Angered by city’s failure to consult

A drop in the water bucket Critics give mixed reviews to new water act

First Nations want open talks on Aevitas plant

BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

ulti-billion dollar Swiss company Nestlé won’t exactly be crunched by provincial government changes to water pricing coming into effect next year. The new Water Sustainability Act (WSA) puts a price tag on the 265 million litres of water Nestlé takes out of the ground east of Chilliwack, bottles and resells to customers. The water, which the company currently extracts for free, will come at a rate of $2.25 per million litres, which amounts to less than $600 per year. “Never mind that the Nestlé Chairman who was quoted saying that water should not be a human right probably spends that much on dinner some days, the real question is ‘does this rate provide enough revenue to ensure that water is protected for the long term?’” says Chilliwack-based WaterWealth Project’s interim executive director Ian Stephen. “That is a question that remains open.” Overall, WaterWealth responded to the government’s announcement of the WSA with mixed reviews. The WSA rates will only recover the cost of implementing the act including, for the first time, groundwater regulation. Environment Minister Mary Polak

bout two dozen members of the 50-or-so organizations that make up the coalition opposed to a hazardous waste recycling facility planned near the Fraser River in Chilliwack met Friday to strategize their next moves. “For anything that happens along this stretch of the river we need to take a precautionary approach,” BC Rivers Day and World Rivers Day founder Mark Angelo told the group. “We have to be more respectful of the river.” The coalition is opposed to the site of an Aevitas Inc. recycling facility that would deal with, among other things, PCBs and mercury just a couple hundred metres from the Fraser. Sto:lo cultural historian Sonny McHalsie spoke to the group, and discussed the First Nations history of the area surrounded as it is by waterways, including the Fraser River, the Vedder Canal, and the McGillivray Slough. He also talked about cemeteries near the site on the low slopes of both Chilliwack and Sumas mountains. { See AEVITAS, page A3 }

Avian influenza strikes hobby farm in Chilliwack Non-commercial farm operation has 95 table egg-layers euthanized

{ AEVITAS, from page A1 } Fraser River behind him is an important fishing site for the Sto:lo. Lina Azeez of the Watershed Watch Salmon Society talked about how the history of the site and the surrounding area is important, as is the current use of the Fraser River by not only First Nations fishers but recreational anglers as well. She said the goal now was to petition the provincial government to insist upon an environmental assessment of the site, which would include a public consultation period. The City of Chilliwack rezoned the property to allow for the plant on Dec. 3, 2013. Critics of the rezoning process said the city did not use the word “hazardous” in the public hearing advertisement, but the BC Supreme Court ruled in December the process was legal. In January, city council issued the development permit to allow for the construction of the building. The strategy of opponents of the project has shifted, in some part, to the historical significance of the site to First

Grave concerns for river, salmon Nations. And aboriginal opposition is getting stronger and moving higher up the power structure. The Sto:lo Tribal Council (STC) sent a letter to Environment Minister Mary Polak dated Jan. 12 that criticized the City of Chilliwack for not consulting with the Sto:lo before approving the project. Because of that oversight, and because of the landmark Supreme Court of Canada Tsilhqot’in decision, the STC told Polak her office now has an even greater responsibility to consult with First Nations. “It is our view that your office holds a duty to consult prior to the approval of the proposal, as the Waste Project could have adverse impacts on our Aboriginal title and rights,” said the letter signed by Grand Chiefs Doug Kelly and Clarence Pennier. Further to that, Grand Chief Stewart Phillip of the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs issued a strong statement of

opposition to the facility on Friday. “There are very grave concerns about the proposed location for Aevitas’ hazardous waste site facility on the banks of the Fraser River, home to the vast majority of wild salmon runs in B.C.,” the statement dated Feb. 6 said. “Once more, the Sto:lo are standing with their neighbours, recreational fishers and municipalities downstream to refuse to put their territories at risk as a consequence of this proposed project. As Indigenous Peoples, we will not stand idly by as business interests are readily recognized as our Indigenous Title, Rights and Treaty Rights are minimized, completely disregarded or totally violated.” The Ministry of Environment still has to give final approval for the facility. After the coalition opposed to the project met at the Cannor Road site Friday, they gathered at Sto:lo Nation offices to “strategize next steps in the fight to stop this facility from being built.”

ifty-one days after the last reported case of avian influenza was detected in the Fraser Valley, the virus has hit a hobby farm in Chilliwack. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) confirmed a highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza virus was detected on Feb. 2 at a non-commercial operation with 95 table egglayers. This is the first time the H5N1 strain has been detected in the current outbreak, which began Dec. 1 in Chilliwack when 13,000 chickens had to be culled at a Greendale broiler breeder. From there it spread to a number of farms in Abbotsford then on to Langley with the last confirmed commercial case at a commercial farm on Dec. 17 where 11,800 chickens had to be euthanized. The total number of affected birds as of the new year was 245,600. The last case detected before last week’s was on Dec. 19 at another non-commercial operation in Aldergrove with 85 ducks, chickens, geese and turkeys. Since the detection of bird flu at a

Prairie Central Road property there has been chatter in the backyard chicken community in B.C. about terminology the media has used. “A backyard chicken coop in British Columbia’s Fraser Valley has been infected with avian influenza,” is how the CBC reported the Feb. 2 detection. “By using the title ‘backyard coop,’ they are insinuating that it is small and close to Vancouver, not on a farm out near Chilliwack, almost an hour away from Vancouver,” said Catherine Petronella Wood who started a new Facebook group BC Backyard Poultry Growers. Nicholette Devenney administers another Facebook group, “Support for Backyard Chickens in Chilliwack.” “These are not commercial farms . . . nor are they what we would consider to be backyard chickens,” Devenney said on Facebook. “Maybe what we should be advocating are urban hens. The difference is numbers. The purpose of urban hens are to have enough chickens to provide your family with eggs. No more.” Devenney came to city hall’s Agricultural Advisory Committee (AAC) a year ago to push for allowing backyard chickens in the city. Then in June, city council voted, with only

said “the new fee structure will ensure fairness and affordability are cornerstones of our modernized water legislation.” But Stephen said the government is trying to have it both ways, saying on the one hand that British Columbians told them that water is undervalued, yet the new rates “will continue to be among the lowest in the country.” WaterWealth supported the government’s goal of achieving more equitable pricing and, for example, keeping water prices for food production low for such things as irrigation, crop washing and greenhouse use. A Chilliwack farmer with 100 cows, for example, will see an annual licence fee change from $25 to $50, according to the government.

Water licence fees are doubled for many uses from $500 to $1,000, and hydraulic fracturing (fracking) is in a new category with licence fees of $1,000, $5,000 and $10,000. Because groundwater inventories are not always perfectly accounted for, Stephen said the WSA, which comes into effect in 2016, doesn’t go far enough to protect water resources used by industrial companies such as Nestlé. Concerns over Nestlé’s water-use practices are international in scope. Last month activists in California, which is in the middle of a drought, protested the fact that a Nestlé plant in southeast Sacramento draws up to 300 million litres of water a year from an aquifer at standard city water rates, water that it sells earning more than a 1,000 per cent profit.

CGH improves patient stays 10-hour rule for admitting ER patients into hospital still a shortcoming

BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

hile there is room for improvement at Chilliwack G eneral Hospital (CGH), Fraser Health and hospital management say monthly report cards show patient experience is improving. Fraser Health estimates an additional 1,500 MRI scans and more than 650 extra surgeries will be provided across the system by the end of March, increases of four per cent and seven per cent respectively from current volumes. And monthly report cards increase transparency and allow taxpayers to see how well each hospital is doing on a number of measures. One area that consistently falls short at CGH is having emergency patients admitted to hospital within 10 hours. “The 10-hour rule is an area that Chilliwack as well as all the other hospitals are working to improve,” Irwin told the Times. The target for the 10-hour rule is

fdgdfslgh

55 per cent of the time. In January, CGH hit 33.19 per cent, a rate not out of line with other months recently or with other hospitals in Fraser Health. Irwin said it is an important indicator of performance and is tracked across the province. “It is a measure that flags getting the right patient to the right care,” she said. And while there are often complaints in some circles about clogged emergency rooms because of doctor shortages or unnecessary visits, Irwin said often a patient has seen a doctor but the delay comes at the back end getting into an in-patient unit. As for successes, Irwin pointed to targets hit in just about every other category, with particular emphasis on “nursing sensitive adverse events” and the per cent of hip fracture fixations completed within 48

hours (90 per cent). In a Fraser Health press release, Minister Terry Lake said the authority is “committed to a renewed focus, which will see the health authority working to put the patient at the centre of the care.” Asked what that change meant at CGH, Irwin said the renewed focus looks at the full continuum of care. “How can we support people to not get sick in the first place, and if someone does get sick then we are able to care for them through out-patient or a family physician.” Services in the community help improve efficiency in the hospital. As examples, she points to the BreatheWELL at Home service, which helps chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients at home. Irwin pointed also to the good partnership CGH has with the Chilliwack Division of Family Practice.

New water fees a good first step

◗ Publisher

he provincial government’s new Water Sustainability Act (WSA) puts a price tag on that most precious of resources, water. For the first time ever in British Columbia, water that comes from our aquifers will come at a cost to industrial, agricultural and municipal users. It’s about time we as a province assigned value to water, without which we could not live. The move comes after years of pressure to do something about how Nestlé, a multi-billion dollar international corporation, has been, at no cost, sucking millions of litres of water out of the ground near Hope, bottling it and selling it back to us. The WSA recognizes something needs to be done about this, so it assigns the rate of $2.25 per 1,000 cubic metres (one million litres) to users like Nestlé. If the company uses 265 million litres of water in 2016, Nestlé will pay $596.25. Not exactly a blow to the company’s bottom line, and critics say the government did not go far enough. All other users will be paying even less. We do have to agree, however, that it’s at least a positive and long overdue step to acknowledge that groundwater needs to be managed and at least some fees, however meagre, need to be attached to its use. We need to pay closer attention to water use in B.C.

When nurture affects your nature

made a joke on Facebook this week about neck tattoos and criminal records: It’s a chicken or egg dilemma I often ponder at the Chilliwack Courthouse. It wasn’t meant seriously and is a purely anecdotal analysis of the seemingly disproportionate number of neck tattoos on men and women facing criminal charges. (Just because you have a neck tattoo doesn’t mean you are a criminal and just because you are a criminal doesn’t mean you have a neck tattoo. Right?) Then someone privately pointed out to me another, if not causal, correlation with crime is single parenthood and low socio-economic status. Thanks Buzz Killington, suddenly my little joke isn’t funny any more. Even less funny than those root causes of criminality, look at the disproportionate number of young First Nations men (mostly men) on the daily docket in Chilliwack’s provincial and Supreme courtrooms. Just in recent days: Aaron Douglas, Jason Combes, Stephen Paul. And that’s just three of many alleged violent offenders. Many more face minor charges. But if you thought those born to

PAUL J. HENDERSON @peejayaitch economic and social privilege already had an advantage over those born in poverty and in unfortunate family circumstances, turns out the advantage is even greater. Nature versus nurture has been the longstanding debate in sociology and psychology on how we come to be the people we are. Is it your genes that make you turn to drugs and then crime or because your parents neglected you? The answer is that not only is it not as simple as one or the other or even somewhere in between, but that nurture can affect nature. Welcome to the world of epigenetics, which has found that not only can your genes be affected by life experiences but those genes can be affected by the experiences of your parents and your grandparents “According to the new insights of behavioral epigenetics, traumatic experiences in our past, or in our

recent ancestors’ past, leave molecular scars adhering to our DNA,” wrote Dan Hurley in a 2013 Discover Magazine article on the subject. “Jews whose great-grandparents were chased from their Russian shtetls; Chinese whose grandparents lived through the ravages of the Cultural Revolution; young immigrants from Africa whose parents survived massacres; adults of every ethnicity who grew up with alcoholic or abusive parents—all carry with them more than just memories.” So how about First Nations folks in Chilliwack, young Sto:lo people living today, some of whose parents and grandparents not that long ago endured a near cultural genocide at the hand of government-run residential schools? “Like silt deposited on the cogs of a finely tuned machine after the seawater of a tsunami recedes, our experiences, and those of our forebears, are never gone, even if they have been forgotten,” Hurley eloquently writes. All of this, of course, can be positive too. If your mother and her mother had loving, nurturing parents, and were fed a healthy diet, encouraged

and given all the tools to succeed, you might have inherited that resilient DNA. I’m not sure how many people realize that Canadian courts recognize, not behavioural epigenetics, but that aboriginal people have had a raw deal. The criminal code requires judges to take into account “reasonable alternatives to incarcerations” for First Nations. This doesn’t mean aboriginals get off easy, but the so-called Gladue Principle means that just being First Nations is a mitigating factor at sentencing. When it comes to neck tattoos, there is no accounting for taste. As for our parents, their parents, and what choices they made or what they were forced to endure, we have no choice. There is a difference between an excuse and a reason. Residential schools may be in the past, and they may not be an excuse for a young person today turning to a life of crime. But I wonder, looking into the blank eyes of Aaron Douglas or Jason Combes or Stephen Paul, if that tragic part of Canadian history might be part of the reason.

Please remember, brevity is the soul of wit. fees. Increase the cost of energy, ferry rides, school supplies, and food for the needy. Maybe the Salvation Army could share their kettle fund with our schools and hospitals. Sounds good to me so long as I don’t have to pay taxes. I would also hope that our filthy rich continue to pay even fewer taxes than I do because I know one day they will create a few more jobs. This is good for us all because then these workers can pay taxes, right? Sounds good to me. Picture this, a large mural on the school gym wall “Joe’s Towing” tow truck, phone number and all. What about an emergency ward emblazoned with advertising. Hey we would all feel just like we were at a hockey game. That might possibly have a healing effect of some kind. There should be a study. Poverty here in B.C.? No way. That’s just like climate change, it doesn’t exist. Have you ever seen anyone on our streets begging or looking for hand outs? Not here. That only happens in Third World countries. Our kids are well fed and clothed aren’t they? We don’t have to worry about people with mental illness going untreated. They choose to live on the street don’t they? Aren’t food banks and thrift stores a real blessing? How could we ever manage without them? I seem to remember that we did at one time? At least I thought we did. Besides anyone can get a job if they really want one. I hear McDonalds and Wendy’s are hiring. Oh yes, and with that in mind I must share a real life story. I met a single mom recently. True

story. She was cleaning a club house. We got chatting and she told me that she had three part- time jobs cleaning and all were minimum wage. She was working up to 16 hours a day and worried constantly about her teenage daughter. She told me that she could barely pay her bills. No she didn’t smoke or drink either. Next time I see her I’ll suggest that she consider doing some fund raising to help pay her bills. I could also tell her about some really good food banks and thrift stores she could patronize. This is what we all want, isn’t it? Lower taxes and more fund raising. Ken Bramble Chilliwack

Taking a bath on water bill Editor: Wow, Environmental Minister Mary Polak, unveiled new water use legislation. “Under the new rules, large scale users that have been able to use water without limits and without costs will now face annual fees and pay 85 cents for every 1,000 cubic metres of groundwater. The Province is seeking public comment.” Now let’s have a look at this issue. In a place called Hope, water is bottled and will now pay $2,252 per year, for the right to bottle 265,000,000 litres or 1,666,850 barrels. Let’s now compare this to oil in Alberta: one barrel of oil equal to 159 litres. Alberta oil is sold for about $50 per barrel. Now the value would be $83,342,500 per year. Oops, silly me it’s not oil its water, at $1.25 per litre or $198.75 per barrel.

Thus, 1,666,850 barrels equals $331,285,937. Wow, this environmental minister is really a polite Canadian. Silly me. Fred Petersen Chilliwack

Gov’t needs to step back Editor: Is there no road “Our Conservative Government” will not drive on? Is there any government communication that is not partisan? Is there no line the Conservatives will not blur? The latest communication that came with all our T-4 (P) OAS and CPP contained timely information about Service Canada replete with the Canada logo which is fine; however, the communications piece also had the Canada Action Plan logo associated with the Conservative party’s brand. This leaves you with the impression that thanks to the CAP we receive OAS and CPP payments as a result. It is the responsibility of the Canadian Government to inform Canadians with important messages. That communication should be done in a non-partisan way without blurring the line between the Government of Canada and the party in power for the same reason the CPC could not put their logo on the piece.

elected to council and who do not.” In the last council race, Mr. Harrington ran an unsuccessful campaign. Yet he blames the media and supporters of CEPCO for his loss. During the last council race, I had received a recorded message on my answering machine from Mr. Harrington as he was looking for support. I was interested. So I had called and left a message for Mr. Harrington to see what his platform was. I was seriously considering voting for Mr. Harrington. However, there was a problem. I was totally ignored and I never did hear from Mr. Harrington. Apparently, Mr. Harrington is a hypocrite and he should look at himself in the mirror long and hard. I can’t speak for others, but Mr. Harrington lost my vote when he did not have the decency to return my call after he left me a recorded message asking for my support.One more thing Mr. Harrington, I did not support CEPCO. D’Arcy Surrette Chilliwack

In defence of Christianity

Editor: With all due respect to the letters written by Karen Wooten and Laurie James’ letters dated Jan. 29 and Feb. 5 Chilliwack Times respectively. I would like to make it clear that this is not a personal attack on them, but rather a defence of the Christian faith. Karen claims that she is an athiest trying to make her belief clear about life after death. We know that atheists deny the existence of God, in opposition to the Christian belief to put one’s hope and trust in the Lord God of Israel and Christ Jesus whom He sent. If one tries to have a dialogue with an atheist, he/she will tell you “prove to me that there is a God,” where with the Christian most likely will answer. “Prove that there is not.” Karen believes her molecules will become part of a tree, which of course is again in oppo-

sition to that of a Christian who believes that Christ is the Life and the Resurrection. To become a molecule or part of a tree once again to the Christian is not possible as according to the book of Genesis or Holy Scriptures, God created everything according to its own kind or species. Therefore an apple tree cannot become a pear tree, or a human being part of an oak or elm tree. As for Laurie James’s letter where she speaks of “Believe as we do, or we reject you” is something I have never heard or said by any preacher or minister. Christians do believe that the Holy scriptures are the inerrant Word of God. If someone has said that to her/him I am afraid that is not part of the Holy Scriptures. Jesus Christ does speak these Words “If you do not believe I am He, you will die in your sins.” Either one believes He was sent by the Lord God, or rejects Him as the Redeemer of mankind.

Look in the mirror first Editor: I find it interesting when Dick Harrington stated in the Chilliwack Times letter to the editor on (Feb. 5, page A9) that “I was totally ignored.” Mr. Harrington was referring to his stand on CEPCO in which he felt that the media ignored him, and that the “employees and supporters of CEPCO do indeed determine who gets

Editor: In this week’s local paper there’s an advertisement promoting a luncheon sponsored by my MLA John Martin. This luncheon features a guest speaker who will be presenting and teaching effective fundraising techniques to those in attendance. I’m assuming attendees will include fund raisers for public health and public schools because these days our schools and hospitals depend heavily on funds raised through the efforts of volunteers. Million dollar lotteries have been part of funding for hospitals for some time now. They must be working because they just keep on coming. Like all gambling, including the proliferation of casinos, the dream is there. Spend your money, seniors and working class people, in the hope that you may be the one in a million to actually win something. Let’s keep that dream alive. Do your duty and help pay for our social services. Have you noticed the presence of vendors in our hospital lobby. Sure, they aren’t a problem, but to me it just seems a little weird. Does a percentage of their take go to the hospital? I bet it does. What about the parking? Hey, I have an idea, why don’t schools charge for parking? What a great way to augment the pitiful coffers of our public schools. There you go PACs, give that one a try. It would appear to me that corporate sponsorship, charity and fund raising are seen by our government as a good way to fund public services. Just think, taxes would be lowered followed by huge cheers from the voters. Win win. Why should we pay taxes anyway? We can manage without all the things our taxes pay for . . . can’t we? Someone else can pay for them. Who cares if our quality of life suffers so long as we have money in our pockets to buy lottery tickets, buy boxes of chocolate almonds and pay all those user

Chocolates are nice, but love is not enough W BY VERN & SUSAN TOMPKE Vineyard Church

e have never married a couple who were not in love but have met a number of separating couples who never “really loved” their partner. What? If love is that tenuous, perhaps love is not enough to sustain a relationship. OK, Hallmark is now officially NOT returning our calls. I know this article may put us in the camp of being “the Grinch” of Valentine’s Day, but we are asking a serious question: What makes some couples successful while others are not so?

John Gottman runs a research organization called the Love Lab in the Seattle area. He and his researchers have found that they could, with a high degree of accuracy, predict which couples would find success in their relationship and which couples would not. What is even crazier, is that they found they could make this determination within minutes by simply looking for evidence of what they called the “Horsemen of the Apocalypse”—those things which indicate destructive and harmful toxins in the couple’s interaction. Now I am not sure that many of us will be racing to Seattle to have our relationship tested, but I am also

happy to announce that they found good news on the back end of these findings. Each of these “Horsemen” could be hamstrung or hobbled so to speak and new patterns could be developed to counteract, even reverse, their effects on couples in trouble. For me, that gets my attention. Having grown up in a family of divorce, I (Vern) entered my marriage determined to be as “love smart” as possible and not simply assume that things would work out. Thirty years later, my wife and I continually find that we need to learn and develop new skills to continue to grow closer together (not further

apart). For example, I recently heard that studies have conclusively shown that just a 30 minute walk a day result sin a 30 per cent drop in early death. My wife has told me if I die early on her she is gonna kill me! Guess what I now do almost every day. The same applies for our relationship. This Valentine’s day, I would strongly encourage you to give your partner MORE than just chocolates, flowers or lingerie (do that as well and support our local businesses please!). If you are serious, however, about building a successful marriage, let me encourage you build on something a little more substantive. Look for one of the various workshops put

Nothing but overtime BY GREG LAYCHAK glaychak@chilliwacktimes.com

Darren Francis photo

Kurt Black (10) engages in a melee at Vernon’s net during a 4-3 double overtime victory for Chilliwack Sunday at Prospera Centre. The Chiefs have only eight regular season games remaining.

It’s never over until it’s over at a Chiefs game

here is a hockey team that has currently played seven of their last eight games in overtime, including the last six in a row. In total, this team has played 13 extra time games in 50 games, having won an impressive 10 of those. For those of you wondering who this mystery team might be, you need not look further than your backyard for the answer. It is a fun time to be a Chilliwack Chiefs fan, and for that matter a member of the hockey club. Head Coach and General Manager Jason Tatarnic is enjoying the phenomena. “I’ve never been through a stretch with so many overtime games in a row,” he said. “It’s been exciting hockey for everyone involved, and it should benefit us going down the stretch, being involved in tight games.” On why his squad has been so successful in bonus time: “I believe we have a group of players who have the will to win, and you combine that with a good skill set, it’s a nice combination. You have to play with heart and emotion, and for the most part, we’ve done that so far this season.” The extra points that Chilliwack has garnered

Barry Douglas Chiefs Report in these match-ups has propelled the Mainland’s top team to a five-point lead over second place Langley. However, no chicks are being counted before they are hatched, both teams still have eight games remaining on their respective schedules. One of those games is a massive head-to-head match at Prospera Centre, on Feb. 18. Getting back to the overtime theme, for you statistical buffs, AKA Jacob Bestebroer, while the 13 overtime games in 50 games is a lot, it is surprisingly not the most in the BCHL. The Powell River Kings fans have been getting the most bangs for their buck with their team having played a whopping 16 OT games. Nine of those games have been losses, and those nine losses, believe it or not, are not the most overtime losses by a BCHL squad. That unfortunate distinction belongs to the Victoria Grizzlies who have 10 extra time defeats in 13 bonus time games. The Chiefs are back on the ice this Friday in

South Surrey for the first of back-to-back tilts versus the Eagles. The two long time Mainland rivals will also square off on Saturday night at 7 p.m. at Prospera Centre. A pair of victories would go a long ways in trying to clinch first place in the division. Saturday is also Valentines Day and the Chiefs are running a Valentine’s Day contest via social media. You can get all of the details on the “Cupid” contest by visiting chilliwackchiefs.net, the Chiefs facebook page, @chiefs_ hockey on twitter, and on instagram @chwkchiefs. Speaking of hearts, Head Coach Jason Tatarnic and Associate Coach Kyle Adams transplanted themselves from back East and are living in Chilliwack for the first time. So I asked them what they love about our town. Both of them answered quicker than a sockeye salmon bobbing and weaving down the Vedder River. The pair of them beam talking about how much they love Chiefs fans and the people in Chilliwack. But what good is love if it’s unrequited? The coaches and players could really use your love inside Prospera Centre over the final five regular season home games. Just sayin . . . .

t was an all-overtime weekend for the Chilliwack Chiefs who won two out of their three home games, providing an exciting series for fans at Prospera Centre. Kurt Black scored half-way through the second OT period Sunday night deciding the sixth extra-period game in a row for the Chiefs, and solidifying a five-point lead in their division. The weekend didn’t start as well for Chilliwack, as they absorbed a 3-2 loss to the Penticton Vees in double OT on Friday. “We held Penticton to two goals . . . not a lot of teams can do that and we basically were step-in-step with them,” associate coach Kyle Adams said. “Our boys seem to rise to the challenge whenever there is one.”

After a two-goal lead by the Vees midway through the first period, Jordan Kawaguchi got the Chiefs on the scoreboard with a power play goal less than half a minute before first intermission. Neither team was able to score in the second frame and Jake Larson took the match into extra minutes with his tally halfway into the third period. The Vees’ Gabe Bast ended the game 28 seconds into the second OT frame settling unfinished business left by a tie from the teams’ December meeting in Penticton. Penticton has racked up the most points in the BCHL and boasts only eight losses on the year. Chiefs goalie David Jacobson squared off against the league-leading Hunter Miska, and matched him into over 65 minutes of hockey. { See CHIEFS, page A15 }

The addition of the league comes after pressure { CHIEFS, from page A12 } And though it was a loss, the Chiefs left the ice with another point in their division. Regrouping on Saturday, Chilliwack came out early against the West Kelowna Warriors with Kawaguchi again scoring toward the end of the first period and Rory Bell adding to the lead in the second frame. But with a response from the Warriors in each of the last two periods, the Chiefs found themselves once again in overtime. This time Larson came up with the game-winner at 3:32 in the first OT period, notching a Chiefs victory in the two teams’ first contest of the season.

Tough loss against Penticton And Chilliwack didn’t stop there, coming back from a third-frame 3-1 deficit against the Vernon Vipers Sunday night to tie the game at three apiece. Kurt Black found the back of the Vernon net midway through the second OT period to settle the game at 4-3, and the weekend with 16:35 minutes of extra ice time. “The pace of the game was high, it was a lot of back-and-forth,” Adams said. “Vernon likes to play off transition—they’re pretty good at it—so we had to make sure our neutral zone turnovers were few and far between.” The Chiefs have gone into OT in

seven of their last eight games, winning five of those. They now have 10 extra-period wins and three OT losses over the season. Chilliwack will split a two-game series with the last-place Surrey Eagles, travelling to the Nest Friday night and returning to Prospera Saturday for a 7 p.m. matchup. “Surrey’s beat us twice already so we definitely can’t take them lightly,” Adams said. “We’re trying to get to where every team we’re going to play it’s like we’re playing Penticton— that’s our mindset going into every game: you’ve got to give everything you’ve got.”

the big players from getting inside the key, so people like me who are quite tall we don’t always necessarily have the advantage,” says Scott, who is an able-bodied athlete. “Sometimes for us it’s harder for us to push our chairs or get down into the key, so everybody plays equally.” He compares it to stand-up where teams can rely on a few star players. In wheelchair ball, he says, you can’t really just play it by yourself—there’s more of an emphasis on the team. And the sport goes even further with inclusion by joining male and female competitors on the same teams. As the Canada Games employs the International Wheelchair Basketball Federation’s (IWBF) classification system, Scott and other able-bodied players are listed as 4.5. Hagkull’s spina bifida—a birth defect that has left him with two of four quadriceps and minimal leg feeling—means his rating is 2.5. The Grade 10 Chilliwack Secondary student just turned 16 and has been playing the sport for nearly a decade. Hagkull has been attending a wheelchair basketball academy in Toronto for the past two years, playing with junior candidate athletes who are 18 and 19 and growing his game through the experience. “On three or four occasions, Ben has been identified as a targeted athlete and has played with the junior national team,” Benjamin’s father, Brad Hagkull says.

-For those pets that can’t brush their own teeth, you must brush them for them.

What is a dental scaling? It’s exactly the same process that happens to you when you go to the dentist. A technician uses an ultrasonic and hand scaler to gently remove the tartar that has collected below the gum line. February is dental awareness month at Cottonwood Veterinary Clinic. There are some incentives and perks to help make it easier for you to have your pets teeth examined and treated if necessary. Our focus is on education. Hopefully this newsletter helps you understand the difference between clean teeth and disease free teeth.

-Demand that your dog or cat brush their teeth twice a day just like we train our children.

-For those pets that develop gingivitis despite brushing, or using dental products, dental scaling is 100% effective at removing tartar below the gumline and stopping irreversible periodontal disease (yes they will come home with nice white teeth but that’s not the point).

Additional information and application packages will be available at the information night outlined below.

WHEN:

So, what can you do to help with your pet’s oral health?

-When that isn’t feasible , dental diets and dental chews that reduce the plaque and tartar on the crown have been developed. These certainly help.

The academy is sanctioned for operation by the Chilliwack Football Club, the Chilliwack School District and Mt. Slesse Middle School.

Pet’s teeth may look different then our teeth, but they are made the same and are at risk of developing gingivitis and periodontitis just like our own teeth

Second, because it is impossible to remove tartar safely below the gumline in animals without anesthesia. Groomers are allowed to make teeth look pretty but they cannot treat gingivitis and periodontal disease. A dental scaler is a very sharp instrument. Attempting to remove tartar below the gumline on an awake pet is painful and can cause serious damage to the gingiva.

The goal of the academy is to enhance a player’s confidence, individual playing skill, self-esteem and leadership while giving them opportunities in both academics and athletics beyond the regular classroom. The role of the academy is to provide additional training for soccer players, male or female, beginners or advanced, competitive or recreational, who wish to improve on their soccer skills. These opportunities are supplementary to the physical and tactical aspects of skills taught within their regular soccer club team training.

Did you know it is illegal in Canada for a non veterinarian to have a business performing “dentistry” on animals? Why?

WHAT:

CARRIERS Route

The simple answer is to prevent and treat dental disease. It’s the tartar below the gum line (that you cannot see) that is the real problem and only a veterinarian has the skill, expertise, and license to fix it. Veterinarians pull far too many rotten teeth; we work hard to prevent this by scaling them below the gumline.

WE ARE LOOKING FOR

NEWSPAPER

Your pet’s teeth may not be clean, they may just look that way. It may come as a surprise to you but veterinarians don’t care if your dog or cat’s teeth are white and shiny. White teeth are pretty, granted, but aesthetics does not fall within the realm of veterinary medicine. Why does your vet keep bugging you about having your cat’s and dog’s teeth brushed and scaled?

enjamin Kanis’ first seven years have not been easy. He requires therapy for cerebral palsy, a seizure disorder and recurrent respiratory tract infections. That’s a lot for such a young child to endure. Together, he and his twin brother Kyle were born premature at 25 weeks, weighing only one pound seven ounces each. “Benjamin was twin A and because he didn’t have an amniotic fluid around him for a week he was very bruised and had a lot of complications,” the twins’ mother Greta Kanis said. After 10 months of fighting through a long list of medical complications that included a brain hemorrhage early in his life, Benjamin went home. Four years later, the young boy was forced to fight for his life again when he was admitted to Abbotsford hospital with a bad cold—where he stayed for three months. He fought back, returned home and has since made incredible progress. Benjamin’s lungs are stronger and he can now walk with assistance. He is also speaking, something he had difficulty with previously, and this now allows him to communicate his needs better. Though he has come a long way, it’s still difficult for Benjamin to get around. But with a little help from loved ones and a boost last June from charities like Variety, he and his family can cope more easily with his struggles. Young Benjamin can move his wheelchair with one hand, but has had difficulty transferring himself to the car booster seat. B.C. children’s charity organization Variety helped the Kanis family by providing a van conversion to make it easier for Benjamin to enter and exit the vehicle. They now have a safe and easy way to get to and from medical appointments and can get out on family trips more easily. “It is awesome not to have to lift him into the van and lift his wheelchair in the back of the van,” Greta said. Variety also assisted the family with the purchase of a SleepSafe bed which is designed to prevent falls and entrapment while Benjamin is sleeping. The Kanis family is one of many the charity helps, with more than 1,200 kids across 125 cities benefiting from its support every year.

The B.C. chapter of the original Variety club was formed in 1965 and is famous for it’s annual Show of Hearts Telethon. T h i s S a t u rd a y a n d Sunday, the 49th year of

the show will be aired on Global BC, and will include stories of victories like Benjamin’s, and how the charity has helped them with their undeserved struggles in life.

“The Show of Hearts Telethon is our biggest fundraising event of the year,” says Bernice Scholten, executive director of Variety. “We see each child as a champion, capable

of achieving remarkable success. Our show salutes the little victories of kids across the province and we invite viewers to celebrate with us.” When the Kanis family

watches, they will surely celebrate with Benjamin who is living a little easier because of Variety’s help and his young fighting spirit. ◗ The 49th annual Variety

of Hearts Telethon airs Feb. 14 and 15 on Global BC from 6 p.m. Saturday to 5 p.m. Sunday. Viewers will have a chance to win a new Ford Fiesta. Visit variety.bc.ca for more details.

Suffering from Bladder Problems?

s we age, many of us experience a weakening of the bladder and the muscles that control the release of urine. This often leads to an increased urgency to urinate and the inability to control urination. Women suffer more from this than men. Frequent night-time urination... 50% of people 60+ years experience an increase in night-time urination. This increases with age. Incontinence... research shows 48% of women and 17% of men over 70 suffer incontinence.

Overactive bladder... is an urgent need to empty your bladder. This affects one in six adults and leads to a frequent washroom visits, incontinence and stress. Women often suffer from a weakening of the pelvic floor muscles

and the bladder sphincter (controls urine flow).

Men usually experience urinary problems due to prostate problems (eg. swelling of the prostate) that occur aging.

Research shows that pumpkin seed extract strengthens the muscles of the bladder. It can also help to reduce prostate enlargement and relaxes the bladder. Ultimate Bladder helps to alleviate urinary frequency and incontinence and it helps to control an overactive bladder by strengthening the bladder muscles.

Deceased Tax Returns in Canada: What to Do When Someone Has Died

Filing a Deceased Tax Return When someone passes away, that person’s legal representative (executor or estate administrator) has to file a final income tax return. The estate is everything that a person owns when they die, including their property and their debts. The legal representative also advises the CRA, Revenu Québec (if appropriate) and Service Canada of the date of death and sends in the appropriate documents. When are the final tax return and the taxes owed due? If the death occurred between January 1st and October 31st, you have until April 30th of the following year. If it was between November 1st and December 31st, they are due six months after the date of death. Can I deduct funeral expenses, probate fees, or fees to administer the estate? No. These are personal expenses and cannot be deducted. Who reports a death benefit that an employer pays? That depends on who received the death benefit. A death benefit is income of either the estate or the beneficiary who receives it. Up to $10,000 of the total of all death benefits paid (other than CPP or QPP death benefits) is not taxable. If the beneficiary received the death benefit, see line 130 in the General Income Tax and Benefit Guide. If the estate received the death benefit, see the T4013, T3 - Trust guide. On what return do I report Canada Pension Plan (CPP) or Quebec Pension Plan (QPP) death benefits for the estate of the deceased? A CPP or QPP death benefit can be reported either on the tax return of the recipient beneficiary of the deceased person’s estate, or on a T3 Trust Income Tax and Information Return, for the estate of the deceased. If the estate then pays the death benefit to the beneficiary, a T3 slip will be issued in the beneficiary’s name.

The amount of the CPP or QPP death benefit is shown in box 18 of Form T4A(P), Statement of Canada Pension Plan Benefits. Do not report this amount on the return for the deceased person. Unlike a death benefit that an employer may pay to the estate or to a named beneficiary, this benefit is not eligible for the $10,000 death benefit exemption. You have to report all other CPP or QPP benefits on the deceased’s return. For more information see line 114 - CPP or QPP benefits.

Servicing At-Need & Pre-Need

Who reports amounts an employer pays for vacation and unused sick leave? Vacation pay is income of the deceased person and can be reported on a return for rights or things. Payment for unused sick leave is considered a death benefit and is income of the estate or beneficiary who receives it. For more information, see IT508, Death Benefits. The deceased had investments in a tax-free savings account (TFSA). Who reports any income earned in the TFSA? When the holder of a deposit or an annuity contract under a TFSA dies, the holder is considered to have received, immediately before death, an amount equal to the fair market value (FMV) of all the property held in the TFSA at the time of death. As a result, no income should be reported by the deceased on the final return or any optional returns. After the holder’s death, the annuity contract is no longer considered a TFSA and all earnings after the holder’s death are taxable to the beneficiaries in the year they receive this income. For more information, see Guide RC4466, Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA), Guide for Individuals. If the deceased person was paying tax by instalments, do I have to continue making those instalment payments? No. The only instalments we require are those that were due before the date of death but not paid. Why do I have to return the deceased person’s GST/HST credit? Since the payments are an advance on purchases for the current calendar year, you have to return GST/HST credit payments that were paid to the deceased after their death. If the deceased was single and the estate is entitled to the payment, another payment will be issued to the estate. However, the payment that was issued to the deceased person must be returned to us before we reissue the payment to the estate. For more information, see GST/HST credit.

An honourable night of excellence

he Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce celebrated the excellence of our local businesses at the 20th Annual Business Excellence Awards, “Roaring Twenties Gala” held at Tzeachten Hall Jan. 31. It was a packed house with 340 people in attendance. The nomination process for the awards started in September and was judged by a panel of five independent judges. These judges

had the difficult task of choosing the winners, and even though there could only be one winner in each of the 15 categories, every nominee was a winner for being honoured as displaying excellence in their field. The Players Guild, in the finest 1920s attire, ushered everyone to their tables and the live talent of the Chilliwack Symphony Orchestra was enjoyed throughout the

reception and dinner. The reception was enjoyed with a variety of wines to taste from five local wineries, as well as pairings and hors d’oeuvres from local vendors. Before the official part of the evening could start, emcees, President Kirk Dzaman and Past President Kevin Gemmell, were released from their “Chamber responsibilities” by Mayor Sharon Gaetz. This effectively freed them

to do their job, entertaining the attendees all night, joking and vying for the more important role during the event. The live auction was led by none other than Charlie Chaplin, who commented that he only knew “silent” auction. The Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce is very grateful for the overwhelming support in honouring the excellence of our business community.

IPL Q & A Q: I have noticed that my skin is looking dull and I even have some sun spots that have appeared. What can I do? A: Over the years sun damage causes us to have broken capillaries and sun spots which can make us look 10 years older. We have various ways to improve skin texture and tone. We can start by using a combination of physician grade treatment products which include Vitamin A, hydroquinone and sunblock as well as IPL (Intense Pulsed Light). Usually 3 – 5 treatments are necessary. If you are interested in a more aggressive treatment we can combine physician grade products, IPL and Fraxel laser – the combination will enhance each others results. You will need to continue protecting yourself from the sun and use sunblocks, hats and sunglasses to maintain the results.

Think pink for fun & flirty

on’t settle for dark-anddull attire this winter. Take your inspiration from the vibrant hearts and roses of Valentine’s Day to give your wardrobe a much-needed pop of colour—and complement, or even contrast it with a closet of dark and sophisticated garments. “Adding colour makes a statement—and it also makes an outfit far more interesting,” says Janette Ewen, a leading Canadian style expert. “When in doubt, accessorize. I like to do that with jewelry and this year I particularly like Pandora’s Valentine’s Day collection of earrings, bangles, pendants and charms featuring rose-coloured crystals

and Murano glass. Pink is fun, flirty, and most of all feminine.”

socks. A wink of pink will make your feel more feminine.

Ewen points out that there is a shade of pink to flatter every style and budget:

• Accessorize with pretty pink jewelry. “Style a sterling silver bangle with pink crystal-encrusted charms, or warm up your look by mixing in rose gold pieces,” says Ewen. Jewelry styling ideas are posted online at Pandora.net.

• Try sporting a pink purse, belt, pendant or necktie. Just one item can brighten an entire outfit and add a sense of whimsy. • Don’t shy away from bold pinks. A classic sheath dress or a blouse in deep pink is always chic when paired with a sleek nude shoe, or with a tapered black pencil skirt. • Try peek-a-boo pink. Go for the jacket or blazer with a soft pink lining, or wear it on your

Dr. Marianna Snyman

The Year of the Dragon

• Get creative by combining this fun-and-flirty colour with unexpected shades of red, cobalt blue, or mustard yellow. Your skin tone will determine what looks best—and for a sophisticated look, try pairing your favourite pink with grey, black or tan.

➤ From growing food at home to the politics of the ALR, The Eaten Path is an ongoing feature that looks at what we eat, how it is produced and the path our food takes to our table.

Love Pesto? Make it with parsley W e pass by it all the time in the produce section, but when not being used as a garnish or a minor ingredient, what else can we do with parsley? Parsley is botanically called petroselinum crispum. This is derived from the Greek word petros, meaning stone, as it was often found growing in and around groups of rocks. Today this herb, naturally high in vitamin A and C, is usually available in two different varieties. Curly leaf parsley is the most common one we see today at the local grocery store, however in CHEF some markets, flat DEZ leaf Italian parsley is just as comOn Cooking mon. The main visual difference between the two is just what the names predict, however flat leaf Italian parsley has more flavour than its curly common counterpart. When parsley is being used for purposes other than garnish, it is usually added as a minor ingredient to characterize a dish with a distinct touch of natural herb flavour and a bit of colour. However, there are some recipes that use parsley as a main ingredient, such as pesto. Traditionally pesto is prepared by pureeing fresh basil leaves mainly with olive oil, pine nuts, garlic, parmesan cheese and lemon juice to form an outstanding pasta sauce, however the basil leaves can be substituted with parsley. This makes the pesto recipe not only more affordable, but also easier to create from scratch all year round, as fresh parsley is more accessible in the markets than fresh basil. I hope you enjoy this recipe. It is one of our favorites and we make it all the time.

Parsley Pesto 2/3 cup roasted, salted cashews 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese 2 large garlic cloves, peeled Juice of 1/2 lemon 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp fresh cracked pepper 1 bunch fresh curly leaf parsley, large stems removed

In a food processor, grind the cashews on high speed for approximately 15 seconds. Continue to process on high speed while slowly adding one quarter cup of the olive oil through the top opening, and then process for another 30 seconds until mixture is almost completely smooth and liquid. Turn off the processor. Add the cheese, garlic, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Turn the processor back on and process on high speed while feeding the parsley through the top opening. When all of the parsley has been added, continue to process on high speed while slowly adding the remaining one quarter cup of olive oil. Turn off the processor, scrape down the sides, and process for another 10 to 15 seconds. Toss with hot, freshly cooked pasta of your choice, or use in a variety of applications such as a pizza or bruscetta topping, or mix it with mayo for a great sandwich spread, or with sour cream for a great veggie dip. Makes approximately 1.5 cups ◗ Chef Dez is a food columnist, culinary instructor and cookbook author. Visit him at www. chefdez.com. Write to him at dez@chefdez.com or P.O. Box 2674, Abbotsford, B.C.

If you go Art in Harms Way: Feb. 19 to March 28 at the Chilliwack Gallery inside the Chilliwack Cultural Centre. Opening reception Feb. 21 from 1 to 3 p.m. in the Gallery.

Searching for the Midnight Sun - Love is an insulating thread that can be woven into a fabricto make a coat of warmth against the coldness of human indifference. 24” x 36” oil - R.V. Harms 1993-97 BY MARY CHALMERS MAIN Special to the Times

Choose Me - 36” x 60” oil - R.V. Harms 2000

veryone is invited to take advantage of this unique opportunity to view paintings in oil and watercolour and accompanying written expressions, by wellknown, popular, local artist and entrepreneur Robert V. Harms. A retrospective of Bob’s work will be on display at the Chilliwack Gallery in the Chilliwack Cultural Centre, 9201 Corbould St. in Chilliwack from Feb. 19 to March 28. A reception will be held on Feb. 21 from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Gallery. There will be 75 original paintings on display, some of which will be for sale. In addition, share in the launching of Bob’s new book of his life and his paintings, “Works of Consequence.” Bob was born in September 1940 in Swift Current, Sask. He moved to Chilliwack and attended Chilliwack senior secondary school, graduating 1958, 1959, and finally 1960, with a major in art. He went on to UBC, and earned a B. A. in English and psychology.

This painting is a celebration of what is best in music and life. Even without the musician’s touch, musical instruments by association have a life of rhythms and harmonies all of their own. The guitar player closes his eyes and knows that music is a dream for the waking man. 24’ x 36” oil - R.V. Harms 1994-97

Art in Harms Way Educator, wrestler, entrepreneur, Robert Harms was all of these but above all he was an amazing artist During this period he took some pre-architectural and art design courses and in 1969 he completed his master’s degree in school administration, graduating at the top of his class. “Not bad for a dyslexic who was considered to be a slow learner in the first grade.” With all that wonderful education he went back to his alma mater as a teacher at Chilliwack senior. It was a hesitant start but after two years he was voted the most popular teacher. His years as an art teacher were very productive. He ran his class like an open studio, frequently working alongside his students. There are many Chilliwack residents in their 30s and 40s who remember “Mr.

Harms” as being a friendly, strict but fair teacher and administrator. Many thank him for steering them towards a career in art and design. The desire to be a true Renaissance man led him to get involved in professional wrestling. He was known in the ring as the “Magnificent Mennonite – Canada’s Handsomest Athlete: with a body that men feared and women desired.” His parents always told him that Mennonites were pacifists and true to his up bringing, “he would pass a fist wherever it was needed to defeat his opponents.” In his 40th year he realized that he had three bad habits: smoking cigars, drinking coffee and teaching school. He decided

to give them all up to develop property. His first attempt was to develop a motel in which every room would display two original paintings. The motel was never built but he did create some 60 watercolours, which were eventually displayed along with several mosaics and a thousand pound carving of a unicorn, at a project that was completed, his nightclub The Blue Unicorn. The cabaret business allowed him to leave teaching, and eventually also the cabaret business. His investments have allowed him to become the patron of his favourite painter of contemporary oils—himself. He and his wife of many years currently live on a genteel estate on the Hope River. He built the house on riverfront acreage to showcase his artwork and sense of design. It also contains an art gallery, which is home to the Harms permanent collection. Bob likes to think of it as “The Harmitage.” His paintings have also been exhibited in solo and group shows in Canada and the United States, many have been displayed in private collections all over the world.

Stuart McLean plays the Chilliwack Cultural Centre on March 10.

erhaps nothing says Canada quite like the calm inflection of Stuart McLean, and now Chilliwack audiences have a chance to hear the classic stories of The Vinyl Café live; Canada’s favourite storyteller comes to the HUB International Theatre for a live taping on March 10 at 7:30 p.m. in a heartwarming and intimate performance you won’t want to miss. Stuart McLean’s humorous stories of small-town Canada broadcast are usually found on CBC radio, centering on the misadventures of a couple named Dave and Morley and their two children. Their misadventures are the sort that any normal family endures—and with McLean’s signature deadpan delivery, the show reminds its listeners that stressful situations make the

With a handful of good-natured spirit and plenty of pluck, families can survive anything—as proven when Dave is put in charge of the Thanksgiving turkey or decides to try his hand at tobogganing. They’re the sort of tales that have audiences laughing, sighing and smiling all the way to the end. “That’s when I feel I’m doing my best work,” McLean says. “When I take people to a place where they laugh and they cry and their feelings are confused.” This live taping in Chilliwack will feature two brand-new Dave and Morley stories, as well as a dash of

and a Canadian mother. He moved to Ontario during his teenage years where he put behind his Mexican musical roots in favour of the fresh sounds that surrounded his new environment. A record by Los Lobos, a Mexican American band, eventually brought him “back home.” From that moment on, Landa rediscovered his musical roots and began his musical quest to not only learn more about this music, but also write and arrange songs in the Son Jarocho genre. “Tom Landa is surely one of the hardest working bandleaders on the Vancouver roots music scene,” Hillhouse said. “With Locarno he has stretched his musical wings to create a truly original flavour accessible to those who might not have much experi-

ence with Latin music.” L o c a r n o’s mu s i c ha s b e e n described as comparable to popular Latin roots/fusion artists Manu Chao or Rodrigo Gabriela, however even though there are similarities, the group’s high energy, catchy and danceable music offers an instantly infectious sound. Tom strives to create music that is heavily influenced by Mexican styles but uses the elements and musicians around him in his hometown of Vancouver. ◗ Tickets for Locarno are $22 and can be purchased online at www.harrisonfestival.com, by phone at 604796-3664 or in person at the Ranger Station Art Gallery in Harrison and Agassiz Shoppers Drug Mart on Pioneer Ave.

The music tells a story,” Sarah says. The result is a wonderful morning of classical music; it’s a performance like no other, and one that musicians and audience alike enjoy immensely. “It’s such a warm and welcoming experience. I really feel a sense of community developing within the audience,” Sarah says. “I think having everyone relaxing with their coffee around table helps create a wonderfully intimate atmosphere. The exchange between artists and audience in the setting in Chilliwack becomes really magical!” “It’s starting to feel kind of beautifully familiar,” she concludes. “We absolutely can’t wait to play.” ◗ These fantastic musicians take to the stage at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre on Friday, Feb. 27 at 10:30 a.m. Call the Centre Box Office at 604-391-SHOW (7469) or visit chilliwackculturalcentre. ca to reserve your seats: tickets are $22 for students, $24 for seniors, and $27 for adults.

A MAN. THE MOON. A MOST PECULIAR LOVE STORY.

Singer/songwriter WiL is back to perform at Bozzini’s on March 20. CBC

{ MCLEAN, from page A31 } But at heart, Stuart McLean is a simple, kind and gentle man. “I feel that I’m a guy writing stories and I’d better write another one,” he says, warm and humble. “I’ve been lucky that I’ve been able to spin it out in many mediums.” McLean’s stories are quintessentially Canadian, and resonate fiercely with audiences all over the country. Best of all, the tales of the Vinyl Café never get old, changing every time they’re told and getting better with age. He might be the host of one of Canada’s most popular radio

With his unbridled dedication and the support of local fans (many of whom contributed to the more than $10,000 raised through FANPUSH), WiL’s fifth studio album, El Paseo, was released in September 2014. The album, aptly named “The Ride” in Spanish, has seen its first single “Make Make” climb the charts, earn a nomination for Best Song on CBC Music Awards and continue its success with the release of an insanely adorable video of a caricatured couple “make making” a life for themselves. Also recognizable are two of the album’s other tracks, namely “Roam”

(which received over 3.5 million YouTube views) and “There Is,” both featured in award-winning Travel Alberta campaigns. With a second single in the works, WiL will be opening for Canadian music icon, Burton Cummings throughout the month of March. Kicking off in Victoria, BC on March 8, this tour sees WiL making 12 city stops, including Bozzini’s in Chilliwack March 20. ◗ Tickets for Wil’s March 20 Bozzini’s show are now on sale and can be purchased online at www.ibreakstrings.com/tour-dates.

STUBBS, Joyce Marie (nee Hayes) Born in Chilliwack 76, passed away the morning of Jan 28th, 2015 peacefully in her sleep at Sunpoint Village in Kelowna she is survived by her husband Reginald, her son Charles (Diane Paul) of Beaverdell and daughters Marjorie Spencer (Dave Kempton) of Kelowna and Amy Heward (Melvin ) of Chilliwack 9 grandchildren and 6 great-grandchildren. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Alzheimers Society.

Of Abbotsford, passed away peacefully February 7, 2015 at the age of 96 into the waiting arms of his Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. William, a lay minister and radio teacher, vocational pastor, health care administrator and missionary was born July 23, 1918 in Greenfarm, Saskatchewan as the only child of Johann Thiessen and Margaretha (Enns) Dyck joining their blended families. Just several months after his birth his mother perished in the Spanish flu epidemic. His father then married a widowed Katarina Toews who raised him together with her children including a toddler Abe who became his ‘twin’. He was baptized at 17 into the Greenfarm MB Church and that is where he received his calling to Christian ministry. He met Tiena (Kay) Penner at Herbert Bible School and they were married October 19, 1940. They partnered in ministry for 66 years in Chilliwack, BC; Linden and Lethbridge Alberta; Herbert, Saskatchewan; Neuvo Ideal, Mexico and in their active retirement in Abbotsford, BC. Together ‘Bill & Kay’ had 4 children: Marilyn (Peter) Baerg, Robert (Jean), Herb (Nancy) and Rick (Aldene) who mourn his passing together with 9 grandchildren (with spouses) and 16 great - grandchildren; brother-in-law Jake (Ann) Penner, sisters-in-law Elsie Kucher, Elizabeth Penner and Hilma Taves, many nieces and nephews in the extended Thiessen, Toews, Penner and Enns/Dyck families. Funeral Services will be held at Clearbrook MB Church, Abbotsford on February 13, 2015 at 11:00 AM with a viewing at the church February 12th from 6:30 to 8:00 PM.
