence of children in these areas, as well as reduced speed limits during school days. Chilliwack RCMP Traffic Services, along with Speed Watch Volunteers and Safer City,
attended various schools throughout the city for deployments both before and after school. Patrols were concentrated in the school zone areas during the day. During the two week project, which wrapped up on October 30, 2014, a total of 275 violation tickets were issued, 121 of those were being for Speeding in a School Zone. Additionally, many local businesses partnered with Safer City to display ‘Back to School’ messages on their storefront. The RCMP would like to thank all those involved in this campaign and remind everyone to slow down in the school zones and watch out for children.
Chilliwack RCMP call for ‘Pizza Night’ The Chilliwack RCMP have partnered with Chilliwack Community Services and local business, Jim’s Pizzeria, to hold a Christmas Pancake Breakfast for 10 deserving families. On Dec. 14 RCMP members will volunteer their time to host, cook, and serve 10 local families with a Christmas Pancake Breakfast. The members need your support. In order to raise funds for this event, a partnership has been made with locally owned Jim’s Pizzeria, on Nov. 24, a portion of all pizza sales will go to support this special event to purchase food and children’s gifts. “We are asking the community to make Nov. 24, Pizza Night!” said Const. Ashley St. Germaine. “The proceeds go to a very worthwhile cause and will make this Christmas a special one for 10 families.” Pizzas can be ordered by contacting Jim’s Pizzeria at: Chilliwack location – 604-793-9333, Sardis location: 604-858-8611, or at www.jimschilliwack.com.

Want to devote a whole weekend to nothing but writing, writing, and writing (…and learning from and with other writers)? Come to the second annual Writer’s Weekend, presented by UFV Continuing Education. Treat yourself to a weekend away from your usual obligations in the quiet artistic community of Hope, BC. Enjoy an all-inclusive package: accommodation at Kawkawa Lake, meals, and non-stop writing opportunities with a variety of workshops to choose from as well as writing contests with prizes throughout the weekend. Learn to finally see that novel of yours through to completion from writers who have been there. Whether you are at the outline stage or on your 10th draft, get a customized plan put together for you to reach your goal. Come and spend the weekend with writers who will inspire you and light your writing fire again. The weekend is slated to run Nov 21-23. Workshops include: • Breaking into magazine writing • Character development • Novel writing for the time crunched • The emotional work of writing and beating writer’s block • Blogging and other marketing how to’s • Publishing options and strategies. You’ll have the opportunity to complete a novel outline and have a writing schedule by the end of the weekend. You’ll learn how to promote your writing and how to land paid writing work. You will have the opportunity to work on your writing and receive feedback and help during the writing sessions and workshops within the weekend. “Last year’s weekend included outdoor wood fire grilled pizza, early morning and late night guided writing sessions with snacks, comfortable accommodations and beautiful surroundings to walk, kayak, and get inspired in,” said organizer Michelle Vandepol. She and Alison Kilgannon will lead the weekend.

Highway Thru Hell returns Kerrie-Ann Schoenit Black Press The new season of Highway Thru Hell will highlight the challenges of running operations in two provinces. Last season, Hope’s Jamie Davis Heavy Rescue lost a significant amount of business in B.C. when a new competitor scooped up half the recoveries, forcing Jamie Davis to seek new opportunities to off-set the restrictions. Taking a gamble, he moved into Alberta to tackle Highways 881 and 63, setting up a second operation out of Lac La Biche while maintaining headquarters in Hope. “This season is going to be exciting because of the two locations. The fact that all us guys are split up in different places has changed the whole template,” said Davis, pointing out that the company has tripled in size in the last year and a half and there are now more than 40 trucks in the fleet. “Business is booming in Alberta in comparison to what we’re doing in Hope. With the competition and the economy in British Columbia being so hard, the status quo now is we utilize more of our older, paid for trucks in Hope because it just doesn’t justify new equipment.” Alberta’s Highway 881 runs north 300 kilometres through remote forest, muskeg, and tundra between Lac La Biche and Fort McMurray. On a route supplying more energy to the U.S. than Saudi Arabia, hundreds of millions of dollars of heavy equipment must be moved daily on this narrow, two-lane highway into newly-discovered oil and gas fields. Almost 60,000 shift workers are in camps serviced by Highway 881, and on shiftchange day, thousands of workers need to get home. Davis sent his best drivers and trucks to the Alberta oil patch and tasked Adam Gazzola to manage the new Alberta startup. His crew includes

Jamie Davis and his Hope crew are back for another season of Highway Thru Hell.
Colin McLean, a city driver fresh from Vancouver who has to earn Gazzola’s respect. Deep snow, bitter cold, and big recoveries that dwarf most loads in B.C. push Gazzola’s team to the limit. Back in B.C., Davis faces more challenges this season. During the heaviest snowfall and worst avalanche conditions in decades,
he’s left with a skeleton crew of new hires and old trucks in his battle to keep the Coquihalla Highway open. New drivers include Howie Irwin, a highly-skilled heavy recover y vet who used to work the Coquihalla for Davis and his brother before buying his own truck and moving to the city; and Don Starr, a 20-year mountain vet-
eran with MacGyverlike ingenuity. “This season you can really see the differences between the types of weather. Hope has heavy, wet snow conditions versus dry, blowing snow and colder temperatures in Alberta,” said Davis. “The brutal conditions there are hard on people. The cold weather Continued: RESCUE/ p22

Vedder Salute Pausing to remember at All Sappers Memorial Park
Crowds braved a bitter wind to honour Canada’s fallen at All Sappers Memorial Park at Vedder Crossing on Tuesday – one of three Remembrance Day services held in Chilliwack Nov. 11. Despite the cold, people arrived early for the annual event. Well before 10 a.m., the park at the corner of Keith Wilson and Vedder Road was already full. A strong turnout was expected for this year’s service following the death of two soldiers in separate attacks last month in Ottawa and Quebec. Security was visibly tighter, with armed police scanning the crowd for any potential problems. However, the only trouble came from a temperamental sound system that chose to shut down halfway through the service. The glitch didn’t stop the audience from showing its appreciation for the men and women taking part – a group that included past and serving members of Canada’s armed forces, along with RCMP, border service, cadets and emergency service personnel. 10-14F JM24

Jennifer Feinberg The Progress It’s show time Friday night for the folksy indie artist Jon Bryant. He’s been on the road for ages and is heading to Chilliwack for a show Nov. 14 at the Acoustic Emporium. The Progress asked the Halifax native if he’s been working more intensely lately on recording new music or performing his heart out. “Recording and writing aren’t keeping me too busy right now,” Bryant replied. “It’s mostly touring to be honest. By December 23 I’ll have played 65 shows.” It’s been a very busy fall. “The PEAK Performance Project has also been huge part of my life the last few months. However, when the tours are all done, I’m going into the studio this December and January to record a new album.” Does he come from a musical family? “My dad was and still is a
gospel singer so as long as I can remember I have been surrounded by music. “My parents put me into piano lessons when I was 5 and I started teaching myself drums and guitar shortly after.” He has been teaching himself banjo and gigging with a bluegrass group. What artists is he into? “Right now, I’ve been listening to Allison Krauss, Gillian welch, James Taylor, Jeff Buckley and Paul Simon,” he says. “They get me through the worst of times.”
One of the hallmarks of his songs is their ability to be interpreted in multiple ways, according to his bio. Bryant takes this dichotomy even deeper on the dreamy and languid song, Evening Sun, off his album What Takes You, by drawing a parallel between the importance and rapture of finding someone to love in this life, with the notion of setting your eyes upon the Lord. Bryant’s decision to refrain from having these songs be about one specific thing was a conscious decision on his part. “I like the way music can draw one specific reaction from one person and another very distinct reaction from another,” he says. “I feel if I give away too much information about these songs, they will somehow lose their power and ability to do that.” Jon Bryant, Friday, Nov. 14, at the Acoustic Emporium 45892 Wellington Ave. 7:30 p.m. (doors at 7 p.m.). Tickets $10 www. acousticemporium.com.

healthy looking. Once all the winterizing is done, you may wish to spice up your rose garden, after the weather warms up a bit, by planting winter violas and pansies around them. Let’s face it, as beautiful as they are in spring, thorny branches in winter don’t exactly create an inspiring winter display. You might also want to plant early, midseason and late daffodils among your roses. In April and May, the bronzy new growth on your roses will provide a spectacular background for the brilliant yellow of the daffodils. This is a classic combination and one which will last up to six weeks. When the daffodil leaves are finished and looking poorly, the growing foliage of the roses will hide those spent leaves. If you are planting or moving roses now, use well-drained soil with plenty of compost material and bonemeal. Make certain the bud union is just below ground level, and if you cover this union with a 12 inch layer of mulch, there will be little danger of losing them in cold weather. Winterizing now will not only protect your roses but will also keep them healthy and clean for a new beginning next spring.

by wrapping them with a couple layers of the new N-Sulate cloth for an added 10°C of protection. The easiest way to winterize tree roses is to wrap a wire frame around them or use 3-4 stakes with netting, and fill the area above the top graft with bark mulch or straw (keep the straw dry with a plastic covering for the best insulation). Even though your roses look dormant for the winter, their roots are still developing. To protect the bud union, cover their base well with a 12 inch layer of bark mulch, good garden compost or even soil. This protective covering will ensure the survival of your roses even during our coldest weather. I fully understand how inconvenient it is to go out and spray at this time of year, but you will solve many of your insect and disease problems if you apply a combination spray of mostly organic dormant oil and lime sulphur. The first and most important spraying should be done in mid-November, followed by another application at the end of December and at the end of January. This is an organic spraying, and it will leave the stems of your roses clean, shiny and

insects and disease. It might also be a good idea to use a little pruning paint wherever you make a cut to prevent borers from getting inside. I would also pick off all the leaves, especially the disease infected ones and rake up Brian any old MINTER decomposed material around the base of the plants. Climbing roses need to be pruned quite differently. Choose four or five of the youngest and best canes, and prune them back anywhere from four to six feet. Tie the canes to a trellis or arbour to prevent winter winds from thrashing them about. Cut out everything else, and mulch the bud union generously. Roses in containers can be easily protected

It is amazing that many rose bushes are still producing buds and blossoms. If you can pick the odd rosebud for indoor enjoyment, it is like capturing a bit of summer. Any time after November 10th, however, we should be prepared for a cold spell, such as we’re having now. Winterizing roses is important, not only from an appearance standpoint, but also for their survival should we have severe cold outflow winds. Floribundas, hybrid teas and grandifloras are all treated in much the same manner at this time of year. Using a sharp, clean pair of hand shears, cut all the stems back to approximately 2½ to 3 feet in height. Make all your cuts on an angle to prevent water from seeping into the stems. Next, take out any obvious dead wood, which often is an ideal overwinter hideout for both

Off road registration starts Monday A new registration system for off-road vehicles gets under way Monday, as well as increases to safe access for highway crossings for recreational off road vehicles. To provide plenty of notice and allow for a smooth transition, the new registration system is currently voluntary for operation on Crown land, but will become mandatory on June 1, 2015. The combined cost of the number plate and registration fee is $48. Effective Nov. 17, off-road vehicle owners can obtain a one-time registration for off-road vehicles that is integrated within the preexisting structure of the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia’s (ICBC) motor vehicle registr y. This will reduce implementation costs and allows off road vehicle owners to register at any of the
900-plus ICBC insurance brokers in the province. These changes, made possible by the passage of the Off-Road Vehicle Act on March 24, 2014, support the Province’s Off Road Vehicle Management Framework. The framework will help British Columbians get out and enjoy the beauty of the province’s backcountry and ensure offroad vehicles, including snowmobiles, are driven in a safe and environmentally responsible manner. “The Quad Riders ATV Association of BC
fully supports the implementation of Bill 13 - the Off-Road Vehicle Act,” said Jeff Mohr, president, Quad Riders ATV Association. “As the November 17 date is set to start the registration and licensing process, we can now increase our focus on connecting the trail networks and increasing the opportunities for responsible riders to get out and enjoy the sport we love.” In addition, changes to the Motor Vehicle Act regulations, effective Nov. 17 will allow off-road vehicle operators greater access to
highways, including the ability to: • Cross a highway without having to obtain an operation permit if the crossing is controlled by a stop sign or traffic light. • Cross a highway where local police authorize through an operation permit. • Load or unload in a parking lot without an operation permit. • Obtain an operation permit with an extended term of up to two years. To date, the Off-Road Vehicle Management Framework has been implemented in stages. Future regulations will follow that will flesh out ORV rules of operation, safety standards, penalties and conditions of use for a wide range of modern ORVs, including snowmobiles, all-terrain vehicles or “quads”, dirt bikes and side-by-sides (e.g., Rhinos and Argos).

Mastering ‘non-judgemental mindfulness’
www. CHILLIWACK chilliwackford .com 30309 5-09F CF1
person driving a car near me changed lanes, honked, and sped up. Perhaps the driver was frustrated at having to drive the speed limit, or maybe a wasp flew Marie into AMOS the car and the driver was panicking. A non-judgmental response is not the same as having no opinion – it’s just holding off on interpreting a situation until our first wave of emotion passes. Of course, if someone lunges at you with a knife, please don’t practice a non-judgmental stance. This would be a good time to allow emotion to inspire you to run away!
One opportunity to use both mindfulness and a non-judgmental stance together is during an emotionally challenging encounter. Think of someone you have argued with. Mindfulness may be focusing on the sound of the other person’s voice. As feelings and reactions rise up, just notice them and then allow them to pass by. Instead of thinking, “How dare that person!” take a deep breath and try to notice what is happening without assigning any judgment to the situation. For example, when your partner says, “You forgot to take out the garbage,” you can understand the statement/implied request but resist from thinking, “You’re an annoying jerk for complaining and insinuating I don’t pull my
weight around here.” It takes practice, but the subtext we give other people’s words – and the assumptions we make about what they mean – contribute a lot to an argument. We don’t always respond in the best manner when we feel hurt, angry or upset, so the skill of non-judgment can be an effective way to keep a conflict from escalating. At first, it seems unnatural and robotic to keep a nonjudgmental stance during an emotional conflict, but it becomes easier and more natural with practice. Start small, and try combining mindfulness with a non-judgmental stance during a situation today.

Dialectical Behavioural Therapy makes use of a variety of skills. Mindfulness is a skill that has been practiced for centuries by many religions and cultures. It has experienced a recent resurgence lately, which is an understandable reaction to our hectic and over-stimulated senses. Mindfulness is using the mind as a microscope, and narrowing thoughts and conscious awareness to just one thing that is happening instead of the many things we usually attend to. Mindfulness can be paired with another calming tool called taking a “non-judgmental stance.” This is a good choice when faced with a situation that could make a person feel overwhelmed with emotion. Try to imagine that a situation is happening on a video, and notice what is happening. Our emotions get involved when we assign meaning or a label to an action. For example, if someone cuts in front of me in a car, honks the horn, and speeds up, I could judge that as a sign that the other person is angry and feel scared/angry/ defensive in response. In reality, the fact of the situation is that a

drive. It needs to be treated with respect but getting on the power or the brakes is very smooth and effortless. The sound from the screaming engine, the Pirelli P-Zero tires squealing under acceleration or diving into each corner was a sensory overload. After dozens of laps around the track with a top speed of 230km/h down the straight, this car is nothing short of amazing. Everything else just feels slow. Verdict The average buyer will still opt for the ($32,495) V6equipped cars sold with a solid 300 hp going to the rear wheels or all wheels, the V8-equipped cars are not offered with AWD any longer. The most amazing, but unspectacular part of the trip was driving the Hellcat back to Washington, D.C. through heavy traffic on the highway and downtown core. As we pulled up the W Hotel, just a block from the Whitehouse, the 707 hp Hellcat returned 9.9L/100km. Nothing short of amazing considering the cars output, but it might come down to the 411 lb.-ft. the engine puts out at just 1,200 rpm, allowing it to loaf along effortlessly. This and the $64,495 price tag will get a lot of car fans sitting up and paying attention; the world’s fastest four-door family car is an amazing engineering marvel and the price is as jaw-dropping as the car itself.

Motoring Maui: The Bliss and the Bad By Alexandra Straub
Escape rental vehicle, I can’t help but chuckle to myself. I guess some things stay the same no matter what kind of paradise you’re driving in. But it’s not all bad, right? If you’re not stuck in traffic on Maui’s west island’s main highway – which doesn’t always move at a highwaylike speed – you’re in luck. You’ll have a warm, tropical breeze flowing through the cabin, unless you’re in need of an air conditioning overdose to counteract the humidity. Hawaii Route 30, also known as the Honoapi’ilani Highway, is a 56-kilometre stretch of road that you end up on when traveling to Lahaina or close to it.
daughters. Good thing. The Escape is roomy, though not that roomy. But when a chronic noise came from the brakes, the minivan was out of commission. Luckily for only a few hours, chaos could have ensued. Being the car person, I accompanied her to a local shop. Not only did her car get fixed very quickly, it gave insight into the local racing scene. Yes, there’s one on Maui and it’s probably not what you would have expected. Owner of Kaanapali Car Care, Bill Throckmorton, had his 1981 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 on the hoist. With a small block Chevy inside that produces upwards of 400 horse-
power, this vehicle meant business. Dirty business. From March to October, those looking for some wholesome family fun (and maybe some tailgating, whatever you interpret that to be!) are invited to the dirt track to watch him, along with fellow sprint car racers and demolition derby participants. It takes place at the appropriately named “Paradise Speedway Maui.” Here’s the website in case you’re as curious as I am (http://www. paradisespeedwaymaui.com) Regardless, I thanked him for his invite to the end-of-season event but our schedule was continued on page 37

LAHAINA, MAUI - Locals call it the “Maui Merge.” It’s enough to take a blissfully mellow tourist and perhaps get them as heated as their freshly acquired crimson sunburn. It’s a merge that doesn’t take place within the lines of an ending lane, as one would imagine. Somehow that merge extends onto the shoulder and beyond. Watch out for the cyclist and the stray dog! It’s almost like a game, I’m told, to see how far ahead of all the other cars you can get. As I observe this type of manouevre in action from a Ford
A “family” reunion just happened to be taking place on one of Hawaii’s eight islands, which gave me a perfect excuse to beat the fall blah’s and grey skies that this time of year blesses us with. I use family in bunny ears since my BFF since childhood, Nikki, and I have been sister-like since grade three. Her family is my family. And vice versa. And as families do, they try to figure out logistics and transportation; who will be going in whose car when it came to outings. A total of nine of us were vacationing together. Luckily, my other sister, Minti lives on the island and had her Honda Odyssey to shuttle some adults, and her three

An Acura made in Canada, just for Canada By Bob McHugh
The Acura CSX was made in Canada and only sold in Canada. Essentially it’s a sportier and more luxurious Honda Civic as it shares most major parts, other than engines. So, an owner not only gets the renowned reliability, fuel efficiency and functionality of a Civic, but also a higher level of performance and luxury ... very nice! First released for the 2006 model year, CSX came with a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that can also be found in an Acura RSX, with slightly different tuning. A suspension upgrade also gives CSX better handling than a Civic and it originally came in Touring and Premium (with leather upholstery, Xenon headlights and a power sunroof) trim levels. A new more performance oriented version called the Type-S replaced Premium for the 2007 model year. The standard 2.0-litre engine can produce 155 horsepower, but the 2.0-litre in a Type-S version can churn-out 197 horsepower. The manual transmission in a base CSX is a five-speed, while the Type-S has a six-speed. An automatic model also comes with steering wheel

packed to the brim. Lahaina was a quick commute (sometimes) from the Honua Kai resort where all of us gathered. It was a breath of fresh air. Not only because we got off the resort, but it borders along a picturesque coastline. It’s the kind of coastline that postcards are made of: full of palm trees shimmying to the music of the wind. There you encounter scooters buzzing by, happy couples hand-in-hand and many modes of transportation intermingling. Front Street in Lahaina has a little bit of magic to it, too. In 2011, it was named by the American Planning Association as one of the “Great Streets.” Not every street can be great. They have guidelines. The visit was all too short and then traffic met us on the other end. What happens when you want to escape the drawbacks of paradise driving and you’re stuck in the back seat of a car? Perhaps this is the answer. Envision yourself on a beach, holding a (virgin) piña colada. You’re lying on your towel with your eyes closed, let the crashing waves penetrate your ears. Then picture yourself driving your fastest lap at the Nürburgring. Now that’s paradise. Until the driver behind you honks and you get to crawl forward a metre or so. “You’ll be at the beach soon,” you repeat to yourself.
mounted paddle-shift (manual) controls. Using the newly revised (and more realistic) fuel economy rating method, a CSX (auto) should get 10.9/7.8 L/100 km (city/ highway) and 10.0/7.6 L/100 km (city/highway) with the
manual transmission. Other than leather upholstery, which became standard on every CSX, there were no significant changes for 2008 model year. In 2009, the CSX got a minor facelift up front and 17-inch wheels, fog
lights and USB port for audio players all became standard equipment. The CSX Type-S became the CSX i-Tech (and came with xenon headlights, a navigation system and Bluetooth connectivity) for the 2011 model year, its final year
of production. A used CSX doesn’t cost too much more than a top-line Civic. Not only do you get more content and performance, Acura models also come with a longer warranty than Honda. Full coverage
is for 4 years or 80,000 km, compared to 3 years/60,000 km from Honda. You won’t find ratings for an Acura CSX in Consumer Reports or the results of any US crash testing. However, it’s safe to assume that it would
achieve similar results to the Honda Civic. Used prices may be on the high side, but if you like the Honda Civic, yet desire a little extra pampering and performance, take a look and a drive in used Acura CSX.

Make sure you only operate them off-road. Good quality wiring of a set of off-road lights is important when installing them on your truck, SUV or 4x4. Simply running a power and

ground may work but is not the correct way to wire them. Most off-road lights draw a lot of power when switching them on, and this load should never be applied directly to the switch. Using a relay for the switching duties will save your switch and lights as well as make for a safer installation. Relays are easy to install and some lights come with them, but if not, you can pick up a relay from your local auto parts store. Install a switch in the cab of your truck in a location that is convenient for you to reach, or tap into the high-beam circuit of the headlights to power the relay. Mount the relay inside the cab, under the dash or other location out of the way and out of the elements. Run a wire from the battery or other positive source to the switch. This is the positive feed to switch the relay on. You will also need to run a ground wire to the switch from the frame or other ground then run a positive feed wire from the battery to the positive in position on the relay. There will be four connectors on the relay, a positive, a negative, a positive out and a positive in from the battery. Read the packaging or directions to determine which is which.

tion on the relay and run a wire from it to a good ground on the chassis of the vehicle. Anywhere on the frame or other metal structure of the vehicle will normally produce a decent ground. Run a section of wire from the switch output to the switched power input on the relay. Again, this will be marked or identified on the directions that came with your relay. Run the last wire from the relay positive out position to the lights and connect it to the positive feed on the lights. Ground the lights by attaching the black or ground wire to the frame or other ground on the truck.

Lighting your way off road in winter
Good off-road lighting is a must. HID lights have become more popular with off-roaders these days. Installation is a little more work. But the principles remain the same. Be sure to follow the instructions provided in the kit. HID stands for High intensity discharge which refers to a new technology that relies on an electrical charge to light the xenon gas contained in a sealed bulb. Unlike the halogen bulb, the HID bulb does not have a filament, because there is no filament the bulbs are not susceptible to vehicle vibration damaged. There are however effected by and fluctuations in the vehicles

[License #30764] electrical system and depending on the vehicle they may require some resistors. The HID bulb creates light by bridging an arc between two electrodes, instead of heating a filament. This light is similar to the energy transfer when lightning strikes. The arc stimulates the xenon gases producing bright white beam of light. The next wave of off-road lighting technology is LED. Rigid is a leader in this technology. Low amperage and superior light projecting forward is why most off-road racers are switch to this type of light. Check them out at www.rigidindustries.com.

Dangerous D g rival i l Coquitlam will tighten up defensively and will be a dangerous team in the playoffs , writes Jacob Bestebroer
Chilliwack’s Tipper Higgins squeezes past two Coquitlam Express defenders during a Wednesday night BCHL road game. The Chiefs escaped with a 5-4 overtime win and look ahead to three games in three nights (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) against Island division opponents. DARREN FRANCIS PHOTO
Black saves the day with overtime snipe Kurt Black scored the game-winning goal 3:29 into overtime Wednesday night as his Chilliwack Chiefs took a 5-4 win over the Coquitlam Express. Black’s snipe saved the locals on a night where they blew a four goal lead at the Poirier Sports and Leisure Centre. Chilliwack held a 1-0
lead after one period. Jordan Kawaguchi netted his fifth of the season just 44 seconds into the game, then added a shorthanded tally midway through period two. Jake Hand and Ryan Bowen also scored middleframe markers, also shorthanded, and the Chiefs led 4-0 at the 11:49 mark.
The Coquitlam comeback started less than two minutes later, with Cody Boyd getting the Express on the board. Jackson Cressey’s power play marker at 16:07 got Coquitlam within two heading to the final frame. The Express poured it on in the third period, outshooting Chilliwack 11-3.
Cory Mackin’s power play snipe at 9:23 led to Joey Santucci’s game tying goal at 16:57. On a bad Chilliwack line change, Santucci snuck behind the D, scoring his seventh of the season to send the game to OT. Black’s winner was his sixth goal of the season. See bchl.ca
Pelino the main man after Chiefs deal Datz The Chilliwack Chiefs are down to one reliable stopper after trading Mitchell Datz Wednesday. Following a trade request, Datz was dealt to the Central Canadian Hockey League’s Brockville Braves in exchange for future considerations, leaving Aidan Pelino as the unquestioned No. 1 man in the
Chilliwack net. “There was some stuff, at home, some personal stuff going on that was the main reason for this,” said Chiefs head coach/ general manager Jason Tatarnic. “I think a combination of that, and maybe seeing Pelino becoming the guy more and more, that’s why.” Datz, from Kingston,
ON., appeared in five games, winning four with a save percentage of .904 and goals-against average of 2.95. Pelino, by contrast, had 11 appearances with a .912 SP and 2.77 GAA. He’ll be a lot busier in the near future, at least until Tatarnic finds a new backup. Chilliwack plays in
Powell River Friday, Alberni Valley Saturday and Nanaimo Sunday. “We’ve got a few options and there’s no rush. I need to see what’s out there,” Tatarnic said. “If this was the Royal Bank Cup or Western Canadian Championships, Pelino would have to do it (play three games in three nights).”
The Chilliwack Chiefs escaped Coquitlam with a 5-4 overtime win over the Express in one of the most exciting games of the season Wednesday W ednesday night. Don’t let Coquitlam’s record, which now stands at 8-11-0-3 fool you. They are a good team and an exciting team to watch. They can score goals in bunches and right now they are playing a style where they are really only concerned about scoring more goals than the other team. That’s a refreshing change approach given the soccer style (choke the game into a defensive struggle and eke out a 2-1 win) that so many teams play these days. Coquitlam will tighten up a bit defensively as the season goes on and will be a dangerous team in the playoffs. They are not that unlike last season when they went 27-26-2-3 then won the BCHL championship.. The Chiefs did something I’ve never seen them do before in Wednesday’s game, scoring three shorthanded goals. While they have done that before I’ve never seen them do it on three consecutive opposition power plays. That’s what they did in the second period, giving themselves a 4-0 lead. After the fourth goal I thought, ‘With the way this Express team can score, four goals may not be enough to win.’ I didn’t foresee the Chiefs needing overtime to get the two points but no lead is safe against that team. No BCHL team is better than the Express on faceoffs and they were absolutely dominant in that area Wednesday. W ednesday. They are so confident in their face-off abilities that often instead of doing the
standard dump and chase thing they’ll softly dump the puck in on the opposition goaltender to force a face-off, and run a set play after theyy win it. The Express make three more visits to Prosperaa Centre this season; Nov. 22, Dec. 12 and Feb. 28. I’m setting the over under on total goals in each of those games at 9.5. Last Saturday’s home game, a 7-1 win over the arch rival Langley Rivermen sure has people talking. A great crowd topping 3,000 was the biggest in close to two years and created a great atmosphere. Things got a little heated in the third period and itt had people thinking back to the days of the old coliseum when games like that were the norm. The anti fighting rules that have come into the game since those days prevented it from really getting out of hand. There was onlyy one fight in this game. Under the old rules thatt game would have taken an additional ninety minutes to play. The Chiefs continue to battle the injury bug. Defenseman Mark Esposito, who was getting close to being ready after missing a month with a hand injury, is going to be out for a while longer after aggravating the injury. For ward Brandon Potomak returned last weekend after missing a month with a hand injury but leftt after the first period off Saturday’s game and may be out a while depending on x-ray results which were nott known by Thursday morning. jb@chilliwackchiefs.net

Sardis seniors left in limbo Eric J. Welsh, The Progress One of the best high school basketball teams in BC may not play this year if a coach isn’t found. The Sardis senior boys basketball team that finished fourth in the province just a few months ago has less that three weeks to find a bench boss to replace Kyle Graves. If someone isn’t found by Dec. 1, the Falcons will withdraw from the AAAA Fraser Valley League, leaving several Grade 11 and 12 athletes with no place to play. “I’ve been playing basketball for as long as I can remember, and to get to my senior year and have no coach and possibly no team, it really gets to me,” said Brayden SpeaksChinda. “I get emotional about it.” Graves led the team through the last five seasons, leading Sardis to an eighth place finish at the 2013 provincials and a fourth place finish at the 2014 tournament (the best ever showing for a Chilliwack-based team). Three of those seasons he worked as a teacher-on-call in the Chilliwack School District. Still working as a teacher-on-call this year, coupled with parttime work at Chilliwack middle school, Graves didn’t think he could devote the time and effort needed to sustain the program. “The unfortunate reality is that it will be too difficult, both personally and professionally, to not be at the school every day developing and strengthening the great relationships I have built over the years with each of the returning players and all of the new players,” he wrote in a letter that explained his decision. The players had a feeling it was coming, but when he called the team together one day to deliver the news, it hit like a hammer. “Kyle was like a father figure to some of us,” Speaks-Chinda said. “He understood us, and hearing that GW Graham’s junior varsity football team opens the postseason Friday afternoon at 1 p.m. hosting Nanaimo in a home game at Exhibition Stadium.

he wasn’t coming back just... went deep.” Still the players figured a new coach would be found and the team would carry on. Not as good as it was, perhaps, but they’d still be play-
ing. “We figured someone would step up to do it, but here we are, two months later, and no one’s stepped up to do it yet,” Speaks-Chinda said.
The team has tried to stay sharp through the offseason, gathering in the early mornings to put themselves through drills.

Sardis students just want to play
White Giant win
The players are aware the CSS plan may not even work, due to eligibility rules. That’s why, before going down that road, they are working their own networks trying to find someone, anyone, to coach. “We’ve been going around the last couple weeks asking old coaches, teachers, family members, everybody, to see if they’d be willing to step up,” SpeaksChinda said. “We are a team that’s been to provincials two years in a row, finishing top 10 both years,” Clegg said, delivering his well-practiced sales pitch to a potential bench boss. “What other team would you want to coach? We have the heart, desire and chemistry to do it again. We would be very grateful if someone would give us that opportunity.”
game, a win over the Blue Giants. Isaiah Grant ran in a convert and Tyler Bergen booted a field goal. The White Giant offence moved behind the blocking of Christian Beck, Jake Wood, Dayton Baker and Yapo Conteh. A fifth O-lineman, Jeffery Santschi, was sidelined for the final. Brooklynne Groves-Vula, Dominic Groven, Kole Muth, Joshua Dunn, Lynden Arnush, Mason Welch and Logan Milko formed an impenetrable wall on the defensive line. Defensive backs Jake Sondervang and Pierce Hamstra delivered big hits, with cornerbacks Logan Both and Daylan Laszlo making game-saving stops. Ryder Stoughton was a standout at linebacker/safety.
LIMBO from p/41
“We’ve been working just as hard as we ever have, but without a coach we ask ourselves, ‘What are we working for?’” said Logan Clegg, who would be entering his first year at the senior level. Clegg played for the junior team last year, watching the seniors roll through their magical season. It was inspiring, with the Sardis gymnasium packed to the rafters on game nights — a stark contrast to the pre-Graves days when few people cared about Falcon b-ball. “We had so much school spirit behind us last year,” SpeaksChinda said. “I think we took Kyle for granted, figuring we’d always be here and we’d always have a really great coach,”
Clegg added. “He put five years into building a really great program, and now that he’s gone, it’s really hit us. It’s all in jeopardy.” Sardis athletic director Brad Geary can feel the clock ticking, and is working long hours to find a new coach. But he also feels there’s a distinction to be made between ‘team’ and ‘program.’ Even if the senior boys ‘team’ doesn’t hit the court this year, the ‘program,’ which also includes the junior teams and the senior girls, will carry on. “We have had a lot of people at our school and in our feeder schools, who have worked very hard as volunteers to build a winning program,” Geary said. “That program will definitely continue.” More than one parent has suggested that
the school put basketball behind the Sardis Hockey Academy when it came to hiring priorities. The school did hire a social studies/phys-ed teacher with a junior A and CIS hockey background. “That’s a really difficult question to answer, and I can’t comment on those priorities without getting into stuff we can’t get into,” said Sardis principal Diego Testa. “I can say that all programs are valuable, and the variety of programs that we offer is very important in terms of student engagement.” It’s also been suggested that the troubles finding a coach may stem from lingering resentment over the teachers’ dispute. Teachers who feel under-appreciated and/ or over-worked may not be quick to commit
their off-duty hours. “No one has expressed it overtly, nor have I gotten any hint of that,” Testa said, disputing the notion. “As a matter of fact, I think we have more people than ever involved in extracurricular activities.” For the basketball players left in limbo, time is running short. Some are considering a transfer to Chilliwack secondar y school, willing to play for the Falcons’ biggest rival rather than not play at all. “Basketball is everything to me and I don’t want to not play my senior year,” SpeaksChinda said. “I’ll do whatever it takes to play.” “We’re doing all we can here, and it’s sad to see it getting to this point,” Clegg said. “But what options do we have?”

Clark David (Dave) J.A.
April 23, 1938 - Nov. 4, 2014 Much loved husband, father, grandfather and uncle left us far too soon. He is survived by his soul mate Jan; son Sean (Paula); daughter, Shayne (John); brother, Don (Marney), niece, Kerri (Keith); sister in law, Judes; grandchildren, Brooklyn, and Maddison (the apples of his eye). David loved and was loved by many other family members and friends. Throughout his life and career as an insurance adjuster, David met some amazing people of whom many became lifelong friends. His passion in life was his family. He enjoyed the outdoor, playing bridge and darts and almost always had his nose in a book. Last but not least he was undoubtedly the Toronto Blue Jay’s number one fan. No service at David’s request however he did request one big celebration of life party to be determined at a later date. Goodbye my love, till we meet again...

JANUARY 16, 1918 - NOVEMBER 6, 2014
Frieda (Petko/Paetkau) Fast went to her heavenly home on Thursday, November 6, 2014 at Chilliwack General Hospital. She was 96 years old. The last of six children, Frieda was born on January 16, 1918 in Neu (New) Chortiza in the Baratova region of the Ukraine to Heinrich Paetkau and Helena (nee Klippenstein) Paetkau. Always a precocious child, at the age of 14, she was sent to Odessa on the Black Sea for her teacher training. On November 28, 1939 she married Stefan (Stepan) Minaev, who, as a widower, brought a daughter, Galya (Annie), to their union. They subsequently had 3 children: Larissa (Lora, 1940), Walter (1945) and Magdalene (Maggie, 1949). Frieda and Stefan fled the Ukraine with their 2 girls, Annie & Lora, in October 1943; they were part of The Great Trek in which thousands of Mennonites fled the Ukraine to escape political and religious persecution. The family ended up in Gronau, Germany, in a refugee camp run by the Mennonite Central Committee (MCC). Sponsored through the MCC, they immigrated to Canada in May of 1950. Immediately after their arrival in Canada, they made their way to Carrot River, Saskatchewan and worked to repay the price of their passage. Once that year of enormous hardship was fulfilled, they moved to Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Both Frieda and Stefan were trained as teachers and were fluent in a number of languages, one of which was Russian. In 1953 they found employment in Grand Forks, B.C. as Russian language teachers to the children of the Doukhobors, a religious sect, who had settled there in large numbers. Both Frieda and Stefan became a part of the Grand Forks community and were well-respected. During her Grand Forks years, Frieda attended the Gospel Chapel with her children and became a valued member of that church community. Frieda was widowed in 1973; she remained in Grand Forks, not moving to Sardis, B.C. until her marriage to Henry Fast on August 30, 1975. Henry died in February of 1981. In April 2001 , Frieda moved into her apartment on Knight Road. There she made many friends, was active in the Greendale Mennonite church (now called River of Life Church), was an active member of the Canadian Bible Society as well as serving as a correspondent for the Mennonite paper Der Bote. Because of her skill in the German and Russian languages, her services as a translator were sought after. She was a voracious reader throughout her life. She nurtured that passion in all of her children and was a constant example of the importance of education. Frieda never lost her passion

for learning. But it was her deep faith in God that sustained her through an often turbulent life. Frieda was preceded in death by her parents, her 5 siblings, her two spouses, and her step-daughter, Annie Fournier. Frieda is survived by her daughter Lora (Gordon), son, Walt (Gail), daughter Maggie (Mike); grandchildren Jacqueline Fournier, Trisha Petko, Stephanie Beaulieu, Craig Dorrell, Jan Dorrell, Todd Chenore and Chris Chenore; and, 5 cherished great grandchildren: Haley and Selena Joe, Desiree and Tyson Beaulieu and Charlie Chenore. On Saturday, November 8, 2014, Frieda was laid to rest at Greendale Cemetery. The burial service was officiated by Pastor Steven Martinolich of the River of Life Church. Pall Bearers were Stephanie Beaulieu, Mike & Maggie Chenore, Lora & Craig Dorrell and Walt Petko. Funeral services were provided by Henderson’s Funeral Home in Chilliwack. A Memorial Service will be held on Friday, November 21st at 1 p.m., at the River of Life Church, 42369 South Sumas Road, Chilliwack, B.C. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in honour of Frieda Fast to The MCC at the Memorial Service or checks can be sent to MCC Canada, 134 Plaza Dr., Winnipeg, R3T 5K9 Frieda’s family would like to thank the staff at Chilliwack General Hospital, particularly her Palliative Care Specialist Dr. Bull and his nurse, Kaye for providing the highest standard of professionalism and compassion. The family is indebted to the Home Health Care System in Chilliwack who helped Frieda stay in her home for as long as she did. Special thanks to Betty O’Handley, Frieda’s “angel,” who loved and cared for her like a daughter and our deep gratitude to Pastor Steven Martinolich of the River of Life Church.
