City adds new step in demolition process Asbestos concern Jessica Peters The Progress

Greg Trainor, chief development officer with Windriver Power Corporation, answers questions during an open house Wednesday regarding its proposed Tamihi Creek run-of-the-river power project. The company is in the preliminary stages of seeking provincial approval for the $50-million project, which would divert a portion of the water in the creek to generate power, before returning further downstream. GREG KNILL/ PROGRESS

Public hears of Tamihi Creek power plans Greg Knill Chilliwack Progress The public got its first detailed look at a proposal to build a hydro electric power station in a popular recreation area last week. WindRiver Power Corporation held an open house at Tzeachten Community Centre Wednesday to explain its plans for a run-of-theriver power project on the upper half of Tamihi Creek. The $50 million plant would generate 15 megawatts of electricity that would then be sold to BC Hydro. The plan, which has been in the works for more than seven years,

still requires provincial approval, as well as a BC Hydro agreement to buy the power. Nonetheless, the proposal has drawn fire, particularly from the paddling community and environmental groups. Two years ago the application alone was enough for the Outdoor Recreation Council to declare Tamihi a “river to watch” as it released its list of Most Endangered Rivers in 2013. The plan calls for construction of a dam near the headwaters of the creek that would divert a portion of the water flow to a pipeline that would run adjacent down stream. The water would drive a hydro electric turbine at the base of the

pipeline before being returned to the creek. Transmission lines would then carry the electricity to BC Hydro lines in the Chilliwack River Valley. Greg Trainor, Chief Development Officer with WindRiver, said the amount of water diverted would be tightly monitored by the company and regulated by the province, ensuring there was always adequate flow. One concern has been the impact the project would have on kayaking in the area. But Trainor said the upper reaches of the creek offers terrain too difficult for most paddlers.

In fact, recreational access to the area would actually be improved, the company says. The forest service road that is currently closed after repeated washouts will be reopened, providing better (although limited in some areas) access to the area. WindRiver offered detailed examples of how it says it would mitigate environmental impacts, while preserving the recreational potential of the area. It says it has worked closely with First Nations in the region as well. The company must still secure environmental approval from the Continued: TAMIHI/ p4

Chilliwack has joined the short list of municipalities that support WorkSafeBC’s initiative to make demolition sites safer for workers. From now on, demolition permits will only be issued after the city receives written verification that a hazardous risk assessment has been completed by an occupational and health safety professional with experience in asbestos management. The hope is that asbestos will be always be removed, transported and disposed of safely, without exposing workers to its deadly, airborne fibres. Council unanimously passed the item, Policy G-26, at the evening meeting on Oct. 6, following staff recommendations. “Since demolishing buildings containing asbestos can cause serious health problems, the purpose of the new approved policy is to provide a guide to staff with respect to the issuance of demolition permits,” the staff report said. The new policy backs up Section 20.112 of the WorkSafeBC regulations, which describes the requirements that employers and owners are responsible for before beginning work on the demolition or salvage of buildings or structures. The policy will be in place for buildings constructed prior to 1990. In addition, a condition on each demolition permit will be provided reminding the applicant/owner that before beginning work on the demolition or salvage of a structure, all WorkSafeBC Regulations must be complied with. WorkSafeBC has been cracking down on demolition jobs that are

Valley mayors eye more ALR land for industry Jeff Nagel Black Press Some mayors in the Fraser Valley are hoping to pull more farmland out of the Agricultural Land Reserve to serve as industrial sites that can provide more local jobs. Abbotsford Mayor Henry Braun, speaking to a business forum hosted by the Urban Development Institute, said his city expects a decision soon on the removal from the ALR of about 300 acres in west Abbotsford for a new business park adjacent to Langley’s Gloucester Industrial Estates. “That will mean an additional 4,500 employment jobs,” Braun told the audience of realtors and developers Thursday in Langley. He said Abbotsford has seen a surge in demand for industrial development – the city is now weighing applications to build 550,000 square feet of new industrial floor space. Incoming businesses tend to be in manufacturing or warehousing, Braun said, and are typically relo-

cating from higher cost locations in Metro Vancouver. Mission Mayor Randy Hawes told the forum his municipality also sees potential to remove land from the ALR for industrial use, including an 80-acre property Scott Paper used to grow cottonwood trees but no longer needs. “We believe that could come out of the ALR and we’re quite confident that it can. That would provide a considerable number of jobs.” Hawes said he also expects a buyer to emerge before long for the former Genstar lands in southwest Mission, which could house up to 10,000 homes. It’s considered the largest piece of developable urban-designated land in the Lower Mainland but has been in limbo since Genstar Development Co. abandoned plans to develop in B.C. Maple Ridge Mayor Nicole Read said an application to pull land in Albion out of the ALR is also being reconsidered by the farmland commission. She said Maple Ridge strongly supports local agriculture and is

committed to regional food security goals. “But we need to be realistic about what’s happening on our agricultural land and start a new conversation about some of the other potential things we could be doing with it,” Read said. She cited city concerns with numerous fragmented parcels of farmland where people build homes and do nothing related to agriculture, as well as a large medical marijuana plant on agricultural land. “We would like to see more industrial land strategically positioned within Maple Ridge in areas where we just really don’t think there’s going to be a farm use.” Surrey is also a major destination for industrial developers that can no longer find suitable land in Burnaby and Vancouver, the forum heard. Langley Township Mayor Jack Froese said one of the innovative new industries that’s popped up in his area is a firm that feeds organic food waste to black soldier flies, and

uses the protein-rich fly maggots to produce animal feed for farms. In an interview after the meeting, Froese said he would also welcome some restructuring of the ALR to allow more logical development and make farming more feasible, with no net loss for agriculture. “In Langley, we’ve got some areas where it’s almost a patchwork quilt, we’ve got ALR intermingled with urban,” he said. “It would certainly be nice to do some tradeoffs – take some ALR land out and put some other land that’s not in the ALR back in.” Transit improvements urged

Mayors from Maple Ridge to Chilliwack told the forum they want to see transit improved for their residents, and have service better integrated between the TransLink system in Metro Vancouver and cities further east in the Valley. Mission’s Randy Hawes said he expects TransLink to soon increase the $750,000 his municipality pays each year for West Coast Express commuter train service, adding

Countdown to federal election day Jessica Peters The Progress Voting in the upcoming election, on Oct. 19? Read your voter registration card now, before heading to the polls, to double check the location. It may not be where you think it is, say some people who have contacted The Progress. A Cultus Lake resident who says they have been voting at the community hall or Cultus Lake elementary for many years was surprised to find out they’d have to travel to Yarrow to cast a ballot. Another resident is concerned that seniors will head to Evergreen Hall,

he would like to see other Fraser Valley cities contribute. “West Coast Express is, in my belief, a regional transportation service, yet Mission pays 100 per cent of the cost outside the TransLink area.” A provincial freeze on funding for B.C. Transit has also blocked any improvement in local bus service for Fraser Valley communities, Hawes said. “The growth is moving east at a pretty rapid rate,” he said. “We need to build a transportation system that works.” Langley Township’s Jack Froese said he was disappointed by the defeat of the Metro Vancouver referendum on a regional sales tax to expand transit. Nicole Read said it was a “difficult decision” when she opposed the referendum but continues to press for a rapid bus service connecting Maple Ridge to the Evergreen Line, which by next year will extend SkyTrain as far northeast as Coquitlam.

only to find they can’t vote there. Knowing the location beforehand can help plan out the trip, especially for those relying on transit or walking to a polling station. While registering to vote is recommended, and can be done online, there is hope for those who haven’t received their registration card in the mail. New voters, and those who have moved to a new ridings, can still register at a polling station and proceed to vote. Voters may want to plot out a chunk of time to visit the polls, as well. Elections Canada is reporting that this election has already seen more than 2.5 million people casting a ballot, at early voting polling stations over the

Thanksgiving long weekend. That’s an increase of 16 per cent from the 2011 election’s early polling turnout. Chilliwack voters spent anywhere up to two hours over the weekend in lineups at early polling stations around the city. In light of the increased interest in voting, Elections Canada announced they will be fast-tracking those who have their registration in order. By law, everyone who is eligible to vote must have three consecutive hours to cast their vote. For those whose work hours don’t allow for this, employers must give employees time off, with pay. To learn more about what will be considered as identification, and to see where your polling station is, visit Elections Canada online or phone 1-866-499-8025.

Oct. 15 has been named Change Day BC, part of an international movement to make the systems we work and live in better for all of us. The Chilliwack Division of Family Practice has joined in the movement, with doctors, nurses, social workers, patients and many others making public pledges. And there is still time to join the movement, they say. Pledges can be big or small. They can be related to any topic. They are voluntary and made by people passionate about changing care for the better. Dr. Melanie Madill, Deputy Lead for the Chilliwack Division of Family Practice said “Change Day BC encourages the kind of incremental changes at the individual, organizational and community levels that eventually lead to the betterment of health care.” Fraser Health has 434 pledges logged toward the total goal of 5,000 — a number the province-wide campaign has already exceeded. Local pledges can be viewed in numerous forms of social media, including searching #ChangeDayBC on Twitter. They include pledges to “continue my education,” “reduce plastic water bottle consumption,” and “connect with isolated seniors regularly.” The Change Day campaign started within England’s National Health Service, where pledges included leading a healthier lifestyle, spending a day in a wheelchair to better understand a patient’s challenges, tasting medicine to appreciate why children complain about its taste, and introducing oneself to patients – the phenomenal #hellomynameis campaign. Even seemingly small pledges can come together to build a tremendous wave of action that contributes to improvements in our healthcare system. In England, the campaign received 189,000 pledges in its first year and over 800,000 in its second year. “Here at the division, we are promoting Change Day BC to our membership and to community partners,” said Ken Becotte, executive director at the Chilliwack Division of Family Practice. “The professionals in health care and community services go above and beyond; and Change Day BC stems from the recognition that it is their committed contributions that can vastly improve the system we work in.” Change Day BC is being coordinated by the BC Patient Safety & Quality Council and partners like us, who believe that British Columbia’s health, community and social care systems are powered by the creativity, passion and commitment of their patients, providers and administrators. They are hoping to see a “ripple effect” of change across the province. Make your pledge online at www.ChangeDayBC.ca.

Young readers get some help through library buddy program Jessica Peters The Progress Young, struggling readers are being given a chance to learn outside of the classroom, with a new program at two local libraries. But this time, it won’t be the librarians helping kids with literacy. Instead, Reading Buddies matches young students with volunteers from within the community who

want to share their knowledge. The young ‘buddies’ are kids in Grades 1 to 4 that are having trouble reading. The older ‘buddies’ are generally high schoolers, aged 15 and over, who are looking for ways to volunteer in the community. Older buddies can also be adults, and all volunteers are required to complete a criminal record check. Chilliwack librarian Y ALL DAST T!

Jacquelynne Garden is excited to be getting the program up and running at the downtown branch, and will be helping set up the program in Yarrow as well. Both locations will need young students who need a little help, as well as students who can give a little help. The buddies will be matched up for an hour a week, and parents are invited to be a part of the first meet up. And yes, Garden says, an hour of reading is long time for a reluctant reader to be expected to focus. So, in addition to access to all manners of reading material, buddies will have tables of games and puzzles that encourage literacy in a more hands-on way. While Garden is coordinating the Reading Buddies program, it’s the volunteers who will bring it to life. For example, it will be the responsibility of the older buddies to connect with

their younger buddies’ parents, Garden says. They will also go through an orientation session so they know how to help their young buddies. The program is highly successful in Clearbrook, for families with varying barriers to teaching at home, she says. The benefits for the younger readers are plentiful. They get a break from classroom learning and can hopefully connect with an older student in a positive way, Garden says. But there are benefits for the teen volunteers, too. Being a reading tutor can open a student’s eyes to potential career paths, while filling volunteer hour requirements. The program is just getting started and runs through the school year, and Garden will continue matching buddies until the spring. To learn more, phone the library at 604-792-1941.

It must then be granted permission from the province to “borrow” water to drive its turbine. And finally, BC Hydro must agree to purchase the power. The Fraser Valley Regional District, meanwhile, has yet to take a position on the project. Orion Engar, the FVRD’s area director for the Chilliwack River Valley, was at Wednesday’s open house. He said he was there to gather information about the project and the hear from local residents. Engar said the proposal will come before the board at some point, “but we’re not there yet.”

News Trade deal doesn’t fix U.S. lumber issue: Harper Log exports not expanded in Trans-Pacific Partnership Tom Fletcher Black Press The T rans-Pacific Partnership agreement doesn’t resolve Canada’s long-running dispute with the United States over softwood lumber, or remove restrictions on log exports from B.C. Prime Minister Stephen Harper said the Canadian government would like to renew the Canada-U.S. softwood agreement, expired as of Thanksgiving Day. It’s a side deal outside the North American Free Trade

Agreement, and it won’t be covered by the Pacific Rim trade either. “Obviously we would like to see this agreement move forward, and I think industry on both sides of the border would, but for reasons that were not entirely clear, the American administration hasn’t seen it that way,” Harper said in an interview with Black Press. “In terms of forestry, what the TPP does do is provide new tariff-free access to many Asian countries, including enhanced access to the Japanese market.” Restrictions on log exports

B.C.’s control over Crown land log prices has long been an irritant with the U.S. and Japan, while private and aboriginal land log producers are restricted by federal rules. “B.C. was able to ensure that both provincial and federal log export controls will not change as a result of the TPP, despite pressure from Japan to eliminate them,” B.C. International Trade Minister Teresa Wat said in a statement. “B.C.’s objec-

tives for the forestry sector during the TPP negotiations were to gain market access for forestry products to important TPP markets such as Japan, while maintaining existing log export controls.” Premier Christy Clark said this week her first call to Ottawa after the Oct. 19 federal election will be about continuing the U.S. softwood lumber talks. Harper expressed confidence that despite the history of U.S. legal and trade actions over the years, the existing deal can be extended. “We’ve managed to export a lot of lumber over the years and I’m confident we will continue to,” Harper said.

Asbestos concerns spark demolition permit rule change ASBESTOS from Front not properly dealing with asbestos, in an effort to eventually lower the number of deaths related to asbestos exposure. The organization recently released their annual statistics book, which highlights asbestos exposure statistics. From 2005 to 2014, they report 581 deaths in B.C. were related to asbestos exposure, with the majority of those workers dying before the age of 65. Last year, one British Columbian died on an average of every five days from work-related exposure to asbestos. Vancouver, Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Saanich and Nanaimo have also recently adopted policies to require various levels of compliance at the municipal level.

Anyone who has driven on B.C. roads for any length of time has been there — a vehicle races past you at speeds well above the posted limit and then immediately cuts you off with a dangerous lane change. Then there are the drivers who’ll race through a stale yellow light, rather than wait two minutes for the next green, or the ones who jump the green to get in a left turn before oncoming traffic has a chance to move. There is no shortage of aggressive drivers on our roads. As much as we all know it’s illegal and incredibly dangerous, it’s behaviour we’ve all come to expect and, to some degree, accept. We might sigh, and ease our foot off the accelerator a little bit, just to give the aggressor a chance to move a bit farther along and minimize our own risk of getting caught up in any carnage they might generate. But it’s so common, it barely raises an eyebrow. What is still a little surprising, though, (at least it should be) is the percentage of vehicles that go blasting by with a green ’N’ affixed to the back window or bumper. The ’N’ stands, of course, for new (the sticker’s colour is symbolic in its own right). That’s new as in, inexperienced, unpractised, unskilled, amateur. Despite that lack of experience, there’s a blind confidence and sense of indestructibility that seems to come with being young. Granted, not every new driver is a young driver, but it’s a fair assumption that the vast majority aren’t too far removed from their 16th birthday. Regardless, on roads as busy as the ones Lower Mainlanders drive every day — roads that handle everything from cyclists to semis — there is a whole lot going on for even the most experienced driver to take in. Whether it’s slowing down, paying closer attention or ensuring a vehicle is properly maintained, drivers must make sure their actions don’t put others in harm’s way. And part of that responsibility is ensuring new drivers understand that fact. ~ Black Press

B.C. V IEWS

Seeing the forest and the trees in B.C. VICTORIA – There was a flurry of excitement in the B.C. legislature last week, as Delta South independent MLA Vicki Huntington released documents suggesting that a multinational manufacturing company continued to buy up B.C. farms for carbon offsets after they said last June they would stop. False alarm, as it turns out. Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick clarified that three more farms in the Peace and Cariboo region had indeed been bought, but the company was merely following legal advice to close deals on farms that it had already agreed to purchase. The company, British-based cleaning product and pharmaceutical maker Reckitt Benckiser (RB) confirmed this. A company official reiterated that its program to buy farms and replant them with trees is suspended. By the time the B.C. govern-

ment became aware of this global public relations scheme, thanks to the work of NDP MLA Lana Popham and others, about 10,000 hectares of farmland was already planted with seedlings. RB initially said they were buying up abandoned and unproductive farms, but local government offiTom cials disputed that. FLETCHER RB soon realized that undermining already precarious farming communities was going to provide the opposite of the green publicity they sought, at least in B.C. The company told me it is now looking to switch its carbon offset program to replanting forest areas depleted by pine beetle and fire. I’ll believe that when I see it,

but on the face of it, this sounds almost as questionable as converting farmland back to forests. Pine forests need fire to regenerate, so fires have been part of the regeneration of the ecosystem since the retreat of the last Ice Age. Beetle-kill areas are already coming back, and they were never completely denuded in any case, so the notion of manual planting these areas seems impractical. Most are now criss-crossed with deadfall and all but impassible. Another situation that received little public attention was a report issued late this summer by the B.C. Forest Practices Board about forest stewardship plans. The board reviewed 43 stewardship plans from all regions of B.C., prepared as required under provincial law by forest tenure holders on Crown land. They are supposed to deal with things like where roads go and how streams

are protected. This is the management system put in place in 2003, when the B.C. Liberal government changed its approach to forest management. Gone was the NDP’s infamous seven-volume “Forest Practices Code,” which attempted to micromanage every detail of a timber licence, right down to inspecting for litter left at a logging site. In came “results-based” forest management, where licence holders had to produce a plan showing stream protection and other values. The Forest Practices Board has found these plans often aren’t good for much, although results are generally good when they follow up with on-the-ground audits of actual timber harvest areas. The investigation found that many of the plans cover “vast and overlapping areas of the province, and were written using legal language that makes them very dif-

ficult for public understanding or review.” Little has changed since a similar finding in 2006. During that time, the forests ministry was turned into Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, with greatly increased responsibility over wildlife, mining, gas drilling and so on. Columbia River-Revelstoke MLA Norm Macdonald, who traveled the province as NDP forests critic in recent years, says the problem now is there just aren’t enough people on the ground to assess what’s going on in our huge expanse of Crown land. Meanwhile the city media covers professional protesters issuing demands about the Walbran Valley. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Make asbestos an election issue

Bob Penner

TPP leaves too many questions Two weeks ago, after years of long, drawn out, secret bargaining sessions, an initial TPP International Trade agreement was announced. It was touted to be a benefit for Canadian industries, Canadian farmers, Canadian resource development and employment. Yet the agreement is unavailable for scrutiny and those trade representatives who helped craft it and signed on for Canada are not explaining. Other countries that have signed onto this Trans Pacific Par tnership include those that rim right around the Pacific Ocean. There are vast travel distances between them from Arctic, Temperate,T r opical, Temperate again to the Antarctic regions. My concern, as a Canadian, is mostly in regard to food eaten by us and food produced for Canadians by local producers. I also wonder how Canadian producers will be able to withstand the “hollowing out” of our fairly high production and management standards and regulations which are a hallmark of Canadian food production. When we are

challenged by foreign corporations within these Pacific Rim countries to settle when we’re sued under the “Investor-State Dispute Settlement Mechanism” because they have not been given the access or the results they expected. How will we pay those high costs to a tribunal decision? Our method of supply management that has been developed to serve our circumstances will take some powerful hits. Dairy and poultr y farmers may well begin to see a major disruption to our stable system of food supply in the Canadian temperate growing zone, if this TPP proceeds. Last week as I was listening to a local dairy farmer, I heard him explain how the Canadian supply management system supports consistent food security; whereas, the so-called “free market” program in other countries easily fluctuates between supply and demand which can consequently lead to volatility. Local dairy farmers and farmers generally, face a wide variety of costs to produce milk; infrastructure/housing of animals, feed costs from low Canadian

dollar for Alber ta hay or high costs of Washington hay in U.S. dollars. If farmers produce their own feed, then machiner y for plowing, seeding and harvesting, labour costs for milking help and har vesting hay plus, managing the health and safety costs must all go into being accounted as costs. Costs of maintaining good agricultural land is a given. The system in the U.S. dairy “factory type farms” incorporates hundreds of cows in vast herds that often never ever see a blade of real grass. Farm management there uses antibiotic medication and hormone additives injections to blanket control disease prevention, in crowded conditions and to induce increased milk supply to match their “supply and demand” market requirements. Canadian farmers on the other hand, are highly restricted in using drugs for disease prevention and inducing lactation. Monsanto’s product, rBST steroid is used by U.S. dairy producers, therefore to induce more milk production in American cows. At this point, rBST is not allowed in Canada. So if TPP were to be

approved by a vote in Parliament, would this 3.25 per cent increase in dried powdered milk from American dair y cattle be entering the Canadian food market with a payload of antibiotics and growth hormones to bulk up our cheeses, pasta and pizza cheese powders? What we don’t know, could actually cause some problems. This Thanksgiving, I splurged a little bit by buying a local organic turkey from a nearby Bradner farm to feed my family a special dinner. The package wrap tells how these birds have “full access to outdoors, a diet of only certified, organic feed and strictly prohibited use of antibiotics” -extra note- “The use of hormones and steroids in the production of any poultry is illegal in Canada.” I like feeding my family local fresh food, I like supporting local farmers and local industry, I like taking measures to address climate change by reducing the travel footprint that my food takes. I don’t like knowing that there are quite likely devilish details inside the TPP. Wendy Major

Yet our political friends in Ottawa a few short years ago shut down parliament to facilitate asbestos removal, with our tax dollars.

The quote was from an all-candidates meeting, and was regarding the Trans-Pacific Partnership. MacPherson had said that â&#x20AC;&#x153;our imports are outpacing our exports. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re allowing imports to flood our marketplace.â&#x20AC;? Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Donnell contacted The Progress to clear up the error. For the record, her position on the TPP is that it â&#x20AC;&#x153;would subject our laws to a three-man investor tribunal.â&#x20AC;? She adds, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I gave the example that if Canada bans a toxic chemical this tribunal can act for the investor to get damages against Canada.

Flamenco Fusion Dance Spectacular coming to Harrison Hall

Tech N9ne plays at Evergreen Hall on Oct. 15 as part of his Special Effects Canadian Tour.

Tech N9ne returns with Special Effects Sam Bates The Progress Tech N9ne hits the stage once again in Chilliwack at Evergreen Hall on October 15. The Progress caught up with the rapid-fire ‘Chopper’ style rapper while he was having a bite to eat before his performance in Oshawa, Ontario. Tech is joined by Krizz Kaliko and Doug Crawford for the 17-show Special Effects Canadian Tour. And the music never stops with Tech N9ne. The tour launched in Windsor on Sept. 29, where he then also managed to wrap up recording Strangeulation Volume Two, yet another record with Strange Music labelmates. “All these things in my brain,” he laughed over the phone from St. Louis Bar and Grill. “I have so many ideas.” When asked what he has in store for this stop of the Special Effects tour, “I plan to ‘whoa’ everybody who’s in attendance. I plan to blow them away, like I’ve always done,” he said confidently. The fusion of sounds and explosive energy, he said, is second to none. “Every fan that comes to my show leaves satisfied.” And if they hadn’t already, Tech said

they’ll leave eager to delve further into his music. Combined with pre-Canadian dates, Tech and his crew had already been on tour for what he believed had been two weeks. “We lose track of time when we’re out here,” he confessed. But being on tour is where Tech feels at home. “I belong out here. I do this well. I do this perfectly.” The only drawback of touring for Tech, like many artists, is being away from his family. Nevertheless, “we go wherever our fans are,” Tech explained, which means travelling to more and more cities as he grows in the industry. The indie rapper has accomplished a lot throughout his music career, releasing 15 studio albums thus far. His 2015 ‘Special Effects’ release allowed him to work with killer artists from a range of genres. Of many collaborations, the album features Eminem, Corey Taylor from Slipknot, T.I. and Lil Wayne. It was co-produced with Joseph Bishara, who composed the music and appeared as a ‘creature performer’ in recent horror flicks including Insidious, The Conjuring and Annabelle. “Everybody came through on this album.” Tech said that he’s “on the

incline.” His crowds are growing, including more and more young Technicians (meaning fans) who like a good party. The show in Montreal on Oct. 4 was “incredibly hyper” he enthused, and he’s looking for a city to match that level of intensity as he travels west. “The energy [during a show] is crazy monstrous. I feel like I can eat a horse after a show,” he said. But he was totally zen as he spoke with The Progress, gaining a little bit of peace to re-energize for his next performance that night. As Tech’s favourite holiday soon approaches, it didn’t take long to figure out his costume. “For Halloween I’m going to be myself, because somebody booked me for a show that night.” Tech N9ne, who was once labelled as a horrorcore rapper, said that he wishes he was born on the creepy holiday. The interest in all-things-horror is still evident in his dark, yet wildly energetic performance style today. Tickets for the Oct. 15 all-ages show, presented by Where It’s At Entertainment, are available at ticketzone.com or by phone at 604-809-3810. General tickets are $50, VIP tickets are available. Show starts at 7 p.m., doors open at 6 p.m.

The Harrison Festival Society will be presenting the colourful dance performance Viñetas del Mozaico, at Harrison’s Memorial Hall on Saturday, Oct. 24, at 8 p.m. A production of Vancouver’s Mozaico Flamenco Dance Theatre, the show will also feature a special opening solo dance performance by internationally renowned dancer Joel Hanna “Over the years, the Harrison Festival has presented several wonderful flamenco shows,’ says the society’s artistic director Andy Hillhouse. “This will be a seamless presentation that offers a multicultural take on flamenco, which is a much loved, exciting style of Spanish dance that has roots in the Indian subcontinent and North Africa. Viñetas del Mozaico is a unique production that has been an audience hit wherever it has been performed.” Directed by dancer Kasandra “La China,” Viñetas del Mozaico showcases twelve dynamic dance vignettes accompanied by world percussionists. It includes new belly dance/flamenco fusion pieces performed by one of Vancouver’s foremost belly dancers, Ashley Kirkham. The show celebrates virtuosity and expression, through the use of Spanish castanets and zills, Chinese fans and silk veils, Sevillan shawls, and rapid-fire footwork. According to Hillhouse, “I love dance, however we are limited in the styles of dance we can present in this hall, due to the size of the stage. The beauty of flamenco is it is less about moving across space, and more about the intensity, tension, and passion in footwork, body postures and even subtle gestures like changes in hand movements. These can be powerful in more intimate spaces like the Memorial Hall.” Viñetas del Mozaico foregrounds flamenco percussion through the virtuosic cajon (wooden box) playing of Davide Sampaolo from Rome, Italy. The cajon is contrasted in the show with the darbouka drum, the traditional accompaniment for belly dance, played by Vancouver’s Tim Gerwing. The audience will also be treated at the beginning of the evening to a special solo by well known performer Joel Hanna. Known for his athletic and boundary breaking mix-

The Chilliwack Community Ar ts Council presents the 2nd Annual Pottery Bowl Fundraiser. There’s no better way to launch the fall season than to get involved in a charity event that involves delicious soup and a one-of-a kind handmade bowl you get to take home. And for only $20 to participate, these bowls can also serve to enhance your fall culinary décor. The uniqueness of each bowl is a result of the talented work of the local potters and celebrities’ glazing style. The Arts Council has once again partnered with The Chilliwack Bowls of Hope Society. “Last year’s event was a great success and we are thankful to work with the Bowls of Hope Society again this year!” said the Arts Council’s Executive Director, Patti Lawn. “It was fun to also see local personalities work at glazing the pottery. I feel they have gained a new appreciation to what it takes to be a potter. They had fun as a group!” Freshly made soup has been provided by Chilliwack Bowls of Hope Society. To further enhance the ambiance and enrich the experience, there will be music, a silent auction and Greendale Herb and Vine will provide a harvest market. The Pottery Bowl Fundraiser will take place on Oct. 17 at the Art Room, 20-5725 Vedder Rd., from 1 to 4 p.m. Don’t miss this fun and delicious fundraising event! All proceeds will go to support arts & crafts programming at the Art Room, home of the Chilliwack Community Arts Council.

ful presentation, Mixed Bag will astound you with its ability to tackle some of society’s most profound questions while presenting live dance in an innovative and poignant way. This show doesn’t simply comprise three disparate choreographies – from beginning to end, Mixed Bag flows with a theme of interconnectedness, humanity and our role in the universe, and according to Rainbow Dance Theatre’s Artistic Director Valerie Bergman, begins at the perfect point; the universe’s origins. “The first piece presented is named Higgs Boson” Valerie reveals, “and is an artistic reflection on the initial creative spark that began it all. It artistically plays with the strange balance within us of physical abstraction (how we are each just a collection of atomic particles which are constantly interchang-

ing with all else in our environment) and personal construct (that which we call the self), and how each element, the abstract and the personal, are no less real because of the other.” Bold in their embrace of complex subject matter as well as their approach to their art form, Rainbow Dance Theatre’s next piece reflects the delicate development of life on earth through an innovative creative development of their own. “The next piece, Big Bang, is a lovely and whimsical treatment of the evolution of life on earth” Valerie goes on. The creative and cosmic energy of the show’s first half will expand as Rainbow Dance Theatre flow into the show’s incredible climax, with the final piece demonstrating the conscience and message of the show. “Mixed Bag continues humanity’s journey

with a humorous yet poignant look at today’s global community irreparably altered by the developed world’s “disposable” society - a way of life which must be transformed if we are to sustain life as we know it on our planet earth.” Truly bringing the message of this piece to life, Rainbow Dance Theatre transform the stage in the most resourceful of ways – utilizing garbage bags, plastic bottles, and the kind of things that we toss in the trash without thinking about it, the show demonstrates a genuine artistic integrity, bringing its message into the very structure and aesthetic of the choreography. Tickets are $35 for Adults, $32 for Seniors and $30 for Students and are available at The Centre Box Office, visit www.chilliwackculturalcentre.ca or call 604391-SHOW(7469) for more information.

oin the most famous duo in Kansas and take a soaring trip over the rainbow this fall when The Circus of Oz brings a timeless tale with a whole new twist to Chilliwack Cultural Centre! On October 25, 2015, Vancouver’s very own CircusWest will be offering you and your family the opportunity to come along for a journey packed with high-energy thrills and even higher-flying acrobatics - pick up a ticket today and join for an unforgettable family adventure to The Circus of Oz! After an astounding performance of their show Wonderland at The Centre last fall, CircusWest are returning to Chilliwack to

both inspire and entertain you with another of their captivating interpretations of classic stories. And, with a storyline that literally has a character taking flight over a rainbow, there could be no better tale to get the CircusWest treatment than the heartwarming Wizard of Oz! “We wanted to update the original story”, says Artistic Director Jay Nunns “so we found a brand new way to tell it. So we have a lot of flying witches, we have Dorothy flying through the air to go over the rainbow, and we use all the different skills and disciplines from the circus.” The kids will be in awe as the most memorable moments from the original movie take form before their eyes – from Dorothy and Toto befriending the Scarecrow, Tin Man and Cowardly Lion, to taking on the evil witch with the help of a glittering good witch. Yet, it wouldn’t be a CircusWest production without acrobatics, circus arts and a local touch! “Dorothy and Toto will come across a brainy Scarecrow, the loving Tin Woodman, the Brave-butCowardly Lion, and join up with the

Glittering Good Witch Glinda to defeat the Wicked Witch of the Pacific North-West” Nunns goes on. “It really is a combo package - the fantastic plot we all know and love, and a whole bunch of new circus elements. We’ve thrown in unicycles, juggling, aerials, trampoline-wall - we’re telling the story in a new way.” Truly capturing the magic of the well-loved original and invigorating it with a whole new dimension of fun and frolics, The Circus of Oz will offer an astonishing afternoon adventure when it comes to The Centre at 2:00pm on October 25, 2015. Those timeless tales last generations for a reason – they touch every heart they come across, and with CircusWest throwing everything from twists and tumbles to spellbinding aerial artistry into the mix, you can be sure this will be a trip down the Yellow Brick Road the kids will never forget!

Del Barber will be performing at the Tractorgrease Cafe (48710 Chilliwack Lake Road) on Oct. 17 at 7 p.m. Barber grew up in the Canadian prairies, and his fourth album Prairieography is born out of a love for his home, its people and their stories.

The artist behind the redesign at Decades Coffee Club is offering up her skills to the public, and just in time for Christmas. Esther Hoogendoorn of Ease Designs is holding two sets of art classes, one for kids and one for adults, that will bring out anyone’s inner artist. But the classes are also a lesson in being resourceful. Students will learn how to reclaim old items and turn them into something pretty again. The classes run for six weeks, and students can choose four or five projects to complete over that course of time. The classes are being held on Mondays starting Oct. 19, in afternoons and early evenings for kids, and the evenings for adults. For more information, drop in at Decades Coffee Club.

The Nude Posed gallery will run from Oct. 15 to Nov. 21 at The O’Conner Group Art Gallery (formerly the Chilliwack Art Gallery) at 9201 Corbould St. Curated and organized by Mary-Lee Merz and Heinz Klassen, the exhibit explores the undraped human figure through drawing. Produced with a variety of mediums, all drawings were completed by artists who attend the Life Drawing Studio at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre. The opening reception for the exhibit is Saturday, Oct. 17 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Gallery hours are Wednesday through Saturday 12 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Chiefs gain ground with weekend wins

CHIEFS WEEKEND The Chilliwack Chiefs didn’t get a break over the Canadian Thanksgiving weekend, playing three games in three nights. The junior A club started off Friday night with a 6-1 demolition of the sorry Surrey Eagles. Six different Chiefs scored goals at the South Surrey Arena as they laid waste to the Mainland division cellar dwellers. Chilliwack led 2-0 through 20 minutes on goals by Mark Esposito and Jordan Kawaguchi. Dennis Cholowski scored on a power play late in the second period and the Chiefs added three more in the third. Kohen Olischefski, Ryan Roseboom and newcomer Darien Craighead lit the lamp as Chilliwack out-shot the Eagles 38-27. Surrey’s only goal came off the stick of John Wesley midway through the final frame. Aidan Pelino collected the win in the Chilliwack net and was back between the pipes Saturday night. ● Pelino’s Chiefs were overwhelmed by the BCHL front-running

Penticton Vees, falling 5-1 at Prospera Centre. The Vees scored four first period goals and coasted through the next 40 minutes to improve to 10-1-0-0. Dante Fabbro and Easton Brodzinski did the damage in the opening frame, with two goals apiece. Olischefski scored for Chilliwack. With just under eight minutes to go in the game, Chiefs coach Jason Tatarnic pulled Pelino for an extra attacker, trying to start a rally. Penticton’s Scott Conway snuck the puck into the empty net to wrap up the scoring. ● The Chiefs wrapped up the weekend with a big road win over the Langley Rivermen. Chilliwack trailed 2-0 through 40 minutes on goals by Trevor Ayre and Adam Sinclair. But they roared back with four third period goals, escaping with a 4-2 win. Craighead got them started 1:11 into the final frame. Olischefski scored his third goal in as many games to tie it up at 4:33. Mitch Skapski put the Chiefs ahead at 9:09 and Vimal Sukumaran’s empty netter at 19:45 sealed the deal. Pelino stopped 21 of 23 shots. ● The Chiefs come out of the weekend in decent shape. Their record of 5-41-2 through 12 games leaves them tied with the Coquitlam Express for second in the Mainland division

standings. Langley’s first at 7-30-0. The Wenatchee Wild are fourth at 5-2-1-0, with four games in hand on Chilliwack and the Express. The str uggling Prince George Spruce Kings are fifth at 3-7-0-1 and the Eagles drag up the rear at 3-8-0-0. The Chiefs visit Vancouver Island this weekend. Chilliwack’s in Alberni Valley Saturday night to face the Bulldogs (4-6-0-0). They play the Nanaimo Clippers Sunday (7-5-00).

Grizzlies win ugly in season opener The GW Graham senior varsity Grizzlies downed the Robert Bateman Timberwolves 21-14 last Friday in the season opener for both high school squads. GWG quarterback Gabe Olivares was 14 of 26 for 213 yards, with one touchdown and one interception. Baker Douglas reeled in the TD toss on a day when he caught five passes for 103 yards.

Emerson Smith hit the scoresheet with eight receptions and 92 yards. The Grizzly ground game was led by bruisers Von Richardson and Jordon Breuker, each of whom rolled up close to 100 yards. Breuker was also part of a dominant defence led by linebacker Tristan Davis. Davis led the D with six solo tackles plus an interception.

Smith, another of GWG’s two-way stars, had five solo tackles. Defensive backs Ethan Mastin and Spencer Breslin had interceptions. Defensive end Jake Troyan and tackle Jamie Bessette led a relentless pass rush, producing two QB sacks each. “We have a full week of work to get ready for Rick Hansen” said head coach Laurie

Sports

Bombs from the bench

Chilliwack’s Kaitlyn McDonald came off the bench with 11 points, helping the University of the Fraser Valley womens’ basketball squad to a 69-53 win over the Guelph Gryphons Saturday. M c D o n a l d ’ s Cascades were in the Regina for the Cougar Classic preseason tournament. UFV went 0-2 in their first two games, losing to the Saskatchewan Huskies (92-58) and Regina Cougars (86-48). But with McDonald bringing bombs from the bench, the Cascades came back. McDonald didn’t miss a shot, doing three for three from threepoint land and four-forfour overall.

A n o t h e r Chilliwackian, Shayna Cameron, contributed nine points and nine rebounds. But it was a Langley native who had the biggest day. Sydney Williams shot 2-for-21 in the two defeats, but bounced back to hit six three point shots versus Guelph. “Syd was pretty down on herself after the first two games – that’s just how she is,” Cascades head coach Al Tuchscherer said of Williams, who won the 2014 Canada West rookie of the year award while playing for the Thompson Rivers WolfPack and transferred to UFV over the summer. “We had a good talk and tried to simplify things for her today, give her one of two things to think about. She was a different player today, and it was good to see. “It wasn’t just that she was knocking down shots, either – she was very active at the defensive end of the floor. She’s the kind of player

where her motor never stops . . . and that translated to the offensive end of the floor.” The game was tied 30-30 at halftime, but the Cascades locked it down on defence after the break, limiting Guelph to 15.6 per cent shooting the rest of the way. “The girls came out with a lot of determination today,” Tuchscherer said. “They really weren’t happy with the first two days of the tournament, and they played a real solid 40 minutes today. They really wanted to play harder – they addressed some things last night, and they brought it this morning. It was fantastic to see that. “It was a pretty important result for us,” he added. “I thought we showed a lot of resilience today, and that’ll serve us well.” Up next for the Cascades is an exhibition game at home vs. the Vancouver Island University Mariners next Friday, Oct. 16 at 6 p.m.
