A RISING CHORUS

List of those opposed to Aevitas waste recycling plant grows BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

hilliwack Mayor Sharon Gaetz and all six city councillors managed to shut out the growing din of opposition to hazardous waste recycling on the shores of the Fraser River on Tuesday. Approximately 30 people attended the afternoon portion of Tuesday’s meeting where a rezoning bylaw to allow for the facility was unanimously given fourth reading—essentially a legislative formality—by council. Opposition to the location—between 100 and 200 metres away from the Fraser River on a Cannor Road property in the Cattermole Lands—has

Paying the price for crime It’s not only jail time criminals have to fear BY CORNELIA NAYLOR cnaylor@chilliwacktimes.com

hilliwack RCMP are hailing the effectiveness of civil forfeiture as a crime-fighting tool just as B.C.’s civil forfeiture program has come under fire. L a s t m o nt h, l o c a l Mo u nt i e s announced the seizure and sale of a $480,000 Majuba Hill Road property by the province’s Civil Forfeiture Office (CFO) after allegations it had been used as a marijuana grow operation for some time before EB IRST Aug. 10, 2011. “Civil forfeitures First reported on are a very effective chilliwacktimes.com tool to combat criminal activity,” RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Len vanNieuwenhuizen stated in a Jan. 16 press release. “It is a tool that our Crime Reduction Unit will make more use of when criminal forfeiture is not available.” According to documents filed in B.C. Supreme Court, police searched 41848 Majuba Hill Rd., owned by then Abbotsford resident Randell Konschuh, in 2011. They found Konschuh’s brother, Brent, along with 1,070 pot plants “in various stages of growth,” 2.5 kilograms of drying bud, a small quantity of hash, a hydro bypass other other marijuana growing and harvesting equipment. The brothers were charged with theft of electricity, production of a controlled substance and possession

Court decision could affect EFI classes BY CORNELIA NAYLOR cnaylor@chilliwacktimes.com

T RCMP want to know why cheerleader was approached by woman Chilliwack RCMP have released a sketch of a woman involved in a suspicious stranger incident at a Heritage Park cheerleading competition last month. Police say a youth participant at the Jan. 11 event was approached by a woman, who asked her if she knew where her mother was. When the cheerleader said “no,” the woman asked her if she wanted to come with her in the car to drive around and find her mother. The participant said “no,” and the woman left. “No harm came to anyone in this incident” RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Len vanNieuwenhuizen said in a press release Monday. “We would like to clarify this person’s intentions.” The woman is now a person of interest investigators would like to speak with, vanNieuwenhuizen said. ◗ Anyone with information that would identify the woman is asked to contact Chilliwack RCMP at 604792-4611 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

he good news that no student will be turned away from the Chilliwack school district’s new early French immersion program next year might be premature in light of a recent B.C. Supreme Court ruling restoring teachers’ bargaining rights around class size and composition, says the Chilliwack Teachers’ Association.

But Chilliwack Teachers’ Association president Clint Johnston told the school board Tuesday it had better have a contingency plan.

He just wants to die in our country Living in a Kafkaesque nightmare BY CORNELIA NAYLOR cnaylor@chilliwacktimes.com

Chilliwack woman is pleading with health care officials to let her dying partner stay in Chilliwack instead of sending him to a hospital in Bellingham. Annie Dayport-Tucker’s life since November reads like a Kafkaesque nightmare. Before November, she and Darl Tucker, an American citizen, had been together for five years, living in Chilliwack. Planning to move to Canada permanently, Darl applied for permanent residency three and a half years ago. While the couple waited for it to be granted, they made do as best they could financially since Darl wasn’t allowed to work in Canada and Annie, who has MS and uses a wheelchair, is on disability. Staff and volunteers at the Reach Gallery in Abbotsford got to know the pair after Darl, a pianist, played at some of the gallery’s openings. “They’re such a lovely couple,” Reach volunteeer and operations manager Donna Dempsey told the Times. “When they arrived, he would lift her out of the car and put her in the wheelchair and bring her in.” But the couple’s lives were rocked in November, when Darl went to Emergency in Chilliwack for what they

thought was as minor stroke. A CT scan revealed a large tumour on the right side of his brain. “He was supposed to be up for 15 minutes and he didn’t come back for 45 minutes, and I knew something was wrong,” Annie told the Times. As terrifying as the news was, the couple’s nightmare didn’t really begin until a week later when they spoke to a neurosurgeon at Royal Columbian Hospital a week later. When hospital officials learned Darl was an American citizen and didn’t have B.C. medical, Annie said they confronted the couple in the Emergency waiting room. “He came to meet us, not in a cubby, not in a curtained area, not in a separate area, but right in the middle of the Emergency waiting room with casts of thousands,” Annie said of the neurosurgeon. “The financial people came there, everybody came there and talked about everything, our private information, all in front of everybody.” The neurosurgeon then discussed the particulars of Darl’s case, Annie said, including the fact that the tumour was would be terminal even with surgery and that the procedure would likely leave him paralyzed. “Darl was in shock,” Annie said. The couple left and returned to Chilliwack, with Darl saying he needed See HEALTH, Page 23

OPTOMETRIST

Critical of pipeline process BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

ith a week to go to sign up as a participant in the National Energy Board (NEB) hearings into Kinder Morgan’s proposed pipeline expansion, groups opposed to the project held an information session in Chilliwack. ForestEthics Advocacy and PIPE UP Network organized the session at the Chilliwack campus of the University of the Fraser Valley. Kinder Morgan filed its application with the NEB in December for the $5.4 billion, 1,150-kilometre oil pipeline twinning project. The project would increase the 60-year-old Trans Mountain pipeline’s capacity from 300,000 barrels per day (bpd) to 890,000 bpd. “Residents in Chilliwack and other communities within the Fraser Valley Regional District have expressed concerns about the possibility of a route through the Cheam Lake Wetlands,” said Michael Hale, a Chilliwack resident and member of PIPE

UP. “Many are interested in making comments. The pipeline route is also near several schools in the Lower Mainland. I’m sure that the NEB would want to hear the views of these residents, so the intent of these sessions is to make it easier for people to voice their opinions.” Critics of the pipeline have criticized how the public hearing process has changed since Enbridge Northern Gateway. Despite the voluminous opposition to Northern Gateway, the Joint Review Panel gave the pipeline the go-ahead, with conditions. But Kinder Morgan will have no such opposition as the new rules implemented by the Conservative government mean only those “directly affected” by the project can participate. After so many people expressed opinions on Northern Gateway, the federal government decided a crackdown was needed. Before the hearings were even completed, in an open letter on Jan. 9, 2012, Minister of Natural Resources Joe Oliver

said “foreign special interest groups” were funding special interest groups “to hijack our regulatory system to achieve their radical ideological agenda.” Now, anyone who wants to participate has to sign up for a government user ID or sign in through a financial institution and then complete an online application form or get a hard copy. The deadline to apply is Feb. 12. “Everyone in Southwestern B.C. is potentially affected by this pipeline proposal, yet it is much more difficult for residents to speak about how it affects them,” PIPE UP member Lynn Perrin said. “Residents can no longer make oral statements as they did in the review of Sumas Energy 2, 10 years ago, or in the more recent review of the Northern Gateway pipeline proposal.” On Feb. 6 there is a meeting at the Ft. Langley Community Hall, 9167 Glover Rd., Fort Langley, from 6 to 8 p.m. (Note: the hall will be open from 2 p.m. on for people who wish to drop in.)

Life in prison for Allgood BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

eorge Mitchell Allgood was sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for 25 years for the murder of his former girlfriend Susan Reinhardt, who was also the mother of his son. Allgood, known by many people in Chilliwack as Reno Trevor Hogg, was found guilty Monday of the July 15, 2006 first-degree murder of Susan Reinhardt and attempted murder of David Ristow. Justice Grant Currie also found Allgood guilty of the attempted murder of Reinhardt’s partner, David Ristow. Currie announced his sentence for Allgood on Friday in Saskatoon Court of Queen’s Bench. In addition to his life sentence for the murder, Allgood was sentenced to 25 years—to be served concurrently—for the attempted murder of Ristow. Victim impact statements from Reinhardt’s mother and father, who now have custody of Reinhardt’s son, were read by the crown prosecutor. Court heard that the boy has been hospitalized twice with post-traumatic stress disorder. When he goes to bed, he often fears that he and his grandparents will be shot. A Chilliwack man fooled by Allgood for years is happy the killer is finally going to jail. During the verdict in court, Allgood interrupted Currie and said,

“I didn’t do it.” He also told one of the officers in the courtroom, “You’re a liar and you know you’re a liar, you falsified information like that.” But Wayne (who prefers that his last name not be used) tells the Times that it is Allgood who was the liar. “With a man like that you would never know what he would do if he was found not guilty and allowed to walk the streets as a free man. Now I know my family will be safe . . . . The lesson from this is make sure you really know who you let into your circle of friends for this man fooled all of us who he met.” At one time, Allgood worked at Sto:lo Nation indirectly under the oversight of former Mission mayor James Atebe. Before Steven and Gwen Point were the Lieutenant Governor and Chatelaine of British Columbia, Allgood worked with Gwen and others on powwows. Through Sto:lo Nation Allgood worked with ICBC road safety co-ordinator and retired RCMP officer Mike Weightman making a road safety DVD and on powwow sponsorship. And it was at Sto:lo Nation where he met Reinhardt who became his girlfriend and the mother of his child. While all those people knew him as “Trevor,” the real Allgood is an American citizen who, 30 years ago, tied up a 71-year-old man in his own home and beat him to

death with a shovel in Baltimore, Md. He pleaded guilty in October 1984 and was sentenced to 20 years. He later received an even longer sentence but questions remained about how long he spent in jail, who the real Reno Trevor Hogg is, and how he entered Canada. “My only regret that this man was not caught getting into Canada and that the RCMP should have told me that this man was on their radar even when he was living in my house,” Wayne said. Allgood’s eventual undoing was the classic Mr. Big sting, where an undercover officer acting as a member of a fake criminal organization gets the suspect to admit to serious crimes to gain trust. There police learned that Allgood used a 12-gauge shotgun to shoot Reinhardt and Ristow as they lay in bed sleeping in their Saskatoon home. Wayne is angry the RCMP did not warn him about Allgood and he feels his family was used. “I firmly believe they used our family so they could keep an eye on him while they set up their sting.” At closing arguments in October, defence lawyer Morris Bodnar had argued Allgood made up the story because he believed it’s what Mr. Big wanted to hear, to allow Allgood to stay in the organization after questions came up about the case.

Liz and Frank never missed a beat… And now they’re ready for the next step. They took their first whirl around the dance floor over 50 years ago and have been kicking up their heels ever since. When they started looking for retirement living options, they were pleased to find out that Chartwell Retirement Residences offers active lifestyle programs, with the flexibility and choice to help with changing care needs in the future. Until that time, they’ll continue to follow where the music leads in their new Chartwell home.

CCNA BLUE RIBBON

ctivists in British Columbia have responded to the National Energy Board’s (NEB) approval of the Northern Gateway oil pipeline with threats of illegal activism reminiscent of the 1990s. Greenpeace spokesman Mike Hudema, for example, said his group will “do what it takes” to ensure the pipeline is never built (and he specifically mentioned civil disobedience). Given the nature of the NEB’s process, such civil disobedience would be inappropriate, and detrimental to society. It would overturn the assumption that people are free to engage in lawful commerce if they obey the rules, without an endless process of protests, lawsuits, and smear campaigns. Others, however, disagree. One Vancouver writer has argued that potential civil disobedience against the oil pipeline is akin to historical protests in favour of female suffrage, slavery, indentured servitude and against clear-cutting forests. Civil disobedience has an honourable history; the question is whether a particular group on a particular matter is justified in such actions. Such steps are, after all, violations of the law, whether property rights, trespassing, and so on. Where people’s rights are systematically violated, where they are denied recourse to the courts, or to their elected representatives, the case for civil disobedience is clear. But the Northern Gateway Pipeline

FRASER INSTITUTE

Be Our Guest proposal does not represent such a violation, and there has already been a rather extensive process of discussion and consultation. The consultation and regulatory process conducted by the National Energy Board spanned four years, cost some $500 million, involved 180 days of hearings, worked through 9,400 submitted letters and took oral testimony from nearly 1,200 people. That process may not have been perfect but even perfection would not have satisfied those opposing the pipeline. They are not interested in whether Northern Gateway is safe or not, or economically helpful to Canada; they oppose it, period. Threatened civil disobedience over Northern Gateway rather trivializes the idea of civil disobedience. Another pipeline is hardly an existential threat to Canada’s (or B.C.’s) environment, much less anyone’s civil rights. Already, 825,000 kilometres of pipelines criss-cross Canada, with about 40,000 km in British Columbia (as of 2011). Another 1,200 km is hardly earth-shattering. Then there is another other argument made by some activists: that

civil disobedience in the early 1990s against the forest industry did not collapse B.C.’s economy, so neither will it this time. But economies need not collapse to harm some people and kill off opportunities for others. Consider one example, the 1990s-era decision to ban mining in the Tatshenshini-Alsek region of northern B.C.—the Windy Craggy deposit, a claim owned by Geddes Resources. The mine potential (in 1992 estimates) of $15 billion in copper, silver and gold extraction was at stake, with 500 direct jobs then valued at $78,000 each annually, along with another 1,500 indirect jobs. Rather than accept a mine proposal that amounted to 1,100 square km out of 958,000 square km in total —barely more than one-10th of one per cent of the Tatshenshini-Alsek region—a 1993 decision by the provincial government killed off the potential mine. Tourism jobs could have co-existed with mining jobs in the Tatshenshini; instead, the current tourism potential in a remote corner of the province has not and never will match the high-paying jobs of the long-scuttled $15 billion mine ($22 billion in current dollars). This absolutist positioning is an ongoing problem in Canada. In his 2000 book on the conflict in B.C.’s forests in the 1990s, then-UBC Professor William Stanbury noted the vandalism, sabotage, ignored court See BE OUR GUEST, Page 24

iberal leader Justin Trudeau surprised everyone last week—including most of his own party—by removing all the Liberal senators from his caucus and making them all independent. Trudeau declared that from now on the only way to be a part of the Liberal caucus is to be put there by the people of Canada. Of course we all know the struggles facing the archaic Canadian Senate in the past year—can we ever forget about the expense scandal? If Trudeau actually thought he would make changes for the better when he announced this decision, he should be applauded for his efforts. However, it’s hard to view the move as anything more than a publicity stunt and political suicide for Trudeau within his own party. Affected Liberal senators were asked their opinion on the decision. They all supported their former leader and said being labelled as Independents certainly wouldn’t stop them from thinking or acting like Liberals. Our point exactly—what difference does it make if Trudeau declares his senators independent now? They will always be affiliated with the party that appointed them. Trudeau also said if he were prime minister he would task a non-elected, independent body to appoint independent, still non-elected senators. What? Not that current Prime Minister Stephen Harper has been any better at addressing senate reform. It will be interesting to see what Harper’s next move will be to counter Trudeau’s ambitious leap forward to take the country’s top job.

BCTF judgment means more than most will know

Editor: With regards to the recent award to the BCTF of $2 million, and the right now of teachers to negotiate their classroom sizes, and most importantly the recent resignation of one of our local teachers due to class size, I want my fellow residents of Chilliwack/Sardis to realize just how insignificant the award and the new “right” are to teachers in today’s classroom. As the parent of a disabled student who was able to benefit from the wonderful Learning Centre at Chilliwack senior secondary (CSS) that then comprised three exceptional support staff (Larry Weiss, Scott Bridge and Doug Fraser), the parent of a gifted student, and being a teacher myself, I can appreciate the efforts teachers and staff go to every day to guide our children. As a teacher myself, now retired, I know that the average classroom consists of close to 30 students (and sometimes more) at times. These would include your average, exceptional and struggling student, your disabled student (anything from dyslexia to autism to fetal alcohol syndrome, etc. now without much classroom support or TAs) and a couple of non-English speaking

The teacher is expected to follow a government assigned curriculum and hope to pass these students by the end of the course. On top of that class time, they have other duties, supervising, coaching, mentoring, marking, planning, etc. The Learning Centre at CSS now comprises one full-time staff member—the super-talented Shirley Dorish who now does the job that three staff members once did before her arrival. Some excellent programs, like the APPLE program for students who were “borderline” in needing a little bit of additional help to suc-

ceed, have been cancelled and other much needed groups like the Special Needs Committee that was once headed by Mary-Ann Smirle is now no more. There are times when I find the fighting between the BCTF and the government over teacher’s wages/ rights to be very childish and unproductive. However, if you really know your school and your teachers, and especially your kids, you know they deserve much more than they are getting. They spend more time with our children, raising them to be what they will be in the future, than we do ourselves. I would much rather see my tax dollars go to improving the situation in the classroom than, say,

Shrek turns folks into musical fans

A promise to pay it forward one day

Editor: Recently we attended a show at Chilliwack Cultural Centre, Shrek, The Musical, basically because our niece’s daughter was in the show and hey, you have to show some support. My wife very much enjoys musicals, me not so much, with a couple exceptions. The idea of a bunch of kids dancing around on stage singing and whatever didn’t exactly thrill me. We were completely blown away by these young people, their singing, their dancing, and all-round talent. We heard there was a problem or two during one or two shows but were told how they improvised, the audience probably none the wiser. A few of the performers kept us laughing and clapping most of the evening.

Editor: I want to say “thank you” to the person who was in front of me at the Luckakuck McDonalds drive thru recently. When I pulled up to pay for my breakfast I was told that you paid for it. You sir (or madam) made my day. You gave me such a feeling of joy and happiness that it was hard to stop smiling. Just when you think the world is going down the tubes, along comes someone to remind you that it is only a small handful doing all the bad stuff—the majority of humanity is inherently good. I will pay your kindness forward and buy someone breakfast. Geoff Wickens Chilliwack

Faith Today

Are we forgetting how to take risks? BY MORRIS WATSON Chilliwack Victory Church

had a friend when I was young that moved to my hometown from a big city and he had in his possession something that I had only ever seen in comics. It was a skateboard. Today they are as common as bicycles, having advanced and evolved to the place where they barely resemble the one that my friend had. This board on wheels simply smacked of risk to me. I couldn’t wait to put my feet on that thing and shoot down the street like I had seen Archie do in the comics that I read. I still have the flat spot on the

back of head from that first and only encounter with a skateboard. The sense of risk gave way to a healthy respect for how dangerous it was and I decided that it wasn’t worth the risk. Today, people do things that would make that incident seem tame, even laughable. Many times since I have done things that make it seem innocent but the experience kept me from ever trying it again. It tells me how quick we are at abandoning things that have a risk component to them. The risk component involved in certain things produces a fear of being hurt that prevents us from proceeding in that activity. This

becomes a pattern in our lives and very soon our society doesn’t even resemble the risk-taking pioneers that founded us. This fear of risk will keep us from doing certain jobs, entering into relationships and doing things that can make the world a better place. Risk seems to be a key component in anything significant and yet we are doing our very best to eliminate it from our society. In around 252 AD the plague swept through the North African city of Carthage and was taking life in epic proportions. Everyone was fleeing to get away from the plague, leaving the city to the dead and dying. This incident would have caused the collapse of this once great city if

it were not for a group of people that became known as, “The Risk Takers.” This group of Christian people stayed behind while everyone else fled so that they could deal with the dead bodies that were contaminating the city. They also did what they could to comfort those that were afflicted but still alive, which put them in direct contact with a deadly disease. No one knows how many of the Risk Takers contracted the plague and died themselves, but they considered the salvation of their city to be worth the risks associated with doing the work. At great risk to themselves they saved their city from ruin. This type of risk is certainly as great or greater than those taken by

extreme sports junkies even though in the end both could lose their lives. It’s the types of risk that this group of Christians took that transforms or even saves a society. Putting your own life at risk to save someone else is the greatest form of sacrifice that there is. The pages of the Bible are filled with such risk takers with Jesus being the greatest of them all. If we want to make the world a better place we are going to face some risks but they are risks worth taking. Just ask the Carthaginian risk takers. ◗ Morris Watson is a pastor with Chilliwack Victory Church. Contact him at morris@v-church.com.

Surrey Eagles netminder Devon Fordyce fights off a shot during action at Prospera Centre Saturday night. The Chiefs were beaten 7-4. BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

aking the playoffs was an extreme long-shot for the Chilliwack Chiefs ever since the new year began, but post-season hopes officially died on the weekend as the team lost back-to-back must-win games against the Surrey Eagles. Twenty points back of Surrey with just nine games to go, the math is simple: the Chiefs will not be in the playoffs for the first time in coach Harvey Smyl’s 20 years behind the bench. The team was chasing Surrey for the last playoff spot in the Mainland Division, and faced them at South Surrey Arena last Friday but fell 5-2. It was all Surrey for the first two periods as they scored one in the first and three in the second, holding a 4-0 lead

Playoff hopes die as Chiefs drop back-to-back games into the third. The Chiefs salvaged some respect as Mathieu Tibbet scored at 4:45 of the third from Tanner Cochrane—if nothing else a good leadership moment from the captain (Cochrane) and assistant captain. Surrey got one more, making it 5-1, and at 15:05 youngster Jordan Kawaguchi scored, assisted by newcomer Mason Boh and goalie Josh Halpenny who stopped 29 of 34 shots in the loss. The Chiefs were back at Prospera Centre to face the Eagles Saturday night with a similar result, dropping the game 7-4 to a motivated Surrey squad looking to secure a playoff berth. The Chiefs opened the scoring in this one at 17:10 of the first on a goal

from Jaret Babych, assisted by Andrew Silard and Halpenny. (That was the second assist in 22 minutes of hockey for the Chilliwack-born goalie.) Cochrane assisted on another Tibbet goal just 55 seconds into the second giving the team a 2-1 lead until 6:17 of the period when the wheels came off. Surrey scored four goals in 13 minutes with brothers Jonah and Nathan Renouf each getting a goal and an assist. The third period was more even as Cochrane scored one from Zach Diamontoni and Tibbet, and Ben Butcher scored from Caleb Thompson and Diamontoni. But Surrey got two more of its own, including an empty netter at 19:37 to

end Chilliwack’s faint playoff hopes, and secure their own spot in the post-season. While the team was always hopeful about the 2013-14 season, they were also always going to be up against it with a young, inexperienced team. After last season, the team lost 10 players to scholarships and four more aged out. Most years they would lose six or seven starters, but the Chiefs lost 14. “We had a big mountain to climb to try to rebuild the team,” team president Glen Ringdal has said. For next season, the team is relying on a solid base of young players who will have a BCHL year under their belts, along with Smyl’s skills at trading and spotting talent.

Jock scraps Kicking up some dirt Top motorcycle racers from across North America suited up and hit the track for rounds seven and eight of the Kawasaki Canadian Arenacross Championships at Chilliwack’s Heritage Park last weekend. Brock Hoyer of William’s lake showed the competition the way around the track, collecting two main event wins. Other notables included Ontario’s Jeremy Medaglia and Washington State’s Ross Johnson splitting wins in the open classes. Abbotsford’s Jacob Piccolo took the chequered flag on Friday and Saturday night in Supermini classes, while Wyatt Waddell took three of four Intermediate class wins. Ty Cyr, Devyn Smith and Nick Van Meel put on a show in the 50cc classes, all taking wins over the weekend. Along with the racing, local country artists Todd Richard and Chris Buck Band performed for the crowds in the entertainment zone. Rounds nine and 10 of the championship, along with BMX Freestyle demonstrations, face painting, an RC car zone, a gaming centre and a whole lot more, runs this Friday and Saturday.

Cascades still in first Chilliwack players led the UFV women’s basketball team in a pair of home games split by the Cascades last weekend. After a 64-62 loss to Regina Friday and a 68-52 win over Brandon Saturday, the Cascades are right back where they started—knotted in a three-way tie for first place with UBC and UVic in Canada West’s Pacific Division. UFV was down 30-23 to Regina after the first half Friday but surged back to take a seven-point lead in the third quarter only to have Regina narrow the gap 42-41 by the beginning of the fourth. Down by only one point with seconds remaining in the game the Cascades couldn’t find the single point. The Columbia Valley’s Kayli Sartori led the Cascades with 19 points and five steals, while Nataliia Gavryliuk and Aieisha Luyken had 14 points and 10 points respectively. In a scrap with the Brandon Bobcats Saturday, Chilliwack’s Sarah Wierks came up big on the boards, pulling in 11 of the Cascades 27 offensive rebounds, on her way to 14 total boards and 12 points. Aieisha Luyken led the Cascades offence with 14 points, while Chilliwack’s Courtney Bartel put up 12 points and grabbed 10 rebounds. The Cascades travel to Prince George this Friday to take on the UNBC Timberwolves.

Since forming in 1979 in Toronto, The Nylons have seen it all throughout a career that has brought them Gold and Platinum albums in Canada and internationally, and taken them to perform for adoring audiences all over the world. Garth Mosbaugh, Nylons tenor since 1994, says “it’s been a huge ride so far and the thrill of performing just doesn’t wear off. Every time we go on stage it feels just like it did when I first sang ‘Up On The Roof ’ on New Year’s Eve of ‘93/’94 for a show in Winnipeg.” Hitting his 20 year anniversary with The Nylons this year, Garth is the second-longest performing Nylon after founding member and tenor Claude Morrison, who continues to bust the moves and hit those high notes today. Garth and Claude are joined by Gavin Hope singing baritone and Tyrone Gabriel singing bass to

complete The Nylons, and he says that the diverse background and incredible abilities of these vocal virtuosos invigorates their performances with more flair and entertainment than ever. “We each add our own elements to The Nylons” he says, “and the result is this remarkable group dynamic. By continuing to push the bar and challenge ourselves we keep everything really fresh and exciting. I feel that the current line-up has an amazingly personable and entertaining dimension.” Combining their trademark vocal arrangements, flawless harmonies and captivating leads with tight choreography and fabulous showmanship, The Nylons produce a vibrant and outstandingly entertaining stage show, showcasing their years of experience and timeless appeal.

Garth promises that their appearance at the Cultural Centre will include everything you love about The Nylons, featuring the fun and charm that they have flaunted for over 30 years - and of course those classic hits! “We just HAVE to play ‘The Lion Sleeps Tonight’” he laughs, “otherwise there’d be a riot! We’re all about making our audiences happy, so we’re really excited to head to Chilliwack to bring the fun and spread the love in the way only The Nylons can.” For anybody who loves song and dance, having a good time, and those timeless pop tracks from the 50s through to today, there is only one place you should be this February! The Nylons will be swinging into town on February 13, and bringing a show with them you do not want to miss. Be sure to reserve your tickets before we sing ‘Na Na Hey Hey’ and kiss them goodbye, and call 604-391SHOW (7469) to book your seat!

Five Ways to Get the Most Out of Your Home Warranty Insurance Buyers of new homes in B.C. are protected by Canada’s strongest construction defect insurance. Those who learn as much as they can about their home warranty insurance will get the most out of their coverage. 1. Make note of each coverage expiry date. The home warranty insurance provided on new singlefamily and multi-family homes built for sale in B.C. protects against different defects for specific periods of time, including 2 years on labour and materials (some limits apply), 5 years on the building envelope (including water penetration) and 10 years on the structure. Review your policy for details. 2. Know what’s covered and what isn’t. Make sure you understand the extent and limitations of your coverage by reading through your insurance documents. You can also search the HPO’s free online Residential Construction Performance Guide. 3. Make a claim. If you need to make a claim for defects not otherwise taken care of by your builder, be sure to send details in writing to your warranty provider prior to the expiry of coverage. 4. Maintain your home. Maintain your home to protect your coverage, and if you receive a maintenance manual for your home, read it and follow it. 5. Learn more.

News location of the proposed plant “to be fraught with hazard.” “I hope that you and your council will delay passage of this proposal until a second look is taken and hopefully a better location is found for it,” said the letter, written by a staffer on behalf of Bing. Bing suggested that because his constituency is not far downstream from Chilliwack, the area “could be negatively impacted by such an endeavour.” On Tuesday, NDP environment critic, and MLA for Vancouver-West End, Spencer Chandra Herbert came to Chilliwack to visit the site of the facility and meet with opponents. Chandra Herbert said hearing about the plant so close to the banks of the Fraser River got his attention. “I don’t see how siting a facility with toxins like this right next to the Fraser is a good idea,” he told the Times Monday. He said he has arranged to speak with the proponent, Ontario-based Aevitas Inc., this week about why the particular Cannor Road site was chosen. Company president Byron Day has twice declined requests by the HEALTH, from page 3 time to process the news and get another opinion. He has since decided he doesn’t want surgery, Annie said, and now has only weeks to live. From the beginning, Annie has had to fight to keep Darl in Canada, while hospital officials have tried to have him moved to St. Joseph’s Medical Centre in Bellingham. Her biggest source of frustration is knowing her partner would have been eligible for MSP last March if Immigration Canada had not sent his Confirmation of Permanent

‘. . . no rubber stamp here’ Times to comment on why this property was chosen. When asked for his opinion on the site, Chilliwack MLA John Martin told the Times that because the provincial government had not yet received an application, and because city hall environmental engineers found it to be a suitable site, he isn’t in a position to say what’s too close to the river. “There is no rubber stamp here,” he said. “It has to go through the very detailed environmental review and process just like any application.” While he did not want to weigh in on the site, Martin does not think Bing doing so was inappropriate. “We are all elected to basically hear out the concerns of the constituents, and I’m assuming a constituent went to him with concerns and he did what he judged the right thing to do,” Martin said. After council’s vote on Tuesday, B.C. Federation of Drift Fishers president Rod Clapton said the coalition of groups opposed to the site will now turn their attention to higher levels of government.

TEETH-IN-A-DAY

“This is certainly just the first step,” he said. “From here we progress to the provincial and federal level. Obviously it would appear that Chilliwack council is not concerned about the health of the Fraser River. . . . We do have a plan in place and it’s full speed ahead as far as opposing this thing.” The coalition of groups opposed to the plant received a legal opinion from West Coast Environmental Law, which was forwarded on to city council on Tuesday. The letter deemed the notice of public hearing to be inadequate for the rezoning. In his opinion, Andrew Gage wrote that the advertisements about the public hearing showed an “oddly cropped” map so that the Fraser River did not appear. He also noted that nowhere in the public notice was there mention that the facility would handle hazardous waste. “I would recommend that the City of Chilliwack not proceed with fourth reading of the bylaw at this time, and instead publish a new public notice and re-open public hearings in respect of the bylaw,” Gage wrote.

Teeth-in-a-day is a revolutionary concept providing patients fully functioning teeth using dental implants in one single procedure. This technology was recently developed by Nobel Biocare and incorporates our inoffice state-of-the-art Cat Scan 9300 3D Imager. This ensures an extremely precise implant placement.

The process starts with a CAT scan taken of the patient’s jawbone which allows for the generation of a three-dimensional model of the jawbone. This image is used in virtual reality software to plan the implant

placement without the presence of the patient. Two to four weeks later your new teeth are ready for implant, which takes about an hour for each upper and lower. Teethin-a-day provides less postoperative discomfort, less swelling and bruising and less chair time for the patient at the surgery office.

Most patients resume their normal activities the next day.

Was actually approved Residency (COPR) to the wrong address. In turned out Darl had actually been approved for permanent residency in December 2012, but the couple didn’t find that out until two weeks ago. An immigration official said the error had been corrected and a new COPR. The only catch was that Darl’s medical examination had expired and he would have to get another one. Since that route to MSP is clearly a

dead end, Annie’s only hope now is that health officials will attach Darl to her MSP as her common-law spouse on compassionate grounds. After the long battle she’s fought with the medical system while simultaneously dealing the loss of her partner and caregiver, Annie is skeptical and exhausted but hopeful. “It’s horrifying,” Annie said, her voice reduce to a whisper through her tears, “but you have to believe. You have to have something that gives you hope.”

FVRL librarian and eReader specialist, Jacquelynne Garden, facilitates an eReader workshop for wireless devices at the Chilliwack Library. The next eReader workshop will be held Tuesday, Feb. 11 from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at the Chilliwack Library. Registration is required.

eReaders gain popularity BY SHARRON HO Chilliwack Times

ervices offered at the Fraser Valley Regional Library (FVRL) have come a long way since the 1930s, when the community’s reading needs were shuttled from farm to farm by bookmobile. As times change and attention shifts away from print products, libraries have begun offering eReader services, which, in the case of the FVRL, started in 2008. From 2012 to 2013, the use of eBooks and downloadable audiobooks increased by 28 per cent from a circulation of 260,000 to 330,000 for the entire FVRL, which includes Chilliwack Library, Sardis Library and Yarrow Library. FVRL librarian and eReader specialist, Jacquelynne Garden, facilitates eReader workshops in Chilliwack and said sessions usually see 12 to 15 participants—many of whom are seniors or working professionals. Children and teens, who are considered more technologically savvy, tend to find other ways to read digital content. “This time of year people get them for Christmas, so we get a lot of people in, so it’s kind of a season sort of thing, but that’s a fair number [of participants],” Garden said.

“There was always this big fear that eReaders were going to make books go away, [but] they’re different tools for different uses.” Smitty Miller “Judging by the use of the collection, I can say that people who do use [eReader services] are heavy users. The biggest complaint that we do get about it is there’s not enough books,” she added. In total, the FVRL has 15,000 eBook titles and 10,000 downloadable audiobooks (not including duplicate copies). According to Dean Kelly, support services librarian at the FVRL administrative centre, an eBook can only be loaned to one user at any given time, resulting in hold lists for several popular items. The selection is also limited due to publisher restrictions, which are in place as they try to find ways to monetize the new world of eBooks. While the library may be keeping abreast of changes in a technological world, Smitty Miller, community librarian at the Chilliwack Library, said an “exponential” increase in the use of digital content doesn’t

mean user demographics have changed or that people are no longer seeking traditional library resources like hard copy books, newspapers, magazines and DVDs. In 2013, Chilliwack’s three libraries circulated 900,000 physical items; with the Sardis location only opening in May of that year. “One doesn’t take the place of the other,” Miller said. “There was always this big fear that eReaders were going to make books go away, [but] they’re different tools for different uses.” She added that the joy of reading and holding books are ingrained in many people at a young age. “Do I think that maybe in 200 years, we might not have print books? Maybe, I don’t know. But the reason it would take so long to switch over is because we pass down our love of books to our children.” Despite the evolution of the library over the years, Miller said its purpose has remained constant, which keeps about 1,000 people of all ages and backgrounds walking through the downtown location’s doors daily. “The library is an integral part of the community and its information needs,” she said. “We’re always challenged with how to publicize . . . the breadth of the services that we offer, but the nature of what we do hasn’t changed, just how we do it is different.”

Investigation finds RCMP officer did nothing wrong Unarmed, broken-jawed man, struck & tasered three times A

Chilliwack RCMP officer who struck an unarmed, broken-jawed man on the head and shoulders twice after the man had been tasered three times and was being held to the ground by two other officers will not be charged with wrongdoing. The incident, on Aug. 14, 2013, is one of three cases recently investigated by B.C.’s Independent Investigations Office (IIO). The other two, in Prince George and Vancouver, also ended with no charges being approved, according to a Criminal Justice Branch (CJB) press release. The Chilliwack incident arose in the

early morning hours of Aug. 14, when RCMP responded to a complaint of a man wielding a knife at a local hotel. The man, who still faces charges related to the incident, had allegedly produced a knife and menaced an employee at the hotel desk. Hotel security footage then shows him in a confrontation with a hotel guest who tried to intervene. By the time police arrived, he had left the hotel. One of the first two police officers to arrive on the scene said he had seen

the suspect, holding a knife down against his leg, approach and strike the driver side door and windshield of a truck stopped at a traffic signal. When the first two officers got out of their vehicle, he advanced on them, still carrying the knife. One officer then drew his Taser, and the suspect was repeatedly ordered to drop the knife but did not do so, according to the Criminal Justice Branch. He continued to advance on police, holding the knife in a threatening manner, and police fired the Taser

three times. He didn’t drop to the ground until the third discharge. A civilian witness said the knife had flown out of the suspect’s hand when he was tasered the third time, but the two police officers said he continued to hold the knife in his hand while he was on the ground. The officer who had discharged the Taser then dropped onto the suspect, secured the knife and threw it some distance away while the second officer dropped onto the suspect’s legs to help

restrain him. A third officer then approached quickly and struck the suspect in the head and shoulder area twice, yelling at him to drop the knife. The officer who had thrown the knife then pointed to the knife on the road, and third office didn’t hit the suspect again. The officer said he had struck the suspect in order to help the first two officers restrain him before the effect of the Taser wore off. The CJB press release concludes by noting the charge assessment was conducted by senior Crown Counsel who does not work in the same region as the Chilliwack officers.

Winnipeg-based roots quartet Oh My Darling perform Feb. 15 at 8 p.m. at Harrison Memorial Hall.

Hourly Drawings: 2 - 7 pm

Roots quartet hits Harrison W

ith a sweet name and even sweeter sound, Oh My Darling will be conjuring up the right mix of emotion and elation with their unique brand of country Feb. 15 at 8 p.m. in the historic Harrison Memorial Hall. Their prairie roots, mixed with bluegrass, Appalachian old time, southern twang and Franco-folk, makes their style a melting pot of musical languages. Infused with dynamic vocals, brilliant claw-hammer banjo, inspired fiddling and grooving bass, their music is sure to get your hips swinging, toes tapping and put your heart right into their hands. “It’s a tight band with strong instrumental skills and a delightful stage presence,” says Harrison Festival artistic director Andy Hillhouse. “They are genuinely nice warm people, a feeling that pervades their performance.” This Winnipeg-based roots quartet has been topping the campus radio charts for

some time and can be heard regularly on CBC Radio and Radio Canada. They have received rave reviews for their recordings and performances including four Western Canadian Music Award nominations. Oh My Darling has headlined Canadian tours from coast-to-coast, as well as European Tours and are crowd favourites at country and folk festivals across the globe. Each time these gals take the stage, they prove time and again why they’re captivating audiences and attracting an abundance of fans. Vanessa Kuzina (guitar, fiddlesticks, vocals), Hannah Read (fiddle, vocals), Allison de Groot (claw-hammer banjo, vocals) and Marie-Josée Dandeneau (upright bass, vocals) are all musical prodigies in their own right but it’s the combination of their strong individual personalities that make Oh My Darling one-of-a-kind. With four creative minds behind the writing, arranging and performing, the original music of Oh

My Darling is strikingly unique, diversely informed and highly entertaining. “Their onstage personalities complement each other brilliantly—for instance, you have bass player Marie-Josée Dandeneau, with a high energy, playful vibe, while banjo player Allison de Groot is cool and steady,” says Hillhouse. Watching this foursome play feels like walking into a room of best friends, interacting naturally and effortlessly. The wordless communication that happens between them is mesmerizing. They are sincere and earnest on stage, with a measure of good-natured humour thrown in. ◗ Tickets for Oh My Darling are $22 and can be purchased online at www.harrisonfestival.com, by phone at 604-796-3664 or in person at the Ranger Station Art Gallery in Harrison and Agassiz Shoppers Drug Mart on Pioneer Ave.

ith their timeless harmonies, leads and charm, The Nylons have earned their place as Canada’s most beloved vocal quartet. Since their humble beginnings in the back of a Toronto delicatessen in 1979, the group has gone on to worldwide tours, award-winning albums and international recognition as one of the top a cappella groups of all time. From earning gold and platinum records for their early ‘80s releases, to Juno Award nominations for their 15th record Skin Tight in 2011, The Nylons have made a huge impact on the jazz music scene over their storied career and are bringing their memorable hits and vibrant stage show to the Chilliwack Cultural Cen-

Acclaimed tenor Benjamin Butterfield joins Sarah Hagen at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre Feb. 14 at 10:30 a.m.

Talented tenor joins Hagen

soothing morning of classical Canadian talent will come to the Chilliwack Cultural Centre on Feb. 14 at 10:30 a.m., when one of British Columbia’s most acclaimed and internationally prevalent tenors, Benjamin Butterfield, joins the innovative Sarah Hagen in the next instalment of the Rain Mountain Classical Music Series. With Butterfield’s lavishly resonant timbre accompanying the talents of rising star Sarah Hagen, this morning concert of classical splendour will be both a spectacle to behold and the perfect way to begin a tranquil day of romance with your Valentine. Young Canadian pianist Hagen has received critical acclaim for her imaginative vision and outstanding skill in assembling conceptually original performances that include photography, dance and theatre. Described as “a rarity of musical

excellence, technical ease and tonal purity,” Sarah’s belief that “music has the power to be a window into our souls regardless of age or knowledge,” has led her to collaborate with a broad range of classical vocalists and musicians, and her appearance alongside Butterfield will be the third of her four performances at the Centre this season. Butterfield’s clarity and tonal abilities have led critics to describe him as a tenor who sings “with taste, authority and agility,” and brings “a vibrant, resonant timbre to his solos.” His extensive background in classical performance has led him to tour nationally and internationally, being featured in symphony halls from Seattle to New York’s Carnegie Hall. After singing alongside all major orchestra and opera companies in Canada, at London’s Royal Albert Hall and across

Europe, Butterfield’s reputation as one of Canada’s finest tenors precedes him. Alongside his busy touring schedule Butterfield still finds time to be counted among the faculty at the University of Victoria as associate professor and the head of voice program in the university’s School of Music. Although his talents have not left him short of live operatic and orchestral appearances, his musical forays have also led him to become a prolific recording artist, producing more than 40 releases that can be heard regularly on CBC Radio. His recorded performances have also earned international recognition, with four of his major releases being nominated for Canadian Juno Awards. ◗ For tickets, call the centre box office at 604-391-SHOW (7469), visit in person or purchase online at www.chilliwackculturalcentre.ca.
