Threatening tax scam tries to take couple for $1,500 Vikki Hopes Abbotsford News
A man posing as an employee of the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) almost scammed an Abbosford couple out of $1,500 last week and then argued with police about his legitimacy. Const. Ian MacDonald said the shaken couple came to the front counter of the Abbotsford Police Department APD, saying they had just transferred the money to a man who claimed they owed back taxes. He threatened that they would be arrested if they didn’t pay. MacDonald said that while the couple
was at the APD, they received a call from the fraudster and it was answered by an officer, who identified himself to the caller. Meanwhile, another officer worked to have the transaction cancelled. The caller became belligerent, demanded that the money transfer go through, and wanted the badge numbers of the investigators involved. “He was essentially acting fearless. He didn’t care (that police were involved),” MacDonald said. The caller eventually hung up, and the officer was able to block the financial
transaction. MacDonald said it appears that the scammer was calling from overseas and, although police are continuing to investigate, these matters are difficult to solve. Last month, the CRA issued a public notice warning of such scams, saying the caller usually says taxes are owed and payment must be made immediately or the targets could face charges, jail or deportation. The CRA advised that anyone getting such a call should hang up and report it to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre toll free at 1-888-495-8501.

Homeless housing project could grow City holds position on expansion of ‘protest’ camp over whether homeles people can camp on public land in Abbotsford, which has not yet been decided.
Abbotsford News
The City of Abbotsford won’t remove people from the newly expanded Gladys Avenue homeless protest camp. The site, which has been in place on the southwest side of the road since 2013, spread to more city-owned land across the street last week. “The city has been notified that this is an extension of the protest camp, so we are considering it part of the existing protest,” said Katherine Treloar, the City of Abbotsford spokesperson.
More housing beds possible
BC Housing is considering an increase to a planned Gladys Avenue facility for homeless men. Treloar said the city hasn’t ousted the Gladys campers for two reasons. First, because they’re engaging in a political
protest, it falls outside the city’s jurisdiction to tell them to leave. Second, the protest directly relates to B.C. Supreme Court case,
The city is also working with BC Housing and Abbotsford Community Services to build a “low-barrier” supportive housing facility further north on Gladys Avenue. BC Housing, the Crown corporation funding the project, now says it may expand the facility beyond the initially planned 20 beds.
Treloar said the city would support more beds being added. The project will provide housing and services for men who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. It will not require occupants to fully abstain from drugs and alcohol, although these substances will not be allowed inside. The project was initially planned to open in 2016, but that has now been delayed to mid-2017 or later. BC Housing has issued a letter of intent to a preferred contractor for the project.
More Townline Hill-linked drug charges Vikki Hopes Abbotsford News
A man who was arrested on Sept. 8 in Abbotsford and charged with drug offences is now facing more charges after cocaine, heroin and meth were allegedly found in the vehicle in which he was travelling. Vishal Bajaj, who police say is involved in the ongoing Townline Hill conflict, and another man, Kuldeep Gill, were arrested on Wednesday (Sept. 16) at 4 p.m. in a vehicle in the Safeway parking lot in the 27500 block of Fraser Highway.
Police say wrapped packages of the drugs were found in the car. Bajaj and Gill, both 26, have now each been charged with three counts of possession for the purpose of trafficking. Bajaj has also been charged with breaching his bail conditions two days earlier. One of his conditions is that he follow a curfew of between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. Const. Ian MacDonald said Bajaj was not home during those hours when members of the Abbotsford Police Department’s newly formed

gang enforcement team conducted a curfew check on Sept. 14. He has been remanded in custody, with his next court appearance scheduled for Sept. 24. Gill has been released under court-ordered conditions. His next court appearance is slated for Oct. 19. This is Bajaj’s third set of identical charges this year. He was first charged with three counts of possession for the purpose of trafficking in May, after he was arrested in a vehi-
cle in the area of Upper Maclure Road and Mallard Street. Also charged with the same offences at that time was Iqbal Kular. Bajaj faced the same charges on Sept. 8, after he was arrested at a home in the 30700 block of Sandpiper Drive, where officers seized cash, cocaine, crack cocaine, heroin and meth. Those charges led to Bajaj’s court-ordered conditions, which included that he follow a curfew and not possess weapons, alcohol, drugs or cellphones.

Local producers ready to meet demand for free-run eggs
QUALITY
Prices in effect September 21 - 26
Abbotsford News
Most evenings, you can find Scott Janzen in his Abbotsford barn, making sure his thousands of chickens get to sleep properly. His birds will come up to him, peck at his legs, hop onto his shoulder, leap into the air and fly past his head. Janzen has run his own farm for eight years, and for most of that time, his chickens – like the vast majority both in B.C. and around North America – were confined to cages. Last year, though, Janzen decided to join an increasing number of egg producers and make the considerable investment to convert one of his two barns to housing free-run chickens. It’s a move that came at a substantial cost, with the hope of profits down the line. “I realized that’s the way of the future so I needed to personally change to meet the needs of our customers,” Janzen said. And with the announcement earlier this month from fast food giant McDonald’s that it would source all its eggs from cage-free farms within a decade, Janzen’s decision is looking even better. Indeed, producers in Abbotsford – which is home to 67 egg farms, representing more than half of the B.C.’s total – are well-positioned to take advantage of an industry-wide move towards eggs generated by birds living outside of cages. Those include free-run birds, which live in open barns, and free-range birds, which have access to the outside. A smaller subset of the latter category lays eggs that are certified as “organic.” In 2014, a little more than 16 per cent of the eggs produced in British Columbia came from non-caged animals, up from nine per cent in 2007. Those numbers might be ticking up slowly, but with 840 million eggs produced in B.C. last year, they represent a huge quantity of food. Those “specialty eggs” are also sold for more money, and now represent around 22 per cent of all revenue. Driven largely by demand from gro-

Although animal welfare activists applauding McDonald’s move towards eggs from cagefree chicken say the end goal should be meat certified as “organic” by a third party, Janzen says the transition to such a system will largely depend on retail and individual consumers. Decades ago, Janzen noted, all eggs were produced on what would come to be known as “free-range” farms. But pressure for more, and cheaper, eggs led to larger, more institutional farms. Now, as demand trends in the other direction, farmers are heading back to their roots, although the change is slowed due to the capital costs. In the meantime, Dwight Yochim, the executive director of the BC Egg Marketing Board, said some of the calls for reforms overlooks some of the birds’ own preferences. Calls for birds to be fed organically produced grass, for example, overlook the fact that chickens, like humans, are omnivores that eat both meat and plants. And the free-range birds actually die more often, as they are more susceptible to diseases like salmonella that come from eating eggs laid on the ground and trampled underfoot. Nevertheless, as Janzen said, “What the consumer wants, the farmers will produce.” Outside his free-run barn, he has fenced off a small portion of land to teach his curious, but wary, birds about the great outside. The education is necessary because, thanks to a request for free-range eggs from a major grocery chain, the birds will have two acres of land to roam after they finish laying eggs in the morning. He chuckles at the large plot of land his birds will soon have licence to roam, but is happy with the direction his farm is going. “There are a lot of farmers out there who want to change,” he says. “When a bird pecks your toes and sits on your shoulder and flies around you, it has a different feel to it, and I think it’s a lot of fun. It’s not really a job, it’s really entertaining to me.”

grams that fall under the three pillars of UWFV. The three pillars are: helping children be all they can be, moving people from poverty to possibility, and building strong communities. Executive director Wayne Green said one in three Fraser Valley residents use the services supported by United Way. “Not only do we provide a safety net of services, we also in-
vest in specific programs that are important to residents of Abbotsford and the Fraser Valley,” he said. “The projects we fund are mostly for skills development, to help people help themselves. The Fraser Valley is well known for its generosity. We are relying on the community’s generosity to address critical local issues.” For more information, visit uwfv.bc.ca.

ABBOTSFORD NEWS I Wednesday, September 23, 2015
Exercise in frustration Frustration. That word can likely be applied to every party involved in the homeless issue in Abbotsford. The homeless are frustrated they don’t have more secure options for shelter. Ditto for service providers who work with limited resources to assist street people with deep substance abuse and mental health issues. Residents and business owners are frustrated with the appalling mess of the Gladys Avenue camp, and the recent expansion onto more city-owned land across the street. And the city – police, mayor, council and department managers – are no doubt acutely frustrated having their collective hands tied by an irksome court case challenging the constitutionality of disallowing homeless from camping in public parks. It is the outcome of that lawsuit – begun in March 2014 and now awaiting the judge’s decision – upon which virtually all of the frustration currently hinges. Until a decision, the homeless will contin-
ue their protest camp, and civic officials will maintain a tolerant position toward it. The irony of the matter is that the court ruling could decidely worsen the matter if it strikes down the city bylaws. The potential is then a free-for-all for those who rightly or unjustifiably choose to camp wherever they please. It doesn’t mean better shelter or treatment services. Even if the judge does uphold the city’s laws, he has already indicated it is not within the court’s jurisdiction to order the city to supply housing or other social services. Most likely, the judge will find it appropriate for the city to provide the homeless with a piece of land to accommodate them in safer, less obtrusive fashion until planned housing becomes available. Ultimately, when the legalities are out of the way, it will still be up to all the stakeholders to steer through this immensely complex issue. The considerable delay this court case has contributed to the situation is perhaps the most frustrating aspect of all.
Do balanced budgets really matter? Tom
Fletcher
B.C. Views The federal election campaign has produced a jumble of conflicting claims about whether or not Canada has a balanced budget or a deficit, how it was determined, and whether it even matters. The definitive word on this came out last week, with the release of the Government of Canada Annual Financial Report, signed off by Auditor General Michael Ferguson. “The government posted a budgetary surplus of $1.9 billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, compared to a budgetary deficit of $5.2 billion in 2013-14,” the report says. “Revenues increased by $10.7 billion, or 3.9 per cent, from 2013-14, reflecting increases across all major revenue streams. Program expenses increased by $5.2 billion, reflecting increases in major transfers to persons and other levels of government, offset in part by a decrease in direct pro-
gram expenses.” The Conservative government’s pre-election budget calculated that last year was in deficit, and this year would be the first in the black since 2008. Ottawa pundits say this “surprise surplus” was engineered with intentionally pessimistic budget estimates, so Prime Minister Stephen Harper would get a boost right about now. Liberal leader Justin Trudeau claimed last year’s surplus was partly generated by cuts to Veterans’ Affairs and Aboriginal Affairs. Wrong and wrong. Veterans’ Affairs spending was up 13 per cent, and Aboriginal Affairs spending rose nearly 30 per cent. Trudeau has also insisted Canada is in recession now, which helps his suddenly adopted position that a Liberal government would run deficits for the next three years to build infrastructure. Harper ran the biggest deficits in Canadian history after the 2009 crash, bailing out auto makers and building lots of “shovel ready” infrastructure, as did the U.S. and other countries. The question raised by Trudeau’s plan is whether it’s a good idea to keep doing that without a financial crisis.
France, for example, has run operating deficits every year since the early 1970s, although the current Socialist government vows to balance the books by 2017. France’s operating debt is now equal to 91 per cent of its Gross Domestic Product. Canada’s net debt-to-GDP ratio is cur-
Harper ran the biggest deficits in Canadian history after the 2009 crash... rently around 30 per cent, down from frightening levels in the 1990s before the Chrétien government finally balanced the budget. (Fun fact: then-finance minister Paul Martin not only cut transfers to provinces, unlike the current government, he inflicted the largest-ever cuts to the CBC. Harper’s CBC cuts were part of government-wide reductions, again due to that 2009 crisis.) NDP leader Thomas Mulcair has promised to balance the budget every year of
his mandate, should he form Canada’s first-ever socialist government. He will spend the rest of the campaign trying to reconcile this promise with the grandiose spending plans he has piled up. Meanwhile in B.C., Finance Minister Mike de Jong may have benefited from Harper’s lowball budget. In his first quarter update last week, de Jong reported that his February budget forecast is on track, with a $277 million surplus. This is despite a $300 million bill for forest firefighting, thanks to personal and corporate income tax revenue expected to be $374 million higher than budgeted. B.C. bases its tax revenue figures on federal estimates, and the ones they got early this year were clearly low. Understated or not, this is a nice problem to have. De Jong says that at the current pace, B.C. will pay off its accumulated operating debt by 2020. The last time the province was free of operating debt was 1982. The big debt peak came during the NDP 1990s, with another spike from 2009 to 2013 under the B.C. Liberals. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

letters Why punish those who choose to live in the Valley? I write in response to an article published in the latest edition of the Abbotsford News regarding Abbotsford city council axing the transit credit for West Coast Express commuters. What Abbotsford council doesn’t seem to take into consideration is that those who take the West Coast Express from Mission to Vancouver (and who actually do pay) shell out the most and get the least. We pay a monthly fare of almost $340 a month. The sting of paying such high fares (and getting very little for it) was alleviated by not having to pay additional costs just getting to and from the train. There are only five trains a day into Vancouver and five back to Mission at night. There are no weekend trains so Valley residents cannot enjoy any “benefits of using the SkyTrain or Seabus on weekends” (as spouted by TransLink about Compass). We cannot get into Vancouver without getting into our cars. Yes, people choose to live in the Valley, but why should they be punished for it? Wages offered out here are ridiculous, so rather than becoming low-income households, we have to commute. Being expected to now pay a further $52 a month will quite possibly take food off people’s tables – though I’m sure not those of council members. Why can’t the CFVT system get scanners for their buses to read Compass cards? Shouldn’t this have been worked into the city’s budget? Having scanners would definitely alleviate the fare evasion that will be (or is now) taking place.

A 23-year-old man has been sentenced for his role in the death of Joe Zecca, who was found lying on the street on Lonzo Road and Vedder Way in Abbotsford on May 10. Andre Marc Provencal has received one additional day in jail, 18 months’ probation and a lifetime weapons ban after previously pleading guilty to charges of uttering threats and possessing a weapon for a dangerous purpose. Two counts of assault with a weapon were stayed during sentencing on Sept. 15 in Abbotsford provincial court. Provencal has been in custody since his arrest just days after Zecca was killed. Co-accused Shiloh Davidson, 31, is still before the courts for a charge of second-degree murder in Zecca’s death. He is next scheduled to appear on Nov. 17. A passing motorist found Zecca lying in the street at 11:08 p.m. on May 10. When emergency crews arrived, they found him severely injured. They provided medical assistance but he was pronounced dead at the scene at 11:25 p.m. The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team took over the investigation and announced the charges a few days later, saying that Zecca’s death was the result of an altercation in which he suffered head wounds and other injuries.

A former gang member is suing the B.C. government, claiming he endured a brutal five-hour beating by fellow inmates just steps away from a guard desk at Surrey Pretrial Services Centre. A civil suit filed last week by Abbotsford’s Daniel Cunningham alleges he suffered brain damage and multiple broken bones after other prisoners forced him into a cell and kicked, punched and stomped on him. “The plaintiff had his head forced into the toilet water several times in an attempt to drown him,” the court document reads. “He was forced to lick his own blood off the shoes of his attackers and clean his blood off the floor and walls using his clothes.” Cunningham, 35, claims he screamed repeatedly and banged on the closed cell door. The claim says the cell where the assault took place was about three metres away from the guard control desk. The lawsuit says Cunningham was arrested and remanded to Surrey Pretrial Services Centre in April 2015 on drug trafficking charges. Cunningham accuses the guards of negligence and misfeasance for having knowingly permitted the assault. He is seeking damages for his injuries and for violations of his Charter rights. He is now in protective custody. None of the allegations has been proved in court. B.C. Corrections has yet to file a response.

There are two ‘wars’ being fought in west Abbotsford – one between gang members vying for turf, and the second pitting teenagers against each other in ongoing grudge matches. The result has been an escalating litany of assaults, vandalism, drive-by shootings, and the death of an innocent 74-year-old man. I’m so sorry to lose a grandpa. I pray we don’t lost a child.
CHIEF BOB RICH by Vikki Hopes Abbotsford News
A
bbotsford became known as the “murder capital of Canada” in 2008 and 2009, when a bloody war between the Red Scorpions (RS) and the UN Gang spilled onto city streets. As the two gangs battled over drug turf, most of the lives lost in Abbotsford as a result – six in 2008 and 11 in 2009 – were linked to the clash. Police Chief Bob Rich is determined that those numbers will not be repeated. The Abbotsford Police Department (APD) is now employing many of the tactics it used in that earlier gang war to deal with the current one, dubbed the “Townline Hill conflict” – named for the area where the majority of incidents have occurred. The current conflict – ongoing since mid-2014 – involves two groups of about 40 men in total, predominantly from the South Asian community, fighting over drug territory. Rich said one of the gangs is led in Abbotsford by two men – Sandeep Sidhu and Jimi Sandhu – while the other is headed by another man, Gavin Grewal. The three were the subject of a public notice by police in March, warning that they posed a risk of “significant harm to the safety of the community and anyone who may associate with them.” Rich said the gangs are
THE CRIME LINE
fueled by the same motivation that drives most criminal activities – the lure of quick cash. “They’re trying to make money to support their lifestyle … They want to drive nice cars, they want to go on great holidays and spend a lot of money on nice clothes.” And in their fight to claim drug territory, they often don’t care who gets hurt along the way, Rich said. The first major incident bringing these issues to light took place on Oct. 2, 2014, when 18-year-old Harwin Baringh was fatally shot while in his vehicle on Sparrow Drive. “He was somebody completely drawn up into this conflict … and he lost his life,” Rich told a community crime forum held Sept. 10 at Abbotsford Arts Centre in response to the Townline Hill conflict. A series of drive-by shootings and assaults followed Baringh’s murder. The APD’s biggest concern – that an innocent life would be lost – occurred three weeks ago on Sept. 2. Gunfire erupted on Promontory Court when a man who had been targeted stepped out of his car and onto his driveway. That man was not hit, but his next-door neighbour, Ping Shu Ao, 74, who was taking out his garbage, died when he was struck by a stray bullet. Rich said children were in both Ao’s residence and in the targeted home. “I’m so sorry to lose a grandpa. I pray we don’t lost a child,” he said during the crime forum. The APD has reached out to the community by holding two public forums –

Among police concerns in the Townline Hill area is another, less serious conflict involving two groups of boys, mostly teens, whose dispute began in May 2014 and has involved instances of vandalism and mischief, such as smashing car windows. That conflict does not involve drugs, but some of the youths are moving into gang involvement, and have no respect for author-
ity, Rich said. Others are at risk of becoming gang-involved. An example is a 15-yearold boy who was being investigated for an assault. Police arrived at his home to arrest him, but his parents refused to bring him outside or let police in, forcing officers to get a warrant. When the teen was arrested, he was hostile, spewing a string of obscenities at police. “What’s going to happen to a 15-year-old who treats authority that way? … If we don’t do something about it, he is lost,” Rich said. He said resources are
being provided in the community and schools to help families who have troubled kids. This includes a parent co-ordinator who helps identify families needing support, and programs aimed at kids under the age of six. Police are asking the public to report suspicious activity; however, there have been some challenges getting that co-operation. In the Ao shooting, police received only one 911 call. Rich believes that could be related to a language barrier – although 911 can provide an interpreter – or a distrust of police. But the APD needs residents to be

the eyes and ears of the community. Also similar to the police response to the earlier drug war, the APD has formed a gang enforcement team that has been keeping tabs on known gangsters – knocking on their doors and pulling over their cars, among other measures. The Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit – the province’s anti-gang agency – is also involved. “The idea is to make Abbotsford a really crappy place for them (gangsters) to operate,” Rich said. Among the successes have been several charges laid against Vishal Bajaj, who police have identified as being involved in the conflict. On three separate occasions this year – the latest two arrests within a week of each other – Bajaj was allegedly found with cocaine, heroin and meth, and each time was charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking. Rich said this type of intervention helped, in part, to alleviate the previous gang issues by resulting in the arrests of key leaders and their associates. He hopes to put an end to the current situation before it reaches the levels of the former battle, but police cannot do it alone. “We have a problem. These two groups are going at it, and it will go quiet for probably a few weeks here, but if we don’t find a way to (intervene), it will continue on, so we have to change some things in order to make our community safe – together.”

The Townline Hill area is a neighbourhood that is predominantly South Asian, as are the combatants. The violence, the bullets and the bloodshed have brought public attention upon the Indo-Canadian community, raising questions about racial stereotyping and culturally inclusive responses to the situation. by Laura Rodgers Abbotsford News
These kids don’t fit the norm [for gang recruits]…they have good structure, they belong to community networks, they have wealth.”
T
he escalating violence amid the Townline Hill neighbourhood has left residents reeling, police stonewalled, and the city worried about what might come next. For the area’s populous South Asian community, the challenges are numerous: many fear both for their safety and for the negative stereotyping the rest of the city may rush to. Satwinder Bains, the director of the Centre for Indo-Canadian Studies at the University of the Fraser Valley, has a unique perspective on the situation and its effect on all South Asian Abbotsfordians. She’s not a resident of the Townline area herself, but her decades of experience in academia and community development have made her an expert in cross-cultural issues, especially those relating to Punjabi and South Asian communities. She stresses that the Townline conflict is being caused by a small number of youth and young adults, but worries about how far its ripples have spread outward. While relatively few are directly involved in the clashes, she worries that their cultural background will cause

Satwinder Bains is the director of the Centre for Indo-Canadian LAURA RODGERS Abbotsford News Studies at UFV. others in Abbotsford to make unfair assumptions about the rest of the city’s large and diverse South Asian population “You can put people in a box,” she said. “You can say these are Indo-Canadians, they’re immigrant families, they’ve come in a certain period of time, they live in a specific region. I wonder if
that’s the connotation, even without intentionally doing that.” The South Asian community, especially those who live in west Abbotsford, are also the people bearing the brunt of this conflict’s negative consequences. Any feelings of cultural or linguistic divide between the South Asian community and
others in Abbotsford can both exacerbate these consequences and make police investigation more difficult. She worries that it can be too easy for people to use culture as an explanation for negative behaviour, when many other interconnected factors are likely at play as well. When groups like the UN Gang and Red Scorpions were the dominant criminal organizations in the city, she notes, culture wasn’t used to explain the complex reasons why people joined these gangs and committed violent crimes. “We’re putting a high standard on those families,” she said, questioning whether the same standards were being applied to the parents of the notorious Bacon brothers. “Why weren’t they complying?” The people directly involved in the Townline Hill, she notes, aren’t typical gang recruits: they’re often affluent and surrounded by a strong cultural network, with plenty of friends and
family ties. “These kids don’t fit the norm,” she said. “They have good structure, they belong to community networks, they have wealth.” She would like to see police and community groups look deeper into what attracts these people into a life of crime. The explanation in this case here isn’t as simple as poor kids seeking a life of luxury, or isolated loners seeking a gang’s tight social bonds. She’d also like to see more ongoing dialogue between law enforcement and the community. There have been starts, like the two public forums held this year, but she’d like to see this grow into more communication. Throughout the conflict, police investigations have been stalled by an apparent lack of information from neighbours, family and friends of those involved. Bains sees this as a situation that could be alleviated — but only if the conversation
runs both ways. “It’s the first time, [police] said, that the parents are also non-cooperative,” she said. “How could you fault the police for wanting to help?…Young people are getting into trouble, 15-yearolds are in trouble. You can understand the anxiety levels in that.” Police investigations in this dispute have been hampered by a lack of information from parents, neighbours and friends about the people involved in the conflict. Bains notes many reasons people don’t get involved aren’t directly tied to culture. There’s the “bystander effect,” the common situation where someone witnessing a crime is less likely to report it if they think other witnesses already have. There is a common tendency for parents to think the best of their children, and to shield them from negative consequences. And there’s fear, common when organized crime is involved, that someone reporting an incident could be somehow found out and targeted for revenge. “People say ‘Somebody else will call’ or ‘It’s not my [conflict]; it’s not me,” Bains said. “[They] impose this idea that South Asian parents are this homogenous group.

stay out of trouble and repair strained family relationships. SACRO staff let their clients set their own goals, and meet with them on their own schedules. It’s an approach yielding positive results, and it gives staff unique insight into crime, conflict and community in Townline Hill and elsewhere. “We help them with goals, on their own terms,” said Parveen Uppal, SACRO’s case manager. She notes that youth being drawn to criminal groups is in no way a problem faced only by the South Asian community. But a culturally nuanced approach to prevention and intervention, she said, can be
the best way to help. The program is currently working with 35 young people, and more cases will be taken on as the school year continues. Youngsters are referred to SACRO by schools or police for a variety of reasons – from skipping class, to schoolyard scuffles, to involvement in serious crimes. Youth workers start with a confidential in-depth interview to get to know their clients’ lives, challenges, and goals for the future. Then, they check in weekly, and encourage youth to take steps toward those goals. “A lot of what we help with is getting the
youth back into the school system,” said Uppal. Many of the kids referred to her have been kicked out of mainstream high schools over disciplinary or drug issues. She’ll encourage these kids to stay out of trouble and stay on top of their online or alternate-school coursework, and then use those positive records to advocate for them returning to mainstream schools. Uppal expects they will be over-capacity for clients this year, and suspects even more youth could use SACRO’s help, but some may worry about whether joining the program Continued on A17

‘This is a community issue’ From A15
there are anomalies everywhere. We’re a million strong in Canada. You’re going to have one of everything here.” As like nearly all other cultures in existence, there are occasionally long-running feuds and disputes within Punjabi communities — and they can play out in culturally idiosyncratic ways. Bains urges the police tasked with getting to the bottom of this conflict to make sure they’re taking culture into account. She continued, “The services being offered to these families — are they appropriate; are they cul-
turally responsive; do they know what they’re doing, are they getting the help they need? I don’t think so.” As with any complex problem, the situation in Townline Hill won’t be solved overnight. But with communication, collaboration and cultural understanding, Bains is confident there is progress to be made. “If we keep saying, ‘It’s our problem,’ the police are going to keep saying, ‘Well, you didn’t fix it.’ “We’re not going to hide. This is an issue we’re all facing. There is work we need to do. If we bury our heads in the sand, we’re no better than anyone else. But at the same time, this is a community issue.”
A potential to fall far with wrong crowd From A15
will come with a stigma. She wants to stress that the program is completely confidential. “It’s not going to happen overnight, but we’re trying to do whatever we can in the community,” she said. Gary Dhindsa, one of the program’s youth workers, says helping his clients is a complex challenge. Often, the youth who are recruited by violent or criminal groups are quite young – some are even in middle school. “You can bribe a kid
… get them to deliver a package for $100,” he said. “It’s the most vulnerable ones who get targeted.” For his clients, the allure of joining a criminal group is often about social status. “They want to hang out with the people with power,” he said. “They want to fit in. They want to be known as being connected to this organization.” Most of Abbotsford’s South Asian youth, he notes, are a high-achieving group. But when any young
person falls in with the wrong crowd, there’s the potential to fall far. Some of his troubled clients are involved with smaller-scale conflicts, aligning with groups of other young people who frequently get into fights with rivals. Others find themselves drawn in by a more serious criminal element, hanging out with “friends” in their late 20s or older and getting involved in the drug trade. These two sorts of problems likely have some connection, al-
though that’s unclear. Some of the more serious criminal groups, Uppal noted, may be recruiting youth at unexpected locations — like local gyms. It’s impossible to isolate the kids from all risk, so Dhindsa instead encourages parents to set boundaries, know where their kids are, and spend quality time together as a family. “A lot of them just need a push in the right direction and a person who holds them accountable for their actions,” he said.

The UFV Cascades men’s soccer team set the offensive pace early and weathered a storm from the UVic Vikes to capture their first home win of the season on Saturday. UFV beat the Vikes 2-1 at Panther Field to bounce back after a 3-2 loss to the UBC Thunderbirds in Abbotsford on Friday. The Cascades came out aggressive offensively and drew a handball foul at the 10 minute mark. The ensuing penalty kick was converted by Colton O’Neill. About 10 minutes later, Michael Mobilio connected after a nice set-up to help the Cascades put a stranglehold on the game. The Vikes drew within one a few minutes later but that was as close as they would get. “I couldn’t be more pleased and proud of the effort today,” said UFV head coach Tom Lowndes Lowndes said the team sat back a bit after going up 2-0 but played excellent defensive soccer in the second half. “I think we took our foot off the gas and got a little sloppy for 10 minutes and let them in the game with a goal,” he said. “But if we play like we did in the second half today and defend as a unit, teams will find it hard to play against us.” He said the team still needs to work on its defensive game. “We’ve conceded seven goals in four games and for me thats too high,” he said. “Defensively we need to be a little tighter. I think
we can do it, UVic didn’t get too many quality chances in the second half.” The win came a day after a 3-2 loss to UBC that saw UBC lead from the 16th minute on and UFV trying to chip away. Kree Byrne and James Najman scored the Cascades goals in the loss. The men’s team moves to two wins and two losses on the season, and they next travel north for a pair of games against UNBC. Meanwhile, the undefeated steak continues for the UFV Cascades women’s soccer team. UFV defended home field on Friday and Saturday to improve to three wins and one tie early into the Canada West regular season. The Cascades battled the UBCO Heat on Saturday and were buoyed by a brilliant second half performance from rookie Gurneet Dhaliwal. She broke a 1-1 tie in the second half by scoring two goals in threea minutes and that offensive explosion led the Cascades to a 3-1 win. UFV’s Danica Kump opened the scoring for the Cascades in the 25th minute. The women played down to the wire against TRU on Friday, securing the win in the 81st minute. It all came down to Tristan Corneil’s corner that twisted into the back of the net. The wins move UFV to second place in the Canada West western conference. The women’s team hits the road next weekend, with games in Edmonton on Friday and Prince George on Saturday.

Claypool leads Abby to comeback win By Ben Lypka Abbotsford News
W.J. Mouat played more than three quarters of solid football on Friday but it wasn’t enough to stop Abbotsford Secondary’s Chase Claypool. The Hawks had a 36-17 lead over the Panthers with about five minutes remaining in the game but a trio of touchdowns by Claypool turned the final result into a 39-36 win for Abbotsford Secondary. Claypool, who has already signed a letter-of-intent with the University of Notre Dame, ran for backto-back touchdowns to cut the lead to one major and then recovered an onside kick. On the ensuing series, Claypool grabbed a pass from Panthers quarterback John Madigan to score the winning touchdown with little time left on the clock. He was also successful on a two-point conversion to give the Panthers a little cushion. Mouat also had a number of strong performances, including running back Dion Pellerin (119 yards rushing and one touchdown) and quarterback Noah Dietrich (225 yards passing and three touchdowns thrown). Hawks receiver Elijah Falconer grabbed three touchdowns in a losing cause. In other exhibition action featuring Abbotsford teams, the Robert Batemen Timberwolves lost 17-0 to Handsworth on Saturday and Rick Hansen lost 46-0 to Langley Secondary. The teams return to exhibition action next week, with the
Panthers taking on Holy Cross, Bateman hosting Carson Graham, Hansen playing Eric Hamber and Mouat playing St. Thomas More Collegiate. The regular season for BC High School football kicks off the first weekend in October.

Kidney Walk at Mill Lake The K i d n ey Foundation of Canada hosts its annual Kidney Walk at Mill Lake Park in Abbotsford on Sunday, Sept. 27. The event offers two options – a 2.5km walk or a 5-km fun run. Registration begins at 9 a.m., and the event starts at 10 a.m. The Kidney Walk is held annually to raise funds for critical programs and services for British Columbians affected by kidney disease and for their families.

MICHALSKI, Carolyn Beverley October 5, 1937 September 10, 2015 Carolyn Michalski passed away September 10 after a 3 year battle with cancer. Carolyn was the 3rd of 6 children born in Young, Saskatchewan to Minnie and Sven Erickson. After completing school at Kingsbridge, Carolyn trained as a Registered Nurse at Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, then worked in hospitals in Williams Lake, Prince George and Hope. Following a move to Abbotsford in 1972, she worked at Menno Home and later at Cannon Clinic until 1985 when she retired. Carolyn enjoyed sewing, canning, baking and cooking holiday meals for family & friends. She was an avid curler and enthusiastic and devoted fan of the sport. She also loved dancing and she and husband Frank were well-known for their talent for jiving. During her retirement Carolyn pursued hobbies including gardening, reading, camping and volunteering for the March of Dimes. Carolyn is predeceased by her parents Sven and Minnie, and sister Roselie, and is survived by husband Frank, daughter Tracy, sisters Betty Ann and Bernice, and brothers Carl and Orlin. Carolyn was our sunshine and will be deeply missed.
An informal memorial will be held from 1 - 4 pm October 10, 2015 at Peardonville Hall. Donations in lieu of flowers can be made to the FVHC Foundation in support of the Tertiary Palliative Care Unit in memory of Carolyn Michalski.
FRIESEN Erna Delores June 23, 1933 ~ Sept. 17, 2015
Erna Delores Nickel was born in Acme, Alberta on June 23rd, 1933 to Rudolf and Olga Nickel. The family moved to Abbotsford, British Columbia in 1951. This is where Erna completed her high school education, met and married her sweetheart Jake and raised their five children. With a family, farm and countless volunteer activities in church and the community, Erna’s hard work and busyness benefited greatly from her endless energy, enthusiasm and high level of efficiency. Erna’s ability to entertain was another gift of hers. Baking, cooking, hosting. That was Erna. Bright white hair, a warm smile, always ‘put together’, Erna’s elegance and style was a presence that rarely went unnoticed. Then there was Erna’s faith - even stronger than she. Dedicated to her devotionals, deep rooted prayer life and a walking demonstration of so many Godly qualities, Erna’s relationship with her Lord was evident - graceful, kind, and unconditionally loving to those around her. Erna is predeceased by the loss of her infant sister, Annie and younger brother Walter and parents Rudolf and Olga Nickel. Erna is survived by her loving husband Jake and her five children, Richard (daughter-inlaw Dorothy), Marlene (son-in law Douglas), Marvin (daughter-in-law Anja, grandchildren Alexander, Alyssa and Jolina), Randy (daughter-in-law Jill, grandchildren, Jeremy and Samantha) and Melinda (sonin-law Jason). Devoted wife, loving mother, caring grandmother, endearing aunt, friend, and faithful follower of Christ Erna, we thank you for your incredible legacy. In honor and remembrance of Erna, in lieu of flowers, donations to the Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) would be sincerely appreciated. A Memorial Service is being held today Wednesday, September 23 at 11:00 a.m. at South Abbotsford MB Church, 32424 Huntingdon Road, Abbotsford. Online condolences to the family may be made at: www.woodlawnfh-abbotsford.com

Funeral will be held in Mission at St. Joseph’s Church on 7th Ave., on Saturday, Sept. 26 at 10:30 am. Celebration of Life to follow in hall below church. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the Kidney Foundation in her name. Please register your consent to the Canadian Transplant Society for the Gift of Life.

Rest in Peace my dear. Love you, Ron xxoo
