District will study early French immersion Katie Bartel The Progress A study has been commissioned to look into the feasibility of implementing early French immersion in the Chilliwack school district. At Tuesday night’s school board meeting all trustees, except trustee Barry Neufeld, were in favour of the study. Neufeld said there was no proof of early French immersion benefitting students, and that it actually segregated students. “I am probably committing political suicide here, but I have long opposed French immersion for the simple fact it complicates social ties with children who are forced into social groupings that their number of The wheels limit friends,” said Neufeld. are in Trustee Silvia Dyck, motion now however, listed off several benefits of early French immersion, ~ Travis added brain Forstbauer including space that is retained into adult life. Trustee Heather Maahs also noted that early French immersion is something several parents have expressed a desire for. “Parents are the clients of the public school system and they are well within their right to ask for something and for us to oblige,” she said. Trustee Walt Krahn wanted to ensure the school district would give the study wide exposure, making it known through social media, newspapers, radio and others in the community to ensure an “authentic” count. The Chilliwack school district already offers late French immersion, which begins at the Grade 6 level. However, for more than four months a

Martin acclaimed, comes out swinging It didn’t take long for John Martin to be assigned duties in the BC Conservative’s shadow cabinet. Martin, who was acclaimed Tuesday as the party’s candidate in the upcoming Chilliwack-Hope byelection, was named justice critic by party leader John Cummins on Wednesday. Martin will shadow two ministries: the Solicitor General and Attorney General. Said Martin, a criminology professor at the University of the Fraser Valley and columnist with the Chilliwack Times newspaper: “This Liberal government has failed British Columbians on the justice file. They have starved the justice system and now thousands of criminal prosecutions could be thrown out.” Joining Martin in the BC Conservative shadow cabinet will be Christine Clarke, who is hoping to win the byelection in Port Moody-Coquitlam riding. No date has been set for the Chilliwack-
Hope byelection, which was necessitated by the resignation of longtime MLA and former Attorney General Barry Penner. However, it must be held within six months. Martin is the first candidate to secure a nomination. The NDP will decide on Saturday between three hopefuls: Dennis Adamson, Gwen O’Mahony and Kathleen Stephany. Adamson is the area director for Yale at the Fraser Valley Regional District, and as an outspoken critic of “conflict” gravel mines has built a reputation as a peoples’ politician. O’Mahony led the NDP to a second-place finish in the in Chilliwack-Fraser Canyon in last May’s federal election, and to secondplace in the 2009 provincial election Stephany, a nursing ethics professor who ran as the NDP candidate in Langley in the 2009 provincial election, gained a “whistleblower” reputation in 2005 when

she was in charge of special investigations at the BC Coroner’s Office. The BC Liberals, meanwhile, have set Feb. 4 for their nomination meeting. Only one candidate has been declared: Laurie Throness, an assistant to former Chilliwack Fraser Canyon MP Chuck Strahl. Martin is already taking aim at the BC Liberals. He denounced the government’s recent decision to support efforts by Metro Vancouver to build a new incineration plant to deal with the region’s garbage. “I assure you,” said Martin, “if the Liberals were to win this byelection it would be a clear signal to this government they can do anything they want and get away with. “As your MLA I will oppose this incinerator. The quality of air in the Fraser Valley is not important to this Liberal government, but it is vitally important to those of us who live in Chilliwack and Hope.”

Future of Paramount Theatre still uncertain Jennifer Feinberg The Progress The old Paramount Theatre building in downtown Chilliwack may not be able escape the wrecking ball for too much longer. The lights and heat were turned off earlier this month at the site just east of Five Corners. Then on Monday, the only two RFP respondents to submit redevelopment ideas were disqualified by city council on the basis of non-compliant proposals.
One came from Revolution Church, and the other was from Protocol Developments. “We were disappointed that there weren’t more proposals coming for ward, but not surprised,” said Mayor Sharon Gaetz. “It’s difficult to make the financial case for saving the Paramount.” The terms of the RFP were explicit in that no city funds were going to be made available to “upgrade, renovate” or bring the dilapidated building up to code, so the burden would be on the
respondents to undertake the improvements. Estimates are pegged at $150,000 to $300,000 to bring the building up to provincial standards. The groups had to identify the financial means and specific expertise they had which would allow them to upgrade the building with an eye to establishing a long-term lease arrangement. But when the city’s evaluation team reviewed both proposals recently, it determined that
neither “included appropriate management and financial plans” and therefore did not meet the requirements of the RFP. Paramount Theatre owners originally donated the historic building to the city, and there had been hope for revitalization or redevelopment of the site. At this point there may only be one or two options left. “The last thing we want to do is demolish,” Gaetz said. “It seems sad since the building was a longtime fixture in our community.”
Tasting the bounty in a 10-mile diet Jennifer Feinberg The Progress A Ten-Mile Tasty Tour could serve as a winter pick-me-up for the taste buds Saturday in Yarrow. Yarrow Ecovillage members are getting ready to host visitors from Chilliwack and beyond to explore, feast and connect with them on Jan. 28. Residents and farmers have been taking the squash, beets, and other root veggies out of storage. Greens and fresh herbs have been harvested. Free-range eggs from a local producer have been secured, as have the goat cheese and turkey sausage to be used in the special lunch. Making connections around food seemed like a natural for a co-housing neighbourhood being built on community-minded principles, said ecovillage resident Vivian Vaillant. “We’re all foodies,” she said. “It’s the one thing truly universal that we share. We all love to eat and cook.” The ecovillage is an intentional community off Yarrow Central Road with co-housing, certified organic farming, and a plan for mixed commercial/residential operations — all on one sprawling 22-acre site. Food is also an important part of connecting and sharing, and the ecovillagers are happy to share in that abundance. “It helps you feel grateful,” Vaillant added. “This will also serve as a dress rehearsal for other events we’ll hold. If we can pull this off in January, imagine what we will do all summer long.” The delicious luncheon meal at the heart of the Ten-Mile Tasty Tour will be served at the Yarrow Community Hall on Jan. 28 from noon to 1 p.m. Roasted squash soup, greens with blueberry dressing, and goat cheese quiche with garlic yogurt sauce are on the menu. There’s an artisan focaccia bread with herbed

butter to dip into the soup. All the gourmet offerings are being prepared by resident chefs using certified organic produce grown on-site, along with other locally sourced items. For Janice Patterson, the village chocolatier, food transcends education, culture, religion — almost everything. “It’s the best common denominator to reach people,” she said. She’s tucking some of her milk chocolate fudge and English butter toffee with dark chocolate samples into the take-home bags for tour participants. Ecovillage resident Meg Jordan is chipping in North Georgia candy roaster squash to the community lunch effort. “The squash was grown from
heritage seeds I saved and later harvested for the community good,” she said. One of the Yarrow area producers who decided to donate some of her free-range eggs for the luncheon quiche is Angela Dyck of Highland Hens. She is passionate about her chickens, and about 20 dozen eggs will be going into the quiche. “I want to show what Yarrow has to offer,” she said. “I love what I do and you will never taste a fresher egg,” she said. Although she’s not a member of the ecovillage, she lives nearby and was happy to contribute to help get her name out there. “It’s wonderful. Yarrow is just the kind of community that does
things together.” Participants are invited to either tour the Yarrow Ecovillage site before or after they have lunch. They have a 10 a.m. to noon block open for village touring or the 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Ecovillage residents will also be on hand to share what day-to-day life is like in their neighbourhood. “Come spend a few hours with us. We hope you’ll stay for a lifetime,” reads the event poster. The newly unveiled plans for a common house will be on display, or check out some of the homes under construction in the village. Tickets for the Ten-Mile Tasty Tour are $20 (includes Lunch + Tour), to order in advance (604) 756-1479 or welcome@ yarrowecovillage.ca.

Either they will proceed with a demolition order after consulting with Chilliwack Economic Partners Corp. officials or an entirely new proposal process would have to be initiated if a viable project were to suddenly come forward. “There may be an additional proposal in the wings. But we’ll have to see if it pans out,” said Gaetz.

Cheam Golf Centre could be re-opening its gates as soon as the weather and ground conditions improve. A recent court decision in favour of City of Chilliwack means it stands to recover 100 per cent of the costs associated with terminating the lease with golf course operator Bogey Enterprises last fall. “We would like to thank the patrons of this golf course for their patience while we awaited the court’s decision,” said Mayor Sharon Gaetz. “The city would also like to thank those members who expressed an interest and offered their ideas for the future of the course.” City officials terminated the operator’s lease in November 2011 for non-payment of rent and property taxes at the cityowned site on Luckakuck Way. The court decision has resulted in the lease with Bogey Enterprises being recently reinstated. Chilliwack is due to receive payment of about $60,000, in addition to legal costs following the court decision on Jan. 20. Unpaid lease payments and taxes were at the $40,000-mark by the end of October, and costs kept mounting. So city officials had no choice but to lock the gates and try to recoup their losses. All Cheam Golf memberships purchased for the 2012 season will be honoured, Bogey officials told the city. jfeinberg@theprogress.com twitter.com/CHWKjourno

A delegation of teachers expressed sympathy at Tuesday night’s school board meeting for the added responsibilities placed on the district’s administrative staff over the last 75 days. But those responsibilities are nothing compared to what teachers have experienced over the last 10 years, said Katharin Midzain, president of the Chilliwack
Teachers’ Association. Jan. 28 marks the 10th anniversary of Bills 27 and 28 being implemented by the provincial government, which removed class size and composition from collective bargaining. “That multiplies out to about 1,980 days of classes where students have not had the support that they need and teachers have not had the time or resources to adequately meet the needs of every student under their charge,”
said Midzain, who expressed appreciation to the board and district staff for making the best of an “intolerable” situation. But, “we need more from you. We need you to help us break the log jam that is happening at the provincial bargaining level. We need you to advocate strongly for the provisions that had been in place before Bills 27 and 28... We need your help to lobby the government for what’s right for our

students.” The B.C. Teachers Federation enacted phase 1 of job action on Sept. 6, which has resulted in a reduction of administrative and ministry mandated services by teachers, such as supervision at recess and before and after school supervision. Administrative staff have had to pick up the slack. Ten teachers filled the district office to express the increased pressures they’ve experienced over the last 10 years. Lisa Ego, chemistry teacher at Sardis secondary, is often at the school well into the night making labs and preparing chemical solutions for four different classes, because she no longer has prep time. Liz Mackenzie, an elementary school counselor and vice president of CTA, said she has a caseload of more than 1,000 students, many of who she can’t adequately support because of the increased workload. Dan Petek, English teacher at Sardis secondary said several of his students are below reading levels because of cutbacks. Continued: LABOUR/ p5

News Accused coke dealers walked due to court delay Pair arrested near Chilliwack Jeff Nagel Black Press The B.C. Court of Appeal has upheld a lower court decision to drop the charges against two accused cocaine traffickers because B.C.’s congested court system couldn’t try them fast enough. The prosecution of the two men was quashed in June of 2009 when the trial judge ruled the expected 62.5month delay in the case getting to trial by the
end of that year would be unreasonable. The two men were stopped in September of 2004 in a car near Chilliwack where police opened a hidden compartment and found 20 kilograms of cocaine the suspects were accused of buying from suppliers in Burnaby. The pair were part of what police said was a larger conspiracy to import the drug from the U.S. and transport it to Ontario. The Crown had
appealed the trial judge’s decision to quash the case, arguing in part that more of the delay should be attributed to the defence. The three Appeal Court Justices concluded that while defence underestimated how much time would be needed to challenge the Crown’s wiretap evidence, the delays were “significantly compounded” by a lack of court resources. “The leading motif running throughout the discussions is not the unavailability of counsel, but rather the inability

the case was originally tossed out of court. In September of 2010, the Provincial Court issued its Justice Delayed report, which sounded the alarm about a worsening shortage of judges and noted more than 2,000 adult criminal cases were in danger of being tossed because they were older than 18 months. A one-year update to that report issued last September warned that backlog of criminal cases older than 18 months had grown to more than 2,500.
of the court to find any time, let alone blocks of time beyond two-week segments, to carry on with the trial,” they said in the Jan. 10 decision. “On every occasion when more time was required, the case was adjourned for at least a year before any time to continue it could be found.” The Appeal Court also concluded that efforts to reduce the Provincial Court criminal case backlog were insufficient. Court congestion has worsened in the nearly three years since

Policy to protect Last Tuesday some of the world’s biggest websites, as well as some as its most unique, put that frightening prospect into practice. Encyclopedic website Wikipedia, blogging site Wordpress, search engine Google, and even I Can Has Cheez Burger, a huge collection of goofy cat photos and videos, were amongst thousands of sites that either went dark, denying visitors access to their content, or censored parts of it to make a point. The tech companies that manage and host thousands of websites took the extraordinary step to protest a pair of bills working their way through the American legislative process. The Stop Online Piracy Act and the Protect Intellectual Property Act were designed to combat the piracy of movies, music and other content. But opponents say it goes much further by empowering U.S. courts to block access to websites that host pirated content or even link to such sites whether knowingly or unwittingly. Critics say the new laws would be prohibitively expensive to police and, perhaps more importantly, they threaten the freedom of expression and creativity that fuel the Internet. The protest worked. American legislators have backed off the bills. It’s hard to have much sympathy for wealthy multinational multimedia companies that continue to rack in billions of dollars despite illegal downloading. But there is little protection for individual content creators who find their own work co-opted by big companies, like photojournalist Daniel Morel whose first photos from the 2010 earthquake in Haiti were plucked from Twitter and distributed by an international wire service without his knowledge and without compensation. The tech companies say they can police piracy themselves. If that’s to work, they must harness the same creativity they’re professing to protect to formulate plans and policies that protect individual content creators as much as wealthy media companies. ~Black Press

Questioning the U.S. ‘environmentalists’ Federal Natural Resources Minister Joe Oliver set off a loud, but poorly informed debate as environmental hearings began into the Enbridge proposal to pipe Alberta oil to the seaport at Kitimat. Oliver’s open letter blasted foreign-funded environmental groups that “threaten to hijack our regulatory system to achieve their radical ideological agenda.” This letter was seized upon by critics and the media, and misrepresented as an attack on anyone who opposes the pipeline or further expansion of the Alberta oil sands. Of course all opponents aren’t foreign or radicals. That was made clear when the Enbridge hearings opened in the Haisla village near Kitimat. Haisla members told the throng of out-of-town professional protesters to sit down and shut up. They don’t need self-appointed urbanites to speak for them.

The fact of foreign funding is no longer questioned, thanks to research by B.C. blogger Vivian Krause, primarily from U.S. tax returns. Three years after I first wrote about her work, it is finally part of the national conversation. What is the foreign-funded agenda? Oliver put it this way: “No forestry. No mining. No oil. No gas. No Tom more hydroelectric FLETCHER dams.” Here are three notions that have become entrenched in the urban mind in recent years: Clear-cut logging is by definition bad. Alaska salmon is wild, and thus superior to farmed. Run-of-river hydro destroys rivers. All are aggressively promoted by certain environmental groups.
And all are false. On forestry, B.C. media have been spoon-fed by U.S.-backed environmental organizers since Clayoquot Sound in the 1980s, when wealthy Americans first decided to save B.C. from itself. Greenpeace founder-turnedcritic Patrick Moore was in Victoria last week to speak to the Truck Loggers’ Association. He pointed out that North American “green building” standards reward locally sourced concrete and steel, but not wood. Why? Because big international organizations like Greenpeace and Sierra Club are so invested in opposition to logging, they end up backing environmentally destructive policies. On oil, the debate has been dumbed down to the point where even movie stars can participate. Protesting a pipeline from Alberta to the U.S., Hollywood darling Robert Redford recited the usual talking points about the
“tar sands scourge.” Alberta oil sands can be seen from space, Redford moaned. So can Venezuela oil sands, a major U.S. source. So can Redford’s vast Utah ranch and ski resort development. Redford parrots the claim that oil sands extraction produces three times the greenhouse gases of conventional oil. This is the big lie of “tar sands” campaigners. Three quarters of emissions from all crude are generated when the refined fuel is burned by things like Redford’s limo, or the airline for which he voiced TV commercials. The Alberta government reports that average emissions from oil sands crude are 107 grams per megajoule, slightly more than U.S. Gulf Coast crude at 104. California heavy crude comes in higher, at 114. And if carbon is the issue, what about U.S. coal mines that tear

the tops off mountains and run the longest trains in world history to feed the country’s 600-plus coal-fired power plants? Where is Redford on that? And hijacking the regulatory process? Look no further than the Dogwood Initiative, an obscure Victoria outfit that admits to taking about 40 per cent of its funding from U.S. sources. Its “mob the mic” campaign signed up 1,600 people to speak at the Enbridge pipeline hearings. Among the signatories are “Cave Man” and “Jonathan Seagull.” But wait, aren’t oil, power and aquaculture companies foreign funded? Certainly some are. The difference is, they create jobs. Professional protesters destroy them. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com tfletcher@blackpress.ca

Acts of kindness affect others Today is January 20, 2012, the coldest day in Chilliwack, B.C., And of all days, my small 2009 vehicle gets stuck in a snow bank, and I am unable to drive out in an unplowed city street on Bole Ave. at 11:15 a.m. Most people can stay at home due to companies closing. However, I am a community health care worker. My job is to care for the needs of the elderly, who are no longer able to look after their own needs, and help support families with support plans. I was trying to drive out of a snow bank, wearing my thin scrubs and a jacket. I watched many people drive by, not even asking if I was okay and if I needed to use their cell phone to call a tow truck. People kept
driving by, yet I needed to get back on the road; people depend on me, even if it’s a cold and blizzard-like day. Then out of the blue a man named Eddy, who was driving by, sees that I need help. He stops his older white-striped pickup truck, puts on his gloves, and without me asking or pleading for help, starts to shovel me out. Just as he finishes, two young teenage boys, 17 and 18, come out of the Bole apartments. Eddy asks them to help push my car out. Even though it’s below freezing and the winds are harsh, these three complete strangers took the time to help me get unstuck. I don’t know why so many

Progress people drive by stranded people like myself. However, I wanted to thank Eddy very much for his help shoveling me out and getting me back into the community. Also, thanks to Daniel and Brandon for helping push out my car. Because of your kindness, I was able to get back into the community and help those who are in need of my services, and for those families who depend so much on us. To all those like Eddy, Daniel and Brandon who helped people like us over the past few days, we are grateful for your kindness and for stopping and making sure we were okay.

QUESTION: My skin is feeling dry and looking quite dull… what treatment can you suggest for a quick improvement?
- Lesley, Chilliwack
ANSWER: Chemical peels are a great treatment for an instant ‘pick me up’! These peels create an even and controlled shedding of our damaged skin cells as they exfoliate and stimulate the epidermal layers. The acids used in a peel are natural occurring acids, derived from fruits and plants. They work by dissolving the “glue’ that holds these dead skin cells together. It is a very quick, pain free procedure and can be repeated as often as every 2 weeks. After the peel the skin will immediately look smoother, radiant and feel softer, all done over lunchtime! The effect of a peel is a kind of ‘spring cleaning’ for your skin!
Teri Tsamantanis, Community healthcare worker
Disgusted by irresponsible dog owners many signs posted on keeping dogs on leashes and cleaning up after them, many dog owners choose not to do this. Many dogs are running off leash and if the owner is spoken to, the almost unanimous response is that his/ her dog is safe to be off leash. Either that,
or you are greeted with a smirk and continued bad behaviour. As well, many people do not clean up after their dogs, or they will clean up and drop the feces on the trail. The trail, as of this morning, is a disgusting mess of feces which is unappealing, as well as a health
More important issues Re: MP Strahl: Let my people tweet (Progress, Jan. 12). Is the issue of “Voters’ ElectionEvening Twittering” really that important? The Honourable, Mark Strahl: Member of Parliament, Representative of the Constituents of The ChilliwackFraser Valley Riding is my voice in Ottawa, and I don’t think so. Canada sent planes and at least one ship to fight in Libya. I didn’t hear a word from Mark’s father, Chuck Strahl, about how we should support this effort. Probably more importantly though, he did not hear a word from us about what we wanted him to say in Ottawa when the war was debated in parliament. Now, as the U.S. is glaring at
Syria and Iran, it would be good if we heard from Mark, and he should hear from us. Canada’s recovery is on track. Unlike the U.S., we don’t need the distraction of foreign wars to boost economic growth. As our representative in Ottawa, Mark Strahl is the voice of his constituents. I believe Canadians are tired of endless wars. I want to believe that Mark Strahl will take this message to Parliament. I write to him constantly on this topic. Mark, now that our right to Twitter on Election Night is safe, can we please deal with the real issues? No more war! Gary Raddysh Chilliwack, BC
and safety hazard since many young children are brought to the trail. One suggestion would be that the City of Chilliwack consider banning dogs from the trail if the owners cannot exhibit adult behaviour and keep their dogs leashed and clean up after them.

Conservatives of all stripes should stick together I know Chuck Strahl usually gets a lot of support from the community, but I was wondering why he is supporting the [BC] Liberals in the upcoming byelection, when there is a Conservative candidate running. This is not a provincial election, this is a byelection. Lighten up, Christy Clark. You’re like a dog with a bone on this one; be careful not to choke on it. Politics? You’ve got to love it.

SOUTHGATE MEDICAL Southgate Mall, Chilliwack To my patients, I am retiring from full-time practice on April 30, 2012. By then, I will be 68, and will have practiced in Chilliwack for 41 years. A new physician will be joining Southgate Medical in mid-May. She will establish her own practice, at her own speed, and will not be able to take over all my patients. Some of my associates here will accept some of you, but others may have to find a new doctor. All my patient files are electronic, and will be stored electronically and securely by Southgate Medical. They can be retrieved by a signed, written request. Thank-you for a great career. Alan Whetter
Parents support board on French immersion FRENCH from Front group of Chilliwack parents have been advocating for early French immersion, which can begin as early as kindergarten. An informal study that was conducted by the Parents for Early French Immersion group, and that was presented in the public participation portion of Tuesday’s board meeting, had 71 parents in support with 105 kids ranging in age from five to not yet born. When the motion to start a feasibility study was passed, parent Travis Forstbauer was ecstatic. “The wheels are in motion now,” he said. “This is what we wanted all along.” The study will be completed no later than November 2012. kbartel@theprogress.com twitter.com/schoolscribe33

Staying Sharp For Life
Province promoting ‘sodium sense’
Brain Health Seminar Learn how to maintain memory, optimal brain function and slow or prevent the onset of Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Multiple Sclerosis and Dementia.
SODIUM from p20 calling HealthLink BC at 8-1-1. B.C. has the lowest smoking rate in Canada, but the health ministry estimates there are still 550,000 smokers in the province. More than 6,000 B.C. residents die each year from smoking-related illness, costing an estimated $605 million in direct health care costs. With health care costs taking up more than 40 per cent of the B.C. budget and cost pressures increasing as the baby boom generation retires, the province is launching another push to reduce salt consumption. A new “sodium sense� tool has been added to the health ministry’s website at www.healthyfamiliesbc.ca so people can calculate salt intake.

Amazing comedy mix
From right, Sharie Atley, Karin Fehlauer, Gwyneth Jones and Alisa van Dijk are some of the dozen or so teachers from the Chilliwack Academy of Music who will be performing in Bella Notte, a faculty concert fundraiser on Feb. 4. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS
The Ultimate Comedy Show on Friday night at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre is bound to be life-changing. The show will have everyone begging for mercy with a side-splitting mixture of sketch, stand-up, and improv comedy. Okay, it might not actually change lives, but it promises to bring the funny. As the show founder and emcee Roman Danylo quips, “If this show isn’t the most amazing thing you’ve ever seen, then you watched it incorrectly.” Danylo, with appearances on CTV’s Corner Gas and Comedy Now, as well as CBC’s Just For Laughs and Made in Canada joins a roster of hysterical and talented performers. Get ready to throw your suggestions out and buckle up for a fast-paced and spontaneous finale. The Ultimate Comedy Show, Jan. 27, 8 p.m. at the Cultch, 604.391.SHOW(7469) or online at www.chilliwackculturalcentre.ca.
A lovely evening of Italian music of academy students performing popular Italian songs in the background. Guests will then make their way into the beautiful main theatre for a full concert program that builds on the event’s Italian and nighttime themes, performed by the Academy’s talented and impressive teaching faculty. The sheer variety will delight everyone. From Mozart’s familiar Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, through Astor Piazzolla’s cheeky tango “Spring” that puts a tropical spin on Vivaldi’s celebrated concerto from The Four Seasons, and ending with
the amazing Academy Dixieland band, which brought down the house when it debuted at last year’s inaugural Faculty Concert. “At the heart of this gala event is the need to sustain support for the academy’s many community outreach programs,” said principal Graham Yates. “Not only does it offer high quality private and group lessons for its students, but the academy is also a beacon for music education in the whole community. In a faltering economy and with the last dregs of public funding drying up, without private support

Gold and Silver Coins Selling for Highest Prices in Over 30 Years Due to Weak Economy and It’s Happening Right Here in Chilliwack! By DAVID MORGAN STAFF WRITER
ICC will be placing ads in newspapers, radio and running television spots this week asking people to bring in any old silver and gold coins made before 1968 and U.S. coins made before 1970. Those that bring in their coins will be able to speak with collectors one on one and have their coins looked at by a specialist. With the help of these ICC members, offers will be made to those that have coins made before 1968. Offers will be made based on silver or gold content and the rarity of the coins. All coins made before 1968 will be examined and purchased including gold coins, silver coins, silver dollars, all types of nickels and pennies. Those that decide to sell their coins will be paid on the spot. If you are like a lot of people you might have a few old coins or even a coffee can full lying around. If you have ever wondered what they are worth now might be your chance to find out and even sell them if you choose. They could be worth a lot according to the International Coin Collectors also known as ICC. Collectors will pay a fortune for some coins and currency for their collections. If it is rare enough, one coin could be worth over $100,000 according to Eric Helms, coin collector and ICC member. One ultra rare dime, an 1894S Barber, sold for a record $1.9 million to a collector in July of 2007. While that is an extreme example, many rare and valuable coins are stashed away in dresser drawers or lock boxes around the country. The ICC and its collector members have organized a traveling event in search of all types of coins and currency. Even common coins can be worth a significant amount due to the high price of silver and gold, says Helms. Washington quarters and Roosevelt dimes can be worth many times their face value. Recent silver markets have driven the price up on common coins made of silver. Helms explains that all U.S. half dollars, quarters and dimes made before 1970 contain 90% silver and are sought after any time silver prices rise. Right now it’s a sellers market he said. The rarest coins these collectors are looking for include $20, $10, $5 and $2 1/2 gold coins and any coin made before 1850. These coins always bring big premiums according to the ICC. Silver dollars are also very sought after nowadays. Other types of items the ICC will be purchasing during this event include U.S. currency, gold bullion, investment gold, silver bars, silver rounds, proof sets, etc. Even foreign coins are sought after and will be purchased.
Here’s How It Works: Also at this event anyone can sell their gold jewellery, dental gold or anything made of gold on the spot. Gold is currently trading at record high prices. Bring anything you think might be gold and the collectors will examine, test and price it for free. If you decide to sell, you will be paid on the spot – it has been an unknown fact that coin dealers have always paid more for jewellery and scrap gold than other jewelers and pawn brokers. So whether you have one coin you think might be valuable or a large collection you recently inherited, you can talk to these collectors for free. If your’re lucky you may have a rarity worth thousands. Either way there is nothing to lose and it sounds like fun!

Student’s passion drives custom car success Robyn Clarke
“I became interested in cars at a very young age, since I learned to tie my shoes,” he says. “It was watching my father building cars in the garage that got the ball rolling. I always wanted a custom vehicle and my father encouraged it so it was a good project for us to do together. It took roughly two years to complete with trying to find the time to work on it between school and work, and also keeping it within a student’s budget. I’m very proud of my vehicle; it’s my baby. I saw that this model had a lot of potential, I just put that potential to use,” says Boylan, who was recently nominated for the Leaders of Tomorrow Award presented by the Rotary Club, and earned ‘Best Paint Job’ at the Dukes Pub car show in 2011. The expenses on customizing his Blazer reached thousands of dollars. But this bump in the road was no obstacle for him to complete this project. In the future Boylan hopes to continue building and customizing vehicles and one day open his own shop where he will specialize in customizing cars. He is currently doing an apprenticeship to become an automotive painter, and is teaching himself how to airbrush while deciding the future of his beloved Blazer.
The Progress Ever dreamt of building and owning your own custom designed vehicle? Seventeen year old G.W. Graham student Kurtis Boylan had the passion and talent to do so. Over the past two years, he has completed his customized 1997 four-door Chevrolet Blazer, which has been on the road now since May 2011. Many changes have been made to this father/ son project besides the custom two-tone black and white paint job with a viper blue stripe and 22-inch Verde Madona rims. This truck has undergone a full procedure of a custom fabricated front and rear bumper with bow tie turn signals, fiberglass stretch sub box securing two 10-inch subwoofers, touch screen head unit, fiberglass center console, Pontiac G8 hood section, 98 front end swap, aftermarket tail lights and halo head lights. Between focusing on his studies and working part time at Mertin Paint and Collision Centre – where he started out sweeping floors before moving up to prep cars for painting – he manages to make time to not only maintain his custom Blazer, but to also start new projects. Boylan is currently working on re-building and customizing a 1983 regular cab Chevy S10 pickup, which he is hoping to have ready to go by the summertime.
G.W. Graham student, Kurtis Boylan, builds custom cars like this 1997 Chevy Blazer. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS
“The main purpose of this project is a summer cruiser that will often be used for car shows,” Boylan says. “I have come across a couple of problems, but nothing that can’t be solved, and it will all be worth it when it’s picking up awards. “The work involved in this one is complete leather and fiberglass interior with a cowl hood and phantom grill. Also a complete customized pickup box with a custom
black paint job.” The road doesn’t stop there as Boylan has a number of projects lined up for after the completion of the ’83 Chevy, such as customizing his younger brother’s 2002 Chevy S10 pickup. “Right now I am driving this as a winter truck until the road and weather conditions improve for the Blazer,” he says. “This pickup will look forward to a custom interior,
body and paint job. The goal is to give my brother a truck that will look as cool as mine.” The talent within this student isn’t limited to custom cars though. In the fall of 2011, Boylan and other employees at Mertin completely customized two golf carts with 604 Autosound that were later entered in the Men’s Show. As a driven and dedicated person, he is always looking for potential projects.
Robyn Clarke is a G.W. Graham Grade 12 student, working with The Progress as part of her work experience program

Despite the traditional belief, it is actually more beneÄcial to get treated immediately after an acute injury! But healing occurs faster if you get treated right away. 1. Treatment prevents the splinting of surrounding muscles (which causes them to be tight and dysfunctional), 2. Treatment encourages the “scar formation” to lay down organized right from the beginning (rather than the therapist having to break it up later after it has already formed haphazardly) and 3. Treatment prevents tissue death to surrounding tissues. (InÅammation causes “suffocation” of the surrounding tissues, causing a tear or strain that is the size of a dime to become the size of a pizza!)

For many people, their home is their biggest asset and their prized possession. When it comes time to buy that first home, or sell your current home and upgrade, why trust someone that doesn’t have intimate knowledge of the area and local market? Having been born and raised in Chilliwack, knowing the community and various neighbourhoods comes as second nature to me. With an extensive background in Personal and Commercial Insurance Sales and Marketing, I know what it takes to market products to the right people to achieve a quick sale and for top dollar. I love working with people and seeing my clients meet their Real Estate Goals is my main focus! When Buying or Selling Property, you need an honest, hardworking REALTOR that you can count on to be there for you and to devote the time to ensure that you are totally satisfied before, during and after your transaction. I am that REALTOR; and I welcome your calls.

Pre-qualify for a mortgage - before you begin house hunting When you approach a lender for a mortgage, one of the first steps they will take to determine whether you can qualify is to request a credit report. Many consumers are surprisingly unaware of what a credit report means, why it’s important, and how significantly it can affect your options as a homebuyer. Here are some basic facts about the credit reporting system. Your credit report is a statistical analysis of your credit history, and it’s as data-oriented as a school report card. Information about how promptly and consistently you pay your debts is sent in regularly by businesses to whom you own money – banks, utilities, credit cards and cell phone companies. Lenders evaluate your credit report to determine what kind of risk they are taking in loaning you money based on the probability you will default on the loan. Your credit report will show your “credit score”. Scores range from 300 (the equivalent of an “F” on your school report card) to 850 (the equivalent of an “A+”). The higher your credit score is, the less likely you are to default on a loan. Superior scores begin at about 650 and earn you the best credit terms.
If YOU are thinking of BUYING or SELLING... Make sure YOU give us a call at 604-793-9900 & Experience the Difference! YOU will appreciate the straight forward, honest & no nonsense approach of our HARD WORKING TEAM. With over 50 years combined experience, AWARD WINNING SERVICE & MARKETING, we will deliver the results YOU need. *watch for our full page ad in The Real Estate Review every week!

Credit reports can contain errors: inaccuracies and incomplete information that might result in you being denied credit. If your score is low and you think there is an error in your credit report, it can take some time to correct, and you will have to contact the reporting agency directly. This could cause you to lose the opportunity to purchase a home that you may have had your heart set on. Pre-qualifying for a mortgage before you begin to house hunt will ensure your finances are in order when you find that perfect home. Once you have been pre-qualified and you’re in the process of house hunting, interest rates can rise and fall. In the meantime if you want assurance that the current low interest rate won’t increase, you can ask for a rate guarantee from your lender. The interest rate is set or “locked in” for a specified period of time. Be sure to ask how long that rate will last. Should interest rates decrease during this time-frame, you will receive the lower rate. Should interest rates increase, your home purchase must “complete” during the guaranteed period, in order to receive the lower rate.
If you are looking for the right Realtor® to market your home, or you’re planning on purchasing and want to know which neighbourhood will be just right for you, give me a call! Born and raised in Chilliwack and being actively involved in my community has given me extensive knowledge of the area that will be invaluable for your real estate needs. I would love to work with you! Helping You Make Your Dreams a Reality!

www.theprogress.com Hello, my name is Corny Woelders, I am one of the proud owners of Landmark Realty Chilliwack. I am married and have two great kids. I grew up in Chilliwack and graduated from C.S.S.S. (a long time ago) and then moved to Abbotsford where I met my wife of 23 years. I predominately worked in the poultry and dairy industry and also ran our own Poultry Farm. I became a Realtor® a number of years ago and worked out of the Landmark Abbotsford office. However, I found myself selling a lot of homes in Chilliwack for friends and family, so when a Landmark franchise came available, my partners and I knew that Chilliwack was the place to go. Today’s low interest rates, plus low prices, plus high inventory, equals the perfect buyers market. So come on in and visit our office and I will help you with all your real estate needs.

Progress Eric

Chiefs must make move to catch Centennials Eric J. Welsh, The Progress A crack has shown, finally, and the opportunity is there if the Chilliwack Chiefs will only take it. The Mer ritt Centennials are stumbling, ever so slightly. Their hold on second place in the Interior conference seems strong, but not as strong as it was. Yes, they still lead the Chiefs by 12 points. But Chilliwack hosts Merritt Friday night at Prospera Centre in the classic four-point game. Win that and they’re within 10. Then, the Chiefs have to take care of business with their games in hand. They’ll have five. Win ‘em all and we’ve got a race. “We have so much hockey left and teams are so evenly matched that it could go either way for any one of us,” Smyl said. “That scenario is a long reach for us to try and focus on. We’re better off looking at ourselves, making sure we’re playing better and letting the standings sort themselves out.” Fair enough. But Smyl would have to admit that catching Merritt, even if it’s a longshot, should be a priority. And if so, it has to start now. “I think it would be very important to get home seed positioning for any one of the playoffs teams,” he acknowledged. “Ever yone seems to have a better record at home. Merritt, Prince George and Vernon, they’re all extremely difficult to play in their own buildings.” The Chiefs are 1-4 against Merritt this season (with one of those losses coming in overtime).
The last head-to-head meeting was an ugly one, with the Cents clubbing the visiting Chiefs 5-1 on Jan. 14. The whole ‘catch the Centennials’ plan is unhinged if Chilliwack can’t find a way to master Merritt. “They’ve got some big guys and they’re so good defensively, committed to playing tough in their zone,” Smyl said. “So in terms of a game plan, we need to somehow be a little more determined offensively, get more second and third opportunities against them. And if we get those opportunities, we’ve got to capitalize on them.” Merritt dropped two of three last weekend on a trip to Vancouver Island. They played Penticton Wednesday night and we’re assuming they lost, because everyone does against Penticton. “We all have our bumps in the road. With the better teams they happen less frequently,” Smyl noted. “With them, who knows what’s happening, but we do know they’re a very good team.” After Friday night, Chilliwack gets its first game-in-hand out of the way Saturday, hosting the Trail Smoke Eaters. The Smokies try hard. They really do, and they’ve actually won a couple games lately. But their overall record of 8-27-1-4 makes them an inviting target. The Chiefs have taken all five head-tohead meetings against Trail this season, but Smyl hopes his crew takes nothing for granted. “Those games can be deadly if you’re not prepared,” Smyl said. “We’re in no position to take anyone lightly, and if we let up a little bit, they can beat us.”
Chilliwack Chiefs Jaret Babych and Spencer Graboski work a two-on-one rush against Westside defender Dru Morrison. Chilliwack hosts Merritt and Trail in BCHL action this weekend at Prospera Centre. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS
Chiefs shining up bowling shoes Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Fraser Valley is teaming up with the BCHL’s Chilliwack Chiefs and Scotiabank to host the kickoff to one of their most important fundraisers. Coaches, players and billet families from the local junior A hockey team will join local big and little brothers and sisters at Chillibowl Lanes (45916 Wellington Ave) for a special night launching Bowl for Kids Sake 2012. This is a free event and all
are welcome to participate or support. “The Chiefs continue to try hard to give back to the community as best they can, particularly where families are concerned, and BBBS is a huge part of the community,” said Chilliwack Chiefs marketing director Barry Douglas. This is the 23rd year for the annual event that officially starts Feb. 22 at Chillibowl Lanes.
That will be first of more than 20 sessions throughout the region, concluding Mar. 21 in Abbotsford. “The money raised through these sessions helps to support families and kids in the community,” said BBBSFV event coordinator Janis Mitchell. “It allows us to continue growing programs that are just starting to boom, like the in-school mentoring program and our Go Girls! program.”
Bowl for Kids Sake successfully raised more than $80,000 last year. BBBSFV serves families in Chilliwack, Abbotsford, Agassiz, Hope, Mission, Maple Ridge, and Pitt Meadows. To sign up or to find out more about Bowl for Kids Sake and BBBS, contact Janis Mitchell by phone at 604-8523331 or send an email to janis. mitchell@bigbrothersbigsisters.ca
Junior A circuit looks for best of the decades In October and November, junior A hockey fans voted by the thousands, helping to name the top 50 players in the BCHL’s 50 year history. Now, the league is asking
for more votes to name the top ‘Player of the Decade’ from each of the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s and 2000s. From today until the end of the regular season, fans
can vote online at www.bchl. ca by clicking on the ‘VOTE HERE’ graphic. Fans must check one name per decade to submit their ballot.
The BCHL regular season ends Mar. 11. The list of five names will be unveiled on the first night of the playoffs, which is on Mar. 16.

UFV sees Prairie’s best and worst The University of the Fraser Valley women’s basketball team faced the best and worst of the Canada West Prairie division, earning a weekend split on the road. The Cascades opened Friday with a game against the unbeaten University of Regina Cougars, the top ranked team in Canada. UFV, the tenth ranked team, fought hard but fell 78-61. The Cascades were within one point after three quarters, but the Cougars out-scored them by 16 in the fourth to pull away and improve their record to 12-0. Chilliwack natives Nicole Wierks and Kayli Sartori led UFV with 14 points apiece, with Sarah Wierks (Chilliwack) pulling down a team-high 11 rebounds. The Cascades got back to their winning
ways Saturday night, blitzing the winless University of Brandon Bobcats (0-14) 60-35. The Cascades led by 11 after one quarter and saved their best for last, exploding for 25 fourth quarter points to put the game away. Chilliwack’s Courtney Bartel and Abbotsford’s Celeste Dyck led UFV in scoring with 15 points each. Sartori led the Cascades with 10 total rebounds. The locals improved their record to 10-4, good for second spot in the Canada West Pacific division. UBC is first at 10-2. ● The University of the Fraser Valley’s men’s and women’s basketball teams will host the Trinity Western Spartans in a pair of big-venue games this weekend. Both games will be played at the Abbotsford
Entertainment and Sports Centre, a 7,000 seat arena that is home to the American Hockey League’s Abbotsford

Former Chilliwack Bruin Randy McNaught has inked a professional hockey contract with the Connecticut Whale of the American Hockey League. The deal was announced Tuesday as McNaught opted to leave the University of Calgary. McNaught had zero goals and 24 penalty minutes in 12 games with the Dinos this season, his first in the CIS after four years in the Western Hockey League. McNaught played for three WHL teams. Ex-Chilliwack Bruins GM Darrell May signed the Nanaimo native away from the BCHL’s Nanaimo Clippers in 2007-08, and he played 87 regular season and four playoff games for Chilliwack before being dealt to the Saskatoon Blades. McNaught finished his WHL career with the Vancouver Giants. He was a seventh round pick (190th overall) of the National Hockey League’s New York Rangers in the 2010 entry draft.

It was a weird feeling leaving the rink Sundayy after the Chiefs and Westside Warriors skated to a 3-3 tie. The BCHL does not use the NHL style shootout to decide ties; instead they tack on a second overtime period that is played three skaters aside. As you can imagine, with that much room outt there, ties are somewhat of a rarity. Since the shootout was scrapped the Chilliwack version of the Chiefs has played 401 regular season games and Sunday’s game was only the sixth to end in a tie. Speaking of rule changes the BCHL made some big ones last week. Gone is the 60 game schedule, replaced by a 56 game schedule plus a showcase event to kick off the season. Each team will play two games at the showcase, which will count in the standings, leaving 54 which games (27 home games) for each team going forward). The reason for the change was financial. Reducing the schedule will allow teams to eliminate some non-weekend games that are tougher sells while also eliminating some travel costs. The move seems a little bit drastic to me, but I don’t pay the bills for the teams that voted for this change. Based on some comments that have been made by some teams since the change, it’s obvious it was not agreed upon unanimously. Some teams have stated they were opposed to the change, and that rather than reduce the number of games, teams should have been more creative in finding ways to bring people into their buildings for the tougher to sell midweek games. week I wonder which side of the fence season ticket holders around the league fall on this one. Thirty home games per season seemed like a good number to me. Another change starting next season sees the Chiefs back in the same division as Langley, Surrey and Coquitlam. The rivalries of yesteryear will be back, and I think fans will enjoy that. Joining these teams in the Mainland division will be the Prince George Spruce Kings. Strange but true. This may not be that big a deal to Prince George. Since Williams Lake and Quesnel left the league there is no way to make their travel schedule easy. But for the other four teams in the division, it’s a bit of a financial kick. The obvious geographical choice would have been Merritt instead of Prince George. Two home games for the Chiefs this weekend. Merritt is here Friday, Trail on Saturday. The Sardis secondary school Drumline will The be at Friday’s game and Saturday’s is Cancerr Awareness night. Awareness It’s also parents weekend, so you’ll see manyy of the Chiefs’ parents around the rink. Feedback can be sent to jb@chilliwackchiefs.net.

ARMSTRONG Anthony Charles
Sept. 7, 1951-Jan. 17, 2012 The powerful, creative, talented, generous spirit that was Tony passed peacefully on Tuesday 17 January at Cascade Hospice in Chilliwack. While Tony wanted to live, he knew the catastrophe of pancreatic cancer. He made each step easy on family and friends by accepting his medical condition, getting his affairs in order, and keeping his humour and insight razor sharp. He had closed his company FUBAR Electric and passed the torch for his many projects. Left to miss him most are his family: wife Karen Saenger, mom Phyllis, brothers and their families (Jim and Eileen, Shannon, Jeff, Brendan and Sara; Jo, Owen; Andy and Marilyn, Clayton, Kody; Gerry and Caroline), dad-in-law Adolf, sisters-in-law and their families (Susan and Phill, Ellen and Cameron, Maya, Jessie and Anja). Tony was predeceased by his dad Bob, sister Rosalie, mom-in-law Lotte, and nephew Morgan. Seldom reverent, Tony was a man of ever-ready contradictions: uncomplicated yet complex, tough but soft, exuberant yet cautious, shy yet engaging, critical and compassionate. He brought the same curiosity, wonder, and affection to the care of small critters as to the workings of the universe. Special thanks to Drs. Winston and Brown at the Abbotsford Regional Hospital and Dr. Bull at the Cascade Hospice for their personal attention and care. Nurses too numerous to mention will never be forgotten for the gentle and dignified way in which they treated Tony. Please, no flowers. Donations to Tony’s cat friends at the Chilliwack Safe Haven (49843 Chilliwack Central Road, V2P 6H3) or the Chilliwack Hospice Society (45360 Hodgins Ave., V2P 1P5) would be truly appreciated. A celebration of life will be held at 2:00 pm on Friday 27 January at the Woodlawn Mt. Cheam funeral home (45865 Hocking Ave., Chilliwack). Reception to follow at the St. Thomas Anglican Church Hall (46048 Gore Ave.).
