A revealing sneak peak at mayoral hopefuls Gaetz and Hull square off at Rotary meeting BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

“I just thought of it and started to build it,” he said Tuesday, pointing out the different kinds of jumps around the track currently set up in his room. Ethan entered four submissions over the summer with the large collection of track pieces and cars he bought

rom empty buses to medical marijuana to singing O Canada, a handful of Rotary Club members and invited guests got a first chance last week to hear, on a wide range of topics, from two of the three candidates running for mayor of Chilliwack. The first public mayor candidates meeting is scheduled for Nov. 6 at 7 p.m. at the Hampton Inn, but the Rotary club got a private preview a week early. Incumbent mayor Sharon Gaetz and Cameron Hull gave brief opening remarks, which were followed by questions from the floor. (Raymond Cauchi was not at the meeting.) The meeting was respectful between the two although there was disagreement on most subjects. Anyone who has attended a Rotary meeting knows that, at the start, those in attendance stand, face the flags and sing O Canada. While doing this, Gaetz, who has been known to sing at hockey games, belted out the lyrics in full voice, while Hull stood rigid in place, hands at his side. One of the first questions asked of him was why he didn’t sing.

upfront Different ideas about downtown { MAYOR, from page A1 } “Soldiers stand to attention,” he said. “We are not a choir. I understand that’s not common, but I’m an old solider.” On the subject of a vision for downtown, Hull said the city needs to stop making it look like we are doing something by hiring consultants and get on with it. Gaetz said the use of consultants was important because “we want to get it right.” On public safety and how to pay for it, Hull implied that taxes may need to be raised to pay for increased security. He added how supportive he is for programs such as restorative justice. Gaetz said the issue was one of perception over reality, but added that focusing on root causes such as drug and alcohol addiction is crucial to public safety. On that specific subject, Gaetz said the plan was to get people off drugs and alcohol, and Hull tipped his hat to what the city had already done with regard to social housing. “We need to continue to do that work,” he said. One questioner suggested there must be a lot of people with glaucoma in Chilliwack, given the large number of personal medicinal marijuana grow-ops. This has been a persistent issue at city hall as even legal grow-ops can

The two, along with Raymond Cauchi, are scheduled for a public meeting Nov. 6 from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Hampton Inn. cause problems for the fire department and police. This was the first in a series of questions where Gaetz politely “corrected” Hull on facts and process. Hull suggested that since the federal rules had changed recently, medicinal marijuana growing in homes was illegal. “Well that’s kind of half right,” Gaetz said, pointing out that since Abbotsford lawyer John Conroy had challenged Health Canada’s changes, the ban on home growing that was supposed to go into effect this past April 1 had been delayed until the court challenge was resolved. On residential densification and

tearing down buildings downtown, Hull said he takes issue with the city’s land acquisition plan. He said the city is “playing with the market,” and is involved in land speculation. “I know that is not a conflict of interest, but it looks like one,” he said. Gaetz responded: “The City of Chilliwack never buys land for speculative purposes, just so you know.” Hull and Gaetz were close to being on the same page on the issue of transit, which was brought up by a downtown resident who said he sees empty buses driving around. Gaetz pointed to ridership numbers that have risen

sharply over the last two years, while Hull said the increase in service levels that led to those increases was long overdue. On the question of a recreational facility wishlist, Hull said Chilliwack has fantastic facilities, but he suggested the city should set aside land for another school on Promontory. Gaetz said there is a comprehensive 10-year plan that includes trails and bike lanes, and she pointed out that planning for schools is not the business of city hall. A number of council candidates, specifically Dick Harrington, have repeatedly suggested there is a lack of

transparency at city hall and that decision are made behind closed doors. Gaetz was asked about this. She welcomed the question, and said that committee meetings are open to the public, council meetings are open and streamed online. She explained that staff do meet with developers, and there are in camera meetings—required by law—to talk about land, labour and legal matters. “I don’t think we have a lack of transparency,” Gaetz said. “We really suck at communicaiton when [the public] doesn’t know how decisions are made.” Hull said transparency is communication. “It is the city’s responsibility to tell the people what is going on,” he said. Gaetz backtracked, saying “we don’t suck at communication,” and pointed to the city’s website, Facebook page and Twitter feed. “We are fully transparent.” In closing, Gaetz pointed to her record of 18 years at city hall and her experience dealing with the provincial government and UBCM. Hull said “if you always do what you’ve always done you’ll always get what you’ve always got.” He said city hall needs something different. “Are we going to stay as a little city on the edge of nowhere or a thriving city of 95,000 in the heart of the Fraser Valley.” ◗ Tonight (Thursday, Nov. 6) a public mayor candidates meeting is scheduled from 7 to 9 p.m. for the Hampton Inn, 8050 Lickman Rd.

We’re simply lousy at accurately evaluating risk

arely does a municipal election come around without considerable attention being paid to the subject of public safety. Property crime, drug dealing and violence are subjects that captivate people, arguably to the point of distraction. Crime rates across North America are down over the last decade, but thanks to steady or even increasing traditional media coverage, and an exponential rise in social media “coverage,” many don’t know it or believe it. “People need to feel safe in our city again,” mayoral candidate Cameron Hull said to Rotary Club members at a “debate” between he and Mayor Sharon Gaetz on Oct. 29. The two candidates were asked about their vision for public safety and how they planned to pay for it. Hull responded that safety was not just an

PAUL J. HENDERSON @peejayaitch issue for downtown, adding that yes, taxes may need to be raised to deal with the problem. “We have some of the lowest taxes,” Hull said. “You get what you pay for.” Gaetz, however, said the issue was one of perception versus reality. According to the top cop at the Chilliwack RCMP, Supt. Deanne Burleigh, crime is down three per cent over last year. Auto theft is down 36 per cent. Gaetz added that certainly more could and should be done, and her vision includes building good neighbourhoods to push out the unsavoury elements. There has been a recent spike in theft from vehicles and, in her Q&A response to a Times question (see

next week’s paper) about crime, she said: “Unfortunately, property crime is rising.” But even this measured approach gets the statistics wrong. In 2004, there were 8,088 total property crime violations in Chilliwack, according to police-reported crime statistics from Statistics Canada. In 2013, there were 5,256. Factor in the population increase and you are left with a 45 per cent decrease in property crime over the last decade. The break-and-enter rate has fallen by 49 per cent since 2004. Motor vehicle theft is down 61 per cent. Theft under $5,000 is down 48 per cent. The rate of total criminal code violations in Chilliwack is down 38 per cent over the last decade. There were 3,000 fewer crimes committed in Chilliwack in 2013 than there were in 2004. “Lived here for 32 years, and have never seen [Chilliwack] so bad,” said one commenter on a local Facebook page discussing whether a report on

lower crime rates was fact or fiction. “I wanna leave this place and go find a small quiet town.” “The cops and the present members of the mayors office don’t care!!!! just hide their heads in the sand and pretend it will go away!!!” said another. But what if people are, in fact, safer than they have ever been in this city? What if the perception of crime—as perpetuated with Facebook reports of every car backfire (“gunshots?”), sirens (“what’s happening on my street?”), and suspicious-looking bike riders with backpacks—is a misperception? Just because more people are complaining about property crime, and more people are sharing information about specific incidents on Facebook pages, it doesn’t follow that there is more crime. “[W]e are lousy at accurately evaluating risk, because fear works on an emotional, rather than rational level,” says UBC journalism professor Alfred

Hermida in his new book, Tell Everyone: Why We Share & Why It Matters. “Take the public perception of crime. Most Americans believe violent crime has been increasing over the past decade. The truth, though, is that violent crime has been on a downward trend since 1994.” In assessing why people share certain things on Twitter and Facebook, Hermida says people don’t like to share information and stories that make others feel badly or fearful. People will share, however, to warn others, particularly if there is a context, such as warning about a mugging in a neighbourhood prone to muggings. That context for sharing incidents of crime in Chilliwack could be the already existing general perception, at least on Facebook, that crime is rampant. When faced directly with statistics, some folks go so far to suggest fewer { See HENDERSON, page A6 }

“We’re safer than ever,” said no one ever on Facebook.

› News Scullion murder

The man charged in the 2008 murder of Chilliwack resident Michael Scullion had his latest court appearance last week. Richard MacInnes, 45, of Rosedale, faced a judge in Chilliwack Court on Oct. 29. He remains in custody and is scheduled for a focus hearing on March 9, 2015. Scullion was last seen April 10, 2008 outside the Harrison Crossroads Inn in Agassiz. He was reported missing, and the RCMP’s Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) took on the case in 2012. In March 2014, MacInnes, who has links to the drug trade in the area, was charged with second degree murder.

Douglas in court

Accused double murderer Aaron Douglas had his latest court appearance Oct. 28, and he is next scheduled in court by video on Dec. 23. Douglas is charged with the murders of Richard Blackmon and Tyler Belcourt in a downtown Chilliwack apartment. He is also accused in the attempted murder of a woman who cannot be named. The alleged incident on Aug. 7 occurred just two weeks after Douglas had an unrelated attempted murder charge dropped mid-trial in BC Supreme Court.

➤ CRIME BRIEFS Douglas was then wanted by police for 49 days until he was arrested in Abbotsford on Sept. 25. A publication ban means any details that emerge in his upcoming court appearances cannot be reported.

Prolific offenders face trial

Chilliwack courthouse regulars Curtis Vidal and Travis Soderstrom face a trial in BC Supreme Court in connection with a December 2013 home invasion. The two prolific offenders, who have extensive gang and drug connections, were set for trial in provincial court on Oct. 27, but instead re-elected to face trial by Supreme Court justice. That trial is scheduled for June 22, 2015.

Home invasion case

One of two men charged in connection with a Chilliwack home invasion and car-jacking had his latest court apperance on Tuesday and had his bail revoked. Troy Tinoy James, 25, is charged along with Jonathon David Olson, 35, in the alleged Oct. 4 incident that began with a targeted home invasion at a wrong address. An innocent 25-year-old victim who had a gun pointed at him escaped the ordeal, after which the alleged suspects car-jacked a

truck on Coote Street at gun point. James also faces two counts of uttering threats for unrelated incidents earlier this year. He’ll be back in court via video facing all charges on Nov. 25.

No arrests

Chilliwack RCMP have made no arrests in connection with two serious incidents that made the news over the last week. The first involved an early morning home invasion at a Popkum home just east of the Chilliwack border. A female occupant of a home faced five male suspects who gained entry to a single family home in the 52000 block of Yale Road. She escaped and got help from a neighbour. Home invasions often involved individuals in the drug trade targeting rivals, but police say the occupants of the home are not known to police. The second incident involved a stolen Porsche on Oct. 30 that ran over a spike belt and sped throughout the city before being abandoned on Loring Avenue. An officer fired his gun at the vehicle on McGuire Road. Two men are wanted in connection with the incident. Chilliwack RCMP ask anyone who may have any information about these incidents or any other to contact them at 604-7924611 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800222-8477.

Curbside Collection WILL occur on Remembrance Day Tuesday, Nov 11th To honour the sacrifices of the armed forces, no collection will take place between 10:30am and 11:30am. The Bailey Landfill and Parr Road Green Depot will be closed November 11th.

His name has not yet been released. { HENDERSON, from page A3 } incidents are reported because property crime cases are solved at too low a rate. “Only seems like the crime rate is down because people have given up on reporting crimes!” one local Facebook user posted. “Rarely does anything come of reporting it so people think ‘what’s the point?’” “That’s because crimes are getting reported to Facebook & no longer getting reported to the RCMP!” said another. It’s hard to fathom that folks who have had bikes stolen or homes broken into are only posting this to social media and not filing police

Social media spreads the message that fewer crimes are reported to RCMP reports in such high numbers to skew the statistics. None of this means we can’t do better, which is a near universal sentiment put forth by election candidates. Both Hull and Gaetz, along with the third mayoral candidate Raymond Cauchi, agree that root causes of crime need to be addressed. That includes homelessness, and drug and alcohol addiction. For every individual who is assaulted or has a vehicle stolen, a dropping crime rate doesn’t matter.

But as a community we have to be wary about alarmism and putting resources where they are needed most. “You’re hearing about it more and more because of groups like this that spread the word,” said another local Facebook user. “These petty crimes happened 15 years ago too but unless you live in a really small town you’re not going to hear Bob’s window getting broken or Billy’s stolen bicycle in the local paper, that doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.” Exactly.

Legion voices displeasure with anti-abortion stunt Saturday BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

The Royal Canadian Legion said the Chilliwack Cenotaph was not an appropriate location for this anti-abortion protest on Saturday. many commenters suggesting that regardless of the subject matter, violating city bylaws and carrying out the stunt just 10 days before Remembrance Day at the Cenotaph was inappropriate. Donna Penner said that she supports freedom of speech, is a Christian, and does not support abortion, but the location was wrong. “PLEASE in future be thoughtful towards others as well,” Penner wrote on Facebook. “And if you think that you didn’t cause much { See STUNT, page A20 }

The stunt was also a contravention of the City of Chilliwack’s Parks, Recreation and Culture Bylaw, which carries a penalty of $100 per sign posted. A city spokesperson said they received complaints, but because no bylaw officers work on the weekend, and because there was some confusion over a city website events posting, no fines were issued.

he Royal Canadian Legion responded Tuesday to the inappropriate location of an anti-abortion protest at the Chilliwack cenotaph at Veterans Park. But the organizers of the stunt held Saturday refused to apologize to veterans and their supporters. A Royal Canadian Legion spokesperson told the Times that the Legion has no position on the issue of abortion, nor does it have an issue with the right of people to gather peacefully on any issue. “We would have hoped that the location of this protest would not have been the Cenotaph as it is there as a tribute to Veterans and those who have given their lives for our country,” said Inga Kruse, executive director of the BC/Yukon Command and Foundation of the Royal Canadian Legion. “We would prefer the sanctity of that be respected by all citizens.” A group calling itself the Fraser Valley Association for Reformed Po l i t i c a l Ac t i o n , a l o n g w i t h weneedalaw.ca cover the grounds

◗ Publisher

ew issues evoke such a passionate response as abortion. But make no mistake, the controversy surrounding the flag protest at the Chilliwack Museum and Cenotaph last Saturday has nothing whatsoever to do with women’s reproductive rights. No, this story (see page 7) is about two things: process and decency. The former is bureaucratic. The latter is about civility, respect and honouring those who we will stand up for on Nov. 11. To do what the anti-abortion group did on Saturday requires written permission by the city’s director of operations. This was not asked for nor was it given, therefore, the stunt violated a city bylaw and (at least) one $100 fine should have been issued. It was not, in part because the organization was allowed to post an event listing that said on the Chilliwack Museum grounds “Arpa Fraser Valley East” would have “a display of construction flags (small, thin) with some people handing out information.” With that, the organization claimed it had permission. It did not. But the city is not off the hook. This ambiguous event listing should not have been allowed since it’s wording implied the event would violate the bylaw by putting flags on city property. Much more important in all of this is the utter disdain showed to soldiers and veterans by an organization that thought the Chilliwack Cenotaph, 10 days before Remembrance Day, was a suitable place to hold a protest. Shame on them.

Historic district could be catalyst

o one would disagree that Chilliwack’s downtown is not being utilized and appreciated to its fullest extent. In fact, the City of Chilliwack has acknowledged the ongoing issue and in the process has hired Netherland-based Walas Group, at taxpayers’ expense, to come up with creative ideas to spearhead the revitalization of Chilliwack’s downtown. What makes our downtown special? To start with, Chilliwack is the third oldest municipality in B.C. and our settlement history is closely linked to B.C.’s 1850’s gold rush. Known originally as “Centreville”, Chilliwack’s downtown has served the needs of both residents and visitors for over 130 years. With thoughtful planning, the use of available government resources and input from the community, Chilliwack’s downtown has the opportunity to become a jewel in the Fraser Valley. How do we get there? Chilliwack is not alone in their quest to re-shape the downtown. Cities of all sizes, from east to west, in both Canada and the U.S. have faced similar challenges as Chilliwack in

LAURA REID Be Our Guest their attempt to make their downtowns the vibrant, thriving centres of daily life they once were. Nanaimo, Grand Forks and Nelson, in B.C., and Snohomish, Washington, are just a few examples of cities that have overcome similar challenges and experienced renewal in their downtowns by capitalizing on what they already had – authentic heritage. By creating heritage districts, these cities have identified and reinforced the historic character of their communities, creating a sense of stability, continuity and community identity. Heritage districts enhance a community’s ability to attract investment, increase tourist visits, provide spaces for artists to live and work, and to attract film and television productions seeking “authentic” locations. In addition, jobs for skilled

tradespeople are often created when heritage buildings are either restored or repurposed. How is a heritage district defined? A heritage district is an area of special meaning and historical importance to a community; a concentration of historic buildings, structures or landscape features and is often the most effective way to conserve and enhance a community’s heritage assets. A heritage conservation study is an important first step and a useful tool used to identify and evaluate heritage resources and to craft policies that ensure new development builds upon the distinct identity and history of the community. This is not to say new development does not have a place in a historic district. In fact, communities that encourage new development and innovative businesses without sacrificing the unique character of their community will have an advantage in attracting investment. Integrating heritage management with planning ensures any new development enhances, reinforces and

adds to the historic character of a community. Local government has the ability to designate historic districts through their Official Community Plan (OCP) and part 27 of the Local Government Act. The government of B.C. together with the Real Estate Foundation of B.C. and Columbia Institute published the Dynamic Downtowns Workbook: Using Heritage to Build Strong Vibrant Downtowns in 2013, providing case studies and tools to enable communities to do just that. By understanding how a historic district could be the catalyst to cause positive change, together with a co-ordinated and well thought out plan this can happen in Chilliwack. By working co-operatively, utilizing our heritage assets and investing in resources, this can be accomplished at the community level; no consultant needed, thank you. ◗ Laura Reid is a founding board member of Heritage Chilliwack Society, a student of the University of Victoria in the Cultural Resource Management Program, and proudly lives and works downtown.

Daylight Savings Time all year Editor: Sent to MP Mark Strahl and MLA Laurie Throness. Is the issue of Daylight Saving Time a provincial or federal matter? Since Saskatchewan made a wise provincial decision to maintain Daylight Saving Time throughout the year, I am guessing it is a provincial matter. I, like many others including Dr. Art Hister, believe Daylight Saving Time should be kept year round. No more spring forward and fall back one hour time changes. Advantages include: 1. Improved child health as children can play outside longer in the lighter evenings. 2. Less time/employment disruption to many businesses operating 24/7. 3. Improved health and safety of the general public and consequently improved economics as, for example, ICBC notes spikes in vehicle accident rates in the few weeks following each time change. Eliminate increased heart attack occurrences after every, “one hour spring forward. 4. Numerous other safety and economic reasons to maintain Daylight Saving Time year round. 5. If a provincial decision could be made to maintain Daylight Saving Time, such as the decision to increase the speed limits on some provincial highways, that would be great. Alternatively, ASAP could the choice be decided by a provincial referendum? I shall look forward to your responses and comments. Roger Pannett Chilliwack

A blueprint for better education Editor: An open letter to school trustees: It’s time to hear the truth. “He who opens a school door, closes a prison” - Victor Hugo Education is the “civil-rights issue of our time.” All children in a free nation have a moral claim to attend schools that will help them discover and develop their gifts. The most important responsibility and solemn duty of a school board happens to be the general education of all its children. And ensuring that students finish high school ready either for college or the world of work ought to be the fundamental goal of a basic education. Sadly, we’re failing to meet our obligation. For far too many of our students, high school is a route to nowhere when graduation rates remain stagnant at less than 75 per cent for the general population and a bare 50 per cent for First Nations. Students are failing in large numbers. But it doesn’t have to be so. Blueprint for a better tomorrow follows: ◗ Start with great expectations and a clearer focus. “Raise the bar so high that kids have to actually leave the ground to clear it.” ◗ Make choices. For example, even though all subjects are important, literacy is more so. Therefore, shift more resources to teaching literacy in the primary grades. ◗ Ensure that the superintendent

Please remember, brevity is the soul of wit. you hire says to the board, “Give me your mission statement and I’ll run with it.” ◗ Appoint principals who are instructional leaders not just managers. Although many factors go into the making of a good school, principal leadership remains the key to school success. ◗ Use only the best instructional practices and develop a plan for reform that prevents mild learning problems from turning into virtually intractable disabilities. There’s no excuse for those ” Dismal Grade 7 math FSA scores (Chilliwack Times, July 19, 2012). ◗ Continuously monitor progress. Remember, what gets measured, gets done. For best results, try value-added assessment. Thus we’ll be accountable for the growth in student achievement. ◗ Keep parents fully on side by putting public back in public education. ◗ Above all, the board must adopt sound principles of budget allocation in order to guarantee continuation of the excellent education system desired. Put money where it matters most. Thus you’ll help improve performance while controlling costs. Learn to do more with less, i.e. efficiency and effectiveness. We’re far more inefficient than any business would tolerate and still remain solvent. I believe that real success comes when people stop making excuses and become result-oriented. I say, it’s the waste in education, stupid! Schools are producing low returns for the dollars spent: value-for-money. And one more thing, be careful about wasting too much time on committees. After all, “A committee is a gathering of ‘important’ people who singly can do nothing, but together can decide that nothing can be done”- Jonathan Green. So, when it comes to committees, less may just turn out to be more. Always remember that a board is responsible for evaluating all the educational programs and services provided (The School Act). Hence, put students front and centre and good luck in your challenge of governing for results. Lal Sharma Chilliwack

City dropped the ball on protest Editor: In response to: No fines issued for Chilliwack anti-abortion protest that violated bylaw. I am outraged that the City of Chilliwack appears to condone illegal activities on public proper-

ty. Director of Corporate Services approved the listing of an “ambiguous event” on the city website. Did the director know he was approving an anti-abortion protest on public property? If so, the BC Ombudsperson and the RCMP should investigate the misuse of public position to support illegal activities. If he didn’t know, why is he in that position? A six-figure salary requires a level of professionalism that precludes “ambiguous event” postings for illegal protests. No fine for bylaw violations sends a message that the City of Chilliwack condones the illegal protest on public property and the misuse of public position (or incompetence!) by a city employee. I have complained about the City of Chilliwack to the Office of the Ombudsperson, B.C.’s Independent Voice for Fairness. Citizens of a democracy must speak out to hold elected and public officials to a standard of professionalism where illegal protests have no place on public property and fines are levied for bylaw violations.

We are made of sterner stuff Editor: Thank you, Chilliwack Times Publisher Bastaja, for your op-ed on the recent attack on our servicemen and our parliament (Times, Oct. 30). Your question, “are we not made of sterner stuff?” although rhetorical is one that may be answered in the future. In regard to how stern and committed Canada has been when confronting enemies in the past we all know that we have had involvement in two world wars, the Korea campaign and unfortunately too many other actions in combat or peacekeeping roles. We should remind readers that in the Second World War Canada had a population of 11.3 million people. Incredibly, 1.1 million Canadians or 10 per cent of our population served in the armed forces. We had the fourth largest Air Force and the fifth largest Navy in the world. Canadians suffered 45,000 dead and 54,000 wounded came home with injuries physical and mental that were too grievous to go into here. Sterner stuff would be hard to find anywhere. I am sure that if any enemy were to choose to test the will of Canadians in protecting our homeland they will find that they will bite off more than they could ever chew. Yes, the enemy is different now, harder to find as cowards usually are but the will of Canada is made of sterner stuff. Wayne Underhill Chilliwack

› Faith Today BY REV. WILLEM H. VAN DE WALL Cooke’s Presbyterian Church “Keep me safe, my God, for in you I take refuge. I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing.” I say of the holy people who are in the land, “They are the noble ones in whom is all my delight.” - Psalm 16: 1&2 n the 13th Century, Nicolo Polo was visiting the court of the grandson of Ghengis Khan—Kublai Khan. Kublai Khan was the Emperor of China and he had never met Europeans before. He was delighted to meet this visitor from Venice and he was strongly impressed by the faith of Polo. He spoke boldly about his God, Who loved him so much that He saved him through His Son, as Polo said, the Saviour of the world. Therefore Kublai Khan sent a letter back to Europe urging that some educated men be

dispatched to instruct his people in the teachings of Christianity. Kublai Khan had an urge to invest in God and His people. We live in a world where people are willing to invest everything they have to ensure a better future. And quite often they look back after something went sour and asked, “What was I thinking at the time?” That realization came for David after he had so many failures. What he thought was the right way for him to invest, went bad. He wanted to expand his kingdom; he wanted to gather as many possessions as possible and he even thought that he would invest in another man’s wife—Bathsheba.

David came to the realization that those things were of no essence. All it brought him were guilt, shame and embarrassment. From the dept of remorse and penitence David cried out to God. He then came to the realization that nothing else than God mattered in his life. He made it so clear in Psalm 16 – “Apart from You I have no good thing.” David wasn’t the only one who realized that delight in God alone brings a contentment that nothing else can compensate for. The wise Solomon said, “I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.” At this moment in time there are

thousands of people in the world chasing after happiness or delight and as they go from one thing to the next, they have to admit, “Nothing satisfies.” As you read this column and you search for that one thing that can bring contentment, I would urge you to do what David did, put God first and see what difference it will make in your life. After David delighted first of all in God, he delighted in other things in life. He mentioned the holy people in the land. He identified others who had been blessed by God and he rejoiced about that. How often do we really pay attention to those around us God brought in places to share His blessings with? Our world has embraced

the attitude: Everyone for himself. That’s wrong, because it’s going to create a world where people are very lonely. I don’t believe David had only God’s people at the time in mind. Surely he must have thought how others could be brought to God to be the glorious one in Him as well. We have to delight in all people as those who can be embraced in God’s love. David delighted also in God’s provisions in Psalm 16. He mentioned the boundary lines which had fallen for him in pleasant places. That meant that he acknowledged that what he received in life came from a loving God who opened His hands to His servant. Do you delight enough in God for what He gives you on a daily basis?

Evolution more than a guess BY KEVIN FRANCIS Special to the Times

n my never-ending quest to understand the universe and as such, ourselves, we often stumble upon interesting individuals whose world views have me scratching my head. Although well meaning, this “witness”of the divine insisted on debating the merits of Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution. As most of us have learned, the scientific theory of evolution and natural selection is at the base of the diversity of the flora and fauna on our little blue marble in space and reached consensus eons ago by the scientific community as the explanation of biodiversity including a remarkable specie of primate: homo sapiens. “Evolution isn’t true, anyway it’s just a theory!” The comment took me aback. Had I been religious, I might have been tempted to call blasphemy! It took me a second to recollect myself from the incredulous gaze I must had offered her. I then realized that the conversation had gone into semantics and although well intentioned, she didn’t understand what a scientific theory meant. It’s a common mistake and one easily rectifiable to anybody

with an high school education or explainable if you don’t. A “theory” is defined as a proposed explanation whose status is still conjectural; while a “scientific theory” is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on knowledge that has been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experimentation. In other words, our “witness” friend thought that the theory of evolution was nothing more than an educated, unproven guess. An easy mistake for sure but this educated guess in science is called a hypothesis (from French meaning base or under thesis, around 1640 AD), is it all coming back to you now? Once the hypothesis has been formulated, tested over and over, reproduced in laboratory experiments, peer reviewed and accepted by the scientific community; it is then called a theory. We now know more about evolution than electricity, yet I doubt that anybody would refute the existence of electricity. Except for the religious community, evolution is simply a fact, one that we can observe either in the fossil record or on a smaller time scale within bacteria and viruses. “My grandfather wasn’t a mon-

key!” she said in a rather indignant tone. Of course not! But the evidence clearly points out to a common ancestry with apes and all primates but extended on a time scale of a few millions years, it becomes easy to see the chronological ascension into what we are today. Even in one lifetime, we constantly change and evolve. Can you pinpoint the exact moment you stopped being an infant and became a kid, teen, adult, senior? Evolution is a gradual process, from Australopithecus Afarensis to Homo Sapiens and projection in the future where science tells us that our species will undergo much transformation. Will we then be able to call ourselves Sapiens or will we need a new designation? Life is always in motion and change. It has been our adaptability to change that has allowed us to survive this far, our minds too need to adapt to change; otherwise our fate will be the same as the dinosaurs.

Firefighter Shawn Burke (left) and public educator/fire inspector Lisa Axelson of the Chilliwack fire department serve lunch to children at McCammon elementary school through the Chilliwack Bowls of Hope Society’s “Feed the Children” program Friday. The firefighters will deliver food to two schools per month over the course of the school year, providing nutrition and an opportunity to connect with a smaller group of kids for mentorship. “When it’s about food, it leads more naturally to conversation,” said Cindy Waters, Bowls’ program co-ordinator. { HOT WHEELS, from page A1 } with savings and received as presents. On Nov. 8, a custom “Ultimate Track” will be built in his home by a team of track experts. (Yes, there is such a thing as Hot Wheels track experts.) He will also have a track party for over 20 of his friends, and he will receive a customized plaque. “I can’t wait to meet Ethan, I think this is just going to blow his mind,” said Danielle Minard, senior manager of consumer engagement for TrojanOne. Minard led the creation, and activation, of the Hot Wheels Track Builder Challenge. She and her team wanted the prize to be something customized to the winner. “If you had all the Hot Wheels { DELIGHT from page A10 } to delight on a daily basis, when we think of the lives we live. We live in one of the best countries, we have resources, we have enough food and water to last us a long time. The list is just going on and on. I think sometimes we get so caught up in making sure that things will

Limited only by imagination track you’d ever want, what would you do with it?” Minard asked. “And what would you do with it in your house if your parents would actually let you?” The TrojanOne team will arrive at Ethan’s home Friday and will map out a plan about which rooms will be used in the home and roughly how the track will be built. Assistant builder Andrew Smiles already has photos of the house and is thinking out his approach for whatever length of track is appropriate for the space. With more than 250 feet of Hot Wheels track at their disposal, the building team and children will only be limited by their imagination. Minard says that even though

they are using toys, to build on such a scale in a short period of time and involving a house full of children does require the adult planning. But they also want the experience to be participatory and will leave the track unfinished so Ethan and his guests are a part of the process. “There will be a lot of very excited six-year-olds in this house,” said Ethan’s mother Kim Davies. In addition to the winning celebration, all the Hot Wheels product not left with Ethan or his friends will be donated to the British Columbia and Yukon Children’s Wish Foundation on Nov. 10. Which will be a good thing for Ethan and his mother when friends go home and they turn to tidying the house up.

Delight comes on a daily basis work out in our lives and then we forget where we need to start with everything. Remember what Jesus said, “But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” Matthew 6: 33 God wants us to delight in

everything in life. Let’s come to Him on a daily basis to bless us. ◗ Rev. Willem H. van de Wall is the minister of Cooke’s Presbyterian Church and can be reached at 604792-2154 or rev.cookes@gmail.com.

What a difference a season can make BY GREG LAYCHAK glaychak@chilliwacktimes.com

fter seven weeks of regular season play, the Chiefs are finishing a welcome nineday break as the league heads into November’s schedule. The first months of the 2014-15 season the Chilliwack squad has seen a big change from last year’s Chiefs at this point in the timetable. A two-game losing streak is the team’s only “slump” to date. Compare that to 2013-14 when the team had collected three- and six-game winless streaks by early November. In fact, with a 2-9-1-2 record after 14 games last year, it seems the Chiefs have turned a complete reversal with this year’s early season results (10-3-0-1). It’s Jason Tatarnic’s first year coaching the Chilliwack crew, having

Greg Laychak/TIMES

The Chilliwack Chiefs take a knee to listen to instruction from head coach Jason Tatarnic Monday before practice at Prospera Centre.

“. . . that good start adds a little bit of pressure to our team and our staff, so we have to make sure we’re working even harder to continue those winning ways.” - Chiefs coach Jason Tatarnic replaced long-time Chiefs coach Harvey Smyl. “Anytime you’re new in a position

you want to do well, so [winning] takes a little bit of pressure off yourself,” said Tatarnic.

“But now that good start adds a little bit of pressure to our team and our staff, so we have to make sure

we’re working even harder to continue those winning ways.” He said they have to identify what they’ve done to win hockey games and keep instilling those habits in their players as the season continues. For the Chiefs, he said work ethic and utilizing the players’ speed have { See CHIEFS, page A16 }

Weekend home game great chance to honour veterans

he Chiefs are back on home ice this Saturday for a 7 p.m. showdown with Langley. This will be the first time these two Mainland Division foes will battle each other on Prospera Centre ice this season. Former Chief, Ben Butcher, calls Langley home once again, after an 11-game stint with Surrey, the 6’ 3”, 200 lb forward was dealt back to the Rivermen, where he initially started his BCHL career.

Barry Douglas Chiefs Report Ben is the brother of Matt, a former Chiefs captain, and the brothers are the sons of Garth, the former bruising blueliner for the Vancouver Canucks. Speaking of toughness, you won’t find anyone tougher

then a Second World War veteran. We are thrilled and honoured to have veteran Walter Georgeson dropping the ceremonial puck prior to this Saturday’s game (for a photo of Walter and his military medals see our Remembrance Day section on Page 24). Walter was 21 years old in 1944 and a member of the Royal Winnipeg Rifles, Third Canadian Infantry Division, Seventh Brigade, who were

part of 14,000 brave troops storming the German protected beaches of Normandy, France. His initial combat experience would prove to be life altering. Georgeson and his fellow soldiers fought through a hail of machine gun fire for close to three hours that day and remarkably overtook the Germans and secured the beachhead. There was not a lot of celebration as 340 Canadian

troops were killed and 574 were injured. A mere four days later on June 8, 1944, it would get a lot worse for Georgeson and his colleagues. They were attacking an airbase on foot and would encounter numerous tanks that were controlled by the German Panzer Division. Needless to say, it was a no-win situation, and Walter would be forced to surrender and become a prisoner of war.

For the next 333 tumultuous days he would be transported via box car from France to Belgium to Holland and Czechoslovakia while eating on average one bowl of cabbage soup per day. For a 30 day stretch he had no food at all. Walter, who lost close to 60 pounds, was extradited by the American Third Army led by General George S. Patton in May of 1945. { See BARRY, page A16 }

Graves steps away from Falcons

ardis Falcons senior boys basketball coach Kyle Graves recently announced he will be stepping away from the team. The following is a letter he submited to the Times.

To all Sardis secondary basketball fans and supporters: It is with great sadness that I have decided to step down as head coach of the 2014 -15 senior boys basketball team. After five years of coaching the team, three of those as a teacher-on-call in the Chilliwack School District, I am unable to provide as much of the energy and time that coaching the team requires, as the assignment given to me by the school district has me away from Sardis secondary. The unfortunate reality is that it

will be too difficult, both personally and professionally, to not be at the school every day developing and strengthening the great relationships I have built over the years with each of the returning players and all of the new players. I want to thank each and every one of you for all your support in helping build the Sardis boys basketball program into one of the top programs in the entire province. Without the support of parents, Sardis secondary staff and students, community sponsors and fans, middle school coaches and the amazing players we would not have been able to become the first boys’ basketball program in Chilliwack in over 60 years to earn a spot in the AAAA provincial tournament. We broke new ground in basket-

ball in Chilliwack by finishing 8th in the province in 2013, finishing 4th in the province in 2014, having multiple home game crowds of over 400 fans, earning back-to-back titles of having the best fans in the province, and sending three student athletes onto university basketball programs last year. Last, but not least, I’m so proud to say that in the last two years we have had 12 graduating seniors go on to study in university. These accomplishments should be shared by all of those who have supported Sardis basketball and I look forward to the continued success as this year’s team continues the tradition of success we have built over the last five years. Thank you again. Coach Kyle Graves

AS SEEN ON ARKETPLA CE C’S M Thanks Bruce I have a young family, a husband and three kids and my life is very complex. I needed choice, customization and spending a lot of money on glasses was something I couldn’t justify. My Great Glasses experience was awesome. I didn’t need an appointment for my eye test and I got three pairs of glasses for less than I paid for one pair at my regular optometrist. I couldn’t believe how great the deal was and how accommodating the staff were to me. I will not buy glasses anywhere but Great Glasses in the future. I’m so glad that Bruce was willing to fight for good customer value.

› Sports { CHIEFS, from page A13 } made them successful to this point—a combination that allows them to be good both offensively and defensively. Tatarnic and the team staff reviewed the last five games, and feel it’s time to revitalize that winning work ethic. The coach refuses to blame player injuries for their last two losses. “If you do have injuries other players have to step up, other players have to contribute,” he said. He said the team failed to play through that and find ways to win in their recent Merritt and Alberni Valley games. But the bruised roster should find some relief this coming

And wins for the Chiefs mean regaining top spot over Prince George, making the four points up for grabs this weekend valuable for both teams. ◗ The Chilliwack Chiefs travel to Langley Friday for a 7 p.m. game, then return to host the Rivermen Saturday at 7 p.m.

After concluding their 15th season in the BC Junior Football Association, the Valley Huskers are planning celebrations and activities to commemorate the milestone. The club is asking all past players, coaches and members that have been associated with the team over the last 15 years to contact the membership committee if they would like to participate. The committee asks to pass the message on to any family member or friend who was involved with the Huskers. Send contact information to Doreen, 604-792-9098 or email: sunset75@shaw.ca.

➤ GIANTS FOOTBALL Atom Blue

In the last game of the regular season, the Atom Blue Giants lost to the North Langley Bears 24-6 at McLeod Athletic Park. On offence, quarterback Tyler Kelly led the team with runs from the backfield, putting together some decent drives. Centre Andrew Fawcett and guard Adrian Gilbert offered protection on the line, and wide receiver Garrett Krieger contributed to the offensive game. On defence, starting linebacker Kaden Andersen was all over the field, and defensive end Lucas Feaver was the game MVP with two sacks and five solo tackles. On special teams, Wyatt Stobbs got a TD on a kick-off return reversing the field twice. His exciting run was marked at 70 yards, but

At 3-7 on the year, the Blue Giants look forward to next Saturday at Townsend Park for the Chilliwack “Poutine Bowl.” This year-end tournament will have all three Chilliwack Giants Atom level teams playing a round-robin format and a shootout for the Chilliwack championship.

Junior Bantam

The Junior Bantam Giants closed their regular season losing a nail-biter against the North Langley Bears 7-0. The Giants had a number of returning players back from injury trying to shake the rust off. Langley scored early in the second quarter on an interception return for a touchdown putting them ahead 7-0. The

Giants marched up and down the field but were unable to push the ball across the line. Several Giants players had outstanding games. Fullback Nick Butler was dominant running the ball and wingback Kurtis Flynn had a key catch to help the offence. Hudson Harvey was a stalwart on defence. Wyatt Hinchberger also played well in the loss.

When asked by the Times if he had an apology for veterans about the stunt, or if he thought it was a suitable place for the protest, weneedalaw.ca director Mike

peration Red Nose is gearing up with the help of dedicated volunteers to make the roads safer in Chilliwack this holiday season. From Nov. 28 to Dec. 31, the red-vested volunteers will be on the road to help people who feel unfit to drive get home safely in their own car. The Kiwanis Club of Sardis is co-ordinating the service again this year, with the help of volunteers from the community. The service is by donation and 100 per cent of these are turned over to local youth and amateur sports organizations. Each year, Operation Red Nose clients contribute $1.5 million to youth initiatives, from coast to coast. This year Operation Red Nose is operating its 31st campaign in Canada, and its 11th year in Chilliwack, with the service available in more than 100 host communities in seven Canadian provinces, with more than 56,000 volunteers across the country. This year’s campaign theme, “This Season, Hand the Reins Over to Us”, encourages motorists who had one too many, who are tired, or who are simply not able to drive their vehicle to call Operation Red Nose. Last year, the service provided almost 700 safe rides home in Chilliwack. In British Columbia, almost 5,000 volunteers provided more than 8,000 rides in 13 communities: Abbotsford/Mission, Burnaby, Chilliwack, Delta/Richmond, Kamloops, Langley/Surrey, Nanaimo, New Westminster, North Shore, Prince George, Ridge-Meadows, Tri-Cities and Williams Lake.

During this year’s campaign, the Operation Red Nose volunteers, headquartered in downtown Chilliwack, will be taking calls from party-goers with one goal in mind: to make roads and highways safer for everyone. The Operation Red Nose service is free, and is entirely provided by volunteers, and donations are always accepted. In each community, the Operation Red Nose campaign is hosted by a non-profit organization which organizes, with the help of the national office in Quebec City, the safe ride home service for their fellow citizens. “One hundred per cent of the client donations are given to local non-profit organizations that support youth and/or amateur sports,” says Jean-Marie De Koninck, founding president of Operation Red Nose. Founded in 1984, Operation Red Nose is a national road safety campaign against impaired driving. With the 2014 Operation Red Nose campaign set to start on Nov. 28, anyone interested in volunteering can pick up an application form from the RCMP Detachment on Airport Road in Chilliwack. You can also get information and an application form on the Operation Red Nose national website, operationnezrouge.com/ en. Volunteers fill out an application which includes a criminal record check. Returning volunteers must fill in a new application form each year. More information is available by emailing chilliwack@ operationrednose.com.

WE REMEMBER

Made of medal: Decorated veterans

Every year on Remembrance Day as soldiers participate in the ceremonies and events of the solemn memorial date, decorations and medals are pinned to their uniform on full display. While we see these objects of merit on many military occasions it can be forgotten that there are reasons, meanings and stories behind every piece mounted on a medal bar brooch. Today these symbols of valour are authorized by the Governor General on behalf of the Queen of Canada. But until 1967, when Canada evolved its unique honour system, Canadians who had served in major conflicts were eligible to be awarded Commonwealth decorations for their meritorious conduct. Though many medals are issued to those who served in theatres of war, Canadians have also received numerous honours for peacekeeping efforts around the globe. And there are also commemorative medals that mark anniversaries special to the life of the nation or to the monarch which are awarded to outstanding citizens and soldiers alike. All Canadian medals are mounted with senior medals on the right side (from the wearer’s perspective) of the left shoulder, and they follow a specific sequence from right to left. If there are more than five medals, they must be overlapped, with the most senior medal in full view on the right. Only the individuals who have received those symbols of courage and leadership can really know what it takes to be worthy of such honours. Below are some of the stories about the prestigious honours and what they mean to Chilliwack veterans of war.

HENRY JOHN MAYNE

TOM WALTON

The France and Germany Star was awarded for one day or more served in Belgium, France, Germany or Holland by military personnel between D-Day (June 6, 1944) and May 8, 1945.

The badge of the Order of Military Merit is given to members of the Canadian Forces who have been appointed to the order for demonstrating dedication beyond the call of duty.

Retired major Henry John Mayne joined the British Army in 1943 when he was 18.

On July 23, 1974 Tom Walton was a sergeant for the United Nations Peacekeeping Force in Cyprus (UNFICYP) during hostilities between the Greek and Turkish Cypriot communities. Walton was present during the Nicosia Airport battle, where he helped locate wounded to provide assistance.

Not long after, during the Second World War, he went across France and Belgium, finishing in northern Germany where he helped capture a naval barracks in Kiel. That service earned the young Mayne his France and Germany Star.

He was part of a four-man escort for a senior UNFICYP officer and acted without direction to negotiate for the welfare of 45 Greek prisoners in the hands of Turkish soldiers.

“It was quite an exciting time,” said the 89-year-old. “We figured the war was getting near the end because the Germans were retreating.”

“I almost got killed,” he said. “We were under constant fire for a whole day.”

Mayne added he values the medal because his service in Germany means something in his heart—where the star now appropriately rests on special occasions.

The wounded and dying he was helping that day had a lasting effect on Walton. For the next 25 years he had nightmares about that battle and was finally assessed with having post-traumatic stress disorder.

“It’s an important part of my life that I was actually in Germany when the war was completed,” he said. “It’s a long time ago, but it’s something I remember.”

His time in Cyprus earned Walton the Order of Military Merit badge (M.M.M.) and also the UN Forces in Cyprus medal.

WE REMEMBER

MARVIN JOHNSTON For retired chief warrant officer Marvin Johnston, it’s impossible to choose favourites from his long line of medals. “They all have a terrible amount of meaning,” said the 84-yearold. “I’m proud of them all.” Johnston’s decorations include medals for the Korean War, NATO service in Cold War Germany, coronation anniversaries and for good conduct. “I wear them every opportunity we have for formal and informal military or Korea veterans luncheons and dinners,” he said. While all of them are equally important to Johnston, he mentioned that it’s rare for someone to have all four coronation medals. And he was the only corporal in the Canadian Forces School of Military Engineering to receive the Queen Elizabeth II Coronation Medal at that time.

WE REMEMBER WALTER GEORGESON Walter Georgeson earned many medals in his four years of Second World War military service. Those four years (1942-45) were important for Georgeson, and the world. As a rifleman, he landed on Juno Beach on June 6, 1944 during the D-Day Normandy invasion with his Royal Winnipeg Rifles. This past summer, Georgeson now 91, returned to France to receive the Knight of the National Order of the Legion of Honour for recognition of his role in the battle. The French are giving the decoration to D-Day servicemen as thanks for freeing their country from German occupation. “Without us getting off the beachhead, France would have still been occupied by Hitler and their forces,” said Georgeson. Now on the left-most side of his medals, hangs the symbol of an order established by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1802.

KELMOR

While that foreign honour is highly prestigious, all of his medals mean a lot according to Georgeson. - from the Staff at Kelmor

May we never take for granted the important contribution these brave people have made to this great country, called Canada. To all who served and continue to serve, as well as their fine families, we respectfully offer our gratitude. Harry Mertin

WE REMEMBER same kind his father had earned. “I’m sure my dad was up there in heaven laughing at me,” said Jim.

JAMES HARRIS According to former private James Harris’ son Jim, medals had less significance to soldiers like his father who were coming out of the Second World War. A lot of the soldiers just wanted the war to be over so they could return to Canada. “My father’s were in a sock drawer, and I was six years old when I found them,” said Jim. “I sold three of them for six pence.” Jim later replaced them, finding the

His father James served from 193945 and started his active duty in southern England, stationed during the air war of the Battle of Britain waiting for nine divisions of German soldiers to invade. That service earned him the Defence Medal, and he subsequently joined the liberation of Holland and finished his term with five medals for his part in the war. James Harris died at the age of 49 from leukemia when Jim was 13 years old.

JIM HARRIS Jim Harris, the founding member and president of the Canadian Forces Base Chilliwack Historical Society (CFBCHS) doesn’t just gather and display war medals in his museum. The former Royal Canadian Engineer (RCE) master warrant officer has his own collection of earned decorations. Harris talks most about his UN Protection Force (UNPROFOR) medal from his Yugoslavia service. He was assigned to bomb disposal and said he faced death defying incidents at least three or four times a week.

Gladys Eva Rose and James Harris in Brighton in 1944. They married and moved to Toronto in 1947.

“I still got all my fingers and toes,” said Harris laughing. But educating civilians on avoiding explosives also got the 69-year-old’s interest. Though he was not formally recognized for his extra work, Harris said he visited scores of schools in the region. In Chilliwack, he was reunited coincidentally with one of the students from a school where he did peace work. That award might mean as much as any of the medals Harris earned during his 34 years of service.

When Karen Gorden’s husband Howard Gorden was a corporal with the Royal Canadian Engineers (RCE), he participated in Exercise Vacuum at the Defence Research Establishment Suffield (DRES).

Karen was given the Memorial Cross EIIR (also referred to as the Silver Cross) as the widow of a Canadian soldier whose death was a result of active duty.

While most medals are worn by those who directly served the military, there are circumstances that call for decoration awarded to family members of those soldiers.

He knew the pain of a sniper’s bullet through the leg and arm. But counted himself lucky to make it back to old blight alive, when so many others didn’t. It was V.E. Day, a time to celebrate. The Yanks were going to have a grand parade through town where the locals could admire them. There was to be a fireworks display at the town park. Everyone on our street was busy planning for the party next day. They raided their pantries for foodstuffs the had been hoarding. When grandfather came home that morning after his shift with the home guard, he was ranting and raving about how every house on the street had Union Jacks and red, white and blue buntings on display. Our house was they only one without a show of patriotic fervour. He directed everyone to get busy and find a flag as there had to be one somewhere in the house. Trunks, closets and boxes were turned out in the search for a flag. Eventually a whoop from grandma, she had found one in the attic. Unfortunately, when the flag was unfurled it was sporting a printed effigy of the old Queen Victoria, { See FLAG, page A28 }

They found one of the key remaining bridges wired with explosives and cut the electric circuits. Part way through the disarming of the charges, enemy soldiers opened fire on the group.

t was they end of a terrible war. The population was tired and fed up with the death and destruction, the bombings, rationing, shortages, blackouts, queueing for hours to find nothing left with which to feed their families. They were sick of the whole bloody mess. The only ones who didn’t care were the poor souls who were buried in the quiet graveyards, soon to be forgotten and those buried in foreign fields, never to be forgotten. The people on our street were delirious with relief, joy and the perception that the days of darkness and scrambling to air raid shelters would be over. Fathers, husbands, son and brothers would be coming home. Those who delivered the dreaded telegrams, the letters of condolence from the king, would cease to strike fear in the hearts of those who had loved ones in far away lands. Those loved ones would come back soon. Some would be whole, some would be wounded or disabled, but all would be changed. My grandfather knew about the effects of war. He was aware of it all. He had done his stint in the First World War. He had fought in the trenches after joining the army at the age of 15. He lied about his age. He learned from the older regulars, that a soldier had to keep his wits about

{ FLAG, from page A27 } right in the middle of the flag. The last time it had seen daylight was for the Jubilee in 1897. Grandfather was disgusted. He stomped out uttering words I had never heard before. Grandma and mother set about scouring any local source they could think of in search of a flag. Even the black marketers who supply anything and everything couldn’t raise a spare flag. Later that day grandfather returned victorious with a flag. And what a flag it was. A beautiful Union Jack, 20 feet by 30 feet! The cry went up. “How are we going to fly that?” Not to worry. Grandfather confiscated the clothes prop from the washing line. He nailed the flag to the prop and climbed up on the roof and strapped the pole to the chim-

ney. The rest of the family rushed outside to see and admire the great flag, gracefully waving in the breeze. It was a wondrous sight to behold. The next morning, the day of the street party, the family aroused to find the house somewhat dark. It was soon discovered that the culprit was the flag. It must have flapped more vigorously during the night. The flag had pulled the chimney off and was draped over the entire front of the house. It was covering the windows. In my five-year-old eyes I thought the effect was the most grand display I had ever seen since grandfather disposed of a phosphorous bomb that had landed outside our front door and set it on fire. There were tables set out down the middle of the street. They were covered with red, white and blue paper. There was lots of food offer-

A closeness that impelled them to share what little they had. They comforted those who had had tragedy touch their lives, bolstered each other when uncertainties of the future was everyone’s fear. Each and everyone was glad it was ended. The local newspaper sent a reporter to record the event. he took pictures of the party, the people, the feast and our great flag that gloriously covered the front of the house. Grandfather was so proud and chuffed by the attention. Grandma was most concerned about who was going to fix the chimney and when would she get the clothes prop back. But the terrible war was finally over.

Merging music and the military BY GREG LAYCHAK glaychak@chilliwacktimes.com

“She’s one of the very best that I’ve had the opportunity to work with on piano,” Kopstein said. Pelletier returns the praise, saying it’s a lot of fun playing with a “natural born entertainer” like Kopstein who knows how to make a crowd enjoy the show. “He has international experience . . . and it just brings a real cosmopolitan flavour to his personality and to how he interprets the pieces,” said the pianist. The merging of music and military comes naturally for Kopstein because of his long experience with both. Since retiring, the clarinet player has also been involved in collecting and producing a thorough body of recorded and written work about military bands including CDs and a book, as well as maintaining blogs and websites on the subject. “That was my profession and that’s why I’ve enjoyed carrying it on,” said Kopstein. “I have a passion for it.” As a young boy in Windsor, Ontario during the Second World War Kopstein’s father would take him to where the troops were shipping off to the front. Those memories stayed with him, influencing him to join the navy reserve as a clarinet player. At the age of 17 Kopstein got a chance to go on some ships in Esquimalt for a couple of months and was hooked. He soon applied for an audition and got into the Royal Canadian Regiment band.

P EADERSHIP RENWICK ride, spirit, fun, longing, praise, and good wishes—these are just some of the feelings Jack Kopstein hopes his audience experienced when he and Nita Pelletier played music from the two world wars Tuesday. Kopstein, a former military clarinet player for 35 years and Pelletier a local pianist with a long list of concerts on her musical resumé, teamed up this year at Chilliwack library to entertain a mostly senior crowd with well-known songs from the First and Second World Wars. You won’t find a call to arms in Kopstein’s program. The show called “Songs That Won the War” is all about memorial, according to the veteran musician. “They’re able to listen to one of the most enduring products of the war, and that was the music itself,” Kopstein said. Often the only thing people wanted to hold on to after a war is music from the era. The program was divided up into two categories of songs: those from the front and songs for the home front. The duo played tunes like “It’s a Long Way to Tipperary” to evoke a sense of place and “Till We Meet Again”, a piece designed to convey a feeling of longing. At times the crowd would sing along, especially to songs from the Second World War when radio

helped popularize music more rapidly than ever before. The two musicians met when Pelletier was band leader for the “Fiddler on the Roof” musical produced by the Chilliwack Academy of Music in the late ‘90s and have collaborated many times since. But this is the first time the friends have worked together on the remembrance project that Kopstein has performed for years with various musicians in different venues. He said it’s always a pleasure to work alongside Pelletier.

old onto your hats for November at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre, starring Red Robinson, Warren Miller, a trip to Golden Pond, a brandnew gallery show, arts and crafts classes, and more. It’s hard to believe November is here already, but you know what they say: time flies when you’re having fun. That’s exactly what we’ve been doing at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre—and how could we not, with so many great shows, events, and classes. And while November has only just started, it’s already looking just as exciting as October. There’s a class, show, or event at The Centre nearly every day, and there’s plenty of opportunity to come down and get a taste of culture and community. There’s a little something for everyone on tap this month, from old-time radio to glasswork classes, so don’t miss out. The month kicks off with radio legends Red Robinson and Rick Cluff in On The Air—a time machine through six decades of musical history and a rollicking ride through some of rock and roll’s best memories. Red and Rick are joined onstage by The Hot Mammas and Michael Sicoly, who bring the music to life in tributes to the Andrews Sisters, The Beatles, and so many more. This hit show only appears onstage a couple of times a year, and it’s definitely one you won’t want to miss. The show at the HUB International Theatre on Nov. 9 marks the first time it makes its way out of the Vancouver area—so let’s give it a warm Chilliwack welcome.

Chilliwack Cultural Centre We also play host to a ton of homegrown talent this month; The Chilliwack Players Guild brings their first production of the season to the stage with On Golden Pond. It’s a heartwarming comedy that opens conversation on the topic of family, the challenges of twilight years, the power of great love within families, and the difficulty and joy in accepting your family members for who they are. The HUB International Theatre also plays host to a healthy helping of other performances—including this year’s annual extreme snow sports film from Warren Miller Entertainment No Turning Back on Nov. 15. It takes audiences to the best of the best snow-capped mountains in the world, from Greece to Canada, and follows athletes who bravely tackle those toughest hills. And as always, there’s so much more to The Centre than theatre and music. We’ve got some really great classes coming up this month, including how to make glass beads, chainmail, soap, and more. Our craft rooms are always hopping with activity—so get in on the action. Whether pastels or pottery are your jam, we’ve got a spot just for you. Finally, if November has you thinking about Christmas, you’re not alone. We’re right there with you, and we’ve got you covered.

Head to one of our workshops to get the hang of making your own Christmas cards, Christmas tags, or Christmas ornaments. It’s fun for the whole family, and puts another extra-special personal layer on anything you plan to give this holiday season. And if you’re on the hunt for Christmas presents—may we humbly suggest a gift certificate to your favourite Cultural Centre? Our gift certificates can be used not only towards tickets, but also arts and crafts classes, music lessons, artwork from gallery shows—just about anything at the Centre. It’s really the perfect gift for all ages, whether your recipient wants to see a concert, take flute lessons, or attend our annual Chilliwack Art of Wine Festival. Best of all, the gift certificates never expire, so you can save them as long as you like and wait for the perfect class, show, or artwork to spend it on. Give the gift of art, theatre, and music. That about wraps up what we’re tackling this month, and there’s so much more to see and do than you can imagine. You can visit our website to find a comprehensive calendar of events, shows, and classes. You’ll also find all the ticketing information you could ever want, and links to our social media so you can stay up-to-date with The Centre on a daily basis. There’s plenty going on this November, so we’re absolutely excited to see it come to life—and we can’t wait to see you there. ◗ Dessa Bayrock is a communications specialist with the Chilliwack Cultural Centre.
