New bylaw to ban camping in three parks Homeless will be allowed to set up tents in Jubilee Park Tyler OLSEN Abbotsford News

Homeless campers will be banned from three city parks, as well as playgrounds, sports fields and other infrastructure, under a new bylaw that will replace one ruled unconstitutional by a Supreme Court justice last year.

Mayor Henry Braun said the new parks bylaw – which was given three readings at Monday’s council meeting – aims to balance the public interest with the concerns raised by Justice Christopher Hinkson, who ruled last fall that the city could not outright prohibit homeless men and women who have nowhere else to go from setting up tents on city land.

The new bylaw allows homeless people to set up a “temporary shelter” in a park between the hours of 7 p.m. and 9 a.m., provided there is “no accessible shelter accommodation available in the city.” But the bylaw maintains the camping ban in Abbotsford’s three city-wide Continued on A3

A tribute to ancestors’ struggle Hundreds attended Friday’s grand opening of a museum in Abbotsford dedicated to the history of the Mennonite people and their long struggle to find a homeland where they could practice their religion. The Mennonite Heritage Museum features a permanent exhibition on the history of the Mennonite period, a temporary exhibition area, and space for the Mennonite Historical Society of BC, which has collected various valuable historical records. The exhibition currently includes a visual tribute to Mennonite women, with panels telling dozens of stories, including that of the aunt of Peter Redekop. He conceived, financed and built the museum. More than 60 years ago, Peter Redekop

was just a young boy as his family fled war-ravaged Europe for Canada. On Friday, Redekop, now a prominent local developer, was joined by family members, dignitaries including Premier Christy Clark, and many others during the museum’s opening. “I’m just elated, I’m excited,” he said following the ribbon-cutting. Redekop said it is important for Mennonites to see what their ancestors went through to get to the Fraser Valley.

with homeless activists at a recent meeting of the BC/Yukon Association of Drug War Survivors (DWS) in Abbotsford. He said there’s “talk already” about keeping the shelter open past the May date, but that it would require additional funding. Operating funds from now until May have already been promised by BC Housing, but anything beyond that is uncertain. Williams has said the organization would be interested in continuing to provide aid at the facility, whatever form it may take. Many from the city’s homelessness committee have voiced support for the Riverside building being used for some kind of daytime aid, even if funding for beds ends in the spring. The facility is running on $450,000 in operating funds from BC Housing. Made of six construction trailers on a city-owned lot, it cost about $750,000 in city funds to construct. Current plans are to reopen it next winter after a spring shutdown.

“It’s very important. Our faith story started in 1520 and we were persecuted in Holland, then in Prussia, then we got to Ukraine and Russia. And now we came here to North America and we have religious freedom, and we want to tell our kids what we all endured for our faith, and that’s so important.” The museum is located on the east side of Clearbrook Road just south of Highway 1 and is open to the public.

homes – has filed a development application as part of plans to build a large new plant on Clearbrook Road. Mayor Henry Braun said the city had seen a significant increase in business inquiries over the past year. And while Abbotsford has more industrial land than many Lower Mainland municipalities, Braun said those lands set aside more than 10 years ago in the City in the Country Plan are quickly disappearing. “In another year, I think they will almost be built out.” Braun said there are a few lots that might be suitable for a plant the size that Molson is seeking to build. However,

access to rail may prove challenging. City staff have fielded several other inquiries regarding a range of business proposals, including a high-tech incubator, a galvanizing plant, a bio-energy facility, and a education technology company looking for space. Meanwhile, the report notes that the city saw a dramatic spike in the number of films being shot over 2015. More than 25 films were shot over a total of 105 days in 2015, according to the report. The number of movies filmed more than doubled, while the number of filming days rose by 98 per cent.

Two more charged in murder plot to kill Bacons Black Press

Two more alleged UN Gang members are now charged with conspiring to murder the Bacon brothers of Abbotsford and their Red Scorpion gang associates during what police say was an all-out gang war in 2008-09. The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team announced the murder conspiracy charges against 32-year-old Troy Tran, of Vancouver, and another unnamed 31-year-old man, whose identify has been withheld. They’re accused of plotting with other UN gangsters to take out a series of ri-

vals, including the Red Scorpions’ Kevin LeClair, killed at a grocery store parking lot in Langley in 2009, and Jonathan Barber, slain in Burnaby in 2008 by mistake because he was installing a stereo in a car owned by a Bacon brother. The two men are also charged with conspiring to murder the three leaders of the opposing gang – Jonathan, Jarrod and Jamie Bacon. The latest arrests came after police raided 13 locations across the Lower Mainland and in Calgary Jan. 22, seizing a stolen 9mm handgun, drugs and trafficking equipment. Police have now laid murder conspiracy charges against seven people in the

CER CERTIFIED

ongoing investigation. IHIT officials say there have been 16 convictions so far against members of the UN Gang in connection with the series of shootings, attempted murders and murders across the Lower Mainland in 2008 and 2009 that prosecutors have described as a ruthless “human safari” that put the public at great risk. A Canada-wide warrant remains in effect for Conor D’Monte, the alleged leader of the UN Gang, on similar murder conspiracy charges. Jonathan Bacon was killed in 2011. His two brothers are in jail awaiting trial on various charges.

Where there is a Will:

Dependent Children. Daniel Grice

Providing for one’s family before and after death is a challenge we face as parents. For families with adult children with disabilities or challenges managing money, planning for their children’s future brings added concerns. Estate planning for unique families entails more than dividing up assets on death. Special measures can protect their dependents’ inheritances from predators, prevent benefit claw backs, and manage lifetime needs. Fortunately, for parents (or grandparents), the law allows you to set up a testamentary trust in their Will. A testamentary trust is a legal arrangement where the executor or a trustee has the discretion when to pay a beneficiary. The trustees could pay expenses not covered by government funding, and reinvest income. Most wills have some form of trust, generally for minors. Depending on the circumstances of a child or grandchild, a trust may pay out a specified age, or sprinkle

periodic payments. As an estate planning lawyer, I often advise clients to think carefully about who will be the trustee of their child’s trust. How old will the trustee be when the dependent gets older? Some families will name more than one trustee, either jointly or as a backup. The trustee can hire professions as well, including lawyers, tax accountants, and investment advisers. The second worry parents have is what if they become incapable of caring for their dependents. In order to allow someone else to financially provide for your children, your lawyer can modify a standard power of attorney to allow your money to support an adult child. Fortunately for disabled individuals and their families, the provincial government recently amended rules for disabled benefits, allowing trusts to pay out more annual income, and disabled individuals to own more assets outside a trust. Daniel Grice is an estate planning lawyer at Integra Law Group.

Strippers banned Too bad the business didn’t check the by laws before booking the show. Hilda Tuin-Car Everyone is blaming it on the religious people in town. Hate to point this out but plenty of non-religious people don’t support strippers. Leah Carr There are so many old bylaws that Abbotsford needs to review and get rid of. Dennis Roy The other problem is that we already have issues getting big acts/performances to come to Abby, yet we are turning away a sold-out show? We need to re-do those bylaws!

letters True value of land in income generated

I AMAAMAZED! WHAT DIFFERENCE

So Kinder Morgan thinks it should compensate farmers an amount equal only to the value of the land they require the use of. They must realize that the true value of the land to its owner is the income it generates, just as the value of a section of pipe is determined not by its cost but by the amount of oil it carries, and therefore profit. The company may be tempted to argue that the economic prosperity brought by their proposed pipeline exceeds that of a few hectares of farm land, but both oil and land are non-renewable (we can’t make more of either) and ultimately the food the land can produce is the more valuable resource. Kinder Morgan’s attitude toward farmland should be one that ensures that neither potential crop production nor a farmer’s ability to produce crops is diminished. Ken Summers

by Eric Coble, The Giver is an adaptation of Lowry’s novel for young people, which won the 1994 Newbery Medal and sold more than 10 million copies. In a futuristic, utopian society where there is no war or misery and each citizen is assigned their role in the community by the elders, young Jonas is surprised to learn that he has been chosen to receive special training from The Giver, the keeper of all memories of true joy and pain. As Jonas begins his education, the darker hypocrisies of his perfect world are brought to light, and he is faced with a decision that could risk all he has, including his own life. This adaption explores what it means to grow up and to be human in an imperfect world. “We’re maximizing the technical capabilities of the Abbotsford Arts Centre to bring this intimate story to life,” said Ken Hildebrandt, Gallery 7 Theatre’s executive/artistic director. Performing the role of young Jonas is Cameron McKerchar, who has appeared in Gallery 7 productions of The Hiding Place and Fiddler on the Roof. The Giver, the wise old man and mentor, will be played by Jay Danziger, a veteran actor of stage and film. Jonas’ mother and father are played by Melissa Franson and newcomer Marco Darvasi. Jonas’ younger sister, Lily, will be played by Kaitlyn Naayer, also making her first appearance at Gallery 7 Theatre. Asher, Jonas’ best friend, will be played by Evan Rachwalski, and Fiona will be played by Emily Smith. Show times are 7:30 p.m. on Jan. 29 and 30 and Feb. 3-6, with discount matinees at 2 p.m. on Jan. 30 and Feb. 6. Tickets are $25 for adults, $20 for students and seniors, and $15 for kids 12 and under. Matinees are $20 general and $15 for kids. They are available at House of James (2743 Emerson St.), by phone at 1-800-665-8828 or online at gallery7theatre. com.

The Valley Concert Society presents the St. Lawrence String Quartet (SLSQ) on Saturday, Jan. 30. The group performs from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. at Matsqui Centennial Auditorium, 32315 South Fraser Way. A pre-concert talk in the foyer takes place at 6:50 p.m. One of Canada’s most highly regarded chamber ensembles, the SLSQ has gained recognition for its outstanding performances and recordings. The group won a Juno Award and a Preis der Deutsches Schallplaten Kritik for the recording of quartets by Robert Schumann. The second half of the program on Saturday will consist of one of those Schumann quartets, the String Quartet No. 3 in A Major. The SLSQ is also strongly committed to musical education. They have held residences in prestigious schools of music, including the Juilliard School, and universities such as Yale. They are currently in residence at Stanford University in California. In keeping with this desire to help people understand music better, they will present a unique program called Haydn Discovery in the first half of the concert. Franz Joseph Haydn is known as the Father of the String Quartet. The players of the SLSQ will “unpack” Haydn’s String Quartet No. 23 in F Minor, examining it from various perspectives and exploring its magic, before playing it in its entirety. The quartet consists of Geoff Nuttall and Owen Dalby on violin, Lesley Robertson on viola and Christopher Costanza on cello. Tickets are $28 adults/seniors and $15 for seniors. They are available online at valleyconcertsociety.com or by calling 604-2893377.

Abbotsford’s Cory, Megan, Morgan and Nancy Kornicki and Connie Kug will join 400 others on Feb. 21 to fight for clean air by climbing one of Vancouver’s tallest buildings. If that’s not enough of a challenge, the BC Lung Association has introduced a new Fight and Flight Challenge, an obstacle course designed to test participants’ strength, stamina and lungs, culminating with 48 storeys of intense stair-climbing. The Kornickis and Kug, long-time supporters of the BC Lung Association, have been involved with Climb the Wall: The Stairclimb for Clean Air for four years. “It’s such a fun event with great people,” Cory said. “Our first year, we were inspired to participate in support of a friend with lung failure. Since then our team has continued to grow, and this event has become a family tradition that we look forward to all year.” All funds raised at the event go to lung health research, as well as patient support, advocacy, and education. According to the Lung Association, one in five British Columbians has lung disease. For more information or to register, visit stairclimb.ca or call the BC Lung Association at 604-731-LUNG (5864).

Ben LYPKA Abbotsford News

The battle for first place in the Pacific Junior Hockey League’s Harold Brittain conference needed extra time to be decided on Friday. It took double overtime for the Mission City Outlaws to defeat the Abbotsford Pilots 7-6, and create a tiny sliver of separation atop the standings. The goals came early and often from both teams, as Pilots captain Joel Balzer opened the scoring 53 seconds into action, but Mission tied the game just over a minute later. Abbotsford forward Mateo Toledo took the lead back at 3:29 of the first period, only for the Outlaws to answer again just 17 seconds later. Mission added a late goal to escape the first period with a 3-2 lead. After the Pilots fell behind 4-2, Dryden Michaud and Mitchell Plevy scored in the second period to draw even. Plevy scored again to open the third , but Mission potted a pair to grab the lead back. Francis Bamford tied the game at six and sent the game to overtime, and nothing was solved in fouron-four portion of the extra frame. The teams then played three-onthree, with Mission scoring to win the game. Pilots head coach Jim Cowden said he needs better goaltending from Jacob Crawford, who made 35 saves in the loss. “I thought we were the quicker team out there and if it wasn’t for our goaltending today it would have been no contest,” he said. “Crawford didn’t have a great night, but it was fine because the guys battled back for him. It felt like we had to come from behind almost the whole game.” Mission players stormed the ice and celebrated with game-winning goal scorer Bryce Pisiak after the win. Cowden said there still is a lot of hockey left in the

QUESTION: What is Thermafrax™?

ANSWER:

BEN LYPKA Abbotsford News

Pilots forward Sean Olson pushes the puck forward during PJHL action on Friday. PJHL. “They looked like they had just won the Stanley Cup,” he joked. “At the end of the day we’re one point behind them and have an easier schedule the rest of the way.” With only five games left in the season, Cowden said he doesn’t really care who the Pilots match up with in round one. “As long as we’re playing well it doesn’t

matter whether we come in first, second, third, or fourth,” he said. “We were probably about 20 points behind Mission a few months ago, and a lot of people wrote us off, but we’ve caught up to them.” He said he’d actually like to play the Outlaws in the first round – a match-up that will not happen. “We match up well against them. They’ve

only ever beat us in overtime and we beat them the other three times we played.” Abbotsford sits three points behind the Outlaws for first place, but have one game in hand. The Pilots travel to Langley to play the Knights on Thursday, and then host the Port Moody Panthers on Friday. Face-off is set for the MSA Arena at 7:30 p.m.

Thermafrax™ treatment is a revolutionary combination of 2 gold standard treatments; Thermage™ and Fraxel™. This treatment produces skin tightening plus skin rejuvenating. Doing them together creates even better results! These are non- surgical treatments and they help correct the most significant signs of aging: sagging skin, wrinkles, skin texture and pigmentation. The Thermage™ portion of the treatment uses radio frequency to safely heat the deeper layers of our skin which in turn stimulates existing collagen. The Fraxel™ laser uses pinpoint laser beams that penetrate beneath the skins surface to eliminate damaged skin cells and stimulates the body’s natural healing process. – Dr. Marianna Snyman

Deanna Esau and Sarah Rozendal led the way with 13 points apiece, while Kaler grabbed a teamhigh seven rebounds.

ABBOTSFORD 2016 BC SUMMER GAMES

JULY 21-24 Rise above. Reach beyond.

Great turnout at Community Awarness Event The countdown for the Abbotsford 2016 BC Summer Games, and all the organizers for January 23 were set to get the word out in a big way. Officials put together a Community Awareness Event with the goal being to increase the awareness base of the Games event and attract volunteers. Event president Steve Carlton said the events took over two main local locations, and also had five smaller sites set up around Abbotsford. The Abbotsford Recreation Centre and Matsqui Recreation Centre were the primary sites for the Community Awareness Event, with food, refreshments and Blackwood 10-$100 give card giveaways from 1 to 4 p.m. at both locations. Swims and skates were also offered for $2 on that afternoon. “Instead of having a ceremony and inviting the public to hear us talk, we went out into the public and met them where they were,” Carlton said. “ARC and MRC were our primary sites and the city dropped regular price admissions to a

Carlton said the volunteer base for the event is solid, but another 2,500 people are needed in advance of the Games. “We’re on track for volunteers and we’ve had a lot of people sign up, but we’re waiting for the flood of volunteers to come, which we anticipate will come after that Community Awareness Event and the Torchlighting Ceremony later this year,” he said. “The community has responded really well, and we’ve brought on many local businesses and organizations as sponsors. It’s been a wonderful response so far.” The next big event for the Games is the Torchlighting Ceremony, which occurs at the Matsqui Auditorium on April 13.

WINDECKER

Errol

Ray

May 5, 1953 ~ January 2, 2016

Ray Windecker peacefully passed away while surrounded by family on the evening of January 19, 2016, at the age of 68. Born in Manitoba, he grew up on Vancouver Island with his three brothers, moving to Abbotsford in 1974 with his wife Debbie to take teaching positions after graduating from UVIC. Ray was a devoted teacher, and loving husband and father, doing everything he could to make his family happy, even while he battled illness for almost 20 years. Although his passing was fairly sudden, his family is content knowing that Ray is at peace and no longer in pain. Ray will be in his family’s hearts forever, survived by his devoted wife of 41 years Debbie; loving children Danielle and Jeffrey; sons-in-law Grant and Al; daughter-in-law Audrey; cherished granddaughters Avery and Emerson; and three brothers Allen, Billy and Terry. A private celebration of Ray’s life will be held for family and friends. Online condolences to the family may be made at:

Errol was born in Pieta, Malta and moved to Canada when he was 2 years old. He has lived in BC for the last 40 years. Errol will be sadly missed by his wife Charlene, children Holly, Colleen, Ben, Cory, Kathy, one brother Derek and two sisters Yvonne and Vivian. Celebration of Life will be held at the Best Western Regency Conference Center, Sunday, January 31st from 2:00 to 4:00 pm.

Pamela (Lindsay) Pam passed away peacefully January 15th, 2016 with her husband Casey, daughter Sarah, and son Matt at her side.

OBITUARIES

GOETZKE Marianne Elisabeth (Götzke) Marianne Goetzke died peacefully at Zion Park Manor, Cloverdale, January 19, 2016. She will be missed by the family she loved, by her friends, and remembered at Bethel Mennonite Church, where she was an active member for nearly 60 years. Her family includes 5 children, 10 grandchildren and 10 greatgrandchildren: Reimar Goetzke & Beverly Short (Lyris ShortGoetzke & Eric Stutzman-Calum, Myelle; Seth Goetzke), Ute Goetzke (Jen & Mark Goerzen-Gabriel, Gus, Piper; Rena & Matt Siddall), Bodo and Sharon Goetzke (Larissa & Jeff Neale-Oliver; Vanessa Goetzke; Natasha & Tyrell Mara-Olia), Lissa and Bill Decker (Brad Decker; Jonathan Decker; Ashley & Jayeson WallMadeline, Lincoln, Beckett), Helga Goetzke. Marianne was born May 2, 1923 in Neuhof, East Prussia and baptized in the AdligPokraken Mennoniten Gemeinde. She enjoyed school, especially mathematics. She and Otto Ernst Goetzke married in 1950 and with their first two children emigrated to Canada in 1952. The wildlife around Westwold made the walk to school precarious for the children so Otto left his mill job for a little farm in Aldergrove, 1954. In 1961 they moved onto a larger farm where they raised strawberries and laying hens. Marianne worked on the farm while Otto often did seasonal work at a tannery or fish cannery. Marianne showed her deep faith through action rather than word, ministering to her church together with Otto from 1980 to 1989 as a deacon. Her generosity continued with many gifts from her big garden, from her kitchen, and treats of Christmas and birthday chocolates. People tell of her bursting into a beaming smile that lit up her face. One couldn’t guess what would make her laugh, but her laughter would make people grin. The celebration of Marianne’s life will be held at Bethel Mennonite Church, 24687-56 Ave., Langley, 11:00 am, February 01, 2016. In lieu of flowers, her family requests donations to MCC BC. “Goodness and love unfailing will follow me all the days of my life.” Ps. 23:6 Online condolences to the family may be made to:
