Toxic waste dominates candidates gathering

All-candidates meeting attracts massive crowd BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

o many faces. So many issues. So little time. Chilliwack city council candidates faced rapid-fire questions Monday evening in front of hundreds of voters hungry for a taste of what the 12 men and five women had to say on a broad range of topics. Nearly 500 people filled the main auditorium at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre for the first evening chance to hear from the 17 council candidates seeking the six seats on council. S Standard See mayoral, municipal issues council & school district question continue to be of importance and answers in this election: Pages 15 to 20 downtown revitalization, road improvement, homelessness and flood protection. Arguably the top issue of the election campaign so far, however, continues to steal attention: City council’s 2013 rezoning of an industrial property on Cannor Road near the Fraser River to allow for a toxic waste recycling facility.

A Chilliwack voter takes notes on the 17 city council candidates at a meeting Monday at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre.

Special interest groups play a role in election

f elected mayor, what will Sharon Gaetz, Cameron Hull or Raymond Cauchi do to save the bees? As if running an election campaign and dealing with the local media wasn’t enough to occupy the time and the minds of those running for civic office, candidates in municipalities across B.C. have been inundated with surveys and questionnaires from a huge range of special interest groups. The Canadian Homebuilders want to know where the candidates stand on development issues. Local environmental group The WaterWealth Project and various unions also looked to see where candidates stand. Members of the local First Nations community are asking candidates to make a proclamation, as Vancouver did, to state that the city sits on unceded aboriginal territory. The newly created Chilliwack Heritage Committee has asked the candidates a series of questions. And local anti-pipeline group PIPEUP issued a report card on candidates. It’s also been a long-standing rumour that some churches tell parishioners who to vote for, and which candidates most closely align with their values. Most of these surveys or Q&As or report cards come from environmental groups,

PAUL J. HENDERSON @peejayaitch keen to publicly present which candidates will even respond and, of those that do, what they had to say. But some special interest groups ask questions that the public never hear about. Some unions issue endorsements of certain candidates by way of a process that’s somewhat mysterious. Then there is the Canadian Homebuilders’ Association of the Fraser Valley (CHBAFV), an industry body for developers, which issued a questionnaire to candidates. The responses were to be sent out to members. Among the CHBAFV’s more interesting questions suggested public hearings were too onerous for developers: “With respect to the OCP/Rezoning process – is the public hearing system broken? i.e. when a developer purchases a property with a development in mind that meets the criteria of the OCP but requires rezoning – why is a public hearing necessary?” As for the more public comments by special interest groups: the Hazardous

Waste Coalition issued a press release just before last week’s mayor candidates meeting to talk about the 17,000-name petition opposing the rezoning for a toxic waste recycling facility near the Fraser River. The issue has proven to be so large, it has spread beyond Chilliwack, nationally and even internationally. (Margaret Atwood even called out Mayor Sharon Gaetz in a tweeted link to the petition to her half-million followers.) Sabrina Gidon, who created the petition, asked candidates after Monday’s meeting if they would sign. Kinder Morgan’s Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project is another potential environmental issue top of mind with citizens and candidates. The PIPE UP Network, the local group opposed to the pipeline twinning, which will triple its capacity, issued a report card on candidates based on a response to an online survey. Candidates Patti MacAhonic, Phill Bruce, Phillip Maxwell and Sam Waddington got an “A” from PIPE UP for their “commitment to municipal climate change action.” Dick Harrington and Jason Lum got a “B,” and Michael Kha and Brenda Currie, a “C.” The other nine candidates and all three mayor candi-

dates didn’t respond. Local environmental group The WaterWealth Project posted questionnaire results from city council candidates on a number of topics, including Kinder Morgan, Aevitas, and the protection of drinking water. On these questions, you will again see nothing from incumbent mayor Sharon Gaetz although challengers Cameron Hull and Raymond Cauchi responded. Ten council candidates responded, including: Patti MacAhonic, Phill Bruce, Richard Williams, Phillip Maxwell, Dick Harrington, Gerry Goosen, Jason Lum, Brenda Currie, Chris Kloot and Michael Kha. Jason Lum was the only incumbent who responded to the questionnaire by the Heritage Chilliwack Society. The Dogwood Initiative created a survey on the topic of oil and coal export projects. Only Phill Bruce, Brenda Currie, Dick Harrington and Sam Waddington responded. And, of course, the Times asked all mayor, council and school district candidates a number of questions and all responded. Check it out at www.chilliwacktimes.com/municipalelection.

Celebrating her seventh anniversary.

Wide range of topics for trustees BY GREG LAYCHAK glaychak@chilliwacktimes.com

trong wind and rain kept the numbers down to about 40 in attendance at last Thursday’s trustee candidate forum in Chilliwack secondary school’s alumni hall. Twelve of the 13 school board contenders were present at the District Parent Advisory Council (DPAC)-hosted event to answer questions about a range of topics, from this year’s labour dispute to class size and composition, and touching more than once on French immersion in secondary classes north of the freeway. Only Karen Conway’s chair sat empty in the middle of the long line of trustee candidates vying for one of the seven seats available on Chilliwack’s board of education. Diane Janzen, education director of the Seabird Island Band moderated the event, allowing each candidate a three-minute introduction before launching into DPAC questions. Candidates Barry Neufeld, Karen Jarvis and Marion Mussell shared their views on what the most important issue will be for the new board of education. Neufeld mentioned the need to make decisions as a group with regards to funding—something he acknowledged the board hasn’t accomplished yet. Jarvis looked at teamwork on a broader level outside of the school board, expressing the need to build relationships and understand the

positions of all stakeholders (parents, students, unions, etc.) as a foundation to address other issues. And first-time candidate Marion Mussell said the most important issue facing the new board would be looking at the opportunity it provides for students during the span of their school careers. When asked whether the board of trustees could have done more during the recent labour dispute, candidates Rob Stelmaschuk, Walt Krahn and John-Henry Harter all had different opinions. Stelmaschuk said the board never communicated any intent to do anything, and that more initiative to get out and be engaged was needed during the labour dispute. Incumbent and 35-year education veteran Krahn said he and the board were in almost daily contact with the B.C. School Trustees Association (BCSTA) but were asked to bow out, and were unable to be involved to the degree they wanted. “We didn’t lock them out, the government did,” he said. “It was absolutely removed from us.” And John-Henry Harter felt that the board had time as far back as the prior September to talk to staff about their concerns when teachers were still in phase-one job action. Harter added that there should have been more involvement (walking the picket lines) and better communication with the public about what the board was doing. And on the ever-important issue of class size and composition, trust-

ee contenders Heather Maahs, Ben Besler and Silvia Dyck had their opportunity to speak. Maahs mentioned Chilliwack’s class size situation is “fairly decent,” but that composition is always a problem that needs close attention. Besler would work with class sizes and split classes to hone in on the potential of students depending on their needs. And Dyck pointed to the success of the incumbent board during her service in increasing E.A. services and communication between teachers, principals and senior staff to find the best composition. Responding to the question of what value they would add if elected to a trustee position Martha Wiens, Dan Coulter and Paul McManus shared a diverse set of answers. Wiens said she’s spent many years on the board, has a love and passion for children and has been involved at a hands-on level—doing everything from making lunches to laundry for kids. A big proponent of keeping public education publicly administered and funded, Coulter said his value to the board is that he believes in fighting to keep it that way. And McManus’ greatest values according to the candidate are his abilities to think outside the box and develop vision—both skills he acquired from his business background. He added that his communication skills and experience in developing solutions to real problems are also assets for the position of school board trustee

Natural Relief for Your Cold and Flu

› News { ELECTION, from page A1 }

Keep taxes low and ‘volunteer’ whether the question was homelessness or the Lickman Road overpass, was about how the city’s website needs to be easier to navigate and provide more information for residents. Phill Bruce, who is a paramedic and instructor, emphasized his interest in public safety and emergency preparedness. Bruce said with a onein-50 chance of an “extremely huge flood” on the Fraser River, the city needs to lobby the provincial and federal government to get dikes up to par. He also said the Aevitas facility needs to be moved to higher ground. Kim Harder said, with regard to social issues, city hall should take a methodical and collaborative approach, and take the moral high ground with other levels of government. Sue Attrill listed various projects the city has completed during her term as a city councillor while not taking on debt. She defended council’s Aevitas rezoning, saying those opposed are spreading misinformation. “Don’t always necessarily believe everything that you hear out there.” Michael Kha said he fully supports the city’s downtown revitalization plan, and he added that teamwork and respect among council is important. Brenda Currie received big applause when she talked about poverty and residents getting involved with non-profit groups. “Volunteer,” she said. “Help out.” Phillip Maxwell added to the

chorus of those opposed to the toxic waste plant on the Fraser, and challenged voters to suggest a new location. On CEPCO, Sam Waddington said he supports the arms-length corporation’s work. When asked about taxes, he said he agrees with keeping taxes at the rate of inflation. He also emphasized the importance of flood protection for the city. On flood protection, Jason Lum said, as chair of the committee devoted to flood control at the Lower Mainland Local Government Association, he has lobbied the provincial government for more funding and will continue to do so. Lum said CEPCO is “integral,” but the city needs to do more to communicate what the corporation does. And on downtown revitalization, Lum said there are many systemic problems (e.g. mental health, poverty) but that voters can be part of the solution. “You can be part of that positive change,” he said, to much applause. Stewart McLean was asked a question about the toxic waste recycling facility. He said the Ministry of the Environment has the final say, and the company will be forced to sign a detailed covenant at city hall. “We did not go into this with our eyes closed.” On the dropping crime rate coupled with community perception to the contrary, Ken Popove said more could be done with regard to mental health issues and addictions that

The format of Monday’s meeting included introductions followed by a series of questions asked not to all 17, but each to a randomly selected group of three or four candidates. Here’s a snapshot of what they had to say: Dick Harrington not only emphasized his ongoing and resolute opposition to the planned Aevitas Inc. toxic waste recycling facility near the Fraser River, but he said also that the Kinder Morgan pipeline expansion project is not worth the risk. Answering a question about that pipeline expansion project as it runs through Chilliwack, Chuck Stam said he did not think the city would be saddled with cleanup costs if there were to be an oil spill. He added that the company has answered the city’s questions “haphazardly” and that’s why the city is intervening, through the Fraser Valley Regional District, in the National Energy Board hearings. Responding to a question about improving information to the public from city hall, Stam pointed to the city’s website. He also suggested the media does “a good job,” but added that usually the subjects are “hotter topics,” which can lead to “misinformation.” Gerry Goosen answered most questions by complimenting or agreeing with the current city council. He said he fully supports the Chilliwack Economic Partners Corporation (CEPCO). Asked about the city’s contribution to social issues, he said homelessness is a problem inasmuch as it affects property values. Richard Williams’ main focus,

◗ Publisher

ou’ve been to one or more of the all-candidates meetings. Check. You’ve read both local newspapers and have enjoyed their informative and comprehensive work on what the candidates have said and offered voters. Check. You’ve gone online to visit the many candidate websites and have read through, with a discerning eye, their platforms. Check. You’ve visited one of the eight polling stations and made your mark. Check. Well, we’ll take the last one on faith. This Saturday, Nov. 15, is an important one in the history of this city. We need to redeem ourselves from the last election where we failed to fully respect the right, the responsibility and the privilege of voting. We won’t make that mistake this time around. Whether it was apathy over the lack of a mayor’s race or just plain voter disinterest, the last time voters were asked to make their mark it was an abysmal showing. There’s no need for it this time around. We have a mayor’s race, we have a large field of candidates in both the council and school board races and the rules have changed for Cultus Lake, making your vote carry even greater weight. Go vote.

Seeking transformative change A

year ago, on Nov. 6, 2013, Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond released “When Talk Trumped Service: A Decade of Lost Opportunity for Aboriginal Children and Youth in B.C.” In this hard hitting report, the Representative for Children and Youth (RCYO) scolded cabinet ministers, bureaucrats, and Chiefs. The RCYO chastised MCFD and Chiefs for spending $66 million over 12 years for endless chatter. Ms. Turpel-Lafond shamed the B.C. government into funding only direct services for Aboriginal children. On Nov. 8, 2013, the Stó:lo Tribal Council Chiefs Council met. We reviewed the RCYO Report recommendations. We withdrew our support for the BC First Nations Child and Family Wellness Council. Our Chiefs supported the RCYO advice and recommendations. Chiefs decided to improve children and family services. Since then, we advocated for strengthening governance, improved services, increased funding and renewal of child welfare policy. In May 2010, the Stó:lo Tribal Council Chiefs appointed me to the First Nations Health Council. Chief Maureen Chapman, Willie Charlie, and I represent the 32 Fraser Salish Chiefs on

DOUG KELLY Be Our Guest the First Nations Health Council. On Dec. 13, 2011, the Fraser Salish Health Caucus inked a Regional Partnership Accord with the Fraser Health Authority. Through this partnership, Fraser Salish Chiefs achieved shared decision-making on health services. Together we seek improved services by working from shared priorities and plan. With Fraser Health, we seek improved health outcomes for our children, families, and communities. In June 2014, the Fraser Salish Chiefs approved a Regional Health & Wellness Plan. This plan guides the work of our community health programs, Fraser Health Authority and the First Nations Health Authority. Our Regional Health plan sets goals for primary care, public health and health literacy, and mental health and substance use. Working together, we will address health priorities. Fraser Salish Chiefs also set goals for the Social Determinants of Health.

Fraser Salish Chiefs decided to improve services for all children and families. Fraser Salish Chiefs want to improve the governance and accountability of the Ministry of Children and Family Services, Aboriginal Delegated Agencies, and other service providers. Fraser Salish Chiefs also approved goals for housing, environment, and employment. The First Nations Health Council and Fraser Salish Chiefs want transformative change. The process of change is not easy, even when that change is good for us. The process of change results in conflict. We know that some folks will fear change and support the status quo. While other folks fear the status quo and will advocate for change. Before we set out to take on the challenges of transformative change—we need a vision. Fraser Salish Chiefs are working together to achieve our Vision Statement—“Healthy, Self-Determining, Vibrant Children, Families, and Communities.” Fraser Salish Chiefs and health leaders work together. The journey to transformative change requires engagement and dialogue. We set up working groups to provide advice

and support to Maureen Chapman, Willie Charlie and me. Through these working groups, we will carry out the direction given by Fraser Salish Chiefs. We know that we cannot do this work of transformative change on our own. We need partners. The Fraser Salish Chiefs are not prepared to leave the work of transformation to our children and grandchildren. We will work with willing partners to achieve transformative change. This means that we must overcome the forces of status quo. We shall do so through airing out fears, doubts and concerns. We will convert fears and concerns into a powerful mandate for transformative change. The Stó:lo Tribal Council (STC) chiefs appreciate the dedication, passion, and love for children that Turpel-Lafond carries in her work as the RCYO. A year ago, the STC offered our public support to help. Since June, Fraser Salish Chiefs are working a plan to achieve “Healthy, Self-Determining, Vibrant Children, Families, and Communities.” ◗ Grand Chief Doug Kelly is president and STC representative to First Nations Health Council Stó:lo Tribal Council.

It may sound weird, but in times of trials, God is our comfort and serenity and we always asked for his help and guidance. We’ve become closer to HIM during our difficult times. We were not felt alone because we knew He was always living with us, looking upon us all. Thank you, my second home Canada. I always think that everything happened for a reason. I believed that God has a good plan for me and for everyone of us; and I just thought, I just thought that maybe this is the reason why God sent me here. I have always had that and it still remains my dreams to help others in need in any small way. On behalf of my relatives and other victims

of Haiyan, and from the bottom of my heart, thank you all so much for all your kind-hearted overwhelming help and support that you’ve all done to make this great cause possible. Glory to God to the highest that I able to met you all. Thank you for touching our lives in your all amazing way. God bless you all for you’re generosity and kindness. God speed. Monique Baker Chilliwack

Check best before date Editor: Do politicians have a best before date? Some do. Some don’t. One only needs to look at our federal government and reflect on Brian Mulroney and Jean Chretien to see what can happen to an organization when a politician stays too long. What about local government? When an incumbent trustee seldom enters into debate, makes less than five substantive motions during a threeyear term, abstains on critical issues and about 80 per cent of the time only seconds motions made by one other trustee, there appears to be a disconnect. On Nov. 15, Chilliwack voters hopefully will mark their ballots for incumbents based on their contribution to policy development, leadership in the boardroom and stated positions on educational issues rather than attending teas, name recognition or community/church affiliation. Further, there are outstanding candidates

other than incumbents running for school board this year. For these challengers, the non-incumbents, please do your homework. Their names may not be as familiar but at least three of them deserve to get elected. It really is time for change. Doug McKay Chilliwack

Cat lady will be missed Re: Cat lady (Times, Oct. 30). I am writing in support of Ena Vermeris, Chilliwack’s famous cat lady and operator of the Safe Haven. Ena has been a large part of this community for years and should never have been forced out of the Save Haven. To say there was no conflict there is not true. I was a volunteer there a few years ago and there was conflict then. My friend, Anne, was also a volunteer who had been at the haven since the beginning and was very good at what she did, cleaning and feeding the cats and also giving cats medications. One day she was abruptly fired (who in the world fires a volunteer?), for no reason other than the board did not like her, so I was told by a board member. That same board member followed me around as I fed the cats. I had been doing it for two years and knew what I was doing. She insisted that she wasn’t spying on me, but I knew she was. I soon quit as I didn’t like what was going on. This was Ena’s life and she was treated unfairly. They are telling everyone she retired but she was forced out. I hope everyone gets together and tries to get rid of the board and reinstates Ena to her rightful position. Ena has done a lot for this community with her spay and neuter program and her feral cat roundup. She will be missed. Gail Hamanishi Sardis { See LETTERS, page A1O }

Editor: One year ago was one of the saddest days of my life when the strongest typhoon Haiyan hit my home City Tacloban, Philippines on Nov. 7, 2013 (which is also my birthday). It was a terrible nightmare indeed, thinking it wasn’t real at all. But when reality kicked in, I thought I was going crazy; especially when I coudn’t contact my youngest brother who lives there along with his young family, for three days. For two nights and three days I stayed up calling them and every contact number I’ve seen posted on Facebook on where to call in Tacloban but to no avail. Thankfully, after three days, I was able to hear my youngest brother’s voice. He was safe and survived along with his young family, but I was deeply saddened when I was told that eight of my relatives along with their houses was washed away and went missing. Until now, six of them are still missing. One of my three aunts, who had been missing, was found hanging in the ceiling of her house. My seven-year-old nephew was found buried in the mud with debris— barely recognizable. We were all thinking that some of our lost relatives might be already buried in the mass grave. Today, I would like to take this chance to thank you all for your heartwarming support and reaching out to my relatives and other victims of super typhoon Haiyan to help rebuild their life again. Thank you so much Chilliwack Times for taking my plight to ask for help for all those victims including my relatives. Because, through you, a lot of good people in the Lower Mainland sent their support. We were able to send 10 big boxes of clothings, can goods, blankets, tents, air matteresses, sleeping bags and other material things and sent it by ocean cargo. Also, we were able to collected $925 cash.

Editor: Re: Faith Today: Evolution More Than Guess, Times, Nov. 6. Mr. Francis contends that evolution is simply a fact, one that we can observe. The term “evolution” means different things to different people and in different contexts. We all know that there are trait variations within families and that mutations cause damage to DNA but Mr. Francis is referring to the much more fanciful concept that evolution turned non-living molecules into people over millions, no make that billions of years. That kind of “goo to you” evolution, directed only by pure dumb luck, can’t be observed or repeated in the lab; it can only be imagined. If you are impressed by a “scientific

Please remember, brevity is the soul of wit. theory,” wait until you meet up with a “scientific law.” There are no known exceptions to scientific laws and they are observable and repeatable. The entire concept of evolution defies the Second Law of Thermodynamics. The Second Law, when applied to information, reveals that as time progresses information deteriorates.

DNA is information so it tends toward gibberish as time goes on. Passed from one person to another, as time elapses in the game of telephone, the mantra of atheists becomes something like, “There is no Dog.” If evolution is true, information must increase over time, but that is scientifically impossible. So why do so many scientists believe in evolution if it’s impossible? Well, Mr. Francis hit the nail on the head— worldview. People who claim to be atheists or agnostics know they need some explanation for their existence, so they think evolution allows them to intellectually dispense with God. Romans 1:18 calls their bluff explaining that they “suppress the truth.” Scientists who are in rebellion toward our Creator deny what is crystal clear to them and as in Romans 1:25 have “exchanged the truth of God for a lie.” Dwayne Spies Chilliwack

Never meant to offend our veterans Editor: Re: Pro-life flag display at Chilliwack Museum. As the organizers of last Saturday’s educational event, we would like to clarify that we followed all the rules the City of Chilliwack set before us. We were given written permission from the director of Corporate Services to proceed with our event. It was only a day before the event was to take place that the city tried to prevent it from happening without giving reasons or citing any potential bylaw infraction. We can only assume that it was because of the message. The flag display took place on the Chilliwack Museum grounds of which the cenotaph is a part of. The

location was chosen because of its high visibility and exposure to foot traffic. While many connections could aptly be made between the cenotaph (which incidentally means “a monument erected in honour of a person or group of people whose remains are elsewhere”) that was not the reason we chose this location. We hope veterans and citizens of the City of Chilliwack understand that our intention was never to connect our display to Remembrance Day.

Chiefs torpedo hapless Rivermen

Mainland Division TEAM GP Prince George 21 Chilliwack 16 Langley 20 Coquitlam 21 Surrey 19

BY GREG LAYCHAK glaychak@chilliwacktimes.com

uke McColgan and Craig Puffer tallied twice each to help the Chilliwack Chiefs take their second game of a series against the Langley Rivermen 7-1 Saturday, making up for Friday’s loss. Friday saw a close back-and-forth game in Langley, where Tipper Higgins scored in the second period to tie things up going into the final frame. That goal extended his game point streak to seven (he went to eight going into Wednesday’s contest). Early in the last third of the game Rivermen Kevan Kilistoff and Marcus

Darren Francis photo

Chilliwack’s Tipper Higgins goes down fighting for the puck near the Langley net Saturday at Prospera Centre during the first game of two against the Rivermen over the weekend. Vela gave Langley a two-goal advantage. And though Brandon Potomak, in his first game back from injury, scored an unassisted goal late in the

final period the score stayed 3-2 for the Rivermen. Friday’s loss handed the Chiefs a winless streak of three, their longest of the season to date.

But Saturday’s home blowout reversed that trend, earning the local team win number 11 and bumping up some stats. McColgan’s pair of goals included

W 12 11 9 8 3

L 7 4 7 11 13

T 0 0 1 0 0

OL 2 1 3 2 3

TP 26 23 22 18 9

a power-play shot in the first period and his second short-handed goal of the season in the third frame. The final period saw most of the action, with a total of six goals scored and 30 penalties, most of them misconducts or post-whistle roughing. Puffer netted both of his goals in the last third of the game placing him at second in the league for goal scoring with 17 total. Other Chiefs goals were scored by Rory Bell, Jake Larson and Olivier Arseneau in a shooting spree that ended the night with Chilliwack out-firing the Rivermen 46-21. After Saturday’s game, goalie Aiden Pelino is second in the Mainland division for both wins (tied with 7) and save percentage (.913). ◗ The Chiefs travel to Powell River Friday, Port Alberni Saturday and finish their away tour in Nanaimo on Sunday before returning to host Prince George Nov. 19.

Clippers should present toughest weekend challenge

he Chilliwack hockey scene is still buzzing following the Chiefs most recent home game, a 7-1 win over Langley last Saturday. The highly enthusiastic crowd of 3,023 witnessed a spirited bout that featured a two-goal performance by Luke McColgan and a 20-save effort by the super steady Aiden Pelino. Pelino improved his record to 7-3 while dropping his goals against average to 2.69, and increasing his save percentage to .913. Hats off to the students of Greendale and Yarrow elementary schools who helped create

Barry Douglas Chiefs Report an atmosphere we have not felt in a few years. Each school was invited by their respective adopt-a-school sponsors, Chilliwack Golf Club and IHOP, as part of the Western Concrete Adpot a School program. In all 21 schools have been adopted this season and each school received 10 season tickets. As a special bonus for the 25th season of Chiefs hockey, each sponsor is also providing

a game where every single student and one guest gets to attend the same game. The Chiefs will need their “sea legs” this coming weekend as they embark on their first of two Vancouver Island road trips this season. This initial three-day journey will start with a Friday night contest at the Hap Parker Arena in Powell River, followed by a Saturday night match up at Weyerhaeuser Arena (AKA The Dog Pound) versus Alberni Valley. The trip will conclude with a Sunday matinee at the Frank Crane Arena against Nanaimo. While all three opponents

for the Chiefs this weekend will be a major challenge, the Clippers should be the stiffest test as Mike Vandekamp’s squad sits in first place on the Island, sporting a 14-6 record with an impressive 8-1 home ice mark. The Clips play a home game on Friday versus Alberni Valley and have Saturday night off. Nanaimo is the only team of the three who have yet to play the Chiefs in Chilliwack this season. The boys from the Hub City will be at Prospera Centre on Jan. 2. The next time the Chiefs step onto the ice at the friendly confines of Prospera Centre, will be on Wednesday, Nov. 19,

when the Spruce Kings from Prince George pay a visit. The Chiefs and the boys from the great white north have been jockeying for first place in the Mainland Division all season and are playing each other as tight as a Russell Wilson spiral. In the three head-to-head games to date, Chilliwack has squeaked out a pair of one goal wins while the Kings have a 6-4 victory to their credit. For those of you who have been asking if the Chiefs will bring back Chuck a Puck, I can now answer with a very big “yes.” Starting in December, McDonalds Chuck a Puck will be in action at all Chiefs home

games during the second intermission.The cost will just be $1 per puck with all proceeds going to the Chiefs/UFV education scholarship fund, and you will have a chance to win prizes each game with all McDonalds Chuck a Puck participants going into a draw, to win a signed Chiefs jersey, at the end of the season. Remember you can keep up to date with the Chiefs on various social media avenues: become a friend on our Facebook page; follow us on Twitter @chiefs_hockey; on Instagram @CHWKCHIEFS and we have a free Chilliwack Chiefs app you can download.

• Parent Involvement • Student Success • Effective Governance Not allowing the building of a toxic waste facility on the Fraser. I could work with both the land owner and Aevitas, be creative, and find a better place to build the facility. The protection of our farmland. I can work with our farming community to keep valuable land within the ALR. What also happens when we take land out of the ALR for housing we artificialy keep land prices down slowing any return on house prices.

RAYMOND CAUCHI

Do you support city hall’s downtown revitalization agenda, which includes purchasing buildings to create a development ready property? If so, why? If not, what’s the alternative?

Our present council is taking bold moves to revitalize our downtown. At many all-candidates meetings in previous years, this issue came up and I believe people lost hope that our downtown could ever be, once again, bustling and alive with people on the street. We consulted with our citizens, engaged the most qualified Urban Development Consultants and the assembly of land was one of their recommendations. We started working in earnest. We have assembled land and will soon begin marketing it. I envision downtown to be similar to the very successful Garrison Crossing. Check out our vision at www.chilliwackdowntownplan.ca.

No. Whereas I am not against the city owning land for rental revenue. I am against the city buying land for speculative purposes. Which is what the downtown plan is. The alternative is allow the market to dictate when is a good time to redevelop. Then use the permitting process to have a hand in future uses for the downtown.

Yes, I do given that it is done responsibly and with due consideration. I’m open to civic/ private co-sponsorship to reduce the cost on the tax payer but still achieve the goal of completing such a development. I support this because such revitalization can be done while maintaining Chilliwack’s cultural heritage and such a revitalization will also help reduce the crime and danger in the community. I do not support acting without the consent of the community (citizens who work and live in the downtown core). And, I am willing to work collaboratively until such consent is achieved.

Citizen Safety - As Mayor I will promote engagement amongst community members as an initial step to increasing safety throughout Chilliwack and Sardis. I will work to empower the citizen’s of Chilliwack to reclaim their safety and security. I will support the idea of increased funds to first responders and to having community input as to the nature and needs that they have regarding the delivery of first response services. Heritage Protection and Economic Development - Small business is the heart of Chilliwack, and these businesses are as much a part of our heritage as buildings and practices. When large box stores or industrial companies come to Chilliwack it is important that the council develop and foster policy that protects small business.

It is tempting for governments to spend beyond their means and to borrow on our children’s future. Due to the fiscal prudence of our council and previous councils, we are the envy of other cities. We do not incur debt and thereby avoid paying interest charges. We enjoy the lowest taxes in the Lower Mainland and have the lowest business tax burden. I will continue to lead council in long range planning for things that our City needs and desires. I will continue to advocate for low taxes so that businesses can prosper, people have jobs and more money in their pockets.

FOR CULTUS LAKE COMMISSIONER

CHILLIWACK COUNCIL RACE Name one or two important issues that should be priorities for the new city council, and what can you do to help? Sue Attrill Crime reduction and safety will continue to be a priority for me. Our citizens deserve to feel safe and protected in Chilliwack. I have supported additional RCMP resources but that is not the only answer. We need to attack crime from Attrill all angles and at all levels of government. A strong local economy ensures our quality of life. I want our kids to have opportunities right here at home. Keeping taxes low helps to foster healthy business. We need to bring employers to provide jobs at all levels of education. Business attraction is enhanced by the quality of life our city provides. Phil Bruce The new city council must work on having a better understanding of most of the issues that are voted on. Studying each issue thoroughly Bruce by looking at all the information, research, hard evidence, and due diligence, will make a city council that makes better decisions for the community.

facing breach of trust charges for following the philosophy of his mayor and council. One of the charges involves not only following the pro-development philosophy of then Mayor John Les and his council but, as approving officer, providing Les with preferential treatment on one of his own development proposals. Known for his ability to CUT through red tape. . . . Why is this man Consulting Aevitas Inc. on the Hazardous Waste Plant on the banks of the Fraser River? Brenda Currie Jobs, we need good jobs for our young people. Crime: we need to support all groups like RCMP and Crime StopCurrie pers and community policing and Blockwatch. Gerry Goosen First, safety of my community is of paramount importance, citizens need to feel and be safe. They need to know that Chilliwack council takes their issues seriously and that all efforts are made to relegate policing to protect high risk areas. Second, as Goosen Chilliwack continues to grow we need to expand our infrastructure to keep up with the growth. Improvements are required for access to various areas, particularly Promontory, Young Road Rail Crossing and Vedder Bridge replacement. As a councillor I would be involved in the planning, budgeting and development processes.

nity. Plenty of evidence exists to show that engaging youth early on creates healthier, safer and therefore, one could say, stronger communities. Recently Abbotsford’s Youth Health Centre, which has been operating for five years, received a Premier’s Award for Innovation. Previous initiatives indicate a need for Harder something like that here. Furthermore, the Chilliwack Healthier Community Strategic Action Plan identifies as a broad community goal the creation of “opportunities for all youth to contribute to and participate in ongoing community development.” I would provide the momentum and leadership to see these worthwhile projects and goals established and achieved. Dick Harrington Firstly, for three years, people have been telling me that they don’t vote because they are not listened to, that there is no “Democracy” at city hall and that decisions are made in the backrooms without a proper democratic debate. All major decisions should be Harrington discussed openly, with full debate from councillors and the public. Secondly, I am calling for a city-wide WiFi system, patterned after that of Fredericton, N.B. Their system is run, at a profit, by the city. With an original investment of $65,000, their system is highly successful. This system runs AT NO COST to the taxpayer. My third issue is a downtown revitalization that is also non-profit, in that no TAX Dollars are used to run the system.

LEADERSHIP. CHANGE. RESULTS.

Unlike CEPCO, which has received millions of tax dollars over the years, my system would be run by an active board of volunteers who would work to bring new investment to the city. Why continue to waste tax dollars to accomplish a service that can be done on its own? Michael Kha An important issue that requires immediate attention is maintenance to our existing infrastructures. I would support repairs to roads, (especially the back roads) that need it. I would support roundabouts where they are needed to prevent accidents from happening and crosswalks in areas where it is impossible Kha or unsafe to cross the street. There are some roads that should be widened (Promontory and Watson as an example) but I understand that we need to work with the First Nations in order to accomplish that. But we need to take care of the basics that keep our city beautiful before we can move on to different projects.

Building our community. Preserving our park.

CHILLIWACK COUNCIL RACE Name one or two important issues that should be priorities for the new city council, and what can you do to help? { COUNCIL, from page A16 } This leads me to my second point, (2) transportation and congestion, for instance widening of Promontory Rd/Watson interchange and working closely with First Nation leaders in seeing better access to Promontory and immediately open discussions with the province regarding Lickman Road interchange to be rebuilt and/or replaced. Continue working on planning for future growth and the infrastructure requirements that come along with it. Work on better options for seniors and those with disabilities to maneuver around the city.

Jason Lum I believe the issues the next council will face will be related to affordability and quality of life. How will we balance rising costs, population growth, sustainability, and a competitive economic development landscape, while ensuring Chilliwack stays one of the best places to live, work, and play? I have a proven track record Lum as a forward-thinking voice on council. I am not afraid to look at the issues facing local government and respond with innovative new ideas. I have also worked hard to build partnerships in the private sector, and relationships with senior levels of government. In short, I have the skill set, and proven experience for the job.

Patti MacAhonic We need a vision, a vision that we be the best city of our size in Canada with a high quality of life where people choose to live and work. Components would be good leisure and recreational opportunities while supporting cultural life. Provide choices in housing, work, transport and

lifestyle opportunities. Have accessible services and a variety of integrated transport options that include walking and cycling. Ensure public spaces are accessible, MacAhonic well-used and safe. Be a healthy place to live, and have low levels of crime. We can work collaboratively to make this happen by planning based on long-term vision and coordinated implementation. Phillip Maxwell Two important issues that need to be priority for the new city council are economic development and community safety. With economic development the city centre revitalization project needs to be fast tracked and this would promote new business, new residential areas, and Maxwell new open green areas to bring back the heart of our city. For community safety, I would increase the funding to community policing to increase community patrols, Blockwatch and bike patrols. No new taxes will be increased to accomplish this but to redistribute existing funds. Stewart McLean Continue to maintain our low taxes and debtfree status. By taking an active role in the deliberations before council in regard to how we plan and come to decisions around McLean our budget planning and long-term planning. We need as a city council to continue seeing the growth of our local economy as this is where employment

comes from. By seeing the development of our local economy and new jobs is what allows council to continue the development and growth of resources which support all of our members of the community. Continue to promote our community as a great place to live, work and play. Continue to encourage business to consider our community as the right place for them to relocate and develop. In conjunction with this we need to continue to encourage and support our own resources such as agriculture and the protection of agricultural lands as agriculture is a very large part of our local economy. Ken Popove The first major priority is the congestion issues with Prest Road and Lickman Road. I plan to fasttrack this issue. As we expand as a community it is of the utmost importance that we continue to improve all areas of Chilliwack. The second priority is the homelessness we have here in Chilliwack. With 74 documented homeless, we need to find a solution. There Popove are current efforts being pursued to tackle this issue, and I plan to work with those involved in hopes to build an infrastructure that is best suited for the people who need it. Chuck Stam Public safety/crime. Our police/bylaw teams need to be supported and monitored with responsive adjustments and proviStam sion of the right tools when and where needed. City council needs to build a working relationship and understanding with

partners in the justice branch to communicate the dire impact that the few prolific offenders are having on our community and the costs to our residents. Pedestrian/ Bicycling/Transit connectivity. Investment in our trails and bike lanes has provided some pretty incredible results and we need to advance funding to our 2014-2024 Bicycling Network Plan to create the needed options to our vehicles. Sam Waddington We need to look at building a forward-looking economic strategy that will help to give confidence and guidance to those looking to build businesses and invest in Chilliwack. Our community must look at what sets us apart in the Fraser Valley and focus on the promotion and Waddington growth of our tourism industry. We have so many amazing natural assets surrounding our city, and I believe that if we made a concerted effort to commercialize some of that potential we could create a new, vibrant and sustainable economic driver in our community. Richard Williams First, transparency and public engagement—specifically what information is available to the public, how it is presented, how feedback is dealt with/ recorded as well as more refWilliams erendums for key items. There needs to be a person on council focusing on improving the city website and policies/ bylaws in these areas. Second, investments in technology based services and infrastructure for present and future growth.

Candidate Q&As

We asked five questions of your school board trustee candidates. Space allowed us to publish one response. Find the other four online at www. chilliwacktimes.com. Two of the 13 candidates chose not to respond.

CHILLIWACK SCHOOL BOARD RACE What is the most important challenge facing Chilliwack public schools today, and how would you address it as a trustee?

Dan Coulter The biggest problem facing the Chilliwack school district and all other districts is funding. With increasing cost pressures and no increases in per pupil funding our schools are being negatively affected. As a trustee I will address this by continuing my advocacy to increase Coulter funding. I will do this by continuing to encourage the Chilliwack board of education to speak up for public education. If we are to implement the B.C. education plan and the recommendations following our special education review we need the funds. Sylvia Dyck The most important challenge is improving student achievement in an arena of high expectations, continually reduced funding, and strained relationships. Locally we continue to strive for Dyck respectful working relationships with, I believe, some success. The funding issue requires

joint efforts by engaging the community in understanding that the demographic and economic data has driven public education to the bottom of government’s priority list. We continue to advocate. John-Henry Harter Underfunding of public education funding is one of the most pressing challenges. Issues with class size and composition, and the resulting lack of resources to address it, all stem from this chronic underfunding. I would work with all partner groups and include teachers and staff in discussions around how we can work together for a healthy, vibrant, properly funded pubHarter lic education system. While I cannot unilaterally increase funding I can make sure this view is clearly represented at the budgeting process and I can also advocate, publicly and consistently, for stable, adequate funding. Karen Jarvis We are challenged with meeting the needs of all students effectively and with appropriate funding in place. Morale in our district is low because of the lack of support. Encouragement goes a long way and I get the sense that some employees are feeling Jarvis very discouraged. I will continue to shine the light on what the needs are in our district and work towards goals of appropriate funding to support all students. I will encourage others and be available to staff, students and parents. Walter Krahn Our most important challenge is to meet the needs of every learner. We can accomplish this

through increases in student support and in additional learning resources. Funding has not kept pace with inflation or the provincially mandated cost increases (MSP premiums, hydro, gas, CUPE contract, CPP and EI). Krahn When this occurs, year after year, services and supports to students are negatively impacted. I will continue to support prioritizing budget allocations toward classroom support and will continue to advocate for adequate funding. Heather Maahs Our graduation rate is the biggest challenge. The rate of graduation has not changed in 10 years. We need to look at early learning to see where the problem is first occurring. We should reinstate Maahs the very successful resource and early learning programs as safety nets to catch these students before they hit the middle school levels where we see the drop in achievement. Paul McManus Our biggest, and most important challenge, is a lack of adequate funding. We need to present a more united front in lobbying the government for adequate funding, banding together with other school boards, teachers, McManus parents, and special interest groups to ramp up the pressure on government. We can’t do it alone—we need numbers. We must also re-visit our budget to ensure that we are financially efficient and responsible. Finally, we need to think outside the box, and con-

sider what other funding sources may exist. Our funding is in dire straits. It’s time to get creative. Barry Neufeld I believe the most important challenge is to improve the graduation rate, or more accurately the secondary school completion rate. Too many of our students, especially aboriginal students leave school before they have enough skills to find sufficient employment to support a family above the poverty line. However, getting those last few students “past the finishing line” will Neufeld require considerably more resources: we will need increased funding to lower the teacher/student ratio, as disengaged students need at least one staff member to connect with. And we need to identify students at risk of dropping out earlier. Rob Stelsmachuk Get money from the government’s B.C. Skills for Jobs Blueprint and start applying it to the kids who are interested. Students interested in it from Grades 10 to 12 can get the training now while their interest is high. When you finish 12 years of Stelsmachuk school you want a job not another two or three years of education and a loan payment. Martha Wiens There is more than one challenge facing education in Chilliwack today. Trustees must acknowledge all problems Wiens and find a balance in favour of all children.

Ben Besler There are many challenges facing Chilliwack public schools, but the greatest challenge I see, is increasing our graduation rate.

It should be the hope and dream of every candidate for school trustee, to see every student who has enrolled in our district, make it to graduation.

Things have changed when it comes to voting for commissioners sitting on the Cultus Lake Park Board On the Chilliwack ballot (two elected) Scott Allinott BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

Darcy Bauer

David Renwick

Malcolm Shanks Carlton Toews

On the Cultus Lake ballot (three elected)

o say the political structure that governs Cultus Lake is misunderstood would be an understatement. Surrounded by the City of Chilliwack, Fraser Valley Regional District Area H, Cultus Lake Provincial Park and the Soowahlie Indian Reserve, the approximately 1,000 properties in Cultus Lake Park are managed by a board of elected commissioners. There is nothing else like this in the province. The Cultus Lake Park Board (CLPB) is not a municipal government in the sense that the City of Chilliwack is one. Cultus Lake Park is managed under a unique provincial statute, the Cultus Lake Park Act of 1932. This act essentially states that the City of Chilliwack owns the land at Cultus but has very little say in the park’s management. This is done by the CLPB, which was, until this year, made up of seven elected officials, five voted on by Chilliwack residents and two by Cultus residents. Eighty years ago, it made sense to have a board manage the area, which was set aside for the residents

Charlotte Hall Joe Lamb of Chilliwack. Over the years, the Park became more and more of a residential enclave rather and a getaway for Chilliwack residents. In 2004, the Cultus Lake Governance Committee was created to try to work out a new model for the community. This failed. The options were village status, amalgamation with Chilliwack or status quo. The provincial government said village status was out, and amalgamation with the city was the only choice. Chilliwack city hall said “no way” to amalgamation unless the province stepped up with money to pay for the considerable costs. Then there is the Soowahlie First Nation, who says its aboriginal

Larry Payeur Rose Turcasso title to the area that constitutes Cultus Lake Park has not been extinguished just because of the Cultus Lake Park Act. The band doesn’t like the status quo either, but until federal and provincial issue are resolved, imperfect as it is, the status quo remains. What has changed comes by way of Bill 27 introduced this year by Chilliwack-Hope MLA Laurie Throness in response to a petition created by Cultus residents Sue and Gary Lister. Bill 27, the Cultus Lake Park Amendment Act 2014, was passed by the Legislature and reduced the number of CLPB commissioners from seven to five. Three of those five are now voted on by Cultus residents, and two by Chilliwack residents.

ill 27 is not the only move out of Victoria that changed things for residents of Cultus

Lake. The Fraser Valley Regional District (FVRD) electoral areas are, in some ways, awkward geographical regions that surround the cities of Chilliwack and Abbotsford, not to mention the lakes, mountains and valleys of the rural areas around us.

Until this election, Electoral Area E made up the Chilliwack River Valley, Cultus Lake, Lindell Beach and the Columbia Valley. Areas that, other than as-the-crow-flies proximity, have little in common. The provincial government responded to the need for change and, this year, Electoral Area H was born. Area E is now only the Chilliwack River Valley, the directorship of which will be contested on Nov. 15 between Orion Engar and Leanne

Sprintor brings team element to golf BY GREG LAYCHAK glaychak@chilliwacktimes.com

TO:

MEMBERS OF SHXW’ŌWHÁMEL FIRST NATION

TAKE NOTICE that a Ratification Vote will be held in accordance with the Shxw’ōwhámel First Nation Community Ratification Process on Sunday December 14, 2014 in order to determine if Registered Voters approve the Shxw’ōwhámel First Nation Land Code and the Individual Agreement.

oung adults are teeing-off less than their baby-boomer seniors, and the sport of golf is facing an even bigger fall-off of interest among youth. “It’s a society of instant gratification these days,” said Laura Taylor, Chilliwack Golf & Country Club’s (CG&CC) sales and events co-ordinator. “That’s always a challenge with golf, getting the youth involved.” And that’s one reason why the golf club is teaming up with Martin Clarke, a Montreal resident to bring his new sport Sprintor golf out to the Fraser Valley. The local course will be hosting a Sprintor tournament run by Clarke on Nov. 29 with all proceeds going to the Chilliwack Bowls of Hope Society. Unlike speed golf, the older more familiar running version of the traditional sport, Sprintor is in a team format. Sprintor squads are made of a “drivor” for shots over 180 yards, a “strikor” for those mid-range iron shots, and a “puttor” for the team’s short game. In addition, an optional “portor” position can be included on the team for carrying supplies and clubs. “Not everybody is good at golf,” said Clarke. “Some people are good at driving, some people are good at putting . . . it’s hard to be

NOTICE OF VOTE

The following question will be asked of the Registered Voters of the Shxw’ōwhámel First Nation by ballot: “Do you approve: · The Shxw’ōwhámel First Nation Land Code, dated October 23, 2014 and · The Individual Agreement with Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Canada?” The Ratification Vote will take place on Sunday, the 14 day of December from 8 a.m. until 8 p.m. at: Fraser Valley Regional District Recreation, Culture and Airpark Services 1005 – 6th Avenue, Hope BC, V0X 1L4 Copies of the Background Documents, the Ratification Documents and the Ratification Process may be obtained from: Sharlena Johnny, Lands Officer, Shxw’ōwhámel First Nation, 58700A St Elmo Rd., Hope, BC, V0X 1L2.

Kaleb Fisher (left) and Laura Taylor sample the running portion of Sprintor golf, a new variation of the game coming to Chiliwack. good at all the different shots.” Everyone is encouraged to play, from families and students to serious golfers who want a change of pace. “Our initial findings were a lot of people saying, ‘Oh, golf and running: no thanks. Golf is [already] hard, why would I want to run?’” said the retired Energizer marketer. “Yet those that tried it really liked it, and they really like the team aspect.” The scoring system is based on

each team’s time and golf score, with each stroke being equivalent to 100 seconds. That weight keeps the emphasis on the golf score, but still rewards teams for completing the nine holes quickly. Penalties are stacked on to a team’s total points for failing to rake sand traps or running on the greens. Clarke introduced the sport this summer in Ottawa and Montreal in a league format, but Chilliwack will see the very first Sprintor “tournenvent”.

Because of the speed of the game (players are expected to finish nine holes in as few as 35 minutes), trials are an important part of preparation. When speeds are determined, order of tee-off can be organized so players aren’t holding up the teams behind them. ◗ Trials will be held at CG&CC on Nov. 21 and 28 from 2:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. Teams can sign up in person at the golf course and Ascend Fitness, or online at sprintorgolf. com/Chilliwack.

AND FURTHER TAKE NOTICE that all Members of Shxw’ōwhámel First Nation 18 years of age or older as of the date of the Ratification Vote are eligible to vote, PROVIDED THAT SUCH MEMBERS MUST COMPLETE A VOTER REGISTRATION DOCUMENT TO BE PLACED ON THE LIST OF REGISTERED VOTERS.
