Gravel foes say they’re ‘losing confidence’ in City Council Robert Freeman The Progress Residents opposed to the proposed expansion of a gravel quarry on Vedder Mountain say they’ve lost confidence in Chilliwack city council after reading documents obtained through a freedom of information request.

But Mayor Gaetz insisted the City has not approved the proposal, and is following the procedure mandated by provincial legislation.

“The City has certainly not given approval,” she said in a telephone interview Friday.

The documents appear to suggest the City had already given conditional approval to the proposal which includes a conveyor to carry gravel down the mountainside - back in March, although Gaetz was telling residents and the media in October that she couldn’t comment on the proposal because the City had received no application from quarry owner Bryan Kirkness.

But Gaetz said Friday the application to the City for zoning changes is distinct from the application to the provincial mines ministry.

She said the letter obtained by the residents is the City’s response to a referral from the Integrated Land Management Bureau, which asks for comment on the application to the mines ministry.

The City has no input into the proposed expansion of the quarry on Crown land, but does have input into the use of lands for a proposed conveyor and storage area, which would require a zoning change and an amendment to the official community plan (OCP) both of which would require public hearings.

“Nowhere in the letter do we say we’ve made up our mind,” Gaetz said.

The March 12 email states it contains “the City’s approval subject to the conditions noted above,” which include the required zoning and OCP changes and public hearings.

But Gaetz said that “approval” refers only to informing the ILMB that if provincial approval is granted, the matter would still need to come before city council, where it may be abandoned without further consideration, or moved to come before a future public hearing.

“We’re not short-circuiting the process,” Gaetz said. “(The residents) should not make the City their enemy.”

Police investigate the scene where the driver of this pickup truck struck a 75-year-old woman at Mary Street and Ontraio Avenue on Saturday morning. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS

Senior in crosswalk hit by truck 75-year-old woman with walker dies of injuries Robert Freeman The Progress A 75-year-old woman using a walker died from injuries after she was hit by a truck as she crossed the street Saturday morning at Mary Street and Ontario Avenue.

Police said a truck travelling south on Mary Street at about 11:20 a.m. had turned east on Ontario Avenue when it struck the woman who was crossing at a marked crosswalk.

“The male driver, age 45, of Chilliwack, did not see the female and remained on scene, providing assistance until

The

emergency personnel arrived,” RCMP Cpl. Lea-Anne Dunlop said in a news release.

The woman was airlifted to Royal Columbian Hospital for treatment, but died later from her injuries. Police are not releasing the woman’s name.

Witness Chris Janzen said he was one of the first on the scene, and although he believes the driver wasn’t at fault, he worries about the increasing number of large trucks on the streets of Chilliwack.

He urged the owners to reconsider their choice of a large truck, which dwarf a pedestrian and are therefore

more likely to cause severe injuries.

“If it was a car the person might not have died,” he said, about the Saturday incident. “It was the most horrific thing I have ever seen.”

Dunlop said RCMP victim services were called in “to assist both the driver and the family of the female victim in this tragic incident.”

“This is a tragic example of the need for both drivers and pedestrians to pay close attention in, and around, crosswalks,” she said.

A police investigation continues, and anyone who witnessed the incident but has not yet talked to police is asked to call the Chilliwack RCMP at 604-7924611.

Watchdog calls for better way to report threats to kids Katie Bartel The Progress The case of a disabled child left with her dead mother for days has prompted B.C.’s child watchdog to demand changes to the way the B.C. children’s ministry reports critical injury and death.

In a special report released Monday, Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond, representative for children and youth, criticized the Ministry of Children and Family Development

(MCFD) for its “unacceptably deficient” and outdated policy for how and when it notifies the representative’s office of critical injuries and death.

The special report was issued after a Chilliwack teenager with Down’s syndrome was left home alone with her dead mother for days in September. Turpel-Lafond didn’t learn of the case until two months later, and only after hearing about it through media reports.

“This case really put a stark light

onto the problems we’re having with the ministry when they don’t think they have to report things,” said Turpel-Lafond, who noted there have been other “critical” cases that were also not reported.

“My obligation as the representative is to ensure to the public that there is a very good system in place,” she said. “I am not confident,” the system is working right now, and “I am concerned that public confidence in the system has been affected.”

The ministry’s policy was created in 2004, before the Representative for Children and Youth Act (RCYA) was enacted.

The policy was designed for a different purpose, said Turpel-Lafond.

Under the current policy, the representative is only notified in cases where a critical injury has occurred to a child who has been receiving ministry services for the past year.

Critical injury, as defined by the ministry, includes death or serious impairment of a child’s health as

determined by a medical practitioner.

However, the RCYA requires all critical injuries to children who have received any ministry service within the past year be immediately reported.

Also under the ministry policy, “serious incidents” are not reported unless the incident occurs while the child is in the ministry’s placement or is placed with an approved caregiver or family.

Raw milk farmer in contempt, avoids penalty Black Press The former operator of a Chilliwack-based cow-sharing co-op has been found in contempt of court for illegally distributing raw milk but isn’t expected to be punished.

Alice Jongerden of Home On The Range dairy “willfully disobeyed” a March 2010 court order barring her from making raw milk available to cow-share members, a B.C. Supreme Court judge ruled Dec. 2.

But because Jongerden left the business this fall, turning the cows over to new operator Michael Schmidt – a raw milk activist farmer from Ontario – she won’t be penalized.

Schmidt, operating under the name Our Cows, says he intends to market the unpasteurized dairy products for cosmetic purposes.

“It doesn’t affect us at all,”

said Schmidt, who denies drinkable milk will still flow to members. “We’re having a whole cosmetic line of Cleopatra bathing milk, facial mask, body lotion and stuff like that.”

Health officials aren’t yet convinced that will be the case.

Jongerden tried to skirt B.C.’s law banning the sale or distribution of unpasteurized milk by simply slapping on “not for human consumption” labels.

Justice Nathan Smith ruled Jongerden must have known her clients would disregard the label and continue to drink the milk as they had before.

Fraser Health spokesman Roy Thorpe said health officers intend to wait 30 days to ensure Jongerden doesn’t appeal the decision and then take a close look at Schmidt’s operation.

Heritage Park deal gets extension Jennifer Feinberg The Progress The agreement between the Heritage Park operator and the City of Chilliwack was extended to the end of 2011, to give everyone time to prepare for a new Request for Proposal process.

Chilliwack council approved the recommendation Friday in Harrison Hot Springs at their annual budget meeting.

The eight-month extension anticipates a change in provincial legislation which now requires all service agreements over $75,000 to be awarded through a Request for Proposal process.

Heritage Park’s current operation and management agreement was set to expire in April 2011, but now it will remain in place until December 2011, confirmed Mayor Sharon Gaetz.

Under the current deal, the city pays the operator $195,180 a year to manage and run the site, and the city also covers about $100,000 in annual utility costs for the site.

Last year 250,000 people came through the doors at Heritage Park for a total of 100 events, said Gaetz.

“Last year (the operator) made money, about $100,000 and about $50,000 came back to the city,” she said. “So that’s a first, and overall the city has nothing but good things to say about the way Heritage Park has been run.”

The constant challenge is balancing the need to be financially viable, with satisfying the needs of local recreational users.

Council also received an independent assessment of the operation and management of Heritage Park by consulting firm, Professional Environmental

Recreation Consultants Ltd or PERC. In the PERC report, it’s clear there’s a discrepancy between the priority uses as described by the operator, compared to the actual wording of the operation and management agreement.

“While at least one representative of equestrian users had concerns that equestrian uses should be given more priority, and that fees were too high for that category of use, if the agreement were more rigorously applied (special events trumping local use), equestrian users would be in a worse position than they are now.”

The consultant’s report commends the operator, Chilliwack Community Arts Council, for “doing quite a good job,” managing the 65-acre site and 150,000 square foot multi-purpose building, and suggests the Arts Council is a Continued: PARK/ p6

Body identified as fugitive from correctional centre Robert Freeman The Progress Police have identified the body found in a remote area west of Chilliwack as Dale Edward Koenders, who has been unlawfully at large from the Chilliwack Correctional Centre since July.

An autopsy again indicated no evidence of foul play. Cause of death is being determined by the BC Coroners’ Office.

Dental records confirmed the remains found Nov. 25 near Progress Way by a woman walking her dog are those of Koenders, who failed to return to the correctional centre on July 8.

A Canada-wide warrant for the arrest of the 46-year-old was issued at the time.

Koenders had been designated a dangerous offender after convictions for sex offences in the Chemainus area on Vancouver Island between 1985 and 1987.

Police say their investigation is now complete, but the investigation by the BC Coroners’ Office continues. rfreeman@theprogress.com

Chilliwack city council is looking at using zoning restrictions to control where medical marijuana operations can be located in the future. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The biggest issue is public safety,â&#x20AC;? said Chilliwack Mayor Sharon Gaetz.

Council voted Monday to give city staff a mandate to explore ways to develop such a bylaw.

City officials are aware of the

existence of about 60 medical growops in the city, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But because of privacy regulations, we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know about all of them.â&#x20AC;?

In Chilliwackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s residential areas, there can be huge medical grows licensed by the federal government without restrictions on the number of plants, stated the mayor.

And depending on the number of lights, how it is being powered or where the grow is being ventilated, it can pose certain dangers for the community at large, Gaetz said.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;That being said, we respect the privacy of those who use medical marijuana. But part of our frustration is with the federal government, which doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem poised to make any decisions on the use of marijuana. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So we can only use our limited tools, which are basically zoning changes.â&#x20AC;?

Other communities have taken similar action.

Pitt Meadows officials passed a â&#x20AC;&#x153;land use amendmentâ&#x20AC;? for controlling grow-op proliferation.

Zoning and OCP approval still needed for gravel plan, says city

‘Grey areas’ GREY from p3 Serious incidents include a child facing life-threatening circumstances, a child who has been abused or neglected while in the care of an approved caregiver, or a child exposed to a high-risk situation that may cause emotional trauma. All of which the RCYA “clearly defines” as critical injuries.

The critical injury policy is too narrow in scope, said Turpel-Lafond. “This needs to be rectified, but it requires the attention of senior ministry officials.”

The report recommended the ministry develop a new critical injury and death notification policy that complies with the RCYA. The definition of critical injury in the new policy should include life-threatening circumstances, abuse or neglect and high risk situations. And a medical assessment should not be required, under the new policy, before notification is given to the representative.

Turpel-Lafond has requested MCFD have a policy draft in place by Jan. 7, 2011 and a finalized policy in place by March 1, 2011.

In an email statement to The Progress, an MCFD official acknowledged its current policy does have “grey areas that need to be addressed.”

“The report released [Monday] is one the ministry is treating very seriously and the recommendation is one we support,” he said.

• The representative’s investigation into the case of the Down’s syndrome teenager is continuing.

However, Victor Froese, a spokesman for the Vedder Mountain Preservation Group, said the residents are concerned the City’s conditions were not fully spelled out in the March 12 email, which could lead to a favorable decision by the ILMB. The City’s approval process would only begin if provincial approval is granted.

Froese said there is no mention in the email that the two properties are within a development permit area

The cow-sharing co-op model was used originally to get around B.C.’s rules banning the sale of raw milk.

Farmers are allowed to drink their own raw milk, so it was argued the 450 co-op members across the Lower Mainland weren’t buying milk – they were simply drinking the liquid dividends from their partshare in the operation.

Medical health officers say raw milk is dangerous and linked to documented outbreaks of illness in North America.

A controversial gravel quarry in the Chilliwack River Valley was recently approved by the mines ministry, even though it is in an area where mining would not be allowed under the APP.

Raw milk dispute “If we think there’s still a violation going on, we’ll consider further action at that time, but we have to take a waitand-see approach.”

Thorpe said Fraser Health has also asked Health Canada, which regulates cosmetic products, to examine Our Cows.

Unpasteurized raw milk is defined as a health hazard in B.C. Justice Smith ruled the prohibition on distributing raw milk is “absolute” and that simply warning consumers not to drink it isn’t enough.

“It is not for the court to consider the merits of the public policy or the science on which that legislation is based,” he found.

“Ms. Jongerden may favour a system that permits the distribution of raw milk with appropri-

restricting land use because of past landslides, or that a covenant restricts land use on one of the properties after a consultant’s report found it “not suited for residential development.”

Residential development was a proposed end use of the land in the application to the mines ministry, once gravel mining is completed.

Froese said the ILMB’s decision whether to approve the application is based in part on the information it gets from the City.

Council reviews options on Heritage Park PARK from p3 “good candidate” to be the operator in a new deal.

The report underlined that “the public interest is certainly being protected, and public benefits are certainly being delivered at a very high level.”

But the consultant also warned there is “potential for conflict” over the “special event” mandate and the “local recreation” mandate.

“The Agreement clearly sets out priorities that indicate that if and when that conflict manifests itself, the local recreation uses will be subjugated to the primary event accommodating mandate of the site.”

The PERC report pointed out the current operator has generally a very good relationship with user groups and the customers are “satisfied” with

operator’s level of service and support.

“Regardless of any ‘fault’ or anxiety about the past, this situation has caused conflicts which could continue with any future operator of the Site that applies the City’s priorities unless those priorities are changed in a new Agreement,” the report reads.

“The consultant cannot suggest or recommend anything that can be done differently/ better by the Operator to more effectively manage the conflicts when they arise. They have persisted for 10 years through changes in staff, and several discussions about how to resolve the concerns.”

So now council has three options, in the consultant’s view.

Continue with status quo, work with current operator to deliver more benefits, or aggressively try to deliver more benefits with an alternate operator.

But regardless of which option city officials choose, the report recommended that thee city: • Try to resolve the conflicts between local users and the ‘large event’ mandate of the site, • Review and potentially adjust the level of life cycle maintenance over the next 10 years, and, if additional development of underused outdoor spaces is desired, finance such development, and • Fine-tune the existing agreement to deal with a number of relatively minor clarifying issues.

The approved extension of the park operator agreement to the end of 2011 was not a surprise, and stakeholders knew there were changes in the legislation coming.

“Heritage Park has been a success story,” said Rod

Hudson, executive director of the Chilliwack Community Arts Council, which operates Heritage Park.

The working relationships that have been fostered between the operator, the city, local users and larger event organizers have been “very good” over the past 10 years, he said.

It has been “a struggle” at times to find that balance of needs, he underlined.

But they’re nonetheless pleased with the consultant’s report and its findings.

“We’re looking forward to working with the city down the road,” Hudson said.

There’s clear potential to develop the sprawling park site even further, as referenced in the consultant’s report.

“We would also like to discuss how to take that forward,” he added. jfeinberg@theprogress.com

Smoking blamed for fire that injures man www.

A Chilliwack man who apparently fell asleep on his couch while smoking suffered second-degree burns to his legs, fire officials said.

An alert neighbour

called 911 at about 3:51 a.m. Saturday after seeing fire in the house located in the 9600-block Skrhelam Crescent.

Firefighters found the lone occupant suffering

5-09F CF1

from smoke inhalation and second-degree burns to his legs.

The fire was located in a couch on the second floor and extinguished.

Preliminary investigation indicates the man fell asleep on the couch while smoking, officials said.

The man awoke to the

sound of the fire alarm, and tried to put out the couch fire using a portable extinguisher and a pot of water.

Aside from the lone occupant’s injuries, fire damages were limited to the couch and smoke damages to the majority of the house.

It started with a simple act of kindness.

And now that kindness is being pushed forward, with Chilliwack residents invited to play a part.

A few weeks ago someone brought an aging Toyota Corolla into West End Auto Body, and asked if the repair shop knew anybody who might need it.

The staff accepted the donation and the search began for a deserving recipient.

It was a good car, says West End manager Jeff Engelbrecht. But it needed a little work. Staff put on a couple new fenders, fixed some dents and gave the vehicle a new paint job.

In the meantime, “a friend of a friend” found someone who would benefit from refurbished wheels.

She was a single mom with a couple of kids and all the usual challenges of getting them to and from school, music lessons and anywhere else a busy family needed to be – only without a car.

When told she would now have a vehicle, said Engelbrecht, “She broke down crying.”

“Doesn’t anybody else need it more than me?” she asked.

No, said Engelbrecht. In fact, everyone has been so touched by her response, they’ve taken it a step further. Fountain Tire has offered a new set of tires; Lordco Auto Parts has provided a roadside emergency kit; and Hub International is giving a refurbished computer.

But the effort isn’t ending there.

And that’s were Chilliwack residents can get involved. West End is currently trying to raise enough cash to pay for the vehicle’s first year of insurance.

And, when the car is finally handed over, they hope to have it filled with non-perishable food items. Any food donated, Engelbrecht adds, will be matched by one of his suppliers.

Engelbrecht says he wants to keep the whole thing low key. If anyone wants to take part in this “random act of kindness,” they can bring their donations to West End Auto Body, 45825 Airport Rd.

New buses cut costs, emissions Chilliwack school district is getting three new â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;greenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; school buses.

The school district was approved for three, 84 passenger diesel buses to the tune of $415,500 by the Ministry of Education.

The new buses will replace

three of the five older model propane buses the district still operates.

The cleaner-burning diesel buses will reduce fuel emissions by 90 per cent compared to the previous model.

Fuel efficiency will also be improved by 30 to 60 per cent,

and the buses are expected to last longer than the previous model.

The move towards the cleaner-burning diesel buses is in line with the provincial governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 33 per cent by 2020.

Funding helps teach English to new Canadians The Chilliwack area is getting $116,000 from the B.C. government to deliver free English language programs to immigrants and refugees.

The funding allows a coordinator to recruit volunteer tutors and to match them up with immigrants and refugees who want to improve their English language skills.

The $116,000 is split between the Chilliwack Cory Pope, a Grade 12 student at Chilliwack senior, gets his head shaved by Erica Stoney of Bijou Body Salon during the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Movember fundraiser on Tuesday.

Politics claims another

The Chilliwack

Progress

R AESIDE

Politics in B.C. has always been a take-no-prisoners bloodsport. For proof, one need look no further than the bookend resignations of Gordon Campbell and Carole James.

Neither wanted to give up their posts as Liberal and NDP leaders; both were almost forced out by a small band of dissidents and provincial polling that suggested they had outstayed their welcome.

No one said the job of party leader would be easy but it’s particularly tough in B.C., where politics are polarized and elections are fought like mixed martial arts battles. Leaders need the confidence of 100% of their caucus, not 84% which, is roughly what both James and Campbell had toward the end of their tenures.

Without popular support inside and outside the party, they were lame ducks.

The two deserve credit for showing leadership where it was needed by stepping down early enough in the election cycle for the two parties to rebuild, and the province benefited from both their strengths. Campbell was innovative and made some great leaps forward in acknowledging climate change and the steps needed to reverse it; James was collaborative and willing to reach out to sectors not usually friends of NDP, such as small business.

But both faced challenges from insiders who felt a new brand was necessary for the parties to revive before the May 2013 election. James was criticized for being dull, unimaginative and slow to take advantage of Liberal gaffes; Campbell was denounced as out of touch and dictatorial.

In the end, both leaders faced the impossible task of trying to win over critics and reunite their parties.

In the final analysis, some may say Carol James was as much a victim of the harmonized sales tax decision as Gordon Campbell. James failed to gain mileage from this much-hated public policy compared to Bill Vander Zalm, who managed to revive his reputation. While he fed the media a daily diet of blistering attacks against the HST, James offered a less exciting but possibly more realistic option to renegotiate the deal. She could hardly be heard over the din.

Now, B.C. voters will finally have their say on the HST and a new political era.

But don’t expect politics in Lotusland to get any less nasty.

– The Tri-City News (Black Press)

L OCALLY G LOBAL

Gloves come off as party leaders take their blows Party-leader bashing seems to be in vogue. NDP MLA Jenny Kwan’s lashing against Carol James came on the heels of Bill Bennett’s tirade against outgoing premier Gordon Campbell. This stuff might make for entertaining politics but all the bickering hardly speaks to bolstering the public’s confidence. Or patience.

Carol James has got herself caught between a rock and a hard place. In the party’s track record, Kwan is no lightweight.

She’s a 14-year veteran having been first elected as the MLA for Vancouver Mount Pleasant in 1996 to become one of the first Chinese-Canadian women to sit in the Legislative Assembly. She has been re-elected three times (in 2001 when she was the loner with Joy MacPhail, 2005 and 2009). Even before all that, the Hong Kong native was elected to Vancouver City Council in 1993,

becoming the youngest councillor in Vancouver’s history. She has staying-power smarts; she knew when to toss the gauntlet into the circus ring and she is joined by a dozen NDP MLA’s openly criticizing James’ leadership, the 13 discontents now infamously the baker’s dozen.

Kwan’s statement last Wednesday was pretty blistering and, for James, Margaret lethally damaging.

EVANS In Kwan’s reckoning, under James’ leadership there has been a lack of direction, an inability to capture the public’s interest and support, poor judgment and poor decisions all culminating in the urgent need for a leadership convention.

James is on a really rocky path.

Quite frankly, Kwan’s comments are pretty much on target. James’ leadership has never been decisive or clear and the entire NDP strategy has appeared to be solely Campbell bashing. Sure, the job of the opposition is to criticize current government policy but it is also to provide clear, alternative policies and directions that the public can grasp. True, she has inched the party for ward since the early 2000s but her personal poll ratings are at all time lows.

And where was James when it came to the HST debacle? It should have been her, not Bill Vander Zalm running with that one. Talk about a colossally missed opportunity! That was a political gem most opposition leaders could only dream of.

As for the Liberals, they must be loving this. The imploding

NDP is their own political gem dropped into their laps as they scramble with misfortunes that triggered their own leadership race With the floundering of the Libs and NDP, no wonder people have floated the idea that there should be an alternative party.

BC First in its founding stages and will have its first formative convention next spring. The only Independent in the Leg is Vicki Huntington but she could be feeling decidedly crowded these days with ex-Libs Bill Bennett and Blair Lekstrom and exNDP Bob Simpson muscling for bench space. Maybe they’ll find some common ground for a Bloc Discontent Party.

The NDP mess must be deeper than Kwan & Co grumbles.

Apparently her public criticisms of James have been voiced internally for quite some time. But

tossing out the messenger and her supporters isn’t the answer.

James though seems to be characteristically delaying action on dealing with her party’s crisis.

Truth is, the public deserves more than they’re getting right now. As the leadership race firms up in the Liberal camp (with CKNW talk show host Christie Clark expected to announce any day that she’s running), the NDP need to resolve their disputes, clean up their image, get a leader with leadership qualities and offer policies people can relate to.

They are about as far away from a government in waiting as they can get.

The Liberals will pick a new leader in a couple of months.

Watch for a snap election next year.

COME OUT & CHEER ‘EM ON!

Don’t miss Country Garden Garden’ss First

s ’ n e m e l Gent d a e r b r Ginge ! l a Put the ‘Merry’ back in Christmas Sat, December n o i t b 11 invita 2pm-3pm I am wondering what ever happened to manners and common courtesy. A complete lack of either has become the norm - a sad state of affairs to say the least. It is in the way we drive, the way we walk, and most especially when we shop. It is in this that I notice it the most as I am a retail worker for a large retailer and am one of many recipients of your complete lack of manners. Small phrases such as “excuse me” and “pardon me” have been replaced with “hey, do you know where...” and “well I looked but couldn’t find it!”

These are just spouted out as if we were some kind of slave. Sorry, but slavery has been outlawed in this country. And I hate to be the one to burst your bubble, but we are people too. Most of us have families we are trying to support, we have feelings and we do have brains. We are also caught between a rock and a hard place. Management only cares about the bottom line and their form of inspiration comes with a “whip” (so to speak). Customers treat us

The Chilliwack

Progress

like we are moronic slaves. We are simply trying to do our jobs and keep our dignity, and let’s face it, trying to keep one’s dignity while working in retail is very difficult indeed. Management dumps on us, but because they check our hours, make our schedules and sign our cheques, we take it. Customers take out their frustrations on us, but because this is where the money comes in to pay our wages, we take it. We have to bite our lips and take the abuse because a loss of customers means a loss of hours and a loss of jobs.

It is easy to tell which customers have worked retail before and who hasn’t. Maybe you should put yourself in our shoes and take the abuse... Aahhh but then you were the kid that knew what (s)he wanted to be once grown up. So you never had the unfortunate experience of being in our shoes. You have never had to face the abuse of an irate customer who missed the sale. You have never been the victim of five different customers pouncing on you

at once because too many people called in sick so the store is once again under-staffed. And some of the worst offenders are seniors who figure they have been around long enough on this planet that they should take precedence over everyone else, and that we should have ESP so we know exactly what obscure thing they are talking about. I myself love ending up being called stupid because a certain gentleman couldn’t explain himself well enough to describe what it was he wanted. But no matter who you are, there is no excuse for rudeness.

As Christmas is drawing rapidly near, attitudes and rudeness grows more prevalent. During the season of good will towards your fellow man and giving this does not speak well for mankind. So please when out shopping this season, remember “you sow what you reap and you reap what you sow”, “for it is in giving that we receive” (and not necessarily in a materialistic fashion!).

prise, there is no service to there.

They said you would have to phone city hall.

So I phoned city hall and was told there probably would not be one for quite some time. It takes time to put things

through. And there’s the cost of funding. He wasn’t sure if the taxpayers would want higher taxes or not.

Well, the closest place to walk from is Stream.

Well, it’s not close if you have a walker.

Taxies are expensive, $10 or more. Not many can afford that. That’s why we take the bus.

It’s a shame to build something and not give one thought as to how the public will get there.

If you ask people around the mall, the promontory bus drivers, or just about anyone walking down the street, who Tyler is, they can tell you.

Tyler knows everyone and everyone knows Tyler. They just aren’t willing to give him a job.

Tyler deserves to be able to feel like a man. He deserves to make his own money that he has earned, not just the money he gets from disability.

As a mom, it breaks my heart when Tyler is again let down after an interview. It is my dream to see Tyler being treated like an equal, and getting employment.

Thank you to all the seniors who attended the Seniors Christmas Dinner on Wed. Dec. 1 at the Chilliwack Senior Secondary School. We had a sold out crowd of 175 people. A huge thank you to Terry McDougall, teaching chef, Sharon Touchet, chef instructor as well as the staff and the culinary arts students are to be commended for preparing and serving a delicious turkey dinner with all the trimmings. A job well done to say the least.

The cafeteria was beautifully transformed into an elegant dining room with white linen tablecloths, red napkins filled the punch glasses, candles and holly adorned the round tables. The festive mood was enhanced with Christmas music. Proceeds go to the Culinary Arts Program. Please mark your calendars for the Bursary Dinner which will take place on Wednesday, May 4, 2011.

He has been actively seeking employment in Chilliwack for two years now. Tyler has gone through just about every avenue available to him. He has been to countless interviews, but is always told he falls short of the qualifications.

Lego building not just child’s play Fraser Valley Distance Ed is tapping into the vast educational components of the Lego robotics system with a new robotics club Katie Bartel The Progress Lego is not just a toy.

For years it’s been touted as stimulating creativity and lateral thinking and building dexterity in kids. When building battle ships and race cars and winter villages, kids are learning about construction and design, and they’re developing muscles in their fingers and hands.

But did you know, Lego also has a hand in producing future engineers?

Fraser Valley Distance Education is tapping into that market.

The distance ed school, which is primarily a school of correspondence, started a Lego robotics club this year for its elementary-aged students – a club that it hopes to develop into full credit, academic courses for elementary, middle and secondary school students.

Once a week for two hours students between the ages of six and 12 gather at the school on Prairie Central Road to build robots out of Legos that look like miniature Number 5s from the 1986 Steve Guttenberg flick Short Circuit.

“They are learning to build and program robotics,” said teacher Dennis Miller. “They are learning how to be logical, they’re learning computer skills, problem-solving skills, and they’re challenging themselves. They have to look at finite details to put it all

together.”

To create their robot.

“Everybody thinks it’s just Legos, but it’s way more than just Legos. It’s a computer; it has a brain,” said Miller.

The Lego Group developed its Mindstorms robotic program 12 years ago to create a hands-on learning environment that would

said Miller. “There’s more of a demand now for anything in the electronics field.”

For instance, health care, engineering, building and manufacturing machines all use the robotics skill set.

The process of building a robot has students investigating the transfer of energy, force, speed and the effects of friction; mea-

“

Everybody thinks it’s just Legos, but it’s way more than just Legos. It’s a computer; it has a brain. ~ Dennis Miller

”

enable children to grasp science, technology, engineering and math concepts.

With a kit that includes user-friendly programmable software, electric motors, sensors and Lego-technic bricks, students are building real-life robots. And not just young students, university students too.

Several universities use the Lego program for computing and electrical engineering uses.

“Robotics is becoming bigger and bigger,”

suring distance, circumference, rotational speed, using coordinate systems, and converting between decimals and fractions; programming and controlling input and output devices, using wireless communication technology; problem solving through building, testing and evaluating their robots.

All of which are educational frameworks.

But in the Fraser Valley Distance Ed robotics club, which has approximately 20 students participating, many of the kids

don’t even realize they’re learning. They’re having way too much fun.

“It’s really cool,” said 10-year-old Omar Abbas, not looking up from his robot, too focused on attaching a sensor. “It’s like a real robot, you know, it’s fun.”

With their eyes glued to computer monitors, the students commanded their robots to follow a laser, move forwards and backwards, grab hold of a ball, and one kid even had his robot spinning its arm like a windmill in a tornado – to great amounts of wide-eyed giggles.

Parent Katherine Isaac drives her 11-yearold son Nolan to the club every week from Port Moody.

“This is the most amazing thing for him,” she said. “Nolan is a very, very bright kid, but he has language disabilities with written and spoken English. But in here, he excels.

He’s excited, happy, focused, and he’s learning something that he cares about.”

Fraser Valley Distance Ed hopes to evolve the current club into a three-year boardapproved robotics course for its secondary school students that would give students an employable trade upon completion.

“It’s just a club right now, but our goal is to have a course where students can come out of Grade 12 with a unique skill set,” said Miller. “Something that will give our kids an edge over others who don’t have this skill.” kbartel@theprogress.com

Preparing for

WINTER on the ROAD Ice

Ice is a problem that plagues drivers when the temperature drops. While some ice can be detected on the roadway, thin sheets of ice blend in with the asphalt and are known as “black ice.” Black ice can be undetectable until a car begins to skid.

Many people have trouble driving on icy roads. In fact, winter conditions often lead to accidents. More than 500 fatalities were attributed to snowy, icy roads in the 2008-2009 winter season in the U.S. It is important to make some modifications to a vehicle if driving on ice will be commonplace this season. At the least, proper tire inflation is important to maintain traction. Tires should also be checked for tread, as bald tires will do little to grip the road.

Individuals who want even more protection should consider switching to snow tires for the winter. These tires are made from a softer rubber so they can better grip the road. They may also feature a different tire tread for even more traction. Snow chains can be used to offer greater grip. However, speeds will have to be greatly reduced when chains are in place.

Reducing speed is helpful when driving in an inclement condition, including on ice. It helps a driver to better correct a situation and react. If skidding is experienced, gently steer in the direction of the skid without applying the brakes. When traction is resumed, slow down and correct the car.

Christmas bird counts coming to local backyards Ever y little bird counts.

The Chilliwack Christmas Bird Counts and Harrison River Christmas Bird Counts are set for Dec. 18 and Dec. 15 respectively.

The pre-count meeting for both annual events is on Dec. 14 at the Chilliwack library at 6:30 p.m., and bird counters can pick up their routes checklist and maps on that night.

The annual Christmas Bird Count (CBC) is known as the longestrunning citizen science survey in the world, and tens of thousands of volunteers across North America will brave win-

ter weather to do the count.

“Each CBC volunteer observer is an important contributor, helping to shape the overall direction of bird conservation,” says Dick Cannings, Bird Studies

Canada’s Christmas Bird Count Coordinator.

“Bird Studies Canada and our U.S. partners at Audubon rely on data from the CBC database to monitor bird populations across North America.”

HEAD-TO-HEAD The Bruins are 3-2-0-2 alltime against the Hurricanes, with a record of 1-1-0-1 within the unfriendly confines of the Enmax Centre.

THE TRIP AHEAD The Chilliwack Bruins hit the road for five tough games against Alberta-based competition, hoping to hit the Christmas break on a roll.

The good guys open the trip Friday in Lethbridge, continuing on to games in Medicine Hat (Saturday), Calgary (Tuesday), Red Deer (Wednesday) and Edmonton (Friday). Chilliwack has fared surprisingly well against Central division competition since entering the league in 2006-07, going 21-17-2-4 overall and 11-9-1-2 on the road.

a deficit heading to the third. Chilliwack generated just six shots on net in the final frame, going down a bit too quietly.

“We’re down by one and you want to push for that, but the third period was pretty nondescript for us,” Habscheid said. “We definitely didn’t have the push we needed and that goes back to the inconsistency that

we still need to get rounded out.”

Yep. Can’t get through a Bruins article lately without using that word.

Inconsistency.

Habscheid’s tired of talking about it, and your friendly neighborhood sports writer is tired about writing about it.

But it can’t be ignored.

“It’s not getting too high after a win or too low after a loss,” Habscheid said. “It’s how you prepare for a game and how you respond to situations within a game. We were OK against Vancouver, but we don’t want to be an OK team. We want to be a great team, and to do that you have to bring your A game every night.”

Maybe a five game

Alberta trip comes at a good time.

After a Tuesday morning home game against Swift Current, the boys are away for seven games until New Years Eve. “It’s a long year and sometimes it helps to get something different,” Habscheid said.

“Guys seem to enjoy those trips and it seems to show up in the results.”

CHILLIWACK

OMMUNITY SPORTS REVIEW

Peewees punish Wildcats in title game The Blue Giants capped off a historic season on Sunday, winning Chilliwack’s first ever peewee football provincial title at MacLeod Stadium in Langley.

The Giants downed the previously unbeaten Coquitlam Wildcats 28-13 in the final, led by game MVP Ethan Mastin.

Offensively, Mastin scored two of the Chilliwack touchdowns, carried the ball 10 times for 42 yards and added a crucial onside kick recovery.

Defensively, Mastin added three tackles, including a touchdown saver in the fourth quarter.

The Wildcats opened the scoring in the second quarter, burning Chilliwack on a long passing play.

The Giants responded with a major of their own just before halftime, and trailed 7-6 at the break.

Head coach Laurie Smith told the Giants

to continue their physical play.

“I knew we would wear them down eventually. That Coquitlam team has never been hit that hard and I attribute our physical play to our trip to Nebraska,” Smith said. “Our kids learned what it means to play physical football thanks to the beating we took in August.”

Running back Emlio Pineda pounded the Wildcat defence, rushing for 161 yards and a major on 24 carries.

Gabe Mannes added eight carries for 76 yards and one touchdown running behind offensive linemen Jake Troyan, Devan Voss, Gaven Streifel, Reese Smith, Taj Sidhu, Jaren Lengert and Hardie and Noah Chand.

They had help from wideouts Noah Thiessen, Terry Richely and Mason Hartskamp.

“I am glad that our blockers had their best game at the right time,” noted offensive coordinator Andy Uzick. “It was like wave after wave of blue jerseys clearing a path for our running backs.”

Michael Lengert led a tenacious defence with eight tackles and one quarterback sack.

added six tackles and a sack with Mannes and Breslin adding three tackles apiece.

“They were frustrated and hurting,” said defensive coordinator David Janzen of the damage inflicted upon the Wildcats. “We

run a very aggressive defense, with multiple blitzes and lots of pressure, and they could not move the ball.”

Defensive backs Evan McCracken and Adam Phillips had outstanding games, containing the outside run with

two tackles each.

Halfback Brendan Piegsa almost had an interception and successfully locked down Coquitlam’s primar y deep threat for most of the game.

Troyan, Jaren Lengert and Sureet

Pabbi applied constant pressure from the defensive line, each recording two tackles.

Defensive Linebackers Colin Campbell and Austin Kardux also had one tackle each, part of an overall effort that kept Coquitlam well

below its season average of 30 points per game.

These Giants join the 1998 junior bantam Giants and the 2009 midget Giants on the short list of Chilliwack provincial football champions.

Little guy stands tall in Top Athlete competition Eric J. Welsh, The Progress James MacGregor is the first to admit he wouldn’t stand a chance in the annual Sardis Strongman competition.

The tire flip?

Forget about it.

Sled push?

Not likely.

Sandbag carry?

Not happening.

The slightly built Grade 10 student just isn’t built for power events.

So it’s fortunate that he doesn’t go to Sardis secondary school.

MacGregor goes to Chilliwack secondary school, and last week he competed in an athletic

challenge that is more suited to his talents.

Over the lunch-hour last Tuesday afternoon he stared down an agility course in the CSS gym.

MacGregor started off navigating through a series of floor pylons — rushing forward, then backward, forward again and then right to left.

On to the tires, he high stepped his way through 10 all-seasons, legs chugging up and down like pistons.

Clearing the tires, he belly slid under a pair of obstacles, and then did some more fancy footwork through a series of floor matts.

Finally, MacGregor built up speed approach-

ing a giant high-jump landing matt, launching himself into the air with such momentum that he flipped off the matt and almost stumbled into the gymnasium wall 20 feet beyond.

When all is said and done, MacGregor did the whole thing faster than just about anyone, placing first among Grade 10 boys and second overall.

“I think the big matt at the end was the hardest part of the course,” MacGregor said moments after finishing. “I wanted to finish strong, so I threw myself at it as hard as I could.”

A few minutes later, big Brandon Dargatz tried his luck on the

course, with much less success.

Built to star in rugged strength-oriented sports like football and rugby, Dargatz was out of his element on this day.

The following day, he would be among the top performers in the tire flip, but on this day the edge went to the little guy.

“It feels good beating him today, but I know tomorrow he’s going to dust me because he’s so big,” the 15-yearold said. “It’s 50/50 in this competition, and I appreciate that because it allows little guys like me to do well. If it was all lifting I probably wouldn’t even go into it.”

Ex-Sardis teacher Shane Mummery, with plenty of help from the PE leadership class, is responsible for taking the hugely successful Sardis Strongman concept and re-imagining it.

The result is the CSS Next Top Athlete competition — a series of events that tests everything from speed to strength to sport-specific aptitudes.

“We’re looking for a complete athlete, and strength and speed are only parts of that,” Mummery said.

“Brandon won the strength competition on Monday hands down, and James was obviously able to cruise through the agility course today.

It’s real interesting to see different types of athletes getting recognition.”

At anything like this, you will see the kids you expect to see. The guys and gals who excel for their school teams are almost certain to enter.

“But a lot of the Grade 10 and 11 competitors, I haven’t even met before and I’m actively involved in all the athletics at this school,” Mummery noted. “There are kids who are athletic but don’t play any school sports, and they’re coming out for this. It’s good to see them getting involved.”

At the Sardis Strongman, the stands are jammed full of stu-

dents cheering on their classmates.

The music is loud.

Ken Heise on the microphone is louder and the atmosphere is electric.

Few events are better at fostering school spirit, and that is what Mummery hopes to duplicate with the CSS competition.

“That was the question we put to the PE leadership class, how can we get people involved,” Mummery explained. “We had about 26 contestants and we had a good group watching in the stands, so I’d call it a success.”

An epic shootout lasted 13 rounds, with Striker keeper Samantha Chand stopping 11 of the 13 shots she faced.

DLN 30337

Chilliwack’s U-15 Striker girls beat the North Shore Scorpions in a soccer thiller, taking a 3-2 shootout decision in their third and final Cup game.

North Shore opened the scoring six minutes in, delivering a wakeup call to the locals with a long shot from beyond the 18-yard box.

The Strikers came to life from there and dominated play for the rest of the first half.

They continued to press in the second half, and tied the score two minutes in on a goal by Brett Karcioglu.

Dominant play by defenders Kelli Whitehead and Kelsey DeGroot backed up an efficient midfield, keeping the Scorpions hemmed in their end of the field.

But through it all, Chilliwack couldn’t find the winner in regulation time.

McCONNELL John Carruthers

John Carruthers McConnell, a well-known and beloved long-time resident of Ryder MCCONNELL Lake, passed away peacefully at Chilliwack General Hospital on December 3rd, 2010 at the admirable age of 92.

John was born in Swan Lake, Manitoba on October 29th, 1918 to John C. McConnell and was a graduate of Chilliwack High School. On January 8th, 1940, he joined in marriage to Linda Coughlin of Ryder Lake at St. Thomas Anglican Church. They met at a dance at the old Ryder Lake Hall on Ryder Lake Road and thus began a lifetime together.

Their first chaperones of their first official date were the now deceased Major Perrie and his good wife Bertha Perrie.

John lived a full life, dedicated to his community in both Chilliwack and Ryder Lake. Fondly referred to as the ‘Mayor of Ryder Lake’, he will be remembered as the instigator of the Ryder Lake Volunteer Fire Hall Department and the building of the Ryder Lake Fire Hall which was purchased by the Municipality of Chilliwack in the early 1980’s. The fire hall is currently known as Hall No.5 of the City of Chilliwack Fire Department, of which he remained as a volunteer until his 70th birthday. Life Member & Past President of the Ryder Lake Farmers’ Institute he worked towards the purchasing of the property and building of the new Ryder Lake Farmers’ & Women’s Institute Hall on Elk View Road; Life Member of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 4.

In the 1980’s, his friendly face was seen behind the beard of Santa, announcer of the world famous Dew Worm Races which participated in Expo 86, and delivering mail to the Greendale Rural area from 1964 to 1989. John belonged to the Westminster Regiment and served in WW II in Europe as a dispatch rider (motor cycle) between the Canadian and British Armies. Thus began his fondness for motorcycles.

After retiring from the Army, he worked as a weigh man in the hop yards, volunteered during the Flood of 48 hauling gravel on the dyke, truck driver for a logging company and then as a rural postman until retirement.

The residence of John and Linda is a place like no other; beautiful gardens full of fresh

scents and ingenious designs which they built together over their 60 years of residence at their home in Ryder Lake. It is a place enjoyed by all; human and animal alike. One could always count on a hand wave from John who in his latter years supervised the goings on from the gazebo in their garden.

John is fondly remembered by his loving wife and best friend of 71 years, Linda of Ryder Lake, nephews, nieces, grand nephews and nieces, friends and neighbours. He was predeceased by his sister, Margaret Lazenby (Bill), John C. McConnell (father) and numerous in-laws.

Special Thanks to Dr. Gruno, Dr. Fam; staff and nurses from Unit 3 and 5 at Chilliwack General Hospital. An Extra Special Thanks to their good neighbour, Sharon Berney, for organizing rides for Linda to visit John and for all the days she drove Linda herself.

Please join the family in a celebration of John’s life at Henderson’s Funeral Home on Wednesday, December 8th at 11:00 am, followed immediately by a burial at the Legion Cemetery on Little Mountain and a reception at the Ryder Lake Hall on Elkview Road at 12:30 pm.
